Saving people is like fighting fires, Zhang Cheng personally led a brigade of more than 4,000 people, gave up heavy weapons, and only carried light machine guns, submachine guns, rifles, and grenades, and set off lightly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the Red 23rd Division was undergoing an extremely cruel test, and in the battle with the enemy's 29th Division, although it fought very well in the early stage, destroying two enemy battalions, but in the later stage, it was more and more restricted by ammunition, and the left and right flanks of the Red 23rd Division were broken through by the enemy because the bullets ran out.

Although the enemy's 29th Division was wiped out by the Red Army with two battalions, the commander of the 29th Division, Li Wenqian, was not a person who was willing to suffer. Under his strict orders, the 29th Division sent out its only heavy artillery battalion and bombarded the main position of the Red 23rd Division.

The Red 23rd Division, which had a strength of more than 4,000 people before the war, had suffered most of the casualties after several days of attrition, and the ammunition of all the troops had almost been consumed.

In terms of troops, there was less than one regiment on the Red Army's position that could still move, only more than 1,000 people, and there was an extreme shortage of ammunition, and the reason why the Red 23rd Division was able to hold out until now was that the soldiers fought with the enemy again and again with bayonets, exchanging lives for lives, and survived.

On the road from the General's Palace to Qiujia Pass, if the Kuomintang army dispatches planes, looking from the sky to the ground, it is easy to see that an extremely long group of troops is running frantically and advancing like arrows, straight into Qiujia Pass.

This team is the 1st Brigade of the Young Communist Division, which is lightly armed.

In "Lose the skin, lose the meat, don't fall behind!" Blood, sweat, no tears! Under the slogan, the soldiers of the 1st Brigade were full of confidence in the battle to rescue the Red 23rd Division.

Zhang Cheng and Li Yunlong were also in the running team, neither of them enjoyed any special treatment, the guard Xiao Li once led a big horse for Zhang Cheng to ride, but Zhang Cheng refused without hesitation, this scene fell in the eyes of the soldiers who were once prisoners of the Red Army, all of them were deeply encouraged, everyone screamed and ran forward, and no one shouted that they were tired.

Wen Yuanzheng, the commander of the reconnaissance company who went to investigate, and others rushed back, and because they were on horseback to transmit information, the news of the Red 23rd Division was quickly transmitted.

The news came that the enemy's 29th Division was the main force of the Kuomintang Army, which was organized into three brigades and nine regiments, and they also had a heavy artillery battalion.

Zhang Cheng listened to Wen Yuanzheng's report quietly and did not speak, and Li Yunlong, who hurried from behind, also fell into deep thought after listening to the report.

The enemy's 29th Division is not easy to fight, you know, this is the main division of 10,000 people, and the first brigade that came to the rescue only has more than 4,000 people, and there are no heavy weapons, even if Zhang Cheng is crazy, he will not dare to come stupidly with the other party.

Zhang Cheng knew that the situation was more serious than expected, and immediately sent all the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion to find out the enemy's position, and asked them to find out the actual situation of the enemy.

"Division commander, or let's do the same as the annihilation of the 26th Division in the first battle, take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, start with machine guns and submachine guns, and launch a surprise attack with the whole brigade, rush into the center of the enemy as quickly as possible, join the surrounded Red 23rd Division, blossom inside and outside, and annihilate the enemy's 29th Division in one fell swoop." After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he looked like Lao Tzu was the best in the world, and he didn't take the enemy's 29th Division, which had two or three times the number of troops, in his eyes.

Zhang Cheng was thinking about countermeasures, and when he heard Li Yunlong come up with such a bad idea, he scolded angrily: "Is your kid inflated, thinking that if you win a few battles, you think that the world is invincible." The enemy has 10,000 people, and he also has heavy artillery and machine guns, so we rely on our more than 4,000 people to attack, and if someone fires at us, then how many people will we have to die to save the dead Red 23rd Division. ”

After listening to Zhang Cheng's words, Li Yunlong stuck out his tongue, smirked, didn't make any more trouble, and continued to help the division commander find a way together.

"Commander, I have a solution, I don't know if it will work?" Zhang Wenzhen, the captain of the special operations team, suddenly interjected.

The special operations brigade is the trump card unit in Zhang Cheng's hands, and Zhang Cheng set up a special operations brigade called "Sharp Blade" in accordance with the model of the special forces of the People's Liberation Army, and Zhang Wenzhen is the head of the special operations brigade.

In the previous battles, because the main forces of the Red Army suffered one defeat after another, they lost a large area of base areas in the Soviet area, and the "return to the hometown regiment" formed by the landlord Lao Cai, at the instigation of the Kuomintang reactionaries, frantically launched a bloody revenge against the common people in the Soviet area, known as the "White Terror."

In view of this, Zhang Cheng took-for-tat confrontation and sent out all the special combat members of the "Sharp Blade" Special Operations Brigade, broke them into pieces, and with the help of local guerrillas and underground organizations, wantonly took revenge on the landlords and old fortunes of the "Returning to the Hometowns Regiment" and used the "red terror" to deal with the "white terror" of the Kuomintang Party, which finally effectively deterred the arrogance of the "Returning to the Hometown Regiment" and no longer dared to massacre the common people in the Soviet area on a large scale.

"Go, go, don't make a mess of you, you kid, even the division commander and Lao Tzu can't think of a way, what other good way can you be a small captain!" Li Yunlong shouted blindly.

"Wait, you let him talk about it, one person counts the short, many people count the long, and the three stinkers can still be Zhuge Liang." Zhang Cheng stopped Li Yunlong's nonsense and said to Zhang Wenzhen seriously.

"Well, division commander, if I heard me correctly, the company commander of the Wen expedition once reported that the enemy has a heavy artillery battalion." Zhang Wenzhen plucked up his courage and said.

"You heard me right, we just have nowhere to say anything about the enemy's heavy artillery battalion!" Li Yunlong said inexplicably.

"Captain Zhang, that's right, I personally reconnoitred it, and the enemy has a total of two 155mm heavy guns, eight mountain guns, and dozens of mortars." Wen Yuanzheng replied seriously.

"Haha, I see, I'm really blind, I can't see Mount Tai, even I have forgotten what the special operations brigade I created is for!" Zhang Cheng suddenly shouted loudly, slapping his head hard and laughing.

"Commander, you've got it in mind?" Zhang Wenzhen asked.

"Well, yes, I'm really confused, isn't the special operations team an expert in sabotage and decapitation tactics!" Zhang Cheng said suddenly.

"Division commander, do you mean to dispatch a special operations brigade to carry out a sabotage battle against the enemy's artillery battalion?" Li Yunlong

"That's right, the special operations brigade blends into the enemy's artillery battalion, captures their artillery, and then lets their artillery turn up the counter-muzzle, and bomb their own people, and we won't win this battle!" Zhang Cheng explained.

"That's right! We don't have heavy artillery, so the enemy will build it for us, and when we find the right opportunity to rescue the 23rd Division, we will give him a flower inside and outside, maybe before the second brigade arrives, our first brigade will destroy the enemy. Li Yunlong said excitedly.

"That's right! Do it! Everyone shouted excitedly at the same time, as if victory was in sight.

"Everyone is calm and calm, Captain Zhang Wenzhen, this sabotage mission will be handed over to the special operations team, do you have the confidence to complete the task?" Zhang Cheng looked at Zhang Wenzhen solemnly and asked seriously.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" Zhang Wenzhen did not hesitate at all and resolutely accepted the order.
