Mobilizing Before the Battle!
Rehe Territory!
Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan each led a group of elites and rushed to Chengde. They gathered on the training ground and waited for Zhang Xuemin's lecture!
After all, this was Zhang Xuemin's first time sending troops since he became the Commander-in-Chief of the Three Eastern Provinces. Although it was a drill with the 57th Brigade, Zhang Xuemin still insisted on giving a lecture and going through the formalities!
"Brothers, do you know me? I am Zhang Xuemin, the new commander of the security forces in the three eastern provinces, and the general of the 3rd and 4th divisions. In other words, your two divisions are my personal guards and trump cards, and you are the elites that were transferred from the 3rd and 4th divisions. If you can't defeat the 57th Brigade, you will lose face, not only you, but also me!
We are all from the younger generation. Many of the officers in the 3rd and 4th Corps graduated from the Army Military Academy and Baoding Military Academy. You said that a bunch of people who went to school couldn't defeat a bunch of old-timers from the Green Forest Academy. What school did you go to? How will your classmates think of you…"
Zhang Xuemin stood in the middle of the field and shouted through the loudspeaker!
In the front corner, Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan were whispering to each other!
"Brother, why do you think the commander-in-chief wants to hold such a drill?”
"Who knows? Although the commander-in-chief looks young, no one can guess what he is thinking. You saw how decisive he was when he killed Yang Yuting and Chang Yinhuai that day.”
"If he didn't kill Yang Yuting, we wouldn't have been the deputy commanders!”
"I heard that the commander-in-chief directly shot and killed seven guards of Kenjiro, the Consul General of Dongyang Country in China, in Fengtian Marshal's Mansion this morning. The Consul General was so scared that he peed his pants. If someone hadn't stopped him, he would have been killed by the commander-in-chief on the spot.”
"Yeah, when have we Northeasterners ever been tough in front of the Japanese? I really don't know where the commander-in-chief gets his confidence from.”
"That's why I feel that even though the drill this time is with Tang Yulin's 57th Brigade, the intention is really not Tang Yulin!”
"You mean…the purpose of the commander-in-chief holding this exercise is to show off to the Japanese? Let them see the combat strength of our Feng army!”
"That's right!"
"That's possible, but no matter what, we have to fight this battle well. Otherwise, not only will we lose face, but we'll also lose face for the commander-in-chief!”
……
"What are you two whispering about?"
Zhang Xuemin's lecture on the drill ground had already ended. In just a few minutes, the two elite groups were screaming and shouting. They wanted to charge forward with their guns. They then threw the megaphone on the ground and rushed towards Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan!
Seeing Zhang Xuemin walk over, Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan immediately straightened their backs and saluted!
"Commander-in-chief, we are discussing tactics!”
Jiang Dengxuan immediately glanced at him in surprise. He thought to himself that this devil Guo didn't even blush when he lied!
" Alright, stop pretending. You're still discussing tactics…" Zhang Xuemin waved his hand and said casually," It's only been a few days since I promoted you to vice generals. It's impossible to say how much the 3rd and 4th divisions have improved. However, the 3rd and 4th divisions are the strongest in our army. The ones I asked you to transfer are the elites. I only have one request for this exercise. No matter what method you use, you must win. If you lose, you must win. Don't blame me, Zhang Xuemin, for turning against you!”
Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan immediately trembled in fear and said in a deep voice,""Yes, sir!"
……
At the same time, Tang Yulin's side was also mobilizing before the battle!
His goal was very simple. He would not reduce the army if he could!
"Our 57th Brigade has more than 30,000 people. In terms of military strength, we are twice as strong as Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan's two elite regiments. If we still lose the battle like this, we will really be trash and deserve to be disbanded. At that time, I will let all of you bastards go back to the countryside to farm.”
"I heard you clearly!"
"We can't let the commander-in-chief think that we, the veterans of the Feng army, are all useless. If that happens, they will really think that we are all burdens. We must show off the might of the 57th Brigade!”
"Yes, show us the might of the 57th Brigade!”
"Yes, show us the might of the 57th Brigade!”
……
In terms of waving flags and shouting, no one could compare to these soldiers. Tang Yulin's 57th Brigade had a huge momentum. If one did not know, one would think that it was an army with powerful combat strength!
"Uncle Tang, is the pre-war mobilization done? Let's start!"
Zhang Xuemin raised the loudspeaker and shouted!
A hint of gloom flashed across Tang Yulin's eyes. He chuckled and said,"Alright, alright, I've made the commander-in-chief anxious. Let's start now!”
The 57th Brigade was personally led by Tang Yulin, while the two elite regiments of the 3rd and 4th Regiment were led by Guo Songlin and Jiang Dengxuan respectively. The exercise location was set at the Horn Mountain in the outskirts of Chengde!
Each side had a temporary command center dedicated to the exercise. As long as they occupied the other side's command center, they would win!
