Base System of Bashu Heroes

On the bank of Wolong River, Yu Jishi, who was wading in, saw Liu Tianchu with his face full of smoke. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. In the end, he squeezed Liu Tianchu's hand tightly and let out a long hiss with emotion.

Yu Jishi originally insisted that his 51st brigade consolidate the position, but Liu Tianchu refused because it was a waste of time to redeploy. The 74th Army, which lost nearly half of its troops under the fierce attack of the Maruyama Brigade, was seriously injured, especially

Those who sacrificed their lives were all brave and capable fighting backbones.

The feint attack turned into a defensive position. In desperation, Liu Tianchu had no choice but to leave the Chutian Stick Regiment in the Wushimen position, and then organized troops to encircle the Maruyama Brigade.

Regarding Liu Tianchu's order to shoot all the Japanese troops of the Sixth Division, dead or alive, no Sichuan soldier raised any objections and carried it out happily. The few Japanese prisoners and wounded became hot commodities, and one alive one could be exchanged for a box.

'Big Qianmen'! Just now, the Sichuan soldiers who felt that the killing was not enough, now regretted it, so they had no choice but to smoke a cigarette to enjoy the true meaning of pain and happiness.

In the battle to conquer Dongguling, the Sichuan Army fully demonstrated the advantages of weapons and equipment. The combat power of the armored division shocked the government. Under the instructions of the Chairman, Chen Cheng, as a special envoy, made a special trip to Wushimen to meet Liu Tianchu and negotiate with Xuzhou

Matters concerning the purchase of weapons at the arsenal.

Liu Tianchu, who was busy encircling and suppressing the Maruyama Brigade, learned that Chen Cheng had come to see him in person. He knew that there must be something important, but he did not expect that it was to purchase arms from the Sichuan Army. As early as when the Sichuan Army's change of uniforms was completed, Qian Chuanzi, Scholar, and Dongfang Zhenhua had all asked him

He proposed that he hope to sell arms to foreign countries to support the expenses of the Sichuan Army. Liu Tianchu did not agree and did not do so even when the army was in trouble. The Japanese army was retreating steadily on the anti-Japanese battlefield with inferior weapons, but it sold arms to foreign countries. As a Chinese, how could it help the evildoers?

, so he did not agree, and his intention was waiting for the government to take the initiative to speak.

Unexpectedly, Chen Cheng would come so soon. Also coming with Chen Cheng was Huang Han, the director of the Military Industry Administration. After more than a month of contact, Liu Tianchu's impression of Chen Cheng had also changed greatly. Although Chen Cheng also had the pedantry of a government official, he

He was a patriotic general in terms of resisting Japanese aggression.

Chen Cheng briefly explained the purpose of his visit, hoping that the Sichuan Army could provide rocket launchers and general machine gun production lines for the government. In previous battles, the Japanese were unable to achieve their strategic goals because they lacked artillery support and were unable to destroy the solid fortifications of the Japanese army, and even important fortifications could not be captured for several days.

Knowing Chen Cheng's purpose, Liu Tianchu shook his head helplessly. He knew that providing a production line would not help. With the current national industrial capacity, the rocket launchers and machine guns produced could not meet the specifications, and there would be frequent failures on the battlefield. However, he could not explain this to Chen Cheng. He hesitated.

Liu Tianchu said: "Sir, if the government can provide steel and production raw materials for the Sichuan Army, the Sichuan Army is willing to provide weapons and equipment to the government, and the government only needs to pay the workers."

Chen Cheng seemed a little displeased, thinking that Liu Tianchu was trying to shirk. "We provide the production line and Commander Liu doesn't have to worry about all the follow-up matters. Why do we have to have the Sichuan Army do the production?"

Liu Tianchu casually took off the assault rifle on Ronghua's back beside him. "Sir, Director Huang should be an expert in weapons. As for this assault rifle, can the quality of the steel used and the precision of the parts be produced by the Military Industry Administration?"

Huang Han took the assault rifle, looked at it carefully for a while and then shook his head at Chen Cheng: "Commander Liu is right, the arsenal under the jurisdiction of the Military Industry Administration cannot produce firearms of the same quality with the capabilities of the arsenal."

It seems that Liu Tianchu did not shirk the blame, but told the truth. Chen Cheng was in trouble, and it was difficult for him to make the decision on the matter, so he had to return to Wuhan and ask the chairman of the committee for instructions before making a decision.

After sending Chen Cheng away, Liu Tianchu and Yu Jishi immediately deployed to encircle and suppress the Maruyama Brigade. Xuzhou dispatched more than 30 aircraft to bomb the Maruyama Brigade every day. The artillery regiment and tank company, with the cooperation of the infantry, quickly cleared away the Maruyama Brigade.

In the outer position, Maruyama Masao finally led the remaining troops to huddle in a mountain depression at Wushimen, resisting stubbornly.

Liu Tianchu's goal has been achieved. His mission this time is to stop the Japanese Second Army from Huangchuan. Xinyang, Maruyama Brigade has been severely weakened, and it is useless to continue to waste it. Liu Tianchu decided to withdraw to Huangchuan. Yu Jishi thought a lot about Liu Tianchu's approach.

The explanation is puzzling: "The Maruyama Brigade is at the end of its strength, why did Commander Liu give up this easy achievement?"

Liu Tianchu smiled bitterly and joked: "The more credit I get, the less trustworthy the committee will be about me. A no-name will always be a no-name. The credit should be given to your direct descendants."

Yu Jishi nodded in appreciation for Liu Tianchu's straightforwardness. He had heard that the Military Commission had grudges against Liu Tianchu's troops in the Sichuan Army, but he couldn't understand why Liu Tianchu was so generous. It is said that the final credit for Zhengzhou's defeat of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army was given to Ye Ge.

Tang Enbo, why did he do this?

"The Sichuan Army is more than just a miscellaneous force. In the eyes of the committee members, the Yunnan Army, Guangxi Army, Shanxi-Sui Army, and Northeastern Army are all miscellaneous. Why doesn't Liu Junzhang want to take credit? Nor ask for a reward?"

Liu Tianchu laughed loudly: "Our Sichuan Army went out to Sichuan to fight the war to protect our country. Frankly speaking, I don't bother to take credit. Doesn't Commander Yu know that? No matter it is the Yunnan Army, the Guangxi Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army, or the Northeast Army, only our Sichuan Army is the second

The Thirteenth Group Army is a monolithic unit, sharing life and death. Each division commander embraces the idea of ​​sharing glory and disgrace. They look at each other with every breath, and share pain and itch. They go through fire and water together - if they win, they will raise a glass of wine to give credit, and if they lose, they will die with all their strength.

With the belief of rescuing each other. And the government, whether direct lineage or miscellaneous, will blame each other when losing, and seek to take a share of the pie when winning. Such extravagant and extravagant officialdom habits will further erode the army, and the nation is almost in danger of annihilation."

Yu Jishi nodded repeatedly: "Commander Liu's words are golden words. It's okay to share them with me, but please don't let them reach the ears of the committee members."

Liu Tianchu frowned and said: "To be honest, I am going to report all the shortcomings of the army in front of the commissioners. If the government continues like this, the country will not have a country with its generals, and the army will not have an army."

Yu Ji sighed: "Three feet of ice is not as cold as one day. In fact, the committee understands better than us. If you report it, it will not help, but will make the committee disgusted. In the current troubled times, there is no spare time to comprehensively rectify the appearance of the army, so we will ** the army

Generally speaking, if you are good at attacking, the enemy will not know where you are defending; if you are good at defending, the enemy will not know where you are attacking. The art of war and tactics have been taught very thoroughly since ancient times, but it is not easy for us. Generally speaking, in our troops, those who can attack start to defend.

Since a defensive strategy is adopted, each department shows its loyalty and avoids responsibility, and its strategic offensive is even more impossible. If you cannot attack and defend, it will be even more difficult to prevent the enemy from knowing what to attack. Therefore, if you cannot attack and defend, you must use multiple preparations.

The result of being on the defensive is "If you prepare for the front, you will be few at the back; if you are prepared for the rear, you will be few for the front; if you are prepared for the left, you will be few for the right; if you are prepared for the right, you will be few for the left; if you are not prepared for everything, you will be few for everything. This is what is called being prepared with too much strength. In

Under the situation of having multiple reserves and divided forces, it is difficult to meet the conditions of the five offensives and to be able to take the offensive tactically? It is difficult to take the defensive strategically and to take the offensive tactically. There is no way to go without falling into passivity. This is not true.

It is self-evident. Passivity is a taboo for military strategists. Every division commander knows it well but cannot escape his ultimate fate. Occasionally, he can seize good opportunities and seize the initiative, resulting in several local victories, but these are only occasional exceptions.

That's all. As for the Yangtze River line, because we have no navy, the Yangtze River is not our "natural moat". Instead, it is used by the enemy, which restrains a large number of our river defense troops.

Under bombardment, it is particularly difficult to defend. This is a major disadvantage shared by the Battle of Wuhan and the Battle of Songhu, but the government cannot avoid it."

Listening to Yu Jishi's explanation, Liu Tianchu nodded repeatedly. Yu Jishi was a famous general directly from the Zhongyang Army. He had experienced hundreds of battles. He analyzed the current situation very thoroughly and saw clearly the various shortcomings within the army. At this moment, Liu Tianchu completely woke up.

It is not that the generals of the Communist Party of China are incompetent, but that various reasons have limited the ability of the generals in various ministries. I have always wondered why the Communist Party of China, which controls the human resources of the country, suffered a complete defeat in the civil war. It is terrible that the government failed due to corruption.

Yu Jishi, who was somewhat emotional, still said: "In the battle between Dongguling and Wushimen, your department only had one division, and the Maruyama brigade had the same strength as you, but the Maruyama brigade had no power to fight back. And the troops we mobilized at any time

In the battle, there were several times more troops than the enemy. In the Wuhan battle, the troops in the ninth theater alone had more than 70 divisions, while the enemy's troops only used a total of seven divisions. This is why they can attack many with fewer troops.

, in addition to the equipment relationship, it is because of superior quality. Looking at ourselves on the other hand, although there are many troops, the quantitative advantage is always offset by the qualitative disadvantage. Each unit wastes food and salary in vain and has no fighting spirit. The Battle of Dongguling

It made me fully realize the wise saying of "Soldiers should be fine, not numerous." In this battle, Wang Lingji's Army and the 30th Army, Sun Du's and Zhang Chong's armies were all of poor quality and collapsed as soon as they came into contact, while the Yunnan Army

The Luhan Division of the Army broke up without contact and only heard the sound of enemy planes - so that even the troops with better quality were unable to complete the mission, resulting in a total failure. Therefore, quality is the lifeblood of the army, and it is useless to have too much.

, it is better to be more precise with less quantity, so that you can exert your combat power on the battlefield."
