Chapter 189: See Cai Yi
Chapter 189
'Suddenly? Tang Jiyao can ignore Liu Xianshi's opinion, but he can't ignore Dai Ji's words, Dai Ji is a classmate with Cai Yi, he is a battalion commander under Cai Yi, and Tang Jiyao naturally needs to be afraid of Dai Jiyao. However, fear is fear, Tang Jiyao understands the situation very well at this time, he looked at Dai Jian and said: "Mr. Dai, you don't understand military affairs, now the enemy is besieging but not attacking, it is clear what is waiting for, if we wait until they are ready, we will really become a turtle in the urn at that time, and we will not be able to escape if we want to." β
Therefore, now we must break through before the enemy is ready, or we will be too late to do anything when they are all ready. β
Tang Jiyao quickly looked at Liu Xianshi again, and when he saw that Liu Xianshi still didn't move, he raised his eyebrows: "Liu Guanshi, didn't you hear my words, don't you go and prepare?" β
Dai Huan glanced at Liu Xianshi helplessly, Liu Xianshi was helpless, so he could only hurriedly say: "Yes, yes." Then he left the chamber with a bitter face.
Liu Xianshi left, Tang Jiyao looked at everyone sitting again, looked around, and saw Guo Chongguang, He Linshu, Huang Zelin, Zhao Dequan and others bowed their heads unconsciously, not daring to look at Tang Jiyao. There is no way, the coup d'Γ©tat was launched by them, originally they thought that it would be very simple to collude with Tang Jiyao to launch a coup, but they didn't expect that the Chen family had already prepared, but instead they caught a group of them off guard, and now they fled with the large army, and several people were like lost dogs, so they naturally didn't dare to look at Tang Jiyao.
'Mr. Dai, the situation is a little critical now, and then I would like to ask you to take advantage of this time to help me run to Kunming when we raid the enemy's base camp, tell the Governor about our situation here, and ask the Governor to mobilize another battalion for me? Tang Jiyao's eyes showed contempt, and finally he had to shift his gaze to Dai Huan.
'Huh? Dai Jian couldn't help but glance at Tang Jiyao in surprise, just now he thought that Tang Jiyao was going to bite the bullet, but he didn't expect that he still wanted Cai Yi's support.
"I'm going to prepare, Camp Commander Tang rest assured, I will rush to Kunming as soon as possible to explain the situation here to the governor." Although Dai Jian was surprised, he understood the situation very well, and nodded and stood up.
'Mr. Dai has worked hard. Tang Jiyao hurriedly said: "In this case, I will also go and sort out my troops." β
Tang Jiyao's face looked a little better, glanced back at the other people in the chamber, and walked out of the room directly with a cold snort, leaving these weak-hearted Guizhou insiders in the chamber finally breathed a sigh of relief.
'Mr. Dai, this time you go to Kunming, you must tell Cai Dudu about the situation here, you have seen it, in order to cover the sky with one hand, Fan Wei and Chen Mingren will not hesitate to kill us with all their might. Guo Chongguang hurriedly grabbed Dai Huan.
'I'll tell you the truth about the situation here, Brother Chongguang, you're waiting here, I'll go and get back quickly.' Dai Jian is still in the lie of Guo Chongguang and others, so his attitude towards Guo Chongguang and others is quite friendly, patted Guo Chongguang on the shoulder, and went down to prepare to go with a solemn face.
Although today's Xingyi is surrounded by the enemy on three sides, the road to retreat to Kunming is still unimpeded, perhaps Fan Wei They are also afraid of the Yunnan army, and just want to drive them back to Kunming, so they are left a way, of course, the soldiers are not tired of cheating, in the direction of retreat left, who stipulates that there can be no ambush?
Guizhou military side.
'Report! Report! β
Outside Chen Lijun's tent stationed outside Xingyi City, a voice sounded, and when he heard this sound, Chen Lijun, Lin Zehan, Ma Xijue, Yang Shuqing, and other battalion commanders and regiment commanders of the Guizhou Front Army, who were discussing the attack plan in the barracks, all stopped talking.
Chen Lijun, the commander of the First Army in Guizhou, turned his head to look at the signal soldiers who came in and said, "Say." β
'Report to the sir, I just received a report that there is a large-scale troop transfer operation in Xingyi City, and the enemy army may have to start an operation in a short time! β
'Oh, finally can't help but want to do it?' Hearing this, Chen Lijun's eyes lit up, and his fists couldn't help clenching.
'It seems that I am ready to start, pass the order, the whole army is on secondary alert, the organ battalion is ready, the artillery company is ready, once the enemy wants to get out of the city, give me full firepower, and beat them back! β
'Yes! The communications corps went down quickly.
'Ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of the meeting for the time being, everyone go back and prepare for the battle, and we will discuss it again when the battle is over. After the arrangement, Chen Lijun looked at the rest of the officers.
'Yes! The officers received the order and quickly went down to prepare, and soon, only the two brothers Chen Lijun and Chen Liqun were left in the camp tent.
"Big brother, don't beat them too badly, if you really tie up a gap with Cai Yi, it will not be conducive to the development of the future. Everyone had just left, and when they heard that Chen Lijun had used the artillery company, Chen Liqun couldn't help but say a word.
Now their strength far exceeds that of Tang Jiyao and their team, and Chen Liqun is really afraid that the eldest brother will wipe out all of Tang Jiyao's Dian army on a whim.
'I know the measure, Liqun, what are you going to do this time?' and didn't let us destroy them, and didn't let us let them escape, this battle was really untechnical and aggrieved. Hearing this, although Chen Lijun nodded, he still couldn't help but complain.
Now Guizhou is under the initial control of their Chen family, he is the only soldier of the Chen family who has been trained by the formal system, so at this time, he has ascended to the sky and directly become the commander of the first army in Guizhou, under the jurisdiction of the governor Yang Xincheng, and it can be said that he is under one person and above ten thousand people in the army.
As for Yang Xincheng, although he is the nominal overseer of Guizhou, he also has four commanders of the first, second, third, and fourth armies of Guizhou, but he only has the right to mobilize army commanders, and does not have direct command of the army.
At present, Chen Lijun of the First Army of Guizhou is responsible for the military armament in Xingyi and Panxian in northern Guizhou, and guards against Cai Yi in Yunnan. The Second Army and the Third Army were in charge of Wang Youzhi of Weng'an, guarding Hunan and Guangxi, and the Fourth Army was in charge of Song Zhenyi, guarding against Yucheng in the northern Guizhou region. The four army commanders in four directions constituted the military force composition of Guizhou during this period, and these four army commanders all came out of Pingyue, therefore, although Yang Xincheng was the governor of Guizhou, but if it was okay in normal times, in special periods, he could not command these army commanders at all.
At the same time, among these four armies, only Chen Lijun's First Army has a certain combat effectiveness, the New Army is composed of the new army, the Pingyue Regiment is composed of the training army, and the first army has about 15,000 people recruited locally in Guizhou. It was not easy to have so many troops under his hands, and he happened to encounter an attack from Yunnan, Chen Lijun was ready to do a big job, who would have thought that Chen Liqun's so-called plan actually made him unable to fight with Yunnan happily, not to mention how aggrieved Chen Lijun was.
"Big brother, if you say this, don't worry, the younger brother asked me to tell you, the battle will be fought sooner or later, until you get tired of the fight." It's just that now this battle should be taken care of. Cai Ye in Yunnan is not an ordinary person, if he really wants to fight, my family may not be an opponent. Chen Liqun couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.
Of course, Chen Liqun didn't know why Cai Yi was so valued by Chen Liqing, but since Chen Liqing had emphasized it several times, Chen Liqun and they naturally had to treat Cai Ye with caution. Of course, what Chen Liqun is saying now is also the truth, what the Chen family needs when they are in charge of Guizhou is not war, but to control the entire territory of Guizhou as soon as possible, and they need a period of peace.
'Cai Ng, Cai Ng, this Cai Ng, according to our intelligence, this Cai Ng, is only about the same age as us, how powerful is he? Chen Lijun couldn't listen to the words of the elder ambition and extinguishing his prestige, and he couldn't help but be even more unhappy with Cai Ye, who had not met.
'Hehe, I don't know. But if someone can become the governor of Yunnan by himself, there must be something extraordinary. And it took a lot of effort for our family to barely have this climate. Chen Liqun could only accompany Chen Lijun and smile bitterly, he really didn't understand the war, he came this time to send supplies, coats, compressed biscuits and other food to Chen Lijun.
Every day, tens of thousands of people are besieged in Xingyi without success, and these consumption will definitely not be supported by the ordinary army, but the grain reserves of Pingyue in the past two years are for today's battle, and Guizhou can naturally support this consumption. It's just that there is a problem in this transportation, the transportation is quite inconvenient, and Chen Liqun finally realized the national defense significance of transportation after sending food several times.
While the two were chatting, the sound of battle soon sounded outside Xingyi City.
'Oh, it's been a fight so soon, why, Liqun, go and see how our army compares to the Dian army, lest you worry every day that our army is no match for the Dian army. Hearing this voice, Chen Lijun looked at Chen Liqun.
'Well, since I'm here, I'll go and see it too.' Chen Liqun nodded, so the two quickly rushed to the front line of the battle.
As a matter of fact, during this period, China's hot-weapon combat was still in the embryonic stage of development, and no strategy or tactics had been formed for the time being. For Tang Jiyao in Xingyi City, if they want to break through the army outside the city, they need to use their machine gun charge to open the way for them, and then the follow-up troops rush out, then they can easily solve the enemy, Tang Jiyao's previous battles relied on the power of machine guns to sweep away one armed force after another in Yunnan. He is also proficient in this tactic.
It's just that when he encountered the Guizhou army that also had a machine gun counter-charge, Tang Jiyao's tactic failed, not only failed, but he directly lost one-third of his strength in the first battle with Chen Lijun at that time. At that time, Tang Jiyao was so frightened that he hurriedly ordered to retreat, retreat, and retreat, and retreated to Xingyi, so he relied on Xingyi's city wall defense and no longer retreated.
And now, if Tang Jiyao wants to break out of Xingyi City to break through Chen Lijun and their army, it is obviously impossible to use the previous method. So he thought of a cruel way, using Liu Xianshi's troops as cannon fodder to charge ahead, and then his people were behind this group of people, waiting for an opportunity to raid. I have to say, the method is good.
Liu Xianshi's family background, which Liu Xianshi had finally recruited, was driven by Tang Jiyao's madness, and rushed towards Chen Lijun and his team one by one without fear of life and death. At the beginning, Chen Lijun was really beaten, and their troops were caught off guard and almost rushed to the door. But all of a sudden, under the decisive command of Chen Lijun, the sudden increase in the number of machine guns ruthlessly harvested the army that Liu Xianshi had managed to organize with great difficulty in just a few minutes.
Then, a battle naturally ended so quickly, Tang Jiyao still wanted to rush, where did he think that the enemy's firepower was so fierce, the frightened Tang Jiyao naturally couldn't retreat, and after leaving a corpse, Tang Jiyao and they immediately closed the city gate and couldn't shrink.
In order to deal with the Dian army, Chen Liqing has been preparing for two years, spending at least 200,000 silver on the army's weapon upgrades, Tang Jiyao has 3,000 people and dozens of machine guns, how can it be Chen Lijun's opponent.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Lijun has confidence in his army, but in fact, the overall military strength of Guizhou is really inferior to the Yunnan Yunnan army. In the event of a fight, relying on the number of officers in Yunnan, even if Guizhou has enough supplies to support 100,000 troops, I am afraid that in the end it will only win a crushing victory.
Of course, history has been changed here, and Guizhou is no longer the same as that history in history. As long as Guizhou is given a certain amount of time, sooner or later the Guizhou army will be an army that dominates the southwest.
Kunming, Yunnan.
The time entered January 5, 1912, and it was just over three months after the reading of Yunnan University.
On this day, the weather was dry and there was no rain, but Kunming was still relatively cold. Walking on the street, you can see people tiptoeing forward quickly. And, of course, the patrols that walk through the streets every once in a while.
Although Yunnan said that it had only been three months of reading, the reading action carried out by Cai Ye and them could be regarded as peaceful compared to the reading power of other provinces. Therefore, after reading in Yunnan, the lives of ordinary people have not undergone any major changes.
Cai Ye is also a rare and ambitious young man, and after reading it, he also implemented some plans to benefit the people, not only did not disturb the people, but made the people of Kunming also feel that there was a big man in the sky.
'Overall, Kunming is not bad, the climate is a little warmer than our Guiyang, and looking at everyone's life, this Cai Yi should be a better talker. Zhang Xianmo and Cai Yue walked on the streets of Kunming, and after comparing Kunming with Guiyang, Zhang Xianmo and Cai Yue communicated.
"It's okay, Brother Hongzao, we really have to go directly to Cai Ng, if they know our identity, will Cai Que arrest us?" Cai Yue didn't have the heart to chat with Zhang Xianmo, on the contrary, thinking that Chen Lijun was fighting with Tang Jiyao now, but at this time he came to the enemy's camp, thinking about Cai Yue was a little apprehensive.
"Of course, we came to Kunming to find Cai Yi, as for our identity, even if it is exposed? Hearing this, Zhang Xianmo smiled and looked up at the front, "Don't worry, Lao Cai, I dare to guarantee that Cai Ye will not arrest us, take it easy, Lao Cai, Nuo, there is a military and political axe in front, calm down, let's go see Cai Yi." β
'Ah, it's coming so soon?' Cai Yue hurriedly looked up, and when it was really the Kunming military and political axe in front of him, he couldn't help but be shocked.
'Huh. Zhang Xianmo smiled slightly, turned around and walked directly towards the military and political axe, Cai Yue saw it and hurriedly followed.
'Stop, the military and political axes are heavy, and idlers are not allowed to approach! β
It's just that when Zhang Xianmo and Cai Yue just approached the military and political axe, the person in front of the military and political axe decisively stopped the two.
The heavy land of the military and political axe is naturally not something that ordinary people can say close to it.
Zhang Xianmo and Cai Yue are naturally not ordinary people, Zhang Xianmo smiled slightly: "This little brother, please go and inform Cai Yi, the governor of Guizhou, Zhang Xianmo, the director of the Guizhou Foreign Liaison Department, and Cai Yue, the deputy minister, to visit on behalf of the Guizhou military and political axe. β
'Guizhou military and political axe representative? The soldier's face changed, and then he saw that Zhang Xianmo and Cai Yue were extraordinary, and immediately believed half of it.
Wait here, and I'll tell you. He left a word, turned and ran into the military axe.
"By the way, Lao Cai, I seem to have heard that this Cai Du studied under Liang Qichao, and Lao Cai, you also seem to have something to do with Liang Qichao, maybe you will expose this relationship later, and Cai Du Du Xingxing will retire directly? While waiting, Zhang Xianmo looked at Cai Yue and still looked a little flustered, and couldn't help but quip.
Cai Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Hongzao, don't make fun of me, we are now hostile, not to mention the relationship between classmates, even brothers may be killed, besides, I have only heard of Brother Songpa, neither of us has ever met, I don't know who Brother Songpo is." β
'That's right. Zhang Xianmo nodded, showing contemplation.
Military and political axe, Cai Ye was frowning at this time and listening to his own people analyze the major events that happened in Nanjing before the fifth day. On January 1, 1912, the Nanjing National Political Axe was proclaimed, and Sun Yat-sen was elected as the provisional president of the Republic of China, announcing the establishment of the Republic of China.
Sun Yat-sen suddenly came back from the United States, and as soon as he came back, he ignored the North-South peace conference brought out by Yuan Shikai and Chen Qimei, but went directly to Nanjing, and under the recommendation of Hu Hanmin and other veterans of the League, he directly announced the founding of the Republic of China.
When the news came out, this kind of memorabilia naturally attracted the attention of the governors of the whole country, and Cai Ye naturally had no time to take care of other things, and basically asked people to discuss the more complicated situation caused by the establishment of the Republic of China at this time every day.
The situation of Tang Jiyao in Guizhou has not yet reached him, and with Cai Yi's understanding of Guizhou, the 3,000 people given to Tang Jiyao are enough to help the constitutionalists in Guizhou suppress those trouble-making revolutionary parties, so he is not worried about Tang Jiyao, but pays attention to the news from Yanjing and Shanghai every day.
To tell the truth, he was not optimistic about Sun Yat-sen and a group of revolutionary parties who could only toss, on the contrary, he believed at this time that the only person who could rule China and inherit China was Yuan Shikai, who had both ability and political integrity, political clearance, and superior military ability.
As a result, he was very disgusted by the establishment of the Republic of China and Sun Dacang's indiscriminate trouble, and at the same time he was also worried about Yuan Shikai whether Yuan Shikai could solve the situation. When the soldiers reported that there were representatives of Guizhou outside the military and political axes asking to see him, Cai Ye looked a little stunned. (To be continued.) )
