Just as Zhang Xian expected, Commander Huang Wei obeyed the order of the Ministry of National Defense and ordered to stop the fierce battle between the 12th Corps and the surrounding People's Liberation Army, and had to move to a defensive position to cooperate with the Xuzhou Du Yuming Group's southward movement.
However, after five days and five nights of bloody fighting starting from the siege of the 12th Corps, in fact at this time, both the Kuomintang's 12th Corps and the Communist Party's Central Plains Field Army suffered huge losses. During the day, the officers and soldiers of the 12th Corps, under the cover of artillery fire, tanks and air force, rushed towards the outer enemy positions in wave after wave. Then they fell down, walked again, fell again, and walked again. Go, go forward one after another, suffering countless casualties; and correspondingly, on the other side of the blocker, the officers and soldiers of the Central Plains Field Army also sacrificed their lives on the position in squads, rows, companies, battalions, and even regiments. , thousands of people were hit by artillery fire, bombs, and grenades thrown by opponents, and were shattered to pieces. Even their bodies could not be found, and they eventually became missing persons on the combat list!
Although the 12th Corps of the National Army was the main attack force during the day, tanks and tanks were organized to cooperate with the infantry to attack village by village, lane by lane, and house by house; but at night, this battlefield became the domain of the People's Liberation Army, which was better at night fighting. They fiercely The soldiers fought back to recapture the villages, positions, and even small mounds that had been occupied by the national army during the day. They would fight over and over again, refusing to give in to each other.
In this way, in this bloody fight, the two sides went back and forth, strangled and insulted each other. Even the two people who had never met each other became enemies who seemed to have a hatred and resentment for a lifetime. In these bloody days, the living people spent their days and nights like this!
In the battle report of the Ministry of National Defense, they continued to trumpet the invincibility of the national army to the public in order to encourage the people in the national-occupied areas, saying that this was the tactic of the 12th Corps to ravage the surrounding areas of Shuangduiji. And achieve great results! As for the Communist Party, of course what they are promoting is that the 12th Corps is struggling to its death! Putting aside the tit-for-tat rhetoric between the two parties, in fact, the cruel and bloody scene shown on the double-dumping battlefield can only be described as a mountain of corpses and a sea of ??blood!
At this time, in response to the Ministry of National Defense's order requiring the 12th Corps to stand still and wait for reinforcements, Commander Huang Wei quickly made a corresponding deployment, using the 18th Army to guard Pinggudui and Jiangudui in the north and south of the double stack for in-depth defense, forming a As the core inner outline of the corps; at the same time, use the regiment left by the 110th Division of the 85th Army and a regiment of the 18th Army to defend the waist circle and Lizhuang area, and defend to the west and southwest; use the 14th Army to defend The army will guard Zhangweizi and Yangsi Mazi areas, and defend to the east and northeast; use the 10th Army to defend Maweizi to the area between Yangzhuang and Lizhuang, and defend to the north and northwest; use the remaining 20th Army of the 85th Army to defend The third division defended Dawangzhuang and Caofang Village, heading southeast and south. In this way, the four corps of the 12th Corps and the rapid troops can huddle together, build a ring of fortifications, build a group of bunkers, dig trenches to connect them, and prepare for long-term defense. They can use tanks, machine guns, etc. and flamethrowers to form layers. The fire network makes it impossible for the People's Liberation Army to separate it. As long as it cannot be separated, it cannot be annihilated.
Huang Wei was very proud of this persistent defense. He claimed that this arrangement was a hard walnut tactic that the Communist army could not eat or chew. In order to strengthen his defense, he set up a plum blossom fort consisting of a large mother fort and five small sub-forts; a triangular fort consisting of a large mother fort and three small sub-forts; and several plum blossom forts. The fort group and the triangular fort group alternately form a larger plum blossom-shaped bunker group. They are still communicated with each other by trenches and ditches, and are equipped with intensive firepower, forming an extremely tight firepower network. This is actually the original reorganization of the ten bunkers. The 1st Division's strategy when it was surrounded by the East China Field Army in Nanma, in Commander Huang's words: "This is a sea of ??fire tactic specifically designed to deal with the human sea tactics of the Communist bandits!"
However, Zhang Xian couldn't feel proud at all and could not help but shake his head. This time has changed. The original Nanma did achieve unexpected results by relying on bunker tactics. However, after fighting the Communist army for so long, it is obviously inappropriate to continue to use this old-fashioned tactic. The Communist army is not a fool either. The reason why they have been able to get stronger and stronger since the beginning of the civil war is that they can adapt to changes. I'm afraid they already have a way to crack it. But now, what better way to stick to it? Zhang Xian couldn't think of it for a while, not to mention that he was already a bit exhausted at this time. Not only did he have a terrible headache, but the bouts of coughing also made him unable to concentrate on thinking!
Zhang Xian knows that today's Twelve Corps is basically trapped. In fact, the entire Corps has been surrounded by the People's Liberation Army in a small area of ??only fifteen or six miles from east to west, and only about twenty miles from north to south. It can be controlled There are only a dozen villages within tens of square kilometers centered on Shuangduiji.
It¡¯s just that at this time, Zhang Xian was already drowsy.It would be difficult for most people to climb back up after jumping down. The purpose is to prevent the enemy from escaping. Many trenches were dug only fifty or sixty meters away from the enemy positions. This greatly shortened the charging distance of the commanders and soldiers and effectively weakened the powerful firepower threat of the 12th Corps. The longest trench is twenty kilometers long, and each trench will be folded every fifty meters to form a wall crenellation style to reduce the damage caused by enemy artillery fire.
Regarding the main artillery fire of the Central Plains Field Army, since the heavy weapons were basically destroyed in the process of advancing into the Dabie Mountains, in order to strengthen their own firepower, in desperation, some people thought of the hoop gasoline canister ejection invented during the Anti-Japanese War. The technology of explosive packs is put to use immediately. It can throw dozens of kilograms of explosives at a time, with a range of tens of meters, which is the distance from the trench to the enemy's position. After the first use, the effect was so obvious that the defending soldiers were at a loss. They thought the Communists had obtained some advanced weapons and fled in fear. Therefore, the Central Plains Field Army vigorously promoted it in various units, which also greatly enhanced its firepower.
Therefore, these two unique fighting methods of the Central Plains Field Army have also become two fears for the Huang Wei Corps, which has a huge advantage in firepower.
Although Huang Wei held on and carried out constant counterattacks, the effect at this time could no longer be compared with that of the first battle, and the People's Liberation Army's cannibalization of the 12th Corps was even more daunting to everyone.
Yang Tao once again came to the 11th Division to visit Zhang Xian. Seeing his beloved general whose complexion was getting worse and worse, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion. He couldn't help but think of the time when he and Zhang Xian first met, and he couldn't help but say: "Axian , I think back when we were fighting against the Japanese, even though we were in dire straits, we were all high-spirited and confident; but now! Alas! It¡¯s too late for heroes!" He sighed and did not say any more.
Zhang Xian coughed again, smiled bitterly, and said: "Commander, this is not the final stage yet, why are you getting discouraged first?"
Yang Tao turned back and looked at him, as if he had a thousand words to express. After thinking about it, he still told him: "Axian, there are only two of us here now. Let me tell you the truth, we may really be doomed!"
"Oh?" Zhang Xian couldn't help being stunned, and asked quickly: "Why did the military commander say this?"
Yang Tao sighed, but said sincerely: "Axian, I really regret not listening to you and leading the 18th Army to break out of the encirclement. Now our situation is getting worse and worse. The Communist Army has adopted the method of encroachment." The strategy is eating up our friendly forces bit by bit. The regiment of the 110th Division was defeated by the Communist army yesterday and was almost wiped out. The regiment leader was also killed in the battle. A gap has been opened to our west. We I quickly sent a regiment to retake the village. While the battle was in progress, another regiment of the 14th Army in the northeast was eaten by the Communist army. Huang Wei ordered me several times to send troops to rescue, but we have already lost sight of one thing!"
Zhang Xian was silent for a while. At this time, the Eighteenth Army was just a fire-fighting team, running wherever there was fire, but the fire was burning everywhere. The Eighteenth Army could only fight with five or six regiments, and how could it be saved? Come here!
"By the way, there is something important I want to tell you!" Yang Tao suddenly said: "This may be good news!"
"Is there any good news at this time?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but ask.
"Sir Hu is coming back!" Yang Tao told him.
"Sir Hu?" Zhang Xian couldn't help but be startled. Hu Congjun, the real founder of the Twelve Corps, was supposed to be the commander of the corps, but he lost his command due to the intrigues above. If from the beginning, this If he was the commander of the Twelve Corps, the Twelve Corps would never end up like this. But at this moment, Zhang Xian had almost forgotten about him!
"Yes, he will be fine as soon as he comes!" Yang Tao, however, felt relieved and said leisurely: "But if the flying generals of Dragon City are here, I won't teach Hu Ma to cross the Yin Mountains!" It can be seen that Commander Yang is like Zhang Xian He had to respect his former superior so much.
Zhang Xian coughed violently again. After a long time, he suppressed the depression in his chest. He couldn't help but complained to himself: "If you don't come early, if you don't come late, what's the point of coming here at this time?"
Yang Tao was stunned for a moment, and his brows that were relaxed just now couldn't help but tightened again. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
