Chapter 31: Annihilating two enemy brigades (2)

The deputy commander of the 3rd Division was riding happily on his war horse, constantly urging the troops to speed up their march. Perhaps knowing that the Communist Army had the strength to annihilate an enemy brigade, he hugged his two brigades together this time.

, only one company of vanguards was dispatched, and they drove quickly towards Changsha. The distance of dozens of miles passed quickly for the fast-moving troops.

Liu Hua, who was ambushing at the end, could already vaguely see the enemy's shadow through his telescope. Except for a company of forwards, all the enemy's troops were arranged in neat queues, and all heavy machine guns were carried in groups of four.

On the shoulders, the mortars were also dismantled and carried on mules and horses. Looking at the boxes of shells, Liu Hua's eyes went straight. Although his own shells were sufficient, after all, one shot was missing.

His own logistics and transportation capabilities are already very strong. Liu Hua can be said to be the more the merrier, and he will not reject anyone who comes.

"The division commander, the reconnaissance battalion and the guard battalion have been in place, all enemy troops have entered the ambush circle, and all troops are ready." The correspondent promptly informed the division commander of the latest situation.

"Bang" Following Liu Hua's first gunshot, the mortars and heavy machine guns of the Independent Division, which had been prepared for a long time, began to speak one after another, breathing life-threatening tongues of fire.

Those were 40 mortars. As the 40 shells fell, many blood holes immediately appeared in the densely marching queue. The Central Army was instantly blinded. You know, only the Communist Army has been bombed.

, when will it be the turn of these veteran soldiers to be bombed? The national troops who were bombed were immediately blinded. However, the Central Army was well-trained. Facing the bullets that kept harvesting their lives, they quickly fell to the ground.

Although most of his superiors had been knocked to the ground by the first round of gunfire.

Although Liu Hua's first round of strikes caused heavy casualties to the enemy, the defeated Central Army troops were all new recruits, while the veterans had already fallen to the ground early because of their experience.

Slowly, the enemy began to shoot at their own independent division under the organization of their own company platoon leader. The enemy's light machine gunners began to fight back intermittently. However, they did not persist for too long, and the snipers began to take aim.

These heavy-duty fighters, as the machine gunners continued to die, no one dared to approach these weapons anymore.

But among the enemy riflemen, if they could survive a few hits from their own artillery and heavy machine guns, they must be very experienced veterans. Under their attacks, his own troops began to suffer casualties, and Liu Hua began to

Get anxious.

"Chen Guangrong, what are you going to do? Hurry, order the artillery to blast where the enemy troops are concentrated. They must not be allowed to gather together. Hurry." Liu Hua shouted anxiously.

Soon, mortars began another round of intensive bombing. Soon, the enemy soldiers lying on the ground jumped up because of the bombing. But they were immediately knocked to the ground by intensive machine gun fire. Liu Hua smiled, "

This is the effect we want." Liu Hua smiled softly.

Soon, after several rounds of artillery fire passed, there were very few enemy troops lying on the ground resisting, but there was still sporadic resistance, but it did not cause much damage to our own troops.

"Corpser, blow the charge horn." Liu Hua ordered decisively.

"Tick-tock-tock..." "Charge..." Immediately, the exciting sound of the charge horn and the slogan of charge rang out. Liu Hua stood up, looked at the battlefield in front of him, and smiled.

"Xiao Wang, send a report to the political commissar, saying that we have wiped out two enemy brigades, and let him start taking action according to the original plan." Liu Hua thought for a while, "Also, order Commander Gao and Commander Wang to let them

Quickly clean up the battlefield and report the warring states and losses."

"Report to the division commander, the results of the battle have been calculated." Several military supervisors hurriedly ran to Liu Hua's side.

"Well, let's read it."

"Division Commander, in this battle we have completely wiped out two enemy brigades with a total of 8,000 people, and captured less than a thousand people. We have captured the equipment and ammunition of three artillery companies and the equipment of two heavy machine gun companies. Other weapons and ammunition are being counted.

middle."

After saying that, he looked at his teacher with a smile.

Liu Hua did not smile and said lightly, "Are there any casualties?" Now Liu Hua is most afraid of too many casualties in his troops. You must know that he is currently in the middle of a battle. If there are too many wounded, it will definitely affect his future.

deployed.

After hearing the division commander's words, the expressions of several people immediately changed: "Report to the regimental commander, we have a total of 612 comrades killed, only 12 seriously injured, and very few minor injuries, less than 100."

After hearing this, Liu Hua asked in disbelief: "Why is the proportion of casualties so high?" You must know that in general battles, more people are injured than killed, but since there were so many killed this time, can Liu Hua not be surprised?

?|

"Teacher, you will know when you come and take a look."

Liu Hua walked to the bodies of the martyrs and saw that most of the fallen soldiers were shot in the head. It was horrific. Seeing this, Liu Hua figured it out: The Central Army was different. Everyone's marksmanship was with bullets.

It was fed out, so many people are very good at shooting. I didn’t expect it. Liu Hua said with emotion.

Immediately bury the bodies of the soldiers, and also transfer personnel from their respective supplementary battalions to make up all three of their main battalions, so as not to affect the subsequent battles. The personnel of the new battalion will all be supplemented from prisoners, and Chen Guangrong, to

Select some of the prisoners who can shoot artillery and organize the enemy's artillery battalion. After forming an artillery battalion, you will still be in command. Zhu Ping did the same and immediately formed two heavy machine gun companies. After half an hour, the troops will be assembled for a new mission.

"

"Yes." All the chief officers gave a silent military salute and then ran towards their troops.

"Operator, send a report to Commander Sun, asking them to continue to pretend to attack Changsha without causing too many casualties. They can't retreat until I give orders."

Soon all the troops reached full strength, and several regiment and battalion commanders came to Liu Hua again.

"Captain Gao, how many captured soldiers are there now?"

"Division Commander, there are still 300 people left and they are being guarded by the security battalion."

"Well, Commander Gao, I now order you to take the Second Regiment, the reconnaissance battalion, and the sniper company to escort the captured supplies, the remaining prisoners, and the newly formed artillery battalion and heavy machine gun battalion to meet the political commissar ten kilometers ahead along the river.

Meet up, help the political commissar cross the river, and then hand over the supplies to the political commissar, then lead the troops to raid Anhua. If you can capture it, capture it. If you can't, surround him. I will lead the main force and I will arrive immediately. Note

Stay there, there won’t be too many casualties.”

"Yes, Commander, I will definitely not embarrass the Independent Division." Gao Yuan said with a sonorous salute.

"Well, go ahead!" Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, the rest of you will follow me to attack Zhuzhou. Let's start immediately." Liu Hua saw the remaining pairs of expectant eyes and said with a smile.

"Report to the division commander, no good, something happened." The staff officer on duty hurried into the room of the 3rd Division Commander.

The commander of the 3rd Division who was having lunch was thinking about his promotion. When he saw the hurried staff interrupting him, he immediately shouted angrily: "Why are you so anxious? It's not like the sky is falling. Let's see how anxious I am. I'll kill you."

about you."

"Commander, commander, it's really...really...the sky...has fallen." The staff officer saw his division commander getting so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly.

"The sky is falling. If you don't have anything important to do, I won't kill you."

"Division commander, it's bad. A division of the Communist Army is heading towards Zhuzhou. The scout said it will reach the city in half an hour." The staff officer finally said what he needed to say.

"Ahem! Ahem..." "What did you say? The Communist army is heading towards Zhuzhou, with a division of men and horses?" The division commander was so frightened by the staff officer's words that he almost spit out the food he had just eaten.

"Damn it, you didn't tell me earlier!" After saying that, he hurried to the war room.

"Chief of Staff, contact the deputy division commander immediately and ask him to bring the troops back. Contact us quickly." Before reaching the war room, the division commander shouted loudly.

Seeing the Chief of Staff who was not moving, he became even more angry: "Chief of Staff, why don't you go and send the report? It will delay the war. Be careful, I will shoot you! Go quickly!"

"Reporting to the division commander, I contacted the deputy division commander just now, but the contact was interrupted. The contact between the first brigade and the second brigade was also interrupted."

"What?" The teacher sat down on the stool.

Seeing his division commander sitting blankly on the stool, the chief of staff immediately reminded: "Commander, what should we do next? The Communist army will arrive at the city in less than half an hour."

"What else can we do? Order the troops to strengthen the city defense and withdraw all the troops outside the city to assist in the defense." The division commander said angrily.

"Teacher, what should Jiang Fang do?"

"Beware, beware of your size, your life is gone, there is nothing else to be guarded against, hurry up and send the order, let them run back to help." The division commander said eagerly.

"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, our reinforcements have not arrived yet."

"What, how did his 3rd Division get reinforcements? Send me a report quickly," He Jian became more and more anxious as he listened to the continuous sound of cannons on the city wall, and kept walking around in the war room.

"Commander-in-Chief, something happened, something happened!" The staff officer hurried over.

"What happened again? Tell me all at once." He Jian couldn't help but get angry after hearing the bad news for almost a day.

"Yes, yes, Commander-in-Chief, the commander of the 3rd Division just called. They have also been disconnected from the reinforcements. The reinforcements have probably been given by the Communist Army..." The staff officer held back and did not say anything.

"Get out, get out! Do I, He Jian, really want to..."

"Commander-in-Chief, we still have reinforcements. There are two regiments of reinforcements in Anren County. If we hurry up, they should be here tomorrow morning," the chief of staff reminded in a low voice.

"Then why are you still standing there? Go and let them support you." He Jian roared.

I completely forgot that the Communist Army could wipe out two of its own brigades, let alone two regiments. However, this just did Gao Yuan a big favor.
