Chapter 1195 The commander of Zhang Fei who turned pale
Early in the morning, when Admiral Huang of the Eastern Shanxi Frontline Headquarters was squatting with a teapot and foaming at the entrance of the headquarters office with his white teeth bared, the colonel's adjutant from the headquarters rushed over from the communications office not far away.
, with a weird look on his face, he wanted to pass the message in his hand to the supreme commander of the Eastern Shanxi Front for viewing.
"Read it!" Admiral Huang took a mouthful of water and muttered impatiently.
The message that came early in the morning was definitely not from the headquarters of the Second Theater Command or the headquarters. In all likelihood, it was from the frontline departments. They were either asking for supplies of guns and ammunition or food supplies. Let Admiral Huang really
It's really annoying.
He is the commander-in-chief of the war zone. He is responsible for commanding operations, not being a wet nurse who delivers food and drinks. Even if he is a wet nurse, there are 100,000 people on the front line.
They can all be taken care of. No matter how much milk there is, these bastards will probably suck it all out!
"Commander Huang Junjian, deputy commander of the Second Theater Command, is reporting urgent military information. The officers and soldiers of the 386th Brigade and the 385th Brigade of our 18th Group Army's 129th Division are engaging the enemy's troops fifteen miles in front of Niangzi Pass.
The 26th Artillery Regiment fought fiercely and asked the troops on the Niangziguan and Jiuguan frontlines to launch a full-line counterattack after I bombarded the enemy on the frontline. Do not allow the enemy to flee north. We must completely annihilate the enemy's 77th Infantry Regiment and 78th Infantry Regiment.
Yours, Liu Deng, from the 129th Division on the eastern Shanxi front." The adjutant almost trembled as he read out the telegram.
There was a brief silence, and Admiral Huang, who was bulging his cheeks and still rolling water back and forth to clean his mouth, stared in disbelief at the adjutant who was reading the message. The adjutant was so stunned that he murmured: "After a call back to confirm, it is indeed the 129th Division.
The message codes sent by the division headquarters are all verified to be correct..."
"puff"
At this time, Admiral Huang was not frothing at the mouth, but foaming at the mouth. The poor adjutant colonel did not dare to hide, and was sprayed with foam on his head and face by the commander. He was aggrieved and already had
It's so weird, not to mention the irritated little daughter-in-law look.
The general wiped the corner of his mouth with a towel handed by the orderly, waved his hand to the orderly and ordered him to leave, threw the towel to the foaming adjutant and told him to wipe his face, reached out to take the telegram in his hand, and read it
Turning around and walking into the office.
The adjutant wiped his face and followed quickly.
"How many troops did the 129th Division of the 18th Group Army report to the headquarters to send troops to the front?" General Huang walked into the office, picked up a pencil and carefully circled dots on the map and asked without looking up.
"Reporting to the commander, in addition to the 4,000 troops of the 386th Brigade previously stationed in Qigen Village, the main force of the 129th Division that sent troops to the front line the day before yesterday reached more than 8,000 troops. The total number of troops in the entire division is more than 12,000." The colonel's adjutant did not dare to neglect and opened his carry-on.
folder, glanced at the battle report, and immediately reported it loudly.
"Then was he engaged in a fierce battle with the 20th Division's detour to Chaiyu Town early yesterday morning?" Admiral Huang asked again.
"Yes, the 129th Division reported yesterday that the main force of the 129th Division was fighting fiercely with nearly 6,000 Japanese troops in the Qigen Village area." Adjutant Hui reported.
With a "bang" sound, after drawing two circles in succession on the front lines of Qigen Village and Niangziguan on the map, the commander of the eastern Shanxi front line threw the pencil directly on the table and raised his voice several octaves, "He
Is Liu Bojian crazy? One division only has more than 12,000 men. Taking advantage of the terrain to block a main infantry brigade of the Japanese army is not enough. He actually has to dedicate nearly one-third of an infantry brigade to go dozens of miles away.
The artillery regiment of the Japanese aggressors was attacked secretly outside. This is not a skillful use of troops. It completely ignores the overall situation on the front line of Niangziguan and disregards military law. For this, the rest of the army in the Eastern Shanxi War Zone is asked to send troops to cooperate. It is simply unacceptable.
Li Yu. Pass my order to him to hold his position and not to engage in any surprise attacks. Otherwise, I will report it to the headquarters of the Second Theater Commander and give him a warning."
Admiral Huang was so angry that he had his reasons. The 129th Division was holding the entire rear flank of Niangziguan. If it fell, the entire Niangziguan defense line would collapse. Fortunately, the 129th Division blocked it, and the main force of the 22nd Army had already arrived.
On the front line, it only takes a few hours for them to reinforce the Qigen Village area. With these tens of thousands more people, the Niangziguan flank can sit back and relax, and the danger of the Japanese roundabout attack will naturally be eliminated.
In addition, in the early morning, under the personal deployment of the Nanjing commander, the Chinese Air Force took action and killed 24 fighter planes from two Japanese army aviation squadrons. Although such a great victory belonged to the Air Force, the battleground was in eastern Shanxi, under the command of General Huang.
On his own territory, he has already received this award.
So Commander Huang finally had a good night's sleep last night, and he knew that the 129th Division came to him so early in the morning, just a few hours later, no matter how fierce the Japanese offensive was, he would be the least likely to hit the front line in eastern Shanxi
It can last for more than a week, but now it is in danger. How do you think Commander Huang is not angry?
If it weren't for the fact that Commander Liu was older than him and had the rank of lieutenant general, I am afraid that the commander-in-chief of the Jindong Theater, whose title was only added to the rank of general from army lieutenant general in September, would have directly cursed in the telegram.
"But, Commander, if the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division attacks the position of the 26th Japanese Artillery Regiment, destroys those cannons and even uses them for me, then wouldn't the danger on our front line be solved?" The colonel's adjutant licked his lips and felt a little embarrassed.
Dry lips also let the wings of fantasy fly.
"Hmph! If the Japanese artillery position is so easy to attack, wouldn't I use this trick? According to intelligence, the number of infantry troops defending the Japanese artillery position is as high as 1,200, and the distance between the two infantry regiments is no more than 8 kilometers.
Do you think a division can capture its position within an hour? Even if it is unprepared." General Huang couldn't help but sneered and said.
"It's difficult! It's too difficult. I don't have this confidence," the colonel's adjutant said with a slump on his face.
Obviously, from a personal emotional point of view, he very much hopes that this battle of the 129th Division will be successful.
However, Admiral Huang's analysis shattered his good expectations.
"Hmph! The 18th Army ambushed the Japanese invaders and annihilated thousands of them in the Battle of Pingxingguan in September. The results were not small. Just after they won the battle, their appetite became bigger? They actually started to seize millet from the fire. Thousands of Japanese invaders' elite soldiers were killed.
Targeting at their heart, you really crushed the Japanese aggressors into pieces. It is extremely stupid." General Huang snorted coldly again, "Give Commander Zeng of the Third Army a telegram to strictly defend the position. Anyone,
Without my military order, no one can move out of the position. Also, the 22nd Army Headquarters was telegraphed to order them to stop repairs and immediately set off to build a defense line from Qigen Village to Shimen Village. No Japanese soldiers were allowed to threaten my main position at Niangziguan.
Those who violate the rules will be subject to military law."
Three minutes after the colonel's adjutant took the order and walked out of the headquarters, he came back with a grimace again, "Sir Huang, Commander Zeng of the Third Army called and said that the commander of the 129th Division, Lieutenant General Liu, asked him to prepare the entire army and send troops at any time to attack the Japanese 78th Army.
If an infantry unit fights in fear of fighting and refuses to advance, it will be the eternal sinner of the Chinese nation."
"Crack!" General Huang, who had just calmed down his depression, broke the pencil in his hand, opened his eyes angrily, and roared: "What does Liu Boxian want to do? He is the eternal sinner of the Chinese nation, he disrespects military orders and acts wantonly.
If this leads to the loss of the Niangziguan position, he will be the eternal sinner of our Chinese nation. Send me a telegram to the 129th Division Headquarters and order all 386 Brigades to immediately give up fighting the Japanese aggressors and return to their defense areas. Otherwise, they will be used as wartime
Engage in military law.”
The extremely annoyed commander of the Jindong Theater Command had no intention of saving face for Lieutenant General Liu this time.
But, on the battlefield, face is something that can only be gained with fists, not given by others.
As if to show off the raging anger of the supreme commander of the Shanxi Eastern War Zone, the sound of "booming" artillery rumbled from more than ten miles away.
"The Japanese artillery fired again. Come to think of it, Liu Bojian's infantry brigade was also finished." Hearing the distant sound of artillery, General Huang showed a trace of pain on his face, and he sat down on his chair with some dejection.
Whether an infantry brigade of the 18th Group Army lives or dies is obviously not the reason for the general's suffering. What he cares about is the safety of the flank battlefield at Niangziguan. He lost an infantry brigade or even more troops and was reduced to the Japanese army.
Can the thousands of men of the 129th Division with similar strength be able to withstand the 6,000 main force of the Japanese army for several hours? Can they hold on until the arrival of the 22nd Army?
Obviously, in his opinion, this is extremely difficult.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. On the other end of the phone was Zeng Wanzhong, commander of the Third Army of the Central Army on the Niangziguan front line.
Because telephone calls are easily eavesdropped, encrypted telegrams are usually used when there are important military intelligence reports, but obviously, Commander Zeng did not take this into account at this time.
Although what he reported was extremely important military information.
The commander of the Jindong Theater Command's eyes suddenly widened.
Really, at least in the view of the colonel's adjutant, he finally believed the exaggerated description in the book about the eyes being opened wider than bells. That was really not an exaggeration, but realism.
Commander Huang's eyes were really wide open.
"Commander Zeng, are you sure it's the Japanese position that's being bombarded? And, is it a 105 howitzer?" The top officer of the Jindong Theater Command asked this question in a voice that was almost groaning, which he had never thought of before.
Even if he had once thought that the first lady was really beautiful.
Happiness is what everyone desires.
But when a beggar suddenly wins five million, or a president wants to be friends with him, it is estimated that the first thing he feels at that time is not happiness.
At this moment, Commander Huang was like the beggar who was hit in the head by a thing called "fantasy" and was already a little stupid.
His eyes are so round, and his upper and lower teeth are clearly visible. If he were given a beard and a few small flags stuck behind his back, he would look like a white-faced version of Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide. He would still be in front of the Long Banqiao.
The kind that screams to scare away millions of soldiers.
