Although he didn't want to speak too harshly, after hesitating for a while, Yang Jicai decided to make his words clear: "You are a veteran, and you are an old-timer to me. You have been dealing with the Japanese army for much longer than me. You should We know what will happen if the Japanese army jumps over the wall in a hurry."
"You should know that relying on the superior ground and air firepower can severely damage the Japanese army, but even if it is to the point of breaking out, they will never give up the plan. We have been dealing with the Japanese army for so many years, when have we ever encountered something different? The Japanese army who retreated after the war, when did they encounter the Japanese army who retreated with only broken muscles and bones?"
"You have fought with the Japanese army for so many years, and you should know better than me how crazy the Japanese army is. Once the 7th Division is in a desperate situation, it changes its original offensive line and gives up its original control over the entire Afghan Army. The plan to invade the Ruhorqin Banner and occupy the western Ujimqin Banner will penetrate directly into the flanks of our army on the Linxi battlefield of the left and right banners of Bahrain. What should we do?"
"If the Japanese army really changes its original combat plan and leaves only one regiment commander here to take charge, will it be able to adjust its deployment in time? After all, this is a matter involving joint operations of multiple arms. The decision depends on you, the commander-in-chief of the theater. , so it is not a good choice for you to leave your command position at this time."
After Yang Jicai said these words, he closed his mouth. This is his habit. He only does what he should do as the chief of staff at the moment. He is not a political commissar and will not interfere in too many things. In fact, to be honest, for For Yang Jicai, the position of chief of staff is not what he wants to do. He would rather be a battalion commander and charge at the front than be the chief of staff for the man in front of him. At least it's not a pleasant thing.
Because when he was working at the headquarters, he knew very well the character of the commander of the Aruhorqin Banner Defense Area who was transferred from other fronts in the rear by the headquarters. He knew that this subordinate was very difficult to do. Yang Jicai was not afraid of a leader with character and resisted The senior commander of the United Nations has no character. This is a war period, and a weak and opinionated person cannot be a military commander.
It's just that this guy has such a great personality. He has the final say wherever he goes, and once he makes up his mind, even nine bulls can't pull him back. Although he was transferred from the position of deputy commander of the Second Division, In terms of personality, he is clearly not the type to be a deputy.
When he was transferred to the Second Division as deputy division commander, this guy would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. He just wants to be the top leader, not the deputy. He would rather be the commander of any military division than the deputy division commander of the main division. He would not go at all costs, and would even rather stay and continue to be his regimental commander than become the deputy division commander.
Later, his old superior, Political Commissar Li of the military region, became angry. He called him to the headquarters and scolded him. Fearing the pressure from his old superior, he awkwardly took office. After taking office, he and the current leader of the Second Division The division commander couldn't get him to go with him because he didn't regard himself as a deputy at all.
Although the commander of the Second Division is also a strong person, he cannot suppress his deputy. He, the deputy commander in charge of training, has the final say in combat. Both of them have the final say. There are thorny guys everywhere, but if you put them in a division, they are almost like fire and ice.
In terms of combat, it doesn't matter that the two of them have the same opinions. If they differ, then let's quarrel. Fortunately, the political commissar of the second division has enough prestige, many methods, and flexible enough skills to force these two stubborn donkeys into a trough.
Inside, otherwise, the Second Division would be in chaos.
According to general regulations, the division commander is the chief military officer and should listen to the division commander on operations. However, the deputy division commander insisted on stepping in and demanding that his opinions be implemented. As a result, the troops below did not know who to listen to.
The Second Division, which was supposed to be the first-class main division, did not perform very well in the early stages of the battle in Nanxing'an.
Among those who could serve as the main division commanders in the Anti-Japanese Alliance, some were good scumbags, some were not outstanding in battle, and Wang Deyao was the thorn in the side who had the final say. But the division commander of the Second Division was not given in vain. He had to say it.
After all, he is a military officer and can agree to it. As a deputy division commander, he is in charge of training. If he stretches his hand too far, he will not do it.
The chief and deputy commanders were at odds, and the troops below were scratching their heads. The intensity of the attack was somewhat inadequate. At that time, Wang Guangyu was fully preparing for a roundabout operation. In fact, it was the commander of the second division who was commanding the battle on the front line. The chief and deputy commanders were at odds with each other.
, the troops naturally fought awkwardly.
After Du Kaishan was transferred to the Nanxing'an battlefield and learned about this situation, he adopted a quite effective method. In dealing with this matter, Du Kaishan, who was a thorn in his own skin, still had many ideas to repair similar people.
In fact, trying to solve this problem is just a matter of giving Wang Deyao a chance. As long as he takes charge alone, the problem will disappear.
Moreover, this guy also has the ability to take charge of his own affairs. Among the deputy division-level cadres in the entire army, this guy's ability to grasp the battlefield is absolutely one of the best. If it were not for the strict regulations on the promotion of regiment-level cadres, this guy would not be able to do this.
Ji Ben should be promoted to division commander during this expansion.
In order to solve the problem of the Second Division, and also to solve the battlefield need to prevent the enemies of Nanxing'an from dispersing and breaking through, Du Kaishan made certain adjustments to the attack sequence of the Second Division, and transferred two main battalions from the Second Division, and then transferred them from other units.
The two battalions and some of the attached infantry artillery formed a mobile detachment, which was specially used as a mobile force on the battlefield to prevent the Japanese army from making a dispersed breakout when the battle situation was unfavorable.
As its name suggests, the Nanxing'an battlefield is located at the northern end of the southern foothills of the Daxing'an Mountains. Once the Japanese army breaks through with a small force, it will cause great trouble in the follow-up clearing. Du Kaishan's move is also needed on the battlefield. Wang Deyao will be transferred to this detachment.
The detachment leader was dedicated to encircling the Japanese troops breaking out from several directions. Only then did he straighten out the command order of the second division, and the performance of the second division became better and better.
This guy's sense of smell on the battlefield is extremely sharp. Putting him in this position can be said to be a good use of his talents. Moreover, Wang Deyao did not disappoint Du Kaishan's expectations. Relying on his keen sense of smell on the battlefield, he repeatedly stopped the five surrounded people.
The remnants of the 11th Division conducted a breakout operation.
On the first day when he was transferred to the Aruhorqin Banner, this guy shined even more. After the main force of Du Kaishan went south, he was left to cooperate with the follow-up military region troops in the final clearing of the remnants of the 51st Division. In one fell swoop, he
On the southern battlefield of Nanxing'an, the most important remnants of the 51st Division's breakout were encircled.
Not only did they annihilate all the breakout personnel, but they also captured Li Wangyin, the commander of the 51st Division who refused to commit suicide. Although Li Wangyin was the commander of the Japanese Lieutenant General Division, he was not an authentic Japanese. He also had a His special identity is that he was the former crown prince of North Korea, which means he is the only authentic heir to the North Korean royal family.
When the former North Korean prince was asked to go to the front line to fight against the Kwantung Army, there was a huge controversy even within the Japanese base camp, especially since the 51st Division to which he belonged was in a very mysterious position. The controversy became even greater. Once the 50th The First Division, to be precise, if something unexpected happens to the former North Korean crown prince, it will be a very good thing for Japan's rule over North Korea.
The death of the two Korean kings caused a big stir in Korea, which is now a Japanese colony. If this person, in the eyes of all Koreans, including those who serve Japan wholeheartedly, has the blood of the Korean royal family. If there were any accidents, especially if there were any accidents on the battlefield, the Koreans who believed that the Japanese were killing people with a knife would definitely not let it go.
Although the Japanese, who had personally killed two Korean kings and suppressed numerous Korean resistances, did not care at all if the Koreans resisted because of any accidents that happened to the former crown prince, the current Japanese Army Lieutenant General, but At this delicate moment, the Japanese are absolutely not willing to have any problems in their rear, especially in North Korea, where their rule has been basically stable.
Within the Kwantung Army, before the war, there was the idea of transferring this special Army Lieutenant General back. They wanted to select another candidate to take over the position of division commander before the 51st Division went into the battlefield, but a division Commanders are not easy to produce, especially division commanders of the Japanese Army, who have to be personally judged by the Emperor. The current war situation is extremely tense, and the 51st Division has been thrown in before a suitable person has been selected. battlefield.
After the 51st Division was divided and encircled, the Kwantung Army also tried to send planes to kill this man with a special status. Once he died in battle or was captured, it would have a great impact on the international community. The division commander rescued him, but it was a pity that the planes sent out basically never came back, so he had no choice but to give the order. The remnants of the 51st Division tried their best to cover this man who was on the battlefield for the first time and was unlucky to be killed. The Lieutenant General of the encircling army broke through.
When the division commander still maintained a brigade of troops around him to break through the siege when the 51st Division's active strength was basically exhausted, the mobile detachment led by Wang Deyao happened to make a mistake. Then, when a brigade around him was dispersed, the former Korean prince, who although he was a Japanese lieutenant general, obviously did not want to die for the Japanese, was immediately captured.
The headquarters attaches great importance to this prisoner with an extremely special identity. Wang Deyao has made a great contribution by being able to capture this man alive. Although the Japanese army's effective strength was basically exhausted at that time, the remaining ones had no intention to fight and were single-minded. He only wanted to break out of the encirclement and no longer cared about the prince. After the adjutant who supervised him died in the battle, there was no one to urge him to commit suicide.
But the remnants of the 51st Division thought of many ways to cover the prince's breakout. Even when there were only a few remaining troops, they did not hesitate to use all their last strength to confuse the anti-Union encirclement troops and consciously mess up the entire battlefield. Under chaotic circumstances.
He was still able to bite the breakout troops led by the lieutenant general, disperse them in the shortest time, and capture the lieutenant general's division commander alive, which also shows that Wang Deyao's sense of smell on the battlefield is still quite keen. Especially his ability to grasp and observe fighter aircraft is quite good.
In fact, with Wang Deyao's character, he is not suitable to serve as deputy division commander. However, according to the regulations of the Anti-Japanese League, regiment-level cadres must serve as deputy division commander or division chief of staff for more than half a year before becoming a division commander. Otherwise, they will not be promoted at all, even if they are promoted to division commander. It is not possible to transfer from the main force to that local military region or serve as the commander of the military region.
It is precisely because Wang Deyao has a more outstanding personality but is still very capable that the headquarters still did not transfer him to the local military region and stayed in the main force. Considering his pouty donkey personality, after careful consideration, he He was then transferred to the second division where the political commissar's coordination skills were outstanding.
Because none of the main division commanders on the front line is a good person. If there is no political commissar who is good at coordination and adheres to principles to help him straighten out the relationship with his official position, it will not be a good idea to put this thorn in any division. The decision, at least the disagreement between the chief and deputy chief officers, will affect the combat effectiveness of the army.
