Chapter 391: Special Mission
Just when several leaders of the headquarters of the Northwest Field Army were studying how to deal with the Ma Jiajun who was moving very fast, Commander Liu Jingfan, who was in charge of logistics of the field army, who usually did not pay much attention to the war, reminded everyone that there were also teams in our field army that ran very fast, no slower than the cavalry, and it was not quite appropriate for them to deal with the Ma Jiajun.

Commander Liu said this because he had had a lot of contact with the Independent Brigade before, and he was familiar with Li Yong, Wang Chengde, and others, and he had a deep memory of the fact that the Independent Brigade used to be a battalion and regiment-level unit and often provided food for large troops, which was also the main reason why Commander Liu could think of the Independent Brigade.
After the New Year's Day of forty-nine years, Li Yong, the brigade commander of the independent brigade, turned 21 years old and was the 21-year-old brigade commander of the heroic brigade, but this is only the age of this body, and the real mental state and psychological age are already old fritters in their thirties.
Different from the Red Army period, 21-year-old brigade-level cadres were rare in the War of Liberation, which also had a certain relationship with the size of the troops at that time, and the so-called divisions during the Red Army period were only a few thousand people, which was different from the concept of divisions and brigades during the War of Liberation.
Li Yuming, the commander of the guard company in the jeep, kept nagging his brigade commander, telling this chief, who was about the same age as himself, to pay attention to his image, how to have a senior chief, just like a political commissar.
Li Yong, who was a little impatient, replied angrily: "Don't you see that I'm thinking about things?" I'm here to be informal, you kid knows bullshit, huh. ”
Li Yuming pursed his lips, and took Li Yong's reason as a deaf ear: "Okay, you have a lot of reasoning, I said brigade commander, the head of the headquarters has to let us report directly if there is any major matter, and if there is something to order, won't it be over." ”
Li Yong: "It's not a small matter, the chief didn't say let's not guess, we'll know when we arrive, hehehe." ”
Li Yong's burst of laughter made Li Yuming very entangled, knowing that his young little chief might have figured out something again, but he just didn't tell himself.
"If you don't say it, you won't say it, it's almost to the ground anyway, it's not bad for this time." Li Yuming, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, was so angry that he turned his head to look at the mountain road ahead.
A total of four jeeps were driving on the bumpy dirt road, one was on the brigade commanders Li Yong and Li Yuming, one was on the political commissar Wang Chengde and two guards on the body, and two were soldiers sent by more than a dozen guard companies.
The people of the independent brigade, that guy is a famous hero brigade, the weapons are good, the equipment is good, there are many people and vehicles, the travel style is big, the shelves are full, the brigade commander and the political commissar have something to do is a few jeeps to go out together, Wang Chengde is from the old Eighth Road, his words and deeds are very formal and strict, but other soldiers, including the brigade commander Li Yong, are different, not to mention walking, sitting in the car are shy, and looking forward to it like a cow.
It is said that political commissar Wang Chengde did not agree to do this, didn't he just go out, what did he do to hug back and forth, the two of them could take a car, but they couldn't stand Li Yong's nonsense, and they would be recognized if they came and went.
It took less than an hour to follow the undulating dirt road, and several cars were parked in the small ravine where the headquarters were located, in fact, the distance between the independent brigade and the field army headquarters was not too far, but the road was not easy to walk, and the car could not run too fast.
The guards in front of the Noji Gate saw Li Yong getting off the car and hurriedly stood up and saluted, and told him and Wang Chengde that the chief was waiting for them inside.
These guards may not know all the senior commanders of the field army, but they have an impression of Li Yong, whether the guards are all clever and clever young men, especially the guards in front of the headquarters, none of them are given for nothing, Li Yong is such a young brigade-level commander in the whole field army has only one semicolon, so several young men recognized him.
Li Yuming and more than a dozen people from the guard company stayed at the door to chat with the soldiers standing guard, Li Yong muttered to Wang Chengde beside him as he walked: "Lao Wang, it seems that being famous is also good, you look at these guys in front of the headquarters, they didn't even look at our documents, and they didn't ask what they were here for, they just let them in, and it was definitely not okay to put it before." ”
Wang Chengde didn't take this matter to heart, it doesn't matter to him if he is famous or not, as long as it is beneficial to the troops, it is a good thing, seeing Li Yong muttering like this, he smiled and said: "Dayong, the chief must have a special mission for us to come, you guy put more attention on how to complete the task, don't think nonsense about being famous like this or something." ”
When they entered the house after shouting the report, Li Yong and Wang Chengde found that several leaders of the Yeji Division were basically there, and Mr. Peng also said with a smile: "Sit down and rest for a while, take a breath and drink some water, and then we will assign tasks." ”
The two of them were busy saluting several chiefs, and Li Yong replied with a puffed chest: "Report to the chief, we came here in a jeep, and we are not tired at all." ”
Mr. Peng: "Ha, have you forgotten that our hero brigade has more, and you have to rest for a while when you come by car, so you have to let our heroes take a breath." ”
Li Yong knew that this was Mr. Peng joking with him, but the words of the Hero Brigade came out of Mr. Peng's mouth and really made him a little embarrassed, and Wang Chengde on the side replied a little snortly: "Report to the chief, that, it's all the soldiers shouting nonsense, don't take it seriously." ”
Mr. Peng looked at the two of them with some amusement: "It's not a bad thing to call the Hero Brigade, the soldiers let them call if they like to call, but to sue them, heroes are not so easy to be, you must take practical actions, and prove that you are a well-deserved Hero Brigade." ”
The battle is very frequent, I haven't seen Mr. Peng and these chiefs of the headquarters for several months, Mr. Peng seems to be older than the last time he met Li Yong, with more white hair and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, Li Yong knows that the pressure on these chiefs is too great, not only to drag Hu Zongnan's hundreds of thousands of troops, but also to shoulder the security of the Central and Northwest Bureau, and the strength of the field army is very weak, which requires the Northwest Field Army to win every battle, A defeat is very likely to plunge the entire northwest war situation into a point of no return, but fortunately, in the two years or so of the combat field army has achieved good results, the troops have also made great progress, and the defeat summed up by later generations is just that the battle did not achieve the expected goal of the campaign and became a war of attrition, which is completely different from the so-called defeat of the Kuomintang army, I really don't know how the heads of these leaders grow.
Mr. Peng didn't wear a hat, he was wearing a wide gray military uniform, the cuffs of the military uniform were still a little damaged, and even the wires were exposed in some places.
Looking at Li Yong and Wang Chengde, who were upright and upright, Mr. Peng smiled rarely: "Since you are not tired and don't sit down, let's assign tasks, so as to leave you more time to prepare." ”
Mr. Peng walked back and forth a few steps, and said in his usual gentle tone: "Yesterday, the 258th Division of the Ma Jiajun caught up with us with the advantage of speed, in order to cover the main force to break away, the 10th Brigade of the 4th Column fought fiercely with the enemy for an afternoon, we won the battle, and pushed the 258th Division back, but it was a tragic victory, the casualties of the 10th Brigade were very large, and the combat attrition was almost 3,000, not counting those soldiers who were slightly injured and still insisted on fighting, Brigade Commander Gao was also wounded. ”
Li Yong was also secretly surprised when he heard Mr. Peng say this, of course he knew that the 10th Brigade was fighting in the back, but he didn't expect the casualties to be so large, the attrition of nearly 3,000 people shows that this battle will lose one-third of the combat effectiveness of a main brigade, the brigade commander is a senior commander in the army, even Brigade Commander Gao was wounded, and the battle was so tragic that Li Yong seemed to see the corpses and blood of the soldiers all over the ground.
Looking at Li Yong and Wang Chengde, who were a little surprised, Mr. Peng continued: "The cavalry of the Ma family army is very fierce, and the soldiers dare to play with their lives, but they are also beaten by us, listening to the soldiers of the tenth brigade, although their casualties are large, the casualties of the 258th division of the Ma family army are even greater, it is estimated that after this battle is fought, the enemy's cavalry is unlikely to come to the main force of our field army in recent times, and they do not have the courage, I and several leaders of the headquarters are worried about the transportation and supply of our field army's logistics, If this 258th division does not dare to come to our main force and specifically find the militia responsible for transporting food, it will be very head-scratching, the enemy is cavalry, and you can't catch it, you can't catch it, and you can't catch it, once they find an opportunity, the losses of local militia and civilian workers will not be small, I discussed with several leaders, and finally I thought of your brigade, and I want to use the advantage of your brigade's fast mobility speed to deal with the cavalry of the Ma Jiajun, and you don't need to be able to destroy the opponent, as long as you can drag them, Do you have confidence that you don't let these cavalry cause trouble for our transportation, even if you complete the mission? ”
Li Yong and Wang Chengde glanced at each other, and the two young commanders straightened their chests and replied to their commanders in a firm tone: "Please rest assured, the chief, resolutely complete the task." ”
At this time, a chief stood aside and asked, "Heh, so confident?" But faith alone is not enough, is there any concrete way? ”
Li Yong and Wang Chengde looked back and knew each other, who are they? Deputy Commander Liu in charge of logistics of the field army, Li Yong hurriedly stepped forward to salute and shout hello to the chief, Commander Liu waved his hand: "Okay, don't always salute or something, is there any way to say it, tell you, let you deal with the cavalry of the Ma Jiajun is my idea, if you don't fight well, I can't raise my head in front of Mr. Peng and Political Commissar Xi, hahaha." ”。
