The battle for the Cantonese army to attack Canton finally began.

At night, when Huang Ke was asleep, Yang Yibing hurriedly pushed open the door and shouted, "Sir, the attack outside has begun!" ”

Huang Ke woke up in his sleep, fortunately he had been sleeping alone at this time, but he was broken into in the middle of the night, it was still a little uncomfortable, he rubbed his eyes and wanted to scold Yang Yibing, but he was stunned in his heart, as if he had just arrived at something, so he looked up and asked, "What did you just say?" The offensive began? ”

"Yes!" Yang Yibing gasped and said: "The soldier who just reconnoitred reported that the Guangdong army had exchanged fire with the Gui army more than thirty miles outside the city, and the city defense headquarters had already strengthened its vigilance, and the lights were on until now. The streets are full of Gui troops urgently mobilizing, and I have already heard that the people's troops in various places have also revolted. ”

Huang Ke put on his coat, stood up before his feet were shoeed, and said, "It seems that there is really a fight." Quickly, notify all teams to assemble. ”

"We've notified all the teams to assemble, and now they're all in combat readiness as you said." Yang Yibing replied.

Huang Ke said while putting on his shoes: "Okay, hurry up and gather all the gendarmerie, bring only shell guns and *, each of them wear two base ammunition, and wait for Lao Tzu to go to the military government building." ”

"Yes!" Yang Yibing hurriedly ran out.

"Tell all officers to assemble here!" There was a beep of assembly.

After a while, all the officers rushed to Huang Ke's place. After a period of training, these officers have acquired a preliminary sense of combat, and now they are able to react at the first time, and the team is able to move at the first time when needed.

After seeing that everyone had arrived, Huang Ke didn't talk nonsense, he said bluntly: "Gui Jun is not fast, if we want to have the right to speak in the future, we must have things in our hands." Now everyone listens to my orders: From today onwards, our merchant group escort army will be renamed the Guangzhou Revolutionary Army, do you understand? ”

"Got it!" Everyone yelled.

"Good! Now I have ordered the revolutionary army to divide into four routes and seize the remaining barracks, headquarters, police department, and city government of the junta, as long as they can control the city. You take the platoon as a unit, bring more ammunition, and if you encounter resistance, you will not be killed! But remember, don't disturb the people, are you clear? ”

"Clear," another roar underneath.

Batu and Wang Maocai will be excited, they haven't fought for a long time, and they can't make him happy if they bring so many soldiers to fight this time?

After announcing the order, Huang Ke simply left his command post and rushed directly to the junta with the well-equipped gendarmerie.

More than 80 members of the gendarmerie marched lightly and rushed towards the junta building. As soon as they arrived in front of the junta, the gendarmerie exchanged fire with the defending guards.

The soldiers of the gendarmerie at the front moved quickly with their arms* in their arms, and when they saw the soldiers standing guard in front of the junta, they pulled the trigger and fired a long shot, and several of the soldiers in the front fell to the ground after being shot in the eyebrows.

Before the rest of the junta's guards knew what was going on, a volley of bullets flew by the gendarmerie. The arms * gendarmerie fired constantly during the hand-to-hand encounter, and as soon as the bullets were lined up, more than half of the junta's guards fell.

"Don't kill people when you enter the house, just occupy it!" When advancing, Huang Ke personally shouted and conveyed the order.

Huang Ke knew that although the Guangzhou military government was corrupt and incompetent, it still played a great role in governing the localities. The eight ministries created under the junta are illustrative. If you kill all the people inside, what is the use of occupying the junta?

Although the garrison of the Gui Army and the garrison suffered heavy losses, they still fought and retreated, and relied on doors and windows to establish defensive positions.

Seeing that these people were stubbornly resisting, Huang Ke was angry, he hugged * and yelled loudly: "It's all with Lao Tzu!" ”

The light machine guns roared, and the gendarmerie began to move forward in a skirmish line, and under the cover of night, the attacking team soon moved within the effective range of the *. The guards inside did not see effective resistance, and the gendarmerie tore open the line.

That night, Huang Ke occupied the Guangzhou military government. At this time, Mo Rongxin had already fled with a bunch of personal soldiers.

The offensive on other fronts was also smooth, Wang Maocai led his men to quickly occupy the traffic arteries in the urban area of Guangzhou, and at the various traffic arteries in the urban area, the soldiers of the guards used sandbags and snake-bellied barbed wire, and behind the sandbag fortifications, a Czech light machine gun and Makqin machine gun showed their black muzzles, and patrolled around with fierce eyes.

All this indicates that the revolutionary army led by Huang Ke has occupied the city of Guangzhou overnight.

The next important step is to reassure the people and welcome Chen Jiongming into the city, and after the occupation of the government institutions, they must operate steadily. Huang Ke sent people to print a large number of notices overnight to appease the people, and at the same time, for the sake of safety in extraordinary times, all the soldiers of the revolutionary army took to the streets, temporarily replacing the functions of the police to maintain local law and order.

After several days of intense busyness, the situation in the urban area of Guangzhou has temporarily stabilized.

……………………………………………………………………………………

When Chen Jiongming and Gui Jun were on fire in the diplomacy of Guangzhou City, Wei Bangping, the director of the police department, and Li Fulin, the guard of Guanghui Town, declared independence outside the provincial capital one after another. As a result, all the river warships and the Guangzhou-San Railway were separated from the Gui system.

Then, Chen Dechun, commander of the Jiangmen Guard Army, also responded immediately, breaking away from the Gui system at the Suiyuan Fort, and in an instant, the Gui army's transportation was cut off.

The Gui army in Guangzhou fell into a siege at once, and there was only a dead end in Guangzhou, and only by breaking through the siege could there be a way out.

After evacuating Guangzhou, the military government cadres and others organized troops in the direction of Guangxi and began to break through and evacuate. Of course, Huang Ke would not let go of this good opportunity to pursue, and he ordered Batu to lead the cavalry troops to pursue the wandering Gui army. This cavalry team of only more than 30 people has been attacking everywhere and growing continuously during this time.

When Batu returned with this cavalry half a month later, it was already a cavalry team with more than 50 horses and more than 60 people.

Huang Ke knew that with his current strength, it was impossible to monopolize Guangzhou. He soon sent a telegram to Mr. Sun, in which he claimed that he had occupied Canton and invited him to come to Canton to become president.

Mr. Sun and his party were naturally happy when they saw Huang Ke say this. However, if Huang Ke is too promoted, I am afraid that there will be something inappropriate for Chen Jiongming, who is fighting outside.

Chen Jiongming has been fighting fiercely with the Gui army outside for a long time, and now he has finally driven away the Gui army, but it is cheaper to let Huang Ke take it all? Naturally, I feel uncomfortable.

Huang Ke also knew in his heart that Chen Jiongming had tens of thousands of Cantonese troops outside the city of Guangzhou, and if he really fought, not only would Guangzhou City suffer another war, but his old capital would also be wiped out.

After thinking about it, Huang Ke decided to personally send someone to send a letter to Chen Jiongming to welcome the Guangdong army back to Guangdong!
