Zhang Zuolin was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Zuoxiang, what's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Zuoxiang said sadly: "Division commander, first the revolutionary army of these two regiments desperately blocked us, and then suddenly all of them disappeared, you must know that although they have suffered a lot of losses, they still maintain their strong combat effectiveness, if they want to stop us, they can definitely hold on for a day and a half, and now they suddenly evacuate to the east, I am afraid that they have some tricks......"

Zhang Zuolin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Big brother, although what you said makes sense, but you have to be clear, now the ministers are waiting for our emergency rescue, if we don't hurry up the time, I'm afraid they will be wiped out!" ”

Zhang Zuoxiang replied: "That's exactly the case, that's why I suspect it, division commander, you know very well that the military strength of the Taiwan Army is far inferior to the first division, just these two regiments, have already resisted more than 10,000 of my people, two days, it is conceivable, how can more than 10,000 people under the chief of staff be the opponent of the main force of the first division of more than 10,000 people, not to mention, the troops under the chief of staff have just taken Kaohsiung Port, and the fierce battle lasted for more than five days, and then began to march towards Taipei, and the soldiers were exhausted to the extreme, They are no match for the 1st Division! ”

Zhang Zuolin said impatiently: "It is precisely because of this that we have to hurry up, Brother Xiangxiang, what do you mean?" ”

Zhang Zuoxiang sighed and said: "I guess that the two regiments of the First Division are suddenly withdrawing because of the major changes in the battle situation in Wufeng Mountain, at least, the army under the chief of staff is afraid that it has been absolutely heavily damaged, and if it is unfortunate, it is possible to be completely annihilated by others......"

Zhang Zuolin's heart was shocked, he patronized and rushed to help Sun Liechen, but he didn't take into account this kind of accident, the authorities are confused, if Sun Liechen's department really has an accident, he will be miserable!

Zhang Zuoxiang continued: "Division commander, it's not the sharpness of my elder's family, extinguishing his own prestige, if Sun Liechen's chief of staff has failed now, then just by virtue of our more than 10,000 people, it is definitely not someone's opponent, not to mention, we have gone through two days of rapid marching, successive battles, and the consumption is quite large, once in this case, we encounter the first division that is pursuing by victory, there is absolutely no good fruit for us to eat!" ”

Zhang Zuolin nodded, fell into deep thought, and after a while, Zhang Zuolin said: "However, we can't let them attack, what if Brother Sun Liechen has nothing to do now?" Wouldn't that be a great loss? ”

Zhang Zuoxiang sighed: "Division commander, why are you still fantasizing that the chief of staff can lead the main force to escape?" Now it's the fourth day, and in that small area of Wufeng Mountain, with the power of the 1st Division's artillery group, how many people do you think they will survive? Division commander, I suggest that we immediately withdraw to Taipei, seize the time to make defensive deployments, and wait for the support of the Southern Revolutionary Party and Britain and Japan.......

Zhang Zuolin's expression suddenly dimmed, even if Sun Liechen was not defeated, with the strength of the Taiwan Army, against the first division, the victory or defeat would be between five and five, if Sun Liechen's department was severely damaged or surrounded by others, then there would be nothing, one-on-one situation, he would not have any chance of winning at all!

After a long time, Zhang Zuolin made up his mind and said fiercely: "Damn, I can't control so much, give an order, the army will be rectified on the spot, and after an hour, immediately withdraw from the army, order the reconnaissance company, and go to the south to spy on the military situation, and I must find out the situation of Sun Liechen's department!" ”

An hour, before an hour had passed, the detectives who had gone south to spy on the military intelligence had already run back. [See the latest chapters of this book, please go to the hot one.]

The scout's war horse did not stop for a moment, rushed straight to Zhang Zuolin's body, jumped off the horse, and said quickly: "Division commander, no, now the first division of the Chinese Revolutionary Army has all gone north, and now the forward is only thirty miles away from us!" ”

Yes!

Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zuoxiang and Tang Yulin beside him were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground!

What's going on?

Could it be that Sun Liechen has really been defeated? Even if he defeated Sun Liechen, he wouldn't be able to catch up so quickly, right?

Zhang Zuolin shouted: "The first division went north? What about Sun Liechen and the 10,000 brothers? ”

The scout wiped his sweat and said: "Division commander, the first division is very guarded, I, I don't dare to get too close, but look at the lineup of the first division, I'm afraid that Chief of Staff Sun's troops have been completely defeated......"

Zhang Zuolin was really panicked, he came so fast, according to such a marching speed, I was afraid that it would not take more than two hours for the forward of the first division to meet him.

In the current situation, it is impossible for his own troops to be the opponent of the first division of others!

Tang Yulin looked at Zhang Zuolin and said urgently: "Commander, you, what do you think you should do now?" If we start a war with the First Division at this time, we will almost certainly lose! ”

Zhang Zuolin looked at Tang Yulin hatefully and shouted, "Then what do you say we should do?" You said! Do you want us to turn around and run? ”

Tang Yulin hurriedly said: "That's nature, division commander, now our best choice is to turn around and run, hurry back to Taipei, with the help of Taipei's fortifications, maybe there are still some chances of victory, field battles?" We're not rivals at all! ”

Zhang Zuolin shouted: "Nonsense, don't you know, now that the whole line is retreating, can you outrun others?" You don't want to think about it, it's been two days since we left Taipei, and we are at least 170 miles away from Taipei. ”

Zhang Zuoxiang said in a deep voice: "Division commander, now we can only give up the car to protect the commander, order a regiment to hold here, if the first division really pursues with all its might, they will be nailed here to cover our retreat, and win time for our retreat, as long as we return to Taipei, it will be safe for the time being, Jiang Baili's first division will not be able to take Taipei in a short time!" ”

Time was pressing, Zhang Zuolin didn't have time to think about it, and shouted loudly: "Order, the 10th Regiment and the 11th Regiment stay, give me to hold on here until dawn the next day, as long as it is delayed until the next day, the first division will not be able to catch up with us even if it is fast, order the main force to immediately retreat at full speed in the direction of Taipei, fast!" ”

The entire Taiwanese army immediately took action, and the army began to urgently retreat towards the way it came!

On the hillside in the distance, Meng Kai held a telescope and carefully checked the movements of the Taiwan army, and after discovering the movements of the Taiwan army, Meng Kai shouted: "Old Xiao, old Xiao!" Oh no, that guy Zhang Zuolin sensed our intentions and tried to escape! ”
