Chapter 37: Battle of Shuozhou [3]

When Old Yan was planning all this, Han Ling was preparing to go south to Shuozhou.

After taking Yingxian, the three regiments left a battalion of troops to defend the defense, they rushed to Shanyin County.

On June 3, 1930, when Lu Yinglin's 44th Division was about to arrive in Shenchi County, Han Ling led tens of thousands of troops to Shuozhou.

At this time, which Jinsui Army infantry battalion in Shuozhou has now also ran to Shenchi County.

They received the order from Yan Baichuan yesterday, so they naturally would not be able to get a chariot with a mantis arm.

Everything at the beginning seemed to be based on Yan Baichuan's calculations.

However, at 1:00 noon on June 3, after the troops arrived in Shuozhou, Han Ling did not stay here for too long.

The first regiment was ordered to prepare immediately, raid thirty kilometers, and take down Shenchi County in one fell swoop.

In order to speed up, Han Ling specially dispatched dozens of trucks to transport them.

The locations of Shenchi County and Ningwu County are not just Yan Baichuan can see clearly.

Han Ling also saw it.

This can be said to be the main transportation route from Shuozhou to southern Shanxi.

Yan Baichuan took this place and with his about 20,000 troops, it is very likely that he would block the attack of his 40,000 army.

And taking this place yourself can block the passage to Yan Baichuan to the north.

So he did not stay in Shuozhou City for a day as Yan Baichuan imagined, but arrived in Shuozhou. After lunch, he immediately asked a group to take a truck to attack Shenchi County.

At this time, there was only one camp that had been removed from Shenchi County last night.

There are no extra troops in this kind of county town now.

The regular army was transferred to the front line of Chiang Kai-shek's army.

The security forces were transferred to Shanyin County and Ying County, but they have been eaten by Pingyuan Army now.

"Benzhu, how long will it take for Chief Lu's 44th Division to arrive here? Now Pingyuan Army is probably already in Shuozhou! I always feel that it is not safe without the main force around me!"

The person who spoke was a company commander, whose name was Diao Cheng, and his nickname was Diao Ergou.

He and this battalion commander are fellow townsmen, and they usually have the best relationship. Otherwise, he, a company commander, would not dare to talk to the battalion commander like this. Isn’t this disturbing the morale of the army?

"Ergouzi, I can tell you that it's enough for you to say these words in front of me. If you say them outside, I can't spare you!"

His battalion commander Kong Wei looked at Diao Chengdao as if warning.

"Battleman, am I angry and irritated! You said I wondered where the Pingyuan Army came from? Commander Qin's troops were defeated by them in less than a day. It seems to be even more powerful than our troops!"

"It's done! Go down and take the troops to me. Also do a good job of welcoming Chief Lu.

Chief Yan has sent a telegram, and they are expected to arrive at the Shenchi tomorrow morning."

In fact, the battalion commander was also a little depressed. The Pingyuan Army didn't know where it came out, which made the Jinsui Army actually avoid their edge.

"That's true! Camp, I'll leave first!"

Diao Cheng finished speaking and prepared to leave. At this moment, a soldier ran in.

"Battleman, something is wrong! Ping Yuanjun is fighting!"

The soldier ran in with panic on his face.

"Bastard! What did you say? Pingyuan Army is here to fight? Don't disturb the morale of the army here. Do you know that lying about military information is going to the military court!"

Before the battalion commander could speak, Diao Cheng grabbed the soldier's collar and shouted sternly.

Diao Cheng really couldn't believe the fact that Ping Yuanjun was fighting like this.

According to the speed, Pingyuan Army should still be in Shuozhou now!

Moreover, they only traveled for dozens of kilometers in the morning and should be resting now.

But this soldier said that Pingyuan's army had come, and no one could believe it.

"Tell me clearly, what's going on? What happened to Ping Yuanjun's fight?"

The battalion commander also asked in a deep voice.

"Battle, what I said is true! Our people just went to change shifts with the outpost outside the city. Before we arrived, we saw a convoy driving towards us on the way.

The military flag hanging on it is the Golden Dragon Flag of Pingyuan Army. They quickly took the shortcut and ran back! Camp, close the city gates quickly! Otherwise they will arrive!"

"What? Convoy? Are you talking about Pingyuan's military trucks transporting soldiers? How many of them are there?"

"I don't know! Our people didn't see clearly, and they ran back quickly when they saw the Golden Dragon Flag!"

"asshole!"

The battalion commander immediately cursed, not knowing who he was scolding.

"Why don't you go and close the city gate quickly, and send a report to Taiyuan and tell Chief Yan about our situation!"

"yes!"

"Bang"

"Bang"

"Bang"

Just as the battalion commander was about to close the city gate, gunfire suddenly sounded in the city.

It turned out that the soldiers at the city gate saw the golden dragon flag and immediately wanted to close the city gate.

But before they had time to close the city gate, the light machine gun set up on the roof of the truck suddenly shot in a flash.

The soldiers at the city gate fell on the ground.

The soldiers at the city gate also began to shoot and fight back.

However, the soldiers of the Pingyuan Army First Regiment also began to fight back.

But the truck did not stop.

He rushed in toward the city gate.

Then some trucks began to stop, and the soldiers on it immediately came down to clean up the Jinsui army.

And some trucks did not stop, but began to head towards the center of the city.

Their target is the military command of Shenchi County.

"Where did the gunshots come from here? Could it be that Pingyuan's army entered the city?"

At this time, the battalion commander was also panicked and couldn't help but say anxiously.

"Hurry! Go out with me to have a look! Diao Cheng, go to the military camp to gather the troops!"

The battalion commander said anxiously as he walked out of his command center.

Just as the battalion commander walked out of his command center and was about to summon troops.

The trucks rushed around the streets, aiming directly at the command center of the Shenchi.

One regiment against another battalion.

Whether in terms of combat quality or weapon equipment.

The Jinsui Army was much worse than the Pingyuan Army.

From entering the city to the end, the Jinsui army was disarmed.

The whole process didn't last more than an hour.

And the battalion commander, Diao Cheng and others were naturally captured.

"Send a report to your commander! We have successfully seized Shenchi County and requested the next military action!"

After sending these prisoners to Shuozhou, Liu Klong and the leader of the first regiment began to report to Han Ling.

Shuozhou, Pingyuan Army Temporary Command!
Chapter completed!
