Chapter Ninety-Five: Reorganization and the Northern Expedition XXV
Hanyang won, and in the eyes of public opinion at that time, it won in an almost bizarre way.
Previously, in the battle of Guodi Mountain, Li Chun's Eleventh Mixed Association was completely annihilated by the Anhui Army, and Li Chun, who was about to be promoted to the sixth standard commander, died in the chaotic army. lost his wife and broke his soldiers, which really made Feng Guozhang angry! The previous attack on Wuchang has not been settled, and this depends on an Eleventh Mixed Association! In these years, as many guns as there are in his hands, his waist is as hard as he is, and he has the confidence to speak. This army is the foundation of peace and life in troubled times, a mixed association of more than 3,000 people was defeated, and a co-commander (brigade commander) who was about to be promoted to command (division commander) was also killed, can Feng Guozhang not jump like thunder? ! In addition, Lao Yuan, who was far away in Beijing, did not believe in evil, and pondered letting Feng Guozhang catch up with the vote, first hurt this Anhui army that did not know the height of the sky, and then let Yang Shiqi go to probe the low and win over. With radishes in one hand and a big stick in the other, Lao Yuan's small abacus is very good, promoting peace with war, and pulling while fighting. As long as you Hu Xiaolian and the revolutionary party in Nanjing are not the same way, this person's life is nothing more than wine and wealth, and who can mix in the position of local governor does not have a personal hobby. The Beiyang Group has deep roots, and the British are behind it, not to mention anything else, Lao Yuan is still willing to spend money in winning people's hearts.
With Yuan Shikai's hint and acquiescence, Feng Guozhang, who hated and itched, immediately let go of his hands and feet and prepared to fight in a big way. The strategic places such as Fairy Mountain and Meiniang Mountain in Hanyang have all been taken, and the Hunan army that had taken the lead before has almost lost everything, and only one Turtle Mountain is still in the entire Hanyang. He Feng Guozhang is also a veteran for many years, one of the three heroes of Beiyang, what an old and spicy person, if he can't even take the Turtle Mountain, which has become an isolated island, he really has no face to return to Beiyang.
Ma Jizeng had a mixed association, plus an artillery standard that served as artillery support, and the remnants of the eighth town of the Qing army. A team of nearly 10,000 people, supported by nearly 50 German-style 1904 75-mm field guns, stormed Guishan. 3,000 against 10,000, the ratio of 1 to 3.3, whether it is in terms of troops, artillery, or the quality of soldiers, the Beiyang Army has the advantage. However, the result was very unexpected, and a regiment of the Anhui Army stationed in Guishan, together with the reinforced reconnaissance battalion and the 75 mountain artillery battalion, made the entire Guishan position like an iron bucket. The barbed wire and spider web-like trenches surrounded the entire Guishan layer after layer, and the Anhui army, which did not occupy any aspect, fought with pride. One regiment and three battalion commanders were killed and one seriously wounded, and the regiment commander Sun Dingkun personally went to the front line.
Just when the two sides were fighting to the death around Guishan, the Jiang Defense Gunboat Team and four Yangtze River gunboats that remained in Jiujiang, carrying a regiment of marines, unexpectedly landed behind the Beiyang Army! The difference in military thinking manifests itself here. Although he is a half-in military command, Hu Rui also went to a military school. With a big mule in his head, the classic battle. The two landings in Normandy and Incheon are very representative. A knife in the back, stabbing you is not negotiable!
As the commander-in-chief of the suppression of the Qing army in the direction of Wuchang, Feng Guozhang, a veteran, still stuck in the military thinking of the late nineteenth century. This war has not yet begun, and trench warfare and barbed wire are only ideas put forward by forward-looking military strategists, not to mention an unconventional amphibious landing. Feng Guozhang and the Qing army's eyes were locked on Turtle Mountain, and it had been more than a week since Ma Jizeng attacked and returned to the mountain. Reinforcements were sent several times, but they didn't see Guishanbei take it. Just when everyone was talking about when Guishan would be taken, a marine regiment belonging to the Admiralty of the Anhui Revolutionary Army unexpectedly landed in the rear of Hanyang! stabbed Feng Guozhang in the back fiercely!
The Jiang Yuan and the three Chu ships on display were all maintained and refitted at the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau in Shanghai. The tail compartment, stabilizer fins and armor were added, and the front and rear main guns were modified. The new 50-fold diameter 102-mm rapid-fire gun ordered from Germany has a long range and great power, and when it is equipped with high-explosive bombs and grenades, it is not ordinarily fierce when bombarding land. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the artillery of the new army in various places was complicated (as early as before the Xinhai Revolution, when the Manchu government decided to organize and train the new army, it hoped to unify the artillery to facilitate logistics management. However, until the Xinhai Revolution, the equipment of the artillery of the new army in various provinces was not unified), and the main models were the German Grusen 1894 57 mm mountain gun, the British Vicos short-barreled mountain gun, the Japanese Trinity 75 mm artillery gun, the German 1904/1910 75 mm field gun, and the French 1897 75 mm field gun. Heavy artillery of more than 100 mm was basically not equipped, so four Yangtze River gunboats fired a salvo, and eight heavy guns of more than 100 mm directly hit the Beiyang Army in Hanyang. Under the fierce artillery fire, the abdomen and back were attacked, and the unprepared Beiyang Army and Qing troops from all walks of life rushed under the fierce artillery fire and fled in all directions. Before the Marines could land, they threw down their equipment, baggage, and corpses, and ran away without a trace.
After Feng Guozhang, who was supervising the battle in Hanyang, received the news, he rushed to the top of the blood, swallowed blood on the spot, and passed out. The soldiers and generals around him turned pale with fright, and they were busy pinching people, and it was not easy to wake up Feng Guozhang.
The general trend has gone, and the grief-stricken Feng Guozhang woke up and cried on the spot, and gave the order to retreat weakly. However, the actual situation was that before the order of his commander was issued, the Beiyang Army in Hanyang and the other Qing troops had already begun to run away, and fled towards Hankou, which was occupied by Beiyang.
The Anhui army, which was trapped in Guishan and had been seriously attritional, also immediately seized this opportunity to organize all the defenders on the position and beat the water dogs! Under the cover of naval artillery, a counterattack was launched against the fleeing Qing army, and for a time the rumbling sound of artillery echoed everywhere on the Hanyang front, and the sound of artillery was mixed with loud shouts of killing. Hearing the sound of artillery, thinking of the scene when the Anhui army broke the siege of Wuchang before, the discerning person knew that this was probably the main force of the Anhui army that had come back! For a time, more than 150,000 people spontaneously flocked to the riverside, shouting and cheering while watching the majestic posture of the Anhui army breaking the enemy!
Hanyang won, whether it is Beiyang, which discounts to promote peace by war, or the alliance, which is eager for peace talks between the north and the south, they can't sit still! The river defense gunboat team blockading the river deliberately left an opening, allowing the Beiyang Army in Hanyang to flee to Hankou. The telegram about the situation in Hanyang and the war damage was sent to Beijing through a telegram as soon as possible, and Feng Guozhang, who was angry and vomited blood, also ordered someone to send a secret telegram. After receiving the telegram, Lao Yuan couldn't sit still at all! Not counting the other Qing armies. The Beiyang Army alone has more than 2,000 casualties, which is almost enough for a mixed association! The six towns of Beiyang are the foundation of Lao Yuan's life, and they are also the biggest capital in his hands. Promote peace with war and take the world lightly, what are you doing without troops?! And Feng Guozhang's secret message is much simpler, just one sentence "both Yu and He Shengliang". Lao Yuan knew that Feng Guozhang was really stimulated this time.
After receiving the battle report, Yuan Shikai immediately ordered the Beiyang Army, which had withdrawn to Hankou Loufangxiang, to immediately cease fire and wait for the arrival of Tang Shaoyi's negotiators. At the same time, he sent a telegram to Yang Shiqi, who was sent to find out, asking Yang Shiqi to win over this Anhui governor as soon as possible at all costs! At least at this time of the North-South peace talks. The variable of the Anhui Army must be excluded from the Nanjing Provisional Government. Can't fight anymore, the old Beiyang army has been in the army for many years, and the new fast guns and veterans of Yishui are just like this, and the Anhui army was stunned by the casualties of one to one, and the casualties on the Beiyang side are even greater. Besides. It is not the main force of the Anhui Army stationed in Guishan!
The scheming Yuan Shikai couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, how long has this Anhui army been in the army? This combat power is also terrifying!
At this time, he couldn't sit still like Lao Yuan. There is also an alliance that talks almost between the north and the south. The news of Hanyang's victory came. A close-up in a neutral newspaper like the declaration is capitalized and there is jubilation! Some people even regarded the great victory of the Anhui Army in Hanyang as the "great victory of the Chinese revolution", at least in the recovered provinces, there was finally a strong force that could compete with the Beiyang Army. The League, which has always been civilized with its mouths, is rarely dumb, and the newspapers sponsored by the League have either a few or sour comments on the victory of the Anhui army in Hanyang. No doubt. The League, which has always regarded itself as the leader of the revolution, has been robbed of the limelight this time! The soon-to-be-started North-South peace talks are also hanging, and it will be even more difficult to persuade Tang Shaoyi to come to Shanghai for talks.
For Anjurui's behavior of sticking a stick sideways at this time. The people of the League were both angry and helpless. In this time and space, due to the situation in Wuchang, the situation has been urgent, and the Alliance, which was originally unwilling to talk about anything in parallel history, will take the initiative to ask for peace talks. Chen Qimei's head is big, Huang Xing is going crazy, these two are masters whose ambition and ability are not proportional, and they can't come up with a way to deal with it even if they want to break their heads.
"Hmph, white-eyed wolf! Who recovered Nanjing and Shanghai?! Who saved him Chen Qimei?! Cross the river and tear down the bridge! ”
Xu Shaozhen, an honest man, slapped the table and was angry.
This thing is too inauthentic, and now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not yet arrived in Taiwan, they are already in a hurry to divide the interests, is this worthy of those revolutionary martyrs who threw their heads and spilled their blood?! That's it, at the moment, it is Li Yuanhong and Hu Xiaolian who are facing the Beiyang Army head-on on the front line, even if you want to negotiate peace between the north and the south, why do you exclude others? !
The Provisional Government of Nanjing was formed by the Self-Fighting Alliance, and Xu Shaozhen was also reappointed as the commander of the Nanjing garrison from the original Nanjing Overseer. This good old man naturally still remembers the kindness of giving up Nanjing when Hu Rui led his troops south along the Shanghai-Nanjing line.
"Commander, you're going to see the true colors of some people, right?! Let's not talk about anything else, he Chen Qimei was arrested in the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau for being greedy and reckless, who rescued him? ! Phew, ungrateful stuff! The equipment of the two divisions of our Nanjing People's Army was provided by Hu Dudu, and even the territory where we live now was beaten down and given to us. Commander, our brothers below are all watching, that little brother of yours is really benevolent! Compared to this group of ungrateful white-eyed wolves, I don't know how many times better! ”
Lin Huaichuan beside him also responded indignantly.
He is a member of the Restoration Society and a die-hard follower of Tao Chengzhang. Some people in the alliance have long been disdainful, and the disagreement between the two sides has been made public.
"Commander, let's look down on people here, it's better to go directly to the Anhui Army! Hu Dudu is benevolent and righteous, our brothers are all in the eyes, and you are your little brother, we can't suffer losses in the past! Looking at people like this, hiding behind and watching others fight fiercely with the Beiyang Army, is that still a soldier?! ”
Shen Tongwu was also very unhappy, and they were not less angry in the Nanjing Provisional Government during these days.
"Eh, that's it, that's it, just wait for Mr. Sun to return to China."
Xu Shaozhen, a good old man, didn't want to say that people were not behind his back, waved his hand, and interrupted.
It's not a family. If you don't enter a family, this Sun, as the leader of the artillery party, has long been given the nickname "Sun Dapao" by overseas Chinese in Nanyang, even if he comes back, how much can he change? !
"Three birds with one stone, good calculation! It is said that last night Wuchang Station sent a secret guarantee, saying that the negotiation delegation led by Tang Shaoyi would not go out after arriving in Wuchang. The Nanjing Provisional Government sent Foreign Minister Wang Zhengting to visit, but he was directly refused! Tang Shaoyi asked the Beiyang Army guarding the gate to convey a sentence to the effect that they are now on the front line, and it is Hu Xiaolian and Li Yuanhong who are fighting against the Beiyang Army. Hubei and Anhui did not join the Nanjing Provisional Government. May I ask if your Foreign Minister Ng Dinh Phuong can take the place of these two governors?! As a result, Wang Zhengting's face was defeated for a while, and he crawled back directly! ”
It's rare to be idle, Yan Nuxia, who has already met her parents and basically determined the relationship, nested in Hu Rui's arms and rubbed it. Tsundere said.
"Poon, slap in the face. How can you not be ruthless? Seize the initiative in negotiations, weaken the Nanjing Provisional Government, and hurt Beiyang. We've done it all! The rest will be fought for at the negotiating table, and Sun, the leader of the Alliance, will also return to China. Sanniang, believe it or not, those guys in Nanjing must be scolding their mothers! If we are fast, it is estimated that today, Nanjing will definitely electrify the whole country and invite us to Shanghai to participate in the North-South talks. ”
I can't help but leave a kiss on the white forehead of the beautiful woman in my arms. The person who is in love nodded his lover's delicate and straight little nose, and Hu Rui replied with a light smile.
To say that Yan Nuxia is really worthy of being the swallow thief who roamed the rivers and lakes in the past, dare to love and hate! If you hate someone, you will spare no effort, and if you love someone, you will spare no effort at night! As long as she thinks you are the love of her life. Then they will love you desperately, even if it is life and death. Yan Nuxia, who dares to love and hate, is much bolder than ordinary girls in this year. After meeting the parents and basically determining the relationship, the arrogant and clingy side of the little woman began to show. moved directly to Hu Rui's room, and in the eyes of everyone's envy, jealousy and hatred, they began to live together. Completely stick yourself upside down, as long as you don't wear a military uniform, you curl up in Hu Dashuai's arms like a cat, sticky! Through the silk nightdress, you can clearly feel the elasticity and fullness of the girl's chest, the faint virgin body fragrance between the noses, and the flirtatious beastly hair.
While his happiness soared, Hu Rui felt more and more that he was moving in the direction of Megumi Yanagishita. Of course, Hu Dashuai is a genuine man, and there is no problem in that regard. It's just that there is no pre-marital X behavior in these years, and no matter how much Yan Nuxia dares to love and hate, she will not easily give away her first time. Guard! In later generations, there will be no market for dating guns and "picking up corpses" here, except, of course, the Bada Hutong or something.
Thinking of the glittering swallow dart and the "Liu's Eighteen Pinch" that he had personally experienced, Hu Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly. Xiao Xiaohu, who was holding high the banner of the revolution, died down and obediently shrank back in the face of his supernatural kung fu.
"It's the hardest thing to be graced by a beauty!"
Hu Dashuai shouted in his heart.
"Lao Hu, what are you thinking?"
Sanniang tilted her head, looked at Hu Dashuai, who was crying and laughing for a while, and couldn't help but ask. The slender, rounded legs were pinchiably clipped around someone's waist and rubbed gently. The posture is ambiguous and seductive.
"No, I'm wondering if I should recite the Tao Te Ching, it's better to have the Meditation Mantra! Sanniang, let's discuss, let's not play this ambiguous posture before marriage, okay?! ”
Hu Dashuai pinched his nose, resisted the urge to spurt blood, and said to mercy.
"Well, what's wrong with that? Why is it ambiguous? ”
Stripped of her disguise, Sanniang re-emerged as the little girl in her early twenties. Tilting his head, his face was curious and puzzled.
“……”
Hu Dashuai burst into tears in his heart, and the little girl in her early twenties in the future generations didn't know how many black fungus had been polluted by equipment, and she thought that it was so pure that it was almost extinct. At this moment, Hu Dashuai suddenly had an inexplicable sense of guilt and an inexplicable excitement, just like winning five million.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
There was a knock on the cabin door, and there must be something big about it.
Hu Dashuai, who was caught in the fire of desire, was tormented, and finally looked forward to a savior, and immediately pulled down the Yan Nuxia who was holding him like a koala, wrapped it tightly in the quilt, and hurriedly put on his coat, turned over and got out of bed. Before opening the door, he grabbed the kettle on the table, and without using a cup, he directly drank most of it - it was really impossible to suppress the fire.
"Dashuai, Anqing has just forwarded an urgent telegram from the Nanjing Provisional Government, and is ready to send Song Jiaoren to Anqing in person, asking you to go to Shanghai to participate in the North-South peace talks."
As an adjutant, Shen Bin knows what to see and what not to see. He handed over the telegram respectfully, stood upright without squinting, and waited for instructions.
"White-eyed wolf! Act like a snob! It's going to remind you of me! Labor and management are no longer serving! Notify Anqing to call back, and say that I personally led reinforcements to support Wuchang! In addition, you asked the Secretariat to draft a message saying that the implementation did not know about the situation and did not dare to participate without permission. That's it! We must slap this hard! I call you a dog looking down on people! White-eyed wolf! ”
finally had a moment to vent, Hu Dashuai immediately turned the burning desire into endless anger (what kind of logic is this), and scolded viciously.
"Yes!"
Shen Bin blinked, wondering in his heart what was wrong with his handsome, why he was suddenly so hot. It's not the first time that the League has done this......
The moment he turned around, he inadvertently avoided Hu Dashuai, who was angry and rushed to the crown, and was facing Yan Nuxia, who was curled up on the bed with a dissatisfied face.
"Desire is dissatisfied!"
The goods immediately made a conclusion in their hearts, shook their heads, wrote down the content with a bitter face, and hurriedly ran away. Those who want to be dissatisfied with the gods and horses are the most annoying! Whether it's a man or a woman, it's a powder keg that explodes! Gotcha, the lights will be turned off in the future, and if there is something else, any of you will notify the marshal, let's not go! The future and life matter! (To be continued......)
