"Very well, Da Kui is right about this. That's what I really mean by calling all of you here. Don't overthink it. Liu Lang clapped his hands and said.

"The super willpower of the red troops is the key to their outnumbered defenders for five days and four nights." Liu Lang waved his hand to let several infantry battalion commanders sit down first, picked up the baton and pointed to the red line marked area on the map and continued: "Let's discuss and analyze how the two sides fought this battle. ”

"Yes, the Red Army had two corps on both sides of the Xiangjiang River, Xinwei, Jiaoshanpu, Guanghuapu and other areas to build fortifications and establish blocking positions. The three positions were all to ensure control of the ferry, in order to allow his supreme commander, who was still a hundred miles away, to cross the Xiang River. Let's not talk about the battle between Xinwei and Jieshou, let's take a look at the battle of Jueshanpu, which has the most troops invested by both sides.

On the national side, it was the Hunan army under the command of Liu Jianxu, the commander of the 1st Route Pursuit and Suppression, including the 16th Division (Zhang Liangji), the 62nd Division (Tao Guang), the 63rd Division (Chen Guangzhong) and the 19th Division (Li Jue) (one brigade), 4 supplementary regiments, and 3 security regiments. Immediately behind the Hunan army, there were also 5 divisions of Xue Yue, which had also advanced to the Huangsha River. The flying brigade stationed in Hengyang by the bald boss can also fly to help in the battle at any time and cooperate with the ground offensive of the Hunan army. Everyone knows the establishment of the Hunan army, with 10,000 to 12,000 men in each division, and the total number of troops in Liu Jianxu's division of the Hunan army reached 60,000 or 70,000.

Let's take a look at the Red Army, it was Lin's Red First Army. The Red First Army had three divisions, namely the Red First Division, the Red Second Division, and the Red 15th Division, which were also called the International Division of the Young Communist Party, and according to the Red Army roster on October 8, 1934, the Red First Army had a total of 19,880 people. However, after the continuous attrition of the first three blockade lines, before this battle, the number of the Red First Army was definitely not so large. Let's just think they still have 17,000 people!

On the first day of the battle of Jueshanpu, the 1st Red Army Corps invested two regiments each of the 2nd and 1st Red Divisions, a total of four regiments. The next day, all six regiments of the 1st and 2nd Red Divisions were invested.

By November 27, more than 60,000 troops of Liu Jianxu's Hunan army had entered Quanzhou and set up a cordon outside the city. By the time the battle began on the 29th, the three regiments of the 2nd Red Division and the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Red Division, a total of four regiments, had all entered the blocking position of Jiaoshanpu.

Jueshanpu is a small village with only more than 20 households, located on the side of the Guihuang Highway, 16 kilometers north of Quanzhou, and about 30 kilometers south of Jieshou Ferry. There are several hills around the village, which are divided into east and west sides by the north-south Guihuang Highway, which intersects with the Guihuang Highway in a cross shape. These mountains from east to west are: Yellow Emperor Ridge, Jianfeng Ridge, Cupola Phoenix Ridge, Beauty Comb Ridge, Rice Flower Mountain, and Huaizhong Baozi Mountain.

Huangdi Ridge and Jianfeng Ridge are on the east side of the highway, and the Phoenix Ridge, the Beauty Comb Ridge, the Rice Flower Mountain, and the Huaizhong Baozi Mountain are on the west side of the highway. Among them, the Yellow Emperor Ridge and the Huaizhong Baozi Mountain are the highest, all of which are at the southern end, the whole terrain is high in the south and low in the north, and the enemy from the north is in the form of attacking from the back, and the red army is condescending. ”

With Liu Lang's narration, several infantry battalion commanders quickly placed the rockery on the sand table into the battlefield described by Liu Lang.

"Now, the red army has four regiments in its hands, but more than 10,000 troops, and they have to face the attack of more than 60,000 people from the Hunan Military Department of the national government. Or, if you imagine this battle as our independent regiment, you have exactly four battalions, and each battalion will be doubled in strength as four regiments, so how can you fight this battle with a huge disparity between us and the enemy? Liu Lang set his eyes on the faces of the officers present.

Everyone looked at each other. They all only saw the battle report of the last battlefield, but they did not know that the disparity in strength in a blocking battle was so great. More than 10,000 to more than 60,000, a difference of four times, not to mention, there are also aircraft and artillery on one side to help. As for the red troops, it may be no problem to have rifles and machine guns, but artillery, don't think about it, marching in such a mountainous area, you want to maneuver quickly, and you still want to move forward with artillery? That would be death, and any commander would have blown up or lost the cannon on the spot.

Firepower is important, but the mobility of the troops is even more important, if the mobility is insufficient and surrounded, no amount of artillery can be exchanged for victory, but Jedi.

Such a disparity in strength was not done even in the Battle of the Great Wall, where they had never done the same with the Eighth Division, which had aircraft and heavy artillery. At that time, they had been building fortifications for nearly a month in advance, and even the machine gun bunkers were covered with steel plates to withstand the bombardment of 150mm howitzers. The strength of the army has also reached more than 7,000 people in three regiments, and the Japanese are only in their early 20,000s, and the ratio of enemy to enemy is 1 to 3, which is far from the ratio of 1 to 5 for the more than 60,000 people faced by the red troops.

It can be said that no matter how arrogant they are, looking at such a disparity in strength, they have no chance of winning, even if the strength of each battalion is doubled, as the regimental commander said, if possible, there are four independent regiments equipped with such firepower today.

But how did the Red Army win the war? Everyone thought of the sentence mentioned in the battle report: Lin, Nie, and Zuo led the remnants to the west. That clearly means that under the attack of more than 60,000 people, those more than 10,000 people actually maintained their viable strength after resisting for several days and retreated under the leadership of their commanders.

And the big guys know very well that the so-called remnants of Lao Liu, the commander-in-chief of the Hunan army, are definitely bragging, and killing one person will repay ten times the result, which is simply their habit. It is not certain that the red troops withdrew their main forces.

It is said that they may know themselves best about their enemies, but in fact, they also know themselves, and a group of lieutenants and officers who also belong to the national army system did not guess wrong this time. Although the red troops suffered heavy casualties in this blocking battle, the main force still retreated smoothly, and the casualties were far from being almost completely wiped out as Lao Liu said. The two Red Divisions lost a total of more than 4,000 men in the three-day fierce battle on the banks of the Xiangjiang River, with a casualty rate of nearly 30 percent.

"Tuanza, if I prepare thirty-six mountain guns and eighty mortars for my artillery battalion, and according to such a favorable terrain, as long as the infantry battalion brothers dare to fight hard, I am confident that they can block the opponent's attack for more than two days." Zhao Ergou saw that several infantry battalion commanders did not speak, so he stood up and said.

"Do you want to dig trench bunkers for your mountain artillery like Luo Wenyu again?" Liu Lang was cold.

"That's the best, then I can guarantee that in two and a half days, they don't want to advance 200 meters in front of the barracks position." Zhao Ergou confidently took the initiative to extend the time for another half a day.

", the red army doesn't have a single mountain artillery, it's good to have five or six small-caliber mortars, and thirty-six mountain guns and eighty mortars for special mothers? Your artillery battalion is now also a special infantryman, carrying rifles and submachine guns to climb the trenches. Liu Lang scolded angrily, causing Zhao Ergou to shrink his neck.

The faces of several infantry battalion commanders became even more bitter, the meaning of the regimental seat is obvious, pure infantry do it! This is a test of their application of tactics and the willpower of the soldiers. But is this really possible? Without firepower, relying on tactics and the willpower of soldiers, can you withstand so many enemy attacks?

"Report to the chief, if it were me, I would guard the front of the road with the death battalion, the beautiful comb ridge on the west side of the road with bayonets, the pioneer ridge on the east side of the road with the rock battalion, and the first battalion of the battalion commander Chi as the reserve. As long as there is one person left in my death battalion, which has been expanded to 1,500 men, I will not let the enemy move forward, but I can only guarantee to hold out for two days. Zhou Shiyu thought for a while, and when he saw that the others did not speak, he stood up and said.

This is a very normal method of operation for independent regiments, with three battalions of troops and one battalion as a reserve. According to the current topography, there is nothing wrong with using this tactic.

However, the tactics of letting the first battalion, which has always been the fist unit of the independent regiment, as a reserve, are still quite new.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces, including Chi Dakui, the commander of the first battalion, were a little weird.

But Liu Tuanzuo has always been a little dignified, but there is a long-lost smile on his face.

This small platoon commander who once wanted to be a deserter seems to be growing up very quickly!
