"Woohoo—"

"Boom-"

The nine 75 guns and 12 81 mortars on the instructor's position continued to shell round after round, and the shells that flew over the ruined city walls and fell into the city walls, and the sound of explosions one after another drowned out all the orders and shouts of the Yunnan officers and men.

Groups of Yunnan officers and soldiers who had not had time to escape from the city wall area were engulfed in the flames and smoke of the explosion.

Under the fierce artillery bombardment, the 15th Regiment of the 7th Division of the Yunnan Army, which had suffered heavy casualties, was completely disabled, and the 14th Regiment that had not yet had time to assemble was in a mess, and all the officers and men desperately fled from the east and north of Ganxian County, which was surrounded by smoke and flames, except for the 16th Regiment arranged inside and outside the south gate, which was not harmed, and soon under the leadership of the deputy commander of the 7th Division and the commander of the regiment, it quickly rushed out of the south gate and took the lead in withdrawing to the Yangmei Ferry in the west to set up defenses.

Zheng Yi on Maple Ridge saw through the binoculars that the soldiers and horses of the Yunnan army quickly escaped from the west gate of Ganxian County, and was stunned for a moment before ordering to stop the shelling and launch a charge.

The deputy company commander of the communications company personally ran to the highest point in the rear, waved the command flag, and issued the order to charge the 3rd Regiment on the eastern position and the 2nd Regiment on the northern position.

"Tick tick

The loud trumpets of the charge suddenly sounded on the various positions, and nearly 4,000 soldiers of the two regiments quickly jumped out of the positions, shouted in unison, and rushed to the city in front of them with the smoke of gunpowder.

Zheng Yi saw the Second Regiment rushing westward with a group of men and horses, and immediately shouted loudly to the heralds under the hill: "The Second Regiment can only pursue two kilometers, return to the city immediately, and definitely can't chase to Yangmei Ferry!" ”

"Yes!"

The two heralds immediately waved their whips and rode their horses to charge the soldiers of the 2nd Regiment, who were rapidly pursuing the enemy.

Han Shouren was stunned, put down the binoculars, turned his head sideways and asked, "What's the matter?" Why not chase after the victory? ”

Before Zheng Yi could answer, Zhang Yao on the side had already explained in a low voice: "Wang Jun has always been cautious in using troops, although he was caught off guard by us, but he reacted very quickly and retreated very decisively, our army is a little late to catch up at this time, Wang Jun can completely order the troops to turn around and fight with our army." ”

"Secondly, there are two trenches about four kilometers west of Ganxian County, these two trenches were built when we attacked Ganzhou City more than two months ago, and they are still well preserved, due to the long-term no rain, the drought in southern Gannan, there is no water and mud in the trenches, and the Dian army can occupy the two trenches when they flee there, and counterattack our pursuers."

"Therefore, for the sake of safety, it is better not to pursue, and would rather occupy the county seat to wait for work. Of course, this requires the Dian army to have the courage to turn around and take the initiative to attack us. ”

Han Shouren finally understood, and secretly admired Zheng Yi and Zhang Yao's arrogance and impatience.

Zheng Yi put away the binoculars and added: "There is another reason, there must be no shortage of remnants in the city, and it will take at least half an hour for our two regiments to be wiped out." Once a pursuit is launched, the front cannot be defeated, and the rear is in chaos, and it is easy to turn victory into defeat. Therefore, let's be cautious, the current record is quite good, and we can't be too greedy. ”

Han Shouren nodded frequently: "It's really good, after this battle, the Third Army of the Dian Army has not only completely turned passive, but also its morale has plummeted, and its spirit has lost all its spirit, at least it can't be slowed down in ten days and eight days." ”

Zheng Yi nodded with a smile: "It's almost time, let's enter the county seat of Ganxian County now!" Staff Officer Joe—"

"Here!"

Combat staff officer Qiao Yanning strode forward.

Zheng Yi ordered: "Order the artillery battalion and the baggage battalion to withdraw from their positions and return to Sanjiangkou to rest and stand by." ”

"Yes!"

Qiao Yanning took the order and left.

Han Shouren couldn't figure it out again, looked left and right, and finally his eyes fell on Zheng Yi: "What?" You don't want Ganxian anymore? ”

Zheng Yi smiled and shook his head: "What do I want Ganxian to do?" You see, most of the city walls have collapsed, the people in the city have almost fled, and they are close to Ganzhou City, so they must always guard against the enemy's sneak attack and harassment, it is better to take the initiative to give up, see how Wang Jun responds, whether he has the courage to occupy Ganxian County again, and then wave his army to the east and fight to the death with our army at the mouth of the Sanjiang River. ”

Han Shouren still didn't understand Zheng Yi's deep intentions, how can Ganxian County be said to be a county seat, and the main road of the Ganjiang River, as long as it is stuck here, the entire southern Gan will have no worries, isn't it better than putting the enemy at the mouth of the Sanjiang River to smash his base to pieces?

But seeing that Zheng Yi had already walked down the hill, he didn't have the slightest intention of explaining in detail, and Han Shouren couldn't dwell on it anymore, so he could only follow closely with full doubts.

……

……

The dense gunfire in the city had not stopped, and the explosion of grenades was incessant, and the soldiers of the three regiments, under the leadership of the regiment commander Zhou Bingyao, rushed all the way to the county yamen at the intersection of the streets, only to encounter the desperate resistance of the remaining enemy troops.

"Da Da Da-"

The more than 100 Yunnan troops who occupied the two sandbag fortifications and the street bunkers in front of the county yamen were very tenacious, set up two heavy machine guns, and blocked the charging path of the officers and men of the three regiments.

More than 20 Red officers and men who were in front of the charge fell in a dense rain of bullets, forcing the officers and men of the three regiments to flee into the alleys on both sides, breaking through the closed doors of their houses and hiding in their houses.

The rain of bullets continued to rain, sending sparks and smoke flying on the walls on both sides of the street and the stone street in the middle.

Zhou Bingyao, who was burned by the bullet on the left side of his face, suddenly pushed away the guards who came forward to bandage him, held the Colt pistol in one hand, hooked the corner of the wall with the other, and slowly poked out half of his head, ignoring the blood stains on his face, and roared loudly:

"Pass my order, the brothers in the alley bypass from behind, and the brothers in the house blow up the wall for Lao Tzu, and when they encounter resistance, they will bombard his mother with grenades!"

The company commander next to him immediately shouted loudly at the opposite alley, and then led his brothers to rush into the depths of the alley, attacking the county government compound in front from the flank, while the rest of the brothers repeated Zhou Bingyao's order loudly.

Only then did the brothers, who were overwhelmed by the rain of bullets, remember the tactical essentials of street fighting that they had trained, and immediately took action in accordance with the training they had received in normal times, and took action quickly in squads.

After the rapid progress of the company commander turned into the alley on the left, he found that it was a dead end, and immediately pulled the nearest soldier, drew two grenades from his waist, and rushed to the bottom of the brick wall blocking the way forward.

The commander of the first company immediately stuffed two grenades into it, regardless of pulling the fire cable, turned around and ran in the green smoke of the burning "swoop", and rushed out several meters at the same time as the squad leader who reacted quickly and fell down.

"Boom-"

A loud bang came, the two-meter-high, four-meter-wide brick wall was blown out of a large hole in a radius of one meter, dozens of soldiers did not wait for the smoke to dissipate before they got up and rushed forward, in the falling bricks and dust smoke through the blasted wall hole, over the courtyard of the house next door, rushed to the front of the county government courtyard wall.

"Bomb drop—"

With a loud roar from the company commander, more than 10 grenades flew into the courtyard of the county office, blowing up hundreds of enemy troops hiding in the courtyard to the point of howling wolves.

The commander of the first company, who was tall and long-armed, was still not satisfied, and once again gave the order to drop the bomb, and he also wanted a grenade, and after pulling the flame, he threw it in the direction of the county yamen, which was more than 40 meters away.

The smoke-emitting grenade flew diagonally over more than 40 meters, accurately flew above the sandbag fortifications in front of the county yamen, and exploded in the air.

"Boom-"

The three enemy machine gunners who were shooting frantically in the fortifications were blown into blood gourds, and several Yunnan officers and soldiers who were squatting behind the bunkers at the street entrance and kept firing saw that they were powerless, and immediately threw down their light and heavy machine guns and turned around and ran wildly, but as soon as they ran more than ten meters, they were beaten into a honeycomb by the three regiments of machine gunners who shouted and killed.
