Du Kaishan adjusted his deployment, but the commander and political commissar of the Ninth Division over there quit. The Ninth Division suffered the heaviest casualties among the divisions on the front line, but it was also the one with the slowest progress. Now it is to let
They gave up their original goals and went to attack others. How could the division commanders and political commissars of the Ninth Division be willing to do this?
The commander of the Ninth Division, Wang Minggui, and the political commissar He Zhikun jointly asked for instructions from the column several times, but received the toughest answer. Not only was the request to continue to implement the original plan not approved, but Du Kaishan, who was annoyed because of the poor progress, was also rejected.
A slap in the face.
Putting down the phone in his hand, Wang Minggui looked at the three regiment leaders beside him who were looking at him expectantly. He threw his hat and said angrily: "Why are you looking at me? Follow the orders of the column. Who told us to fucking
I didn't do well in fighting before, but now I'm just trying to do something for others."
"You are upset, and I, the division commander, are even more upset. What the hell is this war about? There are more than 20 divisions participating in the battle on the entire front. So far, our division has suffered the most casualties, but has made the smallest progress.
After being beaten like this, I have lost all my face. Now that I have become a supporting role and know how ugly my face is, what the hell have I been doing?"
Seeing that Wang Minggui's nose was not a nose and his face was not a face, he immediately scolded his subordinates. Although he was quite annoyed because the mission had been adjusted, as the political commissar He Zhikun still had to come out to smooth things over. As the division commander, Wang Minggui could not stay.
When he reprimanded his subordinates face to face, he, as a political commissar, still had to leave some leeway.
He Zhikun kicked Wang Minggui from below, indicating that it was time to calm down his anger, and said to the three equally reluctant captains: "No matter how the column adjusts its deployment, we must implement it even if we understand it, and we must implement it even if we don't understand it. Superiors
Adjusting the deployment is based on the intention of the superiors. As subordinates, we must not only follow the orders, but also execute them well."
"To be honest, our Ninth Division's fight before was not very good. But just one day's battle can't explain anything. If you have a good meal, you are not afraid of being late. I think as long as we fight better and better in the subsequent battles, we will show that our Ninth Division
I think the superior leaders will reconsider the actual combat effectiveness."
"Not only must we fight well, we must also fight beautifully. Let our brothers and sisters see what the real first-class main division of the Anti-Japanese Alliance is. The title of first-class main division is not practiced on the training ground, nor is it performed on the exercise ground.
, let alone a group fight with brother troops. It was fought with real swords and guns on the battlefield, and it was earned with the life of a little devil."
Having said this, He Zhikun turned to Wang Minggui and said: "Old Wang, calm down your anger. Now that you are a division commander, you should change your temper that always gets angry. If you are angry in your heart, don't always take it out on your subordinates.
.Although the progress of the war is unfavorable, our comrades have tried their best after all. It is not what they want to see like this."
"Besides, the column is now asking us to deploy defenses on the spot. But Lao Wang, have you ever thought that the headquarters would give up Yushu? Yushu is one of the largest grain producers in Manchuria and the most populous county in Jilin. Can you take it?
Xiayushu is crucial to the future development of the base area. Do you think the headquarters can give up such a golden treasure land?"
"Even if the column wants to give up, I don't think the headquarters will agree. The column's current deployment adjustment is only temporary. We will first follow the column's requirements, but we cannot relax ourselves. If there are no fighters, we must create our own fighters.
The column requires us to organize defense on the spot, but we cannot simply defend passively."
"Old Li, when it comes to being a cadre and a soldier, you are not as good as me in ideological work. I'm afraid you are also much worse than me in guerrilla fighting. But when it comes to head-on regular position warfare, this is your specialty.
.How about it? It’s a mule or a horse, let’s pull it out for a ride?”
After all, he was a senior political cadre who was transferred from the customs. He was experienced and experienced. Although he didn't speak much, these few words inspired the morale of several group leaders and political commissars who were originally a little frustrated. But Wang Minggui
At this time, he seems to be very calm.
Wang Minggui stared at the map for a long time, then took the column's order and considered it carefully for a long time before he said to the combat staff beside him: "Call back to the column, our Ninth Division will resolutely implement the column's latest order. As quickly as possible,
Adjust deployment according to the requirements of the column and complete the turn of the entire division."
After the combat staff turned around to call back to the column, Wang Minggui clicked on the map and said: "I am now determined to use the 26th Regiment, attached to the 1st Field Artillery Battalion of the Division Artillery Regiment, a company of 107th Rocket Artillery, and a flamethrower.
Company, a heavy mortar company. And strengthen the 25th and 27th regiments with two fully-organized infantry companies each. According to the deployment of the column, follow the southeast direction of the Sancha River in Buyeo, behind Dafangshen, and four horses.
Fight, attack and advance on the front line of Xin'an Town."
"The 25th Regiment is equipped with the 2nd Field Artillery Battalion of the Division, a company of the 100mm Howitzer Battalion, a 107 Rocket Artillery Battalion, and a company of the 1st Battalion of the Heavy Artillery Regiment at the headquarters to control the front line of Chaoyanggou, Xingfutun, and Fu Grocery Store.
, block and entangle the Japanese 26th Regiment. You should not passively defend, and want this 26th Regiment to fight a face-to-face offensive battle."
"Considering that the 25th Regiment suffered the most casualties in the previous battle, the entire regiment actually only has one and a half battalions left. I will hand over the two companies of the division's engineering battalion and reconnaissance battalion to your regiment.
Your regiment will participate in the battle under unified command. In addition, you will organize all the non-combatants in your regiment to join the battle on the front line."
"We are fighting now, and there is no distinction between the first and second lines. As long as they are soldiers and wear military uniforms, they are soldiers. In addition, I will temporarily organize the non-combatants of the division into a company and give it to you. I
No matter how you fight, there is one thing. If this 28th Division runs away, I have a question for you."
"With two infantry battalions of the 27th Regiment, a 100mm howitzer battalion of the attached division artillery, a company of the 107th Rocket Artillery, two companies of the heavy artillery, and all the tank troops, concentrate all forces towards the Dawula ditch.
The flanks of the Japanese 26th Regiment on Lao He's front line forcibly attacked and advanced."
"Use one infantry battalion of the 27th Regiment, equipped with a company of 120-heavy mortars and a company of 82-heavy mortars, to guard the front line of the Xisu family. Cut off the connection between the 70th Regiment and the 26th Regiment.
, and prevent all actions of the Japanese Seventy Regiment to reinforce the Twenty-sixth Regiment."
Having said this, Wang Minggui raised his head and said to Wang Yuyang, the commander of the 27th Regiment beside him: "Old Wang, you have to mobilize the best battalion of your regiment and pin it to the front line of Xisumugangzi for me. No.
According to the order from the division headquarters, even if we fight to the last soldier, we must guard Xisumu Gangzi for me."
Hearing Wang Minggui's words, Wang Yuyang said without the slightest hesitation: "There is no need to choose this unit, just use the first battalion. This is the best battalion of our 27th Regiment, and it is also the most capable of fighting tough battles. For the battle ahead,
I have never been willing to let them go, just to use this steel knife in the most critical position."
"However, considering that their front is relatively wide, I want to strengthen my regiment's police reconnaissance company for them. In this way, their battalion becomes a reinforced company. Coupled with the assigned firepower, and our single
With the advantages of soldier firepower and machine gun firepower, I want to hold on for thirty-six hours, and there will basically be no problems."
Wang Minggui has no objection to Wang Yuyang's idea of choosing the 1st Battalion of the 27th Regiment as the front line to defend Xisumugangzi. He is not the kind of superior who overstretches his hands and interferes with the deployment and command of subordinates. Wang Minggui has no objection. As a political commissar,
He Zhikun would not have any opinions.
Although the time of being incorporated into the new Anti-Japanese Alliance was far shorter than that of his current superior, Wang Minggui, who had learned a lot about Yang Zhen's style, waved his hand and said: "Now you understand what you should do, go back immediately and follow the latest instructions."
The order is to adjust the deployment. It is now seventeen o'clock, and you must complete the adjustment before twenty o'clock. The 26th Regiment must complete the forcible crossing of the Huitanggou front line before tomorrow morning."
After Wang Minggui's words fell, the three regiment commanders who knew that this was the division commander's eviction order did not delay. After looking at the commander of the 26th regiment with some jealousy, they all saluted and returned to their troops. After the three regiment commanders left, Li Mingfeng sat down.
Inside the division headquarters, I stared at the map.
Seeing Wang Minggui staring at the map without saying anything, He Zhikun patted him on the shoulder and said: "Why are you still a little unwilling, old man? Your combat deployment is not focused on defense as required by the column, but it is a tactic of both offense and defense.
.In this posture of yours, you are trying to swallow up the 28th Regiment in one go."
Regarding He Zhikun's words, Wang Minggui shook his head and said: "Political Commissar, it is impossible to say that you are willing. After paying such a high price, the 25th Regiment was almost crippled, but it still failed to break through the Japanese defense line. In my life
, I have never fought such a useless battle."
"I, Wang Minggui, am not the kind of person who gives up easily. If the battle is not fought well, the superiors should be punished. There is nothing to say. But I am not willing to let the Ninth Division attack others. Wherever I fall, I will be punished.
Where to get up? Since we suffered a loss from the 28th Regiment, I have to get it back from these guys."
"Old He, the column asked us to switch from attack to defense, but it did not ask us to defend. Passively following the instructions of our superiors is not our Anti-Union style. I gave up the attack on all fronts, concentrated the forces of the two regiments, and attacked first.
Destroy this 28th Regiment. As long as this 28th Regiment is destroyed, I won’t fucking believe that the remaining 70th Regiment can break through the positions of our two regiments?"
Regarding Wang Minggui's words, He Zhikun said with some hesitation: "Old Wang, judging from the previous battles, the combat effectiveness of the 28th Regiment is still very strong. We, a 25th Regiment, faced it head-on.
, it is actually difficult to occupy the upper peak. Coupled with the long-range artillery support of the Japanese army, it is obviously a tough nut for us."
"Once we encircle and annihilate the 28th Regiment, we will suffer too many casualties, it will be very detrimental to our next operations. Lao Wang, you should calm down, otherwise we will lose our own front teeth instead of eating meat.
If the casualties are too heavy, will we still fight like this in the next battle? Lao Wang, please don’t bite off more than you can chew.”
