Chairman Chang Kaishen personally held a press conference to announce this great news!Now, there should be no problem.

He had already announced it last night, but he called the reporters again early this morning. Sensitive reporters from various parties have already sniffed out something: he must have caught a more famous big shot again!

Ta Kung Pao reporter: "Do you know? I heard that just now, they arrested that person!"

A tabloid reporter asked puzzledly, "Which person?"

"Li Runshi! The leader of the Communist Party! The one whose head is worth 20 yuan!"

"Really? Your "Ta Kung Pao", as far as I remember, the number of times he was killed in the newspaper has exceeded ten times!"

"This time it is captured alive, captured alive, not shot to death! It is alive, and it was always dead before! The dead will make mistakes, but the living should not be wrong again!"

"Wu Chengren did it again? Is he going to be promoted again this time? Almost all the high-ranking members of the Communist Party were defeated by him. This is comparable to Wen Zhenggong's great achievement!"

"Wu Hao, Li Runshi has been caught, is it just Zhu who is missing now? It seems that the Communist Party is really exhausted!"

The whispering reporters muttered, suddenly there was some small commotion at the scene, and it turned out that a big shot had appeared.

First there was a group of guards, then they saw Chen Bulei, the chairman's secretary, and then the reporters saw the energetic Chairman Chang Kaishen coming out of the back hall with a face full of excitement.

First, Chen Bulei appeared on the stage and said a few words on the scene: the general idea is that the national army has won a major victory in the northern Sichuan battlefield, and the chairman of the committee is going to make a speech.

Then, under the flashing lights of countless spotlights, Chang Kaishen made his debut, and the excitement on his face couldn't be concealed.

Last night, he received a report from the front: Wu Hao was captured alive!

During breakfast this morning, I got more good news: Li Runshi was also arrested!Among the three bandit leaders, Zhu De is now alone.

Excited, he decided to announce to the world that the countdown to the "destruction of the communist bandits" had begun at the ten o'clock press conference after repeated confirmation via telegram.

"Everyone present here, I want to tell you a piece of great news!"

****

At 8:10 a.m. on August 10th, the original first brigade resident sixty miles southwest of Baozuo

"What? A large number of Communist bandits have appeared in the southeast of Songpan! When did it happen, and why did you not report it until now?"

As the commander of the first division, he naturally has his subordinates to do the work.Last night, when the three brigades shouted the slogan "Catch Zhu Zhu Mao Mao" and rushed to the seat to "take" the credit, Chief Hu Zongnan sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and led his guard battalion to "wait for the good news" at the station.

He had just finished breakfast, and immediately received an urgent telegram at this time. He received the telegram and looked at it, and was immediately shocked.

The content of the telegram was sent by the Songpan garrison.

It turned out that just a few hours ago, a Tibetan cavalry patrolling in the grassland area southeast of Songpan Town suddenly encountered a large number of Red Army vanguard troops advancing from the south to the north.

"Bring a map!"

Facing the map, Hu Zongnan was taken aback when he saw the place where the Communist bandits were encountered. It was less than ten miles away from where Songpan Town was located... Judging from the time lag of the information, Hu Zongnan could imagine that when he received this telegram, Songpan At the headquarters, there is likely to be a war already.

His adjutant whispered authentically:

"Master, don't worry, this should just be the last madness of the camouflaged troops left by the communists in Songpan..."

"Well, it should be like this, it should be like this..."

Hu Zongnan's face was pale, and he was mumbling, but his voice became lower and lower.

A few seconds later, his body gave a quick jolt, and suddenly understood something, he slammed the table hard, and then yelled frantically:

"No! Wu Chengren, that idiot, won the defense and defeated the Communist bandits, but with his thousands of people, how could he have the guts to chase after the Communist bandits overnight with his broken guts in Fujian! "

At this time, Hu Zongnan's eyes were straightened, and the corners of his mouth were trembling.

"Those telegrams, those victory telegrams, everything is wrong!"

At this time, his eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his face burst out, and he yelled at the adjutant:

"Tell them to come back! The second brigade, the independent brigade, and the supplementary brigade, all come back to me! Send the report immediately! Hurry up!"

His adjutant ran out in a hurry, but bumped into people who were also rushing at the door.

"Master's seat, Brigadier Huang (Second Brigade) and Brigadier Peng (Independent Brigade) sent urgent calls. They were attacked violently by the Communist bandits! The bandit army is extremely ferocious! Ask for support..."

"What about the supplementary brigade? What's the situation at Liao Ang's place?"

"could not be reached!"

Hu Zongnan's mouth was trembling, and he sat down on the seat in a daze.

It's over, it's over, it's all over, my Invincible First Division is completely over!

Chapter 71 Destruction

Yesterday, Huang Jie, the brigade commander of the second brigade, "comforted" Hu Zongnan, "Even if there are [-] pigs, it is impossible for the bandits to catch them all in two hours."

In actual combat, it took the Red Army three hours to capture all the "five thousand pigs" of the first brigade, and two hours to capture the "pig head" Li Tiejun.

But the next day, Huang Jie easily broke his record.

Huang Jie, who rushed to Baozuo, the Hokkien of the 49th Division and the first brigade "Li Caobao" to grab the credit, was at the forefront among the three brigades.

In order to completely annihilate Hu Zongnan's first division, the Red Army gathered almost all the most capable main forces to participate in this encirclement and annihilation operation.

And after the three "big supplements" of the garrison, the 49th division, and the first brigade, the collective weapons of the various Red Army units participating in the war have been upgraded. Not to mention tens of thousands of guns have been added out of thin air, and more than ten new artillery pieces have been captured. It is very abundant.

"Never have there been such rich battles, and never have there been such easy and comfortable battles."

This is the evaluation of all the Red Army soldiers who participated in the war before and after the war.

In the terrain of northern Sichuan, the mountain road has nine bends and eighteen bends, which is close in sight but far away in the sky.Last night, in order to claim credit, the three brigades of the First Division marched overnight. More than 1 people lit torches and pulled out a red fire dragon visible ten miles away on the mountain road in northern Sichuan.

"Anyone with eyes knows where they go!"

They were more reckless than Li Tiejun, thinking that the overall situation was settled, and they joined the war entirely with the intention of "taking credit", and they violated all the taboos that the army needs to pay attention to when marching in the mountains.

When this group of people marched overnight with torches without sleep, the commanders and division commanders of the main force of the Red Army watched them go straight into the ambush circle with binoculars on the hills twenty miles away (on the map). , and at the same time tell the Red Army soldiers below to sleep well, recharge their batteries, and wait for work with leisure.

Hu Zongnan's three brigades were exhausted after a one-night "marathon" march. After dawn, they finally stopped to rest and have breakfast. A telegram from the 49th Division over there sent a telegram to "capture Li Runshi alive" and learned that "the 20 people walking Dayang was robbed again by the Hokkien." Huang Jie, who was eager to grab the credit, desperately urged the officers and soldiers of the second brigade who were half dead from exhaustion to set off again.

At this time, because of his eagerness for success, he erupted the characteristics of the "Wolf of the Wind". Within an hour and a half, he pulled the distance between the second brigade and the two friendly troops to three miles away, and rushed into the ambush circle first.

In order to wrap all three brigades of the first division into dumplings as much as possible.At that time, Xu Shuai, the commander-in-chief of the enemy, deliberately let the vanguard of the second brigade out of the ambush circle before ordering a full-scale general attack.

Huang Jie, who was anxious to "grab credit" at that time, happened to be in the vanguard, in the first battalion of the first regiment of the second brigade, and was lucky to "rush" outside the ambush circle in the valley.

When he was ambushed, all his officers and soldiers were already out of breath, staggering and about to fall to the ground.

Then, several cannons fired, and countless Red Army soldiers rushed out from all directions, bullets rained down...

The ambush script was similar to the one used to annihilate the first brigade: an ambush was set up in the valley, and "earth explosives" made of foreign dung were buried in all the small highlands and hills in the valley that were conducive to the defense of the officers and soldiers of the second brigade.After a huge explosion knocked the second brigade dizzy up and down, they took up positions in all directions and launched a full-scale attack.The observation post located on a high place reported the coordinates, guiding the artillery to destroy the resistance of the enemy's "established system" everywhere...

As for Huang Jie who was "luckily" let go, his fate was even worse than that of Li Tiejun.

He was outside the ambush circle and wanted to turn around to support friendly forces.As a result, a 21st-century infantry tank was deployed at Taniguchi at that time, waiting for a long time...

When Huang Jie hurriedly reported the situation to Hu Zongnan and called for help, the assault troops of the First Army, under the cover of tanks, directly charged at the first battalion where Huang Jie's brigade headquarters was located, and staged the "bicycle attack" for the third time. Peerless"!

"Let's charge, Steel Tank!"

Huang Ke, who was sitting in the car, yelled incomparably in the communicator, and his voice resounded throughout the battlefield through the car speaker.

"The armored car, the armored car has appeared!"

"An invulnerable monster!"

Compared with Li Tiejun's panicked performance in the telegram yesterday, Huang Jie's performance was no better than him.The tactics used in the encirclement and annihilation of the 49th Division were ordinary. Elena drove an M2A3 tank and rode a thousand. Under the radio guidance of the observation post, she directly and unreasonably rushed towards the opponent's camp. rush to the place with the most people.

"Turn right, turn right! Go right there!"

Through the commander's periscope, the temporary commander Ye Shuai excitedly directed Elena's car to drive wildly across the temporary position of the brigade headquarters of the second brigade.

For a battalion under raid, how big can its temporary defensive position be?

Having already had two experience in "Wu Shuang" battles, during this raid, Eileen knew how to "drive" without being instructed.

It is to bully you that you have no anti-armor power. The American-made M2A3 tanks directly broke away from the infantry and rushed into the temporary defense line hurriedly built by the first battalion. Arching, like crushing people frantically, drove hundreds of people running around like ducks.The bullets fired from the rear of the car knocked down the white army who dared to resist from time to time.At this time, the car speakers on the car kept playing the sound of "Pay your guns and don't kill them, the Red Army treats prisoners preferentially".

If Ye Shuai, who was the "car captain", was "reluctant to kill horses" and knew that this group of Whampoa alumni had rare goods to live in, and strictly prohibited machine gunners from shooting at "army coats on horseback", it is likely that in the first minute of the war, there was still Huang Jie, who was riding on a horse, would be directly swept down by the M1A2 parallel machine gun.

Within a few minutes, the entire battalion collapsed across the board, and then a large number of soldiers, under the gunpoints of the Red Army who followed up 2 minutes later, lay on the ground in patches and surrendered with their guns raised.

As for Huang Jie, the brigade commander of the second brigade, the officer uniforms worn by him and his subordinates are too conspicuous and easy to be recognized.Only 15 minutes after the start of the battle, M2A3 rushed to the front. With the machine gun pointed at the tip of the nose of the tank, he raised his hands together with a group of brigade staff, regimental commander and battalion commander. The speed of his surrender was not only It surpassed Li Tiejun and also surpassed most of the soldiers in the [-]st Battalion of the [-]st Regiment of the [-]nd Brigade.

It took the Red Army two hours to capture the "pig head" Li Tiejun of the first brigade, but only 15 minutes to capture him.And the destruction of the second brigade was faster than that of the first brigade: one hour and thirty minutes, and then there was no more gunshots on this battlefield-this is not surprising, I didn't sleep all night last night, and I spent a day and a night plus half After a morning's journey, they were ambushed immediately, and the entire Second Brigade was already exhausted among exhausted soldiers.As soon as the battle started, they were taken directly to the brigade headquarters. With the group of "pigs" without a leader, the "iron armored chariot" appeared again, and the Red Army shouted your "Brigade seat has surrendered" with high-pitched loudspeakers on the spot, which directly boosted morale cleared.

Ye Shuai, who was addicted to "playing" in an infantry tank, commanded the tank to conduct two forward and backward passes on the second brigade's position, assaulting through its entire defense line, rushing wherever he dared to resist, twisting around, The battle line collapsed completely, and it was impossible to establish a solid line of defense.The following Red Army infantry took the opportunity to penetrate, cut, and smash.

It only took an hour and a half, and the [-] "pigs" of the second brigade were caught by the Red Army just like that...

Seeing that the second brigade had collapsed across the board, Ye Shuai, who was excited to kill, directly ordered Elena to drive the tank to the next battlefield to encircle and wipe out the independent brigade.

The speed of the M2A3 tank exceeds 10 kilometers per hour. Even in the mountainous terrain of northern Sichuan, it can easily run at a speed of [-] to [-] kilometers per hour.At that time, it took only [-] minutes for Elena to drive the tank to the second battlefield to join the next encirclement and annihilation battle, just like dealing with the second brigade.

Like the second brigade, the officers and soldiers of the independent brigade who hadn't slept all night and ran a long marathon, under the attack of the Red Army in all directions, suffered such a "steel tank" "peerless hammer" and soon lost their morale. .It didn't take long before the sound of "hand in the gun and don't kill" resounded through the battlefield, and large tracts of land surrendered.What follows is just the garbage time for catching the remaining "5000 pigs".

However, due to the gold and jade of the second brigade, the time when the independent brigade collapsed will never be able to break Huang Jie's new record.

As for the new supplementary brigade with the weakest combat power of Hu Zongshi's first division.This unit was just formed at the end of last year. From the officers to the soldiers are all recruits, and the weapons are also eliminated from other units.Insufficient training and poor combat effectiveness, the Red Army was scattered in all directions as soon as it started fighting.

What's more terrible is that its radio group was unlucky when the war started. It "just happened" to stand on a certain "foreign dung" and was blown up into the sky by a shell that took the entire radio crew into the sky—this is why Hu Zongnan was unable to contact the supplementary brigade.

However, due to terrain reasons, the supplementary brigade did not fall into ambush in a valley where there was nowhere to escape. After all, more than 5000 people in the three brigades were marching, and the encirclement circle of the Red Army was too long and too wide. It's so big.

Compared with the second brigade and the independent brigade that were hit hard, the situation of the supplementary brigade in the back position is relatively much better.The supplementary brigade, which is mainly composed of recruits, "collapsed" not long after encountering an ambush.The whole brigade fled directly to all possible places in all directions, which was much harder to catch than the "five thousand pigs".

However, because their entire division didn't sleep all night, and they had just finished the "marathon" by marching nearly a hundred miles in a hurry, when the ants scattered and fled, they couldn't run a few steps. They ran away... and most of them were caught up by the Red Army surrounded from all directions before dark, and entered the prisoner camp.

The battle to encircle and wipe out Hu Zongnan's First Division broke out at [-]:[-] in the morning on August [-]. By twelve o'clock, there were only sporadic gunshots remaining on the battlefield, and the organized resistance of the First Division no longer existed.

The rest is the rubbish time for the Red Army to "catch pigs" in "all over the mountains and plains".

Originally, the Red Army was able to catch 5000 people in two hours to break the record set by Li Tiejun yesterday, but it was because the weakest supplementary brigade ran too loose and wasted time and dragged its feet, so unfortunately it was unable to break yesterday's record.

As for Hu Zongnan, who was at the front of the first brigade in the rear, the less than two hours were the most difficult two hours in his life.First, he frantically sent telegrams, trying to contact the three front-line brigades to inquire about the situation on the battlefield.

As a result, the radio team of the Supplementary Brigade was bombed into the sky just after the start of the battle, and the brigade headquarters of the Second Brigade were collectively captured 15 minutes after the start of the battle... Only the poor independent brigade was reluctant to "hold the old officer from running away". After nearly two hours of support, the brigade headquarters surrendered in the Red Army's "hand in the gun and don't kill", and contact with Chief Hu was interrupted.

Sun Yuanliang, the old chief of the "800 strong men" of the Sixing Warehouse, Sun Yuanliang, the Taibao of Shenxing, has the talent of "seeing a bad opportunity" and immediately abandoning his teacher to "flee thousands of miles away".If he was here, when he realized that all the main forces of his troops were in a tight siege and there was no cure, he would definitely step forward and shout "run" immediately.With this trick, the Beiyang Army couldn't catch up with him, the Japanese couldn't catch up with him, the People's Liberation Army couldn't catch up with him, and it took 103 years for even Hades to catch up with him...

Compared with him, Hu Zongnan is far behind in this point.Almost at the same time as the news that the three armies in front were surrounded and attacked came, news of a large number of Red Army onslaught also came from the direction of Songpan Laowo in the south.

The main force was besieged, and the old nest was taken away. This was the dilemma Hu Zong faced at that time with only a solitary division headquarters and a little guard battalion.

At eleven o'clock, Hu Zongnan's adjutant, the staff officer, was already surrounded by the side, admonishing Hu Zongnan: "Master, leave the green hills there. Don't be afraid that there will be no firewood. The situation is not good, so hurry up and withdraw!"
