Chapter 146: The Battle of the Jinghan Line (2)

Wang Tianzong in history can be described as a man of the hour, Fang Jianxiong of this space stirred up, many things went to distort the original westward and then moved to the Central Plains, and even Nanyang City was beaten down by Wang Tianzong.

Wang Tianzong, a bandit who was in the limelight, asked someone to teach him a lesson today. The bandits were originally masters of hiding their heads and tails, and today they all walked into the ambush circle of others, and they didn't even notice it at all, which made Wang Tianzong not surprised. If it was really for him, all ten heads would have moved.

When Wang Tianzhong was shocked in his heart, the faces of the subordinates around him were ugly, and this face was not ordinarily big. It has always been them who beat other people's ambushes and knocked other people's stuffy sticks. Today fell on my head.

Looking around, it was all flat ground, and I couldn't see anyone in ambush. There was also a light rain yesterday, and the fields on both sides were wet, how did these people hide?

Just when he was confused, dozens of small dirt bags on both sides of the road changed, and dozens of people stood up one after another. The faces of these people were painted like ghosts, and each of them wore a mottled earth-colored cape with a hat, and the guy in his hand was also quite special. Isn't this dress just a dirt bag when you lie on the ground? The problem is that on such a wet ground, these soldiers can lie still on their stomachs, or even hold their breath, which is not simple, even terrifying.

The muzzles of dozens of people were pointed at Wang Tianzong and the others, and a soldier came up and asked: "Was it invited by the regiment commander?" ”

Wang Tianzong nodded and said, "Exactly, an hour ago, I saw Regiment Commander Leng at the gate of the city headquarters. ”

The soldier nodded and said, "That's right." The head of the regiment has indeed entered the city, you wait, I'll go and report it. As he spoke, he turned and ran forward to a sentry three hundred meters ahead. Not for a while. The soldier came back and said, "All the weapons are left in the clips, and people can go in." ”

Wang Tianzong and his subordinates looked uncertain, and a few of them had bad tempers, and they also showed anger. The soldier seemed to know their thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we can't look down on these guys in your hands." Saying that, the guy who raised his hand smiled and said, "Have you ever seen this, this is called a submachine gun!" We all use this! ”

Although a little unconvinced. Wang Tianzong and his party still walked to the camp, and when they arrived at the outpost, they handed over their weapons, these guys were not bad, all of them were self-made.

All the way inside. Wang Tianzong secretly said that Leng Yu really didn't lie to him, the camp was being cleaned up, and it was indeed time to set off. The soldier was brought to the headquarters, and Leng Yu was teaching in the headquarters: "No, I won't be able to speak Henan dialect for me." Don't compare myself to me, I'm a commander, I have to be with my brothers. Alright, let's go back and prepare. "Between words. Like a duck, he drove his battalion commander and company commander out.

Seeing Wang Tianzong, Leng Yu nodded casually. As if he was a very familiar friend, he greeted, "Come, brothers, come in and sit." "The bandits sat down. The orderly brought white water, and Leng Yu said with a smile: "There is not so much attention to being a soldier outside, so everyone will just take a look." ”

Wang Tianzong didn't have anything, and many of his subordinates were attracted by the enamel jar in their hands, and said in surprise: "This jar doesn't look ordinary." ”

Leng Yu laughed and said, "This jar is currently only for the army, and there is no land to buy it locally for the time being." The main thing is that the output can't keep up, and it will be fine in two years. ”

Wang Tianzong pretended to be in his heart, and felt that the Anhui Revolutionary Army was too different from the Alliance. The people of the alliance are all neat, and the commander is like he doesn't want money, and he is pouring good words on water. Let provide money, food, guns and ammunition, a big son does not. Wang Tianzong wanted to see what the attitude of this Leng Regiment Leader was, so he said with a straight face: "Leng Regiment Chief, we have no problem following this transaction to the end, I still have thousands of brothers under my command, how do you plan to send it out?" ”

Leng Yu crooked his mouth disdainfully: "It's not that I speak badly, it's just a group of rabble." You are not in a hurry to get angry, listen to me after I finish speaking. Leng Yu saw that the bandits' faces were ugly, and he continued without changing color: "Most of the soldiers of the Anhui Revolutionary Army are from bandits. As far as my spy group is concerned, eighty percent of them are brothers who have fallen into the grass. Neither the Anhui army nor I personally have any intention of despising the Lvlin brothers. But since it's an army, you have to pay attention to it. First of all, I had to finish the deal, and then I personally took Brother Wang to meet the handsome. As for the whereabouts of the thousands of brothers, according to the habits of the commander, those under the age of sixteen, over thirty, those who smoke a lot, and those who are not in good health must be dismissed, and each person should be able to get ten yuan of the Great Ocean Road fare. Willing to go to Wuhu to find a job, the team can open a letter of introduction, and if you go, you are not afraid that there will be no place to work hard to get food and clothing. The rest of the brothers will definitely have to undergo a period of formal training before changing their equipment. The Anhui Army stresses the unity of equipment in order to reduce logistical pressure. You will understand these things later. Don't talk nonsense, I'm willing to do it, nod now, lead the way for my secret service, and we'll go behind enemy lines to turn him upside down. ”

A group of bandits patiently listened to it and felt much more comfortable, and one of the bandits blurted out: "The realm of feelings is a pole!" ”

Wang Tianzong hurriedly glared at this guy, don't look at Leng Yu's politeness, when he mentioned the combat strength of thousands of bandits, that disdain was from the heart. Leng Yu smiled and said: "That's pretty much what it means, but the revolutionary army has big rules and strict military discipline." For the brothers, it takes a while to get used to. The advantage is that after joining the revolutionary army, the family will have no worries about life in the future, and there will be people to treat the disabled on the battlefield, and the team will take care of the injured and disabled. ”

In the general army, it is luck to be able to mix more than a dozen oceans to get rid of it after being disabled. I didn't expect the Anhui Revolutionary Army to take care of this, Wang Tianzong felt refreshed and said: "How much money is paid by the team, will it be deducted?" ”

These questions are all about everyone's concern, and Wang Tianzong is a little worried about the cold rain. I didn't want Leng Yu to hear this, touched my neck and said: "I want to deduct it, I don't dare to do it first, I will be shot immediately if I am found out, no matter what identity it is, it is useless for anyone to intercede." Second, there is a special logistics department in charge of this military salary and military quartermaster, and I can't reach it. Third, I, the head of the regiment, have a salary of one hundred and fifteen dollars a month, which is enough for me to waste. The soldiers were divided into the first and second classes, with the first class being paid ten pieces of silver and the second class being eight pieces. If you do a good job, you can mix with the supervisor, congratulations, you can get a job allowance. The deputy squad leader has two yuan and the positive one is five, and the bigger the official, the more subsidies. Officers who retire due to injuries can choose to return to the local area to serve as officials, or they can choose to stay in the invalids in the army, or they can choose to go to the factory to manage the security team. ”

Wang Tianzong listened to the call for a fresh, the future of the brothers was settled, and he didn't bother to ask about his own affairs, so he immediately stood up and said: "Okay, I followed the Anhui Revolutionary Army." ”

Fang Jianxiong brazenly announced the launch of an attack on the Jinghan line, and the British finally reacted on the 18th. On behalf of the British diplomatic department, Zhu Erdian announced that the mouth of the Yangtze River would be blocked and a single piece of arms would be prohibited from entering the Yangtze River. With regard to Fang Jianxiong himself and his Anhui Revolutionary Army, the attitude of the British was that if they dared to violate the interests of the British Empire, they would be subjected to the most ruthless attacks and retaliation.

The attitude of the British government is very interesting. Four cruisers and destroyers of the British Far East Fleet began to patrol Wusongkou, and the British consul in Shanghai, Farres, formed a "Volunteers of All Nations" to occupy the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway and embargo arms.

However, for the time being, this association did not have much impact on the actual interests of the Anhui army. This reaction also quieted down some voices within the Anhui Revolutionary Army a lot.

As Fang Jianxiong predicted, it is certainly unrealistic for the British government to send a large army to China. A few warships were just scaring people, and the warships could not go ashore.

In Hanyang, the Anhui army is making final preparations before the war, and a freighter from Wuhu brings good news. Giosten personally escorted the shipload of munitions, and when he landed on the shore, he saw Fang Jianxiong waiting on the shore, and immediately became excited.

Fang Jianxiong was more excited than Ge Austen, and he casually threw a Type 55 120mm mortar drawing to Ge Austen, but he didn't expect it to be really made. Although there are only 20 gates, it means that the military production in Wuhu has reached a new level. This kind of republican ** team belongs to the support artillery, and Fang Jianxiong didn't have much hope of making it at first. After more than half a year, I didn't expect to suddenly receive a telegram from Wuhu, and 20 samples were built, which could be put into actual combat after passing the test firing quality.

Fang Jianxiong immediately asked Ge Austen to send the sample, this thing is definitely a big killer in the regimental artillery series in this year.

GiAustin almost ran off the boat, staggering to the point where people feared he was going to fall. GiAusten couldn't help but be excited, according to the original agreement, he could get a 10% profit commission if this kind of concoction was made.

"Good work!" Fang Jianxiong warmly shook Ge Austen's hands, and after a polite remark, the twenty wooden boxes on the ship began to move down. Wait for the carriage to be loaded and pulled away.

On the dock, Austen reported on the situation of military production during this period, and the manufacturing bureaus in Shanghai and Nanjing were producing ammunition at full capacity, and the production of firearms was concentrated in Wuhu. Luckily, before the British blockade, 20 million nine-pointed shells, 5,000 large-caliber shells, and 12,000 75-caliber shells were shipped.

When Fang Jianxiong expressed satisfaction with Giusten's work, a scolding voice came: "Stop! ”

Fang Jianxiong, who was alarmed, glanced at the place where the voice came from, and it was actually the Yin family sisters who came down from the boat with a group of people and were stopped by the guards. Fang Jianxiong looked at Austen, and this one quickly explained: "They arrived in Wuhu the day before yesterday, and they must follow the fleet to Hanyang." "Wuhu is currently in charge of Zhu Xiufeng, a good old man, and directly threw these people on the boat and sent them together.

"Brother Fang, let's bring the death squad to help you!" Yin Weijun shouted from afar, and Fang Jianxiong smiled at her when he heard it. (Your support on this site is my biggest motivation.) )
