When Zhao Zhigang rushed to the county seat of Montenegro with the main force of the Third Division, more than 300 officers and troops of the Montenegrin garrison camp had already been barracks outside Kangjie Pass. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

All civil and military officials, including the county magistrate of Montenegro County, were also captured by the Seventh Regiment.

Of course, the Seventh Regiment did not forget to blockade the silver and grain depots of the county government in Montenegro County.

As a large grain-producing county, Montenegro has only tens of thousands of people and less than 200,000 acres of arable land.

The tax revenue for a year to the imperial court is not at all small.

The grain that had just been collected in the grain depot had not yet had time to be escorted to Shengjing, and 150,000 quintals of grain was absolutely indispensable.

In addition to this windfall, Kang Jie also found more than 15,000 taels of various taxes and silver that were about to be escorted to Shengjing in the silver treasury of Montenegro County, which can be described as a fruitful harvest.

Compared with the excitement brought to him by these seizures, division commander Zhao Zhigang is more looking forward to his harvest in Fuxin.

Compared with the small county of Montenegro, Fuxin is not only a large county, but also a very important transportation artery.

Because it is very far away from the Guannai, if nothing else, the population is more than two or three times that of Montenegro, more than 130,000 people.

In addition, Fuxin is also a large county in terms of production and coal production.

Not only does it have more than 300,000 acres of arable land, but it also has a fairly prosperous economy.

If the Liaodong Army can harvest so much grain and silver in Montenegro at one time, it will only harvest more in Fuxin than here.

Of course, as a transportation artery, the imperial court also attached great importance to the defense of Fuxin.

In addition to the garrison battalion that Fuxin already had, the imperial court also stationed a battalion of 1,000 new troops in Fuxin.

Therefore, as soon as Zhao Zhigang arrived in the county seat, he handed over several regiment commanders together to discuss how to fight Fuxin.

Kang Jie, who took Fuxin without hurting a single person, immediately proposed: "Division commander, although the combat effectiveness of the 1,000 new army is much stronger than that of the garrison battalion, they are officers and soldiers after all. As long as we put a dozen artillery pieces at the gates, I don't believe they will hold out and not surrender. ”

Zhao Zhigang shook his head and replied: "This method is used on other officers and soldiers, and it must have an effect." But on the Fuxin garrison, it's definitely useless......"

"I have a copy of the information from the Intelligence Bureau here. The commander of the imperial court's garrison in Fuxin is a banner man, and he is also a banner man who is loyal to the imperial court. The 1,000 garrisons under him were all formed and trained by him, and their combat effectiveness was not bad. Unless there is a court order. Otherwise, the person will never surrender. ”

"Therefore, if you want to win Fuxin, a tough battle is absolutely indispensable."

"Attack from inside and outside," proposed the commander ......of the Eighth Regiment, who had just returned from the officer academy.

"To be specific......" Zhao Zhigang's eyes lit up and he asked.

"Each regiment of our division has a reconnaissance platoon, and each battalion has a reconnaissance squad. All of them add up to nearly two hundred. If they are allowed to enter Fuxin County first, they will lurk. After the main force of the division began to attack, it attacked inside and outside, and won the Fuxin ...... in one fell swoop."

Zhao Zhigang nodded and replied: "With the strength of our three divisions, even if we attack strongly, we can quickly take Fuxin, the only thing we need to worry about is the casualties of the troops." This method of yours can indeed minimize our casualties and losses......"

"Very good, this and the plan will be decided first, do you have any other ideas?"

Kang Jie thought for a while and replied, "Divisional commander." Captain Li's internal and external attacks also reminded me of a small plan. “

"You just said that the commander of the Fuxin garrison is an officer who is loyal to the imperial court, so we will behead him and take him down first. If you can take it, you will take it, and if you can't take it, you will kill it. I believe that without this person, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the Fuxin garrison is, it will be a plate of scattered sand. Coupled with our internal and external attacks, it may not be too long before the garrison collapses on the battlefield......"

Zhao Zhigang thought for a while and replied: "Then it's decided, the internal and external pinching and decapitation will be carried out together......"

"The scouts of the three regiments were all concentrated. In addition, the reconnaissance company of the division headquarters all listened to the orders of Company Commander Zhou and entered the county seat one step ahead of schedule. ”

"The main force of the division then came very close, after the battle began. Snipe the commander of the defenders as soon as possible, and together with the main force of the division, launch an attack on the defenders at the head of the city and defeat them......"

"The reconnaissance troops all changed into ordinary people's clothes, were armed with short guns, and set off an hour later. The main force of the division set off two hours later. I personally conducted the command ......"

The third division of nearly 10,000 soldiers, mighty pounced on Fuxinshi.

Jie Ting, who was far away in the Shengjing General's Mansion, had already received an invitation letter from Yang Xingguo from the Yamen of the Xinmin Prefect's Mansion.

After reading the letter, Jetting was angry or angry. The whole person was like an angry lion, scolding loudly in the lobby of the General's Mansion.

"How can this be reasonable, this Yang Xingguo is simply unreasonable...... The commander of the Liaodong Army, who was not recognized by the imperial court, dared to threaten me, a high-ranking minister of the imperial court, and he simply did not take his own official and the imperial court seriously......"

The master was humiliated, and the staff who followed Jetting on the side shared the honor and disgrace, and his face was also very embarrassed.

Without thinking about it, he reminded Jetting: "My lord, this Yang Xingguo is really too arrogant. Also, they openly attacked and occupied Xinmin, which is no different from rebellion. Even if the Xinmin garrison did something wrong, it shouldn't be dealt with by the imperial court, and it wasn't his turn to lead the troops to Xinmin ......"

"The minion's idea was to report the matter to the court immediately. At the same time, send a new army to recapture Xinmin from the Liaodong Army and teach the Liaodong Army a lesson......"

"Now that the main force of the Liaodong Army is being dragged in Liaozhong by the armies of the two major powers of Japan and Russia, it is impossible to draw too many troops to occupy the Xinmin ......"

"Our new army has more than 6,000 people, and it is also equipped with artillery, and we will definitely be able to recapture Xinmin from the Liaodong army."

Jetting, who had never been threatened, was subconsciously moved.

Just when Jetting looked hesitant and didn't know how to decide, another staff member hurriedly advised: "Please calm your anger...... We can report to the imperial court, but we must not send troops to attack the Liaodong army......"

"Your Excellency, don't forget, although the imperial court did not really recognize the existence of the Liaodong Army, it had a tacit attitude towards the Liaodong Army occupying Liaozhong and fighting the Japanese and Russians."

"Because, the existence of the Liaodong Army has solved a lot of troubles for the imperial court. Especially those courtiers and people who scolded the court for ignoring the lives of the people in the Northeast, and even losing power and humiliating the country, and giving up the Northeast, stopped criticizing the court at this time. “

"You know, all of this is the credit of the Liaodong Army......"

"If you send troops to attack the Liaodong Army, not to mention what the imperial court will think of you, your lordship, the scolding and saliva of those officials of the main battle faction in the imperial court can drown your lordship......"

"Therefore, the minions ask the adults to calm their anger, and they can't send troops to the new people no matter what......"

"Also, the Liaodong Army was able to occupy Xinmin quietly, so that the Xinmin garrison didn't even have a chance to ask for help, which is enough to prove that the Liaodong Army's army to capture Xinmin is very strong......"

"In addition, this time, it is indeed our people who are at fault first, in order to avoid the situation from further escalating and affecting your reputation and future in the imperial court. The slave thinks that you are still wronged to go to Xinmin ...... my lord."

In addition, today's Liaodong Army has grown into tens of thousands of troops, and it is fighting on behalf of the imperial court against the two major powers of Japan and Russia. It is reasonable to be reasonable, adults, you should meet this Yang Xingguo. (To be continued.) )
