Chapter 85 208 Heights (twenty-three)
On the distant position, Liang Xingchu was commanding his two regiments to charge, but this time the Americans were more cautious. They always felt that things were not as simple as they thought? Why can Chinese soldiers burst out with such powerful combat power after a short rest? There is something tricky about this.
Liang Xingchu said to the regiment commander Deng Youdehe: "Whether our 8th Army can take down the twenty tanks given to us by the deputy commander-in-chief today depends on yours. This is an opportunity for our 8th Army. Whether I can show my face in front of others depends on you two boys. If you embarrass me, I will ask you to dig ginseng in the Northeast."
The two of them looked at each other and said, "Please rest assured, we will definitely complete the task assigned to us by the leader. Isn't it the opposite position? We are still afraid that they will not succeed? Unless our regiment has no one in the end, we will take this position to the death!"
Liang Xingchu said: "This time the deputy commander-in-chief sent a very powerful lineup to cheer us up. If you lose your chain, don't blame me for being engaged in the military law at that time!"
How could Deng Youde and the two know about a powerful lineup? Liang Xingchu came back from the meeting and assigned tasks to these two people. In fact, these two people were not confident. They just spoke just to avoid being inferior. But to be honest, they actually had no confidence in their hearts when they attacked the Americans.
The equipment gap between the two sides is really big. They have also seen the combat effectiveness of the Americans. Now the two regiments want to rush to other people's positions? Just relying on thousands of people, it is probably a bit nonsense. But now there is no way. Since the commander asked you to join, would you say you didn't like that?
However, the two regiments had too few troops and there was no cover, which was a bit depressing. Fortunately, they were not the so-called attack on the high ground, and the environment they were in is basically equivalent to a plain area. At this time, the two sides were actually fighting hard power, but the gap between offense and defense was still very large.
Deng Youde said: "Commander, will we give us some artillery support then? Otherwise, our losses will be a bit big. If only we could get a few tanks to go forward and open the way."
He nodded and said, "Captain Deng said it well. If this is true, it would be great. Unfortunately, we can only think about this. How can we take out such a precious thing at this time?"
Deng Youde said depressedly: "Since the deputy commander-in-chief has already taken it out as a reward, will it not be directly sent to the battlefield? Commander, although we said we were confident just now, there are more than 10,000 Americans in front of us. I won't talk about their conventional weapons, and the heavy weapons are much more cruel than us. Then we..."
Liang Xingchu said: "Deng Youde, are you talking too much? I, Lao Liang, are you the kind of person who asks you to die? This time I tell you that there is really a chance to make achievements and wait for you to fight for it? This time you are good at taking the lead, but I tell you that behind the lead is the main force of a division of the 18th Army, with more than 10,000 people."
Speaking of this, Liang Xingchu was really embarrassed. He originally thought that Wang Mingyu's purpose was to let them go, and then he would give him a reward. But he didn't expect that these twenty tanks would be no different from being sent for free? Could it be that if they didn't fight without these twenty tanks? In fact, the forces of the two regiments were just the first round of charge.
When Wang Mingyu said it, not only Liang Xingchu was stunned, but even President Peng was the same. This damn Wang Mingyu wanted to be a good person. The others beat their chests and stamped their feet. They knew that they missed the perfect opportunity to get twenty tanks at a time. But do you want Liang Xingchu to spit out what he ate into his mouth? This is obviously impossible.
Wang Mingyu said at the time that the people who were leading the way were to attract the hidden strength of the Americans, and then their mission was completed and they could retreat at any time. At that time, Liang Xingchu would just pull out the troops and respond. Twenty tanks were obtained in this way, is there anything easier than this?
But now there is such a good thing in front of him. After Liang Xingchu took this mission, he planned to take down the position even if he sacrificed three or four thousand people. In fact, these three or four thousand people are conservatively estimated. It was not that Liang Xingchu was desperate for twenty tanks.
In fact, Liang Xingchu himself also had his ideas. Dongye was criticized this time, which is well-known. Why is Liang Xingchu doing? Not to wash away Commander-in-Chief Lin? But everyone also understood that President Lin seemed to be a little suspicious of avoiding the war this time? Liang Xingchu had no choice but to prove with his own practical actions that Dongye could still fight, but not be afraid of any enemy. That is why Liang Xingchu tried his best to fight.
When General Peng asked to support Wang Mingyu's troops, Liang Xingchu also took the initiative to sign up. This is because Dongye's performance this time was really unsatisfactory. Originally, where did Dongye rely on the closest? Isn't it just rely on the closest to the Korean Peninsula? But Mr. Lin said he had his own considerations.
No matter what you think, you are suspicious of avoiding fighting. This is the most important thing. Of course, Dongye sent a small number of troops this time, actually some considerations from the Central Military Commission. But the first thing is that Lin Biao is not like fighting this war. He wants to preserve his strength.
The Central Military Commission is just following the trend, because the Northeast is very important. However, the front-line war is tight. Then the Northeast will inevitably become China's first gateway. If the troops are empty at this time, wouldn't it make people even more depressed?
Therefore, after careful research by the Central Military Commission, they believed that Dongye was not suitable for large-scale wars. After all, they still had a very unique grasp of the situation in the Northeast.
After you transferred the troops of Huaye into the East Field, are they familiar with the terrain? Are they familiar with the local area? Can they understand the distribution of troops in the Northeast? Can they make the most accurate judgment?
These are all problems, and they are also centered around these problems, so the Central Military Commission planned to ask Dongye to send a small number of troops. At least it proved that Dongye had worked hard. However, Liang Xingchu never expected that their role was to lure the snake out of the hole. If Liang Xingchu didn't accept such a good thing, then there would be a ghost? Now he couldn't wait to show himself well.
If Deng Youdehe's troops could take over the American positions, it would be a great achievement, not only getting equipment but also earning military achievements. Liang Xingchu thinks this should be a strategy of killing two birds with one stone. But the current situation is indeed a bit unstable, after all, the Americans' strength is still very strong.
Liang Xingchu said: "You two shouldn't look at me like this, right? This time, the deputy commander-in-chief was equipped with 100 tanks and more than 10,000 troops, followed closely. I will explain your mission to you clearly. In fact, it is to expose the enemy's firepower points. This mission is simple and simple, but if you don't do it well, it will suffer heavy losses. I hope you two can be mentally prepared, but don't blame me for not reminding you at that time."
Deng Youde was stunned. What's going on? One hundred tanks? More than 10,000 people? So what are the main forces of which? They are the pioneers of which? Isn't this someone used to explore the way? Who can't tell such an arrangement? They didn't plan to take the position by themselves at all, otherwise why would they have to work so hard to mobilize a lot of people?
This is a good thing for Liang Xingchu, and it is actually a good thing for Deng Youde and others. Everyone knows this, but people are always so mean, and this mentality of being a lowly person is difficult to change. If there is no such protection in the future, Deng Youde would think how can this battle be fought? Wouldn't it be a doubt that he will die if he fights like this?
But now the problem is coming again. People are not sure of dying. Now they have a hundred tanks and so many regular troops behind them! And they have also heard of the combat effectiveness of the 18th Army. In fact, their combat effectiveness is not only not weaker than them, but actually much stronger than them.
But now isn’t this looking down on people? Deng Youde feels that the 18th Army looks down on people like this, and looks down on people very much. Why do you say that? Because they think they should be very depressed, but now it seems that they are a little depressed. If they can’t beat them, they can run away, they can beat them and compete for credit. This advantage takes a lot of money.
Deng Youde said: "Captain, what does his 18th Army mean? Could it be that he bullies the 8th Army? They are playing with monkeys in our party. Are we like people who are playing monkeys?"
Liang Xingchu cursed: "I said Deng Youde, are you damn sick? Ah? What else do you want to do if someone helps us like this? Could it be that the life of your brothers below is not your life? You must be satisfied if they all die? I tell you Deng Youde that if you don't go, there will naturally be someone to go. If I, Liang Xingchu, don't want to go, there will be a lot of people waiting in line behind you? People look down on you? You don't even have the courage to take advantage of others. What do you want to give people to look down on you? Don't say that the 18th Army looks down on you, why do I still dislike you now?"
He quickly winked at the side, and then said to Liang Xingchu: "Commander Commander, Commander Deng was just a passionate person. Did he fight for our 8th Army? Speaking of this time, we took some advantage of the matter. If the 18th Army didn't mind, then we naturally didn't mind either. But this time we have to plan carefully."
Liang Xingchu looked at it and actually he didn't mean to get angry. In fact, Wang Mingyu did this. It was indeed a bit like using money and equipment to smash people. But they did try their best, and it took a lot of effort to do this. It was obvious that there was no reason for you to blame them at this time.
In fact, Liang Xingchu didn’t mean to be looked down upon by others. He took the initiative to fight for it. Besides, everyone thinks that there is nothing. If your own psychology is burdened, it is not someone else’s problem. It is your own problem. Therefore, Liang Xingchu feels that he has sent troops and has a clear conscience with this equipment.
Liang Xingchu said: "Now your task is to lead the way for others. But you also need to know that all these choices are in you. I only have four words to ask you, that is, to be unsatisfied. When do you think you have to withdraw your mind and have a clear conscience, you will withdraw. Liang Xingchu has never issued such an order in my life, but no matter what the final result is today? No matter whether you can walk out of the battlefield alive in the end, you will be the pride of our 8th Army!"
Deng Youde and the two of them quickly saluted: "Yes! Thank you, Commander!"
Deng Youde only realized at this moment that Liang Xingchu was actually a little angry. But the main goal was equipment. As for them, they were actually the people who took the equipment. Why was it said that the pride of the 8th Army? If his own troops had these tanks, a small-scale tank division or a tank brigade would have been basically built.
Since as a soldier, who doesn't want to compete for the first place? This is understandable, both now and in the future, so under such circumstances, everyone knows that Liang Xingchu wants nothing more than these twenty tanks. However, Liang Xingchu's order made Deng Youde and the two of them very excited. When did such an order have been there on the battlefield?
But today they received such an order, and the mobility was too great. At that time, victory and failure were only based on their own choices. Who doesn’t understand what Liang Xingchu meant just now? If they retreat, then so many people behind them are covering them. If they want to attack, the tanks behind them are also their strong backing.
In fact, they and the division of the 18th Army were actually protecting a hundred tanks and constantly approaching the American positions. Whether they could take the position at that time depends on the situation. Even Deng Youdehe's troops, Shan and the others would actually have a chance. At that time, they would not have to take the position. As long as they could tear a hole, Wang Mingyu would give them this first skill without hesitation.
But even if they did nothing, as long as they escort the tank to range, their mission was actually completed. Although Wang Mingyu said that their mission was to lure the snake out of the cave, Wang Mingyu did not tell the truth completely, because their mission was actually to escort the tank. But in this case, Wang Mingyu couldn't say it! (To be continued)
