    After hesitating for a moment, Yang Zhen said again: "Send a report to the two bosses on the southern front and inform them of the current changes in the war situation on the western front and our new deployment adjustments. I hope they can pay more attention to the mobilization of Shangyi and Zhangbei's Japanese troops.  If possible, capture Zhangbei and Guyuan counties as soon as possible and complete the division and encirclement of the independent second mixed brigade. "

    "Order Wang Guangyu's troops to speed up the progress and seize Gongzhuling before the 28th, complete the encirclement of the Japanese troops on the Xinjing battlefield, cut off the connection between the Xinjing battlefield and the front-line Japanese troops on Siping Street, and ensure at all costs the Kwantung Army at this time  , unable to deploy a single soldier for the battlefield inside the pass."

    "He has concentrated 50% of our tanks, 45% of our direct artillery, and 30% of our tactical aviation. So far, he has not completed the task of seizing Gongzhuling and sealing off the Xinjing battlefield. It is true that  Some things are unreasonable, so tell him that he must speed up the progress.¡±

    "In addition, send a report to the boss of the Jinsui Military Region to inform them of the upcoming roundabout operation here. As for the Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment, no prior notification is required for the time being. Let the password be used to contact the Daqingshan Guerrilla Detachment.  , give it directly to Chen Hanzhang."

    In fact, what made Yang Zhen hesitate was not to transfer Du Kaishan back to the headquarters. He had already decided on this matter by assigning Tao Jingfei to the Western Front Reserve. What made him hesitate was the two letters to the Jinsui Army and the Jinsui Military Region.  It looked like a discussion, but it was actually a telegram of orders. Think of yourself giving orders to the three marshals of the Republic more than ten years later.

    Another one of them is that he made many military exploits during his Red Army period. During the Anti-Japanese War, he swept across North China, during the Liberation War, he swept into the Dabie Mountains, and during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, Yang Wei broke into the Korean Peninsula alone in five battles, and was surrounded by enemies on all sides.  Under this, the veteran troops who did not leave behind even a single wounded man were the commander-in-chief from the Anti-Japanese War to the founding of the People's Republic of China, and were among the top ten marshals of the Republic with great military exploits.

    Although his tone has been very gentle, Yang Zhen is really having a headache giving such an order. These three people will be respected by thousands of people in future generations. Now that he is asked to give them orders, Yang Zhen still can't let go.  , although he knew that these old coaches would never embarrass him in this regard, let alone ignore the overall situation.

    And in order to coordinate this battle, the boss, entrusted by the chairman, has personally rushed to the Shanxi-Sui Military Region to take charge. The deputy commander-in-chief has also rushed back from Shandong to personally take charge of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Taihang regions to coordinate and command. It can be said that this battle,  Yang Zhen's backstage is the chairman, but in Yang Zhen's heart, he just can't let go of that big stone. Sometimes knowing too much is actually a burden.

    Three marshals, as well as those generals and generals in later generations, but he was just a small major in later generations. A major commanded three marshals, a group of generals, generals, lieutenant generals, and major generals. Yang Zhen felt greatly stimulated.  At the same time, there is also a certain amount of pressure in my heart.

    It's just that he forgot that he now also holds the rank of lieutenant general. At least in terms of position, he is still on the same level as the three marshals. As for his subordinates, he has the most powerful ones in the army, the best equipment and the best training.  He is an army of Su, but now he just hasn't gotten over the hurdle in his heart.

    Although this burden is only on his heart, and Yang Zhen will not affect the battle because of these burdens, these things still have a more or less subconscious impact on Yang Zhen, at least the tone of today's telegram  , which is too different from his usual style, but Guo Bingxun is not very clear about these things.

    While drafting an order, he suddenly heard that Yang Zhen was going to replace Du Kaishan with Tao Jingfei and report back to the headquarters. Guo Bingxun immediately understood what Yang Zhen was thinking: "No. 1, you are planning to replace Liu Changshun with Du Kaishan. This is  It¡¯s not too hasty. Once Chen Hanzhang¡¯s actions are launched, the entire Western Front frontal battlefield needs to contain more Japanese troops on the Western Front.¡±

    "Although Liu Changshun is a bit too rigid in his command style, he is relatively good at defensive operations. It should be said that he is a more suitable candidate to replace Chen Hanzhang at this time. Moreover, we have approved Liu Changshun to replace Chen Hanzhang. He will be replaced at the beginning of the battle.  Isn¡¯t it a bit inappropriate to replace him? It¡¯s not a good thing to change players on the spot. ¡±

    "Besides Du Kaishan, it is difficult to get out now. Although the Shuangliao front line is not the main battlefield, it is an extremely important part of the entire Xinjing battlefield. It is a sharp knife that our army stabs into the belly of the Kwantung Army from the flanks.  "

    "The progress in this direction is directly related to whether we can reduce the possible pressure on the Xinjing battlefield and cut off the Kwantung Army's route to reinforce the Xinjing battlefield. Although it does not seem to be as important as the Northern Front, and the number of troops invested is not as high as the Northern Front.  , but it is a link between the past and the nextAs part of this, it may not be appropriate to adjust the commander selection at this time.  "

    In response to Guo Bingxun's objection, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "I don't want to replace Liu Changshun now. What I mean is to be ready to take over at any time. I still know Liu Changshun. He is too well-behaved on the battlefield.  The ability to seize opportunities is always unsatisfactory.¡±

    "In a word, he is too cautious and not courageous enough. This can be seen from his command in the northern direction of the Western Front. This guy is too cautious and often too sloppy in his command. This person is suitable for him.  Staying in one place and attacking doesn¡¯t suit his style.¡±

    "Once the battle situation changes, it will be difficult for him to firmly grasp the progress of the battle situation and make the best offensive and defensive transition choice in the shortest time. If the western front is to switch to full-line defense now, Liu Changshun is the best  However, right now on the western front, we need to maintain a fairly strong offensive."

    "Shifting to defense too early can only allow the Japanese army to take a breather. Besides, the 26th Division wants to attract the strength of my three divisions plus a tank brigade and several tank battalions. They are not that big yet.  The charm, the offensive strength there must not only be maintained, but also strengthened.¡±

    "Now the entire Western Front war situation has reached a critical node. I am very worried that Liu Changshun's ability will be difficult to cope with the changes in the war situation at any time. Du Kaishan will be transferred back in advance to familiarize himself with the Western Front War situation. Once necessary, he can immediately  Transfer him to replace Liu Changshun. With him on standby at the headquarters, we will have more room for maneuver. "

    "Although this guy is still a little irritable, he is absolutely unambiguous in key areas, and his adaptability is quite outstanding among our senior commanders. Putting him on the Western Front to replace Chen Hanzhang has actually always been the best choice.  I was a little hesitant at first about the right candidate, but in the end I listened to Chen Hanzhang¡¯s suggestion.¡±

    "Looking at it now, the original decision was obviously too hasty. Although we have made some corrections in some aspects, Liu Changshun is the military commander after all. The various decisions of Wang Minggui and Yang Jicai still need to be based on his ideas.  Yes, the chief military officer is not good enough. A chief of staff and chief of operations cannot change the overall situation. "

    "But the decision has been made, and there is no use regretting it now. The key question now is whether we can prepare for the contingency. If we don't prepare in advance, when the war situation changes, we will waste a lot of time in redeploying people.  It¡¯s time to get on the sedan and prick your ears, and by then it will be too late to do anything.¡±

    "When the successor arrives, he still needs to be familiar with the battle situation and hand over. These things will not be completed for a while, but the ever-changing battle situation waits for no one and does not give us much time to prepare slowly. You and I both  Senior commanders all understand the price we will pay if we miss some fighter jets.¡±

    "As for Tao Jingfei, he has a stable personality and a strong view of the overall situation. Although his ability to grasp the battlefield is not as good as that of Chen Hanzhang and Wang Guangyu, he is still considered to be above average. He and Du Kaishan used to be old partners, and they know each other's personalities relatively well. Regarding Du Kaishan's combat style,  I have more control.¡±

    "If you let him replace Du Kaishan at this time, at least there will not be any big changes or interference in the command, and the army will not be in any chaos due to the change of generals on the spot. I think he will be transferred to a suitable one.  In fact, the best candidate to replace Du Kaishan is Wang Xiaoming, but now the eastern front is also very important, and transferring Wang Xiaoming is not a good choice. "

    "Lao Guo, water is unpredictable and soldiers are unpredictable. For a commander, the most important thing on the battlefield is the ability to grasp the battle situation. Especially on the current Western Front battlefield, the commander's ability to grasp fighter aircraft is very critical.  However, Liu Changshun is most lacking in this aspect, and this is what worries me the most.¡±

    "Actually, I hope that my worries are unnecessary, but there are some things that we must think about in advance. It is better for us to make more preparations in advance than to make up for it when the time comes. Lao Guo, the fighter plane is fleeting and we cannot use it.  The lives and blood of soldiers to make amends for the wrongs caused by things we should have thought of.¡±

    Changing generals before a battle has always been a taboo for military strategists. Guo Bingxun, who is familiar with military literature, knows this very well. What's more, it is necessary to change generals in two directions at the same time. Yang Zhen can make such a big determination to replace commanders in both directions, which shows his concerns.  It's quite big, and he won't do it unless he has to.

    Yang Zhen's painstaking efforts were still unclear to Guo Bingxun at this moment. Although he was still somewhat hesitant, Guo Bingxun finally followed Yang Zhen's idea and quickly conveyed the order and sent a small plane to Linxi.  Take Tao Jingfei back to Tongliao headquarters in the shortest possible time.

    In Tao JingfeiAfter arriving, Guo Bingxun immediately introduced Du Kaishan's current progress to him and conveyed the order from the headquarters to him. When he heard the order from the headquarters, he immediately went to Du Kaishan to take over the command.  Tao Jingfei's first thought was that this guy had gotten into trouble again.

    Although when other battlefields are in full swing, leading the reserve team to stand by on the front line from Linxi to Kailu seems very boring to someone like Tao Jingfei who is not actually a stabilizer at heart, but let him go on his own  Tao Jingfei was still unwilling to do something like grabbing food from his old comrade's job.

    Looking at Tao Jingfei who was stunned and wanted to say something after listening to the headquarters' order, Guo Bingxun did not explain the headquarters' intentions to him. He just told him to familiarize himself with the battlefield in the shortest possible time and complete the handover of command. As for Du Kaishan  There is no need for him to do the work, he only needs to persuade Du Kaishan to return to the headquarters.

    After a few hasty explanations, Guo Bingxun, who really didn't have much time to talk to him, sent someone to put Tao Jingfei into the Lysander liaison plane that picked him up and sent him to the command post in Du Kaishan. As for Tao Jingfei, he couldn't  Du Kaishan cannot be exchanged. In the words of No. 1, except for the two of them personally giving the order, only Tao Jingfei can convince that guy.
