says that history is always surprisingly similar. When we read history, we are the only way to remember the past and the teacher of the future. However, there are always people who don’t believe in this evil, and let Jieting and Meng Liangkou, two ancient battlefields, which are thousands of miles apart, come into an amazing cycle through a battle!
Mengliangkou, in Yimeng Mountain District, central Shandong, with mountains and streams crisscrossing. There are various types of troughs around Menglianggu. "官" means stones. There are these stone mountains called "官" everywhere in the mountainous areas of Shandong. They are rugged and abrupt, and no grass grows. This is the characteristic of the Yimeng Mountains, with the wonder of "leading countless heroes to compete for the struggle". This is also an ancient battlefield and a place that must be fought for by military strategists.
In March 1947, Chiang Kai-shek launched a key attack on Shandong and northern Shaanxi liberated areas. Chiang mobilized 24 reorganized divisions and 60 brigades, with a total of about 450,000 people, forming three corpses, commanded by Gu Zhutong and as commander-in-chief. He adopted tactics of strengthening depth, intensively approaching, steady and step-by-step advancement, and rushed towards the Shandong base with a fierce momentum.
Chen and Su led the East China Field Army to flexibly maneuver, fighting and stopping, and in early May, leading the main force to Mengyin , Xintai , and gathering in secret east of Laiwu to look for fighter jets.
Gu Jian's People's Liberation Army retreated eastward, and ordered all units to "track and suppress" them. He specially ordered the commander of the 1st Corps to lead the 74th Division, as well as the 25th Division and the 83rd Division to march into Yishui . So, the curtain of Menglianggu Battle was opened.
reorganized 74th Division, all of which are American equipment, are a type of A equipment division, known as one of the five main forces of the National Army. The division commander Zhang Lingfu , graduated from the fourth issue of Huangpu . This person relied on Chiang's valuation and was extremely arrogant. Before leaving, he spoke wildly: "Turn Chen and Su into East China Sea to feed the fish!"
Next, the strange and amazing historical reincarnation kicked off:
228 AD, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the great opportunity of the death of Cao Wei in Dongwu and Cao Pi , and led the main force of the Shu army to Qishan and occupy the three counties of Longxi, Wei State in one fell swoop.
In 1947 AD, Gu Zhutong led his 3, 5 and 6 brigades, a total of 450,000 troops, to attack the Yimeng Mountain Area in southwestern Shandong, occupying a large number of liberated areas.
Zhuge Liang's problem is that the Guanzhong army of Cao Zhen was not eliminated, and Guo Huai also stood firm and waited for help. Gu Zhutong's problem is that the target Xu Shiyou, Ye Fei's troops, and Tan Zhen's troops did not eliminate any troops except Ye Fei's troops suffered slight losses in the battle of Lianshui.
Zhuge Liang sent three groups to advance, preparing to find the main force of the Wei army to fight. Similarly, Gu Zhutong sent Tang Enbo's Corps, with Zhang Lingfu's 74th Division as the vanguard, Huang Baitao's 25th Division as the flank, Li Tianxia's 373rd Division as the reserve of the 74th Division, and the remaining corpses were scattered. In fact, there were only about 100,000 national troops used in the front line of Linyi . Due to the delay in capturing the main force of the Chinese and Ye, the national army was dispersed.
Ma Su, a man, had the intention to attack Nanzheng, and often planned for Zhuge Liang, and was highly valued by Zhuge Liang. Zhang Lingfu, as fierce as the bloody battle in Wanjialing, Changsha, was highly valued as Wang Yao's weapons. However, Liu Bei doesn’t like Ma Su very much. The same is that Chiang Kai-shek and Gu Zhutong don’t like Zhang Lingfu very much. (Wang Yaowu is the actual Shandong Suppression General Office, and most of these troops are Wang Yaowu's direct descendants).
Zhuge Liang's early troops were more powerful than the Guanlong Group of Wei, and he was well-equipped and well-trained. Therefore, the Wei army sent reinforcements of 50,000 infantry and cavalry from Zhang He's troops. The same is true for our army, and the Yimeng Mountains are seriously insufficient. Therefore, the Yimeng Mountains and Jiaodong areas were abandoned, and the main force of Shandong army was gathered, with a total of 270,000 militias not counting. A situation of 270,000 to 120,000 was formed in Linyi area.
During the Battle of Menglianggu, Huaye concentrated on his superiority and eliminated the 72nd Division, cutting off the channels for contact between Tang Enbo's Corps and Gu Zhutong's large troops, just as the meaning of Gao Xiang's troops being eliminated by Guo Huai. And from the battlefield from Menglianggu to Duozhuang, 80,000 soldiers in Huaye sharpened their knives.
At this time, Zhang Lingfu, like Ma Su, had no idea how dangerous he was.Just like Ma Su, Zhang Lingfu wanted to use his elite troops as bait to attract the main force of the enemy, and then wait for the main force to come and eliminate it in one fell swoop. This plan is well known as " center blossom ".
However, some people don’t think so. Wang Ping , since Hanzhong entered Shu, he has made great contributions to Shu Han. Wang Ping believed that guarding could not go up the mountain, and he should be guarding the dangerous place at the foot of the mountain. Wang Ping gave up going up the mountain with Ma Su and led a thousand people to stand firm in the plains. Zhang Lingfu's rear wing, Li Tianxia of the 73rd Division, was also like Wang Ping. After the main force of Huaye appeared on the 13th, he hoped that Zhang Lingfu would stay in Duozhuang and not go to Menglianggu. Zhang Lingfu refused to listen, thinking that Li Tianxia was jealous of his position as the commander of the 74th Division and wanted to take the credit for his center. Zhang asked a group of prisoners of war to defend Duozhuang, while Li Tianxia sent a regiment to support Duozhuang. When it was discovered that Duozhuang was a group of prisoners of war, it was too late, so the regiment had to retreat to Menglianggu and was finally wiped out with the 74th Division.
Wang Ping, like Li Tianxia, dared not rescue, nor retreat, and was also afraid of being eliminated. Both Li Tianxia and Wang Ping are smart because Wang Ping fled with a thousand men with 50,000 Wei troops and unknown reinforcements. Li Tianxia also successfully led a division to escape under the siege of 80,000 Menglianggu Hua Field soldiers and 250,000 Hua Field main force fighting aid. They all used the same method, pretending to be the main force, and doubting their plans.
Zhuge Liang's face must be like Gu Zhutong when he heard the crushing defeat in Jieting. Ma Su and Zhang Lingfu lost too quickly, so fast that Zhuge Liang and Gu Zhutong could not react. One of them spit out the Sanjun that had eaten into his mouth. One of them spit out the southwestern Shandong and Jiaodong areas that were eaten into their mouths, and it would not work if they didn't vomit.
At the end of the battle, Zhang Lingfu, the commander of the 74th Division, made a tactical mistake and even learned from Ma Ji to the mountain, resulting in shortage of food, water, and heavy weapons, which made it difficult for friendly troops to support. If Ma Ji had heard Zhuge Liang's words at the beginning, he would have been able to go down the village and occupy the main traffic road, and would have been suitable for attacking, defending and retreating, and would not have been destroyed within a few days. Therefore, Zhang Lingfu went up the mountain to seek death. The result of the battle was of course Zhang died in a bad life and our army won a great victory.
