662 Difficult to choose
Lei Yunfeng returned to the Western Front Force Command, first found Hou Sheng and Zhu Zhensheng who were arranged in the Operations and Law Enforcement Department of the Command, and then found Han Nina at the Telecommunications Department. Through the introduction of these three people, we roughly learned about the current combat situation of the Western Front Force.
When he heard Commander Wei mention that the 54th Regiment of the 30th Brigade, which was on the first line of defense, had been defeated and the 3rd Brigade of the Security Brigade took over the position, he not only said to Commander Wei: "Commander, now the 54th Regiment and the 62nd Regiment have been replaced. Can these two regiments be ordered to set up ambush in the Dongwuling area and attack the large enemy transport convoys to ambush?"
"You are a layman who only knows how to point fingers and don't know how to set up defenses on the front battlefield. It's best not to talk nonsense at the front line command center, otherwise I will drive you out of the Western Route Army."
"Chief Staff Xu, I am trying to find a way to show our military power for our troops and seize a large amount of enemy weapons, equipment and food to supplement our troops' serious shortcomings. Why do you say I am making trouble?
If you have a good way to get the troops to replenish important materials such as weapons, equipment, food, etc. in a timely manner, and can arouse the soldiers who have lost the first line of defense to cheer up, I would like to ask you, the chief of staff, for the good advice, otherwise don't interrupt."
"You, you bastard, dare to humiliate the commander at the front line command center. I think you don't want to live anymore. Since you want to die yourself, I will shoot you now."
"Liaoming, don't mess around, listen to Lei Yunfeng finish his words." Commander Wei looked at Lei Yunfeng and frowned and said, "Teacher Lei, the 54th Regiment was on the first line of defense and fought many positions with the attacking Japanese army. Almost all the commanders at all levels of the regiment battalion died bravely on the positions. At this time, the 54th Regiment had no new regiment commander yet, and I'm afraid..."
"Commander Wei, if you have not issued an order to appoint the 54th Regiment, I will recommend myself as the leader of this regiment and lead the 54th Regiment to cooperate with other friendly forces to fight an ambush battle to ambush the enemy's large convoy in Dongwuling."
"You? You are a guy who can only talkatively, and you're crazy about being an official, right? Every leader of the front battlefield is a hero who has emerged in many bloody battles of life and death. How dare you shamelessly propose to be the leader? Are you worthy?"
"Captain Xu, I, the colonel of the military command, have nothing wrong with the rank of the regiment commander? Let me tell you, I am not a waste of my life. If you doubt my command ability, I can issue a military order in front of Commander Wei and you."
"Leiyun Peak, this is what you said. Once you make a military order, you will be shot. Then don't cry and ask Shangfeng for you. Humph, no matter how tough your backstage is, I will never give you a backstage and still kill you."
"Okay, a gentleman is worthy of his word. Since Chief Xu said that to me, it means he has agreed to be the commander of the 54th Regiment?"
"As long as you dare to issue a military order on Leiyun Peak, I can convince Commander Wei to appoint you as the leader of the 54th Regiment, but let's talk about it. If you lead me to suffer casualties again, you will be punished on the battlefield and ask your brothers to carry you back. Do you dare?"
"Hahaha, what are you afraid of? Please ask the commander and the chief of staff to issue an order to appoint me Lei Yunfeng as the leader of the 54th Regiment, Hou Sheng as the deputy leader, Han Nina as the director of the communications department, Su Xiaoman as the deputy director, Fang Shichao and Zhu Zhensheng as the battalion commander, you can give orders."
Just as the two commanders of the West Route Army of Leiyun Peak and Zhongtiaoshan War Zone were asking for appointment, Han Nina walked in with two telegrams and shouted: "Report to Commander Wei, and the detective received the secret message of the Japanese army, which has been deciphered. Another command is the commander of the War Zone Commander."
Chief Xu took the two telegrams handed over by Han Nina, and handed them to Commander Wei after reading them, but his eyes soon fell on Lei Yunfeng again.
After reading the telegram, Commander Wei said with a serious expression: "The commander of the Japanese First Army ordered the Qinshui Army Station to quickly arrange a large number of transportation convoys staying in Qinshui City to arrange for a warning force to accompany him. He must drive out of Qinshui City within five days and safely arrive at Jicheng and Quwo to supplement the urgently needed weapons and ammunition in the front.
The commander-in-chief of the Zhongtiaoshan War Zone ordered our troops to send a regiment to cooperate with the 10th Division to set up an ambush on the Dongwuling line, eliminate the Japanese troops attacking our Quwo, Pinglu, Ruicheng, Puzhou, and Changzhi, and transport convoys that transport weapons, ammunition and other important military supplies."
Commander Wei said this and looked at Chief Xu and asked, "Liming, which front do you think our army can send a regiment to participate in the Dongwuling ambush battle?"
"Commander, the 54th Regiment that has been replaced, and the 62nd Regiment is the only mobile force in our army at present. However, these two main regiments have suffered heavy damage to block the enemy's attack on the first line of defense. Not only are there a shortage of weapons and equipment, but the casualties of the combatants of the two regiments have been greatly reduced, so it is difficult to become two entire combat regiments in cooperation with the 10th Division to set up an ambush."
Chief of Staff Xu Liming knew the current deployment of troops on the Shanxi Line of Zhongtiao. Even if the two regiments of 54 and 62 will be replaced, they will soon be used as reserves to supplement the frontier positions that need reinforcements the most, so he did not dare to use these two regiments.
He continued: "Commander, even if these two regiments can be mobilized, most of the battalions and above leaders of the two regiments who were severely damaged have been sacrificed. They have not yet been adjusted from other troops. It is difficult to form combat effectiveness without a chief officer at the regiment battalion level.
Even if the fully equipped regiment battalion commander may require short-term running-in training in command to form combat effectiveness. If feasible, I will lead the 529th Regiment to set up an ambush to Dongwuling and cooperate with the 10th Division..."
"Captain Xu, you are the chief of staff of the Western Front of the Zhongtiaoshan War Zone and an important general who cooperates with Commander Wei to command the operations. How can you leave the command post and lead a regiment to ambush? My Leiyun Peak requested again that I will lead the combat troops that have all the battalion commanders of the 54th Regiment, and cooperate with the 10th Division to ambush."
"Telecomman Lei, your mission is not to lead troops to fight on the front line. Besides, the 54th Regiment had just experienced a life-and-death decisive battle with the enemy. At this time, morale was low, equipment was poor, and weapons, ammunition and soldiers were urgently needed. You led the 54th Regiment, which was less than two battalions, to cooperate with the 10th Division to set up an ambush at Dongwuling. Once the insufficient troops and firepower affects this military operation, the highest commander of the war zone will definitely hold him accountable, and the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Commander Wei, as far as I know, the 10th Division of the War Zone was stationed in Zhongtiaoshan, and its combat effectiveness was maintained very strong. The commander's headquarters ordered our troops to send a regiment to cooperate in combat, mainly using troops to deploy defenses on the long transportation line. The 10th Division, which really fought head-on with the enemy, was the main force.
So the five brothers around me and I serve as battalion commanders of the 54th Regiment. After a short period of training and running-in, we will soon become a fighting group. When I come back triumphantly, I will definitely give you a 54 main group with excellent weapons and equipment that can fight tough battles and look brand new."
Chief of Staff Xu Liming didn't believe that the handsome scholar officer in front of him could lead a 54th regiment that had been severely damaged by the war and waited for rest and replenishment, and complete the task of cooperating with the 10th Division to set up an ambush to attack the Japanese huge automobile transportation convoy.
He sneered and sarcastically said: "Leiyun Peak, the 54th Regiment has been severely damaged. Even if my Western Route Army can't find a suitable regiment battalion commander, it is impossible for me to hand over such a Shaanxi Lengwa unit to you for trouble. Just shut up and rest."
Commander Wei is very aware of the difficulties and difficulties he faces in leading the Western Army to launch a head-on battle with the 110th Division of the Japanese Army on the Shanxi Line of Zhongtiao. If he mobilizes the 529th Regiment, which has just crossed the river, to set up an ambush at Dongwuling, his troops will lose the strong support of this reserve force.
Now that the 54th and 62nd Regiments have been removed from the first line of defense, the regiment battalion commander has not had time to be equipped, how can he pull such a unit up to set up an ambush in Dongwuling to cooperate with the 10th Division in combat? Should he really use the arrogant young man Leiyun Peak?
