Chapter 094: National Shock II

Thanks to the "legendary little people" for the tip.

In the near future, if you want to speed up the progress of the anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, the army is blind and blindly breaks these things and often breaks these things, which is really a tragedy......

――――――――――――――――

Killing generals in battle, this is a taboo for soldiers, Hu Zongnan is not dizzy, it is impossible to shoot Huang Jie and Mao Bingwen at this time, and his position is not enough to be arbitrary.

Putting aside the anger in his heart, Hu Zongnan also knew that this encirclement and suppression campaign would not be able to continue, who would have thought that the Red Army could burst out with such a powerful combat effectiveness.

With the intention of retreating in his heart, he no longer blamed Huang Jie and the others for retreating without authorization, but planned to let them all retreat, concentrate their forces to break through to the south, and the rest was to wait for the two regiments sent out to send back the information.

In anxious waiting, Hu Zongnan finally got the information of the two regiments going south, and the two regiments of the Northwest Supplementary Brigade searched all the way to the south, and sure enough, they encountered the Red Army troops in the Banqiao area and the Baimapu area.

According to Hu Zongnan's orders, both regiments carried out a tentative attack, and then they were devastated by the Red Army, and even if the two regiments withdrew in time, they each lost a battalion to the Red Army.

After the tentative attack, the two regiments immediately retreated, and according to the information they reported, Hu Zongnan guessed that the Banqiao area and the Baimapu area were at least one division's strength, and although there were not many heavy weapons, the light weapons were still far superior to his First Army.

Thinking of such a large-scale change of clothes by the Red Army, Hu Zongnan was very shocked in his heart, when did the Soviet Russians have to be so generous, when the Whampoa Military Academy was established, the little thing that was aided was still rubbed for a long time, and I don't know what these old Maozi think.

No matter what the Soviet Russia, which provided assistance, wanted to do, the Red Army was reborn from the ashes this time, and it actually defeated his First Army, and it will not be so easy to destroy it in the future.

Hu Zongnan was very worried that if the Red Army developed and grew like this, where would their People's Party still have a foothold, and he didn't know how the principal would face this crisis.

The principal was worried about the strategic issues, and Hu Zongnan no longer had to worry about his brain, and what he urgently needed now was how to solve the dilemma of the First Army being surrounded.

After the two regiments of the Northwest Supplementary Brigade retreated, Wang Jun's Third Army, Mao Bingwen's 37th Army, and Huang Jie's Second Brigade also retreated from the front line, and now they are all concentrated in Qingcheng, not only occupying the entire Qingcheng, but also occupying a large area outside the city.

Compared to the retreat of all the divisions, the luck of the second division was much worse, except for Li Yutang who escaped with the division headquarters, and the rest of the troops became the results of the Red Army.

Everyone gathered in Qingcheng, Hu Zongnan did not cure them of the crime of defeat, but Li Yutang first challenged Mao Bingwen, cursing him for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and even sold his second division to the Red Army without saying a word.

Mao Bingwen refused to admit it, and said angrily that he had fought on the front line for more than ten days, and he was already a tired division, how could he stop the wolf-like Red Army, and his troops also suffered heavy losses in the battle of Yuele Town.

Seeing that the two were arguing back and forth, and there were even signs of using force, Hu Zongnan stood up at the right time to stop them, and after each played thirty boards, he changed the topic and said that now the army is trapped, and when the sincere unity solves the difficulties, any contradictions can be resolved after the war.

When it comes to the current situation, everyone can't help but hang their heads, and before the war, they were all in high spirits, thinking that they could make contributions this time, but they didn't expect that not only did they not catch their achievements, but they almost took all their capital, and the atmosphere was naturally very low.

By now, everyone knows that the battle of encirclement and suppression cannot be fought, and now it is not they encircling and suppressing the Red Army at all, but the Red Army is encircling and suppressing them, and the gap between the two sides is really sensational, and no one believes it.

Once upon a time, the Red Army was just a group of bandits in their eyes, and the Red Army's fighting methods were mostly based on guerrilla warfare.

But now, the Red Army not only did not lose to them on the frontal battlefield, but far surpassed them, how can this battle continue.

Seeing that everyone was depressed, Hu Zongnan didn't say anything to strike, but encouraged a few words, and then began to discuss the tasks of the next departments, who will contain them, who will break through, and who will be responsible for the turnover in the middle.

After fighting with the Red Army, no one is willing to directly confront the Red Army, so whether it is a containment task or a breakthrough task, most people do not want to take over, they always feel that it is an impossible task, and they want to go to the middle to be responsible for the response.

They only want the good and not the bad, and the vices of the old army are now fully manifested, fighting for the task of the middle, but no one will give in.

In desperation, Hu Zongnan had no choice but to use his position as the supreme commander to make an arbitrary decision, ordering Wang Jun's Third Army and Liao Ang's Northwest Supplementary Brigade to be responsible for breaking through, Mao Bingwen's 37th Army to be responsible for containment, and Huang Jie's Second Brigade to be in the center to respond.

Mao Bingwen and Wang Jun were naturally dissatisfied with this result, but they were helpless, who called Hu Zongnan their commander along the way, and Hu Zongnan was very favored in front of the chairman, and his status was much more noble than them.

Despite their reluctance, the divisions acted separately as ordered, with the Third Army and the Northwest Supplementary Brigade taking the lead in rushing to the south.

After the initial confrontation, the various departments of the Central Army already knew that their strength was not as good as that of the Red Army, so this time the breakthrough of the Third Army and the Northwest Supplementary Brigade did not divide the troops into two routes, but combined one road to attack Baimapu, which led to Qingyang City, which was Hu Zongnan's best choice.

After the departure of the Third Army and the Northwest Supplementary Brigade, Mao Bingwen's 37th Army also began to build a defensive line in Qingcheng, although he did not want to take on the task of containing the rear at all.

Because the Red Army needed a certain amount of time to replenish ammunition after each battle, the 37th Army had the opportunity to build a defensive line in Qingcheng, and after a busy day, when the construction of the defensive line was completed, the Red Army began to appear near Qingcheng.

As if they had expected that they would not be able to escape, the Red Army began to build positions opposite the 37th Army without hurrying along the way, not at all worrying that the 37th Army would come out to make trouble.

The distance between the positions of the two sides was not far away, and Mao Bingwen could see clearly what was busy on the Red Army position with a telescope, and he glanced all the way over, and couldn't help but stop at one position.

Through the binoculars, Mao Bingwen saw that the Red Army seemed to be carrying something in groups of five, which was more like the common 75 mountain guns in shape, but what was in the hands of the Red Army, there were three rows and four columns of gun barrels, which had never been seen before.

Is this a cannon?

Mao Bingwen's first reaction was this.

Then I saw another group of Red soldiers pushing a small cart, which was filled with wooden boxes, which seemed to be ammunition boxes, and Mao Bingwen guessed that it should be artillery shells.

Sure enough, as he expected, after the Red Army removed the wooden box and opened it, they took out shells from inside, which should be 105 caliber heavy guns.

It's just that such a large-caliber heavy artillery, how to launch that strange multi-barreled mountain cannon, Mao Bingwen is really curious, and it is unheard of that a cannon can be made like this.

When he was curious, the Red Army had already stuffed the shells into the barrels of the multi-barreled mountain cannons one by one, and they just filled the barrels, Mao Bingwen was really curious about how they fired, and he was choked by the Red Army's artillery these days.

With a bunch of questions, Mao Bingwen watched the Red Army arrange artillery positions, and at the same time ordered all departments to prepare for battle.

After the Red Army's position was ready, Mao Bingwen finally saw a commander-like Red Army commanding each group of artillery with a banner, and before the last order was issued, he saw the multi-barreled mountain artillery "Boom" firing shells continuously, which startled Mao Bingwen.

Mao Bingwen didn't know how the Red Army fired multi-barreled mountain artillery, nor did he know how that strange-shaped mountain artillery could fire cannonballs, but the moment he saw the rocket artillery fired, he opened his voice in shock and shouted: "Shelling...... Hidden ......"

As soon as his words fell, the Red Army's 107th rocket artillery fell on the position of the 37th Army, and a series of thunderous explosions erupted, and the landslide shook so that it was not frightening.

When Mao Bingwen was frightened, Hu Zongnan, who was located in the military headquarters of the First Army in Qingcheng, was also startled, although he had long heard his subordinates constantly complain about how fierce the Red Army's artillery fire was, this was the first time he had listened so closely.

Hearing the continuous explosions, Hu Zongnan couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, this artillery fire was too powerful, the Red Army was really willing to throw money, it seemed that the Red Army had received far more aid than the principal imagined.

In the face of such a strong artillery bombardment, Hu Zongnan's long-standing boredom was finally relieved, and with such a powerful artillery support, if the Red Army could not defeat his First Army, then the Red Army would no longer be the Red Army.

The roar in his ears was still endless, and everyone in the military headquarters of the First Army was worried, but Hu Zongnan did not have the initial worry, but a relieved look, mixed with a little guilt.

After fighting for so many years, although Hu Zongnan's ability is not high, he still has vision, and now in this situation, he knows that he may have lost the opportunity to escape, and it is useless to struggle, it is better to simply wait for the arrival of the Red Army.

After learning about his ending, Hu Zongnan looked relaxed, but he always felt sorry for the principal in his heart and lived up to his old man's high expectations for him.

When Hu Zongnan accepted his fate, Hu Shouqian, the chief of staff next to him, kept regretting that it would be good if there were still planes now, and with the support of planes, there would be more or less a chance to escape, but the Air Force ......

Thinking of the air force, Hu Shouqian felt very strange, originally in order to support this encirclement and suppression campaign, the principal assigned the only few planes to Hu Zongnan's command, and the air base was placed in Xi'an, as long as Hu Zongnan gave an order, he could take off at any time to support.

It's just that no one thought that as soon as the plane was assembled in Xi'an, a large-scale fire broke out at Xi'an Airport that night, burning all the only planes of the People's Party.
