Chapter 33: Taking Guangxi and Conquering Nanning (Asking for Recommendation)

"Bastard, where did the Chinese People's Army come from, why haven't you heard of it before, if you want me to surrender, no way.' Li Zongren scolded and wanted to walk to the city wall. Then one of the staff officers took him by the hand and said, 'Overseer, there is danger up there, if you have any three long and two short, we will be leaderless.'

The staff officer's words calmed Li Zongren down, and his own life was the most important. He turned to the division commander beside him and said, 'You go and ask the other party where the army is?' Why did you come to offend me gx?'

'Yes.' The division commander ran up to the city wall and opened his mouth to shout, 'Where is your army, and why are you attacking us?'

Hearing the words coming from Nanning City, Kong Wenhong took the soldier's megaphone and said, "We are the troops of Huashi County, why we are here, you can ask Li Zongren if you want to know it."

Li Zongren, who was in the city, heard that the other party said that it was Huashi County, and his first thought was not to believe it, where did a Huashi County come from so many troops, and there were also heavy artillery, it was simply impossible. And he sent three divisions to Huashi County, how did they know, not to mention that even if they knew, how could they reflect so quickly, and now they rushed to Nanning. At this time, Li Zongren thought in his mind that the commander of the city defense division said that they all came by truck, and the previous intelligence said that there were many trucks in Huashi County, so Li Zongren slowly believed it.

Regardless of pulling his staff officers by his side, he ran directly to the city wall and shouted outside the city: 'You are Chen Shao's subordinates, what about Chen Shao?' I have something to say.'

'Our commander is not here, I am the highest commander here, Kong Wenhong, commander of the First Division of the Chinese People's Army, who are you and what can you say to me.'

'I'm Li Zongren, the overseer of GX Province, why did you come to attack my Nanning, do you want to rebel?'

The soldiers of the People's Army outside the city, when they heard the people on the city tower say that they were Li Zongren, many soldiers directly raised their rifles to Li Zongren's head, and their fingers slowly stretched out to the trigger. Just as Kong Wenhong was about to say something, a messenger came over with a telegram and handed it to Kong Wenhong. After reading the telegram, Kong Wenhong laughed and said: "Li Zongren, I just received a good news, I don't know if you are interested in knowing!" It has something to do with you, and after listening to the telegram, you will know why we are attacking Nanning' After speaking, without waiting for the other party to reply, he looked at the telegram and read it: "The officers and soldiers of the Third Division of the Chinese People's Army fought at Yangjiaopo at noon today, annihilating more than 20,000 invading bandits, of which three bandit division commanders have been killed by our army in the attack, and the bandit army has suffered more than 10,000 casualties in this battle, and more than 10,000 people have been captured by our army. Only about 50 officers and men of our 3rd Division were wounded, and none of them died. Republic of China...'

Hearing Kong Wenhong's words, Li Zongren sat on the ground all of a sudden, Li Zongren did not doubt Kong Wenhong's words, but what he didn't expect was that the three divisions that had just gone out in the morning were all wiped out in less than a few hours, and it seemed that the other party knew his movements, and it was ridiculous that he was still comfortable in the morning.

Hearing the words outside the city, the people on the city wall were in an uproar, they didn't expect that the three complete infantry divisions would be reimbursed like this, so how to defend Nanning City, thinking of this, they all looked at their commander Li Zongren, hoping that he would have an idea.

'Inspector Li, give you ten minutes to think about it, it's up to you to fight or surrender?' Kong Wenhong gave an ultimatum.

'Adjutant, immediately send a report to Bai Chongxi and ask him to send troops to help.' After Li Zongren finished speaking to the adjutant beside him, Li Zongren said to the soldiers around him: "Everyone, there are only more than 10,000 people on the other side, as long as we can hold on, our reinforcements will arrive soon, and then we will fight with me out of the city and completely destroy the other party." Where will Li Zongren surrender at this time, not to mention that he still has 10,000 or 20,000 city defense troops in his hands.

'Yes.'

"Okay, after guarding the city, I will set up a celebration banquet for everyone, so that everyone can drink enough.'" After saying that, he took the staff officer down the castle tower and went to the Overseer's Palace.

Kong Wenhong saw that the time had come, but the other party did not surrender, and nodded to Wang Yunshan, who shouted directly: "Heavy artillery brigade, open the cannon, and beat the city wall down for me."

As soon as the words fell, a piercing shrill cannonball screech sounded.

I saw a dazzling streamer dragging a long tail flame into the night sky, and whistling into the distance, just looking at this momentum, you can know that it is the field howitzer group is carrying out artillery fire.

"Good boys, field howitzer swarm! It's a big deal." A warrior was dumbfounded,

"Our People's Army is really broad! Fight a Nanning city and use the entire heavy artillery brigade."

"Command!" Kong Wenhong Huo Ran walked out of the command vehicle and shouted loudly to the outside of the car, "The special squadron will ambush as planned, the chariot regiment and the infantry regiment will immediately enter their respective attack positions, and as soon as the shelling is over, they will immediately launch an attack on Nanning City, and the chariot regiment will only start attacking after the city wall falls. Remember, there is no feint attack, no tentative attack, each regiment is the main attack, all are decisive attacks, and we must completely annihilate the enemy troops defending the city in one battle, and play the majesty of our Chinese People's Army! ”

"Yes!" The three regiment commanders and one chariot regiment commander suddenly stood up and agreed in unison.

The next moment, several regiment commanders under the command of the 1st Division turned around and left the division headquarters one after another, and in less than ten minutes, they each returned to their own units, and then entered the attack position with their troops under the cover of artillery fire.

Nanning City Governor's Mansion.

The chief of staff walked into the war room with a solemn expression and said to Li Zongren: "Governor, the opponent's firepower is too fierce, more than half of the dozen or so infantry companies invested by a regiment defending the city were killed, most of the rest were seriously injured, and all officers were below the regiment commander. All killed! ”

"What!" Li Zongren's facial muscles suddenly twitched violently.

Li Zongren knew that this battle would be extremely difficult, and he was ready to make heavy sacrifices, but he still didn't expect that this was just a round of artillery bombardment, and a regiment would have been basically wiped out! It was only at this time that Li Zongren finally understood why his three divisions had been wiped out so quickly, and fearless courage alone was no longer enough to win the war.

"Change to another regiment!" After a while, Li Zongren said again, "Tell the brothers, change your tactics, don't rush to the city wall, go up a platoon first, and when the other side attacks, the artillery will stop, and then go up to the city wall, tell the artillery battalion in Chengli, give me a return fire, and knock out the enemy's artillery."

"Yes. ,,' the chief of staff snapped to the ground and immediately took the order.

After a while, the sound of artillery also sounded in the city of Nanning, but it was much worse than the field howitzers of the People's Army, it was just more than two dozen 75mm field guns, and most of them were old goods.

Seeing that the opponent's artillery began to fire back, Wang Yunshan said: "Measure the position of the opponent's artillery and knock him out for me."

'Yes.'

After answering, a soldier began to fiddle with the optical rangefinder in front of him, and it didn't take long to get an accurate data. The measured data was handed over to the artillery position, and on the artillery position, dozens of 105mm field guns began to adjust the firing of Zhu Yuan.

Suddenly, there was an explosion in Nanning City, Li Zongren was about to go out to see what was going on, could it be that the other party had invaded Nanning so quickly? At this time, the chief of staff pushed open the door and walked in and said, 'Governor, it's not good, our artillery is finished, and the enemy is shelling our artillery positions.'

'What!!' Li Zongren suddenly sat down on the chair and didn't speak for a long time.

At this time, a dusty soldier ran in and said to Li Zongren, who was sitting in a chair, "Governor, the city wall has fallen, the enemy army has entered the city, and the enemy army has a kind of iron monster that can fire cannonballs, and now the brothers can no longer withstand it. Fleeing into the city.'

"Bastard, come out with me to see, I don't believe it, he's just covered in iron, I'm going to bite off a piece, I don't believe that my good guy in the Gui family can't even withstand a little bullshit People's Army.' Li Zongren stood up, took out his pistol and walked out. A few staff officers around couldn't and could only keep up.

'Sitting, it's not good, get out of here, the enemy army has entered the city, is pressing here, and is almost at the Overseer's Palace.'

Li Zongren, who had just walked out of the Overseer's Mansion, saw the commander of the city defense division from a distance, and ran over in a hurry. Listening to the gunfire of the battle in the distance, it is indeed very close to here. I didn't expect that in less than an hour, a huge Nanning City was about to be lost, and the other party was still the mud leg that he had been looking down on before, thinking of this, Li Zongren raised his gun and shot at the head of a staff officer next to him, that is, this staff officer was also enthusiastic in the morning to introduce himself to the situation in Huashi County, and his feelings were deceived, what number is not much, what is not combative, they are, if there is no combat effectiveness, then how can he lose so badly.

Li Zongren's actions startled the people around him, looking at his comrades who fell to the ground, the hole in his head was still bubbling with blood, and everyone was suddenly in danger.

At this time, the commander of the city defense division hurriedly said: "Governor, keep the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood, I'm here to block it, you guys go quickly.'"

Li Zongren looked at a few combat staff officers around him, as well as a dozen guards behind him, and said slowly: "I, Li Zongren, will come back, let's go." After saying that, he ran to another city gate with a few staff officers and a dozen guards.

When Li Zongren ran away with his people, the defenders of the city were all taken prisoner under the attack of the People's Army and powerful tanks. The whole battle took only two hours.

When he was an hour, Kong Wenhong and Wang Yunshan were already sitting in the Nanning Overseer's Mansion, looking at the messy Overseer's Mansion, Wang Yunshan said with some emotion: 'Now the GX Province is going to change its surname to Chen, and I don't know if the special squadron can complete the task, otherwise there will be endless trouble after the tiger returns to the mountain.'

No problem, there are only dozens of people around Li Zongren, and I have already asked a company to pick them up in a truck. I'm sure I'll be back soon.' Kong Wenhong looked confident. Because he knows how powerful the special forces are.

Li Zongren and his party ran out of Nanning City and ran in the direction of Guilin, and when they came to a forest, there was a burst of gunshots, and the group fell more than a dozen. Hearing the gunshot, Li Zongren immediately lay on the ground, and at this time, there was another burst of gunfire, and more than a dozen people fell in response, and in the blink of an eye, half of the team that had fled had fallen.

'Who, come out for me, what kind of good man is sneaking.' Li Zongren shouted, but people didn't dare to move. At this time, one of the guards beside him was about to turn over and get a gun, but another gunshot rang out, and the guard next to him was shot in the head and died of exhaustion.

At this time, a voice slowly came from the woods: 'Hold all the guns, stand up, and put your heads in your hands, or you will all die.'

Looking at the eyes around him staring at him, Li Zongren knew that their lives were in his own thoughts, looking at the dozens of people who died on the side of the road, Li Zongren could only helplessly raise his hands and surrender.
