At 11 o'clock in the morning, two kilometers west of Fengxian County, there was a fierce exchange of fire, billowing smoke rising and the explosions of grenades and mortar shells incessantly, and it was recognized from the sound that at least one division or more army was fighting fiercely. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In Jiangzhuang, six kilometers north-west of Fengxian, Jiang Jicheng, commander of the Ninth Division of the Anhui Army, finally ordered the whole army to stop advancing, and the gunfire in the direction of Fengxian stopped, as if the two armies were engaged in a fierce battle, so there was no doubt that the Ninth Division, which had been ordered to reinforce, came quickly, and it was difficult to believe that one or two divisions of the revolutionary army could conquer Fengxian guarded by one or two main divisions of the Anhui Army and another mixed brigade within a day or two.

After repeated radio contacts, there was no news of the Sixth Division of Fengxian County, and Sun Chuanfang, commander-in-chief of the Anhui Army, was so anxious that he could not clearly judge the battle situation, and only five hours had passed since the telegram of the attack on the defenders of Fengxian County, but the strange thing was that there was no news after that, and now there was only one exact information that had just been received in front of the generals of the Anhui Army: The ace An Yi Division of the ace division of the revolutionary army had left the camp in the north of Xuzhou City and went to the front line of Fengpei (Fengxian and Peixian).

Forty-one-year-old Jiang Jicheng was deeply impressed by An Yi's division and An Yi himself, a veteran general who graduated from the fifth phase of the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, clearly remembered the fierce battle at Litouzui and Baguazhou on the morning of August 12 last year. Compared with An Yishi's impressive record of running all the way to eliminate several times the enemy of his own, Jiang Jicheng deeply felt that the victory he had achieved was so not worth mentioning, and this sense of frustration that victory was not as good as defeat had never been encountered in Jiang Jicheng's more than 20 years of military career, and it also made him haunted.

The young Xiao general An Yi folded his wings in Bagua Continent and almost wiped out the whole army, and he escaped with his life and was framed by his own family, the entire Anhui army and the Zhilu army thought that he was disheartened and returned to the field, and Anxin Cai never came out to make trouble everywhere, and the generals in the Anhui army and the Zhilu army were also much more stable, although no one wanted to mention the name of An Yi, but the heart was really afraid of this newborn calf who did not pay attention to the rules and regulations, and there is still an interesting story in the northern armies:

Chu Yupu, the old commander of the Zhilu Army, who was beaten again and again by An Yi again and again, almost became a prisoner, and at noon that day was greeting the messenger sent by Zhang Zuolin, halfway through drinking, the news came that An Yi led hundreds of remnants to miraculously escape, Chu Shuai was immediately in great pain, threw a cup on the ground and stomped his feet and sighed: freaks are immortal, and they will be left behind for a thousand years!

Jiang Jicheng, who is not smiling and resolute, has never been afraid to talk about the battle between himself and An Yi, but he still doesn't know that several regiment commanders and regimental deputies under his command ordered the slaughter of hundreds of wounded soldiers of An Yi's division who lost resistance regardless of morality, and after cutting off their heads one by one, they still don't understand their hatred and kick their heads into the river, so Jiang Jicheng only attaches importance to An Yi leading his troops into the abundant battlefield, and does not have any fear

Jiang Jicheng is a very good general, and he provided the entire operational idea of taking advantage of the opportunity that was difficult for the various departments of the revolutionary army to coordinate and seize the opportunity to defeat Fang Zhenwu's three armies, and Fang Zhenwu had no way to see him being cut off by the waist, because Fang Zhenwu's three armies could really be called opponents only his 34th Army, and the other two miscellaneous armies that were dissatisfied with the formation were all vulnerable rabble in Jiang Jicheng's eyes.

Therefore, after defeating Fang Zhenwu's department, Jiang Jicheng didn't have much joy, but felt normal. He knew very well that Feng County was attacked by the enemy's general An Yi and his troops, and Feng Yuxiang's brave general Shi Yousan led three divisions to approach Jinxiang last night, and the commander Sun Chuanfang came out of the overall situation and had to shrink the defensive line, and reluctantly transferred the fourth division besieging He Yaozu's department and the tenth division that evacuated Shanxian to the front line of Jinxiang to hold on, and then transferred his ninth division, which had the strongest combat effectiveness, to the east to help Fengxian, which was only warned this morning, which is enough to show that Sun Chuanfang attaches great importance to An Yi.

A group of generals of the Ninth Division gathered around Jiang Jicheng, discussing nervously on the map, and the gunfire that had just stopped in the direction of Fengxian in the east sounded again, and the generals listened carefully for a moment, and now the gunfire became more and more intense, and the doubts in their hearts gradually eased, but the sense of anxiety became stronger and stronger.

At this moment, the screams of several mortar shells piercing the air were heard in the distance, and the shells landed in the middle of the vanguard resting a kilometer to the east, making a loud noise.

The generals looked nervously ahead, and an even more violent explosion was heard, and a huge mushroom-shaped smoke rose two kilometers to the east, and a large number of stones and wood rushed out of the smoke and shot into the sky.

The aftershocks did not stop, and the sound of "crackling" fire sounded on the north and south flanks of the front, followed by the exclamations and roars of the vanguard of the Ninth Division and the sound of machine guns and rifles returning fire.

Nearly 10 minutes passed, and the commander of the vanguard unit was sweating profusely and reported to his horse: "The enemy blew up a small bridge over the Taihang Embankment River two kilometers ahead, and the two flanks of our regiment were harassed by cold guns and artillery fired by small units of the enemy. ”

Jiang Jicheng, who was originally hesitant, finally made up his mind, he stood up, raised his head and said loudly:

"The enemy's purpose is already very obvious, they use a variety of means such as blowing up bridges, harassment, and attacks to obstruct the advance of our army, and silently swallow up the three groups of reconnaissance teams I sent, and its ultimate goal is only one, that is, they are unwilling to let us rescue the friendly troops in Fengxian who are fighting fiercely, so that we have doubts, so as to slow down or even stop the advance, so that they can seize time to storm our Fengxian defenders, if my judgment is right, the battle of Fengcheng should have entered the most critical moment!

I ordered the engineer battalion to go ahead at once to repair the bridge so that the rear artillery could pass; The four regiments of the 1st Advance Brigade immediately stopped resting, tried every means to cross the river, and galloped to the east! The 2nd Brigade, except for one battalion and artillery regiment, marched forward in full gear! ”

"Yes!"

The generals responded in unison, and the team of more than 10,000 people quickly set off, making a noise and stirring up a large amount of dust.

On the hillside 2.6 kilometers north of Jiangzhuang, An Yi, who was crawling among the lush weeds, put down his binoculars, turned his head to face the blue sky, and let out a long sigh:

"God has eyes! Jiang Jicheng, if you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle, it's so fucking cunning! Before the official start of the fight, we wasted more than 100,000 bullets, more than 1,000 grenades, and hundreds of mortar shells......

Hu Jialin, who was lying on his stomach, glanced at An Yi, shook his head disapprovingly, and joked with a smile: "It's done so realistically, don't talk about Jiang Jicheng, I'm afraid any of us will fall for your evil...... Who would have thought that in order to lure the enemy into the urn, you would be willing to shoot hundreds of thousands of bullets and so many shells? Especially the strategy of decisively blowing up the small bridge is really *** amazing! ”

Cheng Guang also smiled at An Yi: "No wonder you mentioned the allusion of Zhang Fei Changbanpo breaking the bridge according to the water during the Three Kingdoms just now, this strategy is really wonderful, I was worried that it would backfire at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to work as soon as I used it, it seems that this Jiang Jicheng is not as powerful as I imagined!" ”

Hu Jialin thoughtfully: "Some time ago, when I was in old Nanchang, I listened to Xiaoyi give a lot of lectures and benefited a lot, and this scene in front of me reminds me of many allusions, such as Zhuge Liang's empty city plan, isn't it just this play?" If he had closed the city gate early, would Sima Yi still be deceived? There is also Zhang Shougui guarding Guazhou, with hundreds of remnants and broken city walls to resist tens of thousands of strong soldiers in Tibet, he put wine on the city wall to have fun with the soldiers, but the Tubo people suspected that the city was prepared and did not dare to enter lightly, so they had to choose to retreat

In Jiang Jicheng's eyes, we are Zhuge Liang and Zhang Shougui who have no courage, he thinks that he has seen through our schemes, and it is difficult to think about it!

He ***, it seems that people will have weaknesses, true and false, false and false, and the so-called impermanence of soldiers, infinite changes, our ancestors' art of war is really broad and profound! ”

"Beard, you're right, but how clever are we? They were all forced to do this because they had no choice, and if they didn't kill him, the scout he would definitely see through our trap, and the scout who killed him was naturally vigilant and stopped, and there was really no way for me to gamble

However, we have far more chips than him...... If he knew that the brother troops who were ordered to rush to the aid were in trouble and ignored them, not only would his conscience be overwhelmed, but Sun Chuanfang would also be intolerable by military law, so he could not make other choices.

There is another one, Jiang Jicheng, who thinks very highly of himself, does not know that Fengxian, which is guarded by more than 15,000 people, has been taken by us by surprise, and he never imagined that the 33rd Army, which was about to collapse at the touch of a button, would be ashamed and brave, from a cowardly army that was deceived by others, to a brave army that dared to rush into the city at the cost of nearly 4,000 casualties and achieve victory, the enemy made the mistake of underestimating the opponent, it was very fatal! An Yi sighed very much.

Cheng Guang said with a smile: "Not only Jiang Jicheng can't think of it, but I also think it's incredible!" The 33rd Army, an army composed of bandits, bandits and defeated divisions, is not an ordinary indiscriminate, especially the relationship between Xu Fentao, the deputy commander who specializes in defeating battles, is intertwined in the army, no one thinks that you can easily put him on level, especially after cleaning up Xu Fentao and quickly reborn the 33rd Army, I think only you can do it in the whole army, and you can only go crazy if you change me and your beard. ”

An Yi shook his head disappreciatively: "It's actually very simple, as long as you are ruthless enough, there is no trick." Don't look at the 33rd Army's victory in the siege, it seems that the combat strength has made great progress, in fact, they are also forced, since those who retreat die, it is better to rush forward, saying that they may not be able to fight a way out to earn a future for themselves, and it turns out that they have done it. ”

Hu Jialin and Cheng Guangwan smiled, thinking about it, the three of them chatted for a while, ran down the hill together, jumped on their war horses, and galloped eastward surrounded by more than 100 staff officers and guards.

As soon as An Yi and the others left, the special brigade led by Li Fuqiang slowly concentrated here, with eight chief and deputy detachment leaders surrounding Li Fuqiang, two telegraph operators and a translator carrying radio stations and heavy iron battery boxes, squatting under a big tree four meters away, nervously waiting for the three detachments to come out with information.

Li Fuqiang pointed to the map and said in a deep voice: "The demolition detachment did a good job just now, if the enemy wants to successfully repair the small bridge, it will take at least more than an hour, and based on the progress of the enemy artillery regiment that is currently lagging behind, it will be driven to the bridgehead in forty minutes, because the bridge is not repaired, they can only wait stupidly, and we will start at that time."

Remember, I command your brethren to destroy only the enemy convoy, to leave as far as possible the enemy artillery and pack horses, and that the artillery regimental infantry battalion, fully equipped with machine guns, will cooperate with us and try to end the battle within ten minutes, and then we will at once rush to the northwest corner of the encirclement and assist a regiment to seal the enemy's retreat.

As for the captured enemy artillery, leave it to the detachment led by Deputy Captain Zong and the battalion commander Li Yuanjiang of the artillery regiment infantry battalion to deal with them, half of the brothers in the artillery regiment infantry battalion can operate artillery, and they force the enemy's artillery to shell the enemy's main force. ”

"Understood!"

The detachment commanders replied in a low voice.

"Good! Everyone, I'll send you the latest information every ten minutes, no matter what happens to the east, don't worry about him, we'll fight ours, let's get out! ”

Li Fuqiang watched his elite leave quickly, walked to the translator and squatted down and whispered.

On the north bank of the Taihang Causeway, more than 3,600 soldiers of the First and Second Regiments were crawling under the dense grass and tree roots, and a steel helmet with camouflage cloth was covered with small branches and withered grass.

At present, the vast majority of the army does not have much correct understanding of camouflage, the well-equipped and well-trained officers and men of the independent division have made all their profits, and the officers and men are watching the dusty west with a pair of angry eyes, as long as the enemy enters the area three kilometers away from the county seat, no one will worry that the enemy can turn around and flee, the artillery regiment in the south will be fiercely shelled the enemy's rear line, and the machine gun battalions of each regiment will also assist from the side, as long as there is a ten-minute artillery fire covering, Leaving aside the number of casualties of the more than 10,000 enemy troops who had no shelter, the main force would be driven to the center of the ambush circle by powerful artillery fire, and at that time, a team of more than 2,500 people, composed of the three regiments, the subordinate units, and all the brothers in the logistics department, would quickly rush into one bomb crater after another, and inflict a heavy blow on the enemy, and the entire encirclement would be completely connected.

There was no artillery to support the enemy troops on all sides, and under the powerful artillery fire of the independent division, more than 700 light and heavy machine guns, and nearly 10,000 rifles, there was nothing but destruction or destruction!
