Now in the eyes of the soldiers of the Jinsui Army, Li Qiufan is comparable to the King of Hell in the Netherworld. He can kill thousands of people just by opening his mouth and shutting up. How courageous is this.
At this point, Li Qiufan also had his first nickname, a nickname that would frighten enemies in the future: "The Living King of Hell!"
After making arrangements, Li Qiufan didn't have time to count the casualties, so he left one regiment behind and led other troops to the location where Heizi was trapped.
Before setting off, Li Qiufan did not forget to send a telegram to Li Yunlong and asked him about the situation there.
Li Yunlong responded quickly, saying that the situation on his side was very good and that he did not pay attention to future enemies at all.
Because the Jinsui Army figured out the strength of Li Yunlong's troops, and did not know that Li Qiufan had left a brigade for him.
The Jinsui Army only sent two divisions there and did not look down on Li Yunlong at all.
In fact, the senior leaders of the Jinsui Army originally planned to send only one division, but because of someone's urging, another division was added.
The total strength of the Jinsui Army in the two divisions is just over 10,000, which is less than the two brigades of Li Yunlong and the Fourth Brigade combined.
The weapons and equipment are even worse, not to mention the equipment of the troops under the independent division. Li Yunlong's side is even better.
Although Li Yunlong's troops have not recovered their strength and most of them are new recruits, their weapons and equipment are definitely top-notch!
And through their own capture and the support of Lao Jizi and Li Qiufan, the former artillery battalion has been expanded into an artillery regiment, and its firepower has been raised to a higher level.
With such a double advantage, Li Yunlong really fought with pride in this battle.
I was so angry in the last battle of Taiyuan that I took it all on the Jinsui Army. The two divisions of the Jinsui Army suffered terribly.
"Call Li Yunlong back and ask him to resolve the battle as soon as possible, and then go support the second and third brigades!"
After learning that the situation at Li Yunlong's place was very good, Li Qiufan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the two routes were not attacking at the same time, otherwise he would have been unable to do anything at the same time.
Li Qiufan was on the march in a hurry, Li Yunlong also launched a counterattack after receiving the telegram, and Heizi was in a bit of trouble.
After the Jinsui Army surrounded the Second and Third Brigades, they immediately increased their strength here. A steady stream of Jinsui Army was gathering here.
"Deputy Commander, we have repelled six of their attacks. These guys are really jealous!"
The commander of the second brigade, Lu Ming, frowned and looked at the Jinsui Army, and said to Heizi on the side.
"We are unlucky. We didn't expect that the Jinsui Army would dispatch so many people on this route. It seems that this is their main attack direction!"
Heizi lit a cigarette and held it in his mouth, rubbing his shoulders that were sore from swinging the knife.
"Deputy Commander, do you think we can survive?"
Lu Ming suddenly asked, leaving Heizi a little confused as to how to answer.
"Haha, I know we are probably doomed. I'm either scared or I won't be able to fight with the teacher in the future. It's a pity."
Lu Ming shook his head. He had never been afraid of death. He was just afraid that he could no longer follow Li Qiufan and could no longer be with these old brothers.
"Don't worry, we will definitely defend until big brother arrives! There will be more battles in the future!"
Heizi patted Lu Ming's shoulder, then picked up the machete on his gun and waited for the enemy's next attack.
In fact, he didn't know what was going on, and what he said just now was just to comfort Lu Ming.
Looking at the increasing strength of the Jinsui Army, Heizi also felt that they were doomed this time.
But no matter life or death, he will fight until the last moment, and he will not embarrass the independent division! An embarrassment to his elder brother Li Qiufan!
After a while, the Jinsui Army once again organized an attack and rushed towards Heizi's position from all directions.
"Brothers, get ready! These idiots are here again!"
Heizi shouted towards the position, then clenched the gun in his hand and stood ready.
When the Jinsui Army was about to rush to the 200-meter position, Heizi was about to give the order to fire when suddenly a series of screams came.
"Boom boom boom..."
Countless artillery shells fell on the crowd of Jinsui Army, directly surrounding Heizi's position, and there was a full bloom!
When Heizi saw the explosion, he was stunned for a moment, and then became ecstatic. He knew that this was the support from the heavy artillery brigade, which could finally relieve them of the pressure.
"Brothers! The heavy artillery brigade has arrived with support. The division commander and others are about to arrive. I am holding on!
After Heizi was happy, he did not forget to cheer up the surviving soldiers and stimulate their fighting spirit.
Sure enough, after Heizi's words, the soldiers regained hope of living and clenched the guns in their hands.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, the artillery of your independent division really makes Chu jealous!"
In the Jinsui Army camp, a man couldn't help but sigh when he saw the explosion. This man was Chu Yunfei.
Although Chu Yunfei is still only a brigade commander, based on his ability and the high regard of the senior officials, he is responsible for this operation.
This is why Heizi suffered such a big loss from the Jinsui Army. If Li Qiufan knew that Chu Yunfei was taking the lead in this operation, he would definitely go to this route to defend himself.
"Order all ministries to continue the attack. This is only artillery support from the enemy. As for reinforcements, there will be no reinforcements!"
Chu Yunfei gave the order calmly, and holding a wine glass in his right hand, he raised it to his mouth and took a sip.
Before the Jinsui Army took action this time, Chu Yunfei thought that the first force they had to face would definitely be Li Qiufan's independent division.
Because after the last battle in Taiyuan, he found out where Li Yunlong was stationed and immediately went to visit him.
During this period, he asked Li Yunlong about Li Qiufan.
And he also received news from Li Yunlong that Li Qiufan's residence was not far from him.
Of course, this was Li Yunlong's unintentional move. He just wanted to show off his little brother at the time, and he didn't expect to reveal it.
After knowing this situation, Chu Yunfei carefully planned how to deal with Li Qiufan's troops before taking action.
Having seen the battle scenes of the Independent Division with his own eyes, Chu Yunfei knew that fighting against this unit would cost a lot, even if his strength was several times greater than that of the Independent Division.
After much consideration, Chu Yunfei decided to let Li Qiufan divide his troops and defeat them one by one.
When he first learned that Li Qiufan was not among the surrounded Eighth Route Army, Chu Yunfei felt regretful that he was not caught immediately.
But it was just a pity, because getting rid of the two brigade queens in front of him would be equivalent to breaking Li Qiufan's arm. He was also very satisfied with this result.
But what Chu Yunfei didn't know was that the battle on Li Qiufan's side was over, and support would be coming soon.
Moreover, the three divisions over there were completely defeated and no telegram was even sent, so Chu Yunfei did not know about this situation.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, I really look forward to meeting you again!"
Chu Yunfei raised the corners of his mouth slightly and drank all the wine in the glass, imagining the scene of meeting Li Qiufan again in his mind.
