Chapter 17 The Battle Flag

Sorry, the public version of the public has been wrong, and the content of Chapter 17 was solved to Chapter 16, and now the two chapters are solved together

Seeing that the opponent's formation was still almost complete, the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division held their rest. The infantry guarding on the front line were even more focused on the rows of enemy troops. Only veterans equipped with Minni rifles were proficient in reloading and preparing for the next wave of shooting!

Except for the heavy footsteps of the other party, there was no sound in the entire position. Even the yellow sheep who was sitting on the ground crying kept kneeling on the ground with his head in his arms, and the entire front showed a rare peace!

But the next moment, a command broke the calm of the entire front, and a roar was roaring: "Fire!", all the muzzles were beating violently, and rows of soldiers were harvested by the sickle of the god of death, and after this round of volleys, the three rows of formations in the front seemed to be surviving, which gave the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division a little comfort.

The enemy could only grit their teeth and continue to move forward. So what could it be if they had come to this point? The 17th Division seemed much more lively, and the officers and soldiers shouted, "Okay! Come again!"

The distance between the two sides was obviously getting closer and closer. They crossed the cold corpse of their comrades and stepped on the blood-red snow. There was only the sound of military music in their ears, and their blood was boiling to the extreme. However, occasionally, the seriously injured comrades fell to the ground made a low hum without control.

Liu Jingxiao was also very nervous, and he kept saying, "I think this is the final battle..."

Soon, the other party stepped on neat steps and approached the defenders' positions. The defenders could even see the slight sweat beads on the other party's face. Hu Bo, who calmed down, simply sat on the ground and shouted loudly: "What are you afraid of! Let the bullets and bayonets solve your fear!"

Different commanders had different styles. Lu Da said nothing, but just took a rifle from the soldier and was about to rush up to fight in person. His deputy Wu Canglei simply rushed to the front end of the front line, waved the military flag vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Our regiment has no record of retreating voluntarily!"

Li He opened his eyes, wanted to speak but stopped, and wanted to find the most stable method, but there was no way. The staff officer next to him persuaded him: "The brigade commander is time to solve the battle with a pistol, bayonet and fist!"

Li Heyi then said: "Transfer the reserve team! I personally direct the counterattack!"

The most relaxed one is Sima Kan. A snow-white dining table and a very sumptuous Western food. Sima Kan was there with a pair of knife and fork, and he also changed into a pair of swallow dresses. However, the soldiers of Sima Kan's regiment were also the most calm, and the commander had no intention of fear at all, so what else could he say?

In terms of the enemy, Su Hanqiu and Bai Ling both rushed and fought hard without a hum, while the war drums on the 20th Division suddenly became dense, and the command style of the Henan Provincial Army was completely different. The officers all untied the wind and discipline buckles and waited for the blow that determined their destiny.

To the surprise of the Hubei army, Liu Jingxiao's troops fired so quickly, and another row of guns was fired. The fireworks were jumping at countless muzzles, and several forward companies were almost completely injured and injured.

But at this time, the E army finally heard a sound like fairy music: "Let's fire!"

Tens of thousands of hands pulled the cold plate machine at this moment, and then the entire formation was shrouded in the smoke and dust of the launching medicine. Countless people in the formation of the 17th Division fell to the ground with a plop, and the fiery blood mixed with the cold snow water.

Such a dense volleyball was naturally a fatal blow. Then the Hubei army let out a roar like a sea of ​​roar. Countless officers and soldiers rushed up with sharp bayonets, but to their surprise, a considerable number of soldiers in the 17th Division loaded and fired.

Bai Ling rode on the front line on a war horse, secretly regretting it. Although both sides deliberately did not attack the other officers and maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, the casualties of the officers were equally terrifying. The intensive volleyball offensive of the 17th Division reminded him that although the other party was just a unit with a very short history, he was definitely a good move.

Su Hanqiu, who was in charge of this offensive, was also a little regretful. No one expected that the 17th Division would not collapse under such an offensive. According to historical experience, unless he was a veteran of the Third Division, he would be in a panic and deformed under such pressure, and at most he could only shoot two volleyballs. But in fact, someone on the other side actually fired four-volleyballs, and most soldiers fired two-volleyballs. It seemed that they underestimated this opponent.

The pressure on the 17th Division was equally heavy. Liu Jingxiao jumped onto the army and asked Ding Ning: "If our army retreats, will your cavalry have the courage to counterattack?"

Ding Ning proudly raised his sword and spit out a string of words: "Even if it is ten times more bayonet walls, it doesn't exist in my heart."

Sima Kan put down the knife and fork, grabbed a plate and put it in his mouth to chew. After gnawing for a long time, he found that he had actually gnawed a plate for a long time. At this time, he picked up something and poured it into his mouth. After a long time, he felt very uncomfortable in his mouth, so he couldn't help but stand up suddenly and raised his saber.

At this moment, the distance between the two sides was closest, and the reflections of countless bayonets seemed to reflect the eyes of the defenders. At such a short distance, many officers and soldiers of the 17th Division still opened fire with a "bang". Some defenders grabbed the grenades and threw them over without loading.

At this time, I don’t know who shouted: “Kill!”. The officers and soldiers of the 17th Division jumped out of the trenches. The two sides fought fiercely, and even the sound of military music seemed to stop at this time.

Both sides have full confidence in hand-to-hand combat. The 17th Division has the reputation of being invincible in hand-to-hand combat in history. The Hubei army is also a unit famous for hand-to-hand combat. The people on both sides collided with each other and used bayonets, buttlets, sabers and even fists to solve the problem. At that moment, huge casualties occurred, and the chief officers of both sides even came up with them.

This kind of impact has to pay the greatest price. Chen Ninghe led his infantry company, which is known as the strongest in the entire division, and advanced more than ten meters with a bayonet. There were only three or four of the dozen officers and soldiers around him. The entire company had been destroyed half of it. The price paid by the Hubei army beside him was almost the same. Both sides used all their strength and fought each other in this small space until the last quarter of an hour.

Liu Jingxiao and Ding Ning's cavalry moved forward. At this time, both sides had already fought for five minutes. However, Liu Jingxiao's 17th Division was not as basic as the Hubei army. Many of them were Xinding who had only been in the army for several months. Therefore, the infantry of the Hu Bo regiment on the left began to retreat. In this way, the Sima Investigation Regiment on the right seemed too exposed.

Sima Kan Regiment gritted his teeth and personally led the team to rush for more than ten meters, suppressing the enemy's momentum, and then contracted appropriately. Moreover, Wu Canglei, who had the strongest impact, also advanced only more than 100 meters and soon fell into a tough battle. The two sides were mixed together, and even the artillery did not know where to fire.

Liu Jingxiao became more and more nervous when he looked behind the front line. He built three lines of defense. The first line of defense was probably afraid of being unable to hold on. At this time, Wu Canglei seemed to find that he was about to be unable to hold on. Enemy troops infiltrated from time to time appeared in his rear. He waved his saber himself and shouted loudly: "Go back!"

The morale of the Hubei army was greatly boosted, and the officers and soldiers shouted loudly almost at the same time: "Kill!"

Defeat the front line!

The retreat of the 17th Division was still quite orderly, but no matter how orderly the retreat was, it was just a retreat. The Hubei army seemed to see that the goddess of victory was already waving to it and used twelve points of strength to attack forward. When the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division jumped into the trenches, they found that the enemy had already pursued them!

The battle on the second line was also extremely fierce, but it seemed much shorter than the first line of defense. The Hubei army had a complete advantage in human resources. The officers and soldiers of the 17th Division were not yet stable and were driven out of the battle line. Behind them was the artillery position of Mengding Kingdom. Mengding Kingdom shouted: "Rapid fire! If you rush up, all the artillery bombarded the cannons and go up with me to fight for bayonets!"

At this time, Liu Jingxiao's thoughts suddenly became hung up. He felt that it was not a good idea to remain unmoved in the reserve team.

At this time, the situation of the battle changed again. The Hu Bo regiment first retreated, but the first counterattack was this regiment. There were many new recruits in this regiment and their combat effectiveness was relatively weak. At this time, Hu Bo suddenly grabbed the military flag himself and threw it towards the Hubei army. He shouted loudly: "Take back our regiment flag!"

As he was speaking, he had already made his own efforts and personally led six or seven guards to yell and kill. For an infantry team, the regiment flag represents the highest honor, and losing the regiment flag is the greatest shame for the entire team. In this case, the soldiers of Hu Bo's regiment also turned around and rushed forward with bayonets.

The counterattack was so fierce that the Hubei army, who was intoxicated with the desire for victory, was defeated dozens of steps before they could fight back. But the next step was the fiercest battle, fighting around the regiment flag, and the bodies of both sides piled up into a hill under the regiment flag. On the flank of the Hu Bo regiment, Li Heyi rushed up with an infantry battalion of the new reserve team.

A soldier ignored the blood that burst out from the wound and suddenly grabbed the regiment flag. The blood splattered onto the blue regiment flag. He seemed to ignore the severe pain of the wound and did not care about his own safety. Waving the regiment flag vigorously, the morale of the Hu Bo regiment suddenly became so high. Almost all the officers and soldiers of the regiment roared, regardless of their safety at all, and rushed forward desperately.

The counterattack of Li Heyi's battalion was even more fatal. For the Hubei army, one of the biggest disadvantages was that the entire unit suffered heavy casualties during the assault, and the system had been disrupted. Many times, troops from different units fought together, and the Li He's unit, which was invested in the establishment, was almost intact. In this way, the counterattack of Li He's battalion almost had the power of an infantry regiment.

The counterattack of Hu Bo's group also made other teams take the initiative to counterattack. They accommodated a somewhat chaotic formation and fought forward desperately, especially Wu Canglei. When he thought that Hu Bo took the lead in counterattack, he had endless motivation and held the command knife and shouted loudly.

At this time, Hu Bo shouted: "Roar up! Take back the position!" Accompanied by the wave of the military flag, the whole regiment fought and broke out a bloody road. The Hubei army was forced to retreat step by step, and was about to retreat to the second line of defense.

Liu Jingxiao looked at the moment of reversal from behind and couldn't help but nodded repeatedly. He praised repeatedly: "It's still my old army that can fight! Ding Ning, don't move your army first..."

Ding Ning was not a militant either. He just said with smugness: "I'm afraid that's what we've fought today..."

A soldier covered in blood, holding the regiment flag in both hands, was about to penetrate the battle line, and was about to penetrate the battle line, and then the second soldier jumped up, grabbed the regiment flag, and fell to the ground with a plop... One, two, three... The seventh soldier finally inserted the regiment flag on the defense line. Almost all the 17th Divisions cheered, while the Hubei army also sighed.

However, Hu Bo's regiment did not have the strength to continue to move forward, and the Hubei army had firmly infiltrated the second line of defense. Similarly, such a terrifying scene made the enemy without the strength to continue charging for a while. Both sides temporarily occupied one or two fortifications and began to shoot at each other. Bai Ling really wanted to launch another assault, but just took a closer look at the scene of a sea of ​​corpses and blood in front of him, and he was immediately unable to get excited.

Such a scene was also painful in Liu Jingxiao's eyes. Both sides temporarily dug fortifications to prepare for the next step of action, and the so-called "Su Hanqiu's offensive" in the Republic's military history paused the impact.

Soon both sides sent envoys to demand a temporary truce and contain the injured. For both sides, this conflict was a painful thing. Although Liu Jingxiao said it was a "great victory", the 10,000 troops participating in the battle paid the price of 2,600 people, of which the Hu Bo regiment suffered the most casualties, and the entire army almost lost its combat effectiveness. The entire regiment participated in the battle of 1,600 people, and more than 800 people were killed or injured. In a word, the infantry regiment lost its combat effectiveness.

The team's regiment flag was in battle for seven times. There were only a dozen people left in many companies, and the casualties of officers were even more terrifying. Three battalion commanders were two injuries and one death. The deputy battalion commander, who was acting in command, also suffered six casualties, nine company commanders, seven casualties below the company platoon were even more terrifying. Even the regiment commander Hu Bo was seriously injured. He was first hit by two bayonets, and then hit four bullets. Now his life was on the line and he was in emergency rescue.

Liu Jingxiao praised Hu Bo and said repeatedly: "This is like the officer who came out of our Suzaku..."

The losses of the Hubei army were mixed. The casualties of 5,800 people were more than twice that of the 17th Division. Although it seemed more cost-effective in terms of the total casualties, some officers from other troops were not polite to find Bai Ling later: "Old man Bai, I heard that it was your good idea? I informed me that our regiment no longer exists!"
