In the early morning of the next day, the attack of the Fifth Regiment began as scheduled, and the red signal flare suddenly rose into the cloudy sky, which was particularly bright and dazzling. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

What followed was a thunderous artillery bombardment, and the eight mortars of the five regiments were lined up, and the mortar shells flashed out a string of dazzling light, and then fell on the north gate defended by the Guizhou army, and immediately smashed the city gate to pieces.

At the same time, dozens of military trumpets sounded on the east and west sides at the same time, accompanied by louder and louder shouts, and the strings of wolf smoke outside the city that could only be rolled up by the rush of at least 10,000 or more troops made the Guizhou army in chaos completely lose its judgment, and did not know how many Red Army troops came to attack the city.

Ding Wei found that the city gate was open, and immediately ordered the whole army to assault, and more than 1,000 soldiers of the whole regiment poured in from the collapsed city gate like a fierce tiger on the mountain.

They didn't have time to organize effective resistance, they were frightened by the shouts of the Red Army, and the soldiers of the Guizhou Army just wanted to run for their lives, and the farther they fled, the better!

Moreover, in order to escape faster, they even lost the rifles they used to eat, so the Red Army saved a lot of hands and feet, and did not have to worry about resistance at all, just to capture the prisoners.

The commander of the Guizhou Army found that the Red Army was not as much as expected, and wanted to stop the escape of the Guizhou soldiers and organize an effective counterattack.

But to no avail, the overseers sent out were instantly disrupted by the deserters, and in the end, even the commander of the Qian Legion himself was carried away by the rout.

When the Qianjun found that there was no gunfire in the south and no Red Army to enclose them, they immediately understood that the Red Army did not want too many casualties so they deliberately set aside a way to survive, so everyone quickly turned around and fled to the south.

Due to the large number of routs, the south gate became crowded in an instant, and many more people were killed and injured by trampling than the Red Army shot.

The scene of 6,000 or 7,000 people fleeing together was so spectacular, the rout of the Guizhou army burst out with unprecedented strength, and even the "double spearmen" who usually smoked heavy cigarettes also exerted their strength to eat milk, and burst out with a speed that was not inferior to that of the later 100-meter Olympic champion Bolt, and ran for their lives.

Ding Wei ordered to leave a battalion to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the troops continued to pursue, not giving the Guizhou army a chance to regroup, and chased it for more than 20 miles, almost reaching the city of Zunyi, and then the troops stopped the truce, and captured nearly 2,000 Guizhou troops along the way.

At the same time, the two regiments of the Qianjun army that retreated under the Loushan Pass waited patiently for reinforcements from Hou Zunyi under the order, and prepared to assemble together before launching a counterattack on the Loushan Pass.

However, the reinforcements were supposed to arrive before eight o'clock, but they waited until ten o'clock, when the reinforcements were still nowhere to be found, and waited until a large number of Red Army troops came from behind.

It turned out that the political commissar of the 2nd Division received Ding Wei's telegram and knew that Banqiao was already in his hands, so he turned around and attacked the two regiments of the Guizhou Army that intended to counterattack Loushan Pass from behind, forming a flanking attack with the 1st Division on the mountain to annihilate this Guizhou army.

Pity this group of Guizhou troops waited all night in the bleak wind and cold rain, not only did they fail to wait for the large troops of the Guizhou army to come to reinforce them, but they waited for the Red Army's life-threatening attack, and under the joint encirclement and suppression of the 1st and 2nd Divisions, they were annihilated in less than an hour.

The battle of the Second Division against Banqiao was fought very beautifully, and it can be called a classic case of defeating the strong with the weak.

At a small cost of less than 200 casualties, the battle crushed the troops of the four regiments of the Guizhou Army, captured nearly 3,000 of the Guizhou Army, and captured almost most of the weapons, ammunition and war materials abandoned by the Guizhou Army.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning, most of the Red Third Army Corps arrived at Banqiao one after another, and Ding Wei handed over the captured weapons and ammunition to the Third Army Corps in accordance with Zhang Cheng's order.

In the evening, the good news reached the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, and the commander-in-chief, Mr. Zhu, Deputy Commander Zhou, and other central leaders were all smiling.

Mr. Zhu said happily: "This Ding Wei fought well, they all said that there were no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and they dared to defeat the four regiments of the Guizhou Army head-on with one regiment, captured 3,000 prisoners, and captured like a mountain, but their own casualties were only 200, which can be called a classic battle of defeating the strong with the weak, which is worth learning from the whole army." ”

The commander also praised Ding Wei: "Ding Wei is handsome, and his future development will not be small. ”

It turned out that the commander had a great impression of Ding Wei for a long time, and in the Battle of Tucheng, the Second Division led by Ding Wei attacked head-on and took the command of the Sichuan Army's Model Division, thus laying the foundation for the victory of the Battle of Tucheng.

This battle was the first battle in which the commander re-commanded the troops, and Ding Wei left a very deep impression on the commander by winning the enemy's head, knowing that Ding Wei was a rare general with both wisdom and bravery.

Deputy Commander Zhou said: "Although the Second Division of the Young Column took Banqiao very beautifully, but the best fight was still the First Division of the Young Column, which was really fierce as a tiger, from the bottom to the top of the Yang Gong Guizhou Army, which was heavily guarded by heavy troops and known as the dangerous Loushan Pass, captured the mountain in two hours, and also completely annihilated the two regiments of the Guizhou Army, no wonder the First Division of the Young Column dared to suppress Ding Wei's Second Division, known as the first-class main force of the Young Column!" ”

The commander obviously also noticed this, he smiled and nodded: "Li Yunlong is a tiger general, and his courage is not as good as that of the founding general of the Ming Dynasty, Chang Yuchun, and there will definitely be greater development in the future." ”

After making a brief comment on the generals of Shaozong, the commander led the central leaders to climb the Loushan Pass in the vast sea of clouds.

At this time, the smoke of gunpowder will disperse, the blood stains have not dried, the cold wind is cold, and Lin Tao is angry.

After a long rain, the sunset in the west is about to set, showing a bright red.

The commander stood at the pass, overlooking the peaks, his heart fluctuated, the poems flourished, and a magnificent poem was casually chanted:

The west wind is strong, and the geese in the sky are called frost and morning moon. Frost and early moon, the sound of horses' hooves is broken, and the sound of trumpets is swallowed.

Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it is stepping forward from the beginning. From the beginning, the mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood.

Shaozong and the first corps from Tongzi successfully joined forces at Banqiao, and then took advantage of the victory to pursue, and a large army of more than tens of thousands of people rushed south along both sides of the road from Tongzi to Zunyi.

At the same time, the three legions that had just captured the two county towns also rushed towards Zunyi, but they met Wang Jialie, who was leading the army to Loushan Pass for reinforcements.

Mr. Peng immediately sent troops to chase after him, Wang Jialie found that the first army and the young column were also rushing towards Zunyi, the situation was extremely bad, and he hurriedly ordered the whole army to withdraw to Zunyi City.

Mr. Peng led the three corps to follow the Guizhou army to the city of Zunyi.

At this time, Wang Jialie, who was still in shock, received a call from Xue Yue, the commander-in-chief of the front line of the pursuit army, ordering him to hold on to Zunyi City, and informing the Central Army that two divisions were already galloping towards Zunyi, and the siege of Zunyi could be relieved tomorrow.

But where did Wang Jialie, who was already frightened, dare to stay in Zunyi, and fled overnight with his cronies' guards, and even lied that he went out of the city to meet the reinforcements of the Central Army.
