For every commander of the Central Army who dealt with the Red Army, the Red Army was good at fighting a war. And this, it seems, is even more so with independent divisions. If you are not careful, you may fall into an ambush by an independent division.

It was learned that the three main regiments of the independent division had rushed to the direction of Huding in advance to join the main forces. The task of responding to the logistics units of the independent division was entrusted to the Red Ninth Army Corps, which crossed the river later than the independent division.

This situation, after detailed reconnaissance, was finally confirmed by the 86th Division and the encirclement and suppression coalition forces. Xue Yue, who also felt that this was an opportunity, immediately ordered Liu Wenhui's two divisions to cooperate with the 86th Division of the Central Army to attack.

Even if he can't completely annihilate the independent division and eliminate the remnants of the independent division that is still on the side of the Dadu River, in Xue Yue's opinion, he can also redeem a little bit, and he lost points with Chairman Chiang. He also believed that Liu Wenhui did not dare not cooperate.

Having the command of the two divisions of the Sichuan Army, Xu Guangyao, the commander of the 86th Division, looked at the commanders of the 86th Division gathered together, and finally issued the order to attack Fuzhuang and surround the rest of the independent division.

Xu Guangyao, who was the main attacker this time, was still left to the 86th Division. As for the Sichuan army that cooperated with him in the battle, what he hoped the other party would do was to block it. Even before the start of the offensive, the regiment that the Red Ninth Army received was driven across the Dadu River.

If it can't be rushed, it must also prevent the return of this main regiment. Wait until the 86th Division finishes the battle, and then see if it crosses the river to pursue the Red Ninth Army Corps, depending on the situation. But after crossing the river to pursue, Xu Guangyao felt somewhat dangerous.

After the order was issued, in order to ensure the safety of the 86th Division, Xu Guangyao still ordered the Dian army and the Gui army behind them to speed up and rush over. When the time comes, if there is any problem, they can be rescued in time.

In order to ensure the safety of the attack, Xu Guangyao's first order was to let Liu Wenhui's troops launch an attack on the Red Ninth Army. When the Sichuan army dragged into the main regiment of the Red Ninth Army, Xu Guangyao finally gave the order to attack.

Looking at the three main regiment commanders under his command, Xu Guangyao said very seriously: "Brothers, this battle is fought, and we can all show our faces greatly. I believe you have chased this way, and you should be tired of chasing it, right?

Fight this battle well and annihilate the remnants of this independent division that is still in Fuzhuang, and we will win the first merit in entering the Sichuan operation. I believe that when the time comes, the reward given by the peak will also be very rich.

After going down, tell the brothers of the 86th Division. This battle is fought, Lao Tzu is promoted to become rich, and he will definitely not forget his brothers. If I can become a military commander in the future, you will definitely become a division commander too. ”

Knowing that after this pursuit, including him, the division commander, he was actually tired of chasing. Many people, as soon as they heard the order to start the march, felt very distressed. It seems that it is necessary to fight this battle now!

'Master, just look at it! This independent division is made of iron, and we are going to smash it this time. Except for the main regiment of defense, the combat effectiveness of those logistics troops in the town is not to worry about at all. ’

'Good! Then I'll be in the rear, waiting for your good news! ’

As the 86th Division launched an attack on Fuzhuang, the main force responsible for Fuzhuang's defense said with a smile: "It seems that the division commander is really right, this 86th Division is really the master who bullies the soft and fears the hard." If you want to enter the town, you have to show some real effort!

Tell the first battalion not to beat me too hard. When the time is right, give them a position. But before retreating, I must be given at least one regiment of the enemy to be disabled! ”

When the 86th Division launched the encirclement and attack on Fuzhuang, the main force of the independent division lurking outside the town, under the leadership of He Zhengdao, also launched an action and carried out a counter-encirclement of the 86th Division that entered Fuzhuang.

And Luo Shanhui, who was staying at the mouth of the Dadu River at the moment, looked at the attacking Sichuan army, and said to the messenger beside him: "Send a report to the independent division and ask them if they have sealed the mouth?" If the mouth is sealed, we will be ready to fight back. ”

'Yes, Captain! ’

With the opportunity of delivering beef, He Zhengdao thought of a combat plan to lure the enemy into depth. The logistics troops of the independent division acted as the lure, and the Red Ninth Army cooperated with the singing to lure the 86th Division to attack in advance.

The Sichuan army, which was currently attacking the Red Ninth Army, although there were two divisions of more than 20,000 troops. But for Luo Zhihui, after some fighting, he saw that the opponent's attack was not strong, but he was more inclined to defend with all his might.

This means that the 86th Division wants to use these two Sichuan divisions to contain the main force of the Red Ninth Army Corps and make it unable to support the independent division troops in Fuzhuang. But the 86th Division did not know at all that it was not the main force of the independent division that crossed the river.

The real main force, when they attacked, had already gone around behind them to copy their rear. Once the independent division completes the encirclement, the Red Ninth Army will also launch a counterattack and completely defeat the two blocking Sichuan divisions.

If this battle can be fought well, the main force of the Red Army will be in the Ganzi area next, and I believe that it will be able to live a more stable life. After all, the combined strength of these three divisions also reached 30,000 or 40,000 troops!

After receiving the telegram from the Red Ninth Legion, He Zhengdao said with a smile: "It seems that our Commander Luo is a little anxious!" Call back to the Red Ninth Legion, and they can start a counterattack. Just don't go too fast, be careful to scare this eighty-sixth division. ”

When He Zhengdao was outflanked, the 86th Division, which attacked Fuzhuang, also felt a deep helplessness. Even if there was only one regiment of the main force of the Red Army in front of them, they made their offensive very hard.

Looking at the light and heavy machine guns that could be seen everywhere on the position, the commander of the attacking 86th Division also couldn't help but scold his mother: "How is this possible? When and when was the Red Army also armed with so many light and heavy machine guns? ”

Faced with the situation of sending one batch and falling another. The three regiment commanders who took turns to serve as the main attack all felt very angry. After paying almost a regiment of troops, Xu Guangyao finally saw some hope.

'Okay, the three regiments have attacked! Order the first regiment and the second regiment to send the main force to me. Strive for a strong momentum, give me to attack the town of Fuzhuang, and encircle and suppress these Red Army. That regiment was the first to attack the town, and whoever was the first to attack in this battle! ’

Stimulated by the first attack, the three main commanders all used their skills to eat milk and began to attack the defensive positions of a regiment. At this time, the attacking 86th Regiment could also see that the Red Army in the town had rushed to support.

This scene did not make them feel strange, and even happy. Many grassroots commanders of the Central Army immediately smiled and said, "Brothers, work harder!" The Red Army will not hold out for long, and victory will surely be ours! ”

It's just that these attacking Central Army didn't expect that most of the reinforcements sent by the town were recruits who came to feel the actual battle. A regiment was really placed on the position, and there was only one main force and one battalion.

The task of the first battalion on the position is to instruct and supervise these recruits on how to fight this kind of defensive battle. But Zhang Cheng was still waiting for the counteroffensive order from He Zhengdao.

When I saw the 86th Division, I attacked desperately as if I had beaten chicken blood. Zhang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Let the artillery company push those oil drum guns to the position." Cool down these deadly creatures and let them know the consequences of attacking our mess. ”

'Captain, will this scare them away?' ’

'No, it won't! Our recruits, although they fought well. But have you noticed that after they took the position, the death toll of the enemy was decreasing. In this case, the enemy will feel that we have no troops to use.

Now we are using oil drum cannons, firstly, to cheer up the recruits, and secondly, to make the enemy feel that there are not many ways at our disposal. And looking at this time, the division commander and they are almost finished outflanking! ’

After the order was given, several flying thunder cannons that had been specially left in the regiment finally let out a roar again. For this kind of 'home-made' heavy artillery, which is both an offensive and defensive killing weapon, the effect of defending is amazing!

Hearing the huge explosion that came, Xu Guangyao, who was watching the battle from behind, said with a shocked face: "What kind of cannon is this?" Why is it so powerful? Tell the attacking troops not to huddle together and to disperse to carry out the attack. ”

Seeing that a cannon came down from the offensive position, and the people around him for dozens of meters would suffer, Xu Guangyao immediately realized that this was the killer weapon of the independent division. If a collective charge is adopted, the price paid is too severe.

In fact, after a round of unconscionable artillery shelling, many soldiers of the Central Army who participated in the attack felt that their legs trembled a little. The officers and soldiers who had been directly hit before could not find even intact bodies under such shells.

How could they not be afraid of such a powerful weapon?

Xu Guangyao, whose offensive morale was lost, knew that this battle must be persevered. Now it will be up to both sides to see who can withstand the pressure. If they couldn't end the battle as soon as possible, their 86th Division was afraid that it would also be in danger.

At such a big price, if you don't get any return, then this battle is really lost!

Just when the 86th Division regrouped and planned to continue the offensive. After receiving the telegram from He Zhengdao, Zhang Cheng also smiled and said: "Okay! The division commander had already copied their rear roads and told the battalions to prepare for a counterattack. ”

The arrival of the counterattack moment also realized that the 86th Division, which had been lured into the bait, was running out of time before it was completely annihilated!
