Chapter 14 The Great Victory of Tingsi Bridge
In many cases, wars are contested not only about wisdom, but also about whose heart is more ruthless. Many people say that the reason why the Northern Expedition of the National Revolutionary Army was successful was because they were ruthless enough.
They fought the civil war as a national war, and in the past, the warlords fought in a melee, and there were few desperate words, the warlords couldn't fight, they went directly to the field, and the soldiers couldn't beat and changed their clothes, and they still lived like this.
But this set will not work in front of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the shells of the Northern Expeditionary Army are definitely the most ruthless, and the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army are definitely the fiercest.
In the transition between the national war and the civil war, many warlords have become prisoners before they have been converted, but this person does not include Chen Jiamo.
Chen Jiamo is definitely a ruthless person, facing the troops on the opposite side, rushing into his position again and again, and it takes a lot of effort to drive him away, and he feels a lot of pressure for a while.
But Chen Jiamo is not a straw bag, he looked at the soldiers on the opposite side stepping on the cannon point, and the people killed were all on his side, and his eyes rolled to his heart.
This time, Liu Yuan was ready to let the brothers of the third division rush once, Zhang Fakui couldn't stand it, "Division Commander Liu Yuan, your third division has already rushed three times, see that this loss is not small, let our Fourth Army also rush a few times, or when the time comes, you Commander He, you have to complain about us again." Liu Yuan nodded, the loss of the third division this time is indeed not small, the terrain of Tingsi Bridge is dangerous, there is really no possibility of tricks, you can only be hard, so it is a good thing that someone is willing to go.
Although Zhang Fakui can't let his soldiers do infantry artillery coordination, but it's still okay to let the artillery bombard indiscriminately, the Northern Expedition, the four armies have never used the treasure of artillery, it is really scarce ammunition, use a little less, so never willing to use it, today hit Tingsi Bridge, encountered nails, Zhang Fakui also went with him.
The enemy's counterattack was weak, and Zhang Fakui's soldiers rushed to the local positions without encountering much resistance, and continued to go deeper.
As soon as Chen Shuming saw the opportunity, he immediately sent his soldiers to rush forward, Liu Yuan was wondering, why did the direct army suddenly become so weak, could it be that there was fraud in it? Liu Yuan felt that he called Zhang Fakui, "Division Commander Zhang, don't be impulsive, hurry up and let the soldiers come down, I feel that there is fraud in it." ”
Zhang Fakui smiled, "Master Liu Yuan, don't worry, take the Tingsi Bridge, and the credit will be your own share of the three divisions, after all, you have been rushing to kill just now, but seeing that we are about to succeed, you can't say this, right?" After saying that, he put down the phone and rushed to the front line.
Hurry up and gather the troops, Liu Yuan can't stay in the command headquarters, he feels that this is a conspiracy.
The two divisions of the Fourth Army occupied almost half of each other's positions, and at this time, the other side launched a counterattack, and gradually the soldiers of the Fourth Army actually rushed to the Tingsi Bridge and started hand-to-hand combat.
Liu Yuan took a deep breath, it seemed that he was really worried too much, at this time, the cannon rang out, and the shell fell directly between the hand-to-hand soldiers of the two armies.
The old pile of corpses and bones under the bridge, the blood stained the river red, and the river could not wash away the corpses for a while, a scene of purgatory on earth.
After only a while, Liu Yuan could feel with the naked eye that the Fourth Army had sacrificed at least 15,600 people, and after adding the previous more than 10 charges, the two divisions had lost almost more than one-third.
This time, Liu Yuan realized something from the sacrifice of his own people, and he didn't have to be ruthless to others in a war. Being ruthless to oneself is also a way to fight, hasn't Gu Zidi encountered this kind of encounter, Ci Bu is not in charge of the army, this is the way to say.
Liu Yuan shook his head and met Zhang Fakui with a bitter face, "Senior Commander Zhang, don't be too sad, the lost troops, the principal will still replenish you later." Liu Yuan comforted.
"I don't care about this, I'm sorry brothers, Senior Commander Liu, why didn't you hold me back at that time, let me make such a big mistake, how can I face the wives and children of these soldiers." Zhang Fakui is like a child, where he cried.
Liu Yuan looked at the soldiers of the Fourth Army, and was not disgusted by Zhang Fakui's command mistakes, but because of Zhang Fakui's tears, he was more excited and more excited.
Liu Yuan patted Zhang Fakui on the shoulder, "Senior Commander Zhang, mourning, why don't you go down and rest first, and leave the battle below to me." ”
Zhang Fakui seemed to have been waiting for this sentence, holding Liu Yuan's hands and saying, "Division Commander Liu, this victory or defeat will be handed over to you, Shu Ming and I are incompetent, and the two divisions of the Fourth Army will be temporarily under your command, and I, Zhang Fakui, will not say a word since then." ”
After finishing speaking, he returned to the headquarters, Liu Yuan originally wanted to refuse, but he knew that this was the best choice, Zhang Fakui had already rushed more than a dozen times, and there was no way at all, and he could only look at himself at this time.
But the Tingsi Bridge is too dangerous, no matter how many people there are, it is useless, and there are many elite soldiers on the opposite side, and it is almost impossible to defeat them from the front.
Since this is the case, Liu Yuan did not ask the soldiers to attack, he let the three divisions, divided into three waves, keep feints.
The so-called feint attack is not to say a few shots and a few shots, but to fight in a real way, but not to fight hard, to put pressure on them at any time, so that they can not rest, but also do not cause much loss to themselves.
Until the afternoon of the 27th, Liu Yuan estimated that the marching speed of the third division should be about the same, so he launched a thorough attack.
All the artillery was as crazy as not dying, the bullets hit the position like raindrops, and the soldiers of the three divisions rushed to the position together with the third division as the lead, direct hand-to-hand combat, bloody hand-to-hand combat.
Chen Jiamo wanted to use the previous method again, just a few shots, the artillery position was destroyed, and the soldiers could only be allowed to fight hand-to-hand with the Northern Expeditionary Army, real hand-to-hand combat, blood was flying, and human life was the most worthless thing at this time.
Because of the last sniping of Xie Wenbing, Liu Yuan was warned by the military committee, so he didn't dare to go to the front line, so he could only watch the soldiers fight the front line from a distance.
When the other party exchanged three or four lives for one of their own lives, the direct army realized that the Northern Expeditionary Army should have run out of skills.
But at this time, behind the direct army, there was a fierce gunfire, and the rapid approach to the direct army instantly caused huge pressure on the direct army, and the loss of the Tingsi Bridge was only in the evening.
Chen Jiamo saw that the situation was not good, and did not hesitate at all, and actually led more than 10,000 people to kill the troops who attacked them from behind, and the commanders of the two troops who attacked from behind obviously did not expect the counterattack of the direct army to be so fierce, and they were directly beaten back, and Chen Jiamo rushed to the retreat of the two troops and successfully withdrew from the Tingsi Bridge.
In this battle, the three divisions lost a total of more than 6,000 troops, annihilated 11,000 enemies, and captured more than 2,000 enemies.
