Those three months were the most difficult three months for Wei Hongjun since he could remember. The officer training school was managed in a fully closed manner and even the doors were not allowed out. Food, drink, and use were all provided uniformly. No, Wei Hongjun doesn't even know how he survived

Hearing Wei Hongjun's words, Zhang Anle smiled. Wei Hongjun is a good fighter in war, but he loves to drink. I didn't expect this guy to be good at flattering

"Okay, let's not gossip anymore. This time we are fighting the Jin army, all actions must be ordered by the chief of staff. Shanxi is a province with a large energy source, and there is inexhaustible coal underground. We must take down Shanxi General Yan Lao Xi rushed out and the meeting ended here, you all go back and prepare, ready to fight at any time." Zhang Anle made the final speech

"Yes" everyone stood up and gave a military salute to Zhang Anle

After the battle in Xuzhou ended, Zhang Zongchang took his troops to the borders of Henan and Shandong to deploy defenses. He was full of confidence this time and did not need to go to the front to command.

Zhang Anle arrived in Zhangbei by train. Except for the chief of staff Timug, the chief of staff of the Northwest Army was originally named Batt Er, but this name was forbidden. Four of the eight division commanders who participated in the war also arrived. Zhang Anle took this opportunity to give Everyone held a meeting, emphasized the importance of fighting and tightened the strings for everyone

The former commander-in-chief of this war is Temuge, and Zhang Anle is still the shopkeeper. He knows that his level is very difficult to command so many troops. It would be bad if he intervenes randomly. morale

In order to win this war, in addition to the six divisions of the First Army originally deployed in Shaanxi and the Six Divisions of the Third Army in Suiyuan, Zhang Anle transferred two divisions from the Second Army so that the Northwest Army was deployed on the border of Shanxi With eight divisions and a total of 2 troops, his goal is to completely defeat Yan Xishan

Yan Xishan, who was in Taiyuan, was worried at this time. Originally, because his allies were all behind, he concentrated most of his troops to the border to fight against the Northwest Army. Now that Li Jinglin has turned against him, he has to spare some of his troops to defend Li Jinglin.

The Northwest Army has not moved in the past few days, so he feels something is wrong How about Feng Yuxiang's offensive? If he can defeat Li Jinglin, his situation will be much better.

Zhang Anle would not give Yan Xishan too much time. On the third day after Guo Songling's defeat, that is, at eight o'clock in the morning on November 11, the Northwest Army launched an attack on the Jin army across the board.

Zhang Anle didn't go deep into the front line, but was 10 miles away from the front line. The headquarters of the entire Northwest Army was here. Originally, he wanted to go to the battlefield in person, but Timur didn't agree with anything. Besides, this cannonball doesn’t have eyes, so it’s okay if something goes wrong.

As soon as eight o'clock arrived, I heard the sound of cannons outside, and the attack began. In the headquarters, apart from the sound of people walking, there was the tick-tock sound of the transmitter.

At this time, no one cares about him as the commander. Just when Zhang Anle didn't know what to do, a message suddenly popped up in the system asking if the siege of Datong is in progress and enter the spectator mode

Spectator mode, what is this?After Zhang Anle clicked yes, the screen flashed, and he saw the battlefield ten miles away

From the perspective of God, Zhang Anle almost jumped up happily. Not only his own soldiers, but also the deployment of the opponent's army is very clear. Although he knew that the system integrated Total War and Iron Heart, he didn't expect that such a heaven-defying thing would also be retained. down

Sun Tzu said it well, knowing yourself and the enemy can never be imperiled in a hundred battles. With this thing, it is difficult to win a battle. If you know this thing, Zhang Anle commanded the battle by himself. After trying it but not being able to command the army, Zhang Anle thought depressingly

The most depressing thing about Zhang Anle is that he did not have real swords and guns to go to the battlefield. When he was in war, he led the troops south without fighting.

However, after a short period of excitement, Zhang Anle felt depressed again, because this thing is a tasteless thing to him now, what is Zhang Anle's identity?The commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army, not a regiment commander or brigade commander, is good, but it is only useful for one battle, and it is useless for the entire war situation

Since he has no command authority and cannot command troops to fight, Zhang Anle now only thinks that he is watching the computer battle

Zhang Anle is not familiar with the main attacking troops on the front line. The soldiers of Sun Yue's troops are far away from the city wall, because the enemy troops above the city wall are condescending and occupy the superiority of the terrain. The soldiers of the Northwest Army cannot approach The city wall can only wait for the artillery to punch a gap in the city wall before soldiers can enter the city

There were also cannons on the city walls of the Jin Army, but they were all small-caliber artillery with a limited range, and did not cause much damage to the Northwest Army.

Under the fierce artillery fire of the Northwest Army, the old city wall of Datong did not last long. After more than half an hour, a bang was heard, and a section of the city wall near the northwest corner finally failed and collapsed.

After the breakthrough, the infantry began to march towards the breakthrough under the cover of artillery and machine gun fire. The enemy in the city was also reinforcing the breakthrough. The two armies arrived at the collapse almost at the same time. The two sides fought fiercely at the gap of more than ten meters.

The Northwest Army has an advantage in weapons and equipment, and the enemy's defense was quickly broken up. Some soldiers began to retreat. At this time, the second breakthrough also appeared.

With the emergence of breakthroughs one by one, soldiers began to enter the city and started street fighting with the enemy

Seeing this, Zhang Anle knew that even if Datong was won, the current soldiers are not used to it and are not good at street fighting. Fight if you can beat it, and run if you can't beat it. There are very few people who stick to the city, or fight one by one. This happened because of the current warlords' melee, the army can almost be said to be a private armed force, which is the reliance and guarantee for the chiefs to settle down, get promoted and make a fortune

Zhang Anle felt that it was not interesting, so he backed out. The sound of the Didi Didi transmitter was still in his ears. Since it had no direct effect on the war, Zhang Anle felt a little frustrated. There is nothing wrong with staying here and staying in the rear. the difference

In fact, Zhang Anle still hasn't completed his role change. He is now the chairman of the Northwest District. The commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army is no different from the later generations of heads of state. He doesn't need to come to the battlefield in person. If he really wants to come, he can come after the battle. Consoling the soldiers is the right way. He still thinks that he is a military officer and should come to the battlefield, which is why this situation is caused. No one told him about this kind of thing, and he didn't think about it for a while.

After staying at the headquarters all morning, Zhang Anle couldn't sit still any longer, so he drove back to the town behind with the guards. When he went back, he saw Yang Du was sitting in the yard basking in the sun. Next to him was a coffee table with refreshments on it. There is an empty chair next to the coffee table

"Hehe, the commander is very tired from the car ride, sit down and have some tea and snacks." Yang Du didn't get up when he saw Zhang Anle came back, he was still sitting on the chair

"En..." Zhang Anle was in a rather depressed mood, and sat on another empty chair

"Looking at the commander's complexion, is it because the battle on the front line is not going well?" Yang Du turned his head and asked

"No, the battle on the front line is very smooth, and Datong must have been occupied by now." Zhang Anle shook his head

"Then why is the commander so unhappy?" Yang Du asked with a smile

"Stayed in the headquarters all morning, I found myself feeling like an outsider." Zhang Anle smiled wryly.

"Haha, it's normal for the commander to feel uncomfortable. If you feel like a fish in water, then someone else will feel uncomfortable." Yang Du laughed after hearing Zhang Anle's answer.

"What do you mean sir?" Zhang Anle didn't quite understand the meaning of Yang Du's words

"The commander wants to go to the front line, presumably because he cares about military affairs, but you hand over the front military affairs to the chief of staff. If you are a person who likes to dictate, that's fine. But you don't like to interfere with the work of your subordinates, so you To be honest, I had already guessed that the commander would come back, but I didn't expect that you came later than I expected." Yang Du explained to Zhang Anle

"In fact, there is absolutely no need for the commander to stay on the front line. The front line has a chief of staff to command operations, and down there are army commanders and division commanders. Instead, you are here waiting for news from the front, and there are many things to do in the rear. Now you are not only As a military general or the head of the government, you can’t always focus on the battlefield. You have to worry about all aspects of the construction of the Northwest Region.” Yang Du had long wanted to talk to Zhang Anle about this, but he never found a good opportunity. This time, Zhang Anle With personal experience, the effect will be much better

After listening to Yang Du's words, Zhang Anle came to his senses, seeing that he was indeed not doing his job properly.

"Thank you sir, I understand." Zhang Anle stood up and bowed to Yang Du

"Wang Xiaozhu!" Zhang Anle shouted loudly

"Here" Wang Xiaozhu, who was standing far away, trotted over and saluted Zhang Anle

"Let them clean up and go back to Xi'an tomorrow," Zhang Anle said with a smile

"Yes" (to be continued)

Chapter 47 Talking in the car

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Anle and the others had breakfast, and were about to drive back to Xi'an. Everything was packed, and when they were about to get in the car and leave, they saw a few cars behind them driving this way.

"Look, who is that?" Zhang Anle said to Wang Xiaozhu beside him

"It should be here to see off the commander. The car seems to be the car of the chief of staff." Wang Xiaozhu took a telescope to look carefully, but the distance is too far to see clearly, but the car is the car that Temuge is riding in.

"These guys are not good at commanding and fighting at the front line. Why do you come here to see me off?" Zhang Anle frowned. with them

After a while, the kung fu car arrived in front of us, and the people who got out of the car were indeed Timuge and others.

"The commander didn't inform us that he was going back to Xi'an, we hurried and finally caught up." Timug walked to Zhang Anle and said with an apologetic expression on his face.

Looking at Timuge's appearance, Zhang Anle felt a little funny. You must know that Timuge was a person created by the system. He has a history and he once talked with Timuge, and Timuge can talk about the deeds of his predecessors. It can be said that apart from absolute loyalty, thousands of people created by the system do not have exactly the same personality.

In addition to having good military attainments, Timuge is also very smooth, and he is a very prestigious person among the officers below.

"I didn't tell you on purpose that the battle on the front line is tight now, and I don't want you to be distracted." Zhang Anle looked at the subordinates who came to see him off, and explained

"Hehe, these are what the subordinates should do to report the good news to the commander. When we came, our army had already occupied Datong County." Sun Yue smiled and brought good news to Zhang Anle

"The war started well, but you can't be proud. Now the battle on the front line depends on your hard work. When you take down Taiyuan City, I will serve you wine in Taiyuan to celebrate. Okay, let's go first. Take care "Zhang Anle said the last sentence and turned to get in the car.

Everyone watched Zhang Anle go far away before getting in the car and leaving
