Chapter 247: Complete the Siege
On the battlefield, after receiving Zhang Xinghan's order, Liu Jianguo immediately commanded the two infantry regiments of the post to withdraw the blockade and make way for the rescue troops of the Northeast Army to meet the siege troops. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The regiments of the 10th Independent Division and the urban defense units of the 4th Division immediately launched a fierce attack on the Northeast Army, entangled the reinforcements of the Northeast Army.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two infantry regiments of Liu Jianguo's command post began to make a detour to the west by bypassing the battlefield in two ways.
"Brigade seat, no, the rescue force is entangled by the enemy, and it can't get out of the battle in a short time!" In the headquarters, an officer of the 22nd Independent Brigade reported to Li Shusen with a panicked expression.
"=Pig = Pig = Island = Novel === What?" Li Shusen's face changed drastically, he got up quickly, and looked at He Lichong with panic in his eyes.
He Lichong also looked solemn and fell into hard thought.
"Brother He, you quickly think of a way, what should we do?" Li Shusen was anxious.
He Lichong said directly to the officer: "Pass the order, all troops should get out of the battle as soon as possible, don't fall in love with the battle, and retreat in the direction of Phoenix Mountain!" ”
"Sir, no, the tank units of the Northeast New Army are on a rampage, and they have already shocked our troops, and all the troops are about to be scattered, and they can't get out of the battle at all!" The officer said with a sad face.
"Then you can withdraw as much as you want, and you can't entangle with them anymore, otherwise as soon as dawn comes, it's all fucking over!" He Li roared impulsively.
The officer looked at Li Shusen in embarrassment, Li Shusen nodded helplessly, he hurriedly saluted, and then turned around and left hurriedly.
After some chase and assault, the two tank regiments of the Northeast New Army have been wedged into the Northeast Army like two sharp blades.
The on-board machine guns of the tank and combat vehicles gave full play to their power at this moment, and wherever the scorching tongues of fire went, they howled miserably, and the stubborn Northeast Army fell one after another.
More infantry chased after them with guns, and most of the Northeast Army, which had been beaten by the tank troops, had no intention of resisting.
Under the shouting and reprimanding of the Northeast New Army, they threw away their weapons one after another. Squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.
Due to the rapid detour of Liu Jianguo's troops, the rear roads of the 7th Independent Brigade and several regiments of the 22nd Brigade were almost completely cut off.
But less than half of the troops broke through, and most of the rest were not annihilated, of course, not many of them really died, and most of them were forced to surrender and become prisoners.
After ordering the troops to leave the battle, He Lichong and Li Shusen took the lead in evacuating the headquarters with a group of guards, intending to withdraw towards Phoenix Mountain.
Just halfway there. Zhang Xinghan commanded Guo Zhongqin to lead the guard battalion to suddenly kill.
The officers and men of the well-equipped guard battalion opened fire with all their firepower, and dozens of general-purpose machine guns guarded both sides of the road, forming crossfire to block the westward escape of He Lichong and Li Shusen's guard troops.
"Brother He, we are in ambush, what should we do?" In a depression, Li Shusen climbed to He Lichong's side in a panic, lowered his head and asked.
"Damn, this time we are planted, Zhang Xinghan raised by a son of a bitch. Lao Tzu fought with them! He Lichong pressed his pistol against the eaves of his steel helmet, and his dusty face was full of hideous colors.
After speaking, he had to get up and lead the charge.
"Brother He, you can't do this. The Northeast New Army has long been prepared, and rushing forward like this is to send it to death, leaving Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, and the main force has somewhat broken through.
Let's withdraw first. Gather the troops, hold on to the earth mountain and wait for help, and quickly ask the young marshal for help. Li Shusen hurriedly grabbed him.
He Lichong hesitated. In the end, he sighed angrily, and retreated with Li Shusen.
"Brothers, chase me!" Guo Zhong held a flower device in his hand and raised his arms and shouted.
Hundreds of officers and soldiers of the guard battalion hurriedly got up, opened fire with guns, and chased after Guo Zhong.
Guo Zhong led the guard battalion to pursue all the way to the dirt mountain where He Lichong and Li Shusen were originally commanded.
This is the remnant area of Phoenix Mountain, but it is different if you want to enter the mountain, because it is separated from the real Phoenix Mountain Mountain by a moat dozens of meters wide.
At the same time, the main force of the Northeast New Army also caught up with the rout of less than two regiments of He and Li.
The two divisions met and surrounded the rest of the Northeast Army in the mountains and forests.
Due to terrain restrictions, the tank regiment could not continue the assault, and Liu Jianguo and Du Ting quickly reported the situation to Zhang Xinghan while commanding the troops to surround it.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Xinghan arrived at the battlefield in a car with a platoon of guards.
Liu Jianguo, Du Ting, Guo Zhong, Liu Dongqing and others immediately greeted them.
"Commander, Commander......" Everyone stepped forward to salute, and Guo Zhong and Liu Dongqing still had obvious black ash on their faces.
"The brethren have worked hard." Zhang Xinghan returned the salute and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
"The main force of the Northeast Army has basically been defeated by us, the number of prisoners is still being counted, and the rest of the troops have retreated to this hill with the small army pursued by Battalion Commander Guo just now, and they are fighting as trapped beasts!" Liu Jianguo turned around and pointed to the Tushan Road where the firelight flashed from time to time with Zhang Xinghan.
"The small force that Zhongzi pursued just now, if I guessed correctly, should be the headquarters of He and Li." Zhang Xinghan squinted and looked ahead.
"No wonder the firepower is stronger than the ordinary Northeast Army, just now, I found that the guy in the opponent's hand is really not weak, that is, the machine gun is less than ours." Guo Zhong suddenly realized.
"Commander, what should we do next? Do you continue to attack, or wait until dawn to call the air force to bomb and then attack, and completely annihilate them! Du Ting and Liu Dongqing were both eager to try, and their eyes were full of war.
"Don't worry, they have become turtles in the urn, and it is already a sure thing to annihilate them, let's surround them first, let's go back to the city first." Zhang Xinghan said thoughtfully.
"Yes!" Liu, Du and others immediately stepped forward one after another.
Riding back to the city in a car, the embers of the explosion that had not yet burned could be seen everywhere, and the corpses of soldiers on both sides could be seen everywhere.
But more often than not, there were groups of Northeast Army prisoners, who were being escorted by soldiers to the city.
Meanwhile.
On the dirt mountain, He Lichong was urging the communications personnel to send a telegram to Zhang Xueliang asking for help.
After the signal corps sends the message.
He Li exhaled with relief and came to a huge mountain rock.
Li Shusen was standing on it and looking ahead, some unburned fires flickering and swaying in the dark night.
"Brother He, I'm afraid we're going to plant this battle." Li Shusen said worriedly.
He Lichong didn't say much. Of course, he knew what Li Shusen's mouth meant.
After a while, he forced his spirit and said, "How many more people do we have?" ”
"Less than halfway through." Li Shusen replied with a dead face.
He Lichong's body was a little shaky, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the two brigades of nearly 20,000 troops have now lost more than half.
"I have sent an urgent telegram to the young marshal asking for help, and I believe that the young marshal will not give up on us." He Li Chong patted Li Shusen's shoulder and cheered up: "Hold on, reinforcements will definitely arrive." ”
"We have less than three regiments of troops, and in such a place, once after dawn, the air force and heavy artillery units of the Northeast New Army can pose a great threat to our side. Can it be kept? Li Shusen fell into a lack of confidence and cried with a sad face.
"If you can't keep it, you have to defend it, the big deal is to die, the battle is like this, we don't have the face to go back to see the young marshal!" He Lichong's heart is like a dead ash.
At the mention of death, Li Shusen's face suddenly changed, and there was obvious fear in his eyes.
……………………
On the railway line leading to Shanhaiguan, a military column is rumbling and galloping.
Located in a carriage in the middle of the train, Zhang Xueliang was resting on the bed.
Suddenly. A quick knock on the door woke him up.
Zhang Xueliang heard this, "Who?" ”
"Young marshal, it's me, Dazhang!" The voice of the attendant adjutant Chen Dazhang came from outside.
Zhang Xueliang opened the door. I saw Chen Dazhang holding a piece of telegram, with a hint of gloom between his eyebrows, and saluted him: "Young marshal, it's not good." I just received an urgent telegram for help from General He. ”
"What? Telegram for help? Zhang Xueliang suddenly fell asleep, and his face was stunned.
Chen Dazhang handed him the telegram in his hand in embarrassment, and said sadly: "General He called to say." The 7th and 22nd Brigades of the Independent were suddenly attacked by the main force of the Northeast New Army during the attack, and they joined the defenders in the city.
Our army suffered a crushing defeat from the enemy. ”
Zhang Xueliang took the telegram with a shocked face, and after reading it in a hurry, his hands were already trembling obviously.
The corners of his mouth twitched and he gritted his teeth: "The main force of the Northeast New Army? Aren't they in Jinzhou? How did it suddenly appear in the rising sun? ”
"I don't know what I do." Chen Dazhang lowered his head: "Could it be that the intelligence is inaccurate." ”
"What about Chief of Staff Rong? Call him to me right away. Zhang Xueliang raised his hand and commanded.
"Yes!" Chen Dazhang hurriedly saluted and took the order.
After a while, Rong Jin arrived in a hurry.
Zhang Xueliang handed He Lichong's telegram for help to him, and said expressionlessly: "Chief of Staff, what do you say is going on?" ”
Rong Jin took the telegram and hurriedly looked at it, looked up at Zhang Xueliang's eyes full of anger with a miserable face, and said with a cold shudder: "Young marshal, this must be Zhang Xinghan, this person is extremely cunning, it must be him, taking advantage of the fact that my main force has not arrived, take the risk of concentrating troops to besiege my vanguard!" ”
"Bastard, order He Zhuguo to immediately send reinforcements! In any case, the 7th and 22nd independent brigades must be rescued from Lao Tzu! Zhang Xueliang clenched his fists and roared angrily.
"Yes!" Rong Jin was already in a state of confusion at this time, and hurriedly bowed his head in response.
……………………
In Chaoyang City, more than half an hour has passed.
Zhang Xinghan was drinking tea in the headquarters when a rush of footsteps sounded from outside.
Zhang Xinghan looked up, Liu Jianguo walked in quickly, put down the teacup, Zhang Xinghan got up and asked, "Jianguo, how is it, has the result been counted?" ”
Liu Jianguo couldn't help but smile and said: "Commander, we made a lot of money this time, guess how many people we captured this time?" ”
"How much?" Zhang Xinghan asked.
"There are more than 5,000 people, the back road of the two battalions in the north of the city has been cut off, and they have almost surrendered in formation, in addition, there are many Northeast Army troops that have been dispersed, and the troops are divided into forces to pursue." Liu Jianguo said with a smile.
"Okay, five thousand people, counting those who were scattered and killed, the strength of the Northeast Army on the mountain is less than half." Zhang Xinghan groaned thoughtfully. (To be continued......)
