Chapter 549: Li Nian's Crisis

After Li Tianxing saw Hu Bin's telegram, he was quite excited, he was waiting for Hu Bin's telegram for the past few days, because Hu Bin had told him before that he wanted him to prepare the troops for the counterattack, so he had assembled all the reserve troops during this time.

He knew that Hu Bin must have a backhand, and now that Hu Bin's troops were outside, he knew Hu Bin, and knew that Hu Bin could not let tens of thousands of troops stay in Shaanxi, watching the war going on here, so now after seeing Hu Bin's telegram, Li Tianxing immediately ordered the troops to enter the front-line position, and also told the commander of the front line to prepare for a counterattack!

"Chief of Staff, isn't it a bit risky to transfer troops to the front line now, in case tomorrow the devil's bombers come to bomb again, and our soldiers in the position will have no bomb shelters for them to hide!" When a senior staff officer heard Li Tianxing give such an order, he immediately looked at Hu Bin hesitantly and said.

"Just transfer it over, the rest is not your consideration, I know what you are worried about, but now you just need to carry out the order!" Li Tianxing looked at them and said.

"Yes, but we still want to know, what is going on today, how can the devil's troops retreat when they say they will retreat, there is no indication at all that they might do this, what is going on?" Another senior staff officer asked.

"Wait, you'll know when the time comes, don't ask anything now!" Li Tianxing smiled and said.

At this time, after receiving Li Tianxing's telegram, the reserve troops in the rear began to go to their respective fronts.

"Counterattack?"

"Counterattack?" When the division commanders on the front line saw such a telegram, they were quite surprised, there are no conditions for a counterattack at all, the devils are now defending on the spot, and according to their reconnaissance, the devils have built simple fortifications over there. In addition, they have occupied a lot of high ground, and if they really want to counterattack, the casualties will be very large!

"It doesn't make sense, today's battle confused me!" Wang Zhixian sat there with a telegram and said very confusedly.

"Yes, you said that the devil said to retreat. Our side is still saying that we want to counterattack, how to counterattack, the devil is in the sky, there are artillery on the ground, how can we counterattack? By the way, there are also tanks, if we weren't equipped with individual anti-tank guns, the devil's tanks would have rushed over, and we wouldn't have been able to fight at all! Now counter-offensive. How many troops are we going to casualties? A brigade commander next to him looked at Wang Zhixian and said.

"No, think about it, why did the devil retreat? There must be something we don't know, but the command knows! I feel that although the command can't understand such an order, it must be certain! Another brigade commander spoke.

"You're right, there is a situation that we don't know, order the troops. Now rest well, once the order for a counteroffensive comes down. It is estimated that there will be no time to rest, and so are you, arrange the staff on duty, and go to rest, and give an order, we will go on! Wang Zhixian put down the telegram. Said to a few of them.

"Yes!" The two brigades heard, nodded, and went out.

After they left, Wang Zhixian sat there and muttered in his heart: "Could it be that Xiaobin has acted." Isn't he in Shaanxi? Coming back? If you come back, this battle will be easy to fight! ”

And on the Yan'an side, they also received a notification from the front line that the devil's troops retreated and did not attack, but adopted a defensive policy!

"The devils suddenly changed the way of fighting, from offense to defense, that means that they have budgeted for Hu Bin to act, but we don't know where Hu Bin is now!" The commander-in-chief stood in front of the map of Hubei, looked at the map and said.

"The 4 offensive lines are all on the defensive, a bit abnormal, what do you say they are afraid of, there are at least more than 30,000 devils on each line, and there are 2 divisions behind them The troops are not moving, if there is really any change in the front, the 2 divisions behind them can also act!" The commander also looked at the map and said puzzled.

Now they can't contact Hu Bin at all, however, they can contact Li Dalong, but Li Dalong doesn't say anything, he said that Hu Bin's actions are to be kept secret, and the other is to let the headquarters and headquarters believe Hu Bin!

"Hu Bin must have acted, probably back to the same place, and now the devils are worried that Hu Bin may attack one of their attacking forces, so they have adopted a defensive posture.

This kid may want to start a counteroffensive, if he really eats a few of his divisions, the devil's troops will really have to retreat, and it won't work if he doesn't retreat, let Hu Bin gather the attack troops, the devil can't stop it! The commander-in-chief stood there and nodded.

"Well, it's good to go back, we don't have to worry about the situation in Hubei when we go back, I really didn't expect that the troops of the 99th Army, without Hubei, would be able to hold out for so many days, and at the same time give the devil so much damage, it's really good, it shows that Hu Bin can still command the troops over there! The trained troops are also good! The commander nodded and said with satisfaction.

"Well, Hu Bin still has the ability to command the troops, but the command Li Tianxing and their command is also good, after this battle, there will be a lot of low-level cadres emerge, those cadres have combat experience, and their growth will be accelerated, let Hu Bin quickly set up a branch of Kang University in Hubei, before Hu Bin was in the arsenal, he couldn't care about the establishment of a branch school, now is the time!" The Commander-in-Chief spoke.

"Maybe it won't work, if you want Hu Bin to establish, it's not possible!" The commander thought for a moment and spoke.

"Ah, no, why not?" The commander-in-chief heard the commander-in-chief's words and looked at him in surprise.

"Hu Bin has to come back, if he doesn't come back, I guess the Ankang, Shangluo, and that passage he occupies now can't be saved. Jiang Tong will definitely go back, Hu Bin has finished beating the devils in Hubei, and Commander Jiang will definitely start to liquidate, this is unavoidable, after all, Hu Bin has robbed their territory, and these territories are not controlled by the devils, they control them, so they will let us hand them over.

However, if we announce the handling of Hu Bin to the outside world, then, they will not keep asking for it, and the process of dealing with Hu Bin cannot be less than half a year, otherwise, trouble! The commander said worriedly with a cigarette in his hand.

Hu Bin's matter is handled regardless of whether Chongqing or not, Yan'an must deal with it, if you don't deal with it, you can't give the people an explanation.

"Also, when will the Kang University branch be established?" The commander-in-chief asked, looking at the commander-in-chief.

"It's better to establish it now, let Hu Bin be the principal, but leave the specific preparations to Li Nian, now that Hu Bin and Li Nian have a conflict, I will see if I can help them fix it!" The commander continued to say worriedly.

If he didn't send a telegram to Li Nian, Li Nian would not dare to stop Hu Bin's troops, and now there is a problem between the military and the government, and if it is not dealt with properly, it will still have a great impact on Hubei.

"You have to take a good look at this, according to what I know, the troops have a lot of opinions about Li Nian, especially those soldiers below the regimental level, they think that Li Nian doesn't take the lives of the soldiers seriously at all, and there is also the fact that they will no longer help Li Nian escort supplies over in the future, this is a big problem!" The commander-in-chief heard it, nodded and said.

"What? And such a thing? The commander heard this and looked at the commander-in-chief in great surprise.

"What do you think, Hu Bin is going to avenge the soldiers, but the political commissar stops him, what do you let the soldiers think? And also stopped Hu Bin's attacking troops, the soldiers can have no opinion, this time the sacrifices are all soldiers of ordinary troops, the entire 99th Army, any unit may be escorted, then death is in vain, who wants to tell me? The commander-in-chief looked at the commander and said.

"That's really troublesome!" The commander stood up and walked back and forth in his office with his hands behind his back.

"I see, listen to what Hu Bin means, if Hu Bin says that he will be transferred, you will transfer him, the military and the government are not in agreement, then how will you fight in the future, besides, if Li Nian does not have Hu Bin's support, he will not have any prestige in the 99th Army in the future! The impact of this incident on Li Nian is very great! The commander-in-chief continued.

"No, if Li Nian is transferred away like this, the blow to Li Nian will be too great, and this matter is my fault, I'll talk to Hu Bin, but what you said is right, you have to listen to Hu Bin, if Hu Bin really doesn't want Li Nian, then he can only be transferred, hey, this rabbit cub, give Lao Tzu a problem! Come back and clean him up and let him know how good Lao Tzu is. The commander said with his hands behind his back.

However, on the front line, Hu Bin and the others had already finished eating at this time, and now they were just waiting for it to get dark, and as soon as it got dark, Hu Bin would start to act.

"Order the units of the special regiment and the armored brigade to prepare and leave on time at 6:30! Order the artillery units and infantry units to leave on time at 6:50! Hu Bin said to Mo Shot.

"Order our infantry units to leave on time at 6:50! No delays! Wei Lihuang also said to the staff officer next to him.

"Yes!" All of them stood up and prepared to fight.

"Brother, if we succeed this time, it will be of great significance to our country, and it will be the first time to recover a big city!" Wei Lihuang looked at Hu Bin and said.

"Brother, I have a suggestion, as soon as the battle on our front line starts, you will send a clear code telegram to the past, and say that the battle to recover Wuhan has begun! Not much else. Hu Bin looked at Wei Lihuang with a smile and suggested. (To be continued.) )
