Chapter 915: The Commander's Thoughts (6th Update)
915 Hu Bin was very happy to learn that the commander of the 22nd Division was Xie Shousheng, he was his old subordinate, and he was completely able to command. On Xie Shousheng's side, Xie Shousheng had just received a telegram from the headquarters and learned that the troops in Qinhuangdao in front of them were Hu Bin's troops, and Hu Bin was the division commander over there.
"Lao Xie, do you know Hu Bin?" Xu Xi, the political commissar of the 22nd Division, looked at Xie Shousheng and asked,
Xie Shousheng just came here to report, the army has not yet figured it out, and this unit is also an old unit, many people are not convinced Xie Shousheng, this is also understandable, because Xie Shousheng is still a little younger, much younger than the current brigade commanders, so it is normal for those people below to be unconvinced.
"Hehe, my original battalion commander, when I was in Shanxi, we were blocking the Sixth Division and fighting there, and then Brother Bin was transferred to Henan!" Xie Shousheng took Hu Bin's telegram and laughed.
"Yes, let me tell you, Hu Bin is a military commander sooner or later, I have heard about it a long time ago, that is, he is willing to be a military commander, or the commander would have let him go up a long time ago!" Xu Xi looked at Xie Shousheng with a smile and said,
And several other senior commanders, including those brigade commanders, looked at Xie Shousheng with a completely different vision at this time, everyone knew that following Hu Bin was a big victory, and the appreciation was fast.
The deputy division-level cadres and deputy brigade-level cadres who were transferred to the expeditionary force before are now basically division-level cadres and deputy army-level cadres, and some are still army-level cadres.
Hu Bin didn't become a military-level cadre, not because Hu Bin's credit was not enough, but because he didn't want to be it, and there was no way to take him from above, and now their 22nd Division is under the command of Hu Bin, so in the future, they will definitely be promoted very quickly!
"Well, Brother Bin just wants to go to the front line, in fact, now Xiang Feng and Li Qinwei can be transferred to the division commander immediately, and they have also been division commanders, and now they are willing to work by Brother Bin's side, one is to be able to win the battle with Brother Bin,
On the other hand, they also want to learn more by Brother Bin's side, and there is that if the two of them are to be transferred, they must be deputy military-level cadres, and they can be directly promoted to the next level, so now our Brother Bin is working, it should be the best, and you don't have to worry, Brother Bin will let us go to the thunder,
Brother Bin, the person who cares most about casualties, if our commander has a large number of casualties, it is estimated that Brother Bin will not be able to spare us. Of course Xie Shousheng knew what those people were thinking, and when he first came, they were still not convinced.
Now that they know that Hu Bin is their old battalion commander, they also know that they are actually a bit powerful, and the people who follow Hu Bin will not be bad in command.
"Well, I've heard of this!" Political Commissar Xu Xi nodded and said, the others also nodded, they all knew that Hu Bin had a hard rule in the war, if it was a command mistake and there were big casualties, even if it was a great credit, Hu Bin would cut people, it was not a joke!
"Report, Hu Bin telegraphed, ordering our troops to go out immediately, keep up with their large forces, and attack Yingkou tomorrow!" A staff officer took the order signed by Hu Bin personally and said to Xie Shousheng.
"Okay, I know, order the troops to set off immediately, now Brother Bin is estimated to take the lead, and we have to go over to help!" Xie Shousheng said with a smile.
"Yes!" When the brigade commanders heard this, they immediately saluted. Then he turned around and went out.
"Ha, I'm worried about how long it will take you to get the troops under control! I didn't expect that you are Master Hu's old subordinate, so I don't have to worry about it at all, the people below just want to have a good division commander, a good division commander who can lead them to win battles,
Seeing that you became a division commander at such a young age, they must be unconvinced, but they know that you are Hu Bin's old subordinate, and you must have fought many battles, and you relied on your real ability to become the division commander, I guess they won't dare to be big in front of you in the future! Xu Xi saw those division commanders leave, and smiled at Xie Shousheng.
"I know, I can understand, so these days, I'm just going down to the army to feel the situation, and I can't command indiscriminately as soon as I come, that will cause problems!" Xie Shousheng nodded with a smile and said.
"You are all commanders, you know what the soldiers below need, so you can completely understand, including us, you see, now it is under the command of Hu Bin, and those of us have no opinion at all, why?
That Hu Bin Hu Division Commander has commanded more than 300,000 troops to fight, and he is still fighting in a foreign country, how difficult it is, the same victory, now in the country, listen to the command, you can't be wrong, if you change to other divisions to try, designate those cadres below, including you, may have opinions, they are all division commanders, why listen to him, right? Xu Xi said to Xie Shousheng.
"That's the reason, okay, let's clean it up, and I'll probably be able to see Brother Bin tomorrow!" Xie Shousheng nodded and said,
At this time, on the front line, Xiang Feng's armored troops were attacking the outer positions of the devils, and the devils had also sent reinforcements.
If there are no reinforcements, the troops in those peripheral positions will be completely eaten by the Chinese troops, so now they must send reinforcements, and this is also in Hu Bin's arms, he now hopes that the devils will send troops out to reinforce as much as possible, so that when they officially attack,
There are not many troops on the devil's side, and when the time comes, he will be able to take the main position in one fell swoop, drag it out for a few days, Hu Bin doesn't like it, because such variables are too big, and the casualties are also large, Hu Bin doesn't like to fight like this very much, he just likes it, take the devil's position in one fell swoop, even if the casualties are a little bigger, Hu Bin's heart is acceptable,
Because the casualties are larger, they are smaller than those that drag on for a few days.
As soon as the devil's reinforcements came out less than 5 miles, they were ambushed by the special regiment, and the special regiment likes to do such things, tie up their pockets, wait for you to get in, and then kill you at once, the troops reinforced by the devil have not been launched at all, and they will soon be beaten by powerful firepower, and they will not be able to organize a counterattack at all, and a surprise attack will be able to kill those reinforcements of the troops.
"Report, Yingkou is in a hurry, Yingkou has been attacked by Chinese troops, and it is still fighting!" A staff officer rushed to Kiichiro Higuchi's office and shouted,
At this time, Kiichiro Higuchi had not slept yet, and was still working in his office, and now when he heard the words of the staff officer, he immediately stood up.
"What is the situation over there, is it dangerous or not, what troops are coming to attack, how many troops are there?" Kiichiro Higuchi stood up and asked the staff officer.
"They haven't reported this yet, they don't know yet!" The staff officer looked at the telegram in his hand and said to him.
"Damn it!" Higuchi Kiichiro heard it, cursed, and then began to walk towards the headquarters, just there. I found that the staff officers of the command headquarters were busy.
"Report, the 71st Division telegraphed, the enemy is coming to attack mainly armored troops, probably a division's armored troops, and now they are storming their positions, and the division commander Changshan and others are expected to arrive during the day tomorrow, and now their defense line is still not in danger!" A staff officer came over with a telegram and reported.
"Yo Xi, it's good that there is no danger, is there a situation in other places?" Kiichiro Higuchi asked, standing in front of the map, staring at the map.
"Not yet, but we have sent a telegram to inform them that the troops on the other side of the camp are now under attack!" The staff officer continued to report.
"Yo Xi!" Higuchi Jiichiro heard it, nodded and said, the staff officer went down immediately.
"Yingkou has been attacked, we have 50,000 troops on the Yingkou side, which can be completely blocked, now it is to see if the troops on the Chinese side are acting as one force or all of them!" Kiichiro Higuchi stood in front of the map, nodded and said.
"Commander, I estimate that their side will definitely launch a general attack tomorrow, do we have to prepare in advance?" The chief of staff also came over at this time and asked Kiichiro Higuchi.
"What preparations are there now, our front line is ready, but, you are right, the troops on the front line may be insufficient, go and mobilize 2 reserve divisions to reinforce Yingkou and Chaoyang!" Higuchi Jiichiro heard it, nodded and said.
"Hey!" The chief of staff received the order and immediately went to issue it. "Fight us now, today we just declared war with the Soviet Union, and our troops in the Far East have just started fighting, and now the Chinese troops have launched an attack on us, it seems, they are also worried!
They are worried that the Soviet Union will not be able to stop our attack, and when the time comes, once our troops in the Far East move south, they will not be able to stop them, and the calculation is good, but now we have more than 1.5 million troops in Manchuria, and Qi can be shaken by your hundreds of thousands of troops? Kiichiro Higuchi looked at the map and immediately knew what the purpose of attacking them was now, that is, to completely block their troops in the Far East from the outside of China.
"Someone, send a telegram to the base camp, saying that our troops at Yingkou have been attacked by Chinese troops, and it is expected that they will launch an attack on our entire defense line starting tomorrow." Higuchi Kiichiro said to a staff officer beside him.
"Hey!" The staff officer immediately went to send a telegram, and at this time, the two armored battalions that broke through the devil's defense line on the front line of Yingkou were now rushing towards the devil's artillery position.
"Battalion commander, battalion commander, there are devils' headlights on the south side, and we suspect it's the devil's armored car!" A tank observer shouted to his battalion commander. (To be continued.) )
