Chapter 100: A blockbuster

Hu Lian sat on a wicker chair. Put your two feet on the shabby desk of the county magistrate in front of you, thinking about being interviewed by war correspondents. There was a sudden roar, and the whole earth trembled. Dust fell from the roof of the office and the glass on the windows was shattered. The guards standing by instinctively pushed him to the ground and shoved him under the table. Bastard, what are you doing. Get the hell out of here.' After hearing that there was no movement outside, Hu Lian scolded under the table. He got out from under the table, shook the dust that fell on his head, and subconsciously looked out the window. The sky is clear, where did this thunderbolt come from? What kind of cannon is this? Could it be that there would be Soviet Katyusha on this small island? At this time, he felt a chill in his body, his lips were dry, and his heart rate accelerated. Anyway, I really feel bad. He hurried out and climbed to the top of the small second floor despite the danger. I saw that on the artillery positions of the 118th Division Artillery Battalion, which was set up in front of his headquarters and only 1,000 meters away, 8 155-mm howitzers and 12 mountain guns of 76 Haomi were drowned in smoke and dust. He had a hunch in his heart that this artillery battalion would be finished. But he still gave the order with hope, and the staff officer who followed him said: 'Go to the front and take a look at the battle damage. Report it to me right away. Let the naval guns suppress the communist artillery fire with all their might.' After Hu Lian gave this order, he reached out to another staff officer and asked for a telescope. At this time, he saw that from behind the high ground occupied by the communist army, shells with long tail flames flew out again. Telok Gangxi Village, Xiahu Village, Kengbei Village. He hurriedly raised his binoculars and looked over. He saw the flames of the bombing of Gangxi Village in the northeast, and the officers and soldiers assembled there danced wildly in the sound of the explosion, and then fell in pieces. Then they were shrouded in a thick cloud of smoke and dust, and several officers and soldiers ran out of the smoke and dust in fright. He turned his telescope to Kengbei Village to the west, and the situation was similar, and it was also full of gunsmoke.' What the fuck. Where did this communist army get its rocket artillery? I didn't even know it beforehand.' He held up the binoculars, observing the situation on the battlefield while thinking. No, it's too dangerous for the headquarters to be located in this place. Thinking of this, he hurriedly walked down to the roof of the building and told the chief of staff, Xiao Rui, to immediately withdraw the headquarters to Tongling Christian Church. Then he hurriedly walked out of the butterfly county political axe with the guards. Just stepped out of the door of the county political axe. I saw Gao Zhan with a bloody face, sitting on a field jeep of the American army, and driving towards him frantically. Without waiting for the car to stop, Gao Zhan jumped down from the car. Falling to the ground, he shouted out of breath: 'Commander, quickly order to withdraw, we have really fallen into the trap set by the communist army.' Hu Lian unconsciously put his hand on his pistol holster, and shouted loudly to Gao Zhan: "Look at you, this still looks like a senior general of the party-state. Stand up for me and tell me what's going on.' Gao Zhan, supported by two staff officers, stood up and said, "It's terrible. It's really horrible. I've fought in half my life, and I've never seen such heavy artillery fire. Commander, for the sake of the 20,000 brothers and your life and death, hurry up and order the withdrawal, maybe it will be too late.' Hu Lian frowned, walked over and grabbed the placket on Gao Zhanyuan's chest, bowed left and right, and slapped Gao Zhanyuan's two big mouths fiercely. Angry and said: Don't fuck me with this nonsense. I'm just asking you what's the matter?' The two mouths were so high that they covered their right ears and howled like pigs. At this time, Hu Lian realized that he had hit Gao Zhanren's injured right ear just now. He shook his head back and motioned to the hygienist behind him to treat the wound for Gao Zhan. I took someone into a jeep and went to Tongling Christian Church, which is close to the coastline.

According to Hu Lian's order, the 118th Regiment of the 201st and 25th Divisions of the Kuomintang were assembled in Gangxi Village, Xiahu Village and Kengbei Village respectively. After waiting for the air force bombers and artillery to bomb the enemy's positions before attacking, they will launch simultaneous attacks on the 201st Heights, 425th Heights, and 410th Heights. Just as they had just finished assembling. The terrible scene that made them unforgettable for the rest of their lives happened. From behind the mountain. Flutter. Flutter. Flutter. In an instant, countless shells with long tails of flames flew out, and a carpet bombardment was carried out on the three staging areas that were ready to participate in the attack. Countless steel balls the size of peanuts and rice grains are like sudden hailstones. Knock everything in the assembly area into a mess. The firepower is concentrated and fierce, it can really be described as overwhelming, thunderous power.

Gao Zhanyuan held his bandaged head, which was only half of his face left, and told what had just happened. I was on a hill not far from the village, observing the enemy's situation, and I was only able to suffer this small wound and avoid being killed by the bombing. The area of the artillery fire was so great that the brothers were killed and wounded. I saw with my own eyes the cannonballs raining down on the heads of the brethren. Immediately blow them up to the ground.' Gao Zhan also kept nagging: 'The blood is flowing like a river, it's too scary. It's really terrifying' What Gao Zhan described was the masterpiece of the rocket artillery battalion of the 1st Marine Division of the People's Liberation Army, which immediately entered the preset artillery position after landing last night and set some target directions. When they found out that the enemy had landed, they wanted to carpet bombard the enemy on the beachhead as described by their instructor. But it has not been approved by the superiors. This time when the enemy had assembled and was ready to attack on the three heights. They received orders from the command to destroy enemy artillery positions and cover enemy assembly areas with artillery fire. They first carried out a surprise attack on the enemy's artillery position, but unexpectedly, only one company was used to give one of the enemy's artillery battalions to the company. Subsequently, each company was responsible for a staging area, and another artillery raid was fired. Even they themselves did not expect to be launched so quickly, firing 20 rounds of 122mm rockets in just 20 seconds, and countless bullets in the shells were overwhelmingly attacking the enemy assembled in the open field at the entrance of the three villages. While striking a heavy blow to the enemy and shocking the enemy's courage, they themselves were stunned by this volcanic eruption, the sound like thunder and tiger roar, and the multi-barreled salvo. They exclaimed: 'This cannon is too fast, it hits like a machine gun. In the blink of an eye, twenty shells were fired.' It is not surprising that they have such an exclamation, this kind of multi-barrel continuous launch, they are also the first time to hit. In normal times, when they train to shoot targets, they are all under the guidance of weapons experts, and they only shoot one shot at a time, and at most they only shoot two shots in bursts, but this time they have opened their eyes.' With such powerful and ferocious rocket artillery, no enemy will have to be beaten to powder by us!'' Don't talk nonsense, shift positions right away!' After completing two raids, the battalion commander gave the order to transfer. The soldier sat on a ten[***] truck in the United States, and talked excitedly about the surname of the infinitely powerful rocket launcher.

After the shelling, the commanders and fighters of our army, who were in full position, immediately launched a counterattack on the enemy. In an instant, the sound of killing, shouting, and gunfire shook the heavens and the earth, and they were like tigers descending from the mountains, pounced on the terrified enemy.

Hu Lian couldn't believe that he had worked so hard to make this plan. How to execute it will be this result. Every detail has been carefully planned by himself, and the first-hand situation has been personally verified by himself, and even the day before yesterday, he took a plane to personally reconnoitre. He was unwilling to let his perfect plan run aground like this, and he withdrew it like this. I can't explain to the old man when I go back like this. So he ordered Xiao Rui, the chief of staff, to immediately organize the troops and carry out the second attack, and the attacking troops were scattered and assembled to meet the enemy in concealment. Multi-point offense. In the choice of offensive lines

'Commander, this battle cannot be fought,' Gao Zhan interrupted him with his head covered, 'The communist army is completely prepared. In a shelling just now, we suffered nearly 2,000 casualties and the artillery battalion was completely lost. The current situation is very different from the hostile situation we had when we came. In the case of an unknown enemy, if you continue to fight, you will suffer a big loss! It's better for us to withdraw first, and then take a long-term view

'Withdraw. Remove. Remove. Remove your head.' He really wanted to slap Gao Zhan a few more big mouths.' Even if you withdraw, you have to beat the communist army half to death first, otherwise how can you withdraw now? Just withdraw like this, won't the troops herd the sheep?' Hu Lian wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, turned his face to Chief of Staff Xiao Rui and said fiercely: "Immediately send a team to supervise the battle, and dare to kill those who retreat!" Cower and kill! Kill those who shake the hearts of the army!'' The 118th Division reported that the enemy had launched a counterattack' A staff officer took a phone and reported to Hu Lian.

'Tell them to stand up!' Hu Lian shouted hoarsely.

'Commander,' said Chief of Staff Xiao Rui cautiously, 'Do you think we should make a plan for retreat now?' Hmm' Hu Lian snorted with his nose and glanced at Chief of Staff Xiao Rui very dissatisfied. I blame him for not bringing this question at this time.

Hu Lian is still confident in his plan, and the trump card in his hand has not yet been revealed. He raised his hand and looked at his watch, and couldn't help frowning, 'What's going on?' Why have the paratroopers not arrived until now? He shouted to the confidential secretary: 'Send a telegram to Kinmen and TW immediately, urging the plane to come and provide air fire support!' Ask the paratroopers what the hell is going on, why haven't they arrived yet? Fuck, Wen Qi is not even, how can I fight this battle!.'' Commander, I have already asked,' Chief of Staff Xiao Rui replied with a worried face: "The air force replied yes, wait patiently, the plane has already departed from Kinmen, and the answer is that 495 paratrooper officers and men, led by Han Pengju, the leader of the paratroop brigade, took off 40 minutes ago on 15 C-47 air train transport planes.' Xiao Rui's reply made Hu Lian feel ominous: 'What did you say? Took off 40 minutes ago? Hu Lian roared: "It is more than 100 kilometers from Kinmen to Butterfly Island, and the plane can't even use it for 15 minutes. How come it hasn't been 40 minutes yet? It's pure fart!' He turned around and ordered the female operator sitting behind him: 'Keep in touch with the planes and paratroopers.' The female newspaper operator's face was a mess of sweat, and she showed a helpless expression and said, "My commander, I have never stopped contacting them, but I have never answered.' Hu Lian was really a little confused. At first, it can be explained that in order to ensure the secrecy of the operation, the radio was kept silent, but after 40 minutes, there was not even a shadow of the plane. This is really wrong. He walked out of the church, squinting anxiously at the sky, looking at the planes, looking at the paratroopers. But the blue sky, except for a few faint white clouds. Nothing.

'Commander, I look at the Air Force and the paratroopers, there must be something wrong.' The chief of staff, who quietly walked behind Hu Lian, said: 'Is it possible that it was intercepted by [***] fighters on the way?' Intercept. Could it be that those fighters of our Air Force are eating dry food? Hu Lian raised his hand and said, 'Forget it. If you don't come, you won't count on them! I'll settle accounts with them when I get back.'' Commander,' asked Shory, 'what do we do now?' Hu Lian let out a long sigh and said, "Time does not wait for me, and it is useless to love war. You and Gao Zhan, organize the front troops, launch a feint attack on the communist army with a small number of troops, and cover the retreat of the large army. It is necessary to resist step by step, cover each other, and retreat to the beachhead in turn. You prepare again, contact the Tai'an, and move the headquarters to the Tai'an first.'' It's seen that Hu Lian finally agreed to retreat. The chief of staff, Xiao Rui, was overjoyed, agreed, and hurriedly greeted the staff of the organization guards and the command headquarters, ready to withdraw to the ship.

Hu Lian turned around and returned to Tongling Christian Church. With a glimmer of hope in my heart, I walked to the desk of the beautiful female radio operator at the radio. Look at her with longing eyes. How he longed to hear a piece of good news from her mouth that lifted him.

'Report' The beautiful female newspaper operator suddenly stood up and spoke. Hu Lian looked at her excitedly.' Call from Tai'an: Our fleet was bombed by communist planes. Our ship was seriously wounded. Fleet Commander Tai'an Captain Li Yuxi was killed. The Taikang was also hit by the sweet voice of the female operator like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Hu Lian's head was blank at this time. There was a flying Venus in front of him, and in this flying Venus, he only saw the female newspaper operator's red lips closed in front of her eyes, but she didn't know what she was talking about

Hu Lian fainted. Completely dizzy! How so? Isn't that killing me! Could it be that the fate of the communist army on Kinmen Island, which has changed places in a very dramatic way, is my turn this time. No! At this time, he could no longer care about how to explain to the old man when he went back, and brought a few people with him. Climb aboard the three jeeps parked outside and rush towards the beach.
