Chapter 974: One Enemy and Three Dangers lurk
c_t; The cavalry battalion snatched the entire Nanping City with a sudden attack with lightning speed, and when the Qing army in the two towns that was rushing towards Fujian got the news, it made a big jump. Rainbow, with you all the way! . For more up-to-date chapters, visit:.
I didn't expect that this Xu Shuzheng reacted so quickly, after entering Fujian, this was just the fourth day, and he actually began to attack Nanping in an attempt to gain a firm foothold in Fujian.
It is wishful thinking to want our encirclement to be as bad as before!
Ni Sichong, the commander of the twelfth town, and Xiao Yaonan, the commander of the fourteenth town, are very annoyed that Xu Shuzheng's seventh division has not stopped until now, and the two of them ordered at the same time to speed up the march, and they must encircle and annihilate Xu Shuzheng in the shortest possible time!
At this time, Yuan Shikai also sent a telegram in Wuchang, asking the three towns to narrow the encirclement and eliminate Xu Shuzheng's seventh division in the Jian'ou area.
Ni Sichong sneered, threw the telegram aside, and shouted: "Lord Yuan is really too careful, a small division, actually used the troops of our three towns, or even four towns, this is simply killing 'chickens' with a slaughtering knife!" The order is that all the troops will go all out to 'advance' towards Nanping, and within two hours, they must arrive at the south side of Nanping and prepare to attack Xu Shuzheng's department! ”
Ni Sichong didn't put Xu Shuzheng in his eyes, Xiao Yaonan didn't put Xu Shuzheng in his eyes either, they are all new-style generals who have been vigorously promoted by Yuan Shikai recently, and they are all talents who have received moral education from Tianjin Wubeitang, all of them are arrogant and arrogant, and they are quite unconvinced by the achievements of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, not only are they not convinced by the Chinese Revolutionary Army, but they are also unconvinced by each other!
Ni Sichong, Xiao Yaonan, and Cao Kun have been competing in the dark, to see who can be the governor or admiral of any province, and now that the war is ahead, it will be even more to grab the credit, if it weren't for Yuan Shikai and Cao Kun to give a death order, asking him to only defend northern Fujian, and not take the initiative to attack, I'm afraid, I am afraid that he has already rushed up now, and in the last battle of Immortal Bay, Cao Kun suffered a lot of losses!
The twelfth town and the fourteenth town rushed towards Nanping like a whirlwind. [I love to read]
The twelfth town is relatively close and the first to arrive, and Ni Sichong, who can't wait, immediately ordered to immediately rearm and prepare for the attack!
However, what Ni Sichong didn't expect was that before he could make a move, Xu Shuzheng took the lead!
The Seventh Division is the main force of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, almost all artillery is equipped with cars for transportation, and the mobility is far superior to the new army of the Qing Army, although the two sides are almost the same as Nanping, but Xu Shuzheng's Seventh Division arrived more than three hours earlier than the Qing Army, more than three hours, enough for the soldiers of the Seventh Division to rest!
Xu Shuzheng mobilized the 39th Regiment and the Marines to occupy the key road and block the 14th Town. The remaining seven regiments of the Seventh Division, plus the artillery regiment, were all transferred to the south side of Nanping City, and before Ni Sichong could gain a firm foothold, he took the lead in launching an attack!
An artillery regiment of nearly 100 'guns' of all kinds launched a fierce artillery bombardment towards the 12th Town!
On the position of the twelfth town, in an instant, there was gunpowder smoke everywhere, and the sound of explosions was endless, shaking through the nine skies.
Ni Si was so angry that he jumped to his feet, what the hell, the Chinese Revolutionary Army was too 'yin', and he actually launched an attack while his foothold was not stable, 'bastard', 'bastard'!
However, the art of war: water is impermanent, soldiers are impermanent, fighting is like this, as long as you can win the victory, then any means can come up, not to mention waiting for work and attacking first, as Ni Sichong, I can't help but understand this truth!
Ni Sichong hurriedly organized the Twelfth Town to fight back, but as soon as he came up, the Twelfth Town was pressed and beaten by the Seventh Division, and if he wanted to turn the tables, it would be difficult.
There are more than 15,000 people in the 12th Town, and after the 7th Division has lost two regiments, it is only less than 14,000 people, and it is still slightly weak in terms of strength, but the powerful heavy artillery firepower and the 'sophisticated' guns make the 7th Division have the upper hand.
Ni Sichong tried to counterattack several times, but it didn't work at all, under the situation that the strength was almost the same, the 12th Town was obviously disadvantaged, and it was also attacked by others, and it was even more difficult to withstand the attack of the desperate Seventh Division!
The battle lasted until dusk, when the battle ended with Ni Sichong having to order his subordinates to retreat more than ten miles south.
The Seventh Division, which had won the bargain, did not hesitate to open the way with an artillery regiment, and the strength of five regiments drove towards the north of Nanping City, and was about to catch up with the 39th Regiment in a 'fierce' and fierce 'engagement' The 14th Town was wrapped in the middle, and the two sides were in another bloody battle!
The senior generals of the Seventh Division are determined to fight against the water, and the soldiers below think that they have landed from behind, standing on a big bargain, and their morale is booming.
It wasn't until dawn the next day that the Seventh Division slowly retreated, and in this battle, Ni Sichong and Xiao Yaonan, who suffered a big loss, no longer dared to underestimate the Seventh Division, and they no longer dared to underestimate the young Xu Shuzheng!
Underestimated, isn't it shameful enough, the men and horses of the two towns, almost twice as many as the Seventh Division, were actually defeated by Xu Shuzheng, each of them, and the two towns were beaten to the ground, if this is spread, the reputation will be ruined!
The two people who had no mind to look down on each other contacted each other and began to prepare to work together to deal with this Xu Shuzheng!
Not only the two of them, but even Cao Kun in the north began to get nervous, a one-day battle, first defeated the twelfth town, and then mobilized the army, and defeated the fourteenth town again, whether it was the choice of timing, or the choice of the battlefield, or the grasp of the battlefield situation, Xu Shuzheng undoubtedly wanted to beat the three of them, and it is no wonder that in the battle of Fairy Bay and Mawei, he was disgraced by this kid, and now he has a foil for himself!
The people and horses of Ni Sichong and Xiao Yaonan have suffered a big loss in front of others, and they are not too ashamed compared to themselves, right?
Cao Kun thought to himself.
Nanping City, Xu Shuzheng is not the time to get carried away now, although he has grabbed the limelight by grasping the battle situation, but it does not have much impact on the overall situation! The strength of more than 40,000 people in three towns of the family tightly sandwiched themselves in the middle, if one of them cannot be defeated in a short time, it will be really dangerous to take yourself! say
