After receiving the order from Division Commander Zhang, Brigade Commander Huang in the Mengshangu area hurriedly ordered the team to continue marching in the northwest direction, but at this time, the scouts in front reported that a team was rushing here.
Brigade Commander Huang looked around and found that the Mengshangu in front of him was indeed a good place to block the attack, the terrain was dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if he seized the mountain here, he could block it here, waiting for the arrival of the division commander and his large army The team that rushed to this was the fat man's first division brothers, the fat man ambushed and blocked the main force of the 47th Division in Caomu Mountain, suffered a large number of casualties, and then immediately withdrew from the battle, and quickly took the remaining men and horses to withdraw in the direction of Mengshan, and his main force of the first division had already rushed to Mengshangu ambush, and was afraid that Miyamoto was quietly waiting for the arrival of the 47th Division, when the reconnaissance brothers reported that a team of the 47th Division had been found in front, The fat man, who received the situation, immediately ordered the main force waiting near Mengshangu by radio, and asked them to quickly attack, intercept the 47th Division, which had already broken into the encirclement of our army, and destroy this group of enemies first When Zhou Wu, who was in command of the battle in the command headquarters, heard that an advance force of the 47th Division had arrived at Mengshanggu, he hurriedly ordered Ge Sanmin and Xiao Zheng, who were also waiting next to him, to cooperate with the main force of the fat man's first division to eliminate the advance team of the 47th Division that had rushed to Mengshangu first.
There should be no major problem with almost three divisions and more than 20,000 men and horses besieging this brigade of the 47th Division At the same time, Zhou Wu hurriedly urged Lao Chen Hao's other two armies, who were desperately rushing towards Mengshangu, to speed up their march a little faster, and the enemy had already appeared on Mengshangu Lao Chen looked at it, isn't this asking for his own life, the enemy is a mechanized army, there are four wheels of trucks, and he and his team are marching on two legs, and now they have run enough, if they speed up again, then they won't run to death But Lao Chen thought that Zhou Wu must be in trouble, otherwise according to his character, he would not be so anxious to ask him to speed up the march again and catch up in the direction of Mengshangu, if the large army of the 47th Division had already arrived at Mengshangu at this time, then he really had to run even if he ran to death as long as he accelerated his speed, otherwise he would have to run if he let go of the ranks of the 47th Division, and his responsibility would be great.
Lao Chen issued an order to the troops below to speed up the march, telling the soldiers that no matter what method they used, they must rush to the Mengshangu area after five hours, and if they ran to death and were counted as martyrs, if they could not catch up there within the specified time, the brigade commanders, regiment commanders, and battalion commanders of the brigades would all be demoted, and those who deliberately delayed and did not advance would be dealt with by local military law Lao Chen can be said to be ruthless, ordering his team to speed up and run up, even if he dies on the way, he has to do this, his brothers heard this order, and they threw away everything except guns and ammunition on their bodies, under the encouragement of political work cadres and propaganda team members, but this strength continued to march in the direction of Mengshangu in front, and the other two teams of the East China People's Liberation Army also played with their lives, like Lao Chen, first put those brothers with good physique and fast legs into an advance team, and rushed over first, The large army was also all lightly armed, and the cadres' request to the soldiers was that no matter what the situation was, as long as they could get to Mengshangu, it would be a victory The soldiers under Lao Chen kept marching rapidly, and there were some brothers with slightly worse physique running on the way, and they fell to the ground and couldn't get up again, just when they ran to death on the road, the surrounding brothers hurriedly stepped forward, covered the bodies of these fallen brothers with clothes, and continued to move quickly in the direction of Mengshangu There was no sadness, no tears, and there was just faith in their hearts, that is, they must rush to the Mengshangu position as soon as possible and surrounded the Kuomintang King Kong ace division At the moment when Lao Chen and they were desperately trying to catch up in the direction of Mengshangu, Brigade Commander Huang of the First Brigade of the 47th Division in the direction of Mengshangu had already led the team to seize the intersection on Mengshangu, and they had an exchange of fire with Ge Sanmin who rushed over.
As soon as Division Commander Zhang heard that the First Brigade was dragged in Mengshangu in large numbers, he ignored the advice of his staff officers and insisted on ordering the main force of the 47th Division to press all towards Mengshangu, defeat this group, and encircle and annihilate them together with those troops outside According to the information of the comrades on the side of Linyi, it was only a tank regiment of the 47th Division that entered and occupied Linyi City, and the number of infantry was less than a battalion, and no other Kuomintang troops were found around Linyi at present, and the Kuomintang troops supporting the 47th Division were now busy cooperating with the 47th Division to rush towards Mengshan, the purpose was to realize the 47th Division's proposal to make the center of the 47th Division bloom.
In their opinion, Linyi City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the terrain is quite dangerous, and it has always been a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a tank regiment of the 47th Division and an infantry battalion to defend it, and it is impossible to take Linyi without anti-tank weapons for a while, so those Kuomintang generals think that there should be no problems in the direction of Linyi, even if there is a sneak attack, the closest team to Linyi is an army under the commander of the Xuzhou Bandit Suppression Command, which can allow them to advance quickly, The attack attacked the city of Linyi In this way, when Huang Shuisheng rushed to Linyi City with his team, he did not encounter the obstruction and attack of the surrounding Kuomintang troops, Huang Shuisheng felt a little incredible, afraid that he would fall into the enemy's hands, and did not dare to attack Linyi City immediately, and he also cared about the enemy tanks and armored vehicles in the city Huang Shuisheng and Ge Sanmin, like Zhou Wu's subordinates, were unwilling to do things that were at a loss, so Huang Shuisheng discussed with the officers under him, and felt that they couldn't attack Linyi hard, so they would definitely suffer, and we couldn't do such stupid things.
If you don't storm Linyi, what method should you use to capture Linyi City, you can't surround the city under the city and let those enemies defending the city come out and surrender Huang Shuisheng turned around Linyi City twice, and saw that the surrounding mountains were dangerous, the roads were narrow, and only one tank could be passed, so he immediately had a plan in his heart, and said to his officers: "Comrades, if we want to conquer Linyi City, we must kill the enemy's tank regiment, but we do not have weapons at hand that can effectively destroy the enemy's tanks and armored vehicles, and rely on the soldiers to blow them up with explosives bags and grenades, and the casualties are too great to be cost-effective, and after we capture Linyi City, We also have to guard against the counterattack of those enemy teams around us, so we must outwit this attack, and we must not storm it, as long as we can draw out all the enemy's tanks and get outside, it will be much easier, many places outside the city can be used to ambush the enemy's tanks, in addition to Caomu Mountain, there is also Fengyun Ridge, which is also a good place for ambushes, we can place a large number of mines there, delay the advance of the enemy's tanks, and cut off the connection between the tanks and the enemy's infantry, rush up to divide and encircle, and annihilate them all" Huang Shuisheng's plan is very bold, he wants to complete this plan, the first step is to lure out all the enemy tanks that are cowering in Linyi City, and then it is possible to continue the next steps, otherwise he has to return to the old routine of storming Linyi, so this first step to lure the enemy out of the city is quite crucial, directly related to whether Huang Shuisheng and they can successfully capture Linyi City in a short time Huang Shuisheng decided to send a brigade of troops first, using all the artillery fire at hand, to feint Linyi City, and the other teams set up an ambush in Fengyunling, waiting for those enemies in the city to come out, as for whether his trick can lure the enemy tank out, Huang Shuisheng himself has no bottom in his heart, but there is no way, the conditions are limited, and he can only do this at present, and what kind of situation will appear on the way later.
Huang Shuisheng's troops immediately under the cover of artillery fire, launched a fierce attack on Linyi City, for a time the cannon rumbled, the fire soared, Huang Shuisheng's team is Zhou Wu's artillery equipped with more teams, thanks to Huang Shuisheng's consistent efforts, plus those few armed gunboats were dismantled by Huang Shuisheng, with those 75 artillery and other mortars and other small artillery to form an artillery battalion, with ten 75 mm guns and more than 20 mortars, the firepower is also quite good under Zhou Wu's hands, This time Huang Shuisheng's feint attack on Linyi came in handy, although the caliber of the 75 mountain cannon is not so large, but it can be regarded as a cannon-level weapon in the People's Liberation Army, the cannonballs smashed on the city wall, and the city walls were torn apart one by one, Huang Shuisheng specially asked Zhou Wu to transfer the artillery expert, Zhang Ercheng, the current head of the artillery regiment directly under the military department, to his side, at this time the artillery that was bombarding the Linyi city wall was Zhang Ercheng in command of the battle. t1706231537:
