The bloody battle in Beichen Mountain lasted for four days and four nights, and the corpses killed by soldiers on both sides were all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river. When the night was covering again, the soldiers on both sides retreated back to their positions, and the officers and soldiers stayed in the trenches honestly, silently licking their wounds, ready to fight.

In the early hours of the night, a force of several thousand people suddenly appeared outside the gate of Tong'anxi City under the cover of night. The walls were silent, and apparently the soldiers defending the city never dreamed that a force would suddenly appear here, so they were defenseless. A group of soldiers, under the cover of night, quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall, and then took out the ropes that had been prepared long ago and threw them onto the city wall, and the soldiers climbed the city wall in an orderly manner.

"Bang Bang!" A crisp gunfire shattered the silence of the night, and Wang Geng's heart suddenly sank, but as a senior general, Wang Geng's face always maintained the due calm. After about a minute, the gate of Tong'an City was slowly opened, and a smile appeared on Wang Geng's face.

Without Wang Geng's order, the moment the city gate opened, the soldiers rushed into Tong'an City with a shout. As soon as the troops entered the city, they immediately divided into three parts, one of which rushed directly along the main street towards the center of the city, and the other two parts attacked along the city wall on both sides.

After four days of bloody fighting, Tang Enbo was also exhausted, so he went to bed early today, but he didn't expect to be awakened by the fierce gunfire just after falling asleep. Tang Enbo drew his pistol and rushed out, and the division headquarters was in chaos at this time.

"Master! Oh no! The rebel army has entered the city! The adjutant shouted as he rushed to Town's side.

There was no need for the adjutant to report, Tang Enbo had already guessed what was happening, at this time, the gunshots in the city rang out, and it was obvious that there were no longer a few rebels entering the city, Tang Enbo's heart was cold, and he said secretly, "It's over!" Finished! The adjutant's shout woke Tang Enbo, who managed to regain a trace of composure, and immediately judged from the sound of gunfire that the rebel army had entered the city from the west gate, and it seemed that when he was fighting with the rebel army of Beichen Mountain, another rebel army suddenly detoured back to his rear, and then suddenly attacked Tong'an City. After judging the current situation, Tang Enbo decisively issued an order, "Immediately order the brothers in the city to desperately resist the rebel army, and those who dare to retreat will be shot on the spot!" Order the division headquarters to move immediately, go out of the city from the east gate and join the main force of the division! ”

After hearing this, the adjutant turned around and ran to give the order, and the gunfire was getting closer and closer to Tang Enbo's division headquarters, and Tang Enbo had to leave the guard company behind to resist, and he led the division headquarters to flee in a hurry towards the east gate.

At this time, there was chaos in Tong'an City, and the main force of the 89th Division had been transferred out of the city to attack Beichen Mountain, and there was only less than one regiment of defenders in the city. And even the defenders of this regiment were also scattered by Wang Geng's troops, and they were unable to organize an effective resistance at all. Seeing that Tang Enbo had already fled from the city, his regimental commander did not hesitate to abandon his troops and fled out of the city in a hurry with a few soldiers. The officers all ran away, and the soldiers had no intention of resisting and surrendered one after another.

In just one hour, Wang Geng occupied the entire Tong'an City. Wang Geng walked into the former 89th Division headquarters in a mess, and said with a sneer, "Tang Enbo, this kid is running very fast!" Ordered the troops to go out of the city to pursue, and it was necessary to defeat the 89th Division in one fell swoop. ”

Wang Geng gave an order, and only a small number of troops were left in Tong'an City to guard the prisoners and clear the remnants of the enemy. Most of them left the city directly from the north and east gates, and continued to pursue the remnants of the 89th Division who had fled.

Tang Enbo fled to the front command of Beichen Mountain in embarrassment, but at this time, Beichen Mountain was also in a piece. As soon as he saw Tang Enbo rushing to Wang Zhonglian, he hurriedly reported, "This gang of rebels actually launched a night attack, and after four whole days, we couldn't stay up, and they still had the energy to launch a night attack!" But fortunately, these guys are already at the end of their crossbows, and our army, except for a few positions lost at the beginning, has now stabilized the battlefield, and will soon counterattack and drive these rebels back. How's Tong'an? Wang Zhonglian naturally heard the sound of gunfire coming from the direction of Tong'an.

Tang Enbo sighed helplessly and said, "Damn! The rebel army suddenly rushed into the city from the west gate, and the brothers were caught off guard, I am afraid that now Tong'an has fallen into the hands of the rebel army! ”

"How's that okay?" Wang Zhonglian asked anxiously with a frown.

"Report! Oh no! A large number of rebel troops attacked from the direction of Tong'an, and the rear and flanks of our army were attacked by the rebel army, and the situation was critical and requested for support! A staff officer walked over and said loudly.

"So fast?" Tang Enbo glared at the beads and said, he really didn't expect that as soon as he walked on his front foot, the rebel army chased after him.

"Master! It seems that Tong'an has been lost! To be able to capture Tong'an in such a short period of time, eighty percent is the main force of the rebel army! Now that our army has fallen into the danger of being attacked from both sides of the opposing army, it is better to retreat quickly! Wang Zhonglian hurriedly persuaded.

Tang Enbo was silent for a while, and finally sighed helplessly and said, "Order the troops to retreat to the southeast!" ”

Wang Zhonglian nodded and said, "The division seat will withdraw first with the division headquarters, and I will lead the troops to break off!" ”

Tang Enbo shook Wang Zhonglian's shoulder and said, "Okay! Be careful! ”

Wang Zhonglian smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, this group of rebels can't help me!" ”

[***] has always been very poor in terms of the organization of retreat, and some officers even left their troops and fled for their lives after just giving an order to retreat. There are even more irresponsible ones who don't even give the order to retreat, and they just run away. This was a big loss many times during the Anti-Japanese War.

Although Wang Zhonglian took the initiative to stay and break the rear, but in the hurry of the troops, it was impossible to retreat in an orderly manner, and soon the retreat turned into a rout. Looking at the chaotic troops, Wang Zhonglian could only look up to the sky and sigh, helpless!

However, as soon as the 89th Division withdrew, the morale of the officers and men of Wang Geng's division was greatly boosted, and the attack became more violent, and the fierce attack of the 19th Route Army accelerated the rout of the 89th Division.

The 89th Division was routed for dozens of miles overnight, and Wang Geng commanded the troops to chase dozens of miles all the way. In the end, most of the 89th Division was annihilated, Tang Enbo and Wang Zhonglian only led less than 1,000 remnants of the defeated generals, and fled back to Xiamen under the response of the naval fleet.

After receiving the battle report from the front, Wang Geng finally showed a rare smile, "Report to Commander-in-Chief Jin and Commander-in-Chief Weng!" In the first battle of Tong'an, our 9th Division fought bloodily for four days and nights, and finally defeated the enemy's 89th Division, killing more than 4,000 enemy soldiers and capturing more than 5,000 enemies. Tang Enbo, the commander of the enemy's division, led the remnants of his troops to flee back to Xiamen in a hurry. ”

"Good! That's great! After Jin Zhao got Wang Geng's good news, he shouted excitedly.

But Jin Zhao's excitement did not last long, and a telegram sent by Xie Wanting personally poured on Jin Zhao's body like a basin of cold water.

Zhangzhou was lost, and Xie Dongshan, the director of the Zhangzhou camp, was killed! Zhou Dashan, the head of the special service group, only led more than 100 people to withdraw from Zhangzhou in a hurry!

Jin Zhao couldn't help frowning, and didn't care about greeting this future sister-in-law, just said coldly, "Got it!" He waved her hand to signal that she could go back.

"This Jiang Dingwen is not one of the five tiger generals of the principal, he is really powerful! I didn't expect to take Zhangzhou so quickly! Xie Jinyuan said with emotion. Zhangzhou is the headquarters of the original 19th Route Army, although only some directly subordinate troops of the 19th Route Army are guarding Zhangzhou, but these are all the elite of the 19th Route Army, and the Fourth Army once left a regiment to defend Zhangzhou. The total strength of the city of Zhangzhou was close to 5,000 people. However, Jiang Dingwen only used the strength of one division to capture Zhangzhou, which was high and thick-walled, in just a few days, which was indeed not easy.

Jin Zhao naturally knew what kind of characters Xie Jinyuan was talking about, and Lao Jiang's five tiger generals were ""Cadre" Chen Cheng, "Loyal General" Gu Zhutong, "Fu General" Liu Zhi, "Flying General" Jiang Dingwen, and "Tiger General" Wei Lihuang. Among these five people, Jin Zhao looked down on this Jiang Dingwen the most, thinking that he didn't have much ability at all, and he was just mixing up with his qualifications. But it was this guy who was indiscriminate, and this time he actually gave Jin Zhao a heavy blow.

Jin Zhao thought for a while and said, "Send a report to Chief Weng, suggesting that he integrate the main force of the Nineteenth Route Army as soon as possible and prepare to go south to recover Zhangzhou!" ”

Xie Jinyuan nodded, then got up and walked towards the confidential room. Looking at the back of Xie Jinyuan leaving, Jin Zhao smoked a cigarette and slowly lit it. Jin Zhao suddenly thought that although the land supply line of the Central Army had been cut off, the Central Army had a navy, and it could also be replenished from the sea, and now although Tang Enbo's division was defeated, Lao Jiang could use the navy to transport troops to Xiamen to land, if Zhangzhou was not lost, the 19th Route Army could still block the Central Army in Xiamen, but now that Zhangzhou has been lost, the Central Army on the southern front is equivalent to gaining a firm foothold on land, and it is not so easy to drive them into the sea. Therefore, it is imperative to deal with the navy of the Central Army, and in addition, to recover Zhangzhou as soon as possible.

Jin Zhao was bowing his head and thinking hard, when a beautiful figure suddenly appeared beside Jin Zhao. Jin Zhao, who was in deep thought, didn't realize that someone was approaching him, so he still lowered his head and thought about something. "Yo! What was our Commander-in-Chief Kim thinking? I'm afraid I'm thinking about which big girl again! ”

A sweet voice like a yellow warbler suddenly sounded, interrupting Jin Zhao's thoughts, Jin Zhao was not the slightest displeasure when he was interrupted, on the contrary, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he raised his head and said with a smile, "How can our beautiful and moving Doctor Liu have time to come to me!" Could it be that you miss me! ”

"Phew!" Liu Feifei couldn't help but snort, and just wanted to refute, but when he saw Jin Zhao's haggard face, he couldn't help but soften in his heart, and couldn't help swallowing back the words that came to his mouth, "I know that the battle ahead is tense, but you can't help but pay attention to rest!" ”

At this time, Jin Zhao had a scruffy beard, deep eye sockets, red eyes as if he had pink eye, and he was no longer handsome and chic. If you take off your official uniform and put on a tattered suit, you will be a fleeing refugee. (To be continued.) )
