Chapter 320: The guard battalion was ambushed, and defeat turned into victory

For Li Cunxiao and Li Yuanba, money and status are not important. The important thing is to deter the reputation of the world and the pleasure of killing the enemy, and to be able to defeat thousands of troops and surrender in order to reflect their strength.

The 11th and 12th regiments crossed the valley and accelerated their march to the Jiangfang battalion, which was two hundred miles away.

Zhuge Liang mobilized a large army and continued to chase and encircle. And sent an order to the troops stationed in Wuchang City and the troops of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to turn the spearhead, first exterminate Xu Shu, and capture the new army under Xu Shu.

In this way, Ganning's Jiangfang Yingshui Village has greatly reduced the pressure.

Next.

On the official road between Tianma Peak and Yuping Peak, Wei Yan's army was attacked by Ma Dai.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Whoosh...

The road ahead was interrupted and there were many deep pits, making Wei Yan's iron cavalry impassable. In the jungle on both sides of the official road, there were many ambush soldiers, and after receiving Ma Dai's order, they shot bows and arrows together.

"There is an ambush, be careful!" Wei Yan turned the horse's head and wanted to withdraw first.

The battalion commander of the battalion directly under the military department, Shan Tong, took the lead and ordered his soldiers, saying: "Don't mess up, shrink the defense, and counterattack on the spot!" ”

(Note: Shan Tong is Xu Shu's adopted son, who had good grades in the Military Academy and was appointed by Xu Shu as the commander of the battalion directly under the military department.) As for why his surname is Shan and not Xu? It was because Xu Shu's real name was Shan Fu, who avenged others when he was young, got into a life lawsuit, and was wanted by the government, so he changed his name to Xu Shu. )

Shan Tong is not very old, but his martial arts are very good, he has defeated many students in the Wuying Palace, and he has also studied in Wenxian Pavilion. Even if he didn't have Xu Shu's connection, he was qualified to go to the regular army, serve as a captain, or be assigned to a local area to take charge of the strength of a county.

Now that he has arrived at the battalion directly under the military headquarters, although his position is low, his face is very large.

Even Wei Yan had to give three points in front of him.

Hearing Shan Tong's shout, Wei Yan looked over and shouted, "General Shan, the road ahead is interrupted, and you can't rush through." It's better to withdraw first, attack its left and right, and destroy the enemy's ambush. ”

"No, fight back on the spot!"

Shan Tong called the three company commanders under his command and shouted: "The first company goes to the left, the second company goes to the right, and the third company suppresses the enemy's firepower and counterattacks immediately!" ”

"No."

According to Shan Tong's orders, the three hundred and forty men under his command urgently retracted their defensive formations and launched a counterattack against the enemies on the left and right. Due to the relatively low position of the guard battalion and the first time it was fighting against the enemy, it suffered heavy casualties at the beginning of the battle.

Wei Yan wanted to persuade Shan Tong, but saw that the Flying Tiger Army behind him was also being shot with bows and arrows.

Wei Yan clenched his fists and said, "General, take care." ”

He led the Flying Tiger Army and roared away.

Shan Tong didn't care about Wei Yan, and continued to command the guard battalion to fight: "Grenade, throw!" ”

Boom boom...

More than 200 grenades were thrown to the left and right, blowing up large areas of trees. The powerful destructive power caused heavy casualties to the soldiers of Ma Dai who were ambushed under the trees, greatly reducing the speed of their attacks.

Shan Zhidao had a rare opportunity, and personally led a company and rushed into the woods.

Whoosh...

The enemy's bows and arrows came again, more fiercely than before, and there were many boulders, rolling down the mountain road.

"Everyone, be careful..."

Shan Tong pressed his hand behind him, and the soldiers quickly found cover to avoid enemy attacks.

"Hit!"

Bang bang bang...

Nearly 100 muskets burst into the hill and opened fire on the mountain. The advantage of the firing range, completely suppressing the ambush of the motor.

"Puff puff... Yes! ”

"Get down, get down..." Seeing that his soldiers continued to die tragically, Ma Dai shouted vigorously.

Unfortunately, the position of the soldiers under his command was very exposed, and even if they lay down, they would be attacked by the assault rifles.

In just two quarters of an hour, more than 1,000 people were killed.

Shan Tong shouted: "The first and second platoons continue to shoot, and the third platoon rushes up and throws grenades!" ”

Boom boom...

More than two dozen soldiers rushed forward and threw grenades around the enemy. The grenade exploded, destroying everything, including the soldiers lying on the ground, to the bottom of the hillside.

A black grenade emitting white smoke appeared next to Ma Dai, and Ma Dai ran away in fright.

"Haha... See how dare you ambush me.... Shan Tong stood up with a smile and shouted, "Brothers, keep fighting..." ”

"Yes."

He ran out of the woods and returned to his previous official path. It was discovered that Wei Yan had returned again, and with the Flying Tiger Army, he attacked the left side of the official road. More than 2,000 enemy troops were also ambushed on the left, which were suppressed by two companies of single passes. In addition, Wei Yan's Flying Tiger Army attacked the mountain, and it was easy to destroy the enemy.

"General Shan, what's the situation on your side?"

"We've won."

"Okay."

Wei Yan said excitedly: "The combat effectiveness of the new army is really extraordinary, in the face of an enemy several times its size, in a desperate situation, it can turn defeat into victory, which can be described as a model for the elite of all armies." ”

Single channel: "The Flying Tigers are good at field warfare, not good at attacking fortifications." As long as he holds the official road, why should General Wei use his own shortcomings to defeat the enemy's strengths? ”

"Aren't I afraid that you will suffer..."

"General Wei doesn't have to worry. The soldiers of my guard battalion are enough to destroy Ma Dai. The general only needs to hold the official road. In less than an hour, I will be able to capture all the enemies on the mountain. ”

After Wei Yan saw the combat effectiveness of the guard battalion, he was no longer as worried as before, and hugged his fists and said, "Okay, I'll listen to General Shan." ”

It's been a long time...

Ma Dai's 5,000 soldiers were completely lost and captured by the guard battalion.

Ma Dai also disappeared.

Wei Yan praised without hesitation: "The brothers in the guard battalion are really powerful! More powerful than the Flying Tigers! ”

"Thank you, General Wei, for the compliment."

Shan Tong is very proud, looking at the armies of Xu and Yang, which one can be ten with one? Even if Xiang Yu's broken military camp is not commanded by Xiang Yu, it may not be very powerful. And his guard battalion can turn defeat into victory in the event of an ambush.

Shan Tong looked at the situation in front of him and said, "General Wei, the lord is almost here, let's quickly fill in the official road." ”

"Okay."

Wei Yan recruited the Flying Tiger Army and used the boulders on the official road to fill in the deep pit.

When Lu Bu arrived, the official road had already been filled. More than 4,000 bodies were cremated. A large amount of armor, bows and arrows, and spears were captured, but these were of little use to Lu Bu's forces.

Southeast.

Jiangfang camp water village.

Gan Ning's 50,000 naval army, first faced Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and was exhausted, seeing that Beizhai was about to be breached, but the enemy suddenly retreated to encircle and suppress Xu Shu. It made Gan Ning breathe a sigh of relief.

However, his river defense camp still did not keep it.

Because Zhao Yun and Zhang Yun's water army came to kill and occupied Nanzhai.

Gan Ning had no choice but to lead his troops to withdraw from the water village and fortify on the Yangtze River. Attempted to blockade the armies of Zhao Yun, Zhang Yun, and Zhuge Liang north of the Yangtze River in Jiangxia County.
