    Probably, Liu Chenglin felt that his words were still unable to convince the brigade commander who was fighting smoothly. He added a few more words, "Brigadier Commander, if you refuse to accept my opinion, then I will have to fulfill my duty as chief of staff and take this opportunity."  Please report the matter to the division commander and ask the division commander to make a decision. Before reporting to the division commander, please order the three attacking regiments to postpone the attack and wait for the division commander's order! "

    Liu Hongzhang saw that Liu Chenglin's face was red, and he was obviously serious about it. He laughed in his heart and said, "You must be serious, I can't pull you back with eight horses. I'm afraid you won't be able to convince me, so I pulled out the teacher. Come on, don't tease him!"

    Liu Hongzhang put away his smile and said seriously: "Cheng Lin, let me ask you, whether the speed of our brigade's pursuit, the results of annihilating the enemy, and the current position have been reported to the division commander. This matter,  You handled it yourself, right?"

    Liu Chenglin didn¡¯t understand what Liu Hongzhang meant, but he personally reported these matters to the division commander. As the chief of staff, this was his responsibility. What did the brigade commander mean by asking this?  He nodded somewhat blankly.  .

    Seeing Liu Chenglin admitting it, Liu Hongzhang felt a little proud and continued to ask: "Chenglin, you said that our brigade pursued so fast that it even pursued the Soviet army in depth, and was in a position where the army was alone and deep. Didn't the division commander know?"

    Liu Chenglin had some second thoughts and felt that Liu Hongzhang was trying to set a trap for him, but he still answered honestly: "Yes, of course the division commander knows. Every day, I am responsible for reporting the position of our brigade several times."  At the teacher¡¯s fingertips!¡±

    Liu Hongzhang slapped his thigh and shouted: "Isn't this the end, Cheng Lin? Even the division commander knew that our brigade had already penetrated into the belly of the retreating Soviet left-wing troops, so why didn't he order us to let go?"  Slow down or stop pursuing in depth?¡±

    Liu Chenglin fully understood and said involuntarily: "Brigadier Commander, are you saying that the division commander knew that we were pursuing so fast and that we were pursuing so deep into the depths of the Soviet army, but did not stop him? Did he think that we would not be in danger?"

    "Smart!" Liu Hongzhang stretched out his thumb, praised Liu Chenglin, and then said: "You are absolutely right. Not only us, but also the other four brigades pursuing us must report their positions to the division commander at any time.  , and the speed of pursuit, this is the requirement of the division commander!"

    "Don't the division commander know that the Second Brigade on our right wing is dozens of kilometers away from us? He also knows that. However, the division commander has identified one thing. The Soviet Outer Mongolia Front Army is eager to retreat and will not entangle with us.  , Cheng Lin, you see, just on our right wing, less than 60 kilometers away, is the main force of the Soviet army. There are hundreds of thousands of people. It takes us a moment to surround us. But, why didn't the Soviet army?  Do this?"

    Liu Chenglin was a little embarrassed and said, "Didn't you just say that the Soviet army is eager to retreat and does not want to tangle with us!"

    Liu Hongzhang laughed, "Yes, that's what the division commander meant. Vasilevsky's weakness lies in this. Therefore, I dare to drill into the belly of hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops with a brigade of troops. That is sufficient."  After understanding the division commander's intention, it seems that we are going deep alone, surrounded by Soviet troops. However, there are several Soviet troops who want to fight us. Aren't they the two Soviet divisions we attacked at the beginning?  "

    Liu Chenglin was already convinced, but he muttered unwillingly: "But I still feel that your order is too risky. What if, if the Soviet army comes to counter-siege, what will you do?"

    Liu Hongzhang shook his head repeatedly and said: "Cheng Lin, your worries will not arise. Look at the current position of our brigade. There are no Soviet troops on the left wing. It seems that we are rushing into the depth of the Soviet army. In fact, we are pursuing in parallel. You can see clearly.  Just take a bite. If that Vasilevsky is really angry and wants to launch a counter-siege, before he mobilizes his troops, we only need to move south to escape the danger. Maybe we can catch a lot of fish.  Where are the Soviet troops?¡±

    As he spoke, Liu Hongzhang looked intoxicated, "I really want that Vasilevsky to surround me. The art of war is as follows: surround it five times and annihilate it ten times. What's the matter? Deal with my first brigade.  The Soviet army must have mobilized no less than 100,000 people. According to the Soviet army's establishment, that is the strength of two armies. In this way, it is a waste of money! "

    Liu Hongzhang's current appearance is almost exactly the same as what Tang Qiuli said to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe in the Delun Division headquarters, "We are worried here, that Liu Hongzhang may be eagerly looking forward to the victory of Huaxi  Levsky is coming to surround him!"

    Liu Chenglin felt a chill and thought to himself: "Well, the brigade commander is fighting hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops. It's not enough. He wants to catch a bigger one. Following a brigade commander like this is exciting enough, but it's also exciting.  My heart is pounding and I¡¯m on tenterhooks!¡±

    There was a question that puzzled Liu Chenglin. He asked: "Brigade Commander, according to your analysis, we should pursueThere are five brigades in our army. Didn¡¯t the brigade commanders of other armies understand the division commander¡¯s intention and take advantage of the opportunity to fight? Why were our brigade thrown away by more than 70 kilometers?  "

    Liu Hongzhang looked like he knew everything and said: "That's a good question, Cheng Lin. The other brigade commanders are not fools. On the contrary, they are all as smart as human beings. How can they see such a bargain?"  It's a good thing, I've seen it for a long time, but why is it not as fast as our brigade's pursuit?"

    "Why?" Liu Chenglin asked, not because he was deliberately trying to satisfy Liu Hongzhang's vanity, but because he really didn't know the reason.

    Liu Hongzhang rubbed the stubble on his chin with his hand and said: "The reason is very simple. First, they are chasing the retreating Soviet troops in the middle. Once they pursue and attack like us, the Soviet troops will be surrounded on all sides. There is no need.  Deliberately encircling, as long as the Soviet troops on both sides squeeze into the middle, there will be no place to run. Our brigade's position does not have this problem. God will also take care of me, Liu Hongzhang, ah-hahaha!"

    "Our brigade is having a great time fighting. Among the hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops, we are walking back and forth. How can those guys not be jealous? It's not that they don't want to fight hard, but they can't and don't dare. Objective conditions don't allow it.  If you can follow the Soviet army and tear off the flesh in small bites, of course the victory will not be great! "

    Liu Chenglin suddenly realized that all this was under the control of the division commander and brigade commander, and he had to be frightened for most of the day. What kind of thing is this!

    While he was thinking wildly, Liu Hongzhang obviously didn't finish his thoughts and continued: "Actually, Chu's fourth brigade has the same chance as our brigade. The direction of his pursuit happened to be between the two Soviet troops.  With a gap of about forty kilometers, the Fourth Brigade can pursue in any direction without the risk of being surrounded!"

    Liu Chenglin no longer asked foolishly. He knew that the brigade commander was talking about it in excitement. No need to ask, he would definitely continue. Sure enough, Liu Hongzhang continued: "But the fourth brigade of the big man Chu is still falling behind."  Our brigade was behind, and it was his own fault. The direction of the pursuit of the fourth brigade was around Delen. He was eager to pursue the Soviet army, and his hands and feet were not very agile. After the troops swept past, he missed five to six thousand Soviet stragglers. "

    "And the division commander, with his headquarters, was on his way to Delenn. As a result, he was surrounded by five to six thousand Soviet skirmishers south of Delenn. If Lao Ren's 11th Brigade hadn't rescued him in time, he said  Something big might happen. Although the division commander did not criticize the big man Chu, he knew it well. Fortunately, if something happened to the division commander, the brothers would definitely not be able to spare him. Therefore, the fourth brigade was quite satisfactory.  Play slowly and steadily, and if you are greedy for opportunities, you will naturally fall behind!¡±

    Liu Hongzhang's tone seemed to feel sorry for Chu Ziye. Just as he was about to give Liu Chenglin some instructions, suddenly, there was an earth-shattering sound of shelling outside. The earth trembled a few times. Looking through the window of the armored command vehicle, it was already  In the dusk field, the cannonballs trailed dark red tail flames and screamed across the sky, blasting the distant sky and earth into a sky that was darker than the sunset.

    "Okay! Yang Erlunzhi's heavy artillery regiment has begun to take action. Cheng Lin, give the order, and the fourth regiment will immediately launch an attack on the Soviet army. However, you are right. What if Vasilevsky becomes angry and loses control?  It's not a joke to bite back. Order the third and fourth regiments to maintain the intensity of the attack, with the goal of biting the two Soviet divisions again. Don't be too greedy!  There are ten brigades of troops inside, so this part of the Soviet army cannot escape!" Liu Hongzhang ordered with some reluctance.

    Sighing, Liu Hongzhang said in conclusion: "First, we captured two Soviet divisions, and then two more. With the piecemeal attacks before, I guess our brigade has killed about five Soviet divisions, right?"  Okay, it¡¯s okay, I won¡¯t suffer any loss, what do you think, Cheng Lin?¡±

    Liu Chenglin was speechless for a while, rolled his eyes at Liu Hongzhang, and muttered to himself, "One brigade has eaten five entire divisions of the Soviet army, nearly 70,000 people. The brigade commander is still not satisfied. Well, I don't want to be stimulated here anymore."  He said hello, quickly jumped out of the armored command vehicle, and went to convey the order.

    Liu Hongzhang also jumped out of the car and walked towards a high hill. The commander of the brigade guard battalion quickly stopped in front of him and said: "Brigadier Commander, you can't leave the area around the armored command vehicle. It's too dangerous outside. There are fierce battles everywhere. Su  The army's artillery shells come from time to time, and the chief of staff has given instructions that you are not allowed to go more than ten meters away from the armored command vehicle!"

    Liu Hongzhang took a closer look at the young major guard battalion commander with a nervous look on his face. He burst into laughter and said, "Look at how nervous you are. I have experienced many scenes bigger than this."  , Lao Maozi¡¯s cannonballs were fired aimlessly, why did they land on me? Forget it, if you are worried, send more guards to follow.Done!  "
