The morale of the Qing army plummeted, and at this time, Jin Yunpeng thought of gathering the rest of the defeated troops, and immediately suggested to Zhang Yongcheng to send people to find the defeated troops to collect the army. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Zhang Yongcheng was already six gods at this time, and he only knew that he would definitely be removed from his post because of this, so he let Jin Yunpeng serve as the commander again and recuperate himself. Then Jin Yunpeng selected the sergeants to return to the main battlefield to find the lost soldiers, and lit torches to guide the direction of the Qing army, and finally let many lost Qing soldiers find the headquarters, and in one night, Jin Yunpeng actually collected more than 20,000 defeated Qing soldiers, and even found a Beiyang Army artillery battalion hidden in the farm.

The mahjong general Jin Yunpeng regathered the army, and Duan Zhigui helped preside over military affairs to pacify the soldiers, treat each soldier, and send bedding and cotton clothes, so that the Qing army would not collapse. However, the Qing army had lost its morale and was unable to fight back, so it had to wait for follow-up support.

At dawn, suddenly a large army came to the front pavilion in the rear, Jin Yunpeng immediately went to greet him, and found that it was actually the twentieth town of the Beiyang New Army, they actually went around in a circle, ran north for thirty miles from the east side of Dugong Mountain, and after a little rest, they arrived at the Jinpu Railway, and returned to the front line along the Jinpu Railway.

The twentieth town had 17,000 people, and 2,000 people had been lost, leaving only 15,000 people, but this 15,000-strong army was the most neat army of the Qing army at this time, and it was a miracle that they even ran so far and did not leave artillery.

Jin Yunpeng, Duan Zhigui, Pan Yuying, Zhao Kui, Mi Zhenbiao and others gathered together, looking at each other and not knowing what to do, so they could only sit and wait for support.

When Yuan Shikai received Duan Qirui's detailed report, a mouthful of old blood suddenly spurted out and fainted, and it took emergency treatment from the doctor to wake up Yuan Shikai, and immediately ordered Duan Qirui to leave immediately without delay.

In addition, due to the meritorious work of Pan Yuying and Jin Yunpeng, Jin Yunpeng was restored to the post of commander of the fifth town, and Pan Yuying was officially appointed as the commander of the twentieth town, and Huang Bo's plan saved tens of thousands of lives of the army, which was really a great achievement, and Huang Bo was transferred to the post of chief of staff of the fifth town, and assisted Duan Qirui in commanding the whole army.

All of a sudden, a twenty-six-year-old young man walked to the stage, Huang Bo, the old watch of Jiangxi, became the supreme commander of the second road of the Qing army, I have to say that war is the best place to create heroes, it is no wonder that soldiers like war throughout the ages, because war brings them glory and status, and peace is the biggest obstacle to suppressing soldiers.

After Huang Bo served as the acting commander of the second route of the Qing army, he immediately divided his troops into Erlang Mountain to prevent the Jiangbei army from encircling the Qing army, and gradually scattered and supplemented the patrol battalions of the fifth town, so that the fifth town quickly restored the establishment of 24,000 people and won the support of the officers of the fifth town.

After Huang Bo's reorganization, the Beiyang Army was temporarily divided into seven armies, namely the 9th, 10th, 39th, 40th, and 47th Concord Shandong Patrol Battalion and Zhili Patrol Battalion, with a total strength of more than 65,000 people, which stabilized the morale of the army and waited for Duan Qirui to arrive.

On the other hand, the Jiangbei army achieved a great victory, but because of the opponent's annihilation and lost the road, but when returning to the city, he saw the Qing soldiers killed on the side of the road, the morale of the Jiangbei army was high, and he captured a lot of prisoners along the road, and even four soldiers captured the miracle of more than 100 Qing soldiers, everyone was happy and returned to Xuzhou City.

Li Zuzhi had already prepared a supper for everyone, what ginger soup, white wine, steamed buns, garlic, noodles, and horse meat were enough, and all the war horses that died in this battle became stews in the kitchen.

According to preliminary statistics, the Jiangbei Army killed 816 people, wounded 449 people, killed 14,000 enemy troops, and captured 8,000 enemy troops, which can be described as a great victory for Xuzhou. Chen Jian's attack not only shattered the enemy's plan to encircle and suppress Xuzhou, but also caused the enemy to suffer heavy losses and had to retreat to Qianting.

The Jiangbei armies felt that the Beiyang Army was so vulnerable, and they were overjoyed, and suddenly learned an astonishing news at this time, Wang Zhanyuan led the third association of the second town of the Beiyang Army, Ni Sichong led the Henan 10th Road Patrol Battalion, and Tie Liang led the Zhili 10th Road Patrol Battalion to form the third route of the Qing army into northern Anhui into northern Anhui, and defeated the Bozhou defenders after three days of attack.

Then, the Qing army's third route occupied Wuyang County, Taihe County, Linquan County, Fuyang County, Mengcheng County, and approached Huaibei County. Under such economic conditions, Li Shirui led the supplementary regiment and the fifth division of the Jiangbei New Army to Xuzhou, and immediately ordered the second division and the fifth division to block the second road of the Beiyang Army, and asked Wang Yongan to order the third division and the fourth division to immediately go south to Suxian to snipe the third road of the Beiyang Army, and implored Wang Yongan to promote Chen Jian to the deputy marshal of the right road, and led the third division and the fourth division to fight Wang Zhanyuan.

In the base camp of the Jiangbei Army, Wang Yongan and Feng Heng stood in front of the map, nervously observing and acting, they gave up northern Anhui and fully supported the battle of Xuzhou, but they did not expect the enemy's advance to be so fast, and they all occupied the northern Anhui region in a few days.

"Now the situation is very clear." Feng Heng said, "The enemy attacked our northern region from north to south from Haizhou, Xuzhou, and Bozhou, and concentrated the main forces on the Tianjin-Pudong Railway. On the other hand, the main forces of the enemy army were the 3rd and 4th Divisions led by Feng Guozhang, and their main goal was definitely to occupy central Anhui and then attack Yangzhou from the west side of the north of the Yangtze River. After the two armies defeated our army respectively, they finally joined Yangzhou and wiped out the entire army of our Jiangbei Army. ”

Wang Yongan kept touching his beard and thinking about what to do, his beard has grown very fast these days, maybe because of hard work, maybe because he has no time to take care of it, and the whole person looks a lot older.

"Jingtang, do you still have faith?" Wang Yongan suddenly asked.

Feng Heng smiled and asked, "What?" Does Yun Shuai want to give up? ”

"Alas...... The lives of 30 million Jiangbei villagers are in my hands, I really can't bear to ......" Wang Yongan closed his eyes, a little tired, these days, he can't eat or sleep well, and he has never slept more than four hours a day.

Feng Heng reprimanded: "Yun Shuai, if you say that you are so frustrated, it will shake the morale of the army over there." ”

Wang Yongan let out a long sigh, then washed his face, lifted his morale, and then said: "It's my fault, Chief of Staff, I apologize to you." ”

Feng Heng said with satisfaction: "Okay, I accept your apology, if you and I are not strong in resisting, how can you ask the soldiers to fight against the Qing army?" How can you be worthy of the Jiangbei Army brothers who have been killed and injured these days? ”

"yes." Wang Yongan clenched his fists and strengthened his will and said: "If you regret it now, isn't it a suicide, the birthday star hanged himself for a long time, hahaha......"

Feng Heng also laughed.
