Commander Huang Wei finally walked into the venue. Before him, Chief of Staff Xiao and the two deputy chiefs of staff of the Twelfth Corps were already in place, sitting opposite Zhang Xian and others.
When Commander Huang walked in, his face was serious. However, in everyone¡¯s impression, Commander Huang rarely smiled, so they didn¡¯t notice anything strange.
Before the meeting, Chief of Staff Xiao briefly introduced the situation on the Huaibei battlefield at this time. Chief of Staff Xiao first followed Hu Congjun as the Chief of Staff of the 11th Reorganized Division, and can also be said to be the old commander of the 18th Army. Well, in terms of fighting against the Communist army, he is very much like Hu Congjun, cautious and measured, seeking victory in a stable manner.
Chief of Staff Xiao spoke very calmly. After talking about the military arrangements of both the enemy and ourselves, he finally said: "Now, the East China bandits of Su Yu's tribe of the Communist Army have entered Nianzhuang in the east of Xuzhou and are engaged in a fierce battle with the Seventh Corps. As for Xuzhou, they also mobilized the Second, Thirteenth and Sixteenth Corps to attack eastward. However, after Suxian County was captured by the communist bandits, Xuzhou was already isolated by the enemy, and our four corps there were not at the same time. We are not just idle people, and the communist bandits will find it difficult to capture them for a while. On the contrary, our 12th Corps has about seven columns of Liu Bocheng's bandits on the front. According to the report from Liu Ruming's department, the one who captured Suxian County was Chen Geng, the most elite one. For the fourth column, it can be said that the main force of Liu Bocheng¡¯s bandits has been exhausted between Huaibei and Mongolia at this time!¡±
Listening to Chief of Staff Xiao¡¯s analysis, everyone couldn¡¯t help but take a breath of air. By this time, Zhang Xian also understood why Huang Wei wanted to withdraw his 11th Division from Guohe Hebei.
As Chief of Staff Xiao spoke, he looked at everyone present, especially Huang Wei, who was sitting at the top. Seeing that he had no reaction, he walked to the big map hanging on the wall and pointed with his stick. The area above said again: "Our 12th Corps is facing the main force of Liu Bocheng's bandits at this time. He will definitely set up obstacles at all levels between Mengcheng and Suxian to prevent our corps from recapturing Suxian. If our corps is still waiting and watching here, we will definitely miss the good opportunity, and the gains will probably outweigh the losses. Therefore, our staff department has a battle plan. It is to move closer to Bengbu and fight with Liu Ruming's 8th Corps and Li Yannian's 6th Corps Join forces and advance together with the three corps to retake Suxian County! This is the safest and best strategy for us!"
Everyone nodded, but Huang Wei shook his head, took over his words, sighed, and said: "Although Chief of Staff Xiao's plan is the best plan for our Twelve Corps, it is no longer the best plan. It was rejected by the Ministry of National Defense, and I just received a call from Deputy Minister Liu, saying they don¡¯t agree with us moving closer to Bengbu!¡±
Everyone was startled, but Staff Xiao nodded, and continued: "Actually, we expected that the Ministry of National Defense would not agree. According to the opinion of the Ministry of National Defense, we must go north from Mengcheng, and the order The Eighth Corps and the Sixth Corps will go north from Bengbu along Jinpu Road, and the three parties will attack Su County, haha, but this is absolutely impossible for us!"
"Why?" Huang Wei asked first before anyone else could ask.
Chief of Staff Xiao said: "This time is already extraordinary. On the Huanghuaihai Plain, the two main forces of the Communist bandits have come out. It seems that they are going to fight us to death, and we must not take it lightly at this time. Sixth Although the Corps and the Eighth Corps are two corps, they are both a group of ragtag groups. They were newly established and the various units have not yet been fully integrated. Letting them attack north with us will definitely be timid. If we succeed all the way, they may will follow closely; if we have a difficult fight, they will definitely wait and see, so we cannot count on them at all. And with the combat effectiveness of our 12th Corps at this time, unless we wait for the 85th Army to join forces, if we want to use the current It is very difficult for troops to attack Su County!"
Everyone nodded, but Commander Huang Wei sat there, thought for a moment, rolled his eyes and looked at Chief of Staff Xiao, and asked unhappily: "Chief of Staff Xiao, do you think these communist bandits are too exaggerated? ? You have too little confidence in our 12th Corps, right?"
Chief of Staff Xiao was stunned for a moment. He already understood what Huang Wei was referring to. He immediately became serious and said solemnly: "Jun Zuo, what I just said is definitely not false!"
At this time, Yang Tao couldn't help but stand up, but he took out a pile of papers from the package beside him, handed it to Huang Wei, and told him: "Jun Si, what Chief of Staff Xiao just said is, I am here This pile of stuff is the propaganda materials of the enemy bandits collected by the 118th Division on the north bank of the Guohe River. Haha, they showed it to me, and I took this opportunity to show it to Junzuo today to have a look too!"
"Oh?" Huang Wei was stunned. Although he was a little dismissive of Chief of Staff Xiao, he was still somewhat tolerant of Commander Yang Tao. After all, Commander Yang was a leader in the Twelve Corps.?The deputy chief of general staff pushed up his glasses and said with some doubt: "If we fight like this, when will we be able to hit Xuzhou?"
Yang Tao looked unhappy and asked him, "If you don't fight like this, how can you fight?"
Deputy Chief of Staff Wen wanted to say something, but when he saw Yang Tao staring at him, he remained silent in the end.
Huang Wei was still a little hesitant and worried: "It's just that our actions still have to be reported to the President and the Ministry of National Defense, and we can only get their consent!"
Suddenly, Zhang Xian began to miss Hu Congjun again, and vaguely heard Chief Hu's confession: "The mission of our army is to win the war, and to win the battle with justice, we must be open and closed, advance and retreat. It's up to me and I must not be held hostage by the Ministry of National Defense! As long as the battle is won, even if I disobey orders and get killed, I will accept it!" Compared with Hu Congjun, this Chief Huang was too indecisive.
Yang Tao frowned again and couldn't help but said: "Junzuo can fight for it from above, report to them the seriousness of the current situation, and ask them to allow our 12th Corps to assemble in Mengcheng to wait for the 85th Army. The arrival of the follow-up echelon will postpone the advance to the north. At the same time, we must supply sufficient grain, ammunition, fuel and other materials to Bengbu nearby to prepare for the arrival of the war!"
Huang Wei thought for a while, finally nodded, and agreed: "Okay, I'll explain it to President Chiang and the Ministry of National Defense!"
Yang Tao and Chief of Staff Xiao met their eyes again and heaved a sigh of relief. Zhang Xian, who was sitting next to him, also let out a long breath.
The meeting finally reached a temporary combat plan. The Eighteenth Army occupied Mengcheng, the Tenth Army gathered from Xiyang and moved closer to Mengcheng, and the Fourteenth Army was deployed more than ten miles southeast of Mengcheng, together with the Eighteenth Army. At the same time, it urged the second echelon led by Deputy Commander Wu Zhou to advance towards Mengcheng.
As for the specific combat plan, Commander-in-Chief Huang Wei handed it over to Chief of Staff Xiao, asking his staff to come up with several plans to choose from within two days. Chief of Staff Xiao also agreed. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
