Chapter 168: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
"Yaga, retreat."
They had just been bombarded by enemy artillery fire, and now they were in the enemy's ambush circle, and the troops who had landed on the devil were simply crazy, desperately running towards the landing ship.
Bang bang bang
Slowly, some of the devils began to board the landing ship, and they began to shoot at the pursuing enemy from behind, preventing them from getting closer.
"Withdraw, hurry."
Seeing that the devils had begun to board the landing ship one after another, several captains decisively gave up the pursuit and immediately ordered to evacuate.
"Baga, you can't cheapen them, bombard me with naval artillery."
Seeing that the enemy took advantage of the enemy and retreated decisively, the commander of the devil's fleet scolded angrily and began to order the naval artillery to bombard the retreating enemy.
Boom, boom, boom
The ship's guns immediately opened fire, and the shells rang out decisively and flew away as the evacuated fighters flew away. There was a bang that exploded on the way out of the fighters, and several fighters were blown up directly.
"Hurry up and run, spread out quickly."
Seeing that the devils were aiming at them so quickly, several regiment commanders immediately ordered everyone to disperse and evacuate as much as possible, not to huddle together, to reduce the number of people in the unit area as much as possible, and to reduce the threat of naval artillery to the troops.
"Baga, don't let them run so easily, stop them."
I saw that the enemy was still desperately evacuating, and running very scattered, and it was not far from the nearest woods. If they can't stop them, the enemy will retreat into the woods. As soon as they entered the woods, they lost their purpose. Therefore, the commander of the devil was also in a hurry, and kept urging the naval guns to speed up and fire. However, he forgot the fact that naval guns have the maximum amount of fire per unit of time, and no matter how you give the order, it will not affect the speed of fire.
As a result, after two rounds of artillery fire, the enemy withdrew into the woods and disappeared without a trace.
"Yaga, Yaga."
Losing the target, even if the devil's naval artillery is powerful, it can only be helpless to be dumb. The devil commander can only scold angrily in the flagship, and nothing else can be done.
"Okay, hahaha, these boys are smart enough."
And Chen Jinghui, who had been watching the battle on the city wall, saw the ability of several regiment commanders to deal with crises without fear and decisively, which made him laugh out loud, and at the same time did not forget to praise them.
After this round of fighting, both sides had their own injuries, and in general, Chen Jinghui's first division still suffered relatively large losses. Except for the soldiers who died, almost all of his shore artillery was lost. And the devil only lost two warships and a few hundred soldiers, and nothing else.
The sky gradually darkened, and the devil stopped on the river and did not continue to land. And Chen Jinghui is also happy to be idle, the devils don't land, and he doesn't take the initiative to provoke them, but just does some defensive measures to prevent the devils from sneaking up.
"Jinghui, how's it going?"
After moving the masses to a safe place, Chen Hu and Chief of Staff Xu immediately rushed back to Jiujiang, and as soon as they saw Chen Jinghui, they immediately inquired about today's battle situation.
"Today was okay, both sides have losses. But there is something more important that needs to be done right away. ”
Chen Jinghui said briefly, and then immediately changed the topic.
"What's the matter?"
When the two heard the more urgent task, they immediately asked in unison.
"All three of us are here, and there are now three divisions fighting on the Nanchang side. So I need one of you to go back and take command. ”
"In this case, then I'll go!"
Hearing Chen Jinghui's words, Chief of Staff Xu immediately recommended himself and asked to go to Nanchang to coordinate the three divisions to fight in unison.
"Okay then, just go to Lao Xu. At the moment they are going well on their own, and you go to the main ones to watch out for the counterattack of the devils. ”
"Okay, I know, I'll set off for Nanchang immediately."
Chief of Staff Xu got up and left immediately after speaking, although it was night, he still asked the guards to drive to Nanchang immediately.
"Uncle, take ......"
"Report, the first division reports that the devils may sneak in at night, and ask the army commander for instructions."
After Chief of Staff Xu left, Chen Jinghui originally wanted to discuss other matters with Chen Hu. But just as he was speaking, the telegraph operator ran in and said that there was a situation on the devil's side.
Chen Jinghui took a detailed look at the telegram, then closed his eyes and thought about it, and handed the telegram to Chen Hu.
"Uncle, I suddenly have a plan, you ...... like this"
Just when Chen Hu was reading the telegram, Chen Jinghui suddenly thought of a plan that might wipe out all the devils in one fell swoop, so as to relieve the crisis along the Jiujiang River. He armrested his hand to Chen Hu's ear and quietly told Chen Hu about the plan.
"Good plan, but it's more dangerous on your side, so be careful yourself."
After telling Chen Jinghui a few words, Chen Hu immediately turned around and left Jiujiang, as for where he went and what he was doing. Except for Chen Jinghui, no one else knows.
After Chen Jinghui finished negotiating with Chen Hu, he quickly rushed to the headquarters of the first division. He wants to go to the front line in person, first, to inspire the soldiers; The second is to personally observe the movements of the devils, so as to formulate detailed countermeasures for themselves.
"Erzhu, tell me the details immediately."
As soon as Chen Jinghui arrived at the headquarters of the first division, he directly asked about the specific situation here.
"The commander is like this, half an hour ago, our patrol post on the riverside spotted a landing boat of devils. I judged that this might be the devils quietly sending people to reconnoiter our military situation, and it is likely that they wanted to secretly land at night. ”
"Well, there is some truth in your analysis, you pointed out to me the location of the Great Immortal Devil Landing Ship."
"Commander, here, this piece of land is an open field, which is very suitable for landing operations with large troops."
Zhang Erzhu pointed to the location of a sandy beach, where there was no place to use as shelter except for sparse shrubs.
"Well, it does, hehe...... Since the devil wants to come up, let's go and greet it! ”
Chen Jinghui smiled strangely, and then quietly told Zhang Erzhu about his plan, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and began to walk outside the headquarters.
"Tap, don't make too much noise."
At eleven o'clock in the night, a large number of devil landing ships began to slowly approach the river. The ghost officers who were in charge of directing the landing whispered to the rowing soldiers and told them to tap.
Slowly, the landing boats of the devils began to dock one after another, and the devils began to bend over and slowly move towards the beach.
"Here, here."
The devil scouts, who had already come up to reconnoitre, saw that the large forces had come ashore one after another, and they waved to the vanguard of the landing and whispered to them their location.
"Have you scouted it all?"
"Report to Dazuo, all the reconnaissance has been clear, this is the enemy's troop deployment drawing, you see."
The devil scout handed over the deployment map of the first division they had already drawn to that big saga.
"Yo Xi, you did a good job. Ordered troops to assemble here and prepare for a surprise attack. ”
When he saw the defense map, he immediately chose a place where the defense was the weakest, and prepared to launch a surprise attack there to catch the enemy by surprise.
Da-da-da, bang-bang
They quietly lurked in the designated position, and immediately launched an attack on the defensive positions of the 1st Division, hoping to crush the enemy with a single blow.
"The devil is coming, fight"
Da-da-da, da-da-da
When the soldiers in charge of defense heard the gunshots, they immediately began to shoot at the place where there was fire, blocking the attack of the devils.
Bang bang
The devil was attacked suddenly, so the fighters of the first division were caught off guard. In addition, they had been prepared for a long time, and the firepower of the attack was very fierce. Tighten for two rounds, and the warrior in charge of defense will almost be overwhelmed.
"Hurry up and ask the regiment commander for help, quick."
"Company commander, division commander ordered us to retreat immediately."
Seeing that he was about to be unable to stop the devil, the company commander in charge of defense immediately made people want to ask for help from their superiors. But instead of waiting for the order to come with reinforcements, he waited for the order to retreat.
Since the division commander ordered the retreat, he did not hesitate any longer, and directly led the soldiers to retreat quickly.
"Yo Xi, kill and give."
Seeing that the enemy had only been fighting for more than ten minutes and began to retreat, the devil happily immediately stood up, pulled out his command knife, and began to organize a charge.
Beat......
Just as the devils were chasing for about two or three hundred meters, a voice suddenly came from the bushes next to them. Immediately after that, the bushes on both sides remembered the dense gunshots, and the devil in the middle was killed in an instant.
"Baga, kill it."
Only then did the devil Dazuo realize that he had fallen for the trick, and now he was surrounded by enemies. But instead of flinching, he organized his soldiers to attack the enemy on both sides.
"Hit, beat me hard, kill these little devils."
The regiment commander in charge of the ambush saw that the devil did not retreat but advanced, and immediately felt that he was being despised by the devil. Angry, he began to loudly command the soldiers to fight, and at the same time burst into foul language.
Dada, ah......
The attacking devils were strongly blocked by the dense bullets, and the devils who rushed to the front reached the sieve.
"Baga, throw a grenade, rush."
Seeing that such a charge was simply a live target, the devil Dazuo immediately changed his tactics and used the fire from the grenade explosion as a cover to let the charging soldiers get as close to the enemy as possible.
Da-da-da, da-da-da
"Don't stop, don't pay attention to the devil's grenades."
The commander of the first division saw that the devil had changed his tactics, but he didn't eat just one set. Still let the fighters ignore the devil's grenade and continue to shoot at the location of the grenade explosion.
The devil thought that the enemy would be on fire for a short time because he couldn't see each other, but he didn't expect that the enemy would not be fooled, and it was still a powerful firepower, and the soldiers who attacked them died again.
