Chapter 116: The Decisive Battle (7) Dilemma

Liu Anyue on the hill is not comfortable at the moment, and on the Daqingshan position, two battalions of troops have been smashed in, more than 1,500 people. The casualties of the troops were about five hundred, one-third of the casualties, and if it were not for Liu Zhenyue personally taking the command and implementing the most cruel military law, this position would have been lost long ago.

The ferocity of the Beiyang Army's attack far exceeded Liu Yueyue's expectations. When I first learned how difficult Li Yifeng was fighting on the Jinghan line, everyone in Jiaodong didn't care. When I faced the elite of Beiyang, I knew that the Jiaodong Self-Defense Army was always a grass platform team, and the background of the patrol battalion was not something that could be taken out. Judging from the casualties, the Beiyang Army seems to be a little less, especially during the second attack, the Beiyang Army once rushed to the position.

If it weren't for Liu Anyue resolutely leading a company of reserves Chapter 116 Decisive Battle (7) to the top, a grenade cut off the follow-up of the Beiyang Army, and the position would probably have to be lost. Liu Zhenyue, who insisted on the position, waited for four old-fashioned German-made 57 guns of artillery, as well as reinforcements from a battalion. Qi Zhenghong specially wrote a handwritten letter and asked the communication soldiers to bring it.

The letter said that the Beiyang Fourth Division, which went south, fought extremely fiercely, and this was the only reinforcement that Qi Zhenghong could deploy. I hope that Liu Zhenyue will persevere, what Qi Zhenghong means in the letter, these people who went to Shandong back then, if they lose the face of the chief instructor, they will not want to raise their heads and be people in the future. Qi Zhenghong finally said: "I don't ask you to live and die with the position, but I hope that in the future, when people mention the first phase of the teaching team, they can give a thumbs up and say: It is worthy of being taught by the commander himself." After reading this letter, Liu Zhenyue's young face showed a hint of fortitude. Silently put the letter in his jacket pocket, and turned back to his temporary headquarters.

The reality is that there is only one brigade plus a battalion and four 57 artillery pieces, but it has to resist the attack of an elite division of the Beiyang Army. Although there is a terrain advantage, this advantage is not obvious in battle.

Without waiting for Liu Zhiyue to adjust his mood, the rumbling cannon sounded again, and this time the momentum was greater than before. The sound isn't quite right, either. Liu Xuan Chapter 116 Decisive Battle (7) The predicament was more calm and said to the telecommunications director: "Telegraph to the commander-in-chief of Jinan Qi: Our casualties are about thirty percent, and we can still hold on." Even if I die in battle, I will not lose the face of the chief instructor. "Grab the helmet. Turn and rush out of the command.

As soon as he left the headquarters, a shell landed more than ten meters away, and the guards around Liu Anyue pressed him in time. When he got up, the guard had a single piece on his back, and he was spitting blood. The guard was only sixteen years old and was originally an orphan begging for food on the street. Last winter, it snowed heavily, and Liu Xuyue picked up the frozen child from the street. Give him food to eat and clothes to wear. The child refused to leave again, and stayed by Liu Xuanyue's side.

The guard's immature face struggled to put on a happy smile, and his eyes slowly closed. Liu Zhenyue's heart was sour, he raised his hand and touched a handful of snot and tears, stood up and rushed forward.

The cannonade had just stopped. The Beiyang Army had already rushed to about 300 meters, and Liu Zhenyue rushed to the side of the machine gun, holding a pistol and directing the machine gunner to suppress the shot. The machine-gun positions on the positions were undoubtedly the objects of the Beiyang Army's key concerns. Wu Peifu also organized some sharpshooters to specialize in machine gunners. Machine gun with a baffle. There was no doubt that the safety factor was much higher, and even so, two machine gunners were hit one after the other. Seeing that the Beiyang Army was about to rush to the position, Liu Zhenyue personally operated the machine gun and desperately strafed to suppress the follow-up of the Beiyang Army. The brigade commander is already operating machine guns. After a grenade, the regimental commander and battalion commander were the first to rush out of the trench and rushed down with a bayonet mounted on a rifle.

Seeing that the white-knuckle battle on the mountain had begun, Cao Kun was overjoyed, patted his thigh and said, "Okay, fight well, rush up." Kill them! Cao Kun is still very confident in fighting bayonets, the third division is taught with the help of the instructor of "Japan", and Cao Kun himself also attaches great importance to the training of fighting bayonet skills, it can be said that the third division's bayonet fighting technology is the best in Beiyang.

But soon Cao Kun couldn't laugh, and the green-skinned artillery, which had not appeared, actually opened fire at this time. The shells fell on the follow-up section of the Beiyang Army, and the follow-up troops who were about to rush up for reinforcements were caught off guard, and the people who were bombarded by intensive artillery fire turned on their backs. Cao Kun looked at the round eyeballs, and his heart was bleeding, just such a sudden shelling, at least a hundred people were lost. What's even more surprising is still to come, the result of the white-knuckle battle on the position actually doesn't have the upper hand at all, this is too shocking. The skill of the green skinned soldiers fighting bayonets is a little worse, but they are all desperate. There are constantly stabbed down soldiers, who use their last bit of strength to entangle their opponents to the death, giving their companions a chance to take down the enemy. It's just a scene like this once or twice, and it's terrible to keep appearing. After nearly an hour of rushing and fighting, the Beiyang Army on the position finally failed to stand up and began to retreat.

Wu Peifu was furious when he saw this, and was about to order a machine gun to strafe the soldiers who were retreating, but Cao Kun appeared in time, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said: "Ziyu, brothers have done their best, these greenskins are too evil." ”

Finally, another attack of the Beiyang Army was repulsed, this time the losses of the troops were smaller than the previous ones, and the key was that the four guns played a huge role and effectively blocked the follow-up of the Beiyang Army. However, this cannon was also retaliated by the artillery of the Beiyang Army, and one of them was lost.

What Qi Zhenghong didn't expect was that Chen Guangyuan of the Fourth Division actually worked hard. On the Xiaoqing River defense line, the Fourth Division launched a ferocious attack every half an hour, and after a morning of fierce fighting, the Fourth Division of the Beiyang Army occupied a bridgehead on the other side of the Xiaoqing River, desperately resisting the counterattack launched by the opponent.

Chen Guangyuan is indeed working hard, not to mention the pressure from Beijing, just in the face of Feng Guozhang, the benefactor, Chen Guangyuan is not allowed to work hard. Therefore, Duan Qirui sent Chen Guangyuan's Fourth Division south, which is very correct.

Qi Zhenghong asked Liu to extinguish the more he couldn't be ashamed, and he didn't dare to slack off. Seeing that the Beiyang Army of the Fourth Division had crossed the Xiaoqing River, he personally came to the front-line position, and said sarcastically to the brothers and sisters of several teaching teams: "You just show your face to the chief instructor? ”

Zhang Xiaheng, the temporary editor in charge of this defense, had a shameful face, and went out without saying a word. Ten minutes later, Xia Heng personally led the assault team to rush up, and rushed to the position on the bank of the Beiyang Army River, and the two sides fought with white knives.

Chen Guangyuan stood on a high place, and what happened in the telescope made him unbelievable. The bridgehead, which looked very strong, was suddenly lost, losing nearly a battalion of troops, and was driven back to the other side of the river.

Xia Heng was carried down, and he was almost stabbed in the heart with a bayonet, and even then it was fatal. Qi Zhenghong personally stepped forward to greet him, Xia Heng's eyes were closed, his teeth were clenched, and blood was still oozing out after his chest was bandaged. Qi Zhenghong sent his own guards to the church hospital in Jinan for rescue.

When there was a fierce battle in Jinan, Tai'an was also fighting fiercely. Zhang Zhenwu led his troops in pursuit, and Zhang Yongcheng was ordered to block the pursuing enemy in Tai'an with strong terrain. Zhang Zhenwu was still relatively cautious, and after encountering the Beiyang Fifth Division, he ordered the troops to gain a firm foothold first and wait for follow-up reinforcements. Relying on the Tianjin-Pudong line, the Pukou side promptly transferred the locomotive wagons to transport the third and fourth divisions of the National Defense Force. The Shandong battlefield presented a fierce battle between the two places, one was the Zhang Yongcheng blocking battle in Tai'an, and the other was the battle of Jinan being twice as pinched.

Zhang Xiaohuai did not stay in Xuzhou for long, and followed with the reinforcements drawn by the Fifth Division. When they arrived in Tai'an, Li Xiaochuan's troops were storming a mountain. In addition to Feng Guozhang, there were also troops of Zhang Xun and Jiang Guidi who retreated to Tai'an, but these two people did not have many soldiers left, adding up to less than 3,000, and the heavy equipment was also lost.

Even so, Feng Guozhang, who retreated to Tai'an, still handed over a small flank position to the two-man troops to defend. Several divisions of the Wehrmacht came up at once, and it was certainly not possible to hold out for long with a fifth division on defense. Zhang Xun is worthy of being a cunning man, and when he stayed in Tai'an, he hoarded some arms here. After retreating, he immediately grabbed Ding all over the street, and in less than two days, he had 5,000 people in his hands. It is said that it is a rabble, but how many warlords in this era are not rabble?

…………………………

Wuhan, Li Ziyun was a businessman at the beginning, because he followed the right person, he quickly became the biggest official in Hankou, and now he has become the mayor of Wuhan, except for those bigwigs in the United Autonomous Region, he is the biggest in Wuhan.

When he received a call from Fang Jianxiong's secretary asking him to go, Li Ziyun first pondered if there was anything that had been missed recently. Halfway through, I deliberately asked my secretary if there was any mess with my family recently, etc. After making sure that everything was fine, Li Ziyun was relieved, and it was not good that something happened.

Li Ziyun cherishes his current position, and after Fang Dashuai killed some officials in Wuhan, Mayor Li was quite shocked. In the future, although the officials are getting bigger and bigger, people are becoming more and more careful.

Fang Jianxiong was in his headquarters, and when Li Ziyun arrived, Sun Baoqi was also present.

"Mayor Li is here, sit down and talk." Sun Baoqi came forward to greet him, and Fang Jianxiong bowed slightly, even if the meaning was reached. After Li Ziyun greeted them one by one, he sat down carefully.

"Mayor Li was invited to come for the sake of supporting the army and his family in the local area. Wuhan is the seat of the autonomous regional government, so it has to play a leading role. Sun Baoqi explained with a smile, Li Ziyun got up and asked, "What does it mean to support the army and support the family?" ”

Fang Jianxiong took over and said: "It's very simple, first of all, to improve the social status of soldiers and emphasize the glory of joining the army. The second is that the social status of military dependents has been correspondingly improved, and local governments should take good care of the families of military personnel. It should be emphasized that when a person joins the army, the whole family is honored, and the government must ensure that the soldiers have no worries. ”

Sun Baoqi said: "The general meaning is this, specific things, you go back and count with the people below and come up with a charter." The autonomous regional government allocates a sum of money according to the actual situation, and the city government raises some funds on its own to handle things well. ”!!!
