Qiao Yu took a three-way army to attack Yunnan, but one of the threats was the east and middle roads, and sending troops from the Sichuan side was not so much to contain the Yunnan army, but to better control Yunnan after defeating Cai Yi, Cai Yi also knew very well that the terrain of Sichuan and Yunnan provinces could not choose many strategies.

Therefore, Cai Yi used a partial division to block Qiao Yu's Sichuan army in northern Yunnan, and then concentrated elite forces to solve the threat of the Guizhou army first, and the method used was like the ancient strategy of Tianji horse racing, the Guizhou army was weak, and the troops from Guizhou were closer to Kunming, and it became an inevitable choice to first make it easy and then difficult.

Cai Yi from the Yunnan army to draw the most elite three divisions, plus cavalry troops, a total of 32,000 people, ready to annihilate Han Yong's troops first, and at this time Han Yong led the main force of the Sichuan-Guizhou coalition army has approached Luoping, Luoping is located in Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi three provinces of the junction, is a beautiful scenery of the county, especially in the territory of planting a large number of rape flowers, to the turn of spring and summer, hundreds of thousands of acres of rape together together blooming beautiful, like a fairyland on earth.

However, this is the Luo Ping of later generations, Luo Ping in the Republic of China was still very poor, and there were not so many rapes planted in the territory, but more bewitching poppies, the reason why Qiao Yu let Han Yong attack here, one is that Luo Ping is seven or eight days away from Kunming, if Luo Ping is in hand, he can threaten Kunming, and another consideration is to deter Lu Rongting and avoid this two Guangxi patrol envoys coming in.

Everyone understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, after the Sichuan army annexed Yunnan, Liangguang will be in danger, no matter how jealous Lu Rongting is of Qiao Yu, he will also secretly help Qiao Yu, and the actual situation is also the same, Lu Rongting secretly provided a lot of arms and food to Yunnan, and also allowed Yuntu to be sold to the outside world through Guangxi, in order to let Cai Yi support for a longer time and consume the strength of the Sichuan army as much as possible.

It was after understanding Lu Rongting's plan that Qiao Yu decided to attack Luo Ping, Han Yong led the army all the way, and the Dian army also took the initiative to retreat and let Luo Ping out.

"Chief of Staff, Cai Ye is deliberately luring the enemy in!" Han Yong looked at the map and said with a smile.

Wu Tong also couldn't help nodding: "Cai Yi's purpose is very clear, that is, to eat us first, and then deal with the main force of Junzuo, I think he made a mistake!" ”

Han Yong waved his hand and said, "That's right, Cai Ye treats us as soft persimmons, and I'll let him know how powerful we are!" ”

"Let's use the surname Suo as a bait, I believe that Junzuo's side will soon capture Zhaotong, and Cai Ye will definitely take care of himself at that time!"

Han Yong and Wu Tong both knew that they were a partial division, and it was a natural mission to lure the enemy, so the army immediately marched into Luoping, and after arriving in Luoping, Han Yong and Wu Tong immediately stopped advancing, commanding the troops to quickly build a defensive line, allocate firepower, and put on a stubborn posture.

Cai Yi originally wanted to continue to lure the enemy, but as soon as he saw that the other party had seen through his plan, he immediately turned defense into attack, and attacked Luoping's Qianjun head-on, and at the same time sent cavalry to detour from the right flank and penetrate directly into the logistics artery of the Sichuan-Guizhou army, wanting to encircle and annihilate Han Yong and others in Luoping in one fell swoop.

In order to annihilate Han Yong's army, Cai Ye also invested a lot of money, and concentrated nearly 100 cannons, some of which were original in Yunnan, and some were purchased from the French, and the remaining dozens were provided by the Sichuan army.

But he has bitter self-knowledge, most of the artillery provided by Sichuan is defective, to put it bluntly, it is the work of apprentices to try their hands, there are many flaws, and the surname can also be greatly discounted, and what is worse is that after the outbreak of the war in Sichuan and Yunnan, Sichuan suddenly cut off the supply of shells, and now the shells in Cai Yi's hands are only two or three bases, that is to say, these cannons are basically a surname supplies.

But despite this, pulled out a hundred cannons, it still looks very bluffing, the artillery of the Yunnan army at this time also threw off their arms, stormed the position of the Sichuan-Guizhou coalition army, and suddenly the cannons roared, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains, the cannon is worthy of being the god of war, this momentum alone is enough to make the recruits who have just entered the battlefield frightened, the so-called recruits are afraid of artillery, and veterans are afraid of machine guns.

However, the artillery of the Yunnan army obviously did not scare Han Yong, this time Han Yong brought some good things, although the main force of the air force was all called by Qiao Yu, but Han Yong also brought another big killer, that is, eight 75 mm self-propelled guns, which are products developed by Sichuan a long time ago, and have begun to be exported to Europe.

Because of the ability to move on its own, the artillery mobile surname suddenly increased a lot, and it was easier to enter and exit the position, which was especially important in defensive warfare, so that one artillery could exert the power of several guns, and because of the protection of armor, the artillery could effectively avoid shrapnel killing, protect the precious artillery soldiers, and make the self-propelled artillery have an amazing advantage.

Originally, Qiao Yu was also equipped with some self-propelled guns in the main force, but due to poor traffic problems, the self-propelled guns did not rush to the battlefield, but shone in the hands of the Eastern Route Army.

The commander of the Yunnan army hurriedly commanded the artillery to retaliate, but by the time they turned the muzzle and bombarded, these self-propelled guns had already been withdrawn and replaced with another place, these eight self-propelled guns were like firefighters on the battlefield, where there were loopholes, they would go to make up for them, just like a peerless swordsman, as soon as they appeared, they could kill with one blow, and then float away, leaving no trace.

Originally, the artillery of the Sichuan army had less than 40 guns, but because of the help of self-propelled artillery, the Sichuan army actually gained the upper hand in the bombardment, destroying a total of more than 40 artillery pieces of the Yunnan army, and its own losses were just over 10, and the gap between the two sides was immediately narrowed.

"Chief of Staff, Jun Zuo has always said that fighting a war is based on industrial capacity in the final analysis, and I am now clear, the power of this self-propelled gun is really amazing, even if it fails, it is too amazing!" After finishing speaking, Han Yong also had a wry smile on his face, after more than an hour of artillery fighting, there were already six self-propelled guns lying on their stomachs.

Wu Tong is also helpless, although this weapon is huge, but it has just been produced, mechanical failure can torture people to death, otherwise the Sichuan army drove a fleet of chariots, plus armored vehicles and self-propelled artillery, the Dian army would definitely surrender without a fight.

However, the two of them have no time to sigh, Cai Ye has launched an attack, the soldiers of the Yunnan Army rushed madly towards the position of the Sichuan Army, the black pressure covers the sky, these are the essence of the Yunnan Army, the combat power is extremely strong, the marksmanship is amazing, and it is also Cai Yi's biggest capital, as soon as he fought, Cai Ye sent these troops out, it can be seen that he was already in a hurry, just now he received a telegram from Daguan, the Sichuan Army is fierce, and nearly a thousand soldiers have died before and after, it can be said that according to this trend, The pass will be guarded for less than three days, and the troops of Zhaotong will not exceed half a month, if the north gate is picked up by the Sichuan army, what hope do you have.

Therefore, Cai Yi urgently needed to annihilate all the Sichuan and Guizhou troops of Luo Ping, and then waved his army north to aid Zhaotong, and as soon as he came up, the Yunnan army put on a desperate posture, they didn't care about the bullets like a rainstorm, and they didn't care about the ferocious grenades, they only knew that they could charge with all their might, and the ravines and barbed wire could not stop the tide of the Yunnan army.

Han Yong and Wu Tong were in charge of the headquarters, and soon there were telegrams asking for help everywhere, and the sound of ticking and ticking was non-stop.

"Hmph, tell them that there is no reinforcement Lao Tzu, if anyone loses his position, send his head to me, if Lao Tzu loses his position, send his head to Jun Zuo, no one is allowed to take a step back!"

Han Yong gave the order to die, and those soldiers of the Guizhou army also felt a cold chill on their necks, so they all fought desperately, although the Yunnan army attacked fiercely, but the Sichuan-Guizhou coalition army did not retreat, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.

What's more dangerous is not here, but Xiaobaishiyan Village, this small village with only a dozen people is just in the south of Luoping County, if you want to detour to the rear of Luoping, here is the only way, the cavalry of the Yunnan army just killed here, responsible for defending here is a company of the Sichuan army, the company commander is named Wang Mingzhang.

Wang Mingzhang was only twenty-two or three years old at this time, which was the age of his prime, and he was also full of ambition, wanting to establish meritorious service on the battlefield, and he was originally sent to such a small village in the marginal area, and he still felt very lost.

However, Wang Mingzhang is also a very serious person, and there is no relaxation, but to build a complete fortification, two heavy machine guns, and mortars are all ready, just when he is busy, suddenly he heard a burst of thunderous sound, at first these soldiers were a little surprised, but soon everyone knew that this is the enemy's cavalry troops have arrived, and the number is still amazing.

Wang Mingzhang carefully observed with a telescope, and soon there was an endless cavalry team in the field of vision, with more than 5,000 people, seeing this Wang Mingzhang was also dizzy for a while, he was looking forward to fighting and making more meritorious contributions, but so many cavalry killed him, it was too much beyond the psychological bottom line.

However, Wang Mingzhang knew very well that this must be the Dian army's desire to use cavalry troops to intersperse and detour, if they succeeded, Luo Ping's troops would really be attacked from both sides, and the situation would be too dangerous.

Now the burden falls on his shoulders, he must hold this small mountain village, and he can drag it out for as long as he can, Wang Mingzhang asked his subordinates to ask Han Yong for help, and on the other hand, he made every effort to strengthen the defensive force, fortunately it is in the valley, and there is only a road more than 30 meters wide, which greatly affects the play of the cavalry, otherwise this person is only afraid that the cavalry of the Yunnan army will become a meat pie as soon as he walks over.

Soon the cavalry troops rushed over, these cavalry did not think that there was still an army to defend here, so they were extremely haphazard, but soon they paid a terrible price, and the bullets like a storm of bullets smashed all those who rushed to the front into a sieve.

After the third watch, please believe in the small character, rest assured to collect, and the small is grateful
