On the teacher's side, after learning that the remnants of the 12th Corps were escaping, he immediately ordered the troops to take the initiative and pin down the 12th Corps in the river bend area.
Seeing that the troops were trapped in the quagmire, the 12th Corps was ready to fight, and directly ordered the remaining dozen tanks to clear the way, and called for air support to help them break out.
However, there are not as many battle defense artillery and cannons as Li Qiufan in the middle field, so it is somewhat helpless to open the way for the enemy's tanks.
Bullets from machine guns and rifles could not penetrate the armor of the tank at all, and the soldiers of the 12th Corps were behind the tank, so they could not be harmed at all.
Just when the Twelfth Corps was about to rush to their position, suddenly endless artillery shells fell, directly blowing up the infantry behind the tanks.
Several of the tanks were directly hit, and black smoke billowed out instantly.
Just when the soldiers in the middle and field were confused, the sound of a charge horn suddenly came from the direction behind the 12th Corps, and then the figures of the Yizong soldiers appeared.
After getting rid of the surrounded enemy troops, Yizong, as the vanguard, finally caught up with the 12th Corps.
Seeing that the enemy was attacking the midfield position, Erhu immediately reported the enemy's coordinates to Li Qiufan, and then Li Qiufan asked the heavy artillery division to provide artillery support.
After seeing that the enemy army was covered by artillery fire, Erhu immediately asked the bugler to blow the charge horn, and then launched an attack on the enemy army together with the old brigade commander's column.
At the same time, the second and fourth columns and the security brigade were also in place from the flanks. Several troops, together with the troops in the middle field, formed a huge encirclement of the 12th Corps.
Seeing Li Qiufan arriving with his troops, the teacher also gave the order to charge. This was the best time to annihilate the enemy.
"Inform the second and fourth columns and the security brigade to launch an attack on the enemy. Cooperate with the first column and the troops in the middle and field to tear apart the enemy's defense line!"
"In addition, order the heavy artillery division to observe the battlefield situation and carry out artillery suppression and support on their own, especially the middle and field side to pay more attention!"
Seeing that the Twelfth Corps had become a turtle in the urn, Li Qiufan immediately issued an attack order to other departments in an attempt to eliminate the Twelfth Corps in one go.
Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, the 12th Corps was attacked by the pursuers from behind, so it could only defend on the spot.
However, these 60,000 to 70,000 people simply could not withstand the artillery fire suppression of the heavy artillery division, each column, and the center field, let alone block the attack of more than 200,000 people.
After killing nearly 30,000 people, the commander of the 12th Corps chose to surrender because the situation in front of him was unsolvable.
After seeing the enemy surrender, all the People's Liberation Army soldiers on the battlefield cheered. This scene happened to be seen by the enemy pilots who had just arrived.
Seeing that the 12th Corps had been eliminated, and coupled with the intelligence obtained previously, the People's Liberation Army here had dozens of anti-aircraft guns, and the aircraft that came to support immediately returned.
At the same time, Li Qiufan also met with the teacher and others. Li Qiufan looked at the old leader whom he had not seen for a long time, straightened his body and saluted him with a military salute.
"Qiu Fan, you fought well in this battle!"
The teacher was also very happy to see Li Qiufan again. He raised his hand and returned the military salute, then hugged him and patted him on the back.
"Teacher, long time no see. How are you lately?"
Feeling the teacher's closeness, Li Qiufan suppressed his excitement and asked him.
"I'm pretty good, especially after destroying the enemy's 12th Corps. I'm in an even better mood now!"
The teacher smiled and nodded to Li Qiufan, patted him on the shoulder and said.
"By the way, I'm just happy to patronize you. Let me introduce you to a few people!"
After saying that, the teacher seemed to remember something, and pulled Li Qiufan to the front of the leaders of the middle field.
"Everyone, this guy's name is Li Qiufan. He was once my soldier and the boss's favorite general!"
"Thanks to this guy coming from the northwest this time, we avoided huge casualties and completely wiped out the enemy's 12th Corps!"
The teacher took Li Qiufan and introduced him, with a proud look on his face while introducing him.
Li Qiufan looked at the many big guys in front of him, and the excitement he had just suppressed jumped out again. He saw that everyone was so nervous that he could not speak.
"You kid, why are you stuck at this critical moment? You look like a little daughter-in-law whom you haven't seen for a long time. Are you shy when meeting people?"
Seeing Li Qiufan's reaction, the teacher immediately understood what was going on and immediately spoke to relieve him.
Then the senior management of Zhongye took the initiative to say hello to Li Qiufan. Only then did he calm down and start talking with everyone.
After getting to know each other, the teacher pulled Li Qiufan to the side, and then looked at Li Qiufan with some embarrassment.
"What's wrong, Teacher? If you have something to say, just say it!"
Li Qiufan saw that the teacher had something to say, but he seemed to feel embarrassed.
"Qiu Fan, then I'll tell you the truth!"
"This time to eliminate the enemy's twelfth corps, your first corps made a great effort!"
"Especially coming all the way from the northwest to help us, this makes me feel a little embarrassed."
"It's mainly our troops in the middle field. The weapons and equipment of the soldiers are too backward. What I want to tell you is the capture. See if you can give me some face."
The teacher originally wanted to give priority to the midfielders, so he felt a little embarrassed.
In fact, he could have done it directly, but this would hurt his relationship with Li Qiufan, so he discussed it with him in private.
"Teacher, there is no problem with weapons and equipment. I don't even want heavy artillery. Our first corps does not lack these."
"There are just two things. Teacher, can you give us some approval?"
After hearing the teacher's words, Li Qiufan was very understanding. He nodded and agreed, but then asked the teacher for two more things.
"what?"
After hearing Li Qiufan's words, the teacher asked him doubtfully.
"Well, we have no shortage of weapons and equipment, but this time the attack on the 12th Corps consumed a lot of ammunition, as well as artillery shells. Can you replenish this for us?"
"The other ones are the enemy's tanks. I want to shamelessly ask the teacher for a few of them."
Upon hearing the teacher's question, Li Qiufan immediately said what he wanted.
"There is no problem with the ammunition. I will approve it for you even if you don't tell me."
"There's no problem with the cannonballs. After all, you can't just work and ignore the food."
"As for tanks, I need to discuss this with other people. After all, our team is not on the same page!"
After hearing what Li Qiufan wanted, the teacher of ammunition and artillery shells said that it was no problem and that he could make the decision.
But Tank needs to discuss it with other senior officials, after all, this is a big killer.
This kind of thing is not distributed according to merit, but depends on where it can play the greatest role.
