Chapter 089: Battle of Qingyang Five

"Pass my order and tell the artillery that the artillery coverage will continue to increase, and don't let the Red Bandit Army have any chance to raise its head."

After giving the order to the 1st Regiment, Li Tiejun then gave an order to the artillery, asking for increased artillery support, and he did not believe that the Red Bandits' position was iron-clad.

After the signal soldiers turned out, Li Tiejun sat back in his chair and couldn't help but sigh, what is the matter, the First Brigade will be blocked in front of the Red Army, it is a big joke.

The two parties have been fighting for so many years, and there is almost no need to explain what the situation of the Red Army is, guerrilla warfare is their strong point, and it doesn't matter if the Central Army is not comparable, positional warfare is the Central Army's forte, and since the fifth encirclement and suppression in western Jiangxi, the Red Army has been unable to find the north, and now it can lose to the Red Army in positional warfare.

When Li Tiejun sighed, Li Zhengxian, the deputy commander of the First Brigade next to him, comforted: "Don't worry about the brigade, isn't it just that an attack is blocked, the situation on the battlefield is changing, and everything will happen. The Red Army changed into Soviet weapons, and the brothers did not adapt to it for a while, and after this while, the brothers were able to turn defeat into victory after getting used to it. ”

After listening to Li Zhengxian's comfort, Li Tiejun felt much better, but he was still a little unhappy, and he couldn't calm down after drinking a few sips of tea, so he took a horsewhip to the headquarters to relax.

In the dark night, listening to the sound of guns not far away, his heart became more and more anxious for some reason, he was familiar with all kinds of military equipment, but he could clearly distinguish the different gunshots of the two troops, although his side was much more fierce than usual, the Red Army side was even more fierce, and it gradually suppressed the first brigade.

After walking back and forth a few times, the sound of guns and cannons was still more on the side of the Red Army, which made him feel shocked, what kind of firepower did the Red Army reload, and actually suppressed his first brigade in the world, or he encountered the main force of the Red Army.

The main force against the main force, this was originally the decisive battle method that Li Tiejun wanted to see the most, as in the past, following the Red Army in circles, no matter how strong the troops were, they would be dragged down, but the Red Army seemed to never run out of energy, and when you were exhausted, they would turn around and beat you hard.

But in this situation, Li Tiejun didn't want to fight the Red Army head-on, and listening to the dense gunfire in the dark night always made people's hearts numb.

When the night passed, and the first glimmer of dawn reappeared, the gunfire on the battlefield was even more violent, but Li Tiejun was taken aback, in the continuous explosions just now, the number of cannons was frighteningly high, at least it had to be an artillery division.

"Bump...... Touch...... Touching ......"

In the continuous sound of artillery, Li Zhengxian, who was staying at the command headquarters, was also taken aback, and hurriedly rushed out of the headquarters and shouted to Li Tiejun who was standing outside the command center: "Brigade seat, where did this artillery come from?" Listen to the sound...... Listen to the sound ......"

Li Zhengxian was too shocked in his heart, and finally couldn't even speak clearly, Li Tiejun also couldn't believe it, he knew that the sound of the shelling came from the rear of the Red Army's position, but where did the Red Army get so many artillery, listening to the sound is almost an artillery division, can the Red Army afford such a luxurious establishment.

Not only is the establishment large, but the caliber of the artillery is also very large, at least more than 105 caliber, which is much more powerful than the 75 mountain guns used by their first brigade.

When the two were shocked, a communicator hurriedly ran over to report and said: "Report to the brigade seat, a large number of artillery pieces suddenly appeared on the position of the Red Bandit Army, and the first regiment was very badly damaged. ”

The first correspondent had just finished his report, and the second correspondent hurried to report in a breathless manner: "Report to the brigade, the Red Bandit Army...... The Red Bandit Army launched an attack, but the first regiment could not stop them and had already retreated. ”

"What?"

Hearing this news, Li Tiejun and Li Zhengxian couldn't believe that the Red Army, which had been unable to hold out, had rushed out of the position at this time, what did they want to do.

The two did not hesitate for long, and then the third correspondent also hurried to arrive, bringing the news that the rear artillery position had been captured by the Red Army.

The first two pieces of news had already shocked the two brigade commanders, and the third news directly scared the two of them, when did the Red Army go to the rear of the first brigade.

It's just that what they didn't expect even more was that the three bad news did not end, and then a correspondent came to report in despair: "It's not good, it's not good, it's not good, there are a large number of Red Bandit Army troops in the rear of our army, and the back road has been completely cut off by the Red Bandit Army." ”

"What?"

Hearing the last news, Li Tiejun was like being struck by lightning, and the whole person could no longer stand and took three steps back, if it wasn't for Li Zhengxian behind him to hold on, he would inevitably fall to the ground.

"Travel...... Traveler ......"

The Central Army is different from the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, as long as there is still one party member and cadre, they can continue to organize battles, and they who belong to the old army generally have only one backbone, and once the backbone collapses, the entire army is equivalent to nothing.

Seeing that Li Tiejun almost fell, they all shouted nervously for the brigade, fearing that the first brigade would fall apart after he fell.

After being held by Li Zhengxian and not falling, Li Tiejun couldn't help but show a miserable laugh and muttered: "The Red Bandit Army has such a big appetite, it is simply wishful thinking to want to eat my first brigade in the world directly." ”

After sighing, Li Tiejun immediately pushed away Li Zhengxian, who was holding him, straightened his chest and said to the people around him: "Communication soldiers, pass on my order, the front team of the whole army will become the rear team, give me an all-out breakthrough to the south, the 8th Division is behind us, the Red Army really thinks it can cut off our retreat, hum......"

With a cold snort, the order to retreat was immediately issued, and the 3rd Regiment, which was at the rear, took the lead in launching a death charge against the Red Army interception force, and for a time the guns were loud.

When the First Brigade was desperately counterattacking, the soldiers of the 107th Regiment of the Third Division of the Red Army who blocked their way sneered, it was not so easy to step over their corpses, and they had suffered a lot in their training in the past few months, and they had to shoot 100 rounds of ammunition every day just by practicing their guns, which was no longer the era in the past when they could be called veterans after a few bullets.

Before the Central Army began to counterattack, the 107th Regiment had already occupied a favorable position, and light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers were arranged layer by layer, forming a complex network of intertwined firepower, no matter where you attacked, you would be within the range of our firepower.

As soon as the 1st Brigade launched a counterattack, it was forced back by the light and heavy machine guns of the 107th Regiment, and because they were accustomed to group charges, they left a lot of corpses under the dense fire net.

When the Third Regiment of the First Brigade retreated, Li Tiejun had just arrived with people, and when he heard that the Third Regiment had retreated, Li Tiejun, who was angry, immediately called Li Wen and Yan Ming, the chief and deputy commanders of the Third Regiment, and scolded him: "Li Wen, Yan Ming, what's the matter with you two?" Not to mention that the Red Army touched the rear and stole the artillery position, and now you can't even break through the encirclement, are you still the commander of my first brigade in the world? ”

"Don't be angry, I will organize the manpower to launch a breakthrough again, and the prestige of the first brigade in the world cannot be ruined in our hands." was scolded a few times by the brigade commander, although Li Wen's face was a little unbearable, but this was not the time to refute, and if he couldn't get the brigade seat, he would take him as a sacrifice flag. Instead of that, it is better to organize people to go back and fight, and only after victory can they wash away their defeats.

Although Li Tiejun was angry, it was not good what happened to Li Wen and the others at this time, so he had to change his tone and said: "Brothers, starting from the Huangpu Teaching Group, we are the main force brought out by the principal himself, and now we are unlucky, and we are temporarily trapped here by the Red Bandit Army, but it does not mean that we will fail here." Not far to the south is Wentai Township, the headquarters of the 8th Division of the 37th Army, and at this time he must have known our situation here, and he will definitely do his best to support us. The Red Bandit Army thought that they were surrounding us, but in fact, the Red Bandit Army itself jumped into the gap between our 1st Brigade and the 8th Division of the 37th Army. ”

After Li Tiejun finished speaking, Li Zhengxian next to him continued: "Brothers, this time it is not the Red Bandit Army that surrounds us, but our First Brigade and the 8th Division of the 37th Army jointly encircling the Red Bandit Army, as long as the enemy in front of us is defeated, victory will be ours." ”

"Brothers, if you want to make a contribution, give me a rush."

With the instigation of the two brigade commanders, Li Wen and Yan Ming also stood up at this time, raised the pistols in their hands, and shouted slogans for the brothers of the 3rd Regiment to fight back against the 107th Regiment of the Red Army with them.

The soldiers of the First Brigade did not understand what the two brigade commanders said, but when they saw that the main and deputy brigade commanders were by their side, the morale of the army stabilized a lot, and it was not as panicked as if they were cut off by the Red Army at the beginning, but gradually resumed their organization under the command of the officers of various departments, and launched a charge against the 107th Regiment of the Red Army for the second time.

When the 1st Brigade launched the second wave of charges, the 8th Division of the 37th Army stationed in Wentai Township also received information, if it was normal, Mao Bingwen might not be able to save him, and it was a good thing for him to have one less competitor, and everyone did this kind of thing.

But now that it is the chairman's first brigade that is besieged, and it is not impatient to live if he does not save him when he sees death. Although he usually hates the First Brigade of the Royal Forest Army, he can make a good relationship at this time, and the capital he gets will be inexhaustible in the future. At that moment, all the main forces of the 8th Division were mobilized and prepared to go north to rescue the besieged 1st Brigade.

Mao Bingwen wanted to rescue the 1st Brigade, but he didn't expect that it was not one regiment that stood between him and Li Tiejun, but two regiments, the 107th Regiment was responsible for fighting the 1st Brigade, and the 108th Regiment was responsible for intercepting the 8th Division.

At the beginning of the battle, the 108th Regiment took out all its strength, and began to cover the attack with grenade launchers at a distance of 800 meters, and 500 meters away was the PKM machine gun group strafing, and after entering 400 meters, the 56 and a half, 56 Chong, and 56 light machine guns went into battle together, and in an instant the 8th Division was beaten to the point of crying dad and mother.
