After sending away the dubious Zuo Gongxian and Yu Daonan, Liu Mingzhao, regardless of his sleepiness and death, hurriedly sent for deputy brigade commander Zhu Daizhen, brigade chief of staff Dan Maoxin, fifth regiment leader Deng Xihou, and sixth regiment leader Lu Chao. and others to discuss the plan for the southern expedition.
After listening to Liu Mingzhao's introduction to the situation, Deng Xihou took the lead and said: "Brigadier, this is a dangerous march! Although the combat strength of the Guangdong army is unknown, the number of people is there after all. We are alone in the depths, and there is no way to supply soldiers, ammunition, food and wages. If we are invincible, , we can provide food to the enemy, so there is no need to worry about these problems; once the war goes wrong, with a strong enemy in front and no reinforcements behind, we are afraid that we will die without a burial place!"
Zhu Daizhen looked away from the map and said slowly: "The so-called 'Don't worry about victory, think about defeat first', Jin Kang's words are quite reasonable. It's just that the war is fierce and dangerous. How can we not take risks in a war? And as the brigade commander said , it¡¯s not that we have to act like heroes, but the First Division of the Hunan Army is really unreliable. With them, we have to keep enough troops to be on guard at all times, but it is not as easy as going south alone. If they cause trouble on the battlefield, then we are really There is no place to die!"
Liu Mingzhao said: "Don't worry too much. In fact, the situation in Guangdong is not as bad as everyone thinks. First of all, we are not fighting alone. There is at least a regiment of Yin Shuoquan's troops behind us to provide support to ensure that we have no worries. In addition, Liu We will also implore Premier Sun to send aircraft to help our army detect the enemy's situation. If necessary, we can even use aircraft to bomb the enemy's strategic points to make them panic and lose sight of one thing. Everyone has seen the power of aircraft, at the border of Xinjiang and Outer Mongolia. In the Battle of Bulgan River, two planes wiped out thousands of rebels; when we attacked Hunan, a few bombs could make the Hunan army defenseless.
"Secondly, although there are many soldiers in Guangdong, they are fighting in their own province and must defend everywhere. Their forces are bound to be dispersed, which is already at a disadvantage. Moreover, according to previous intelligence, there are many factions within the Guangdong army and military orders are not smooth; some elite soldiers have been borrowed by Hu Zhantang To support Jiangxi, it will be difficult to withdraw to Guangdong for a while; and Long Zicheng of Wuzhou, Guangxi also intends to fish in troubled waters, and can also contain a large part of the Guangdong army. For these reasons, our enemies rarely exceed our own time of military strength.
"Furthermore, the most important requirement for this attack on Guangdong is the word 'quick', because the time left for us is very limited, it is estimated that it will only be about a month from today, so we can only outwit, not the enemy. I don't know. Have you ever heard the story of 'The Cook Kills the Cow' in "Zhuangzi"? The story says that the knife in the hand of the Cook was used for nineteen years and killed thousands of cows, and the blade was still as sharp as if it had just been sharpened. Why? Because he knew the skeletal structure of the cow very well, the blade ran through the gaps and was naturally unscathed.
"With the eyes of the aircraft, we can follow the strategy of 'Pao Ding Jie Niu' in this battle in Guangdong, criticize the big ones, lead the big wars, and avoid the real situation. Before attacking the city of Guangzhou, unless it is absolutely necessary, try our best to Avoid fighting with force. In this way, we can preserve the combat power of our army as much as possible and lay a solid foundation for the determination of Guangdong!"
But Maoxin said: "Even if the plane can go up to the sky and do everything on the ground, in the final analysis, we are still a 'guest army' in the art of war. We want to use a guest army to fight in Hunan and Guangdong provinces where we are unfamiliar. Traveling thousands of miles, and finally going straight to Huanglong to explore Li and get the pearl, I'm afraid it's not an easy task! The brigade commander wouldn't have thought of this. Is the brigade commander brave enough to take on this important task, maybe he has other reasons? "
Liu Mingzhao sighed slightly and said: "What Nu Gang said is true. Liu does have some unavoidable difficulties. You should all know Liu's experience in starting a business, right?"
Lu Chao said: "My subordinates have heard that when the road protection movement started in the year of 1911, the brigade commander abandoned his writing and joined the army. He joined the student army from a government middle school. By chance, he escorted Mr. Feng Ziyi to the north to meet with Premier Sun. As a result, Premier Sun saw the brigade commander. He was so shocked that he tried his best to retain you as the captain of his guard. From then on, the brigade commander soared into the sky. He first served as the 92nd commander of the 46th Mixed Association at a young age. After the Sichuan army came to Hunan, he also served as commander. The brigade commander of the Third Brigade of the Second Division of the Hubei Army became the youngest general in the Republic of China Army.
"Because the story is quite legendary, almost everyone in the Sichuan Army is familiar with it! Whenever everyone talks about it, one of them praises Premier Sun for his sharp eyesight. He can tell the extraordinaryness of the brigade commander at a glance. In just two years, he has transformed the brigade commander from an ordinary person. A soldier who was promoted to a brigade commander is worthy of the reputation of a 'sage in the world' and worthy of being in this situation today. On the one hand, he praises the brigade commander for his extraordinary heroic appearance. He defeated the middle of Sichuan and then the western part of Hubei at a young age. He is a hero. He is no less a young man than Huo Qubing, who was awarded the title of General of Cavalry at the age of nineteen in the Han Dynasty!"
Liu Mingzhao said with a wry smile: "Premier Sun has repeatedly promoted me, and it is difficult for Liu to repay such kindness. It's just that Liu is in a high position at a young age, and his heart is full of kindness."?He was happy and worried at the same time, and the worry was even worse than the joy. He was walking on thin ice every day, fearing that something would happen, which would damage Premier Sun's ability to recognize people. "
Zhu Daizhen said: "Wherever reputation comes, so does slander. The brigade commander doesn't have to worry so much!"
Liu Mingzhao shook his head: "Although the Western Army lieutenant generals are known to be younger and less qualified than those in Beiyang, Liu is different from Governor Zhao Xingzhi, Governor Cheng Huchen, General Chiang Kai-shek and others because I am not a member of the School of Economics. Liu was born in the same department, and he was not a graduate of the Japanese Army Military Academy, nor was he a graduate of Prime Minister Sun¡¯s office. It¡¯s just that Premier Sun showed his love to me, and Liu is here today. Premier Sun treated me as a national scholar, and I should repay him as a national scholar. Why? Repayment? I can only fight bravely on the battlefield and kill the enemy with blood!"
Everyone was speechless for a moment.
Liu Mingzhao paused for a moment and then said: "All of you here are from Sichuan, with no family background to speak of. How could An have achieved such a rapid rise in normal times? Now that he has been able to rise to such a high position in two or three years, don't you feel grateful and eager to do so?" Do you want to serve the country? Now the four provinces of Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangdong and Anhui, regardless of the country's poverty and the opposition of the Congress, wantonly declared independence for their own selfish desires and provoked the Civil War. We are attacking them with the sound of drums. How can we shrink back because of misfortune, blessings and safety! "
But Mao Xin encouraged everyone in another way: "What the brigade commander said is absolutely true! They all say, 'Princes and generals have a kind of peace with each other.' This statement is true. Since the year of 1911, the replacement of governors in various provinces has been like a revolving door, and there are many negative consequences. People who sell butchered dogs and drive cars to sell pulp have fully confirmed this point. I originally thought that I was too late in life and missed a great opportunity. Now it seems that God does not favor one or the other at all. Now that the opportunity has come to us again, it depends on everyone. Can't catch it!
"Originally, the brigade commander led us to attack Changsha first. The position of governor of Hunan should belong to our brigade commander. Each of the regiment commanders can also appoint division commanders and brigade commanders to make smoke rise from the ancestors' graves. Who would have thought that Tan Zuan would actually He is a coward, and he is a fairy. As soon as he saw our army coming, he raised the flag and surrendered, which ruined all our dreams! Fortunately, there is Guangdong after Hunan. We must grit our teeth and win Guangzhou in one go. Regardless of whether that hammer Hu Zhantang surrenders or not, we must bring him down. The governors take turns, and it¡¯s time for him to come to our house today!"
Deng Xihou, Lu Chao and others all laughed and said: "That's right, that's right! I'll let that brat Hu Zhantang take over for me. The position of commander should go to our brigade commander!"
"Don't talk nonsense and let others hear the joke!" Liu Mingzhao also laughed, and then said seriously: "Although we are not afraid of the Guangdong army, we cannot underestimate it, especially in combat deployment. If this is the case If you leave with all your heart, only to come back defeated, that's really ridiculous!"
????????????????????????????????????? Everyone quickly put away their laughter, straightened their chests and tightened their abdomens: "Please give me instructions, Brigadier!"
Liu Mingzhao said: "Although Governor Tan Zuan announced the change of flag, Hunan is one of the bases of the Kuomintang and is full of Revolutionary Party radicals. This generation has always been good at sabotaging assassinations. I am afraid that there will be no peace in Changsha these days; and the Hunan Army The commander of the First Division, Zhao Yiwu, is revolutionary-leaning and has a sworn relationship with the Kuomintang veteran Huang Keqiang. There is no guarantee that there will be no collusion. Therefore, before handing over the defense to Brigadier Yin Shuoquan, the Fifth Regiment must do a good job in defense inside and outside Changsha. Brigadier Yujie is responsible for this. this matter.
"Prior to this, I have discussed with Deputy Speaker Zuozhizhong of the Hunan Provincial Assembly and Commander Yu Daonan of the Hunan Provincial Defense Force. In order to prevent Zhao Yiwu and his officers and soldiers from launching a rebellion, the troops stationed in Changsha and surrounding areas must be reorganized, and further Confiscating the guns and ammunition in their hands left them powerless and helpless. The sixth regiment will be responsible for the reorganization and collection, and I will be responsible for negotiating with Zhao Yiwu and others."
"What are the responsibilities of my subordinates?" Dan Maoxin asked curiously.
Liu Mingzhao said: "You will contact Changsha Station early tomorrow morning and prepare to go south as soon as possible. Once there are free trains, you will lead the artillery battalion, engineering supply battalion, medical care, military supplies, communications and other units to go south in advance. After getting off at Zhuzhou, you can let The artillery battalion, engineering supply battalion, etc. move forward according to the plan. You lead the engineering company and the military supplies, communications and other departments to lay roads along Hengshan, Hengyang, Leiyang, Chenzhou, and Yizhang, prepare grain and grass, and arrange garrison, waiting for the main force to move south. !Do you have any questions?¡±
"No!" Everyone stood up and replied together.
"Then let's go about our business!"
After seeing off his subordinates, Liu Mingzhao anxiously drafted a telegram of his general plan for attacking Guangdong and sent it to Sun Yuanqi and Yang Du in Beijing overnight, asking for their approval. Not only did Sun Yuanqi have no other choice, but out of his blind trust in Liu Junshen, he actually quickly called back and approved his battle plan. Liu Mingzhao once again felt Premier Sun's favor for him.
In this way, the campaign to attack Guangdong slowly began. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
