Age of Conquest Reborn

On the way to Singapore, the special plane landed at Peking Nanyuan Airport. In the lounge of the airport, Tang Qiuli secretly summoned the armored commander Battelle. Not long ago, he was transferred from the commander of the Henan Garrison Command to the Pingjin Garrison Command.

Commander-in-Chief Major General Yuan Jinghao.

Yuan Jinghao is also an old man of the Independent Division. As the commander of the Fourth Independent Brigade, he was first transferred to the commander of the Shaanxi Garrison Command. Later, under the attack of the Japanese army, Tang Enbo defeated Henan and rushed to the northern Hubei region.

After the independent division troops defeated the Japanese army, they naturally took over Henan. Yuan Jinghao was transferred to the Henan Garrison Command as the commander. Two months ago, he was transferred to the Pingjin Garrison Command as the commander.

The achievements Yuan Jinghao made while presiding over the military affairs in Henan impressed Tang Qiuli. He was a good hand in both military and government affairs. Tang Qiuli had his own considerations when he was transferred to the Pingjin area.

The Pingjin area is the strategic rear and base for recovering the Northeast. Deploying a good person to take charge of the military and political affairs in the Pingjin area can be said to lay the foundation in advance for the upcoming campaign to regain the Northeast. Tang Qiuli was worried that Yuan Jinghao would not understand this, so

, and then summoned him alone.

The meeting with Battelle was also conducted in secret. Tang Qiuli told Battelle that the armored force command organization would be secretly transferred to the Pingjin area. The troops remaining in the Indochina Peninsula would be secretly transferred to the Pingjin area before the end of the year.

Before the end of March next year, four more tank brigades and two armored brigades will be formed. Three of the tank brigades will be transferred to Outer Mongolia after the formation is completed.

Battelle listened quietly without saying a word, his eyes flashed with wisdom. When Tang Qiuli finished explaining, Battelle smiled slightly and said: "Brother, are you planning to take action against the Kwantung Army and recover the Northeast?

"

Tang Qiuli looked at his heroic younger brother dotingly and joked: "Hey, when did you learn to observe words and expressions? You are the only smart one. Tell me, what do you think?"

Battle said with a smile: "Brother, I made a mistake, don't blame me. Looking at your layout, the direct corps remains in Outer Mongolia, Deputy Commander Liu's East Point troops are in Chita, and Commander Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan garrison

The corps is on the front line in western Liaoning. Do you want to attack in three ways? Send troops at the same time to divide the little Japanese in the northeast into three non-connected parts and defeat them one by one?"

Tang Qiuli laughed and said: "Battle, why don't you become my chief of staff? This is just a preliminary plan, and the specific deployment will be determined based on the situation at the time. The northeastern region, especially the Songnen Plain, will eventually

Suitable for large-scale armored group assaults, your armored troops will be the first to attack!"

Battle said seriously: "Brother, as long as you give me enough tanks and armored vehicles to form these troops, there will be no problem. In Kunming, our Armored Forces School can train nearly a thousand qualified soldiers every year. In Dingbian and Guangzhou

The Armored Command Department of the Military Academy also graduates hundreds of graduates every year who are suitable for grassroots command jobs, so manpower is not a problem!"

Tang Qiuli nodded approvingly. With eyes full of love, he looked at his younger brother and said, "That's right. If you are prepared for a rainy day and are fully prepared, I can rest assured. You can go back!"

After Battle left, Tang Qiuli's happy mood lasted for a long time. At first, a teenage wild boy, in seven or eight years, grew into a commander in his own right, which made him feel relieved.

Mei Xue, who came in to change the tea, looked curiously at her husband's spring-breathing smile, and joked: "My brother is gone, you didn't bully him, right?"

Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Xue, time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, eighty-nine years have passed, and Battelle has become a big man. Who would have thought that a wandering wild boy in Sanchahe Town would

Now that I can command the armored troops of an independent division, I feel that I am getting old!"

Mei Xue replied with a smile: "Are you very old?"

Tang Qiuli winked, touched his chin with aftertaste, and said ambiguously: "That's right, he is still very impressive in bed. Someone begged for mercy many times!"

Meixue was so angry that she rushed over to him, pinched his waist fiercely, and said with a blush on her face: "I don't have a formal appearance, and I'm not afraid of the guards outside hearing me!"

Tang Qiuli pretended to have a grimace on his face, touched his wife's black hair lovingly, turned around and shouted: "Special Guard, please come in, Commander Yuan!" Mei Xue was so frightened that she hurriedly let go of her hand.

A rough voice sounded outside the door, "Report to the division commander, Yuan Jinghao, Pingjin Security Command of the Independent Division, report to the division commander!"

Tang Qiuli said gently: "It's Jinghao, come in!"

A major general in military uniform pushed the door open and said, "Commander!" Yuan Jinghao stood at attention and saluted, with an eager light in his eyes. Then, he politely greeted Mei Xue, "Hello, Director Mei!"

Tang Qiuli called Yuan Jinghao to sit down and said, "Jinghao, we haven't seen each other for three or four years, right? It's still the same!" Mei Xue poured a cup of tea for Yuan Jinghao, nodded in greeting, closed the door and went out.

Yuan Jinghao observed Tang Qiuli carefully, suppressed his excitement, and said: "It has been three or four years since I saw the division commander. Ever since I served as the commander of the Henan garrison, you have commanded several field corps.

, fighting abroad, division commander, you have lost weight! There are more white hairs on your head!"

Tang Qiuli waved his hands indifferently and said: "Are you still the same as before? We have been dealing with the Soviets in Outer Mongolia for two months. It is not easy. Jinghao, I called you here today because I have an important task to hand over.

Let’s do it for you!”

Yuan Jinghao stood up suddenly and said loudly: "Commander, if you have any mission, just give the order, Yuan Jinghao will not hesitate to die!"

Tang Qiuli laughed and said: "There is no need to give up, Jinghao, from now on, we will form the North China Field Corps based on the troops of the Pingjin Garrison Command. I have already given them to the Shandong Garrison Command and the Shanxi Garrison Command respectively.

, the Henan Garrison Command issued an order. The three Garrison Commands respectively dispatched

Send out two infantry brigades, plus the eight infantry brigades from your Pingjin Garrison Command, and then assign two artillery brigades, two tank brigades, and an air defense brigade to form the North China Field Corps, with a total strength of 150,000

Above, you serve as the commander, and Liu Feng, the chief of staff of the Pingjin Garrison Command, serves as the chief of staff of the corps."

"The main task of the North China Field Corps is to assume the important task of the independent division mobile corps. That strategic direction is tight, and the North China Field Corps must step up. The future direction should be to transfer to the Northeast battlefield. The formation of the corps will be at the end of March next year.

It has been completed beforehand, Jing Hao, the formation of the North China Field Corps must be carried out secretly, and it can be announced to the outside world that this is a joint military exercise in North China, what do you think?"

After listening to Tang Qiuli's words, Yuan Jinghao's first reaction was that a big battle was going to happen. Otherwise, on the front line of western Liaoning, there were more than 500,000 troops of Deputy Commander Liu's East Command. Recently, Feng Jiwu's Niangziguan Garrison Corps had 30 troops.

More than 10,000 troops also moved to the western Liaoning area one after another.

Yuan Jinghao's voice trembled with excitement and said: "Sir, do you want to attack the Northeast?"

Tang Qiuli nodded, and Yuan Jinghao's eyes were bright, with sparkling flames dancing in his pupils, and he continued: "Sir, Jinghao has a request!"

"Say!" Tang Qiuli said simply.

"Division commander, the newly formed North China Field Corps does not want to serve as a battle reserve. Please ask the division commander for permission. The corps will be mobilized to the front line in western Liaoning and serve as the main attack when fighting the Japs!" Yuan Jinghao looked at Tang Qiuli with pleading eyes.

Tang Qiuli looked at the nervous Yuan Jinghao with a half-smile, and said, "Let's wait until your regiment is formed to discuss this matter. Why, Jinghao, is he going to compete with Commander Feng Jiwu for the main attack mission?"

Yuan Jinghao was a little disappointed and explained: "Commander, Jinghao has absolutely no intention of doing this. I am willing to serve as Commander Feng's deputy, as long as I can fight for it!"

"Okay, I will consider it, Jinghao, the upgrade of local troops to field corps is not just a simple matter of gathering several troops together and changing their numbers. It also involves changes in the command system of the troops and the tactical coordination between the brigades.

, as well as experience in large-scale corps operations, including ground-air, infantry-tank-artillery coordinated operations, etc., your burden is not light!" Tang Qiuli said seriously.

Yuan Jinghao's answer was confident, "Commander, in five months, you will see a field corps that can undertake any combat mission! The combat effectiveness will not be worse than any main field corps!"

Tang Qiuli was also infected by Yuan Jinghao's emotions and said with a smile: "Okay, in five months, I will personally review the North China Field Corps. Don't let me down when the time comes!"

After seeing off Yuan Jinghao, Tang Qiuli's special plane, escorted by a squadron of fighter jets from the Northern Flying Group, took off from Peking Nanyuan Military Airport in the morning and continued to fly to Indochina.

At noon, we landed at Wuhan Airport to refuel. After hearing the news, the local party, government and military officials in Hubei did not dare to neglect and were waiting at the airport early. This man had done great things abroad and had just killed more than fifty people.

Although the deputy chairman of the Wan Su Army Soldier was just passing by, the local people from all walks of life in Wuhan did not dare to take it lightly at all.

In Outer Mongolia, more than 30,000 heads were cut off at one time, and the killing was bloody. This is called ruthlessness. If you neglect it, the official may be unlucky and hit the muzzle of the gun. Just a look,

It’s not like he lost his head, and he definitely couldn’t keep the black gauze hat on his head. Whether he was trying to show his friendship to the landlord or deliberately trying to please others, in line with the principle of being polite to many people and not being offended, all the famous and respectable people in Wuhan came.

Tang Qiuli didn't want to alarm the local military and government officials in Wuhan. However, the special plane needed to be refueled at Wuhan Airport. When Wuhan Airport heard the news, it was frightened and did not dare not inform the Hubei Provincial Party Headquarters, the Provincial Government, the Garrison Headquarters and other military and government offices. Therefore,

That’s why there was such a grand welcome ceremony.

When the special plane was taxiing on the runway, through the porthole, Tang Qiuli saw the airport, which was heavily guarded, with colorful flags fluttering, and crowded with people, and he couldn't help but frown.
