Chapter 141: The Siege (4) Sun Chuanfang's Bitter Battle (2)

Bandits are bandits, and from 300 meters away, they began to fire their guns indiscriminately, and bullets rained down on the city walls. The chaotic formation looks huge, but the actual effect is very average. Such a scene is really not on the stage for these veterans of the Beiyang Army. The charge of attacking the inherent position, the scene of shooting while running, is really looking for death. The veterans are all bending over and looking up, constantly running curves, stopping and shooting, which is a live target.

The tide of people kept approaching, and there was still silence on the city wall, Bai Lang was very satisfied with the situation, thinking that the artillery bombardment should have played a role, or the Beiyang armament was frightened. Staff Officer Shen was also very satisfied, and looked a little excited and clenched his fists and swayed slightly. However, the expressions of several local officers in Henan who had been employed from Chapter 141 Siege (4) Sun Chuanfang's hard battle (2) became ugly.

Visually inspecting the arrows of the attacking troops are close to 200 meters away from the city, and there is still not a single shot fired on the city.

Sun Chuanfang stood beside the artillery observer and asked a little nervously, "How is it?" Can you stop the bandits from following up later? The observer, a young man with eyes, also said nervously: "It should be fine, six cannons." ”

"It's almost two hundred meters!" The observer shouted, Sun Chuanfang wiped the sweat on his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Fire!" ”

A red flag flashed, and a few muffled sounds!

The messy formations and messy costumes are like waves in the Yellow River after the rain sweeping forward. The shouting was very high-pitched, but it was quickly suppressed completely.

The explosion point of the mortar shell is like a cloud rising from the ground, and it is like a bowl of boiling soup splashed on the snow. In less than a minute, the originally scattered attack formation was blown up. The explosions were accompanied by screams, one by one.

Unexpectedly. The bandits did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and continued to rush forward. Sun Chuanfang also Chapter 141 Siege (4) Sun Chuanfang's hard battle (2) There was no time to be surprised, he raised his war knife and pointed forward: "Fire!" ”

The first to fire was a Ha-gas Case machine gun, which made a strange sound, as if some screw had not been tightened, with a little sand. There was no such thing as the sound of a Makqin shooting, which was very heavy.

As soon as the machine gun goes off, it is an order, and the platoon gun is the main firepower. They are all veterans, and they shoot accurately. A volley of guns blew down dead leaves like a gust of wind. The already scattered formation came to an abrupt halt in the forward trend.

The next scene made Sun Chuanfang couldn't help laughing, as if a weasel had entered a flock of chickens, the attacking bandits turned around and ran, and someone directly lost the guy in his hand, in short, the speed of this escape was amazing. It's like there's a tiger chasing after you.

In fact, there are no tigers behind the bandits, but the ones who chase and kill the bandits are much more powerful than the tigers, extending the mortars that shoot. Chasing the bandit's ass spanked. But the bandits also like to gather together, and they also go together when they run. So every shell that fell took away a few bandits. All the way to the range of running out of mortars. The mortar is considered to have stopped firing.

Looking at the battlefield at this time, it is really unbelievable. Within the line of sight, the corpses of fallen bandits can be seen everywhere, broken hands and feet can be seen everywhere, and some bandits are still crawling back after being injured but not dead. Screams like "help me" came and went.

When Sun Chuanfang saw this scene, he completely believed what some officers said when he was in the Ru River, and launched an attack in a dense formation, and the death was not ordinary tragic against the Wehrmacht with fierce firepower. The Beiyang Army is inferior to the Wehrmacht in terms of firepower, but the difference between the bandits and the strengthened Beiyang Army is only not small.

A battle without heavy weapons was too cruel for the bandits. Similarly, as a defensive side, you will feel the cruelty of war. Sun Chuanfang didn't have much joy at this moment, thinking of the words that Tong Nianhua often said to the soldiers: "There is nothing to say about the civil war, the Chinese fight the Chinese, and the injury can only be the vitality of the country." ”

Bai Lang didn't mean to be frustrated, this first wave of attacks was originally cannon fodder, and many people were still holding earthen guns, machetes and the like. It would be a joke to expect these people to make it into the city.

However, the officers and soldiers in the city still have artillery, which is too unexpected. The point is not to see the location of this artillery, and the probability of counting on the knockout of these guns is almost none. The operator of the four 37 cannons was originally a two-knife gun, and it would be very good to be able to fire the cannons. Bai Lang frowned when he thought about it, and after going back to discuss with a group of bandit leaders, he decided to attack in an all-out way and take people to flood Wuyang County.

Sun Chuanfang's mood was not relaxed for long, and soon the bandits' attacks began again, this time the attack was obviously different from the previous one, there were bandits rushing forward with ladders in all directions. In the open space facing the east gate, the attacking bandits looked very different. First of all, their clothing is a uniform blue-gray color, and secondly, the linear formation is also very organized, and it looks like they have been formally trained.

As soon as Sun Chuanfang saw this formation, he hurriedly transferred another company of troops to the city, and there was currently a company reserve in his hand, and the Makqin machine gun of the machine gun battalion had been hidden and not fired.

The bandits attacking in the second wave of the front were not running fast, and from the point of view of speed, they had been preserving their bodies, preparing for the final stage of the sprint, and the military quality was much higher than the previous wave. The bandits from other directions looked much more heroic, shouting and running forward, with all kinds of guys in their hands.

Tong Nianhua came quickly, found Sun Chuanfang and said loudly: "Xinyuan, the bandits want to use people to pile up, so that the machine gun battalion does not need to save shells, and can fire five hundred meters away." ”

Sun Chuanfang pointed to the blue-gray waves on the front and said in a deep voice: "This is the point." Tong Nianhua glanced at it, then took a breath and said: "No wonder Bai Lang can expand so quickly, it turns out that there are local troops from Henan joining it." ”

Sun Chuanfang said: "In this place in Henan, officers and soldiers are almost the same virtue as bandits. Coach Tong, this time it's a big trouble. ”

Tong Nianhua nodded and said, "Yes, no matter how big the trouble is, you can only carry it." Give the order to open fire, there are too many bandits, and I have to go back to the east gate. ”

Luohe, train station! A military train entered the station, and the soldiers in blue-gray uniforms kept jumping down on the car, these were the troops of the old Beiyang Second Division, and they urgently went south from Xuchang to reinforce. When the acting division commander Liu Bin got off the train, he subconsciously glanced at the west. Liu Bin was unaware of his steady strategy, leading the bitter battle of an infantry battalion in Wuyang.

At this time, Liu Bin was also a lawsuit, it didn't matter if Wang Zhanyuan ran away, more than half of the officers of the entire Second Division also ran away, and all the regiment commanders and above ran out, leaving only some battalion commanders and company commanders and some leftovers. An Yi urgently transferred some officers to Liu Bin, but he could only barely cope.

Calling several acting brigade commanders together, Liu Bin held a meeting on the platform, and the result of the discussion was to let the cavalry regiment set off immediately.

The other troops assembled as quickly as possible, and by the way, they waited for the first reinforced regiment to come from Xinyang. Rescue troops are like fighting fires, and before 2 p.m., the troops must set off.

The battle in Wuyang was at a fever pitch in a short period of time, with the bandits launching an all-out attack with crowd tactics regardless of casualties. This move really hit Sun Chuanfang's soft underbelly.

In order to defeat Wuyang in the shortest time, Bai Lang can be regarded as open-minded, carrying a war knife and supervising the battle with more than 100 bandits. Anyone who dared to run back directly took off the skull and hung it on the flagpole to show the public.

Faced with the tide of bandits flooding like a tide, Sun Chuanfang had no heart to preserve his strength. The machine gun battalion was in full swing, and when the mortars were the first to fire, the bandits were still about a thousand meters away from the city wall, and the bandits rushed to about 500 meters, and all the machine guns were fired, and the question of whether there was enough ammunition was not considered. As for the more than 10,000 bandits, if they rush to the city, a small gap can trigger a total collapse. Usually, I still think that Wuyang County is too small, but Sun Chuanfang thinks that it is too big, and less than 700 troops are all placed on the city wall, and there are still places that cannot be taken care of.

In the face of the powerful firepower of the officers and soldiers, the bandits suffered heavy casualties, and some of the bandits could not resist and retreated, Bai Lang, no matter who it was, took off his head at once, and cut off more than forty heads in a row, all of which were hung on the flagpole, and the blood continued to drip down, soaking a large area of land under the flagpole.

For nearly two hours, the six mortars did not stop, constantly firing out shells to suppress the bandits' attacks. In particular, the frontal bandit soldiers were given special care.

At the east gate, Tong Nianhua has been running back and forth in the city, shouting loudly to cheer up his brothers. But there were too many bandits, regardless of casualties, rushing up, the grenades that were replenished at the critical moment played a role, and seeing the bandits climb up along dozens of ladders, the grenades that rained down fell and blew up a person on his back, killing and wounding a person.

The tenacity of the bandits exceeded Sun Chuanfang and Tong Nianhua's expectations, and the fierceness of the battle was even more beyond imagination. Several instructors played an important role in the battle, and no one flinched at the critical moment, and all of them were at the front.

Bai Lang pressed the formation behind, and when the battle was at its fiercest, some of the bandits even climbed the city wall, but at this critical moment, an instructor commanded the soldiers and threw them down with a cluster grenade, and this guy blew up not lightly. Sun Chuanfang carried a war knife and personally cut down a few bandits, and the gap that was finally opened was blocked.

Bai Lang, who had been watching the situation, saw that the bandits who had climbed to the top of the city were defeated, and he reluctantly ordered: "The morale is gone, let's withdraw." "The horn whistled, hearing this horn, the bandits were like hearing the most beautiful music, hula hula retreated, Sun Chuanfang ordered the mortar to chase and kill, but was told that the barrels were all red, and the Haqi Keith machine gun was the same, only one Makqin arranged at the east gate, still chasing the retreating bandits. rq！！！
