"Yes" Gao Wei waited for his words, saluted Fu Zuoyi, put his legs on the horse's belly, and conveyed orders to the troops in front

The soldiers of the [-]th Division entered Pingxingguan, and found that apart from the corpses lying on the ground, they were the wounded leaning against the city wall. Their faces had indifferent eyes, as if they had seen through the world of mortals.

The medical system of the Northwest Army has been relatively complete. After the troops occupied Pingxingguan, the medical team also began to treat the wounded. At this time, there is no distinction between the Jin Army and the Northwest Army. Everyone is wounded.

Some wounded soldiers knew that they would not be able to stand up in battle for the rest of their lives. Thinking of this, many soldiers began to sob and cry as if it was contagious, and slowly the wounded soldiers began to cry

This is the cruelest part of war. Most of them serve as soldiers to support a large family. This time I am disabled, and I don’t know how my family will live in the future, and now I am a prisoner. If I had known this, I would be better off being bombed. Die, at least you can get some pension

Let the [-]th Division stay at Pingxingguan to clean up the battlefield. The [-]th Division, which had been resting for a long time, rushed to catch up with the Jin army. Li Long had the same idea as Fu Zuoyi. )

Chapter 54 Capture Fu Zuoyi Alive

Chapter 54 Capture Fu Zuoyi Alive

The No.15 Division of the Northwest Army did not go to capture Wutai, but went straight to Pingxingguan.In this way, Kong Fanxuan's troops would face the interception of the [-]th Division and the pursuit of the [-]th Division behind them. The situation was not optimistic.

Fu Zuoyi missed one thing. The Northwest Army didn't bring their heavy weapons, but went into battle just like them.

It's no wonder that the Northwest Army gives others the impression that it can only win battles with good equipment and strong firepower.But I don't know what kind of training they received in the military training camp. Armed cross-country and rapid marches are commonplace.

At night, the Jin army found a place to camp. The troops had been running for a day, so they could take a good rest this time.If Fu Zuoyi had the perspective of God, he would find that two troops were approaching his position, and the distance between the three troops was now equidistant, each 15 miles away.

15 miles, if it is an ordinary person who does not carry heavy loads, it will take an hour and a half.Although the soldiers of the Northwest Army are carrying heavy loads, they have to go through the 15 miles after rigorous training, which is an hour.

It's a pity that Fu Zuoyi didn't know it. He thought that the Northwest Bureau was carrying heavy weapons, and it was estimated that it would take a rest for a while, and it would not come so soon.

The Jin army, who had been tired all day, finally waited until it was time for dinner. Just a few miles away from them, the other two troops were sitting there silently eating dry food.

Rong Xiao, the commander of the 20th Division, is a veteran. He is from Yueyang, Hunan.He joined the Wu Yi Army and fought against the Eight-Power Allied Forces.Later, Wu Yi's army was defeated in Tianjin, Nie Shicheng died, and Wu Yi's army dispersed.After that, he transferred to Wu Peifu's subordinates and gradually became a brigade commander.When Tianjin surrendered to the Northwest Army and the [-]th Division was founded, he became the commander of the [-]th Division.He is [-] years older than Zhang Anle. He is very calm in fighting and considers things comprehensively.

He never thought that he would become a division commander less than a year after he surrendered to the Northwest Army. This Commander Zhang is really trustworthy.

Before coming to the Northwest Army, he never thought that fighting would become so easy.Perhaps because Commander Zhang graduated from the artillery department, he attaches great importance to artillery. Now a regiment has much less artillery than his own division under Wu Peifu.Such a powerful firepower has too many advantages. The artillery coverage before the battle has caused a lot of reduction in the number of other troops.Other troops are envious and envious. The transportation of artillery alone is a huge problem, not to mention the biggest problem of shell consumption.

Commander Zhang was tinged with mystery. Some said he was an agent supported by Britain and the United States, while others said he was an agent supported by the Soviet Union.Otherwise, how could he have gone from a military academy graduate to chief of the army and chairman of the Northwest District in just over three years.You must know that most of his classmates are still artillery company commanders, and those who can become battalion commanders are considered to be those who have the ability to drill camps.

"Master, it's time." Rong Xiao's adjutant brought his thoughts back.

Rong Xiao looked at the watch on his wrist, it was already 08:30, the troops had just rested for more than half an hour, and the soldiers' physical strength had also recovered a little bit.

"Order the troops to set off and prepare for battle at any time!" Rong Xiao and Chen Xiaofeng discussed the attack time at [-]:[-] pm, and half an hour is enough for the troops to reach the current position of the enemy.

At the same time, Li Long, the commander of the [-]th Division, issued the same order, and the two troops marched towards the Jin army in the middle who was full and was about to sleep.

The soldiers of the Jin army have been running all day, and they didn't sleep well last night. Who doesn't know how to cherish the opportunity to sleep well today.

Just when the soldiers of the Jin Army had just fallen asleep, there was a sudden sound of "bang bang bang bang".Immediately afterwards, there was a bang, the sound of a shell exploding.

Fu Zuoyi, who seemed to be asleep, got up all of a sudden. This was the sound of mortars. Could it be that the Northwest Army was catching up.

"What's going on here?" He asked loudly, but no one answered him at this time. Everyone was busy preparing for the battle, but he quickly found a staff member.

"Brigade Commander, they are the pursuers of the Northwest Army. They chased after them. They fired the shell just now." The answer given by the staff officer confirmed Fu Zuoyi's guess.

"Why is the speed of the Northwest Army so fast? Order it down, organize troops to resist, and send a telegram to the division commander to ask him what's going on there." Fu Zuoyi quickly issued two orders, and then walked towards the direction of the voice, then The edge is the frontal battlefield.

"Well, what's the situation ahead?" Fu Zuoyi came to Gao Wei and asked.

"Report to the division seat. The opponent should be a division's force. Their firepower is relatively fierce, but they are not in a hurry to attack. I don't know what they are waiting for." Gao Wei reported what he knew to Fu Zuoyi.

"What are you waiting for? Since the enemy launched an attack at this time, it is not waiting for dawn. Is it waiting for reinforcements?" Fu Zuoyi suddenly thought of a worst-case scenario, "You ask your radio operator to send a telegram to the commander and ask him Is there something unusual there?"

"You suspect that the other party is waiting for troops from Dai County." Gao Wei obviously also guessed what Fu Zuoyi was thinking, and he also had an ominous premonition.

"That's right, if Dai County also comes with a division, the other party can easily surround us, and by that time we will be the dishes on the enemy's plate." Fu Zuoyi said with a wry smile.

"The brigade commander is not well. The division called back. They were also attacked by the enemy. The details of the enemy army are not clear yet." Fu Zuoyi's staff officer walked to Fu Zuoyi and said.

"It seems that what I was worried about happened. We are blocked by the enemy. We will not be able to run away until dawn tomorrow." For some reason, Fu Zuoyi felt a sense of relief when he said this.

"Brigade Commander, we can't just sit and wait for death. Instead of waiting until tomorrow to be wiped out, it's better for us to break through now. At least there is still a way to survive." Gao Wei was a little anxious when he heard Fu Zuoyi's words, and he didn't want to be a prisoner.

"Alright, you organize your troops to prepare to break through, and I'll let other troops prepare to support you." Fu Zuoyi knew that this was the only way to do it now, if he continued to spend so much time, he would surely die when it was daytime tomorrow.

Gao Wei called his own guard platoon and called up another battalion to prepare to break out.Gao Wei didn't know where the enemy's encirclement was weak, so he could only walk by feeling.

At this time, the Tenth Division and the Fifteenth Division had basically completed the encirclement of the enemy army. In this case, the Northwest Army's firepower superiority basically won the battle.

Gao Wei led his troops to attack the two wings that he thought were most likely to be weak in defense. At this time, it was very dark, and they walked forward cautiously.

Just then, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Get down!" Gao Wei hurriedly called the troops to get down, but it was too late.

The strong light swept across, and the opponents also began to fire, and some soldiers were hit before they could lie down.

Suddenly, multiple beams of light came over, followed by the sound of mortar firing.

Gao Wei had no way to break out of the encirclement and hurriedly took the soldiers back.

"How is it?" Seeing Gao Wei's return, Fu Zuoyi asked quickly.

"No, the other party has flashlights, and there are a lot of them, and the light is far away. We have no way to get close to them." Gao Wei replied a little depressed.

"It seems that tonight's breakout is not going to work, let's wait until tomorrow to fight again." Fu Zuoyi Ting Gaowei said this, knowing that the opponent had already prepared, so he could only wait until tomorrow.But when it was daytime tomorrow, he would be even more exposed to the eyes of the enemy.

After ordering the troops to strictly defend, Fu Zuoyi received an order from Kong Fanxuan to go to the Taoist Division.

When they retreated, Fu Zuoyi's brigade was behind, Li Weixin's brigade was in front, and Kong Fanji's division headquarters was with Li Weixin, more than 2 miles away.

After a while, Fu Zuoyi walked to the division headquarters, where four regiment commanders, two brigade commanders and a division commander were already waiting there.After giving everyone a sorry look, Fu Zuoyi sat down in his seat.

"Okay, Brigadier Fu is here too. Everyone must know our current situation. The enemy's fifteenth and fourteenth divisions have surrounded us. Someone must have tried to break out of the encirclement just now, but they were all beaten back. Call Everyone has no other intentions, just want to hear everyone's opinions, what should our team do?"

Kong Fanxuan was in a bad mood. Could it be that he couldn't escape this catastrophe?

"What else can we do? Let's split into two groups tomorrow morning, attack the place where the enemy's firepower is weakest, and try to break out." Li Weixin couldn't help complaining.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult. Our army's firepower is not as good as that of the Northwest Army. Now it's dark and we can't break through successfully. It will be even more difficult at dawn." It was Cheng Tingdong who spoke.

"That's the only way to go. I didn't expect the Northwest Army to be so fast. We still underestimated the opponent." Fu Zuoyi explained that the failure was due to underestimating the enemy.

It was just dawn on the second day, which was the most sleepy time of the day, and it was also the last chance for the Jin army to break through.

Fu Zuoyi led the soldiers of the headquarters to attack the left flank. The soldiers of the Northwest Army had already prepared, and greeted Fu Zuoyi with grenades and mortars.
