The battle was about to start!
After the Fifth Army of the Revolutionary Army had tested the Second Army of the Dian Army, Fulin, who had experience in commanding troops, directly used the 37th Regiment of the 13th Division of the Fifth Army as the vanguard, the 38th Regiment and the 39th Regiment of the 13th Division as the two wings to cover the attack.
In order to facilitate the 13th division's battle, before the attack, Li Fulin gathered the artillery of the 5th army and bombarded Chu Yunfei's 2nd army several times.
"It seems that Li Fulin has some skills!”
"However, you want to use three regiments to tear apart the defense line of the 2nd Army?”
On the city pass, Chu Yunfei, who was overseeing the battlefield, was constantly paying attention to the changes in the situation.
"Pass down my order, order the 4th Division Commander Wang Ben not to use his artillery to counterattack. It's not the time to use it yet. If possible, let his 4th Division eat up these 3 enemy regiments in front of the camp!”
"At the same time, order Zhou Yuan's 5th division to prepare to support from the back. Once the enemy forces completely press forward and Wang Ben's troops are unable to resist, order them to quickly provide support!”
Chu Yunfei was like a chess player on the battlefield. Facing the offensive posture of the Fifth Army, he counterattacked accordingly.
The 4th Division was the first line of defense set up by the Dian Army outside Fuzhou.
Wang Jiaben, who was commanding the battle at the front line, heard Chu Yunfei's order through the phone. His expression was a little ugly.
He had just experienced several rounds of artillery bombardment from the enemy and was about to organize the artillery to counterattack. He never expected to receive such an order from Chu Yunfei.
Wang Jiaben angrily hammered the wall of the bunker to vent his dissatisfaction. Soon, he followed Chu Yunfei's orders and did not stop.
"Order the 10th Regiment's Lu Chengzhong to lead the 10th Regiment to give me a head-on attack!”
"Let the 11th Regiment's Li Guoquan and the 12th Regiment's Gao Changyan split the enemy's 13th Division's flanks!”
"When has our Dian Army ever been bombarded by cannonballs and not been able to fight back?”
After Wang Jiaben cursed, he could only vent his anger on the Northern Expedition revolution.
Therefore, when the 4th Division's 10th Regiment and the enemy's 13th Division's 37th Regiment met, countless bullets were fired at the 37th Regiment.
Faced with the powerful counterattack of the 10th regiment, the 37th regiment of the Northern Expedition Revolution was instantly stunned. Even the commander of the 37th regiment did not react for a long time.
Hearing the dense machine gun sounds, the commander of the 37th Regiment of the Northern Expedition Revolutionary Army made a prompt decision to call for the 38th Regiment and the 39th Regiment to close in.
However, imagination was beautiful, but reality was cruel.
Before the two regiments of the 13th Division of the Revolutionary Army could make any movements, the 11th and 12th regiments of the 4th Division of the Dian Army had already infiltrated.
While they sent out a portion of their forces to stop the 39th Regiment and 38th Regiment of the Revolutionary Army from approaching the 37th Regiment in the middle, each regiment also sent out a battalion to cooperate with Lu Chengzhong's 10th Regiment to attack the enemy's 37th Regiment.
Fighting, splitting up, blocking, and encircling, the three regiments of the 4th Division of the Dian Army were almost done in one breath.
With the sound of gunfire, before Li Lin could react, the 37th Regiment of the Northern Expedition Revolutionary Army under his command had been wiped out by Wang Ben's 4th Division.
At the right time, Chu Yunfei, who saw the opportunity, immediately ordered the 5th Division of the Dian Army, who had been prepared, to charge forward and heavily injure the 38th and 39th regiments of the enemy who had not yet retreated from the battle.
The battle had yet to reach its final stage, but a division of the 5th division of the Revolutionary Army had already suffered heavy losses. The price the Dian Army had to pay was just one battalion of casualties.
"A master is gone just like that?"
In the command post of the Fifth Division of the Revolutionary Army, Li Lin's heart was bleeding when he received the report from the front line.
Especially when he saw the reported casualties on both sides, he immediately had the intention to shoot the commander of the 13th Division to death.
However, when he looked at the 13th division commander and the two surviving regiment commanders, he could not say anything.
Suppressing his anger, Old Fulin took a deep breath and said to the three of them: "Tell me, what happened on the battlefield?”
"A dignified division couldn't even withstand half a day of attacks from the Dian Army. How can we, the Fifth Army, face others?”
The commander of the 13th Division of the Revolutionary Army, who had returned from defeat, did not explain much to Li Lin's question. He only asked a bitter question.
"Commander, have you ever seen a local warlord with one light machine gun per squad?”
"When our soldiers encountered the enemy, under the enemy's machine gun fire, they fell like harvested wheat!”
"They…they didn't even give us a chance to fight!”
As he spoke. The 1.8-meter-tall commander of the 13th division cried out emotionally.
Li Lin choked and fell silent.
Just as Cai Rui had expected, the British army did not use the China-Myanmar railway to attack the rear of Yunnan. Instead, after meeting up with the Franks 'colonial army at Gamblu, they headed straight for Yunnan.
In front of them was the 1st Division of the Dian Army.
