After watching it for a while, Guo Zhuocheng smiled and said to Wang Guangdao: "Chief of Staff Wang, the enemy is really ill-intentioned, he wants to overwhelm us with momentum, and wants to force us to flee in spite of difficulties. You can see that they are all marching in unison, with a battalion as the lead, and a regiment behind them rolling forward, with those advancing, covering, and defending, and then artillery escorting them, which is really cautious. ”

Wang Guangdao put down the binoculars, sighed and said: "The reason why our anti-encirclement and suppression campaign failed this time is because of this rolling tactic adopted by the Central Army, which marched forward step by step and in a group, so that we could not gnaw at all. In addition, they also built pillboxes and fortifications in one place when they occupied one place, and some of our leaders demanded that we fight the enemy to the death and not allow the enemy to advance a single step, as if they were deliberately cooperating with the enemy, and just brought the enemy's superiority into full play. If we had continued to follow the tactics of Chairman Mao in the past, retreated in great strides and made a large-scale detour, as long as we diverted the enemy away and did not care about the gains and losses of one city or one place, we would not have been so miserable, and we would not have been forced to lose the Central Soviet Area. ”

Hearing Wang Guangdao say that the superior was not, political commissar Zhang Pingkai couldn't say anything, but he still coughed.

Guo Shucheng smiled: "Political Commissar Zhang, don't worry about what we said. You can rest assured, now all the Red officers and soldiers want Chairman Mao to take up the leadership post, and I also believe that it will not be long before the current situation will change, and the Chinese will decide their own affairs. This huge military defeat is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing, and our team will come out of the defeat and go from one victory to another. ”

Wang Guangdao still changed the topic and said: "In this kind of tactics of the Central Army, when encountering those whose weapons are inferior to theirs and do not insist on flexibility, they will naturally win. But when they encounter someone with stronger weapons and equipment than them, they do so to send them to death, or to use them as targets for others. As long as our artillery ranges beyond theirs, we will lose dozens of casualties if one shot hits them. In one fell swoop, their formation was disrupted, and their seemingly impregnable front was destroyed in one fell swoop. Charge with a small force with strong firepower, and they will have to fail. ”

Guo Zhuocheng looked at the battlefield in the distance and said, "Okay, this battle will be commanded by you." ”

Wang Guangdao asked in surprise, "Commanded by me?" ”

Guo Shucheng said: "Yes, I will learn from the side." Speaking of this, he turned to Luo Xi who was following behind him and asked. Captain Luo, can your artillery guarantee to bomb the enemy headquarters in the first place? ”

Luo Xi smiled confidently: "Of course you can." They can win the first round, and they are guaranteed to be leaderless. If you allow me to use the M-2 howitzer, I can destroy their main force in five minutes. The range of the 92 infantry guns was a little closer, and it was not possible to drive them over after the start of the shelling, but only drove them away. ”

This time, the artillery was transferred from that time and space in 1991. It is mainly the Japanese 70-mm mountain artillery - 92 infantry gun captured by the squadron after the end of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the US M-2 howitzer captured on the battlefield of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea. Both weapons were developed in the thirties and forties, and they are excellent heavy weapons after battlefield tests.

Light weight, high accuracy, easy to use and maintain, simple control requirements, very suitable for the Chinese battlefield.

Guo Shucheng hurriedly said: "No, I want to catch more prisoners." These are my sources of soldiers, and if you want to blow them out, where will I find someone to be a soldier? Now Chen Peng and Sun Xingguo have cut off their back road. I can't run away if I want to. ”

After listening to their conversation, Wang Guangdao knew that no matter who commanded the Red Army, he would win a great victory in this battle: First of all, because the Red Army had an absolute advantage in weapons, and Guo Zhuocheng did not know where to get these artillery, although they were a bit old, but as long as he looked at them, he knew that these things were great weapons of great destruction, and he had seen them in yesterday's training, and they were fought far and accurately, and they were better than the few precious mountain guns captured by the Red Army before, and I don't know how many times.

The second is the superiority of the Red Army, although yesterday during the small-scale reorganization eliminated some of the old, weak, sick and disabled. But a lot of elite forces have been added, and their number has reached 12,000. The Central Army, on the other hand, was two divisions with less than 1,500 men, one regiment was less than 1,500 men, and two divisions and four regiments were less than 6,000 men, and the Red Army could be said to be twice as many as them.

Third, the troops led by Chen Peng, Sun Xingguo and others cut off the enemy's rear route, that is, they realized the encirclement of the enemy. The enemy has become a turtle in an urn, and there is no escape. No matter how careful Xiao Zhiping and Wang Dongyuan were, they couldn't imagine that the Red Army in front of them was not installing traps in ravines or county towns. It's just outside the county seat. Just where they thought it could not be a trap, a trap improvised by superior forces and firepower.

It can be said that the vast majority of the Red Army gathered under Guo Zhuocheng crawled out of the pile of dead men, and their courage had already been trained, and they hated the Central Army even more.

There is also the fact that Luo Xi's artillery can ensure that the enemy's command headquarters is in one pot, and when the battle first breaks out, the enemy will be leaderless, and surrounded by superior forces with advanced weapons, if they don't collapse, there will be no reason, unless they are King Kong transformations one by one, and one by one is cast of steel and iron.

Guo Zhuocheng saw that Wang Guangdao was full of confidence, so he said with a smile: "The request I gave you is to be fast and capture more prisoners." ”

Wang Guangdao said loudly: "No problem, I promise to let us add a lot of soldiers." After speaking, he said to Luo Xi, "Captain Luo, we will face each other now, and the shelling will start in ten minutes!" ”

Luo Xi straightened up and said loudly: "Yes!" ”

Not long after, under the command of Commander Xiao Zhiping and Deputy Commander Wang Dongyuan, the Central Army attacked less than a kilometer away from the county seat of Jianghua, and the city wall of the county town was already vividly visible, and the officers and soldiers cheered.

However, when attacking here, they had to stop, because the fortifications in front were much denser and tighter than those in front, and there were at least thirty machine guns and no less than ten heavy machine guns emerging from the trenches.

Before they could charge, the opponent's heavy machine guns roared angrily, and then the light machine guns also rang out, not thinking at all about the old habits of the Red Army, which were not at all close to the enemy and then attacked, nor were they stingy with bullets, and they were even more generous than their Central Army, and the purpose of such a dense bullet shot was only to stop them from advancing.

The enemy battalion commander who served as the leader was helpless and surprised: "Bah, hey, these communists dare to compete with the dragon king?" With so many machine guns and so many bullets at once, I'm afraid all the family resources are here, right? ”

In the face of so many light and heavy machine guns, only one battalion naturally couldn't even raise its head, and the enemy battalion commander naturally didn't have the courage to command the troops to charge, so he hurriedly reported the situation to the rear and to his superiors.

After listening to the report from the front, Xiao Zhiping was also very strange, I don't know why the other party committed such stupidity, could it be that the communists and bandits still play a stupid trick to keep the enemy out of the country? Or do you stubbornly hold the front and not let the center-army move forward? Okay, Lao Tzu will fulfill you, use cannons against your machine guns, and wipe out all your elites under the city walls.

Soon, most of the Central Army moved forward, and their artillery immediately established positions outside the range of heavy machine guns.

As everyone knows, the current Red Army is not what it used to be, and its armed equipment is much better than that of the Central Army, and they just hope that the Central Army can gather together, that is, they hope that their artillery will be concentrated on the front line, so as to facilitate the annihilation of the Red Army's artillery.

When Wang Guangdao was excited to see that the enemy was acting according to the battle plan formulated by Guo Zhuocheng and himself, a cloud of doubt floated in the heart of Bai Chongxi, who was far away in Guilin.

What he suspected was: "Why did the Red Army entrenched in Jianghua County let him withdraw the Gui army from Guanyang County and from the front line of the Xiangjiang River safely, and why didn't they set out from Baimangying Town to attack Guilin?" If that Guo Zhuocheng was really purely for money, gold and silver, he should also attack like this, and when I attacked when Gui-Lin's troops were empty, I would dare not give the gold and silver in a panic? ”

Not to mention the military, as long as people with a little military common sense also know the truth that the opportunity is fleeting, and also know the truth that it is necessary to attack the enemy if they are unprepared. But why did he stick to Jianghua County, waiting for the central army to attack them? Is he really going to establish some base there?

But there are many mountains and few lands in that place, and the poverty there can be described as a place where birds don't, and the only thing that can be exchanged for money is those ores. However, he can't use these ores, the Gui army and the central army will surround it on all sides, and no matter how much ore he digs, can he eat and wear? If it can't be shipped out, if it can't be shipped to Europe or the United States, the ore is not a pile of garbage?

At this moment, his nephew and staff officer Hai Jingqiang walked in, and after making a report, he asked, "Uncle, why do you still want me to prepare silver dollars, gold, and silver?" Now they have missed the best time to sneak up on us, and in just a few hours, our main forces have returned to Gui-Lin and moved to Longhu Pass, they can only fall into the trap if they want to attack us. ”

Bai Chongxi looked at the map on the table and said, "I can't guess this surnamed Guo at all, I don't know if he is playing tricks on me, or if he really has the ability." ”

Hai Jingqiang said: "It is impossible for him not to know your prestige, it is definitely impossible to play you, what is he to dare to play you." I wonder if he did it for anyone else? Otherwise, why didn't he do it? ”

Bai Chongxi said: "It doesn't matter if he does it for others to see." If he can't stop Xiao Zhiping's two divisions, they will definitely flee to the territory of our Gui army, and there will be a fight to the death between me and him. Giving him money is to hope that he will not burn and kill indiscriminately in our Gui-Lin, and at the same time, when he is careless, I think I am really afraid of him. ”
