Looking at Ma Chunsheng, who frowned more and more after receiving the telegram, Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming looked at each other and knew that the telegram from the headquarters might not be too optimistic. After reading the telegram, Ma Chunsheng wanted to hand over the telegram in his hand.
When he continued to circulate it to Liu Changshun, Liu Changshun shook his head and did not answer. [.Com text]
From Ma Chunsheng's expression after receiving the telegram, Liu Changshun, who had already judged that the headquarters' reply was not optimistic, looked at Ma Chunsheng and said: "Old Ma, does the headquarters still disagree with my opinion and insist that our entire regiment stay in Xingshan?"
Fortress, waiting for the arrival of the group?"
Ma Chunsheng put down the telegram in his hand and did not answer Liu Changshun. Instead, after pondering for a while, he said to Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming beside him: "Send the message to the commander again and insist on our decision. The commander is as high as the sky as the emperor is far away.
The situation here is not well understood. We are on the front line and we must stick to our plan as long as it is correct."
"There are not many enemies defending Luobei now. But once the news spreads that we have captured Xingshan Fortress, the Japanese army will easily judge our next move. And once our strategic intention is exposed, the Japanese army will gain wealth as quickly as possible."
Jin, Tongjiang, Suibin, and even Heihe quickly mobilized reinforcements. Even though the Fourth Division is still concentrated in Jiamusi, there is still a Japanese First Division in the Heihe area."
"The Japanese army built a large number of interconnected national defense roads in the so-called northern border counties, which itself has the advantage of mechanization. But we rely on two legs and walk all mountain roads, so the speed is simply incomparable. If we delay for a day
By the time we arrive at Luobei, perhaps the Japanese reinforcements will arrive in front of us."
"For such a large project as the construction of Xingshan Fortress, the Japanese army will not ignore it. Once the Xingshan Fortress loses contact, the Japanese army will definitely find something abnormal here. It is not far from Jiamusi. Judging from the consistent reaction of the Japanese army, its
The reinforcements should be coming very quickly. That’s why the commander asked us all to stay in the Xingshan area and wait for the arrival of the first group.”
"The commander's concerns are not unnecessary and are very realistic. However, the commander who can only rely on maps to direct operations has not considered the geographical conditions of this area."
"Judging from the location here, the northern part of the Zhengdi Mountain area is rolling virgin forest, and the southern part is the endless swamp depression north of the Songhua River. Only the Zhandi Mountain area is the transitional hills and hills between mountains and depressions, and only the Guanmenzuizi Pass
Only then can we pass smoothly.”
"The Japanese army can use the terrain here to block the enemy from the north, and we can also use the terrain here to block the Japanese army from the south. For strategic needs and restricted by the terrain, the Japanese army built from Jiamusi to Luobei, Suibin
The highway can only pass from here."
"As long as we leave some of our troops to block the Mengmenzui Pass, and use the mines we carry with us from our own arsenal, even if the Japanese army comes in as a group and stops them for two to three days, there won't be any problem. Unless they come from the flanks.
, circuitous through the primeval forest.”
"The number of Japanese and puppet troops in the northern direction of Luobei is not large. If our main force takes the opportunity to attack, there is no possibility of reinforcing Xingshan. That's why I think that we should leave a capable force and use the Japanese army
The fortifications that have been constructed can completely block the Japanese reinforcements here."
"What's more, judging from its size, it is difficult to say that Xingshan Fortress will be under the command of the Fourth Division. This fortress is large enough to deploy a brigade or even more Japanese troops. I estimate that it is most likely to be under the control of Kanto.
It is directly under the jurisdiction of the military headquarters."
"The communication with the Kwantung Army headquarters may not be carried out every day. According to my understanding of the Japanese army, it should be carried out every two to three days. Even if the Fourth Division of Jiamusi receives information about changes in Xingshan Fortress, etc.
After asking for instructions from the Kwantung Army Headquarters and then making a circle and coming back, it should be at least two days later."
"The Fourth Division has no jurisdiction over Xingshan Fortress, but Luobei, Suibin, Tongjiang, and Fujin counties in the north are all within its defense zone. Once they judge our strategic intentions, they can ask for instructions.
The Kwantung Army headquarters dealt with the Xingshan Fortress while dispatching troops to besiege my troops heading north."
"So I think we must go north as soon as possible. We must rush to react before the fourth division. Moreover, the main force is still concentrated in Jiamusi and has not returned to their respective stations. We must quickly seize Luobei, Foshan and Guanmenzuizi Mountains.
Although the nearest and most convenient route from Luobei to Jiamusi can be contained, the Japanese army can mobilize reinforcements from Fujin, Suibin, Tongjiang and other places in the east."
At this point, Ma Chunsheng gritted his teeth and took out his pen, drafted another telegram, handed it to the operator and said: "Send a telegram to the headquarters again, saying that we stick to our point of view. We must seize Luobei before the Japanese army reacts."
, Foshan, otherwise it will be difficult for us to open a passage to the north."
Just when the operator took the telegram drafted by Ma Chunsheng, looked at the stubborn new chief of staff strangely, and turned around to send the telegram, Wang Xiaoming took the telegram and glanced at it quickly.
He signed his name again. Liu Changshun signed without hesitation without even looking at it.
After signing, Liu Changshun said to the operator: "When you interpret the message, your tone should be as soft as possible, but the chief of staff's intention must be expressed clearly. If you don't express it clearly, I will punish you."
When the operator heard Liu Changshun's request, he smiled bitterly, but said nothing more. He turned around and went to send the telegram. After the operator left, Liu Changshun picked up the telegram sent by the headquarters and read it carefully, and thought about it.
After that, he slapped his thigh hard and said: "Lao Wang, Lao Ma, the commander and the chief of staff are worried that we don't have enough troops to defend and the Japanese army will take advantage of it."
"In this way, many of the workers we just rescued are soldiers who were captured in the customs. Although they are a little weaker, their basic military qualities are still there. After eating enough, they can still fight and block attacks. We have what we have on hand
There are a lot of ready-made weapons and ammunition that have been captured. Can we distribute them to them and temporarily form a few companies?"
"These people have suffered a lot from the Japs. I think they probably all hate the Japs now. When it comes to fighting, there will never be any ambiguity. What's more, the commander ordered us to attack Xingshan Street, a place full of coal mines.
I'm afraid the reason for the large-scale fortress being built by the Japanese is not all because of the order.
"At least half of the reason is for these laborers who can be used as supplementary soldiers. We issue them weapons and integrate them into the army. It just advances what the commander wants to do. In this way, we can let them
By adapting our troops in advance, we can also increase the strength of the troops after the main force leaves."
"You also saw the man just now. He is my old company commander, a serious veteran who participated in the Long March. His military quality is absolutely top-notch. If he hadn't been injured during the Japanese raids, he would have protected the common people who were covering him from danger.
He was massacred and exchanged his life for the lives of ordinary people, and he would never be captured."
"He and the more than 100 people in gray military uniforms who were rescued by Lao Wang from the prisoner of war camp on Xingshan Street and next to the Puppet Manchukuo Police Station are all captured personnel of the 18th Group Army and the New Fourth Army. These people have absolutely nothing.
Question. I know my old company commander. He will never rebel. Otherwise, he would not be sent here to do hard labor."
"We can have people immediately screen the number of prisoners of war among the workers, and then transfer some capable personnel to form some temporary companies, and transfer a group of deputy company commanders from our troops to cooperate with the remaining battalion to serve as security."
Regarding Liu Changshun's proposal, Wang Xiaoming and Ma Chunsheng looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes. Liu Changshun's attention was indeed good. It solved the problem of insufficient troops left behind after the main force left. It also did not delay the main force's attack.
action.
Since Liu Changshun's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone, a few people did not delay at all. After rushing back to Xingshan Fortress, Wang Xiaoming immediately organized political workers to screen the workers. However, the number of workers was too huge.
More than 20,000 people were rescued at the Xingshan Fortress construction site alone, not counting the more than 10,000 people rescued from the coal mines around Xingshan Street.
Under the situation that it was impossible to screen all the workers in a short period of time, Wang Xiaoming was in a hurry and focused on the workers rescued in Xingshan Fortress. Because their files were very complete, especially those who were under special custody.
Special workers who were prisoners of war have extremely complete files. They can be easily identified.
Due to the number of weapons seized, there is no need to screen too much. More than 300 rifles and machine guns were seized at the Xingshan Fortress construction site, plus more than 100 rifles seized by Wang Xiaoming on Xingshan Street. With these weapons, more than 400 people have been
Enough.
Just as the screening was ending and weapons had begun to be distributed to the screened prisoners of war, the third telegram from the headquarters also arrived. This time the headquarters' telegram was extremely tough and left almost no room for negotiation. Judging from the tone of the telegram, Liu Changshun was almost
I could tell at a glance that this telegram was definitely drafted by Yang Zhen himself.
Putting down the telegram in his hand, Ma Chunsheng, who was stubborn and unambiguous, picked up a pen and drafted the third telegram. Compared with the previous two relatively simple telegrams, Ma Chunsheng's telegram this time was very procrastinating. Not only did he state again
After understanding his own reasons in this regard, he will also report the solutions to the shortage of left-behind troops.
After reading the telegram drafted by Ma Chunsheng, Wang Xiaoming signed the telegram, handed the telegram to Liu Changshun and said with a wry smile: "I say, Old Ma, your tone this time is a bit too much. I'm afraid this telegram is not for the commander."
The police tried to calm down their anger, but instead of doing so, they only added fuel to the fire. Counting this time, this is the third time we have disobeyed orders."
Regarding Wang Xiaoming's worries, Liu Changshun sneered and said, "Old Wang, what do you have to worry about? If the commander doesn't have such magnanimity, given the complex composition of our army, let alone
If you win the battle, you will be reduced to a pot of porridge first."
"Tell me about our army. There are former Japanese prisoners of war, but they are not part of the same faction. They are divided into the Sichuan Army, the Guangxi Army, and the Northwest Army. It is a mess. Some people even dislike each other in the prisoner-of-war camp.
.”
"Those who are from the Anti-Japanese Alliance are not part of an army. There are also those who are part of the 18th Group Army, but they are not part of a division. You said that according to the complexity of our army, if you can give back so many years ago, you will hit me. I will hit you."
, people who have been killed in a bloody storm are gathered together to create a powerful monster like us. Do you think the commander can be too small-minded?"
Although he was a little worried about the consequences of sending this telegram, Wang Xiaoming still agreed with Liu Changshun's words. The commander was indeed very broad-minded. Although he only joined the army after accompanying the commander-in-chief to Lao Heidingzi's secret camp.
, but I also admire the commander quite a lot.
In addition to being able to fight, the most admirable thing about the commander is the word "gong". Whether he is promoting cadres or using cadres, he never uses their origin as a criterion to measure cadres. Except for political cadres because of their special
Apart from sex, the promotion standards for other cadres are very simple. If you have the ability, go up. If you don’t have the ability, don’t sit in the trap.
Not to mention anything else, no one in the army is dissatisfied with this point alone. This is possible precisely because the commander has an open mind. Without such magnanimity, it would be difficult to fight such a mess.
A group of people formed a very capable force.
