Chapter 110: The Changes Brought About by the Great Victory (Addition)
(PS: When I got up in the morning, I saw that 'Yang Xuan' gave a big reward again, so that the bandit army had its first disciple, thank you!) Add a more chapter to the table meaning! At the same time, I would also like to thank the great people who supported and encouraged 'True Love, Tianya Reef, Panda Can't Sing, Ying Linglong, Lan Shengcong, Playing Chess with the Princess, Vigo's War, etc.
To be honest, the results of this book are really not optimistic, in the words of friends, it is a fluttering goods! But the rifle is not a person who likes to give up halfway, so regardless of the results, the bandit army will stick to it even more. Please also support all book friends! Thank you very much! )
Faced with the guilt of the injured battalion commander in front of him, Chen Mingyang knew that anyone could be depressed, but as the supreme commander of the first division, he had to maintain an optimistic attitude. If he is too discouraged like these soldiers in front of him, then there is almost no need to fight the next battle.
The officers and men of the Third Regiment were instructed to quickly transfer all the wounded sent back by the Xu Jiajun to the military hospital in Linzhou City for treatment. As for how many people Zuihou can survive, I'm afraid even Chen Mingyang doesn't know. What he can do now is to try his best to restore the decadent state of the soldiers, and strive to win back a city in the next battle with the Xu family.
I think so, but Chen Mingyang doesn't know why, and he has a deep sense of powerlessness. Because, when he led the third division to arrive here, whether it was a harassment war or a tough battle, he suffered at the hands of the other party. Now that even the artillery battalion is planted there, and the other side also has artillery with a range that is not inferior to that of the artillery battalion, how will this battle be fought next?
Although victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, Chen Mingyang really doesn't know that this cunning bandit leader who knows how to use soldiers next. What kind of means will be prepared against his troops? What worries him the most is that after this defeat, this kind of large-scale battle will be held.
Only by appealing to the Nanbin General Headquarters for help, and having enough artillery to suppress the enemy's artillery, could he capture those blocking positions that had been built to attack fully. In addition, relying solely on human lives to fill in, even if the three divisions are wiped out. Whether or not they will be able to capture that blocking position is unknown.
Thinking about these clearly, Chen Mingyang did not tear up the letter handed over by the battalion commander under his command, but instead asked the three regiments to form a company of soldiers. Pulling the carriage, he came to the battlefield where only corpses and stumps were left on the ground, and pulled back the corpses of every sacrificed revolutionary soldier as much as possible.
When the corpse collection team pulled back the carload of corpses, he was surprised again that the other party was very cooperative with their collection of corpses. There was no embarrassment, and even the corpses that had fallen on the hillside when the regiment attacked the mountain just now were moved to the intersection and allowed the revolutionary army to bring back the corpses.
When the carload of corpses was pulled back to Linzhou City, Chen Mingyang finally understood why the other party was so generous from the eyes of the officers and soldiers left behind, and asked them to collect the corpses and send back the wounded soldiers, it turned out that this was a psychological offensive that he couldn't refuse at all. The commander of the other party, through these wounded soldiers and corpses, told the remaining officers and soldiers of the Third Division that they should not be enemies of the Xu family, otherwise they would end up with the same hint as these people.
Now it seems that Chen Mingyang has been unconsciously yin again. Looking at these truckloads of sack-like corpses, every officer and soldier who looked at the corpse collection team couldn't help but show a sad expression of a dead rabbit and a fox. This expression is undoubtedly non-contagious, and it is very detrimental to the next step of the revolutionary army in fighting the other side.
Back at the campsite in Linzhou City, Chen Mingyang also saw the Linzhou people who stayed in the city, pointing at the vehicles transporting the corpses, and their expressions were more gloating than shock. This made Chen Mingyang more aware that in the eyes of these Linzhou people, they were undesirable objects.
Compared with the depressed mood of the Third Revolutionary Division, the Nanbin General Headquarters of the Revolutionary Army launched a series of intelligence collection work against Xu Jiajun after receiving a telegram from Chen Mingyang requesting punishment and reinforcements.
Xu Bin, who always likes to tell the people under his rule the good news, announced in front of the officers and soldiers of the new regiment that they would be officially named the old fourth regiment on the same day, and enjoy the same treatment as the previous three veteran regiments. When the officers and men who participated at the same time doubled their salaries this month, the officers and men of the entire new regiment had happy expressions on their faces.
Like these officers and soldiers, the orange people who are close to Xiangu Mountain today also sweated for Xu Jiajun when they heard the rumbling artillery fire. Until the news that Xu Jiajun defeated the revolutionary army, annihilated nearly 2,000 of its men, captured hundreds of people, and captured thousands of rifles and a few cannons.
In the form of a notice, let the joint defense teams of each city post and announce it. Still worried about Xu Jiajun, whether he would not be able to defeat the menacing revolutionary army, the people also cheered and jumped as if they were in the New Year. Those members of the joint defense team who had not yet fully returned to Xu Jiajun, as well as the recruits who were still undergoing training in the training mountain, were also stimulated by the news of the great victory. I hope to become an official Xu Jiajun as soon as possible and feel the victory that should have belonged to them.
Knowing that after this battle was over, the revolutionary army should be more honest Xu Bin in the future, while ordering the troops in the base area to strengthen vigilance to prevent the small units of the revolutionary army from infiltrating and reconnoitring. On the one hand, it ordered the base area to launch a strict search and arrest work against the intelligence personnel of various parties that may increase in the near future.
If the intelligence department has a suspicious target, but cannot prove that the other party is a spy who came to inquire about Xu Jiajun's intelligence, they will also be arrested first and released after the war. In a word, what Xu Bin has to do now is to defend the land of the four cities into an iron bucket, so that the people who are hostile to the Xu family's army can understand. The consequences of provoking Xu Jiajun are very serious!
The great victory of the main force also stimulated the various guard battalion detachments that were released by Xu Bin, and these team members received the battle reports sent by the intelligence points in each city. Not far behind, they took the initiative to attack, lurking on various trails outside Linzhou City, specifically attacking the reconnaissance detachments sent by the revolutionary army.
Seeing that this was like being confined to death in Linzhou City and unable to move, Chen Mingyang really couldn't think of a solution. Even if he will release the reconnaissance troops, increase to a company. The soldiers who were able to come back in the end lost more than half.
These sharpshooters lurking around Linzhou City made up their minds to trap them in Linzhou City as if they were knocking them apart. Unless they are willing to abandon Linzhou City and withdraw their large troops from the borders of Linzhou, this kind of torture will never stop in various ways of torturing people night and night.
The news of the defeat of the revolutionary army under the city of Linzhou spread almost throughout the entire Longhua Kingdom three days later, and the warlord leaders who were paying attention to the battle between the Gannan army and the revolutionary army. For this Xu Jiajun, which was able to defeat the main division of the revolutionary army in such a mess, many warlords close to Gannan had a strong interest in it.
But except for Ning Qingyuan, the governor of the Gannan Army, who was both happy and worried about the combat power shown by the Xu Jiajun, whether it was the revolutionary army or other surrounding warlords who sent spies to the four cities of the Xu Jiajun. Without exception, they will be arrested within a day of entering the land of the Four Cities.
If you can honestly confess your identity, you will suffer at most a lot of flesh and skin, and then you will be stuffed into the prisons of various cities by the intelligence department of the Xu Jiajun, and wait for them to be driven out of Linzhou territory after the war. The rest of the spies who dared to resist could really feel the tragic feeling that there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go down.
The fly-like village joint defense team will consume one of their bullets until they are killed or seriously injured by these joint defense teams and sent to Xu Jiajun's custody. In short, the warlords who only remembered to investigate the situation of the Xu family army at this time lost contact with each other after learning that none of the spies sent to Orange City had lost contact. I also deeply feel that this Xu family army is unusual!
Even the people of the rice country, who had been unwilling to increase military aid to Ning Qingyuan, the governor of the Gannan Army, learned that there was an extraordinary army in Linzhou, and there were people from the Eagle country behind it. In order to prevent the loss of Gannan's huge colonial interests, financial support for the Gannan army was finally increased.
Ning Qingyuan didn't realize until this time that he might lose his interests in Gannan if he didn't support him, and he was still stimulated by the news of the victory of the Xu family's army. He didn't know whether he should hate or thank Xu Jiajun. However, with the urgent military aid provided by the Mi people, Ning Qingyuan increased his armament against the Gannan Army in Anzhou.
The Battle of Anzhou, which was originally unusual, was opened up with the addition of a batch of rice-made artillery pieces of the Gannan Army. The revolutionary army, which was responsible for opening the Anju Passage, finally chose to retreat temporarily after feeling the increasing number of casualties. This made the original situation of the battle of Gannan seem to have changed unpredictably with the victory of the Xu family's army.
On the contrary, the revolutionary army made good progress in the campaign to march into southern Fujian, and now the large army has almost captured half of the territory of southern Fujian. If given some time, it is believed that it should only be a matter of time before the entire territory of southern Fujian is seized. So much so that seeing that the battle in Gannan was not going well, the generals of the Nanbin General Headquarters began to have two different strategic divergences.
Some generals advocated concentrating the superior forces of the revolutionary army and capturing the entire territory of Minnan Province in the fastest time, while others advocated increasing support for the armies of the two routes in Gannan. Strive to blossom on both sides and expand the influence of the revolutionary army. This kind of unresolved controversy caused Chen Mingyang, who had been trapped in Linzhou for more than a week, to send a telegram almost a day, requesting support from the Nanbin headquarters.
When Chen Mingyang received Huang Sicheng, the logistics minister of the Third Division, reminding them that their food reserves were less than three days, Chen Mingyang was really a little anxious. If Nanbin's supplies are not replenished, they have no other choice but to withdraw from Linzhou. Otherwise, once it really falls into the crisis of food shortage, the tens of thousands of revolutionary troops who are stuck in Linzhou may really be more than lucky.
It's just that what they don't know is that the news of the food crisis in the revolutionary army is that every day from the secret passages unknown to the revolutionary army in Linzhou City, the guard detachment that enters the city for intelligence reconnaissance reports that the revolutionary army is also waiting for the attack of the revolutionary army, waiting for Xu Bin, who is a little impatient.
Xu Bin once again made a bold decision and led the three main regiments under his command to attack the revolutionary army trapped in Linzhou. This time, no matter what, we must let these revolutionary troops get out of Linzhou as soon as possible. Since this villain refuses to take the initiative to leave, he can only take the way of driving away the guest!
