Suzhou battlefield.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the artillery division movement was in place, and Li Qingquan's directly subordinate artillery regiment was also assembled.

However, these days of drills are not without a little effect, at least Li Qingquan's army has a deeper understanding of the Beiyang Army's tactics, and Lu Yang and the others are also surprised by Li Qingquan's strict military discipline.

Because they received a notice in advance, most of Lu Yang's troops had withdrawn from the front line, leaving only flags and some straw men wearing Beiyang military uniforms as camouflage, although Chen Zhiji and others came to Lu Yang's headquarters, but because they were too far away from the front line, they didn't find any clues.

At ten o'clock, Chen Xuan's artillery division began to test fire, after a few test firings, the artillery division and Li Qingquan's artillery regiment began to fire in unison, for a while, as if the sky was falling apart, the violent explosion sound pierced the sky, the whole earth seemed to shake, and the smoke flattened all the empty trenches on the entire front line, if there were people, there was no chance of survival.

Chen Zhiji and the others were stunned, Lu Yang and the others were also as pale as earth, they all knew that Chen Xuan's army had strong firepower and perfect supplies, and this kind of intense artillery bombardment directly shocked everyone, even Chen Xuan, Li Yuqing, and Chen Qicai, who came to the front line to observe, also looked at each other, and did not expect that under the neat shelling, everything was torn apart by the fierce artillery fire.

There is no doubt that although they can't see anything clearly because of the smoke, after this shelling, there will be nothing left on the forward positions of Lu Yang and the others except for mud and stones, and there will be no grass!

"Marshal, is it still necessary to launch a flight bombardment? This round of shelling is enough to make the Beiyang Army frightened, and we can also save some artillery. Play! ”

After a long time, Chen Qicai said with difficulty.

"No! The plan has already been operated to this point, and the previous achievements cannot be wasted because of a small mistake, let the air force continue to prepare, and as soon as the shelling stops, it will immediately enter the battlefield! ”

Chen Xuan was also a little hesitant in his heart, such a fierce shelling was enough to frighten everyone, but after thinking about it, he still decided to go according to the plan, after all, the plan had come to this point, if it was a failure because he wanted to save a little material, it would be a matter of moving the whole body, and I don't know how many plans would have to be changed.

The shelling began to extend, and the Beiyang soldiers who were frightened earlier finally reacted, seeing the purgatory-like battlefield, who was still stupidly staying in the position, and the frightened soldiers rushed out of the trenches, and no longer had the courage to look at the forward position, they ran back one after another, and it was useless to restrain the officers.

And now a large part of Lu Yang's subordinates have been dropped, Lu Yongxiang originally thought that Chen Zhiji and others, who were sent by Chen Tiaoyuan to supervise the army, would ask him to severely punish the defeated soldiers, but he didn't expect that Chen Zhiji, who had a dead face, couldn't say a word, and was carried by his personal guards and ran to the rear.

Lu Yang and the others had already premeditated, but now that the overseers have run away, they are still acting a fart, so hurry up and run, anyway, when the time comes, Chen Tiaoyuan will blame him, and he will also have Chen Zhiji, who is wronged, and he will even save the strength to make excuses.

As soon as the headquarters withdrew, the middle and senior officers who had long known the inside story stopped acting, and told their subordinates to run away, and took advantage of the chaos to kill some people who were not Lu Yang's henchmen, and the battle report must belong to the martyr level.

This time it was lively, the Beiyang rout ran all over the mountains, and Chen Xuan's plane had already rushed in the direction of reinforcements before it arrived at the battlefield, stirring up dust and smoke all the way.

Chen Xuan and his officers were also dumbfounded, the rout of tens of thousands of people was really a big scene, even the telescope could not see all the people, but as far as the eye could see, there were Beiyang routs everywhere.

Chen Xuan didn't know the truth, he was still secretly scolding in his heart, Lu Yongxiang and Yang Shande were too disrespectful, the air force would ravage after the promised shelling, and Lu Yang pretended to be defeated, but now that the shelling is not over, this person ran away, if Chen Tiaoyuan sees the flaws, isn't it all in vain?

As the commander of the field, Li Qingquan didn't have time to think about this.

"Damn, the enemy has run away, and it's a fart, hurry up and notify the artillery, stop the shelling, and the army will launch a full-scale charge!"

Seeing that the artillery was still firing round after round of salvos, Li Qingquan angrily kicked a communications staff officer to the ground - is it really the shells of the Northern Expeditionary Army that don't need money!

At this time, the air force finally arrived, hundreds of planes were cruising over the battlefield, densely covered with the sky, the terrifying whistling sound kept hitting everyone's eardrums, many soldiers who had never seen an airplane were directly frightened to the ground, although Li Qingquan's officers and men had invited the air force to participate in the exercise, but they had never seen more planes today, and many people were stunned.

"Rubbish! Loser! Idiot! A bunch of wine bags and rice bags were completely collapsed in less than half an hour, are you still the elite of Beiyang。。。。。。 ”

The reinforcement headquarters, Chen Tiaoyuan, who has always been known as an honest man, was thunderous at this time, because it was too far away from the battlefield, so although he heard the dull sound of cannons, he couldn't imagine what kind of scene it could shoot anyway.

"The signal soldiers went to inform Lu Yongxiang and Yang Shande to block the attack on the spot, if the rout dared to attack our position, Lao Tzu killed them, and Chen Zhiji, this waste, Lao Tzu wanted to impeach him in front of the general。。。。。。 Say whatever you want, what are you doing? ”

Chen Tiaoyuan's last sentence was said to a staff officer who wanted to speak but stopped.

"Listen, Commander—"

"What do you say, listen? Listen to your mother! ”

Chen Tiaoyuan was furious, and a slap made the staff officer all over the ground, and gradually, he also heard a buzzing sound from the sky, which became louder and louder, and gradually turned into a thrilling scream.

"Hidden! Hide now! It's the enemy's fighter! ”

Chen Tiaoyuan is worthy of being an old sparrow on the battlefield, and he instantly heard what this voice represented, as a senior officer in Beiyang, although the aircraft of this era are rare, but he has seen it, and Beiyang also has its own flight team.

It turned out that after the air force took off, it was found that the original plan was useless, Li Qingquan's army had already been mixed with Lu Yang's army, one side was chasing and the other was on the run, where was there any blank position for himself to perform, and Lu Yang still had a lot of camouflaged Northern Expeditionary Army under him, Lu Yang and the two also surrendered, who would blow it up themselves?

So the commander had an idea, and flew over to Chen Tiaoyuan's position, and when he saw Chen Tiaoyuan's army in a mess, where would he be polite, he chose the target and began to bombard. Explode.

Chen Tiaoyuan's headquarters was already hidden enough to be found on land, but it was different in the air, the tall radio antenna betrayed them, and the headquarters was immediately targeted by a fighter plane.

After putting a few aerial bombs. After the bombing, the fighter began to circle and strafe in the air, and the pilot would never know how much he had done, and Chen Tiaoyuan's command headquarters was instantly razed to the ground, and almost no one escaped.

Other planes kept hovering in the air, looking for valuable targets, and these open-air artillery positions were also miserable, with more than a dozen planes taking turns to fight. Bombing and strafing, Feng Guozhang spent a lot of money to set up a powerful artillery array before it could play a role, and there were heavy casualties, and no one dared to stay on the position.

The Beiyang Army is also Chinese, so the air force is not too much for themselves, since the enemy is already in chaos, and the artillery has been reimbursed (they don't know that even the command and commander have been reimbursed), so they keep creating chaos, so that the Beiyang Army, which has been in chaos, has lost the possibility of maintaining its structure.

After most of the planes returned, Chen Tiaoyuan's reinforcements finally gathered a few teams, and when Lu Yang and the two routs arrived, they immediately dispersed the team that had just been assembled, and took the lead in running backwards.

That's not all, these routs were followed by a group of iron bumps emitting black smoke and making a loud roar, and these iron bumps saw the white eyes in front of the gun barrels, and one of their positions was overturned, and these iron bumps were followed by neat pursuers.

Now even a fool knows that the Beiyang Army has been defeated, and under this kind of dimensionality reduction blow, even the gods can't save themselves, so when will they stay if they don't flee at this time?

Countless Beiyang officers knew that they were defeated, but they didn't know why they were defeated, so they inexplicably followed the large army, artillery, guns, gold and silver, military supplies, food, 。。。。。。

I don't want anything, although I don't know what I'm afraid of, I'm afraid anyway, the whole team is running, and I really have no reason not to run.

If there is a God's perspective, you will find that tens of thousands of people are running on land, and tens of thousands of people are chasing behind, and those who can't run directly raise their hands and surrender, and the rest lose their armor and seem to have to run with the team, and when they run to Suzhou City, they find that Suzhou City has already hung the flag of the New Republic of China.

I don't know who took the lead, running around Suzhou City, some of them ran out of physical strength and surrendered on their knees, and some of them continued to run.

And Li Qingquan was not in a hurry, knowing that Suzhou City had been successfully taken, he began to let his subordinates take turns to chase him, anyway, the enemy had already lost his heart, and he was not afraid of what tricks they would swipe, how could he let go of this good opportunity to replenish the troops?

And the station was also taken, the front was pursued by part of the troops, and the rest of the people got on the train directly, and when the people in front were tired, they began to chase in turn, anyway, they wanted to annihilate these Beiyang troops.

At that time, Nanjing City will be like a lamb to the slaughter, waiting for itself to receive it at any time, and regain Nanjing, one of the capitals of the country, will not be able to run, although the first merit is not his own, but the first to enter Nanjing City is himself, and a major general rank is not able to run.
