Section 44 Niuhang Station (11)
It was difficult for Li Junyi to walk to Niuxing Station. Because the Lehua Station was destroyed, Li Junyi's troops had to get off in Lehua and walk forward. They arrived at Jiaoqiao that night and arrived at Niuxing Front the next day. The arrival of reinforcements boosted the morale of Sun Jun on the front.
Zheng Junyan adjusted the deployment and decided to have Li Junyi's troops be responsible for the frontal attack, Liang Hongen and Yang Genghe are responsible for the east, and Peng Dequan is responsible for the west, and the main attack point is the 13th Regiment Joint Department, which first cuts the connection between Niuxing Station and the hill.
In the afternoon, the deployment was adjusted and Zheng Junyan began to launch an attack.
The attack was very fierce from the beginning, with Peng Dequan pressing towards Xue Yue with heavy troops; Li Junyi attacking the fourth company on the front with one battalion and a regiment assaulting the fifth company on the left wing; in the east, Liang Yang each set up a battalion and attacking Liu Jing's third battalion in turn.
Peng, Li, Liang, and Yang, four brigade commanders led the guards to supervise the battle behind. More than 100 burly men stood behind the formation with bare shirtless, holding ghost-headed swords. There were more than ten big drums arranged in front of the position, and more than twenty big men stood in front of the drums holding drum hammers.
"Fire the cannon!" Zheng Junyan looked at Niu Xing Station, looking at the station that brought him countless setbacks and countless sadness, and coldly ordered that he must take down this station today, and he wanted to see what Zhuang Jihua looked like!
The muzzle spewed out flames, and the shells ran towards the distant positions with a sharp roar. In an instant, the position was covered with smoke and fire. The violent explosion made the land under his feet tremble slightly.
Amid the explosion, Li Junyi gave a speech to the troops participating in the offensive area: "Brothers! I saw that there were not many party troops on the other side. They rushed over and took the position and each person received ten yuan. The first person to rush into Niuxing Station was 100 yuan to reward the ocean, and the officer was promoted to the next level."
Hearing the rewards, the morale of the army was greatly boosted, and the position on the opposite side trembled in the fierce artillery fire. They believed that there would be no living people on that piece of land. It would be easy to seize such a position.
In contrast, Liang Hongen, Yang Genghe and Peng Dequan were much more generous in rewards, with the number of oceans being fifty and five hundred respectively. The officers were promoted to three levels in a row.
But the reactions of the officers and soldiers were completely different. It was not the first time that they had shelled like this in these days, but every time they rushed up, this land of death could always spew out the fire of death and harvest their lives.
After the shelling lasted for more than twenty minutes, Zheng Junyan waved his hand, and more than twenty big men waved the drum hammer and smashed it hard on the drum. Amid the sound of the earth-shaking drums, a gray wave began to charge forward, and the opposite position seemed to be dead, silent; but just as the gray wave approached the position, a light suddenly shone out from the position. Scalding light, the gray wave's wave's wave fell rapidly.
The gray wave did not surrender, and then raised another wave and rolled forward in the rain of bullets. Suddenly, a fierce shout of killing came. In the telescope, a group of ragged Northern Expedition officers and soldiers jumped out of the incomplete trenches with their bright bayonets and launched a counter-charge against the gray waves. The two waves collided quickly and violently. Countless white gleaming bayonets collided with each other, and the grenades exploded at close range; the crowd was rapidly decreasing, and after more than twenty minutes, the attacker retreated in a hurry.
Li Junyi looked at the retreating troops with a pale face and stunned look. He was a little confused. How could he defeated. "Brother, we have been fighting such an attack for seven days. How could we transfer you here if it is not difficult?" Zheng Junyan saw that he was confused and said with a wry smile. Then he changed his tone and said, "This is still successful. I am approaching and rushing to their position. Kill one thousand enemies and lose three hundred themselves. Just use it like this. I can always use it."
Although Zheng Junyan spoke easily, he lamented in his heart that if he had finished this, what would he do to resist the main force of the Northern Expedition Army in southern and central Jiangxi?
"Report to the commander, right wing has entered!"
Zheng Junyan and Li Junyi were very excited when they heard this. They grabbed the telescope and looked at the right wing. On the positions of the 13th Regiment, the dark gray military uniforms had been deeply inserted into the positions. The light gray military uniforms in Guangdong seemed to be insufficient to support and began to retreat. Before they could be happy, a team of people emerged from the station and on the hills. The two teams entered the dark gray military uniforms from the back and flanks. The dark gray attack momentum was blocked. After more than ten minutes, the dark gray retreated like a receding tide. The light gray military uniforms rushed to chase. The dark gray quickly collapsed. The officers and soldiers threw down their weapons and ran backwards.
Li Junyi's face turned red, and a whole group was defeated by these hundreds of people. He threw down his telescope and shouted: "The machine gun is ready, the machine gun is ready..."
Several soldiers running in front turned over and fell. The law enforcement officer took the more than a hundred strong men holding big swords to move forward, "Those who retreat back die! Those who retreat die!"
With his hands raised his sword, several soldiers standing there in a daze were cut into two pieces, and the remaining soldiers turned around and ran back in a hurry.
"Roar! Go up!" The colonel commander among the riots looked at the bright big knife and shouted hysterically. If he just went back like this, his head would definitely be hung on the flagpole.
Zheng Junyan looked at the troops rushing back coldly. He knew that they would not succeed. It would be difficult for such troops to retreat and charge to pass through the fire net, but he had to ask them to rush over and consume their opponents. Even if they were all dead, they would just consume half of the people on the battlefield.
"Order the Second Corps to be ready."
Li Junyi looked at Zheng Junyan in surprise, but the latter stared at him without any vagueness. Li Junyi understood and immediately ordered the Second Corps to prepare for attack.
Zheng Junyan didn't know that Zhuang Jihua in the station had already taken out all his energy. When the fifth company's position was broken through, Song Xiongfu led the remaining more than 100 people from the first battalion to launch a counterattack. If Xue Yue on the hill had not discovered the danger and sent the 20th company as a reserve team to assault from the flank, the connection between the 13th Regiment might have been broken.
Song Xiongfu took over the position of the Fourth Company. At this moment, there were the 1st and 2nd Battalions and 4th Company on the position, with four companies in number, but the total number of troops was less than 200. Knowing that the enemy who could not go back was extremely fierce, he rushed to the front line that was only 30 meters wide, and the battle once again entered a white-hot heat.
"Brothers, I can't go back anymore, the way forward is the way to live!" The officer mixed in the army howled and drove the soldiers to charge.
"Grenade!" Song Xiongfu shouted and threw out two grenades, but then he touched them in vain.
"Battery Commander! The grenade is gone!"
"there is none left!"
The soldiers kept shouting, and Song Xiongfu grabbed the rifle and yelled: "Get the bayonet!"
"Crack!" "Crack!" A sharp bayonet shines in the sun, "Kill them back!" Song Xiongfu roared and jumped out of the trench and led the way to the enemy group.
The two armies fought again. Song Xiongfu had no idea how many times it had fought. After rushing out, he stabbed two in a row, and formed a small group with him. Song Xiongfu looked at the colonel holding the command knife. He roared and rushed over. Looking at Song Xiongfu, who was ragged and like a wolf, the colonel was so scared that he retreated frequently, and yelled as he retreated: "Go! Go! Kill them! Kill them!"
A group of soldiers rushed forward and stopped Song Xiongfu. Song Xiongfu was calm and calm. A gun was elusive. The four people cooperated with each other. In the blink of an eye, three or four enemies fell under their bayonets. The blood spurted out dyed them red. In the blood, Song Xiongfu unswervingly rushed towards the colonel.
In a panic retreat, the colonel tripped by the corpse under his feet. When he got up, he had a machine gun in his hand. He smiled and pointed it at Song Xiongfu. Seeing that something was wrong, Song Xiongfu raised his hand and threw the gun in his hand over, snatched a beautiful arc in the air, and accurately hit the colonel's chest. At the same time, two bayonets also pierced Song Xiongfu's chest.
Song Xiongfu fell down without a sound. The three soldiers around him fought back in grief. "Avenge the battalion commander!" As the officers and soldiers of the battalion roared, the enemy left behind all the bodies and ran away. The angry officers and soldiers of the battalion chased them relentlessly.
Song Xiongfu's death made Zhuang Jihua feel that it was difficult for him to defend such a long line of defense with his current troops. He began to want to further shrink his troops and let Xue Yue lead his troops to retreat to the station, but his movements were slow. The fleeing defeated soldiers had just retreated and had not even retreated halfway, Zheng Junyan ordered the prepared second regiment to launch a second wave of offensive.
The blind pursuit of the first battalion made Zheng Junyan seize the loophole. The second regiment rushed up to the first battalion. The first battalion, which had heavy casualties, could no longer stop the enemy's attack. Most of them died, and a small part retreated back to the station. The connection between the first and third regiments was cut off.
Just when the defense line was broken, Peng Dequan, Liang Hongen and Yang Genghe's offenses also developed to a maximum, and Xue Yue and Liu Jing fell into a tough battle at the same time.
"Damn, I don't believe it. This thing should melt even if it is made of iron!" Peng Dequan looked proudly at the troops rushing to the third regiment's positions. This afternoon, he launched three consecutive attacks, and now he finally broke through Xue Yue's defense line. The chief of staff next to him nodded, but his eyes turned to the standing flagpole next to him. There were seven or eight heads hanging on the flagpole. The latest two were the battalion commanders who led the team to attack twice. The eyes on the head were wide open, and blood was still dripping under the neck. In the telescope, the defenders were unable to counterattack, and the remaining few people were retreating to the small temple on the hill in a mess.
Xue Yue in the small temple looked at the enemy occupying the frontier calmly. He was now unable to launch a counterattack. There was only one Dai Anlan Company in his hands. All the remaining troops were disabled. The Eighth Battalion was almost completely injured and killed. Most of the seventh Battalion was injured. The two battalions had only about two hundred people in total. More than half of them were left in the Ninth Battalion, and the entire regiment had only more than five hundred people, half of which were injured.
"Twelve days!" Xue Yue sighed in his heart when he looked at the West. There are still three days left. Now the two groups have been split, and the remaining three days will only be the only way to fight each other.
Chapter completed!
