The gunshots that Long Qian heard in Bai Wei came from Ye Yanbing's company, and Zhou Yi, the deputy commander of the Mengshan Army, was also in the position of a company, and it was Zhou Yi who fired the first shot just now.

Long Qian took four companies to reinforce Bai Wei, and didn't forget to report to the first company. Therefore, Zhou Yi and Ye Yanbing are aware of the changes in Bai Wei. When they found that Zhengjiazhuang's reinforcements appeared, Zhou Yi and Ye Yanbing immediately became nervous, watching the township soldiers enter their ambush circle, Zhou Yi thought for a while and fired.

Of course, they couldn't let the township brigade pounce on Bai Wei. The situation over there is unknown, and if you deal with the sudden arrival of reinforcements, you will have to suffer a big defeat.

A series of accurate and ferocious platoon gun shooting brought not only casualties to Zhengjiazhuang's reinforcements, but also shock. The weather was fine, and the villagers marching on the avenue were panting in the moonlight, and the company lying in ambush on the hillside could clearly see the enemy by the moonlight, but it was not easy for the villagers to spot the ambush. When the 1st team in front of the sudden encounter fierce platoon shooting, people around him kept falling to the ground and screaming, the township soldiers who were not as good as the Mengshan Army in training and actual combat began to lose control, Zheng Zhong in the 1st team began to shout, let the township soldiers lie down on the spot and fight back, which led to his exposure, and the sharpshooter team that was trying to find the commander immediately found this target, Zheng Zhong was shot, a bullet knocked out his left ear, although it was not fatal, but his face was full of blood, and he looked very terrifying.

At this time, Ye Yanbing shouted, "Surrender, surrender and avoid death!" ”

Across a mountain beam, Tian Shubang heard the sound of gunfire coming from the avenue! The procession on the path immediately stopped. It was difficult to rush over reinforcements, it was necessary to wade through a deep ditch and then climb over the mountain beam, such an action at night was obviously unrealistic, and besides, the thieves must be on the mountain beam. Tian Shubang thought for a few minutes and made the decision to move on.

He believes that this is the most correct decision at the moment. Obviously not thinking about retreating, waiting for the 2nd team to retreat from the fork in the road and then onto the main road, I am afraid that it will be too late, and there is a suspicion of escaping. And now the position is only four or five miles away from Bai Wei, and the brigade on the rescue avenue is the most powerful to attack from Bai Wei's side. Therefore, Tian Shubang not only did not withdraw, but ordered the gun to be loaded and speed up.

Turning a corner, Tian Shubang saw the fire that Bai Wei had ignited, and thought to himself that it was terrible, this means that the thieves have attacked Zhuangzi! Bai Wei couldn't set his house on fire by himself, right?

What to do? While hesitating, a gunshot rang out in front, and then it was reported that a thief had been found on the opposite side!

It was the fourth company led by Long Qian who collided head-on, and the reason why he did not take the big road and directly joined the battlefield of the first company but chose the small road was based on the fear that the township soldiers of Zhengjiazhuang would withdraw to Zhuangzi! The battle was fought in such a chaotic situation, Long Qian was not afraid that Zhengjiazhuang's reinforcements would come up, but that the enemy would shrink back! So he decided to take the small road to copy the enemy's back road, block the reinforcements that came out on the main road, and desperately suffer more casualties to annihilate them.

Bai Wei has already taken it, and the third company will soon be able to reinforce it, but Ye Yanbing's side is not the most important.

Villagers were spotted head-on, and both sides opened fire almost simultaneously, and the terrain was equally unfavorable for both sides. As soon as the two sides exchanged fire, Long Qian lay behind a stone, wondering where Lushan's Fifth Company went? How could this group of villagers who came from the path easily pass through Lushan's position without moving? Long Qian became anxious, stretched out his rifle to look for the target, the opposite group of villagers did not know how many troops they had but were well-trained, lying on the spot to resist, the four companies who were not familiar with the terrain could only shoot at the opponent, but could not charge.

The situation is complicated.

Lushan's fifth company was still in his latent position. Lu Shan watched Tian Shubang's team pass through his ambush position, did not shoot, but let it pass through his ambush circle. After discovering the enemy, he wanted to send someone to warn Bai Wei in the direction, but immediately dispelled this idea, because it was night, and he found that the enemy was in front of him, and the communication troops sent must follow the same road, in case they were discovered by the enemy, it would be more complicated - what if the enemy was frightened and retracted?

Lu Shan didn't know what had happened to Bai Wei in Lu Dao, and his task was to cover the bottom rather than intercept it, which was in line with the requirements of the plan. If his guns don't go off, the fifth company can't shoot.

But soon, the east side was blowing. The sound of gunshots did not dispel Lu Shan's worries, but made him more anxious. This burst of gunfire was obviously emitted by the group of villagers who had just passed, and they had no reason to shoot indiscriminately, they must have encountered a situation. Ji Luhua did not explain what to do in this situation, the enemy was obviously divided into troops to rescue, Lu Shan could clearly distinguish the difference between the gunfire on the side of the mountain beam and the gunfire in the east direction, this was not an enemy.

Lu Shan judged that it was the second company that was now receiving the fire, and he knew that the second company would complete the feint attack and withdraw in the plan of the road, but the plan was the main battlefield to join the main road. There's a fight going on over there, and the second company can't go over to participate in the war for what to turn to this side? How did they know that they had touched an enemy on the path?

What went wrong?

When studying operational planning, Long Qian emphasized the issue of the disparity in troop strength the most. The second is the unfamiliarity with the terrain and the lack of ammunition. The core of the plan is to annihilate the main force of Zhengjiazhuang by means of encirclement warfare and white-knuckle warfare, and the initiative will be grasped. The flaw of this plan is that the Mengshan Army, which is too weak in strength, is unable to fight in several battlefields at the same time! That's doomed! Long Qian pointed out this, but there was exactly the situation that Commander Long was most worried about in front of him, Bai Wei was in charge, there was a block on the avenue, and now there was a fight on the path!

After thinking only for a few seconds, Lu Shan made a decision, copy the back path of this group of enemies, and cooperate with the second company to destroy the enemy in front of him first!

Ning Shijun's staff team was divided into several companies, and when the battle started, they would be useless, and Ning Shijun agreed with Lu Shan's decision after a little hesitation. Long Qian's order is clear, the staff officers have the right to make suggestions, but the final decision rests with the company commander! Even he, the head of the staff group with a high status in the army, had no right to veto Lu Shan's decision.

Ning Shijun originally wanted Lu Shan to leave a group of people, even if it was a squad, it would be good to delay the enemy, but the reckless company commander of the fifth company followed them had already rushed up, and the deputy company commander and the leader of the platoon, Shi Dashou, rushed to the front, Ning Shijun saw it very clearly, thinking that this company formed by the captives was really unambiguous!

It's the right choice. It shows the decisiveness of the commander! Because the number of this enemy Lu Shan is clear, there are only more than 100 people, and with the front and rear volleys of the fifth and second companies, they are fully capable of eating it!

Tian Shubang is also in anxiety. The enemies on the opposite side are not numerous, but they are tough! This has been proven in the encounter just now, the marksmanship is good, the tactical movements are refined, and after a while, the 2nd team has already suffered several casualties! The team was completely pinned down on the mountain road and could not move, the opponent seemed to be extremely patient, they did not move, the opponent's gun did not go off, and as soon as they moved, they were greeted by extremely accurate shooting.

The captain of the 2nd team is a soldier, who was expelled from the Yizhou patrol battalion for violating military discipline and took refuge in Zhengjiazhuang, he touched it and found Tian Shubang, "Tian Jiaotou, this is not a way, why don't we rush over?" ”

"How do you rush in such a place? Isn't this sending the brethren to death? Tian Shubang's eyes rolled, "Let's go back and go down the road!" ”

The captain of the 2nd team has this intention, preserving strength is almost a common problem of all soldiers under the feudal system, and the soldiers under his command are exhausted, and no matter how high the honor is, they can't afford to enjoy it. So the order was passed on, and the rear team became the front team, and returned!

This time it collided head-on with the fifth company! Lu Shan's fifth company only shot two rows of guns and rushed into the ranks of the township soldiers, the tall Lu Shan rushed to the front, and the first company picked two township soldiers with bayonets, so shocked that the township soldiers turned around and ran back!

When the gunshots and shouts of killing sounded in the west, Long Qian understood that it must be Lu Shan who had copied the enemy's rear road, stood up and shouted, and led the four companies to pounce.

Tian Shubang's 2nd team was miserable, both sides were flanked, the team was immediately in chaos, some people jumped off the trench more than two people deep to escape, and some people climbed up the hillside, the will to resist was quickly crushed, and more people threw away their weapons and knelt on the spot as prisoners.

The battle was soon over. The 4th and 5th companies met on the mountain road.

Long Qian, who was panting, saw Lu Shan, "Quick, hand over this place to the national pillar, and quickly go and intercept the enemy on the main road__"

"Brothers of the Fifth Company, go back to the fork in the road!" Lu Shan shouted, gathered back the troops that had risen up and turned back.

"Guozhu," Long Qian called to Feng Guozhu, "don't worry about those who run away, immediately pack up the enemy's guns and bullets, leave a platoon to watch the prisoners, and the rest follow." After running two steps, Long Qian saw Shi Dashou leaning on a tree, "Dashou, is it you?" Injured? ”

"It's a stab, it doesn't matter." Shi Dashou covered his thighs with his hands.

Long Qian squatted down, took out the cloth strip prepared for bandages from his arms, quickly tied the wound for Shi Dashou, and then pointed to a soldier in the fourth company and said, "You, responsible for protecting Company Commander Shi." ”

"Commander, it doesn't matter to me, you can command it quickly." Shi Dashou Road.

"Good brother." Long Qian shook Shi Dashou's shoulder, turned around and ran west.
