Volume 2 Chapter 16 The Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition (5)

The ground not far from the dense fog was full of screams and begging for mercy in a Jiangbei accent, Zhao Huipeng closed his eyes in pain and muttered to himself: "It's over, it's over!" ”

The Lord will be like this, and how can the people below have the fighting spirit. Zhao Huipeng settled down and ordered: "Withdraw!" ”

Almost at the same time that Yuhuatai was scooped down, Xiaolingwei also announced that it had changed hands. While Fang Jianxiong was still waiting for the news, the front observation post came to report: "The red flag of our army has been raised above Xiaolingwei!" ”

That's right, Fang Jianxiong used a pure red flag, no sickle and axe, and no stars!

The artillery hot air balloon finally played a little role, and quickly spotted three red signal flares raised in the direction of Xiaolingwei.

"Dio! This scooped down Xiaolingwei? Zhang Dashuai is too careless, right? Fang Jianxiong muttered! In the past, the second volume of the sixteenth chapter of the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition (5) was not confident, after all, it was a newly trained army, but I didn't expect the fight to be so smooth, and the original plan was to have a hundred and ten casualties to scoop down Yuhuatai, and the statistical result was only 22 injuries.

Fang Jianxiong didn't expect something to happen at all, and he felt that his luck was too good. As everyone knows, when the allied forces attacked Nanjing in Soviet history, the strength was not more than 10,000 people, and the equipment was equivalent to that of the Qing army, so they still captured Nanjing. Fang Jianxiong's troops are not to say that they are the army of tigers and wolves who dare to die, but they must have super fierce firepower to occupy the top spot in the country. Yuhuatai Chengwen was killed by artillery shells, this era of soldiers for the generals, will be the courage of the soldiers, how can the army without generals have combat effectiveness?

On the other side of the cold rain, Zhao Huipeng was completely scared, and 3,000 people guarded a filial piety guard. A pile of killing gods rushed out of the dense fog in the sky. In less than an hour, a third of the troops remained, and this is still a fart? The troops in the civil war, if the casualties exceeded 30% and did not collapse, it was a strong army, and if the casualties exceeded 50%, it could continue to fight, and that was the Iron Army.

The revolutionary army's style of play has never been seen by the Qing army on the other side, and one of them has suffered a big loss. Collapse is inevitable.

In the governor's office, it was learned that less than an hour after the start of the war, Yuhuatai Xiaolingwei had lost the second volume of the sixteenth chapter of the Eastern Expedition and the Northern Expedition (5). Zhang Renjun and Tie Liang were frightened. The Anhui Revolutionary Army is so capable of fighting? You must know that there are five or six thousand people on the two positions, and this is only a little more work.

"I'll go out and see!" Zhang Xun didn't say a word, turned around and went out. Zhang Renjun and Tie Liang looked at each other. They all said in unison: "Why don't you go to the gunboats on the river and wait for news?" ”

The two of them wanted to go together, so what were they waiting for, immediately let people pack up and hurry home to prepare to run. There was chaos in the governor's office, and Zhang Renjun didn't even wait to finish cleaning up, and took the guards to the Xiaguan Pier first and got on a gunboat. After a while, Tie Liang also arrived, and the two of them could be regarded as having a good heart, and they each smiled bitterly.

The Anhui Revolutionary Army did not get into chaos because the victory came too quickly. Fang Jianxiong strictly ordered all troops to act in accordance with the established battle plan to avoid unnecessary casualties, and at the same time sent someone to inform the results of the battle on the side of the Ninth Town. The cold rain that was going to take advantage of the victory to pursue was not tempered at all by this damn weather. I had to stop and clean up the battlefield.

In the battle of Yuhuatai, the Qing army's casualties and prisoners were roughly the same, but not on the Leng Yu side, the Qing army was really killed and wounded only a few hundred, and after the collapse, there were thousands of prisoners. This cold rain made it impossible to pursue, and the secret service group stopped for a short rest. While letting the medical staff go up to treat the wounded on both sides, he ordered to pay attention to vigilance and sent people back to report the results of the battle.

After waiting for a full hour, the vanguard of the 2nd Division arrived. Even slower were the heavy artillery brigades, which had just packed up their artillery and were preparing to move positions. Cheng Zhixuan's black line in his head, what kind of reputation is this Qing army? Even if it broke up in two hours, Xiaolingwei was also lost, and the heavy artillery brigade had no chance to play.

Fang Jianxiong was quite happy and saved money! I'm just a little worried about the casualties of the secret service group! Waiting for someone from front to report, Fang Jianxiong listened to the report with a dark face, and didn't say anything, just snorted. Want credit? Labor and management will be counted as the crime of attacking without permission! Anyway, this cold rain can be regarded as beating Zhang Xun's bottom line, and with this combat power, Fang Jianxiong, who was cautious before, regretted it a little. However, considering the large army operation, there is indeed a lot to learn, so there is no hurry, and the order is to fight step by step. There is no problem with Nanjing scooping!

At the station of the ninth town, Xu Shaojiao and Shen Tongwu got up early in the morning, climbed to a high place and looked at the direction they remembered from the sound of the cannon. There was only one unit stationed at Ziling Pass, including the 17th Association and the artillery, cavalry, baggage, and engineer units of the town administration. Historically, the New Army revolted, and with these forces to attack the city of Nanjing, defeat was inevitable under the condition of three bullets per capita.

This time, Xu Shaojiao is very confident, where did the new army put the patrol battalion in its eyes?

The telescope was also given by Fang Jianxiong, six times that of Zeiss, and he could see it so clearly. It's a pity that the fog is too big, and it will be ten o'clock when it clears. I looked at the pocket watch, and it was still early, just before nine o'clock. Xu Shaojiao heard movement behind him, and looked back to see that it was Lin Huaichuan, the eighteenth co-ordinator, who came.

The Eighteenth Association was stationed in Zhenjiang, and considering that he was going to attack Nanjing, Xu Shaojiao asked people to send a letter to Lin Huaichuan, hoping that he would abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Since Lin Huaichuan can come, it means that he has decided.

However, looking at his face, it didn't seem to be so good-looking, Xu Shaojiao waited for him to salute and said with concern: "What's wrong?" ”

>

"Thirty-five bids Lin Shuqing insisted on revolting in Zhenjiang, this person has a high prestige in the army, so he had to bring thirty-six bids to his humble position." Lin Huaichuan's answer made Xu Shaojiao's face show a trace of annoyance, and he immediately remembered what Fang Jianxiong said, I don't know who will be in charge of this ninth town in the future?

Obviously, Lin Shuqing is going to do it alone, Zhenjiang is on the edge of Nanjing, and if he lays down Nanjing, is Zhenjiang still a problem?

"Lin Shuqing is ambitious, I really didn't see it before." Shen Tongwu said gloomily on the side, he was very dissatisfied with Lin Shuqing's approach.

Xu Shaojiao raised the telescope to look at Nanjing City, and said lightly: "Let's talk about Nanjing." ”

"My lord, I want to resign and return to my hometown." Lin Huaichuan was a little disheartened.

Xu Shaojiao glanced at him and said lightly: "What can you do when you go back?" Stay, and when the city of Nanjing is down, I will give you an explanation. Xu Shaojiao is a gentle person, and he actually understands very well in his heart that there are too many revolutionary parties in this ninth town. Fang Jianxiong reminded that it is very reasonable, it is true that he is inclined to revolution, but it does not mean that he can be taken away from his military power.

In the history of parallel space, Lin Shuqing actually wanted to establish himself as the governor after conquering Nanjing, but Xu Shaojiao and Song Jiaoren strongly opposed it at that time, so he gave up. It can be seen that people are ambitious.

The sun came out, the fog gradually faded a little, and it was half past nine in the morning, and the signal corps came from the distance.

"My lord! The Anhui Revolutionary Army sent a letter, Yuhuatai and Xiaolingwei scooped it down successively, and the main force of the Anhui Army had arrived at the foot of Tianbao City. ”

Xu Shao's hand shook, what kind of battle is this? Shen Tongwu and Lin Huaichuan both showed shocked eyes and looked at each other. That's a little too violent, isn't it? Is this just a little longer? These two dangerous places have been scooped down?

"What about the casualties of the Anhui army?" Xu Shaojiao asked, thought about it and waved his hand: "You go down, how can people say this." ”

Shen Tongwu stood forward excitedly, and said uprightly: "My lord, please give the order, we will attack immediately, maybe we can scoop down Nanjing City today." ”

Xu Shaojiao hesitated for a moment and said: "Don't be excited, you also know the equipment of the Anhui army, there are dozens of heavy artillery." How we should fight, how we will fight. Let's go down and prepare, the cannon of Tianbao City will sound, and we will attack. ”

Lin Huaichuan's expression on the side was complicated, and he saw that something was wrong. Especially the guards around him, all of them have changed guys.

"My lord, did you make an appointment with the Anhui Revolutionary Army?" Lin Huaichuan asked cautiously, Xu Shaojiao nodded and said, "It's an appointment, and the ammunition is also replenished by them, and some Makqin machine guns were also sent." ”

Lin Huaichuan's eyes suddenly stopped, this Anhui Revolutionary Army is also a little too generous, right?

"They didn't ask for it, did they?" Lin Huaichuan added, Xu Shaojiao shook his head and said, "No!" Even the self-gain of my guard company was given by Brother Fang. ”

On Fang Jianxiong's side, it was actually the heavy artillery brigade that was holding back. In fact, after leaving Anhui, the road is not easy to walk. The heavy artillery brigade is all big guys, four horses pull a cannon, and the speed of the march can be imagined.

In the previous life, it can be said that it is just the opposite, from Anhui to Jiangsu, the road has changed from bad to good. Fang Jianxiong was most concerned about the heavy artillery brigade, and he personally came to suppress the formation. And it was repeatedly ordered that the troops at the front must wait for the arrival of heavy artillery before they could attack. The dense fog had almost dispersed, Fang Jianxiong would not take the initiative to ask the soldiers to be more heroic, he just had to do his own thing well. Minimize the casualties of the troops, this is Fang Jianxiong's way of leading the troops.

When the heavy artillery brigade arrived at the position and set up a position to prepare for a test firing, suddenly Duan Feng came with Yang Yanchang.

"What's the situation?" Fang Jianxiong muttered in his heart, Yang Yanchang came over and saluted: "Report to Fang Dashuai, Zhang Xun sent someone to find Master Xu and ask for peace." Lord Xu can't make up his mind in his heart, let me ask what you mean. ”

"Peace? What are his qualifications? "I heard that I can scoop down Nanjing without fighting, and Fang Jianxiong is a little excited. When this cannon sounds, it is ten thousand taels of gold, and all that is shot out is silver. Zhang Xun, a guy who is engaged in restoration, has been talked about in history textbooks. Fang Jianxiong still has an impression of this guy.

"Zhang Xun offered to let him withdraw from Nanjing with his subordinates! The others were not mentioned. As soon as Yang Yanchang said this, Fang Jianxiong understood. Feelings: Zhang Xun's abacus is that there are soldiers in his hands.

"! Why did he make peace? You go back and tell Lord Xu that before two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Xun must surrender unconditionally. Do not surrender at that time, attack on both sides at the same time! ”

Peace! Talk about your sister's and! After knowing that his troops were very powerful, Fang Jianxiong waved his hand with great momentum, and he had a very leader temperament. !!
