Seeing that it was getting late, Ma Bufang could only order to stop the attack and wait for the cavalry brigade to arrive tomorrow to see if he could tear a hole from the side.
At the headquarters of the 2nd Regiment, the leader Li Jie looked at the battle report with satisfaction: "The results are good. This is the first battle of our regiment. Today we were able to kill more than 700 enemy soldiers. Our army suffered very little losses. It seems that this young man Neither are horses."
The chief of staff laughed at the side and said: "With our firepower, let alone Qingma, I would dare to fight a brigade of Fengjun one on one!!"
"Hahaha." Everyone laughed.
The chief of staff is an outstanding graduate of the military academy, so he was assigned to the front-line chief of staff position.
"Captain, where do you think the Commander-in-Chief's weapons came from? Did he really buy them from Zeus Arms Company?" Li Jie looked at the Chief of Staff with some vigilance, and saw that his curious eyes were not very deliberate, so he said : "We don't know where the weapons come from. I only know that if the commander-in-chief asks me to go east, I will never go west. Even if I go to fight the old man now, I will go. We can't be sorry to the commander-in-chief."
The chief of staff also nodded: "Yes, without the commander-in-chief, my whole family might starve to death. If the commander-in-chief can bring us a stable and happy life, we will follow the commander-in-chief. We will turn him upside down!"
"Report, telegram from division commander."
Li Jie received the telegram, and Li Zhi commended him, saying that the 2nd Regiment fought very well today, but news came from the Intelligence Bureau that an enemy cavalry unit was approaching, and they must do a good job in defense. The 1st Regiment and the 3rd Regiment will Surround the enemy and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
This was Lu Bohan's policy. He wanted to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop. He used the 2 regiments to lure the enemy's main force, and the other two regiments surrounded him from the sides.
Now the main battle force has a large number of new recruits, and they have only been trained for a month or two. They must fight with superiority and fight with the wind, otherwise they are really afraid that this group of new recruits will cause the war to fail.
Different from the 2nd Regiment, Ma Bufang kept sighing in the headquarters. Not only did his eyes have thick dark circles, but he could not see any sparkle at all. The same was true for the soldiers outside. It was really scary. In normal battles, he charged at the enemy in a wave. The army was in chaos, but the 2nd regiment was different. The trenches were dug at right angles, the bunkers were strong, and the firepower was fierce. This was a once-in-a-lifetime moving target. The veterans scolded the new recruits one by one. Regardless of whether they hit or not, the bullets kept raining. , it was impossible to rush through, but suffered serious damage. I finally launched the only two World War I mountain cannons in the brigade, but only fired 5 or 6 rounds before they were covered by dozens of enemy shells. The recruits were not very accurate. But there were so many artillery shells that the ground washing was over. Ma Bufang's artillerymen were dumbfounded. The artillery shells kept falling around, killing all those who were not killed by the shock.
Ma Bufang sent someone to ask for help from his old father. Because of the decentralization of power, Ma Qi rarely interfered with his son, but now someone was trying to rob him of his territory. Moreover, his son never asked him for help, but now he actually asked him to send troops quickly.
Ma Qi didn't want to go against Zhang Yunhan. He saw it clearly during the last battle at Liupanshan. He couldn't afford to offend this man. Even with one against two, he could beat him to the point where he couldn't find the southeast, northwest, and now one against one. , don’t mention it.
Ma Qi had no choice but to stop the enemy. Otherwise, if the enemy marched straight in, where would his face be? If his son is gone, how can he see his ancestors? So he took the only two remaining brigades to rescue his son.
January 15, 1928 was a small year in the north, but Qing Province was not lively.
Chichi~
Boom!
The rapid sound in the air woke up many soldiers. With the experience of being bombed yesterday, Ma Bufang's soldiers quickly fell to the ground one by one.
"Shell attack!! 1. Dodge quickly!"
A company commander hurriedly shouted for the troops to evade. As a result, a shell fell next to him in the next second. The flames and smoke dispersed, leaving only a smoking crater. As for the company commander, he had already become a shell. A cloud of blood mist.
Huang Shilin looked at the battalion commander excitedly: "Are we going to launch an attack? The gunfire was so fierce that the soldiers were crushed."
The battalion commander shook his head: "Without orders, we can't attack."
Huang Shilin was a little tired: "Why don't you fight? Why wait? Just rush over and have a fight."
The battalion commander smiled and shook his head: "If you don't fight, then you have other plans. Think about it, why not fight?"
"The division commander, or the army commander must have a plan."
Huang Shilin nodded as if he understood.
"Report!! Enemy cavalry troops were spotted on our flank!!"
The battalion commander quickly stood up: "Everyone returns to their posts immediately!! The artillery machine guns can fire freely when the enemy enters the range!"
While the battalion commander was making arrangements, he sent someone to report to the regimental commander.
The cavalry that came was the only remaining cavalry regiment under Ma Qi. After Ma Bufang heard from his subordinates that the cavalry regiment was in place, he immediately ordered everyone to prepare for the attack. This was his only chance to make a comeback, but he might never be able to do so. The two surrounding regiments are waiting for Ma Qi's main force. Even if the 2nd regiment's position is breached, there are still two regiments outside.
Let’s talk about the Ma Jiajun. The Ma Jiajun is actually an army of bandits. They hardly do anything to protect the people. Instead, they are keen on burning, killing and looting!
Killings have filled Qing Province for more than ten years. They take pleasure in killing people. In order to increase their entertainment level, they even play killing games through competitions!
More than 10,000 herdsmen were captured and slaughtered by the Ma Jiajun. The living people were used as targets for shooting. Even the elderly and children were not spared. They were worse than the devil.
Ma Jiajun's biggest hobby is to rob civilian girls. Wherever they go, some girls are always insulted and killed, and some are taken away by them and taken back to bandits' dens for abuse. Many girls are tortured to death, and many The girl was not willing to be so ravaged and committed suicide by hitting the wall.
The Ma Jiajun not only treated civilians like this, but also treated some enemy prisoners like this. Whenever the Ma Jiajun passes by, the dogs will have the surname Ma. But every stone here is the property of the Ma Jiajun! !
Zhang Yunhan has long hated the three northwest horses. Now that he has the chance, he will never show mercy and kill them? So kind, go dig for coal! Go build the road! As long as you are not tired enough to die, just do it to death!
Back on the battlefield, the cavalry regiment was about to attack, but suddenly received Ma Qi's order, so it withdrew again and waited for Ma Qi's arrival.
Why did Ma Qi come so quickly? This is because there is no strategic location near Xiping, it is easy to attack, and it is close to Gan Province, so the 1st Division went straight to Xiping at that time, and the battle with Ma Bufang was also very close to Xiping.
There is basically no industry in Qing Province, and the Ma Jiajun mainly has three brigades. One was wiped out before, and now there are only two brigades, plus a cavalry regiment. These troops are basically stationed closer to Xiping. This is also for Safety, who would have thought that someone came straight to Huanglong.
