    When the news of the fierce fighting taking place in the preset position of the Reorganized 20th Division of the People's Liberation Army reached the Xinyang Branch, the branch director Zhang Zhen became restless in the command post. He has been in close contact with Bai Chongxi in the direction of Hankou, for fear that something might happen.  What a mistake.  Director Zhang is also a cautious person. From being a famous general in the Northern Expedition to his current position, he relied on his true talents and learning.

    Looking at the battle map he had laid out, Zhang Zhen always felt that something was wrong somewhere. At this time, he received a call from Hu Congjun. On the phone, Hu Congjun told him that the reorganized 11th Division had been reorganized from  There were two routes from the northeast to press towards Liulin Station, but at this time there was no firefight with the Communist troops. The more cautious Commander Hu raised his doubts: Are there other directions for these Communist troops to go?  Not all of them passed through Liulin, especially in the southwest direction, where the troops seemed a bit empty.

    Not long after Hu Congjun¡¯s call came in, he received news from his subordinate 11th Brigade that the 11th Brigade had discovered enemy traces and was pursuing them.

    However, Hu Congjun's words also reminded Zhang Zhen. He looked carefully at his layout plan and found that there was indeed a loophole in the southwest. This discovery immediately made him break out in a cold sweat. If these communist troops really wanted to use this loophole,  If you get through it, all your hard work will be in vain, and you will waste your troops and money, which will definitely cause dissatisfaction among many generals.

    At the moment, Director Zhang Zhen immediately called Chief Bai in Wuhan and raised his concerns with him. There was a gap in the southwest area of ????Tanjiahe all the way to Wusheng Pass.  Bai Chongxi also reacted immediately and immediately adjusted the ninth brigade to set off from Hengdian Station in the suburbs of Wuhan and drove to Wusheng Pass overnight.  After getting off the bus at Wushengguan, we immediately launched from Wushengguan to the northwest direction of Wujiadian to truly complete the four-sided encirclement of the People's Liberation Army.

    At this time, just as the National Army's reorganized Ninth Brigade got off the bus from Wusheng Pass, Wang Kun finally made up his mind and prepared to pass between Xishuanghe and Tanjiahe to seize Tumen Village and capture Xishuang.  Miao'er Mountain, the commanding heights in the south of Henan Province, is used to cover the transfer of other troops from here.

    It was only at this time that Commander Wang Kun issued the decision to break out of the encirclement to his subordinate units. It was obviously a bit late. In fact, at this time, many units had already been surrounded by the enemy for two days.

    After the plan was formulated, Commander Wang Kun sent a messenger to report the current enemy situation to the 28th Brigade. At this time, in addition to an advance guard regiment, the main force of the 28th Brigade was still along the railway.  At the same time, Wang Kun personally wrote a letter to the minister of health of the team directly under the column, ordering him to organize medical personnel and carry medicines lightly with the troops. This letter was also sent by a special correspondent to deliver it.

    After the order was issued, Commander Wang Kun began to organize the team directly under the column and the vanguard regiment of the 28th Brigade to prepare for a breakout. At this time, after receiving the notification from Zongzhi, the 28th Brigade immediately ordered the team directly under the brigade and a group of  The regiment's headquarters and some combat personnel arrived quickly. These troops followed Zongzhi and began to break out to the southwest between Xishuanghe and Tanjiahe.

    Just when Zongzhi was breaking through, the two main regiments of the 28th Brigade began to break away from the railway line and moved closer to their vanguard regiment and Zongzhi.

    At night, the two regiments of the 28th Brigade were also surrounded by enemy troops. Due to the disparity in strength between the two sides, a battalion of one of the regiments could not break through the blockade of the reorganized 20th Division and fell into a desperate situation.  The fight lasted from the night of the 6th to the dawn of the 7th, but still without results. In desperation, the other two battalions of this regiment seized several important nearby hills to block the enemy's attack.

    As for Zongzhi, they were also entangled in the reorganization of the 20th Division. In order to cover Zongzhi's smooth breakout, the 28th Brigade had to take the initiative to launch an attack on the reorganized 20th Division. As expected, it quickly attracted  Enemy's attention.

    But the 28th Brigade was scarred by the fierce battles night and day; similarly, for the reorganized 20th Division, they did not expect that their opponents would be so tenacious, and they also paid a heavy price, suffering casualties on the battlefield.

    Liu Xinghua finally divided the team into two. The main force was led by Xiong Zhuoran. Before the enemy could catch up, he left the main road and followed the mountain road to hide in the big tea ditch on the side of the tea mountain. Liu Xinghua  However, he led a regiment of Liang San's brigade and continued to pretend to be a large force and advanced towards Jiuliguan.

    According to Xiong Zhuoran's opinion, Liu Xinghua, as the commander of the column, should not be involved in danger. This task can be directly handed over to Brigadier Liang San.  But Liu Xinghua believes that no one is more familiar with the terrain in this area than him. He has been fighting guerrillas here for more than ten years, and he can feel the location even with his eyes closed; more importantly,  Or is he grateful for his hard work??, you immediately send a company to reconnoiter along this mountain road over there!  "

    Xu Haibo was stunned for a moment and asked puzzledly: "What is there to reconnoiter in that direction? It's getting late now. The enemy must be rushing towards Jiuliguan and preparing to cross the railway tonight. Otherwise, is it possible to go up Jigong Mountain?"  Do you really want to go sightseeing?"

    Jigong Mountain is one of the four major summer resorts in China. It became famous very late. An American missionary discovered the beautiful scenery here when he built a church there. After the Pinghan-Hankou Railway was built, the transportation between here and Wuhan was convenient, many  Foreign envoys and domestic dignitaries built villas here and became famous.  During the Anti-Japanese War, Chiang Kai-shek stayed here and participated in formulating the details of the Wuhan Defense War.  When Xu Haibo mentioned it here, he naturally said the opposite.

    Zhang Xian glanced at him, but said leisurely: "If I guess correctly, this is actually Liu Xinghua's plan to escape!"

    "The golden cicada escaped from its shell?" Xu Haibo and everyone were stunned.

    Zhang Xian nodded affirmatively and analyzed: "This Liu Xinghua is the most cunning. He is much stronger than the Communist leader named Wang Kun. He was able to single-handedly block our two brigades in Baique Garden, and also allowed  Our two brigades are exhausted, and not many people can do this!"

    "So what?" Xu Haibo said disapprovingly: "Didn't he still lose to us in the end?"

    Zhang Xian shook his head. He didn't want to explain the reason too much. Regarding this matter, he said to Xu Haibo: "Old Xu, it is impossible for a smart person like Liu Xinghua not to feel the danger ahead. He brought  It is definitely not easy for so many people to pass through the Pinghan-Han Railway smoothly. What if it were you, and the way ahead is unclear, and there are pursuers behind you, what would you do?"

    Xu Haibo thought for a moment and felt that Zhang Xian was right. He nodded and said, "Yes, after you said this, I understand a little bit. If I were him, I might also choose to hide first and send some people."  He lured away the pursuers behind him, and then turned elsewhere!" After saying that, he looked at Bai Jingsheng beside him, and shouted: "Captain Bai, what are you doing with me? Send troops to the other side of the mountain quickly.  Go for reconnaissance?"

    "Yes!" Bai Jingsheng replied repeatedly.

    At the moment, Zhang Xian ordered the whole brigade to rest here temporarily. After running for such a long time, everyone was actually very tired.  What's more important is that Zhang Xian wants to wait for the company to detect the situation. After all, all this is just his guess and must be confirmed.  Sending this company is the best choice. If there is no trace of the Communist army in front, then they can turn to Jiuliguan with peace of mind!

    However, when Bai Jingsheng had just withdrawn a company and was about to search the mountain road, Xiong Sanwa hurried over with a telegram. It turned out to be the telegraph order from Hu Congjun that the telegraph operator had just received, ordering the reorganization of the 11th Brigade.  Quickly advance towards Jiuliguan, because taking advantage of the lack of rain on this day, the Air Force reconnaissance plane flew at low altitude and discovered that a group of Communist troops was moving towards Jiuliguan. According to estimates, this group of Communist troops was close enough  Thousands of people!

    After receiving this telegram, Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment. It seemed that his judgment was somewhat wrong. The actual situation was not as complicated as he thought just now. Liu Xinghua's communist troops still went to Jiuliguan!  At that moment, Zhang Xian ordered Bai Jingsheng to recruit back the reconnaissance company that had just been sent out, and the two combat regiments of the brigade immediately took action to pursue Jiuliguan!

    Standing in the woods at the top of Chashan Mountain, Xiong Zhuoran held up his binoculars and looked at the 11th Reorganized Brigade that had gone away. He took a long breath and let go of his high heart. The reason why he didn't  I completely let go because I was still worried about Liu Xinghua's people.

    On the other side of the hill, there were many PLA officers and soldiers, holding their breath and not daring to say a word. Even the horses and mules were being caressed by the breeders, feeding them fodder while nervously  , for fear that these livestock would bray.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
