Chapter 1918 Cooked Crab

Liu Fusheng smiled and didn't say anything else. Everyone stared at the laptop screen.

The war game simulation continued, and as expected, the Red Army did not take the Blue Army's position in this attack. After the scouts' report, the Blue Army may have begun to change its strategy.

Liu Fusheng ordered the infantry to rest on the spot and sent out a large number of scouts to observe the surrounding situation.

After he collected enough intelligence, he immediately concentrated the armored forces and all heavy firepower and launched a second round of attack.

This time, the offensive was first covered by heavy firepower, then the armored forces advanced, and the infantry followed up. It can be said to be a three-dimensional and comprehensive offensive.

The Blue Army's main position resisted hard for a while, but finally fell into the hands of the Red Army.

Zhao Qiu Ming's mouth was grinning. He couldn't imagine that Liu Fusheng had achieved such a great result so easily.

"This shouldn't be possible. The failure of the infantry assault proves that the defense of the blue side's position is very tight. Even with heavy firepower assault, it is impossible to take it down so easily. What is going on?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Commander Zhao has also experienced the strength of the Blue Army. They are not only cunning, but also capable of fighting tough battles. Their combat effectiveness is almost on par with that of the troops under Commander Zhao. However, our Red Army is not a pushover. If the other side withdraws a large part of its battlefield garrison forces, and we still cannot win, then that is unreasonable, isn't it?"

"Withdraw a large part? Why would they ..."

Zhao Qiu Ming stopped talking halfway because he already understood what Liu Fusheng meant.

Xie Zhenqi laughed loudly: "Great, this trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain is really a great trick. First, you hide all the armored forces and heavy firepower near the position, and only use infantry to launch a surprise attack, so that the Blue Army will mistakenly think that you are testing them. Then, in order to prevent harassment and sneak attacks, the Blue Army will greatly reduce its defense forces and concentrate its mobile forces to search for your troops."

"They never expected that the real surprise attack would be launched after their main force left. The Blue Army abandoned the headquarters that was supposed to be guarded. If you launched a strong attack, the position would be easily captured!"

Everyone nodded and admired while continuing to stare at Liu Fusheng's deduction.

In the subsequent process, Liu Fusheng came up with many surprising moves and various operations that were dazzling. The final result was that the Red Army defeated the Blue Army with a greater advantage and won the victory in the deduction.

After turning off the video, Xie Zhenqi's gaze towards Liu Fusheng had changed a little.

Before he could speak, Liu Fusheng took the initiative to say, "Thank you, Commander, and all the elders, I want to make one thing clear, the team I won was not actually Dong Rihe's Blue Army."

Zhao Qiuming frowned and said, "The opponent's strategic layout, military configuration, and firepower intensity are clearly the blue army of Dong Rihe. What nonsense are you talking about!"

Liu Fusheng smiled and explained: "Commander Zhao, the hardware of the Blue Army is exactly the same as that of Dong Rihe's troops, but the core of the Blue Army is absolutely different. Except for the initial deployment of troops, every subsequent battle node and every command operation is not at the level of Zhu Rihe's Blue Army."

After a moment's thought, everyone nodded, understanding what Liu Fusheng meant.

Liu Fusheng said: "I was lucky to win. The commander of the Blue Army probably didn't fully understand the strategic intentions of Dong Ri and the Blue Army, and didn't fully realize the value of the four words 'the art of war is deceitful' like the commander of the Blue Army."

"He thought and fought with normal, traditional military thinking. This gave me the opportunity to exploit loopholes. I became a more cunning person. So, I was lucky to win."

Xie Zhensheng said: "Well done, Secretary Liu, you are not arrogant despite your success, you are modest and prudent, and you have a spirit of seeking truth from facts. I really admire you... There are not many young people like you now."

Xie Zhenqi asked: "Who is the commander of the Blue Army in the Fengliao Military Region?"

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this, shall we?"

Xie Zhenqi's face darkened and he said, "You have already become a leader in Guangdong Province, why do you still want to protect the Fengliao Military Region? Just tell me, if Wei Qishan blames you, I will go and argue with him."

Liu Fusheng sighed, "I'm not worried about leaking the situation of the Fengliao Military Region. It's just that the person who did the war game with me is a military man after all. He must feel very uncomfortable losing to a layman like me. If I publish his name, wouldn't it be like rubbing salt into his wounds?"

"Besides, I have a good personal relationship with him, so how can I ruin his reputation..."

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "Victory and defeat are common in the military. Our Guangdong East Military Region also lost miserably in the winter. Even the commander was captured. Do I have to hide the name of the captured commander so that outsiders don't know?"

At this point, he glanced at Zhao Qiu Ming and said, "Not only did I not hide his name, I even wrote this guy's name on a banner so that the entire Guangdong East Military Region would know him and let everyone learn from his mistakes. I hope he would learn from his mistakes and lead the troops well."

Xie Zhenqi's words were very blunt, and Zhao Qiu Ming, who was standing next to him, turned as red as a cooked crab.

Everyone shook their heads. Xie Zhenqi's temper really hadn't changed at all. He was merciless when speaking to anyone. Even in front of an outsider like Liu Fusheng, he would not consider the face of his beloved general.

Liu Fusheng sighed, "Since Commander Xie has said so, I can only obey... The commander of the Blue Army who conducted the war game simulation with me is called Wang Xueqiang."

Wang Xueqiang?

Xie Zhenqi seemed to be pondering the name.

Xie Zhensheng said: "I have heard of Wang Xueqiang. He is a descendant of the Wang family in Yanjing. After Wang Kaijiang passed away, most people in the Wang family supported him. He has a high reputation in the Yanjing Garrison District. Now he should be training in the Fengliao Military District... This is Wang Kaijiang's entrustment to Wei Qishan, but..."

Xie Zhensheng paused, and then said bluntly: "Wang Xueqiang is also a latecomer. He has not been in the army for long. This failure may be due to his lack of solid theory. He only knows how to stick to dogma and does not know how to adapt to changing circumstances. In short, the war game simulation did expose a lot of problems."

Xie Zhenqi smiled and said, "So he is a second-generation playboy from the Yanjing Garrison. If he was the commander of the Blue Army, it would be reasonable for him to lose. After all, he probably has never come into contact with people with higher military skills. The knowledge he possesses is just like Zhao Kuo in ancient times. He is really just talking about war on paper."

Xie Zehua also nodded and said, "Young commanders are indeed prone to making low-level mistakes. I remember that the reason why the Soviet side suffered a huge defeat on the Soviet-German battlefield was that the Great Purge cleared the army of experienced generals, leaving behind those so-called young officers with progressive ideas. However, they had no actual combat experience at all, which led to them being crushed to death at the beginning of the war."

After everyone discussed for a while, Xie Zhenqi's attitude towards Liu Fusheng had become much more gentle.
