The moon hangs in the deep blue night sky, scattering a silvery glow over the earth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The weather is fine and there is a cool breeze.

It was supposed to be the dead of night, but the lights were shining through the windows of the bamboo building, and the figures were constantly shaking, and a military meeting was being held.

"The first goal of the attack is to defend the city, and the action must be fast and fierce, no matter how the situation changes, the defense must be taken and the port must be controlled."

"If reinforcements and a large number of supplies are to be successfully landed, we must hold the fortified city for at least two days and two nights. Although the mobilization of the Qing army may not be too fast, it should not be taken lightly, and it is necessary to be prepared to pay any price and be prepared to stick to the end. ”

"We will leave tomorrow at four o'clock in the morning, and we are expected to arrive at the border of Vietnam and Guizhou at noon, and secretly lurk. Cross the border after dark, and be sure to reach the defense city before dawn to start the siege battle. ”

"The siege operation is arranged as follows: the first company to attack the west gate, the second company to attack the south gate, the third company to attack the north gate, and the fourth company to attack the east gate. The five links around the southern city to control the port, especially the large and small ships, must be as well protected as possible. ”

……………

The mission was not set up until the night of the immediate operation, and the strictest precautions were carried out around the camp for the sake of absolute secrecy. The Vietnamese transport team mobilized through the Huang Hua Tan did not know where it was going at all, and it would not set off until half a day after the troops were deployed.

Qiu J's pen and notebook recorded that as the commander of the fourth company, her boldness and toughness have won the respect and support of the soldiers in the past few months. Right now. The action was about to take place, and she couldn't contain her excitement.

Five companies, plus government and logistics personnel. It can be said that all of them are dispatched. According to the intelligence, the Qing army defending the city was only a patrol battalion, and the defense of villages and towns along the way was even more useless, and the revolutionary army could be regarded as a fierce lion fighting a rabbit, occupying an overwhelming advantage.

The closest is Qinzhou, where there are two patrol battalions of Qing troops, but this is nothing. The revolutionary army still has an advantage in terms of troops, equipment, and morale. You must know that the Qinlian Fangcheng Uprising launched by the League in history. At first, there were only more than 200 people, then it grew to more than 500, and then to more than 3,000, but it was a lot of people. The combat effectiveness has not improved much. He was finally defeated by the Qing army.

"As long as we capture the fortified city and smoothly receive reinforcements and materials, our army's momentum will soar, and the banner of revolution will be able to stand and not fall, until the revolution is successful, and our army can rank first in the revolution!"

Mobilization is inspiring, and the road to revolution is long, and this is something that everyone knows. But now the revolutionary army. Even a small soldier can be called a father after the success of the revolution, right? And this is the title of the first army of the revolution. It's not too much. Even if it is from a less pure thought, this promotion is relatively easy, right?

"The new base was relocated in the Yanzi Mountain, which crosses the border, that is to say, the future revolution will concentrate on the development of Guizhou and Yunnan provinces, and we will support it alone for a long time. This is the strategy of the headquarters, and we must pay attention to saving ammunition from now on, although the materials transported by the headquarters are huge, it will take at least half a year to accumulate and reserve materials for further support. ”

"The replenishment of personnel will continue, but the focus will also shift to recruiting on the ground. Although Guangxi wolf soldiers have been famous since ancient times, although they should invest more in education and training, the policy of mainly recruiting children from good families and poor families cannot be changed. The old-style army and the armed forces of the party must be reformed, reorganized, disbanded, and re-educated before they can become members of the revolutionary army. ”

"In the future, there will also be a relatively big change in the mode of warfare, and it is necessary not only to strike at and destroy the enemy, but also to pay special attention to the preservation of strength and the capture of materials, so as to facilitate long-term persistence. Therefore, we will focus on attack warfare and ambush warfare, and we will never fight uncertain battles, and we will win battles. The specific method, after the capture of the fortified city, will be conveyed and instructed by the leaders sent by the headquarters. ”

Obviously, these are superficial communications, so that everyone can be mentally prepared and think about it, so that it can be easily accepted when it is formally communicated, and relevant questions can be raised for answers.

Although it is most in line with her mind to lead the men and horses to attack and plunder and fight happily, the consideration of the headquarters is more calm and rational, and it is more focused on the overall situation of the revolution. Otherwise, not to mention the current thousand and eight people, it is several times more, even if it can run rampant for a while, there will always be a time when it will be consumed. In order to fight a war, to be able to develop and grow, and to persist for a long time, we have to change our combat strategy.

I don't know who the leader sent by the headquarters is? Mr. Song seems to be in Europe, and the only two core leaders who are close to each other seem to be Chen Sheng and Wu Qi, and the Wanning Uprising seems to show that Wu Qi is better at military affairs, and the textbook used in his study at the military academy is Wu Qi's synthesis of the infantry drills of various countries. But Chen Sheng seems to be more mysterious and comprehensive, and the assassination that shocked the world is more in line with the chivalrous way she advocated before.

"If you have any questions, ask them now. If not, they will go back to prepare. ”

Qiu Ji raised his head and turned his thoughts back. No matter who it is, it is always the one you should obey and admire. It is absolutely impossible to carry out revolutionary work to such an extent without extraordinary talent and without unimaginable effort.

And the revolution is obviously not as simple and easy as she imagined a year or two ago. For the sake of the victory of the revolution, she was willing to abandon some radical personalities and become more mature and rational. What is this personal sacrifice compared to the great cause of the revolution?

……………

In the early morning, he stretched out his hands and quickly opened the blue sky, and the golden light shone on the ebding tide wave peaks, and the clear scenery on the island became farther and farther away, more and more blurred. The majestic and tranquil, boundless blue sea has gradually become the only harvest in the eyes.

Breathing in the fresh, refreshing sea breeze, there seemed to be the sweet smell of Caifeng's body between his lips and teeth, but as the voyage continued, Chen Wenqiang's thoughts focused on the battle that was about to begin.

The sudden armed uprising was even more violent and unexpected than Wanning. Victory was to be expected, and how to maximize the results of the battle lay a solid foundation for the revolutionary army to establish a base in the Guizhou-Yunnan-Vietnam region and hold it for a long time. is what should be seriously considered.

The combat effectiveness of the patrol battalion is low, and the morale of the army is weak, while the Guangxi New Army has not yet been formed. The revolt was well timed. It should not be a problem to attack and defend the city, but what about the future development, is it to take advantage of the situation to continue to attack the city and seize the land, or to temporarily retreat into the border after receiving a large number of supplies, operate a new base first, and then wait for the opportunity to move?

In this regard, Wu Luz and the General Staff Department discussed it repeatedly. Two sets of plans were set up to adapt to the situation. From Chen Wenqiang's psychology, he hopes to strike while the iron is hot. Make a lot of noise, and then temporarily retreat or move elsewhere depending on the situation.

Fangcheng, Qinzhou, Lianzhou...... If the action is fast and fierce enough, it is very likely to be taken before the Qing army mobilizes troops to attack on a large scale. It's not just political influence. It was also possible to seize a large amount of money and food. Lay a good material foundation for the revolutionary army to persist in its long-term efforts and recruit troops. After all, we cannot expect every soldier who joins the revolutionary army to be a man of lofty ideals who values wealth and righteousness and sheds his blood for the revolution.

Of course, recruiting is not the same as winning over the "revolutionary" party and miscellaneous armed forces who give money and guns to do the "revolution". Even if you don't know exactly what a revolution is, even if your thinking is not progressive, even if you join the army to change your life, to support your family, to be free from exploitation and oppression, you can still be a good fighter.

To put it in layman's terms, a simple farmer who is dissatisfied with the status quo but can abide by discipline and obey orders. It will be a qualified soldier for the massive expansion of the revolutionary army in the future. Isn't revolution about changing the status quo of injustice, poverty, and cruelty, with simple requirements? In the future, the improvement of the ideological realm can also be expected.

Chen Wenqiang's ideas and practices are now gradually becoming a reality. You can't expect all the revolutionaries to be progressive and staunch, but you can let the soldiers of the revolutionary army know the benefits of the revolution and support and embrace it. The ascension of the state of mind may be slow, but material changes can be achieved quickly.

There is no need to fight local tyrants and divide the land, and the inferior gentry and bullies naturally do not have to be polite. The simple thing is that as long as the excesses and miscellaneous taxes are exempted and the corrupt government is destroyed, the common people will naturally feel it, be touched, and even fight hard to continue to maintain such relaxation.

"Sir-" A telegraph operator ran out of the cabin and handed Chen Wenqiang a telegram from a cargo ship transporting ore docked at Fangcheng Port, reporting the situation.

No anomalies, good. Chen Wenqiang nodded, and ordered the operator to continue his work and receive a routine telegram every two hours.

When it comes to the use and grasp of new technology, Chen Wenqiang is far ahead of his contemporaries. Although the Beiyang Army also had wireless telegraphy, it was lackluster in its use. Chen Wenqiang not only wanted to establish immediate contact with the revolutionary army, but also wanted to establish an intelligence network that relied on wireless telegraphy. Although wireless telegraphy equipment at that time was relatively cumbersome and difficult to carry, it was not an insurmountable difficulty.

And when it comes to intelligence and covert work, the Revival Society is far ahead of all forces. This is thanks to the materials and teaching materials of the relevant agents compiled by Chen Wenqiang, which at that time were definitely advanced knowledge. Based in Tokyo and Shanghai, the trained members of the Revival Society are scattered all over China, from dots and lines, through various ciphers, to the branches, and then to Shanghai, and then to organize and summarize and report to leaders at all levels.

Among them, relying on Chen Wenqiang's industrial expansion, a large number of Fuxing members were instructed to join it. Although none of these people knew that their boss was the big boss of the Renaissance Society, Chen Wenqiang was able to use the Renaissance Association to firmly control these industries. For example, the railway patrol police and the merchant group, among which there are many members of the Renaissance Society, Chen Wenqiang even remembers their names and contact numbers, and quietly promotes them to control the armed forces that can exist openly with more certainty.

Thoughts were flying, Chen Wenqiang looked at the sea on the deck, and suddenly felt that the sea and sky were vast, and his mind was open.

The sea is calm, tranquil and makes people feel lazy. It was like a horse that was one with the sky, but darker, brighter, and purer than the blue of the sky. Vaguely like seeing the swing of silk, seeing the curves that appear and disappear on the straight horizontal line, and seeing the snow-white waves that are short-lived.

There is strength in calm, and the sea is unpredictable, just like the development of the situation. Although Chen Wenqiang expected the time of the great outbreak of the revolution, how could this be measured? Just like the Wuchang Uprising in history, it was more like an unexpected military rebellion, but it was an event that was not well planned and could even be called hasty, but it was unexpectedly victorious.

"An explosion in the depths." Chen Wenqiang stretched out his arms vigorously, and his spirits were invigorated.

……………

The sky glowed with cinnabar-colored bands of light, and soon the bands of light turned cherry red and rose red.

The silence of dawn was broken by sporadic gunfire, and the Qing army defending the city spotted the revolutionary army that was rushing in. The gunfire intensified, and the two sides began to fire fiercely above and below the city. In a short time, Simon suddenly broke out with a deafening loud bang, the earth trembled violently in the explosion, and the sky was blinding blood red!

The vision was blurred, and the smoke and dust from the explosion blocked the city gates, and the chaos seemed to be completely muffled, even the sound of gunfire seemed to be completely muffled. The loud trumpets pierced the eardrums, and the revolutionary soldiers launched a charge with shouts.

The unprecedented explosion instantly frightened the Qing troops near the city gate and lost the ability to fight back. Some of the enemies close to the bombing point were sluggish and sluggish, and some lost their hearing in the loud noise; Some were injured in their internal organs, and their hands and feet were weak, and they couldn't even pick up their guns; Some of the enemies were unable to get up and were killed on the spot.

The shaking earth calmed down, and the smoke gradually cleared in a cloud of cries and screams. People can see that the revolutionary army has rushed to the bombed city gate, rushed into the city, the gunfire rang out like beans, the battle began in the city, and there was no suspense of victory.

Compared with the previous uprisings of the Confederacy, which was outnumbered and outnumbered, but severely lacked weapons and trained personnel, the Baath Revolutionary Army was armed to the teeth. Not only are they fully equipped with weapons and ammunition, but the soldiers have all undergone military training, and there are even quite a few veterans of the Wanning Uprising. Coupled with the relatively formal training of officers, the bones of the revolutionary army are hard and the style of work is fierce.

Although there are still many deficiencies, this will be a strong army that has grown up in the flames of war, and it will be a strong army with ideals and beliefs.

The city was breached, and the psychological defense line of the Qing army immediately collapsed, and the revolutionary army advanced rapidly in the city, and there was basically no strong resistance. Liu Huiting, the left post of the patrol battalion, led his troops to surrender, Li Yaotang, the right outpost, led his troops to surrender, the commander of the middle post was killed, and his subordinates abandoned their weapons and surrendered; Song Dingyuan, the county magistrate, and more than a dozen of his staff and dependents were arrested...... Flags were erected at the head of the fortified city, and hunting and fluttering.
