However, fighting brothers and fathers and sons. When Meng Wenyue roared violently and pounced on Ma Deyuan like a god, Meng Wenrong, who followed his brother closely and was the commander of a battalion, but insisted on holding the banner of the team himself, also did not have the slightest slackness. He didn't shout, just swished and took two steps forward, taking advantage of Ma Deyuan's busy parrying his brother's heavy knife skills, the flagpole in his hand skillfully retracted and stretched.

"Dang!" With the deafening sound of the knife edge colliding, "Pounce!" The sharp tip of the flag spear almost at the same time, lightning pierced into Ma Deyuan's soft underbelly, Meng Wenrong twisted his hands, his arms screamed violently, and a roar squeezed out between his teeth, "Go die!" ”。

"Ahh Ma Deyuan suddenly raised his head and let out a forked wail, and the whole person was immediately picked up and jumped up with the momentum of the flag gun, and before his feet hit the ground, Meng Wenyue's big ring knife had already rolled back again, and with a "click", Ma Deyuan's evil head left his body forever.

The big flag in Meng Wenrong's hand danced again, "For the sake of the Celestial Empire, go forward!" The flag flew, and the blood flowing from the flag gun stained the snow-white streamer red.

Guided by the blood-colored banners, the red soldiers roared like an unstoppable tide of rage towards the last formed by the Guardian Army.

"After fighting for so long before, the time when the Ren Wu riot army was wiped out was a truly brutal battle. Especially the final stage. Even Liu Changlin, who is known for his bravery, had such feelings afterwards, and of course, there were some unspeakable regrets.

"Actually, the battle started first, just because we fought suddenly and skillfully, and it can't be said that the rebel army has no combat effectiveness. Think about it, when the left battalion of the Hui Riot Army located in Miaowan has been defeated by several divisions of the Red Eighteenth Army, and we have basically eliminated Yu Yanlu's rear camp with the cooperation of the 69th Division of the Red Eighteenth Army that arrived later, but in this way, the military headquarters of the Red Eighteenth Army still encountered an ambush by the Broken Hui Riot Army on the way to Zhai's house, and Captain Li Wenjun was wounded by two arrows, and there were many outlaws in the Hui Rebel Army. It was precisely because of the injury of Commander Li that the front-line command of the final general attack of the remaining bandits was temporarily changed to Li Hongzao, the commander of the Red Nineteenth Army. ”

Li Wenxue, commander of the 18th Red Army, who was born as a farmer of the Yi nationality, led the Yi peasants to hold a great uprising with Wang Taijie, Li Xuedong and others in the Midu Tiansheng Camp in the Ailao Mountains of Yunnan Province before the Red Army advanced into Yunnan. Subsequently, Li Wenxue, who was elected as the "Generalissimo of the Yi Family's Soldiers and Horses", cooperated with Du Wenxiu's righteous army, actively responded to the Red Army of the Celestial Empire entering Yunnan, and made immortal contributions to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's restoration of Yunnan.

Li Wenxue, who came from a poor family and had never entered the school for a day, only relied on his usual attention and perseverance to roughly understand some words, but on his body, just like his burly body that was not at all, he rarely had the roughness of a poor buddy who faced the loess all day long. Especially after the whole army before entering Sichuan in Yunnan, Li Wenxue became clearer and better at thinking, and he held all kinds of propaganda pamphlets in the Heavenly Army all day long and couldn't put it down, so that many old friends would always laugh at "Li Wenxue probably wants to take the top prize".

Being diligent in learning always has the advantage of being diligent in learning. In the campaign to recover Sichuan, the newly formed Red Eighteenth Army based on the previous Yi Riot Army, as the vanguard of the Central Route Army, did not live up to expectations, all the way through the pass, not only led the main force to first take Ningyuan Mansion (Fuzhi Xichang), Shun Lì Tong Guò large Yi gathering area, along the way spread and led the spirit of resistance of the vast number of poor Yi people, and in the subsequent battles such as forcibly crossing the Dadu River and capturing Yazhou (now Ya'an), it played the prestige of the Red Eighteenth Army. A Red Eighteenth Army, which could only be regarded as a little brother before the Red First Army, became a first-class main force under the leadership of Li Wenxue.

It is a pity that an ambush by mistake by dozens of "stragglers" caused Li Wenxue to withdraw from the battlefield at the most critical moment of exterminating Ren Wu. What is even more regrettable is that one of the two arrows in his body went deep into his left chest, and although he still survived tenaciously, it led to a long-term weakness of his body. When the First World War ended and the Red Celestial Empire began to enter a period of prosperity and development of stability and peace, this outstanding general of the Red Army, one of the ten major minority generals of the Red Celestial Empire, turned into an immortal monument in the "Martyr's Garden".

Just as Liu Changlin said later, "All the troops participating in the battle, except for the troops of the Red Thirteenth Army in the north, which were slightly better, the Red Nineteenth Army and the various units of the Red Eighteenth Army to which we belonged, all spent a whole day in battle, pursuit, and re-fighting. Of course, we are tired, and the same is true for those who return to the rebels, and now they are fighting the will. ”

But with what can this will be properly revealed?

Beat hard, beat to the death! This was the only thought in the mind of Li Hongzao, the commander of the 19th Red Army, who succeeded Li Wenxue as the commander of the front. Because Qin Rigang and Lai Hanying had turned to all their strength to start planning against Mu Tushan, who was still dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Period in Anding City, the post of commander-in-chief of the front-line clean-up that was originally entrusted to Li Wenxue was temporarily appointed to Li Hongzao.

The battle in front of us was fought so smoothly that the feeling of underestimating the enemy naturally arose, and this underestimation of the enemy spread among the officers and men of the Red Army on the front line. The paralysis and carelessness of the avant-garde troops due to the underestimation of the enemy was also one of the main reasons for the sneak attack on the military headquarters of the Red Eighteenth Army during the march. Li Hongzao, who can fight and is accustomed to fighting, is also making such mistakes.

The general offensive began, and in the west and south directions, the three main divisions of the Red Nineteenth Army pressed on all fronts, while the Red Thirteenth Army, in the north, a complete elite division equipped with foreign guns, was ordered to hold on to its original position. To the east, the two divisions of the Red Eighteenth Army have also been deployed, but Liu Changlin's cavalry division only has the share of climbing and looking.

Five infantry divisions, more than 10,000 people, went to cut hedgehogs and gather a group, and the five or six thousand remnants of the panicked army were defeated, no matter how you say it, it is enough. Actually, this is not Li Hongzao's complete idea. As a warrior who gallops on the field, no one is willing to share the fat in his mouth with others, and Li Hongzao is even more so. The Red Nineteenth Army worked as a "porter" in Hanzhong for a short time, and for this, from top to bottom, all of them were full of resentment. "We are not the main force now, we have to suffer from this, the color heads are someone else's" helpless words like this, Li Hongzao has slipped out of his mouth many times.

This time, he rushed out of Hanzhong to Huining to participate in the war, although only three divisions came, and one division was left far away in Hanzhong, in Li Hongzao's words, it was "to be a caretaker and a nursing home", and there may have been this opportunity, which has already made Li Hongzao and his officers and soldiers very happy. Even, Li Hongzao secretly felt "lucky and grateful" for the appearance of the Shaanxi Hui Riot Army, if there were no these dog mongrels, I am afraid that Lao Tzu would have been a "porter".

"General Li Hongzao is too selfish." When Liu Changlin mentioned these things, he had a helpless expression on his face, "I didn't ask our cavalry division to participate in the battle, saying that due to the limited terrain, this final battlefield was not conducive to the deployment of the cavalry." It can't be said that there is no truth at all, but everyone understands that the Red Nineteenth Army obviously wants to seize all the final credit. But everyone underestimated the thugs in the encirclement. ”
