    After Army Commander-in-Chief Gu Zhutong took office in Xuzhou, he discussed with his staff whether the current national army combat system was suitable for the current battle with the Communist Army. Some people suggested that the army should refer to the army's formation of corps in the late Anti-Japanese War to fight in such a wide area.  , it is impossible for everything to be decided by the chief executive.  According to the current high-level command structure of the national army, when several integrated divisions cooperate in operations, the name of the group army is often based on the name of the region or mission, which is canceled or reorganized after the combat mission is completed.  In terms of organization, the commander of the reorganized division is usually the commander. Only a few have a full-time commander. The command structure is also very simple, with a staff office, several staff officers, electricians, adjutants, and more.  Just add a squad or company of guards.  Without a high-level headquarters with a professional staff group, such a command organization can only undertake the tasks of uploading and issuing tasks, and it is difficult to effectively command the army. In addition, when commanders are temporarily appointed, many division commanders are originally on equal terms with each other.  In a high-level relationship, it will naturally be very unpleasant if you have to be led at this time, so scenes of mutual lack of cooperation often occur.

    After the Xuzhou and Zhengzhou Appeasement Offices were abolished, how to command the numerous troops under these two units and conduct effective operations became a problem that had to be solved. Therefore, before another key attack on the Communist Party's Shandong Liberated Areas  , the Corps came into being.  Indeed, at this time, it is particularly important to establish a dedicated corps headquarters.

    Before the launch of this offensive against the Shandong Liberated Areas, Commander-in-Chief Gu established three corps. These corps have special commanders and independent headquarters. They are directly commanded by the Xuzhou Headquarters of the Army General Headquarters, and also have technical personnel below.  Ability to coordinate and command the advance, retreat, attack and defense of several integrated divisions.

    The First Corps has Zhang Linfu's reorganized 74th Division as the main force, including the reorganized 25th, 28th, 57th, 65th, 74th and 836th divisions, a total of 19 brigades, Commander  The official is Tang Enbo.

    The Second Corps was formed based on the reorganization of the 27th Army. The main force was Qiu Yuqing's Fifth Army, including the Fifth Army. The 72nd, 75th and 85th divisions were reorganized into ten brigades in total. Commander  The official is Wang Jingjiu.

    The Third Corps is based on the reorganization of the 19th Army. The main force is Hu Congjun's reorganization of the 11th Division, including the 7th Army, the 9th, 11th, 20th, 48th, 64th, and 84th.  The divisions totaled eighteen brigades, and their commander was Ou Zhen.

    In this attack on the Shandong Liberated Area, the First Corps set out from near Linyi and advanced north along the Linmeng Highway. For this reason, Tang Enbo set up his headquarters in Linyi, but in his corps, although  He was the main commander, but faced with the reorganization of the 74th Division, an ace whom Chairman Chiang regarded as a model, he was somewhat incompetent in commanding.  At the beginning of the war, Zhang Linfu was very dissatisfied with his superiors' decision to move his reorganized 74th Division into the mountains. The equipment of the reorganized 74th Division was not suitable for mountain operations, and this division had not participated in the Yunnan-Burma Campaign that year.  He did not have enough experience in fighting in mountainous areas, so Zhang Linfu said in front of Commander Tang: "Sending our 74th Division to the mountainous areas is tantamount to killing us! Well, I'll go  I'll die for you!" Faced with Zhang Linfu's dissatisfied rants, Tang Enbo, as the commander, was speechless and could only comfort him with kind words.  Although things have passed like this, this may be a very ominous omen!

    The Second Corps is located along the Tai'an line of the Jinpu Railway. The Fifth Army has the same task as the reorganized 11th Division, except that they attack eastward from near the railway line, with the goal of Laiwu City, which has just been captured by the Communist Army.  The Fifth Army is the closest to the reorganized 11th Division.

    The reorganized 11th Division is under the control of the Third Corps. In addition to the reorganized 11th Division, most of the Third Corps is still near the Jinpu railway line and canal in Zaozhuang, Tengxian and other places. At this time, it is also heading northeast in order to advance in Mongolia.  Meet near Yin.

    Another war has just begun on the land of Qilu!

    *********************

    The 11th Brigade took the lead and had already arrived at the foot of Mengshan Mountain.

    Yimeng Mountain is actually just a humanistic geographical name, not a mountain or hill in the true sense.  Yi refers to the Yi River that originates from Mengshan Mountain. It originates near Nanma, passes through Linyi to the south and then flows into Jiangsu; Meng refers to Mengshan Mountain in the south of Shandong Province, which is the Taiyi Mountains in Shandong Province.  A branch of the mountain, running from northwest to southeast, the highest peak is Guimengding in Pingyi County, with an altitude of 1,156 meters. It is also the second highest peak in Shandong Province after Mount Tai.  This area is located east of the Jinpu Railway, south of the Jiaoji Railway, north of the Zaozhuang, Linyi, and Rizhao lines, and to the sea in the east. It covers an area of ??tens of thousands of square kilometers and includes dozens of counties.  Yimeng Mountain AreaBoth Xian Xian and Yang Tao followed the sound, and sure enough, in the green wilderness, a very high mound of earth was raised on a flat ground, which was two or three miles long, stretching across the open land from north to south.  On the flat ground.

    "Let's go over there and have a look!" Yang Tao said to everyone.

    At that moment, several people went down the hill and rode their horses to the side of the mound. Only then did they realize that the mound was nearly ten meters high, and even at the top it was more than ten meters wide.  There is no river nearby. This dirt ridge is definitely not a dyke. It is obviously an ancient city wall made of rammed earth. It is likely that this was once the ruins of an ancient city. However, due to the age, this ancient city has been annihilated.  In the long history, only this section of the city wall that is above the surface is still standing on this wasteland. However, after countless years of wind and rain, this section of the city wall also collapsed and merged with the surrounding earth cities.  , it is already covered with weeds.

    "Haha, this is really my fault!" Brigadier Yang Tao laughed and said loudly to Zhang Xian: "Zhang Xian, this mound is a natural barrier!"

    "Yes!" Zhang Xian echoed: "We can camp the troops behind this mound, and at the same time send two battalions or a reinforced battalion to garrison on this mound, build fortifications, and take strict security;  With artillery support at the back, aim the guns directly in front of the mound; in this way, even if the Communist army comes to sneak attack at night, we can face it calmly!"

    "Yes!" Yang Tao also said: "We have been fighting the Communist Army for so long. These Communist Army are night owls and always attack us at night. I don't think we were so tired when we were fighting against the Japanese!  It¡¯s impossible to even get a good night¡¯s sleep!¡±

    "Haha, yes!" Zhang Xian replied, suddenly remembering that he and Ma Wenlong had joined forces together to launch a night attack on the Japanese. That time they attacked an airport under construction by the Japanese army and successfully rescued thousands of people.  The prisoners of war of the National Army and the Communist Army only caused many prisoners of war to die under random gunfire.  Thinking of this, he suddenly moved and said to Yang Tao: "Brigadier Commander, why do we always wait for the Communist army to launch night attacks on us, and why don't we take the initiative to launch night attacks on them? What if we also do it for them?  A night attack will definitely catch them off guard!"

    Hearing this, Yang Tao couldn't help being stunned!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
