Chapter 70: The Last Glory 80,000 vs. 600,000

The cold gun and cold artillery movement frightened many officers and soldiers of the Central Army, but Zhang Zhizhong was not afraid at all, and sat in the headquarters reading a book like a person who had nothing to do.

In this era, too many outstanding talents have emerged, although they are their predecessors, but if they don't work hard, there will still be a danger of being surpassed.

This time, he didn't want to accept Chiang Kai-shek's order, but other people used troops, and he was not at ease, you must know that Jiang Xianyun was a Huangpu twin star, a character comparable to Liu Yuan, how could it be a character who could be easily eliminated.

In order to maintain the authority that Chiang Kai-shek had established with great difficulty, Zhang Zhizhong finally agreed to send troops to Dabie Mountain under the persuasion of Chiang Kai-shek several times.

The number of troops under his command continued to increase, from the initial 300,000 to 500,000, and finally exceeded the 68 armies in total, and surrounded Dabie Mountain with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai.

If it was changed to Tang Shengzhi and his ilk, he would definitely not have the ability to lead so many troops, but it was more than enough to replace Zhang Zhizhong, and the various troops coordinated to a certain extent, especially the unruly Huangpu Army, which rarely disobeyed the command, which made Jiang Xianyun's cold gun and cold artillery campaign achieve good results, but the defense line of Dabie Mountain still kept retreating.

In this process, Zhang Zhizhong kept occupying the military fortifications that Jiang Xianyun had used, and some material concentrations that had not had time to be destroyed.

And Zhang Zhizhong also completely got the attention of Chiang Kai-shek in the process of this conquest of Jiang Xianyun, this is a person who can use soldiers, and he can be reused in the future.

"General, Admiral Liu Yuan has a telegram for you." The communications staff officer hurriedly walked into Zhang Zhizhong's office, and the name Liu Yuan made a group of staff officers frightened, they were people who had experienced Liu Yuan's Eastern Expedition, and naturally knew how terrifying Liu Yuan's use of troops was.

"What's the panic, Admiral Liu Yuan is in the United States, you are cowardly before you fight, if you are on the battlefield, I will already shoot you, Liu Yuan is powerful, he is also a human, and our opponent is Jiang Xianyun, what is there to be afraid of." Zhang Zhizhong taught his subordinates a lesson.

"Yes! Be! Then general, you still don't read the telegram. The communications staff officer said with a bitter face, the chief officer of his family is too strict, and everything else is fine. But for them, the staff officers, nothing else matters, as long as they win the battle.

"This still has to be seen, I have an intersection with Liu Fuguo, but I won't let go of Jiang Xianyun under him, I know that there may be Liu Yuan's stake among you people, but with me, you have no role at all." After speaking, Zhang Zhizhong picked up the telegram.

"Instructor, Wushan is your student, throughout the ages, I have never heard of a teacher with so many troops to surround and annihilate his own students, and the student is still the best of your many disciples. Besides, you were the commander of the Tenth Army, and you are also related to our Tenth Army, so why should you stand out? If Fuguo, he will hate you for a lifetime, and if he dies, many of the brothers and sisters in Huangpu will hate you for a lifetime, then the good name you have accumulated since you came out of the mountain will be gone. Students advise you to think carefully. ”

"General, what does Admiral Liu Yuan's letter mean?" The staff officer asked, puzzled, "Why does he feel that there is no useful information in his letter?" ”

Zhang Zhizhong smiled bitterly, the national government has been committed to cultivating excellent staff officers, but compared to Liu Yuan's staff team, it is still much worse, "This is Liu Yuan's cleverness, the main inner day of this telegram is not in the content of the telegram, but in the telegram sender itself, Liu Yuan's letter is nothing more than to tell me that he has already known about this matter, and wants me to retreat from the difficulty, as for the content of the letter, it is just some content that attacks my heart, and I want to mess with my mind, it is not worth mentioning." ”

"But general, the teachers and students of Huangpu in our party have never had such a large-scale cannibalism, and I am afraid that it is really as Liu Yuan said, and there are countless people who hate you so far." The staff officer said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter, I only have the government in the Zhangzhi Center, and I have never been interested in the party, so it's a big deal to continue to go back to Huangpu to teach, although he Liu Yuan has energy, but he won't kill me in Huangpu, as for Jiang Xianyun, I will hand him over to the principal, and the principal will deal with it personally." Zhang Zhizhong looked at the map, and the troops were basically in place, and it was time for a general offensive.

Dabie Mountain, in the eighteenth year of the Republic of China, the weather was sunny, and on the battlefield, cold guns and cold artillery still continued, but the Central Army had begun to gather and prepare for the most general attack.

Rows and rows of artillery were already in place in artillery positions, boxes of shells were ready. The commander, wearing a steel helmet, bent over and returned to the front.

Each soldier had received two base numbers of ammunition, and the logistics office had prepared a lunch ready to give the soldiers a full meal before they set out for battle.

Above the sky, the reconnaissance plane of the Nationalist Government spread its wings at high altitude, drawing beautiful arcs one after another, and sending the latest information to Zhang Zhizhong.

The artillery reconnaissance balloons also began to rise into the air, and the surveyor, with a telescope in hand, would calculate the parameters over and over again.

The chariots of the chariot regiment rumbled like ancient beasts, and they had opened their fangs.

At this moment, more than 600,000 troops were ready to go.

"The breakout begins." With Jiang Xianyun's order, the 80,000 army began to shout to the sky, and countless figures in the jungle shook, no one knew about Saidek in the Ludao Forest? The fate of Balai after he came out of the jungle, but when their leaders went crazy, their warriors, willing to follow to their deaths, were enough.

"Rush!" The overwhelming soldiers let out an earth-shattering roar, and in an instant, the momentum of the Central Army decreased a lot.

"Detonate! Initiation! The front-line commanders and fighters gave a loud order, and one by one, the blasters moved out of the manipulator and pulled the lever from nowhere.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The artillery positions of the Central Army were directly blown into the sky, and at least one artillery regiment was completely lost, and as for the shells, all of them exploded, and the successive explosions formed mushroom clouds, which formed a gap in the positions of the Central Army.

"Brothers, I'm Pan Xingguang, follow me!" Pan Xingguang held the Czech style, like a tiger, and advanced frantically, and one of his brigades as a commando began a frantic advance on the frontline positions of the Central Army.

"General, it's not good, our artillery positions were destroyed, and the front line almost collapsed. Huang Jie, the commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 2nd Division, retreated without a fight, our flank is very dangerous, general, are we leaving here temporarily. The chief of staff walked into Zhang Zhizhong's headquarters with a disgraced face.

Zhang Zhizhong was staring at the map in a daze, and when he saw the nervous appearance of the chief of staff, he patted him on the shoulder, "I already know the matter, but don't panic at this time, they won't come to us, what they have to do now is to break through, if they come to us, they won't be able to rush out." ”

"But general, we lost an artillery regiment, how can we explain to the commission afterwards." The artillery commander looked at Zhang Zhizhong with a sad face, after this battle, he was nothing.

"Hmph, this can only be blamed for your poor learning, the opponent can guess your artillery position, if this is a national war, I will be a sinner of the country with you, without artillery, you can take a gun and be an infantryman, don't get out." Zhang Zhizhong shouted loudly.

"What? What? You're saying it again. The communications staff officer stood up and shouted loudly, "Report to the general, the second division has been crushed, and the division commander Fan Hanjie has rushed forward with his reserve low, temporarily blocking the opening." ”

"So soon, Jiang Xianyun is really a tiger general, it seems that I have the obligation to plead with the principal for him." Zhang Zhizhong muttered, but did not give an order.

"Suddenly! Suddenly!" The sound of the submachine gun suddenly remembered near Zhang Zhizhong's command post, and the commander of the guard battalion walked in covered in blood, "Report to the commander-in-chief, the enemy's special operations team has carried out a decapitation operation on our side, and I suggest that you retreat immediately." After saying that, he fell to the ground motionless.

Zhang Zhizhong's eyes flashed with golden light, and he praised, "Okay, at this time, Jiang Xianyun has not been in a mess, it seems that he is really a rare talent in the country, pass on my order, and the command will be temporarily moved to the Seventh Division." After speaking, under the cover of the guard battalion, he slowly retreated.

Jiang Xianyun sat in the Chinese army, broke through with the team, and at the same time obtained the latest information at any time through the radio.

"General, our special operations team launched a decapitation operation against the enemy's headquarters just now, and has forced Zhang Zhizhong to retreat." The correspondent said.

"Hey, it must not be a special operations team trained by Liu Yuan himself, the combat effectiveness is still much worse, let them come back." Jiang Xianyun sighed and continued to follow the troops to break through.

At this time, Xiao Xiucai suddenly found Jiang Xianyun and said, "Wushan, you can't continue to move forward." ”

"Why, my chief of staff, I don't want to break through, it's not your style." Jiang Xianyun asked puzzled.

"It's not that what it means, but we fought too smoothly, I thought it was Zhang Zhizhong who deliberately let us move forward, as long as we got out of the Dabie Mountain Range, he would complete the encirclement of us, and then we would not be able to run even if we had the power of heaven." Xiao Xiucai took the map and said, "There are two high ground in front, which happen to be an excellent blocking location, you see that as long as there is a division of troops here to resist, it will take us at least an hour to get through, don't forget that Zhang Zhizhong also has an artillery regiment in his hand." Xiao Xiucai has already lost his long hair, short hair, and the pistol at his waist, which naturally has a bit of a sassy and heroic taste.

Jiang Xianyun suddenly realized, "The instructor is so cunning, I didn't even see it in Huangpu back then, but since I saw through his plan, don't be afraid, pass my order, take the middle army as the lead, the vanguard force and the follow-up force as the back, form an assault force, follow the direction of General Zhang Zhizhong's retreat, although we have few people, but I want him to integrate the troops once today, will I create the miracle of 80,000 vs. 600,000?" Thinking of this, Jiang Xianyun took the lead, and the bullets flew by his ears with a whizz, and he didn't feel anything.

Jiang Xianyun personally held the machine gun, frantically advanced, the chasing Zhang Zhizhong had nowhere to escape, just retreated to the Seventh Division, the position of the Seventh Division was broken down by Jiang Xianyun, at the same time Jiang Xianyun also captured a large number of mortars, the cavalry jumped directly from the horse, let the horse carry the mortar, as long as there is resistance, take down the mortar, marksman, a few shelling, can eliminate the opponent's new firepower.

Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek's mansion, Chiang Kai-shek threw everything that could be dropped, "600,000 against 80,000, and was chased by the other party like a duck, when did Zhang Zhizhong become so conceited, immediately upload my order, if Zhang Zhizhong loses, he won't have to see me, just commit suicide." ”

"Darling, don't worry, I've seen Zhang Wenbai many times, he's not the kind of arrogant person, I think something must have gone wrong this time, or let the troops defending Nanjing go up too." There was a hint of anxiety in Song Meiling's eyes, could it be that this Jiang Xianyun was their nemesis.
