Chapter 266: The reinforcements of the Noji Division of the Battle of Xifu

The Teaching Brigade of the Sixth Column repelled two attacks by the 82nd Division of the Tsing Ma Army, and although it inflicted a lot of casualties on the enemy, its own casualties were not small, and in both battles, the soldiers relied on their bayonets to fight the enemy under very dangerous conditions.

The brigade commander Chen Haihan was very anxious, he knew very well that the enemy had not used all his forces, what if the enemy launched another large-scale attack? How to defeat the 82nd Division is very problematic.

Noji's order must be resolutely carried out, and this point must not be discounted, and for this reason, this commander, who is very capable of fighting, used his brains to think of a way to block the attack of the 82nd Division.

The attacking enemy cavalry is fast and has a large range of attacks, and the speed of maneuver allows the troops to easily concentrate superior forces.

Several of the main regiments of the teaching brigade have already been used, because there are too many areas to defend, and it is no longer possible for the teaching brigade to use one or two regiments into battle and one regiment to be reserved as a reserve, as in the past, and the whole brigade no longer has any surplus troops.

Later, Brigade Commander Chen organized all the personnel of the brigade headquarters and logistics to form a temporary commando team, which was personally commanded by himself and prepared to be used at the most severe time.

This improvised organized assault team was prepared by Brigade Commander Chen Haihan to plug the gap, and there was no way to do it.

When the teaching brigade felt that the strength was tight, the phone in the brigade headquarters rang, and Brigade Commander Chen, who picked up the phone, heard a deep voice from the microphone: "Chen Haihan?" I'm Peng Dehuai, what's the situation going on there? ”

Hearing the voice from the microphone, Brigade Commander Chen immediately reported loudly: "Report to Mr. Peng, we repelled the enemy's two charges in a row, our casualties are not small, the cavalry of the 82nd Division is very fierce, although the two attacks were repelled by us, but they were all rushed into the position by the enemy, and finally the problem can be solved with bayonets and grenades, our brigade lacks rapid-fire firepower, and it is very difficult to rely on the soldiers' rifles to fight against the cavalry, I have mobilized all the logistics personnel of the brigade to form a temporary commando, led by me, Prepare to fight your enemies to the end. ”

After listening to Brigade Commander Chen Haihan's report, the voice in the microphone pondered for a while and said: "Chen Haihan, knowing that your troops are very tight, I will transfer the cavalry division of the headquarters and the independent regiment of the second column to you, they are all under your command, you have the final say in how the battle is fought, neither I nor your Commander Luo interfere with your command, but there is one thing, we must hold our position, and we must not let the Ma Jiajun break through our defense line." ”

Hearing that General Peng was going to transfer the cavalry division of the headquarters and the independent regiment of the second column to him as reinforcements, Brigadier Commander Chen Haihan, who was feeling that his troops were insufficient, was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

The cavalry division of the headquarters has not been formed for a long time, and it has not fought many decent battles, and it is not clear what the combat effectiveness is, but I heard that during the last Yichuan Campaign, it followed a Kuomintang brigade that came out of Yan'an to compete, and the results were good, but I don't know anything else.

However, the independent regiment of the second column itself knows that not only has more personnel than other regiment-level troops, but also has extremely sophisticated weapons and equipment, and its combat effectiveness is very strong, and the commander is also very methodical, and the army has fought a lot of tough battles for more than a year, and it is a trump card unit under the command of Commander Wang of the second column.

Brigade Commander Chen Haihan took the microphone and shouted happily: "Thank you Mr. Peng and the leaders for their care, with these reinforcements and the support of our comrades, we will definitely be able to hold our position." ”

Mr. Peng in the microphone still said in his unhurried tone: "Don't be happy too early, remember, I can only transfer these forces to you, Pei Changhui's offensive in front is very powerful, the fourth column has suffered heavy casualties, and other units of the field army can't move, you have to make full use of the existing strength in your hands to maneuver with the 82nd Division, and you don't want to thank me, the independent regiment of the second column was offered by Wang Huzi to support you, if you want to thank Wang Huzi, he also told me that their regiment has a lot of cars, The maneuver is very fast, just used to deal with Ma Bufang's cavalry, and I want to tell you that their little commander has a very good way to fight, and I will discuss it with him if there is a situation. ”

Brigadier Chen Haihan said happily on the phone: "Do you know Mr. Peng, the famous Second Column Independent Regiment, we will definitely cooperate to defeat the enemy's rampant energy." ”

Li Yong and Wang Chengde, who received the orders of Ye Si and the column, led the whole regiment to hurry out of the city and rushed to the position of the teaching brigade at the speed of a forced march.

Li Yong was well aware of the current situation of the teaching brigade, and if the reinforcements were not in time, it was very likely that the enemy would break through their positions, and the field army would be exposed to the enemy on their backs, and it would be too late to pat the thigh.

The position of the brigade control was about ten kilometers away from the main city of Baoji, and the roads were not repaired for many years, and it was very difficult for cars to get through.

Judging from the number and weapons of the cavalry, it is definitely not a communications and reconnaissance unit, the communication and reconnaissance unit is not such a large scale, and Noji only has a cavalry unit that can fight independently, everyone can know that this unit must be a cavalry division directly under the headquarters.

The soldiers on horseback greeted the soldiers of the Independent Regiment very warmly, and from the mouths of the soldiers, everyone immediately understood that the task of this unit was the same as that of the Independent Regiment, which was to support the Sixth Column Teaching Brigade.

Since the tasks were the same, the two armies marched side by side, and the cavalry division ceded the only road that was not too wide to the independent regiment, while it let the horses walk in the field.

Under the road conditions at that time, the car may not be much faster than the war horse, and the speed of the trotting of the war horse is about the same, and the road requirements of the cavalry are much smaller than that of the independent regiment with a large number of cars and artillery, so the speed of the two troops marching together is quite the same.

Several war horses snorted and ran to the jeep where Li Yong, Wang Chengde and others were riding, and someone introduced to Li Yong that this was the commander of the X division of the cavalry division, and Li Yong hurriedly let his jeep stop on the side of the road, and then got out of the car to salute the commander.

Although it is not a unit, it is a division-level cadre, and it is necessary to salute when meeting (before February 49, due to the small number of personnel in the Northwest Field Army, all combat units below the column were brigade establishments, and this cavalry division was considered an alternative).

The commander looked Li Yong up and down a few times, returned a salute and said, "It's the head of the Independent Regiment, I've heard of the name for a long time, but I haven't seen it, I didn't expect it to be so young." ”

Li Yong hurriedly replied: "Thank you for the compliment, I am Li Yong, the commander of the Independent Regiment of the Second Column, if you have any orders, please ask the chief for instructions." ”

Li Yong said this with politeness, as soon as we met, they were not your direct leaders, what instructions could they have, but they should be polite, how can they say that they are also old-timers.

The commander also waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, Commander Li, what is the chief or not, although my unit is called a cavalry division, it cannot be compared with the 82nd Division of the Kuomintang, there are only three cavalry regiments, each regiment does not even have 1,000 people, and now counting the personnel of our division headquarters and logistics, there are only 3,000 people, not necessarily more than the people of your independent regiment. ”

Hearing what this division commander said, Li Yong was also a little embarrassed, knowing that this unit was a unit directly under the Noji, and people always marched with the headquarters, so it was not unusual for him to know about himself.

The military situation was urgent, Li Yong got into the jeep and then exchanged information with the commander of the cavalry division, and the two of them learned from this chat that although it was the first time for the two troops to march together, and it was the first time for the two to meet, it was not the first time that they had cooperated in combat.

In the last battle of Yichuan, the independent regiment held the fork position, and behind the independent regiment, it was this cavalry division that blocked the reinforcements from Yan'an for them, and this time it was the second time that they fought together.

Li Yong hurriedly expressed his gratitude on behalf of the whole regiment, and the division commander said with a smile: "Commander Li, it is a foreign way to say thank you, do you only complain about the bitterness when you fight at the fork in the road, what do we count, we just fought with a brigade of the Kuomintang, it is not a big deal." ”

The two units were the only two mobile forces of the field army, and the marching speed was very fast, and the mood was very anxious, and it did not take long to rush to the position held by the teaching brigade.

Brigadier Commander Chen Haihan was very happy to see the reinforcements he was looking forward to, and the three units of different formations immediately held a pre-war preparation meeting together.

At the meeting, Brigade Commander Chen briefly explained the situation to Li Yong and the commander of the cavalry division.

Chen Haihan was born in Shanghang County, Fujian Province in 1914, joined the Youth League in 1928, and joined the Party in 1930.
