"Purge the enemy! Fire! Army Commander Zhang Jianjun shouted without hesitation.

It looks so big, Zhang Jianjun heard of burning houses to stop the pursuing soldiers in the military academy, and it was really the first time he actually saw it. He participated in the Battle of Foshan, when it was not Zhang Jianjun's turn to be born and die in Foshan, and the unit to which he belonged was to evacuate the people along the Pearl River. The British burned houses on both sides of the riverbank, and everyone from the troops to the common people hated the invaders. But the British are aggressors, foreigners. The Huai army is also an enemy, but it is a Chinese. The capture policy of the Guangfu Army has long carried out various notices and propaganda against the Huai army, as long as they kneel and surrender, the Guangfu Army is really not allowed to kill prisoners. Unexpectedly, this group of Huai soldiers actually burned down the houses.

Because of the regulations on serving in the army in other places, the soldiers of the Anhui Military Region are basically not from Anhui. The basic concept of the Liberation Army as a disciple of the people is to preach every day and every year. The command gave the order to put out the fire, and the fighters immediately went into action.

The troops immediately began to evacuate residents near other central fires and began to use explosives to blow up the isolation zone to prevent the fire from spreading.

In peacetime, the people avoided serving as soldiers. With the fire, the belongings are about to be finished, and the people can't worry so much. Watch as the Liberation Army began to form a long line from the water source and began to pass wooden barrels filled with water. Everyone was surprised and knew that this was putting out a fire. Many people also worked with the Liberation Army.

At that moment, a woman screamed and rushed into a burning house, and the two warriors grabbed the woman with a quick hand. Where was there so much harmony at this time, and the warrior roared angrily: "You don't want to die? My life is gone, I want that money to have eggs! ”

"My baby is still inside! My kids are still inside! The woman shouted hoarsely as she tried to break free.

When the company commander next to him heard this, there was a faint cry of a child inside. The company commander grabbed the woman and asked loudly, "Where is your child?" ”

The woman didn't understand for a while, and looked at the company commander in a daze. The company commander roared again, "In which room is your child?" ”

The soldier's roar was like thunder, and the woman shuddered and sat limply on the ground. Her consciousness was barely restored, and she carefully straightened out the movement in the courtyard, and she tried to say loudly, "In the main house! After finishing speaking, she was afraid that the company commander would not understand, so she said loudly: "After entering the door, turn left and you will be in the main house!" ”

Many of the people next to her showed sympathy or mocking expressions on their faces, did this woman think that the soldier would save people? This group of soldiers in grass-green uniforms do not loot or kill people when they enter the city, this is an earth-shattering good army. And they are doing this now, I am afraid that it is only to appease the people, or it will not be long before this army will be revealed.

Now that the house is on fire, and the yard is burning, I can't save anyone when I rush in to save people, and I have to get in. Where would anyone dare to go in at such a time?

Just as the people were watching, the company commander turned to the soldier and shouted, "Water me!" ”

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the company commander meant, and several buckets of water were poured on his head, and the company commander was drenched when he boarded. In the eyes of the officers and soldiers and the people, the company commander pulled down the brim of his hat, and rushed into the burning house with smoke and fire.

There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone couldn't help but want to squeeze forward and get closer to see what was going on. The human wall of fighters pushed these people back, "Don't interfere with firefighting!" "Don't make a mess!" After a burst of shouting and efforts to block it, the order of firefighting was finally not disrupted.

At this time, there were all kinds of voices everywhere, but the voices in the whole courtyard could not be heard. Elsewhere there was an emergency firefight, and the eyes of the onlookers were fixed on the courtyard, either puzzled, suspicious, or looking at the women who were trying to stand up with malicious eyes. If the gaze can raise the temperature, I am afraid that the burning house and the people near the house will suddenly be ignited from the inside out.

The smoke at the gate grew thicker, and then the flames flickered. Everyone was trying to see clearly, but they saw a burning mass rush out of the door. Everyone was startled at first, and then it became clear that it was a burning broken quilt. There were people bulging under the quilt, and the warriors hurriedly put out the flames with a few buckets of water on them, and then supported the people who stood out. When he lifted the quilt, he saw that the company commander who rushed out hugged two girls in his hands. The faces of the two little girls were blackened, and their clothes were also burnt. They closed their eyes tightly, clinging to the only one who could save them.

No matter what kind of mentality they had before, the onlookers couldn't help but cheer when they saw the rescuers. The company commander gasped for breath and shouted to his comrades: "The children seem to have burned, send them to the military hospital." ”

At this moment, the woman rushed forward and took her two daughters into her arms, crying loudly. The stretcher team came and put the child on a stretcher and took him to a temporary medical station for treatment. The women also cried and followed the stretcher bearers.

The drenched company commander took a few breaths, pointed to the house and shouted, "Start demolishing from this side!" ”

The fighters pushed away all the onlookers, cleared the safe zone, and put a few explosive bags on it. Several houses on the brink of fire were ordinary masonry or even earthen structures, and where could they withstand nitro explosives, the houses were completely blown down with a few loud bangs. When the smoke and dust dispersed slightly, the space suddenly opened up, and the center of the fiercely burning fire was completely exposed to everyone's sight.

There are no enemies to be eliminated in the city, and the Huai army has fled from Fuyang City. Some fled in a direction that could be kept away from the Liberation Army, while others were centered on the officers' convoys, who wisely avoided the main road and fled north along other paths.

More than 2,000 people scattered in the field also seemed to be a large area, but it seemed to be slowly swallowed. It didn't take long for two teams of cavalry to appear at the east gate of the city, and the two dragon-like brigades quickly changed from two to four, and began to pursue the scattered Huai army. As if being whipped violently, the Huai army, who was not fast enough, immediately spread his legs and ran wildly.

Zhu Yaozu and they were not in a hurry, as the saying goes, a two-legged one can't run a four-legged one. If the infantrymen had not undergone rigorous training, they would have to "throw away their armor" after running for less than ten minutes. Twenty minutes at most, and if they still want to run, they have to throw their weapons away. It's very important to be in balance.

"The pursuit battle is not a surprise battle, the enemy has no weapons in his hands, our casualties will be much smaller, everyone should pay attention." Zhu Yaozu shouted to the two battalion commanders beside him. This is not the first time Zhu Yaozu has reminded everyone, he has already spoken once before the departure of the brigade, and this kind of training has also been carried out many times.

Before leaving, Zhu Yaozu drew his saber. Now he had put the saber back into its scabbard. Holding a riding gun in one hand and a reins in the other, Zhu Yaozu fired a shot at the nearest Huai soldier. It was clear that at a distance of more than three hundred meters, the head could not be controlled at all, and the bullet did not hit the enemy. However, Zhu Yaozu, who was on the tall horse, saw very clearly that some Huai soldiers had thrown down their weapons and accelerated the speed of escape.

Ten minutes later, the first group of Huai prisoners appeared. They fell to their knees panting and raised their hands as the Liberation Army propagandized. A part of the cavalry dismounted and gathered the Huai army into a flat field, and the cavalry patrolled slowly around the clearing. It won't be long before the follow-up infantry will be able to catch up and take over the prisoners.

Twenty minutes later, another group of Huai troops joined the ranks of surrenders. A qiē was as simple as it was expected before the war.

Zhu Yaozu chose no discarded weapons on the path, and this situation was particularly conspicuous on the battlefield he fled to. "Proceed with caution!" Zhu Yaozu said.

In the simulated battle of the Liberation Army, the infantry had too many opportunities to counterattack the cavalry. As long as the troops are not afraid of death, with the mentality that killing one is enough to make money, killing two to earn one, the pursuing cavalry will encounter great danger. During a pursuit exercise, a battalion that practiced escape laid mines, used flowering shells at close range, and laid out pocket formations. As a result, the cavalry of one of the pursuing battalions turned out to be judged "heavy losses" and lost the ability to pursue. It was a great idea to let the infantry of that battalion escape after losing heavy equipment.

After the exercise, Zhu Yaozu angrily scolded the exercise assessment department for making nonsense, but the cavalry unit also made a deep reflection on this. There are indeed too many unknowable dangers when chasing and killing.

The cavalry were also cautious, no matter how many times the Guangfu Army drilled, except for the casualties caused by bad luck, the vast majority of the "dead" were immediately resurrected in full condition. In a real war, casualties are real casualties. There is no resurrection.

As the most elite reconnaissance unit, they are not fast, they cover each other in groups, and when they encounter areas that may be ambushed by the enemy, the cavalry will dismount and reconnoiter when they approach. After more than forty minutes of pursuit, the enemy was finally identified. There was an enemy force of more than 500 people escorting more than 20 carts seven or eight miles ahead.

Sure enough, after rounding a small hill, I clearly saw the enemy. The enemy also saw the cavalry brigade of the Liberation Army, and one of the troops scattered to the side of the road and ambushed, and it seemed that it was about to be broken.

"Grandma's!" Zhu Yaozu was furious in his heart. Every time such a situation is encountered during the exercise, the cavalry unit has to hang its heart in the throat. But the damn Huai Jun also came to play this set, and Zhu Yaozu's anger was even stronger. He shouted, "Go around! ”

The generals of the Huai army couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief when they saw the pursuing cavalry abandon the main road. How credible those broken guys are, the generals of the Huai Army have no confidence at all. They were not allowed to surrender when they saw the cavalry of the Liberation Army approaching. If the Liberation Army detours, it will be nothing. There were several dirt slopes on the trail, and as far as the Huai generals knew, the cavalry could not climb over them at all, and it would take them at least an hour to find a new way. At this time, the generals of the Huai army had already run to the river to cross the river. Although there will still be danger after crossing the river, at least there is no need to fear the pursuit of the enemy's cavalry.

"Quick! Hurry up and run! The general of the Huai army shouted loudly. He was glad that he had prepared early, so he removed the cannon from the gun carriage and turned it into a trailer. This artillery cart is good, if it is an ordinary cart, it can't run so fast. Even if you can run so fast, I'm afraid that something will happen if you bump around. And the gun cart has been dragged by the horses for so long, and the large boxes containing the belongings on the cart are still stable.

The generals of the Huai army began to be embarrassed, did they bring these artillery carriages with them when they crossed the river? If you don't bring it, you won't be able to transport so many things, and if you don't bring it, you won't be able to escape so quickly.

His troubles didn't last for half an hour, when he heard the panting pro-soldier next to him shouting, "Big ...... Look, my lord! ”

Twisting his head in the direction of his soldier's finger, the leader of the Huai army was dumbfounded, and from his angle, he could see the dirt slopes. I don't know when the dirt slope was left behind, but it looks a bit like it was left by the flood. Because the people were taking the soil, the slope was very steep, and the height was about four or five feet. The cavalry of the Huai army could not pass at all.

From this point of view, the cavalry of the Liberation Army seemed to emerge from the farthest slope of the earth, and although the horses were laborious, they carried the riders up the slope. The riders adjusted their horses a little and then rushed straight down the other side of the same steep side. With this momentum, they temporarily disappeared from the Huai army's field of vision, and soon "emerged from the underground" again.

This is not a horse, let alone a few horses, hundreds of war horses are like this, one after another, like a huge wave, a mountain torrent, they crossed the terrain that the Huai army thought that the cavalry could not cross at all, and took a shortcut to kill them.

"Are they riding horses? Isn't that big a mule? "The generals of the Huai army have begun to talk nonsense.

Indeed, the closer you look, the clearer you can see, the mounts of the cavalry of the Liberation Army are extremely large, and only stupid black and thick mules can compare with them, but where can stupid and stupid mules have such ferocious speed and impact. The mounts of the opposing cavalry all have long toned legs, elegant and calm steps, and are extremely explosive. When jumping up the dirt slope, the two front hooves clasped tightly to the ground, and the hind legs were retracted in a very elegant posture, and they actually stopped firmly on the dirt slope. This is a picture of the power and beauty of living beings, and it is also a scene like death on the battlefield.

"Quick! Come on! The Huai army general had been riding in the convoy on horseback, but now he could no longer care so much, and began to move forward with his horsewhip and whipping his mount. A leather bag was tightly tied to the back of his saddle, and inside it were small gold ingots. Even if he lost his heavy baggage and only had a bag of gold ingots, he would not worry about eating and drinking in his life.

It's just that people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away. After seeing the cavalry of the Guangfu Army, the general of the Huai Army felt that his "tame character" mount was not galloping at all, but walking.

The officers were all about the same, and they were all prepared the same. There is nothing in this world that must be saved except their own lives. Abandoned his family, abandoned his softness, and abandoned his subordinates. Under the example of the general, the officers with leather bags tied behind the horses led their soldiers to follow the generals to speed up the escape. The ranks of heavy artillery wagons were left behind by them.

The cries of a group of women rang out, and the eldest wives, second wives, third wives, and fourth wives of the Huai Army officers were also in the brigade, seeing their husbands running away, even if they didn't know how powerful the chasing soldiers were behind, they also intuitively felt that they were abandoned.

When the distance between the two sides widened to more than a mile, the Huai soldiers escorting the carriages and horses also fully understood what was going on. They all stopped, some of them suddenly at a loss, others simply smashed open the box, took a few ingots of silver from it, and dragged a certain aunt and wife, whom they had already coveted, into the field by the roadside. This area has not yet been completely cultivated into farmland, and the grass and reeds grow tall, and these clever guys have disappeared from the crowd.

The rest of the people woke up like a dream, some of them only took money, and some of them took money. The team, which could barely maintain some discipline, was scattered in an instant.

In the evening, Zhu Yaozu returned to Fuyang City with his troops a little depressed. He ordered the troops to solve the Huai army brigade on the road, and seven or eight major officers fled with their own soldiers. Of course, their seizures were also extremely rich, more than 500,000 taels of silver, and a large number of gold and silver treasures and antique calligraphy and paintings. There are also a group of wives, aunts, and the little cubs of the Huai Army officers.

Only four or five cunning Huai soldiers took some money and ran away with their aunts. This kind of person can't afford to let Zhu Yaozu spend a huge amount of troops to search. Just thinking that these filthy guys turned out to be talented and talented, Zhu Yaozu felt a fire in his heart. Fighting such a battle with the Liberation Army actually benefited these people.

However, Zhu Yaozu was young after all, and when he arrived at the city gate with a large amount of supplies and saw Fuyang City, which had been completely liberated, that unhappiness immediately disappeared. The losses of the troops were negligible, and the Huai troops were basically captured, how big a wave could those few fish that slipped through the net set off?

The commander was also very pleased. Everyone thought that the Huai Army had been operating in Fuyang City for more than ten years, and the length of time was even earlier than the complete establishment of the name of the Guangfu Army, and this Fuyang City had already been built by them like an iron bucket. Unexpectedly, the Huai army is still like Qingping on the water, no matter how big it looks, no matter whether they have covered all the water surface or not. A gust of wind and rain can make them disappear without a trace.

The fire set by the Huai army when he left gave the Guangfu army a chance, and the Guangfu army's firefighting behavior made the people of Fuyang praise. And the company commander, regardless of his own life and death, broke into the sea of fire to rescue the trapped children, which went viral in Fuyang City. This kind of action, which only the Liberation Army could make, was undoubtedly beyond the common sense of the Chinese people in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Even if the army did not set the fire in person, the military discipline was excellent, and the army did not take advantage of the fire to rob, but helped the people to put out the fire, which is the army of benevolence and righteousness. As for the army's disregard for its own life and death to save the people who have never lived a life, this is undoubtedly an absolute benchmark in morality.

Even if he only attacked Fuyang City for half a day, Fuyang City had completely calmed down. Although the people were still waiting, there was no confrontation. There was even a curiosity about the Liberation Army.

That's a good thing! R1058
