Chapter 887: Recovering Jingzhou (4)
Under this offensive, the woods gradually fell into flames.
The enemy army inside will either attack forward or retreat.
Between the two, they chose the latter.
And this choice is also doomed to their failure.
"General Xu, the enemy has retreated, let's prepare to attack too." Sun Yundao.
"Okay."
Xu Chu held the heavy machine gun and shouted: "Brothers, it's time for us to make a move, all rush with me!" ”
"Kill..."
Xu Chu took the strength of four regiments and rushed towards the opposite side.
Of these four regiments, two regiments are Tai Shici's and two regiments are Xu Chu's. After several hours of fierce fighting, more than half of the casualties had been lost, but the sound of artillery just now made the soldiers full of confidence.
They followed Xu Chu and ran quickly to the battlefield.
Sun Yun did not hesitate for a moment, and ordered the whole line to attack.
Tens of thousands of troops pressed towards the enemy.
The momentum is like thunder, unstoppable.
.........
After a fierce battle for half a day, Sun Yun and Xu Chu cooperated with each other and played extraordinarily. In only half a day, the enemy army was routed. And make a detour of the rear road to surround the enemy army.
"Hahaha..." Xu Chu smiled happily: "General Sun, this battle is really happy. ”
"The general is brave."
"Where, where..." Xu Chu knew in his heart that the main reason for this victory was Sun Yun's artillery and strong troops. Otherwise, in the face of six or seven thousand enemy troops, he would be helpless.
"Now that the enemy is no longer capable of resisting, we will rush another wave and annihilate it in one fell swoop."
"No, no... General, don't worry. Sun Yun sent someone to fetch a brocade box and said: "Before the end of the future, Your Majesty has instructed that for the remnants of the enemy army, there is no need to fight, as long as the brocade box is sent over, and the enemy army will be in chaos." When the time comes, we will surrender again, and we will be able to win without a fight. ”
"What's in there? How powerful is it? ”
"The head of the enemy general Ali Zhuo!" Sun Yun smiled and sent a messenger to send the brocade box to the opposite side.
"Ugh...."
"Why did the general sigh?"
Xu Chu smiled bitterly: "The enemy army that is fighting with us is so tenacious, will they be afraid to fight because of Ali Zhuo's head?" I think you're trying in vain. ”
"Whether it will be cowardly and surrender will only be known after trying."
Sun Yun still has a glimmer of hope.
Comparing his heart to his heart, if Xu Ding dies and the head is sent to him, he will also lose the ability to resist. Perhaps, most of the generals of Huaxia will choose to cut themselves and some surrender. How could the Western Shang Empire be an exception?
After the brocade box is sent away.
Xu Chu and Sun Yun ordered their troops to stand by in place.
Waited about two quarters of an hour.
A general was sent from the opposite side to negotiate with Sun Yun.
"Contemptible Zangzang, meet the two generals." Zang Zang walked in front of him and made a big salute.
"Without further ado, do you see the human head?" Xu Chu asked.
"See."
"What are you going to do?" Xu Chu is ready, as long as the other party says half a word, he will be broken into thousands of pieces, and he will take a good breath of evil in his heart.
Who let the Western Shang Empire have so many artillery pieces and blow him up enough, if Sun Yun hadn't arrived, he would have lost his life now.
But...
Since Zangzang has come here, it means that he has the intention of surrendering, and he came here to discuss the surrender with Sun Yun. Xu Chu was destined to be disappointed.
Zang Zang arched his hand and said: "Back to the two generals, our division commander has decided not to resist anymore and submit to your country, I only hope that your country can treat our prisoners well." ”
"Humph!"
Xu Chu snorted.
Sun Yun laughed and said, "Okay, you have this awareness, it's very good." Please go back and tell your division commander that I, Huaxia Country, have always treated prisoners well, and as long as you are willing to lay down your arms, we will treat them like guests from afar. Your life will be carefree. ”
Sun Yun is right.
The captives who surrendered to Huaxia were treated kindly.
They had a special place in Xuchang, and the food was the same as that of the ordinary army.
This is unthinkable in any country.
"Okay, I'll get it down to me." The messenger returned the way he came.
In the blink of an eye.
Another half hour passed.
The enemy soldiers who were trapped on the battlefield all laid down their weapons, held their heads in their hands, and walked out.
Sun Yun carefully observed with a telescope.
Those who came out not only did not carry firearms, but also threw the grenades on their waists.
This is enough to show that they are sincere in surrendering.
"General Xu, these prisoners, please escort them back to Nanchang." Sun Yundao.
"Good. What about you? ”
"I have to go to General Tai Shici. According to the scouts, there are 50,000 troops rushing to attack the mountain pass, and if I don't go to support again, I'm afraid that General Tai Shici won't be able to hold out for long. Once we are breached, we will all be in danger. ”
Xu Chu arched his hand and said, "Go to the general, leave it to me here." ”
"Thank you."
Sun Yun left with his troops.
At this time.
At the mountain pass.
Tai Shi Ci is leading the troops in a bloody battle.
The more than 15,000 soldiers under his command were divided into combat units, battle supervision troops, and reserve units. The bloody battle has been fought for more than three hours, with more than 2,000 casualties.
The cost is enormous.
Even Tai Shici didn't expect that the enemy's offensive would be so fierce.
Without reinforcements, he couldn't even hold it for a night.
"Report..." A personal guard ran over: "General, our reinforcements have arrived." ”
"Where? How many? Who is the future of the commander? ”
Tai Shici turned around in surprise and asked.
Like Xu Chu, he didn't expect that reinforcements would come so quickly.
Especially Tai Shici, he thought carefully that even if there were reinforcements, he would support Xu Chu first. At least tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it will be possible to take care of him.
But now, only a few hours away, reinforcements have arrived.
"General Hui, it's Commander Sun Yun, who came to support with his headquarters." The guards returned.
"Great, take me there."
Tai Shi Ci rushed to the rear army.
Sun Yun's division is 10,000 people.
For the current situation of the war, it is too helpful.
When Tai Shici saw Sun Yun, he thanked him vigorously, and when he learned that the war in Xu Chu had ended, he was even more ecstatic: "Great, we have won both the east and west." Now there are only tens of thousands of enemy troops in front of them, and they are still resisting to the death. We will concentrate our forces and engage them, and in less than two days we will be victorious. ”
"Your Majesty ordered me to come first to support the general. I think at most tomorrow at noon, reinforcements will arrive. Sun Yundao.
"Okay..."
Tai Shici took Sun Yun and arrived at the front line.
Through the telescope, you can clearly see the battle situation outside the mountain pass.
I saw that the enemy's forces, very strong, as if crazy, organized a large-scale charge, and almost broke through the mountain pass several times.
Tai Shi Ci sighed: "This group of enemies is simply crazy. In just a few hours, seven group charges were launched against my position, and if I had not been prepared, the position would have been lost long ago. ”
Sun Yun said: "Obviously, they are worried that the army on this side of the mountain will be eaten by us, and they are in a hurry to fight and rendezvous. ”
"That's right."
"But they don't know that all the enemy troops on the Nanchang side have been eaten by us." Sun Yun chuckled.
"I have a suggestion for General Sun to consider."
"Command, General." In front of Tai Shici, Sun Yun still has to be one step lower. According to the official rank, Tai Shici was the commander of the column and had three divisions under him. And he, just a division commander. Although it is not under the control of Tai Shi Ci, in terms of official positions, it is inferior to Tai Shi Ci.
"I want to put the enemy in and fight again. Let them feel that this mountain pass is about to break through, but it can't be broken. The intention was to lure more troops of the enemy in, and then give Yu Thunder a blow. ”
"General, this..." Sun Yun said worriedly: "We can resist the enemy army, all because of this mountain pass, if we let them in, we will not have an advantage, in case..." ”
"Worried about what? Isn't there you? Tai Shi Ci chuckled and said: "I fought with the enemy outside the mountain pass before, I was really worried, guarding the mountain pass, and I didn't dare to give in an inch. But you are here, and I have an extra division of troops, and my strength has increased greatly. Moreover, the enemy does not know that I have such a large number of troops. Once they enter the pass, we will concentrate our firepower and we will definitely reap miraculous results. ”
"Now that the general has decided, the last general will go to arrange it?"
"Go ahead."
Tai Shi Ci waved his hand.
After Sun Yun left.
He also ordered his troops to prepare to cooperate with Sun Yun in battle.
..........
Half an hour later.
Everything is ready.
It was at this moment that the enemy organized another massive charge.
This charge mobilized more than 6,000 people, enough for two brigades. This is the one that has used the most troops and charged since the battle with Tai Shici.
Tai Shici was not in a hurry but rejoiced, and said in his heart: "It's finally here..." ”
If the enemy does not act, he is ready to act on his own.
Try to lure the enemy troops.
Now everything is saved.
The enemy came with two brigades, and with his military strength and Sun Yun's cooperation, he could eat the opponent's forces in a very short time.
That's not bad news for him.
It's good news.
"The order goes down, and the battalions are ready. Resist with all your might, kill as many as you can, and try to block the enemy as much as possible. If we can't stop it, we will retreat inside, and let our mountain artillery battalion be ready to break off. Once these two brigades of the enemy enter, the enemy will send heavy reinforcements, and our mountain artillery battalion must block the enemy's main force and give us time to eat these two brigades. ”
Tai Shi Ci had several regiment leaders behind him.
"Yes..."
"Please rest assured, general, if the enemy dares to come in, he will definitely die!" Several regiment commanders were full of confidence.
"Okay, let's all go to you."
"Yes."
The regimental commanders split up.
Bang bang bang...
The enemy's assault troops, soon arrived on the battlefield.
They rushed like a pack of mad cows.
The first machine-gun battalion was extremely firepowered.
Tai Shi Ci tried his best to resist, although he could barely block it, but he also had to pay a big price.
However, in order to destroy the enemy's living force as much as possible, and to win a relatively good situation for the next battle, Tai Shici ordered to resist desperately.
Even if you want to withdraw, you have to withdraw when you can't stand it.
First, it can confuse the enemy army and make them not suspicious.
Second, it can destroy more of the enemy's military power.
Because there is still a difference between attacking a tough battle and defending a battle. The casualties paid by the attacking side are far greater than those of the defending side.
Bang bang bang...
The fighting continues.
Both sides pulled out all their might.
On the slope outside the mountain pass, a bloody battle lasted for an hour.
In the end, Tai Shi Ci couldn't stop it.
Perhaps it was the troops guarding the mountain who had a fluke mentality and felt that they were going to let the enemy in anyway, so they simply didn't do their best. As a result, the mountain pass was lost.
Although most of the enemy's two brigades suffered casualties, they still had the strength to fight.
They rushed into the mountain pass and struck inside.
At the same time, reinforcements from the enemy, crunched. There are probably two divisions of troops.
If this force is allowed to enter the mountain pass, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Because Sun Yun's troops could not eat two divisions of the enemy. If the enemy army is not successfully defeated, all the troops in the enemy's rear will be pressed up, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Tai Shi Ci immediately shouted: "Open fire on me and block the enemy reinforcements!" ”
Boom boom...
Tai Shici's mountain artillery battalion was bombarded violently outside the mountain pass.
The enemy's reinforcements, before they could enter the pass, suffered heavy casualties. Blocked outside the mountain, unable to advance. What's more, their mechanical troops, unable to pass through the pipes and unable to go backwards, are directly paralyzed there.
Tai Shici's eyes were shining, staring at those cars and artillery.
These things are the magic weapons of the enemy.
It is a must-have for the enemy's mobile warfare.
They must not be allowed to be transported back.
Tai Shi Ci repeatedly told the mountain artillery battalion: "Run to the bottom, and fight to the death to block the enemy!" ”
Boom boom...
The sound of artillery continued.
It's even more powerful.
The enemy's assault troops had all entered the mountain pass, but the troops in charge of reinforcements had retreated because of the heavy shelling, and it was difficult to advance an inch.
In this way, the enemy was divided into two parts.
"Good!"
Seeing this, Tai Shici was finally relieved.
As soon as the enemy retreats, the troops that enter the mountain pass will be dead.
"Tell Sun Yun that I have led the enemy into the mountain pass, and it will be up to him next. He has a division, 10,000 troops, and has been laid out in advance, and if he can't take the remnants of the enemy's two brigades, he, the division commander, will not have to be the commander. Tai Shi Ci said to a personal guard behind him.
"Yes."
The guards rushed to deliver the message.
Immediately afterward, Tai Shi Ci continued to be responsible for holding back the enemy's reinforcements.
The enemy troops in charge of reinforcements probably also knew about Tai Shici and Sun Yun's plan, and they were worried that the two brigades that broke through to the mountain pass would be eaten by the Huaxia National Army, and they were even more reluctant to give up the opportunity to break through the mountain pass. Therefore, they reorganized their formation, concentrated the main forces of the two divisions, and continued to attack and kill inside the mountain pass.
At this moment, they all turned into storming troops, the same as the previous stormtrooping troops. Firepower is equipped, quite complete.
"Not good!"
Tai Shi Ci sensed that the enemy was going to forcibly attack the mountain pass.
Faced with two brigades before, they didn't hold out for long.
Now in the face of two divisions, and the other side has strong fire support, he will definitely not be able to hold on.
In case of losing the ground and letting the 20,000 enemy troops break through, then Sun Yun will be in danger.
Tai Shi Ci hurriedly shouted: "General Chuanben's order, the soldiers of each battalion must fight to the death and live and die with the mountain pass." Whoever dares to take a step back will be killed! ”
"Drop our grenades, artillery, and heavy machine guns and attack them outside the pass. Do whatever it takes to stop the enemy and enter the mountain pass! ”
.........
Tai Shi Ci gave the death order.
