Chapter 82: The Battle of Yulin V

The sky was getting darker and darker, only the crooked lower quarter moon and faint starlight, and the tens of thousands of horses of the Northwest Field Army suddenly lost their voice, and the enemy in Yulin City was surprised, why didn't the communist army attack? There was a strange silence on the battlefield where the fighting was raging, with only the occasional sporadic sound of gunfire.

The battlefield that was still fiercely exchanged just now was suddenly as quiet as death, and this kind of silence made people feel even more terrifying, Li Yong told the soldiers to calm down, the enemy can't react best, let's stay here for four hours and then retreat, it will save trouble.

But the enemy is not stupid, after two hours, the gate of Yulin City opened again, and there was a battalion of hundreds of Kuomintang soldiers quietly touched up, this is the first time since the Northwest Field Army attacked Yulin, the enemy counterattacked at night, it seems that the defenders in the city are also vaguely aware of something.

Li Yong took Li Yuming and several people from the proficient squad to run back and forth in the trenches, telling the soldiers to steady, this was a tentative attack of the enemy, no fire was allowed without an order, and the enemy got closer and closer, from four hundred meters to three hundred meters to two hundred meters, and then to one hundred meters.

Talking to each other, he said: "Damn, it seems that these eight roads are really running, and what our commander said about the 36th Division is coming is true, but it is not easy, Lao Tzu can't die this time." ”

Another soldier also said: "But isn't it, these gangs are really ruthless, and they dare to set up ladders to climb such a high city wall, if I change it, let alone climb, I will be dizzy when I look at it." ”

The more the Kuomintang soldiers walked forward, the more relieved they became, and when they reached about 50 meters away from the trenches defended by the special service battalion, they completely relaxed, put back the big guns they were holding in their hands, and some of them even lit cigarettes and walked forward humming a small tune.

The eight roads have run away, and the outside of the city has become our world again, so I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, "Speaking of that Wang Laosan, the two of them smoke a lot, and they have no sons in their lives, only one female Chanjuan, and only one female Chanjuan." ’

The shell gun in Li Yong's hand never sounded, and the soldiers' anxious palms were sweating, and finally this group of enemies was only more than 20 meters away from the position of the special service battalion, and the enemy who was humming a minor tune suddenly saw the soldiers of the special service battalion staring at them coldly with various weapons in the faint moonlight, and turned around and ran away after being in a daze for a while.

But it was too late to run, in Li Yong's order, all kinds of weapons of the special service battalion opened fire at the same time, the firepower of the special service battalion was too fierce, especially Wei Gang's machine gun platoon, this was the first salvo of the machine gun platoon after the reorganization of the special service battalion, the twelve Makqin heavy machine guns fired a salvo at close range was too terrifying, a string of bullets swept over like a violent wind, dozens of enemies who fell at the back were interrupted by dense firepower, and it was difficult to retreat from a string of bullets on the body, and from time to time Kuomintang soldiers were sent out a few meters away, The screams of the soldiers before they died continued one after another, and in just a few minutes, none of the hundreds of people were alive.

The power of the twelve Makqin at a distance of dozens of meters even the soldiers of the special service battalion looked a little numb, this guy is really powerful, worthy of Wei Gang's kid who claims to be the main platoon in the battalion at every turn, and also said everywhere: "Don't look at Lao Tzu is the platoon commander, what's wrong with the platoon commander, he is better than the company commander of other troops." "What this kid Wei Gang said really makes a little sense.

This son confused the enemy in Yulin City, and the commander of the 22nd Army kept pondering in the command headquarters, whether this communist army withdrew or not? Didn't the 36th Division say that they were about to arrive, why didn't the communist army withdraw yet, weren't they afraid of being surrounded by our 22nd Army and the 36th Division?

Judging by this firepower, it must be that the large forces of the communist army are still outside the city, why are these eight roads still not moving? Why hasn't it moved yet? It will only depend on the situation and wait for dawn.

Seeing that the enemy who was trying to attack had been destroyed, Li Yong ordered his troops to retreat as soon as possible, and let the enemy ponder it, and the longer the time to ponder, the better.

Instructor Wang Chengde asked: "Dayong, didn't the regiment commander ask us to hold on for four hours, it's just been more than two hours, can we do it?" ”

Li Yong replied: "Lao Wang, you heard it wrong, the regiment commander asked us to buy at least four hours for the main force, didn't say that we have to hold the position, the 36th Division will arrive soon, this is more than 30,000 people, as long as we are touched, our battalion will be finished, we can't run, time must be fought for, but we can't explain our battalion here." ”

He smiled and said to Wang Chengde: "Lao Wang, listen to me, the task must be completed, we can't suffer big losses, and we can't do the business if we lose our old capital." ”

Not long after the special service battalion was withdrawn, the enemy's reorganized 36th Division was fiercely pressed from the northwest direction, and a large force of tens of thousands of people rushed over overwhelmingly, and long-range howitzers bombarded the position from which the special service battalion had just withdrawn, and the smoke and dust on the position were billowing and blazing into the sky, and seeing from a distance that his position just now was blown flat by artillery fire, Wang Chengde was glad in his heart, thanks to the courage to let him withdraw, or it would have been enough.

The enemies at the head of Yulin City jumped and cheered, lit torches everywhere, illuminated the inside and outside of Yulin City, and the gate of Yulin City was opened again, and the black and oppressive enemies poured into the city.

Zhong Song, the lieutenant general and division commander of the 36th Division, came to the military headquarters of the 22nd Army surrounded by everyone, and the commander of the 22nd Army came out with all the generals and colonels, and saw Zhong Song, who got off the jeep, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Zhong Song's hand tightly and said: "Brother, I dare not say thank you for saving my life, I dare not thank you for saving my life, my brother can only say that my brother has worked hard." After speaking, Zhong Song was let into the military headquarters.

Zhong Song: The commander of the 36th Division of the Kuomintang reorganization, a graduate of the first phase of the Whampoa Military Academy, was a classmate of Hu Zongnan, the king of the northwest, and of course a classmate of our General Chen Geng and General Xu Xiangqian.

The reorganized 36th Division is also the main force in the Kuomintang descendants, with three brigades and three regiments in each brigade, all equipped with American-style equipment, and the division is equipped with a howitzer regiment and the brigade is equipped with a howitzer battalion, and all the artillery at these two levels is equipped with large-caliber American-style 105 howitzers.

The 36th Division, with a very fast march, made a long detour from the desert beyond the Great Wall north of Yulin, and quickly plunged into an attack on our besieging troops.

The Northwest Field Army's attack on Yulin and the idea of besieging the city to send reinforcements lost its fighters because of the rapid maneuver and surprise actions of the 36th Division.

Up to now, the Northwest Field Army's attack on Yulin has officially ended, and the troops have paid a heavy price, but they have not achieved the expected results, and the entire Northwest War Situation has fallen into an extremely unfavorable situation, and the Field Army and the entire Northwest Bureau have been compressed in a small area, leaving less and less room for maneuver.

The reason for the failure of the Northwest Field Army's attack on Yulin was: Yulin City Defense was strong, the defenders resisted stubbornly, and the reinforcements were rapid, while our attack troops lacked weapons and firepower to attack, and the time for the attack was not sufficient. In addition, the confidence and speed of the Kuomintang's 36th Division in reinforcing Yulin were insufficient, and they subjectively exaggerated the contradictions between the various Kuomintang units, believing that the 36th Division, which was a descendant of the Kuomintang, might not be able to work for the miscellaneous 22nd Army, and at the same time the reinforcements were insufficient.

At this time, Zhong Song, the commander of the 36th Division, sat on a chair with a big coat and lazily said to a cadre of the 22nd Army: "This is nothing, you and I are listening to the general and Chief Hu, how can I sit idly by and watch the friendly army in trouble?" ”

After taking a sip of the tea that was served, Zhong Song turned around and said to one of his officers: "Your brigade should not enter the city, chase down the Xianyu Highway, attack and advance, entangled the communist army as much as possible, and contact me in time if there is any situation." The officer agreed, turned and walked out.

The commander of the 22nd Army, XXX, hurriedly said: "Brother, you can't be careless, you can't be careless, the communist army is very cunning, will it be dangerous for a brigade of brothers to chase after you?" ”

Zhong Song looked at xxx: "Commander X, don't worry, one of my brigades has more than 9,000 people, and it is well-equipped, and the communist army wants to destroy them with just a few bad guns and guns in their hands?" There is not even a gate, as long as they find the communist army and entangle them, the main force of our division plus the troops of your 22nd Army, the commander of the X, can completely wipe them out. ”

"It is said that the communist army is out of nowhere, what is out of nowhere, this is all said by some timid people, the so-called gods are not that we can't bite, if we can bite the communist army, why are they ghostly, my 36th division has not heard the wind and fled as soon as the communist army came, and the communist army blocking force outside the city just now was defeated by our department as soon as it came into contact."

Looking at the officers of the 36th Division who were arrogant, Deng XX's 22nd Army and others could only nod yes.

The avant-garde brigade of the 36th Division did not enter the city, but made a circle under the city and chased it down directly along the Xianyu Highway.

Li Yong and the special battalion also retreated south along the Xianyu Highway, because they were all horse teams and the speed was very fast, Li Yong asked Zhang Jinsong's reconnaissance platoon to send two squads to reconnoiter the movements of the enemy's 36th Division in the rear, and then send two squads to search and advance in front.

Wang Chengde asked as he walked: "Dayong, where do we retreat?" Li Yong replied: "Withdraw to Sanchawan first, and then give him a guy in the middle of Sanchawan and Fort Guide, if you don't hurt them, this group of enemies will be in hot pursuit." ”

Here I want to discuss with book friends Mr. Peng, Mr. Peng has fought countless vicious battles in his life, of course, there are defeats like the Battle of Yulin, but he has also fought many great battles, such as Qinghuatou, Panlong Town, Yangma River, etc., these battles are not the focus of this book, so they are only mentioned slightly.

In addition, I would like to say a little personal opinion on the Hundred Regiments War, and later generations of people who studied the history of the Party believed that the Hundred Regiments War had a good side, but it also exposed the strength of the Eighth Route Army in advance, so that the Japanese army invading China put all its energy on the first people, and launched a crazy sweep of the base area, and the army and people in the base area suffered heavy losses, but if we look at it from another angle, from the perspective of the whole nation's War of Resistance, what is wrong with the Hundred Regiments War?

A little personal opinion is for reference only. Finally, I want to thank the heartbroken love and the support of the book friends who display the number number.,The update of 3,000 words can still be dealt with.,No more, it's not good.,Ha.。
