Volume Two, Crossing the Sea, Chapter Fifteen, Eastern Expedition and Northern Expedition (3)
The commandos who launched the attack didn't look very heroic. They held their weapons and trotted forward in a dispersed formation. They were always careful about the bullets fired from the mountain. Those at the front were even more careful and were always ready to lie down.
Take cover.
Fang Jianxiong, who was behind, quickly lost sight of the situation at the front. The sound of gunfire continued, but his own Sanqi artillery and machine guns were suppressing it. It seemed that he could not hear the gunfire of resistance on the hilltop.
Feeling something was wrong, Fang Jianxiong left the command post directly, called Duan Feng and Qi Erzhu, and rode forward to the command post of the second division. The command post of the second division had moved forward so much that it was only three miles away from the first line of charge.
When Fang Jianxiong arrived, Jan Sen was holding the telescope in confusion, muttering: "It shouldn't be! It shouldn't be! Could it be that there was something wrong with the investigation? There are obviously more than 2,000 people defending on the mountain."
"Jian Sen, what happened?" Fang Jianxiong shouted urgently, and Jan Sen turned around and saluted: "Hello, sir!"
Fang Jianxiong didn't even return the courtesy, but directly took Janson's seat and picked up the binoculars to observe the situation on the top of the mountain.
The fog on the mountain was still thick at this time, and the sound of gunfire was much sparser than before. A red flag suddenly stood up on the mountain. Fang Jianxiong looked at his watch and saw that it was only fifty minutes before the attack was launched. The battle was won!
At this time, a call came in from the headquarters of the third brigade ahead. After answering the call, Jensen was overjoyed and shouted: "All the positions have been scooped out." Fang Jianxiong, who was still looking hard at the telescope, froze and felt victorious in his heart.
The excitement of joy flooded over me like a tide.
After a long pause, Fang Jianxiong put down the telescope, turned around and said with an expressionless face, "The battle has just begun. Quickly check the results and clean the battlefield. The frontline troops must be on guard to prevent the enemy from counterattacking. The second-line troops should follow as soon as possible."
Go ahead and don't give the enemy a chance to breathe."
The sound of the cannon was really too loud. Zhang Xun sat up from the bed and shouted: "What's going on? Where are the cannons going?". His beloved concubine Xiao Maozi got up naked and asked the maid to come in and serve him. He usually always
He wanted to take out a handful on his breasts. Zhang Xun jumped up immediately after he praised it, and the maid kept urging him to hurry up when he came in to help him put it on.
The half-hour preparation for the artillery fire seemed too abnormal to Zhang Xun. Moreover, the sound of the artillery fire was also unusual. Just after he finished dressing up, the soldiers outside came in in a panic and reported: "Commander, this is the direction of Yuhuatai, it should be the Anhui Army."
Called over."
Taking out his pocket watch, Zhang Xun looked at the time. When the sound of gunfire gradually became sparse, Zhang Xun murmured to himself: "I'm afraid there will be trouble this time!"
Then he said loudly: "Quick, inform the governor immediately. The patrol camp in the direction of Ziling Pass will dispatch half of the troops to Tianbao Castle. Notify Wang Youhong. You must guard Tianbao Castle for me."
In a hurry, after Zhang Xun gave the order, he rushed to the governor's office. Zhang Renjun and Tie Liang had already sat together and waited anxiously. When they saw Zhang Xun coming in, the two of them, like ants on a hot pot, asked at the same time: "How is it?"
Already?"
Zhang Xun despised these two people in his heart. He suppressed his uneasiness and pretended to be calm: "There is no report yet. The terrain of Yuhuatai is difficult and difficult, and it cannot be conquered in a short time."
Tie Liang said anxiously: "No, the sound of artillery is too fierce. We must immediately reinforce Yuhuatai." As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier from outside rolled in and shouted: "Sir, Yuhuatai has been captured!"
Yuhuatai is the commanding height in the south of the city. If this place is lost, the south of the city will be opened. When the three of them were shocked, Zhang Xun was the first to reply calmly: "If we visit again, order Hu Lingxuan to reinforce immediately and guard the west gate of Han Dynasty for me."
………………
"What? The secret service team directly penetrated the Xiaoling Guards? Leng Yu, that bastard!" When Fang Jianxiong got the news, he almost threw the teacup out of his anger. As the vanguard of his army, he didn't win the first battle. Leng Yu was so anxious.
It was on fire. I simply took matters into my own hands, found a local guide, and headed towards Xiaolingwei and Chaoyangmen at one o'clock in the morning.
Although he was very annoyed, Fang Jianxiong did not show it on his face. Leng Yu was his favorite general and could not dampen his enthusiasm. However, he could not let it go. The task given to Leng Yu in this battle was to cooperate with the Fourth Brigade to guard against the Qing Dynasty in the direction of Hanxi Gate.
The army did not ask him to attack the mountains.
"Come here, hurry up and catch up with Leng Yu, tell him, just say it's my order. If Xiaolingwei is scooped out, I'll let him wash the toilet for a month at most. If he can't scoop it out, I'll shoot him!"
When the battle started in the direction of Yuhuatai, Leng Yu had already arrived at the outskirts of Xiaolingwei. He looked at the mountain tops in the thick fog with a telescope, called several battalion commanders and said: "I am making my own decision this time. I'm afraid the commander will take advantage of me when I go back."
My skin is cramping and my muscles are cramped! Whether we can save this little life depends on whether the brothers work hard enough."
Ji Senran, a member of the Revolutionary Army, and a group of battalion commanders who had all suffered from discipline, all looked worried and convinced. They were all from the teaching team, and they were all a group of lawless and bold guys. In Leng Yu's words, guys who follow the rules.
, if you can't join the secret service, you will have a useless life if you do.
"What the heck are you afraid of! As long as you scoop up the Xiaoling Guards, I will accept them even if they are hit with military sticks. Commander, I will lead a battalion to touch them quietly, and those wimps in the patrol camp will blow up their nests with one accurate hit?p>
The first battalion commander, Hu Yaozu, smiled broadly and grabbed the task. The second battalion commander, Zhang Chuncheng, didn't answer and sneered: "Why are you leading the first battalion up? The last time the entire regiment had a competition,
The second battalion did not lose to the first battalion." Qiao Long, commander of the third battalion, said nothing and sneered with a gloomy face?p>
None of the three battalion commanders obeyed the other. This is the characteristic of the special service regiment. The machine gun battalion commander Ouyang Gui was not content with this. His fire support was very popular and everyone had to ask for him. He always stayed on the Diaoyutai.
"What the hell!" Leng Yu yelled, and several battalion commanders became honest, and then continued: "According to the intelligence, there are three thousand Qing troops defending Xiaoling Guard, and the losses will definitely be huge if they attack openly. Lao Hu
, you ask the First Company to touch it. The First Company Commander is a former mountain king, and he is good at sneaking around. Everyone else should listen to me, and then follow quietly. If there is a fight in front, they will all come to me. Old Hu,
You have made your explanation clear and try to shoot as late as possible."
A thick fog brought a lot of trouble to the attacking side, but it was also troublesome to the defending side. The fighting was lively on the Yuhuatai side, and the Xiaoling Guard side was alerted. Zhao Huipeng, the commander of the patrol battalion, had already gotten up, watching this
Qian Zhifu muttered. Judging by this, the revolutionary army started fighting openly and openly. The sound of the artillery was quite fierce. I wonder how Cheng Wenjun is doing?
Feeling uneasy, Zhao Huipeng walked around with his soldiers, looking around the position and checking the sentry again and again. Just as he was about to leave, a gunshot suddenly rang out behind him.
"What's going on?" He turned around in shock and heard someone say: "The gun went off!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a rain of gunfire rang out, as if there were hundreds of electrostatic guns firing. Zhao Huipeng was stunned for a moment, what was going on? How many people had to fight against such dense gunfire.
It must be Leng Yu's bad luck. The Qing army's gun did go off, but Hu Yaozu, who was leading the commando, didn't know. When he heard the gunfire, he thought he was exposed. He simply refused to do anything and ordered to take action. By now, he had already touched
At the front line of the front line, the firepower of a submachine gun for each person was unimaginable to the Qing army armed with Hanyang.
It doesn’t matter just because of its powerful firepower. This sharp-sword army carefully built by Fang Jianxiong has selected the best soldiers, and they are originally used in critical situations. They are well-equipped and trained hard, and are much stronger than ordinary troops. Especially
It's tactical training, and it has become a conditioned reflex practiced by four teams. Once the fighting starts, the sharp knife company in front rushes forward, and the following two companies immediately follow to fight on both sides, and the covering machine guns are immediately set up.
Mortar fire and light machine gun fire were launched.
This tactic requires a certain precision, a continuous wave of attacks, opening a gap, and supporting troops to immediately follow up and expand the results of the battle.
Let alone a patrol camp, even the Beiyang Army has never seen such a fight. There was a rain of grenades thirty meters away. I greeted you first, and then rushed forward and was constantly fired by submachine guns. At this time, there was no ammunition.
Said.
The attack was like a gust of wind and rain, and the patrol battalion was unable to find its way. The two battalion heads deployed on the front line instantly dispersed most of the casualties and fled.
Zhao Huipeng was also a fierce general. He brought two battalion leaders to reinforce him. When he saw something was wrong, he immediately ordered to abandon the first line position and defend the second line position. At the same time, he ordered his two 37 cannons to suppress and fire, aiming at the target when they could not see it.
The bombardment was done in front of the position.
Zhao Huipeng's reaction was quite timely, and the revolutionary army's unstoppable battle stalled. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, raindrops of artillery shells fell from the sky. The sound was different from ordinary artillery, and it fell like a ghost.
.In an instant, the position was bombed and people were knocked upside down. One company of the cannon battalion had six 82 mortars, and the four companies had 24 mortars and opened fire at the same time.
The two Sanqi mountaineering cannons that exposed their targets were instantly blown to pieces. People could be vaguely seen rushing upwards in the thick fog. Zhao Huipeng kicked his butt and let his men show up and shoot. As soon as they got up, the two were hit by a dense barrage of bullets.
It has become a sieve and cannot lift its head up at all.
After finally waiting for the firepower to slow down, the soldiers were waiting for their probes to fire, when a bunch of things fell from the dark sky. Based on instinct, Zhao Huipeng threw himself on the ground. Then there were constant explosions in his ears, and the thick smoke did not disperse.
The revolutionary troops, who were shouting to kill, went up to the position and rained bullets on them. The Qing troops in the position had no power to fight back.
More than a thousand people defended the position, but within an hour they were beaten and fled in all directions. Zhao Huipeng was pinched by the soldiers and ran back. When he retreated to the last position, he still hadn't woken up. What is this?
What kind of army is this? What kind of fighting style is this? Looking at the remaining troops under his command, there are less than a thousand people. Zhao Huipeng’s calves are trembling. A strong general feels a deep fear!
