At the same time, behind Loushanguan.
Yang Dingguo led hundreds of soldiers from the 100th Regiment and killed them easily.
Faced with such a large amount of automatic firepower, the Guizhou army was unable to fight back at all. Scattered obstructions were ineffective at all, but instead accelerated the pace of their death.
Along the way, Yang Dingguo took the lead in charging and drove the Guizhou army to fight.
Soon, the reserve troops of a battalion of the Guizhou Army rushed over. Listening to the approaching gunshots, the reserve battalion did not choose to continue moving forward. Instead, they used trees and rocks as cover to wait for the arrival of the Red Army.
Seven or eight light machine guns were held tightly, waiting for the Red Army to arrive and then give them a fatal blow.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
What they waited for was not the Red Army, but their own defeated troops.
They will definitely not shoot at their own people. After all, most of them are locals, and many of them know each other or are related by blood.
The consequence of not blocking it was that the defensive front that had been barely formed was overwhelmed, and it was impossible to effectively counterattack in the face of the Red Army following closely behind.
The machine gunners were immediately targeted by Red Army snipers, and some even had more than one bullet hole in their bodies.
However, a battalion of Guizhou troops could not stop them for more than a few minutes under such fierce firepower.
Behind him, a Guizhou soldier with a sinister appearance looked at the fierce firepower of the Red Army. He was so frightened that the corner of his mouth twitched. After slapping his thigh, he hurriedly ran towards the command post.
Before anyone even reached the command post, the voice came in.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law~~~"
In the command post, Wang San, the leader of Hou Zhishan's first regiment, couldn't help but frowned when he heard the noise coming from outside.
"What the hell is this idiot doing?"
Picking up the horsewhip on the side, Wang San walked out, looked at his brother-in-law who was stopped by the guard, and slapped him with two whips.
"Why are you making such a fuss here?"
Liu Wu ignored the pain coming from his body. After breaking free from the restraints of the guards, he quickly came to Wang San and whispered in his ear: "Brother-in-law, it's time for us to run away."
"The Red Army in the back mountain has already attacked, hundreds of them. I saw a lot of machine guns from a distance. The firepower was so fierce that it was impossible for us to stop them."
"I discovered a path two days ago. It's too late for us to run now, but we won't be able to run if it's too late!"
Are the Red Army coming?
That bitch Li Fei dared to lie to me!
Thinking of Li Fei's categorical promise to stop the Red Army in the back on the phone just now, Wang San wished he could go over and shoot him.
"Let's go, let's run first and survive later."
...
Time passed little by little, and at the critical moment of Loushang Pass, the Red Army was still fighting with the Guizhou Army.
Because the Guizhou Army occupies the terrain advantage, the Fourth Red Regiment is indeed very difficult to fight.
"Damn it, what happened to these stupid double-gun soldiers today? They fought so fiercely. I don't know how Yang Dingguo and the others are doing. If it doesn't work, I will lead the charge myself!"
Looking at the battle ahead, Commander Geng was also angered.
Fortunately, Political Commissar Yang was there to persuade him, otherwise he would really have to lead a charge.
"The enemy occupies the terrain advantage. If we charge rashly, we will definitely suffer a lot of casualties. We can't take the lives of the soldiers for fun!"
"Besides, there is Yang Dingguo in the back mountain. You have to believe that we have comrades."
"Just wait a little longer."
...
About half an hour passed.
A violent explosion suddenly sounded from the Guizhou Army's position inside the pass, and the gunfire that suppressed the Fourth Red Regiment became much weaker.
Captain Geng and Political Commissar Yang looked at each other. They knew that Yang Dingguo must have led his men to fight from behind Loushanguan.
Now that the time has come, Geng Biao pulled out the big knife from his back and shouted: "Bullmaster, blow the charge horn!"
"Deep, beep, beep, beep~~~"
The impassioned charge horn sounded in the mountains of Loushanguan in fear of the enemy. The soldiers of the Fourth Red Regiment immediately transformed into howling wild wolves, raised their guns, fixed their bayonets and headed towards Loushanguan. Rush through the pass.
Suddenly attacked from behind, and the enemy from the front launched another charge. The Guizhou army at the pass didn't know for a while to guard against the Red Army on the other side.
They didn't know it, but the Red Army knew it very well.
Yang Dingguo led the soldiers of the 100th Regiment and rushed forward. The submachine gun in his hand kept spitting out deadly tongues of fire. He had no intention of engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.
"Da da da......"
The Guizhou army was beaten so hard that they had no power to fight back. When the Fourth Red Regiment rushed up, they collapsed and ran around.
"The Red Army is coming. Everyone, run away. If it's too late, it'll be too late!"
"His grandma, I just married a daughter-in-law, so I can't just die here like this."
"You bitch, if you have the guts, just keep fucking me and criticize them one by one!"
...
Most of the Guizhou army had no intention of resisting and either surrendered or fled.
Only a small number of Guizhou soldiers chose to resist tenaciously, but what awaited them were hot bullets that could persuade people to do good.
The gunfire gradually stopped, and the enemies at the pass suffered great damage and all retreated. The Red Army followed the defeated enemies and pursued them fiercely.
When we got to the pass, we saw the enemy corpses lying everywhere on the battlefield, stained with blood, and the wounded soldiers howling.
After walking a few steps, I saw several huts and a stone tablet standing with the three characters "Loushanguan" engraved on it. Looking down at several white clouds, I looked up and saw the red sun in the sky. There is indeed a saying of "raising your head, the red sun is approaching, looking back, the white clouds are low". feel.
The defeat is like a mountain, so it seems very appropriate to use it here.
The Guizhou army surrendered, wounded and groaning, dead, and escaped. Weapons, ammunition, rice, cans, clothes, and equipment were everywhere along the way, even the broken sedan chairs in which the officers and their wives sat. Abandoned by the roadside.
At dawn that day, the Fourth Red Regiment planted the Red Army flag on the main peak of Loushanguan and won the first victory in the Battle of Loushanguan.
This battle seemed to go smoothly, and there were no major obstacles in the process.
After taking Loushanguan, he and the regiment leader immediately reported to the Central Revolutionary Committee. All the leaders were quite surprised by the speed of the Fourth Red Regiment.
Yang Dingguo also praised the performance of the Red 100 Regiment.
At the same time, new orders were issued one after another.
The Red 4th Regiment was ordered to act together with the Red 100th Regiment. The target was Tongzi, which was also a strategic location.
If the Red Army wants to rest in Zunyi for a while, then Tongzicheng must be captured and taken into its own hands.
