Liu Yimin followed the 1st Battalion. As soon as the 2nd Battalion moved to the new position, the radio station director He Xinghua reported that the enemy division commander Zhang Liangji had called to ask where the 48th Brigade was and what the outcome of the battle was. He answered according to the pre-war deployment. The enemy division commander led the 47th Brigade.
Go forward here.
Liu Yimin asked if the enemy radio operator had been captured. He Xinghua replied that not only had the enemy radio operator been captured, but the operator said that he was an underground party, took out the code book, and actively contacted the enemy radio station. Liu Yimin said that after the battle,
When reporting to the central government, report this situation as well and ask the political department for verification.
Luo Yan also called to report that the scouts who had gone out reported that the enemy troops were found, but the enemy troops were marching at a normal speed. Liu Yimin told He Xinghua to send a message to urge the enemy troops to speed up their actions. He Xinghua agreed and ran back.
Waiting is the most excruciating thing. The soldiers who were already screaming with excitement from the victory just now are looking forward to the 47th Brigade coming to serve the food soon.
The veterans recalled the past when Chairman Mao led everyone to carry out mobile warfare to defeat enemy ambush in the Central Soviet Area, and they felt a sense of victory, honor and heroism.
The feelings of the new soldiers are very complicated. Although the new soldiers who signed up to join the army at the channel have learned shooting in the recruit camp, they have not fired a gun yet. They feel that fighting is so simple. They are anxious to wait for the enemy to shoot and try their skills;
The new soldiers who joined the army in the Passage Security Group have never seen such good weapons and such a big battle. Most of them think that this is a soldier and this is fighting. This is much better than being a member of the regiment holding a fire stick and scaring people.
After talking and complaining, the soldiers who joined the army from the prisoners of war in the Xiangjiang River felt that they had taken the wrong path before, and now it was time to make meritorious deeds.
The cadres, especially the cadres supported by the headquarters, felt that the regiment leader was so amazing. How could he know that the enemy would take this path, and even the troop allocation was clear, as if he was commanding the enemy forces. It's amazing, follow this
Commander, it’s hard not to win the battle.
In fact, the waiting time was not long. Luo Yan reported that the enemy troops had begun a rapid march and were running towards Xiaoshui in three columns. Liu Yimin immediately ordered the signal to prepare for battle, and the entire position fell silent.
Zhang Liangji, the commander of the 16th Hunan Division, should be said to be a professional soldier. He graduated from the third phase of the Baoding Army Officers School and was promoted from platoon commander to company commander. He originally worked as a staff officer in other troops for a long time, but after joining the Hunan Army, he was deeply
In October, he was promoted from the commander of the 46th Brigade to the commander of the 16th Division.
Historically, Zhang Liangji was a complex figure who served in many armies. During the Red Army era, Zhang Liangji followed He Jian and actively participated in the battle against the Red Army. His hands were stained with the blood of Red Army soldiers and he was promoted to division commander. In April 1937, he was promoted to lieutenant general.
He was promoted to deputy commander of the 18th Army of the National Army, and later served as Lieutenant General and Legal Executive Director of the Ninth War Zone. In August 1941, while inspecting war defense projects in Yichun, Jiangxi, he was bombed by Japanese planes and died for his country, which marked the beginning of his military career.
He made the most colorful move. Most young people today are not familiar with him, but when mentioning one person, everyone will immediately have an impression of him, that is the famous political commissar of the railway guerrillas Li Zheng. Zhang Liangji is the prototype of Li Zheng and Wen Lizheng
The martyr's biological uncle.
Zhang Liangji has been in a good mood recently. As soon as he was promoted, he led his troops to participate in the Battle of Xiangjiang River. In Jiaoshanpu, he had an inextricable fight with the First Red Army Corps, the main force of the Red Army. Although the First Red Army Corps completed the task of covering the Red Army's crossing of the river,
The 16th Hunan Division also showed its own prestige. One of its intersecting troops even attacked near the headquarters of the First Red Army. If the reflection of the bayonets hadn't alerted the guards of the First Red Army when the soldiers fixed their bayonets, the outcome of the Battle of Xiangjiang River might have been different.
To rewrite.
Zhang Liangji also admitted in his heart that the Red Army is the bravest army he has ever seen. Especially the Red Army 1st, Red 3rd, and Red 5th Army, which are known as the main force of the Red Army. When the charge horn sounded, they surged up like a tide, completely ignoring the machine guns of the national army.
, a firepower network composed of artillery and aircraft. On the Jiaoshanpu battlefield, it was obviously aircraft and artillery that blew up the Red Army position, but every time when our soldiers rushed to the position, there were always bombs exploding.
The Red Army soldiers crawling out of the void were shooting, dropping bombs, and would rather die than retreat. Each position was repeatedly bombed, attacked, and fought over repeatedly. It could only be taken after all the Red Army guards were killed. The blood of soldiers on both sides was stained red.
Every inch of land in Jiaoshanpu was covered. Fighting with such a brave army, let alone impossible to win, even if we did win, it would be a partial victory.
In the view of Zhang Liangji, who has a professional background, the Red Army commanders are also very clever in tactical command. As long as he shows a slight flaw, the Red Army will immediately retaliate and make him drip with blood.
However, time, luck, and momentum mean that no matter how brave the infantry is, they are no match for aircraft and artillery. What’s more, the Red Army after the Xiangjiang War was almost a beggar army. I heard that there were many deserters during the Xiangjiang Battle.
Will the current Red Army be almost defeated?
Looking back at our own 16th Division, due to its good performance in the Xiangjiang Battle, troop casualties were quickly replenished, and logistics supplies were sufficient. All three brigades added mortar companies, each regiment added a heavy machine gun company, and each infantry company added
There are three light machine guns, and all officers above the platoon leader are equipped with brand-new 20-shot rifles that can fire continuously. The squad leaders and divisional security companies are all equipped with fancy tricks. Commander Liu Zhanxu even handed over the 28th Army Artillery Battalion to his command.
You know, this is all the mountain artillery in the Hunan Army system, which shows that Shangfeng attaches great importance to the combat effectiveness of the 16th Division.
For more than ten days after the Battle of Xiangjiang, he led the 16th Division to chase the Red Army. Although Chairman He Jian repeatedly asked to be one day's journey away from the main force of the Red Army, Commander Liu Jianxu also repeatedly warned to be careful of the Red Army's sneak attack, and he did
They were very careful, with forwards, rearguards, flanks, and protection all in place, and always kept in contact with the Red Army without over-pressuring them. However, after pursuing them all the way, the results were still considerable. Although the results were not as great as in the Battle of Xiangjiang, at least the 16th Division had always been
Having the upper hand. Unexpectedly, early this morning, I received an order from the General Suppressor to pursue the Red Army, and I also received a report from the forward position that the Red Army had escaped.
Run? Where to run? Can you run? The big net set by the Generalissimo is enough to trap the defeated Red Army remnants who are short of food, clothing, guns and ammunition. There is a dead end wherever you go. It is a death anyway, why not give it to the 16th Division?
How much more brilliance can be added to the record?
Fortunately, I acted quickly. After receiving the order, I ordered the 48th Brigade to pursue. I led the 47th Brigade to respond, and the 46th Brigade protected the baggage and followed up. Just now, the forward company of the 47th Brigade reported that there seemed to be fierce gunfire in the direction of Xiaoshui, and sent a message to ask the 48th Brigade.
It was said that they encountered a rear guard group of the Communist Army, which had been defeated and was being pursued. They also requested the division headquarters and the 47th Brigade to follow up quickly and serve as reinforcements.
It is necessary to speed up the march, lest the 48th Brigade encounter the main force of the Red Army and suffer a loss. Winning a battle these days will naturally bring rewards, but losing a battle will be miserable. The eyes on Chairman Chiang’s bald head are not white. They are better than those of Chairman He.
The eyes are much more fierce.
Thinking of this, Zhang Liangji said to the chief of staff beside him: "Instruct the 46th Brigade to speed up and keep up with the main force." He then said to the 47th Brigade Commander Cheng Tiexia: "Commander Cheng, the 48th Brigade is fighting fiercely with the enemy. We have
The artillery battalion must move forward quickly to provide fire support for the 48th Brigade. The marching speed is not good at this speed, so we must run forward." Cheng Tiexia immediately said to the adjutant: "The commander ordered, the whole brigade is running forward." The enemy 47th Brigade immediately rushed forward.
People shouted and horses yelled. After a brief confusion, they formed three columns and ran forward.
The commander of the enemy's forward company is a veteran and has participated in countless battles. During the Northern Expedition, he followed He Jian to attack the Beiyang Army. He is a very senior grassroots officer in the Hunan Army. Unfortunately, he is illiterate and cannot get into He Jian's eyes.
, otherwise in He Jian's snowball-like rapid development, he would have been promoted to brigade commander long ago. His official position has not been promoted, but his rich combat experience is real. Although he is running forward now,
But he never relaxed his vigilance. For some reason, he always felt that there was a pair of eyes watching him from the top of the mountain beside the road. This feeling was very wrong and seemed to be a warning sign. He originally wanted the troops to stop and go up the mountain.
I reported my thoughts, but as soon as I turned a corner, I saw how peaceful the small water village in the distance was, and I felt that I was being too worried. Just as I was about to continue running, I suddenly smelled a trace of blood in my nose. Yes, it was the smell of blood.
It was the bloody smell when thousands of soldiers died during the Great War in the Central Plains. The enemy company commander did not hesitate and immediately shouted: "Stop advancing." As soon as the words came out, he heard a gunshot, and his head trembled.
I don’t know anymore.
Zhang Liangji rolled off his horse when the first shot was fired and took out his pistol. The guards around him were not so lucky. They were all shot through the head by bullets. Their white brains mixed with blood and sprayed out.
Zhang Liangji's war horse is as disgusting as it can be.
Zhang Liangji hid behind his horse and looked to the opposite side. He didn't know when a long heavy machine gun stretched out from the forest on the opposite side. The muzzle of the gun was spitting tongues of fire at his 47th Brigade. Hearing the sound of gunfire, there were countless Czech light machine guns and
The submachine guns were firing. What kind of unit of the Red Army was this? The firepower was so powerful. Just when he was about to call the messenger to order the troops to lie down on the spot, he heard a "hissing" sound coming from above his head. He knew that it was a group of grenades about to
The sound of falling.
It's over, I'm done, the 47th Brigade is over, the previous 48th Brigade must be over too, that damn telegram sent by the 48th Brigade urging me to speed up the march must be the masterpiece of the Red Army after they captured the radio operator of the 48th Brigade, damn the operator
, Damn the 48th Brigade, he was dead, and he was holding himself back. Zhang Liangji was regretful and angry, and he raised his pistol and was about to shoot in the opposite direction. A piece of shrapnel flew and hit his wrist, and the pistol fell to the ground.
A Hunan Army soldier had just taken off his gun and before he turned on the safety, he heard the sound of "Puff, Puff, Puff" ringing around him. He knew that it was the sound of machine gun bullets entering the human body. Looking around,
There was no one standing around him anymore, so he screamed "Oh my God" and ran towards the flat ground beside the road. Suddenly, he stumbled and fell to the ground on his back, staring at the sky with his empty eyes.
