The gunfire of the Nianguan uprising terrified the Kuomintang authorities, and Chairman Chiang personally ordered Xu Kexiang, commander of the Third Independent Division, to "attack and suppress on the same day, and there must be no mistake." After Xu was instructed, he immediately took the whole division and traveled north from Lechang, Guangdong day and night, in a vain attempt to extinguish the flames of the uprising in southern Hunan. After Mr. Zhu learned the information, he immediately led his troops to secretly withdraw from Yizhang County, hid in the countryside, and cooperated with local farmers to counterattack the incoming enemy.

Because they were very familiar with the local geographical situation, because of the recommendation of He Changming and others, and because of their excellent performance in the first capture of the Yizhang County Police Station, the two squads of Li Jiansheng and Li Fei were transferred out to participate in the leading vanguard unit and cooperate with the large army to counterattack the enemy.

This Xu Kexiang was the culprit in the "Ma-Ri Incident", originally the commander of the 33rd Regiment of the 36th Army of the Kuomintang He Jian, but was promoted to the commander of the 3rd Division of the 12th Army for his meritorious service in the massacre of workers and peasants. The victory of the Yizhang Uprising shook the entire southern Hunan and northern Guangdong. This time, after receiving the order of Chairman Chiang, he immediately led his troops to attack Yizhang, intending to form a north-south flank attack with He Jian's defense of another division stationed in northern Guangdong. The purpose is very clear: this gang of ** bandits must be eliminated!

This Xu Kexiang has always been insidious and cunning, and he led three divisions and six regiments to garrison Lechang, Guangdong, and only sent a leading regiment to take the lead to explore the truth. At that time, the regiment had already marched to the vicinity of Mangshan.

The Workers' and Peasants' Red Army knew the information and made preparations as soon as it could. According to Mr. Zhu's opinion, the troops were divided into two routes, and Wang Erzhuo was sent to lead a battalion of elite troops out of the mountains to attack. The rest of the troops, led by him and Mr. Chen, penetrated deep into Pingshi, Lechang, Guangdong, and attacked the rest of the enemy.

According to Mr. Zhu's deployment, Wang Erzhuo led the elite troops of this battalion, and under the guidance of the leading spearhead detachment, they set off from Yizhang City to Mangshan. Because Li Jiansheng and others live in this area, they are very familiar with the situation in this area; As for Wang Erzhuo and others, because they had led the troops to Mangshan, they were also familiar with the terrain in this area, so when the troops rushed to Mangshan, they immediately built fortifications on the top of the mountain according to the plan.

Mangshan Cave is densely forested and the road is rugged. Li Jiansheng and several other members of the original special uprising team, who were familiar with the terrain, together with the members of the guard squad, escorted Wang Erzhuo to inspect the terrain. Wang Erzhuo learned from Li Jiansheng that there was only one road into the cave here, and as long as he held the hills on both sides of the road, he could tighten his pockets and wipe out the enemy, so he ordered two companies of troops to guard the east side of the road; He led two companies of his own troops to guard the western end. Considering that although Li Fei and Li Jiansheng's squad is strong, after all, except for Li Fei, they are all recruits, and they are all guarding the west end with him. After the fortifications were built, a messenger came from the front: The enemy ** swaggered into the hole.

Soon, sure enough, I saw that the enemy was divided into four columns and drove towards Mangshan Cave. In order to completely annihilate the enemy, on the eve of the battle, Wang Erzhuo called a meeting of the company commanders of the four companies and Li Fei, and instructed everyone not to easily expose the target, and after the enemy entered the encirclement, he immediately launched an attack with his gun. The company commanders and the captain of the special detachment, Li Fei, were all Wang Erzhuo's old subordinates, and they understood what the chief of staff meant, so they nodded together and went to make arrangements. When the enemy's ** team entered the Red Army's ambush position, Wang Erzhuo knocked out a battalion commander who was walking in the front with one shot, and suddenly, dense gunfire rang out from the Mangshan cave. The enemy was suddenly attacked, panicked, and immediately disorganized.

The leading regiment of Xu Kexiang's department was the second regiment of his third division, and the regiment commander Xu Jiaji was a distant relative of Xu Kexiang. This time, Xu Kexiang didn't plan to let him lead his troops here, just because this kid felt that chasing and killing ** red bandits was really fun, so he took the initiative to ask to come over. However, although this kid is not very moral, he still has a few fights in the war. As soon as he saw this situation, he knew that he was ambushed and was unwilling to be annihilated, so he actively organized a counterattack. At that moment, he said sharply to his deputy Xiao Tieying: "Adjutant Xiao, inform Battalion Commander Wang to lead the first battalion to fight against **, and the rest of the troops will follow me to counterattack the mountains in the west." Xiao Tieying responded and disappeared into the smoke. After a while, the enemy concentrated the main force to attack the hill held by Wang Erzhuo, and set up mortars to prepare to bombard the hill. Wang Erzhuo discovered the enemy's attempt and urgently ordered the commander of the first company to lead a reinforced platoon and a small detachment to bypass the hill and attack the enemy's artillery company.

Li Jiansheng is familiar with the road, and Li Fei, Yang Ning, Yang Zhijin, Yang Zhishen and a few others rushed to the front. Only then did they go around the hill and find the enemy's artillery battery. However, the artillery company was guarded by at least two platoons of enemies. Li Jiansheng and several other members of the special detachment who arrived first did not wait for the arrival of the large army and immediately entered the battle. Before the first machine gunner could make a move, Li Jiansheng had already picked up his gun and killed him with one shot -- after the capture of the police station in Yizhang County, several members of the squad were each given a gun. That's where it comes in. Liu Fugui saw that the enemy's machine gunner had killed Li Jiansheng, and his heart was very happy, under the cover of Yang Ning and Yang Zhijin, a few stumbles jumped to the machine gun, hung his rifle on his back, grabbed the machine gun in his hand, and tinkered a few times, the machine gun immediately screamed with joy, and a few enemies came over, and they were shot down immediately. When Liu Fugui grabbed the machine gun, Li Jiansheng picked up the gun again and dropped it, directly heading the enemies who were the heads. In addition, Li Fei and several other special detachments rushed to the ground, and the two platoons guarding the artillery position crossed. At this time, the commander of the first company rushed over with dozens of people from the reinforced platoon, and completely annihilated the two escort platoons in just a few strokes. Several artillerymen were also killed in the shootout. Li Jiansheng had already been prepared, and when he was rushing up just now, he specially explained to Wu Shanzi and a few others, paying attention to catching more artillery prisoners. By this time, his squad had taken several artillery prisoners. In a few moments, the artillery position changed hands.

At this moment, the situation in Xishantou became tight. Enemies are swarming. Wang Erzhuo mobilized the light and heavy machine guns of the two companies, concentrated his firepower, and fired at the enemy. Due to the favorable terrain occupied, several enemy charges were repulsed. However, two companies also suffered casualties. At the same time, the fighting at the eastern end was fierce. The strength of two companies of the Red Army was one battalion against the enemy, and the two sides were inseparable. As soon as Li Jiansheng saw that the artillery position had been settled, he immediately discussed with the commander of the first company and Li Fei to get these artillery pieces over. Both agreed, and it was arranged immediately. Yang Zhijin, Yang Zhishen, Wu Shanzi and a few others escorted these artillery prisoners to the west mountain, Li Jiansheng and a few others such as the company commander and Li Fei, and Liu Fugui, Guo Da Man, Yang Ning, Bai Kaishan and a few others, carried these more than ten mortars to the west mountain, and then bombarded the artillery at the opposing army. These artillerymen originally refused, but the guns of Nai He Li Jiansheng and others were all aimed at them, so they had to open fire!
