Chapter 142: The Capture of Two Overseers
Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau Longhua Arsenal, Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Beiyang Manufacturing Bureau are the products of the Westernization Movement, which is the largest military industrial enterprise in China established in the Qing Dynasty and one of the largest arsenals in China during the Republic of China.
After receiving the order to send troops from the War Department, Yang Shande, the military envoy, and Lu Yongxiang, the deputy military envoy, studied the issue of sending troops in their offices.
Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang are more famous warlords in later generations, both have been Zhejiang overseers, Yang Shande will enter Hangzhou in November this year, and was later appointed as the Zhejiang overseer, Lu Yongxiang became a genuine Songhu military envoy, after Yang Shande's death in 1919, Lu Yongxiang followed closely to become the Zhejiang overseer. In fact, speaking of which, the three troops that sent troops to attack Guo Yu, all the family members ended up being the overseers of a province in the Republic of China. Chen Tiaoyuan was appointed overseer of Anhui in 1923 and governor of Zhejiang in 1916. Coupled with Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, this is the town guard envoy of the four overseers besieging Guo Yu.
"Brother Zijia, the military order of the War Department has been issued, you turn around and order the entire 10th Division to mobilize, and attack Suzhou in two days. Now let's analyze the form of Suzhou. "Because Yang Shande is a few years younger than Lu Yongxiang, he is usually called Brother Zijia.
"Overseer, you and I have not been in contact with this Guo Yu, but this person will always put on a show, do charity everywhere, and call himself a philanthropist, and now because he is dissatisfied with the government's order and openly rebelled, declaring the independence of Suzhou, it is really ridiculous, a small town guard also dares to do this, he does not occupy any righteous name, how dare to do this, it is really irrational people, it is estimated that his Huafu army is a group of local chickens and dogs are vulnerable. So I think it won't take too long for us to defeat Guo Yu this time. Lu Yongxiang looked down on Guo Yu a little, after all, how could they, professional soldiers who had been soldiers for decades, care about Guo Yu who had only been a soldier for a few days.
"But don't be careful, he has forty or fifty thousand guns, this battle is difficult to say, I think it's better to be fully prepared, you personally go to the officers of each regiment, let the staff make a battle plan, be sure not to make any mistakes." Yang Shande still said what he said, and Lu Yongxiang was ordered to arrange the work.
Two days later, the 10th Division of the Republic of China Army set out from Shanghai and fought directly along the main road in the direction of Suzhou. Shanghai is only more than 160 miles away from Suzhou in a straight line, the 10th Division marched on foot, originally planned to walk 100 miles that day, but when they reached 80 miles, the soldiers shouted tired and asked the commander to rest, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang received a report from the officers below, seeing that it was almost dusk, they had to camp on the spot and prepare to continue to set off early the next morning.
The 10th Division is a full division, with a number of about 23,000 people, but there are only less than half of the veterans, after all, Yang Shande has only been the envoy of Songhu for more than half a year, and the 10th Division is also newly formed, and can only recruit people from the people, but how can they have Guo Yu's financial and material resources, it is impossible to recruit all of them for a while, this is only a month ago to recruit people, and some soldiers have not yet kept up with their training, and now they can only follow the charge with a gun, as for the combat effectiveness or something, don't count on it.
As night fell, the camp had already set up pots for cooking, and curling smoke was rising, and Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang were still in the tent, studying the map with kerosene lamps on their heads, to see where Guo Yu had set up a defensive position, and where was the battlefield where it was possible to engage in battle. At this time, the guard walked in and brought in a plate of food, four dishes, one soup and one plate of steamed buns. And the soldiers outside can only eat pickles, steamed buns, and vegetable leaf soup.
Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang were having dinner when they heard someone outside, "Who is there?" "It's a guard questioning.
"I'm Zou Renping from the Third Regiment, and I'm here to send a message to the division commander." A male voice said.
"Then you give me the text, and I'll send it to you." The guard said.
"Okay, here's for you." After this person finished speaking, there was no sound outside, and Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang didn't care at first, after all, there were a large number of troops below, and it was normal to report the news to Jiàn, but after the two of them finished talking, the guards suddenly lost their voices, and they didn't see the guards come in.
The two of them looked at each other, both of them were a little puzzled, but they didn't think about anything else, after all, their tent was basically in the middle of the troops, and it was impossible for the enemy to kill them.
At this moment, the tent door curtain was raised, and two soldiers wearing the uniforms of the 10th Division came in, and after the two came in, they did not make a sound, and walked straight to Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, Lu Yongxiang found that the situation was a little wrong at this time, and asked loudly: "Who are you and which part are you?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw one of the soldiers directly go up with a knife and slash Lu Yongxiang unconscious, Yang Shande just wanted to make a sound, only to feel dizzy in his head, and he lost consciousness directly.
Then two more people came in from outside the tent, and the four of them tied up the two generals, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, like pigs, gagged them and carried them to the truck outside, and then drove all the way out of the barracks. At this time, there were still many soldiers on the side of the road who did not set up tents at all, and fell directly to sleep in the earthen nests on the side of the road, and they were not surprised to see the car passing by, but they were envious that these officials were really free, and they didn't know where to eat and drink.
The truck drove for twenty minutes and drove into a small wood, which is where the front headquarters of the first division of the Huafu Army is located, and at this time the first division has all been dispatched, digging trenches and blocking the way of the 10th division of the Republic of China, as long as the fire is received tomorrow, a tragic battle will be launched, but as the division commander Wu Erzhu is from the special forces after all, and several people under him have a whim, so there was a scene just now, and a beheading operation came directly, and the two supreme commanders of the enemy were captured.
This operation was completed by the First Brigade of the Special Operations Team, and now Wu Erzhu is already the division commander after all, so it is not good to risk his own life, so he can only watch his men do this task with greed, and when they saw the truck driving into the headquarters of the First Division, Wu Erzhu and a group of other sub-officers knew that eighty percent of them were done.
Chu Dongdong, the captain of the first brigade of the special combat team, jumped out of the car excitedly, walked quickly to Wu Erzhu and the others who were standing by the tent and said, "Captain, grab the two senior officials, you go and have a look." The tone of his voice was full of excitement.
Wu Erzhu walked quickly to the side of the truck, lifted the tarpaulin curtain, and the guards on the side took out a flashlight and took a photo, and found that there were still many people lying in the car body. He grinned when he said that.
Wu Erzhu took a look at the lightlight, the others were ordinary soldiers' uniforms, but two of them were wearing senior officer uniforms, and the collar badges on their shoulders were obviously hung with two gold stars, which was the rank of lieutenant general of the Republic of China, and there were only two people in the 10th Division of the enemy opposite who could hang this kind of military rank, that is, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, I saw that these two people were forty or fifty years old, plus the military uniforms on their bodies, this is not necessary, it must be Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, there is no doubt that this time it is really lucky, Unexpectedly, let his special combat team do such a big thing, this is a direct capture of the opponent's supreme commander, so do you still need to fight this battle, thinking of this, Wu Erzhu smiled, and then said to Chu Dongdong: "You bastard, these two are lieutenant generals, you just tied them up like this, and gave people a four-horse upside down hooves, what is your gag thing, how do you look pitch black." ”
Chu Dongdong scratched his head and smiled: "It seems to be a tablecloth in their tent." ”
At this time, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang, who were lying in the carriage, only had grief and indignation left in their hearts, what is this called, they brought tens of thousands of horses to fight with each other, and they have not seen the other party's figure, and their own commander was captured by others, and since the establishment of the entire Republic of China, no such thing has happened, which makes him face those colleagues and subordinates in the future.
Besides, now they are still tied up like animals, thrown in the carriage, the bumps along the way, so that these two people who are not young and pampered all the year round can not stand it, at this time it is really dizzy and sore, coupled with the feeling of shame and indignation, the heart of wanting to die is there, it is better to faint, and the province will be insulted by the other party when awake.
Wu Erzhu didn't mean to insult the other party, after all, these two people are also lieutenant generals. Let the soldiers carry the two out of the car, untie the rope and take out the gag to wipe the tablecloth, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang took out the gag and coughed dryly for a while, it seems that the road is not light, "Two generals, it is rude to invite the two of you in this way, but since you are here, please go in and sit down and talk." ”
Now Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang have nothing to do, they can only approach the battlefield tent, they only saw a big table in the middle of the tent, many people around the table are recording and analyzing something, it seems that it should be staff officers, on the side of the tent is a row of telegraph machines and incomprehensible communication instruments, there are many communication soldiers busy over there, through the staff and the communications department and then go inside is a stand table and a circle of stand back chairs, the back of the tent cloth hung a map, look at the content of the map should be a map of Jiangsu, However, this map is obviously much more detailed and clear than the military map issued by the War Department of the Republic of China.
Seeing this, Yang Shande and Lu Yongxiang made eye contact, both of them saw surprise and worry in each other's eyes, surprised that the command system of the Huafu Army was so perfect, these two people are also well-informed people, and they know that there are not many foreign armies that have such battles now, and Guo Yu's Huafu Army is still a local protection force, and it has not been ranked into the army sequence of the Republic of China at all, and can only be equivalent to the local militia level.
Worried that the military headquarters of Huafu Army is so strict, plus the two of them were inexplicably arrested, it seems that the combat ability of other soldiers is also extraordinary, and the consequences of their own army fighting with others are really worrying, it seems that they and others really underestimated Huafu Army and underestimated Guo Yu before.
