426, Cheng Shijie Liang sword
An hour later, the enemy finally appeared in the northeast direction of the third section of the beam, and it looked like there were thousands of people in the black press.
"Good fellows, they have 6 infantry guns in front and 2 field guns in the back!" Guan Xiong held up the binoculars and said: "Second battalion commander, just withdraw the soldiers from their positions, and leave half of the machine gunners to monitor the enemy to prevent the enemy's shelling from increasing unnecessary casualties." ”
Unexpectedly, the enemy on the opposite side did not swarm up, but stopped all three kilometers away, which made Guan Xiong and the others puzzled.
"What did you say?" Li Shouxin was on the Zuihou side of the attacking troops, not far from the two field guns, when he heard the news from the soldiers in front that the enemy's blocking positions were all on the side of the hillside and did not block the main road, and he was immediately taken aback: "You said that the enemy did not set up a blocking position on the main road, but ran to the side?" ”
"Report to the military seat, this is the case! There was no one on the main road, no fortifications, and all the positions were on the south-west halfway up the mountain! ”
Li Shouxin felt incredible: "Damn, Lao Tzu is going to attack Linxi Town, and not this mountain, what does the enemy want to do?" Order the troops to stop advancing! Lead the way ahead, Lao Tzu wants to see what kind of moth it is! ”
After more than 20 years of military career, Li Shouxin is not an idiot. The enemy is so weird, there must be some kind of conspiracy in it. Being able to command a cavalry brigade of seven or eight hundred people, the commander of the enemy is certainly not a fool either, how can it be contrary to military common sense?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
Li Shouxin came to the front of the battle and saw that the matter was exactly the same as what the vanguard of the road exploration in front said, the enemy really let go of the main road and held the mountain beam in the southwest! Moreover, three lines of defense were constructed with high and low combinations, and dozens of light machine guns guarded the mountain beams.
"Come on, send a telegram to Commander Wang in the back, and ask their troops to hurry up!" Li Shouxin looked at the empty road in front of him through the telescope, and the doubts in his heart became heavier and heavier. There is nothing where heavy troops should be deployed, and it is really strange that heavy troops are deployed on the flank mountain beams that have nothing to do with each other.
The Art of War: Fiction is real, and reality is virtual.
Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, and Zhuge Liang used suspicious tactics against him, so Cao Cao was played by "Zhuge Villager" almost every time.
After Liu Bei occupied Chengdu that year, Cao Cao went south to conquer, but in the first battle in Hanzhong, he was beaten by Zhuge Liang's suspicious tactics without the slightest temper, Zuihou gave all the land of Hanzhong to Liu Bei, and left a classic idiom allusion: "Vested Long, He Wangshu!" Thus enriching the dictionary of Chinese idioms: Delong Wangshu!
Now there is not even a ghost on the road, this is too empty, right? Since the enemy is not worried about problems on the main road, he must be fully prepared. What's the situation in front of the road? Mine? Pit? Or is there some other trick up to it?
But what kind of trap is this?
The more Li Shouxin looked at it, the more puzzled he became: when Lao Tzu listened to the opera, he often talked about the fold of "Ma Tan lost the street pavilion". It is said that Ma Tan did not know the art of war and put his troops on the mountain, but Zuihou was defeated and lost and was cut off by Zhuge Liang.
But is Bai Shujie Ma Tan? The devil believes! Now get out of the way and put your own troops on the mountain, if Bai Shujie doesn't have a conspiracy, then there will be a ghost!
Although Li Shouxin did not have Cao Cao's military and political talents, his suspicious personality was similar to Cao Cao's. In addition, he has been in Vanity Fair for so many years, and he knows the importance of the army. If he loses his own army, it will soon turn into a pile of stinky shit, and no one will be interested in him.
Since the fiasco in Guyuan County, Li Shouxin has been a frightened bird. The fact that a division had collapsed at the touch of a previous and lost more than 500 people made him even more frightened. The more I looked at the strange situation in front of me, the more I felt that it was a big trap, so I began to be suspicious, so I asked Wang Ying in the back to come up and take a look.
What Li Shouxin never expected was that it was precisely because of his confusion that he sent himself and Wang Ying to hell!
In fact, Guan Xiong didn't think about it that much at all, he just wanted to keep the secret of the Stonemason Mountain Fortress in his heart, so he arranged the position according to the combat goal of protecting the Stonemason Mountain Fortress.
It is precisely this unintentional act that made Li Shouxin fall into the mistake of inertial thinking! The so-called "intentionally planting flowers does not send, and there is no intention to plant willows into the shade." ”
While Li Shouxin was waiting for Wang Ying to bring someone over to meet, he kept in a daze. You can wait for anything, but time can't wait!
Li Shouxin's army stood still, but time was passing quickly. In this way, the most advantageous one is Liu Zhiliang, who is urgently dispatched!
Liu Zhiliang led more than 1,000 people from the division headquarters guard battalion and air defense battalion, which were interspersed with the west side of the fortress of Stonemason Mountain.
The goal of his action is very clear, that is, to suddenly appear in the north of the Jingzigou Fortress and the Stonemason Mountain Fortress, and then flank back and forth, and turn back and stab the enemy's ass!
Although the guard battalion is cavalry, and the air defense battalion is mainly armored vehicles, it takes more than three hours to travel more than 100 miles over a long distance.
If Li Shouxin had been a little more confident, or had been a little more bold, or had simply strictly implemented the combat orders of Lieutenant General Kohei Kashii, directly ignored a battalion deployed by Guan Xiong on top of the three sections, and commanded the large force to rush in the southeast direction, everything would have been different!
It's a pity that there is everything on this shijie, but there is no "if"!
Wang Ying's large army was 30 kilometers away from Li Shouxin, and his task was to respond and cover Li Shouxin if he was pursued by the enemy. Now Li Shouxin asked him to lead the large army to rendezvous, where is such a simple matter!
A large army of thousands of people must be mobilized immediately, and it will be driven out more than 30 kilometers, and it will be impossible in a few hours! Just like this, the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon and almost five o'clock.
According to the order of Lieutenant General Kohei Kashii, an attack on the town of Rinsai must be launched at six o'clock this afternoon. There is now just over an hour left, and there are still nearly forty kilometers to go from the town of Linxi.
At around 5:20, Wang Ying finally arrived at Li Shouxin's temporary headquarters, and immediately said unhappily: "Commander Li, what do you mean?" Commander Kohei Kashii has already made it clear that you are the main attacker, and I will deal with it later. Now pull me up, what the hell do you want? Do you want to disobey the orders of the anti-Japanese himself? ”
"Commander Wang, don't worry, take a closer look at the situation ahead!" Li Shouxin handed the telescope in his hand to Wang Ying: "Look at it, is there such a war?" Since the enemy has discovered us, but has placed his forces in unrelated places, you say, what should we do? ”
Wang Ying took the telescope and looked at it, and was suddenly a little surprised: "No, how can this be?" Lao Tzu has been fighting from the beginning of the Central Plains War to the present, and he has seen any battles, how can there be such an arrangement? ”
"So, I'm not sure if it's weishenme, so I asked you to come over to the staff officer." Li Shouxin said with some hesitation: "How about letting your people block this mountain beam, how about I lead a large army to Linxi Town?" ”
"Okay!" Wang Ying said without looking back: "You can go with confidence, I'll just watch here!" His grandmother's, Lao Tzu sent a battalion to guard at the foot of the mountain. As long as they don't attack, their light machine guns won't be of any use! ”
"It's a deal!" Li Shouxin clapped his hands, and his herald immediately ran over to wait for the order.
"Order the cavalry regiment of the 2nd Division to set off immediately, advance at full speed, and be sure to rush to the town of Linxi to launch an attack before six o'clock! The follow-up troops ran forward according to the original marching sequence! ”
Li Shouxin's second division, that is, the two battalions of the original cavalry regiment, had more than 600 people. The so-called cavalry regiment, that is, about 300 people. After receiving the order, they all immediately mounted their horses and rushed out in the southeast direction.
The main road to the town of Linxi is a small river, and there is a forest two kilometers ahead. As soon as the "cavalry regiment" of more than 300 men approached the grove, a dense barrage of machine-gun bullets came over.
Then more than 700 horses rushed out of the woods and surrounded the more than 300 people. With a machine gun sweeping, all of them were immediately reimbursed!
It was none other than the third battalion released by Guan Xiong. Their mission was to strike at the enemy's flank when the enemy attacked the second battalion, so they were ambushed in the grove. Unexpectedly, the enemy did not attack the second battalion at all, but went straight down the main road!
The enemy had stayed in this place for more than two hours and there was no hostile situation, so the more than 300 cavalry did not expect to be ambushed after walking less than two kilometers. One was caught off guard and was killed by more than seventy machine guns!
As soon as the gunshots rang out here, Li Shouxin and Wang Ying in the back knew that it was bad: "There is indeed an ambush ahead!" ”
Strangely, after killing more than 300 of his own cavalry, the enemy in front retreated into the woods and did not rush over. In other words, the enemy on the opposite side is to block the attack and prevent others from passing.
"Prepare the artillery, bombard the woods opposite to Lao Tzu and drive the enemy out!"
Li Shouxin finally remembered that he still had two field cannons, and now was the time to play a role.
As soon as Li Shouxin's words fell, the howling sound of the cannonballs piercing the sky had already reached everyone's ears!
That's too fast, isn't it? Could it be that these eight calves have changed their temperament? Li Shouxin didn't expect the cannon to be able to fire so quickly, which was too unexpected!
Before Li Shouxin could react, Wang Yingsheng's hoarse call had already come from behind: "Disperse, disperse!" Lie down, all for Lao Tzu! ”
Boom-boom-boom!
More than a dozen shells had already exploded in the crowd, and Li Shouxin realized that it was not his own artillery that opened fire, but the enemy bombarded his own shells!
At this time, Li Shouxin's ears were full of piercing whistling sounds of "whoosh" and "whoosh"!
Rapid-fire guns! It's the sound of rapid-fire cannon shells flying!
Immediately, a series of firecracker-like explosions sounded around Li Shouxin, and the entire army was suddenly blown apart, followed by people screaming and neighing!
After all, Li Shouxin has been in the army for many years, and he is also the commander of the independent cavalry regiment of the Northeast Army, which has the strongest combat effectiveness in the domestic army at that time, and he still has control over the troops, and at the same time, he is also well-informed about emergencies on the battlefield.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
