Chapter Forty-Seven: The front is definitely the main force of the Red Bandits
Soon, a Huanglong Pass more than 30 kilometers south of Yizhang County attracted Li Jiansheng's attention. This site was first discovered by Li Jiansheng, and later after comparison and analysis by everyone, it was finally confirmed that this was the main ambush field. You must know that this pit-like place, just on the way from Yizhang to Mangshan, is surrounded by high ground and dense forests on both sides, and low in the middle and full of yellow earth, which is a place where the enemy must pass through, and it is definitely a natural ambush field.
After confirming this place, Li Jiansheng's heart moved and he had an idea. After returning that day, he summoned cadres at the regiment level and battalion level for a meeting and explained his intentions. Several staff officers had already drawn up a map with the help of Li Jiansheng, and quickly made a terrain model of Huanglongao out of mud and grass according to Li Jiansheng's wishes. In the end, everyone unanimously decided to him hard in this main ambush field. Seeing that everyone was settled, Li Jiansheng issued a combat order:
1. The engineer company immediately laid mines in the area. Among them, there are many rasore at the exit and entrance, and then pull the mine after the large army enters the ambush circle; On both sides of the mountain, there are automatic detonating mines, and when the enemy arrives or attacks the mountains on both sides, they will automatically detonate and kill the enemy.
2. On the high ground on both sides, prepare more grenades and Molotov cocktails so that the enemy can kill and injure a large number of enemies after entering the ambush circle. At the exit, more rocks were prepared to prevent the enemy from breaking out of the encirclement. At the entrance, prepare more grenades to prevent the enemy from attacking back. Two light machine guns at the entrance and one at the exit to help stop the enemy. The sniper platoon sent one squad each at the entrance and exit, and the rest were scattered over the hills on either side, sniping valuable targets.
3. The deployment of troops is as follows: The main force of the first battalion guards the entrance, and after the enemy follows the special battalion to completely enter the encirclement, the entrance is immediately blocked, and the door is closed and the dogs are beaten. The first and third companies of the second battalion guarded the hill on the left, and the second company of the second battalion and the third company of the first battalion guarded the hill on the right; The special service battalion first pretended to take the initiative to meet the enemy, but in the end it was defeated, and retreated while fighting, leading the enemy into the encirclement. After an offensive in the rear, a counteroffensive was immediately launched. The grenadier company is a mobile force that is responsible for throwing grenades at the enemy's concentration points, heavy firepower, and the strongest offensive areas, so as to discourage the enemy's will to resist. The guard communications company, the logistics baggage company, and the engineer company are the general reserves, and they must also prepare for the final battle.
4. Once the battle is successful, the 3rd Battalion is responsible for taking prisoners, and the 1st Battalion and the Special Service Battalion are immediately responsible for breaking off. If there is less pursuit, eat one handful; If there is a lot of pursuit of the enemy, it is responsible for blocking the enemy, ensuring that the three battalions take all the prisoners and war captured materials, and then retreat alternately; If there is no enemy tail attack, it is only responsible for guarding.
5. The reconnaissance company directly under the regiment is responsible for reconnaissance from beginning to end. In the event of a sudden emergency, the reconnaissance company and the guard communication company were connected to the fire first, so as to buy time for the large troops. If there is no situation, it is responsible for leading the way to ensure that the road to Mangshan is unblocked.
6. All military and political commanders shall be sent down to the front line. The battle was successful, and all the prisoners were taken care of by the political chiefs, including pacification and reform; All military commanders are responsible for organizing troops to attack, escort, and guard the enemy.
Seeing that everyone nodded in understanding, Li Jiansheng waved his hand, and all the troops immediately went into action. Soon, a large ambush field was formed. Li Jiansheng personally led the team to guard the entrance; Yang Zhishen stayed at the exit. Cai Zhong and He Changming clearly guarded the hills on both sides. Yun Tian personally led the team to lure the enemy.
The information came in quickly. The 27th regiment suffered a loss last time, and this time it was much more careful, playing slowly and walking slowly; But the 33rd Regiment, under the leadership of the regiment commander Luo Shiying, pounced on it.
This Luo Shiying is a native of Xiangyin and also studied at the Whampoa Military Academy. This time, I was very happy to get an order to fight the red bandits in Shonan. You know, he has been thinking about moving his position up a little more, this favor is in place, as long as there is a little bit of military exploits, the person above will be able to talk well, and his position will go straight up. What's more, in the eyes of a graduate of a regular military academy, these peasant red bandits were too easy to defeat. Well, how to say it, he seems to see his military uniform, and he is going to add stars to his shoulders again!
With this mind, he quickly urged the troops forward. learned from the deputy that the 27th Regiment was walking relatively slowly, and he secretly sneered in his heart, only thinking that these people were afraid of being beaten, in the words of his hometown in Xiangyin, they were "eggless" and extremely incompetent! Thinking about it again, no matter how powerful this red bandit is, according to his own information, there are only a few hundred people, and he hasn't got many weapons - he doesn't know, this kind of information is information from a long time ago, and it will never be like this now-such a team, if you don't fight it, it will disperse? Well, some time ago, I fought Chenzhou by myself, didn't those red bandits still have two regiments? I heard that it is still the main regiment, the 28th Regiment and the 29th Regiment, and they have not been rushed by their own troops, one is scattered, and the other can be beaten up the mountains of Jiangxi? Hmph, this time there are hundreds of people, and they want to do it with us? …… Ha ha...... Woo, don't laugh, don't laugh! If you laugh again, your teeth will laugh out!
Luo Shiying laughed wildly in her heart, and let everyone move forward with a cold face. He didn't stop in Yizhang, and attacked directly to the south. A short time after leaving the city, a messenger reported that a battalion had engaged the enemy. Looking at the enemy's firepower, it is estimated that it is the enemy's main force. When Luo Shiying heard this, he said in his heart: No wonder there are gunshots ahead! Now that I heard that the enemy might be the main force, I had a thought in my heart and hurried to the front line. Aha, with the accuracy of the red bandit's marksmanship and the density of the gunshots, it seems that the red bandit in front is really the main force. I was very happy, and secretly said that this time I was promoted, there was absolutely hope. At that moment, people hurriedly notified the follow-up 27th Regiment to come over, and they immediately made arrangements: the first battalion attacked from the front, the second battalion detoured from the left, and the third battalion detoured from the right, striving to annihilate all the red bandits! When several battalion commanders heard this, they all felt justified and led their teams out. However, after only fighting for a while, the red bandit seemed to see that Luo Shiying wanted to surround him, and he probably estimated that he was invincible, so he immediately organized a retreat. However, the retreat was relatively organized.
Luo Shiying saw that the enemy was retreating, and it seemed that his plan had failed. Okay, the kid headed by the red bandit has some vision, but unfortunately he went the wrong way, if he didn't say he wouldn't come, he would invite this kid to have a drink, and go to his own army to get a company commander to do it, but this time, there is no chance, and he will be killed-aha, whatever, rush, catch the red bandit!
Thinking of this, Luo Shiying led the team to rush forward. Several battalions followed. Those red bandits were obviously a little unable to resist, and they retreated while fighting. Luo Shiying took a look, hey, you kid has a kind, and you still know how to withdraw in an organized way? I won't let you withdraw as you wish! I'm going to break you - think about it, give the order to attack! Be sure to catch up.
Just like this, there were losses on both sides, and I walked more than 20 kilometers forward! Luo Shiying was a little annoyed, his own troops had been engaged for so long and didn't eat these peasant troops? I can't see that these peasants can really run! However, it seems that the red bandits have strict orders here, and even the wounded soldiers and the dead have been taken away. Well, in that case, the enemy's speed will be slower and slower - good chance, you red bandits are really stupid, if you do this, it seems to win the hearts of the people, but the living will die more! -- On another look, the red bandits were no longer organized and began to disperse...... Aha, opportunity, opportunity......
Seeing in his eyes and thinking of the future, Luo Shiying became more and more happy, and he didn't care that the three battalions with heavy baggage followed up, and most of them were still far behind; The 1st and 2nd Battalions also had some poor physical fitness that did not follow, and they were far away from this side, so they insisted on taking most of the 1st and 2nd Battalions, as well as a small part of the 3rd Battalion, to chase straight forward. He has already been ruthless, he must bite the red bandits tightly, and he must not give them a chance. Seeing that the speed of the red bandit is getting slower and slower, it seems that it really can't be done! I am happy in my heart: Okay, the opportunity to make meritorious service has come! Lead the team to chase! At that moment, he shouted loudly and rushed forward!
