Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yang Zhen insisted that he stay and gather the follow-up troops, but several military leaders, especially the deputy secretary of the Southeast Bureau, firmly disagreed.  It was difficult for others to speak, but the deputy secretary of the Southeast Bureau said directly: "Comrade Yang Zhen, I object to your idea. You are now the Political Commissar of the New Fourth Army, Secretary of the Southeast Bureau, and Secretary of the Military Branch, which means that you are now the Southern Anhui Army  supreme commander."

    "You are not the commander of the column, let alone the commander of the regiment. It is not appropriate for you to lead the team personally under the current situation to accommodate the follow-up troops. You are responsible for the central government and the entire army currently in southern Anhui, not  Responsible for that individual unit."

    "I have no problem with you leaving a senior cadre to accommodate the follow-up troops. But I think it is inappropriate for you to stay in person. Comrade Yang Zhen, you are putting the cart before the horse. Comrade Yang Zhen, if you continue to insist on this decision,  I will report it to the central government immediately and truthfully."

    The words of the deputy secretary of the Southeast Bureau immediately resonated with all personnel in the military department.  Seeing the resolute opposition of several people, Yang Zhen frowned, but persisted and said to the commander: "Commander, this matter is settled. You will immediately lead all the personnel of the military department and the rest of the troops to cross the Huihe River."  ¡±

    "I will lead a battalion to stay here to stabilize the breach and connect the special agent group and the teaching team. We don't have much time to delay. The enemy is advancing very fast. Even if we want to leave after dawn, we can't leave. We must move quickly.  , there can be no hesitation at all.¡±

    In response to Yang Zhen's insistence, the deputy secretary of the Southeast Bureau said: "Comrade Yang Zhen, I still firmly oppose your idea. I am a member of the Party Committee of the Military Branch and the deputy secretary of the Southeast Bureau. I have the right and obligation to oppose your idea.  Do."

    "Comrade Yang Zhen, although I have been engaged in local work for a long time, I don't know how to lead troops, let alone how to fight. But one thing I still know is that it is inappropriate for you to stay to support the follow-up troops at this time. You are a  Leader of the army, you have to consider the consequences of doing this.¡±

    "Also, Comrade Yang Zhen, you have to trust your subordinates. Both Comrade Zhou Guisheng and Comrade Feng Dafei are commanding the troops on the southern front. They are veteran comrades who have been on the battlefield for a long time. With rich practical experience, you have to believe that they can lead the special agent group.  And bring out the teaching team.¡±

    In response to the fierce opposition of some people, the army commander was silent for a while and said: "In this way, we will first send people to get in touch with the special agent group to see where they are, and then make a decision. If they have already reached the Changkeng Mountain line,  , then the political commissar insists on staying. If they are still on the Niulanling front line, then the political commissar must not stay. "

    The compromise proposed by the military commander was approved by others in the military department.  But contrary to expectations, the radio stations of the military headquarters and the southern front troops were never able to contact.  Several groups of correspondents were sent to look for him, but almost all of them never returned.  Faced with the tense situation, Yang Zhen simply terminated the meeting.  For the first time, he exercised his final decision-making power as a political commissar.

    Faced with Yang Zhen¡¯s stubbornness and persistence, several people in the military department had no choice but to obey.  After the military headquarters selected a group of capable personnel and left behind a radio station, they led the military headquarters to follow the fifth regiment, broke through the artillery blockade of the 40th Division, crossed the Hui River and rushed towards the mountainous area in the northeast of Jingxian County.

    In order to minimize the casualties when troops pass through the fire blockade area.  When the military broke out, Yang Zhen personally took Li Mingbo to the front line.  Command the remaining three Type 92 heavy machine guns and two 90mm mortars to suppress the enemy on the hilltop south of Xingtan.

    Although they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, Yang Zhen commanded the two mortars left behind and used the tactics of late strike and maneuverability to create a wonderful mortar battle.  With two mortars, they suppressed the 40th Division's artillery on the hill south of Xingtan, which had a numerical advantage.

    During the artillery battle, we took advantage of the range advantage of the Japanese mortars to knock out the Italian-made 47 level cannon that threatened the most among the 40th Division's artillery group, and suppressed several heavy machine guns.  This greatly weakened the power of artillery fire at the blocked breach, greatly reducing the casualties of passing troops.  After the military headquarters successfully passed the artillery blockade area, Yang Zhen returned to Xingtan.

    After seeing off the army commander and military headquarters, Yang Zhen sat in Xingtan, while using the radio to continuously call the southern front troops.  On the one hand, it is closely related to the progress of the surrounding enemy situation.  Especially the progress of the 52nd Division on the northern front and the 79th Division on the southern front, the two fastest advancing direct troops of the Central Army.

    Although when I was moving with the military headquarters, I lost contact with the military commander for four hours.  But Yang Zhen was relatively accurate about the entire battle situation.  In the second half of the night, just as he expected, the battle situation around Xingtan continued to deteriorate after the main force left.

    By about three o'clock in the morning, the sound of gunfire became increasingly dense around Xingtan.  The 40th Division troops gathered on several hills in the south discovered that Xingtan's troops had rushed across the Huihe River.After most of the New Fourth Army confronting him had withdrawn, he launched a desperate counterattack.  Try to re-seal the breach and eat up the follow-up troops still in Hexi.

    After the 40th Division concentrated its forces to launch a counterattack against Xingtan, the main force of the 52nd Division on the Bangshan front line in the south also discovered that the New Fourth Army troops in front of them had withdrawn. Regardless of its shortcomings of not being good at night fighting, it obviously accelerated its advance.  Already along the road from Bangshan to Sanxi, a fierce battle broke out with the rear-end troops of the Lao San Regiment, which served as flank cover for the military headquarters.

    A battalion of the 45th Artillery Regiment temporarily assigned to the 52nd Division in the Third Theater, equipped with German Bofors Mountain Cannon with a range of more than 9,000 meters, has begun to fall on the Xingtan line.  A small group of troops from the 52nd Division also appeared around Xingtan, bypassing the Lao San Regiment's blocking position and infiltrating.

    At the same time, the 144th Division in the west also accelerated the pace of its eastward advance under the urging of the 32nd Army Headquarters.  Already reached the front line of Gaotan and Shijingkeng.  The 108th Division, which had been advancing at the slowest speed before, also reached the north of Piling at this time.  At this time, Yang Zhen's hand, including the rear guard battalion that had not yet reached Xingtan, was only more than two battalions in strength.  In addition, the military guard company, engineer company and a communications company left behind by the military commander.

    Faced with the deteriorating situation, Ye Chao, deputy section chief of the Operations Section, and Yin Yang, deputy section chief of the Reconnaissance Section, who stayed with Yang Zhen in Xingtan Military Headquarters, were obviously unable to calm down.  After a brief discussion, Ye Chao persuaded Yang Zhen: "Political Commissar, according to the advancing speed of the 52nd Division, we will arrive at the front line of Xingtan by dawn at the latest, and the breakthrough is in danger of being re-sealed at any time. You see,  Shouldn¡¯t we withdraw as well?¡±

    "Judging from the advancement speed of the 52nd Division, we can reach the front line of Xingtan before dawn. If we don't leave, we won't be able to leave until dawn. We only have so few troops on hand, and the commanding heights south of Xingtan are on the four sides.  If it continues to be delayed in the hands of the Tenth Division, the consequences will be disastrous."

    In response to Ye Chao's persuasion, Yang Zhen looked at the two men who were left behind by the army commander with anxious expressions, but waved his hands in a very calm tone and said: "Why are you so anxious when the fire has not yet reached the house?"  ? Keep waiting. I won¡¯t leave without contacting Zhou Guisheng and Feng Dafei.¡±

    Seeing two people who still wanted to persuade him, Li Mingbo, who was beside Yang Zhen, dragged the two people out of the room that was temporarily used as Yang Zhen's command post and said: "Two section chiefs, it's better not to continue to persuade. I have the character of No. 1  I know better than you, and I can¡¯t persuade him at this time. If he says he won¡¯t leave until we contact the southern front troops, he will definitely not leave.¡±

    "And I have a feeling that his stay in Xingtan is definitely not just to gather the follow-up troops. He should have other ideas. The top priority now is to contact the southern front troops. As long as he can contact the southern front troops, there will be no one on the 1st  Reasons to stay here and continue the adventure.¡±

    Hearing what Li Mingbo said, Ye Chao couldn't help but stamped his feet and said to Li Mingbo: "How long has it been and you still say these useless things? You are the platoon leader of the security team next to the political commissar, and you know more about the character of the political commissar than we do.  . At this time, if you don't help us to persuade him, what does the political commissar think? But now, I just know that if I don't leave, I really can't leave."

    Looking at the anxious Ye Chao, Li Mingbo couldn't help but smile and said: "Chief Ye, if you can't persuade No. 1, why are you angry at me? And don't be too impatient. No. 1 is more complicated than this in the Northeast.  He can handle many situations. He won't take this small enemy to heart."

    "Besides, No. 1's trip to southern Anhui is just a temporary mission. There are still hundreds of thousands of troops waiting for him to return in the Northeast. Without certain certainty, No. 1 will not be personally involved in danger. Don't forget, No. 1 is still the commander of the Northeast Military Region  Member. He can still tell the seriousness of the matter. If he doesn't have certain abilities, can the central government send No. 1 here at this time? "

    "Two section chiefs, it is precisely because I know the character of No. 1 that I suggest you not to persuade No. 1 yet. Because you can't persuade them. The most important thing now is to seize the time to find a way to communicate with the southern front troops.  As long as we have communication with the southern front troops, No. 1 will have no reason to continue taking risks.¡±

    ¡°In fact, Li Mingbo didn¡¯t know what Yang Zhen was thinking.  Although Li Mingbo, the guard platoon leader responsible for Yang Zhen's close guard, could not understand the thoughts of the number one who was about the same age as himself.  But his long-term experience of working beside Yang Zhen told him that this young man must have his reasons for doing this.

    Although he couldn't guess the reason why Yang Zhen stayed here to gather the follow-up troops, he was certain of one thing. Judging from Yang Zhen's current responsibilities, he would definitely not stay here and take risks alone for a few companies. One of them was definitely  Don't have any secrets.  If they were so indecisive, they would still be able to create such a big world under such a dangerous situation in the Northeast.

    HeardAfter Mingbo's words, Ye Chao wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Yin Yang beside him: "Master, what he said is right. So many military chiefs have not been able to persuade the political commissar, and the two of us can't persuade him. We are still unable to persuade him.  Let¡¯s find a way to contact the troops on the southern front.¡±

    When I met Yin Yang, he said the same thing. When he was about to stay, he once accepted the special task of the military commander to kidnap the political commissar even if the situation worsened.  But now Ye Chao was at his wits' end and could only stamp his feet: "Grandma, if we can't contact you, I will go find the southern front troops myself. I don't believe that with Feng Dafei's ability, they can still be defeated by the 79th Division."  Did you eat the bastard?"
