Seeing Wang Guangyu nodding, Ren Guang hurried away without thinking. Looking at Ren Guang's excited back, Wang Guangyu shook his head and smiled bitterly. After so many years of hard guerrilla life in the ice and snow, in order to survive, Going down, people are forced to become bandits. Although the current environment has been greatly improved, this problem of wanting to make a fortune when seeing foreign wealth can never be changed.
But think about it again, isn't it the same for me? When I opened the Mongolian warehouse and saw the tens of thousands of bags of flour stored there, didn't I eat and drink them all in the same way? But now I can only smile bitterly and return. Wang Guangyu at the venue did not expect what kind of surprise Ren Guang would bring to him.
Of course, this surprise will have to wait until an hour later. Wang Guangyu, who now has little thought about how much money his logistics minister will make, will know. At the moment, Wang Guangyu's thoughts are more on breaking through the national border. Later, the battle plan was changed.
None of the division and brigade commanders spoke against Wang Guangyu's new ideas. However, none of the division and brigade commanders paid much attention to the battle with the 23rd Division. At present, Chen Hanzhang's command to the north, Zhanyu has been captured, and apart from leaving one unit to attack the Tuquan line on the flank of the 51st Division to the north, the main force is forcibly attacking the Zalut Banner line.
As long as Chen Hanzhang's troops take the Zalut Banner to the northern Shandong front line and send troops out of the Tongliao front line, not only will the connection between the entire 51st Division and the 23rd Division be completely cut off, but they will also be deployed south of Xinjing The various divisions of the Japanese army probably have no intention of taking care of the war in Rehe and Xing'anxi.
We must know that once Tongliao is lost, Xinjing's entire southwest defense line is in danger of being breached at any time, and the anti-alliance forces that seize Tongliao's front line can also attack the puppet Fengtian Province at any time and cut off the Zhongchang Railway south of Xinjing. Tongliao, currently the center point of the Kwantung Army's entire western front, is even more dangerous to the Kwantung Army's strategic situation than losing Xinjing.
As long as the Kwantung Army does not figure out Chen Hanzhang's next combat action, even if Xing'anxi and Rehe are in a mess, the Kwantung Army may not have the courage to mobilize several divisions stationed south of Xinjing for reinforcements. This will undoubtedly greatly reduce the need for detour troops. The pressure in the next battle.
Now with the cooperation of Chen Hanzhang's troops in the north, plus the cavalry, one armored brigade each, and a fully motorized reinforced infantry division, we have almost no strength to deal with the 23rd Division with such a small number of troops. Nothing to worry about.
For several division and brigade commanders, the most critical thing now is who should command this roundabout force. Judging from the current strength mobilized by Wang Guangyu, this roundabout detachment must be commanded by at least one regiment-level cadre, but it is very difficult to Obviously, with the current impending war, none of them is willing to let their capable generals be used by others.
After a long silence, the commanders of the armored brigade and the cavalry brigade both looked at Li Mingfeng, the commander of the first division. Their meaning was very clear. We do not have a regiment-level organization in our hands, only five cavalry battalions plus A heavy mortar battalion, a motorized infantry regiment plus a tank regiment and a directly affiliated armored reconnaissance battalion, a total of only two regiments of organic units.
Originally, there were only two military commanders at the regiment level. If a regiment-level military commander was sent out, it would have a great impact on the next operations of the army. Now, your first division is the backbone of the roundabout force and has the largest number of troops. A division plus an attached infantry regiment, not counting the artillery regiment attached to the division, have four regiment-level military chiefs. There are four infantry regiment commanders alone. If you don't have this person in your division, then who can come up with it?
Seeing the two old comrades turning their attention to him, Li Mingfeng touched his nose. Although he knew what these two guys were thinking, he was unwilling to speak. The war was imminent, and the position of the regiment-level military chief was very important. Importantly, no one would be happy if a group leader was transferred at this time.
Especially in the next battle, his own division will definitely be the leading unit. He is not willing to transfer the commander of a main regiment. Moreover, the transferred unit and commander have already stated that they will leave the customs within the customs. After the troops reunited, he was temporarily handed over to the command of the troops leaving the customs, which made him even more reluctant. Who would be a good boy willing to sacrifice himself in someone else's temple?
After quickly calculating the number of regimental commanders in his hands, Li Mingfeng shook his head and turned his attention to the armored brigade commander. He was unwilling to let go of his subordinates who were capable enough, but who were not capable even if they were given command, he would not be able to command them. This kind of regiment-level synthetic detachment.
In Li Mingfeng's opinion, it is best for the regimental military officer to be from the armored brigade. They are originally infantry-tank coordination units and have more experience in commanding this kind of combat. If nothing else, he has not always boasted about their infantry skills. A corps commander can command both tank and infantry units, and he can also drive a tank. In this case, there is no need for such a person.
It's just that Li Mingfeng is being cunning. The armored brigade commander is not given for free. No matter in which army, the person who takes the position of a senior commander like the division brigade commander is given for free. On the battlefield, it is not just bravery that can As soon as Li Mingfeng looked at the problem solver, people understood what this guy was planning.
The armored brigade commander faced the gaze he cast and hated it. You have three infantry regiment commanders plus an attached infantry regiment. Those are not like human sperm. In the May assessment of the military region, this regiment-level contract tactic can be They are all excellent, but you old boy has nothing to lose. I am just an infantry regiment commander, so you still care about me. It's so unkind.
After secretly cursing Li Mingfeng, who in his eyes was very unreasonable, the armored brigade commander turned his attention to Wang Guangyu again. He was very worried that Wang Guangyu would point his finger at him. After all, it was Bu Tan who Regiment-level commanders for coordinated operations really belong to their own troops and are selected from their own brigade.
If he had chosen someone else, the armored brigade commander wouldn't care, but he couldn't let go of the motorized infantry commander at this time. The armored brigade is a mixed infantry-tank force. If the infantry commander is transferred at this juncture, the commander of the motorized infantry regiment would be transferred. The armored brigade's combat effectiveness had dropped by half. The brigade commander, who was really unwilling to have his beloved general transferred away, glared back at Li Mingfeng after seeing Wang Guangyu ignoring him.
Looking at the sparkling glances between several division and brigade commanders, Wang Guangyu knew very well what they were thinking. After all, he had also stepped out of the position of division commander, so he could not grasp the thoughts of his subordinates. If you don't live up to it, then it's useless to be someone else's superior.
After the commander-in-chief received a request for help from the former commander of the Fourth Army and the current political commissar of the military region, he transferred himself to the Fourth Army. The acting commander of the Fifth Army also seemed reluctant to release him. Good cadres, especially He is a military commander, and no one is willing to let him go at this critical moment when the war is approaching.
However, Wang Guangyu had no intention of selecting the commander of the roundabout detachment among several divisions and brigades. Although his roundabout unit had been strengthened, it was fighting against the 23rd Division and had to be on guard against the Kwantung Army at all times. Several divisions deployed in Jinzhou Province and Fengtian Province of the puppet Manchuria are ready for reinforcements.
Whether Chen Hanzhang can capture Tongliao and contain possible Japanese reinforcements is a question for the future. However, when he is deploying for combat, if he does not prepare for Japanese reinforcements from other directions, that is absolutely impossible. Who can be 100% sure of what happens on the battlefield? Be sure, if you don't think carefully in advance, you will only suffer the biggest loss.
And Wang Guangyu is not the kind of person who puts all his hopes on others, whether that person is a friendly army or his own brother army. It's not that he doesn't believe in his own army, but that he prefers the kind of person who will take the initiative. The feeling of having power in your own hands.
The railway system in Northeast China is too developed. Both Chifeng and Chengde have direct railway connections with the Japanese-occupied areas. Once the Kwantung Army makes up its mind to reinforce, the speed will be extremely fast. Adjusting a main regiment commander at this time will inevitably affect The combat effectiveness of a regiment will have a considerable adverse impact on the next battle.
Therefore, the military commander of this roundabout force that was separated from his own army did not intend to be directly transferred from various units. Moreover, this person must not only have certain command capabilities, but more importantly, he must have a calm mind. If he acts alone without the main force, any small mistake will bring disaster. In fact, he had already thought about this candidate when he made up his mind to change the deployment.
Several division and brigade commanders stared at each other here, but he just pretended not to see it, until Li Mingfeng, who couldn't bear the murderous looks from his two old comrades, took the initiative and said: "Commander, look at this As for the commander of the bypass detachment, which unit would be more suitable to be selected from? Well, I promise that as long as you transfer anyone from our division, I will definitely let him go."
"However, are you thinking about it? Our division is the main force of the roundabout force. In the next stage, our division is the main force of the battle. If a regimental military commander is transferred at this time, I am afraid it will affect the combat effectiveness of the unit. It may even affect our next phase of operations."
"Let's see if it is more appropriate to select this candidate from other troops. Although the quality of cadres in other troops is not as good as ours, well, it is only a little bit different, but it is not too different. The distance is still very limited, especially for commanding this kind of mechanized unit. The commanding ability of the combined force is no worse than that of the cadres of our first division. Selecting this candidate from among them will just bring out the strengths of certain units."
As soon as Li Mingfeng spoke, the other two brigade commanders breathed a sigh of relief. It was rare for this guy to consciously take over such a thing, but what he said later made the two brigade commanders feel more and more uncomfortable. Since your division is the main force in the entire army, and we two are the breadwinners, your cadres must be stronger than ours. You must be exaggerating too much.
The last few words made the two of them almost bursting with anger. The two of them cursed at the same time and raised their middle fingers at Li Mingfeng. People can be shameless, but how can they be so shameless? While putting others down and raising yourself up, you still don't forget that the trouble is moving eastward. You, Li Mingfeng, are so shameless.
