In the great northwest, in addition to Hu Zongnan's central army, there is also the military force of Qinghai Ma Bufang, known as the Green Horse Army, the Green Horse Army is one of the most effective troops in all the local armies of the Kuomintang, with a total strength of 150,000 to 200,000, in the Lanzhou Campaign, the main force was wiped out by the Northwest Field Army, and the remnants fled in all directions, which brought great difficulties and hidden dangers to the later liberated area to suppress bandits. This is all an afterthought, so I won't mention it for the time being.

The third is the military strength of Ningxia Ma Hongkui, Ma Hongkui's Ningxia Majia Army has a total strength of more than 80,000 people, of which the 81st Army revolted before the war, was reorganized into the Second Army of the Northwest Military Region of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, the main force 128 Army was eliminated by the 19th Corps of the People's Liberation Army in the Jinji and Lingwu areas, military history called the Jinling Campaign, and some of the remaining troops surrendered to the People's Liberation Army with the upper echelons left behind by the Ma Jiajun, and some of them were scattered in place.

In addition to these three military forces that were resolved by the PLA, the Kuomintang also had a military force in the northwest region that was subordinate to the Central Army, which was the unit of the Northwest Military and Political Chief's Office, and the troops were called the 91st Army and the 120th Army.

The original intention of these two troops deployed in Lanzhou was to monitor and control the Erma army in the northwest, and not let their forces go out of Qinghai and Ningxia, Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang government meant that the Erma was nothing to be the emperor of the soil in the local area, but it could only be a partial area, and then it was impossible to expand the power, but I didn't expect that the situation would change too much after 49 years, the main force of the Kuomintang army was losing and retreating, and the central government was crumbling, in order to use Ma Bufang**, the Kuomintang government had to give him the title of director of the Northwest Military and Political Chief's Office, Ma Bufang, the great warlord of Qinghai, who was supposed to monitor and control Zhanì, became the boss of these two armies, and their central army, who thought they were of noble blood, also became subordinates.

The 91st Army and the 120th Army had a total of more than 40,000 troops, all fully equipped and well-armed. Before the Lanzhou Campaign, it was nominally under the command of Ma Bufang, the chief of the public office, but these officers and soldiers of the Central Army did not want to listen to Ma Bufang's orders at all, and the local turtles also wanted to command the Central Army? That was impossible, and Ma Bufang couldn't command them. In the eyes of these officers and soldiers of the Central Army, the only person who can command them is the deputy director of the Northwest Military and Political Chief's Office, Liu Ren in the Central Military System.

After Ma Bufang was appointed as the director of the Military and Political Chief's Office, he was full of ambition, and replaced all the officials in the Northwest Government with personnel of the Qingma Military System, leaving only one deputy director, Liu Ren, because Liu Ren was born in the Gui family, and he Ma Bufang was able to achieve his wish so smoothly and defeat his rival Ma Hongkui also completely followed the Gui line. In the entire Kuomintang army and government, the factions were extremely chaotic, there were local armies and the central army, and there were people in the Gui faction in the central army, the Whampoa faction and the civil engineering department, and the Kuomintang was defeated in its own hands. This statement is not unreasonable.

After the Battle of Lanzhou began, the 91st Army and the 120th Army immediately withdrew, and fought jointly with the Qingma Army. Why do you want to wipe out the communist army under the walls of Lanzhou, bullshit, what does it have to do with Ma Bufang's life or death, it is better to eliminate them with the hands of the People's Liberation Army, so tens of thousands of central officers and soldiers let the Qingma Army and the People's Liberation Army fight to the end without support.

Some people will think that if the Qingma Army and the Ningma Army, as well as the Kuomintang Central Army of the Northwest Military and Political Governor's Office, can unite, how the situation in the northwest will change will be even more confusing, and whether the PLA can win the battle is still between the two. However, history can only be history, and history cannot be assumed, and the grievances between the central and local armies of the Kuomintang are too deep to be reconciled, and the real history is that the united People's Liberation Army relied on rudimentary weaponry and personnel who did not have superiority. Hu Zongnan, Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui were eliminated one by one, and their next target was the Kuomintang 91st Army and 120th Army, which had become frightened birds.

Now Liu Ren is fleeing to the depths of the Hexi Corridor with these tens of thousands of horses, and more than 40,000 central troops, carrying a large amount of weapons and ammunition, are adopting a policy of not making contact with the People's Liberation Army and retreating quickly.

Liu Ren and these officers of the Central Army believed that the Northwest Field Army would enter rich Sichuan after solving the local forces in Qinghai and Ningxia. There are soldiers, food and supplies, and the troops can be replenished when they arrive, and the Hexi Corridor in the barren land is full of Gobi Desert, which has no attraction to the PLA, even if it wants to chase them, it is difficult, at least how to solve the supply of hundreds of thousands of troops of the PLA is a big problem, without the old liberated areas, food will be a big problem immediately, and they can hide and wait for the situation to change before trying to make a big cause. ”

These people believe that after World War II, the pattern of the United States and the Soviet Union vying for hegemony will soon be broken, and as soon as the Third World War breaks out, the United States will send troops, Chairman Chiang will make a comeback, and they can also show their ambitions again.

Tens of thousands of horses and horses are living on illusions, but there will always be a day when illusions will be shattered, and this day is getting faster and faster when the head of the Northwest Field Army has made up his mind.

It has to be the Central Army, although it has not been supplied for a long time, but the family is still very wealthy, the troops of the two armies, there are more than 1,000 cars alone, which is very remarkable, at that time, all the cars are very powerful, and it is too difficult for the troops of the People's Liberation Army to catch up with them.

By September of '49, the Northwest Field Army had made great progress in its development, and the troops' vision had also risen to a higher level; not only weapons and ammunition, but also automobiles and equipment had also been greatly improved compared with before, and the soldiers would no longer burn the captured cars as monsters, but would protect them with their hearts and contribute to their troops as if they were treasures.

But even so, cars are still very scarce and expensive in the PLA troops, and the vast majority of soldiers still have to march on foot, what to do? No war without a car? Don't chase the enemy? Of course not, Yiye's slogan is: If there are conditions, you must go up, and if you don't have conditions, you must also go up if you don't have conditions.

Since the day the people's army was founded, it has had no cars, tanks, and heavy artillery, and it still wins the war, and it can still kill them without cars.

The strategic deployment of the Northwest Field Army after the end of the Lanzhou Campaign was: 1. Use the Zhou Shi Division of the 18th Corps to pursue the remnants of Hu Zongnan. Second, use the 19th Corps to liberate Ningxia with Yang Dezhi and Li Zhimin's troops. Third, with the first corps of Wang Zhen's division and the second corps of Xu Guangda, they were divided into two roads and advanced to the depths of the Hexi Corridor.

The Northwest Field Army pointed to the Kuomintang 91st Army and 120th Army, which had fled to the Jiuquan area.

We can't let them run anymore, and if they run again, they will go to Xinjiang, which will bring relatively big trouble to solving the Xinjiang problem in the future, so the head of the Noji Division is determined to solve their forces.

The specific arrangements were: Commander Xu Guangda's Second Corps advanced along the extreme right side of the Lanxin Highway, the Sixth Army took the edge of the Tengger Desert, and the Third and Fourth Armies first captured Wuwei and then Jiuquan.

The first corps can draw out only one second army, that is, the old unit of Li Yong's ** brigade, marched north along the highway between Xining and Zhangye, climbed the Qilian Mountains, and directly took Zhangye, an important town between Wuwei and Jiuquan.

In order to increase the mobility of the troops on the long march, Ye Si transferred a regiment of artillery and a tank battalion directly under him to Commander Xu Guangda's Second Corps.

The Northwest Field Army, which has been greatly developed, is no longer the Miga rifle of two years ago, and in addition to the four main corps, there are also a large number of troops directly under the Wild Division, including artillery and tank troops.

At the headquarters of the field army, what Mr. Peng and several leaders were studying, Deputy Commander Zhang Zongxun pointed to a point on the map and said: "Boss, you have transferred the artillery and tank corps of the field division to the Second Corps, but the First Corps can only draw out a Second Corps, so is the strength of the Second Army a little weak." ”

Zhang Zongxun is the deputy commander in charge of operations in the field army, and he has to think about everything in his head, so it is more appropriate for him to raise such a question.

Mr. Peng smiled rarely: "Hehe, a little anxious?" It doesn't matter, don't look at the enemy's two armies, it depends on when, now they may only care about fleeing for their lives, and don't have the heart to fight with us, don't look at the fact that we only have a second army, which is enough, and that's it. ”

Mr. Peng here paused: "The total strength of our Second Army is not less than that of the enemy." ”

Commander Zhang Zongxun's eyes lit up, and he immediately guessed something: "Boss, who are you—transfer them back again?" Hehe, is it a bit of a toss. ”

"Toss it, toss it, who let us fight, I believe that they will be able to overcome difficulties and successfully complete the task, after coming out for so long, it should be rebuilt."

Mr. Peng and Deputy Commander Zhang seemed to be playing dumb riddles, but the leaders next to them smiled heartily, they all knew that the two of them were talking about which unit.

Of course, the troops that can be transferred by the head of the headquarters must be extremely mobile.

The general content of the order was: Order the ** Brigade to restore the structure of the Second Army from now on, cooperate with the main force of the army, and complete the tasks assigned by the Ye Division and the Corps.

There was no task, but first of all, there was a clause that in order to restore the system, it was necessary to catch up with their old troops, and the time on the battlefield did not wait for anyone, Li Yong and Wang Chengde immediately bid farewell to Commander Yang Dezhi of the 19th Corps, Commissar Li Zhi, and Commander Zeng Siyu of the 64th Army.
