Chapter 526: Sending a general is better than agitating a general

As for the high-power radio stations of the Japanese military system that are needed at the moment, there is no need to go to the logistics warehouse or the local military district to mobilize it. The military airfield stationed in Harbin has a ready-made radio station that serves as a backup radio station for liaison with various airports. After receiving Guo Bingxun's order, this high-power radio station of the Japanese army was loaded onto a C47 transport plane in the shortest possible time and rushed to Linxi Airport.

However, the operator, Guo Bingxun, was not selected in Wang Guangyu's headquarters. Instead, they selected a telegraph operator who was proficient in Japanese, one translator and one telegrapher, plus one of the best communications staff officers, and Ye Chao, who would follow Yang Zhen to work with Yang Zhen from the New Fourth Army to work in the Anti-Japanese Federation after obtaining Yang Zhen's consent, was airlifted to Linxi Airport together with the radio station and a radio confusion plan formulated by Guo Bingxun after careful consideration. As for the detailed questions, especially in the light of the fact that it is likely that a small number of Japanese troops have already withdrawn from the Sila Murong River, the answers to some of the key questions that may have been raised by the Sixth Army Command may not have been considered in great detail.

But Guo Bingxun has been as thoughtful as possible. The reason why he transferred Ye Chao, deputy director of the Fifth Department, who was in charge of formulating the multi-service comprehensive training plan, was to give a certain answer as much as possible in dealing with the questions of the Japanese Sixth Army.

After Ye Chao was transferred to the work of the Anti-Japanese Federation, because of his outstanding ability, he was very valued by Guo Bingxun. After five months of systematic study and training, at Guo Bingxun's request, the original order of the deputy chief of staff in charge of training in the production and construction corps was changed, and Guo Bingxun was left in one place to serve as the chief of the fourth section in charge of large-scale synthetic training.

Ye Chao's adaptability is quite good, he thinks about things comprehensively, and his comprehension of the intentions of his superiors is also quite strong. After being transferred to the Anti-Japanese Federation, the comprehensive command capability has been greatly improved through systematic study. Guo Bingxun asked him to go to Alukorqin Banner to serve as the commander of this temporary Seventh Division, which could still partially make up for the loopholes that might be caused by some hasty formulation of the plan.

Still, this can be cumbersome when a rough plan is already in place. But this is Guo Bingxun's character, either don't do it, or do the best you can. In his opinion, if the higher authorities consider it in detail, the troops below will pay less and have a greater hope of success.

His approach seems to many people to be a bit of a mother-in-law, and they also think that as a superior, he is also a little too rigid. But Guo Bingxun has always thought so, and he has done so. No matter how big or small, everything must be done personally, this habit developed in the absence of qualified staff officers has been retained by Guo Bingxun.

After sending Ye Chao away to perform his new duties, Guo Bingxun personally asked for a phone call between Ma Chunsheng and Wang Xiaoming. Clearly put Yang Zhen's requirements and tactical intentions, and tell them in detail. Orders them to complete all handovers within the specified time in accordance with the latest requirements of the headquarters, regardless of difficulties.

It was obvious that Ma Chunsheng on the other end of the phone was very reluctant to be replaced from Xinjing at this time. Although this is not the first time that the headquarters has given him an order, he has always been slow to move and is reluctant to hand over to Wang Xiaoming.

At this moment, because of the relatively large losses in the previous battle, his Ninth Division was replenished and repaired for a short time at the junction between Xinjing and Jiutai, and it could be handed over at any time as long as Wang Xiaoming arrived. But this guy just kept dragging it out, and he didn't go back to Jiutai on the Xinjing front.

In the eyes of Ma Chunsheng, who has long been willing to win Xinjing, the temptation of Xinjing is much greater than that of other directions. Even Lin Xixiang, which was the main operational direction and purpose of this battle, was not as attractive to Xinjing as he was.

When he had already touched the edge of the Xinjing District, and even a small force had infiltrated Xinjing. Pulling him out of the Xinjing battlefield, he naturally wouldn't be too reluctant. Moreover, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that his troops were directly reduced from two infantry divisions, plus two independent cavalry regiments and two tank training battalions to one division plus some mechanized and cavalry clusters.

For the generals, none of the troops who are willing to command themselves have been transferred less and less, for Ma Chunsheng, who has always used troops in the early Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Huaiyin, Han Xin, and the more the better. The troops that can be commanded by his subordinates are becoming less and less adjusted, and they are quite depressed. What's more, this time he was even more reluctant to adjust from the main direction to the secondary direction in his eyes.

But this time, Guo Bingxun's attitude is very clear and quite tough. Tell him directly on the phone that if he can't complete the handover at the appointed time, then the headquarters will be replaced. If you change people without changing your mind, this is the final decision of the headquarters.

If he hesitated, the headquarters transferred Du Kaishan back to replace him in this roundabout task. As long as Guo Bingxun is still the chief of staff of the Anti-Japanese Federation, he will stay there until the end of the war, and he will not think about returning to the main force, and even the second-line troops of the local army subdivisions will not have his place.

In fact, shortly after Ma Chunsheng was transferred to the Xinjing battlefield; Guo Bingxun was very dissatisfied with his repeated failure to follow the orders of the headquarters and his unauthorized actions. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't pick a replacement candidate now, Guo Bingxun, who had never interfered in the appointment of cadres, would have proposed a replacement to Yang Zhen a long time ago.

In order to prevent Ma Chunsheng from acting slowly and delaying the entire fighter plane in this rather critical roundabout operation, Guo Bingxun directly gave a death order. He never lightly threatened people with words such as dismissal and transfer, and even directly said the words of dismissal and transfer to the production and construction corps in the heart of all the main forces of the Anti-Japanese Federation.

Originally, he was a little afraid of Guo Bingxun, and knew that the chief of staff has always been a person who has always said what he says, so he will do it. In Guo Bingxun's tough tone, Ma Chunsheng, who knew that he was not joking, did not dare to bargain. Honestly, in accordance with the requirements of the headquarters, he handed over the command of the Xinjing battlefield to Wang Xiaoming.

Putting down the phone in his hand, Guo Bingxun hesitated for a moment, but still drafted two telegrams himself. The first is to give Du Kaishan a way to calm down and not act hastily, let alone act without orders. The three divisions in his hands are the last reserve of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the entire West Manchurian battlefield, and they must not lightly expose their targets.

The second is to give Chen Hanzhang on the Tongliao battlefield to let him closely monitor the changes in the enemy situation on his flanks, especially in the direction of Kailu and in the rear banner of the left wing of Horqin. In addition to telling him to pay more attention to his flanks, Guo Bingxun only gave Chen Hanzhang a detailed report on the battle situation on the battlefield in Linxi. As for the rest, Guo Bingxun didn't even say a word.

Chen Hanzhang is the most capable of the first-level cadres of the Anti-United Nations Column, and he is one of the few cadres who have both military and political skills. In Guo Bingxun's private opinion, Chen Hanzhang's multi-arm command, as well as his ability to comprehend new tactics and tactics, are still above Wang Guangyu, whom Yang Zhen attaches the most importance to. His talent is the best among all the first-level cadres of the column.

And the difference in a person's ability and level means that the level of self-esteem, the stronger the ability of the person's self-esteem. As the youngest of the first-level cadres of the Anti-United Nations Column, and the one with the best comprehensive ability, Chen Hanzhang's self-esteem can be said to be quite strong.

Originally, Guo Bingxun thought that Chen Hanzhang would complete the battle plan of the headquarters before Wang Guangyu. Because the terrain of Tongliao is more conducive to giving full play to the advantages of mechanized troops than Linxi. Moreover, as the first batch of mechanized divisions of the Japanese army, the equipment level of the 23rd Division was also higher than that of the 14th Division, which was the main defender of the Linxi battlefield.

Although the air strangulation battle at the beginning of the year almost wiped out the vitality of the 23rd Division. However, in the first half of the year, under the reckless replenishment of the Kwantung Army, the 23rd Division had already recovered ninety percent of its combat effectiveness. Although the replenishment of tanks has not yet recovered to the situation at the beginning of the year, the rest of the heavy equipment has been replenished.

Moreover, as the so-called Manchurian and Mongolian border area, the density and completeness of the Linxi military fortifications are much higher than that of Tongliao in depth. Although there is no large fortress group like in the East Manchurian region, the so-called border fortifications are quite complete. Moreover, the line from Linxi to Bahrain Right Banner and Chifeng is the southern foot of the Great Xing'an Mountains, and the terrain is much more complex than that of Tongliao, which is located in the impact plain of the West Liao River and the Horqin Sandy Land.

However, Guo Bingxun did not expect that on the Tongliao Battlefield, where the equipment and firepower were the same, and the ratio of troops was even higher than that of the Linxi Battlefield, Chen Hanzhang's progress was far slower than that of the Linxi Battlefield, which was far inferior to his. This somewhat made Guo Bingxun feel quite surprised.

Chen Hanzhang's excessively strong self-esteem even went to a certain extreme in Guo Bingxun's opinion. He could not tolerate that in the middle of the battle, under equal conditions, progress would fall behind any of the fraternal forces. For such a person, the method of agitation is more motivating than outspoken criticism.

As long as Chen Hanzhang can take Tongliao before the Kwantung Army's next intention unfolds, then the Kwantung Army will lose a fundamental foothold no matter what moves it makes. Because in Guo Bingxun's view, no matter whether the focus of the Kwantung Army's all-out counterattack this time is Tongliao or not.

But one thing is clear. That is, as long as Chen Hanzhang takes the front line of Tongliao and Kailu and defeats the resistance of the 14th Division, the game of chess of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the entire Ximan battlefield will be completely alive. At that time, Tongliao and the Linxi battlefield were linked, and in addition to the vast areas north of Tongliao and west of Anguang and Zhenlai, which had been gradually cleared, a complete depth was formed, and the initiative of the entire campaign was firmly grasped in the hands of the Anti-Japanese Union.

Even if the Kwantung Army blew up the embankment of the Songhua River and separated the anti-coalition forces north of Xinjing from behind it, it would not be able to change the unfavorable situation of the overall battle situation. Even if the Kwantung Army mobilizes a few more divisions and regiments to devote themselves to the West Manchurian battlefield, in the face of the impact of hundreds of tanks joined by Wang Guangyu and Chen Hanzhang, I am afraid they will not be able to regain the initiative.

Looking at Guo Bingxun's telegram to Chen Hanzhang and Du Kaishan, Yang Zhen shook his head and said nothing. He still understands Guo Bingxun's thoughts, thoughts and intentions. To be honest, he also wanted to take Tongliao as much as possible and open up direct contact with the Linxi battlefield.

However, this 14th Division was able to resist the offensive under the cover of Chen Hanzhang's 200 tanks, so that this fierce general, who had stirred up the entire northern part of Korea last year, made such slow progress in such a long period of time, presumably the problem will not be as simple as it seems.

Guo Bingxun's idea is not wrong, but Yang Zhen is worried that some things are often not achieved quickly. Indeed, if Tongliao is taken, the initiative of the entire campaign will be completely in the hands of the anti-Japanese alliance. But many things can not be solved in a hurry, judging from the overall situation now, Chen Hanzhang is fighting steadily, and it is more prudent to wait until Ma Chunsheng's operation is launched before carrying out a general attack.
