    Qian Xiongfeng already regretted the heavy losses suffered by the 20th Brigade after fighting with the enemy's reorganized 11th Division. One of the two regiments of his brigade was almost completely wiped out by the enemy, and the rest were just  An empty frame in name only, the team that had just been enriched was suddenly beaten back to what it was before it came out of the Dabie Mountains.

    Qian Xiongfeng did not dare to hide anything and immediately reported it to Zongzhi. Commander Wang Yong personally led the investigators to the station of the 20th Brigade. At this time, his face was extremely ugly. He had never been angry with his subordinates before.  This veteran general got really angry this time and gave Qian Xiongfeng a violent reprimand. Later, at a meeting of cadres above the 20th brigade and battalion, Qian Xiongfeng was immediately given a serious warning and the political commissar of the 20th brigade  Li Qingcheng, the deputy brigade commander, also received the same punishment. One of the two regiment commanders was dismissed and the other was warned. Other regiment and battalion cadres were also dealt with to varying degrees. The 58th regiment leader who withdrew from the battle without permission was also punished.  The commander of the third battalion was also withdrawn, and the deputy battalion commander who put the 59th Regiment in a desperate situation when he ordered the retreat was submitted to a military court for trial and was eventually sentenced to death.

    The 20th Brigade, the main force of the first column, suffered such huge losses at this time. Wang Yong did not dare to hide it and immediately reported it to the headquarters of the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Field Army, which immediately shocked the entire field army.  Liu Bocheng, together with several other leaders of the Field Army Command, jointly issued instructions to the famous column, and also reported it to the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China. In the briefing, Liu Bocheng unceremoniously criticized the 20th Brigade in an unusually sharp tone.  And was particularly angry about the 59th Regiment in this battle. The report said: "This time the leader of the 59th Regiment lacked responsibility beforehand and handled it improperly. There are also a few cadres who did not take control of the troops in times of crisis to fight against the enemy.  Either alone or with a small number of people to escape, it is really an extremely shameful behavior of the People's Liberation Army! Any undue losses caused by negligence are a failure to the people, the party, and the revolution, or in other words,  A sin"

    This is also the first time that the heads of the field army have jointly criticized a regiment. This is undoubtedly a big blow to Qian Xiongfeng.  In order to appease Qian Xiongfeng's mood, and at the same time to prevent him from becoming discouraged, Wang Yong specifically found him and had a heart-to-heart talk with him.

    "Old Qian, do you have any opinions on the punishment of your brigade this time?" Commander Wang asked straight to the point.

    "No objection!" Although Qian Xiongfeng felt useless, he still accepted the punishment very sincerely.

    "I know you want to win the war, and I can understand this, but you can't fight randomly regardless of terrain or conditions!"

    "Yeah!" Qian Xiongfeng could only nod and listen. After this defeat, he first held an internal review meeting in the entire brigade. At the meeting, he also became the target of everyone's criticism. These words were not the first  Listened to it once.

    "You know? I made three fatal mistakes in this battle!" Wang Yong analyzed it for him.

    Qian Xiongfeng was startled and turned to look at his boss, wanting to hear his comments.

    Wang Yong said: "First of all, you were determined to engage in a firefight with the enemy's 11th Brigade when you shouldn't have fought. You knew the enemy was nearby, but you didn't move away. You took risks and attacked just to make a small profit. This was the main reason for your failure.  !¡±

    Qian Xiongfeng nodded. Before the war, although he wanted to fight Zhang Xian, his superiors kept asking the 20th Brigade to move as soon as possible, but he failed to understand the superior's intention in time and was still dreaming of wiping out Cao Jinya's security guards.  team, so that the opportunity for a successful transfer was ultimately lost.

    "Secondly, you did not follow my request to go west, but instead went east to move closer to the main force on your own initiative, forgetting your main mission. This is also the most inappropriate thing! Are you so afraid of the enemy?"

    "Yes!" Qian Xiongfeng nodded. Indeed, if according to the above decision, the 20th Brigade moved west instead of east, it would be impossible to meet Zhang Xian's reorganized 11th Brigade.  But when it came to saying that he was afraid of the enemy, he was a little unconvinced and said: "Commander, you said that my command was wrong, I admit it! But when I fight, I have never been afraid of death!"

    "I didn't say you were afraid of death! If you are really afraid of death, you are not worthy of being a company commander!" Wang Yong grabbed him.

    Qian Xiongfeng lowered his head and stopped answering.

    "There is another deep-seated reason!" Wang Yong said again: "After your 20th Brigade won two battles, you began to feel elated. First of all, since you became the brigade commander, you have already had the idea of ??underestimating the enemy.  This is carelessness! Old money, you have also been through the hail of bullets. You must know that in this battle, there is no chance of luck. Even a slight mistake may lead to tragic consequences.The section from Zhengzhou to Xinyang on the Han Railway is the defense area where the 11th Reorganized Division is located; and the Zhengtong Line mentioned refers to the section from Zhengzhou to Tongguan on the Longhai Railway. The Battle of Zhengtong was to find a fighter plane in this section.  !

    One of the recipients of this telegram is the Chen Xie Corps and the other is the Chen Tang Corps.  The Chen-Tang Corps was a corps that was split off from the East China Field Army.

    At this time, the East China Field Army was developing rapidly, and it was already strong and strong, reaching an unprecedented number of nearly 360,000 people. Together with the more than 380,000 local troops in the East China Military Region, the total number reached more than 740,000 people.  The Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Field Army led by Liu Bocheng and Deng Xiaoping formed a sharp contrast.  After Mao Zedong opened the Central Plains battlefield with Liu Deng, Chen Su and Chen Xie Corps, he immediately thought of developing to the south of the Yangtze River and prepared to send a part of the East China Field Army to cross the Yangtze River and open a new battlefield.  For this reason, after New Year's Day in 1948, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to divide the East China Field Army into four corps. The first, fourth and sixth columns of the East China Field Army formed the first corps. Su Yu was appointed as the commander of this corps.  The commander and political commissar, known as the Suyu Corps, prepared the regiment to cross the river south.  The Seventh, Ninth and Thirteenth Columns of the East China Field Army and the Bohai Column formed the Second Corps. Because this Corps was composed of the troops originally left in Shandong, it was also called the Shandong Corps.  The Third Corps was composed of the 3rd, 8th and 10th columns of the East China Field Army. Chen Shiju was also the commander, and Tang Liang was also the political commissar, so it was also called the Chen-Tang Corps. This corps was mainly active in the Central Plains and was assigned to Liu Bocheng by the Military Commission.  , Deng Xiaoping unified command.  The second column of the East China Field Army was transferred south to central China, and together with the 11th and 12th columns originally in central China, they formed the fourth corps. Because this corps was active in the northern Jiangsu region of central China, it was also called the northern Jiangsu corps.

    After receiving the telegram from the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China, the commanders of the two corps, Chen Xie and Chen Tang, simultaneously set their sights on the ancient capital Luoyang, an important city located in the middle of the Zhengtong Line.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
