Fourteenth Army Headquarters.

Guo Jiqiao looked at the telegram in his hand with a look of shock.

Even more shocked was the newly appointed commander of the 14th Army, Chen Tie.

Chang Ruiyuan personally appointed him to take over Li Mo’an’s 14th Army.

He seemed a little worried and asked him to continue to serve as the Chief of Staff of the 14th Army.

As for Li Mo’an who was at the command center.

I was even more dumbfounded at this moment.

He never expected that Chang Ruiyuan would ask him to pack up and report to the mountain city just after receiving a telegram.

What a fucking fuck.

Li Mo’an slammed the telegram in his hand on the table. He was so angry and resentful that he had nowhere to vent his anger.

As a classmate of the same period, Chen Tie didn’t know what to say to comfort him at this moment.

Guo Jiqiao saw some clues and comforted him, “You don’t need to worry too much about this matter. The old man is trying to make a roundabout transfer. When you go back this time and come back, you will probably be promoted to deputy commander-in-chief of the 14th Army.”

Li Mo’an sighed silently, and sat down on a bench beside him: “The principal thinks that the Jinbei front can do without me, Li Mo’an, but cannot do without Chu Yunfei.”

Guo Jiqiao and others did not expect that Li Mo’an would be so calm.

The words came to his lips, but he turned to comfort: “The principal naturally has his own concerns for doing this. Now that a new batch of equipment supported by the United States has arrived, it is understandable that he is anxious.”

“You know, one of our guns can fire at most 150 shells in half a month, while the Japanese can fire thousands of shells in one battle.”

“If Chu Yunfei’s troops hadn’t been quick in their anti-artillery operations, I’m afraid the number of casualties in our units would have been much higher.”

Li Mo’an sighed and turned to look at Chen Tie: “Zhijian, the 14th Army is now in your hands. They are all great people, so don’t let them down.”

“Please rest assured, Brother Mo’an. I will do my best to command and ensure victory in this battle.”

Li Mo’an sighed in silence: “I just can’t understand why we should abandon the current Great Wall defense line and go to a pursuit and annihilation war. What if this is a trap set by the Japanese army? Wouldn’t it be a waste of our main force?”

“Think about the Jining counterattack in the Fifth War Zone. The Third Army launched a counterattack under the strong order of Commander Li. What was the result?”

“It took more than 10 casualties to wipe out a Japanese battalion. The casualty ratio between the two sides was close to 1:. What was the point of such a counterattack?”

Guo Jiqiao remained silent.

He had no way to refute this matter.

In fact.

Because Li Zongren always liked to order his troops to counterattack.

This caused Chang Ruiyuan to complain about it.

There is also a classic scene in the TV series “Bloody Battle of Taierzhuang” during the defense of Teng County.

Tang Enbo said it was too late to provide support.

As for why it’s too late.

In fact, it was only when the Japanese army was approaching the city of Teng County that Li Zongren called Tang Enbo.

And at that time.

In fact, Tang Enbo’s troops did not belong to the command of the Fifth War Zone at all.

Tang Enbo led his troops by train to the north for reinforcement, but ran into the main force of the Japanese army head-on and suffered heavy losses.

That’s why there was the subsequent dispute between Tang and Li.

PS: The subsequent events have already been written in the previous plot, so I won’t go into details here.

During several counterattacks organized by the Fifth War Zone.

Even the great victory in Linyi and the encirclement and annihilation battle in Teng County led by Chu Yunfei.

The casualty ratio of both sides is not good.

Including friendly forces, the general casualty ratio is around 4:1.

The Jining counterattack launched by the Third Army was actually a counterattack of a statement nature.

It was carried out after Han Fuju was executed.

The Japanese casualties were not more than a thousand, but five hundred.

The casualty ratio between the two sides was not 10:1 as Li Mo’an said.

But it’s an astonishing twenty to one.

The reason why Li Mo’an resisted pursuit so much.

The fundamental reason for such resistance to attack is the lack of their own strength.

It is not just the problem of artillery shells as Li Mo’an mentioned, nor is it the loss ratio in the siege as he mentioned.

Just to name one, an essential piece of communications equipment for combat – the field telephone.

All the combat units of the Japanese army can be equipped to the regiment and battalion level.

In contrast.

Even the main force of the 14th Army Group, the 14th Army of the Central Army.

It is only equipped at the division-regiment level.

Field telephone equipment is provided to the battalion level.

so.

So far, only two forces have been able to do so.

One is Chu Yunfei’s troops, and the other is the Fifth Army.

And why did the National Army and the Eighth Route Army like to launch charges as a whole regiment or battalion?

The fundamental reason why even after a regiment was deployed, the width of the battlefield was less than one kilometer.

In fact, it is because of poor communication.

There is a huge gap in hard power between the two sides.

Therefore, every time Chu Yunfei makes a tactical choice, it will be quite radical and risky.

Just like a crazy gambler.

no way.

If he gambles, he still has more than a 60% chance of winning.

If you don’t gamble, there is no hope of winning at all!

And now, Chang Ruiyuan has transferred Li Mo’an away.

It is clear that they support Chu Yunfei’s counterattack.

No matter how hard Li Mo’an tried to figure it out.

It’s a foregone conclusion.

He could refuse Guo and Chu’s orders.

But he couldn’t refuse Chang Ruiyuan’s order.

Power requires accountability to the source of power.

But since he couldn’t reach Chu Yunfei’s level, he could only be obedient.

Seeing that Li Mo’an had calmed down, Guo Jiqiao gave the order: “The Fourteenth Army, immediately follow the order and pursue the enemy in front of you!”

Chen Tie immediately stepped forward and saluted with a click: “Yes!”

Li Mo’an subconsciously wanted to get up.

After hearing Chen Tie’s voice.

He couldn’t sit still anymore. This feeling was really too weird.

He stood up, looked at the two of them, and explained, “I’ll go back and clean up.”

After saying that, he left the command center without looking back.

Guo Jiqiao and Chen Tie looked at each other.

After a moment, Chen Tie came back to his senses and sighed faintly: “The principal saved Brother Mo’an.”

Guo Jiqiao nodded, and then slowly took out the telegram from his pocket: “Military orders are as heavy as a mountain, and military law is ruthless. If the 14th Army does not launch an attack on time, I am afraid that the first person to be punished by military law will be him, the commander of the 14th Army.”

Chen Tie was a little worried. He hesitated a little, gritted his teeth, and said, “General, the position of acting commander of the 14th Army is not easy to sit on. How about you take on the position?”

Guo Jiqiao chuckled: “You have to take the position even if you don’t want to. This is what the chairman wants.”

“The headquarters called and said that they have transferred Li Mo’an, the commander of the 14th Army, and they hope that we can fight this battle well.”

Inside the General Command of the Northern Shanxi Front.

When everyone heard the voice, they all looked at Chu Yunfei.

From the time when the 14th Army refused to carry out orders until now.

How long has it been?
Less than two and a half hours.

Li Mo’an, a direct descendant of the first class of Whampoa Military Academy, was transferred away from his original unit.

For a normal transfer, you have to wait until tomorrow at least, right?

this.
If you tell this story, no one will believe it, right?

Chu Yunfei’s consciousness quickly immersed in the three-dimensional combat map.

The three vanguard regiments of the 14th Army quickly launched an attack on the designated combat targets.

The right-wing attack force had already launched a pursuit.

No matter how this battle will be fought next.

In the pursuit tonight, they will definitely have the absolute advantage.

It definitely won’t be the Japanese army!
They all have absolute advantages.

No matter what he wants to test or what purpose he wants to achieve.

Chu Yunfei can be 100% sure.

When Yoshio Shinozuka realized the problem, it was too late!

“Is it according to the original plan?”

“Well, according to the agreement reached earlier, we will transfer Brigade Chen to the frontline in northern Shanxi. As for matters related to the 385th Brigade’s borrowing of the road, let Sun Ming handle it. He has dealt with the Eighth Route Army before, so as long as he is here, nothing will go wrong.”

“Yes!”

Fang Ligong turned and left.

Chu Yunfei walked towards the camp bed.

Next, all you need to do is take a good sleep, and when you wake up, it will naturally be a big victory!
“Report, the chairman has an urgent message!”

Headquarters of the commander-in-chief of the first war zone.

General Wei Lihuang smiled and said, “Maybe it’s a reward!”

Recently, he has commanded combat troops to launch attacks in both eastern and northern Henan.

The Third Army cut open the road between Lanfeng and Kaifeng.

The 81st Division wanted to launch an assault on Kaifeng and Lanfeng.

And they broke into the city of Kaifeng.

A headquarters of the 35th Division of the Japanese Army and a military warehouse were burned down.

Hundreds of enemies were killed and excellent results were achieved.

The Second Cavalry Corps attacked Shangqiu and set fire to the gasoline depot at the Japanese airport.

The Japanese 4th Cavalry Brigade, which came to reinforce, was ambushed while under his command halfway.

Good command.

The performance of each unit was even better.

“The First War Zone followed orders carefully and bravely, and finally managed to enter the provincial capital of Kaifeng, and was able to sweep away the enemy nearby and burn most of the enemy’s warehouses and supplies. Afterwards, they continued to cross the river and attack Zhongmu and other cities many times. This kind of indomitable courage is worthy of special praise.”

General Wei Lihuang laughed and immediately handed the telegram back: “Pass it on to all the troops!”

“Commander, there is another telegram.”

“Bring it here so I can see it.” General Wei Lihuang glanced at it and couldn’t help but sigh: “Li Mo’an is good at fighting but not good at adapting. Now he has become the first to stand out. Who else should we deal with if not you?”

“Without one Li Mo’an, there are still countless ‘Li Mo’ans’. Without Chu Yunfei, there will be no second Chu Yunfei in the entire North China region or even the whole country.”

“Captain Wei?”

“Forget it, call the Chairman and tell him I understand.”

“Yes!”

Since being transferred from the Second War Zone and marginalized by Chang Ruiyuan.

The relationship between Li Mo’an and Wei Lihuang began to become distant.

Wei Lihuang has made positive comments on Li Mo’an many times.

I believe that its tactical execution is very strong.

Can Li Mo’an fight this matter?

It was recognized by many parties during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

It’s just that I’m not good at adapting to this point.

It was also revealed at this moment.

Not convinced.

Feeling uncomfortable?
It’s ok.

Go complain to Chang Ruiyuan.

Even arguing with Guo Jiqiao is no problem.

Because Chang Ruiyuan won’t care, Guo Jiqiao can’t deal with you, a member of the first class of Huangpu.

No matter what happens.

At least the position of army commander can be kept.

But the person you are questioning is a young commander-in-chief of the front line.

A commander who has never been defeated so far.

Now, this is what happened.

All we can say is that Li Mo’an did not understand the situation clearly.

Two words: you deserve it!

Having a similar state of mind as Wei Lihuang.

There was also the Second World War Commander Headquarters that received the message.

However, Yan Laoxi, the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone, was calm and even wanted to laugh.

A military commander.

In just two hours, the Whampoa Military Academy’s direct descendants were taken away.

There is no room for negotiation at all.

Can be imagined.

To what extent does Chu Yunfei matter in Chang Ruiyuan’s heart.

“Commander Yan, your original choice now seems to be extremely wise.”

“Didn’t the Soviets say they were sending a delegation? Why hasn’t there been any movement for so long?”

“They said they came here via the land route. I don’t know what happened on the way. I guess these old Russians are thinking of taking this opportunity to map our northwest border.”

Yan Laoxi waved his hand nonchalantly: “The Northwest is a bitter cold place, what is there for the Russians to covet? What I am worried about now is whether they can reach the Second War Zone safely.”

“If we are intercepted along the way, it will be difficult for us to get the news, and it may even cause dissatisfaction from the Soviets.”

“Qingbo, I’ll leave this matter to you. We just formed a cavalry regiment, so you can take them out and let them get familiar with the terrain of Shanxi. It will also be an extra guarantee.”

“You mean, a trip to Suiyuan?”

“Yes, we still have to interact with Yisheng. Both of us have done some wrong things before, but it doesn’t matter. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, how difficult is it to join hands again?”

Seeing Chu Xichun silent, Yan Laoxi chuckled, as if to comfort himself: “He won’t embarrass a semi-retired old man like me, right?”

The two were talking.

Liu Tao walked up quickly and said, “Commander Yan, I just received information from the Jinbei Front Headquarters.”

“After a night of fighting, the Japanese 41st Division suffered heavy losses, with corpses scattered all over the ground. It is estimated that at least 2,500 enemy soldiers were killed.”

“In addition, the left-wing attack force commanded by Commander Chu also defeated the main force of the Japanese 20th Division and achieved considerable results.”

“However, what puzzles me is that Commander Chu did not continue to attack after achieving the following results. Instead, he ordered all troops to rebuild their defenses.”

“Maybe.” Yan Laoxi said halfway, and suddenly reacted and laughed: “Forget it, let him think about it himself. I am an old man, and my command ability is not as good as his!”

Chu Xichun smiled and patted the confused Liu Tao nonchalantly: “Commander Yan, it’s enough for you to hear some good news now. As for these things that always make people worry, let the front-line generals handle them themselves.”

“That’s right, but there is one thing you need to pay attention to. Remember to call back in time. Commend those who have made contributions and criticize those who have made mistakes. Let Yunfei draw up a commendation list.”

Liu Tao has already reacted at this time: “Yes!”

After the telegram was sent.

In less than twenty minutes, the reply was sent to the headquarters of the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.

Yan Laoxi glanced at the contents of the telegram and shook his head helplessly: “This Yun Fei is still so proud.”

Yao Qihua asked quietly: “Commander Yan, what about us?”

“Since Yun Fei doesn’t think this is a victory worth publicizing, let him do it.”

“Let’s just give some material rewards. I remember that there are more than 38,000 French francs in our account book?”

After thinking for a moment, Yao Qihua said uncertainly: “It should be possible.”

“Then take out all the money and reward the officers and soldiers who participated in the war.”

Yao Qihua immediately nodded and left: “Yes!”
