In the Nanchang Xingying Suppression General Headquarters, the huge military map is eye-catching, and the offensive posture of Chiang's army is marked with blue arrows, and the thick arrows symbolize a shocking power. At this time, Jiang Zhongzheng was wearing a straight military uniform, and his long body stood out from the crowd. On one side stood the military advisers of Germany, Japan, Britain and other countries, the military advisers of Germany and Britain were tall and stood on both sides, and the Japanese military advisers spread a pair of small short legs in the middle with their chests held high, looking nondescript. On the other side is the senior staff team of the General Command.

At present, He Yingqin, commander of the Central Route Group Army, is sitting in Wuzhou to command operations, Cheng Chen Mingshu, commander of the Right Route Group Army, is commanding operations in Jianyang, Fujian, and Zhu Shaoliang, commander of the Left Route Group Army, is commanding operations in Jiujiang. The army has been launched, the attack is imminent, and Lao Jiang's thoughts are all on Zhu and Mao. Although Ouyang Jian is a big trouble, he is not afraid compared to Zhu Mao. And Zhu Mao was the founder of the Red Army, and his ideas were the most terrifying, especially the series of articles published by Runzhi, and the old Jiang Bai read him as the biggest threat.

At this time, a senior staff officer was making a report: "According to the Air Force's reconnaissance, the main force of the Red Army was divided into two, one remained in the Minjiang area, and the other moved to southern Jiangnan, and it is difficult to judge Zhu Mao's whereabouts. The main forces of the Red Army were divided in order to distract our attention. Lao Jiang said without hesitation: "There must be no mistake in ordering Chen Mingshu and instructing the Right Route Group Army and all departments in Fujian to make every effort to clear out the Min and Jiangxi Red Army, and ordering He Yingqin and instructing the Middle Route Group Army to send troops to southern Jiangxi to find the main force of the Red Army for a decisive battle." "No sooner had the communications officer left than another senior operations staff officer hurriedly walked in.

"Report, Zhu Shaoliang, the commander-in-chief of the left road, reported that Ouyang Jian led his troops to surround Fengyun County and launched an attack at 8 o'clock that night. Ouyang Jian dispatched an artillery unit, and the artillery fire was very fierce, which could confirm that Ouyang Jian's main force was in Fengyun County. Lao Jiang looked at the German, Japanese, and British advisers, and the three of them nodded, obviously they had studied it beforehand. Ouyang Jian was bold, and his purpose in besieging Yunshui County was to relieve Zhu Mao's pressure. Ordered Wei Lihuang and Li Yannian to go north, and ordered Yang Jian, the commander of the 27th Division, to immediately lead his troops to advance to Fengyun County, and I want to fight Ouyang Jian in Fengyun County. In addition, Xu Kexiang of the 24th Division was ordered to lead his troops south.

Lao Jiang knew in his heart that it would be impossible to destroy Ouyang Jian in a battle, because he would retract the base area at any time, and his purpose was to beat Ouyang Jian back to the base area in order to improve the morale of the officers and soldiers. Li Yannian's troops were stationed in the northern part of Anyi County, and when they received Lao Jiang's telegram, they were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Originally, Li Yannian was restrained by Wei Lihuang and should act in unison, but he couldn't wait for his meritorious service. After receiving the order, Li Yannian immediately ordered the troops to go out and target Fengyun County.

The 12th Siege Brigade set off in a majestic manner, and it seemed to be majestic. Li Yannian rode a high-headed horse and entered the Chinese army with high spirits. At the age of 27, he was the youngest senior general in Chiang's army, and he entered the first phase of Huangpu at the age of 20. The third encirclement and suppression kicked off, and Li Yannian was appointed as the commander of the 12th Siege Brigade, which is a rare honor for a senior general of his age. This gentleman is at the age of Fang Gang, and when he received Lao Jiang's order, he naturally wanted to take the lead.

He is not only familiar with Ouyang Jian, but also in the same class of the first phase of Huangpu. "Lvza, I heard that you and Ouyang Jian are at the front and back table, what is this person?" Li Yannian was a little unconvinced: "Back in Huangpu, Ouyang Jian's military quality was very good, but his military strategy was mediocre. At that time, I didn't see what this person had done, maybe it was hidden. He's a few years older than me, and we don't usually communicate much. This guy has a set of stammering Soviet instructors. The past is unbearable, and I didn't think of him becoming a climate in the Communist Party, but I'm not convinced. ”

"The brigade seat is young and promising, if Ouyang Jian is repelled in this battle, it will definitely be famous, and this attack will definitely be successful!" The chief of staff slapped his beard, which made Li Yannian a little fluttery. "What's up ahead?" "Ahead is Phoenix Ridge!" "Order the troops to pass through the Phoenix Ridge quickly, and be sure to rush to Fengyun County at dusk, I want to see how powerful Ouyang Jian is!" After all, Li Yannian is young and vigorous, and he wants to become famous. Under his repeated urging, the officers and men of the 12th Siege Brigade made rapid progress, and based on the current advance speed, it was inferred that they could reach Fengyun County at dusk.

Wei Lihuang, the commander of the 10th Division, received Lao Jiang's order, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, but he always felt strange in his heart. Ouyang Jian's encirclement of Fengyun County is not advisable in any way to explain. He believed that Ouyang Jian's purpose was not this, so he judged that Ouyang Jian's purpose was to plot against Jing'an County in the southwest and open a gap for the southward operation, so he reported to the General Headquarters to state his concerns. Fortunately, the 57th Division located in Jing'an County did not dispatch, so that a stone fell to the ground in his heart. In this regard, Wei Lihuang believed that Ouyang Jianbing went out of Fengyun County, and the purpose of the battle was to find fighters.

Wei Lihuang is 34 years old, with a medium build, and a round face. In his early years, he followed Sun Yat-sen and joined the Guangdong Army, and was promoted from platoon commander to brigade commander. During this period, he participated in the Eastern Expedition and quelled the rebellion of the Guangzhou merchant group. During the Northern Expedition, he made several military exploits and was deeply favored by the old Jiang. Especially during the Central Plains War, Wei Lihuang commanded Youfang and was known as the tiger general. He has a calm personality, and he has always been meticulous in his chess arrangements when fighting. When Wei Lihuang led his troops from Anyi County, Li Yannian led his troops to Fenghuangling.

"Master, Li Yannian is worthy of being young and vigorous, this gentleman is earnest, he didn't even say hello, and led his troops to pull out without authorization, he obviously didn't take you seriously." The chief of staff was somewhat indignant. Wei Lihuang said: "Li Yannian is too immature, do you think Ouyang Jian's eyes are narrow, if he really wants to attack Yunshui County, he will definitely arrange a force in Phoenix Ridge to block the attack." If it weren't for the fact that even if he rushed to Fengyun County, Ouyang Jian would have disappeared a long time ago. "I understand, you are killing two birds with one stone." Wei Lihuang smiled slyly, but he didn't think so in his heart.

Zhang Shiying led the officers and soldiers of the Red 17th Division to Fenghuangling at midnight, and the soldiers put down their backpacks and weapons and immediately began to dig trenches. The soldiers sweated with their small shovels, first intact an oblong pit, then expanded horizontally and connected with another dug pit. The construction of trench fortifications in this way is extremely efficient. Three hours later, the trenches were dug and the sky was white. Phoenix Ridge runs east-west and the terrain is flat, so it is not the best holding position, but it is the only blocking position.

Phoenix Ridge is sparsely wooded, the bare rocks on the ridge are all over, and the terrain and landform are half a catty to eight taels for defense and offense. After the trenches were dug, the troops went to rest. "Division commander, the 49th Regiment is deployed on the left flank, the 50th Regiment is deployed on the right flank, and the 51st Regiment serves as a reserve to support the operation at any time." Zhang Shiying held a telescope to look ahead, and the chief of staff reported on the side. After a long time, Zhang Shiying put down the binoculars and said: "This blocking operation is different from the past, the general's 12th Brigade is good at attacking fortified positions, and the 10th Division is the elite of Jiang's army, and we will face a fierce battle." ”

The political commissar said: "The reconnaissance unit has been dispatched, and it is estimated that the enemy army will arrive at noon at the earliest. Zhang Shiying seemed to remember something: "Chief of Staff, after the blocking operation begins, enemy planes will definitely come to support, and how to prepare for bombing must be highly valued by all regiments." In addition, the enemy's elite artillery is very expensive, and how to defend against artillery must also be paid great attention to. "Commander, I'll go and set it up." Zhang Shiying took out his pocket watch and glanced at it, and leaned against the wall of the trench and closed his eyes before it was too early.

The officers and men of the 12th Brigade were striding forward, and suddenly stopped in front, "What's going on, why stop!" "Li Yannian grabbed the war horse and asked!" "It is estimated that the forward troops found an abnormality, so they stopped advancing, and it is possible that there are Red Army guerrillas to intercept it at Phoenix Ridge." At this time, a fast horse galloped over, "Report, Phoenix Ridge found the Red Army intercepting troops, the strength of which is unknown. Li Yannian said without thinking: "Order the forward regiment and launch a tentative attack!" Li Yannian jumped off his horse, and the combat staff began to be busy.

After a while, the radio was ticking, and at the same time, there was a sudden dense gunfire in front of him, and Li Yannian raised his binoculars. There can be no doubt that the tentative offensive was aborted, and the Pioneer Regiment reported that there were about two regiments of Red Army units intercepted at Phoenix Ridge. "Report, artillery positions are arranged." "Order the 32nd and 33rd regiments to launch an offensive on all fronts after the artillery bombardment is over, and quickly break through the Red Army's interception." The siege brigade had 8 mountain guns, a mortar battalion with 25 mortars, and strong support firepower. At the sound of an order, the shelling began, and the earth began to shake.

The communications soldier shook the phone to try and reported: "Report, the telephone line is connected." The chief of staff shook the handle of the telephone a few times and handed it to Li Yannian. Captain Lee! After a moment of cessation of shelling, I ask you to break through the Red Army line for an hour, without mistake. Anyone who is cowardly or retreats will be dealt with by military law. Li Yannian put down the phone and then asked, "Have you contacted the 10th Division?" "I got in touch, on the way half a day away from us, Division Commander Wei called to find out the strength of the enemy army, and he led his troops to come as soon as possible." "Don't wait for them, I'm going to be the first to break through the defense!" Li Yannian seems to be full of confidence. After 15 minutes of shelling, two regiments of enemy troops launched a tidal attack.

There was smoke on the blocking position, and the command post of the Red 17th Division was located at a high point of 100 meters behind the forward position, and the field of vision was very broad. When the enemy shelled the soldiers, they were not in the forward positions, but withdrew to more than 60 meters in the rear to take refuge, and in order to allow the troops to quickly enter the forward positions, there were several longitudinal trenches connected with the forward positions. In the division command post, Zhang Shiying looked at the gunpowder smoke from the explosion at the forward position, and secretly praised the new tactics of blocking operations emphasized by the corps commander. In the past, the enemy shelled soldiers who stayed in the trenches to take refuge, so the casualties were very large.

Due to the limited concentration of enemy artillery to bombard the middle lane, it is clear that the enemy is focusing on attacking the middle lane. The enemy's artillery fire extended, and Zhang Shiying ordered the troops to enter the forward position. Soon the battle began, gunfire erupted, and a heavy rain of bullets swept towards the enemy. "Damn, the elite of the Jiang army is indeed different, it is worthy of being well-trained and attacking in a very orderly manner, which is much stronger than the miscellaneous army." Zhang Shiying muttered to herself. "Division commander, do you use mortars!" "The enemy forces have not invested many troops, and the regiments are ordered not to use mortars for the time being, so as not to expose our family background early."

"Judging from the enemy's artillery, the enemy's large force has not reached the battlefield, and it is possible that Li Yannian's siege brigade is the one who is in the vanguard." Chief of Staff Analysis. "I heard that Li Yannian is only 27 years old, and the speed of his attack is extremely fast, which is a manifestation of meritorious service, yes, it must be his vanguard brigade." "Report, the enemy forces are repulsed!" An operational staff officer shouted excitedly. "The enemy is a tentative attack, and the troops are ordered to retreat." The gunfire at the front became sparse, and the soldiers in the forward positions quickly retreated, as if they had been negotiated, and the enemy artillery fire roared again.
