Jagged Warlord

Chen Guangyuan pointed his finger on the sand table and said: "There are two stone bridges in Yangzhuang and Qinzhuang beside the Tuhai River, which are the only passages other than the railway bridge. We should guard these two bridges, or blow them up. it!"

Qu Tongfeng sneered, and said: "Good idea, Captain Chen, as I said just now, I am a person who is good at doing good, so I will leave this matter to Leader Chen to take full responsibility!"

Chen Guangyuan was embarrassed when he heard this, because the two positions he pointed out were protruding from the defense line of the Beiyang Army. Once he was stationed there, it would be like sending himself to the SS and sending him to the opponent's gunpoint.

"What?" Qu Tongfeng sat in front of the battle sand table, with Erlang's legs crossed, as if he had nothing to do with himself, "Head Chen, you are scared!"

Chen Guangyuan's lips moved, but he didn't say anything after all, "I'm just a staff adjutant, how can I dictate the battle plan made by Master Qu, I think it's better to blow up these two bridges!"

Qu Tongfeng laughed and said, "It's blown up, so how can I go south? Is it possible to leave all the places south of the Tuhai River to the SS!"

Chen Guangyuan felt that what he said now would be picked on by Qu Tongfeng, so he could only give up, "Since the teacher has a comprehensive plan, I won't add anything to the snake!"

Qu Tongfeng turned his gaze to the map hanging on the wall. Qu Tongfeng stood up and walked forward, and soon found a location called Yancheng Town on the big map.

Qu Tongfeng tapped the knuckles of his fingers on the map twice, and said in a deep voice, "Chen Guangyuan, head of the model regiment, obeyed the order and led the first artillery battalion and cavalry company of the model regiment to occupy Yancheng Town within three days. Waiting for the arrival of Jin Yunpeng's Fifth Division and Rehe Yijun in Wuding, no matter how much pressure the SS forces bear, they are not allowed to retreat past Zhao Niuhe's line!"

"Teacher Qu, you~~" Chen Guangyuan was furious, but he still called Qu Tongfeng the teacher

Qu Tongfengman didn't care, and said, "Why, Commander Chen, you are my staff officer, don't you want to help me share my worries!"

Chen Guangyuan frowned angrily, and replied as calmly as possible: "I am the chief of staff, and I am helping the division commander to make suggestions, not to die, and every officer and soldier in the model regiment is one in a hundred. They are the future pillars of the army, aren't they? Ordinary soldiers, let alone cannon fodder!"

Qu Tongfeng smiled and said: "It's because I know that the model group is not an ordinary person, so I entrust you with the important task of taking care of it!"

"Qu Tongfeng~" Chen Guangyuan stretched out his finger and nodded Qu Tongfeng, "Okay, let's wait and see." After finishing speaking, Chen Guangyuan walked out of the tent without looking back.

Although Chen Guangyuan had a million dislikes in his heart, he could only follow Qu Tongfeng's instructions to deploy defenses in Yancheng Town.

Yancheng Town is one of the ancient towns in Shandong. Yancheng is located in an important point and is the only way from Jinan to Beijing. There have been post stations in the past dynasties, named Yancheng Post. In the early Qing Dynasty, there were 70 post horses. More than 180 people. In 1912, the Jinpu Railway was completed, and a station was set up in Yancheng Town. Yancheng Town belongs to the alluvial plain of the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and the terrain in the territory decreases from southwest to northeast.

Chen Guangyuan chose his position on a condescending high ground, from here he could overlook the river surface of the Qinjia Village section of the Zhaoniu River! !The Qinjiacun section of the river is the narrowest section of the Zhaoniu River.

After all, the model regiment is a model regiment, and the lowest rank is also a non-commissioned officer. They are meticulous in building the trenches and digging the trenches, especially the anti-blasting holes. Chen Guangyuan built the working patterns according to the routine. This is a very well-regulated way of operation. The location is built on the ridgeline of the hillside platform, so that the dynamics of the attacking side can be seen at a glance, and it is also convenient for condescending firepower.

With a straight face, Chen Guangyuan patrolled back and forth along the trenches, and from time to time inserted a bayonet into the soil to check.

woo~~

boom boom boom

Without warning, a few shells landed near the Model Regiment's position.

"Spread out~ hide." Chen Guangyuan hurriedly leaned on the side of the trench, but the shell only exploded near the position of the Model Regiment and did not hurt anyone.

"Where did the shells come from?" Chen Guangyuan was very surprised. He picked up the binoculars and looked out through the observation port on the trench. "What." Chen Guangyuan found many heavily armed soldiers in the small woods by the Zhao Niu River.

"What is the reconnaissance squad doing? Why did the scouts not report when the enemy was so close?" Chen Guangyuan shouted, "I'm going to shoot the squad leader of that reconnaissance squad!"

A battalion commander on the side said: "Regiment commander, the reconnaissance team sent out has never returned!"

"What." Chen Guangyuan was taken aback, "Order the artillery battalion to fire at the grove!"

Chen Guangyuan hoped that the artillery battalion would give the enemy in the grove a disarm. There was no response from the artillery position, but the artillery shells from the opposite enemy position fired first.

Four kilometers away from Zhao Niuhe's position, the SS artillery position seemed to be blown by a strong wind. From the 75mm mountain gun to the 120mm howitzer and the regiment's 120mm mortar, they all fired at the model regiment's position at the maximum rate of fire. The shells poured down, and the moment the shells hit the ground, the whole earth began to tremble.

In the sky, the sharpest flying sound is the screaming sound of field mountain artillery shells across the sky, the dull flying sound is the heavy grenade fired by the large-caliber howitzer, and the dull and slow flying sound is the mortar shell. The regiment was not prepared enough, and the first round of shelling caused huge casualties to the model regiment.

Ten minutes of bombardment was like ten years to the model regiment.

Finally, the shelling stopped, and Chen Guangyuan got out of the anti-battery hole, his head and face covered with mud, "Go ~ go and notify the artillery, and immediately fire back." Chen Guangyuan hurriedly threw himself on the wall of the trench, and looked out through the observation port.

Before the gunfire smoke dissipated, the infantry of the SS brigade in black uniforms rushed towards the high ground. They were in groups of twos and threes. From a distance, the team looked like a layer of fish scales, and the ones in front kept running. Those in the front and those in the back followed closely behind. They just trotted and didn't shoot.

boom boom boom

The artillery of the Beiyang Army finally fired, but it was intermittent like Lei Gong sneezed. Although it caused a little casualties to the attacking SS, it did not block it at all.

"Damn it, they must have done it on purpose." Chen Guangyuan scolded, "Qu Tongfeng's soldiers are as virtuous as Qu Tongfeng!"

"Fire." The battalion, company, and platoon leaders of the Model Regiment began to direct the soldiers to shoot. The remaining heavy machine guns and rifles on the Model Regiment's position began to fire together. Thousands of bullets roared past Zhao Niu. On the surface of the river, the air waves caused ripples on the surface of the river. However, the SS's charge formation was very scattered, and they immediately scattered and fell down, borrowing the terrain and features to move forward continuously,
