Chapter Twenty-Seven: Besieged Again
The news of the loss of Nanchang City reached Chiang Kai-shek's ears like wings, and then various discussions appeared, Chiang Kai-shek had made a huge mistake in the siege of Wuchang City, and did not take Wuchang City for a month, which made Chiang Kai-shek feel very annoyed.
As soon as Chiang Kai-shek went out the next day, he saw neat flags on the street, black and pressed students, and there were only four words on the flag in his hand, "Kill Wang Boling." ”
Not only Wang Boling, but even Sun Yuanliang and Chiang Kai-shek have the urge to kill, but can this solve the problem? Of course, Chiang Kai-shek was in desperate need of a big victory to salvage his reputation.
"Liu Yuan is there now?" Chiang Kai-shek gritted his teeth and turned to Jiang Xianyun and asked. After Jiang Xianyun returned to the front, Chiang Kai-shek did not let him enter the Third Division, but let him serve as a staff officer in his attendant room, Liu Yuan also thought that Chiang Kai-shek could not live without his own people, so Jiang Xianyun was left by Chiang Kai-shek's side.
Although this is beneficial to the third division, it also makes Jiang Xianyun controversial, and many CPs have a lot of opinions about Jiang Xianyun, but Jiang Xianyun doesn't look at them.
"Fuguo, now occupy the Niuhang station, and at the same time gather the remnants of the army, ready to break through at any time." Jiang Xianyun thought about the telegram he had just read, pointed to the map and explained to Chiang Kai-shek.
"Cheng Qian is incompetent, Niu Xing and Nanchang are each other's horns, and he actually lost Nanchang, which shows how incompetent he is as a military commander." Chiang Kai-shek also had a certain vision, and he saw the importance of cattle at a glance.
"Headmaster, the auxiliary country is now surrounded by heavy troops, and Sun Chuanfang's wise general Wang Yuanyi has mobilized 50,000 heavy troops to surround Niu Xing, and there is a danger of attacking Niu Xing at any time." Jiang Xianyun said with an anxious voice.
Chiang Kai-shek understood what 50,000 people meant, and besides, unlike Nanchang, there was no terrain to take advantage of. Hurriedly walked around the headquarters, "Liu Yuan has gathered a lot of remnants of the first division around him, this is the essence of our first army, you can't say anything and die in the cow, that's Cheng Qian's mistake, we can't pay for it, what should we do, what should we do." ”
Jiang Xianyun knew that the reason why Chiang Kai-shek was so anxious was because in his mind, the First Army was his step forward, and without the First Army, it would be too big a blow to him.
"Principal, don't be anxious, Zhu Peide's Fourth Army is only three or four days away from Nanchang, as for what he is doing not moving, I think the principal you know what the reason is." Jiang Xianyun prompted.
"It's not just him Zhu Peide himself, wherever the Northern Expedition went, they all had selfish intentions, they thought they wanted to be the king of Jiangxi, I don't know what to do? Well, since they all think so, I will promise them, Wushan, immediately send a telegram to Zhu Peide to let him march quickly, as long as he will go out of Liu Yuan, take Nanchang, and Lao Tzu will make him the king of Jiangxi. Chiang Kai-shek gritted his teeth and said, he is very conflicted now, he must save Liu Yuan, but saving Liu Yuan will make these military leaders breed the hearts of warlords, this is really a group of wolves that can't be fed.
"Principal, Zhu Peide alone can't, the world knows that Liu Yuan is good at fighting, I'm afraid that Zhu Peide will easily take Nanchang with the intention of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, which must be guarded against." Jiang Xianyun reminded that now that the Third Division is in deep danger, only himself is the one who can speak for them.
"Yes, the telegram ordered He Yingqin to send the second division, the eighteenth division, and Li Zongren to send the thirty-third division of the seventh army, and at the same time march urgently, so that they dare to go to Nanchang, as long as he Zhu Peide is not active, he will not think about this king of Jiangxi." Chiang Kai-shek beckoned, and let Jiang Xianyun go out to pass the military order.
At this time, the Third Division finally ushered in the first attack under Wang Yuanyi.
Shelling, endless shelling. Shells fell like hail on the positions of the 3rd Division, and soldiers kept dying. Even if there were anti-artillery holes, under such a dense blow, many anti-artillery holes collapsed, and the soldiers were buried directly in them.
"Marshal, if we continue to bombard like this, I think the southern army on the opposite side will definitely collapse, and when the time comes, we will preach it, so that the world, the British, and the French will also see that China is not invincible." The young chief of staff kept touting Wang Yuanyi's side.
Wang Yuanyi shook his head and said, "Boy, you also underestimate the commander on the other side, have you seen the position on the other side, how long has it been blown up, and a dead body has not proved that they have an anti-artillery hole, we can only destroy their fortifications by doing this, but unfortunately there is no heavy artillery, otherwise it will be a shame for yesterday." ”
"Commander-in-chief, aren't you known as the first wise general of the five provinces? Isn't it all the time you have an idea? The chief of staff said in disbelief.
"Silly boy, when you have absolute strength, crushing is king, and tricks are often accompanied by huge risks, so it is the safest way for us to fight with them directly." Zhao Yande, commander of the 35th Brigade, walked into the headquarters with a smile.
"Oh, Lao Zhao, you can be regarded as here." Wang Yuanyi smiled and took Zhao Yande's hand, personally poured him a glass of water, and said, "Fishing a big fish, the front is surrounded by the first division of the First Army under Chiang Kai-shek and the third is, and now the most elite of the young generation of Huangpu are in charge of commanding the troops. ”
"Commander-in-chief, let me tell you, when I came, the marshal could instruct, let me tell you, be careful, the young man you surrounded is called Liu Yuan, the youngest commander of the Southern Army, who can be civil and martial, and when the time comes, don't chain the monkey and let him harm the alchemy furnace." Zhao Yande said.
"Lao Zhao, you see that you underestimate me too much, I asked the marshal for help, I just analyzed the strength of the Southern Army, do you think that if I didn't release the water, Cheng Qian's stupid thing would have been able to take Nanchang, since they were allowed to come to Nanchang, they would have to die without a place to be buried. It's just that I didn't expect that the older generation can't do it, but this generation is very discerning, if it weren't for Cheng Qian's accident, it is estimated that we would not be able to fight Nanchang at all. Wang Yuanyi said lovingly.
"There are still a lot of talents in the Southern Army, especially their young people, but let them see what it means to be old and spicy today," Zhao Yande said confidently.
"Yes, give me a hard beating, don't estimate the loss, I'll replenish you when the dead go back, and allow you to go to Nanchang City to loot for three days." Wang Yuanyi said with waiting eyes.
"This is true, the commander-in-chief may not be able to speak without words." Zhao Yande's heart was the same as a cat scratch, when he was sent by the marshal, he didn't expect that there would be such a benefit.
"Naturally, as long as you can take down the cattle shop, I will allow you to loot for three days." Wang Yuanyi insisted.
"The commander-in-chief has such a good thing, and he actually forgot about us," At this time, Sun Chuanfang's fierce generals Chen Tiaoyuan and Zhou Fengqi actually arrived.
"I'm more confident when you're here, but how good are you trooping with me?" Wang Yuanyi was not surprised, he thought that killing Liu Yuan was equivalent to cutting off Chiang Kai-shek's arm.
"Two divisions, and one person brought in, you can't imagine it." Zhou Fengqi said with a smile.
"Who?" Wang Yuanyi said with a frown.
"The handsome teacher, Jiang Fangzhen, Mr. Jiang." Zhou Fengqi's words swept away the tension on everyone's brows, and this battle was decided.
