"Smack!"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

"Da! da! da......"

With the sound of a gunshot from the commander of the second battalion, twenty or thirty meters away, the enemy who rushed to the front fell in response. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Immediately afterward, as soon as the enemy's panicked thoughts were born and before they had a chance to come to their senses, the Red Army soldiers pulled the trigger one after another, and in an instant, bullets rained down, killing and wounding more than a dozen enemies at once.

The enemy also came to their senses, and they all lay down, found cover and returned fire.

It has to be said that although the enemy has only one company, the weapons are much better than those of the Red Army. Not to mention anything else, just talking about light machine guns, the second battalion has only one, but this company of the enemy has two. Fortunately, the second battalion was several times larger than the opponent, which was enough to make up for the shortcomings in this regard, and it was the ambush side, so it pressed the enemy and beat it from the beginning.

After the two sides exchanged fire for more than ten seconds, the Red Army's most classic and commonly used melee tactics were staged again: under the leadership of the second battalion commander, the Red Army officers and men followed him and threw the grenades in their hands at the enemy. Immediately, everyone fired a shot at the enemy. Then, in the explosion of the grenade, the Red Army officers and men put their spears on their backs, drew their broadswords, and accompanied by the second battalion commander shouting "Comrades, rush!", and suddenly, everyone shouted slogans such as "Kill!" and "Surrender the guns and don't kill!", and rushed to the enemy.

The individual soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion are indeed strong, and if they were placed in peacetime, any of them would have the confidence to single-handedly take on two or three ordinary people, but now, they are facing Red Army soldiers who are several times their size. Seeing the menacing slaughter, and feeling that there were Red Army soldiers everywhere, their morale immediately leaked. No one reminded them, they all immediately turned around and ran away. Their commander couldn't stop them if he wanted to, so in the end they had to go with the crowd and run away together.

The so-called defeat is like a mountain!

In this defeat, they not only lost the title of elite, but also carried on to the company that followed: the Red Army charged with great vigor, driving them like sheep to the hill occupied by the enemy. The enemy who followed this company was rushed by this group of panicked 'sheep' who only cared about fleeing for their lives, and finally, seeing that they were powerless to return to the sky, they did not even let go of their guns a few times, so they had to become one of these 'sheep' and run after them.

Fortunately, the terrain here is narrow and the number of people is small, otherwise, the enemy will inevitably snowball bigger and bigger, and eventually, it is likely to lead to a total collapse.

The second battalion commander's gunshot was like a stone falling into calm water, and a stone stirred up a thousand waves! The battlefield that had been quiet before suddenly exploded.

Although Liu Yongjiang did not know the specific situation, as a regiment commander with rich experience in commanding and fighting, he had already guessed in his heart. He immediately made a decision and immediately ordered the first battalion that had been ambushed a long time ago to go out and seize the hill opposite the Sharp Knife Battalion. Then, there is no need to charge, as long as the enemy is suppressed by fire between the hills that are only thirty or forty meters apart, so that they form a left and right flanking attack, so that the enemy will lose sight of one and the other, and finally collapse.

But the elite is the elite, how can it be so vulnerable? What's more, their battalion commander Ren Congqi was personally appointed by Lao Jiang, how could he only have this ability?

Suddenly hearing the first gunshot, Ren Congqi's heart jumped, and a question immediately appeared in his mind: Was the gun misfired, or was there really an ambush?

Immediately followed by the sound of gunshots, Ren Congqi's face turned cold when he heard it, and he knew that he had really been ambushed. But as the supreme commander of the battalion, he naturally did not dare to show the slightest panic, so as not to cause panic among his subordinates, so he had to force his composure.

When the explosion of the grenade and the shouts of killing sounded, he heard from the shouts of killing that there was definitely more than one company of men and horses ambushing his own company, and it was probably a battalion, so the problem was serious: it was possible to use one battalion to ambush one of his own companies, that is to say, it was impossible to ambush one of his own battalions less than one regiment.

But he didn't give up in his heart, so he immediately sent a company to answer it, and at the same time urged a company to come quickly. He sent a telegram to Wan Yaohuang again, asking him to come to support immediately, and put forward his previous plan of 'flowering in the center' again. In order to get Wan Yaohuang to come as soon as possible, he also deliberately concealed the truth, only saying that he had successfully attracted the main force of the Red Army and was resisting, but there were too many Red Army, and they couldn't hold out for long......

However, before the company he sent set out, he found gunfire on the opposite hill. Seeing that his feelings came true, Ren Congqi felt that the problem was serious, and if he couldn't do it, he really had to explain his battalion here.

But at this time, he still didn't want to give up the first company, because he still had the last trump card in his hand - the small steel cannon!

Whether it is an ordinary soldier of the Red Army or the National Army, although most of the shells are habitually transported by mules and horses, for small steel cannons, in order to prevent accidents due to bumps in transportation, they are mostly carried by manpower. That's why the scout thinks the shell box is an ammunition box and thinks that the barracks don't have guns. And the information of this mistake came to the top, and even Liu Yongjiang was pleasantly surprised and mistakenly thought that it was because Lao Jiang saw that the Red Army was short of weapons and ammunition, and the special messenger sent it, and he could definitely easily eat the other party - the Red Army has always believed that if the national army is not supported by artillery and other heavy weapons, it is a dish.

Of course, it has to be said that at this time, as long as the Red Army captures a prisoner and asks about it, it is guaranteed that they will immediately know that the enemy has artillery: the enemy's top barracks are composed of 500 people, divided into seven companies, including an artillery company, although the number of this artillery company is only 30 people, which is equivalent to a platoon, but they have six small steel cannons.

Now, seeing that the hill on the right was occupied by the Red Army, they kept shooting at this side, intending to drag the Sharp Knife Battalion. On the left, however, it was in a rout, and it was absolutely in the danger of being flanked by the Red Army on the left and right.

This seemingly inexplicable situation that he could only escape from this place was easily broken by Ren Congqi, although it was only temporary.

He immediately ordered the company that had been sent out to defend itself and receive the rout, and at the same time, ordered the artillery company to immediately open full fire on the pursuing enemy on the left—the second variable was created.

"Whew~!Whew~!Whew......"

The second battalion commander led people to chase and kill the enemy, and suddenly heard this unusually piercing sharp sound, he looked up in amazement, and then instinctively shouted, "Shelling! Lie down!", and quickly opened his bow left and right, knocking down the two soldiers beside him.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Although most of the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion were experienced soldiers, there were some new recruits - most of them were Red Army soldiers who participated in the revolution along the Long March. The blood of the rushing and killing was boiling, and suddenly heard this roar, some people did not come back to their senses for a while, although many people were knocked down by the soldiers around them, but the enemy's artillery attack came too suddenly, and casualties were inevitable.

After the explosion, the screams were particularly terrifying.

However, the biggest feature of the small steel cannon is two: easy to carry and rate of fire.

The second battalion commander was about to stand up with a cold face, and there was a sound of "咒~!咻~!" from a shell piercing the air in the sky.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

After the explosion, the commander of the second battalion knew that the enemy, with this kind of artillery bombardment, had successfully blocked our advantage of taking advantage of the victory in pursuit, and could only watch the enemy run farther and farther in the forest. After a few waves of enemy shells, it is no longer suitable for the pursuit to rush and rush, and at that time, it will be the beginning of the storm......

Just when the commander of the second battalion was thinking about how to fight the next battle, the third wave of enemy shelling came again.

The second battalion commander was a little numb and helpless to the enemy's shelling, but he greatly regretted the loss of the fighter plane: What a great opportunity! If he kept chasing after him, he was sure that he would be able to rush into the enemy camp in one breath and kill them fiercely. But now, alas~!

After the third wave of shelling, the enemy's shelling seemed to be gone - in fact, Ren Congqi felt that it was enough to stop the Red Army's pursuit of the second and third companies and successfully rescue these two companies, and it was better to save the remaining shells and prepare to face the next task of 'central flowering', which was the real hardship. So, he gave the order to stop the shelling.

The commander of the second battalion saw that the enemy was not shelling again, and when he got up to look, he saw that many soldiers had fallen, some were screaming, some were rolling on the ground, and one of the soldiers had their intestines blown out, and he was not dead, but he couldn't move, but the soldiers around him could only watch, but he smiled, opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood gushed out...... The angry second battalion commander's face turned blue, and he gritted his teeth and roared: "Zhang Qingshan, dog, Lao Tzu is going to chop you alive! Didn't you fucking say that the enemy didn't have artillery? This is the fucking information you provided?"

It is no wonder that the commander of the second battalion scolded his mother, and according to later statistics, five people were killed by enemy artillery fire (four of them were recruits, and the only veteran died to save people), and thirteen people were injured. And this, thanks to everyone being in the forest, otherwise, the casualties will not be more than that.

"Battalion commander, the enemy hasn't completely run out of sight, can we still chase after us?"

"Chase! Of course. Damn, if you don't clean up all these miscellaneous pieces, Lao Tzu will have to be suffocated to death by this evil breath in his heart. "Whether they can catch up or not, the task of the second battalion is to attack the enemy from their side.

Subsequently, the commander of the second battalion asked the medics to stay behind to rescue the wounded, and he led the soldiers to chase after the enemy at a rapid pace.

Ren Congqi was wrong, although he ordered the shelling to stop, but he did not order the artillery on the temporary position to be transferred immediately...... If Ren Congqi gave the 2nd Battalion of the 49th Regiment a surprise with six small steel cannons, then half a minute later, under the personal command of Regiment Commander Liu Yongjiang, the Red Army immediately gave him an even bigger surprise with colors.

And it was this big surprise that not only completely dispelled his last trace of courage and confidence to resist, but also made him immediately retreat desperately.

Just because, he never expected that the Red 49th Regiment not only had artillery, but also more than twice as many as him!
