"Report to the marshal. One unit arrived at dawn in the early hours of the morning, 10 kilometers away in the town of Suqiao. ”

An adjutant hurried into the bunker of the forward position with a briefcase and reported to Shen Hongying, who was pouting and holding a telescope.

The two flattering guards hurriedly helped him sit back on the big chair covered with mink, Shen Hongying took the lit hookah bubble, took a few big sips, and soothed some pain before lazily asking, "Is it Li Zongren's little eggy army?" ”

"It was foggy in the morning, and I couldn't see exactly where the other party was coming from. However, the other party acted quickly, and only one of the lurking sentinels ran back on horseback to report the news. After the adjutant finished speaking, he stood quietly aside, doing things under Shen Hongying, he didn't have to worry about anything, just bow his head and be obedient.

"Send a regiment, no, draw out a brigade to block in the back. Let people shout, just say that I, Shen Hongying, welcome all the heroes who come to help, but I am not afraid that they will come to help Lu Rongting. If it's all about the idea of fighting Guilin, let's say that we will give up the south to attack them, and after the fight, Lao Tzu doesn't want Guilin. ”

Shen Hongying's brows twitched for a while, and his subordinates who were familiar with his action knew that he wanted to rob money and women again. Far from being disgusted, many people are eager to try it out in anticipation. The county town and town, they have robbed a lot, and this huge Guilin is still the first time. It seems that Dashuai has changed his mind and doesn't want Guilin, and is ready to take a handful and leave as usual.

"Quick...... Hurry up ......"

Lingshang Village is the only way to the western gateway of Guilin, a brigade of Shen Hongying's troops have already occupied this place, Shen Hongying's troops, who got the news in advance, are ready to come up with a way to share the spoils with force, and persuade the troops who came to fight the autumn wind to join the camp of attacking Guilin. Of course, if it is an enemy...... "Brothers, listen to Lao Tzu." Wait to listen to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu shouts and beats, everyone aims a little. Lao Tzu didn't shout to fight, who dared to put a gun indiscriminately Lao Tzu slammed him. ”

A brigade commander, whose hat was all off, waved his hand and signaled the troops to start preparing.

"Brigade commander, how long will it take to start fighting? I'm in a hurry,...... a regimental commander ran to the brigade commander and whispered instructions.

"You fucking lazy person has a lot of shit and pee, go ahead, I think it will be at least more than half an hour before it ......"

"Tom...... Tong...... Tom...... "Before the brigade commander finished speaking, he heard a strange voice, saying that it was a cannon, the voice was a little quieter, and it was a cannon battle, and the sound was louder.

"Boom ......"

Before he could figure it out, he couldn't even tell that the sound was very close, so he only felt that after a violent explosion, he was no longer conscious...... "Good job!" The boys of the artillery battalion finally did not waste the training shells of the past few years. ”

In the col here, after clearly seeing that the enemy officers were blown away by artillery shells and fell down the mountain like kites with broken strings, Chen Jun put down his binoculars and couldn't help but applaud the performance of the mortar battalion just now. The troops set off in the early morning, and the advance company was the first to arrive by car. When the vanguard had just arrived, they found that a force was coming from the direction of Guilin City on the opposite side, and they were actually preparing to climb the mountain to lay out the defensive line.

The distance of 10 kilometers was already very short, especially when the militia troops had trucks that moved quickly, and soon even the baggage troops arrived at Lingshang Village.

"It's okay to dress so well, I look like an official, and I stand in the most conspicuous place, I deserve to be covered by artillery fire." Ye Yulong, the political commissar of the Second Brigade, couldn't help but be happy, as an old man of the militia and a graduate of the first phase of the Huaxia Military Academy, he also understood the truth of the speed of the soldiers, "Brigade commander, let me personally lead the team to rush!" ”

"No way!" Chen Jun raised his hand and rejected his application, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Because I also want to go, you can command the formation in the back, and let me come to this batch of minions." ”

After speaking, he immediately ordered: "Order! ”

"Yes!!"

"Order, concentrate the mortars of the various companies and cooperate with the brigade's heavy mortar battalion to suppress fire. Order the first regiment to attack from the front, and the second and third regiments to outflank it, and be sure to resolve the battle as quickly as possible! ”

In the face of an opponent who was not at all of the same level, although Chen Jun was cautious enough, he easily gave the battle order.

"Tom...... Tong...... Tom ......"

According to the calculation of three mortars in a company, plus the heavy mortar battalion directly under it, nearly eighty mortars of the entire second brigade began to let out a low roar together.

The shell pulled a faint white trail and shot at the opposite hill in a curve visible to the naked eye. Because they witnessed their brigade commander and several senior officers being killed by a few shells, the bandits of Shen Hongying's army, who were still in a daze, could withstand this kind of overwhelming bombardment.

As soon as the first salvo of shells exploded on the top of the hill, not to mention the casualties, the psychological defense line of the bandit army was immediately pushed down.

"Ah...... Yes!!! Run......" After a Shen bandit saw the brigade commander being blown up, he saw that the company commander who was seven or eight meters away from him was blown up into flying fragments.

Beat? What a hit!! Both the brigade commander and the adjutant were killed. With so many artillery on the other side, this battle can't be fought.

"Rush!"

The three regiments of the militia in charge of the attack, seeing the sound of shells, immediately organized their troops to charge, and under the suppression of a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns, the defenseless and fortified opponent could raise his head and shoot with the advantage of the hill alone, that is called a strange thing.

"Da Da Da ......"

Hearing the sound of the opponent's heavy machine guns beeping and popping like fried beans in an iron pot, this side ran faster, and no one thought about death at all, the dragons were leaderless, lack of training, low equipment, and frightened in the first battle...... So, after only two mortar salvos, when the three regiments rushed up, all they saw was a brigade of bandits fleeing in the direction of Guilin like ducks behind the mountain. The clever militia soldiers had already begun to slide down the hill to capture the bandits.

"Damn! At this point, the troops were ordered to board the vehicles at once and take the garbage prisoners on the spot. After removing the bolt of the gun, send troops to watch. ”

Chen Jun helplessly looked at the bandits who fled quickly, and he could only chase them with a truck, otherwise he would have to chase them all the way to the city of Guilin.

Two legs can't outrun a car, especially the new big trucks of the vigilante group. In less than ten minutes, most of the bandit brigade was captured.

There was no way, the bandits who ran away only barely broke their belts, when they heard the shouts of engines and loudspeakers from behind, they looked back curiously, and saw heavy machine guns on large trucks, chasing after them, less than half a minute, and those who dared to run were knocked down by a shuttle of heavy machine gun bullets.

"Lay down your arms, surrender and don't kill. If you run again, you'll shoot. ”

In Guilin City, "Lu Supervisor, the contemptible Wei Sancai, in his capacity as the plenipotentiary representative of Dongchuan District in Guilin, officially informs you that our reinforcements have arrived outside the city and are about to launch a general attack. I ask the Lu Governor to immediately organize a counterattack and prevent the possible rout of troops entering the city and harming the civilian people. ”

Wei Sancai stood in front of Lu Rongting in a formal suit, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he knew that from today onwards, Guilin, and even the entire Guangxi, would have to change his surname.

"How many people are coming?" Lu Rongting, who had been tormented by a week-long fierce battle, finally heard the best news since the start of the war.

"One and a half divisions!" Wei Sancai said ambiguously, he didn't dare to say that there was only a brigade outside the city, and it was estimated that Lu Rongting would not dare to organize an elite counterattack. He didn't lie to him, a division and a half of troops were just scattered. From the military briefing he had just received, he already knew the details of the military operation.

"Good! Good! Good! Lu Rongting pulled out the gun on his waist and waved, "Yun Lun, immediately gather our most elite troops and follow Lao Tzu out of the city." ”

In his opinion, with the elite of the Dongchuan Army, a unit and a half divisions, Shen Hongying will definitely not be able to defeat it. Fortunately, he didn't know that the Dongchuan Army had only one brigade outside the city.

"Dada...... Bang...... Boom ......"

Outside Guilin, continuous explosions sounded from all directions almost simultaneously, and Shen Hongying, who had just heard the violent sound of battle coming from the direction of Lingshui Village and was about to send someone to check the situation, was trying to gather his troops with a hideous face at this time.

"Tom......"

A mortar shell even exploded in a pile of stones more than 30 meters away from him, and the soldiers who were gathering around him suddenly fell down with a scream.

"Dashuai, something is wrong!!"

The earth-shattering sound of guns seemed to come from all directions, as if several divisions of troops were attacking Shen Hongying's department at the same time, and finally, a staff officer ran over, "Marshal, I don't know where the troops came from, there are so many machine guns and cannons that they are scared to death, first they defeated the third brigade of Reading Force, and now they have launched a full-scale attack on us." Lu Rongting in the city also rushed out with a brigade of men and horses!! ”

The bandit armies that were scattered and arranged, the bandit armies that fought fiercely for several days, and the bandit armies that were poorly trained, did not even know how to organize an effective defense when they encountered a sudden surprise attack from behind.

"Fuck me, I've seen a lot of big battles, and I can't keep my grandfather in Guilin today." Shen Hongying ordered the other officers to gather the troops responsible for attacking and encircling Guilin, and at the same time jumped on the seven or eight large boxes that were urgently moved, and hurriedly prepared to repeat the old tune: "Listen to Lao Tzu, these eight boxes ......."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the sound of dense engines in the distance, standing on the box, the leader of the bandit army looked back, and suddenly opened his mouth wide, only to see seven or eight large trucks driving on the open avenue outside Guilin at some point.

This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that there is a heavy machine gun mounted on it.

"Block, all for Lao Tzu, reward 100, no, 1000, I reward 1......"

The heavy machine guns on the truck fired together, and one of the machine gun bullets fired from a shuttle just broke Shen Hongying, who was standing on the box and was about to organize a death squad.

"Lay down your arms and surrender without dying." As the truck moved back and forth, shouting slogans of surrender with loudspeakers, some stubborn bandits tried to lie down and shoot or find a shelter to continue their resistance, but they were torn to pieces by a heavy machine-gun bullet fired by a shuttle.

This is happening all over Guilin.

The nearly 20,000 bandit troops scattered were either attacked from behind by the suddenly rushing troops, or were strafed by several large trucks with sandbags and heavy machine guns. Instead of wanting to resist in the open area, what they were waiting for was a string of shells that were close to killing.

The training was low, he fought for seven days in a row, he was short of ammunition, he had no fighting spirit, the difference in firepower was too great, and he was caught in front and ...... For half a day, there was such a situation everywhere outside Guilin City, Shen Hongying, the leader of the bandit army in the troubled times, was completely defeated.

——————————" reported to the chief of staff that the battle outside Guilin had been basically resolved, and the battlefield was now being cleaned up. The communications staff officer trotted in front of Jiang Baili and reported with a salute.

"Order: one more mortar three-fire salvo. Then tell Li Zongren that he still has two minutes left, and if he does not surrender immediately and unconditionally, we will launch a general attack on time. "Jiang Baili still has some knowledge of Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, but he is a soldier in troubled times, and he has some power to fight and fight in his heart, and he is still talented in general. Moreover, the other party did not make any mistakes, according to Zhang Shusheng's instructions, if the two of them lived up to their stubborn resistance, they would be caught. If it doesn't work, it's killing.

After all, Guangxi doesn't need this department or that department, Guangxi only needs one person's voice, and unfortunately, Li and Bai, who wanted to send out their own troops, embarked on the wrong path for the first time.

Five minutes later, the communications staff officer came running and reported: "Report to the chief of staff, Li Zongren has officially announced his unconditional surrender at 12:34 p.m.!" ”

"Okay, forward the battle situation to Brigadier Chen Jun and Division Commander Chu Shiwen."

"Yes!"

After Chu Shiwen received the report on the battle situation, he immediately ordered: "Order the troops to immediately launch a battle to recover Nanning." ”…… Damn, it's harder to go back to your hometown in the southwest for the New Year than to take the Shu Road.
