Dreaming back to 1937 Chapter 22 Banquet II

The entire hall was extremely quiet, except for the slight sound made by the guards setting up the telegraph machine.

Li Weidong led Zhang Xiaoyou to the center of the dance floor. Seeing this, the musician quickly started playing music.

The dance music played on the piano slowly resounded through the hall. They danced and twirled happily together. Zhang Xiaoyou still felt like she was in a dream. Everything seemed unreal, but she was reluctant to wake up.

In fact, Li Weidong's appearance is not outstanding and can only be regarded as ordinary. Today, he looks heroic in his general's uniform. Paired with the beautiful Zhang Xiaoyou, it is like a match made in heaven.

"From today on, no one will dare to force you anymore!" Li Weidong said in her ear to the beat.

After the song ended, Li Weidong led Zhang Xiaoyou to Zhang Hongming and said, "Uncle, Xiaoyou will be handed over to you first!"

"Okay! Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth!" Zhang Hongming couldn't help but sigh with tears in his eyes.

Originally, he was desperate for his daughter, but suddenly he found that things had changed. Even if he was not a soldier, and he had never been a soldier, he could still see that Li Weidong's soldiers were all elites and obeyed orders. Suddenly

The surprise made him somewhat unable to control his emotions.

At this time, Li Weidong turned around and faced these high-class ladies in the hall.

"Good evening everyone, I am Li Weidong, the leader of the Wenchang Militia. Why are you here today? As you can see now, I am looking for trouble with Liu Yongqi! So, you don't need to worry about your own safety." Li Weidong's words played a certain role.

, the people in the hall gradually relaxed. No matter who is in power in Hainan, it is only possible with their support.

Moreover, many people also understood that this young man was the mysterious leader of the Wenchang Militia. Speaking of this Wenchang Militia, many people in Hainan knew about it.

Because, since the day it was established, closed training has been carried out, and the guards at the station are also very tight, and no one is allowed to approach at all.

Even Liu Yongqi once sent people to infiltrate, but there was no news after he went there. He didn't know that Li Weidong deployed a lot of police dogs outside the valley at that time. The people he sent were discovered as soon as they entered, and they are still locked up now.

.However, because he thought Li Weidong was from the Zhang family, it was not easy to force him. Therefore, he did not pay attention. According to his idea, what a small militia group could do.

Suddenly, fierce gunshots were heard outside.

Hearing the gunshots outside, Liu Wencai shouted with joy: "Haha! Our people have arrived, and you still don't surrender obediently. Maybe we will be merciful and give you a way to survive!"

This sentence made everyone in the hall look at him like an idiot. Isn't this girl stupid? His life is still in his hands, so he still can't see the form clearly?

"I like beating people!" Seeing how arrogant this kid was, Wu Qiang clenched his fists and walked towards Liu Wencai.

"You...what do you want to do? Don't come over!" Only then did Liu Wen realize that the situation was not good.

At this time, Niu Meng walked in.

"General! The 27th enemy brigade has discovered the situation here and has launched an attack! The commander of the first battalion is organizing defense." Report to Li Weidong about the exchange of fire outside.

The 27th Brigade, as a direct unit of Liu Yongqi, is unquestionable in its loyalty to Liu Yongqi. They receive relatively high military pay, and their weapons are specially ordered by Liu Yongqi from abroad. Therefore, their combat effectiveness is the strongest in Hainan.

"Start the radio. Instruct all units to report the battlefield situation and progress speed to the headquarters immediately!" Li Weidong ordered the correspondent. This is a temporary command organization established by Li Weidong, using the radio to command troops in various places.

After a while, intelligence from each unit was reported. On the North Road, the First Regiment and the Artillery Battalion had already divided Liu Yongqi's First Division and were engaged in an encirclement and suppression battle, which was expected to end in two hours.

In fact, it cannot be blamed that the First Division's combat effectiveness is too weak. Rather, the First Division's garrison areas are relatively scattered. Under a sudden attack, the First Division commander only gathered less than 3,000 men.

The 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the 2nd Regiment on the South Road had already marched urgently to Beishan Pass and repelled three attacks from the 2nd Division. The battlefield entered a stalemate. Without the assistance of artillery, ammunition consumption was large.

The Wenchang Militia, under the command of Jiang Tao, also attacked behind the 27th Brigade. However, due to the large difference in the ratio of veterans to recruits in the militia, the attack was blocked everywhere. However, it also successfully attracted part of the 27th Brigade.

The strength of the troops will slightly reduce the pressure on the headquarters.

The gunfire in the battle outside was still fierce, and the sound of cannons was heard from time to time. At first, because the people of the 27th Brigade were afraid of accidentally injuring Liu Yongqi and the others, they were more restrained. But as the battle became intense, they didn't have much scruples.

"General, the enemy's attack is very fierce, and the first line of defense has collapsed!" After all, we have fewer people than the opponent, and the first front line is too long, which also results in the defensive force not being dense and being quickly broken through by the enemy.

The soldiers who retreated on the front line and the soldiers guarding the second line quickly stabilized their positions. This time, Li Weidong did not repeat the same mistake, and specially asked people to bring some mortars and machine guns. However, because heavy machine guns are inconvenient to carry, they are not easy to smuggle in.

city, so most machine guns are light Czech.

The machine gun roared, and the flying bullets splashed a layer of masonry debris on the wall. During the fierce battle, injured soldiers were constantly being carried off the battlefield.

This time it is true that Li Weidong was a little too confident and underestimated the combat effectiveness of the 27th Brigade.

Li Weidong felt very distressed when he looked at the casualty report. He had saved up these soldiers with great difficulty, and the death of even one would make him feel distressed for a long time.

"Telegraph the First Regiment to leave one battalion to clean the battlefield, and the rest will immediately go south to attack Wenchang!" Li Weidong commanded the telegraph operator to send the report.

The current battlefield development situation is worse than Li Weidong imagined. The 27th Brigade's offensive at all costs has put tremendous pressure on the headquarters. Although the second line of defense is still strong, the consumption of weapons and ammunition is extremely high.

Especially machine gun bullets.

"Niu Meng! Take someone to watch them, and the rest of the guards will follow me!" Instructing Niu Meng to take people to watch the people in the hall, Li Weidong led the guards and walked out of the banquet hall.

At this moment, seeing this situation, Zhang Xiaoyou was about to say something to stop it. But his father said to the side, "Xiaoyou, don't worry, he will sort it out!"

Entering the firing line, you can smell the thick smell of gunpowder smoke in the air. Sometimes, a wave of bullets pours over you, making you unable to lift your head.
