The third chapter is clever (2)
"Luozezhou first launched an attack on Nanchong and provoked the war. Li Jiayu and Yang Sen then echoed that Liu Wenhui had three brigades in Nanchong, Chen Mingqian, Huang Xixuan, and Lin Yiru; there were two divisions in Suining area, Lin Yungen and Chen Guangzao. Once Nanchong started, one of these two divisions would definitely go to reinforce," Zhuang Jihua paused and said: "Guangting, let's do a sand table deduction."
"Okay," Du Yuming said calmly: "Where do you choose?"
"Liu Xiang." Zhuang Jihua's two words of steady protrusion.
At the beginning of the deduction, Zhuang Jihua adjusted his deployment and added a division to Nanchong. The entire army was divided into three combat groups in the north and southwest, north and south. The main force was placed on the Jiangjin line on the west road. The north road joined forces with Yang Liluo to attack Nanchong. A division was placed on the south line, responsible for attacking Luzhou, an important town in southern Sichuan.
Du Yuming divided the entire army into four groups, the Chengdu Group was responsible for monitoring Deng Tian, and the Jiangjin Yongchuan Front concentrated the main divisions, a total of six brigades, five brigades were placed in Tongnan, and three brigades were placed in Luzhou.
The war first began in the direction of Nanchong, and Luo Zezhou began to launch, but his strength was too weak and he was quickly repelled. Then Li Jiayu and Yang Sen entered the battle, but the three brigades in Nanchong repelled the attacks of the three units after receiving the support of a brigade in Suining. Then Zhuang Jihua took action in Nanchong, Jiangjin and Tongnan at the same time. Du Yuming carried out a defensive move in Jiangjin's main battlefield and stayed in Nanchong for a brigade to defend, but the main force launched a counterattack in Tongnan. Zhuang Jihua then turned off to defend in Tongnan, forming a line of defense at Zhonghe line in Tongnan.
, and then dispatched troops from Chongqing to reinforce Jiangjin, hoping to break through Jiangjin, and launched an attack in Nanchong at the same time. Due to the huge gap in force, Nanchong quickly conquered and then went straight out of Suining. He threatened the enemy's retreat in Tongnan. Du Yuming responded quickly and immediately retreated on the whole line, abandoned Tongnan and Jiangjin, retreated to the Weiyuan line of Rongchang, Bishan, Leshan, and drew a reinforcement line from the surveillance troops in Chengdu. After occupying Neijiang, Zhuang Jihua divided his troops into two groups, continued to pursue and approached Rongchang. The other group grabbed the troops and turned south to surround Luzhou.
"Do you dare to divide the troops into two groups?" Du Yuming was very dissatisfied. He gathered nearly 80,000 Liu Wenhui's main force in Rongchang. Even if Zhuang Jihua chased him, there were only more than 60,000 people.
"Why don't you dare?" Zhuang Jihua frowned and said, "More than 10,000 people surrounded by me in Luzhou City, and I have nearly 40,000 people liberated from the Nanchong direction to serve as reinforcements. There are more than 60,000 people on the front line."
"But you can't wait for reinforcements from Nanchong at all," Du Yuming retorted dissatisfiedly. More than 20,000 people fought against 70,000. Judging from the experience of the Sichuan Army's civil war field, it would be good to be able to block a day: "Besides, the troops that retreated from Nanchong can still resist along the way and delay their attack."
"Then I will detour Jianyang and attack Longquanyi and threaten Chengdu." Zhuang Jihua said calmly: "Besides, you are talking about your playing style, not Liu Wenhui's. With Liu Wenhui's habits, he cannot make a desperate move. He cannot let go of Chengdu, nor can he give up Luzhou. In fact, the best way to play is to attract the enemy with the lonely city of Luzhou. Give Chengdu to Tian Songyao, the entire army attacked, annihilated Liu Xiang's main force on the front line of Roewe, forcing Yang and Li Luo's three troops to launch a war, and then take advantage of the victory to head to Chongqing, lift the siege of Luzhou by surrounding Wei and saving Zhao, and then set up an ambush on the way to rescue Chongqing. In this way, Liu Xiang's troops may go to 10 times and six or seven times. Liu Xiang had no choice but to announce his quit, and the principal could only admit the fait accompli."
"Liu Xiang will never worry. Because he still has Tian Songyao," Zhuang Jihua was very depressed. He didn't know whether Tian Songyao and Deng Xihou could withstand the temptation: "Liu Wenhui's failure on the front line may trigger the greed of the two. They are likely to take action in Chengdu to grab territory, so Liu Wenhui will be attacked from all sides."
"At this time, Liu Wenhui can make peace with Liu Xiang." Tang Zong interrupted: "They are uncles and nephews. Liu Wenhui's main force is on Liu Xiang, and Liu Xiang is unwilling to bear this pressure. I guess he will make peace with Liu Wenhui and let Liu Wenhui go back to deal with Tian Songyao and Deng Xihou."
"Yes, Naijian is right," Zhuang Jihua took over the topic: "Liu Xiang will not let Deng Xihou and Tian Songyao watch the fun. He wants to bring them all in and consume them together. Only after the war can he have the absolute strength to control the situation in Sichuan."
"So, our greatest danger is when Liu Wenhui's main force gathered in the Weiyuan area of Rongchang after conquering Nanchong." Li Zhilong said.
"Oh, it depends on Brother Chao." Zhuang Jihua sighed. All the mice in Sichuan were slid and forced him to take risks. The hope was placed on Zeng Kuoqing, hoping to control Tian Songyao and Deng Xihou.
In early September, Luo Zezhou began to attack Nanchong, and fought with Chen Mingqian's troops for a day in Lijiadu. Without any progress, Luo Zezhou retreated immediately, and then Sichuan became lively.
According to the rules of the Republic of China, a telegram must be issued to fight such a war. Luo Zezhou first issued a telegram to accuse Liu Wenhui of provoking the war. He repeatedly endured it and had to fight back. He asked the Central Military Commission and Sichuan Aftermath Supervision (Liu Xiang) to stop it clearly; Liu Wenhui then sent a telegram to the National Government and all sectors of Sichuan to angrily denounce Luo Zezhou's lies, saying that he would cause trouble in arbitrarily regardless of the lives of the people. At the same time, he also told the abnormal movements of Li Jiayu and Yang Sen's troops, and the 21st troops of Jiangjin Yongchuan Front Area.
They gathered together to launch an attack on him; compared with Liu Wenhui's grievances, Liu Xiang was much more relaxed. He did not come forward directly, but his subordinate Tang Shizun led more than 90 generals to telegraph all walks of life in Sichuan, proposed the outline of governing Sichuan, counting the disasters brought to the people by the Sichuan chaos since the 1911, proposed to eliminate the defense zone system, rebuild the Sichuan government, reduce the number of troops, etc., a total of 16 items; with the power issued by Tang Shizun, the situation of Sichuan departments besieging Liu Wenhui was officially formed.
But the power was not over yet, and people from all walks of life in Sichuan joined in. Faced with the war, all walks of life in Sichuan unanimously called for peace. Chengdu and Chongqing celebrities called for Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui to stop the war. At the same time, they asked the Central Committee to send personnel to reconcile the Sichuan Bureau to quell the war. Chiang Kai-shek on the front line of the Communist Suppression of the Communist Party of Nanchang also sent a telephone to demand that the Sichuan army restrain each other, and ordered Zeng to expand his feelings in Chengdu and Zhuang Jihua to regulate the various departments in Chongqing. Of course, all these were useless. The actors had already appeared and the drama had begun.
After the power was over, the war officially began. Yang Sen and Li Jiayu joined the battle group, and Liu Cunhou from Guishuda County also sent two brigades to the Nanchong front line. He attacked Nanchong together with Xu Yaoqing, Meng Haoran's brigade and Zhou Shaoxuan from Liu Xiang's troops.
At the same time, the troops of Wang Zanxu, who was under Liu Xiang's army, launched an attack in the direction of Tongnan, intending to detour the rear of Nanchong; in the direction of Yongchuan, Jiangjin, Pan Wenhua commanded two divisions and five other brigades to launch an attack on the other two brigades of Zhang Qingping's army, which was under Liu Wenhui's army.
Facing the siege, Liu Wenhui was not afraid. He led the main force to Jiangjin Yongchuan with Zhang Qingping and Xia Shouxun to face Pan Wenhua and Tang Shizun, and asked Chen Guangzao to lead Lin Yungen to defend Nanchong against Yang Liluo and Liu Xiang and Liu Cunhou.
The troops of Pan Wenhua in the middle line fought fiercely with Peng Zangfu, Deng Guozhang and Xu Tingxiu, who were stationed in Yongchuan, and Tang Shizun and Zhang Qingping fought fiercely at Sifang Mountain in Jiangjin. Both sides were killed and injured. The battle was in a stalemate.
The most unfavorable situation for Liu Wenhui was the Nanchong area. Liu Xiang, Yang Sen, Li Jiayu and Liu Cunhou siege from three sides, especially Yang Sen and Li Jiayu, with fierce offensives, breaking through the Baima Mountain defense line and approaching the Nanchong city wall.
Liu Wenhui was extremely worried about the situation in Nanchong, and hesitated to give up or increase troops. Zeng Kuoqing hurried to "adjust". After some greetings, Zeng Kuoqing directly asked Liu Wenhui to make concessions.
"Chairman Liu, Chairman Liu, the Chairman Ming ordered me to adjust, and my brothers had to do it in a difficult situation. I talked with Yang Zihui and other representatives. They only had six counties in the North and then stopped attacking." Zeng Kuoqing said in a dilemma: "To be honest, Chairman Liu, their request was a bit too much, but I also thought about the Chairman in private. Being attacked on the enemy on three sides is a taboo of military strategists. Why not give in temporarily and relieve the pressure, at least slacking off their offensive intentions, and then repair the unity of the Baoding Group, and then Xu Tu will raise it again."
Liu Wenhui thought about it over and over again, feeling that although Zeng Guangxiang had bad intentions, his suggestions were still feasible. The front line is too long and the troops are scattered, and Liu Xiang's offensive on the front line of Jiangjin, Yongchuan was becoming more and more fierce. He had to concentrate on his efforts to deal with it.
"I can give up the North Road, but can you guarantee that Yang Zihui and the others will abide by their faith?" Liu Wenhui asked slowly.
"No," Zeng Kuoqing shook his head without hesitation. Liu Wenhui's face changed and he was about to get angry. Zeng Kuoqing continued without panic: "But you can divide and disintegrate them."
"How can we disintegrate them?" Liu Wenhui asked with a frown.
"The key is in Nanchong, Li Jiayu, Luo Zezhou, and Yang Sen all want this rich land. You can," Zeng Kuoqing looked around. Liu Wenhui waved his hand to signal the people on both sides to retreat. After everyone left, Zeng Kuoqing whispered: "Just give Nanchong Xichong to Li Jiayu, Suining Shehong to Luo Zezhou, and Yingshan to Yang Sen. Liu Wenhui looked at Zeng Kuoqing, and his eyes gradually became brighter. Two peaches killed three soldiers, with the most troops and the most powerful Yang Sen only got one Yingkou, which would inevitably cause Yang Sen's dissatisfaction. Li Jiayu and Luo Zezhou dreamed of wanting a piece of land. Since they were eaten, how could they spit it out again? There would inevitably be conflicts between the three of them, and the North's attack would ease.
In Nanchong City, Chen Guangzao received a clear order from Liu Wenhui to give up Nanchong Suining, but he must let Li Jiayu capture Nanchong. Chen Guangzao was puzzled and asked Liu Wenhui why? Liu Wenhui did not explain, but made him strictly enforce it and ensure success.
So the blocking in front of Li Jiayu became very weak, but Yang Sen was attacked by Chen Guangzao fiercely, while Luo Zezhou suddenly turned around and launched an attack on Suining.
Li Jiayu rushed forward, and the vanguard succeeded one after another, occupied the White Tower, and then crossed the Jialing River. He encountered almost no decent resistance along the way.
"Teacher, isn't it right? Why did Chen Guangzao suddenly stop fighting?" Chief of Staff Li Fenghe ran over to ask with concern.
"There is nothing wrong. Dao Ren Liu is leaving." Li Jiayu, who received the telegram from Zhuang Jihua, said indifferently: "Liu Fucheng beaten up fiercely in Yongchuan, Jiangjin. Dao Ren Liu wants to transfer the wrong place here and there. Hurry up and go to the city quickly, and don't let anyone take the lead."
"Who came from there?" Li Fenghe suddenly realized.
Li Jiayu nodded: "You must hurry up and speed up crossing the river. The troops entered the city overnight. On October 16, Li Jiayu rushed into Nanchong before Yang Sen and Xu Shaoqing, and immediately appointed Chief of Staff Li Fenghe as the county magistrate and garrison commander of Nanchong.
On the 18th, Luo Zezhou conquered Suining and then proclaimed himself the county magistrate of Suining. Li Jiayu pursued Liu Wenhui and retreated to capture Xichong.
Yang Sen used a partial army to occupy the Yingshan Mountain that Liu Wenhui had already given up. The matter was planned very well, but there were still some errors in executing it. Xu Shaoqing snatched She Hong.
The gunshots in the north were calmed down. Yang Sen calculated that he had not taken anything. This not only made him feel unwilling to accept it, but his subordinates also complained, but Yang Sen couldn't just ask Li Jiayu to give up Nanchong, so he complained depressedly to Zhuang Jihua's representative Li Dongzhu. Li Dongzhu gave him a telegram soon. Yang Sen frowned and thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Later, at the combat meeting held in Suining, Yang Sen tactfully proposed that Li Jiayu give away taxes in Nanchong as compensation, but before Li Jiayu could answer, his subordinates refused to agree, so Yang Sen's subordinate Bai Ju and others jumped up to refute. Luo Zezhou tried to adjust, but unexpectedly, the two subordinates immediately pointed the finger at him and demanded that Suining's finance and taxation be divided equally. The combat meeting could not be held anymore, and the three generals clamored and refused to give in. Yang Sen was angry and the troops stopped in Suining and did not leave. He did not move, and Luo Zezhou and Li Jiayu did not dare to move. Li Jiayu simply transferred two brigades from the front line to Nanchong, leaving only the weakest third brigades to pretend on the front line.
This made Xu Shaoqing very anxious. On the front line of Tongnan, Xia Shouxun's offensive was very fierce. Wang Zanxu retreated step by step and asked Liu Xiang for help. Liu Xiang sent Xu Shaoqing's troops to attack Tongnan and seize Xia Shouxun's retreat. But now these three people are not fighting anymore. Of course, Liu Cunhou will not fight again, and he did not get any benefits. Xu Shaoqing had no choice but to report to Liu Xiang truthfully. Liu Xiang is worthy of being a master in regulating conflicts. He immediately telegraphed Yang Sen, willing to give up Shi Hong, and Tongnan will also return to Yang Sen in the future. Please send troops to Tongnan immediately.
Yang Sen was a little moved after receiving the telegram, but he sent troops like this, and it was difficult for Zhuang Jihua to explain. Zhuang Jihua clearly told him in the telegram that he would stop advancing after conquering Suining and watch the two Lius fight. However, Liu Xiang's gifts were not light, and the two counties were all.
