But before the old fox could encircle Li Qiufan's regiment, Li Qiufan had already led his troops out of Jiming Township and moved towards Micang Mountain.
The Second Corps, after discovering the situation in Chengkou and Zhenping counties, immediately launched an attack on the two counties according to the planned plan.
The remaining troops in the two counties had no ability to resist, and were directly occupied by the Second Corps.
The old fox was shocked when he received the news that Chengkou and Zhenping counties had been lost. He never expected that there would be People's Liberation Army behind him.
The old fox knew the importance of these two counties, and immediately transferred back the 18th Corps, which was rushing to Jiming Township, in an attempt to take back the two counties of Chengkou Zhenping.
The 18th Corps immediately rushed back after receiving the order and launched an attack on Chengkou County and Zhenping County.
However, they did not expect the strength of the Second Corps, and only thought that the other party had taken advantage of the loophole to capture the two counties.
When the fighting actually started, the commander of the 18th Corps and the old fox were dumbfounded. They did not expect that the People's Liberation Army that captured the two counties would have 70,000 to 80,000 people.
With the strength of the Second Corps and the terrain advantages of Chengkou and Zhenping counties, the Eighteenth Corps simply cannot defeat it.
Moreover, the 18th Corps only has about 50,000 troops, which is inferior to the 2nd Corps in terms of strength comparison, not to mention that they have terrain advantages.
Seeing this, the old fox could only let the 18th Corps confront the People's Liberation Army in Chengkou, Zhenping and Ping counties first, and then wait for the large forces to deal with the People's Liberation Army in Jiming Township.
However, after the newly formed Seventh Corps and Fourteenth Corps arrived at Jiming Township, they found that the People's Liberation Army here had long disappeared.
The old fox was almost furious when he heard the news. He didn't expect that after all his troubles, he didn't even see the real owner and lost two counties.
The angry old fox immediately gave the order to the newly formed 7th Corps to rush to Chengkou County and assist the 18th Corps to recapture it.
Then he gave orders to the two armies of the 14th Corps and the 16th Corps to rush to Zhenping County and capture them.
In this way, the enemy force that the Second Corps will face will be more than double that of our own.
But before the enemy troops could arrive, Li Qiufan had already arrived at Micang Mountain and surrounded the Fifth Corps.
This time Li Qiufan still acted with great fanfare, so the Fifth Corps quickly discovered the situation, and then sent a telegram to the old fox asking for help.
After the old fox received the telegram from the Fifth Corps, his blood pressure rose like a rocket.
He never expected that as soon as he turned around after his butt was stolen, he would be fucked again.
But the Fifth Corps had to be rescued. After all, if the territory was lost, it could be regained. It would be difficult to reorganize without the troops.
The old fox had no choice but to send a telegram to the two armies of the 15th Corps, asking them to go to Micang Mountain to support the 5th Corps.
At the same time, a telegram was sent to the newly formed Seventh Corps, which was rushing to Chengkou County, asking it to change its route to Micang Mountain and cooperate with the two armies of the Fifteenth Corps to rescue the Fifth Corps.
Li Qiufan had already sent people to keep an eye on the two armies of the 15th Corps. After learning about each other's actions, Li Qiufan knew that the fish had taken the bait.
The 15th Corps is stationed on the line from Ziyang County to Zhenba County, not very far from Micang Mountain.
After the opponent dispatched to Micang Mountain for support, Li Qiufan quietly withdrew the First Army and the Fifth Army and rushed to the front line of Sanyuan Town in Micang Mountain to ambush.
Sanyuan Town is the only way for the 15th Corps to rush to the headquarters of the 5th Corps, and its terrain is very suitable for ambush warfare.
The Fifth Corps did not notice this situation, because even if the First Army and the Fifth Army withdrew, there were still nearly 100,000 people from the three armies surrounding them.
Because the two armies of the Fifteenth Corps are relatively close to Micang Mountain, they will arrive faster than the newly formed Seventh Corps.
However, after learning about the strength of the People's Liberation Army in Micangshan, the two armies of the 15th Corps decided to find a place to wait for the newly formed 7th Corps to arrive, and then support the 5th Corps together.
Because if the two of them went there rashly, they would probably get themselves involved.
After some discussion, the two armies accidentally chose the meeting place in Sanyuan Town, a place they thought of with Li Qiufan.
The two armies of the 15th Corps never expected that there would be an ambush in Sanyuan Town, because Sanyuan Town was not very close to the headquarters of the 5th Corps.
They felt that even if the People's Liberation Army wanted to block the attack, they would not go so far, so the two armies entered the boundary of Sanyuan Town without any vigilance.
Erhu's first army was deployed in a place called Anjiashan, which was the only way to enter the hinterland of Sanyuan Town.
The Fifth Army was deployed at Haotouba northwest of Anjiashan, which was further forward than the First Army.
Li Qiufan's plan was to let the Fifth Army let the enemy pass first, and then the First Army would launch an ambush after the enemy troops reached Anjiashan, and then the Fifth Army would be responsible for cutting off their retreat.
At this time, the 234th Army that surrounded the enemy's 5th Army was led by Zhao Gang, while Li Qiufan and Heizi followed the 1st Army and the 5th Army to Sanyuan Town.
Li Qiufan was commanding the battle from the First Army's position, while Heizi was in charge of commanding the Fifth Army. After all, he was also the commander of the Fifth Army.
Before the two corps of the 15th Corps arrived, Heizi did not order the troops to enter the predetermined position, but sent a few people to keep an eye on the enemy's team.
After all the opponents had passed Haotou Dam, he led his troops into the position.
Heizi was also afraid that the other party would be too vigilant. If someone were sent to explore the route in advance, they would be at risk of being exposed.
However, it turned out that Heizi was overly worried. The enemy army did not think about this at all and headed towards Anjiashan without any precautions.
After Li Qiufan received the news that the enemy troops had passed through Haotouba, he immediately ordered the troops to prepare.
It didn't take long for the enemy to appear in his sight. All the soldiers began to pull the bolt of the gun to load the bullet, and at the same time unscrewed the back cover of the grenade and took out the tab.
"beat!"
After watching the enemy troops step into the ambush position, Li Qiufan immediately gave the order to fire.
Then the mortar regiment belonging to the First Army began shelling, and countless shells began to explode among the enemy crowd.
At the same time, the light and heavy machine guns also started firing, and grenades were thrown out one after another.
The two armies of the 15th Corps were immediately stunned. They never expected to be ambushed in Sanyuan Town.
Since the First Corps occupied a favorable position first, the two companies of the Fifteenth Corps could not find any bunkers that could block bullets, because except for the direction of Haotouba behind them, Li Qiufan had deployed firepower points in other directions.
