Chapter 329: Liangguang Army Division
The destruction of more than 30,000 German troops has caused a shock to the powers of all countries around the world, especially the Chinese powers, you must know that the total number of troops of the Eight-Nation Alliance who really participated in the battle of Tianjin and Yanjing is only about 20,000, and the number of dead and wounded of the great powers is not more than 1,000, and now the German army is coming violently, originally thought that it was going to create a huge bloody storm in the Zhili area, but I didn't expect that in just two days, more than 30,000 German troops were annihilated, such a terrible event, How can we not make the great powers of the world tremble?
However, when the powers of various countries put their spies on the battlefields of Zaoqiang, Jingxian and other places, they only saw the devastation after the war, and there was no trace of the "Black Dragon Army", and even Yuan Shikai, the governor of Shandong, wanted to find the "Black Dragon Army", but he could not find it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Because, as soon as the war ended, the entire Central Plains Army Division was divided into pieces, and quickly lurked in Zhili, Shandong, and Shanxi in a company and platoon, and tens of thousands of people were scattered into these large provinces, like a drop of water flowing into the river, plus the place where the Black Dragon Army settled was mostly a nest of bandits from all over the country, or it entered the remote countryside and disappeared naturally without a trace.
Of course, although the Black Dragon Army has come and gone without a trace, its influence is still very huge, after all, the strength of the German Army is still recognized in the minds of the great powers of various countries, and then, even if it is as strong as the German army, and with 30,000 people, it can also be wiped out in the palm of their hearts, then they naturally have to weigh and weigh, the most obvious manifestation is that the ministers of various countries, in the negotiations between Yanjing and Li Hongzhang, all invariably changed their previous aggressive attitude and looked down on China, They have even reduced the compensation negotiated to varying degrees, and they have shown a very eager desire to sign a treaty as soon as possible.
As for the clamor of individual powers, for example, Kaiser Wilhelm II in Europe, Yang Yan wants to send 100,000 troops again, for Wadsey, for the revenge of more than 30,000 German troops, but it seems to be deliberately ignored by everyone, no way, across the ocean, 100,000 troops, it is really not so easy, as soon as Wilhelm II's words came out, they were violently opposed by all parties in Germany, of course, the European powers, in fact, all hope that the German army will send 100,000 troops again, if so, may not come again, After all, everyone knows Germany's ambitions and knows that Germany is the most unstable factor in Europe.
Whether it was the attitude of the ministers of Yanjing or the clamor of the Kaiser, Yue Weihua did not pay much attention to it, because three days later, Guangzhou once again ushered in a crucial battle.
In terms of the revolutionary army, since a week ago in the Yuxia Valley battle, annihilated the Qing army Wang Fu's troops, successfully jumped out of the Qing army's encirclement, then all the way westward to Guangzhou City, this way, the revolutionary army also had more than 3,000 people, grew to more than 20,000 people, the original five battalions of men and horses, directly expanded to five regiments, of which the largest number of 1 regiment and 2 regiments are more than 5,000 people, even the fourth regiment Liu Gengsheng and the fifth regiment of Shuai Hong, the number of people is close to 3,000, this is still the reason why Yue Weihua told not to expand too fast.
In terms of the revolutionary army, in addition to the more than 20,000 men and horses under Zheng Shiliang's department, there were still more than 6,000 people from all walks of life in Guangzhou, and nearly 30,000 men and horses from the two revolutionary armies appeared outside the city of Guangzhou, which caused great panic in the Qing court.
Of course, at this time, Lafayette was still in Shanxi, and the changes in Guangzhou naturally did not attract the attention of her old man, and the panic of the Qing court was mainly due to the real power governors in the south, such as Deshou, the governor of Guangzhou, Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang, Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, and so on.
The 30,000 revolutionary army, coupled with the intervention of the Black Dragon Army, made the equipment of the revolutionary army no worse than that of the Qing army, and even in the departments of Shuai Hong and Liu Gensheng, the equipment of their two regiments has far surpassed that of the Qing army.
The battle of Guangzhou, officially started on the 28th of the month, the revolutionary army from the beginning of the offensive, it was very rapid, all the way to the fierce attack, the Qing army was powerless, only three days, Guangzhou City was easily taken by the revolutionary army, of course, the largest contribution, the largest record is undoubtedly Shuai Hong's fifth regiment and Liu Gensheng's fourth regiment.
However, after the city of Guangzhou was taken, all kinds of contradictions and disputes began to appear within the revolutionary army, the biggest source of disputes, first of all, the performance of the various factions within the revolutionary army after entering the city was very different, some of the pseudo-revolutionary army from the party, after entering the city, it was a bandit, looting excessively, and even *** things happened from time to time, as the Shuai Hong Department of the Black Dragon Army, in response to this situation, there is no doubt that it is extremely hateful, for this reason, first of all, the quarrel between several bigwigs within the revolutionary army, which turned into a fierce confrontation, It even evolved into street fighting with thousands of people.
In this regard, Yue Weihua has always been a cold observer, because, before entering the city, Yue Weihua expected that this situation might happen, after all, today's "revolutionary army" may only be called a pseudo-revolutionary army, and there are really few of them who really understand the meaning of the revolution, which is also the reason why Yue Weihua was not very optimistic about this revolutionary uprising from the beginning, after all, the success of the revolution cannot be achieved overnight.
Yue Weihua has always believed that whether the revolution can succeed is not to take a certain city by force, but whether the revolutionary ideas can be spread among the people and whether they can be accepted by the general public.
Of course, the lack of sufficient adaptability and experience of the leader of the revolutionary army, Mr. Sun, and the commander of the revolutionary army, Mr. Zheng Shiliang, was also an important reason.
The last straw that crushed the revolutionary rebel army was the attitude of the great powers, especially Britain, the United States and Japan, among which Britain directly sent warships to participate in the war, because of the blockade and even participation in the war by the great powers, the revolutionary army finally had to withdraw from the city of Guangzhou.
In the face of the Qing army and the fierce pursuit of the great powers, the leader of the revolutionary army, Sun Yat-sen, went into exile, and the commander Zheng Shiliang died in the war.
At this point, the uprisings in Guangzhou and Huizhou ended.
Although it still ended in failure, its scale is far from being comparable in history, and the duration of time has also lasted from half a month to three months, of course, its scale is wide, its influence is great, and the spread of revolutionary ideas is far from being comparable to the Huizhou Uprising in history.
In addition, the remaining more than 2,000 people under Shuai Hong and Liu Gensheng will also become the spark of the revolution, of course, they were also officially incorporated into the Black Dragon Army sequence by Yue Weihua, and were organized into the Liangguang Army Division of the Black Dragon Army, the commander was temporarily concurrently served by Yue Weihua, and Shuai Hong was the deputy commander.
