Chapter 462: A Great Strategic Turnaround
The Battle of Fumei had become a one-sided trend since then, and the main force of the Northwest Field Army was about to encircle the enemy, and the Independent Brigade took advantage of this excellent opportunity to rush forward. Updated this latest chapter
According to the plan formulated by the independent brigade before the war, the tank battalion and the first battalion were the first attack echelon, and other units followed behind, but after the battle, the tank troops rushed faster and faster, so fast that the soldiers of the first battalion were about to be unable to keep up.
Li Jiangguo, the commander of the first battalion, had no choice but to find Jiang Tiexiong, the commander of the tank battalion, and asked them to slow down the tank battalion a little, so that the soldiers of the two battalions could rush together.
Jiang Tiexiong didn't eat this, and replied with a laugh: "Lao Li, what's slow or not, infantry and tanks work together to pay attention to timing, in order to effectively deal with the enemy's individual anti-tank firepower when attacking, the attack speed of the troops cannot be too fast, and it must also cooperate with your infantry, now you look at it again, the enemy is eager to give birth to an extra leg, what combat effectiveness can there be, it doesn't matter if you have your battalion or not, you just follow behind to capture prisoners, hahaha." ”
From the surrender of the Second Regiment of the Kuomintang Tank to the complete loss of the slippery habits of Kuomintang officers, the way of speaking and doing things has been integrated with the troops of the People's Liberation Army, and the methods he used to deal with Li Jiangguo at this time were no different from those of the old Eighth Road.
Li Jiangguo's face was full of depression, Lao Jiang, this guy is too cunning, it is obvious that he wants to compete with the first battalion, but he quibbled that it is enough to let the first battalion wait in the back to capture the prisoners, and the enemy in front has them to deal with, this kid is too bad, worse than the Kuomintang reactionaries, but there is nothing he can do, this guy is right, chasing these routs does not require any infantry and tanks to fight together, and running fast is the last word.
The mountains and fields were full of people, weapons were thrown everywhere, the defeat of the troops was like a mountain, and the rout of the Kuomintang tank troops was like the last straw that crushed the elephants.
The troops of the independent brigade kept attacking the enemy's depth, and the brigade commander Li Yong also kept using walkie-talkies to order the troops to do this and that.
The battle of the independent brigade seems to have been fought very smoothly, but in fact it has not been less, not only a large amount of weapons and ammunition have been consumed, but even the casualties are not small, especially Gao Xiang's heavy howitzer battalion, which is the unit with the greatest loss in the whole brigade, in the hard-to-face artillery battle with the enemy, the artillery alone has lost more than a dozen, which makes the battalion commander Gao Xiang feel distressed and have to scold his mother.
After listening to the report, Li Yong comforted him: "This is also a helpless thing, the artillery of the Kuomintang is not a cotton bag, the shells can kill people like the same, it is impossible to fight without any losses, the artillery is broken, it is nothing, as long as we are still there, we will be there." ”
The three armies surrounded by the Kuomintang are the authentic Central Army, and it is easy to do it if it is the Central Army, and the soldiers all know that the Central Army is rich, and robbing them is the shortcut to making a fortune, so the brigade commander Li Yong ordered the troops to grab as long as they see good things, and whoever strikes first will make meritorious service.
The soldiers are familiar with this kind of work, and they chase after them with their feet, and the targets of tanks and artillery are large, and if you don't believe it, you can't get them back, and even Gao Xiang chased after them with the men drawn out of their battalion, according to this guy's statement, their artillery battalion said that they would make up for the losses and not stop if they couldn't catch the artillery.
Chase and chase, from the afternoon until dark, when the troops are still chasing, I don't know how far they ran out, and then the political commissar Wang Chengde reminded: "Dayong, it's almost, you can't chase it anymore, and if you chase it down, the troops will be chased away, and if you have a temporary order, you will be blind." ”
Li Yong nodded, thinking that Wang Chengde's reminder was right, and he hurriedly ordered the troops to stop the pursuit, okay, he would accept it when he saw it, fortunately, the communication system of the independent brigade was relatively powerful, and the troops who received the order in time stopped.
Commanders at all levels happily came back to report to Li Yong and Wang Chengde that the battalion had caught tanks, that battalion had caught heavy machine guns, and who had captured how many prisoners.
The latest to come back was the battalion commander Gao Xiang of the artillery battalion and the soldiers he led, this guy chased all the way to the field artillery position set up by the Kuomintang in the back, that is, the artillery position that was engaged in a life-and-death struggle with them.
When he led people to the Kuomintang artillery position, the Kuomintang soldiers had long since disappeared, but fortunately, the artillery was still there, Gao Xiang counted before and after, and there were at least twenty or thirty pieces that could still be used, and there were at least twenty or thirty pieces that were not damaged.
Other units of the independent brigade are scrambling to grab artillery, tanks, and heavy machine guns, but Li Yong quietly stopped the battalion commander Sun Quanhou and instructor He Cuihua of the baggage battalion at this time, Li Yong told the two of them, your battalion can't do the same nonsense as others, those artillery tanks and other battalions and companies will be fished out, the main target of your baggage battalion is the enemy's medical and health care and all kinds of communication equipment, as well as a large number of shells, bullets, cars and fuel, etc., all have to be brought back, don't look at these things are not very inconspicuous, Without them, the independent brigade would not be able to play.
Lao Sun didn't say anything, he, the chief steward of the independent brigade, knew the importance of these materials, He Cuihua was reluctant to carry out the order, and the girl muttered as she walked: "The battle is not fished out, and even the artillery and tanks are not allowed to be robbed, if it goes on like this, our baggage battalion will have no future." ”
Lao Sun smiled, and didn't explain anything to He Cuihua, but he knew it in his heart, and Lao Sun thought, what do you know about this girl, you can win a battle with artillery and tanks alone? ? There is no fuel and shells, these guys are still a bunch of Fei Tie, don't look at how they are in this battalion and that battalion, they will all be stupid without our baggage battalion.
Fortunately, there are not a few people who have the idea of Li Yong and Sun Quanhou in the independent brigade, such as Hu Xiaolian, the head of the health team, who led the health team to rescue the wounded while not forgetting the enemy's medical equipment and medicines, and the order she gave to the health team was that Hu Xiaoling, the deputy leader, was responsible for treating the wounded, and she took some people to collect equipment and medicines.
Hu Xiaolian also took into account various reasons for doing this, the deputy captain Hu Xiaoling was a full-time nurse in the Kuomintang hospital, and it was more appropriate for her to lead the team to treat the wounded, but to let her lead people to grab things everywhere, Hu Xiaoling was not as good as her, a veteran in the independent brigade.
It was not until midnight that the Independent Brigade settled down, the troops had a good meal, the gunfire on the battlefield gradually subsided, and the entire Northwest Field Army was very busy, and all units were busy counting the captured and spoils.
In the early morning of 14 July 1949, the sunshine illuminated the ancient battlefield after several days of fierce fighting, the sound of guns and artillery had completely silenced, and the First Field Army, under the command of Mr. Peng and the leaders of the First Field Army, once again won a great victory in the northwest battlefield.
In the Battle of Fumei, the Northwest Field Army completely annihilated the three main forces of the Kuomintang Central Army Hu Zongnan 3 and 65, a total of more than 60,000 people, so far, Hu Zongnan, the former king of the northwest, no longer has the strength and courage to fight with the PLA, and retreated to the Qinling Mountains with less than 100,000 remnants.
Beginning with Hu Zongnan's attack on Yan'an in April 7, March, the Northwest Field Army continued to fight with the enemy, and after more than two years of arduous fighting, it finally won the final and decisive victory, and Hu Zongnan's more than 300,000 Central Army suffered heavy losses under the uninterrupted blows of the People's Liberation Army.
The Battle of Fumei was a key battle at a major strategic turning point in the Northwest Theater, and the First Field Army of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) changed from a relative advantage to an absolute advantage.
The total strength of the Kuomintang in the northwest battlefield fell from about 350,000 before the battle to less than 300,000 combined strength of the two horse coalition forces and Hu Zongnan.
However, the total strength of Yiye has increased from 400,000 to about 450,000, and most of the additional personnel are prisoners and some local militiamen who have joined the army.
The victory of the battle was the crystallization of the painstaking efforts of the cadres and soldiers of the Northwest Field Army, and Mr. Peng and the leaders of the field army skillfully took advantage of the enemy's various contradictions and fought a beautiful battle of annihilation when the total strength was roughly the same.
The enemy is 350,000 and our army is 400,000, and how to fight a war of annihilation will test the wisdom of the leaders of the PLA at all levels, and the key to the battle lies in the fact that our army has used the 100,000 men of the 19 th Corps to contain the 200,000 men of the Kuomintang and the Second Ma Coalition Army, and has used the absolute main force of the 1st Corps Wang Zhen, the 2nd Corps Xu Guangda, and the 18th Corps Zhou Shidi, with a total of 300,000 people in the three corps, to encircle and annihilate Hu Zongnan's 150,000 men.
The People's Liberation Army used 300,000 against Hu Zongnan's 150,000, and Peng Lao was not so big as to want to eat the enemy in one bite in this case, but used 300,000 people from three corps to encircle and annihilate three of Hu Zongnan's 150,000 troops and 60,000 people, that is to say, after Peng Lao and the leaders of the field army continued to maneuver and move, before the start of the Battle of Fumei, the ratio of our army's strength to the enemy was 300,000 to 60,000, that is to say, Peng Lao once again created a battlefield miracle.
The officers of the Kuomintang are not fools, and they also know the importance of concentrating troops, but they are too far worse than Mr. Peng in the tactical use of concentrating forces to fight a war of annihilation, and the difference is not a grade
