The ferocious fire of the machine gun battalion made the bandits lose the confidence to continue attacking the ranch, although the number was still the majority, they didn't want to fight, their lives were gone, and they wanted any mother-in-law.

If the women want to follow the PLA, let them follow, anyway, they have been in the hands of the communist army for a while, and they have done what they should do.

The front-line commanders are all very experienced veterans, such as Li Jiangguo, Ma Quanyou, and others, and the slightest disturbance on the battlefield cannot be concealed from their eyes.

"Brigade commander, brigade commander, the situation has changed, the bandits are going to run."

If you can't beat it, you can run? Take our Duli Brigade as an ordinary bandit suppression unit? Li Yongxin said, Usman, you have miscalculated, and then let you see the power of the PLA mechanized troops.

"Jiang Tiexiong, Li Yuming, how is your battalion preparing?"

In addition to the hidden machine gun battalion and the seconded artillery battalion, Li Yong also had a heavy firepower strike unit in his hands, and it was also the tank battalion that was the most effective unit against the cavalry

"The tank battalion is ready, please instruct the chief." Battalion commander Jiang Tiexiong replied in a deep voice.

"Brigade commander, you just give the order, the oil is full, the machine has been overhauled, and the engine has been ignited." This is the voice of instructor Li Yuming.

For a long time, Li Yong has been thinking about how to eat the Usman bandits, and all the focus of his work is also inclined to this aspect, including the capture of Iliel alive in Yiwu.

The Xinjiāng bandits have two major characteristics, one is that they run fast, and the other is that they are very scattered, and the PLA's bandit suppression unit is like a very slow fist, although the strength is great, but it is always useless, every time it is half a beat slow, and the anti-aircraft guns fight mosquitoes, and they can't do it hard.

Characteristics against bandits. The higher-level organs of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) believe that the pursuit and suppression units must start from two aspects in order to achieve good results.

First, find a way to concentrate the bandits, and second, try to increase the speed of maneuver of the fighters.

After a period of hard work, the first goal of the pursuit and suppression troops was achieved, and more than 100,000 bandits gathered together, eliminated the 7th Cavalry Division, and entrenched themselves in Yiwu. Capturing Iriel alive has a reason to lure bandits out, to put it bluntly, this is all in the layout, and it is a big game.

Limited to current conditions. The second goal is difficult to achieve, and both the Corps and the Xinjiāng Military Region are working hard. It's just a matter of making up two dissatisfied cavalry regiments.

Except for these two regiments. There is only one Duli Brigade that can run fast.

Whether in terms of personnel composition or weapons and equipment, the Duli Brigade is much stronger than the two Erzi Cavalry Regiments, and the combat effectiveness is not at the same level, so there is the behavior of the superiors assigning these two regiments to the Duli Brigade when they were in Yiwu, which means that the superiors pinned most of their hopes on the Duli Brigade. Including Commander Wang, although he didn't say it explicitly, the matter was there.

The expectations of the superiors and the chief made Li Yong feel the pressure, and the first stage of the Yiwu battle was good. The siege was successfully lifted, the 7th Cavalry Division was eliminated, and Iril was captured alive, but the second stage of the battle was unsuccessful, and the Duli Brigade did not complete the tasks assigned by its superiors and did not entangle the Usman bandits, causing the pursuing troops who had come from a long journey to pounce.

In the post-war summary, the superiors did not investigate the fault of the Duli Brigade, and Commander Wang also took the responsibility on himself, saying that he did not catch the bandits because he was negligent in command and did not think about it thoroughly, and he also held a celebration meeting for the Duli Brigade in Yiwu.

What did the superiors do this for, in order not to put too much pressure on the Duli Brigade so that they could travel lightly, but as the commander of the front-line combat unit, Li Yong, the commander of the First Brigade, had to consider these issues, he was responsible for his superiors, for the chief, for the people of Xinjiāng, and for the honor of the Duli Brigade.

After the celebration meeting was over, Li Yong also went to the former enemy headquarters of Commander Luo Yuanfa and Chief of Staff Chen Haihan to apologize to the two chiefs.

This is not a joke, in order to be able to reach Yiwu as much as possible, the bandit suppression troops did their best, marching dozens of kilometers on foot every day, hundreds of soldiers with crutches and legs, and it took a lot of effort to catch a single bandit, and everyone had grievances.

Commander Luo and Chief of Staff Chen were magnanimous and did not blame anything, and Li Yong also expressed to the two leaders that they must plan well in the next stage of the operation and strive to fight a beautiful war of annihilation.

The big words are out, the determination is also expressed, the task must be completed, surround 60,000 or 70,000 bandits with more than 10,000 people, and fight a war of annihilation, this difficulty is not small, bandits are also people, can't they run if they can't be defeated?

Later, after learning about the bandits' old nest, Hongliuxia, the Duli Brigade quickly formulated a battle plan to lure the enemy into depth, and the plan was implemented in three steps.

First, control the Hongliuxia Ranch and strictly prevent news leakage. Second, destroy the Usman elite and defeat the bandits' morale. Third, when the bandit army is in turmoil, the whole army will attack, use superior weapons and equipment to divide and encircle the enemy, and finally eat it completely.

So far, the first two objectives have been achieved, the Duli Brigade completely controlled the Hongliuxia Ranch, and used the method of showing weakness to the enemy, using superior firepower to kill thousands of elite Usman, and then there is the last link, and the most critical link, to divide and encircle the bandits.

The bandits' morale is in turmoil, and there are signs of rout, this is an excellent opportunity for the troops to attack, if this opportunity cannot be seized, what do you want Li Yong, the commander of the Duli brigade, to do, in the words that Commander Wang often said, it is better to go home and pick up the child.

"Order the whole brigade to attack immediately and tell the comrades, we must let the bandits know what is called the trump card of the People's Liberation Army, start." Brigade Commander Li Yong's command sounded simultaneously in all the walkie-talkies of the brigade.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, three red flares rose into the sky, and then three more, a total of nine red flares hung high in the sky like nine small lanterns.

This is the general attack signal of the DULI Brigade of the People's Liberation Army, nine red signal flares are in the sky, and the 10,000 people of the whole brigade must all attack, including the large baggage battalion of more than 2,000 people, as well as the guards, engineers, repairs, communications, and other troops directly under the brigade headquarters.

Just as Usman was commanding the bandit team to change the rear team into the front team, and when the whole army retreated, the People's Liberation Army guarding the Hongliuxia Ranch launched an attack, first raining small shells, then a tidal wave of shouts, and then what was the next sound, it was the roar of the motor of the armored unit that the bandits had once understood, and when they thought of it when they dreamed, they would tremble.

Li Yong's consistent method is that before the troops attack, they must use artillery torches to plow the area to be attacked, so as to create conditions for the attacking troops, but it is a pity that Gao Xiang's artillery was borrowed, but the combat ideology of the PLA troops is that they will fight whatever kind of equipment they have, and if they have the conditions, they must go on the ground, and if they do not have the large-caliber artillery of the Gao Xiang Artillery Battalion, they will use mortars, and do the same.

The small shells of "Boom, Boom, Boom" are like heavy rain, and the density of shells is terrifying, and there are more than 100 small mortars that have been concentrated, which is simply a number that makes people unable to mention the psychology of resistance, and the dense barrels of cannons are erected on the position, let alone fire, and it is scary to look at.

Li Yong ordered the artillery to use all the family resources, and after this battle is fought, our Duli Brigade will have a short period of rest and recuperation, and the ammunition will be replenished.

More than 100 small mortars opened fire at the same time, and the consumption of shells was unimaginable, but fortunately, the baggage battalion in the brigade was powerful enough, and the shells could still support it.

There are a lot of 1,000 shells, and it takes a lot of space to transport them by car, but under Duli's concentrated fire, more than 100 mortars are only 10 rounds each, and they are out without a fart, and if the logistics support is not good, there is no way to fight this battle.

From the day the unit was founded, Li Yong was most concerned about the logistical support of the troops, and the brigade set up a baggage battalion and the battalion set up a baggage platoon, and they were all large establishments, plus the ammunition carried by the artillerymen themselves, which was equivalent to using a three-tier system to provide logistical support for the troops.

A baggage battalion of more than 2,000 people, plus a large number of trucks, is actually equivalent to a motor transport regiment for the front-line combat units of the Duli Brigade, which allows the various combat operations of the Duli Brigade to be fully guaranteed.

Sixty or seventy thousand bandits were stunned, because let alone looking, they couldn't even imagine that there was such a density of firepower, and the rainless spots that fell from the sky were cannonballs.

After thousands of shells were dried, the entire bandit brigade completely collapsed, and the horses and men scattered and fled, and when they ran, they had to observe whether there were shells falling on their heads.

The terrain around the Hongliuxia Ranch is flat, which is very suitable for the cavalry to play, but everything must be relatively viewed, the terrain is conducive to cavalry combat, but it is a tragedy when it is hit by superior artillery fire, and the bandits cannot find a place to hide and avoid artillery fire, so they have to run around on the war horse when they have no way, so that the whole team is completely chaotic.

No matter how many people there are in the mess of the formation and organization, the general trend is gone, Usman's lips trembled, and at this time, the order he shouted was not as good as a dog farting. (To be continued......)
