    Faced with the People's Liberation Army's trench tactics, Yang Tao, Wang Yuanling and Zhang Xian were all at a loss. Zhang Xian proposed a trench operation tactic, which was to build a communication trench in front of his own position at the same time, move towards the People's Liberation Army's operation trench, and block it head on.  In order to achieve the purpose of delaying the enemy's approach to one's position.  This plan is still very feasible in theory, but in the actual operation process, because the national soldiers at this time were hungry and cold, and their bodies were weak, the progress of the operation was extremely slow.  The ground in winter was cold and hard, and many people were exhausted after digging a few shovels. In the end, they dug a few communication trenches, but they were very close and few in number, and they were often surrounded by the People's Liberation Army's communication trenches.  , it simply could not achieve the required results, and it consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, and finally had to give up.

    On December 12, the People's Liberation Army officially launched a large-scale attack on Shuangduiji, using powerful forces from all sides to attack the Tenth Army, which was still guarding the Eighteenth Army at this time, in order to gradually disintegrate the Twelfth Army.  But at the same time, they also launched an attack on the core positions of the 18th Army that were doubled up. This time they were directly targeting the Jiangudui position of the 118th Division.

    The sound of guns and artillery over Jiangudui never stopped for a moment from night to dawn, and then from dawn to night. Even the position of the 11th Division in Pinggudui, which was closely adjacent to the 118th Division, was unusually loud.  He became nervous. Although Zhang Xian was vigilant a hundred times and repelled the two groups of communist troops in the west that attempted to cross the Huanggou River and attack Pinggudui, he still lost sight of the other and problems arose at the junction with the 118th Division in the south.  Just as Hu Congjun had worried, a People's Liberation Army force of about one battalion penetrated between Jiangudui and Pinggudui, although Yang Tao and Zhang Xian had already deployed a company at the Tudui Temple in the west of this area.  The strength of the army was obviously too small. Facing the attack of a battalion of the opponent, they were quickly defeated.

    The loss of the Tutu Temple made both Yang Tao and Zhang Xian break into a cold sweat. It was a necessary place for communication between the 118th Division and the 11th Division. It could completely block the two communication trenches between the two divisions. In this way,  , the 118th Division became surrounded on all sides, and was unable to hold on to Jiangudui.

    Without waiting for Yang Tao to give an order, Zhang Xian personally organized two battalions of the 354th Regiment to attack the Tutu Temple. The battle became a white-hot strangulation from the beginning.  Commander Han Jue of the 354th Regiment also personally supervised the battle. He led two battalions into the Tu Tu Temple position and started a hand-to-hand fight with the occupying People's Liberation Army.  After all, on the small battlefield of Tutu Temple, the 11th Division had a partial advantage in strength. Finally, before dark, it drove away all the invading People's Liberation Army and reoccupied the Tutu Temple, ensuring that the 11th Division and the 118th Division were protected.  The communication is smooth.

    But at this moment, the Jiangudui position was lost.

    All the artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army was aimed at the towering Jiangudui. The Jiangudui position was already a sea of ??fire, but the defending national army still refused to retreat. The first regiment commander was killed in the artillery fire of the Communist army. Wang Yuanling immediately  A deputy regimental commander was appointed to take over the position of regimental commander. However, the new regiment commander was killed on the battlefield not even a day after taking office. Commander Wang Yuanling appointed a third regiment commander, who had only been in office for a few years.  Within hours, the People's Liberation Army took over the position.  They took advantage of the communication trenches extending to Jiangudui, used individual blasting methods, and used explosive devices such as explosive packs, cluster grenades, and blasting tubes to eliminate several connected fortresses on the periphery of the position. Then the troops behind them immediately developed in depth and rushed in.  Arriving at the main position of Jiangudui.

    Seeing that the Jiangudui was about to be lost, both Yang Tao and Wang Yuanling felt that the end was coming. In frustration, Commander Yang Tao finally made a desperate move and ordered Wang Yuanling to use nearly two hundred poisonous gas bombs.

    Wang Yuanling was hesitant at first, but now the situation was pressing and he had no choice but to pass the order.  Suddenly, hundreds of poisonous gas bombs fell on the People's Liberation Army's charging position, and thick smoke immediately billowed. The roar of people there suddenly fell silent, and the subsequent charge also stopped.

    Finally, there was a rare calm night on the Jiangudui battlefield, but everyone knew that after this calm, there would be an even crazier battle.

    Sure enough, in the early hours of the next day, the People's Liberation Army launched another attack, and the power of the gas bombs could only be guaranteed for a short time. As Zhang Xian said, it was impossible to reverse the decline of the national army.  Faced with another attack by the Communist army, Commander Wang Yuanling gritted his teeth and ordered all the remaining poison gas bombs of the 118th Division to be fired out. However, this time the opponents were obviously prepared. They rushed towards the general with wet towels tied to their noses.  Coming up, he is still as brave as a tiger coming down the mountain.

    In the desperate struggle, a large number of communist troops desperately rushed to Jiangudui. The soldiers of the 118th Division no longer ignored the shouts of their new regiment commanders and retreated one after another.?The regiment is very capable, but this regiment was attacked by the Communist army at the time. While guarding a village to the east, it suffered heavy casualties. It was withdrawn by Hu Congjun. After resting for two days, it was arranged to the east of Shuangduiji.  A contiguous group of wild fort positions were built on the open ground, and this position also became a barrier to the southeast of the 11th Division.  At noon on December 14, facing the People's Liberation Army's repeated attacks day and night, the wild fort group position was finally opened, and the 54th Regiment was almost completely wiped out.

    As for another division of the Tenth Army, the 75th Division, one regiment commander was killed under the attack of the People's Liberation Army, and the other regiment commander was forced to abandon his position and retreat to Xiaomazhuang, but was sentenced by Hu Congjun for retreating from the battle.  received the death penalty.  The division commander was hit by the enemy and seriously injured when he led the third regiment to guard a village northeast of Shuangduiji.

    There is only one 18th Division in the 10th Army, located in the area north of Shuangduiji. This division is the same as the 11th Division, formerly Teacher Yuan of the 18th Army. Its combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the 11th Division, and its positions are intertwined with those of the People's Liberation Army.  , stubbornly confronting each other, but still alive and well, and still retains considerable combat power.

    On December 14, the annihilation of the 54th Regiment immediately exposed the entire Pinggudui position of the 11th Division. Zhang Xian knew that the position of the 11th Division at this time was the final battlefield for the entire 12th Corps.  , once lost, it means the demise of the Twelve Corps.

    Zhang Xian knew very well that based on the People's Liberation Army's tactics, after capturing the open ground southeast of Pinggudui, they would not immediately launch an attack on their own positions. They would definitely attack their positions in the same way as the attack on Jiangudui, and they would have to dig at least a few passages to pass through.  In order to reduce the casualties during the charge, it will take a day. In other words, the night of the 15th will be the most difficult moment for the 11th Division, and the final life and death of the 12th Corps will be at that time.  That time.

    While he was anxiously thinking about how to deal with the Communist army's trench tactics with Deputy Commander Wu Hua, Chief of Staff Pan Yang and others, Xiong Sanwa walked in pushing squad leader Yu Deshui from the guard battalion.

    "Report!" Xiong Sanwa shouted.

    Zhang Xian turned his head and saw Xiong Sanwa, who still had a sad expression. Xiong Kaiping's death in battle was a big blow to him. During this period of time, he didn't talk or smile, as if he had infinite worries.  But Zhang Xian had no time to worry about his behavior. Although he wanted to comfort and enlighten him, he always gave up because of the tension of the war. When he saw him coming in with Yu Deshui, he still nodded and asked pleasantly.  Said: "What's the matter? Sanwa?"

    Xiong Sanwa pushed Yu Deshui forward and said angrily: "It's him, Yu Deshui wants to surrender to the enemy!"

    As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Zhang Xianjian looked directly at Yu Deshui. Although before, there were often cases of frontline soldiers crossing the firefighting zone and running into the Communist camp in other units, but  This has never happened in the 11th Division.

    Yu Deshui's face turned red and he kept defending: "NoI didn't!"

    "You don't have one?" Xiong Sanwa sneered, suddenly stretched out his hand, touched Yu Deshui's arms, took out a few pieces of paper, and handed them to Zhang Xian: "Look, this is what he has kept for a long time.  Communist leaflets!¡±

    "II didn't surrender to the enemy!" Yu Deshui was still defending, his voice was already trembling, and he was almost crying.

    Zhang Xian looked at the leaflet carefully. It was a propaganda material of the Communist Army. It was nothing more than asking the National Army soldiers to understand the situation, asking them to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. It said that the People's Liberation Army treated prisoners preferentially, and also taught them how to attack prisoners before the People's Liberation Army invaded.  At this time, do not resist, keep your weapons ready to meet the People's Liberation Army's demands for liberation, and the above clearly promised the National Army soldiers that as long as they do not resist, they can save their lives!

    This is just a very ordinary leaflet from the People's Liberation Army, which can be seen almost everywhere on the battlefield.  After Zhang Xian read it, he tore it into pieces and threw it on the ground. He asked calmly: "Yu Deshui, why do you keep this Communist Party leaflet?"

    Seeing that the division commander was not very angry, Yu Deshui became bolder and said truthfully: "Teacher Commander! They told me that as long as you take this leaflet, when we are defeated, we can take it out as a  An amulet can save your life! Many people in our division have such a piece of paper hidden on their bodies!"

    Listening to Yu Deshui's words, Zhang Xian only felt ashamed. At this time, as a division commander, he was very disappointed with this battle. It is no wonder that these soldiers have such thoughts. In fact, there are such thoughts and practices.  There must be a lot of people there, Yu Deshui is just an ordinary one.

    "Yu Deshui, you are also the squad leader of the guard camp. How can you believe what others say?" Zhang Xian said self-deceptive words to him, and at the same time encouraged: "Go back and tell everyone, as long as I  If this teacher is still alive, he will try his best to lead everyone out alive!"

    Yu Deshui was stunned for a moment. He could tell from the teacher's words that he didn't blame himself, so he plucked up the courage to ask: "Sir, can we really rush out?"

    Zhang Xian nodded affirmatively and said at the same time: "You have been following me for so long. When have I lied to you? Okay, you go down first!"

    "Yes!" Yu Deshui's face showed an expression of joy, he saluted Zhang Xian, turned around and made a face to Xiong Sanwa, and ran out of the shelter room.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Everyone, get out alive!  "

    Yu Deshui was stunned for a moment. He could tell from the teacher's words that he didn't blame himself, so he plucked up the courage to ask: "Sir, can we really rush out?"

    Zhang Xian nodded affirmatively and said at the same time: "You have been following me for so long. When have I lied to you? Okay, you go down first!"
