At the pre-war meeting held by the Second Column, Li Yong and Wang Chengde quietly discussed whether they wanted to fight with Commander Wang and the commanders for the combat mission of attacking Laoshan.
The psychology of the soldiers of that era was very simple, and everyone had a common concept, if there were difficulties, they should not fight for dangerous tasks, what kind of soldiers are they called? We all know that the more difficult the task, the greater the casualties, but the more this way, the more it can reflect the value of a soldier.
Wang Chengde secretly asked Li Yong why he asked the soldiers to train Xing in advance, are you about to become Zhuge Liang? Li Yong smiled, did not answer Wang Chengde's question directly, but stood up steadily and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have a plan." ”
After the words were spoken, the venue gradually quieted down, it has been in contact for so long, and there have been meetings together more than once, everyone knows that the head of the independent regiment has a lot of goods in his belly, don't look at his age, but he is not a simple character.
Seeing Li Yong standing up, Commander Wang also said with great interest: "I thought that you two guys would sit until the end of the meeting, so hurry up and say anything." ”
Li Yong: "Ladies and gentlemen, just hand over this Laoshan position to our regiment, we are confident that we will complete the task, defeat the Laoshan defenders, and create conditions for the large army to expand along the line." ”
Commander Wang didn't say anything, but the chief of staff who briefed everyone on the situation just now spoke first: "Commander Li, Political Commissar Wang, although the terrain of Laoshan is not high, it is very steep, it is a hilltop position that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the enemy also knows the importance of this position, and has used a reinforced regiment to defend, and has been operating for more than a year, and all kinds of fortifications are complete, don't look at the strength of your independent regiment is more than twice that of the enemy, but it is still very difficult to take it, once you can't take this hilltop position, The attack of our entire column must be blocked, and we must clearly consider the difficult course of fighting for the task, and we must also be mentally prepared to fight if it is not easy. ”
How many people there are in the independent regiment, how many weapons, how many family backgrounds, can hide from others, can't hide from the second column, the chief of staff in charge of operations, Li Yong and Wang Chengde know very well how many cards in their hands, so they will speak first to remind the two of them.
Before Li Yong could answer, Commander Wang preemptively said: "Don't rush to grab the task first, what the chief of staff said is very right, I also want to inform you of the situation, this time in order to capture Yan'an smoothly, after the study and decision of the column party committee, the artillery of our whole column must be concentrated and used, that is to say, the artillery of the whole column should be concentrated in the direction of the main attack, especially the artillery of your independent regiment, which is the strongest artillery unit in our column, I will pull it all away before the battle starts, you two must think about it, Is it possible to take Laoshan without artillery? ”
Commander Wang's words made Li Yong and Wang Chengde stunned, I really didn't expect this problem, the howitzer battalion is the most important strike firepower of the independent regiment, and it is also the trump card in the regiment, a large part of the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment comes from this howitzer battalion, and the 92 infantry guns and 75 wild mountain artillery equipped with the artillery battalion are also the sharp weapons for mountain attack, if the higher authorities transfer all the artillery battalions, the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment will be greatly affected, Because some of the tactics formulated by Li Yong, Wang Chengde and others revolved around the artillery battalion.
Li Yong and Wang Chengde quickly exchanged glances, and under Wang Chengde's encouragement, Li Yong straightened his chest: "Long, we will do it without artillery, if we don't do it, other brother troops will also have to do it, don't they also have no artillery?" Rest assured, we promise to complete the task. ”
The two military commanders of the independent regiment took the initiative to ask for the task, which made Commander Wang very happy, and he also felt a headache about this Laoshan position, if you want to attack Yan'an, you have to take Laoshan, and if you want to take the combat troops invested in the second column of Laoshan, you also need at least one main brigade, according to past experience, in fact, with a brigade to attack such a fortified position as Laoshan, Commander Wang is not at ease, the battle is going smoothly, what if it is not smooth? If they can really take the commanding heights as the independent regiment said, it will be easy to do it, and they can free up three brigades to deal with the defending enemy in Yan'an City.
"It's not okay to talk big words, I don't care if I don't give you the task of attacking Laoshan, it will be decided after discussion by the party committee of the column, I will give you two days to come up with a battle plan, and whoever has the most feasible plan will hand over the task to whom, do you understand?" Before the end of the meeting, Commander Wang said with a smile.
After the meeting was dismissed, all units of the Second Column were nervously prepared, and although the column headquarters had not yet clarified whose task it was, everyone understood that a major battle was inevitable and was about to come, and all kinds of training for the siege became more and more intense.
Not surprisingly, the orders came down not long after the operational plans of the various units were reported, and the independent regiment was officially given an operational order to attack Laoshan, and in view of the arduousness of the task, the party committee of the column also gave it a very loud name called "Laoshan Assault Regiment."
One night two days later, the Northwest Field Army, which had been resting in this area for nearly two months, quietly pulled out, no one shouted horse neighing, and there was no dog barking at night, only the footsteps of the soldiers brushing and the sound of the motor of the car engine, in the past two months, the soldiers were not only like a family with the local people, but also mixed with the dogs in the people's homes, so when the team of people and horses pulled out, the dogs in this area did not have much reaction, hehe, are they all acquaintances.
Since the capture of Yan'an in April, July, and March, the Kuomintang troops occupying Yan'an have not stopped for a day, and all kinds of news are overwhelming, and it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and the large troops are looking for the main force of the communist army for a decisive battle in the continuous ravines of northern Shaanxi, and after the communist troops withdrew from Yan'an, it is as if they suddenly disappeared without any news, and it is useless to use aircraft to reconnoiter or to send a large number of spy personnel; according to the pilots, there are mountains and ditches everywhere in northern Shaanxi, and the reconnaissance effect in the air is limited, and the spy personnel are even more pitifulOnly a small number of the people sent out in this land that had been completely red by the Communist Party were able to come back, and most of the spy personnel were missing, so that in the later stage, let alone individual reconnaissance personnel, even a group of troops did not dare to go out, for fear of being eaten by the ubiquitous communist guerrillas.
Later, the battle became more and more uncomfortable, the large army was tired and thinned by the big ravine in northern Shaanxi, and the strength of the heart was also dragged, just when you thought that the communist army had disappeared without a trace, they would suddenly come out from a place you could not imagine and bite you, tear off a bloody piece of Rou from you, and then disappear.
At the beginning, it was still a brigade and a brigade was eaten by the communist army, and then the appetite of the communist army became bigger and bigger, and the losses of ** increased exponentially, even Liu Kan, Yan Ming, Xu Bao, these ** senior generals were killed or captured, but the good news was not one, these ** officers stationed in Yan'an had nothing to do for a day, and then someone came up with a way, the Yan River was going to freeze when it was cold, and it was a good place for ice skating, so a large number of ** officers went skating every day, and the entire Yan River was full of ** The officers are galloping, not to mention, these officers' skating skills are still good, it is estimated that they are much stronger than the officers of the People's Liberation Army, not to mention skating in the PLA troops, there may be few people with this kind of thinking, and whoever makes people's minds focus on fighting.
But even such days were not too long, bad news one after another, first Yulin was occupied by the communist army, and then Liu Kan and Yan Ming's corps were wiped out by the communist army, these officers who had nothing to do all day were no longer in the mood to skate, and they drank in the house all day long, using alcohol to temporarily anesthetize themselves.
A few days ago, news came that Baoji had been occupied by the communist army again, and Pei Changhui, who was sent out to rescue, was also beaten by the communist army and lost his armor, and even half of the troops were not brought back, and the entire corps had lost its combat effectiveness.
This is even more frightening, the ubiquitous communist army may suddenly jump out of a place you don't think possible, grab you by the neck and kill you.
More than a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and in June of the fourth or eighth year, the ** troops stationed in Yan'an have all changed into single military uniforms, which shows the benefits of sufficient logistics supplies, and you don't have to worry about anything else except for the war.
On the morning of that day, the headquarters of the 17th Kuomintang Reorganized Division stationed in Yan'an was crowded with people, and He Wending, the commander of the reorganized 17th Division and commander of the Yan'an garrison, was holding a meeting of senior generals.
He Wending, a first-term student of Huangpu, Hu Zongnan's classmate, of course, is also a classmate of some senior commanders in the People's Liberation Army, this qualification is very powerful, but it is only a great seniority, and it is difficult to say anything else, for example, Liu Kan and Yan Ming once asked him for help when they were besieged by the People's Liberation Army, but he, the commander, was only sent out a brigade to rescue at that time. With three divisions in hand, but only one brigade is sent to deal with errands, what kind of commander is this guts worthy of?
After a while, Lao Ba's will be better, please forgive me for the time being.
