    When Zhang Xian led people back to Tushanji, it was already bright. At this time, the fire in Tushanji had been extinguished. Long Tianya ran out from the fire-burned scene outside the ruined village and hit Zhang Xian.  Standing at attention, he reported to him what happened at night.

    It turns out that after Zhang Xian led his people away, Long Tianya was also afraid that something might happen to Tushanji, so he ordered all the ministries guarding the village to strengthen their vigilance. Everyone was very careful and did not dare to relax in the slightest.

    But the problem lies with the 1st Battalion and 1st Company of the 33rd Regiment, which is responsible for the defense in the south of the village. The company commander of this company is Captain Liu, whom Zhang Xian is very familiar with.  This Liu Company's eldest name is Liu Changgeng, and he is from Jiangxi.

    When Company Commander Liu was on duty at night, he saw a small group of people approaching. When he got closer, he saw that they were wearing national army uniforms, so he relaxed his vigilance.  There are more than twenty people in this team, and the leader is a squad leader, who is someone he knows.  This squad leader originally followed Zhang Xian to chase the enemy, but for some reason he turned back.  The squad leader told Company Commander Liu that he had to report important matters to Deputy Brigadier Long when he returned to the brigade headquarters. Company Commander Liu believed it and let him in.

    This group of people pretended to go to the brigade headquarters, but at this moment, Company Commander Liu suddenly found that one of them looked familiar, and soon remembered that this person had seen him in the battle of Nan Mali Mountain. He was the Communist Army.  Commander Wang of the Tiger Regiment immediately raised the alarm.  But it was still a step too late. The group took action immediately and quickly occupied the southern post. Immediately afterwards, the troops waiting outside appeared from nowhere and attacked from both sides, beating Company Commander Liu.  He was caught off guard and they invaded the village.

    Long Tianya heard the gunshots and hurriedly brought people over. The two sides started a fierce battle in the village. The fighting lasted for more than two hours. The communist troops withdrew from the village separately. When they left, they released a gun in the village.  Fire is coming.

    The squad leader who led the Communist troops into the village also ran back. He originally followed Zhang Xian to chase the enemy. He fell behind while relieving himself on the way, so he was caught by these Communist troops wearing national army uniforms and became a prisoner.  .

    At this time, Long Tianya had already taken Company Commander Liu and the squad leader into custody, waiting for Zhang Xian to deal with them.

    Zhang Xian thought for a moment. According to military law, Company Commander Liu must be demoted and the squad leader must be shot. However, this was far from a wartime time when strict discipline was needed. The battle was over, and he still felt compassion.  , the squad leader was demoted to a soldier, and Company Commander Liu recorded a serious offense.

    At this time, Long Tianya asked Zhang Xian: "I heard constant gunfire at Sanguan Temple at night. Did you gain anything?"

    Zhang Xian smiled bitterly, looked at him and said: "It seems that I have been fooled by the enemy. We have broken through the Communist position, and when we were about to step up the pursuit, we saw the flames shooting into the sky at Tushanji.  , I was afraid something would happen here, so I had to give up the pursuit!"

    "Would you like to stop chasing me?" Long Tianya suggested.

    Zhang Xian shook his head, sighed, and said: "It's too late to pursue them at this time. I'm afraid that even if we catch up for a day, we won't even be able to see their shadows!"

    The two of them sighed.

    Soon, Brigadier Yang Tao led the 11th Brigade and six other tanks to advance from Dayiji and quickly connected with the 118th Brigade. However, at this time, the surrounding People's Liberation Army had disappeared without a trace.  disappeared.

    ?******************

    Although this encounter with the People's Liberation Army in Caoxian lasted only three days, the reorganized 11th Division still suffered casualties of 3,000 troops. However, compared to the East China Field Army, which was several times larger than ours, these casualties were already very few.  .  Compared with the reorganized 11th Division, the East China Field Army suffered more than 4,000 casualties. Obviously, this battle still failed to get over the shadow of Nanma's failure.  However, this time, Chen Yi and Su Yu were able to make an immediate decision and take the initiative to withdraw, and did not develop this battle into a war of attrition, which is already commendable.

    Hu Congjun personally came to the 118th Brigade on the second day after the war. This battle was actually the 118th Brigade standing alone. If there were some mistakes, the result might not be as good as it is now.

    "Zhang Xian, how do you want me to commend you?" Hu Congjun was very happy, patting Zhang Xian on the shoulder and asking kindly.

    Zhang Xian smiled, but looked at everyone in the brigade headquarters, and said to Hu Congjun: "Master, our ability to persist to the end is not due to me alone, but to all the officers and soldiers of the 118th Brigade who share the same hatred of the enemy.  , the result of unity! Haha, if the commander wants to commend, I think all the officers and soldiers of the 118th Brigade should be commended!"

    Hu Congjun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became cheerful.??In these confrontations, both sides had victories and defeats. Generally speaking, whenever a battle started, the 11th Reorganized Division was always in a relatively weak position.  Although the final result of the battle is quite satisfactory, we can also know from this that Chen Yi and Su Yu were able to concentrate superior forces to surround the reorganized 11th Division. The leader of the opponent was not incompetent. If there was a slight mistake, then  The outcome of the reorganized 11th Division will be the same as that of the annihilated 74th Division, leaving only empty regrets!

    The next day, the reorganized 14th Division led by Peng Tianguang really joined forces. The two armies joined forces and pursued southward.  In order to prevent harassment, they moved very slowly. After walking for several days with a staggering pace, there was no trace of Chen Su's army.

    At this time, Chen Yi and Su Yu had already led the East China Field Army's outer corps across the Longhai Road and advanced into the Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu areas to reorganize their base areas.  On this vast and flat Huaihai Plain, a more magnificent war with far-reaching impact is also brewing.

    ?************************

    Chairman Chiang's commendation finally came. Hu Congjun was praised by the chairman as a victorious general because he had been awarded the Medal of the Blue Sky and White Sun, which represents the highest honor of the National Government, during the Battle of Western Hubei. So this time Chiang Kai-shek  He was also awarded a first-class Baoding Medal; Zhang Xian, who had meritorious service in guarding Tushanji, and Brigadier Yang Tao, who was effective in the rescue, also received a second-class Baoding Medal each.

    When this second-class Baoding Medal was hung on Zhang Xian's chest by Master Hu Congjun himself, Zhang Xian was filled with emotions. As a soldier, the number of medals he received was also an important criterion for measuring his value.  Zhang Xian still remembers that the first medal he received was when he was in Shipai. At that time, he took on a mission that seemed almost impossible to others, to rescue the captured American pilot Mike. In the end, with the help of Ma Wenlong, he  Next, he successfully rescued the person and received a fourth-class Yunhui Medal; the second one he received was a third-class Baoding Medal. That time he and Han Qi went to Wuhan to assassinate the traitor Gu Dingxin and succeeded.  Later, two people obtained it at the same time, and at that time he was promoted from major to lieutenant colonel.  The third medal was a second-class Army, Navy and Air Force Medal he received as the combat adjutant of the Sixth Theater after the victory in the Battle of Western Hubei.  The fourth medal was a second-class Yunhui Medal he received as the commander of the 169th Regiment of the 57th Division of the 74th Army after the victory in the Battle of Changde. At that time, he was promoted from Lieutenant Colonel to Lieutenant Colonel because of his military exploits.  For the Colonel.  The fifth medal was a first-class Yunhui Medal he received after the victory in the Battle of Western Hunan. After that, he was promoted to deputy commander of the 57th Division.  If this time is included, this is the sixth time he has been awarded the medal.  However, among so many medals, the only one he wanted to get was the Blue Sky and White Sun Medal, which represented the highest honor.

    At this time, the Ministry of National Defense decided to reorganize the army based on actual battlefield needs, that is, to restore the organizational structure of the army. However, this time the reorganization was different from the past. It did not simply remove the newly formed reorganization division.  , restoring the three-three system of corps, divisions, and regiments during the Anti-Japanese War, but directly combining two or three integrated divisions into an integrated army.  At this time, the reorganization division still had two to three brigades under its jurisdiction, and the brigades still had two to three regiments.  For the reorganized 11th Division, the system of three brigades and nine regiments has been restored, which is actually equivalent to the original army.

    The Ministry of National Defense decided to form the 18th Reintegrated Army on the basis of the reorganized 11th Division, and at the same time prepared to place the newly formed 3rd Reorganized Division under the jurisdiction of the 18th Reorganized Army.  Hu Congjun was naturally appointed as the commander of the newly formed 18th Reorganized Army. However, because there was no suitable person to take on the important position of commander of the 11th Reorganized Division, he still served as the commander of the 11th Reorganized Division.

    Hu Congjun's promotion was naturally a matter of pride, and he did not forget to promote his subordinates. Brigadier Yang Tao of the 11th Brigade was appointed as the deputy commander of the reorganized 11th Division. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is actually to  Train him to be the commander of the reorganized 11th Division.  The remaining post of brigade commander of the reorganized 11th Brigade was naturally given to Zhang Xian.

    But at this time, in the land of China, the autumn wind is blowing in the rivers and the dusk rain is falling on the mountains and rivers!

    The road ahead is bleak!
