Chapter 1067: True and False British Army

Yuan Shikai jumped up from his seat all of a sudden, what, Zhang Xiaohuai actually led the army to Xiantao?

Even Chen Qimei's death in battle didn't give him such a big shock, Chen Qimei died in battle, he was just missing a right-hand man, but Zhang Xiaohuai's army suddenly inserted into Xiantao, and the soldiers pointed directly at Wuchang, which directly threatened Sun Yuan's core forces!

Zhang Xiaohuai was like a nail that wedged Yuan Shikai's heart fiercely, how could this not make Yuan Shikai panic? Just one Zhang Yihu has already made Yuan Shikai very nervous, difficult to resist, and suddenly killed a Cheng Biting Jin behind his back, which is fatal!

Yuan Shikai shouted: "Kexiang, can the news be serious? ”

Zhang Kexiang nodded and said, "The news is true!" Now Zhang Xiaohuai's army is launching a fierce attack on Xiantao, trying to replenish the logistical baggage in Xiantao! ”

Yuan Shikai thumped his head fiercely and roared: "How many people are in Zhang Xiaohuai's troops?" ”

Zhang Kexiang replied: "President, according to the report from the front, there is almost a division of troops, 17,800 people. Read the full text of the latest chapter"

Yuan Shikai's face was already gloomy and was about to wring out of the water, although this force is not much, but Zhang Xiaohuai is a rising star in the Chinese Revolutionary Army, brave and good at fighting, after the Sino-Russian war in Inner Mongolia, he became famous, a brigade knocked out a Mongolian cavalry division, and the battle with Tsarist Russia was also a success, a real fierce general!

Yuan Shikai roared: "Kexiang, immediately gather all the new troops in the sixteenth town and advance towards the southwest of Wuchang to meet Zhang Xiaohuai!" Do your best to annihilate Zhang Xiaohuai's department! ”

Zhang Kexiang grinned, I am my mother, use my 15,000 people of the 16th Town New Army against the 17,000 people of the 10th Division of the Chinese Revolutionary Army, and I want to annihilate Zhang Xiaohuai's department, I am not destroyed by others, that is a great luck. [Lots of good]

Zhang Kexiang snorted: "President, the Chinese Revolutionary Army is strong and strong, and its combat power is far beyond our comparison, not to mention that the troops are superior to our army, and it is really ...... for me to annihilate them."

Yuan Shikai snorted angrily: "Okay, the Chinese Revolutionary Army is strong, I also know that I can't annihilate Zhang Xiaohuai, I don't blame you, but, no matter what, I have to resist Zhang Xiaohuai's attack for me, at least block them in Xiantao, hold on for a month, what you want, what I give you, if they let their army rush into Wuchang, we will suffer from the enemy on our backs, then it will really be all over!" ”

Zhang Kexiang hurriedly stood up and said: "Yes, don't worry, the president can rest assured, even if he fights to the last person, his subordinates will also block Zhang Xiaohuai in Xiantao!" ”

Yuan Shikai nodded, patted Zhang Kexiang on the shoulder and said, "Kexiang, as long as you can complete this mission, I will be promoted to your new army in command of the three towns!" Well done! ”

After Zhang Kexiang retreated, Yuan Shikai's face completely collapsed, what should I do? What to do? Now he is really forced into a desperate situation, once Zhang Yihu launches an offensive again, it will be difficult for him to hold on, this is really fatal.

Yuan Shikai stomped his feet hatefully and shouted: "Come on, immediately send a telegram to Tokyo, asking Japanese Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi to seize the time to march into the three eastern provinces, once they take the Northeast, I, Yuan Shikai, on behalf of the Chinese government, will teach them the Northeast!" ”

The people around him immediately ran down and sent a telegram to the Japanese side.

Yuan Shikai muttered: "Zhang Xiaohuai, Zhang Xiaohuai, why is the speed of this march so fast, there are two towns in Sichuan!" More than 30,000 people, even if Zhang Xiaohuai attacked with all his might, how could he advance the front to Hubei in less than a month without bloodshed, what is going on? I don't believe that Zhang Xiaohuai really has such a great ability, even if Zhang Yi personally goes out, he may not be able to defeat the troops of the two towns that far surpass his own in just one month, and then quickly advance to Hubei! ”

Did Zhang Xiaohuai really defeat the new army of the two towns so quickly, and then the divine army descended from the sky to Wuchang?

Really.

Zhang Xiaohuai is the best at fighting skillfully.

In Hanzhong, Zhang Xiaohuai concentrated a division and a Jewish brigade to advance to Xichuan.

The two towns of Sichuan, even the strength of the two towns, all concentrated in the two main roads of Jiange and Nanping, the road into Sichuan is blocked, if it is attacked, not to mention a month, even if it is half a year, it will definitely not be able to attack, after all, the other party occupies a geographical advantage, and at the same time the army is strong, far above the Chinese Revolutionary Army, even if Zhang Xiaohuai is powerful, it is useless!

However, Zhang Xiaohuai came up with a bad idea, with the Jewish Brigade as the vanguard, and even directly pretended to be British, anyway, most of the Jewish volunteers were from Britain and the United States, not to mention the enemy army, even the Europeans did not ask whether they were British and American.

The brigade commander Sakov, who claimed to be a British brigade from Yichang, was the brigade commander of the British brigade and came to help the Hubei New Army garrison the Sword Pavilion.

Zang Keming, the commander of the Hubei New Army, was Zhang Zhidong's confidant, and when he came to Sichuan, he heard that Yuan Shikai and Zhang Zhidong were trying to contact Britain and France, asking the two countries to put pressure on the Republic of China, or directly send troops to help the Qing court solve the urgent need, and now suddenly a foreign ** team suddenly appeared, claiming to be British.

This made Zang Keming confused, I don't know why, the British came to help? Why didn't you get any exact news from Wuchang, such a thing, Wuchang will definitely inform himself, although he doesn't have a telegraph here, but there is a town in Nanping not far away, it is impossible that he doesn't know any news at all.

However, the army in front of him is definitely a foreigner, not a Chinese revolutionary army! And fluent English, he can still distinguish, he was also assigned by Zhang Zhidong to study in Europe, although he is not proficient in English, but he can still distinguish some daily military terms.

Just when Zang Keming hesitated, the Jewish brigade didn't stop for a moment, and rushed towards the position of the Sword Pavilion!

Zang Keming's face changed, and he shouted: "Opposite, this is a military forbidden place, you should stop advancing immediately, otherwise, we will shoot!" ”

Sakov, the leader, shouted: "Bastard! We are the garrison of the British Empire in Shanghai, thousands of miles away, come to help, you don't even let us get close to the position, the dignity of our British Empire absolutely does not allow you to blaspheme like this! ”

Zang Keming's face changed, rubbing, what I said, even if you are the army of the British Empire, you can't rush over like this without understanding the situation.

But shoot, or shoot?

Zang Keming didn't have such a burden, not only he didn't, but even the entire South China didn't have the commander who dared to shoot straight at the British army! This is no child's play!

Just as Zang Keming was hesitating, a charge of the Jewish Brigade had already reached the front of the position of the Hubei New Army, and Sakov's face changed, and he shouted: "Brothers, fire with all your might!" ”
