The artillery of the Kuomintang army, which received the bombing order from the regiment commander, immediately began to bombard the north side of the Huhe River Bridge, and suddenly one after another shells fell and exploded around the bridge, and several PLA brothers who destroyed the explosives buried by the enemy in the bridge hole under the bridge were killed by the shells, and their bodies were directly lifted up by the blast wave of the explosion, and fell into the Huhe River below the bridge, and were swept away by the torrent for a while, without a trace.
The reconnaissance battalion commander saw that the enemy was crazy and was about to destroy the bridge over the Hun River, so he hurriedly stepped forward and dismantled the explosive detonators in the bridge with his brothers, and the two engineer soldiers were sweating profusely looking for the fuse, the enemy's shells were getting closer and closer, and they were almost about to blow up the bridge here.
Before I can finish this bridge over the Hun River, the large army will arrive by train, and if the enemy blows up the bridge by coming, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The commander of the reconnaissance battalion shouted to his brothers: "Rush to the center of the bridge and destroy the enemy blocking the bridge, and the sapper brothers hurry up to find those and dismantle the explosives" At this time, the guerrilla leader arrived with his brothers, and they were ordered to follow Huang Shuisheng and they got off the train at a place five miles north of Guzhen, and rushed here by small road.
The reconnaissance battalion commander saw that the comrades of these guerrillas had come at a good time, and hurriedly nodded to them, and led the brothers of the second company to launch a fierce attack on the center of the bridge, the enemy tanks on the bridge were desperately bombarding, and the light and heavy machine guns on the fortifications were also spraying out tongues of fire, and the brothers had not yet rushed to the front, they were knocked down by the enemy's machine guns, and the soldiers suffered great casualties, but the reconnaissance battalion commander had no choice but to order the brothers to rush forward again, and if it was too late, the large army would suffer.
The sapper brothers in the bridge finally found the fuses, hurriedly dismantled them carefully, and threw them into the river below, and the guerrilla leader and his brothers carried down all the explosive bags, it would be a pity if so many explosives were thrown into the river, and they could be kept to deal with the enemies on the bridge Huang Shuisheng's train had stopped on the north side of the bridge at this moment, and when he saw the fire in front of him and the gunfire was intensive, he knew that the reconnaissance battalion must have encountered the enemy guarding the bridge, and he ordered one of his regimental brothers to get off the train immediately and reinforce the reconnaissance battalion, and at the same time ordered the team on the train behind him to set up 75 mountain guns on the train on the spot, and use artillery fire to support the reconnaissance battalion brothers who were desperately attacking the bridge The commander of the reconnaissance battalion suddenly noticed the whistling sound of shells over his head, and hurriedly looked up to see that the shells were coming from the north, and immediately shouted excitedly to the brothers attacking the bridge: "Comrades, our large army has arrived, and it is supporting us with artillery, rush up and destroy those enemies in the center of the bridge."
A burst of shells from the train behind exploded near the Kuomintang tanks parked in the middle of the bridge as a pillbox, and immediately broke the tracks of the tanks, which frightened the tank crews on the façade of those tanks, thinking that they were attacked by a large number of troops, and hurriedly climbed out of the tanks and ran towards the south of the bridge At this moment, the radio station carried by the reconnaissance battalion commander temporarily became an artillery correction communicator, so the accuracy of the 75 mountain guns was getting better and better, and the enemy soldiers behind those fortifications finally could not bear it, and they shouted one after another, turning around and running towards the south of the bridge.
The reconnaissance battalion commander took the opportunity to rush across the center of the bridge with his brothers, occupied the entire Huhe River bridge, and controlled the enemy battalion headquarters at the bridgehead, and the battalion commander guarding the bridge did not have time to run to Guzhen City, so he was caught by the PLA soldiers who rushed over quickly, and the rest of the soldiers who were running slowly raised their weapons to the reconnaissance battalion commander and surrendered, and the Huhe Bridge was finally snatched by the reconnaissance battalion under Huang Shuisheng before it was blown up by the Kuomintang army As soon as the head of the Jia regiment in Guzhen City saw that the bridge had fallen into his hands, he couldn't blow up the Huhe Bridge, which had already been planted with explosives, and felt that the general trend had gone, and he was about to rush in by train, and he had already lost the Huhe Bridge, so he hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat quickly to the south, and he used the radio to ask the surrounding team for help, and at the same time sent a telegram to the old superior Hu Chang for help, asking for reinforcements Huang Shuisheng and they crossed the bridge by train, the enemy has all shrunk back into the city of Guzhen, Huang Shuisheng carefully looked at the terrain on the train for a while, looked at his watch, the time is already more than four o'clock in the morning, there are still three hours before the day is about to dawn, must be captured in these three hours, otherwise it will be delayed until early tomorrow morning, as soon as the enemy's plane comes, the siege team will be dangerous.
Huang Shuisheng ordered his three regiments to launch a fierce attack on Guzhen at the same time, and suddenly all kinds of large artillery and small artillery were fired towards the position of Guzhen, and even those explosive bags snatched from the bridge hole of the Huhe Bridge came in handy, and were taken by the brothers of the commando team, and blew up the city wall outside Guzhen, a large number of commando brothers swarmed in, and the enemy's wall defense line in Guzhen collapsed, and a large number of Kuomintang soldiers surrendered to the People's Liberation Army under Huang Shuisheng one after another, and several Kuomintang soldiers who ran fast ran to Commander Jia out of breath to report to him: "Tuanza."
Oh no, the walls have been blown up, and they are pouring in, and there are about 10,000 people to see them."
When Commander Jia heard this, his body shook violently, his own reinforced regiment had a total of less than 4,000 people, and this time he actually dispatched a large force of 10,000 people to deal with him, that was too much to look up to himself, knowing that this time Guzhen could not be defended, he sent a telegram to the outside for help, but there was no response, Commander Jia was desperate at the moment, and after sending a desperate message to his old superior, Chief Hu, he ordered the troops to withdraw from Guzhen, and each of them fled for their lives, he was the commander who guarded Guzhen, and he should be with Guzhen.
A gunshot rang out, Regiment Commander Jia fell to the ground with a bang, and the adjutants next to him hurriedly ran over to see that the regiment commander had committed suicide by swallowing a gun, his head was blown up by a bullet from a large-caliber pistol, and red and white fluids such as brain plasma and blood flowed out, which was really miserable to watch.
Several adjutants still have a conscience, as soon as they saw that the regiment commander was dead, they hurriedly lifted the corpse of the regiment commander Jia, and desperately retreated in the direction of Bengbu in the south, and the main force of Huang Shuisheng behind quickly occupied the entire Guzhen, and the soldiers who had no time to escape quickly raised their guns and surrendered to the PLA, and the traffic artery Guzhen on Jinpu Road returned to the hands of the PLA, at this moment there were still two hours before dawn, and the people in the city heard the gunfire protruding, so they got up to see the excitement, and then when they heard that the PLA team entered the city, He fell asleep again with peace of mind, and said: "It's okay, the Kuomintang soldiers are gone, the People's Liberation Army is here, and it's too peaceful here."
