In the quagmire, two mud-covered corpses were no longer able to distinguish their faces, their ears had been cut off by the soldiers, and their shirts had been pulled bare.

In the canopy not far away, the bonfire was red, more than a dozen Beiyang soldiers ignored the corpse, talking and laughing together, and there was a huge Makqin machine gun on the tripod next to it, and the long canvas cartridge belt extended from the receiver to the ammunition box, and the bullets were shining in the reflection of the flames. This is Wangjiadian, less than 15 kilometers away from Xiaochang, due to the experience of Chenjiaao, this small town that hoarded a large amount of grain and ammunition in addition to four machine gun teams, there is also an infantry standard of Henan 29 Association and a battalion of the fifth town, and there are also two baggage battalions and an artillery company to assist in guarding ().

A Beiyang soldier took out a crumpled cigarette roll from his pocket, and after scattering in a circle, he hugged the gun and said worriedly: "Brothers, how long do you say this battle will last?" The soldiers next to him added a few sticks of firewood, and the red and glamorous bonfire could be seen several miles away, and shook his head: "Ghost knows, the eight towns don't know what evil they have committed, what does it mean to grit their teeth and carry it desperately, I want to say that everyone sits down to catch up on the old days, and then brings a pot of the party to the emperor to ask for a reward." ”

"Think beautifully, do you know how many parties there are in the Eight Towns Army?"

"What a bullshit party, it's just a bunch of fake foreign ghosts who want to compete with our Lord Yuan! Drag a few sentences of foreign literature and think that he is a fucking new youth, saying that the court is a traitor, they are not on the pole to give their ass to Japan to fuck, and when they are old, they will beat their eggs. ”

"I think it's strange, what kind of immortal is Yang Qiu? Why haven't you heard of it before? It's a cannon and a machine gun, could it be that he has a better relationship with the Germans than adults? He doesn't know how to be a party, what's the point of making a fool of himself? ”

"Hell knows! When he was caught, Lao Fei asked for an ugly question. ”

"Catch a hairball, and when Feng Juntong arrives in Hankou, I'm afraid he will already go to Hunan, I haven't heard that he has made the surname Tan in Hunan comfortable!"

The soldiers blew the conch and fart, chatting about the gossip that came from nowhere, and when they burned the butt of the cigarette, they heard a sudden noise in the wind and rain, and the machine gunner had been leaning on the battle position, so he reacted the fastest, and immediately pulled the bolt when he heard the noise, but before he could see the news of the purpose of the sound mark, several flames suddenly flashed in his eyeballs, and then he felt a heat wave rushing down, and his throat was as uncomfortable as being stuffed into a few candles.

"Well played!"

In the wind and rain on the opposite side, the artillery squad leader patted the gunner Ma Deyu on the shoulder and shouted: "Quick, come two more!" ”

The red bonfire is the best coordinates, seeing that he lost half of the machine gun canopy with one shot, Ma Deyu's face also rose a hint of red, and he excitedly stuffed the shells into the cannonballs with his comrades, and the four five-life and seven cannons kept smashing the cannonballs onto the canopy ().

"Three battalions! Above. Left of the second battalion! To the right of the 1st Battalion...... Machine gun! Machine gun! ”

Seeing that the machine gun that posed the greatest threat was overturned, the three battalions that had long been ready to attack immediately came out of the wind and rain, and at the same time, shouts also sounded from the west, and the two regiments rushed towards Wangjiadian while shouting, and for a time there were cries of attack in all directions.

Several Wehrmacht soldiers dragged the BMX with hemp ropes, because it was raining and muddy, it took a lot of effort to bring the heavy machine guns over, and the infantry had already grabbed a high position in front, so when they arrived, they immediately lifted the rain cloth and stuffed the bullets, and the long gun flames suddenly appeared in the darkness. On one side, their own machine guns began to sweep and fight, and more than a dozen recruits in the back had already begun to pull back the damaged Beiyang machine gun, and a few bold ones simply straightened their waists and carried the bullet box and ran to the black privately.

Chen Jiaao's experience in front of the car, so that the Beiyang army stationed here did not dare to slack off, the officer ordered the soldiers to sleep must stay in the battle position, so this time the reaction was relatively fast, but the shouts in the sky still made the Beiyang soldiers frightened and pale, due to the heavy wind and rain outside, I don't know how many troops came, many people could only fire at the shadow that was faintly visible in the dark and dark, and the muzzle flame that lit up at this time obviously became the first choice of heavy firepower.

The six Japanese seven-fire and five guns quickly lowered the muzzle, and when the gunner stuffed the first shell after the adjustment was completed, a scene that surprised them was presented, only to see the heavy machine gun that breathed fire suddenly stopped firing, although they still loyally fired the shells at the original position, but not only did not there be a picture of flesh and blood flying in the smoke, but a long flame appeared dozens of meters away.

When did Makqin move so quickly?

Before the heavy machine guns could be solved, more than a dozen light machine guns joined in, and then a dense fireball rushed up from the front of the Beiyang position, and the newly formed grenadiers could finally stop the training bullets that were still like iron bumps every day, and scurried towards the Beiyang soldiers like joy.

The infantry quickly seized a position along the channel opened by the grenades, and then several light machine gunners spread along the trenches to the two wings, and under the double attack of the rifles and grenades, the positions on the periphery of Wangjiadian were in a mess, and because their own people and the enemy were mixed together, the artillery did not dare to open fire at will, so they could only wait for the situation to become clearer.

Suddenly! A rumbling sound sounded from the center of Wangjiadian, and a five-life-seven cannonball fired by the Wehrmacht gunners finally took effect, igniting hundreds of boxes of shells hoarded in the warehouse, and the huge explosion spread outward from the town, and the flames engulfed half of the town in the blink of an eye. This time Beiyang is completely chaotic, especially the Henan soldiers of the 29th Association, the original combat effectiveness is poor, and when they see their own ammunition depot being hit, they become headless flies, and finally the Beiyang officers are not able to restrain themselves while collecting the army to keep the remaining arms and grain, while sending cavalry to Guangshui and Xiaochang for help.

At this moment, Xiaogan didn't know that the Wangjiadian behind him had been attacked, Feng Guozhang was lying on the table looking at the map, and an oil lamp in the corner flickered on and off, which seemed to indicate that the old man who was already full of gorgeous hair was in a bad mood.

Beiyang, who was still unimpressed with the Hui Party and the Hubei Army before untying the cable, completely encountered a nail this time, in fact, Feng Guozhang felt a little bad from the robbery of Wushengguan, but he still didn't expect Wushengguan to fight so fiercely, especially the last carefully set ambush, which directly kicked Wang Zhanyuan's third mixed association out of this big battle. There are more than 4,000 people at once, even he feels that his military strength is a little insufficient, and Xiaochang has suffered serious losses in the past few days, and more than 2,000 elite soldiers who have been trained for so long are so in vain, which makes this old man who cherishes soldiers feel distressed.

"Si Cheng, Xiushan...... Looks like we're in for a hard time this time. ”

Feng Guozhang raised his head and glanced at Li Chun and Wang Yujia, and asked with a cold face, "What's going on over there in Chun?" When will the ammunition arrive? ”

Li Chun and Wang Yujia didn't dare to speak, because the Wushengguan railway was cut off, and the savings were about to bottom out after a few days of the war, and when Wang Zhanyuan and the Third Mixed Association could send the ammunition up became the key, and finally Liu Chengen replied: "Huafu, don't worry too much, this ghost weather is difficult to walk, and it is understandable to live a day or two in the Spring Festival Gala." ”

Feng Guozhang snorted a few times and didn't continue to speak, Liu Chengen is Yuan Shikai's henchman, he can't help but give a few faces, not to mention that the weather is really bad, many soldiers are suffering from wind disease, in order to raise enough ginger to make ginger tea to ward off the cold, he even sent troops to rob everywhere, so that the Hubei locals who are even more blamed, even many gentry avoid Beiyang ().

Li Chun can be regarded as Feng Guozhang's person, and when he saw that he was upset, he immediately said: "The military commander is at ease, it is estimated that it will be sunny in the next two days, and when the time comes, I will personally lead the army to take the lead, I don't believe they can still stop it!" ”

Wang Yujia also smacked fiercely, and said hatefully: "We consume a lot, but they are no better, more than 3,000 corpses are still lying in the ditch, and the little money in Lao Bazhen has been almost consumed by us!" The newly arrived Fourth Town in Hunan is still in Yuezhou, and it will take two days to come now, not to mention that they are all eggs who can't even use guns! After two days of rushing after the sunny day, it will definitely open up the situation! ”

Zhang Lianfen is the chief adviser of the First Army, and Feng Guozhang has known each other for many years, the latter immediately called him back after becoming the commander of the army, and at this moment he saw that the generals were talking about fighting, and reminded: "Si Cheng is right, the front is not too worried, and we can slowly consume Yang Qiu, what I am worried about is ...... Kyoyama! ”

"Go on."

Seeing Feng Guozhang turn his head, Zhang Lianfen knew that he was also worried about Jingshan, and continued: "Jingshan is the most important barrier in the south of Dahong Mountain, and opening it is equivalent to opening the road to Hanchuan...... I'm afraid there are also problems with going south. ”

Feng Guozhang nodded, he was actually worried about Jingshan on the side. During this period of time, a town in Yangqiu has been attacking everywhere based on Jingshan, and thirty percent of the current battle damage is consumed and lost by this "small battle", if you don't solve them in time, even if you open Xiaogan and go south, you will face the danger of being cut off from behind. He had been thinking about the division of troops for a long time, but he had just banned a few more people.

It is definitely not enough to send a target, and a partner can barely suppress the enemy here, but it is impossible to annihilate it, because the terrain of Jingshan is complicated, and he is not familiar with the expedition, unless it is ......! Feng Guozhang's eyes circled around the map, and just as he was about to speak, the consultant rushed in, Zhang Lianfen stopped him and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Oh no!" The advisor couldn't take a breath, and shouted anxiously, "Wang...... Wang's store has been attacked! ”

"What!" Wang Yujia had the most explosive temper, and excitedly grabbed the consultant's collar: "Say it again? Where is it? ”

"It's Wangjiadian ()!"

Liu Chengen's face is green, but Wangjiadian is stationed by his 29 mixed association, plus the Beiyang step mark, baggage, etc., it is almost an association! How could it be attacked? Hurriedly asked, "How many people are there?" What happened to the grain? ”

Even Feng Guozhang pricked up his ears, Wangjiadian is a transit station connecting Wushengguan and Xiaogan, where thousands of boxes of ammunition and grain are stored, and the consultant also knows that it is important, and continued: "The wind and rain are too big, I can't tell how many people and horses there are, only that there are a lot of cannons and machine guns, and there should be a lot of people in the situation!" ”

"Bastard! Military commander, let me lead the team to intercept them immediately! ”

"I'll go, my 22nd mark is still in Weidian, and it won't take an hour in the past."

The attack on Wangjiadian made the front line suddenly nervous, and Zhang Lianfen was even more nervous: "Military commander, now we have five days of rations left, and all the ammunition that comes here in the spring is ammunition, and the next batch of rations will arrive in at least six days, ......what do you think?" ”

The sudden accident made Feng Guozhang calm down, and his hair seemed to stand upside down under the light, Zhang Lianfen, who was familiar with him, knew that this time he was aroused to kill! Before he could speak, he saw him suddenly point his hand at Jingshan and sneered: "Isn't it just trying to force me to divide my troops to weaken the front?" Good! The old man will give Yang Qiu a face this time! ”

"Si Cheng!"

Wang Yujia held the handle of the knife in his hand, the green tendons on his arm protruded, and he took a step forward: "The military commander ordered, this time he is not full of flowers, he is raised by his grandson!" ”

"Take your Fourth Town, I'll give you ten days! Buy me the road from Jingshan and Tianmen to Hanchuan! ”

"Military commander, is a town ......." Everyone was shocked, but they didn't expect the old man to take away a town as soon as he opened his mouth! Zhang Lianfen hurriedly persuaded him, but was interrupted by Feng Guozhang, and turned his head with anger: "Want to surround him?" Then I'll see if he can eat it! ”
