Chapter 35: Students
In 1912, Wu Junsheng, a general of the Feng department, skillfully smashed the so-called "Manchu ** Li" planned by Japan, and dealt a blow to Japan's conspiracy to split China.
In Tibet, with the covert support of the British Empire, a group of reactionary armed forces raised their banners to rebel, and the Sichuan army once again entered Tibet to quell the rebellion.
However, in the distant Western powers, the power of the navy, especially the power of giant battleships, began to take shape, and the myth of large ships and cannons began to take shape, and the naval arms race began to take shape.
The test without a conscience cannon was successful, and even the pessimistic and passive Liu Rongguang couldn't help but feel hope. Now, Yang Shuai is analyzing the battle of Guzhen at the "headquarters".
Don't rush the blockade line, go straight to break through the solid town. This strategic line has been emphasized by Yang Shuai again and again, only to see Yang Shuai say, "Li Qiguang must not have imagined that we would not run the blockade line, but rush to the fortified town." I just want to catch him off guard, Commander Huang, the confusion of the blockade line can't stop. 'Confusion is to make Huang Yiou keep running in the direction of the blockade line, busy, and make an illusion of breaking through the blockade line.
Huang Yiou immediately stood upright, "Yes, division commander, rest assured, I and Commander Liu have taken turns to swap, and now all the baggage has been transported to five hundred meters in front of Guzhen, on the side of the blockade line, only people are running, as long as the attack order is given, they can immediately turn around lightly and participate in the attack on Guzhen." β
Yang Shuai nodded and turned his head, "Zhang Dabiao." β
This big man, who was promoted as fast as the rising tide, suddenly shouted, "It's here." β
"What about the artillery, how much can the cannon be made without conscience, and what about time?"
"Report to the division commander, because of the lack of materials, Company Commander Sun Wei can only make more than 20 unconscionable cannons, and there is a serious shortage of explosives, each cannon only has two bundles of explosives at most. Now that it's all done, it's just waiting to be attacked. β
Zhang Dabiao replied with a tiger voice, and glanced at Yang Shuai after the most reluctance.
Yang Shuai saw Zhang Dabiao's flickering eyes, and shouted, "Zhang Dabiao, if there is any problem, just say it, don't think that Lao Tzu can't see it." β
Zhang Dabiao scratched his head, looking naΓ―ve, and quite cute.
"Division commander, the conscienceless cannon has been made, and the power is not small. But Sun Wei said that the range was a bit close. If you attack Guzhen, I'm afraid it's hard to get close at a distance of 100 meters, division commander. β
Now the firing range of guns is definitely far more than 100 meters, and what Zhang Dabiao said is not necessarily unreasonable. But as soon as Zhang Dabiao said it, Yang Shuai shouted in his heart, alas, this is a person who has not studied in a military school after all. Sun Wei has the foundation of artillery, but he doesn't know what a deep trench is. At the end of the day, it's still not systematic enough, and it lacks the flexibility of civil engineering operations.
Yang Shuai deliberately didn't say anything, and turned his head to look at Liu Rongguang and Huang Yiou, but Yang Shuai was a little disappointed. Both of them shook their heads, or looked pensive.
Yang Shuai sighed in his heart and said the method of digging the soil, Yang Shuai remembered that in his previous life, there was a person named Li Yunlong who used this trick, but that person threw grenades, but Yang Shuai wanted to **.
Putting aside the Chinese's superstition about Japan at this stage, in fact, the Royal German Military Academy from which Yang Shuai graduated is definitely one of the best military schools in the world. Moreover, Germany did not list China as a potential enemy, so in the process of teaching, it did not hide it privately.
Yang Shuai, what he learned is actually the same as what the German officers learned.
Li Qiguang, in fact, thinks the same as Yang Shuai. Xindao, I just don't go out, I just don't take the initiative to go out, see if you Yang Shuai is in a hurry, or I am in a hurry.
After sending 1,000 people to set up a blockade line on the east side, Li Qiguang had the intention of sitting on a high platform and waiting for Yang Shuai to come.
Last night, Li Qiguang attacked Guzhen and killed the opponent by surprise, and the 5,000 men and horses lost less than 500 people, so they drove away nearly 3,000 Anhui troops defending the city, making Li Qiguang wander.
As soon as the sky dawned, the news of Tang Zhou's killing came, and Li Qiguang was stunned. There was a hint of secret joy in my heart, and a powerful political enemy had just gone. There is a trace of sadness, yesterday's colleagues were separated overnight, and Li Qiguang was also a little sad.
But in my heart, I was more curious about Yang Shuai, who used troops like this, and Guzhen did not come to save the danger, and counterattacked Tang Zhou. Is this person a soldier who is a dangerous move, or does he have a strategy and use soldiers like a god? He was caught off guard by Guzhen, and in a blink of an eye, Yang Shuai caught himself off guard.
It's a little interesting, Li Qiguang thought so loftly.
At this moment, an officer rushed in and glanced at Li Qiguang.
"Li Shuai, the scout has returned, a group of people have come from the south."
"Bang", Li Qiguang stood up in a panic, "Where?" The Anhui army is coming, how many are coming? Who leads the troops? β
What Li Qiguang is most afraid of now is not Yang Shuai, in his eyes, Yang Shuai has become a dead fish. The only thing Li Qiguang cared about was the counterattack of the Anhui army. Taking Guzhen is a great achievement, but if you can't defend the reinforcements in Suzhou, I'm afraid that the credit will fly again.
So when Li Qiguang heard that someone from the south was coming, he was shocked.
When the informant saw that Li Qiguang was so excited, his face became even more difficult to look at, and he was hesitant.
Li Qiguang was already in a hurry, but he was suddenly furious, and threw the cup on the table out of the room: "You said it." He roared angrily.
The report was shocked and hurried: "Report, it is not the Anhui army that came, but a group of students and business groups, among which there are also guns, under the slogan of rescuing the revolution and crusading against us." β
"Oh, it's not coming-" Li Qiguang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said casually. Then he was suddenly stunned: "Student army? Merchant groups? β
Li Qiguang's anger at this time was even greater than just now. His hands kept rubbing together and gritted his teeth: "Good, good, good, crusade against us, it's good." How many people are there? β
"About four hundred, and there are still people joining, and now they have just left Bengbu."
Li Qiguang is really angry, can anyone come and bully Lao Tzu, ah? A group of students who don't understand Mao also dare to crusade, crusade ah, this is.
There are also merchant groups, the so-called merchant groups, which are the protection power of merchants.
In a word, they are all non-governmental organizations that cannot be put on the stage, and the non-governmental forces are strong.
The Anhui army didn't, you are here.
Suddenly, Li Qiguang had a look like a hero. In Li Qiguang's opinion at this time, it seems that these student troops are much more heroic than the Anhui army that does not dare to come out, although they do not measure their own strength.
"Well, they're all students. Forget it, no matter what they are, as long as they don't rush to our positions and ignore them, if they come in, then we won't be blamed. β
Li Qiguang suddenly felt a burst of compassion.
At this time, in the north of Bengbu City, a group of noisy student teams, sandwiched by more than a dozen rough men, should be the so-called merchant group people. I saw that there were several female students with ponytails among the students, shouting with pink fists in a look of righteous indignation.
"Bai Wenwei is not going to fight the pigtail army, we will go, if we don't rescue the Anhui army, we will go. Ladies and gentlemen, even if we die, we will also die vigorously, and we will never retreat as General Yang said in his telegram. β
A group of students suddenly shouted, "Never retreat." β
At this time, a voice shouted: "Wait a minute, wait a meeting, the principal of Baoding Military Academy, Mr. Jiang Baili is here, Mr. Jiang is a military talent, let him lead us." β
It turned out that most of this group of students were about to go north to study. At this time, when the Republic of China was established, Peking University built a new school, Yan Fu became the president, and the enrollment was widely opened, and these were all students who were about to enroll.
They gathered in Nanjing, because of the war in northern Anhui, the railway line was cut off, and they couldn't go up for a while. At this time, Yang Shuai sent a telegram, but it caused a sensation in this group of small angry youths. As soon as everyone said hello, they actually rushed to Anhui to enlist in the army, but they really didn't expect that so many students could gather in one day, and I don't know what the reason is.
Jiang Baili also came to Bengbu in a hurry, and when he heard it, there was actually a group of student soldiers who were going to go to the battlefield. Jiang Baili was excited and moved, but also a little sad, it should be them soldiers who did this.
Jiang Baili rushed out of Bengbu City non-stop, and finally caught up.
"Studentsβ"
Jiang Baili burst out with tears.
Looking at the enthusiastic students and the excited teenagers, Jiang Baili's eyes were blurred, and there was hope for China. If you don't rely on anything else, just rely on these, and in front of you, thousands of young people like them.
China will not die, and the new China will definitely come.
