Before the start of the Red Party's battle to encircle and annihilate the Ma Jiajun, a battle to cut off the Ma Jiajun's rear road and attack Heshui was the first to start.

Heshui, located in the easternmost part of Gansu Province, is named Heshui because it is located in Maling and Baima Shuikou. The north side of the city wall is surrounded by mountains, and the other three sides are surrounded by water, and the shape is similar to a gourd, so it has the nickname of "gourd city".

Heshui has been an important military town since ancient times, in addition to its own dangerous terrain, it is difficult to capture. Its north is westward, there is also an urn city built on the high ground, because it is located in the north of the gourd city, and the city wall is prominent, this urn city has a common name of image in the local area of Heshui, called "gourd handle", and it is also the highest place in the whole Heshui city.

For Heshui City Defense, the location of the gourd handle is very important. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng's righteous army attacked Heshui City four times, and only one succeeded. The only success was after the success of the surprise attack on the "gourd handle". The other three attacks were all in vain due to the stubborn resistance of the gourd handle.

It can be seen that this "gourd put" is important to the Heshui defense system. Before Wang Fan appeared, the Red Party had also thought of occupying Heshui and holding the throat of Gansu, but after several deductions, they gave up because of the equipment of the soldiers.

Although Ma Bufang is bold in using soldiers, he is also well aware of the importance of the back road. Although he was convinced that his army was devastated, and the Red Party had no spare strength to attack Heshui, he still had a heavy weapons battalion and a reinforced militia in Heshui.

As a heavy weapons battalion responsible for the defense of this place, it has a cavalry artillery company, a combat defense artillery company, a heavy machine gun company and a communications platoon. There are about 1,000 people and more than 1,100 horses, and the battalion commander is Ma Shengzhi.

The total strength of the reinforced militia is about 8 or 900 people, and the regiment is always Li Hongxuan. In this way, the strength of the two Ma armies stationed in Heshui was 1,900 people, and the heavy weapons battalion had many heavy weapons and sufficient ammunition reserves.

Heshui County.

"Regiment commander, regiment commander, no, a large number of enemy troops have been found outside, and there are several thousand!" A soldier from the heavy weapons battalion ran to Ma Shengzhi's house in a panic and said.

"What? Damn, brothers, follow me to the wall! ”

"Yes!"

After 2 minutes. Ma Shengzhi saw dozens of unseen armored vehicles slowly driving in the distance outside, although he didn't know what this thing was for, but he instinctively knew that they were not good.

"Communications Officer!"

"In!"

"Immediately send a telegram to Commander Ma, informing me that Heshui County has been attacked by an unknown army, suspected to be a Red Party force, and there are a large number of iron cars!"

"Yes!"

"Mahon!"

"Yes, Commander, you called me?"

"You immediately gather the people in the county town who can shoot guns, as the reserve of the whole army, whether they are dead or alive this time, and whether they can hold out until the reinforcements arrive, it depends on them!"

"Yes!"

Five minutes later, a telegram from Heshui was handed to Ma Bufang: "There is a huge disparity between the enemy and us, and the situation is urgent. Our battalion has cooperated with the county magistrate Xi Enyi to mobilize the residents in the city with the Li Hongxuan security regiment, make defensive preparations, and stand firm and wait for reinforcements. ”

"Bastard!" After Ma Bufang saw the contents of the telegram, he stretched out his leg and kicked over the table in front of him.

"Daddy!"

"We were fooled, the Red Party wanted to kill us!" Ma Bufang has been fighting horses for more than 20 years, and at this time, if he can't see the Red Party's plan, it is too substandard, and after thinking about it for more than ten seconds, Ma Bufang ordered: "Follow-up!" ”

"In!"

"Immediately go to the back to contact Ma Buluan, let him lead the remaining 10,000 cavalry, rush to the aid of Heshui County, and tell him that no matter what the cost, I must keep the retreat route safe. At the same time, after Ma Buluan left, immediately command the remaining division of the 129th Army, and do a good job of covering the retreat of the whole army! ”

"Yes!" Ma Jiyuan didn't talk nonsense, and immediately led the people to run back.

"Signal Soldiers!" Ma Bufang saw that after Ma Jiyuan left, he did not delay, and then ordered.

"In!"

"Send someone to inform the cavalry troops and infantry units that have already attacked, immediately collect their troops and retreat, and then march in the direction of Heshui, and at the same time send a telegram to Ma Buqing, saying that we have been tricked, and the enemy will annihilate us!"

"Yes, well, but Commander, do you still have notice from Ningxia Ma Hongkui and Ma Hongbin?"

"They? No need, let them attract us a little more Red Party troops! ”

"Yes!"

Just as Ma Bufang woke up and seized all the time to retreat, the Red Party's siege and annihilation of Qingma had begun.

Around the Meridian Ridge, near Gucheng Township, Ma Chengxian's department, which was guided by the Red Party bait cavalry, had just seen the Red Party cavalry turn a mountain and was about to make more efforts to catch up with the enemy, when he suddenly heard the sound of "rumbling~~" on the side of the mountain man, and then saw dozens of iron cars slowly driving out.

"Brigadier Commander, what's that? What shall we do? ”

", whatever it is! Brothers, kill it and tear it apart!! ”

"Yes!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Nearly 10,000 cavalry galloped in unison, causing a very terrifying momentum, just the horse's hooves fell to the ground, and there was a "buzzing" earthquake-like sound, which greatly comforted the somewhat restless soldiers in the Ma family's army, similar to "We are invincible!" "Invincible! "Tear the enemy apart!" The thought resounded in every soldier of the Ma Family Army.

It's a pity that this is no longer ancient times, they encountered a modern armored unit armed to the teeth, and as one tank gun after another fired on the opposite side, the drama of "a table full of cups" in the cavalry unit of the Ma Jiajun began to be staged.

At the same time, the 8th Brigade of the Ma Ying Cavalry, which was responsible for blocking the reinforcements of the Red Party infantry, was also panicked in the shouts and killings around it, and suddenly the Red Party troops that appeared from all directions trapped them firmly in the originally established blocking position, leaving them helpless and desperate to hold on and wait, expecting the reinforcements sent by the main force to arrive.

Tsing Ma Interim Command.

After waiting for a while, the news came that the two cavalry units that still had not been sent to block the Red Party reinforcements came, and Ma Bufang had a premonition that something was not good, and decided to retreat first and abandon them for the time being.

Fifteen minutes later, the assembled main force of Qingma, except for a part of the remaining to continue to feint the enemy's 'Xianzi' position, the rest of the army immediately turned to the direction of Heshui, at this time Ma Bufang's only hope is that the Heshui defenders are tenacious enough to hold on until Ma Buluan arrives.

In Heshui County, all the defenders of the Majia Army have completely abandoned their peripheral positions and retreated into the city, hoping to hold on to the county city wall and Wengcheng until reinforcements arrive. In particular, the urn city is not only condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also has a tendency to fight with the county seat. Qingma also specially arranged several mortars, battle defense guns and several heavy machine guns here to block the road for the enemy to attack the main county town, as a fortress to block the enemy.

If Wang Fan did not appear, relying only on the original equipment of the Red Party, he could only adopt the stupid method of concentrating his forces to attack Wengcheng first, and then concentrating his troops to attack the county seat, otherwise the troops attacking the county town would fall into the crossfire between the county town and Wengcheng, and the losses would be great.

Now, the rich Red Party, in line with the principle of cherishing the lives of soldiers, directly concentrated a large number of artillery, mortars and tank guns, indiscriminate bombardment, only half an hour later, the entire urn city turned into a piece of rubble, the main plane history in 1947, the Red Party once sent the main force, attacked the urn city that was not laid for a day and a night, and it disappeared (in history, the Ma Jiajun, who guarded Heshui, used the underground tunnel to transport troops to the outside of the city, and suddenly launched a counterattack from behind the attacking troops. Inflicted heavy losses on the Red Party's siege troops, but this trick could not be used under the attack position of the armored vehicles as the protagonists).

"Boom, boom, boom!"

"Ah~~"

"Be careful!"

"Poof~~"

As the artillery fire became more and more intensive, the losses of the Ma family army in the city became greater and greater. In just one hour, several platoon commanders of the heavy weapons battalion were killed or wounded, and the chief and deputy company commanders of the anti-aircraft artillery company were all hit by shells of the Red Party army.

"Boom!!"

As an artillery shell exploded near Ma Shengzhi, the commander of the heavy weapons battalion, Ma Shengzhi's left arm was blown off, and blood flowed for a while.

"Captain!"

"Damn, Lao Tzu is not dead (his left arm was blown off), why are you still stunned, quickly bandage Lao Tzu!" Ma Shengzhi fully showed his fierce side, although his painful brain was sweating, he still commanded his subordinates to block the enemy and refused to go to the front line.

"Yes, yes!" After the person next to him heard it. Immediately summoned bandage gold sore medicine and began to stop bleeding and bandage.

"Commander, your arm?" A Ma Jiajun asked at a loss for what to do with a piece of his arm that had been blown off.

"Take it for Lao Tzu, if Lao Tzu dies here, he should leave a whole corpse, if he breaks through or is rescued, he must not let the Red Party rob it, let them exhibit and invite merit!!"

"Yes!"

At this time, the attack and defense of Heshui County have entered the white heat, and the final countdown to the total destruction of the defenders has begun.

Ma Yingbu who was besieged in the position.

"Commander, you see that the other party has raised a white flag!" Said a Red Party soldier who participated in the attack.

"Great, brothers, go, go and take the captives!" Zhang Dakun, who has just been the head of the regiment for not too long, said.

"Yes!"

The surrender and discharge of hundreds of people and nearly 1,000 people made Zhang Dakun have to disperse his men and go to disarm. Zhang Dakun's regiment was responsible for attacking from the south, the number was relatively small, the strength was weak, and he was very excited to see the enemy disarm and surrender, coupled with the absolute superiority of his own troops, he actually sent a large number of soldiers to surrender, and most of the soldiers naturally pointed their guns down.

But what they didn't expect was that after seeing the Red Party soldiers walking in one by one, these green horse cavalry suddenly pulled out the sabers they carried with them and launched a counter-charge towards the PLA. And the two hundred ambush soldiers who were ambushed in the half-man-high weeds in the rear suddenly killed, and more than 200 Red Party soldiers fell to the ground at once, and those green horse soldiers who threw their guns on the ground and raised their hands to make a surrender gesture, immediately picked up their weapons and launched an attack on the area where Zhang Dakun's regiment was empty because of the surrender, 10 minutes later, before the other attacking troops reacted, the more than 1,000 green horses charged at any cost and by all means, and finally more than 300 people broke through the Red Party defense line that was not defended by enough people, and fled into the distance on horseback.

"! I'm going to kill him!! When Yu Wenhao, commander of the 6th New 17th Division, heard that more than 500 Red Party soldiers had been killed because of Zhang Dakun's negligence, he angrily took out his pistol and walked out.

However, although some unsatisfactory things happened in the local battlefield, the entire battle to encircle and annihilate Ma Jia's army was still carried out smoothly, and by 6 o'clock in the afternoon, except for the main force under the jurisdiction of Ma Bufang, who was still on the left and right branches, in a vain attempt to find the gap in the Red Party's encirclement and escape from Ascension. Other departments, such as Heshui County, Ma Bufang's troops to block several troops, and the troops left to feint to attack Xinzhuang and Xiwa, have all been eliminated or disarmed, Ma Bufang is like a crab in a pot, there is no other choice but to turn red and steam.
