Although an encounter broke out between the 33rd Regiment of the Central Committee of the Feng Army and the 25th Regiment of the Liangjiang Army of the Anhui Army, this encounter was not unexpected for both sides, on the contrary, it was already expected in the minds of the commanders of both sides.

Therefore, the engagement between the two sides was not as hasty and unprepared as the traditional encounter, but rather orderly, and the infantry on both sides was still relatively organized.

However, there is still a big difference in the details, the Feng army adopted the tactics of taking the initiative to attack under the command of Fang Qingkun, this is not that Fang Qingkun underestimated the enemy, but that the Feng army was used to fighting offensive battles in a series of southward operations, and the first reaction when encountering the enemy was not to defend on the spot, but to attack and attack. Counting the three main divisions of the Feng army, they are basically good at attacking. The 3rd Division is good at detours and large depth interspersed with attacks, the 10th Division is good at frontal breakthroughs, and the 9th Division, although it does not have the same obvious combat style as the 3rd and 10th Divisions, is also good at offensive operations.

It's just that under the command of Lin Yongquan, the Ninth Division's offensive method is more conservative and more traditional.

But there is no doubt that the 9th Division is also good at attacking.

This is true not only of the three main divisions and several other mixed brigades formed in the early stage of the Feng Army, but also the Seventh Mixed Brigade that is good at defensive operations among the main forces. As for the other troops, there is no such obvious combat style, not to mention those second-line troops, the other first divisions are also relatively decent, maintaining the combat effectiveness of the old Beiyang era, but it will not be said that they are obviously good at a certain aspect, as for the 14th Division, this division has not been formed for a long time, and it has not even fought a major war, and in nature the division is actually similar to the Seventh Division of the Liangjiang Army, they are all newly organized troops, and their weapons and equipment and training are not bad, and what they lack is only experience in big wars.

Generally speaking, the Feng army is good at attacking, and defensive operations are actually not much different from the old Beiyang troops.

And what about the Anhui army on the other side, in a certain way, the Anhui army is also good at attacking, you look at the fourth division and the second mixed brigade, these two troops are fighting from the south to the north, it can be said that they have not defended before fighting with the Feng army, and they have been attacking and attacking.

However, after half a year of fighting with the Feng army, the Anhui army under Duan Qirui has always been on the defensive and defending, and the offensive tactics that the Fourth Division is good at have not yet been brought into play, so they were driven all the way from Xuzhou to Jinling. It is light to say that he is depressed, and this time Duan Qirui has also made up his mind, he cannot use the fourth division and the second mixed brigade of the main force for passive defense, but as a mobile force, and when the time comes, he will try to destroy the Feng army's river-crossing troops by exerting his strong offensive ability.

Influenced by this kind of tactical thinking, the main training of the Liangjiang Army in the Anhui Army in recent months has been focused on defense.

At this time, the tactical choice of the 25th Regiment of the Seventh Division of the Liangjiang Army fully embodied this kind of thinking.

After encountering the Feng army, they did not choose to take the initiative to attack like Fang Qingkun on the opposite side, but started a battle to defend on the spot, trying to frustrate the spirit of the Feng army through guò defense, and then counterattacked.

The tactical thinking of the Feng army and the Anhui army is different, which leads to the fact that now the two sides have different choices after the battle!

When Fang Qingkun commanded the first and second battalions to attack, the commander of the Anhui army on the opposite side did the opposite, that is, to defend on the spot.

Two battalions against two battalions, although the infantry battalion of the Feng army was a little more in total than that of the Anhui army due to the integration of light machine guns and mortars, the 33rd Regiment had already experienced several hours of fighting, especially when crossing the river and forcibly landing on the beachhead, it suffered a lot of blows and lost about 200 people, so the number of these two battalions was less than the previous full strength.

In this way, the strength of the opposing Fengwan and Anhui armies is about the same, and it is evenly matched in terms of strength alone.

However, even so, Fang Qingkun still took the initiative to attack!

With the accurate bombardment of the 60-millimeter mortar, it was soon another mortar that accurately landed on a heavy machine gun position of the Anhui army on the opposite side, perhaps not completely destroying the heavy machine gun, but the fragments after the explosion still caused heavy casualties to the enemy's heavy machine gun, and after the shooter and the deputy shooter were injured together, the fire suddenly stopped.

And this obvious gap in fire was naturally captured by the commander of the Feng army on the front line, so soon a company of infantry launched an attack on the opposite Anhui army position with the sound of the copper whistle.

Incoherent, but still dense steps' gunshots echoed in his ears, Chen Sangou bent his waist, panting and running forward, his thick thighs in full armor burst out of his greatest strength in his life in the rapid running, and the previous high-intensity physical training allowed him to move forward quickly with the light machine gun in his hand and several magazines on his body.

"Light machine gun cover!" During the run, soon a lieutenant next to him screamed loudly, and the sound still accurately entered Chen Sangou's ears in the sound of gunfire, so he didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not, and soon he was a front bed, clamped the light machine gun on the ground, and then slightly visually checked the light machine gun in his hand, and then pulled the trigger in the direction of eleven o'clock in front.

The sound of clicking sounded, and the rapid short shot made the three machine gun bullets hit the position of the Anhui army on the opposite side, although it did not hit any enemy, but the little dust stirred up still made several Anhui soldiers on the opposite side quickly retract their heads.

This kind of rapid three-round burst fire is a common suppressive fire mode used by machine guns, and soldiers with a little experience on the opposite side can see that Fengjun's machine guns have taken care of them, and if they continue to shoot with rifle guns, it is estimated that the bullets will hit their heads in the next moment.

Although the distance was a little farther, Chen Sangou didn't care after seeing them shrink back, although he didn't hit any enemy, but he was able to force back more than the enemy, which from a tactical point of view, Chen Sangou had already completed the task.

Soon, the muzzle of his gun turned slightly, and he fired a short shot in the other direction.

When Chen Sangou used the light machine gun in his hand to cover fire, Chen Quan, who was from the same village as him, also ran forward desperately with the rifle gun in his arms.

One hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters, closer, closer!

Chen Quan can already clearly see the panicked faces of the young soldiers of the Anhui army opposite, those soldiers of the Anhui army look not very old, maybe about seventeen or eighteen years old, their slightly immature faces are in a hurry and panicked, at this time they are constantly pulling the bolt, and then pushing the bullet into the chamber, and then pulling the trigger, but the difference between the recruit and the veteran is that the veteran can still remain calm in this fierce battle, and then aim and shoot, but the recruit's words are just to shoot the bullet out, At most, it was just a slight aim, and it was naturally impossible to hit the enemy in this case.

Seeing the soldiers of the Anhui army on the opposite side behaving like this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Chen Quan's mouth, and he snorted coldly in his heart, these recruits, as long as they rush up and throw a round of hand-to-hand grenades, they don't even need to go up and fight with bayonets, it is estimated that they will be scared to pee their pants and hug their heads.

Eighty meters, fifty meters, at this time, the charging Feng soldiers were already in contact with the Anhui army on the opposite side.

It didn't take long for Chen Quan's immediate boss, a sergeant squad leader, to roar loudly: "Hand 'grenade ready!'" ”

Closer, forty meters, thirty meters, twenty-five meters!

At this time, the sergeant squad leader just shouted: "Throw!" "Immediately, he was the first to throw the grenade in his hand.

Chen Quan also followed, and threw out his hand grenade with all his might, and he could still clearly see that the hand grenade he threw drew an almost perfect curve during the run, and then fell into the enemy's position.

Bang, bang, with a piece of hand' grenade thrown over, a dense explosion sounded on the opposite position of the Anhui army, although the power of a single explosion of the hand' grenade is not large, but so many soldiers throw the hand' grenade together, but it is enough to form a dense explosion shock wave, a large number of hand' grenade fragments fly everywhere, most of them fall into the ground or mid-air, but there is still a part of the Anhui soldier rushed into the body, and then set off a rain of blood.

After Chen Quan saw his hand's grenade explode, it was obvious that he had overturned the two Anhui soldiers!

But at this time, Chen Quan didn't have time to taunt them, he was already clenching the rifle in his hand, and the bayonet in the front of the rifle was dazzling in the flames of the explosion, so at the same time, the shouts of his comrades came from the side one after another: "Kill!" ”

In the next moment, Chen Quan and his comrades rushed into the position of the Anhui army on the opposite side with a bayonet, in front of him was a soldier of the Anhui army who was only about seventeen years old, his young face was full of panic, and he saw Chen Quan on the opposite side screaming and killing like a killing god and rushing towards him, he wanted to shoot, but his hands were frozen, no matter how he pulled the trigger, he found that no bullets were fired, he forgot to pull the bolt and load the bullet!

But in just a few meters, he didn't react at all, because at this time, Chen Quan's bayonet had already arrived in front of him, and then he only saw the dazzling reflection on the bayonet, and then he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the next breath his whole body seemed to lose strength, and then it was soft to the ground.

After falling, his eyes were still open, and the corners of his mouth murmured as if he wanted to say something, but he could no longer speak, and he lay on the ground, only to see a stout, blue-gray figure walking past him, this is the man who killed him.

Chen Quan's expression was already full of hideousness at this time, and he shouted loudly and rushed towards another Anhui soldier, with a crisp bayonet stabbing forward, another Anhui soldier was stabbed by him, when he pulled out the bayonet, the blood of the major arteries gushed out like a spring, directly drenching Chen Quan more than a meter away.

Chen Quan, who was stained with blood, coupled with his hideous expression and lofty shout, was like a devil from hell, wantonly harvesting the lives of the enemy.

Chen Quan couldn't remember how many enemies he had killed, maybe four, maybe five, who cares.

However, when he pulled the bayonet out of another Anhui soldier, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and the next moment, as if all his strength had gone out of thin air, his stout body couldn't even turn around, so directly his legs were weak and he was half-kneeling on the ground, and then he fell sideways to the ground, and after he fell, he finally saw the enemy who gave him a fatal blow, it was a young, only sixteen or seventeen-year-old Anhui soldier, with a panicked face, Just like the first Anhui soldier he killed.
