Chapter 111: Typical Warlord Battles

The officers in the army quarreled in a group, and in order to preserve the combat effectiveness of their own barracks, they launched an offensive one after another, or personally went to the new barracks to pick people, and prepared to set up a newly established battalion of three steps, four steps, and five battalions. No Wang Maoru saw that these people were bored in Shuangcheng County, so he ordered them to attack separately and suppress the bandits again.

As a result, the six supplementary battalions of the 17th Mixed Brigade stayed behind to train their troops, and the four main battalions scattered and attacked in Shuangcheng County, Wuchang County, Yushu County, Acheng County, Fuyu County, and Dehui County. However, although the crackdown on bandits attracted praise from the people of the surrounding counties, it offended the local Ji army. Meng Enyuan, the overseer of Jilin, was greatly annoyed, this suppression of bandits was originally a matter of the Jilin Army, but he didn't expect the 17th Mixed Brigade to act on behalf of him. He ordered Gao Fengcheng, commander of the 45th Brigade of the Jilin Army Division, to immediately lead his army north and advance into Shuangcheng County, and sent people to warn the 17th Mixed Brigade not to endanger the hài place without authorization.

Originally, Wang Maoru already had a grudge against the previous behavior of the Ji army, and the whole brigade was full of anger against the Ji army. When the 45th Brigade of the Ji Army had just arrived in Yushu County, Wang Maoru ordered to shrink the troops, all the troops returned to Shuangcheng, and sent the cavalry battalion from Wuchang County into Shulan County to go around to the back of the 45th Brigade to be ready to ambush at any time, and all the troops and the base camp headquarters of more than 6,000 troops forced the 45th Brigade.

The departure of the 45th Brigade was originally very hasty, and Meng Enyuan just wanted to teach Wang Maoru a lesson, perhaps the previous lesson was not enough, and this time the entire 45th Brigade was sent to hope to drive away the 17th Mixed Brigade. He knew that the 17th Mixed Brigade was the original border army garrison brigade, and in Meng Enyuan's impression, the border army garrison brigade was not only low in combat effectiveness, but also noisy soldiers, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Wang Maoru, a major general of this army, was sent by Yuan Shikai, Meng Enyuan would have even been ready to annex him.

Because of the light equipment, the artillery supplies of the 45th Brigade were left at the Jilin Prefecture station, Gao Fengcheng only carried the infantry, not even the heavy machine guns, and more than 1,000 people ran over, put on bayonets, and prepared to drive the opponent away with bright bayonets. Originally, they occupied the axioms, this Yushu County garrison is the territory of the Ji army, I will drive you away, you must go, they naturally did not expect that the 17th Mixed Brigade would be waiting for them. Wang Maoru is very simple, since you don't bird me, I don't need to bird you, and I don't think about armed confrontation, since you are yin, don't blame me for being ruthless. The two armies had just lined up, and there were no trenches, standing there facing each other. Gao Fengcheng never thought about removing the oilcloth from the other side, revealing more than 30 heavy machine guns, with the muzzle of the black hole facing him. He hurriedly reassured his subordinates and himself that they would not dare to make a move, and that if there was a war, the War Department would definitely impeach them for a crime of civil war. Before he finished speaking, he saw that the other party actually fired the cannon first, and two shells fell in the middle of the Ji army, killing more than a dozen people in an instant. The momentum of the Ji army was extinguished, Gao Fengcheng was so frightened that he fell off the horse, and the horse was frightened and went crazy, and actually ran away. Poor Gao Fengcheng was still stepping on the stirrup, and was dragged by the frightened war horse and suddenly ran away, and the soldiers of the 45th Brigade behind him were also stunned, and with the help of a few personal horses, they finally rescued the wolf bèi unbearable Gao Fengcheng.

Gao Fengcheng was first frightened by the bombing, and then he was frightened by Crazy Horse and almost died, this errand made him lose face a lot, it seems that the passing year is not good, Gao Fengcheng ordered: "Withdraw the army, withdraw the army." ”

Without waiting for Gao Fengcheng to order a counterattack, he learned that the back road was cut, and the slow-moving artillery of his own house walking behind was intercepted by the cavalry of the people from behind.

After the shelling, they saw that there was a mess on the other side, and the 17th Mixed Brigade was also stunned, what kind of trouble were they going to make? Why is it that there is nothing on my side, and the other side is in chaos? With a wave of his hand, Wang Maoru ordered the first infantry regiment with three supplementary battalions to charge with the help of 10 trucks in a single blow, similar to the Japanese "Banzai Charge", and more than 2,000 soldiers wearing black military uniforms with excited faces also rushed to the 45th Brigade of the Kyrgyzstan Army with a roar of "kill" with a bright three-edged bayonet.

Gao Fengcheng immediately shouted: "Withdraw, withdraw, who brought the information from him, saying that he only has more than 1,000 people, and he has to have tens of thousands, brothers, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, give me the withdrawal" After speaking, he rode away first, and the generals under him were so angry that they immediately slipped away, seeing that the officers had run away, and the soldiers were even more scattered, this was really a defeat. However, the cavalry battalion of the 17th Mixed Brigade of the 45th Brigade was cut off, so it had to turn around and run towards the Songhua River. The 17th mixed brigade here chased, and the 45th brigade fled there, but how could two legs run over four hooves plus truck wheels, and the Ji army was also smart, since the official road couldn't run, let's pick the road that was not easy to run, so we were not ashamed to be captured by all the students.

After the expansion of the 17th Mixed Brigade, a great victory was needed to unite the army and boost its prestige.

This 45th Brigade was not a soft persimmon originally, and it was also considered an elite soldier in a hundred battles in the army outside the Guanwai, but the incompetence of the main general made the army panic, and he ran away first during the war. If it was a real fight, the 17th Mixed Brigade might not be able to do well, and it would definitely have to break a few teeth. This made the soldiers of the 45th Brigade more and more angry as they ran, and finally some of them simply stopped running, squatting on the side of the road with guns and waiting for surrender.

Warlords often rarely kill prisoners in battles between warlords, and occasionally kill prisoners and will be subjected to extreme retaliation afterwards, which is also a characteristic of domestic warlord wars. And the soldiers said that they were working for the commander, and since the commander was gone, it was the same for whoever he gave his life. The soldiers who surrendered, changed their clothes, or changed their numbers, still took so much money, so there is no shame in surrendering. (: There are some exceptions, such as Ningma and Qingma fought against the Han army, and rarely left prisoners, this is not a national internal war, so the killing of Fu is mostly in the war of the alien race)

On the other hand, the 17th Mixed Brigade on the opposite side, guns and artillery, war horses, chasing cars, and morale are all above them, especially the 3,000 new recruits recruited locally, all of whom are strong young men from the Northeast who were born in the local area, and they are seventeen or eighteen years old and hot-blooded, and they are the best at fighting a good battle when they go to the battlefield for the first time. In particular, the pursuit of prisoners does not require much skill and courage at all, and if you can't train your momentum with four or five thousand people, you really have no hope.

On the contrary, Wang Maoru, after the pursuit, fell into deep thought, Meng Enyuan will definitely fight the lawsuit to the War Department, and he should prepare well and find a suitable excuse. Now the only excuse is that the 45th Brigade left the garrison without authorization, and the 17th Mixed Brigade that attacked the northbound garrison was repulsed. Whether he can make good use of this, Wang Maoru is not very sure, and now he only hopes that Yuan Shikai, who is already immersed in the dream of becoming the emperor, in the Beijing government, will be appeased for the sake of overall stability.
