As if to confirm Zhang Qun's words, the confidential staff officer came in and handed Zhou Enlai a telegram, and Zhou Enlai frowned after reading it. After a long time, he said: "Mr. Yue Jun, your Chairman Jiang has already started, on the front line of Tongguan, the Central Army is attacking in an all-round way, and even heavy artillery is used." ”

None of the people in the room spoke, and the atmosphere became tense.

For a long time, Ye Jianying said angrily: "General Zhang, General Chen, you actually bombarded the ancient city of Tongguan with heavy artillery, aren't you afraid of destroying those monuments and cultural relics?" ”

Zhang Zhizhong and Chen Cheng both had gloomy faces and did not speak.

Zhang Qun said: "Mr. Enlai, as long as your party immediately ceases fire in Tianshui and lets the main forces of Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui withdraw to Gangu for defense, I will immediately send a report to the chairman of the committee and ask Tongguan, northern Sichuan, and eastern Sichuan to stop attacking. ”

Zhou Enlai shook his head: "The main forces of Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui are about to disappear, and it is too late to talk about a ceasefire." Besides, if the two armies are killed together, how can they cease fire if they want to? ”

Ye Jianying said: "The main force of the two horses must be eliminated, otherwise, today there are two horses to start a civil war, and tomorrow there may be three Li and four kings to follow the example of the two horses." Only by eliminating the main force of the Second Horse that fought the civil war can we deter those who want to fight the civil war. ”

Shao Lizi sighed: "What a miserable life! ”

Zhou Enlai glanced at Shao Lizi, turned to Zhang Qun and said: "If your party is sincere, we can sit down and negotiate seriously, and if we want to fight, we will accompany you." Since the day our Red Army was born, it has grown up under the sound of your encirclement and suppression, and we are not afraid of your million-strong army. It's a big deal, you occupy Xi'an, let's negotiate in another place! However, I would like to remind you not to let Jiang Dingwen be Hu Zongnan's second. If that is the case, I guess the next negotiation will be held in Luoyang. ”

Zhang Qun smiled: "I can't imagine that Mr. Enlai, who has always been rigorous, has also learned to speak out!" We will not talk about anything else, first, we demand that your party immediately cease fire on the spot in Tianshui, and second, we demand that your party restrain Liu Yimin's troops and refrain from sabotaging the railways and airports. Otherwise. The central army must occupy Xi'an. ”

Zhou Enlai immediately replied: "Mr. Yue Jun, I can tell you responsibly that at this moment, I am afraid that the battle of Tianshui is nearing the end, and there is no need to mention the issue of a ceasefire." If Erma has the courage to provoke a civil war, he should have the consciousness to accept being eliminated. As for the second point, we can do it. If the Kuomintang has the sincerity to continue negotiations, please immediately stop attacking Tongguan, northern Sichuan, and eastern Sichuan. Otherwise, our army will carry out a counterattack. ”

Chen Cheng smiled proudly and said, "Mr. Enlai, it's useless to talk more. You still have to think about how to avoid the problem of Tongguan, eastern Sichuan, and northern Sichuan defenders being completely annihilated! Liu Yimin is far away in Tianshui, and I think it won't take a few days for the central government to recover the Guanzhong Plain. The elite of the Central Army, one million, how can you fight against the Red Army, which is not fully armed? ”

Ye Jianying immediately said-for-tat: "It seems that Hu Zongnan's equipment is not worse than Jiang Ding's cultural department, right?" ”

The two sides come and go, and no one will let them. As a result, another strange scene in the history of war appeared: the battlefield was full of artillery fire, and Huaqing Pond was full of swords. Both sides want to get what they can't get at the negotiating table on the battlefield, and they both want to get what they can't get on the battlefield through negotiations. None of the parties offered to suspend the negotiations.

At this time, a fierce battle had begun on the Tongguan front.

Jiang Dingwen was a native of Zhuji, Zhejiang, and was known as Chiang Kai-shek's Five Tiger Generals together with Liu Zhi, Gu Zhutong, Chen Cheng, and Wei Lihuang. During the Central Plains War, Jiang Dingwen led his troops to fight against Feng Jun and Yan Jun, and had excellent performances, and was known as "General Fei".

There are many strange things about the soldiers in the Republic of China. For example, Wang Lingji of the Sichuan Army, when he was young, went to Shanghai to prostitute himself, and at the same time as Chiang Kai-shek, he took a fancy to a girl. Wang Lingji's family is rich and generous, so he naturally wins the hearts of beauties. Chiang Kai-shek was angry but argued with him, and was slapped twice by Wang Lingji. Originally, it was difficult for ordinary people to know about this matter, but Wang Lingji himself used this matter as a show-off capital and often boasted in front of others. However, Chiang Kai-shek was magnificent, and he did not have any problems with Wang Lingji.

This Jiang Dingwen also has a strange thing. First, at the end of the Central Plains War, Jiang Dingwen, Gu Zhutong and Shangguan Yun met in Zhengzhou, and the three of them gambled all night, and Jiang Dingwen lost all the military expenses of the whole division. When it was time to pay salaries, Jiang Dingwen was empty-handed, so he had to go to Chiang Kai-shek to report. When Chiang Kai-shek heard that he had lost the military bet, he was angry, and strictly ordered him to ask Gu Zhutong and Shangguan Yunxiang for it, but both of them deduced that they had already sent it to the soldiers and would not come back. Chiang Kai-shek had no choice but to give Jiang Dingwen another 50,000 yuan as military salary. The dignified general gambled and lost the military expenses, and this Jiang Dingwen was also a big deal.

This second miracle is not recorded in the book, but it is true. Historically, the army launched the Battle of Central Henan in 1944, and General Jiang Dingwen, who was then the commander of the First Theater of Operations, fled from Luoyang in a hurry, completely ignoring the troops, let alone organizing a counterattack. When he fled to Zhonghe Township, Luoning, Jiang Dingwen was afraid that the army would catch up and find out his identity, so he handed over the golden pistol given to him by Chiang Kai-shek to the local peasants, replaced him with a donkey, rode on it, disguised himself as a peasant, and fled to Xi'an in a panic. This gun was later recovered from the peasants by the 2nd Division of the Eighth Route Army in western Henan. The dignified Five Tiger Generals, it turned out that the heroic spirit of General Shi Fei of the Northern Expedition had gone somewhere, and he had become a donkey general!

After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's telegram, Jiang Dingwen immediately understood that he wanted to take advantage of the absence of the main force of Liu Yimin's Seventh Army in Xi'an, go all out to take Tongguan, and then occupy Weinan and Xi'an. When Liu Yiming returns, he will immediately stop attacking.

As a result, Jiang Dingwen strictly ordered all troops on the front line to launch a fierce attack according to the plan.

The 2nd Division and the 25th Red Army on the Tongguan front had already been ready for battle. Seeing that the enemy was coming, he immediately fought with the Central Army.

The deployment of Hong Chaoyuan, Wu Huanxian, and Xu Haidong was to guard Tongguan with the 2nd Division of the Du, and to guard the key points in the mountainous area of Xiaoqinling with the Red 25th Army, so as to strictly prevent a sneak attack by the Central Army.

The plan of the 2nd Division to defend Tongguan was to resist the positions outside Tongguan with small units, scatter and harass the enemy, and widely spread ground mines and explosives to block the enemy. When the enemy begins to attack the city, concentrate your fire on a large number of enemies. Strive to hold out until the main force rushes back. If the enemy breaks through the wall of Tongguan, he will take the initiative to withdraw from Tongguan, block, harass and delay the enemy between Tongguan and Weinan, and delay his offensive speed.

Qi Fengnian is now the battalion commander. He was originally from the 13th Division, and Liu Yimin was optimistic about his performance when he was guarding the county seat, and when the Second Independent Division was established, he was specially transferred from the 13th Division to serve as the commander of the first battalion of the Fourth Independent Regiment.

At 5 o'clock in the morning, Qi Fengnian led his battalion across the Tonggou River and ambushed on a high ground near Qili Village on the west side of the Yushan Pass on the east bank of the Jingou, preparing to give him a closer touch when the enemy attacked.

Since the main force moved westward, Qi Fengnian brought troops here almost every day, and also laid land mines and explosives packs, waiting for the enemy's ambush, but all failed. When he set off early this morning, regiment commander Shen Nantang and political commissar Chen Dong specially told him that Tianshui had already started, and if the Central Army had taken action, it should be today.

Qi Fengnian thought to himself, this small ambush, small blockade, and small guerrilla attack are our forte, otherwise the corps commander would not have transferred us from the 13th Division to the Duer Division. After expressing his determination with the head of the regiment and the political commissar, Qi Fengnian set off with the team.

At half past seven in the morning, the troops of the Central Army were dispatched, and the soldiers left the trenches, marched side by side, and rushed to Tongguan.

Qi Fengnian saw it, amazing, this is the main force of the Central Army. On the avenues and fields, they were all marching troops of the Central Army. This is not something that one battalion can provoke, and it must be withdrawn with one shot, and it must be taken to the other side of the ditch to block the attack. Otherwise, you will have to be overwhelmed by the crowds of enemies.

Qi Fengnian immediately ordered the messenger to go back and report that the main force of the enemy army had begun to attack.

Look at the enemy brigade entering the explosives bag burial area, Qi Fengnian did not rush to detonate, he planned to hit head-on first, and then set off the explosives, and when the enemy ran down the road in a panic, he would step on the ground mines, so that the effect should be better.

Seeing that the enemy had arrived, Qi Fengnian shouted "fight", and the shell gun in his hand shot at the enemy who hit the head.

The ambush came very suddenly, the enemy was not prepared at all, and in their minds, the Red Army should be guarding the city of Tongguan, how did it run under their noses? Therefore, the results of the first battalion's round of shooting were very large, and almost everyone hit the target.

Seeing that the enemy behind was already in chaos, it was time, and Qi Fengnian decisively ordered the accompanying sappers to detonate explosives.

At this moment, dust and smoke immediately billowed on the main road, and enemies from the left and right directions also began to move closer here.

Qi Fengnian didn't care about checking the results of the battle, and immediately led the troops to slip down the Jingou and went to the other side to block the attack.

Qi Fengnian's blow completely angered the former enemy commander of the Central Army. The loss is too great, and I haven't seen the Tongguan city wall yet, so I suffered this stuffy stick, and it was an ambush, an explosive bag, and a mine, which made people dizzy!

Therefore, the Central Army, which rushed to Jingou, did not rush to cross the ditch, but set up artillery and fired a salvo at the opposite side, intending to bury the red bandits who were ambushed and blocked in a sea of bullets and fire.

After Qi Fengnian led the troops to cross the Jingou, he found that the large army was hidden behind the Liangliang of the Jingou, and it seemed that he was preparing to fight the Central Army here.

Seeing that Qi Fengnian led the first battalion back, division commander Hong Chaoyuan, political commissar Hu Xuerong, and chief of staff Zhang Yicheng personally called him to inquire about the situation. Before the report was finished, the Central Army began to fire artillery.

Hong Chaoyuan, Hu Xuerong and Zhang Yicheng looked at each other for a moment, and Hong Chaoyuan said: "We can't expose the troops to the enemy's artillery fire, after the enemy's shelling stops for a while, the troops will go up and occupy the position, hit hard, and immediately withdraw." After the enemy shelled again, fight again, and lead a battalion to block here again, and the main force will withdraw to the north bank of the Tonggou River, where he will do it again, and then return to defend Tongguan City as planned. ”

Hu Xuerong looked up at the sky and said, "It seems that the enemy was frightened by the commander of the legion, and he has not dispatched a plane yet. If there were no planes to participate in the war, this Tongguan would be better to defend a little. ”

It didn't take long for the artillery to stop. Hong Chaoyuan was just about to order the troops to go to the position, Zhang Yicheng stopped him and told him to wait, now the enemy artillery has not left the artillery position, and the artillery observation post can easily find us.

Hong Chaoyuan patted his head: "How did I forget the anticline position battle that the corps commander talked about, Li Qing had already tried it once during the Xikou Battle, and the effect was particularly good." The troops are not in a hurry to get to the position, so they set up an anti-slope position here, and when the enemy climbs through the Jin ditch and goes up to the beam, we will give him an anti-slope positional battle and destroy them on the beam with firepower. Then destroy the enemy in the ditch, and by this time the enemy's artillery should have unloaded and left, and arrived in the ditch. With artillery is equal to no artillery, and we can capture some of the enemy's weapons. ”

Hu Xuerong smiled: "If you do this, I guess Jiang Dingwen will cry soon." Hurry up and set up, try to put the enemy up a little more, and the results will be greater. ”

After the enemy's shelling was over, he saw that there was no reaction from the opposite side, and after firing a few more shots, there was no response, and then he was convinced that the troops who had just blocked the attack had withdrawn. Large forces began to swarm across the ditch, and artillery began to cross the ditch along the main road.

Along the way, there were no more blockades, and no mines were stepped on. The troops squirmed in the Jin ditch, and the ones behind kept urging the front to hurry up and hurry through the damn ditch.

At this time, the transportation was not as developed as in later generations, and there were railways, high-speeds, national highways, and provincial highways. From Henan Road to Shaanxi, in addition to going over the mountain, the main road is this one. Tongguan is known as a natural risk, of which this ditch is a big risk. In the era of cold weapons, it was one of the main barriers to defend Tongguan, and it was here that Geshuhan guarded Tongguan and confronted An Lushan. However, now there are aircraft and cannons, and there are loess on both sides of this Jin ditch, and it is impossible to build strong fortifications. Therefore, when Zhou Yi formulated the battle plan, he did not put more effort here, because he was afraid that if he fought here, Chiang Kai-shek's plane would come, and the troops would immediately be exposed to enemy firepower, and the losses would be too great, and Tongguan would not be guaranteed.

This was clearly seen not only by the Red Army, but also by [***]. They simply did not believe that the main forces of the Red Army defending the city dared to hold out here.

Now Hong Chaoyuan wants to establish an anticline position here, then there will be a big surprise, and the result can be imagined.

The enemy came up and crossed a large ditch, and everyone was so tired and out of breath that some soldiers sat down to rest. It's all the same, as long as someone takes the lead, someone will immediately follow suit. After a while, the slope beams were full of [***] soldiers. Later, those who caught up had nowhere to sit, so they had to continue on their way, and those who really wanted to sit down and rest, so they had to go to the people's fields to sit. The angry officers scolded, the whips flew wildly, and this one was played, and the other sat down again. Some of the officers were so angry that they simply sat down themselves.

The more people gather on the slope, the more people gather, and looking at the posture, there are four or five thousand people.

At this time, the second division of the Red Dudu moved.

Light and heavy machine guns, rifles, and submachine guns fired together, and the bullets swirled like the wind and rushed towards the enemy.

This was a massacre, it was a wonderful one-sided slaughter battle staged by the second division of the Duji Division, after this battle, Jiang Dingwen's Ministry of Culture who attacked Tongguan no longer dared to be careless, and his actions became cautious, and he no longer dared to march swaggeringly, and the speed of the attack became a turtle crawling. It shocked all the people who were expecting Jiang Ding's Ministry of Culture and Culture to storm Xi'an.

The blow came so suddenly, and in an impossible place, that all the [***] soldiers could not accept it. If there is a blocking battle when crossing the ditch, everyone can still bear it psychologically. This is all up to the ditch, there can be no danger, who knows that danger will come.

However, the thoughts of the [***] soldiers are all momentary things, they don't have time to think about it, the firepower of the second division is concentrated together, how terrifying it is! The slightly more clever [***] had already crawled on the ground and pretended to be dead, and those who were closer to the edge of the ditch rolled over and rolled down, and the others were all targets, and they didn't even have a chance to resist or shoot, so they went where they should go.

After destroying the enemy on the beam, the Red Army soldiers chased them to the edge of the ditch and fired wildly at the enemy troops who had formed a mass in the Jin ditch, and even set up mortars. At this time, there is basically no need to aim, and there are four or five people who go down with one shot. It was so beaten that the corpses in the Jin ditch pillowed each other and the blood flowed like a river.

Seeing that the enemy on the east side of the Jingou began to set up artillery, the heavy machine guns began to fire, and the fire attack was about to fall on the head, Hong Chaoyuan ordered to bring the captured and captured weapons and ammunition, and withdraw to the anti-slope position to prevent the enemy from shelling.

This battle was fought so refreshingly, the cadres and soldiers of the Second Division of the Independent Division were all enjoying themselves, and Hong Chaoyuan, Hu Xuerong, Zhang Yicheng and others were also in high spirits, and immediately sent a report to Liu Yimin to report the victory.

After sending the telegram, Hong Chaoyuan was still not happy, and even shouted to the dog, come quickly, let Lao Tzu beat you again.

However, the [***] on the other side of the ditch disappointed Hong Chaoyuan, and they no longer crossed the ditch, but concentrated artillery fire and went through the ditch over and over again. When the follow-up troops arrived, they cleaned up the corpses on the road under the cover of artillery fire. Until noon, the enemy did not attack again.

Seeing that there could be no more big opportunities, Hong Chaoyuan ordered the sappers to lay a large number of land mines on the road and slopes, leaving Qi Fengnian to lead a battalion to monitor the enemy, and he led the main force of the division back to the west bank of the Tonggou River.

When Liu Yimin received Hong Chaoyuan's telegram, the Ma Jiajun on the Tianshui battlefield was launching a frantic attack. The artillery regiment, heavy machine gun regiment and 11th division of the Red Seventh Army also opened fire on all fronts, and the battlefield became a pot of porridge.

Liu Yimin observed the offensive situation of Ma Jiajun, and felt that it was really the same as what was written in the books of later generations, the soldiers were extremely brave, and they pounced on it wave after wave. It's a pity that the tactics are too backward, and they basically charge with machine gun fire and artillery fire in a dense formation, and if they encounter troops with less dense firepower, this kind of tactics can often overwhelm the opponent with momentum and win the victory. But when you encounter the direct firepower of your Red Seventh Legion, you can only say sorry.

If this Ma Jiajun can break through the position and enter the white-knuckle battle, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness can be reflected. Later generations said that the Qingma army was inferior to the army in addition to firepower, and other things such as the will to fight, etc., were the same as the army, Liu Yimin thought about it really made sense. However, Ma Jiajun generally said that the gap between the army and the army is too big, you must know that the army is fighting a three-dimensional battle of land, sea and air, how can the quality of the soldiers be comparable to that of the Ma army?

Looking at the tragic situation on the battlefield, Liu Yimin felt that there was no need to observe anymore, and the Ma family's army would soon collapse. Therefore, Liu Yimin returned to the corps headquarters and first sent a report to Hong Chaoyuan, praising the great victory of Jingou and asking the Second Division to send more small troops to attack and harass the enemy, delay the enemy, and strictly prevent the enemy's air force from dispatching. Hu Xuerong was ordered to take specific responsibility, supervise the work of clearing the fortified walls along the Weinan and Tongguan lines, and organize the work teams and militia to cover the transfer of the masses. Then he sent a report to Zhang Hongtao to ask about the movements of the Jin Suijun.

Zhang Hongtao called back, Jin Suijun was preparing to cross the river, and it was estimated that he would cross the river soon, but unfortunately there was no heavy artillery, otherwise he could give them two blows.

Liu Yimin briefed Zhang Hongtao on the situation of the Jingou victory of the Second Independent Division, and asked the Third Independent Division to learn from the Second Independent Division, use its brains, concentrate its troops and firepower, fight the enemy all the way, and deter other enemies. Fu Zhuting, the political commissar of the Third Division, was asked to personally supervise the Jianbi Qingye to ensure that the Jin Suijun would not find a grain of grain and drink a mouthful of clean well water.

After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin was about to send a telegram ordering Li Lingfeng and Wang Laohu to take action, and He Xinghua sent a telegram from Vice Chairman Zhou, asking him not to sabotage the Tongpu Railway and Luoyang Airport for the time being, and informing him of Zhang Qun's protest.

Liu Yimin was depressed in his heart, what was Chiang Kai-shek doing, how could he propose not to bomb Xi'an, and not to let the Red Army destroy the airport and railroad in exchange. But this is also good, Xi'an can temporarily escape a catastrophe.

Although the Second Division had a good start today and fought a beautiful battle, Liu Yimin knew that in the face of the 200,000 well-equipped main force of the Central Army, the Second Division would not be able to bear it, even if the whole division was sacrificed. The only thing that can be done is to block the attack and buy time for the main force to rush back. If he moves slowly, let the central army occupy Xi'an or Weinan, and want to take it back from them, I am afraid it will be basically impossible. The Chengdu incident was just a special case, and if the Sichuan army was prepared at that time, even if it could take it by itself, I am afraid that it would have suffered heavy casualties.

Thinking of this, Liu Yimin couldn't sit still, and he couldn't wait to end the battle quickly. He ordered Huang Su and Cai Zhong to go one and the other to the heavy machine gun regiment, and urged the artillery regiment and the heavy machine gun regiment to concentrate their fire on the enemy's assembly place and completely disperse the enemy. Liu Jianli, Li Qing, Feng Dafei, and Chen Dayong were ordered to speed up the encirclement, concentrate firepower to attack the enemy, and prepare to launch a general attack on the whole front.

After giving the order, Liu Yimin called Hu Laohu and Zhang Haitao and asked them to pull the troops up, preparing to give Ma Jiajun a fatal blow at the end.

The brave Ma Jiajun finally lowered his head in the face of powerful artillery fire, Ma Yuanhai looked at the corpses all over the mountains, his eyes were full of tears, and after sending a report to Ma Bufang saying goodbye in the next life, he got on the horse and led these remnants of the defeated army to run in the direction of the river, hoping to find a way out from there.

Ma Yuanhai didn't find that Ma Hongkui was gone.

Ma Hongkui is a man who has been through the storm for a long time. His father, Ma Fuxiang, not only ate well in political and military circles, but also contributed to Islamic culture. It's a pity that Ma Hongkui didn't learn much from his old father, but he interpreted the word greed clearly.

Ma Hongkui saw through the situation on the battlefield at a glance and knew that if he didn't slip away, there would only be two endings: being captured or killed. Therefore, he asked the commander of the guard battalion to find a few sets of clothes for the heavy people, change them with a few personal guards, take advantage of the chaos to hide, and prepare to wait for the Red Army to pursue and kill the large army, and then leave the road.

After receiving Ma Yuanhai's last telegram, Ma Bufang in Gangu suddenly softened, and he no longer had the original arrogance of killing and decisiveness. God, what is this doing, yesterday the attack was launched, and today the army of 70,000 is gone. It's 70,000 cows, and the red bandits have to be caught for ten days and a half months! How could it be over in such a short period of time?

It's over, and the struggles and efforts of several generations are all over. This time it was completely fooled by Chiang Kai-shek. This bald head is really not a fucking thing, he doesn't even send a plane, and he can't listen to him anymore in the future.

In the future, do you have a future? If you lose the army, what do you have?

Ma Bufang cried for a while, laughed for a while, and none of the guards dared to persuade him. In the end, it was the chief of staff Ma Delai who persuaded him. As soon as the two of them discussed, they hurried back to Xining, and after they returned, they could also mobilize militia groups to stick to Xining. If you really can't do it, you can leave Xining with your assets and family.

Ma Bufang no longer hesitated, and immediately acted, quickly fleeing Gangu with the military police to protect his own safety, and rushed towards Qinghai.

Seeing the remnants of the Ma Jiajun running in the direction of the Fourth Division, Liu Yimin immediately ordered Chen Dayong to resolutely block the enemy and not let go of a single one.

By this time, the 4th Division had crossed the river and established a position on the north bank of the river.

As soon as he saw the remnants of the Ma Jiajun rushing towards his position, Chen Dayong asked Liu Yi, Li Deguang, and Shi Ran to go to a regiment alone, and asked them to tell the soldiers that the only division had been opened in Tianshui City yesterday, and the only regiment was praised by the regiment commander; The 2nd Division of the Independent Division achieved a great victory in Jingou at Tongguan today, and the commander of the corps also praised it; The Dusan Division met the Jin Sui army by the Yellow River, which was a tough and vicious battle. Now only our Fourth Division has not opened. The regiment dared to let the enemy go, and the regiment commander and political commissar were all dismissed.

After a few people left, Chen Dayong went directly to the positions of the 3rd Heavy Machine Gun Battalion and the 3rd Mortar Battalion left by the corps commander, and instructed them to fight, and they must paralyze the enemy in front of the position.

Liu Lizhi is now the head of the 10th Independent Regiment, and he and political commissar Yu Wenfeng are on the front line. Seeing that the remnants of the Ma Jiajun were swarming in, and the 3rd Heavy Machine Gun Battalion and the 3rd Mortar Battalion had already opened fire, beating the chaotic remnants of the enemy in front of the position, Liu Lizhi immediately ordered the whole regiment to open fire and hit the enemy hard from the right side.

The heavy firepower started, the 10th Regiment of the Independence Regiment started, the 11th Regiment led by Wang Dingcheng and Geng Qiang, and the 12th Regiment led by Cao Jin and Wu Jiasheng also started one after another.

As soon as Liu Yimin saw that the enemy had completely collapsed and that his elk was squeezing into the flat land of eight or nine square kilometers and fleeing in the east, he ordered the trumpet to be sounded and ordered the troops to attack on all fronts.

Hu Laohu, who had already seen others fighting, heard the horn of the charge, and led the cavalry regiment to take the lead in rushing towards the enemy, and Zhang Haitao, who was chasing behind, angrily scolded his two legs for being too short to catch up with the cavalry. I wondered if it was time to suggest to the corps commander after the war that the guard regiment should be changed into a cavalry guard regiment.

(To be continued)
