"By the way, the old friends of your association are also here, do you want to see Mr. Huanqing." Wu Chenxuan waved his hand, and a young man with his hands handcuffed behind his back was put out by two soldiers, with a look of panic and anger, but he did not speak.

"It seems that you, the dog official, have slaughtered the revolutionary aspirants of Taizhou. If you want us to be caught, I'm delusional. Seeing that he was already in a desperate situation, Tao Chengzhang planned to fight to the death, but who knew that before he could pick up the bomb next to him, the bomb was shot out and fell into the heart of the canal with a pop. The boatmen and the children of the Green Gang on the front and rear boats were so frightened that their faces were like dirt, and the experienced ones all piled up their bodies, fortunately they jumped off the ship to escape at the first time, some of them were timid, and their mothers were on the pile, and the big brother of the Green Gang who led the team was not bad, and he did not collapse the shelf, but he knew in his heart that if he hadn't been tightly tied to his legs, he would have urinated at this time, and Rao was so sweaty that he was still flowing down his backbone.

"Mr. Huanqing, why are you so excited." Wu Chenxuan said disapprovingly, "I didn't come today as a political envoy of Shandong and the president of the Wuyi New Army, I came as the chairman of the Shandong Chamber of Commerce and the honorary director of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Chamber of Commerce to meet Mr. Heqing's old friend, but please rest assured, although there is no way to enter the heavens and no way to enter the earth, as long as you don't act rashly, my subordinates will still give me face and will not fire at you." ”

"Hmph, I didn't expect that your identity as Lord Wu is quite a lot, and even if you change your face, even if it is Sichuan Opera, everyone can hardly match it." Tao Chengzhang, who knew that he was no longer lucky, simply sneered at Wu Chenxuan, and he had to live a mouthful of it when he was dying. "It's just that he wants to capture us alive, so that he can ask your master for a reward and ask for two pieces of flesh and bones. Whatever you say, we revolutionaries will never yield to you. ”

"Well, if Mr. Huanqing is willing, I will invite Mr. Huanqing to the shore, and we will make tea and discuss. If you can convince me, I can let you go. Wu Chenxuan pretended to be provoked, as if he had been provoked, and said, "Mr. Huanqing, dare to go ashore to meet." ”

"Solid ears." Tao Chengzhang lifted his clothes, strode from the pedal to the shore, and approached the position on the embankment very calmly. In fact, Tao Chengzhang is not unaware of fear, since it is a knife to stretch out his head and shrink his head is also a knife, it is better to be single. In addition, although he had rejected Wu Chenxuan's words just now, he did not have a glimmer of hope, or fantasy, that he could turn enemies into friends and escape. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, people can keep a positive mindset, and crazy actions are often made in complete despair.

Tao Chengzhang and Wu Chenxuan's meeting was held in the headquarters on the river embankment, except for the two personal guards, no one else was present, no one knew how they talked, but the result was undoubtedly happy, of course, except for the children of the Green Gang, they came in vain, not only did they not earn freight, but also took dozens of boats. However, compared to the mood of the big guys in Beiyang, their losses are almost negligible.

"How so? Although Lao Pan is not a top-notch general, his use of troops is quite decent, how can he suffer such a big defeat, and he didn't even hold on for an hour before the whole army was wiped out. Cao Kun was completely stunned at this moment, Pan Liangbi, one of the five tiger generals under his command, actually returned to the headquarters with a sad face, and reported the whole process of his "defeat and death", the more he listened, the more he felt that the situation was serious, Cao Kun hurriedly pulled Pan Liangbi to Hejian Mansion to find Yuan Datou to report.

"Ao, it seems that Brother Chenxuan didn't waste time, his new army of martial arts is really well-equipped and well-trained, and it can be regarded as the dry city of the country." Yuan Shikai was not in a hurry or impatient, and he also praised the new army of Wuyi. "Liangbi, sit down and talk slowly, it's a story. Pour out everything you see and hear, and the finer the better. ”

Pan Liangbi had already communicated with several of his officers, and knew the process of the Wuyi New Army's standard attack, when the opponent was defending, the fire support was in place, the machine guns were tricky and strange, and the fortifications were even more outrageous, which could be described as a model of field defense. What's even more terrifying is that the process of the opponent's transition from defense to attack is not blocked, and the point and surface strikes of the firepower are combined with the stealth ambush of the infantry, shortening the attack distance, and suddenly launching an attack, and the things that defy the sky like Malamakin have come out, and the two teams that rely on Hanyang to save face have no power to fight back.

"So, the opponent's artillery can already accurately fire intermittently?" Yuan Shikai's face became solemn, no matter what the infantry tactics were, he Yuan Shikai was confident that his new army started from training at a small station, and it was also tempered for more than ten years, and it was one of the best in East Asia in terms of tactics and skills. But Yuan Shikai's artillery is a shortcoming, very bad old equipment, reluctant to play live ammunition training, delicate artillery. The artillery of the Beiyang Army basically played direct-aim shooting, and it was impossible for them to learn to solve equations to calculate the trajectory and conduct intermittent aimed shooting.

"Yes, Marshal, although there is no actual combat, there is no doubt that the opponent has the ability to shoot at intermittent sights." Cao Kun also had to admit that "the opponent's camp guns and field artillery have all used intermittent shooting, and the German has just learned and analyzed that the opponent is almost really shooting at the maximum range of the Krupp gun, unless the caliber of our artillery is much larger than that of the opponent, it is possible to threaten the opponent's artillery position in the case of using intermittent shooting, and there is no other way." ”

"Well, did the Germans analyze how accurate the shooting of the other side was?"

"This" Cao Kun was also very embarrassed, after all, if he continued to talk about it, he would hurt the face of the boss, Yuan Shikai naturally understood when he saw this, and with a slight wave of his hand, several staff officers knew the opportunity to retreat.

"There are no outsiders anymore. Zhong Shan, just tell the truth, I still have the amount of tolerance for someone Yuan. Yuan Shikai already had a hunch that this autumn exercise made his generals see the gap, although it may not be his original intention, but it was not a gain that made him feel worthwhile, but this faint sentence made Cao Kun have to know everything and say everything, and the situation was a little embarrassing.

"Marshal, intermittent shooting is naturally very important to artillery, but I think the excellence of the Wuyi New Army is not so simple." Cao Kun had no choice but to pick up the nice ones first, although it is not a taste to praise other people's babies, but it is better than to directly criticize himself. "On the surface, there is not much difference between this target and the establishment of our army, but after careful analysis, the opponent's individual equipment, training, squad and platoon tactics and technical equipment are all carefully designed and boldly tried. In terms of battalion-level equipment alone, it not only slightly surpasses our army in terms of numbers, but is also equipped with an additional machine gun team, four ultra-light infantry guns, and more than twice as many light and heavy machine guns. The opposing infantry also has a miniature projectile gun that can be used at hand, although the range is limited, and it seems to be firing small bombs, the power is limited, but it is better not to occupy the establishment, and it can be fired at any time, in the case of resistance on the front line, the infantry can use this thing to pull out the opponent's firepower point by itself. ”

"Well, Zhong Shan has a heart. You are right, this businessman's son is rich in the end, so although his team may not be more than half of ours, it is actually not inferior to the Beiyang line in terms of firepower. Although Xingcheng and Huafu all felt that these soldiers were just temporary patchwork of the elite of the opponent's army, if it was an ordinary standard battalion of the other party, although our army was superior in numbers, it might not have much chance of winning. ”

"Well, I haven't thought about this, but Hua Fu's guess is not impossible, after all, these sergeants are also considered elite in our army, and he Wu Chenxuan has only been in the army for three or five years, how can he train so well." Although Lao Yuan knew that this Cao Sanye was the same as Zhang Sanye, who made the eight snake spears, he was a shrewd person with thick and fine, but if he Cao Zhongshan didn't want to show off, it would be difficult to catch the ducks on the shelves. Just when Lao Yuan's mind was guessing what the details of the new army of Wuyi were, a roar came from overhead, and a shadow covered him impartially, Lao Yuan's eyes darkened, and his heart couldn't help but sink. A gust of wind rolled up, and a swift scout swept through the air behind him, making Lao Yuan feel like he was about to rub it to the top of his head.

"This, this, this is an airplane?" Cao Laosan was also very surprised. "Martial Wing New Army?"

"Well, well" Lao Yuan didn't come back to his senses for a while, he nodded in agreement very idiotically, and he didn't want to think about who else would dare to let a kite-like thing with a wooden frame go to the battlefield except for Wu Chenxuan, who loved to tinker with new things.

"What is this plane for? Could it be that he is here to demonstrate? Cao Kun has a deep resentment about the plane that flipped his hat and made the big light bulb that left him without grass to the world.

"I'm afraid I'm looking for, uh, it's to detect the weaknesses of our army, and then inform my own side..."

"Artillery positions?!" Lao Yuan and Cao Kun both reacted and shouted in unison.

Sure enough, it was only a tea time, and a German instructor rushed over with these guards, and handed over a paper book, on which the coordinates of his two camp artillery positions and one field artillery position were marked.

"I regret to inform you that just ten minutes ago, a field heavy artillery group of the Wuyi New Army carried out a rapid fire attack on your three artillery positions, and the referee team believed that all your three artillery positions were damaged, and all the personnel and equipment were judged to be out."

"Uh, Zhong Shan, how many artillery teams do you have on hand?" Yuan Shikai also guessed it, but he still had some luck.

"It's gone." Cao Zhongshan is very single, "This king's reign can be regarded as a treasure, and his two towns are still fully staffed, which makes me not know how to arrange the troops." ”

Cao Kun's wry smile was still on his face, and a guard sent to the referee team was very embarrassed to send another note, and a coordinate was impressively on the note. "Marshal, I'm afraid that the lowly position will not have a headache, and he will help the new army of Wuyi to relieve the lowly position."

Yuan Shikai took the strip and saw that it was the location coordinates of the command post under his feet, and the German teacher shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "Two adults, if you don't mind, how about we change places and watch the battle again?" ”

"Hehe, today's old man can be regarded as sacrificing his life for the country." Lao Yuan is still open-minded, pulling up his favorite general, walking out of the headquarters, watching the autumn wind sweep across the battlefield, although the sky is blue, but the haze in his heart is more and more lingering.
