Just as Zhang Xian expected, this night has become the last night of this battle.
Although Zhang Xian deployed Chen Daxing's guard battalion to ambush on several highlands on the banks of the Xiang River south of the Hezhuang position, the battalion's strength was limited after all and could not stop thousands of People's Liberation Army soldiers from taking advantage of the darkness. The south retreated to the north.
The Huaye Column quietly left its position in the early morning. In addition to sending some troops to provide blocking and cover tasks, the main force of the column had already broken away from contact with the National Army's 49th Brigade and 118th Brigade, and was moving in an orderly manner towards the north. Hezhuang came through the gap.
Although they knew that the People's Liberation Army would retreat that night, the two brigade commanders Xu Haibo and Wang Yuanling also tried their best to expand the results of the battle, but the fear of the night battle by the junior officers and soldiers had to make these two brigade commanders Without scruples, they could only conservatively shrink the scattered troops and form a powerful fist to advance slowly. This gave the People's Liberation Army Huaye troops the possibility to retreat calmly.
However, Xu Haibo was more brave than Wang Yuanling. The 49th Brigade was also advancing much faster than the 118th Brigade. However, after fighting against the People's Liberation Army's rear-cut troops, they stopped advancing and did not boldly divide their troops. Instead of pursuing each other, they engaged in an offensive and defensive battle with this rear-cutting force. They were stuck there for a while, unable to move. In the eyes of Xu Haibo and Wang Yuanling, as long as they wait until dawn, it is time for them to show off their power.
However, Chen Daxing's guard battalion fought exceptionally well. Although it was a single battalion, they used the cover of darkness to bluff and attack the passing enemies from a high position. After all, they were defeated soldiers. Although the Huaye Column organized several counterattacks and wanted to take over the position here, they were defeated by the guard battalion commanded by Chen Daxing. Because it was impossible to know exactly the strength of the national army blocked here, after several charges were repelled, the Huaye column gave up the fight for this position. After all, it was still afraid of being surrounded by the enemy again, so it could only hurry up. Time passes quickly regardless of casualties.
Chen Daxing's guard battalion fully followed Zhang Xian's deployment, giving way to the north-south passage and only setting up positions on the side highlands. This was Zhang Xian's cleverness. Because you can quickly pass through this area despite the enemy's firepower, it is not necessary to capture it; and because everyone is doubtful about the accuracy of the enemy's firepower at night, a fluke mentality arises, so after several unsuccessful attempts to capture it, they No longer hesitating, he rushed northward at all costs. In this way, the Chen Daxing Guard Camp was saved and an opportunity was obtained. At that moment, Chen Daxing ordered his troops to use all their strength to block the road under the high ground with powerful firepower. The soldiers of the Huaye troops passing below could not stop hearing the sound of mourning trenches. They continued to fight until dawn, and the entire road was covered with pillows. The book is a piece of paper, and the blood is flowing. For this Huaye column, the number of troops lost while passing through this area was actually higher than the casualties suffered in the confrontation with the 49th Brigade in Chunshui Town.
After the Huaye Column passed the position of the 11th Brigade Guard Battalion, it immediately arrived at the Hezhuang position guarded by the Xianghe Column. The commanders of the two columns bumped heads. The Huaye Column did not stop for a moment and passed here quickly. , rushed to Wufeng Mountain, from where you can go to the base area of ??Ye County to recuperate.
Just when the Huaye column passed the Hezhuang position, Zhang Xian had already received the news and ordered the 31st and 32nd regiments to concentrate artillery fire on the Hezhuang position. At the same time, he used the method of sending small forces to continuously harass the Hezhuang position. Xianghe column, in order to find a weak link and be able to break through in one fell swoop.
"But Liu Xinghua commanded the Xianghe column and remained unmoved at all. Several regiments firmly controlled the two directions of Hezhuang, preventing the reorganized 11th Brigade from making any progress.
Seeing that Huaye's remaining defeated troops had successfully passed through the Hezhuang position, and the forwards had entered the Wufeng Mountain area, Liu Xinghua looked at his watch. The hour hand reached three o'clock in the morning, and there were still more than two hours left. It's almost dawn, and if I don't leave, I'm afraid it will be too late. He thought for a while, hesitated, and finally gave the order to retreat.
Before leaving the Hezhuang position, Liu Xinghua once again came to the headquarters of the First Regiment to visit the officers and soldiers of the First Regiment who had been ordered to stay to cover everyone's evacuation. He always had an ominous premonition that the mission of the First Regiment was too great. It's tough, and you may have to pay a heavy price.
"Commander, has everyone evacuated?" Yin Jian asked first when he saw Liu Xinghua, looking very calm.
Liu Xinghua nodded and told him: "The order to retreat has been issued. The two regiments of the second brigade have left their positions. The second regiment is still in contact with the enemy in the south and has not completely withdrawn!"
Yin Jian thought for a moment and said to Liu Xinghua: "Commander, I will send the first battalion to take over the position of the second regiment!"
 Instead, go directly to the north, the purpose is not to let the enemy notice.
Political Commissar Guan Shan ran back from the position. When he saw Yin Jian, he asked: "Old Yin, the commander and the second regiment have also evacuated. Only our first regiment is left here. Do you think we will evacuate?" ah?"
Yin Jian glanced at him and said: "Although the commander and the second regiment have left, they have not gone far yet. If the enemy notices and catches up, they may not be able to escape. We must hold on for a while longer!"
Guan Shan looked at the sky outside. It was not far from dawn at this time. He couldn't help but said: "Old Yin, didn't the commander tell us to retreat at dawn?"
"Yes!" Yin Jian nodded and told him at the same time: "There is still an hour before dawn!"
Guan Shan smiled and said to him: "Old Yin, to be honest, I don't have any hope that we can break out safely, but I just don't want to see so many of our good comrades wiped out by the enemy!"
Yin Jian couldn't help but frown, and couldn't help but ask: "Political Commissar Guan, what do you mean by this?"
Guan Shan smiled again, then tightened his smile and said very seriously: "Old Yin, I have thought about it for a long time. If we really have to wait until dawn to break out, maybe no one can leave. So I think we can't wait until dawn, we have to take advantage of the day. You have to leave when it¡¯s not bright yet, so you may have some confidence!¡±
"No!" Yin Jian flatly refused: "You are disobeying military orders!"
"No!" Guan Shan said seriously: "Old Yin, you haven't heard me finish what I said!"
"Okay, you finish speaking first!" Yin Jian said.
Guan Shandao: "What I mean is to leave some people to guard until dawn, as long as they can stop the enemy! This part of the people does not need too many people, one company to the north and one company to the south should be enough! The remaining people go around Pass the village and retreat to the north in the direction of the large army!"
Yin Jian was startled, Guan Shan's suggestion was not unreasonable, but he immediately thought of something, shook his head quickly, and said: "No, the commander is afraid that the enemy will follow and pursue us, and then he will introduce the enemy into the Wufeng Mountain Area Here, I specifically told you that our regiment should not go in the same direction as the larger army!"
Guan Shan said: "Old Yin, if we don't go north, we have no other direction to go! The commander is worried that the enemy will stick to us. If we still have two companies in this position to block the enemy, , if everyone walks faster, the enemy will not be able to catch up with us, and by the time it gets dark, we will be far away!"
"So, where are the two companies left?" Yin Jian asked him again.
"This is something that can't be helped!" Guan Shan also looked very painful, but he had to say: "Without a little sacrifice, we can't escape safely!"
Yin Jian fell silent. He remembered the breakout plan Liu Xinghua told him before leaving. As the commander, Liu Xinghua must have thought of the idea of ??passing the political commissar, but he did not let him do so. Instead, he did not hesitate to ask him to take the risk of leading the entire army. When the regiment breaks out to the west, it must be reluctant to lose any company, or even a platoon!
Seeing that Yin Jian was speechless for a long time, Guan Shan said leisurely: "Old Yin, I have thought about this for a long time. Indeed, I don't want to lose any comrades, but after much thinking, I really can't think of a better way. I think this is good, I will stay and lead these two companies to block the attack, and at the same time, depending on the situation and adapting to circumstances, I may be able to escape through a gap!"
Yin Jian shook his head resolutely. He knew very well that this was no longer the Liulin battlefield last year, and there was no heavy fog! Zhang Xian made a mistake once, it's impossible to make a mistake every time! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
