Chapter 315: A Great Victory (Part 5)
At this moment, the Longmen Mountain position has been shrouded in the thick smoke of gunpowder, a deafening explosion sound continued, the fierce burning flames wrapped in clusters of gunpowder smoke rose into the sky, broken wood, mud and stump fragments flew all over the sky, and the Longmen Mountain behind the position could no longer see a shadow.

In the middle of the two-kilometer-long position, bombarded by dozens of high-powered flying thunder bombs, all the trenches and fortifications within 500 meters were wiped out, and none of the thousands of defenders survived.
Fragments of tattered uniforms, broken limbs, and mutilated corpses, baked by the hot air, were scattered along the edges of the massive craters of explosions, spitting with smoke.
The areas on both sides of the trenches, which had been repeatedly bombarded, were equally miserable.
The flames ignited the timber and grass huts in front of the two positions, and the vegetation at the foot of the mountain behind was more than 100 meters wide and ignited a raging fire, and hundreds of defending officers and soldiers were stunned by the strong shock wave, and many people with ruptured eardrums and sluggish expressions.
The rest of the officers and soldiers who survived threw down their weapons one after another, wailed and screamed amid the loud explosions and dense gunfire, and fled in horror and frantically from this bloody hell.
When Wang Huchen ordered the trumpet to be sounded, the enemy's two-kilometer-long position had no enemy to resist except for corpses and wounded who could not move, and discarded weapons, ammunition, and various tools were everywhere.
At the same time, the troops on the northern front under the command of Li Lianshan used their fierce firepower and flexible outflanking tactics to the extreme, and it only took half an hour to break through the defense line carefully constructed by one regiment of the enemy.
The instructors and instructors who temporarily assisted in the war were all excellent backbones drawn from the main regiments, and almost stepped on the landing points of round after round of mortar shells, smashed into the enemy's positions, skillfully used the superior firepower of a large number of light machine guns, flower machine guns, and shell guns with butts attached to them, tore open a large gap, and fired mercilessly at all moving targets.
The assault force crashed headlong into the enemy headquarters at the rear of the position, and together with the outflanked brothers of the 4th Regiment and 1st Battalion, they launched a devastating blow against the stubborn remnants of the enemy, and then joined forces and quickly rushed towards Longyan City.
There was already chaos in Longyan City.
The 2,000 defenders at the head of the city had already been frightened by the tragic situation of the Longmen Mountain position outside the city, and when they saw hundreds of frightened brothers fleeing into the city in a hurry, they looked at each other, and they all scattered in a hurry, and rushed down the city as if they were flying, rushing for their lives.
In the confusion, I don't know who shouted, "The division has escaped from the east gate," and the officers and soldiers crowded inside and outside the west gate scattered in a blink of an eye, and the whole city fell into great chaos inside and outside.
The landlords and wealthy gentry, who had long been ready to flee from this place, could no longer care about the ban issued by Zhang Guohui before, and took their wives and children, carrying gold and silver on their backs, pouring out of their homes and flocking to the west gate and the south gate from all directions.
The panicked routs and hooligans took the opportunity to rob houses and houses, robbing everywhere, and the chaotic gunfire of "crackling" came and went, and for a time the whole city wailed, and the cries were earth-shattering.
The earth-shattering roar soon came, and the soldiers of the five regiments led by Duan Xuan personally rushed into the west gate of Longyan with an unstoppable momentum, and quickly took the company as a unit to kill the enemy headquarters, military camps, and grain depots in the city.
The officers and men of the 2nd Regiment led by Huang Guoxing went around the south gate, set up more than a dozen machine guns, and fired fiercely at the enemy soldiers and horses who rushed out of the city gate, knocking down more than 200 fleeing enemy soldiers and more than 20 war horses in a blink of an eye.
More than a dozen nurses and four fully loaded wagons of two large households were also blown to the ground by grenades.
"The police company and the machine gun company opened the way, blowing the trumpet—"
With Huang Guoxing's order, the loud trumpet suddenly sounded.
The well-equipped officers of the police company and the brothers of the machine gun company with light machine guns in their arms crossed out of the crowd, fought into the city gates, and fired wildly at the countless routs who turned and fled, and in the blink of an eye, they opened a bloody road.
The soldiers of the three infantry battalions shouted in unison, followed closely behind, rushed into the city gate where the corpses were strewn and blood flowed, and successfully entered the wide Chengnan Street, and then under the command of Huang Guoxing, the soldiers divided into two roads and rushed to the county government and the west gate of the city in the city.
……
……
At ten o'clock in the morning, the sporadic gunfire finally stopped, and the entire Longyan City returned to calm under the strict control of the instructor soldiers.
The officers and men of the 19th Division of the Red Seventh Army, the former 1st Division, who served as the reserve, began to collect the corpses, and more than 700 local young men and women brought clean water under the supervision of the patrol team to wash away the bloodstains everywhere, and more than 2,700 enemy deserters who had been arrested from the houses were escorted out of the city and went to the Longmen Mountain position to dig a pit and bury the corpses.
The enemy's headquarters in Shijing Lane in the middle of the city is heavily guarded.
Above the majestic and thick gate, a flaming red sickle and hammer banner fluttered high, and more than 30 enemy officers who had not had time to escape squatted in the courtyard to be interrogated, and the wounded brothers from various units participating in the war were continuously sent to the spacious backyard in a quiet environment to receive emergency treatment from military doctors and health soldiers.
In the war room on the west side of the main hall, Wang Huchen, the neatly dressed commander of the Second Division, happily posted a large number of large maps on the wall, and eight regimental commanders, including Huang Guoxing, Li Lianshan, and Duan Xuan, and the political commissar of the regiment, gathered together happily to make fun of each other.
It wasn't until the staff officers brought in the statistics of the results that everyone walked to the wide rectangular conference table and sat down one after another.
After reading the two-page statistics of the results, Wang Huchen nodded slightly, came to the first place from the map, sat down, looked around, and said with a smile:
"All the regiments fought well, and the most important thing to celebrate is that the battle losses of the various units were at least half less than expected, which is a remarkable achievement, and after the meeting, I immediately called the former enemy command and asked the commander-in-chief for credit."
The brothers laughed, and Duan Xuan said unwillingly: "It's a pity that Zhang Guohui's kid escaped...... After receiving a report from my brothers, I learned that this grandson had sent his family and seven wagons of money to Xiamen half a month ago. ”
Huang Guoxing waved his hand disappreciatively: "It's okay, just run, the legs are on others, and we have already been mentally prepared to slip away, even if we want to stay, we are powerless!" Besides, if he stays, our sacrifice will increase by at least 20%, which is not the same thing as having someone in command and not being in command. ”
"In addition, Lianshan's harvest this time is really not small, he is much smarter than the two of us, he is not in a hurry to attack the north gate, but set up an encirclement at the stone arch bridgehead one kilometer away from the north gate, and made dumplings for thousands of enemy troops and dozens of landlords who escaped from the north gate without knowing the truth."
"This time, the fourth regiment captured thousands of prisoners almost without bloodshed, seized hundreds of war horses, more than 800 long and short spears and more than 20 carriages of money and materials, and seized twice as many oceans and gold bars as on my side, if you don't accept it, you can't accept it!"
The brothers laughed again and joked to Li Lianshan.
Li Lianshan pouted with his head held high, pretending to be calm and disdainful of money, which soon attracted a burst of laughter and scolding from the brothers.
