Republic of China game

At dawn on October 10, bursts of explosions that shook the world broke the tranquility of the blocking position on the north bank of the Laodao River.The immediate reinforcements under the command of Xiao Yaonan finally arrived.Nearly 1 artillery pieces of various types suddenly fired in unison, and the non-stop shelling for 10 minutes in a row shook the ground, the flames filled the sky, and the thick gunpowder smoke enveloped the entire front line of Laodao River, turning the glimmer of light brought by the morning sun into the sky. Completely covered, the battlefield with a radius of more than ten kilometers returned to suffocating darkness.

The sound of the guns did not stop, and thousands of Zhili elites seemed to be desperate to launch a fierce attack on the Kuomintang army positions in the hilly area on the north bank of the Laodao River.With so many troops invested, the decisiveness of the battle far exceeded the expectations of Luo Yaoguo, An Sihua and others.

Fortunately, the powerful and rapid shelling of the direct army did not cause too many casualties to the officers and soldiers of the eighth division of the Kuomintang army and the No.20 fifth division.From September 9th, these two elite divisions were transferred to the hilly area on the north bank of the Laodao River, and began to build fortifications relying on dozens of hills, large and small, in this area.Most of Luo Yaoguo's courses at West Point were about fortifications and engineering, and An Sihua was also an officer who participated in World War I, so he was naturally familiar with positional warfare.According to the deployment of the two, the 26th Division and the 25th Division adopted the so-called "reverse slope operation". Therefore, Yu Xuezhong, who was in charge of the direct army artillery command, was naturally unheard of.The positions of the Kuomintang army were cleverly arranged on the back of the various highlands, and they only built strong anti-gun bunkers on the top of the highlands.All trees and weeds on the front of the high ground were cleared to clear the shooting area.The essence of anti-slope operations is to avoid the enemy's superior firepower. Our army's position deployed on the back of the mountain is a blind spot for the enemy's shelling, so no matter how many shells the direct army wastes, it will not achieve any results.

Although the bombardment of the direct army did not achieve the expected results, the benefits of their first offensive also exceeded the expectations of the Kuomintang.The [-] direct army, including [-] officers and soldiers of the Third Division of the Central Army of the Beiyang Government, was thrown into the battlefield in the first wave of assault!Yes, it is the third division!The essence of the Beiyang direct lineage was also the well-deserved number one elite in China at that time.The difference from history is that Wu Peifu gave up the plan of landing a sneak attack at the beginning and used the third division as a reserve team.And after the Kuomintang's large-scale northern expedition began, Wu Peifu decisively assigned the third division to Xiao Yaonan.He asked Xiao Yaonan to concentrate the main force to defeat the Kuomintang troops in Hunan, and then move to Jiangxi to fight.After the Kuomintang in Jiangxi was also repelled, they led the whole army to the north for reinforcements, and repeatedly told Xiao Yaonan to be fast, and to attack enemies from all sides of the immediate line at a fast pace, otherwise there was a danger of being wiped out.Therefore, Xiao Yaonan didn't care that the third division was Wu Peifu's heart and soul, so he sacrificed his trump card at the beginning.

In this way, an unprecedented and tragic decisive battle related to the old and new groups and the fate of nearly [-] million people in the whole of southern China began!

The battle entered a fierce state from the very beginning, guns fired and smoke billowed, and the entire battlefield was like a sea of ​​flames. Tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides began to fight repeatedly on the ten-kilometer life-and-death line, and fought fiercely for a whole day. There were heavy casualties, but no one was willing to take a step back, because a step back would be Avici Hell!

As the sun slowly rose, the sunlight illuminated the battlefield, and more and more troops were invested by both sides.The war is also getting more and more tragic.The fighting positions were littered with corpses, flames were everywhere, and the blood mist caused by bullets rained all over the sky. The whole front was filled with the stench of charred corpses and acrid gunpowder smoke.

At this time, Luo Yaoguo and An Sihua were like two cold-blooded butchers without sympathy. They ordered and instructed thousands of National Revolutionary Army soldiers to the north bank of the Laodao River. mill.Because they know that the battle at this time has reached the most critical moment, as long as there is a slight hesitation or a slight retreat, it may cause the collapse of the whole line, the consequences will be greater casualties, and the entire national revolution will sink from now on, never to die. Turn over the day.

In the former enemy general headquarters of the Kuomintang Second Front Army on the south bank of the Laodao River, the 25-year-old former enemy commander Luo Yaoguo was furiously reprimanding Wang Boling who had just come down from the front line.Wang Bailing's Ninth Division had returned to the city of Changsha two days ago and served as the general reserve of the whole army.At noon today, after repelling the straight army's four onslaughts across the board, Luo Yaoguo and An Sihua decided to launch a counterattack, trying to inflict heavy damage on the enemy and restore some of the positions previously captured by the straight army.At this time, Wang Bailing, who has always been greedy for life and fear of death, only knows about wine and beauty, unexpectedly found out in his conscience that he decided to contribute to the party and the country. Luo Yaoguo felt that he should give his good friend a chance to make contributions, er, so he could be dragged to the general staff This will prevent the Ninth Division from always being at the bottom of the Kuomintang army, which will make Chiang Kai-shek lose face.However, some things are always not as expected.

"Shoot! Someone! Drag Wang Boling out and shoot him!" Luo Yaoguo slapped the table and shouted to shoot Wang Boling.

The attack commanded by Wang Boling was completely defeated by the Zhijun Army, and the Ninth Division also suffered losses of thousands of people, but these were not a problem.Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs, and there is no one who is immortal in war.However, a certain cowardly division commander hit the guards around him with a stink bomb, spattered his whole body, and then cried and ordered the entire line to retreat, causing all the positions he had just captured to be lost, and he was also killed. The straight army chased after them, almost shaking the whole line!In the end, it was An Sihua who went into battle in person, showing the aura of the old demon An in the Whampoa Military Academy, and led the front army guards to the front line to supervise the battle, and shot three commanders of the Ninth Division in succession, and one who yelled and disturbed the army Party representative Miao Bin stabilized his position.As for Wang Bailing, who was already somewhat insane, he was knocked unconscious by the second lieutenant staff officer Cen Biqing and dragged back to the former enemy headquarters.

"I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm already dead, you, you, what are you going to do? Where are you dragging me? I'm not going anywhere, I'm not going anywhere, I want a nanmu coffin, a golden nanmu coffin, I want a good nanmu coffin!" I don't know if he was scared stupid by the blood on the battlefield, or was smashed by Cen Biqing's bricks, but now Wang Bailing is talking nonsense, firmly thinking that he is dead.It made the staff officers in the headquarters try to keep their faces sullen, so as not to laugh out loud.

"Oh my god! How could I have made such a friend?" Luo Yaoguo was relieved when he saw Wang Bailing, who was so foolish and silly. After all, Luo Yaoguo and Wang Bailing had a good relationship, and their hobbies were also very close, uh , are all beauties and talk on paper.

"Okay, okay, Wang Boling ran away because of a sudden madness, so he won't be shot, he will be dismissed and investigated, and handed over to Commander Tan for discipline." Luo Yaoguo shook his head and sent the guards to drag the "living dead" Wang Boling out of the headquarters. .Strange to say, Wang Boling, who had already gone mad, heard that instead of being shot but handed over to the kind-hearted Granny Tan, he didn't make any noise and became obedient.It seems that this madness is just pretending, right?But Luo Yaoguo is not interested in pursuing this kind of matter now.Due to Wang Boling's poor performance, the Kuomintang army has now fallen into a passive position again.Taking advantage of the national army's wavering opportunity, Xiao Yaonan invested in the 25th Division of the Central Army, his direct line, and launched another round of fierce attack.

"Order An Sihua to take over the Ninth Division, and order the No.12 Division to invest in reinforcements." Luo Yaoguo pondered for a while in front of the map before ordering his only ace, the No.12 Division, to be thrown in.Now Luo Yaoguo is like a red-eyed gambler, there is no other better way than to bet all his last dollar.After committing to the Twelfth Division, except for the defeated Ninth Division and the four Hunan Divisions responsible for encircling Changsha, Luo Yaoguo no longer had any troops to use.

After sending the Twelfth Division to the front line, Luo Yaoguo began to meditate in front of the huge battle map.He was not sure how many troops the enemy had.It was originally estimated that the Zhijun Army had seven to eight divisions, but the officers and soldiers of the famous Third Division were found among the Zhijun prisoners captured this morning.Now Luo Yaoguo even suspected that it was Wu Peifu himself who commanded the direct army to fight!Although Wu Peifu was defeated by the Seventh Army, the Fourth Army, and the Ye Ting Independent Regiment of the Kuomintang in another time and space.But that was Wu Peifu without the third division. The third division was disbanded after the Second Zhifeng War and its establishment was revoked.And in this time and space, the Third Division, which was supposed to fight in the north, actually came to Hunan, so what other troops would come to Hunan?Will Feng Yuxiang come?

"Order the two division commanders Zhang Huizan and Lu Diping to prepare to withdraw the troops from the Changsha city." Luo Yaoguo looked at the generals in the headquarters: "Everyone, the time for the decisive battle is coming soon, and the enemy's fierce attack is desperate. The momentum will gradually weaken, and we will fight back tomorrow morning. Our headquarters will cross the Laodao River tonight, and Qian Muyi's artillery will also cross the river. We will fight to the death."

Chapter 0089 Hunan Campaign ([-])

In the fierce battle on October 10, the enemy and us fought until dark. After a whole day of fierce fighting, the two sides launched a total of more than ten violent charges.More than half of the positions have changed hands several times, and the offense and defense often change hands in an instant. This is a contest of strength between the two sides and a test of the spirit of the two armies.Due to the absence of a large number of Communist Party members and regiment members, the fighting will and sacrifice spirit of the Kuomintang army in this time and space is obviously inferior, basically comparable to that of the direct army.The two armies are also very close in terms of weaponry and training levels.The direct army has an advantage in the number of artillery, and the Kuomintang army has advantages in mortars, machine guns, and submachine guns.In addition, the numbers of the two armies were not much different. Except for the four divisions used to encircle Changsha, the Kuomintang army had seven divisions involved in the battle, while the direct line included Xiao Yaonan's three divisions and seven brigades in Hubei, the Beiyang third division, Anhui The three brigades transferred were equivalent to the strength of nine divisions. However, the local troops in Anhui and Hubei were not strong in combat effectiveness and their staffing was uneven.

As soon as the day's battle was over, Luo Yaoguo immediately held a meeting at the front enemy headquarters to summarize the first day's battle situation and plan for tomorrow's counterattack. In addition, he listened to the suggestions of the frontline generals.

"Today, the enemy launched ten full-line charges, each with 20 minutes of artillery preparation. According to the measurement of the Sound Measurement Company of the Reconnaissance Battalion directly under the Artillery Command, the enemy's artillery has not moved out of its nest all day today," said Qian Dajun. At this point, there was a trace of excitement on his face: "Fu Wen, we have calculated the exact position of the enemy's artillery positions, there is absolutely no mistake."

This is the data obtained after repeated sound tests throughout the day, and the conclusions drawn after precise calculations, naturally there will be no problem.According to the calculation results, the artillery positions of the Zhijun Army are only 3 kilometers away from the forefront positions of the Kuomintang Army.

"Fuwen, let's send people to raid their artillery positions! There are at least a hundred mountain cannons there!" Wang Bao's Eighth Division had been bombarded for a day, and now he dreamed of having an artillery battalion, so he heard Said that the enemy's artillery position was actually right under my nose, and I couldn't help but want to grab one.

An Sihua shook his head resolutely: "No, how can it be so easy to break through the three-kilometer position? Let's use artillery. Now that we have figured out their positions, we can use artillery to deal with them." There was no such thing in European wars. How to play, those 75mm mountain guns are not worth much at all, which stupid commander would use troops to snatch them?Besides, is it you who grab it faster or someone else who blows it up faster?

"Fuwen, I also support the elder brother's suggestion. It would be a pity if such a good gun is damaged? Let's go and grab it!" Li Shunen also supported Wang Bao's suggestion. He said: "Today's battle is the enemy pressing us to fight. , so they didn’t build a solid line of defense, it shouldn’t be difficult to break through, and we can mobilize submachine gun commandos, our nine divisions can use at least 10 submachine guns to launch an assault together, and they can kill three kilometers in [-] minutes gone."

Four thousand submachine guns launched a group charge?Hehe, this sounds scary.

"Sihua, what do you think of this method? Let the death squads get under the enemy's nose at night. After the artillery fires rapidly for 3 minutes, the whole army will attack. [-] submachine guns will lead the charge, and then invest in two divisions to follow up. As long as the enemy is captured Everything will be fine in the artillery position." Luo Yaoguo finally chose the cannon heartlessly in the face of human life and cannon!

There were at least 100 mountain guns and about 200 mortars.The Zhijun deployed and used all the cannons in a centralized manner, but they didn't play much role in the one-day battle. Instead, the Kuomintang's scattered mortars and machine guns were used together to achieve great results.The Kuomintang army often set up several Min 13 heavy machine guns on the top of the high ground, and opened fire violently when they were 300 meters away from the enemy. Although the Zhijun army was brave, they were not fools.So the mortars that were adjusted to shoot at Zhuyuan came to harvest life, and these abominable mortars were deployed on the back of the high ground, and the observers in the anti-gun bunkers on the top of the high ground instructed to shoot. The cannon can't do anything to them at all.

This is the damn anti-slope combat, and the top of the mountain is the key "ridge line" of the anti-slope operation. Today, the Zhijun and the National Army fought around the ridges all day long.Zhijun, who encountered this style of play for the first time, was helpless for a while, and paid an extremely heavy price on the first day.So much so that Xiao Yaonan, who received the casualty report, tremblingly picked up the phone in the headquarters and pleaded guilty to Marshal Wu who was far away in Beijing.

"Yu Shuai, I'm sorry, I'm guilty." Hearing Xiao Yaonan's trembling voice on the phone, Wu Peifu's heart skipped a beat!God!Could it be that Xiao Yaonan's entire army was wiped out?

"Lanling, what's the matter?" Wu Peifu calmed down and asked, "Did the chaotic party defeat you?"

"Not yet, it's just that your old third division has more than half of its casualties, Master Yu, I'm sorry for you!" After hearing Xiao Yaonan's words, Wu Peifu was slightly relieved.Compassion cannot command soldiers. The Third Division was originally used to fight tough and bitter battles. It doesn't matter how many people die, as long as the battle can be won, it will be fine to recruit troops later.These days, where there is land, there are oceans, and where there are oceans, there are soldiers.

"Lanling, it doesn't matter. I don't blame you. We can still recruit if the troops are lost. I, Wu Peifu, don't know anything else. I think I am the best in the world in military training. As long as we pass this hurdle, I will do nothing else in the next two years." Don’t do it, train well and train millions of elite soldiers, and I don’t believe that there will be bandits surnamed Zhang if the insurgent party is defeated!” Speaking of the surname Zhang, Wu Peifu literally gritted his teeth.Hehe, now the elite soldiers trained by the surname Zhang are brutally torturing Wu Ziyu's soldiers in Shanhaiguan.

In the second Zhifeng war in history, Feng Yuxiang's defection was a key factor, but it is undeniable that Wu Peifu was also defeated before this.Even on the most critical front line of Shanhaiguan, they were suppressed and beaten by Feng Jun.In another time and space, the first and third armies of the "Zhenwei Army" commanded by Zhang Xueliang stormed the front line of the Shanhaiguan Army since September 9. Under the cover of a large number of superior artillery, the Feng army went forward without fear of sacrifice. The onslaught of the sky captured a large number of strategic points, and Shanhaiguan was already facing loss before Feng Yuxiang turned his back.In fact, Feng Jun's indiscriminate fighting was without Guo Songling. Young Master Zhang is not expected to lead troops, and General Zhang's ordinary green forest heroes are not masters who can fight regular wars, but Guo Songling and other officers from the mainland Still very skillful.

In addition to the two protagonists of the Kuomintang and the Zhili warlords in the battle on October 10, there were also some guys who watched the show.Zhao Hengti took the Four King Kong under his command to the top of the Changsha Beiguan tower to watch the battle for a day.The Laodaohe battlefield is less than 1 kilometers away from Changsha Beiguan. With a 10x telescope and the height of Changsha Beiguan, Zhao Hengti can roughly see the situation on the battlefield.Of course, that's because the five of them are experts, and it would be incomprehensible if they were ordinary people.

"Everyone, did you see that Marshal Wu's reinforcements have caused heavy casualties to the rebels, and within three days at most, our siege in Changsha can be relieved." Zhao Hengti put down the binoculars, and, ignoring the numbness of his arms, he began to brag: "We in Hunan Province have made great contributions to the annihilation of the rebellious party. It seems that the unpopular situation in Hunan that has been divided for a long time can soon be changed. The next thing we need to prepare is how to cooperate better..."

"Marshal, there are no outsiders here." Tang Shengzhi's cold voice suddenly interrupted Zhao Hengti's speech.Tang Shengzhi went on to say: "Commander, I think Marshal Wu is going to be killed this time. There are so many shells today, and such a violent charge can't hit the Laodaohe. Moreover, listening to the sound of guns, the Kuomintang side has not weakened, but directly The army's offensive is weaker than one. Moreover, the Kuomintang in Jiangxi is also making rapid progress. General Cai Huchen (Jiangdu Cai Chenxun) may not last for a few days. Should we consider voting for another name?"

"Meng Xiao! Yushuai sent troops from thousands of miles to rescue us in Hunan, how can you say such a thing! I decided to launch a counterattack from the city early tomorrow morning. We and the Zhijun will attack from inside and outside. We must defeat the rebellious party! Do you understand? "Zhao Hengti has no way out. Tang Shengzhi defected to the Kuomintang, so there is always a division commander, and there may be 20 or [-] foreign money to take.He, Zhao Hengti, is now a warlord. Is there a warlord on the Kuomintang side?People are called the chairman of the National Government, and the chairman of Hunan is Grandma Tan.In the past, Zhao Hengti could only sit on the bench.

"I understand!" Ye Kaixin was the only one who understood, and the other three looked at each other in blank dismay, none of them understood.

"You guys!" Zhao Hengti looked at the three silent division commanders, stomped his feet and said, "Do you think you can still be the same as before when the Kuomintang entered the city? The division commanders over there are not the same as your current division commanders. Their division commanders are just like those in Japan and Germany. They are in charge and can’t do anything! Do you still want to eat vacancies? Do you want to deduct military pay? Do you still want to extort the common people? Do you still want to have so many benefits? "

"But, but what we are doing now is not right." He Yaozu, the commander of the first division under Zhao Hengti, said this: "We have always done wrong things in the past, and now we have done our wrong things well, and we have earned enough. If you have a division commander, you can be the division commander. If you don’t do it, go home and enjoy this life. But commander, we will always follow you to the end. If the Zhijun can defeat the Kuomintang, we will support you as commander, or else forget it? We have already discussed this matter with Mr. Tan."

Chapter 0090 Hunan Campaign ([-])

At dawn on October 1924, 10, the front line of Laodao River was eerily quiet.After a whole day of fighting yesterday, the officers and soldiers of the two armies have endured a great test physically and mentally.In order to cope with the next day's battle, the only thing experienced veterans have to do after a day's fighting is to reserve their physical strength for tomorrow's battle.As soon as the battle was over, the field kitchens of the two armies sent delicious braised pork to the positions. This was a common practice in the Chinese Civil War. No one knew if there would be a tomorrow, so it was better to be a hungry ghost than a hungry ghost.Along with the braised pork, cigarettes, white wine and foreign money were sent to the battle.The situation on both sides is similar, neither of them is the legendary revolutionary army, and the necessary material stimulation is indispensable.After enjoying it so-so, the officers and soldiers of the two armies, except those who stood guard, began to sleep soundly.Of course, senior officers cannot sleep. They often don't even have a minute of sleep during days and nights of battle.

At this time, Luo Yaoguo and his former enemy headquarters had already crossed the Laodao River. In a hidden small village on the north bank of the Laodao River, Luo Yaoguo and his staff were waiting quietly.In 10 minutes, everything will be revealed whether it is prosperity or ruin.An Sihua is not in the headquarters now. As Luo Yaoguo's brother-in-law and number one assistant, this 30-year-old Chinese-German military strategist decided to personally command the attack that is about to be launched. Luo Yaoguo approved his request without thinking too much.In the entire Kuomintang army, he is the one who has the most solid military education and the richest war experience, so no one is more suitable than him to command this attack.

Suddenly, there was a loud cannon!Thousands of shining ballistics dragged long flames, roaring and flying towards the forward position of the direct army.Amidst the billowing smoke, Luo Yaoguo's idea of ​​artillery was manifested for the first time. Although it was only a small test, when tens of thousands of shells of various types hit the lineal army's position of less than three kilometers in an instant, they still brought a lot of pain. A horrifying massacre came.Countless fireballs soaring into the sky rolled up all kinds of debris, and swept across the entire position under the action of a huge shock wave, and all exposed targets turned into dust and fragments in an instant.

In just 3 minutes, it seemed like three long years. The shells that fell from the sky repeatedly poured back and forth between the simple trenches of the Zhijun Army. The shells ruthlessly took away the lives of any who approached them.Even the lucky ones who were a little farther away from the shell's landing point were likely to be stunned by the deafening explosion, and then they would be submachine gun bullets from the Kuomintang army commandos waiting for them.

The gunfire did not stop, and the charge of the National Army commando began.Thousands of death fighters who had already paid for their lives, under the supervision of a large number of enthusiastic graduates of the Whampoa Military Academy, charged without waiting for the shelling to end.This is An Sihua's order. He wants to charge and break through the last 200 meters by using the short stun period brought by the shelling to the enemy!The death squads of the Kuomintang army have quietly touched the starting line 300 meters away from the enemy's position.And the best combat distance of submachine guns in their hands is within 100 meters. As long as they break through the last 200 meters of life and death, 4000 submachine guns will unleash their power, and [-] rifles will not be able to stop them, not to mention the defense on this position. The straight army will not exceed one division.

Immediately after the sound of the cannon was the thundering sound of gunfire, the flames on the straight army's position, the sound of gunfire from thousands of submachine guns roaring at the same time, the screams of being hit by bullets, and the explosion of grenades one after another.More than 4000 soldiers of the National Army commando broke into the position of the 25th Division of the Zhili Army in one go, and fought fierce decisive battles with thousands of Zhili soldiers who had just survived the shelling.The close-combat power of the submachine gun was undoubtedly revealed again. With the sudden attack and overwhelming firepower and troop input, a 2-kilometer-long breach was torn apart in just a few minutes on the straight army's position.

"Our division suffered heavy casualties! The 25th Brigade's position has been broken through by the rebels, and our division is unable to recover. Now we are turning to the second position with steady resistance. We ask Xiao Shuai for immediate reinforcements." Chen Jiamo asked Xiao Yaonan for help on the phone. He is Xiao Yaonan's direct descendant, and he was the number two thug after the third division in this battle, so he suffered heavy losses in yesterday's battle.Now that it has been raided by the Kuomintang, it seems that the [-]th Division of the Beiyang Central Army is going to be buried in Hunan.

At this time, the front line of Laodaohe had already started. In order to contain the direct forces and prevent them from deploying troops to reinforce the defense line of the 25th Division, Luo Yaoguo used a total of 9 divisions in this raid.All of a sudden, there was loud gunfire, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the shouts of killing were louder and louder.The calls for help in Xiao Yaonan's headquarters also rang one after another. It seemed that the entire front was on the verge of collapse, and every place claimed to have been raided by the main force of the rebel party. The casualties were heavy and they were retreating steadily.

"Xiao Shuai, it's better to retreat, so that the green hills will not be afraid of running out of firewood." Ma Rusong, whose head and arms are wrapped in bandages, suggested in a low voice.He is the brigade commander of the 1th Brigade of the [-]rd Division, acting as Wu Peifu to command the [-]rd Division to participate in the battle. In yesterday's attack, he took the lead in the charge, but was wounded by the Kuomintang mortar, and now he has to be bandaged into a mummy. Xiao Yaonan's headquarters has also served as a senior officer.The reinforcements that Xiao Yaonan could use now, except for those Anhui mixed brigades that didn't work at all, was the third division. The third division was the main force of yesterday's attack. The entire division had [-] casualties and over [-].

"Ru Song, I also want to retreat, but where can I retreat now? Now our branch with tens of thousands of people is mixed with the rebels on a position more than ten kilometers long, and if we retreat now, the whole line will collapse." Xiao Yaonan shook Shaking his head, he ordered the staff to send a telegram to Zhao Hengti in Changsha City, asking him to send troops to help immediately.Uh, Xiao Yaonan who "aided Hunan" actually asked Zhao Hengti, the governor of Hunan, to come to help him.Zhao Hengti agreed to send this telegram. I'm afraid his Four King Kongs will not do it, right?

"Tu-Tu-Tu--" The sound of submachine guns continued one after another, getting closer and louder.The Zhi army is not equipped with this kind of "advanced weapon" yet, so the approach of this kind of gunfire can only show that the Kuomintang army is coming here.The commander-in-chief of the artillery, Yu Xuezhong, is now anxious like an ant on a hot pot. He yells and orders the artillery to drag the cannon from the position and put it on the carriage to prepare to take it away. At the critical moment, there was a lot of chaos, either the horse was startled or the cart overturned. After more than ten minutes of busy work, only one-third of the cannons were mounted on the carriage.

"Enough!" Yu Xuezhong ran to the battlefield and shouted: "I don't care about the rest, let's move first. The engineers are going to blow up the cannons!" Bombing the cannons?How to fry?Yu Xuezhong's artillery, who became a monk halfway, was temporarily pulled to be the commander-in-chief of the artillery this time. He didn't remember that the artillery had the skill of blasting cannons. Maybe it was the work of the engineers?So after giving an order, he hurriedly moved more than 40 cannons and dozens of carts of ammunition that could be pulled away.In fact, the artillerymen of the Republic of China did not know how to blow up cannons. This thing is so old and expensive, who is willing to blow it up?If they bombed the cannons at every turn, the Communist Party would not have seized so many cannons back then?

"Suddenly——" A tall and burly man from the Northwest led a team of commandos with submachine guns, and rushed into the artillery position of the Zhijun army fiercely. The officers and soldiers were beaten into blood gourds.

"Damn! There are so many cannons, hehe, I'm going to be promoted this time! Yaoming, hurry up and take the brothers to drag the cannons down, and then look after them. They were all captured by the 22st Battalion and 1st Company of the 1nd Regiment! No! Let others share it." Guan Linzheng was so happy from ear to ear when he saw so many cannonballs, but he hasn't forgotten to eat alone, uh, so this person's popularity is very poor.

"Okay! The enemy's artillery position has been taken down. It's Guan Linzheng. He really is a great general! He was ordered to be promoted to battalion commander and Zhang Yaoming to be company commander. Each will be rewarded 500 Dayang, and each officer and soldier will be rewarded 50 Dayang." Luo Yaoguo answered. It was full of joy on the Jiebaolian, and generously appointed officials to the heroes.Although the power to appoint military officers within the Kuomintang was centralized in the Ministry of the Army and the General Staff, the right to "fireline appointments" still had to be given to the frontline generals, and the General Staff and the Ministry of the Army could verify and confirm afterwards.

"Supplementary text, dispatch a group of gunners to take over the enemy's cannons, use their artillery positions and cannons to bombard themselves, and ask Guan Linzheng if he has found the enemy's defense map or code book or something." On the side Qian Dajun, who was the temporary guest chief of staff, was not dazzled by the victory, and immediately put forward further suggestions.

Luo Yaoguo and members of the headquarters have now boarded an unnamed high ground to observe the situation of the entire battlefield.About 3 kilometers in the center of the enemy's front is the main breakthrough this time, and the enemy's artillery position is about 2 kilometers behind them.Now this position has been completely broken by the National Army commandos, and even their artillery positions have been occupied.Now Luo Yaoguo had two choices, one was to accept the situation as soon as it was good, and ordered the enemy's cannons to be dragged back to end the battle.The other is to invest all the troops to launch a fierce attack and repel the enemy in one fell swoop!

Picking up the 6x binoculars, Luo Yaoguo carefully observed the front line of the Zhijun again.The direct army has now begun to retreat across the board. This is a feature of positional warfare in the Chinese Civil War.Because they are all simple linear defensive positions, not circular defensive positions, a breakthrough at one point will often cause the entire line to retreat.In contrast, the Kuomintang's front line has dozens of circular defensive positions arranged on a reverse slope supported by high ground, so it is relatively difficult to break through.
