Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After listening to Zhang Zixiong's report, Li Yanping, who was familiar with Yang Zhen's character, could only hold back the fire in his heart. Zhang Zixiong was right. Once there was work or as soon as the battle started, even he could not persuade Yang Zhen to rest, let alone  Zhang Zixiong is just a guard.

    Li Yanping, who suppressed his anger, turned to Yuan Zhiruo and said: "Xiao Yuan, you are here to watch him today. He is not allowed to receive any telegrams. If there is anything, ask them to come to me and Chief of Staff Guo. He will not sleep for a full day."  "We must not let him get up. Even if the sky falls, we must ensure that he has a good rest today."

    After resting there for a while, Yang Zhen, who had calmed down a little, waved his hands and said, "Lao Li, don't blame them. I didn't pay attention. I can't blame them. I'd better go back to the headquarters to rest. I have a car and there's nothing to worry about."  , it¡¯s still a bit inconvenient to pass messages here.¡±

    What else did Li Yanping want to persuade, but Yang Zhen shook his head and said, "Old Li, don't persuade me. Although the weather is very bad right now and has a great impact on aviation operations, it will also have some impact on the actions of ground troops."  Some obstacles, but they are just some obstacles, especially pure infantry activities, which are not even obstacles.  "

    "And the Japanese army is very likely to use this heavy rain to make some deceptive tactical arrangements to confuse our troops on the front line, so I'd better return to the headquarters and rest. The situation here is still conveyed a little slower. Now that I have gone home  , then it won¡¯t be long.¡±

    Seeing Yang Zhen's uncompromising look, Li Yanping could only helplessly tell him that the military attache who was nominally the Soviet Consulate in Harbin could actually be said to be the liaison officer of the Soviet Army in the Anti-Japanese War. He had been promoted to colonel.  Valev, as well as Lieutenant Colonel Pearson, the head of the American military observer group, and the British military observer group, are waiting at the headquarters for his return.

    These guys were almost furious when they wanted to see Yang Zhen. During Yang Zhen's absence at the headquarters, Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun, who were acting as abbots for the overall work of the military region, were already extremely disturbed. Li Yanping asked them what was going on.  , but these people unanimously refused to say anything, and would not say anything until they saw Yang Zhen.

    Li Yanping didn't care about Pearson and the head of the British military observation group. They came to Yang Zhen for some reason. However, Li Yanping was wary of Kavalev's arrival.  After all, Wang Guangyu's incident in Mongolia has not been resolved yet, and the Soviets are still sitting in the headquarters to protest.

    Although Yang Zhen went to Rehe this time to discuss the next battle plan with the two leaders of the advancing army, he did not avoid the ideas that would offend the Soviets. Although Li Yanping was not very fond of Wang Guangyu's actions,  Satisfied, he thought Wang Guangyu was a little too reckless this time.

    But it's not just Yang Zhen who protects the calf, Li Yanping is also the same. As the best column commander in the eyes of him and Yang Zhen, he must protect his subordinates at this time, as long as he hasn't stabbed someone in the sky.  The hole came out, especially since Wang Guangyu was his old comrade who once served as the commander and deputy commander of the Fourth Anti-Allied Army, so he had to protect him at this time.

    However, Li Yanping was also a little suspicious of Kovalev's uninvited visit this time. The previous protests were all made by the man who was supposed to have everything on his plate, but always went to the Anti-Japanese Alliance when he had nothing to do. They were basically just slaps.  The chief of staff of the Far East Military Region came to the headquarters. This time it was Kovalev, a man who basically did not participate in such things, who came to the headquarters to find Yang Zhen.

    The difference in selection made Li Yanping uncertain. He was sitting in the headquarters all day long, not even saying hello to his American and British counterparts who were coming with him. He was hiding in a room, but he was a shameless guy who wouldn't leave.  It's not because of this reason, but Li Yanping knows that this Kovalev will definitely not be the master who goes to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. Every time he comes, he will more or less cause some trouble, because behind his back,  Standing is the Soviet General Staff.

    When he came to the headquarters this time, he didn't know whether it was the Far East Military Region or the Soviet Chief of General Staff behind him. What kind of tricks were they doing? They were interested in something in the Northeast. But this guy would never let go until he saw Yang Zhen.  Li Yanping had no choice but to have two reception rooms cleaned up at the headquarters and pave the floors for these brothers.

    Li Yanping told Yang Zhen that even if he returned to the headquarters, it would be difficult for him to rest peacefully. These three people didn't know what was going on, especially the two guys Kovalev and Pearson, who insisted on repeatedly asking to see him.  Yang Zhen couldn't help it. Even the British man who had always sat firmly on Diaoyutai since coming to Northeast China seemed to be very anxious this time.

    Regarding Li Yanping's suggestion to rest at the airport and temporarily avoid those annoying guys, Yang Zhen shook his head and insisted on going back to the headquarters to rest. For Yang Zhen, the military situation was like a fire, so resting here at the airport would certainly allow him to escape for a while.  It's clean, but it's still not good for controlling the battle situation.

      Seeing Yang Zhen's resolute attitude, Li Yanping knew that he had nothing to do with this guy, so he could only shake his head helplessly. Fortunately, it was only a dozen kilometers away from the headquarters. Although the weather was bad, the roads were  The situation was good, even if we drove slower, it would only take half an hour at most to return to the headquarters.

    But while waiting to get in the car, Yang Zhen called Li Yanping to his car. After Li Yanping sat down, Yang Zhen looked at the time on his watch and said to Li Yanping: "Old Li, let me  I obey when I rest, but I can only sleep for eight hours at most, and you have to wake me up after eight hours.¡±

    "Also, when you return to the headquarters, you ask Lao Guo to personally call the commanders of the columns ahead and talk to them in person. They must be alert to prevent the Japanese army from taking advantage of the heavy rain to launch a sneak attack on our army. In addition,  Ma Chunsheng must let Lao Guo watch him personally, and he must not be allowed to go too deep. If it doesn't work, let him temporarily switch to defense before the situation is clear. "

    "His progress there is too fast and too smooth. His two wings have now been completely exposed. Once the Japanese army forces an attack on his two wings, the consequences will be disastrous. Lao Li, you have to watch his progress personally and be sure to control him.  According to the progress, the Japanese army transferred another division into Xinjing, but allowed his offensive north of Xinjing. This is not a simple matter. "

    "Compared to Wang Guangyu and Du Kaishan, what I am most worried about is Ma Chunsheng. This guy is a little too bold in commanding operations and lacks experience in commanding large corps. He is still suitable to be a chief of staff, but he is responsible  One direction, my heart is always hanging on."

    At this point, Yang Zhen waved his hand and stopped Li Yanping from saying anything: "Old Li, I know what you are thinking, but this battle is really important to us. It is directly related to the entire Northeast War situation. In the next few years,  The direction of the year will even affect whether we can obtain much-needed foreign aid in the next few years.¡±

    "We are now in a state of poverty. Without external support, we can't accomplish anything. The factories we built with the help of the Americans are just the first step in a long march of thousands of miles. We still need to work hard to walk the rest of the way. There is nothing in the sky.  The pie thing, if it happens, will never fall on us. For us, everything depends on our own efforts. "

    "In order to prepare for this battle, the two major base areas in North China have almost spent their capital, and we have also invested all the troops on hand. This is a big gamble. If we win, we will completely establish a foothold in the Northeast and  We can extend our hands into North China. If we lose, not only our own base areas, but also the two major base areas behind enemy lines in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Taihang are likely to be completely lost. My good political commissar, the consequences for us can be said to be terrible.  Quite grim.¡±

    "So we absolutely cannot lose, because we have no retreat. The most disadvantageous thing for us is that even if it is a tie, we actually lose. We have invested so much energy in this battle, and the Beiman Base Area  The potential of our soldiers has almost been tapped, and all the equipment in our hands has been invested in the front line. We are now completely bankrupt. If we add the troops invested by North China, we have spent a lot of money this time. "

    "This investment in both troops and equipment is the largest since our army came out of the mountains. If we win, we will have considerable development in the next two years. If we lose, we will not only lose all our money.  Not to mention, it will also involve the Big Brother troops in Guan Nei, who will not be able to turn around for several years. "

    "Even if this battle ends in a draw with the Japanese army, as long as we cannot achieve the strategic goal of opening up direct connections with the pass, we will actually be unable to reverse our strategic initiative or even our future development in the next few years.  It is possible that we will be limited to Northern Manchuria, which means that we have no retreat in this battle. A draw is also a loss. "

    "To be honest, Lao Li, I'm really tired now, and I'm not a tough guy. I haven't had a good night's sleep in such a long time. How could I not be tired? Especially this trip to Rehe, even though I tried hard to do it, it didn't work.  We failed to achieve the results we expected. After we came back, we didn¡¯t even have time to take a breath and have another discussion with those professors.¡±

    "Whether it was persuading my two old superiors or talking to these professors, it was a tiring and laborious task. On the one hand, I had to talk to them, and I also had to think about the Japanese army's next plan.  The momentum for counterattack has emerged, and you can¡¯t do it without thinking about it.¡±

    "Regarding the current changes in the war situation, although I judge that the Japanese army has a tendency to launch a massive counterattack, this time I have no confidence at all in judging the direction of the Japanese army's main attack. Our front line is too long, and where will the Japanese army start from?  It won't be a surprise if we start, and our military strength has been used to the extreme now, so the closer this time comes, the less I can show up.A bit of an illusion of judgment.  "

    "I also want to rest, but it is really not the time right now. I also know that a person's ability to bear is limited, but there is no way. Time waits for us not. If we lose one step in this chess game, we will all suffer disaster.  After arriving at the headquarters, I will rest as you requested, because in the next period of time, I must ensure that my mind is absolutely clear. "

    Looking at Yang Zhen's tired face and hearing his firm tone, what else could Li Yanping say? As the acting political commissar of the military region and the political commissar of the field army, how could he not know the importance of this battle? He also knew that as the chief military officer  Yang Zhen was under tremendous pressure in this battle. As Yang Zhen said, a draw in this battle is also a loss. For the future development of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, there must be no other victory in this battle except victory.  result.

    But it is precisely because of this that Li Yanping hopes that Yang Zhen can better adjust his body to ensure that he is clear-headed at all times. If he ignores his body's endurance and does not have to endure it day and night, once he collapses  If it falls, it will be the biggest threat to the overall situation and the entire army.
