Due to Liu Zhi's misjudgment, it was not until the Red 15th Army crossed Tianmu Mountain and approached the city of Hangzhou that Liu Zhi realized that the Red Army was really going to attack Hangzhou, and immediately panicked, and hurriedly gathered troops to the north to rescue, and asked the Military Commission for help, hoping that Nanjing would send troops to rescue the emergency, after all, the Qiantang River Bridge is still under construction, and it is not possible to transport Liu Zhi's 100,000 troops across the river by relying on the ferries that were urgently recruited, not to mention that it took several days for Liu Zhi's 100,000 troops to be assembled alone. Probably because he was afraid of being beaten last time, Liu Zhi was very cautious this time, and did not start to cross the river until the main force gathered, but in this way, the reinforcements of the national army in the north were miserable, and the result was that Liu Zhi's army had not all crossed the Qiantang River before he received a telegram that Hangzhou had been lost

Since the Nationalist army at this time had not yet mastered the more accurate radio reconnaissance and positioning jishu (historically it was provided by the Americans in the later stages of the Anti-Japanese War), Long Feibao and other special combat personnel could very safely telegraph the coordinates of the important military targets in Hangzhou that they had determined to the military commander one by one. At the same time, due to the absolute superiority of the Red 15th Army, it came too suddenly, and the defenders of Hangzhou did not have time to build fortifications outside the city, and did not dare to go out of the city to meet the attack, so they had to retreat in the city to defend it. However, in order to give full play to the power of the new tactics, Hu Weidong did not immediately order an attack, but waited until it was dark to let the artillery use the cover of night to advance to the various artillery positions that had been selected under the city, and immediately launched a fierce artillery bombardment on many military targets in the city that had already been located, and the 75mm field artillery had a range of more than eight kilometers

Under this sudden and fierce shelling, thousands of national officers and soldiers died in their sleep before they fully woke up, and the city of Hangzhou fell into unprecedented chaos, coupled with the fanning of the underground party and special combat personnel, the situation in the city was completely out of control, so that the remnants of the national army could not be organized at all, and at this time, the already dilapidated city wall of Hangzhou had already been converted into a 150mm heavy mortar of flat artillery. The Red 15th Army Special Service Regiment took the lead in storming the city under the personal leadership of Mao Zetan, the military political commissar

The strong military quality and special equipment of the special service regiment showed great power in the night street fighting, and the national army in the city did not have a clear advantage in numbers, and the equipment was even worse; when the organization was completely disrupted and everyone was generally in an unprecedented panic, the fighting spirit of the officers and men quickly collapsed, and they began to surrender to the Red Army in pieces and pieces. As a result, the Red 15th Army did not lose even a battalion, and took the big city of Hangzhou, and the process went so smoothly that even Hu Weidong, who planned this attack, was a little surprised

Indirect shelling tactics called "artillery blind jishu" by Hu Weidong (i.e., shelling targets that you can't see by yourself, not through visual artillery inspection, but based on data provided by artillery observers on the front line. In fact, it is not a particularly advanced tactic, not to mention the European and American powers, even the artillery of the Japanese army has mastered this ability, but the tactically backward national army generally knows nothing about it (in fact, because the opponent is the Red Army that has always had little culture in the impression, if it is fighting with the Japanese army, it may be guarded against in advance. Not only was the layout of the city defense very problematic, but there was no awareness of anti-artillery at night, so many people were lost at once, and then they were in a mess and were exploited by the Red Army. Otherwise, with the limited range and power of 75mm field artillery, it is difficult to achieve great results, and under normal circumstances, if this tactic wants to be used well in siege warfare with a poor field of vision, it is necessary to have an accurate map for reference, like Hu Weidong, who can command artillery to accurately hit targets in the city only by the coordinates reported by some observers, it is probably difficult to find the second one in the world, and it is no wonder that later all Shijie's military fans gave him a nickname - "Artillery God"...,

With regard to the match factories and other national industries in Hangzhou, Hu Weidong strictly ordered his subordinates not to harass and sabotage them, and even for some of the equipment and raw materials they needed, they would buy them from these manufacturers at a price not lower than the average market price. As for financial or quasi-financial institutions such as bank pawnshops, which purely make money from money, Hu Weidong's attitude is much tougher. The reason why he treats him so differently is that under the current situation of semi-colonial and semi-feudal old China (for a large country like China, only when the real economy is developed, finance, especially the privately controlled financial industry, can be regarded as the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. These institutions are definitely more harmful than good to the Chinese people, and it is not an exaggeration to call them vampires; Second, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols were the behind-the-scenes supporters of Lao Jiang (but later during the Anti-Japanese War, they were countered by the bureaucratic comprador Shili represented by the "Four Families", and most of the fixed assets were destroyed in the war. As a result, this alone confiscated gold, silver, foreign exchange and other hard currencies worth tens of millions of oceans, and if all items such as antiques and calligraphy and paintings could be realized, it would be even more astronomical.

Looking at this series of figures, and then thinking about the hundreds of millions of people who can't even eat enough, and China's national industry is also struggling, Hu Weidong is more and more resentful of these chaebols, you must know that the enterprises that invested one million oceans in this era are considered big factories in China, and these Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols have the wealth of the enemy country, but they basically use them to lend, buy land, and other undertakings that are not beneficial to the country and the people, and rely on sucking the blood and sweat of the Chinese people to raise themselves more and more fat. Not a single one has invested in the heavy industry that the country urgently needs now (there are still private heavy industry enterprises, but none of them have a financial background, but almost all of them have suffered the losses of financiers, and many of them have closed down and gone bankrupt as a result). ）。 The government does not support it, and the richest people in the country do not invest, and the heavy industry of the Republic of China can develop before it can be ghosted, and it is no wonder that the heavy industry production of the Republic of China in the so-called "golden decade" is shrinking day by day, so that it is not even as good as the Beiyang government period

In addition, after all, Hangzhou is a large city with a population of nearly 600,000, and its economy is enough to rank among the top ten in today's China
