    At this time, the 11th Reorganized Division has become the fire brigade of the national army. Wherever there is an emergency, it will be mobilized. However, by the time the 11th Reorganized Division arrives, the battle there is either basically over or close to it.  The end.

    Going west from Lanling Town, we first went to Yixian County, which was captured by the Communist Army, and then went north to Zaozhuang City.  At this time, the Lunan Campaign had ended. The Communist Party called this battle the Lunan Victory, while the Kuomintang called it the Zaoyi Battle.  The 26th Reorganized Division of the National Army stationed in Yixian and the 51st Reorganized Division stationed in Zaozhuang were only an empty shell at this time. The establishment was still there, but the two divisions were actually completely wiped out.

    Zhang Xian was very surprised. He didn¡¯t understand what these Communist troops were thinking. Why did they abandon Yixian and Zaozhuang after struggling to recapture them and not hold on to them?  It was not until much later that he understood the combat policy of these communist forces: "The main thing is not to gain or lose a city or a place, but to annihilate the enemy's effective force!" This policy is undoubtedly very correct for the Communist Party.  Therefore, they can always concentrate their main force, but after the national army retakes the city, they have to divide their forces to guard it. In this way, it is equivalent to putting shackles on themselves, so what if they have an absolutely large number of troops?  After being divided in this way, it was eventually dispersed without knowing it.

    The reorganized 11th Division was stationed in Zaozhuang for a week. At this time, Chief of Staff Chen Cheng personally came to the Xuzhou camp, preparing to command more troops to carry out the final blow against the Communist army led by Chen Yisuyu.  From the perspective of people in the Ministry of National Defense, the main reason why the Communist army did not hold on to the place and retreated was because its casualties were also very serious. It was similar to the Japanese army fighting in the Battle of Changde, which captured Changde.  The city was unable to defend itself.

    The combat plan has been formulated, which is to adopt the strategy of a north-south pincer attack. The reorganized 19th Army, headed by General Ou Zhen, will serve as the main attack group on the southern line and attack the Linyi area. This time everyone has learned the lesson, and the divisions and brigades have  They are not allowed to act separately, but move forward together, in a group, and never stand out.  On the northern line, the Second Appeasement District under the Xuzhou Appeasement Office was responsible for the pincer attack from the north, and the 46th Army, 73rd Army and 12th Army under its jurisdiction pressed directly towards the south.

    This battle plan was called the Battle of Lunan by the National Army. The purpose was very simple, that is, to capture Linyi City and fight the Communist Chen Su Corps in a decisive battle for victory.  In the eyes of these battle-experienced generals, taking Linyi is a must-win territory, and the Communist army will definitely defend it.  But these generals ignored the fact that China is still an agricultural country, and the importance of cities is far less prominent than that of industrial countries. As long as they set a foothold in the countryside, even if they do not capture a city, it will not affect their own survival!

    As the southern offensive corps, the reorganized 11th Division was organized as the main force of the left attack. This route is located to the west of Yihe River, from Zaozhuang to the east through Xiangcheng, capture Cangshan, and attack Linyi.  The real main force of this battle was the reorganization of the 74th Division, which was located in the middle road, between the Yi River and the Shu River, heading north from Tancheng and approaching Linyi along the Tanlin Highway.  At the same time, there is a right-leg corps east of the Shu River, which is composed of the 25th Reorganized Division and the 65th Reorganized Division. The combat capabilities of these two divisions are much worse.  In order to be ready to respond at any time, there are still many troops on standby in the Longhai line in the south and the Lincheng and Hanzhuang areas in the west, ready for reinforcements at any time.

    About a week after the Spring Festival, that is, January 31, the attack had begun, but at this time, the situation suddenly changed.  The three regiments on the southern front moved very carefully, following the established plan every day and never exceeding it. Even in the face of Chen Su's regiment's lure and interference, they were indifferent and moved forward to encircle them.

    At this time, the East China Field Army seemed to be waiting for a showdown with the main force of the Nationalist Army. There were also great differences within the Communist Party on the issue of whether to defend Linyi. First, three plans were formulated to defend Linyi. In fact, these three plans  Each plan is to lure the enemy to stand out, and then gather them together to annihilate them. It is just a question of which national army unit to annihilate first.  Of course, the top priority is to attack the two weak brigades on the east route first, followed by the reorganized 11th Division on the west route. If that doesn't work, we have to try to reorganize the 74th Division, the ace of the national army.  When this plan was initially formulated, Chen Yi and Su Yu mobilized various columns to actively move to confuse their opponents.  However, the three national armies on the southern front were unmoved and were still proceeding step by step. At this time, the three national armies led by Li Xianzhou on the northern front had already occupied the Laiwu and Xintai areas, directly threatening the  Behind the East China Field Army.  In desperation, Chen Yi and Su Yu had to make the decision to abandon Linyi and shifted their attention north to the National Army's Northern Front Group in the direction of Laiwu.

    Faced with Chen Su¡¯s regiment¡¯s avoidance of fighting, all roads on the southern front advanced very smoothly. Apart from a few harassing Communist troops, they encountered almost no major obstacles along the way. The army headed straight for Linyi.Although he was promoted to squad leader, this was far different from his position as company commander in the national army. In addition, the food and treatment there were not as good as those in the national army, so the plainclothes troops who besieged Xiong Kaiping  During the search team, Song Zhipeng led his squad of liberation fighters to give Xiong Kaiping a way out, and at the same time ran back with them.

    Zhang Xian was the first to receive the acting company commander named Song Zhipeng. During the conversation, he suddenly discovered an important clue. He immediately felt that the situation was serious and rushed with this person to the headquarters of the 11th Division urgently.  , went to meet the teacher Hu Congjun.  But unfortunately, Hu Congjun was not at the division headquarters. He took people downstairs to inspect the training departments of various divisions. The adjutant answered the call for a long time but still did not answer Master Hu's call.

    "Can you get through the call of General Wang Hui of Jinan?" Zhang Xian asked the operator in front of him anxiously.

    "Yes!" The operator told Zhang Xian: "Mr. Hu had a phone call with Commander Wang yesterday!"

    "Then please help me get through there immediately!" Zhang Xian begged.

    The operator was a little embarrassed: "Captain Zhang, isn't this bad?" He felt that Zhang Xian had exceeded his authority.

    "I have an urgent military situation. The division commander is not here, so I must notify Commander Wang immediately!" Zhang Xian told the operator, and at the same time said: "Don't worry, the division commander will not blame you!"

    "Yes, I will just report to the division commander when he comes back!" the adjutant next to him also guaranteed.

    The operator said: "It's easy to talk to our division. I'm just afraid that Commander Wang will be unhappy. His official position is so big, I don't know if he wants to talk to you!"

    "Haha!" Zhang Xian laughed and told him: "After you get through, just say that Zhang Xian from the 11th Division requests to speak to Commander Wang, and Commander Wang will definitely put down what he is doing and come over to answer the phone!"

    The operator couldn¡¯t believe it, and there was an unnatural expression on his face that he thought he was bragging.

    "Just take it!" the adjutant explained to him: "Captain Zhang was originally a subordinate of Commander Wang, and he is very familiar with Commander Wang!"

    The operator suddenly realized it, and quickly took action to take him to the Second Appeasement District Headquarters in Jinan.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
