    "Whether this battle can be fought successfully is already crucial to our national army!" Hu Congjun continued: "The situation in the Northeast is no longer optimistic, and the situation in Shandong and Shaanxi is also in chaos. The most important thing now is  This is the battle we are in in the Central Plains. If we can defeat Chen Yi¡¯s main force in one fell swoop, then we can stabilize the situation in the Central Plains and boost everyone¡¯s confidence!¡±

    Zhang Xian also nodded, of course he knew the importance of it.

    "Actually, if our reorganized 11th Division can rush to the Suixian battlefield immediately, then we will have won half of this battle!" Hu Congjun affirmed.

    Zhang Xian was silent for a while. As a brigade commander, he did not have the details of the entire Suiqi battlefield at this time as Hu Congjun did, but he also knew a rough idea.  Since Hu Congjun said this, I think the battle over there must be at a critical moment. The two sides are fighting fiercely, and they are evenly matched; or it can be said that both sides have reached the end of their crossbows at this time. As long as one side steps up.  force may be able to make the other party retreat.

    "Huang Baitao received the reinforcement order at the same time as us, and we are about the same distance from the battlefield as them. Now they have arrived at Diqiu Store to the east of the battlefield, but we have only reached Zhoujiakou, so the old man said to me  Very dissatisfied!" It was only then that Hu Congjun revealed what really made him depressed.

    Zhang Xian looked at his commander, and of course he knew what he had in mind. Hu Congjun had just mentioned President Chiang¡¯s expectations for him. If the 11th Division was reorganized in this battle, it would be like the Battle of Kaifeng.  , returned without success, then if a new corps was established later, his future as a military commander would be a bit worrying.

    "But our situation is different from that of General Huang!" Zhang Xian also seemed a little aggrieved: "We were closely guarded by the Communist army. We set out from Runan on June 28th and were attacked along the way.  Despite being pursued and intercepted by Liu Bocheng¡¯s troops of the Communist Army, we have worked very hard to get here today!¡±

    "Yes!" Hu Congjun also said: "But the superiors don't care about this!"

    Zhang Xian also became speechless. Indeed, no matter how hard he works, if there is no good result, the process of hard work will not be recognized by others. This is what any officer would think.

    "Hey! Three days, we were delayed for three whole days!" Hu Congjun sighed: "If it weren't for the entanglement of these communist troops, we should have arrived in the Suixian area today. If this continues, I'm afraid we will not  In three days, we won¡¯t be able to reach the battlefield over there!¡±

    Zhang Xian couldn't help but frown. Hu Congjun's worries were not exaggerated. After crossing the Yinghe River, there is Huaiyang, and further north is the long yellow flood area. The marching speed there is even slower than here.  Halfway through, but there¡¯s still hundreds of miles to go!

    "Military, I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible!" Zhang Xian suddenly had an idea, thought of something, and made a suggestion.

    "Tell me about it!" Hu Congjun asked quickly.

    Zhang Xiandao: "Now, with our large army, it is almost impossible to reach the battlefield in Suixian on time. Even if our 11th reorganized division can advance by leaps and bounds, the two reorganized divisions behind will not be able to keep up.  Therefore, at this time, it is better to lead two regiments to the battle lightly, leaving the large troops to deal with the enemy. However, these two regiments are more mobile and can quickly get rid of the entanglement of the Communist army. Through the yellow flood zone, they can arrive early tomorrow morning.  Taikang, we can reach the battlefield in Sui County before dark tomorrow at the latest!"

    Hu Congjun¡¯s eyes couldn¡¯t help but light up, Zhang Xian¡¯s suggestion indeed had merit.

    Seeing that Commander Hu had pricked up his ears, Zhang Xian continued: "In this way, we can achieve the effect we want. These two regiments are our vanguard troops. As long as they arrive on the battlefield within the designated time,  There is nothing to blame for going up to the peak. Furthermore, our two regiments can be regarded as surprise troops, and they may be able to surprise the enemy. The only drawback is that it is a bit risky and may be attacked head-on by the enemy.  !¡±

    Hu Congjun was deep in thought. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly waved his hand: "Okay, Zhang Xian, just do as you said. You immediately gather the 31st and 32nd regiments of the 11th Brigade. Let me  Lead it personally and set off now!¡±

    Zhang Xian was stunned. Hu Congjun's decision was really decisive. He didn't care about his status as a general. He was obviously very urgent. He immediately said: "Military seat, I think I should take it with you. You should stay behind and take command."  !¡±

    Hu Congjun shook his head firmly and said: "Zhang Xian, I have to take action personally. Even if I stay, I can't withstand the letters above."nbsp;"It's very possible!" Liu Xinghua raised his head, looked at his political commissar, and couldn't help but said with some worry: "If this is really the case, that would be terrible!"

    Xiong Zhuoran thought for a while and then said: "The past from Huaiyang is the Yellow River Flood Area. Even if Hu Congjun's two regiments were lightly packed, it would take two to three days to cross Taikang quickly.  God¡¯s time!¡±

    "Today is July 2nd. If we really let them arrive in Sui County in two to three days, then our interception mission will be a complete failure!" Liu Xinghua was very sober and said immediately: "No, we must stop Hu Congjun's rapid advance.  !¡±

    "But how can we stop them now?" Xiong Zhuoran was also embarrassed. At this time, the Xianghe column was on the south bank of the Yinghe River, and most of the troops of the reorganized 11th Division had not crossed the river. They had to wait until all the enemies had crossed the river.  It would be the next morning, or midnight at the earliest. Although he could still harass these enemies and prevent them from crossing the river smoothly, he could not cross the Ying River to pursue Hu Congjun's two pioneers who had already arrived in Huaiyang.  condemnation group.

    Liu Xinghua was also in trouble. He turned around and saw Song Ping still beside him, so he asked: "Old Song, where did you meet Commander Kuang of the Henan-Anhui-Su Military Region?"

    "In Huaiyang, the remnants of his four regiments also retreated northward there!" Song Ping told him.

    "That's good!" Liu Xinghua turned around and said to Xiong Zhuoran: "Old Xiong, you should send a telegram to Lao Kuang now and ask him to organize his four regiments immediately. No matter how many people there are,  We must stop the rapid advance of Hu Congjun's two regiments over there, and tell Lao Kuang that a brigade from our Xianghe column will arrive soon, and he must hold on until dawn tomorrow!"

    "Okay!" Xiong Zhuoran nodded and immediately rushed to the reporting team to submit the report.

    Liu Xinghua then said to Song Ping: "Old Song, you have to go and see Commander Kuang again, explain the situation here to him, and tell him that I will personally lead a brigade to catch up!"

    "Yes!" Song Ping nodded and led the order to rush to Huaiyang again regardless of fatigue.

    Although it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, the summer sky was long, and it was still some distance from dark at this time, and the sky was still very bright. Liu Xinghua knew that he could not wait any longer at this time, so he ordered Liang San's brigade to  The commander set off immediately with his two regiments, crossed the Yinghe River from Libukou downstream of Zhoujiakou, and hurried to Huaiyang, leaving the raiding task on Zhoujiakou to Xiong Zhuoran.  , Xiong Zhuoran also happily accepted the order!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
