Chapter 12 The head of the general in the army of ten thousand horses
It is said that Lieutenant General Qu Tongfeng is also a battle-hardened veteran, when he was in the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, he was a second-class engineer on the cruiser Dingyuan, and later studied in Japan, graduated from the army non-commissioned officer school, and even Xu Shuzheng called him a senior in terms of qualifications.
As one of the four King Kongs of the Duan system, Qu Tongfeng led the order to go out and concurrently served as the deputy commander-in-chief of the former enemy on the Ding** West Road as the commander of the first division of the border army, and led the army to fight against Wu Peifu's third division.
The commander-in-chief of the Western Route Army was Duan Zhigui, but this pimp general sat on the special train in Changxindian all day long and played mahjong without asking about the war at all, so the command fell to the deputy commander Qu Tongfeng, who commanded the 50,000 horses of the Western Route Army.
For the victory or defeat of this battle, Qu Tongfeng is still full of numbers, the predecessor of the Northwest Frontier Army is the participating army, what the participating army does, that is preparing to go to Europe to participate in the world war, from the big to the horse pulling artillery, to the buttons on the military uniform, all of which are Japanese goods, the food is not bad, canned meat, canned fruit is enough, and there is also a supply of cold soda in the summer.
Qu Tongfeng once studied in Japan, he has seen some of the world, what is fighting in the world today, is steel, supplies, no guns, no guns, no bullets, just take the slogan, use the egg!
Wu Peifu's Third Division is a little famous, but it was their luck that they encountered soft-footed shrimp, and when they encountered border guards armed to the teeth, let him try again? If you don't beat the shit out of the girl, you're not a hero.
As Qu Tongfeng expected, two days ago after the official start of the war, the border guards were like a bamboo, the East Route Army under the leadership of Xu Shuzheng, defeated the direct army to occupy Yangcun, Tianjin is just around the corner, the war on the West Road is also quite smooth, today the front sent a war report, Wu Peifu was defeated, has withdrawn from Gaobeidian to retreat in the direction of Baoding, Qu Tongfeng heard the news and immediately moved the former enemy headquarters to the south, in the evening in the south of Zhuozhou, north of Gaobeidian Songlindian camped.
The headquarters was set up in the ancestral hall in the south of the village, and the staff officers drew up a battle plan in accordance with Commander Qu's intentions, and also made up a sentence for the soldiers to sing: Go straight to Baoding Mansion and capture Wu Xiaogui alive.
Qu Tongfeng stayed up all night excitedly, and asked people to find tailors from Beijing overnight, tailor them for themselves, and make the general's dress, and he even prepared the general's epaulettes for himself, sewn them on his shoulders and looked at the mirror with satisfaction.
It was not until the early hours of the morning that Commander Qu felt sleepy, took off his riding boots and military uniform, and pretended to sleep on the recliner for a while.
The sound of explosions came one after another, mixed with gunshots and shouts, and there was a mess of porridge outside, Qu Tongfeng was still forced to calm down at first, and asked the adjutant to go out to see what was going on, and the adjutant ran out and was dumbfounded, and the flames shouted at the horses, and I don't know how many people were running wildly in the raging flames.
In the place where Songlindian has a large projectile, there are stationed the Ding** West Road Headquarters, the division headquarters of the First Division of the Border Guards, a cavalry company of the Fifth Mixed Brigade of the Third Division, the baggage battalion of the Thirteenth Division of the Army, and a company of the Second Mixed Brigade on Xu Shuzheng's side.
The adjutant urgently reported to Commander Qu, and Commander Qu immediately realized that this was Wu Xiaogui stealing the camp! The headquarters is located at the rear of the battle line, and the large number of troops are dozens of miles away, so a single guard battalion can't stop it at all.
Under the order, the guards set up the commander and left, in a hurry they didn't even have time to put on the riding boots, only took a military uniform, just came out of the side door of the ancestral hall, and rushed over a group of war horses, and rushed the guards who walked in front, and then a knight raised his gun to fight, and the guards fell in response, and Commander Qu was captured in a daze.
Chen Zikun was so arrogant that he was about to gallop on his horse, but the war horse under his crotch was hit by a stray bullet, and he fell to the ground with a long neigh, pressing Chen Zikun underneath.
Wang Degui was anxious when he saw this, and the horse caught up from behind, and a hungry tiger pounced on Qu Tongfeng to the ground, and according to his head, it was an old fist.
Li Changsheng then came, stopped the horse, beckoned Zhao Yufeng to move the corpse of the war horse away, and asked with concern: "Big man Chen, are you not injured?" ”
Chen Zikun jumped up with a carp: "It's okay, let's go!" ”
But the remaining two war horses also spread their hooves and ran, Chen Zikun gritted his teeth, took off two flower machine guns from the dead man on the ground, threw one to Wang Degui and said: "Car!" ”
Wang Degui understood, took the gun and took the lead to kill the place where the car was parked, Chen Zikun put Qu Tongfeng on his shoulder, followed closely with a flower machine gun in one hand, and shouted in his mouth: "Get out of the way, the commander is injured!" ”
This trick was really good, no one stopped them on the road, ran to the side of the car, Chen Zikun pulled the door and threw the unconscious admiral in, copied a crankshaft from under the driver's position, and shook it violently in front of the front of the car.
Li Changsheng and Zhao Yufeng also got into the back seat of the car, Wang Degui jumped next to him with a gun on guard, and when he heard the roar of the car, he quickly opened the car door and jumped in, and the flower machine was still facing ahead.
Chen Zikun also jumped into the car, quickly turned on the headlights, stepped on the accelerator, and the car started with a strange scream, and rushed towards the entrance of the village along the road from which he came.
Hundreds of infantry in front of him blocked the road in a mess, Chen Zikun honked his horn violently, the soldiers illuminated by the bright headlights couldn't open their eyes, Wang Degui raised his gun and swept it into the sky, shouting: "Get out of the way!" ”
Suddenly there was a loud gunfire behind him, and someone shouted: "Stop the car, they tied up Commander Qu!" ”
Wang Degui leaned out of the car window, and the machine gun in his hand was fanned out, and the soldiers fell to the ground like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, and those who were not knocked down were also hit by cars.
The car was whistling, and the heavy machine gun in the bunker at the entrance of the village was originally pointing outward, and it was too late to adjust the direction at this time, and the sentry was just about to raise the rifle when a smoking grenade was thrown over, and they were crying wolf.
Finally fought a bloody way, Chen Zikun's tense nerves relaxed a little, touched his body, all beards and tails, and asked everyone: "Are you okay?" ”
The adrenaline rises in the fierce battle, and even if he is shot, he can't feel pain, so Chen Zikun has this question.
Wang Degui said with a smile: "Bodhisattva bless, not even a single hair was hurt." ”
Li Changsheng also smiled: "After 20 years as a soldier, this battle is the most enjoyable. ”
Chen Zikun said: "Do you still want to have another addiction? ”
Zhao Yufeng wiped the cold sweat on his head, and was shocked: "Oh my god, I won't come back to the second time, my little liver is still plopping." ”
Laughing, Chen Zikun said: "How about the big fish we caught?" ”
In fact, Qu Tongfeng woke up early, and his beard was suffocated, and his angry mustache also hung down, and he closed his eyes and didn't speak.
Li Changsheng patted his face: "Sir, wake up, don't pretend." ”
Qu Tongfeng was helpless, opened his eyes and said: "Brothers, I am Qu Tongfeng, you let me go, I promise not to pursue it, and give each of you 5,000, oh no, 50,000 oceans." ”
There was another burst of laughter, and even Zhao Yufeng, who was the most greedy for money, couldn't help but sneer: "Commander Qu, you treat us like three-year-old children." ”
The car was getting slower and slower, making a popping sound, and finally stopped leaving, Chen Zikun jumped out of the car, lifted the hood to take a look, shook his head, and said with a bang: "Come down and go." ”
At this time, the sky was already bright, the air in the countryside was fresh, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and there was a dense forest in front of them. ”
As soon as the words fell, a group of soldiers with leaves on their heads jumped out of the woods, and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at them, Chen Zikun was suddenly dumbfounded, and slowly raised his hands, and the cigarette in Zhao Yufeng's mouth also fell, beating his chest and saying, "I didn't come with you if I knew I wouldn't have come." ”
Suddenly, Chen Zikun burst into laughter, and the group of soldiers also laughed, Zhao Yufeng looked at it, it turned out to be his own people, and the brothers of the machine gun company of the division headquarters guard battalion had arrived.
"Company Commander Zhang, why are you here?" Zhao Yufeng immediately recovered his spirits.
Company Commander Zhang put away the shell gun and said, "We are waiting for the commander's order to ambush the fish that slipped through the net here." ”
Zhao Yufeng was a little puzzled: "What kind of fish slipped through the net?" ”
Company Commander Zhang said: "The marshal personally led the troops to raid the Songlin Shop, I'm afraid that he has already succeeded at this time, what are you?" As he spoke, he pointed at Qu Tongfeng.
"I took with me some of the prisoners taken by the brethren." Zhao Yufeng explained with great ease.
……
An hour later, everyone returned to the pine forest shop, at this time the sky was already bright, the pine forest shop was full of messes, broken walls everywhere, and the threshing floor was densely packed with prisoners, it turned out that after Chen Zikun and others made a big fuss in the pine forest shop, Wu Peifu personally led the elite to raid the headquarters of the Anhui army, and won it without much effort, and captured the precursor personnel of the headquarters, but there was only one missing Qu Tongfeng.
was searching everywhere, and the good news came, it turned out that Qu Tongfeng had been arrested, and the person who arrested him was the meritorious man who set fire to the pine forest shop.
Wu Peifu had to look up to the sky and laugh, and said, "Come on, bring it to me and take a look." ”
The adjutant said: "Yes, with Qu Tongfeng!" ”
Wu Peifu said: "The general of the defeated army, whoever wants to see him, send him directly to Baoding, and let Cao Dashuai dispose of it, what I want to see is a good son of our third division." ”
The four people covered in dust were brought up, Zhao Yufeng put his heels together, straightened his small chest and said, "Report the handsome ......"
Wu Peifu raised a hand to stop his report and looked the four people up and down.
Zhao Yufeng is a second lieutenant quartermaster at the division headquarters, this person is okay with logistics, and going into battle to fight is definitely not this piece of material, and it can be seen from his flickering eyes that this battle is definitely not commanded by him.
The other three people, Wu Peifu also knows, the two veterans are the squad leaders of the gang house and the horse shed, this kind of veteran oil, although the military skills are strong, but the enthusiasm is not high, in case of trouble, they can hide, eating food and being a soldier is just a profession for them.
Wu Peifu's gaze stopped at the last private, this soldier enlisted in Hengyang, his marksmanship and courage are good, seeing that his blood-stained uniform still does not change his face, and he is also calm in the face of his fierce gaze, it is like a second-class soldier who has just experienced the battle, and he is clearly a veteran of the bloody field.
"You report." Wu Peifu pointed at Chen Zikun.
"Yes!" Chen Zikun straightened his waist, 1510 recounted the ins and outs of the matter, he used accurate words, clearly organized, time, place, people, and quantities were clearly stated, but he greatly beautified himself, originally accidentally crashed into the pine forest shop, and he interpreted it as a heroic feat of making a decision on the spot and destroying the enemy headquarters without hesitation.
When he spoke, Wu Peifu kept pacing, and from the logic of a person's speech and the choice of words and sentences, it was completely clear that this person's education level was completely visible, and he could basically be sure that this little-known private under his command must be highly educated.
"Good job." Wu Peifu nodded, "Even if the four of you make up for your merits, I will not be held accountable for the loss of grain and grass, go down and rest, and then talk about meritorious deeds when you enter Beijing." ”
"Xie Dashuai!" The four of them saluted together.
Zhao Yufeng shouted: "Turn right and walk in unison." But Chen Zikun took a step forward and saluted again: "I am willing to lead the troops to smash Changxindian, capture Duan Zhigui alive and sacrifice it to the marshal." ”
"Chen Zikun, what nonsense are you talking about!" Zhao Yufeng was so anxious that he almost cried, and said in his heart, if you want to make meritorious contributions, don't pull us.
Wu Peifu laughed: "Boy, you are not small, a little private dares to boast of such a Haikou, are you and my generals all waste?" ”
Chen Zikun's face did not change: "The generals are doing a big thing of strategizing and winning a thousand miles, and the small thing of taking the head of the general in the 10,000-horse army can be done by a mere private." ”
Wu Peifu's face sank: "Good boy, you think you are Changshan Zhao Zilong, okay, I want to see how you capture Duan Zhigui alive, how many soldiers and horses do you want?" He made up his mind in his heart, if this kid doesn't know the current affairs, he will open his mouth to ask for a brigade and a regiment of soldiers and horses, then he is a rhetorical person, not worth cultivating, if he understands the truth that soldiers are not expensive, as long as there are more than 100 elite soldiers, it is a material that can be made.
I only heard Chen Zikun say: "I only need three people." ”
