Hearing the clarion call of the retreat order, the soldiers of the Cantonese Army, who had been bombed by the Red Army's artillery fire, immediately dispersed in a hurry, immediately turned around and ran away. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It was not the first time they had dealt with the Red Army, but they had never encountered such a heavy artillery bombardment, such a powerful firepower, that fools understood that continuing to rush up was like lighting a lamp in a toilet - looking for death.

The soldiers of the 3rd Division of the Guangdong Army were by no means fools, but always cunning veterans, who rushed fiercer than anyone else when beating the water dogs, and when they fled for their lives, their speed was comparable to that of Usain Bolt, the 100-meter Olympic champion.

The fleeing soldiers were terrified, when had they seen this kind of artillery explosion, they had always used cannonballs to talk to the mud-legged Red Army, and when did the mud-legged Red Army chase them with cannonballs!

Seeing that the artillery fire of the Red Army was even more fierce than that of the Central Army, and that the fools who rushed the most fiercely were blown up into the sky, and the next round of artillery bombardment would soon be their turn to be accompanied by those dead ghost brothers, all the officers and men moved in unison, and after turning around, they began to rush towards the road they came from in the sound of the horn of retreat.

Ye Zhao's second division just wanted to launch a pursuit of the Red Army, but it was like a backward tide that was suddenly rushed by the retreat of the third division, and the battle formation of the entire Guangdong army immediately collapsed and completely collapsed.

Want to run? There are no doors. The artillery regiment commanded by Sun Youdao alone had 40 mountain artillery, 100 mortars, and 20 mortars attached to the 1st and 3rd brigades shelling at the same time.

As soon as they saw that the enemy was about to flee, the heavy firepower battalion of the Red Army on the hill also came to join in the fun, and the heavy machine gun position immediately moved forward, condescendingly, and fired wildly at the enemy's buttocks. The soldiers of the Cantonese army only hated their parents for giving them two legs, and ran to the Qingshi Village with rolling and crawling, as if they could escape by escaping there.

However, the soldiers of the 4th and 5th Brigades led by Political Commissar Xiao Hua had already interspersed and detoured back to the back of the Second Division of the Guangdong Army, cutting off their escape routes.

At the same time, Zhang Cheng's hand was raised, the artillery fire was temporarily suspended, and he immediately ordered the trumpeter to blow the horn of the charge, and the officers and men of the whole division launched a charge on the entire line of the Guangdong army like a tiger descending from the mountain, forming a flanking attack with Xiao Hua.

"Rush! Kill! Shoot or kill! ”

The Red Army's loud slogans resounded one after another, resounding through the sky. Under the repeated onslaught of the Red Army, the 2nd and 3rd Divisions of the Cantonese Army and the two independent brigades were completely defeated, as if their parents had lost two legs, and even threw away the rifles they used for eating, and fled frantically in all directions.

Under the attack of the two armies, where is it so easy to escape? Later, when they heard the soldiers of the Young Communist Division shouting loudly "The Red Army treats prisoners preferentially", they immediately did not bother to run again, and one by one knelt on the ground and raised their hands and shouted, "Grandpa of the Red Army spares his life."

After the Red Army chased more than ten miles, Zhang Cheng ordered the trumpeter to blow the trumpet call to return to the army, and suddenly, the Red Army soldiers escorted a large number of Cantonese prisoners back to the station.

At this time, it was almost dusk, and along the way were a large number of weapons and ammunition, grain and grass and all kinds of baggage left by the Guangdong army.

In this battle, 3,000 enemies were killed and more than 10,000 were captured, including Ye Zhao, the commander of the second division of the Guangdong Army, the commander of the third division, and the commanders of two independent brigades.

In addition to making up for the guns and ammunition consumed by the Young Communist Division, Zhang Cheng also handed over a large number of guns and ammunition to the Red Army headquarters, which won the praise of the central government, especially Mr. Lin of the First Army Corps and Mr. Peng of the Third Army Corps. The telegrams that came and went all called Zhang Cheng his little brother, and he had to call Zhang Cheng their big brother.

In addition, the Young Communist Division also seized a large amount of grain, ocean, medicine, and military uniforms from the Guangdong Army, all of which were urgently needed by the Red Army at present.

Not only that, this battle of the Young Communist Division also greatly shocked the pursuing Guangdong and Hunan armies, and from then on they no longer dared to approach the Young Communist Division at will, and the name of the Red Bandit Scout spread all over Guangdong and Hunan provinces, making the Kuomintang troops from all walks of life frightened.

The Central Revolutionary Military Commission soon issued a commendation order, giving high praise to the Young Communist Division. At the same time, this battle also greatly boosted the morale of all the Red Army officers and men, greatly calmed down the mood of the soldiers who had originally complained about the Long March, and the people did not run around casually.
