Chapter 238: The Jin Army's Amazing Will to Fight
Nov. 26, 7 a.m.
The 38th Division of the 18th Army of the 7th Group Army of the Tang Army, with more than 12,000 officers and men, under the leadership of the division commander Dai Xi, rapidly advanced to the eastern line of Qiucheng, and at about 9 o'clock in the morning of the same day, brazenly launched an attack on Yongning County, where the Jin Army was stationed!
The garrison of Yongning County is the 11th Infantry Wing of the 31st Brigade of the 98th Division of the Jin Army.
The wing has three infantry brigades, a cavalry squadron, and an artillery brigade, with a total strength of more than 4,500 troops.
"All of them, now I order, order all the departments to follow the original plan, first of all, to give me the outlying strongholds of the Jin army in Yongning County, all of them!"
Dai Xi, commander of the 38th Division of the Tang Army, said loudly: "Lao Tzu has a division of more than 12,000 people, and the strength is several times that of the enemy. ”
"Yes, Commander!"
At the sound of an order, all units of the 38th Division of the Tang Army immediately launched an operation.
The battle of Yongnian County marks the official start of the Battle of Qiucheng!
As soon as the battle began, the 38th Division of the Tang Army showed an unparalleled offensive posture, and its strong combat effectiveness broke out completely.
~~~
Yongning County Jin Army Sanhe stronghold.
At this moment, a battalion of the 38th Division of the Tang Army was attacking this stronghold with more than 200 Jin troops.
"Da Da Da!"
At the beginning of the battle, the light and heavy machine guns of all units of the Tang Army rang out in unison, bursting out countless torrents of bullets, and the charging Jin officers and soldiers were repulsed! No matter how tenacious the individual combat effectiveness of the Jin officers and soldiers is, under the endless torrent of bullets, they will also be blown up one after another!
Blood is flowing and dead bodies are everywhere!
"Brothers, push all the artillery to Lao Tzu to the front, and blast the Jin army stronghold for me!" A Tang army battalion commander burst out.
"Yes, Battalion Commander!"
Infantry guns, mortars, and even a handful of powerful field heavy artillery were moved out.
All the guns combined, there are 8 guns!
"Impossible~!"
Seeing this scene, the commander of the Jin army immediately had his eyes in his eyes, and roared: "How can a battalion of the Tang Army have so many artillery? Damn, retreat, everyone retreats to the stronghold at once! ”
"Yes!"
At this moment, where is the need for the Jin army commander to urge?
After seeing so many light and heavy machine guns and artillery, the more than 200 officers and men under his command understood that they could not win this battle, and they all quickly returned to their defensive positions with an order.
"Hold your stronghold and wait for reinforcements!"
The commander of the Jin army gritted his teeth, his heart full of unwillingness and disbelief.
"Humph!"
The battalion commander of the Tang Army snorted coldly, his eyes were like ice, "The Jin army is really as arrogant as ever, and it is even divided into peripheral strongholds, but I don't know that the weapons and equipment of our Tang Army have already changed more than one stubble in the past few years, and the intensity of the output firepower is far better than before!" ”
Rumble!!!
The artillery fire of the Tang army immediately opened full fire!
After a huge cannon fire, the impregnable Jin army stronghold, under the artillery fire, large pieces of masonry and stone were blown down in the blink of an eye. The huge fire generated by the artillery bombardment engulfed the Jin stronghold in an instant.
Rumble!!!
Outside the stronghold, those Jin officers and soldiers who had not had time to withdraw in were immediately torn apart under the boundless force of artillery fire, blood swept away, and wreckage was splashed everywhere!
Even the Jin officers and soldiers who were hiding in the stronghold were powerless in the face of the Tang army's surging artillery offensive at this moment, and they felt deep despair.
"Damn it!"
"How can there be so many artillery pieces in one battalion of the Tang Army?"
"Yes, we don't have such a strong firepower in a brigade!"
"In just a few years, the firepower of the Tang Army has become so strong!"
No matter how the Jin officers and soldiers resisted, but flesh and blood are flesh and blood after all, where can the enemy beat the ferocious artillery fire?
Just a few minutes later, the Jin stronghold collapsed with a loud bang, and the surrounding area was covered with rubble.
"Brothers, give it to me, and destroy them all!" The battalion commander of the Tang Army burst out.
Soon.
The Tang officers and soldiers who rushed up killed all the Jin troops in this stronghold in a moment's effort.
However, there was one thing that made the battalion commander of the Tang Army feel deeply shocked!
"Of the more than 250 Jin officers and soldiers in the Sanhe stronghold, none of them escaped, and all of them died in battle!"
At the same time, the strongholds of the Jin army on the periphery of Yongnian County were also broken by the Tang army, and the strongholds of the Jin army in Yongnian County were lost one after another!
The Jin army is losing and retreating!
The battle situation of the two armies is instantly clear!
Another phenomenon has also attracted the attention of countless Tang officers and soldiers.
"The officers and soldiers of the Jin, knowing that they are invincible, have no one escape?" Dai Xi, the commander of the 38th Division of the Tang Army, held the telegram in his hand, and his face couldn't help but change slightly.

The other side.
On the western front of Qiucheng, the New Ninth Brigade, which was deployed in the area of Mangdang Mountain, also received the battle report from Yongnian County for the first time.
Li Yunlong frowned and said: "There are 5 strongholds on the periphery of Yongnian County, a total of more than 1,100 Jin troops, and none of them escaped, all of them chose to fight to the death and not retreat, such a tenacious will to fight, I have only seen it in my life!" ”
Kong Jie agreed with a solemn face: "If the officers and soldiers of Jin are like this, then we can fight this battle!" ”
At this moment, all the people in the entire New Ninth Brigade Headquarters, whether it was Brigade Commander Ouyang, Rommel and others, all changed color slightly.
Although before the war, I had long heard how the Jin army could fight and how tenacious it was to fight, but after the fact really happened, everyone's hearts inevitably trembled.
Bang!!!
Rommel suddenly snapped up and stared at Ouyang tightly, "Brigade commander, if the officers and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty have such an amazing will to fight, even if our weaponry and firepower output are several times stronger than the Jin army, it will be difficult to resist the reinforcements of the various units of the Jin army!" ”
After a pause, he said: "Instead of fortifying at Mangdang Mountain and waiting for the Jin army to attack, I suggest taking the initiative to attack and annihilate the Jin army reinforcements outside Mangdang Mountain!" ”
"Good!"
Ouyang immediately said: "Rommel, I agree with your idea, now I order, you immediately lead all the officers and soldiers of the 512th Regiment out of Mangdang Mountain and launch an attack on the Jin army!" ”
"Yes, Brigadier General!"
Rommel, who received the order, immediately left the war room quickly.
Take the initiative?
If this was before the war, Ouyang would definitely not give such an order, after all, it was better to wait for the Jin army to attack, and with the advantage of terrain, wait for the Jin army reinforcements to attack?
But!
Now seeing more than 1,200 Jin officers and soldiers, none of them fled, and all of them chose to fight to the death and not retreat, which made Ouyang have to change his strategy and tactics!
Ouyang squinted his eyes and muttered: "It seems that this national war is far more difficult to fight than we imagined, and the foundation of the Great Jin Empire is still there!" ”
