Predator Reborn

Chapter 22 Great Victory

"Captain, the enemy has no search troops. A brigade is running forward in two formations. The vanguard is still two miles away from the ambush circle." The latest intelligence came from the reconnaissance company,

"The enemy's vanguard has entered the ambush circle, but the rearguard has not yet entered."

As the reconnaissance platoon spread the situation to Liu Hua's ears bit by bit, the enemy vanguard had entered Liu Hua's field of vision. Liu Hua picked up a rifle next to him and took aim at an officer on horseback.

"Commander, all enemy troops have entered the ambush circle."

As he finished speaking, the gun that Liu Hua had aimed at for a long time rang out. Through the telescope, he saw the officer falling down with an expression of disbelief on his face.

The sound of gunfire was an order. The heavy machine gun company immediately removed the cover in front of the machine gun. The 24 heavy machine guns immediately sprayed out deadly bullets, harvesting enemy lives everywhere. The soldiers of the second regiment, who had been prepared for a long time, heard the division commander

After the gunfire, all the firepower of the whole regiment opened fire at once. After the rifleman finished firing a round, he picked up the grenade prepared next to him and threw it down. After hearing the gunshot from the division commander, the recruit camp also threw it out because of nervousness.

Hold on to the grenade for a long time.

After knowing that he was going to eliminate the remnants of less than one regiment, the commander of the 24th Division's Second Brigade quickly ordered the troops to assemble, leaving the baggage camp to defend Anren, and led all the troops straight to Chaling.

I thought that by destroying this group, I would immediately be able to raise my military rank by one level with this military achievement. Just when I was feeling happy, my dream was suddenly shattered by the sound of a gunshot. My own guard threw me off my horse.

Just when he was thrown off his horse, a bullet grazed his ear with a trace of burning heat and hit his guard. A pool of red and white brains sprayed on his face. The shooter was the one who had just been appointed.

Company Commander Luo Wenhua.

The brigade commander buried his head on the ground and just took out his pistol. When he looked up, he saw a row of more than 20 heavy machine guns on the opposite mountain, lined up and suddenly spitting out tongues of fire at his team. The brigade commander quickly buried his head in the

He fell under the body of the guard who had just died for him. At this time, the gunfire became more intensive. As a professional soldier who relied on military merit to get up step by step, he estimated that the troops attacking him had at least twenty heavy machine guns.

Forty or fifty light machine guns. Oh my god, this is more powerful than my own firepower.

Division Commander, Division Commander, didn't you say that the Communist Army only has less than one regiment? How can it have such strong firepower? This division is more than one, and my brigade is just over...

Just when he was thinking wildly, a whine came to his ears, and he knew it was the sound of a group of grenades falling. It's over, it's over... Thinking of this, an explosion sounded next to him, and he immediately lost consciousness.

Looking at the enemy troops below, after all the firepower was opened, the soldiers on both sides fell one by one under the fire of light and heavy machine guns. Many people were killed without knowing what happened. Those soldiers who reacted just relied on the terrain to fall down.

On the ground, when he was about to fire back, pieces of grenades fell down again.

It was even worse for the machine gunners and artillerymen. Under the special care of Luo Wenhua's sniper company, the machine gunners and artillerymen felt better. All soldiers who wanted to get close to the heavy machine guns and mortars were accurately shot by the snipers without exception.

After sniping, looking at the colleagues whose heads were shot, those people no longer dared to approach those heavy weapons. They could only lie on the ground obediently and pray.

Perhaps Chen Guangrong was reluctant to part with those equipment and those technical arms, so all the heavy firepower seemed to have bypassed them, allowing their prayers to take effect.

Looking at the battlefield filled with corpses after continuous strafing and several rounds of bombing, Liu Hua ordered the charge trumpet to be blown. The soldiers shouted "Charge..." But all they needed to do was to clean the battlefield and collect the prisoners, because after

The remnants of the enemy troops who had been tested by the fire no longer dared to resist. They could only raise their guns with trembling hands and surrender to the Red Army, which they had always looked down upon.

Liu Hua did not charge, he knew that all that was left was to clean the battlefield, and stood there with a smile watching the soldiers charge.

Looking at the division commanders standing there, Gao Yuan, Li Qing... looked at the battlefield in front of them in disbelief. An elite brigade of the enemy collapsed in just a few minutes. Since the Long March, he had never seen anything like this.

Victory! They shouted loudly and ran towards their division commander.

"Commander, commander, we have won, we have won..."

Seeing several men shed tears with excitement, Liu Hua was also moved, walked over, hugged them and said, yes! We won.

The results were quickly tallied up

A total of one enemy brigade was wiped out in this battle, and no one escaped. More than 500 people were captured, mainly artillerymen and heavy machine gunners.

Twelve mortars, 12 heavy machine guns, 72 light machine guns, a total of more than 2,000 rifles, pistols, and submachine guns, more than 15,000 grenades, and countless ammunition were seized. There was also a radio station.

Among them, his brigade commander was shot dead.

We had no casualties and 43 people were injured, none seriously.

Hearing the statistics of the results of the Second Regiment's Chief of Staff Wang Nanhu, everyone went crazy, shouting wildly, and some even fired into the sky for fun. Liu Hua did not stop him because he knew everything these soldiers had seen since the Long March.

It was my comrades who fell under the enemy's gun. Today I finally won, and I can finally vent my dissatisfaction. Besides, I have enough ammunition now, so I have no reason to stop the soldiers.

Seeing everyone's faces full of excitement, but Liu Hua was thinking calmly, Chief of Staff Wang Nanhu said again

"Division Commander, there is another situation. I just interrogated a company commander. He said that the enemy's only supply camp is currently defending Anren. There is still a large amount of ammunition stored in Anren. Are we..."

Looking at Chief of Staff Liu Hua who had a cunning smile on his face, he smiled. After being with him for a long time, every one of his subordinates had a cunning look on his face and they took advantage of him.

Liu Hua nodded, "Chief of Staff Wang, you lead the 1st and 2nd Battalions into Anren as the Central Army's defeated army, annihilate the enemy's supply camp, and transport the captured weapons and ammunition back immediately. You cannot stay in Anren for too long, and directly escort the captured materials to Cha

Ling, we will go to Chaling to wait for your victorious return."

"Yes, Commander, we will definitely complete the mission."

"Command the troops to clean up the battlefield immediately and enter Chaling."

"Liu Xiaogang, immediately send an order to a group to launch a general attack on Chaling."

At this time, Lao Sun was holding a telescope, watching the enemies on the city wall running around under his own artillery fire, waiting for the division commander's order.

"Commander Sun, the division commander ordered to launch a general offensive,"

After hearing the order, Lao Sun smiled. It was finally my turn to show off his power.

"Order the artillery to fire five rounds rapidly, drop two cannons for me and blow down the city gate. Then the whole regiment will attack and capture Chaling."

"Boom, boom, boom..." A regiment's attack began. Seeing the fierce artillery fire, the swarming Red Army, and the rain of bullets, the Central Army soldiers who had lost more than half could no longer stand it, and dropped their guns.

He ran towards the city, no longer caring about his commander's shouts.

In this way, the regiment captured Chaling at the cost of minor casualties and seized countless ammunition. Looking at the regiment leader standing on the tower to greet them, everyone following Liu Hua went crazy again.

Wang Nanhu easily entered Anren County with the defeated Central Army. Two battalions of nearly a thousand people quickly annihilated the supply battalion with almost no combat effectiveness, and captured all the spare supplies of an enemy brigade. With all the captured supplies,

Take the prisoners and drive towards Chaling.

After nearly a day of fighting, all the cadres of the independent division sat in the conference room of the enemy's regiment command post to summarize today's battle.

"The political commissar will announce our results and casualties." Liu Hua said when he saw everyone had arrived.

"Comrades, after a day of fighting, we have completely wiped out one enemy brigade and one enemy regiment, totaling 6,000 people, of which more than 1,800 were captured.

Countless weapons and ammunition were seized, including a total of 16 mortars, 12 of which were seized in the Mafujiang ambush, and 4 reserve guns were seized from the enemy's convoy camp.

Three companies with a total of 24 heavy machine guns

A total of 110 light machine guns, more than 3,000 rifles, pistols, and submachine guns

Hand grenades, artillery shells, and countless bullets.

Our army lost 55 people in battle and injured more than 120 people, 12 of whom were seriously injured, and the others were all minor injuries, which did not affect the march."

After listening to the political commissar's report, everyone below was smiling. Yes, of course we should be happy for such a big victory.

"I just saw everyone so happy, so I wanted to make everyone happy again. I discussed it with the political commissar and decided to use these prisoners to expand a regiment. That is, the Third Regiment of the Independent Division, with Wang Nanhu as the regiment commander and Chen Revolutionary as the political commissar.

Report to the headquarters for record in the evening. The commanders and political commissars of each regiment will no longer serve as battalion commanders, and the deputy officers of each battalion will directly serve as battalion commanders.

The new Third Regiment of the Independent Division is composed of the First Regiment, the Second Battalion, the Second Regiment, the Second Battalion, and the Recruit Battalion. All the cadres of the Recruit Battalion are retained and continue to serve as the backbone of the Recruit Battalion. The personnel removed from the First Regiment and the Second Regiment are recruited by prisoners who are willing to join the Red Army.

Replenish."

Speaking of this, Liu Hua smiled. Although these Central Army soldiers have good weapons, the soldiers are all trained after being captured and strong. They cannot be compared with the Gui Army and the Hunan Army. After an afternoon of mobilization and complaints... there have been more than 1,000 soldiers.

People are willing to join the Red Army, and if they pass through the night, the number will be even greater.

"One more thing. Now each regiment must set up a heavy firepower company, equipped with 4 mortars and 8 heavy machine guns. The heavy firepower battalion provides the backbone of the soldiers, and the prisoners provide the soldiers. The heavy firepower battalion is divided into two 8-gun firepower companies.

Artillery company, two heavy machine gun companies with 12 heavy machine guns. The sniper company Luo Wenhua has to select sharpshooters from the entire regiment and organize the sniper company into three platoons. The baggage company is expanded into a baggage battalion, and company-level cadres are directly promoted to the position. Among the prisoners

All remaining soldiers selected by each battalion will be handed over to the new barracks for immediate execution."

"Yes." Seeing his subordinates walking out of the conference room with smiles on their faces, Liu Hua smiled happily, he could finally do something big.

"Commander, we have won such a big victory and reorganized our troops. It's time to report the good news to the Central Committee." Political Commissar Li Qing said with a smile.

"Well, let's go, let's go now." Liu Hua stood up and walked towards the door.
