Chapter 618: Huayong Camp (I)
When the Taiwanese army in Tianjin was transferred from two armies, the pressure on Tianjin's defense suddenly fell on Feng Wentian, the commander of the provisional Third Army, who was originally the deputy chief of the general staff of the General Staff, and now he came here to directly take charge of an army, which was a test for him. If he can pass this test, then it is inevitable that he will become a military commander next. If he can't be a good commander, then his next future is probably over, and he may be transferred back to the General Staff as a department chief of a second-level department, which is tantamount to a demotion. In addition, it is difficult for the department chief of the second-level department to be promoted, because according to the promotion path that Wang Guorui planned for everyone before, generally speaking, the chief of the general staff will not be produced from within the general staff, and the deputy chief of the general staff has almost no possibility of being corrected, and he must be the commander of a military region before he can find a chance to come back as the chief of the general staff. This is the same as the principle of the chief of staff of the navy, and the chief of staff of the navy is also produced by the commanders of the major fleets, and will not be easily corrected from the deputy position.
If Feng Wentian wants to continue to be promoted, he will inevitably have to be a good army commander, and then he can seek the position of commander of a military region, and then he will be qualified to compete for a more senior position, such as the chief of the general staff or the top-ranked departments in the major military departments, especially those department commanders who can enter the Military Commission. At present, only the top leaders of the General Staff Department and the General Political Department in Taiwan, as well as the chief of staff of the Navy, can enter the Central Military Commission, and the chairman of the Military Commission is Wang Guorui, and the director of the General Political Department is his wife Zheng Hong, so any military affairs are just discussed with them. Wang Guorui himself can control most of the forces in the Military Commission, and he can also influence Hu Wei. And Qiu Baoren, the new chief of staff of the Navy, didn't dare to let go of a fart after Wang Guorui took out Ye Zuqi to kill chickens and monkeys.
But Wang Guorui also promised that once he ascended the throne and became emperor. The expansion of the military council is certain. At that time, the number of members of the Military Council will be expanded from the current four to ten. If he can have the opportunity to enter the military committee, it means entering the highest organ of the army, so Feng Wentian is also very excited. Even if it's just a place, it also represents the power of one vote, and many people have been competing for this power for a long time. It's not that easy to get at all.
"Everyone has guarded the defense line for me, and now although the provisional first army and the provisional second army are gone, but then our temporary third army must also pick up the big beam, so that we can gain the trust of Lord Wang. We must not let these foreign devils attack us. Feng Wentian shouted.
However, in the forward position of the provisional Third Army, there was an army wearing a kind of military uniform that the Taiwanese army had never seen before, and they came from a distance carrying a flag.
"Company commander, what banner are they carrying?" Immediately a soldier asked.
"What? They actually held up the words 'We are also Chinese'. The company commander said.
"They came from the army of foreigners. What should we do? The soldier asked.
The company commander immediately took it for granted and said: "Since they are holding the banner that they are also Chinese, and they are also Chinese, then they should want to surrender." And then we all welcome them! After all, they are our compatriots, and they can be regarded as welcoming our compatriots. ”
"General, we are all Chinese too! General, we are all Chinese!! The group of yellow people shouted in Chinese.
"Who are you? Let your leaders come here! The company commander shouted.
"Good, good!"
The leader of the Chinese in strange uniforms came over immediately, and the company commander was defenseless. Because he thought that these people had come to surrender, or that some ordinary people had been forcibly caught by foreigners and became soldiers. And Wang Guorui has also said it before. For the Chinese on the mainland, or those old armies such as the Green Battalion, the New Army, and the Eight Banners, we must also be polite and not directly discriminate against them. Their weakness is not entirely their responsibility, this is the reason for the entire country's social structure, military system, and military ideology, and one person cannot be blamed alone. So they are all willing to come. Then Wang Guorui must also discriminate against them. And the troops below are also more comfortable with those Chinese troops, because they simply cannot have such a strong fighting force.
The bloodiness of the Green Camp and the Eight Banners has long been exhausted, so Wang Guorui's Taiwanese army will not be afraid of these troops at all, and they all choose to believe in these people. He thought that these people were the army of the mainland.
"General, we are from the Huayong Battalion!" The leader said.
"Huayong's?" The company commander had apparently not heard of this unit. He couldn't remember that there was any army on the mainland that was the Huayong Battalion.
"Smack!"
With two gunshots, the company commander suddenly felt like a hammer blow to his chest, and then blood rushed out of his chest. The man on the other side, who claimed to be from the Huayong Battalion, had a pistol in his hand, and smoke was still coming from the muzzle.
"Brothers, the British are not kind to us, now we hurry up and repay the British!" The leading Huayong battalion officer immediately shouted.
"Rush!"
Hundreds of soldiers of the Huayong battalion immediately rushed to the front of the company's guarding position, and the company commander of the company guarding the position had just been killed by the people of the Huayong battalion, and then the company was not prepared at all, and the position was quickly breached.
"Brothers, follow me!"
Hundreds of Huayong battalions rushed into the trenches, and then engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Taiwanese army.
"Damn, who are they?" Immediately a soldier scolded.
The company commander was killed by a sneak attack just now, and the company suddenly lost its commander, and some of them began to fight on their own. In addition, the enemies of the Huayong battalion suddenly rushed into the trench, and they didn't have much experience in this trench at all, and they didn't have much experience in hand-to-hand combat, which made them all very weak.
"Huayong Battalion, rush me!" Suddenly, a big foreign nose began to shout, and then ordered his Chinese soldiers to start charging.
"Rush!"
More than a thousand men in special uniforms, with braids clearly on the back of their heads, poured into the company's defenses. And that gap had been opened, and those troops were entangled in hand-to-hand combat with cold weapons by the advance team of the hundreds of Huayong battalions, and there was no way to defend them.
Hesitation was transferred by two corps, so the pressure on the defensive line of the remaining provisional Third Army suddenly tripled. The reason for this result is that in addition to the fact that these people in the Huayong battalion used the identity of the so-called "Chinese" to deceive the trust of the company commander, there is another important reason, that is, these soldiers have not been able to adapt to the wider defense line in time. And this line of defense inevitably has certain loopholes, coupled with the fact that those Qing troops used cold weapons to fight closely, so that those soldiers who are used to long-range combat with firearms are not suitable at all.
"Dangdangdang......"
When a company of the Taiwan armed forces lost the command of the company commander, the deputy company commander took over the command. However, the soldiers of the Huayong Battalion also chose to fight with cold weapons one by one, which happened to hit the soft underbelly of the Taiwan army, so that they all suddenly lost their local advantages.
"Retreat, blow up the traffic trenches! Blow up all the traffic trenches and don't let them break through to the rear! The deputy company commander shouted.
Soon, the company's troops immediately began to retreat, but as soon as they retreated, they detonated the explosives next to the trench, causing it to be blown up. And in this way, those soldiers of the Huayong Battalion could not continue to break through.
"Damn, the Huayong Battalion didn't be able to break through in time!" Bauer said angrily.
The British Colonel Bauer also thought that they could break through these positions in time, and they could use the characteristics of the Chinese to deceive an opportunity to sneak attack, so that they could also take the opportunity to break through. However, when the company retreated, it actually blew up the communication trench, so that they could not break through quickly.
At the military headquarters, Feng Wentian immediately said angrily: "Damn, immediately order the artillery, block the retreat of these Huayong battalion troops, and then mobilize a large force to encircle them." His grandmother's actually used such despicable and shameless means to attack, and there was a large group of traitors, which is really unreasonable. These traitors, I definitely can't let them go easily this time. ”
"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"
The artillery immediately began to secretly bombard the rear of the original position, completely blocking the retreating positions of the Huayong battalion.
"Colonel Bauer, our rear is already blocked by enemy artillery!" An interpreter said.
And Bauer immediately said angrily: "These Chinese really look up to us? An artillery regiment was actually sent to block our retreat. ”
"Immediately order the nearby troops, turn their guns on them, and prepare to encircle them!" Feng Wentian shouted.
"Order the artillery regiment directly under the army to prepare, ready to bomb the lost position just now into a scorched earth at any time, no matter how big the price I spend this time, then I will also make them pay the price of these traitors!" Feng Wentian said angrily.
"Yes!" The communications staff officer next to him shouted.
And Feng Wentian said viciously: "Huayong Battalion, these traitors." The one we hate the most is the traitor, and Lord Wang also said that the traitor is the most hateful, and sometimes, he is more hateful and hateful than the invader. If there weren't so many traitors in China's history, then where would there be so much foreign aggression? If there were no traitors, how could the Manchus enter the Central Plains? Therefore, the traitor is actually the most hateful guy, the one who has an unforgivable sin. (To be continued.) )
