It's no wonder that Xu Liejun can't figure it out, Tang Qiuli's big hat is too vicious, obviously he is a righteous teacher who recovers his own territory, he is justified everywhere, it is reasonable, Tang Qiuli's mouth is so crooked, he has become a traitor, a national thief, a rebel who has eyebrows with the Japanese, and secretly communicates with the rebels, Xu Liejun feels that he is about to die of wrongdoing!

He also called on the people of the whole country to jointly crusade against himself, what made Xu Liejun most angry was that he also discussed with Chairman Jiang and made a decision to crusade against the rebels, what Xu Liejun was most afraid of was this hand, as a subordinate of Chairman Jiang, he was also a feudal official who came out step by step, and he knew that the old man was in politics, and the means of turning the clouds and rain were endless, wouldn't it be to see Tang Qiuli's fierce reaction, the old man really did this, and used himself as a substitute for the dead ghost, right?

However, it is impossible, Liao Huaizheng's Central Army is storming Guiyang, and the fighting is full of fireworks, and in more than four hours, the Central Army has already suffered seven or eight thousand casualties, and the casualties of the independent division troops will not be less.

But Tang Qiuli's words were conclusive, and the black and white words were clear, Xu Lie was confused, but there was one thing he knew, either Tang Qiuli was lying, or he was making a trick, both of which would kill him, so he had to find out, not ask for an explanation, it had nothing to do with the name, it was about the problem of eating the guy.

Letting the central government come forward, refute Tang Qiuli's telegram, and clarify the facts is the best touchstone, the old man's true intentions can be tried out immediately, but he knows that without the Liao Commander in front of him nodding and agreeing, he can't even send a word, Liao Huaizheng is even more annoyed than Xu Liejun, and the dignified Central Army has to be a god and a ghost, and he puts on the skin of the Guizhou security forces.

Now Tang Qiuli in the Ming telegram, characterize his troops as rebels, the traitor unit Liao Huaizheng has never fought with the Japanese, and he doesn't want to be a traitor, this bowl of rice is the director of the Second Division of the Military Command Department of the Military Commission, the food is quite fragrant, what kind of thing is a traitor? But this big hat just fell out of thin air and buckled firmly on his head.

According to his idea, the true identity of the troops was immediately revealed, even if he continued to attack Guiyang, he would fight with dignity, like now, what is going on? But Liao Huaizheng didn't dare, if he really did this, he didn't need Tang Qiuli to crusade, he would be able to pick off his own skin in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and shake it out by himself, is there a good one?

However, he did not object to Xu Liejun's approach, but he resolutely opposed Xu Liejun's joint signature with himself, Liao Huaizheng looked very irritable, his face was gloomy, and he said impatiently: "Chairman Xu, I am only responsible for fighting the war, recovering Guiyang, and completing the orders issued by the Military Commission, as for other matters, it is up to you to deal with other matters." ”

Xu Liejun swallowed and foamed, so he had to send a telegram to Chairman Jiang himself, holding grievances and talking about hardships, and the main reason why Liao Huaizheng was in a bad mood was not Tang Qiuli's telegram, but the war that attacked Guiyang.

According to Liao Huaizheng's prediction, the strength of seven divisions was deployed at the same time, attacking Guiyang from all sides, relying on the Guiyang Independent Division's less than 40,000 people, and the defenders of the non-main force, launched an attack at 5 o'clock in the morning, and the artillery fire covered the entire offensive area, and the battle could be ended in four hours, and he could hand over this fearful errand.

The development of the war completely exceeded Liao Huaizheng's predictions, and the battle lasted for more than four hours, and by about 9 o'clock in the morning of 29 August, the attacking troops from all walks of life were still circling around outside the urban area, and their plan to attack the urban area was completely frustrated.

I remember that after receiving the report, I also proposed a commendation to the 135th Regiment, but I didn't expect that before the 135th Regiment could gain a firm foothold, it was violently counterattacked by the defenders of the Independent Division, and the fierce battle lasted for more than an hour, and the 135th Regiment dropped six or seven hundred corpses and was beaten back, Liao Huaizheng was very puzzled.

The 135th Regiment is the number one main regiment of the 28th Division, with more than 2,600 people, completely American-style equipment. In the case of an absolute disadvantage in troops, fight a counterattack?

He called the commander of the 135th Regiment to the headquarters and inquired in detail about the specific situation, and after listening, Liao Huaizheng was even more incredulous, according to what the regiment commander said, "The troops of the independent division that counterattacked our are less than two battalions, but they are equipped with automatic weapons, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, the individual soldiers are extremely high, and the tactical movements are skillful. ”

Looking at Commander Liao's look of disbelief, the regiment commander was anxious and said: "Commander Liao, if you don't believe it, I have captured more than a dozen wounded soldiers of the independent division's counterattack troops, and you can interrogate them face to face!" Liao Huaizheng waved his hand and ordered to bring it in, he was also very curious, are these soldiers Yu Han Mouyue Army?

More than a dozen stretchers, carrying the wounded soldiers of the independent division who were covered in blood, these captured wounded soldiers, who could no longer move, lying on the stretcher, panting with difficulty, Liao Huaizheng looked at the wounded soldier's injury, it seemed to be the lightest, leaned down, and asked kindly: "Don't be nervous, I am the commander of the campaign, I only ask you one word, which unit are you from?" ”

The wounded soldier raised his eyes and looked at him with difficulty, but he didn't pay attention, the commander of the 135th Regiment was anxious, and scolded: "They are all captured, and they are still so tough, what are the soldiers of the independent division?" Isn't it in our hands? Say it quickly, or I'll kill you! ”

The wounded soldier spoke, "You are also worthy of being promoted to an independent division!" You fight more and fight less, we are not the main force, you have fought for more than four hours, haven't you still not stepped into Guiyang half a step? A whole regiment, beaten by less than two of our battalions, lost its armor and was thrown out of the city, and it was embarrassing to blow! If our division commander is here, all of you will have to be prisoners! ”

The commander of the 135th Regiment was furious, his face turned purple, and he said to Liao Huaizheng: "Commander Liao, hand them over to me, I have a way to make them speak the truth, and when it's over, dig a pit and bury them alive to avenge my fallen brothers!" Liao Huaizheng waved his hand weakly and ordered the staff officer, "Carry these wounded soldiers down, let the military doctor take care of the wounded, and treat them according to our soldiers. ”

The head of the 135th Regiment, what else do you want to argue, Liao Huaizheng waved his hand silently and asked him to leave, just because of his move, after the battle of Guiyang came to an end, Tang Qiuli did not pursue Liao Huaizheng's sins, but let him return to Chongqing

As soon as the wounded soldiers of the independent division spoke, Liao Huaizheng understood everything, although the northern accent could not be determined to be from the northern province, but it was definitely not a soldier of the Guangdong army, who could follow Tang Qiuli to fight from the north to the south, it was the old base of the independent division, if these wounded soldiers were Yu Hanmou's old Cantonese army, Liao Huaizheng did not mind whether they lived or died.

However, after following Tang Qiuli for a few years, the weight is different, if he is shot, one is not martial, and the other is that he has an inseparable grudge with Tang Qiuli, where there is room for him, he will take care of his face in the future, who knows what will happen in the future? Besides, shooting prisoners, what kind of ability is it, killing and living on the battlefield is the duty of a soldier, at this point, Liao Huaizheng thinks that he is still a pure soldier.

At the same time, Liao Huaizheng also understood that the unbreakable thing that maintained the defense of Guiyang City was the old base troops of these independent divisions, the number was not large, but it was the most difficult hard bone to gnaw, he secretly sighed, "The Battle of Guiyang, I'm afraid it can't be as I want, as much as I want, so let's change to pressing step by step, gradually compressing Chen Han's defensive space, and preparing for a long-term battle!" ”

Chen Han put down the binoculars and fought for more than four hours, in the face of the attack of the Central Army, he felt unprecedented pressure, the casualties of the troops were close to more than 8,000 people, what worried him even more was that those soldiers of the old Guangdong Army, in the face of the fierce offensive of the Central Army, faintly appeared to be unstable, fortunately a few backbone regiments, played the role of the mainstay, let the Central Army suffer big losses, are these troops, but the casualties are not small.

The phone on the desk rang sharply, "What? The Central Army troops stopped attacking and were adjusting their deployment, did you see clearly? The caller was Huang Zhixiang, commander of the First Brigade of the Guiyang Garrison, who reported the latest situation, until about 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the Central Army troops had not launched a new attack, Chen Han ordered the troops, take this opportunity, strengthen the fortifications, take a breath, and withdraw those unstable troops to the core area of the city.

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the Central Army launched another attack, and the overwhelming artillery fire once again shrouded Guiyang City in flames and gunsmoke, Chen Han muttered, "Here we go again," "Report to the commander, the division commander is calling," and the communications staff officer hurriedly handed over a telegram.

It was sent by the division commander Tang Qiuli, "Chen Han, the reinforcements have been deployed, and they will launch an attack on the Central Army troops at 1:30 p.m., and your troops must be ready to counterattack," Chen Han felt a burst of collapse, thank God, it was finally here, otherwise, Guiyang would have spent a difficult afternoon.

The two-and-a-half-hour postponement of the attack was to allow enough time for the troops moving towards the two flanks of the Central Army, and Zhang Hansheng's troops were moving so concealedly that the troops had all set up artillery positions, and the Central Army was still not aware of it at all.

Liao Huaizheng, who was bent on storming Guiyang, would not have thought that a big net had already come down head-on, and what it brought to him and his 100,000 troops would be a devastating blow.
