To be honest, Xu Shijiu is not afraid of death. Dialectics has fully proved that there is birth and death, and there is birth and death. Anyone will eventually move towards the inevitable final destination of death. Whether it is a civilian or a prominent emperor and general, it will eventually disappear.

So Xu Shijiu is not afraid of death, or he has actually made more than ten more money, because under normal circumstances, he may die on the spot when he was shot in the head, but he lived for thirteen years with bullets in his head, and he had already made money.

However, Xu Shijiu doesn't want to leave regrets for himself

Of course, Xu Shijiu also hopes that the fellow villagers in Chizhou can get rid of the slavery of the little Japanese earlier and live a proud life earlier.

"Captain, do you really want to fight against Chizhou?" Li Zihan also said.

"Really fight." Xu Shijiu said, "After the battle of Changheng, the UR division of the little Japanese division fought and then participated in the battle of Liugui. It has not been rested for more than six months. Now it is exhausted. Moreover, after two consecutive major battles, the losses of their personnel and equipment cannot be replenished so quickly, so we still have a great opportunity, and more importantly..."

Xu Shijiu stopped here. When Gao Shenxing waited, Li Zihan's eyes fell on his face, and then continued: "More importantly, if we can annihilate the UR division of the Japanese in southern Anhui, it will greatly damage the morale of the Japanese, and the battlefield in central China may also turn to a counterattack."

Gao Shenxing said: "Old Xu, since you have decided to attack Chizhou, we will of course fully support it. However, in terms of force, our 19th Detachment has less than 20,000 people. Even if the Japanese UR Division has been consumed after two consecutive major battles, its military strength may not be less than 10,000 people. Therefore, we do not have much advantage in terms of force. Therefore, if possible, I think we should still strive for the support of the 7th Division of the New Fourth Army.

"The Seventh Division of the New Fourth Army?" Xu Shijiu hesitated.

Since the last shot and killed Liu Chang, the relationship between Xu Shijiu and the Communist Party has taken a sharp turn, and it has once reached a point of tension. Later, with the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China correcting the purity movement initiated by Kang Sheng, the relationship between Xu Shijiu and the Communist Party has eased.

However, until now, the relationship between the two parties has not yet recovered.

Therefore, Xu Shijiu was unsure about joining forces with the New Fourth Army to fight against Chizhou.

Gao Shenxing smiled and said, "Old Xu, you probably don't know, Awen is back."

"Oh, Awen is back?" Xu Shijiu felt a little moved. This was good news.

Li Zihan on the side said, "So what if Awen is back? He is not the commander of the 7th Division."

Gao Shenxing glared at Li Zihan and said with some displeasure: "Awen is indeed only the deputy commander of the Seventh Division of the New Fourth Army, but there is news that Lao He will be transferred soon. Awen came to take Lao He's position. After all, the 7th Division was the old foundation of the Anhui Southern Detachment before, and Awen can be regarded as the old commander of this unit."

Seeing that Xu Shijiu was a little moved, Li Zihan was not willing to let it go and said anxiously: "Captain, the New Fourth Army only has a few broken guns, and there are only a few more people. I am afraid it will not be of great use. It is recommended that you work together with the Second Army."

"The Army?" Xu Shijiu said.

Li Zihan nodded and said, "Captain, you probably don't know yet. The Army is no longer the same as before. The 75th Division and the 10th National Peak have been completely renewed. The 40th Division has been replaced with all American equipment and an American howitzer regiment."

"No matter how good the equipment is, it depends on whoever uses it." Gao Shenxing sneered, "In the hands of the Central Army, even the most exquisite American equipment is, it is probably not much better than the fire stick."

"What do you mean by Lao Gao?" Li Zihan said, "Why would you let your Seventh Division fight with our First Army? Is it true that the Seventh Division destroyed the 25th Army, or the First Army destroyed your Second Army?"

"If you fight, you're afraid you won't be able to do it?" Gao Shenxing said coldly, "But, Li Zihan, I can tell you responsibly that the one who lost in the end must be your army and the American equipment that your army had just changed into, and in the end it must be our Seventh Division."

Gao Shenxing and Li Zihan would not have thought that today's quarrel would become a cruel fact in a few years.

In the second phase of the Liberation War, Chiang Kai-shek concentrated the most elite American armed forces to launch a key attack on the Shandong Liberated Area and Yan'an. The 25th Division, based on the reorganization of Huang Baitao's 25th Army, inserted straight into the Shandong Liberated Area like a sharp knife.

The 13th Column of Dongye was in Nanma, Linqu lost consecutive battles and lost the Yimeng Mountain Liberated Area, Jiaodong and Yantai, resulting in the complete cut-off of the Northeast and Shandong. At least in Shandong, Chiang Kai-shek could be said to have fully realized his tactical intentions, and thus awarded Huang Baitao's highest honor to the "First Class Treasure Medal".

Even Su Yu, who is the best at commanding large corps battles among all the senior generals of the People's Liberation Army, lamented that in one-on-one attack, position and defense battle, no column of the dozen columns in the East Field Army could defeat Huang Baitao's reorganized division.

At that time, Di Pei, who was commanding by Shu Tongwen, was in the 14th Column of the East Field Army, while Li Zihan had already become the commander of the 40th Brigade. Di Pei and the 40th Brigade launched a decisive battle in the Yimeng Mountains. The 40th Brigade relied on its sharp American equipment and had an extremely sharp offensive. Di Pei's defense line was continuously broken through. Shu Tongwen had no choice but to order to give up the defensive position and withdraw from the battle. The independent brigade of Gao Shenxing was ordered to cut off the rear and was almost wiped out by Li Zihan's 40th Brigade.

But just a year later, Dipei avenged an arrow at Nianzhuang

In the Battle of Nianzhuang, the 14th Column of Dongye took charge of the main attack on Huang Baitao's 7th Corps. Shu Tongwen Dipei was the first to break into Nianzhuang's position. Li Mu's reconnaissance company was more like a sharp knife that penetrated Huang Baitao's corps headquarters. Huang Baitao was also shot dead by Li Mu on the way to break through the siege. However, Gao Shenxing escaped by mistake and finally fled to Taiwan.

During the Huaihai Battle, the Kuomintang called it the Battle of Xuwa. Chiang Kai-shek mobilized a total of 800,000 Central Army to launch a strategic decisive battle with the Central China Field Army and the UU10,000 People's Liberation Army of the East China Field Army, which was related to the final ownership of the rule of mainland China.

This is a classic battle that can be recorded in the history of the world's military

UU Wan PLA almost wiped out the most elite Kuomintang Central Army with its relatively disadvantaged forces and absolutely disadvantaged equipment. From a military perspective alone, this is simply impossible.

The failure of the Huaihai Campaign is by no means the weak fighting spirit of the Central Army

In fact, the RU Wan Central Army who participated in the Huaihai Campaign were all veterans of a hundred battles fought from the eight years of war. Each of them had bloody battles with the Japanese invaders on the battlefield, and each had a steely will. Under the same conditions, their combat effectiveness was only stronger than that of the People's Liberation Army.

The failure of the Huaihai Campaign is not the senior generals of the Central Army who do not know how to command and do not know how to fight.

In fact, Du Yuming, commander-in-chief of Xuzhou's "Suppression Chief", is definitely a rare tiger general. Compared with Su Yu in the Communist Party, Lin Biao is not inferior at all. Under Du Yuming, there are even powerful generals like Huang Baitao, Qiu Qingquan and Huang Wei, which can be said to be a gathering of generals.

At the command level, Chiang Kai-shek was not on the same level as Mao Zedong, but in the Huaihai Battle, Chiang Kai-shek gave Yu Mingjue absolute trust and overcame his previous shortcomings, without any of Yu Mingjue's front-line command.

But even so, the Kuomintang still lost the Huaihai Battle and then lost the entire continent.

In fact, the main reason why the Kuomintang lost the Huaihai Campaign was that it lost the logistics

Although the RUKNOM troops are elite, they are all American equipment, but while American equipment has strong firepower output, they must also have strong logistical support. If there is no strong logistical support, the more American equipment, the greater the trouble.

After the People's Liberation Army destroyed several major railways and highways on the Xuzhou battlefield, the logistics supplies of the elite Kuomintang troops immediately fell into trouble.

On the other hand, the People's Liberation Army needed to support the UU Wan army's operations, and the materials needed every day were also huge. However, the People's Liberation Army had the support of tens of millions of people in the Central Plains, and millions of people braved the bombing of national army planes day and night, sacrificing their lives to transport materials to the front line, ensuring the combat needs of UU Wan army. Therefore, Chen Yi said that the victory of the Huaihai Battle was launched by the people in the Liberated Area of ​​the Central Plains with a unicycle.

Why did the people in the Central Plains help the People's Liberation Army instead of the National Army? Because the Kuomintang had lost the people's hearts in the eight years of the War of Resistance.

The people of North China, Northeast China, and Central Plains were slaves who were destroyed for eight years. During these eight years, they only saw the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army fighting bloody battles with the Japanese with their inferior equipment. However, the Kuomintang troops left behind the enemy surrendered to the Wang Puppet Government and became puppet troops.
