Looking at the several cadres with high morale, Xu Shuzheng gradually gained confidence. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]。 For more recent chapters, visit:

Xu Shuzheng spread out the military map of Fujian Province, pointed and said: "You see, now our position is on the west side of Fuzhou, originally we were going to take Fuzhou and Putian, but now we have no such opportunity, we have no backup, if we sit in a lonely city, it is easy to be surrounded by others, gather and annihilate!" ”

Tan Jitao asked, "Teacher, then what should we do?" ”

Xu Shuzheng groaned: "Now there is the eleventh town in northern Fujian, the twelfth town in western Fujian, and the fourteenth town in Guangdong are stepping up their march and moving closer to southern Fujian. The order given to me by the General Staff is to 'advance' towards the north, and the intention of Commander Ling and Deputy Chief Duan is already obvious, he wants us to quickly break through the blockade of the 11th town in northern Fujian, quickly enter Zhejiang, and enter Jiangsu through Zhejiang, so that we will join forces with Chief of Staff Cai Yi, who has just completed crossing the river, which can not only enhance the strength of the revolutionary army on the Qinhuai front, but also preserve our strength! ”

Tan Jitao smiled bitterly: "Commander, a small eleventh town is not in our eyes, they can't help us fight at all, but Zhejiang is not happy, it is Tan Feng who guards Zhejiang!" ”

Xu Shuzheng fell silent for a while, although he didn't have much to do with Tan Feng, but Tan Feng, as one of the four King Kongs under the president, his ability must be extremely outstanding, definitely above his old commander Ling Chuanqing, even Wu Peifu in the back may not be comparable to him, otherwise he will definitely not become the president's most relied on henchman.

I can underestimate the Twelfth Town, but in the face of this famous general of the original Republic of China, if I underestimate it, it will undoubtedly be self-defeating! In China, I am afraid that except for the president and the general minister, no one can underestimate Tan Feng's military ability! No one has such capital, not even Zhang Yihu, who is the commander of the six major group armies, does not have such capital!

Xu Shuzheng sighed and said: "Forget it, no matter, since the General Staff has issued such an order, then there are their considerations, maybe Tan Fengfeng is looking at the past feelings, maybe we can let our seventh division go, and some of the old brothers in the division are familiar with Tan Feng!" ”

Chang Zhihong asked: "Division, then you have confirmed, we are going to advance towards northern Fujian?" ”

Xu Shuzheng punched hard, slammed on the table, and shouted: "Yes, we are going to advance to the north, in a short time, the eleventh town and the twelfth town that can be surrounded are the eleventh and twelfth towns, the fourteenth town in Guangdong, and they can't catch up with us in the short term, if it is the Qing army in these two towns, it is not in our eyes, if we play the 'medicine' enough, we can even fight with them, and we may not be able to beat them!" ”

Chang Zhihong said worriedly: "This makes sense, it's just that Zhejiang has Tan Feng, and now it is its own master, we want to pass through Zhejiang, but it is not easy; Second, it is not only these two towns that can be quickly surrounded, but also the fifteenth town in Jiangxi! That is to say, if we can't defeat the eleventh town in a short period of time, we will fall into the sandwich of the three towns, not to mention passing through Zhejiang, I'm afraid that we won't even be able to rush out of Fujian! ”

Xu Shuzheng's face was hideous, and he shouted: "If you can't rush out, you have to rush, now is the time to be desperate, desperate, we still have a chance to live, if we don't work hard, then we will die!" ”

Tan Jitao nodded in agreement: "Yes, now is not the time for us to be afraid of wolves and tigers, we must go out of the way!" ”

Xu Shuzheng continued: "If we play 'medicine', we can support it for a while longer, but our food is a big problem, and our military food will definitely not be able to support it for so long, I'm afraid that even five or six days will be enough!" Therefore, we must complete our food supply as soon as possible! It is absolutely not okay to plunder the people! ”

Chang Zhihong replied: "Then we will attack the city, anyway, there is enough food in the south, and the nearby prefectures and counties will have enough grain, as soon as our army arrives, there is absolutely no prefecture and county that can hold it, take the prefecture and county, let's immediately open a warehouse and release grain!" ”

Xu Shuzheng nodded and replied: "Well, it makes sense, the closest thing to us now is Fuzhou, but Fuzhou has a tall city wall and the most garrisons, and it is also contrary to us, it is not the best choice, the second is Nanping!" With our marching speed, we can reach Nanping in one day and one night, as long as we are fast enough, then we can occupy Nanping and get heavy supplies before the eleventh town reacts! ”

Tan Jitao laughed and said: "Yes, it's just right, let's go by the way!" ”

Xu Shuzheng's face was straight, and he said: "The news of Taiwan's drastic changes, we still need to keep it secret, we can't let such news 'disturb' the morale of the military, the news is only conveyed to the regimental level and above, and all personnel below the regimental level have no right to get the news. ”

The middle man nodded, his face was a little more solemn, this is not a joke, even in a powerful legion, once such news spreads, the soldiers below will be disheartened, this is the most fatal.

Xu Shuzheng was about to give the order to deploy the operation, when hurried footsteps sounded outside the tent, and the 'door' curtain was lifted, and Shang Zhiqing, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, broke in from the outside.

Xu Shuzheng frowned and shouted, "What's the matter, didn't you see that an emergency meeting was being held?" ”

Shang Zhiqing hurriedly said: "Division commander, something is wrong, our scouts have found a large number of Qing troops on the west side who are rapidly approaching us, according to reports, I am afraid that there are at least 25,000 people, and in the area of southern Fujian, I have also found that a large number of Qing troops are gathering and moving towards the north, I am afraid that in less than three days, they will arrive in the Fuzhou area!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, Yuan Shikai's movements were so fast, it was only a little more than a day before the Taiwan incident, and the Qing troops of all departments had already begun to act!

Xu Shuzheng shouted: "Shang Zhiqing, tell me the specific location of the enemy army!" ”

Shang Zhiqing took a breath and said: "The Qing army on the west side is divided into two parts, and more than 10,000 people on the south side have arrived at Mingxi; More than 10,000 people on the north side have already arrived in Taining, as for the direction of southern Fujian, the information we got was still yesterday, and now they have entered the territory of Fujian for more than 100 miles, and are marching towards the central Fujian area! As for northern Fujian, there is not much movement now, and the eleventh town does not seem to have any plans to attack, but to build fortifications on the military roads in the area of Jian'ou and Nanping, which seems to be to strictly prevent us from attacking! ”

Xu Shuzheng said coldly: "Well, it's time for us to make a move!" Say
