The third company commander reported to Zhou Dongliang and proposed the idea of searching and advancing, but Zhou Dongliang did not agree. Now the Anhui Army has retreated across the board, and the 11th Regiment is at the forefront of the entire army. Based on the commander's consideration, now
The most important thing to do is not to be distracted and search for the whereabouts of the company, but to move forward quickly and get in front of the Anhui army to block their retreat to Liangxiang, creating an opportunity for the army to eliminate the remaining strength of the Anhui army.
After Zhou Dong made a decision in his conscience, he decisively ordered the three battalions to gather together and attack the Anhui army's position in front of them in a wave attack. The Anhui army's position was also carefully constructed, but the defenders had no morale.
However, the Anhui army was like paper in the hands of the 11th Regiment. Facing the thunderous offensive of the 11th Regiment, the Anhui army only persisted for a short time before being rushed to pieces by the 11th Regiment. Thousands of Anhui troops were like lost dogs.
Retreat in defeat.
Just as the 11th Regiment advanced towards Liulician, Han Baihang, who had already arrived outside Liulician Station, encountered a lot of trouble. He suddenly found himself caught in the middle of two groups of troops. The side-firing bullets were particularly violent, and there were a series of
The soldier was shot and fell to the ground. He hurriedly led his troops to hide in a low-lying area and relied on the terrain to fight back.
Han Baihang only heard the sound of gunfire from both sides, which was like rain, with dozens of heavy machine guns roaring, and the explosions of grenades one after another. In terms of firepower, there were at least thousands of enemies on both sides, and he couldn't help but be frightened.
Breaking into a cold sweat, he thought he had entered an ambush by the Anhui army. He judged that the disparity in strength was too great and that staying where he was would lead to death. He decided to order a breakout and retreat. But at this moment, he suddenly observed the enemy's firepower.
Although it was fierce, the bullets were not fired specifically at him, but more like they were fired at the other side.
This abnormal phenomenon immediately caused him to think deeply. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered an intelligence he overheard at Zhuozhou Station. At that time, it was said that there was internal strife in the Anhui army and the fighting was particularly fierce. Now that he thought about it, this was the only situation that fit the situation at hand.
, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to stop fighting back, and sure enough, the firepower from both sides stopped coming, and bullets flew past their heads.
Han Baihang breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned. Although the battle had nothing to do with him, the firefighting range of the Anhui army happened to cover the Yi Company. The Yi Company could not advance or retreat at this time. Once it left this low-lying terrain and was exposed, it would be rained down by bullets from both sides.
struck by.
Just as he was thinking about how to get out of the predicament, he suddenly heard shouts mixed with gunfire from both sides. He hurriedly listened carefully, and someone vaguely shouted: "The first division regards us as the enemy, big guys, do it with him."
!”
"The Fifteenth Division has rebelled. Brothers, give me a hard beating."
Han Baihang blinked. It seemed that his guess was good. The fighting was between the 1st Division and the 15th Division. Although it was not clear why they were fighting, the situation was worth pondering and might be exploited. He asked the soldiers to move to both sides.
Shouted: "We are from the 14th Division, which part are you from and why are you attacking us?"
Following the shouting, the exchange of fire between the two sides slowed down a little. First, someone from the north shouted: "We are brothers from the 14th Division. We are from the 1st Division. The people from the 15th Division rebelled and joined the Zhili Army. Hurry up."
Help us destroy him together."
The people from the south shouted at the same time: "Fuck you, you motherfuckers. The First Division doesn't treat us as human beings. Brothers of the Fourteenth Division, you'd better not interfere. We'll let you pass."
Han Baihang lay on the ground and thought about it. There was something in the words of both sides. If he did not use it, it would not be his character. He shouted again: "Brothers on both sides, please don't fire. The Zhizhi Army has caught up behind you. Everyone, please withdraw quickly."
, don’t let the Zhijun make dumplings.”
The First Division looked very panicked and shouted: "We want to withdraw, but these bastards from the 15th Division won't let go."
The men of the 15th Division shouted: "I won't survive, so don't even think about running away. Let's all be prisoners together."
Without further ado, someone opened fire angrily, and the two sides started fighting again. They were all fighting to the death, which was more violent than fighting the enemy. It opened the eyes of the soldiers of the company.
Han Baihang couldn't laugh or cry. There was no way to force it like this. All the Anhui troops in Liulician would have fled. This was the meat he was determined to put into his mouth. He had to find a way to break the deadlock. He racked his brains to think.
I thought about it again and again, and all I could think of was a piece of risky chess.
He called his platoon commanders together and said in a low voice: "Our way forward is blocked. If we don't pursue it, our previous hard work will be in vain. Everyone listen to my order and stay put. I am going to the 15th Division."
Position, if I can't come back, you can make your own decisions."
The platoon leaders were startled and said one after another: "The company commander must not go. Although the Anhui army is in internal strife, who can know the thoughts of the 15th Division? We are still waiting here. We didn't call ourselves the 14th Division just now."
Well, we might not be able to escape safely."
In particular, the people in the fifth platoon opposed it the most fiercely. Han Baihang was their backbone. If something unexpected happened, these dozen remnants would have almost no way to survive on the battlefield.
Han Baihang shook his head. The platoon leaders didn't know what he was thinking. It was easy to escape from the guns of the two armies, but this was a cowardly and incompetent move. As a commander, you must be bold and smart to capture every fighter plane on the battlefield. The enemy is currently
The internal strife in the army gave him a crazy idea. As long as he succeeds, his contribution will never be small, and considering the people's hearts, the 15th Division may not necessarily do anything to him.
To be honest, he liked the feeling of fighting wits and courage on the battlefield more and more. He felt that his mind became clearer and more agile, and he felt indescribably energetic.
When it comes to command issues, he has always been dictatorial. He waved his hand vigorously and refused to let the platoon commanders continue to respond. He said loudly: "I am the company commander. Please stop arguing and obey the orders."
The platoon leaders looked at each other in confusion, but could not resist him and had to express their objections silently.
Han Baihang arranged the command sequence and jumped out of the low-lying area. Risking being hit by stray bullets, he crawled towards the 15th Division position. Just after advancing a few meters, a man jumped out from behind him and shouted: "
Company commander, I will follow you!"
Han Baihang looked back and saw that it was Zhou Qing who had followed him out. Seeing that his head was raised a little higher, he hurriedly scolded: "Lower your head, haven't I taught you how to crawl forward?"
The two of them just crawled along the dirt road in the forest for more than 100 meters. Due to the complicated terrain and the need to avoid bullets, it took them more than ten minutes to reach the position of the 15th Division. They could see the 15th Division.
The division was relying on a high ground to fire at the 11th Division. Several Maxim heavy machine guns roared wildly, and the fiery bullet casings even flew beside the two men.
Han Baihang hurriedly shouted to the other side of the position: "Hey, are you a brother from the 15th Division? I'm from the 14th Division."
The defenders on the position were shocked when they heard this. Someone poked his head out despite the hail of bullets, and saw Han Baihang and Zhou Qing lying underneath without daring to move. He hurriedly reported to the commander, and soon someone shouted: "Hurry up.
Come in."
Han Baihang and Zhou Qing saw the opportunity and jumped over the position. As soon as they stabilized their steps, they saw more than a dozen guns aimed at their heads. Han Baihang calmly raised his hands: "I am the 14th Division.
People want to see your supreme commander."
A second lieutenant officer drew his rifle and approached the two men. He looked at the military uniforms they were wearing and suddenly sneered: "Fart, you are obviously Duan Zhigui's bodyguard. You want to trick me. Brothers, shoot and kill these two spies."
There was no hesitation in giving orders on the battlefield. The soldiers pulled the bolts of their guns and pulled the triggers to shoot.
Han Baihang was startled. He suddenly remembered that the military uniform he was wearing was changed on Duan Zhigui's military column. No wonder people misunderstood it. This misunderstanding can cost lives. At the moment of life and death, he said anxiously: "Wait a minute, I'm not the tenth
I’m from the Fourth Division, let alone Duan Zhigui’s guard, I’m from the Third Division.”
The second lieutenant gasped, stretched out his hand to stop the soldiers from firing, raised his eyebrows and asked: "You are from the third division, what credentials do you have?"
