Chapter 185: Liu Changshun

In fact, Yang Zhen's estimate is still very accurate. According to Liu Changshun's current mood, Yang Zhen is afraid that talking to him can only backfire. Far from relieving his feelings, it will add a lot of pressure to him.

With Yang Zhen's somewhat irritable personality now, according to Guo Bingxun's mood after talking with him today, I'm afraid it's not as simple as getting angry. He hates that iron is not steel, and if he can't make it, he will break his own rule that he is not allowed to physically punish his subordinates, and he will come up directly with two feet.

As Yang Zhen said, Guo Bingxun is humble, has high self-cultivation, and sees problems accurately. At first, after a conversation, Liu Changshun was not only convinced, but also saw his own shortcomings, as well as the gap with Wang Guangyu and Guo Bingxun. However, the heart is convinced, but the later development made Guo Bingxun, who has always been modest-tempered, angry enough.

Guo Bingxun, who had seen that his conversation with Liu Changshun had achieved the effect Yang Zhen wanted, smiled slightly and said in a somewhat relaxed tone: "The commander has great expectations for you, and the reason why he didn't talk to you today is not because of other reasons, nor because he doesn't pay attention to you." He is afraid of adding some unnecessary burden to you. ”

"He sent you to be the commander of the northward detachment this time, not only because your second regiment now has fewer recruits than other troops and is relatively complete, but to give you a chance, give you a chance to correctly understand your shortcomings, and give you a chance to stand up again."

"In fact, in addition to the fact that the troops are being replenished and training is inseparable from people, whether it is Wang Guangyu or Du Kaishan, this northward march is more suitable than you. Wang Guangyu was the deputy commander of the Fourth Army of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and he had been alone for many years, and had fought guerrilla warfare in North Manchuria for many years. Both the environment and the experience are more suitable than yours. ”

Although Du Kaishan has less experience than Wang Guangyu. But I have already told you just now, Du Kaishan is bold and careful, and he dares to ponder and fight when encountering problems. This time you are alone, although he is not as good as Wang Guangyu, but he is more suitable than you. ”

"But this time, the commander chose you and entrusted you with such an important task, but he made a lot of determination and took a lot of risks. Even in order to ensure that this sortie can go smoothly and allow you to successfully complete the task, the commander even transferred Ma Chunsheng to you as the chief of staff, not to mention, and specially transferred the deputy commander of the first artillery battalion from the artillery regiment who had fought with you in Jiamusi to command the reinforced artillery. ”

"The task of opening up the northbound passage for the whole army is extremely important, and it is even related to whether our army can survive and develop in the future. The commander gave you this task against the crowd, and specially dispatched elite soldiers to strengthen you. It can be seen that he attaches great importance to you. ”

"Of course, I'm not telling you this to increase your stress. Before talking to you, I asked the commander if he would explain to you the importance of this northward mission. The commander hesitated, but in the end he demanded that I have to explain it to you. ”

"The commander asked me to tell you the truth about the importance of the mission, because I believe that you can handle this relationship well. Whether it can turn into pressure or motivation is up to you. ”

"I'm talking to you today in the hope that you'll be able to stand up on your own. Find out your own shortcomings and correct them. It's good to have self-esteem, but you have to put yourself in the right position and find out where you really are from others, so that you can keep up with others. ”

Speaking of this, Guo Bingxun sighed slightly and said: "The commander has good intentions for you, and in order for you to truly mature, he even does not hesitate to gamble on the future development of the army." As for whether you can fulfill this wish of the commander, it depends on your future performance. No one can help you but yourself. ”

Guo Bingxun's sigh and the previous words smashed like a hammer on Liu Changshun's heart, whose heart knot had been opened. He didn't expect Yang Zhen to make such a big determination for his good intentions.

Liu Changshun, whose eyes were a little red from Guo Bingxun's last few words, looked at Guo Bingxun, gritted his teeth and said, "Chief of Staff, please go back and tell the commander that this time I will definitely not live up to his trust in me again." I don't dare to say that I will guarantee the completion of the task, but if I don't fight well in this battle and live up to his expectations, I, Liu Changshun, will not come back to see him. Either commit suicide and apologize, or die on the battlefield. ”

Hearing Liu Changshun's assurance, Guo Bingxun was slightly stunned, but instead of being half happy, he stirred up his fire: "Bastard, you Liu Changshun is really a fucking bastard." If I talk to you so much, is it just that if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent? ”

"You are the commander, the supreme commander of this northward advance. The headquarters handed over such an important task to you, and you don't think about how to complete the task, but you think that you can't fight well, and you will commit suicide if you don't have the face to come back and see people? Are you worthy of the commander's hard work for you, as well as your subordinates? You bastard. ”

"I tell you Liu Changshun clearly, if you don't have confidence in completing this mission, you should fucking say it earlier, don't harm others and yourself. Can I then order someone to be replaced? There are more damn people in this world, and there are a lot of you Liu Changshun. ”

Seeing that the always gentle chief of staff was furious by his own assurance, and even said dirty words, Liu Changshun couldn't help but be stunned. Fortunately, he is not stupid, and immediately understood that Guo Bingxun was angry with himself because he said the wrong thing unscrupulously.

Liu Changshun, who understood the reason, had a very good attitude, and hurriedly admitted his mistake: "Chief of Staff, don't be angry. I know it's wrong, isn't it okay for me to say it for a while? You know I have less ink in my stomach and can't speak. You can rest assured that I will do my best to fight this battle well, successfully complete the tasks assigned by the headquarters, and absolutely live up to the love of the commander and you. ”

Hearing Liu Changshun's reassurance, Guo Bingxun nodded slightly and said, "What we need is not a guarantee." If all the promises worked, then there wouldn't be so much crime in this world. We want results, you know? ”

"But there's one thing I'll tell you first. If you get too many casualties this time to the north, you won't be able to complete the mission. If the troops are exhausted, not only will they not be counted as completing the mission, but we will also have to clean you up when they come back. I can tell you that this is something that the commander has repeatedly told you to make it clear. ”

Hearing Guo Bingxun's request, Liu Changshun's face was about to wrinkle into a bun. With a bitter face, he said: "Chief of Staff, the enemy situation in the north is not clear now, and I don't know how much strength the Japanese puppet army has." The terrain is also unfamiliar, and this casualty is inevitable. Isn't this requirement of the commander a little too high? ”

Looking at Liu Changshun's almost crying appearance, Guo Bingxun, who was still angry with him just now, couldn't get angry. After shaking his head and being speechless, he said: "The commander said that you admit death, but I still don't believe it." Now it seems that the commander still sees people more accurately than I do. ”

"Why did the commander transfer Ma Chunsheng to you as chief of staff? I sue you, commander, for being willing, and I am not willing to do that. I finally have someone here who can help me share the burden. Okay, this quilt was pried away by you before it was hot. ”

"The commander transferred your original chief of staff to the newly established Military Justice Department of the headquarters as the director, and Ma Chunsheng to you as the chief of staff, isn't it because he has lived in Jiamusi for many years and knows the terrain, climate, and even the enemy situation in Heli, Luobei, and Wuyun very well."

"And didn't the headquarters already give you a briefing on the enemy situation? Have you taken a closer look? I'll tell you again, if you ask this idiot's question again next time, I will directly remove you and replace Wang Guangyu. ”

"Listen, I'll say it one last time. At present, the 37th Wing of the Fourth Division, which was originally stationed in Fujin, Binsui, and Luobei, had also fought against us in the previous stage of the operation, and although the losses were not large, they were definitely not small. And so far it has not been completely defended, and it has been stationed in Jiamusi. ”

"Right now, in your intended combat area, except for a small number of Japanese so-called border garrisons, there are basically no large Japanese troops. The main garrison force was the puppet Manchu military police. If you don't even have confidence in dealing with these puppet Manchu military police, then I really recommend that you don't go. ”

Speaking of this, Guo Bingxun, who felt that he had gone too far, softened his tone slightly: "What I told you today, you should think about it after you go back, but don't have any psychological burden." ”

"I say all this today, not to put much pressure on you, but to open your heart knot before you go north. I don't want you to go out with love, it's not good. If you can't let go of the burden in your heart, you will not only mislead others but also mislead yourself, and it will also bring unnecessary impact and losses to the troops. We all hope that you will put down your baggage and travel light. ”

"After going north this time, you discussed with Wang Minggui and Ma Chunsheng when you encountered trouble. Especially Ma Chunsheng, this person is very talented and extremely capable. If you use it well, it will be a great help to you. If you really can't make up your mind, can you still report to the headquarters? In addition, the first company of the reconnaissance battalion was personally led by Dong Ping, and it was to set off for the north tonight. ”

Speaking of this, Guo Bingxun said with some hatred: "Do you know how determined the commander who was supposed to take advantage of this rare time to recuperate and conduct special training for the reconnaissance battalion before he was dispatched to cooperate with you?" ”

"Also, if it weren't for the fact that you're always holding back and don't know how to work around. If the commander hadn't come to dig the corner in person, do you think I would really be willing to transfer Ma Chunsheng to you? This is a rare talent. I can tell you, this time I will hand over the person to you completely, and you must bring it back to me in its entirety. ”

Looking at Liu Changshun, who looked thoughtful after listening to his words, Guo Bingxun, who already felt that he had said enough, terminated the conversation: "That's all for today." The battle plan will be sent to you tomorrow. There's still a week to go, so you can figure it out. ”

Hearing Guo Bingxun's tone revealing that he couldn't say anything tired, knowing that Yang Zhen and Guo Bingxun had been fighting in the north for almost a few nights, Liu Changshun, who had not closed his eyes for almost a few nights, didn't dare to say anything, and after saluting Guo Bingxun, he turned around and left.

Looking at Liu Changshun's back and remembering the gaffe just now, Guo Bingxun shook his head helplessly. The commander can be said to have good intentions this time, in order to ensure the success of this northward advance, in order to make Liu Changshun pass guò this battle truly mature.

Ma Chunsheng, who had just taken office and had not yet made a hot ass in the position of deputy chief of staff of the newly established general staff office of the General Headquarters, kicked out and transferred the former chief of staff of the Second Regiment back to the General Headquarters, not to mention that he also used all the military and political cadres of the Second Regiment except for the chief of staff almost unchanged. The inheritance of the chain of command is ensured.

Even Ma Chunsheng, who had just been transferred to the chief of staff of the Second Regiment, had cooperated with Liu Changshun for a period of time during the Battle of Qunce Mountain, and they were very familiar with each other. In particular, Ma Chunsheng, who has an extremely accurate vision, although he has not cooperated with Liu Changshun for a long time, he knows Liu Changshun's character very well. Transferring Ma Chunsheng to the second regiment will be of great help to Liu Changshun.

I remembered that when Yang Zhen explained the content of his conversation with Liu Changshun, he violated his own principle of never exaggerating certain issues, and directly told himself that he could exaggerate some things, such as the impact of this northward advance on the troops in the future.

In fact, the impact of the northward advance on the troops is far less great than that of their own exaggeration, and it is true that whether or not the northward advance can succeed will have a certain impact on the future development of the troops, but it is not so great. As for gambling with the troops, this is even more exaggerated. Although the task of this northward advance cannot be said to be very easy, it is not heavy under the condition that it does not require the occupation of all a few counties, and at least only opens a passage.

Yang Zhen was not so reckless, and he was not so bold, and handed over the matter related to the fate of the troops to a person who was not too mature. In this operation, as long as Liu Changshun does not make any major mistakes, there should be no problem in completing the task under the current situation of the enemy situation in the north.

Moreover, just in case, Yang Zhen had already decided to transfer Wang Guangyu's regiment to the north bank of the Nada River for training after Liu Changshun went north, and then waited. Once Liu Changshun's attack is unfavorable, Wang Guangyu's regiment will quickly go north to reinforce.

In fact, Guo Bingxun didn't know that after the battle of Qunce Mountain, Yang Zhen had made up his mind several times to transfer Liu Changshun and Wang Xiaoming, the political commissar of the Second Regiment. Wang Xiaoming was reappointed as the head of the regiment, and Liu Changshun was appointed as the political commissar. But after thinking about it several times, it was decided to give Liu Changshun one last chance.

After all, it is not easy to appoint a regimental commander, and it is not a good thing to take it lightly. However, if Liu Changshun can't grasp this opportunity again, I'm afraid Yang Zhen would rather not take Liu Changshun's feelings into account.
