The situation on the battlefield is becoming more and more unfavorable to the tank troops of the second son, and a number of advanced American "Xiafei" tanks have been hit by armor-piercing shells and caught fire, and the tank soldiers in the tanks were either shocked to death or burned to death by the fire, and some tank soldiers who were lucky enough not to be burned to death became Lao Cheng's prisoners, and all of them were captured alive by the PLA tank soldiers At this moment, seeing that a large number of tanks were destroyed by the broken tanks on the opposite side, the second prince came to his senses, his team was not the opponent of the opposite tank at all, if he did not quickly leave the battlefield at this time, then what was waiting for him would be the fate of the annihilation of the whole army The second prince immediately ordered the remaining tanks to turn around in the intercom and evacuate in the direction of Jia Wang, and the tanks that received the evacuation order hurriedly turned around and flew towards the southwest to kill the tiger's mouth, at this moment the new commander of the 18th Army with a large army was about to rush to the tiger's mouth, and the fat man who was watching the tank battle on the slopes on both sides of the tiger's mouth scolded: "Damn, these tanks of the Kuomintang are really cowardly, they were defeated so quickly, and seeing that the large army of the 18th Army was about to arrive, their tanks were withdrawn." , The team of the Eighteenth Army will definitely turn around and run back to Jiawang, so in this way, won't it be in vain if you wait here for two days, can't you let go of these enemy tanks below, and let them taste the power of my Lao Liu's team The fat man immediately ordered: all attention, fire The brothers of the first division who were ambushed on the slopes on both sides of the hill had been waiting impatiently, and the fat man gave the order to open fire, and suddenly the valley erupted in the sound of gunfire one after another, grenades, bullets, and mortar shells smashed into the tanks of the second son who were passing through the mouth of the tiger below, and the road was full of flames, and thick smoke was everywhere.
Hurriedly drove his own car, the American-style "Xiafei" tank, at full power, and rushed through the mouth of the killing tiger and ran desperately in the direction of Jia Wang.
Although the fat man's men were as dense as a storm, and the mortar shells were also inclined down like rain, they could not cause substantial damage to the tanks below, and these American tanks were at full speed and forced through the area of the tiger's mouth At this moment, Commander Wen's infantry also encountered the ambush of the fat man's brothers, many foggy and unprepared, and suddenly encountered a fierce blow from the PLA soldiers on both sides of the road, and the formation was panicked, but Commander Wen still had two strikes, and hurriedly ordered one of his main brigades to go up to block the fat man who attacked from below, and the large army quickly retreated, retreating towards the fortifications of Jia Wang, as long as he could retreat to the fortifications, then he was sure to resist the ambush troops.
After receiving the order of Commander Wen, the brigade of the newly formed 18th Army of the Kuomintang was still very combative, and quickly seized the hills on both sides of the highway in the midst of the chaos, set up heavy machine guns and mortars to launch a counterattack on the fat men who were rushing down the mountain, and the artillery units of the 18th Army, which had not yet left Jiawang, received the urgent order of Commander Wen, and concentrated all its artillery to bombard in the direction of Longmen Mountain.
Some of the soldiers of the Fat First Division, who were rushing down the mountain, were shot and fell to the ground, and the troops suffered casualties, but the Fat Man was determined to fight with the Eighteenth Army on the road below, gritted his teeth and ordered his teams to rush down quickly, encircle the enemy and annihilate it In the smoke of artillery fire from the enemy, the soldiers of a regiment of the main force under the fat man have rushed to the road between the tiger's mouth and Xie Zhuang, and the tanks of the second son ran away without a trace, and the PLA soldiers were in face-to-face contact with the brigade sent by the commander of the army to resist the impact of the PLA, so the soldiers on both sides started a fierce fight as soon as they met, although the number of this regiment of the PLA was much smaller than that of the national army brigade, but the momentum overwhelmed the soldiers who were desperately resisting, The soldiers brought out by the fat man were really different, all of them were screaming, and they were not afraid of death at all when they started fighting, and they only rushed forward one by one Immediately afterwards, the fat man arrived with the main force of the division and surrounded the brigade of the national army near Xie Zhuang, the brigade commander rushed to the serious situation, and hurriedly retreated to the rear to the Jiawang fortifications to ask for help: "Military seat, our department is surrounded by a large number of troops, the situation is critical, the brothers are desperately resisting, asking for reinforcements" Commander Wen was also anxious, this brigade was his starting team, if it was wiped out by the team this time, then his eighteenth army would be finished, and he must not let those on the opposite side succeed, and he must fish out that brigade.
Commander Wen hurriedly stopped the second son who had escaped from Xie Zhuang and pleaded with him: "Go and save my broken brigade, they have been surrounded, your tank is rushing ahead, I will take the main force of the 18th Army to kill and rescue that brigade."
As soon as the second prince heard that Commander Wen was going back again, he hurriedly shook his head: "Don't go, if you go, you are looking for death, the tank troops have already caught up, and even our advanced American tanks can't stop it, aren't you infantry looking for death when you go up?"
After speaking, the second son hurriedly got into the tank, without saying a word, he didn't even go to Jia Wang in the southwest at full speed, and ran directly to Xuzhou City in the east, he felt that under the attack of so many teams, Jia Wang would not be able to protect sooner or later, so it was better to run to Xuzhou as soon as possible.
He was safe, but Commander Wen was miserable, when he saw that the second son had slipped away, his brigade was surrounded by a large army, and he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, and scolded: "I regret that I shouldn't have listened to Lao Lu's words, I listened to Huangkou Xiaoer's nonsense, and I suffered this catastrophe today, and I suffered by myself." ” When the officers around Commander Wen saw it, they hurriedly supported him and persuaded him: "Military seat, let's quickly withdraw to the fortifications, otherwise we will really be surrounded by the opposite side, Brigade Commander Zeng is brave and good at fighting, and it is estimated that he should be able to break through." ” Commander Wen: "If we don't go to the rescue, he can rush out with the team, the artillery regiment will concentrate all the artillery fire to bombard the position, and quickly connect the phone of the Xuzhou Suppression General Headquarters, I will personally talk to Chief Liu" The large-caliber howitzers of the artillery regiment began to bombard desperately, and the shells blew up the entire Longmen Mountain in a cloud of gunsmoke, but this kind of shooting without specific targets and artillery corrections had no effect at all, and was purely a waste of shells, except for adding some noise on the battlefield, there was almost no other effect, and the artillery units could not help the surrounded brigade, which was better than nothing.
On the phone, the commander of the army scolded the second son for not saving him when he saw death, and ran to Xuzhou by himself, asking Chief Liu to quickly send troops to Jia Wang to rescue his brigade, Chief Liu was suffering from a headache for Taierzhuang at the moment when he was attacked by a large army, and when he heard Lao Wen scolding the second son, he hurriedly and cautiously said to him: "Lao Wen, don't be impulsive, hold on for a while, and I will immediately send the air force to support you."
"It's useless to send planes, we are entangled with the communist army, can the planes drop bombs, or send an infantry team quickly, otherwise Jia Wang is in danger here," Commander Wen shouted.
As soon as Chief Liu heard this, Jia Wang was in danger, it was indeed much more troublesome than losing Taierzhuang, Jia Wang is closer to Xuzhou, and the geographical location is very important, the most important thing is that there are big coal mines in Jia Wang, if these coal mines are occupied, then the trains on Jinpu Road and Longhai Line in Xuzhou will not be able to run, there is no coal to burn, the train is running a fart, there is no train, then what should we do with the logistics supply of more than 300,000 troops around Xuzhou Thinking of this, Chief Liu gritted his teeth and decided, sent all the elite New Fifth Army of the Central Army to guard Xuzhou City to Jia Wang to reinforce Commander Wen, the New Fifth Army is a well-known Kuomintang ace army, once in Burma and India to fight the Japanese devils, won many battles, invincible, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Lao Jiang rebuilt the Fifth Army into a fully mechanized team, the number of soldiers is more than 50,000, all the officers are graduates of the Whampoa Military Academy, the commander Zheng Jun Commander stayed in the ocean, served as an instructor of the Whampoa Military Academy, and the Beiyang warlords, the Red Army, The Japanese devils have all fought, have rich experience in actual combat, and have repeatedly defeated the elite main forces of the Japanese army in Burma and other places, rescued the British army surrounded by the Japanese army, and is known as the elite of the Chinese expeditionary force, and even the American generals who have always looked down on the Kuomintang army are full of praise for the New Fifth Army, believing that in the Kuomintang army, only the Fifth Army is the real trump card.
After receiving the order of the Xuzhou Suppression Headquarters, Commander Zheng quickly analyzed it carefully on the military map, believing that in order to rescue Jia Wang's new 18th Army, he could not go directly to Jia Wang to join the battle, but should start from the north of Xuzhou, insert himself behind the Zhou Wu Department that was storming the Taierzhuang area, and surround Zhou Wu on the periphery of Taierzhuang, forcing Zhou Wu to order the team attacking Jia Wang to give up the encirclement and annihilation of the 18th Army's brigade, and turn back to Taierzhuang, so that not only can the surrounded brigade of the new 18th Army be rescued, And it can also form a counter-encirclement of the attack on Taierzhuang, here in Taierzhuang, if there is no accident, the team will stage the "Taierzhuang victory" against the Japanese army ten years ago When Commander Zheng reported this battle plan of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao" to Chief Liu, General Fu General Liu still had the same attitude, noncommittal, he thought that anyway, your new Fifth Army was coaxing, where did you put my old Liu in your eyes, you can do it if you like it. t1706231537:
