The night is deep, Bai Chongxi in the General Headquarters of the Second Army of Luzhou City has no drowsiness. He keeps pacing back and forth.
Secretly worry about the fierce reaction that Bai Chongxi may have.
In the First World War of Lingbi County, the three migrant divisions of Commander Jiang did not submit any request report to Bai Chongxi's top officer to the Supreme Officer of Bai Chongxi.
The special line quietly opened to Wuhe County. Only Deng Zhenquan sent a telegram notification before going north, but it was only based on the 盱眙, not the Sihong County that they had already captured today.
As for Anyi ’s independent division, due to the failure of the last tackling battle, it was originally not within the attention of the general headquarters. Although Bai Chongxi knew at the Nanjing conference, Anyi returned to the front line the next day, but it was unexpected anyway.
Only more than 5,000 soldiers were defeated, and they could occupy Si County, where the tall and heavy soldiers in the city walls were in the blink of an eye.
When receiving the respectful and respectful war reports from Gu Zhutong and An Yi, Bai Chongxi almost couldn't believe that this was true. When Bai Chongxi thought about the map, the first division occupied the eastern East Sihong County Town
The Jiebao also came one after another, and Bai Chongxi completely believed that the authenticity of the three Jiebao reported, and immediately realized that this was a premeditated combat plan.
Look, it can be regarded as the level of battle.
Although Bai Chongxi's formulation of this plan is so quickly and the successful results of the achievement are deeply sighed, but he is more concerned about the neglect of the three divisions of the highest officer of his theater.
After a strong harm, his rights were challenged, and his prestige was weakened instantly. This was the fundamental reason why his face was irony and the fundamental reason.
Bai Chongxi's footsteps slowly slowed down. He finally controlled his emotions well and knew that this large -scale mobilization and combat. If there was no license and support from Commander Jiang, no one would dare to do so.
It is for this substantial reason that Bai Chongxi's resentment gradually faded away, but there was no notice before the war. So far, the General Command has no explanation, which is enough to make Bai Chongxi's anger deep -frustration -
The nine divisions they commanded were all others. They were just a well -known temporary war zone chief. As the war advanced, this temporary position may be lifted at any time. Although it was sad, the reality is so cruel.
You can't solve anything before you have no own military power. With the tough and domineering personality of Commander Jiang, this kind of thing may happen again in the future.
The communications staff stood at the door and did not dare to enter the door. Zhang Dingzheng stepped over and took the electric text. He whispered and asked immediately to return. Seeing that Bai Chongxi had returned to his position and sat down slowly, Zhang Dingzheng smiled, and slowly put the electric text.
In front of Bai Chongxi: "The commander of the Commander's power that just posted to the country is quite strange."
After reading the telephone text, Bai Chongxi sighed: "Do you think that Commander Jiang has memorized the credit on my head? In fact, he was forcing me and Germany to use the pressure of public opinion to force us to launch the Battle of Xuzhou as soon as possible."
"Yes, my subordinates have also seen this. I wonder how Duke De will view this issue after receiving the victory report of the Lingsi Battle and the telegram from Commander-in-Chief Chiang Kai-shek?" Zhang Dingfan said worriedly.
Bai Chongxi snorted: "What do you think? Riding a tiger is difficult! Commander-in-chief Chiang is indeed a master of politics. He forced us into a situation with no retreat in a few words. His calculations are indeed impeccable. We know that we are being forced, but we can't
We have no choice but to bite the bullet, otherwise how can we explain it to the military and civilians across the country?"
Pan Yizhi suggested: "You can let Duke De announce the news to the outside world, saying that the war in the surrounding areas is not over yet, and full preparations are needed before the Xuzhou Campaign can be launched."
Bai Chongxi shook his head: "This would be tantamount to openly opposing Commander-in-Chiang. It's not the right time! He saw through this and dared to act unscrupulously and insistently."
"Then we can only endure it?" Pan Yizhi asked angrily.
Bai Chongxi nodded: "If you can't bear it, you will ruin your big plan. If you can bear it for a while, let's change the sea and the sky. I admit it! Zuyi (Pan Yi's word), in the name of the Political Department of my Second Route Army, sent it to the three divisions ahead.
Send a telegram of commendation and inquire about the results of the battle. After summarizing, please send a telegram to the headquarters."
"yes!"
Pan Yizhi stood up helplessly and went to execute it.
Bai Chongxi said to Zhang Dingfan: "I guess Mr. De is waiting for me to come over. You can make arrangements later. We will go to Bengbu at dawn. Instead of taking the train, it is faster and more convenient to go by car."
"clear!"
Zhang Dingfan looked at his watch without moving, but asked in a low voice: "Who does Brother Jiansheng think the entire plan for the Lingsi Campaign came from?"
Bai Chongxi sighed slightly: "Who else besides An Yi? Among the entire Huangpu direct army, only An Yi has such level and vision, but it is still not known how he fought and where he chose the breakthrough point?
However, judging from the summary of the results, this person is indeed extremely capable, possessing extraordinary insight and amazing command methods. A remnant of 5,000 people who had just been defeated and still undecided, actually captured the fortified Sixian County. This cannot be
don't say yes
This is a miracle. The most commendable thing about this battle is the capture of Si County. An Yi not only avenged one stone, but also restored the confidence of his soldiers. At the same time, he also allowed the generals of the army and Commander-in-Chief Chiang to see his outstanding achievements.
Ability and irreplaceable role.
After this battle, his status will become more and more consolidated, and his weight in the minds of the headquarters and the generals of the army will become more and more important. It can be said that after this battle, he will truly step into the role of an important general of the army.
No one can exclude him in the ranks."
Zhang Dingfan smiled bitterly and shook his head, stood up and walked while sighing in a low voice: "What a pity, what a pity..."
At 9:40 a.m. the next day, Bengbu, Third Route Army headquarters.
Li Zongren bent his right index finger and middle finger and tapped twice on the smooth ebony coffee table. After Bai Chongxi poured himself tea, he picked up the tea cup and gestured briefly, then slowly brought it to his mouth, with a relaxed and relaxed expression on his face.
And quiet.
After taking a sip of tea, Li Zongren put down the cup and asked in a low voice, "How did Jiansheng think the Battle of Lingsi went?"
"Impeccable! Even if it were a younger brother, he might not have fought so beautifully. The three divisions quietly assembled in such a short period of time, and then launched a unified attack. The division of labor was clear, and they could perfectly cooperate with each other and cut off the mutual support between the defenders.
This has never happened before in the Huangpu department commanded by my younger brother, and the three divisions were almost at the same time.
He moved to position in time to launch a fierce attack on the enemy. Within a few hours, he succeeded in siege the city, killing more than 3,000 enemy people, and capturing more than 5,300 enemy people. The total casualties of the enemy were less than 2,000 officers and soldiers. The entire operation went from planning to
The execution was truly a masterpiece. If An Yi had not endured the pain of blowing up the arsenal in Changgou Town in order to reduce losses, the gains from this battle would have been even greater.
What is touching is not the series of results of the three divisions, but An Yi's endless strategies, accurate battlefield judgment and extremely sophisticated fighting style. If this guy is not used by me, he is a powerful enemy and needs to be eliminated as soon as possible.
!" Bai Chongxi whispered.
Li Zongren nodded: "Jian Sheng's review is not exaggerated. If I hadn't read the battle report compiled by Jian Sheng just now, Brother Yu would have never known how this battle unfolded. It was very subtle!
An Yi actually found out the enemy's weakness in such a short period of time, concentrated his strength to defeat it in one fell swoop, and lured the main defenders out of the city to annihilate them. His scheming and courage are indeed touching, especially when he brought four thousand
A new recruit borrowed from Nanjing was used to contain Si
The main enemy force in the county and the use of local militia to set up suspicious troops played an important role in allowing him to concentrate his superior forces and calmly annihilate the enemy defenders in Changgou and the enemies coming for reinforcements. It was a stroke of genius! If he hadn't had the strong confidence to know his enemy and his friend, he would not have dared
Take the risk.
All in all, Brother Yu’s feeling is: This kid is incredible, it’s not an exaggeration to call him a genius you won’t see in a century!”
Bai Chongxi nodded slightly: "What did you say when Maoru (characterized by Li Zhifan) came back?"
"I can't see through it... Maoru said that he really couldn't see through An Yi's thoughts. He said that when he looked at An Yi, he couldn't see any joy, anger, sorrow or joy in An Yi's eyes. According to Maoru's account,
I think it’s very difficult to get this talent. After last night’s experience
In the Battle of Lingsi, this person's reputation in the Huangpu family will rise rapidly. Although Chiang Kai-shek did not give special commendation to An Yi in the power supply, I am afraid that all the generals in the headquarters and the generals in the Second and First Route Army have
I know this is An Yi's masterpiece.
If this battle continues, Bao Bao Yi will not make outstanding military exploits again. If He Jingzhi and Liu Jingfu are transferred back to the First Army, it will simply give him a broader world. He will
I am convinced that I can show my talents as I wish and eventually become the leader of the Huangpu family!"
After Li Zongren finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.
Bai Chongxi nodded silently: "After Lingbi was occupied by our army, the enemy defenders in Suzhou actually retreated without fighting. They all retreated to the front line of Xuzhou to set up defenses. This is something I never thought of before. As a result, both in terms of public opinion and the battle situation, we have been
Forced to the point where he was riding a tiger, it would be no good if he did not launch the Xuzhou Campaign as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would not only damage his reputation, but also give people with ulterior motives an excuse to attack. Commander-in-Chief Chiang's move was not a bad one!
The only advantage is that Commander-in-Chief Chiang Kai-shek needs to be based in Nanjing and has to rely on his brother's outstanding command. The First Division of our Second Route Army must also cooperate with him as planned. After returning, my younger brother immediately transferred Gu Mosan's Third Division to the north.
According to the planned route of our Second Route Army, we will attack Suqian.
The 1st Division and the 40th Army also moved north together, leaving only the Anyi Independent Division stationed on the Lingbi line. When the general offensive is launched, it will be transferred to the east of Xuzhou again. At this stage, we can try to win over Anyi.
If it continues to be unsatisfactory, we will have to make other plans, what do you think, brother?"
"agree!"
Li Zongren nodded and suggested: "Jiansheng, your old classmate Hu Jinyu (also known as Hu Zongduo) and An Yi once fought side by side under Wuchang City. From what Hu Jinyu said, he seems to have a good relationship with An Yi. I guess you can arrange for An Yi to be an independent division with An Yi."
Hu Zongduo's second division also had a clear idea, Jian Sheng might as well inform Hu Jinyu secretly and ask him to do An Yi's work, maybe it will work wonders, but you may not know!"
"Okay! I will call Jinyu immediately when I get back."
After Bai Chongxi finished speaking, he asked in a low voice: "In the battle at Xuzhou, can I help you?"
Li Zongren laughed angrily: "Brother Xian has done enough for Brother Yu. He just sent another million in military supplies. Brother Yu is very grateful!
At present, our troops are well-prepared and have sufficient ammunition, and we are waiting for all the armies to be in place to launch a sudden launch. In this battle, we also want to let the people of the world see the bravery and strength of our Gui soldiers again!"
