On a small plateau at Gulingtou near Quanzhou, the Red 18th Regiment was struggling to support it.

The Red 18th Regiment retreated from the Xinwei blocking position in the morning, and the 1,500-strong Red 18th Regiment suffered heavy casualties in the Xinwei blocking battle, and there were still more than 800 people left when retreating, and nearly half of the soldiers spilled their blood on the main position of Nanmu Village and the Chenjiabei position in Guanyin Mountain, Xinwei.

When they retreated to Gulingtou near Quanzhou, the two regiments of the 24th Division of the Gui Army, which were chasing after them, bit them. The Gui Army is the two main regiments of the 24th Division of the Gui Seventh Army with the title of Steel Army, although they were heavily hit by the Red 5th Division and the 18th Regiment in the Xinwei Blockade Battle, and suffered heavy casualties, but they were well equipped, and the soldiers had no problem resting and eating, so their physical strength was good. On the contrary, the commanders and fighters of the 18th Red Regiment first fought fiercely with the enemy at the waterwheel, did not close their eyes for four days and four nights, and after arriving at the Xinwei blocking position, they entered the battle almost without rest. When they withdrew to Gulingtou, the soldiers were overtired, hungry, cold, and lacked ammunition, plus there were planes in the sky that kept bombing, and the Gui army surrounded on all sides of the ground kept attacking. Now there are only more than 500 people left in the 18th Regiment, almost all of them are wounded, bullets and grenades have been used up, many bayonets have been bent, the political commissar and the main leaders of the battalions and companies have been sacrificed, and the seriously wounded regiment commander Zeng Chunjian and his soldiers are crouched on the position, waiting for the last moment, the moment when the last drop of blood will be shed for Soviet New China.

When Liu Yimin led the Sharp Knife Company to run forward and arrived at Gulingtou, the Gui army was sorting out the team and preparing to launch a final charge to completely wipe out the Red Eighteenth Regiment that was holding its position.

Liu Yimin asked the team to stop, take a little rest, and prepare for battle.

Liu Yimin and Cai Zhong took Wang Dahu, Shen Nantang, Wang Xinyun, Zhao Runqing, and Wang Tongsheng to observe closely. Looking at the formation of the Gui Army, Liu Yimin, who was a doctoral student at the National Defense University in the future, was happy: Looking at the banner Gui Army, there were probably two regiments, although they were not disabled, they looked like they were broken to the point of breaking their bones. The two regiments are more than 2,000 people, and they are sorting out their teams, and more than 2,000 people are gathered together, and the formation is very neat and dense. A commander was lecturing, and a wounded man sat in the open space next to him. Probably thinking that there was no threat, the mortars and heavy machine guns of the Gui army were on the improvised positions built next to the ranks, and the soldiers also stood straight and listened to the commander's lecture. The gentle hillside was littered with the corpses of the Gui and Red Army, and it looked extremely tragic.

Such a good opportunity, if you don't grasp it, even God will scold you. Liu Yimin thought for a while, and immediately turned back to a few people and said: "Don't miss the opportunity, I am determined to lead the troops to attack the Gui army." Director Cai led the messenger to report to the division commander, so that the large army could move quickly and immediately complete the encirclement of the Gui army. The sniper squad controls the enemy's heavy machine guns and mortars to ensure that the enemy's machine guns do not bark and the cannons do not sound. All the machine guns and submachine guns in front of me, and attack with me. ”

Director Cai Zhong said: "Company Commander Liu, there are too few of us, don't you wait a minute, the big army will come up immediately."

Liu Yimin glanced at him: "No, when the large army comes up, the Gui army will start the formation." That would be a victory, and the casualties would be great. Say no more, execute the order. ”

Several platoon commanders saluted together: "Yes!" ”

The deputy division commander of the 24th Division of the Gui Army who led the team to direct the pursuit was very depressed, and the 24th Division was ordered to occupy Xinwei together with the 44th Division and blitzkrieg at the Jieshou Ferry, who knew that the Red Fifth Division of the Red Army arrived half an hour earlier than himself, and in this half an hour, the 24th Division and the 44th Division attacked Xinwei for three days, and suffered heavy casualties. Finally, the Red Fifth Division withdrew, and the Red 18th Regiment came again. From the night of the 30th to the morning of the 1st, the Red 18th Regiment was finally defeated, and the division commander let himself lead the two main regiments to chase after him, and the rest of the troops stayed with the 44th Division to search for the remnants of the enemy in Xinwei, who knew that the main force of the division and the 44th Division had a fierce battle with the Red 34th Division that arrived later. Just received information that the artillery battalion of the army headquarters carried by the 44th Division was also bombed by the red bandits, and suffered heavy losses. Thinking about the fierce battle between the 43rd Division of the Gui Army and the Reading Regiment and the Red Fourth Division of the Red Third Army Corps in Guanghuapu, and the other two divisions had already killed the Jieshou Ferry, pursuing the head of the communist army, and would make great contributions, but he was blocked here by the Red Eighteenth Regiment that had been disabled, and every attack was victorious, but he was still driven out of the position by the Red bandits, and he felt inexplicable when he thought about it. Look at the team in front of you, after a few days of fierce fighting, more than half of the casualties of the two elite main regiments are these Guangxi soldiers who have participated in many wars, his grandmother's, fight!

Thinking of this, the deputy division commander of the Gui Army shouted murderously to the team: "Brothers, the red bandits have reached the end of the crossbow, rush forward, and reward 10 oceans for each captured, and 5 oceans for killing one." Below me, the regiment commander, battalion commander, company commander, and platoon commander led the charge. Whoever dares to retreat, immediately shot! ”

At this time, the adjutant reported that the sentry reported that the army group had sent a law enforcement team.

The deputy division commander of the Gui Army turned his head and saw that the soldiers of a company were all holding guns and a company commander was walking towards him, and a row of machine guns was at the head. Behind it was a slip of submachine guns. After a closer look, the face of the company commander was very unfamiliar, and he was busy asking what he was doing, and Liu Yimin replied to the law enforcement team of the Fourth Army as he walked. The enemy's deputy division commander had a turn in his mind, no, he had never heard of the group army sending a law enforcement team, and besides, there was a law enforcement team, and he had never seen this leader himself. You must know that the Gui Army has only one group army, under the jurisdiction of two armies and five divisions, and the generals are either classmates or comrades-in-arms during the battle to unify Guangxi, and most of the senior generals were born in the Baoding Military Academy or Lu Rongting's model battalion, and they have a very good relationship with each other, and the division commanders, regiment commanders, and group army headquarters are very familiar. At another glance, the small force had dispersed and was closing in on its own team in battle formation. The deputy division commander of the Gui Army suddenly realized, where the hell is the law enforcement team of the group army, it is clearly a sneak attack by red bandits in disguise! So he took out his gun and lay down on the ground, not forgetting to shout; "Brothers, they are red bandits, disperse and shoot!"

It's late, it's all late.

At the same time that the deputy division commander of the Gui Army was lying down, Liu Yimin picked up the submachine gun, pulled off the jacket, and the soldiers of the top soldier company opened the jacket almost at the same time, 9 light machine guns plus 34 submachine guns and dozens of rifles fired together with Liu Yimin and the deputy platoon commander and squad leader, and the magazines of the machine guns and submachine guns had just been completed, and the soldiers threw dozens of grenades, and then there was a chorus of machine guns and submachine guns with different magazines, and then there was another rain of grenades. Over and over again, the bullets chased Gui Jun's figure like the wind.

It was a standard massacre, but it was the Red Army who carried the knife, and it was the Gui Army who was killed. The soldiers of the Gui army were completely frightened, and fell in rows like wheat harvesting. Some of the Gui soldiers who reacted quickly finally pushed the bullets and loaded them, and just as they were about to raise their guns to shoot, they were hit by the bullets of the sniper platoon soldiers, and their bodies collapsed. Only the soldiers who were standing a little further away had time to climb down or flee in all directions. However, they couldn't run, and the loud military horn sounded, and nearly 4,000 soldiers of the Red 34th Division surrounded them with bright bayonets and machine guns.

The Red Eighteenth Regiment, which was running out of ammunition and food on the high ground and waiting for the death of the Gui army, heard the long-lost charge horn, and the seriously injured regiment commander Zeng Chunjian stood up at once: "Comrades, it's our Red 34th Division that has arrived, the trumpeter, blow the charge trumpet, comrades, bayonets, rush with me!" "The Red Eighteenth Regiment, with more than 500 people, rushed from the high ground to the fleeing Gui army.

Later military historians who evaluated this battle believed that this classic raid battle that took place at Gulingtou had reached several perfections: First, the timing was perfect, the Gui army was doing a centralized mobilization before the final charge, the commander was giving lectures, the soldiers were gathered, the bullets were too late to load, and the artillerymen and heavy machine gunners were standing in front of the fortifications, completely out of guard. The second is to camouflage the enemy's perfect encounter, camouflage the law enforcement team of the enemy group army, and the vigilant sentries not only dare not interrogate, but also directly bring the team to the assembly place of the troops. Third, the firepower configuration is perfect, the machine gun and submachine gun are arranged in the forefront, the fan strafe fire, after a round of rifle strikes, the grenade is thrown in a concentrated manner, the cover machine gun and the submachine gun are replaced, and then the machine gun and submachine gun are fired in turn, and then the grenade is thrown in a concentrated manner, without interval, in one go. Fourth, the battle loss ratio is perfect, in addition to the correspondent to protect Director Cai Zhong to report to the large army, 112 officers and soldiers participated in the raid, the enemy's strength ratio was about 20 to 1, the whole battle lasted less than 5 minutes, the Red 34th Division participated in the battle did not have a single casualty, the two main regiments of the 24th Division of the Gui Army were completely annihilated, more than 2,500 people below the deputy division commander of the Gui Army were killed, and 120 people were captured, plus the number of enemies destroyed by the Red Eighteenth Regiment in Gulingtou before, a total of 3,400 people of the two regiments of the Gui Army were annihilated, and 12 mortars and 12 heavy machine guns were captured. There are 54 light machine guns, nearly 2,000 rifles, submachine guns, and pistols, and countless ammunition. Military historians unanimously believe that this was the biggest victory of the Red Army since the Long March, and some military historians believe that this battle held a groundbreaking ceremony for Liu Yimin to win the titles of master tactician and master of sneak attack warfare.

The battle is over. The ground was littered with the corpses of Gui soldiers and abandoned weapons. The fighters were busy cleaning the battlefield, collecting weapons and ammunition, escorting the prisoners.

One of the captives muttered and cursed the Guangxi dialect, which was difficult for the soldiers to understand. The little soldier in charge of the escort was impatient, and went up to the butt of a rifle: "What are you talking about?" Be careful that Lao Tzu kills you. The squad leader next to him saw it and immediately shouted: "Xiao Li, don't beat and scold the prisoners." Have you forgotten the discipline of our Red Army? The little soldier cried out at once, and said aggrievedly: "Squad leader, look at it, the people lying on the hillside above are our comrades-in-arms." I hate these white dogs when I see them, and I really want to kill all these bad guys. The squad leader sighed, choked back tears, and said, "Let's go, don't violate our discipline." ”

Division Commander Chen Shuxiang and Political Commissar Cheng Cuilin led the division and regiment leaders to inspect the battlefield, looking at the excitement of the soldiers when they cleaned up the battlefield, Division Commander Chen Shuxiang smiled and said to Political Commissar Cheng Cuilin: "Old Cheng, have you noticed it, since this Liu Yimin came, our luck has become extremely good, and the battle has been captured. ”

Political Commissar Cheng Cuilin also smiled and said: "Yes, the morale of the soldiers is very high, sweeping away the decadence of fighting since the Long March." It seems that the key to improving morale is to win the battle. ”

Division Commander Chen Shuxiang responded: "Yes, this has been the case since ancient times, the more the troops win battles and win big battles, the higher their morale and stronger their combat effectiveness. ”

Political Commissar Cheng Cuilin said: "When I was on Guanyin Mountain, I felt that I was about to come to the end of the revolution, who would have thought that Liu Yimin would emerge, not only let us break out of the encirclement, but also fought such a big victory." When our Red Army is in danger, a large number of heroes will emerge, and Liu Yimin is our hero. I have to ask him what he thinks of our party. ”

"Okay, guard, order Liu Yimin to come to see me."
