The Gui Army, whether it was the Republic of China period or the Anti-Japanese War period, was a strong combat force in China. And Li and Bai, who are now in control of the Gui army, are also regarded as the leading figures of the 'new Gui line', and even Chairman Jiang is a little jealous.

The two main divisions dispatched to participate in the encirclement and suppression this time are also regarded as the main forces in the combat sequence of the Gui Army. Compared with the combat effectiveness of the Sichuan army in this period, it is undoubtedly still much stronger.

It's just that for He Zhengdao, the stronger the Gui army at this moment, the greater the threat to the Red Army. As long as these two Gui divisions are defeated, I believe that in the future, Li and Bai will also have to consider the consequences of sending troops again.

In addition, this time the Red Army went all the way to the battle, and many officers and soldiers died at the hands of the Gui army. This battle, for many of the old Red Army of the independent column, also had a bit of a sense of revenge.

looked at the Gui army, which drove into the ambush circle one after another, but still maintained a strict formation. Even He Zhengdao must say that Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi still spent a lot of effort in the training of governing the army. Its equipment is not much worse than that of the Central Army.

Although this time, He Zhengdao successfully lured out the two Gui army divisions. But in the matter of dealing with these two Gui military divisions, He Zhengdao also made a lot of effort. also intentionally transferred the strongest 1st and 2nd divisions of the column to fight.

Facing the Gui army who entered the ambush circle, the Red officers and soldiers who were ambushed in the ambush circle also quietly waited for the moment of the battle to come. And Gui Jun, who was walking in the ambush circle, also seemed very vigilant and paid attention to the surrounding situation.

Just after the baggage troops of the Gui army successfully entered the ambush circle. He Zhengdao, who was standing in the trench, said to the guards beside him: "Send a signal flare!" Start attacking! ”

Accompanied by three piercing and dazzling flares, it was shot into the sky. The commander of the Gui army, who was marching, immediately realized the arrival of the crisis. The commanders at the grass-roots level immediately ordered the troops to defend on the spot.

This kind of quick entry into the battle situation made He Zhengdao also feel a little dignified. Soon he ordered: "Order the first division and the second division, this battle does not have to take into account the consumption of ammunition, and there is enough time, give me concentrated firepower to eat them little by little." ”

Worried that the two divisions were eager to win, they might be strongly counterattacked by the Gui army during the strong attack. He Zhengdao also felt that in this battle, he wanted to use the equipment to suppress the Gui army that came from afar.

Although the two main divisions of the Gui army reacted quickly in the face of a sudden ambush. But the artillery units of the column, which had been waiting for a long time, also fired the first shell fired at the Gui army.

Looking at the shells constantly flying on both sides of the mountain forest, the division commander of the Gui Army, who was protected by the guard troops, also felt incredulous and said: "How is this possible? This is at least a hundred mortars shelling at the same time, when did the Red Army have so many artillery? ”

It's hard to believe, but look at the shells that keep falling in the ranks. The two division commanders of the Gui Army also ordered the troops to seize the favorable terrain and prepare to launch a defensive counterattack on the spot. It seemed to them that the number of Red Army troops who ambushed them was also not large.

At the same time, the telegrams for help from the two Gui military divisions were also sent to Xue Yue. Knowing that the two Gui army divisions were ambushed, Xue Yue also looked uplifted and said, "It's broken!" We're afraid we've been fooled again! ”

If before, he didn't quite understand what the intention of the independent division was to march to Tianquan. Then at this moment, when he received a telegram from Gui Junshi asking for help, he guessed that what the independent division was fighting was the idea of these two Gui Junshi.

As long as these two Gui divisions were defeated, the Red Army would be flat behind it. With his understanding of Long Yun, it was almost impossible to order him to send troops across the river. Even, even if you cross the river, you don't dare to chase too closely.

In Xue Yue's imagination, these two main divisions of the Gui Army were used as killer weapons. This time, the independent division seemed to be aware of the threat of these two Gui divisions and consciously ambushed them.

Looking at the map, Xue Yue couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I'm afraid it's too late!" At present, the closest to Gui's army is Liu Wenhui's troops. If you want this old fox to send troops for help, I'm afraid it's difficult! ”

The staff officer who heard Xue Yue's words said in a timely manner: "Commander-in-chief, you can forward this telegram to Chief Li." With their friendship with the Sichuan army, I believe Liu Wenhui must also give a little sincerity, right? ”

As the telegram was forwarded to Li Zongren, he learned that his two Gui army divisions had been ambushed. Li Zongren, who looked at the map, was also very angry and said, "How did this Xue Yue command?" Our two divisions have become completely alone! ”

On the contrary, Bai Chongxi, who was standing aside, said directly: "Delin, it is useless to blame at this time. If Xue Yue's command is inappropriate, then the commander of this independent division is also a very cunning guy.

And most importantly, I'm afraid that we all underestimate the size of the independent division. According to a telegram from the 132 Division, the Red Army that ambushed them, the size of at least two divisions. This means that the independent division should have been expanded in Kangding.

In addition to this, the Red Army that ambushed them was equipped with very strong firepower. Our two divisions want to wait for reinforcements to arrive, but we are afraid that it is simply impossible. The only way to do this is to order them to save the main force for a breakthrough. ”

In Bai Chongxi's opinion, it is better to ask Liu Wenhui to send troops to support, so let him send troops to respond. If these two divisions hold on to the ground at this moment, the final result will be that the whole army will be annihilated in the ambush circle of the Red Army, and breaking through is the wisest choice.

As the 'little Zhuge of the Gui army', Bai Chongxi's command ability is undoubtedly recognized by the Gui army. Even if Li Zongren has to rely on this partner's ability many times.

'Good! Wait for a report to Liu Wenhui and ask him to send the main force to respond. Also, let our troops carry out the breakout! ’

And He Zhengdao, who was staring at the battlefield situation at the moment, saw that the Gui army was indeed fighting very tenaciously. Even the two main divisions of the column, which had the advantage of terrain, began to increase casualties in this kind of confrontation.

Thinking of this, He Zhengdao immediately said: "Order one division and one regiment to cut off the communication between the enemy's baggage troops and the main force." The 1st Division, the 2nd Regiment and the 3rd Regiment focused on attacking the enemy's joint and eating the Gui Army's baggage troops first. ”

In He Zhengdao's view, as long as the communication between the Gui army and the baggage troops was blocked. The weapons and ammunition they carry, I'm afraid, won't last long. Without a supply of weapons and ammunition, how long can they hold out?

After receiving the order from He Zhengdao, Zhang Cheng also looked solemn about Gui Jun's tenacity. Even before, he had fought with Gui Jun. But in this case, Gui Jun's tenacity was still beyond his expectations.

From the order sent by He Zhengdao, Zhang Cheng also saw an opportunity to break the fighting spirit of the Gui army. Immediately, he said: "Order the artillery battalion to focus on attacking the enemy's junction and separating the baggage troops from their main forces."

Tell the commander of the first regiment that no matter what the cost, let the first regiment be separated from the baggage troops of the Gui army in the shortest possible time. The other two regiments followed the three regiments and cooperated with the first regiment to carry out the attack and block the counterattack of the Gui army. ”

With the issuance of this order, Zhao Erzai, the commander of the first division and the first regiment who was responsible for the task of sealing the mouth, immediately said: "Order the artillery company to carry out a key attack on the enemy's joint, the first battalion to prepare for an assault, and the second battalion and the third battalion to be responsible for fire cover. ”

Under a series of orders, the heavy troops of the Gui army, which were blocked in a small valley, also knew that they needed to join the main force as soon as possible. And the main forces at the front also know the importance of the baggage troops.

Just as they were about to form a union, a sudden charge from a regiment caught the Gui army, who were supporting the baggage troops, off guard. Under the heavy artillery attack, a main regiment of the Gui Army was also beaten unspeakably.

Seeing the already chaotic Gui army, the commander of the first battalion immediately said: "Comrades, rush! ”

With the machine-gun platoon on the way, the 1st Battalion became the first unit in the division to charge. Looking at the battalion that rushed down from the ambush position, the commander of the Gui army also knew what the Red Army wanted to do.

The commander of the 132nd Division, who was in charge of the rear of the palace, immediately said: "Let the second regiment hurry over, and be sure to pick up the baggage troops." ”

It's just that at this time, the battalion that seized the opportunity, after paying a lot of price, has isolated the main force of the Gui army from the baggage troops. The main force of the 1st Division, which was reinforced one after another, also began to expand the area of isolation.

Knowing that the 1st Division had successfully isolated the Gui Army from the baggage troops, He Zhengdao also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Tell the 1st Division that you must take down the enemy's baggage troops as quickly as possible." The rest of the troops, blocking the enemy's reinforcements. ”

In this case, the main forces of the Gui army, which were suppressed in the valley, looked at the increasing blocking forces of the Red Army. I also knew that they wanted to support the baggage troops, which was almost impossible.

At this time, Bai Chongxi's breakthrough telegram was also sent. Seeing this telegram, the two division commanders of the Gui Army, who were isolated, immediately decided to give up the baggage troops and go all out to break through.

Watching the attacking Gui army begin to retreat, the Gui army attacking the blocking position of the 2nd Division and 3rd Regiment began to increase. He Zhengdao also realized that Gui Jun was only afraid that he was going to break through. In this case, it may be more advantageous to let go a little.

Thinking of this, He Zhengdao immediately said: "Send a telegram to the second division and the third regiment, and let them properly make a hole and let the Gui army break through." As long as they take down the enemy's baggage troops, they won't be able to run far! ”

Without baggage, where can these Gui troops run away when they are isolated and helpless?
