The 75-mm infantry gun used by the Western Sichuan Army was developed in 2 years and produced in 6 years, named the Type 2 Infantry Gun, which equipped the troops and became the main fire support equipment at the battalion level of the Western Sichuan Army Corps. The 10th Brigade was a cavalry brigade, which could not easily carry large-caliber howitzers, so it was armed only with 75-mm infantry guns.

Type 2 infantry gun, caliber 75 mm, gun weight 025 tons, gun length 2 meters, total height 062 meters, high and low firing angles from -0 degrees to +75 degrees, range of fire range of 45 degrees to the left and right. The types of ammunition are 75 mm grenades, high-explosive shells, etc. The shell weighs 4 kg, the muzzle velocity of the shell is 0 meters per second, the maximum range is 25 kilometers, and the minimum range is 00 meters.

Because of its light weight and detachable transportation, four horses can transport a Type 2 infantry gun and several ammunition, so the Type 2 infantry gun has become the most effective fire support equipment at the cavalry brigade and regimental battalion level of the Western Sichuan Army.

Outside Yushu City, twenty-four Type 2 infantry guns were arranged in a row, and more than 300 shells were fired into the city within five minutes, which greatly shocked the Qingma Army in the city.

"Run! The Western Sichuan Army called. The artillery of the Western Sichuan Army is powerful! I can't resist it! "Those Green Horse Army, who were originally fighting the 11th Brigade, immediately blew up, and they ran to their respective barracks desperately, trying to get on their horses and leave this damn place.

"Retreat! Immediately retreat to Maqin! Gu Hongtao gritted his teeth and said. The eyes were about to win, but in the end they fell short. The arrival of the Western Sichuan Army has made them lose the chance to win the last victory. Now, the only way to retreat immediately is to take advantage of the opportunity when the western Sichuan army has just arrived, otherwise, I am afraid that I will have to lose my life here.

Gu Hongtao led the remnants of the Qingma Army to defeat the generals, and tried to retreat from the north gate of Yushu City, retreating to Maqin in the north, where there were ten battalions of the Qingma Army, which could rely on strong fortifications to resist the Western Sichuan Army and wait for reinforcements to arrive. It's just that what he doesn't know is that Yushu has been surrounded by the Western Sichuan Army at this moment. The artillery of the Western Sichuan Army opened fire only after the encirclement of Yushu, in order to completely annihilate the Qingma Army here.

The five cavalry battalions of the 10th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army have all been dispatched. The 1st Battalion defended the East Gate of Yushu, the 2nd Battalion defended the North Gate of Yushu, and the 3rd Battalion defended the West Gate of Yushu. The remaining 4th and 5th Battalions entered the city through the south gate occupied by the 11th Brigade, and cooperated with the 11th Brigade to clear the city of the remaining enemy. Under Zhao Bowen's order, the 10th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army immediately took action. Yushu is about to be controlled by the Western Sichuan Army, and the thousands of Qingma troops inside can only be captured or shot.

The arrival of the 10th Brigade has relieved the danger of the 11th Brigade, and if the 10th Brigade had been a little late, maybe they would have been driven out of Yushu City by the Qingma Army. Subsequently, Ma Qi handed over the troops to Bai Meng, Ding Zhongming and Zhang Mingyuan to command, and he and Ma Yuntao went out of the city to meet with Young Marshal Wang Yuze and Deputy Chief of Staff Cai Yun.

The two came to the outside of the city, just in time for Wang Yuze and Cai Yun, standing on the artillery position of the 10th Brigade. When they arrived at a row of twenty-four Type 2 infantry guns, both of them were a little shocked in their hearts. Just now, because of these cannons, the Green Horse Army collapsed immediately. Otherwise, their 11th Brigade would have suffered even greater casualties. However, when he thought of Wang Yuze's promise, he would immediately replenish these equipment for them after the war, which made Ma Qi and Ma Yuntao's hearts hot. The two have also been fighting against the Western Sichuan Army for many years, and they know the power of the artillery of the Western Sichuan Army, but this time they put themselves in their shoes, which deepened their impression.

"Young marshal, chief of staff, Ma Qi (Ma Yuntao) reports!" Ma Qi and Ma Yuntao gave a military salute to Wang Yuze and Cai Yun. Both of them looked a little wolf, and he had just gone to the battlefield, and although he was not injured, he was covered in dust.

"The two of you have worked hard, this time you can take Yushu City so smoothly, you are all heroes!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.

"The merits of your 11th Brigade will be recorded by the General Staff, and after the war, you will definitely be rewarded for your merits!" Cai Yun also said.

"Thank you to the young marshal and the chief of staff, this is what we should do!" Ma Qi said excitedly.

"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff. This time Bai Meng also made a great contribution, it was he and his subordinates who pretended to be defeated, and then they took the south gate of Yushu City lightly! Ma Yuntao said.

"Don't worry, his credit will be indispensable when the time comes!" Cai Yun said with a smile.

"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff. The Green Horse Army began to break through. However, they obviously don't have that opportunity anymore! Zhao Bowen, commander of the 10th Brigade, came to report.

Wang Yuze and Cai Yun both picked up the binoculars. I saw that the north gate of Yushu City was already full of gunsmoke. The sound of intense gunfire and explosions was constantly heard, and it was clear that the battle was very motivating.

The north gate of Yushu City has become the main direction of the Qingma Army to break through, and most of the three thousand remnants in Yushu City have broken through from here, and the other two directions and the Qingma Army in the city are very rare.

At the north gate of Yushu City, the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of the 10th Brigade were in charge of blocking the attack. Although the time was short, there was no time to build fortifications. But they all dismounted, put their rifles on their horses, and shot at the defeated troops of the Green Horse Army. At the same time, two Type 2 infantry guns of the battalion, two mortars of 60 mm caliber, have also opened fire. The fire teams of the companies and platoons below also opened fire one after another. The sound of artillery, the muffled roar of heavy machine gun fire, rang out in the air. The Qingma Army, which was rushing outside the city, fell one by one under the guns of the Western Sichuan Army as if they were cutting wheat.

"Battalion Commander Gu, the Western Sichuan Army has surrounded Yushu, and we can't rush out?" The deputy commander of the sixth battalion hurriedly reported to Gu Hongtao.

"If you can't rush out, you have to rush, if you stay, there is only a dead end!" Gu Hongtao stubbornly ordered.

Under his order, the soldiers of the Qingma Army mounted their war horses and launched a decisive attack on the position of the second battalion of the 10th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army outside the city. Although there is only a distance of two hundred meters from the north gate of Yushu City to the position of the Western Sichuan Army. However, this section of the road has become the road to death that leads to hell. One by one, the soldiers of the Green Horse Army were shot, fell from their horses, and were trampled into meat sauce by the cavalry behind. The short distance of 200 meters has become an insurmountable barrier for them.

As casualties increased, the morale of the Tsing Ma Army was also declining rapidly. Knowing that death is inevitable, naturally not many people are willing to die. Later, even if Gu Hongtao persecuted him repeatedly, they were unwilling to go up and die.

"Battalion Commander Gu, we have already failed, why don't we surrender?" Cen Zhiwen came to Gu Hongtao with a frightened face and said in horror. He had just seen the firepower of the Western Sichuan Army from a distance, and the Qingma Army that rushed out was shot by the light yì as if he was cutting wheat, which made him almost frightened.

"Bastard! It's because of something like you who is greedy for life and afraid of death that we will fail! Gu Hongtao was furious, and pulled out his saber like Cen Zhiwen to kill him.

"Ahh Cen Zhiwen shouted in horror, he didn't expect that at such a time, Gu Hongtao would kill him.

"Bang!" At this time, the gun went off. Cen Zhiwen's guards opened fire and accurately hit Gu Hongtao in the chest. Blood continued to seep out, Gu Hongtao pointed at Cen Zhiwen, speechless. Seconds later, he was on the ground.

"Damn it!" Cen Zhiwen immediately rushed forward, cut off Gu Hongtao's head with a knife, held it in his hand, and then shouted: "Gu Hongtao is dead, surrender, we surrender!" ”

Subsequently, the Qingma Army, which had already been frightened, put down their weapons one after another and attacked the Western Sichuan Army. After this battle, Yushu City was completely controlled by the Western Sichuan Army, and only the last more than 2,000 people of the five battalions of the Qingma Army guarding Yushu were captured, and the rest were all killed. These prisoners, after Ma Qi himself went out, also joined the 11th Brigade, which swelled the strength of the 11th Brigade to almost 5,000 men. Although it is not as good as other regular brigades of the Western Sichuan Army, it is not much closer.
