Under the big tree by the stream, Zheng Yi was holding a big bowl and eating with relish. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing that Han Zixu and Kevin were still looking at the direction where the gunshots came from, Zheng Yi thought for a while and explained kindly: "Two, please sit down and eat with peace of mind." ”

"The place of the exchange of fire was at least 1.5 kilometres away and could be easily identified from the gunfire...... It was the Bergman machine guns and Mauser rifles that our officers and men were equipped with that they were fired, which showed that our troops occupied the absolute top, and the enemy could not even open fire, and the battle was over. ”

"It is estimated that in half an hour, we will be able to see the enemy scouts captured by our troops."

"Really?"

Han Zixu glanced at Zheng Yi in surprise and sat down in disbelief.

Kevin shook his head and sat down to continue eating, but the indifferent Luo Dongyuan believed in his master's judgment, and unceremoniously ate a lot, and praised the taste of the braised pangolin while eating, it didn't smell earthy at all, and it tasted very much like yellow meat.

Sure enough, in less than 20 minutes, more than 50 soldiers from the three regiments of police returned on horseback, and six of them brought nine prisoners who were tied up and tied to horses by five flowers.

Then Han Zixu and the three of them heard the company commander of the team report to Duan Xuan, the commander of the third regiment, that in the short exchange of fire just now, they had captured more than 20 long and short guns, and the six detachments of the special service company were still chasing and killing the small units of the enemy who had escaped.

Han Zixu was completely shocked, staring blankly at the nine captives who were taken across the west bank of the creek for interrogation, and after a while, he turned his head and asked Zheng Yi, who was wiping his mouth, for advice:

"General, how do you know that your men will be able to bring back the prisoners?"

Zheng Yi laughed proudly: "Because my subordinates are the best soldiers in all the Chinese armies at the moment, I have extremely strong confidence in them!" ”

"Okay, let's eat, take a hot shower after eating, if you don't take a bath, at least burn your feet, otherwise you won't last a few days, Panyan-"

"Here!"

Pan Yan, who was eating at another table with Lao Meng, strode over.

"Go get a few jugs of wine and two cigarettes and give them to Camp Commander Tian, they will set off later, and I am afraid they will not be able to sleep until dawn tomorrow." Zheng Yi commanded.

Pan Yan grinned: "Don't worry, I've been ready for a long time, I'll do it right away." ”

……

……

At 6:30 p.m., all the officers and men of the three regiments assembled.

Zheng Yi shook hands and said goodbye to the instructor Wang Huchen, chief of staff, Duan Xuan, the head of the third regiment, Li Liangde, the deputy head of the regiment, and Qin Baijun, the political commissar of the regiment, who were about to go to Ruijin, and then Zheng Yi led Han Zixu and the three of them to ride to the Qingshan position in the east.

In the evening battle, the brothers of the second company of special agents, who killed 22 enemies and captured 14 enemies, stayed in place and continued to eat, covering the flank of the Qingshan position to prevent a sneak attack by a small group of enemy troops.

Zheng Yi, accompanied by Huang Guoxing, commander of the Fifth Regiment, and Zhang Shounian, political commissar, climbed the regimental command post set up on a col in the middle of Qingshan.

Han Zixu and Kevin, who were following behind Zheng Yi, were already tired and sweaty and out of breath at this time, but Luo Dongyuan, who seemed to be thin and weak, was calm.

"Boom-"

Before Han Zixu's heavy breathing calmed down, he heard several violent explosions in the eastern sky, he quickly turned around, stared into the distance, and immediately found that several thick black gunpowder smoke rose in the east direction of the capital, and the flames generated by the explosion of the cannonballs instantly illuminated the gray city.

Immediately afterward, the position at the foot of the green mountain suddenly heard the sound of crane gun shooting.

"Da Da Da-"

The dense rain of bullets shot up and down the city wall one point eight kilometers ahead, and although it was impossible to see whether it had hit the target on the city's head, everyone on the col could hear the bells and hoarse shouts of the city, and vaguely see the hazy figures shaking on the city's head and the light of shooting back.

Five minutes later, the gunfire at the foot of the green mountain gradually stopped, and the strong southeast wind swept the pungent gunpowder smoke up the mountain col, Zheng Yi had already put down the binoculars and sat cross-legged on the big stone slab with Huang Guoxing, the head of the fifth regiment, smoking and chatting.

A platoon of guard officers and soldiers had already been distributed on the high ground in front of the front and left, but Zheng Yi's guard Pan Yan sat in front of the big stone slab, wiping two 38 rifles.

"That's the end of it?"

Kevin looked left and right, and then lowered his voice to ask Han Zixu.

Han Zixu thought for a while, and pondered: "It is estimated that it is a fire test, before dinner, the general's two companies defeated the reconnaissance team sent by the defenders in the city, at this time night has just fallen, and suddenly in the east and west directions, at the same time to carry out five minutes of artillery bombardment and machine gun fire on the defenders in the city, which will inevitably cause the defenders in the city to be nervous, and even produce serious panic." ”

"Now at this time, the defenders will definitely launch a counterattack at all costs, whether they can hit people or not, at least they can reduce the anxiety in their hearts, and at the same time they can find out the distribution of the various firepower points of the defenders in the city, and find out the distribution of the defenders' troops, which is very beneficial to the general and his officers and soldiers."

Kevin looked at Yu Ducheng, which looked like a monster lying in the deeper and deeper night, and still found it difficult to understand: "Aren't there more than 4,000 defenders in the city?" Why don't you dare to go out of the city to fight? ”

Han Zixu looked at Zheng Yi, who was chatting in a low voice with his subordinates more than ten meters away: "At dinner, I was also thinking about this question, why didn't the defenders of more than 4,000 people in the city take the initiative to attack the opponent who occupied the Sanjiangkou in the east or the foot of the green mountain in the west?" ”

"There is a fortified city between these two directions, far from each other, each with a regiment of about 1,700 officers and soldiers, from the comparative analysis of the strength, the defenders in the city obviously have an advantage, as long as they dare to attack either side, even if they cannot be defeated, and then retreat to the city, they can also boost the morale of the army and produce good results."

"But just now I saw the general's two regiments launch a five-minute artillery bombardment and machine-gun fire from the east and west, while the defenders in the city just shot back in an orderly manner, although the fire was fierce, but it was too busy, and many of them even fired directly into the sky, I realized that the defenders in the city had completely lost their courage, and they did not dare to come out to fight General Zheng Yi's army, so they could only passively defend behind the strong city walls."

Kevin suddenly realized: "I see! It seems that the defenders in the city were indeed frightened by the majesty of the general, and General Zheng Yi and his army fought one fortified city after another, and even General Yang Chisheng, who was the strongest in the surrounding area, was defeated by him and had to retreat to Ganzhou and no longer take the initiative to fight......"

"And the defenders in the capital are all local troops with backward equipment and lack military training, and the nominal security regiment is only about 1,000 people at most, so it is not surprising that they do not have the courage to fight the brave and fearless army of General Zheng Yi, who has won consecutive victories."

"The situation in all aspects has created a passive situation in which the defenders have the advantage of strength but are surrounded on both sides, and from this analysis, General Zheng Yi will soon be victorious again."

Han Zixu nodded frequently, and sighed with great emotion: "The more contact, the greater the shock that General Zheng Yi brought me, and his mind and vision were even higher than I imagined." ”

"In terms of this battle alone, the reason why General Zheng Yi led his troops to besiege Yudu but did not launch a substantive attack was not only the ultimate goal of Yudu, Ruijin and Huichang in the east had already been in his calculations."

"If my speculation is correct, he will not command the officers and soldiers of the two regiments to attack the capital within three days, and the third regiment and two elite companies that have just bypassed the south of the city and headed for Ruijin under the cover of night are likely to successfully occupy the empty county town of Ruijin tomorrow night or the morning after tomorrow."

"Next is the county town of Huichang south of Ruijin, and the time interval should be four to five days. As long as these two county towns are captured, the defenders in the capital will inevitably be in great chaos, because there are two security regiments from Ruijin and Huichang, and even their own homes are gone, where is the determination and courage to fight? ”

Zheng Yi didn't have time to pay attention to the whispering Han Zixu and Kevin, and after making a plan with Huang Guoxing and Zhang Shounian to take turns to rest and keep harassing, he ordered Pan Yan to inform the commander of the second company of the special agent and send a detachment to send the radio team up the mountain.
