    Chapter 206

    Andiyan, the Central Asian Front Army summary conference site. The person who can appear at this conference site is at least a lieutenant general.  Su Yi, who was carrying a major general, stood out among the crowd.

    During the critical battle of Samarkand, Su Yi's 180th Division took the lead in opening a gap and rushed into the city. When faced with the Soviet army's crazy counterattack, Su Yi personally went to the front line and commanded the troops to resist the Soviet army's crazy counterattack.  More than half of the entire division was lost in battle, and no one retreated.  For a Type B division to be able to achieve this result, the division commander is indispensable.

    Knowing that he had the lowest rank, Su Yi found a seat in the corner and sat quietly. He did not take the initiative to talk to others. He lowered his head and kept writing some battle thoughts in a small notebook.  To be honest, this battle was very difficult. The 180th Division went up as the second echelon. In order to break through the Soviet city defenses, Su Yi concentrated all 76 mountain guns and 120 mortars in the division and used them to target a 50-meter  The city defense sections on the left and right were bombarded fiercely, and they resisted the Soviet artillery fire for an hour.  In just one hour, two-thirds of the division's mountain artillery regiment suffered casualties, and more than half of the 120-heavy mortar was lost.  Because it was a night battle, air support was not available.  After paying a huge price, Su Yi used a battalion to attack this section at all costs. The Soviet army failed to withstand this desperate attack, and the 180th Division opened a gap and held it.

    It can be said that if we look at the entire National Defense Force, we may have done this in wars twenty years ago, but now those officers who have been formally educated in military academies rarely do this anymore.  The reason is simple, the casualties are too high.  Because Su Yi was on the front line in person in the 180th Division, no one dared to take a step back.  After the war, some officers in the front army criticized this.  He believes that fighting like this is an inconsiderate approach to soldiers. Although it can be fought hard, it is not advisable.

    It is inevitable that Su Yi will know some of these rumors.  But he was unmoved. When an acquaintance officer asked about this matter, he replied: "In the past, when I supported the commander in the Northern Expedition, he once said: Generals will have a will to die, and soldiers will not be greedy for life. He also said: The brave one who meets on the road will win!"

    As a third-generation graduate of Wuhu Mainland University, Su Yi was promoted relatively slowly in the National Defense Forces. After graduation, he joined the Staff Headquarters of the Northwest Military Region.  Later, when the Central Asian Front Army was established, he still served as his staff officer.  He never had the opportunity to lead troops on the front line until Liu Mingzhao recognized his talent.  Appointing him as the new commander of the 180th Division gave him the opportunity to show his iron-blooded side in leading troops.

    It is a rare opportunity for a group of generals to get together and chat. Before the meeting, the conversation naturally broke out.  The whole venue was filled with noise.  Some of them laughed loudly when they were happy.  Su Yi, sitting in the corner, looked even more unusual.

    This scene lasted until a staff officer walked in on the rostrum, stood in front of the microphone and shouted: "Quiet!"

    The sound was so loud that it hurt my ears!  Some of these proud soldiers who came down from the battlefield stared up at him. They saw that he was a small staff officer. Many people were gearing up and ready to rush forward to make him look good.  Unexpectedly, the staff officer shouted again: "The President is here!" Now the venue was completely in chaos, with the sound of chairs falling to the ground.  The generals who gathered together to talk nonsense didn't even have time to return to their posts and stand upright!  Because at this time, Fang Jianxiong had already strode onto the podium!  Behind him are the main generals of the Central Asian Front, as well as Defense Minister Jiang Fangzhen, Chief of General Staff Xu Shuzheng and others.

    After taking a look at the messy scene, Fang Jianxiong chuckled, walked to the microphone and said calmly: "Everyone, go back to your seats and sit down!" There was another burst of excitement in the scene, and it was completely quiet after just ten seconds.  After coming down, everyone sat upright with their chests raised.

    Everyone took their seats on the rostrum. Fang Jianxiong stood alone as the host, raised a manuscript in his hand and asked loudly: "Who is Su Yi? Stand up!" Su Yi immediately stood up, and Fang Jianxiong said: "Sit down  Get off!"

    Fang Jianxiong returned to his seat and sat down. Zhang Zhizhong stepped forward to preside over the summary meeting and summarized the war situation in Central Asia in the past six months.

    "The purpose of the summary meeting is to summarize combat experience, promote good experience, and find ways to improve the shortcomings. Adhering to the president's wishes, we only need to talk about the shortcomings of this battle! First of all, I am talking about the combat spirit. This battle exposed  It turns out that some of our troops lack the spirit of daring to fight on the battlefield. To save everyone's face, I won't name them one by one. What was the first lesson you learned when you entered the military academy? I think some people have forgotten it.  There will be no war without air support and artillery support. The Soviet army rushed up with bayonets in hand, and some officers turned around and ran away. Now, all of you, stand up and read loudly to me the words on the title page of your military ID card!"

    ????????? Brush, everyone in the venue stands up!  "National interests are above all else! Military honor is life!" Nearly a hundred generals at the scene read this sentence loudly along with Zhang Zhizhong. Fang Jianxiong and others on the rostrum also stood at attention and read loudly: "National interests are above all else.  ! Military honor is life!"

    Everyone shouted this at the top of their lungs, a total ofAfter three times, Zhang Zhizhong stopped!

    "Sit down and continue the meeting!" After a brief calm at the scene, Zhang Zhizhong continued: "Here I would like to commend a division commander, his name is Su Yi! At the critical moment of the battle of Samarkand, knowing that there was no air support, knowing that he should  Although the artillery of the department would be suppressed by Soviet artillery fire, he risked huge sacrifices without hesitation and concentrated all artillery fire at a distance of 1,000 meters. After paying huge sacrifices, the department broke through the Soviet city defenses and launched a fearless attack.  The spirit of sacrifice withstood the crazy counterattack launched by more than three times the strength of the Soviet army, opening the door to victory for the entire army. I hereby solemnly announce that after the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff reported to the President for approval, a certain subordinate of the 180th Division of the National Defense Forces  The third company was awarded the collective Gold Star Medal and was awarded the honorable title of Heroic Company of Samarkand! Division Commander Su Yi was resolute and courageous. He went to the front line to fight to the death and fought hand-to-hand with the Soviet army. He was awarded the individual Gold Star Medal. Others in the unit were awarded individual Gold Star Medal honors.  There are thirty-three people in total. What is sad is that these people can no longer stand here to receive the highest honor of the National Defense Force because they died in the battle. Among these people, the lowest ranking is a cook, and the highest ranking is  Leader"

    As Zhang Zhizhong spoke slowly, Su Yi stood up silently.  Hold back the tears and stand upright!

    At this time, all that flashed in Su Yi's mind was the fierce battle that night, in which one of the three regiment leaders was killed and another was seriously injured.  There was also a minor injury.  The Soviet troops poured into the gap like a tide. The barrel of the general-purpose machine gun was red and there was no time to replace it. The Soviet troops fell down like wheat and continued to flood forward.  Company commander Zhao Xin fired a mortar shell and threw it as a grenade. After throwing the shell, he rushed into the enemy with an explosive package.  At this moment, the Soviet army's momentum was completely defeated, and the gap was not blocked.  Another ten minutes passed.  The reinforcements just caught up, and it was only ten minutes before Xin Zhao didn't have to sacrifice.

    This time on the rostrum.  Zhao Hao sat next to Fang Jianxiong with an expressionless face.  Fang Jianxiong looked at Zhao Hao's expression with some worry. When Zhang Zhizhong mentioned company commander Zhao Xin, Zhao Hao smiled, which was uglier than crying.  But very proud.

    A group of generals in the audience did not dare to raise their heads.  Speaking of which, there were too many new troops in Central Asia. During the battle, many troops failed to withstand the fierce Soviet counterattack.  Especially during the battle of Samarkand, due to the tenacity of the Soviet army, the attack speed of each unit was extremely slow. Let alone entering the city, it was difficult to clear the outer positions.

    Zhang Zhizhong¡¯s summary report lasted two hours.  The people in the audience sat there for two hours.  Finally finished speaking, Fang Jianxiong stood up and walked to the stage.  Looking at the generals in the audience, he said: "Many of you have followed me from Wuhu, to Anqing, to the Eastern and Northern Expeditions, to the decisive battle in Shandong, and to Qingdao to fight against the Japanese. But it has only been twenty years since the peaceful days, and you have forgotten  What is the most important spirit of the Wehrmacht? I want to reiterate here that the spirit of the Wehrmacht is iron and blood, dedication, and sacrifice. There is a lieutenant general among you who attacked a Soviet division with an army of troops and fought for three full times.  They couldn't advance 500 meters even for days. The Soviet troops retreated after volleying their guns. What did such troops do? What did such generals do? I declare that the designation of the 50th Army is revoked and the army  Commander Li Chengyu dismissed some positions, and I will not announce the results of others one by one here. The number 50th Army will never appear in the sequence of the National Defense Forces. I hope this is the last time!"

    Holding a box in his hand, Zhao Hao walked into the car with trembling steps. He turned around and said to Fang Jianxiong: "President, there's no need to send it away. I'm fine. Xin Zhao is a good person and has not disgraced our Zhao family." Fang Jianxiong said silently.  He patted him on the shoulder, said nothing, turned around and waved, and the car drove to the airport.

    When he returned to his residence, Su Yi, who had been ordered to come, stood at the door. Fang Jianxiong saw his admiring eyes and said: "Su Yi, you are very good. I have read your summary report carefully, and many of the questions you raised are very sharp."  If only the 148th Division could arrive twenty minutes earlier this time, the casualties of the 180th Division would not be so heavy. Li Chengyu, this bastard, as a senior in the second phase of the teaching team, is worse than a junior student in the war. Just a Soviet soldier  The division's blockade was actually able to defeat one of his infantry divisions. What was the name of that division commander?"

    "My name is Tang Erhu. He was born in the first batch of Baoding. He later went to Wuhu Continental University for further study. He has been in the reserve since the end of the Northern Expedition." Liu Mingzhao added on the side. Fang Jianxiong nodded and said: "Send him to a military court! He will be tried for incompetence in combat.  !¡±

    Su Yi remained silent. After Fang Jianxiong finished speaking, he said to Su Yi: "I read your summary about the lack of fire suppression between 150-250, and it was very insightful. The Shenyang Arsenal has been ordered to develop a rifle grenade, which should be available soon.  Enter actual combat. By the way, Bocheng, the Fifty Army has revoked its designation. It is unfair to those soldiers who fought bravely in the battle. Screen it, clean up the top brass of the entire army, and reorganize an army with the designation of the 110th Army. Su Yi will be appointed as the 110th Army.  ?Commander, Lieutenant General rank, the troops will be transferred to the Yalu River defense line in Liaodong. Is this arrangement okay?  You won't complain about me transferring your heroes, will you?  "

    Liu Mingzhao said: "The imperial edict is frightening. Soldiers regard obedience as their bounden duty. Everyone in the Central Asian Front Army must obey the president's orders. I heard that the Japanese army is increasing its troops in the Far East, and our army must be on guard!"

    Fang Jianxiong said: "Japan will not dare to take the initiative to start a war within a year. India and Australia have not yet been conquered. It is undoubtedly too stupid to provoke China at this time. Among the Japanese army, the control faction and the emperor's faction are evenly matched, and Nagata Tetsuzan is  People are very sensible, and he would never take the initiative to challenge China in Japan."
