Chapter 614: Shelling of Guangzhou
Feng Yongxing hurriedly found Wu Peifu and put forward a suggestion to him to expose Sun Wen's true face, thinking that as an opponent, Wu Peifu would agree without hesitation, but he knew that Wu Peifu's expression was a little abnormal, and he stuffed the list of arms to Feng Yong.
"You have to leave a trace of affection in everything, Sun Wen has been driven out of Guangzhou, and I am afraid it is a little inappropriate to blindly kill them all."
When Feng Yong heard this, he immediately frowned: "Chief Wu, Sun Wen has scolded others a lot over the years, why should he accuse others, but it is not okay to accuse him." And we are not fabricating facts, the evidence is in front of us, we must let the people of the world recognize Sun Wen's face, so that more people will not be deceived by him again, what is wrong with this? ”
Wu Peifu was silent for a long time before he said: "In my opinion, it is inevitable that Sun Wen will have dealings with the great powers, but he will not necessarily betray the country, and he will make friends with the great powers and get the support of the great powers, and Sun Wen is not doing it alone. If I attack this, I am afraid that it will cause opposition from others, and it will also involve the great powers, so I have to think twice about everything! ”
This set of rhetoric was obviously unacceptable to Feng Yong, and he still had to speak, Wu Peifu waved his hand and asked him to withdraw. Feng Yong had no choice but to leave angrily and returned to the camp, just as Xue Ju was also waiting for him, Feng Yong introduced the situation, and Xue Ju was also very surprised.
"Wu Peifu is confused, and Sun Wen has long been the enemy of ice and fire, if he doesn't take the opportunity to completely kill the enemy, what is in his mind?"
Feng Yong sneered: "I was thinking on the way back, and now I basically have some ideas, I have summarized a few reasons, the first is the tradition of Beiyang, they all follow the officialdom routine of the late Qing Dynasty, and pay attention to killing people too much." Leave a line in everything, and meet next time! ”
"Hmph, I still want to meet, maybe next time Sun Wen will drive him away with the army, where can I find this kind of God-given opportunity." Xue Ju was obviously unconvinced.
Feng Yong continued: "There are two other reasons, Wu Peifu may have the idea of co-opting Sun Wenyu's party, so he is unwilling to completely tear his face, and once he criticizes Sun Wen and pulls out the radish and brings out the mud, the Japanese will not be able to escape." At that time, Japan will put pressure on Wu Peifu. ”
"After all, I still feel ashamed!" Xue Ju said mercilessly: "What Sun Wen has done, they have also done, once they make trouble, they will be disgraced." But we don't care, we definitely can't listen to Wu Peifu. Easily flipped over Sun Wen. ”
Feng Yong nodded: "That's right, send a report to the marshal immediately." Ask for instructions from the marshal. ”
is between words. A signal soldier hurriedly ran in and reported loudly: "After dawn, Sun Wen commanded three gunboats to bombard Guangzhou, causing a large number of civilian casualties, asking for instructions." ”
Feng Yong listened. Immediately, he stood up suddenly, and said sharply: "Sun Wen is so rampant, he dares to slaughter innocent people, and he must not let them go!" ”
Xue Ju was also extremely angry. Let him run to the warship, this Sun Wen is not honest, he dares to kill civilian casualties, it is simply too hateful!
"It's true that Sun Wen should be taught a lesson, but we don't have warships, and the range of army guns can't be compared to naval guns, and once they find out about the danger, they will run away, what should we do?"
Feng Yong sneered: "Old Xue, don't forget that I am from the Air Force, no matter how fast Sun Wen is, can he be faster than the plane, immediately let the plane go out and bomb Sun Wen for me." ”
Feng Yong is also resolute, he does not have a special bomber in his hand, only a reconnaissance plane, but this is enough, Sun Wen's several gunboats are gadgets of less than a thousand tons, as long as they are hit by a bomb, they will sink to the bottom of the sea.
After receiving the order, the pilots and ground crews of the Fengjun army quickly modified the plane, loaded it with bombs, and immediately roared into the sky.
At this time, Sun Wen was still on the Yongfeng ship, directing the bombardment of the city of Guangzhou, and he fired a cannon last night, but because at night, Sun Wen was worried about being ambushed, so he left the coast far away.
On the warship, he didn't sleep all night, his wife and children were all arrested, his cronies' subordinates were almost wiped out, and the huge amount of aid given to him by the Japanese was also wasted.
In the blink of an eye, two more gunboats of the Cantonese army came to join him, and there were still many KMT elements in the navy. Sun Wen immediately commanded three warships, approached the city of Guangzhou again, and bombarded the buildings in the city with the main guns of the warships.
Many people flocked to the docks to escape the fire, and they could clearly see the culprit of all this, the so-called revolutionary pioneer, the righteous and moral Sun Cannon. The homeland was destroyed, these ordinary people scolded loudly, and a few young men got on the fishing boat directly and wanted to rush over and reason with Sun Wen. But the people on the side stopped them, and they didn't take the lives of the people in their eyes at all, and the theory was just a live target for others!
The buildings near the dock were all engulfed in flames, and Sun Wencai seemed to have a sigh of resentment, as for those grief and angry people, they were not considered at all. He immediately ordered the warship to turn around, and he was going to flee to Hong Kong first, and then to Shanghai or Japan at the right time.
Just as their warship had just turned its head, suddenly there was a loud roar in the air, and ten planes appeared over the harbor. Like eagles, the planes swooped down on the three warships.
Feng Zhaoxian, the captain of the Yongfeng ship, never thought that the planes would attack them, in his opinion, the sea was the world of warships, and no one could stop them wherever they wanted. It was precisely because of this that he dared to come to bombard Guangzhou again, but after these planes appeared, he was completely dumbfounded.
"Go, go!"
The people on the warship did not know how to deal with the air raid at all, so they were all in a hurry, and the first combat plane of the Feng army reached the sky above the warship, and the flight altitude was pressed to less than 100 meters. This is already quite a dangerous height, and it is quite possible to be hit by fire from warships.
However, as a rookie pilot, it was not so low, and he couldn't shoot at all, and at the moment when he swept over the Yongfeng ship, a fifty-kilogram bomb was dropped.
The bomb exploded at a distance of more than 20 meters from the Yongfeng ship, and immediately set off a column of water that soared into the sky, and the Yongfeng ship suddenly turned into a flat boat, making a creaking sound. Although no serious injuries were done, everyone on board the warship was gone.
One bomb was dropped, followed by two more bombs, but the two pilots were not lucky, and the bombs exploded dozens of meters away. Just when the people on board were even crying out for luck, the fourth plane also reached their heads, and a bomb was dropped, and it exploded immediately within ten meters of the bow of the ship.
The huge pressure of water pressed against the bow of the ship, like a sledgehammer hammering on the warship, and suddenly the bow was crushed, the steel was torn apart, and the sea water rushed in frantically. The Yongfeng ship is an offshore gunboat built by Japan, with a displacement of only more than 700 tons, and a 50-kilogram bomb can send a destroyer to the bottom of the sea, not to mention such a gadget.
The bow of the ship was crushed, and a hideous wound of more than two meters appeared, and the bow of the ship sank into the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the officers and men on the ship also fell into the water. A large number of civilians also gathered on the wharf, and when they saw that this evil warship had been bombed, they all clapped their hands and applauded, and for a time the cheers overwhelmed everything.
Sun Wen also fell into the sea, and poured two mouthfuls of seawater in a row, Sun Wen only felt that the strength in his whole body was gone, and he was sinking rapidly.
"Help, help!" Sun Wen shouted loudly for help on the water, but at this time, everyone was concerned about their lives and didn't care about him at all. Sun Wen slapped the water weakly, and just as he was about to sink, suddenly a bald man swam to his side and hugged Sun Wen's waist.
"Don't be afraid, sir, we will definitely survive!"
He took Sun Wen to swim desperately towards the two warships, and at this time Fengjun's planes had already bombed the two warships, one of which received a bomb in the stern and was also sinking into the water, and the other was lucky to avoid the attack.
The planes used by the Fengjun were modified from reconnaissance planes, and they could only hang one bomb, and the 10 planes could only carry 10 bombs. This also gave Sun Wen a chance to breathe, the man dragged him and swam more than 200 meters, and the finished warship returned to save people, and Sun Wen and both of them got on board.
When he arrived at the ship, Sun Wen was also in great distress, he took a turn around the ghost gate, he didn't think about anything anymore, and hurriedly ordered the warship to run quickly, don't let the plane catch up again, otherwise there will be only a dead end. The warship smoked billowing black smoke and fled as fast as it could.
At this time, a large number of fishing boats had come out of the port of Guangzhou, and the common people spontaneously captured all the sailors who had fallen into the water, and the fishermen were not polite to these guys who fired at the people.
Sun Wen's bombardment of the city of Guangzhou, but it was bombed by the planes of the Feng army, and he almost died, which immediately became the biggest news, even more lively than the breaking of the city of Guangzhou.
In this incident, the leader of the revolution became the main culprit of the cruelty of the people, and the warlords, who had been blamed, firmly defended the interests of the people and attacked the culprits. Just after Fengjun's plane returned to the airport, the gentlemen and merchants of Guangzhou City, as well as the leaders of the academic circles, all went to Fengjun's barracks and praised Fengjun's behavior.
Feng Yong timely ran out of all kinds of evidence to the media, exposing Sun Wen's various evil deeds in front of the world, and a condemnation of the Kuomintang was also launched. (To be continued......)
