(PS: Chapter 7 monthly pass plus change, 350 votes plus change!) This is also today's fifth update! I don't know if you still have tickets in your hands, so hurry up and smash them out! I'm not afraid of adding more, I'm afraid of not having a monthly pass! Mosquitoes really don't want to taste it again, the taste of being blown up! Please! )

When the first wave of mortar shells flew to the defenders' positions on the other side of the river, the effect of hundreds of shells made the officers and men of the only division waiting for the attack feel a sense of shock. It has to be said that artillery deserves to be called the god of war.

Even the defenders of Lu Dachang's department, who were staying in the trenches, looked at the hail-like shells, and they also looked very panicked. All they could do was bury their heads deep in their chests, and the cats in the trenches, praying that the shells would not fall on their heads.

In contrast, the defenders, who were hiding in machine-gun bunkers, felt that they were lucky. The roof built overhead made them not worry about mortars being able to blow through the top floors of their bunkers.

Just as they were rejoicing, they found that a few shells had hit the front of their pillbox, and the explosion sound was obviously wrong. What surprised them even more was that the smoke produced by the explosion of these shells was very different.

As the smoke spread, it poured into their bunkers with the wind. The Heavy inside immediately felt discomfort in his throat and eyes, coughed not only to mention, but also unable to open his eyes at all.

'No! The Red Army used poison * gas bombs, we can't stand it anymore! I don't want to die, I'm going out! ’

Accompanied by someone shouting poison * gas bombs, this kind of seemingly professional shell word. The rest were puzzled by what kind of shell this defender was, and immediately felt like they had seen a ghost. Swarmed out, a fortress that seemed safe to them.

And this time. Watching the defenders in the bunker escape, He Zhengdao said with a smile: "Hit the signal flare." Prepare to attack! ”

Although I don't understand why the defenders in the bunker escaped. But for the attacking Red Army soldiers, they seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. The reason is simple, the machine guns in the pillboxes pose the greatest threat to them crossing the river.

Even if the river is not wide, it will take a little time to cross. And the opponent's machine-gun bunker just formed a fire blockade on the river. In such a situation, if you want to cross the river without solving the machine gun, the losses must be not small.

Lu Dachang, who was also watching the battle in the rear. Looking at the deafening explosion of the riverside position, I also felt secretly frightened. It seems that he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the main force of the Red Army in front of him.

With such an artillery strike, even the Central Army he has seen will not be able to equip so many mortars. At this time, Lu Dachang was surprised to find that the defenders in the bunker had escaped.

'Give me the river defense battalion, what are you doing!' How did those people in the bunker escape? Damn it! ’

But it was at this time. Around the area where the machine-gun bunkers were located, the defenders in the trenches also fled. didn't care about it at all, and fled back in a swarm. This made Lu Dachang feel that he had seen a ghost in broad daylight!

As a matter of fact. At this moment, the rout of the defensive position by the river is more due to the three words 'poison gas bomb'. Although some officers and soldiers did not believe it, they could see the officers and soldiers who escaped from the bunker. Coughing and tears.

This kind of thing that has never been touched before makes these defenders who really don't want to die. I can't wait for my parents to give them two more legs. If you really want to be touched by poison gas bombs, even if you live, it is estimated that life is better than death!

The previous overwhelming shelling. It has made them fearful. Now a 'poison gas bomb' suddenly appears, and the quality of these local armies does not form a rout, then it is strange!

As soon as the artillery fire stopped, the most solid defensive positions were as if they were undefended. The defenders, who were lucky enough to escape the shelling, were a little dumbfounded when they saw the Red Army that had already rushed to the area where the previous machine-gun bunker was.

What's going on?

The defenders, who were still in a state of confusion, finally chose to surrender very sensibly in the face of waves of Red Army that successfully crossed the river. And Lu Dachang, who was staying in the rear at the moment, was undoubtedly a little furious.

The river defense position, on which high hopes were pinned, ended after just one round of shelling. This kind of battle, Lu Dachang has never encountered such a thing since he asked about the war after the war. Next, how to keep Lazikou?

'Come, bring me those who have escaped.' I'm going to ask them what kind of this is. Lao Tzu worked hard to build the bunker, why didn't he let go of a single shot, and these guys would be handed over to the Red Army. ’

As a company commander was escorted to him, the company commander was also very frightened and said: "Master, it's not that the brothers don't want to keep it, it's that they can't hold it at all!" The Red Army has a poisonous* air bomb, and the brothers are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of life rather than death! ”

'Poison * gas bomb? What kind of are you talking about, just these Red Army, like Hanako, can also have poison * gas bombs? ’

'Master, it's true! If you don't believe you, you can call any of the brothers who are guarding the castle. If there is a half-lie in the humble position, let the teacher fall. This Red Army is really different from what we knew before! ’

In the eyes of this company commander, it is not that he does not want to defend it, but he does not dare to defend it at all. Although he had never experienced the taste of the poison * gas bomb before. But I saw how embarrassed the soldiers who rushed out of the dark bunker were.

Tears and snot were handed out, and he fell to the ground desperately coughing and exhaling, which seemed to be very similar to the people who had heard people who had been injured by poison * gas bombs before. In such a situation, who would dare to stay there and not retreat?

As for what Lu Dachang said, the Red Army was a force called Hanako. If it were someone else, the company commander wanted to spit on him. Even if their division is equipped with several mortars, it is the heart and soul of this division commander.

And what about the Red Army that attacked them this time? Good guys, there are hundreds of doors as soon as you make a shot. Comparing the two, they became called Hanako. It's just that he doesn't dare to say this in his heart at this moment.

At the cost of only a few minor injuries, the main force of the 1st Division successfully crossed the river. Such a situation is also incredible to Zhang Cheng. Looking at He Zhengdao standing beside him, he said curiously: "Commander, what kind of shell is that?" ”

'The original double-pepper cannonballs of our independent column are most effective against the enemy's bunkers. This Lu Dachang really thought that with these bunkers he built, he wanted to stop us from advancing, which was simply a fool's dream. ’

'Double pepper cannonballs? I've never heard of it! This is also what we seized? ’

These words made Zhu Definition, the commander of the artillery regiment standing on the side, say with a smile: "Lao Zhang, didn't you listen to the commander?" This is what our independent column discovered, to be exact, invented by the commander. Double pepper cannonballs, in fact, are the meaning of pepper and pepper. ”

When Zhu Definition explained in detail, Zhang Cheng immediately suddenly realized: "I see! I said, Commander, when the war was going on, why did you say that you only owe the east wind? It turns out that the commander is really waiting for the wind to change! ”

'Yes! How's that, it's amazing! In fact, you only have to look at the weather above us to know that the weather is not very good today. In this case, there is a high possibility of a change in wind direction.

Take advantage of the limelight now and step up your control! To the east, inform our infiltration squad to launch a full-scale attack. Remember, don't push Lu Dachang too hard, leave a way out for him to escape, and wait for us to pursue Minxian directly. ’

'Yes, Commander! ’

With a sharp weapon against the enemy's pillboxes, it was time for the 1st Division to attack again. It has already been learned that the Red Army should have modified a bomb that would be in a closed environment, which would not be able to stay at all, and was not a poisonous bomb.

But even so, feeling that the wind direction was very unfavorable to him, Lu Dachang also sighed and said: "God, even you don't help me!" ”

When Lu Dachang sighed, the defenders on the riverbank who had fled before spread the story of the Red Army's poisonous air bombs to a very terrifying story. This undoubtedly caused a huge psychological panic for the other defenders who were waiting for them.

As the 1st Division launched another attack, looking at the red smoke rising from the position, the defenders were afraid of it, lest they could avoid it. As for the defenders in the bunker, they felt the unbearable coughing and choking, and they had to run out to breathe.

In this case, the fortifications that Lu Dachang also relied on were in vain. At the same time, the fierce gunfire that suddenly sounded at the rear of the position made Lu Dachang feel even more shocked and said: "It's not good, our warehouse has been attacked." ”

At the same time as learning of this situation, the defenders, who also heard the sound of gunfire behind them, were angry that they were caught by the Red Army on both sides. Immediately, the regiment commander said: "Master's seat, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." Before the Red Army is encircled, quickly withdraw! ”

Looking at the sharp Red Army attacking in front of him, and listening to the gunshots behind him, Lu Dachang could only grit his teeth and say: "Withdraw!" ”

With Lazikou, he could not resist the Red Army. Next, he wanted to prevent the Red Army from entering and occupying Minxian County, which was a complete joke. With Lu Dachang's rout, the defenders who had no time to escape simply disarmed and surrendered.

After the battle, He Zhengdao ordered a regiment to continue the pursuit until it captured Minxian. As for Lu Dachang, if he can escape, then he is lucky. If he is unfortunate enough to be captured, then he is unlucky.

Standing at the place where the battle monument was built in later generations, looking at the vast mountains in the distance, He Zhengdao suddenly felt that the guerrilla zone he had been planning to establish seemed to have appeared.

It is better to hand over such a battleground to the central army and the local army than to put it in the hands of the Red Army. As long as it was here, a guerrilla zone was created, an important communication artery, which was in the hands of the Red Army.

If the Red Second and Red Fourth Front armies come over in the future, they can also rest here and continue to go north. Most importantly, they don't have to worry about repeating the arduous Battle of Lazikou again.

Thinking of this, He Zhengdao found Zhang Cheng, and after some inquiries and a long talk. In the end, it was decided to keep the main force of the column of one battalion and establish the Gannan guerrilla brigade here.

With the danger of the terrain here, there are still good remaining fortifications. He Zhengdao believed that in the future, the local army in Gansu, as well as the central army that might come over, would pay a heavy price if they wanted to capture this place.

In contrast, the guerrilla brigades that have established their bases here have a relatively safe base area. Relying on the two counties of Zhuoni and Diebu, which are not far from here, there is no need to worry about food.

As for weapons and ammunition, He Zhengdao directly reserved a main regiment for them. Anyway, in this battle, they captured a lot of money. Even if they left a regiment of equipment, they actually made a lot of money by attacking Lazikou this time! (To be continued.) )
