Chapter 78 Breakout Battle (4)

At this time, the military discipline of the Central Army was still very good. In less than half an hour, a regiment of troops arrived at the designated position. The regiment leader took a telescope and looked at the Red Army on the city wall. At this time, the Red Army was using its own troops to

Prepared sandbags to build fortifications.

"Order the mortar company to carry out fire suppression, and the first battalion will charge immediately under the cover of artillery fire." As soon as he finished speaking, a test-fired artillery shell fell at the base of the city wall. The soldiers who were building fortifications couldn't help but were stunned. They were building the city wall.

Liu Hua, who went up to inspect the fortifications and troop casualties, was also shocked. "The enemy came so quickly! As expected of the well-trained Central Army."

"Order: The mortar company immediately searches for the enemy's artillery positions and conducts destructive bombardment of the enemy's artillery positions. All soldiers immediately enter the positions and resolutely launch the enemy's counterattack. Send a report to the commander of the Gaoyuan Division and ask him to quickly send a regiment of troops.

Support him and tell him to guard the south gate and resolutely destroy all enemies protruding outside the city."

"Boom, boom, boom..." The enemy's artillery company, which had repaired its scale, began to bombard. The factory immediately set off a rain of blood. "The mortar company will fight back immediately." Liu Hua shouted loudly.

With the completion of one test shot, the mortar company of the First Division immediately launched an effective counterattack according to the rested ballistic trajectory. The enemy's mortar company was instantly enveloped by 12 rounds of shells.

"Boom..." The explosion of artillery shells and the detonation of artillery shells immediately rang out. The enemy commander looked blankly at the sea of ​​​​fire behind him. "How is it possible? When did the Communist army have such powerful artillery fire?

Knowing that this mortar company was the only artillery unit of the city defense force, it was destroyed in front of my eyes."

"Commander, attack quickly. There is no artillery now. If we don't take down the city wall, military law will definitely be waiting for us. Commander, give the order quickly!" the deputy commander immediately reminded.

"Yes, order the first battalion to attack immediately, and the second and third battalions will follow up. The battalions are separated by a hundred meters. Even if they use people to pile up, they still have to take back the city wall. The heavy machine guns will open fire immediately to suppress the fire.

"The regiment leader, after being reminded by the adjutant, roared at the battalion commanders around him.

Liu Hua stood on the city wall, looking at the dense formation of enemy troops on the street, and couldn't help but cursed, "Idiot, aren't you looking for death?" Then he ordered the mortar company commander behind him, "Correct the coordinates immediately and attack the enemy."

We formed a charge formation to conduct shelling, and the heavy machine guns opened fire when the locals approached 200 meters away." After saying that, he shook his head and walked towards the tower.

Following the command of the artillery company commander, more than a dozen large holes immediately appeared in the enemy's attack formation. In the dense attack formation of the local people, each falling artillery shell would take away several or even a dozen of them.

life.

The attacking battalion of the enemy immediately dispersed. The soldiers were scurrying around and began to retreat. However, before taking a few steps back, the second battalion behind them had already pressed forward with bayonets raised. The defeated troops had no choice but to retreat under the threat of another attack.

Joined the offensive formation again. In this way, under the bombardment of more than a dozen mortars, when the enemy approached 200 meters of the city wall, only less than two battalions of the three battalions were left. Then, the regiment, which had been prepared for a long time,

The heavy machine gun companies opened fire one after another, and the attacking enemies fell one after another on the offensive road, but the design was unable to break through the 150 meters to reach the fire net.

Finally, some soldiers could no longer stand the test of blood and fire, and the supervisory team who was not behind the pass began to flee. With this as an example, the remaining soldiers dropped their rifles and joined the fleeing team. "

Order the first battalion to follow the defeated army in a follow-up attack and build a fortification at the entrance of the street. The heavy machine gun company will follow up." Liu Hua, who had been paying attention to the battle situation, immediately ordered.

"Looking at the retreating team, looking at the Red Army following closely behind the team, the regimental commander's face was purple and blue. One regiment, it's over." The guard company immediately built a position to block the Communist attack.

I retreated and killed without mercy." After saying that, regardless of the reaction of the guard company commander, he took the deputy commander and the guards with him and ran towards the headquarters.

"Master's seat, Master's seat, it's not good, the communist army has invaded 500 meters into the city." The regimental commander ran into the headquarters with a face filled with gunpowder smoke.

"What, where are your troops? I'll kill you," after saying that, the angry-looking division commander began to draw his gun.

"Master, now is the time to hire people. Can you spare him and listen to him talk about the current situation?" the chief of staff stopped the angry division commander and comforted him.

"Huh, tell me quickly. If you don't tell me, I will shoot you." The teacher snorted coldly.

"Yes, Master. Thank you Master for not killing me. Master, my regiment is gone. There is only one regiment, and now there are only more than 200 people standing on the streets." The regiment leader immediately started to cry in front of Shi Doang.

.

"What, there are only more than 200 people left, how could it be..." The division commander looked at the regimental commander in front of him in surprise. "Tell me, what's going on?" the chief of staff next to him immediately reminded.

The regiment leader looked at the chief of staff with a grateful expression, and immediately said: "That's it, Master..." The regiment leader quickly told Beicheng's battle Tianyou with jealousy.

After listening to the regimental commander's words, the division commander was silent. Now that the firepower of the Communist Army has been greatly strengthened, even better than our own, how can we defend it for two days?

"Quick, Commander-in-Chief Chen Cheng sent a report, saying that since the Communist army attacked the city for three hours, our department has lost two elite regiments. Now there are less than four regiments of available troops in the city, and we cannot hold out for two days. Please tell me, Commander-in-Chief

Command and send reinforcements quickly, otherwise Changde will not be protected." After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Chen Cheng's general headquarters was in chaos at this time. Chen Cheng was standing in front of the map, his brows furrowed. "Chief of Staff, what do you think of Changde's telegram?" Chen Cheng looked at the Chief of Staff next to him.

"Commander-in-Chief, based on my understanding of the Changde city garrison commander, it is impossible for him to lie about the military situation."

"Well, I know this too, but I didn't expect that the Communist Army is so powerful now. They wiped out two regiments in three hours. It seems that Changde is really not safe." Chen Cheng shook his head.

"Commander-in-Chief, now we can only order Li Jue's troops to speed up their march. The Communist army will capture Changde in time. We will also trap the Communist army in Changde City." The chief of staff thought for a while and said.

"Well, that's it, send a report to Li Jue, asking him to rush outside Changde City within two days and surround the county seat," Prime Minister Chen said after a meeting. "Send a report to the chairman of the committee, tell him about the current war situation, and request

The Chairman's platoon of aircraft will fight and must drag He Long's troops into Changde."

At this time, the 26th Red Army Corps led by He Long was slowly moving towards Li Jue's defense area in covert manner, preparing to break through Ji'ao's defense area in one fell swoop and begin to rush towards the Fourth Front Army's base area.

After receiving the telegram from the commander-in-chief, Li Jue was so eager to perform his service that he no longer cared about the task of the defense zone. He mobilized all his main forces and rushed towards Changde non-stop. Only a few garrison regiments were left in the entire Cadbury wide defense line.

After the 26th Army Corps arrived, they quickly surrounded and annihilated the enemies of these regiments. In this way, the 26th Army Corps easily broke through the enemy's heavy encirclement.

At this time, the Seventh Army Corps led by Liu Hua was engaged in fierce street fighting. Due to the enemy aircraft's participation in the battle, Sun Jian interrupted Liu Hua's battle plan. Although he had made great progress without reading the card, he had already occupied half of the area with his cooperation.

Changde, but the enemy's bombing has become more and more frequent. Some low-level soldiers have even fired close to the city wall, causing heavy casualties to the Seventh Army.

Liu Hua, the political commissar and others were at the temporary headquarters, frowning and thinking about how to deal with the enemy's aircraft.

Suddenly, a later example of using a light machine gun to shoot an aircraft appeared in front of Liu Hua's eyes. "Political Commissar, immediately gather all the light machine guns in the reserve team to the temporary headquarters. I have a task for them."

Political Commissar Guan Xiangying looked at Liu Hua doubtfully, but still ordered a staff officer to give the order.
