Chapter 57: Waiting for you
The war was like this, although the Russians and the puppet army combined with more than 10,000 people, they were not prepared for the sudden blow of the ferocious fire of the commando, and they collapsed in an instant. The Mongol puppet army fled with all their might, and the Russian forces lost their stop after their battalion commander was killed.
At this time, if they are pursued, the troops of more than 10,000 people are likely to be wiped out. But Wu Peifu did this, and when the gap had been torn open, he did not expand the results of the battle, and he followed the enemies who fled, and he did not even count how much he had achieved in this first battle.
Without the slightest lingering, the assault team quickly marched north on the corpse of the enemy, aiming at Tokto.
Tuoketo used to be a small town at the junction of Mongolia, Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. During the Qing Dynasty, it was the main place of trade between the Mongols and Han Chinese, so it had a large population and prosperous commerce. There was a military camp here, where more than 200 Qing troops were stationed, and later the revolution came, and this army was subordinated to the Beiyang Army.
After Guangxu fled to Mongolia, more than 200 people supported the restored Qing Dynasty, and in order to prevent Yuan Shikai from attacking him, Guangxu strengthened the number of guards here, and the number of troops increased from more than 200 to 1,000. Later, when the Russians attacked Beijing, in order to secure the transportation lines of the Russian troops fighting in Zhangjiakou, Tuoketo was built into a small material transfer station, and in addition to the more than 1,000 puppet troops, a company of Russian troops was also stationed here.
After Wu Zhaolin came out of Daqingshan, he didn't hide his whereabouts to a certain extent, and pounced straight towards Tuoketuo.
Stessel was not too alarmed when he learned that a Chinese force of about 2,000 men had been killed from Daqingshan, and he sent two regiments of Russian troops to follow behind, and on the other hand sent a telegram to the defenders of Tokto, telling them to quickly set up a defensive line to block the Chinese troops.
At this time, Stessel did not know that it was Wu Zhaolin who was prominently removed, and he thought that it was just a small army of Chinese. The rout of the 10,000 army may only be due to a surprise attack by the other side, and the commander was killed on the battlefield, and the Chinese's combat effectiveness should be limited, otherwise the opportunity not to expand the results should not be missed.
Let the defenders of Tokto block this group of Chinese, and then the troops of two regiments press up from the rear, it is enough to solve this small trouble.
When the Russian troops in Tokto learned that the Chinese were coming to "invade," they did not dare to slack off, and immediately gathered the leaders of the Mongolian puppet army and the Russians living here to discuss the matter of jointly blocking the Chinese. Subsequently, it was agreed that the Mongolian puppet army would be responsible for the tactics of frontal blockade and Russian attacks from the flank. And also organized both the Russians in the city and the pro-Russian Mongols.
Lao Maozi's strategy cannot be said to be incorrect, and they have enough time, both the Russians here and Stessel think that they are completely sure that they will wipe out this group of small Chinese troops from Daqingshan outside the city of Tokto, so they did not report this situation to the Russian Supreme Commander Akberlil, who is now in Mongolia, at the first time.
Dawn. The fortifications of Tokto had been arranged, and the Russian ensign led the Russian army in a quiet ambush in the field. In those Mongolian puppet armies, they were also waiting solemnly in the construction of good fortifications. Those Mongol puppet troops were highly motivated at this time. Their leaders even pledged to the Russians that they were willing to fight to the death for His Majesty the Great Tsar and for the great Russian army.
But when Wu Zhaolin appeared in front of them with the commando team, he didn't play anything with these people, let alone make any tactical arrangements. Fifty chariots with two poles lined up and rumbled towards the positions of the Mongol puppet army.
These Mongol puppet troops did not have much combat experience in the first place, and they did not even have the necessary military training. Their heavy machine guns fired desperately at the Chinese tanks on the opposite side. But the bullet had no other use than to make some noise and add some momentum to the tank's charge!
The leader of the puppet army, who had just vowed to fight to the death for the great Tsar, turned white at this time! He didn't react to what was happening when the Chinese tanks rushed into their positions, until the roar of the Gatling guns resounded throughout the position, and he didn't need to react. More than 1,000 people scattered at once!
Wu Zhaolin's cavalry only came up from behind at this time, and the discarded blocking position was full of discarded guns and ammunition. The scattered puppet army did not pursue them, and the cavalry spared these enemies, let alone the Russian troops of the company that was still lying in ambush in the field waiting for the Chinese to attack from the flank after the attack on the position was blocked, and drove straight into the town of Tokto!
The so-called resistance forces inside have not yet reacted to what is happening, they are all temporarily organized, and they all think that they may not have to go to the battlefield, and those who are soldiers outside should be able to block the Chinese troops.
As a result, the gunfire had just sounded for less than ten minutes, and they had not even heard the majestic "Ula" sound when the great Russian troops charged, how could the Chinese come to the front?
More than 500 people stood in fear on the largest square in the town with guns, looking at the group of Chinese cavalry that had scattered in a semi-circle and surrounded them, and they did not know what to do for a while.
Two armored vehicles drove in front of these people, and the huge steel body really made those guys tremble a little, and as the machine gun muzzle on the roof of the armored car slowly turned to them, some clever people knelt down and threw their hands on the ground.
At this time, Wu Peifu rode his horse to an armored car with the words "Z1001" written on it, and knocked on the roof of the armored car with his horse: "Brother pole, what should these people do?" ”
The head of the second pole came out of it: "I said, do you really don't know the way?" ”
Wu Peifu really didn't know what to do. Compared with the senior bandit Erpolezi, Wu Peifu is a very kind person, and he has never done anything like murder and arson. Moreover, this time Zaitao made it clear that there should be three policies towards the pro-Russian Mongols, and they could not be killed all at once.
But Wu Peifu felt that he didn't seem to have time to distinguish which category these people belonged to one by one. So he really can't make up his mind now.
It's not a war, it's a killing, and killing and fighting a war are two different things.
The second pole looked at his embarrassed look, and he didn't say anything more. Brother Pole has always liked to do things that others dare not do, if you are afraid, let the second pole come, absolutely no problem.
As soon as the head drilled into the car, the machine gun on the roof of the armored car immediately went off, and the bullets flew towards the many people on the opposite side who had already laid down their weapons! Wu Peifu did not hesitate, immediately picked up his submachine gun, followed and fired, and the soldiers also opened fire.
In more than ten seconds, when Wu Peifu swept away all the bullets in the chamber, he found that the people on the other side had all fallen in a pool of blood. I don't know what Wu Peifu suddenly felt like he was going to collapse, and in this short period of ten seconds, he shot hundreds of people who had already laid down his weapons, as if he was more tired than fighting the enemy on the battlefield for several days.
"General Wu! We caught the local mayor of Tokto, and some guys who do things for the Russians! ”
Before Wu Peifu could get rid of the feeling of prostration, a team of Chinese soldiers walked over with more than a dozen gray-faced guys, led by the fat man who looked very round, and he had the intention of pleading, but before he could think of the wording, his whole head was stunned after seeing the corpse in the ground, and he lay on the ground with a pop.
The second pole came out of the car again at this time: "What are these scumbags still kept?" Cut them all! Now the troops are divided into four routes, the demolition team is going to blow up the Russian barracks and warehouses for me, the propaganda team is going to put up notices immediately, and the ordinary people are honestly staying at home and not allowed to go out on the streets! The cavalry brothers searched the town, and all the Russians killed me, and the harborers were equally killed! ”
The cavalry squad leader was stunned for a moment, and killed them all? Does it include women and children? When he was about to ask a little more clearly, Wu Peifu immediately said: "Execution!" Execute as ordered, not a single one is left! “
"Yes!"
Wu Peifu knew very well that at this time, giving such an order to the second pole was tantamount to directly ordering the slaughter, but Wu Peifu knew that he had to support the second pole. First of all, it was right to do so, their force must cause great panic and anger among the Russians, and slaughter was the best way to do it.
Also, Wu Peiyi really has the idea of wanting to change the court now, and he wants to follow Commander Yang in the future. Wu Peifu knew that he had to accept Commander Yang's style. Commander Yang is a beast, so he has to learn to be a beast.
The second pole was obviously quite satisfied with Wu Peifu's attitude: "Hehe, Ziyu, you are busy here, I'll go outside and take a look." We seem to have missed a Russian unit just now, so I'm going to chase after it. ”
Wu Peifu nodded: "Whether you chase it or not, you have to come back in twenty minutes, we will only stay here for an hour." An hour later we continued on to Wuchuan. ”
After all, the second pole did not catch up with the Russian troops of that company, and they rested for an hour in Tokto, that is, had a breakfast, and then replenished the food. The Russians' barracks and quartermaster depots here were bombed by them, and there were not many military supplies, because Lao Maozi's supplies were very tight now, but even if they were empty, they would be bombed.
By the time the pursuers of the two regiments sent by Stersar arrived here, it was already noon, and Wu Peifu and Erpolezi had already left, and in addition to the black smoke, there were only ruins left of the Russian barracks and the heads of people all over the ground.
On top of a large tree outside the ruins of the Russian barracks, the bodies of more than a dozen Russian soldiers were hung high, their shirts were all stripped off, and a bloody word was carved on the back of each person, which together was exactly one sentence: "We are waiting for you in Wuchuan."
