Chapter 15 The people in Xuzhou City are scattered
Chapter 15 After learning that the Qing army had retreated, the people in Xuzhou City were scattered and cold, and they did not dare to pursue, fearing that they had been tricked to lure the enemy. When it was almost dark, it didn't look like a fake retreat, which made a tentative march to Tongshan County.
As a result, not a single shot was fired, and Leng Yu entered Tongshan County. On this, I didn't dare to be careless, and asked the cavalry battalion of the National Defense Army to investigate, but the next morning, I got the news that Zhang Xun in Xuzhou had also withdrawn, and the Qing army on the Suqian side had also withdrawn to Xuzhou, and they had gone clean overnight.
In this way, Leng Shu led his troops into Xuzhou, did not fire a shot, and successfully recovered Xuzhou. At this time, the main force of the Northern Expeditionary Army was still busy building pontoon bridges on the side of the canal. Fortunately, the telegraph office was not damaged, and probably Zhang Xun still wanted to keep it for later use. A telegram returned to Nanjing, and the people in Xuzhou City were scattered in Chapter 15 of Xuzhou's Recovery.
After enjoying the inexplicable fruits of victory, Leng Yu began to reflect. What makes victory so easy? Is it just the strength of one division of your own? That's a bit of. Zhang Xun is probably only afraid of the Wehrmacht.
It's not hard to figure out this truth, so Leng Shu is a little entangled. is also an army, why did the Wehrmacht shoot an artillery, Zhang Xun ran away, and his own soldiers were still shelled? Leng Shu did not have the joy of victory at all, but felt very uncomfortable.
Nanjing didn't care about this, and the hype began. Shanghai is no exception, with newspapers flying all over the sky. Some small newspapers followed behind to join in the fun, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and declared: The Northern Expeditionary Army of the People's Army will take Xuzhou lightly, and Jinan will be down in the near future.
To say that these small newspapers used to be from the professional black league. Suddenly changed direction, and the Shanghai Governor's Office was very uncomfortable.
All in all, as soon as Xuzhou was launched, the Nanjing Provisional Government suddenly gained momentum. The clamor for the Northern Expedition became louder, and Leng Shu destroyed Zhang Xun with one division, and the main force went to Beiyang without even beating down.
Huang Xing, the representative of the main battle faction, was even more excited. Completely forgot about the failure of the Hankow counterattack. High-profile electrification: Xuzhou is restored, the glory of the Northern Expedition, and the glory of the Republic of China's revolution. Chapter 15 The people in Xuzhou City are scattered, and all the monarchs should go north bravely and continue to be brilliant.
The front page of "The Market Hundred States" was reissued, and the front page was "It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord." The squad leader wrote an article praising the victory of the Northern Expeditionary Army in Xuzhou and calling on the people of the whole country to unite. Overthrow the Manchus by force. And not any preferential treatment, because the Manchus did not deserve preferential treatment.
Anyway, this time, the change in the position of "All Kinds of Situations in the Market" seems to be very undisciplined. Nima, who used to be a member of the Professional Black League, suddenly turned to blowing the conch for the provisional government, which was too undisciplined.
The poster community is very disdainful of this newspaper! The remnants of the Liberation Society's carrying sub-Zhang Taiyan. wrote an article scolding the market, saying: This person who watches the wind and looks forward to the situation is really a shame for the domestic press!
A bunch of tabloids followed. The Northern Expedition was too high. The top and bottom of the provisional government were like chickens and blood, and the remeeting of the tripartite talks naturally broke up unhappily.
Zhang Xun rushed to Jinan. Zhang Yongcheng, a family member who is very faceless, said: Your subordinates are all bandits, don't come to Jinan to harm the people. Zhang Xun stomped his feet angrily and scolded, turned around and returned to Jining, and the more than 20 battalions under his command were there. Anyway, he still has more than 10,000 soldiers. The artillery team still has a few guns left, and if they have money in their hands, they can buy it.
Zhang Yongcheng was guarding Jinan, and soon found that there was no movement in the national defense army, and immediately came to the spirit. Nima, Lao Tzu can't beat Fang Jianxiong, and he can't beat the rabble of the people's army? Well, there is also a Zhang Xun in Jining.
The tripartite talks lasted three consecutive days of meetings, and three consecutive days of quarrels were fruitless. In the end, Wu Tingfang directly announced that he would withdraw from the negotiations. This is the confidence to win on the battlefield. Well, there is also good news, the negotiations with the "Japan" are nearing the final end, and the concession of Manchuria in exchange for a secret agreement of 20 million yen is about to be reached.
So, the Provisional Government is now very confident, and Huā is very rich. Another batch of arms was procured from the National Defence Forces, valued at more than one million. Fang Jianxiong was also very happy, of course he was very happy to exchange the equipment that he had changed into real money.
History was completely messed up by Fang Jianxiong, and the Qing room, which originally announced his abdication on February 12, has now been erected. There are no preferential conditions, the Qing family is reluctant to issue the edict at the end, and Yuan Shikai is also anxious. Isn't it just a bunch of people's parties? Can't beat Fang Jianxiong, can't beat them? Immediately summon Cao Kun, don't stay in the capital, hurry up to Jinan, cooperate with the Fifth Town, and clean up the Kuomintang who don't know the height of the sky.
The order was strict, and Cao Kun, who had not been leading his troops back to Beijing for a long time, did not dare to disobey the order, so he had to let Wu Peifu, the standard commander, lead his troops to set off, and the meaning was fine. The fifth town is not made of mud, but it is the elite of Beiyang, guarding Jinan City, and it can also fight a dozen.
The Provisional Government's Northern Expedition was a great victory, and naturally it was out of control. Huang Xing, the commander of the army, crossed the river overnight, got on the train from Pukou, and led Li Liejun's troops to the north, and went to Xuzhou, the forefront of the Northern Expedition, to guide the Northern Expedition.
A heavy snowfall suddenly came, and the land of northern Jiangsu suddenly became a northern country.
With the stationing of the main force of the Northern Expeditionary Army, Leng Shu, the acting commander of the city defense, also took the initiative to step down, and it was rare to be idle. Back at the station, the two battalion commanders of the Wehrmacht were waiting, and they greeted them warmly, and these two had come to say goodbye. Despite the wind and snow, Leng Shu personally sent the two of them on the train, and when the train went away, Master Leng's affection quickly declined.
How to say it, Xuzhou was laid, and they also completed the task. As the hero of the recovery of Xuzhou, although Leng Shu was very much used by Sun and Huang Zhi in Nanjing, some comrades within the Northern Expeditionary Army still questioned the good luck of Commander Leng. Some people even said that there was still the Wehrmacht in the cold department.
This kind of inner sprout makes Leng Shu feel cold. Sun Yue, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expeditionary Army, had no intention of stopping these phenomena, but repeatedly urged the cold army to replenish the main logistics on the spot. In addition to being cold, he proposed to step down from the post of city defense commander.
For Leng Shu's good luck, the Northern Expedition Right Route Army did have a lot of strange words. In the past, everyone had a good relationship, but Leng Shu entered Xuzhou one step first, and then met some people to talk.
The snow was falling all over the sky, and the cold boat of the slow return journey was difficult to calm down when I saw the ruins on both sides of the road. The help of the two battalions of the Wehrmacht, after the Northern Expeditionary Army converged, they didn't even mention it, which was really chilling.
The Wehrmacht did not complain at all, and they withdrew when they said they were withdrawn, which added to Leng Shu's guilt.
"Brother Yuqiu!" A greeting interrupted Leng Shu's distraction, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that it was Tang Zhidao, chief of staff of the Shanghai Army, who was standing on the side of the road to greet him. Leng Shu turned over and dismounted, and walked quickly. The two have a bit of a friendship and have known each other since they were in Tokyo.
The way of the Tang Dynasty is known to be talented, and the Shanghai army can be formed and sent out of the Northern Expedition, which is from the handwriting of this gentleman. Otherwise, it will rely on those local party members, a messy bunch of division commanders and regimental commanders, and the kind with few guns under them, and the Northern Expedition is a fart.
"Why is Brother Runfu here?" Leng Shu stepped forward to speak, Tang Zhidao pointed to a tavern behind him, stomped his feet and said with a smile: "Brother Yuqiu, this ghost weather, go in and have two drinks, I just have something to know from you." ”
Leng Shu was not polite, the two entered the tavern, asked for a private seat, and closed the door to drink. After three glasses of hot wine, Tang Zhidao smiled and said, "Brother Yuqiu, how do you feel when you come into contact with the Wehrmacht?" ”
"Feelings? How else can it feel? The Wehrmacht is a regular army, and the 3rd Division is Caokou. Leng Shu shook his head with a helpless wry smile, Tang Zhidao couldn't help but groan when he heard it, and said for a long time: "There are too many factions within the people's army, and there is endless infighting. He is the busiest person in the Shanghai army, but unfortunately he is also the least entertaining person. The army entered Xuzhou, and they were busy buying belongings. No, Brother Yuqiu's city defense commander, it's in the way, isn't it? ”
This is something to say, Leng Shu didn't answer, Tang Zhidao continued to talk to himself: "Don't be afraid of Brother Yuqiu's jokes, I have plans to leave." "The way of the Tang Dynasty in history can be described as obscure, because he later joined the Beiyang, but he was not allowed to reuse, and was finally lost in history. In fact, this man was very skilled in military affairs.
Leng Shu didn't know what to say, so he had to continue to pretend to be dumb. In the end, Tang Zhidao said: "I have submitted my resignation to Chen Dudu, and I will take off my military uniform and return to my hometown in Henan in a few days." ”
Leng Shu was a kind person after all, and couldn't help but say, "Why is this so? Lord Xu is in Bengbu, so it's better to vote for him. ”
Tang Zhidao smiled bitterly: "When Lin Huaichuan went to Hanyang, he also said cool words, how can he have the face to go?" I'd like to go north and see if there's a chance. ”
"Beiyang is gloomy, and it may not be reused. The National Defense Force under Fang Fuguo is in short supply. The Wehrmacht is full of vigor and internal unity, and with the talent of Brother Runfu, he is not afraid that he will be useless. Li Xiaochuan and Lin Huaichuan are now division commanders, and they have ten thousand tigers under their command. It is rumored that Fang Fuguo excludes the Japanese students, which is not credible. ”
Tang Zhidao smiled slightly, didn't mention it anymore, and shifted: "Don't talk about this, drink, drink." ”
The north wind rolls up the snow wildly, and there is a faction in the Xuzhou Railway Station, with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. Huang Xing, the commander-in-chief of the army of the provisional government, arrived, and the commander-in-chief, Sun Yue, led a group of generals of the Northern Expedition to greet him at the railway station.
The car door opened, Huang Xing, dressed in military uniform, appeared, and the military band immediately played.
Huang Xing greeted the greeting people and waited for some greetings, and then Li Liejun, who followed down, also changed his depression of losing Jiangxi and followed behind in high spirits. When he walked up to Leng Shu, Huang Xing's handshake increased.
"Yuqiu, well done!" Huang Xing praised it, and Leng Shu hesitated a little and said: "Xuzhou went down without a fight, not my own work, but Zhang Xun's fear of the might of the National Defense Army." Leng Yu is only favored by others, and he does not dare to take credit. ”
Huang Xing's smile stiffened, and he laughed dryly.
When he left the station, Li Liejun walked to Leng Shu's side and said in a low voice: "Brother Yuqiu, how do you speak?" ”
Leng Shu glanced at him, saw that he was uncertain, and said lightly: "I'm telling the truth." (To be continued!!
