Although the rain has stopped, the battlefield is still muddy, which brings great inconvenience to the charging PLA soldiers. Many people slipped and fell in the mud during the charge. However, this is a blessing in disguise. Before those who had fallen on the ground could get up, they saw those who had rushed to stand in front of them falling down. The national army's bunker suddenly appeared. The sound of churning machine guns could be heard. In the dark night, only countless tongues of flames could be seen. It was spraying out like a violent storm, instantly sucking everyone into the haze of death.
Only then did everyone realize that the battle had just begun after they had worked so hard to open three or four barbed wire fences in front of the enemy's position, opened two of the deer fences, and then passed through the mine array to actually reach the enemy's position. . The powerful firepower from the opponent's bunker was truly a fatal blow to him. Almost at the same time, their cluster grenades were thrown out and exploded in the middle of the crowd. The huge explosion force knocked down the soldiers who were lying on the ground. It was lifted up and once again became the target of the enemy's shooting. For a time, the casualties appeared one-sided. The whole company and the whole battalion of people went up, and then the whole company and the whole battalion fell.
This is the battlefield east of Nanma, and it is also the most intense and thrilling battle that night. But the People's Liberation Army did not say that there were no results. After a difficult battle, they finally captured the outpost position of the reorganized 11th Division and captured the first bunker group.
However, when they attacked the bunker group, it was already dawn. From the captured prisoners, they learned that there was only one company stationed in this bunker group, and when this company was unable to defend, the large number of people Under the leadership of Captain Ma, they have retreated to Shalingzi, which is the official peripheral position of the reorganized 118th Brigade. But only one platoon was eliminated by them, and those were the people who had not had time to evacuate.
Commander Wei of the Second Column was very dissatisfied with this result, because they had two regiments of troops besieging this outpost, and the casualties reached four to five hundred people. This number was the highest casualty ratio since he had fought so many battles. Considerable.
In fact, this night was extremely unsatisfactory for the other two columns. The ninth column fought until dawn. The divisions and regiments did not complete the planned plan and reached the designated positions, but suffered many casualties. As for the Sixth Column in the south, they only controlled Fenghuangding. The main force entered the Chongxiguan Village and Buxia Village area and attacked Zhongmatougu and Taipingding.
It is worth mentioning that the Malianshan stronghold was, as Zhang Xian expected, besieged by three regiments of the Sixth Column. Although artillery fire from the direction of Nanma came with fierce support, it was really a drop in the bucket and of no avail. The People's Liberation Army's artillery fire came overwhelmingly like a flood, and soon submerged the National Army's artillery fire. The entire hilltop was full of bullet holes, and almost no position was intact.
With the support of artillery fire, the People's Liberation Army was besieging them from all sides. However, the Chinese soldiers stationed at the position were also extremely tenacious. Under the leadership of the company commander, the officers and soldiers of the entire company launched a close-range fight with the attacking People's Liberation Army. They fought hand-to-hand, but were still outnumbered. After several hours of fighting, at dawn, the company commander was hit by a flying artillery shell and was immediately shattered into pieces. The entire company was finally wiped out by the People's Liberation Army.
Although the Malian Mountain stronghold was eventually lost, it delayed the People's Liberation Army's assembly to Liangmi Mountain for several hours, and at the same time caused the People's Liberation Army to suffer about twice as many troop losses.
*****************
At dawn, the People's Liberation Army had a period of rest and did not launch attacks again. Therefore, this rare calm also made Hu Congjun and Zhang Xian, who were at the division headquarters at this time, let out a sigh of relief.
The battle situation in all aspects was quickly summarized. Because of the flat terrain, the east side was still the front where the People's Liberation Army focused its offensive. At this time, they had already conquered the outpost positions of the 118th Brigade and reached Bucun and Rulin. Gathering on the north-south front line, they formed a confrontation with the 118th Brigade in Shagou Village and Shalingzi Village. To the south, because there is a Yi River that separates the east and west, due to continuous heavy rains, the river water surged, and there are still several hilltop positions on the south bank of the river. Although Malian Mountain has been lost, Taipingding and Zhongmatougu are still guarding the enemy. The throat of the north. To the west, the 18th Brigade also fought very well, successfully blocking the PLA troops trying to penetrate from Liujiayu, and effectively forming a strong line of defense along Tashan, Gushan, and Yanhuazhai, blocking the PLA troops from the west. of eastward. It's just that the battle in the north was a bit unexpected. The focus of the 118th Brigade's defense was naturally the defense line from Lishan, Wangjiashan to Jingshan, which was perfectly integrated with the defense line of the 18th Brigade to the west. But at the junction of Jingshan, it was obvious that the cooperation between the two brigades was not very good, and a gap was broken through by the main force of the PLA's Nine Columns, andHe nodded and said in admiration: "Haha, it seems that the teacher has already thought of it!"
Hu Congjun nodded and told him with a smile: "I have divided our search team into four groups and sent them out. Chen Daxing is afraid that he will have arrived at Mantis Valley by now!"
This is really what heroes think alike. At this moment, Zhang Xian suddenly felt that he was relatively lucky. He could always meet officers who could appreciate him, and he had a place to use himself. Compared with many of his classmates, he was I don¡¯t know how much happier I am.
*****************
The Nine Columns finally captured Jingshan at dawn, but they had already lost nearly two battalions of troops on this position.
After daybreak, when Commander Xu Guang personally set foot on this mountain peak, he was deeply shocked by the tragic scene on this battlefield. I saw that in the undulating mountains, the originally dense trees had been destroyed by artillery fire, leaving only many bare wooden piles still standing stubbornly. The gunpowder smoke has not completely dissipated, and the humid air after the rain is filled with a thick smell of sulfur and saltpeter that cannot be dissipated for a long time. And mixed in the air, there was also a choking blood. Looking around, the entire hillside was strewn with corpses. Among them, the corpses wearing gray and white East China Field Army uniforms were the most numerous. In contrast, there were far fewer Chinese soldiers in khaki uniforms.
At this time, many soldiers of the East China Field Army were cleaning the battlefield. They carried the corpses of their comrades down the mountain one after another. There were several donkey carts parked on the mountainside, and the corpses of these sacrificed soldiers were loaded on them. The donkey carts will then be transported to a centralized location for burial. This is the weather in July. If it doesn't rain, the temperature will rise very quickly. If it is not cleaned up in time, the place will soon be full of corpse odor.
The entire battlefield was solemn. No one was shouting, no one was joking, and no one was joking. Everyone was silently busy with what they were doing, as if only in this way could they suppress the pain in their hearts and forget their fear and grief. .
Wang Dahu and Lei Lei came gently behind Xu Guang, but Xu Guang was completely unaware. The two looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know how to wake up the silent commander. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
