The two divisions of the 51st Army were completely defeated, and Zhang Xinghan and Sabuli led their troops to easily capture the city of Beiping. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the chaos, Du Jiwu and others escorted Yu Xuezhong, who was seriously injured, and also withdrew from Beiping City with the retreating army.

In Zhang Xueliang's young marshal's mansion, Zhang Xinghan strode into the mansion with the Longquan sword on his shoulder, surrounded by a team of guards.

Coming to the war room, the whole war room was in disarray, and there were some useless documents and battle maps and other things that the defenders did not have time to take with them when they retreated.

At this time, Sabuli also arrived here and walked in quickly.

&{Pig} Pig Island {Small} Say 3w.; Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Zhang Xinghan turned around, and when he saw that it was Sabuli, he couldn't help but smile and praise: "Lao Sa, this battle is good, you can win Beiping so smoothly, you are the first to work." ”

Sabuli hurriedly smiled humbly: "The commander has won the award, and it is all because the commander you have attracted the attention of the enemy army, and you can only succeed in your humble position." ”

At this time, Sabuli and they didn't know that their artillery bombardment hit Yu Xuezhong by luck, which caused the defenders to collapse, so that they could break through the city defense of the Northeast Army so easily and attack the city.

"By the way, Lao Sa, you can't stop yet, I will give you the tank regiment and the cavalry brigade, you immediately take them out of the city to pursue the enemy, remember that as long as you surrender with your guns, you will not be killed, your task is to pursue and advance along the highway to Langfang, and finally block the southward escape of the enemy army in Tianjin.

I want to eat the main force of the Northeast Army in Shanhaiguan and Tianjin, Miyun in one go, they have more than 100,000 people, even if Lao Tzu annihilates half of them, he can get 50,000 fresh troops! Zhang Xinghan said to Sabuli.

Sabuli happily stepped forward and responded: "Please rest assured, the humble seat will go immediately." "Commanding cavalry is his old profession, and his cavalry command ability is even higher than Zhang Xinghan.

After Sabuli was ordered to leave, Zhang Xinghan instructed the signal soldiers: "Immediately inform Huang Xiansheng and Liu Jianguo of the news that Beiping City has been captured by our army, and order them to immediately storm Shanhaiguan overnight.

In addition, Ge Quanwu will be given electricity. I must be given the main force of the 53rd Army to restrain Wan Fulin, and I must not let them escape.

Finally, send a telegram to the chief of staff to report the good news, and at the same time ask him to arrange an airborne brigade to land in Jinghai County early tomorrow morning to cut off the way for the defenders of Tianjin to flee south. ”

"Yes!" After the communication soldier wrote them down one by one, he responded with a bang, turned around and led the order to leave.

The first to get the news of the loss of Beiping was Wan Fulin's headquarters stationed in Miyun and Huairou.

Because he was the closest to Beiping, and before the fall of Beiping, Yu Xuezhong and He Zhuguo had sent him a telegram to inform him of the news of the appearance of a small group of troops of the Northeast Frontier Army in the suburbs of Beiping.

Miyun County. Wan Fulin was furious: "Damn it, Yu Xuezhong and He Zhuguo, the two wastes, the two divisions can't hold a Beiping City, and they can't even hold on for a fucking night, it's really a waste." ”

There was no negligence in their own defense line, which led to the consciousness of the Northeast Frontier Army secretly infiltrating the past.

After he finished scolding, Yang Zhengzheng, the commander of the 108th Division beside him, said cautiously: "Military seat, now that Beiping has been lost, Shanhaiguan and even Tianjin and other regions will definitely be in danger." We can't stay here any longer, otherwise once the main force of the Northeast Frontier Army of Shanhaiguan breaks through Shanhaiguan, we won't be able to run away if we want to. ”

Wan Fulin suddenly came back to his senses, and said with an anxious face: "Then you can tell me." What shall we do? Where can you retreat? ”

"Now the plan, we can only retreat to the west, no matter what, evacuate Miyun and Huairou first." Yang Zhengdao.

"However, the Northeast Border Guards in front of us. They may have gotten the news, if we take the initiative to evacuate the city defense, wouldn't it be exactly what they wanted? Wan Fulin said with some concern. Apparently he had a clear idea of the field capabilities of the Northeast Frontier Army.

Yang Zhengzheng explained: "Junzao, haven't you found out? This northeastern border army attacking us, they did not have tanks. ”

"No tanks?" Wan Fulin couldn't believe it, the Northeast Border Guards would be without tanks?

Yang Zhengzheng nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, there are indeed no tanks, this point has been observed since yesterday's attack, and they have never used tanks from beginning to end."

If they have tanks, there's no reason not to use them, don't you say? ”

Wan Fulin nodded undeniably.

Yang Zhengzheng immediately struck while the iron was hot and persuaded: "Moreover, military seat, the sky has not yet completely brightened, and we can evacuate at this time just under the cover of night, and we can also avoid being attacked by the air force of the Northeast Frontier Army, it is the best time to retreat, military seat, you can quickly give an order, and if it is delayed, tens of thousands of brothers in our entire 53rd Army may have to explain here." ”

Wan Fulin was moved by Yang Zhengzheng's persuasion, and immediately slapped the table and said: "Send a telegram to the divisions, the whole army will retreat westward, and we will gather in the area of Wei County and Guangling County." ”

"Yes!" Yang Zhengzheng hurriedly bowed his head in response, turned around and left.

Wan Fulin was quite kind, and before the troops were about to leave, he asked the signal corps to send a telegram to the 57th Army and Liu Duoquan's independent 105th Division in Shanhaiguan, informing them of the loss of Beiping.

Shanhaiguan, the military headquarters of the 57th Army.

The Taodong Domain was angry at the fiasco of the night attack organized by himself, and it turned out that Niu Erzhu and others had already made full preparations in accordance with Zhang Xinghan's instructions, and the Northeast Army was to take advantage of the night to counterattack and raid.

As a result, all the 2,000 night attack troops carefully selected by the Taodong Domain crashed into the iron plate, losing more than half of them and returning with a crushing defeat, plus the battle losses in the afternoon.

In less than ten hours, the Taodong Domain had lost nearly two regiments of troops, how could he not be annoyed? How not to get angry?

Liu Duoquan, Zhang Tingshu and others persuaded and comforted, and at the same time also had a deeper understanding of the strength of the Northeast Frontier Army.

Just when Taodong Domain's mood was a little more stable and his anger stopped for a while, a communication soldier ran in almost crying.

Saluted Liu Duoquan, Zhang Tingshu and others: "Sir! Oh no, the city of Beiping has fallen! ”

"What?" Liu Duoquan and the others were shocked when they heard this.

Tao Dongfan, who had just calmed down, walked over and grabbed the placket of the communication soldier and asked, "Where did you get the news, how could Beiping City be lost?" ”

The communication soldier was a little inarticulate, and said tremblingly: "Returning to the sir, this, this telegram, the telegram was sent by the 52nd Army, and they said in the telegram that Beiping City has been captured by the enemy, and they have begun to evacuate, so let us also make plans as soon as possible." ”

"What? 53rd Army? Tao Dongfan was shocked, and turned his gaze to Liu Duoquan and Zhang Tingshu.

"This matter is simple, send a telegram to Beiping to ask, and you will know the truth." Liu Duoquan held on to keep his composure, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, which showed how shocked he was in his heart.

Before the signal soldier left, another signal soldier rushed in.

With a sad face, he saluted everyone and reported: "Ladies and gentlemen, He Junzuo is calling. ”

"How?" Zhang Tingshu hurriedly asked.

The signal soldier said with tears in his eyes: "The military seat said in the telegram that Beiping has been lost, and the commander-in-chief Yu was unfortunately killed, and he asked us to evacuate Shanhaiguan as soon as possible to avoid being surrounded by the Northeast Frontier Army." ”

As soon as the communication soldier said this, everyone was instantly stunned, and their faces were like ashes.

Beiping was lost? What's even more surprising is that Commander-in-Chief Yu Xuezhong was killed?

This news is very suitable for them to describe as a thunderbolt on a sunny day, as the rear of Beiping City has been lost, then their insistence on Shanhaiguan is meaningless.

In addition to the shock, Liu Duoquan, Zhang Tingshu and others no longer cared about how Beiping City was lost.

After being silent for a long time, their professional military qualities made them calm again, Liu Duoquan said: "Everyone, the situation is critical, we can't stay here anymore, we must retreat south immediately." ”

Zhang Tingshu nodded, but asked again: "It is necessary to retreat south, but where do we retreat?" Is it to Tianjin? Or take Miyun to join the 53rd Army? ”

Liu Duoquan said: "Since Wan Fulin sent us a message, it means that he learned the news before us, and with his temperament, he will never take the risk of waiting for us in Miyun and Huairou, and he will definitely take the lead in running first."

Therefore, it is not feasible for us to go to Miyun at all, the road is long and dangerous, once the Northeast Frontier Army breaks through the Shanhai Pass and pursues from behind, and with the withdrawal of the 53rd Army, its troops in the direction of Rehe can be stationed in Miyun and Huairou to cut off our way forward.

At that time, our army could not advance or retreat, and only one of them was completely annihilated. ”

"So what do we do?" Tao Dongfan was already in a state of confusion, and the panicked look only showed on his face, and he asked eagerly.

"Go to Tangshan and retreat to Tianjin!" Liu Duoquan pondered for a moment and said.

"To Tianjin?" Zhang Tingshu and Taodong Fan were both shocked and said, "Is it okay to go to Tianjin?" ”

"I don't know what the specific situation of Beiping City is now, but now Tianjin is still in the hands of our army, retreating from Tianjin, what we are betting on is that the Northeast Army that captured Beiping is not strong enough, not enough to attack Tianjin, and it is not enough to intercept our 60,000 troops from retreating south.

As long as we pass Tianjin, we can evacuate to Cangzhou, and we will be safe at that time. Liu Duoquan explained.

Zhang Tingshu, Tao Dongfan and others nodded, indicating that they agreed with Liu Duoquan's suggestion.

As soon as the decision was made, everyone issued orders to all divisions to secretly prepare to evacuate Shanhaiguan without mentioning it.

At the same time, outside the Shanhaiguan Customs, inside the temporary headquarters of the 200th Division.

Huang Xiansheng woke up Liu Jianguo, Xing Zhanqing and others together, and said to everyone excitedly: "Everyone, let me tell you a great news, Beiping City has been captured by our headquarters!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Jianguo and the others were taken aback when they heard this, and they suddenly felt sleepy.

"Is this true?"

"yes, is it true?" Everyone asked eagerly.

"Of course it's true, this is an urgent telegram just sent by the head office, he ordered us to immediately launch a fierce attack on Shanhaiguan to prevent the enemy troops in the pass from taking the opportunity to escape!" Huang Xiansheng nodded with a telegram. (To be continued......)
