It was dusk, and Cai Shengxi, who was embarrassed and angry, did not believe in evil and forced Yang Chisheng to launch a forcible crossing operation with one of his infantry regiments. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hundreds of small boats and widened bamboo platoons carried the first two battalions of officers and men, and they rowed cautiously to the opposite bank, never encountering any attack.

Cai Shengxi and most of the officers and men suddenly had the courage to think about it for a while, and Cai Shengxi immediately ordered the remaining two regiments to hurry up and establish a beachhead on the opposite bank as soon as possible.

Who knew that the order had not yet reached the division headquarters, and the whistling mortar shells had already flown to the river.

Several small boats were torn apart by the sound of explosions, and the surge provoked by a series of explosions instantly overturned more than a dozen bamboo rows, frightening the enemy into a mess.

What was even worse was that the officers and men of the first regiment of instructors, who had been hiding in the trenches for more than an hour, suddenly stood up and set up more than 30 light and heavy machine guns to fire wildly; the two battalions of enemy troops on the river bank fell in pieces as if they were cutting wheat, and those who were lucky enough to not die jumped into the river in a hurry; most of them were hit by bullets like drops of bullets in a few "poofs," and less than 100 of the nearly 1,000 officers and men escaped alive to the south bank.

After the angry instructor let out a bad breath, he immediately quietly withdrew along the traffic trench on the side of the trench, and Yang Chisheng on the south bank was so distressed that he stomped his feet and swore to the sky that he would never listen to Cai Shengxi's orders again.

Cai Shengxi smashed the marching teacup to no avail, looking at the quiet instructor's position on the north bank, he was helpless, so he could only obey the bitter advice of the deputy division commander and the chief of staff, and ordered the officers and soldiers under his command to withdraw to the position and be on strict alert.

The instructor's barracks in Guangchang City were full of wounded, more than 200 officers and soldiers who died in battle had no time to collect their bodies, up to more than 400 light and serious wounded were in urgent need of treatment, Li Lianshan's regiment was damaged in battle in half a day, many old brothers could not suppress the sadness in their hearts and cried bitterly, Li Lianshan, whose eyes were red and swollen and hoarse, stood in front of Zheng Yi with his head downcast, tearfully asking for punishment.

However, Zheng Yi's words re-summoned everyone's courage:

"Where are the immortals in war? This battle is very special, none of us expected such a situation to happen, and none of us have rich battlefield experience to deal with it correctly, if we really want to be punished, I, the division commander, will be the first to accept the punishment, not the soldiers who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die on the front line! ”

"Here, I hope that all of you will keep these words in mind: Fighting for the party's revolutionary cause, the glory of dying is heavier than Mount Tai, and all our brothers, including our children and grandchildren, will remember it!"

"Secondly, go back and tell all the officers and soldiers that we will not leave any of our wounded comrades, please believe me, I will leave with you safely tonight, and I will take everyone alive!"

"Start preparing now, fill your stomach in half an hour, fill the marching kettle with boiling water, and in an hour, we'll leave here together!"

The officers immediately returned to the divisions, and Li Zhao followed Zheng Yi into the empty division headquarters, and asked very worriedly: "There has been no news from the special service company so far, I don't know if it is going well?" ”

Zheng Yi replied confidently: "Don't worry, it's dark at this time, there is still an hour before the action time, no matter how slow the spy is, he can walk dozens of miles of mountain roads in six hours, and at this time he must have been lurking behind Lai Shicong's department." ”

Li Zhao nodded frequently, and sighed again: "I really admire your courage and resourcefulness, as well as the battlefield you chose, so that the enemy three times as large as me was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and the enemy knew that the position on the north bank of the Huangjiang River was likely to be empty, so he didn't dare to attack again......"

"And our group, just now suffered a big loss, and immediately under your command to pull back exponentially, the brothers' full of anger and resentment were vented in an instant, and the low morale was also puffed up, born handsome!"

Zheng Yi squinted at Li Zhao, who was full of emotion: "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief...... Hey, you don't want to marry my sister to me, do you? ”

Li Zhao was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and puffed his eyes, and replied angrily: "I have three younger sisters, the eldest is only fifteen years old, all of them are like flowers and jade, and they are not yet in the mother-in-law's house. ”

Zheng Yi was shocked: "Teasing you, don't take it seriously, you guy looks so shabby, a face is like a pig's kidney, and it is estimated that your sister is about the same." ”

"Zheng Yi of the dog, you dare to say it again!"

Li Zhao finally got angry, and when he saw Zheng Yi turn around and run out of the gate, he chased out angrily and scolded for a while, but after a while, he laughed.

……

……

At 8:40 p.m., the calm town of Ganzhu was suddenly overwhelmed by the sound of a huge explosion, and the officers and men of the special service company who were ambushed two kilometers north of the town set up six mortars and fired continuously.

Patches of shells blew up the enemy troops in the south and north of the town, wailing and chaotic, and dozens of houses burned like huge torches in the smoke of gunpowder.

The three regiments of Lai Shicong's unprepared unit suffered heavy casualties and were in confusion under the sound of round after round of mortar shells, and for a time the soldiers could not find their officers, and the officers could not call the soldiers, and they inevitably fell into a state of loss of control.

As the shouts of killing from the north and south shook the sky, the sound of hundreds of flower machine guns and more than 100 light machine guns opened fire replaced the rumbling explosions.

The shouts of killing got closer and closer, and the dense rain of bullets knocked down the enemy reflected in the flames, and the terrified surviving enemies scurried around like headless flies, and under the skillful persecution of the north and south departments of the instructor, they frantically fled to the pontoon bridge to the west, and rushed into the camp of Yang Ruxuan's department across the river, which soon caused a larger-scale chaos.

In the end, even Lai Shicong and Yang Ruxuan turned over under the desperate protection of the guards, and took the lead in rushing out of the camp to the north to flee in panic, and more than 100 warriors of the spy company still rushed across the pontoon bridge without stopping, strafing all moving targets.

Half an hour later, Zheng Yi led the follow-up men and horses into Ganzhu Town, and the officers and soldiers of the first regiment and two companies of the teaching regiment escorted the wounded soldiers through the town, and continued to advance north along the west bank of the Fuhe River.

Zheng Yi and all the brothers were taken aback by the final statistics of this battle: more than 720 enemy soldiers were killed and wounded, and the enemy troops who died in the river could not be counted, and more than 200 war horses and pack horses, more than 60 carriages, more than 1,400 long and short guns, 33 light and heavy machine guns, and food and ammunition could not be counted for a while.

In addition, more than 5,000 oceans and 25 small gold bars were found from the baggage that the enemy had no time to take, plus the ocean, rings, watches, pocket watches and other items collected from the corpses of the enemy.

After a three-hour rest, the instructor's various units went north overnight and drove mightily to Nanfeng County, where there was no danger to defend, and when they got there, they saw that there was not a shadow of half of the enemy, the doors of every household were closed, the county government and the large and small barracks were empty, and the so-called puppet police and security regiments had disappeared, and it was estimated that it would take half a day to find one.
