Chapter 233 The war in Fujian comes to an end
The gunner laughed, "Haha, battalion commander, in fact, you have long wanted to give Tamsui City a shot!" ”
"Why do you say that?"
The gunner raised his thumb in front of him, "Every time you exercise, you ask us to aim in the direction of 350, which is the city gate cave of Tamsui City!" ”
"You clever ghost! I call this practice based on battle, you know! Okay, let's rest. The battalion commander knocked on the gunner's skull.
"Report to the battalion commander, several large trucks are coming." The guard reported.
"Where, dare to come to the front line, is it Chen Tong's spy!" The battalion commander was very vigilant.
"He said he was here to replenish the cannon for us, you see, this is Chief Xu's warrant!"
The battalion commander was overjoyed after reading it, "This is really a custard bag falling from the sky, go, hurry up." ”
"What's the matter, battalion commander, why are you so happy?" The gunner asked.
"The cannon is coming, the cannon is coming."
The battalion commander rushed to Don with his men, and Don was organizing people to transport ammunition and weapons down from the car. The battalion commander happily shook Tang Cong's hand, "You are?" ”
"We belong to the Blue Coat Society, and this batch of Italian guns is specially supplied to you, and there is also a lot of ammunition."
"Oops, great, great."
The battalion commander led the men to assemble the mountain guns and quickly pushed them to the position. The gunner rubbed the barrel of the gun and shouted excitedly, "Battalion commander, this is really a good gun, it has all the parts, and there is a scope here, you see." ”
The battalion commander handed Tang Cong a cigarette, "This is really thanks to you!" ”
Tang never took the cigarette, but looked at the opposite Tamsui City with great interest, "This Chen and his troops are all in the opposite city!" ”
"Yes, your artillery came too timely, I worry every day, although everyone is truce at the moment, but if one day the two sides start a battle, our artillery is not an opponent at all."
"That's what we should do, try the cannon and sign for it if you can. It just so happened that I also wanted to see how our artillery works. Tang Cong said.
"It's simple, the gunner prepares, one round loads." The battalion commander shouted.
The loader carried the air again and was about to stuff it into the new Italian cannon, and the battalion commander went up and kicked him, "Lose your mother, are you sick, test the cannon!" Take real cannonballs. The loader scratched his head and put the real shell into the barrel.
"Target 350, ready, put!"
The gunner pretended to pull the arquebus, and then made an explosion.
"Captain Tang, under normal circumstances, this cannonball would have hit, and then the tower of Tamsui City opposite would have been destroyed." The battalion commander introduced the combat process of the artillery.
An imperceptible smile appeared on Tang's face, and he took out a folder, "This is the handover list, you can sign it here, and then our work will be settled." ”
The battalion commander signed his name with a wave of his pen, "Thank you so much, I'm going to invite you to drink today... ”
Before he could finish speaking, a group of men with weapons in their hands and masks on their heads rushed to the territory of the artillery camp. They all worked extremely hard, and it didn't take long to subdue the battalion commander's men. The leader pointed a gun at the battalion commander and Tang Cong, "Which of you is the artillery battalion commander!" ”
"Who are you who dare to touch us?"
The man knocked the battalion commander on the head with a gun, and the battalion commander fainted on the spot. The leader ordered his men to concentrate all the men of the artillery battalion near the trucks, so that they could face the vehicles and not look in the direction of the artillery.
Tang Cong saw that the situation had stabilized, and winked at the leader, "You kid is really acting like this!" ”
Jia Aiguo took off his mask, "Hehe, captain, what should I do next?" ”
"Escort me over, and then you see the rope behind the butt of that cannon? If you pull hard, the cannonball will hit Tamsui City. ”
After a while, a loud roar was heard, and the cannonball flew to Tamsui City, hitting the city gate with one shot. The battalion commander was awakened by this loud noise, "Who shoots, who shoots?" Tang Cong on the side took care of him pretendically, "I don't know, those guys drove us all here." ”
Jia Aiguo put on his mask again and ran to his side, "It's not good, the cannon goes off, the enemy will find us immediately, everyone retreat!" ”
Jia Aiguo: They got into a car and drove away. The battalion commander ran to the vicinity of the cannon with Tang Cong's support, and he panicked, "Damn, this really hit the cannonball to Tamsui City, it's over." ”
What happened next was exactly the same as what Dai and Tang Cong discussed, the defenders of Tamsui City found themselves under attack by the artillery battalion, and the troops drove out of the city to meet Xu Chongzhi's troops, and skirmishes broke out between the two sides. It didn't take long for the news to reach Xu's ears, and Xu was shocked, "How did you do it, haven't you been safe all the time?" ”
The subordinates on the front line were also confused, "I don't know, commander, we first heard a cannon shot, and then the enemy went out of the city to attack us." Now, in addition to Tamsui, the defenders of Chen's other territories are also beginning to move. Commander Lee's troops are not there, and our defense line is at risk of being attacked and breached by the enemy at any time! ”
Xu hung up the phone, although he didn't know why this happened, but it was obviously too late to find out the cause of the incident. Xu first called Mr. Sun to report the situation.
Mr. Sun seemed unusually calm, he just sighed, and then there was a long silence.
Xu was anxious, "Mr. Sun, why don't you speak?" ”
Sun was completely furious, "I speak, what do you ask me to say." Your Cantonese army does not obey my dispatch, and he Li Fulin has to go to Fujian to join in the fun. What is happening now, Chen's troops may attack us at any time. Didn't you give me a promise that nothing would go wrong? Sun hung up the phone.
Xu twisted his neck, "Send a telegram to Commander Li Fulin immediately, there is a change in the Dongjiang River, return quickly!" ”
In this way, after Wang Le and Gao Xie Zhang jointly swallowed the remnants of Wang Le's army, the problem of southern Fujian was also solved. Now all that remains is the peace talks in northern Fujian. General Lu burst into tears after receiving his son's handwritten letter, but fortunately, his son's life was still safe. He made up his mind to withdraw his troops. "Zidong is not a good brother of mine, he is willing to accompany my son as a hostage. Zidong was ordered to be the chief of staff of the Zhejiang Army and the commander of the 25th Division from now on. All troops are ready to evacuate northern Fujian. Call the other side and tell them that we must ensure that our flank is not attacked by the Hubei army, otherwise we will not be able to evacuate. ”
Ding Bai wanted to persuade him again, but General Lu stopped him, "No need to say more, I have made up my mind." ”
