Chapter 129 Revenge for the 38 Zilong commandos!
Ten minutes ago, at the Hongshui River front, the Marine Corps temporary command center had just sent an exposing telegram. Shunzi was extremely anxious. What he hoped most now was that the brigade commander was there.
Shunzi knew his own limitations. He could lead a battalion into battle, but it was difficult for him to control the military operations of an entire regiment alone.
But there was no other way. The brigade commander had only a few capable personnel. He couldn't possibly hand over the most crucial mission to the division commander of the 25th Army. The Marine Corps couldn't afford to lose that person!
Fortunately, the brigade commander always appeared in the sky during these two days, constantly making adjustments and instructions, so there was no trouble.
According to the brigade commander's deployment, the mission of the main force of the Marine Corps is simple and difficult!
At the same time, they launched a powerful attack on the 88th Division of the Central Army and the 45th Division of the Gui Army on both sides of the Hongshui River, taking advantage of the situation to provoke an all-out war between the Central Army and the Gui Army, thus triggering a chain reaction...
But this mission was also very difficult. The first thing was to hide their tracks. This was not so difficult. Most of the infantry's motorized vehicles were hidden in the central part of southern Guizhou. The two battalions changed into yellow and blue uniforms respectively and marched on foot into southeastern Guizhou, with only a few baggage trucks accompanying them.
The most difficult thing is actually electronic interference. The brigade commander imagined a possibility. Even if there was an exchange of fire between Nanjing and the Guangxi clique, if the losses were not great, both sides might choose to make concessions. That would not work.
Therefore, blocking the communication between the two sides became the top priority. The two sides had to fight to the death. Large communication vehicles were too conspicuous, so small jammers with their own batteries became the first choice.
Therefore, the first task of the Marine Corps Battalion upon arriving in Qiandongnan was to set up signal jammers over a wide area. To this end, Shunzi specially transferred the Zilong Commando from Pingnan to provide reconnaissance and support for each team.
Everything was going smoothly. The jammers had been set up almost completely, and most of the teams had even returned safely. However, problems arose with a few groups that lagged behind.
The mission area was full of enemy troops, so we could not operate in the uniforms of the Gui army. All the soldiers were dressed as ordinary people, including the female soldiers from the regiment's communications platoon who came to support us.
Just by chance, this group encountered the Gui army squad in heat...
The accompanying soldiers didn't give the other side a chance at all. The battle started immediately and the leading major was killed on the spot. The key point was that the soldiers were not clean and two of them escaped...
It's not hard to imagine that with the death of a battalion commander in the Gui army, a large-scale investigation would surely begin...
Thinking of this, Shunzi was at a loss and lifted his foot to pull out a cigarette from his socks...
Smoke curls...
Damn it! The brigade commander is right! Women and the like only slow down my sword-drawing speed!
There is no way around it. There is a serious imbalance between men and women in Pingnan, and the army has strict control. Soldiers will find female soldiers, let alone female animals, very beautiful.
Especially when they happened to see the three female soldiers, the troops were like chicken blood, praising them like treasures! Where could they see female soldiers being bullied? They didn't take the initiative to continue attacking the Gui army, which was already very restrained!
Suddenly, Shunzi's expression tightened. Ah! I'm a little worried about Pingnan!
The Marine Corps has three female detachments.
The first is the regimental communications platoon, the second is the art troupe, and the third is the women's company of the Second Guard Battalion!
Pingnan is still under siege by bandits. Can the women's company take on the task of defense?
Shunzi shook his head suddenly and couldn't help but curse himself, "Just take care of yourself! With the brigade commander here, Pingnan will definitely be fine!"
At this moment! The radio operator came running!
"Report! Urgent message from the brigade commander!"
After Shunzi put down the telegram, before he could give any order, two more telegrams arrived, one from the brigade commander and the other from Army Commander Wang.
The brigade commander’s telegram was very short!
'agree!'
The urgent telegram from the 25th Army was very long!
'Presented to Xu Shangfeng and transferred to the front line of Hongshui River:
The original plan was to launch the attack after dusk. With two hours left until dark, there's no cover of darkness, and the combat area can't be covered with large amounts of smoke bombs. It's recommended that the Marines attack closer...
Please Xu Shangfeng make the decision!
Although Shunzi did not have much command experience, he could understand what Commander Wang meant. The original plan was to use the cover of darkness so that the Marine Corps would not have to get too close to attract a fight between the Central Army and the Gui Army. Now that there was sufficient light, the Marine Corps had to attack even closer to attract contact between the two sides. It looked like they had to fight desperately!
Shunzi was afraid of the brigade commander and the regimental commander, but he was not afraid of fighting to the death, let alone death! Although the Marine Corps had only been expanded for half a month, it was not a coward!
Pick up the walkie-talkie!
"Attention, all teams! The situation has changed. To ensure the successful completion of the mission... Do you remember what the brigade commander said?
The Marine Corps is particularly good at fighting, enduring hardships, and assaulting...
In this battle, many of our comrades may not be able to return, but our Marine Corps will never surrender and will not miss any advanced equipment!
After a while, walkie-talkies came with the determination statements of each team!
"Yes! We will never surrender! Please rest assured, Brigade Commander and Regimental Commander, all our soldiers have prepared the glorious bullets!"
...
Shunzi gave the order decisively.
"Attention, follow the planned plan and launch an all-out attack!"
...
---------------
On the south bank of the Hongshui River, several camouflage nets were suddenly lifted up, revealing already dug trenches and artillery positions underneath.
The long-range artillery support of the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Marine Corps, plus the firepower temporarily reinforced by Xu Zhenhua, were all on the south bank, disguised as artillery fire from the Gui army.
After a while, ten 12-round 107 rocket launchers and ten 10mm artillery guns completed their launch preparations!
"Attention, Gun Position 1, Gun Position 11! Target: Enemy 88th Division, 2nd Regiment. Single shot targeting. Ready! Fire!"
Mortars and rockets fired simultaneously...
Quick! The walkie-talkie rang!
"Report to the Blue Army artillery, the first shot hit!"
at the same time!
"All gun positions fire! Ready! Fire!"
--------------
At the headquarters of the 88nd Regiment of the 2th Division, the regimental commander, accompanied by several subordinates, was leisurely playing Mahjong. He was lucky today and won 13 times in a row!
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound came from above my head, and before I could react, explosions rang out one after another!
"Bombardment!"
The team leader overturned the card table, stood up quickly and rushed out the door. Just as he stood up, he looked up and saw hundreds of smoke columns in the southern sky, and a whistling sound rang in his ears!
"hidden..."
Before he could finish his words, everything went dark before his eyes and he knew nothing!
The entire 2nd Regiment was engulfed in flames...
...
At the same time, the observer in the distance used a walkie-talkie to report different coordinates to the Blue Army artillery.
...
The 88th Division headquarters was far away from the 2nd Regiment, but the rumbling sound of artillery fire could still be heard.
"Report to the division commander! Urgent report from the 1st Regiment! The 2nd Regiment is under devastating artillery fire, coming from the south bank, in the direction of the Gui Army's 45th Division!"
The division commander had been looking through the telescope for a long time and could see that the artillery fire was coming from the south, so he immediately made a judgment!
"Quick! Send a message to the commander! The Gui army has launched an attack on our 88th Division, using at least a hundred artillery pieces..."
-------------
At the temporary command post of the Marine Corps, Shunzi was smoking again, feeling nervous, very nervous!
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie rang!
"Report! Dense radio waves detected from the direction of the 88th Division!"
Shunzi held his wrist and calculated the time. It would take at least 3 minutes to send a complete telegram!
3 minutes till here!
"North bank of the Red River, activate full-frequency electronic jamming!
Pillar! The heavy artillery battalion immediately opened fire on the Gui Army's 45th Division!
1st Battalion, immediately launch an assault on the 88th Division in front! Avenge the 38 Zilong commandos!
"Yes! Revenge!"
--------------
Fifteen minutes later, the highest office in Nanjing Qilu was stunned for a full minute after receiving the urgent report. The Guangxi clique had once again taken the initiative to attack Bai's residence! And it was a surprise attack!
"Commander, we can't contact the 88th Division. I think the radio station is destroyed!"
"Order the Air Force to immediately conduct reconnaissance in the Southwest Guizhou region! Quick!"
"Yes!"
---------------
25nd Army Military Headquarters.
"Any news about Hongshui River?"
"Report! Not yet! Commander, the battle has just begun, the news won't come that fast!" The adjutant kindly explained.
Wang Jialie lit a cigarette, he was really anxious!
"What do you know? If the war starts early, the most dangerous troops on the front line of Hongshui River will not be in danger, but Pingnan! What I am most worried about now is that the Guangxi clique will immediately launch a full-scale attack on Nanjing. At that time, Pingnan will bear the brunt of the attack, and the 44th Division has not been transferred yet!
No! Send a message to Shengze immediately! "
