191 rookie growth
"I rub it, it turns out that it's still my reason?!" Zhao Yun almost fainted, but there were too many old people who were transferred by himself, and there were too many recruits in the first regiment, and his combat strength was declining rapidly.
"Then how many veterans are there in the Seventh Regiment, which is very capable of fighting?"
"There are probably more than 760 numbers, and these people are all from the Qi Overseer Army after hearing that Lord Zhu Xi returned to the young master."
"I'm rubbing, Zhu Xi, this old boy is still so charming! When this fight is over, I will definitely reward them well! ”
"But there is only a difference of more than 300 veterans, how can the combat strength of the two regiments be so different?"
"This has something to do with the place where they replenished the troops, because the first regiment was stationed in Nanjing, so the basic people of Nanjing were supplemented. Nanjing has not fought for a long time, and the Qi Governor Army has recruited soldiers here several times before, so the personnel who can be recruited are relatively scarce, and the quality cannot keep up. However, the Seventh Regiment was pulled by Zhu Xi to Lishui and other places, and the recruited soldiers in Lishui were mountainous and hilly, so the living conditions of the people were worse than those of Nanjing, a big city, but the ability to endure hardships was stronger, so the combat power of the recruits was much stronger than that recruited locally in Nanjing! ”
Zhao Yun thought about it, compared with the children in the city, the ability to endure hardships in the later generations was not a little stronger, and her physical essence was also much stronger.
"By the way, Lao Shao, when you mention this, I remember, where is Lao Tzu's tax police corps?"
"It should have passed Zhenjiang!" Shao Lao Er looked at the wall clock on the wall and said affirmatively.
But Zhao Yun felt that something must have happened to the tax police corps, otherwise the battle had been fought for almost three days, and it hadn't reached the city of Nanjing?
On the morning of the 29th, Zhu Xi, as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, found that many people in the city were packing their belongings and preparing to escape, so he ordered the city gate to be closed and no one was allowed to leave.
Zhu Xi temporarily transferred the 1st Regiment out of the battlefield, and let the 7th Regiment and the 19th Regiment, which had just arrived, attack eastward together, except for a few troops to monitor the river. It just so happened that Zhou Luo also sent a telegram from Zhenjiang, and asked Nanjing to quickly attack and attack the Qi army at Longtan with the troops of the Eastern Front.
On the morning of the same day, after the 7th Regiment recaptured Qixia Mountain for the third time, it was still handed over to the 1st Regiment for defense.
In the afternoon of the same day, the 1st Regiment, which had already "made a big show" on the battlefield, was defeated again, and Qixia Mountain was taken by the Qi army again, so Zhu Xi ordered the 7th Regiment of the 1st Division and the 19th Regiment of the 2nd Division to attack Qixia Mountain again and occupy it, and there was no need to hand it over to the 1st Regiment again.
"Hu ......" heard that Zhu Xi was not transferring the first regiment to the front line, and almost all the generals of Zhao Yun's family breathed a sigh of relief, this first regiment was really too bad. In order to avoid his indiscriminate command, Zhao Yun had remarks about not interfering in military battles before the war began. In fact, Zhao Yun did not interfere in any of Zhu Xi's arrangements, and both Zhu Xi and Zhou Luo expressed great respect for Zhao Yun. You must know that in this era of warlord warfare, the boss does not interfere in your war affairs, which is equivalent to believing in your ability and loyalty.
And Zhao Yun actually saw Zhu Xi's fight going wrong a few times, and he really wanted to intervene, but in the end he held back. This war is not something that a layman can dictate. If others had foreshadowing before, and they would have commanded blindly, they would definitely follow Jiang Gong and be defeated. So Zhao Yun simply didn't do anything, just waited for Zhu Xi's news, and just gave Zhu Xi some support in other aspects.
Not to mention, Zhu Xi was a mess, and the team around Zhao Yun was also a mess. The formation of many teams has been disrupted, some because of the rout, and some because of the attrition. The soldiers and horses of the Qi Overseer Army are desperate this time, and their combat power is completely incomparable with what they had in their previous impressions.
At this time, the tax police corps, which had been delayed for a long time, finally had news.
The tax police corps that Zhao Yun had high hopes for was really in trouble at this moment, they were not marching to Nanjing, but were fighting with the forts in Zhenjiang and the warships on the Yangtze River!
After the offensive and defensive battle under the city of Nanjing, the water battle of the Yangtze River also followed, and the fact that the Qi army was able to cross the river safely this time had a lot to do with the navy's attitude of favoring the direct family.
At this moment, Zhu Xi called Zhou Luo and agreed to counterattack the enemy in Longtan at the same time from the east and west on the 30th. But there is a premise that the warships on the Yangtze River must be cleared out first.
After Zhu Xi learned that the tax police corps and the navy were engaged in an artillery battle, he immediately called Zhao Yun from the periphery of Nanjing to ask for support.
"Support?" Zhao Yunmu said, is there support? There must be, but in this way, the soldiers in the camp will be exposed to everyone's eyes again, this is not the Mongolian desert with underdeveloped information, nor is it Yixing County, Zhao Yun's base.
In the 1920s, it was the richest region in the whole of China, southern Jiangsu, and at this time, southern Jiangsu could even be said to be the richest region in the whole of Asia economically. The convenience of information is not comparable to that in Mongolia, and there are many foreign thieves here, as long as Zhao Yun's soldiers leave the city, they can be followed by two or three foreign newspaper reporters who are not afraid of death.
If you stop them, they will shout about human rights with you, if you don't stop them, they will report everything to you, even the number of the troops and the destination will be written in the newspaper.
Sincerely, it's not good to kill them, it's not good not to kill them, Zhao Yun was annoyed by them, gritted his teeth and said, "What a group of curious babies!" ”
"Oh for the smokescreen!" Zhao Yun suddenly thought that Li Mingrui of the Seventh Regiment just took advantage of the smoke screen to rush to the top of the mountain and capture the hundreds of Qi troops on the top of the mountain! I can't borrow a natural smoke screen, but I can always borrow it when it's dark!
"Someone, tell Master Zhu Xizhu, let him hold out for an afternoon, and the support I sent to him will arrive tonight!"
"Yes!"
"Lao Shao!" In a daze, Shao Lao Er heard a question ringing in his ear.
Shao Lao Er scolded in his heart, which guy! Still not sleeping so late? Suddenly I thought, I am not still in the office now, isn't this the voice of the young master?
Rubbing his eyes, Shao Lao Er got up and replied, "Young Master, what's the matter?" ”
"I guess we've got it!" Zhao Yun's eyes were bloodshot, and he replied tiredly.
Seeing that Zhao Yun was in poor condition and declared that he was "in the scheme", Shao Lao Er immediately became vigilant, "In the scheme? Young master, what are we doing? ”
"Let's not talk about the plan, let me ask you, have the reinforcements sent to Zhu Xi arrived?"
Shao Lao Er's face showed a little hesitation, and he clenched his fists and said, "Reinforcements have been sent......
Zhao Yun saw Shao Lao Er's hesitation, his face hesitated, and his brows furrowed. "What? Having difficulties? ”
"Young master, those British warships have bombarded our reinforcement team with naval guns again, and our reinforcement operations will not be able to carry out until dark!"
"Then I didn't ask, what do the British want? Do you want to go to war with Lao Tzu? ”
"Young master, don't mention it, I sent someone, the British said that they don't participate in our war, they just school guns!"
"School guns?" Zhao Yun almost jumped up, such a lame excuse, the British also came up with it. But on second thought, the British still want to find an excuse, that is, they are not ready to completely tear their faces, otherwise the British warships stationed in the Far East will swarm over. Ay! Wait until you clean up Wu Peifu who is making trouble in this nest, and then clean up these Britons!
After stabilizing his mood, Zhao Yun Zhao Yun looked at the map, frowned, and asked, "Didn't you find it?" The team opposite Zhu Xi and Zhu Xi fought for four or five days, and they were repeatedly defeated, and even the entire army was annihilated. But it doesn't take a day for the other party to be able to organize a large-scale attack, you say it's not boring? ”
Hearing Zhao Yun's question, Shao Lao Er shook his head and said with a smile, "There must be a cat greasy, young master, I was also thinking about this before!" If they continue to fight with us like this, the losses are not ordinarily large! ”
"Hehehe," under Shao Laoer's stunned gaze, Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Is it big?" You still haven't seen it, they are "adding fuel tactics"! ”
"Fuel tactics!?"
"They are fighting with us now, Wu Peifu saw that we were well equipped and had good logistics this time, so they fought with us, our weakest point, the personnel. He saw that I had just started out, and Jiangnan had only been in my hands for half a year, and I couldn't really control the entire Jiangnan. At present, there are only two or three teams around me that can fight, and I can count them on my fingers. Now you look at Zhu Xi's team, due to the expansion, the personnel are uneven, and you can also see the combat strength of the first regiment. And the two regiments under Zhu Xi that can fight the most, one of the seventh regiments has lost more than half, and if the other regiment is filled in again, then Zhu Xi's division will be considered useless. Zhao Yun pointed to Zhu Xi's defense area on the map, although the battle has been fierce in the past few days, Zhu Xi's defense area has only decreased slightly compared with before, but the veterans under Zhu Xi have suffered a lot of losses.
Zhao Yun drew along the Yangtze River on the map and said, "As for Zhou Luo's team, it is the same situation, and his situation is even more unfavorable than Zhu Xi's, Suzhou and Changzhou are the focus of defense, and the noodles are too big, it is difficult to focus on defense." If it weren't for the fact that the Tax Police Corps was based in Zhenjiang, it is estimated that Zhou Luo's defense line would have been broken through by now. And we will also be cut in half by the other party, and the end cannot be echoed.
As for my descendants, that is, the children from the original farm, they were firmly nailed to the shore of Taihu Lake by Sun Chuanfang, who came from southern Anhui, and they couldn't move at all, otherwise this Sun Chuanfang would take my nest at the first time. Once the old nest is ended, then there are still a few of the teams under my command who are willing to obey my command from all over southern Jiangsu to help Nanjing. ”
Hearing Zhao Yun's analysis, Shao Lao Er also frowned, this time he was indeed attacked by the enemy.
