Chapter 112 How can you live alone?
Jiang Zhiqing's head is very flexible, Chen Qimei likes to ask this guy's opinion for everything, and every time he guesses, he doesn't seem to miss it. Including the last time he said that Yang Xiaolin would not fight Seoul, he was also right by him.
Although some people do not understand military affairs, they are born to analyze the situation.
Jiang Zhiqing shook his head and said, "The Beiyang Army alone will definitely not work!" But as long as we can hold Beijing, once Commander Yang recovers his vitality in the northeast, we can fight with Lao Maozi, although we are not sure of winning, but we are not necessarily going to lose. ”
Chen Qimei turned her head to look at him: "I think so too." Zhiqing, I want you to go to the Northeast, go now, how about it? ”
Jiang Zhiqing's face suddenly changed greatly: "Master Chen, did I do something wrong?" ”
Chen Qimei waved her hand busily: "That's not what you mean, the current situation is just like you said, our winning side is all in the northeast, it's still too late to bet on it." ”
Jiang Zhiqing immediately understood what Chen Qimei meant. Chen Qimei wanted to take the Green Gang out, relying on Sun Wen. And Sun Wen now supports Yuan Shikai again, and Yuan Shikai is counting on Yang to fight ghosts to save him. Therefore, if China wants to seek a better development in the future, it is not to follow Chen Qimei, but to go to the Northeast.
Chen Qimei didn't explain much, he believed that Jiang Zhiqing could understand: "Hey, Master Chen, my biggest wish in this life is to live a peaceful life with the brothers of the Green Gang, and you can't mess with me." As I said, for you, the Green Gang is too small, and Shanghai is too small! Zhiqing, let's go to the Northeast. Yang Dagui is preparing to fight a world with his fists, and he is short of people, you go, you can have a better development. ”
Jiang Zhiqing hesitated a little: "Master Chen, I'm just afraid that I won't be welcomed there, and you know that I also bumped into him when I was in Beijing." ”
Chen Qimei smiled: "He can carry such a piece of the world in Liaodong, how can he take your little thing to heart in his heart?" Du Yuesheng's boat was about to leave. There shouldn't be any problems this time, you go with Du Yuesheng. I'll write you a letter, we took good care of him when he came to Shanghai, and he will give face. ”
Jiang Zhiqing thought for a moment and nodded: "Hey, then I'll listen to Chen Ye's orders." ”
Chen Qimei laughed: "Now you call me Chen Ye, when you soar in the future, remember to help Chen Ye." ”
Chen Qimei said that this sentence was just an expectation for Jiang Zhiqing, people can't predict fate, just like when the head of Xiong Daban walked out of the ruined temple, he didn't expect that he could be earth-shattering. Comrade Jiang Zhiqing also did not expect that this trip to the northeast would become a turning point in his life.
What some people lack is just an opportunity!
The city of Beijing in this era is far from being as large as it is in the 21st century, and if we had a mobile phone, we would not have received a short message from Hebei Mobile to welcome you if we bought a house here. Beijing is Beijing, regionally speaking, it is the area within the Second Ring Road today, and that's about it.
Pinggu is no longer the city of Beijing. But Jiang Baili arranged the outer position of the defense line here, and Jin Yunpeng was stationed in Pinggu with 3,000 soldiers, and he had been fighting with the Russians for two whole days.
Although Lao Maozi did not bomb Beijing, the impact on the periphery in the past two days has never stopped. The constant bombing and non-stop charge, they really wanted to hit the soldiers under Beijing when Yuan Shikai became the president, so as to add some atmosphere to Lao Yuan.
However, the 3,000 troops around Jin Yunpeng were stubbornly guarding Pinggu. The Russians stormed for two days and did not get past them! The battlefield is a place where soldiers grow the fastest, and General Akpolier is well aware that as the battle progresses, it gets longer and longer. The Beiyang Army is really getting more and more elite.
Today is the third day, and Akpolil has already given a death order to the Russian troops on the front line, and this line of defense must be conquered before the sun sets.
Jin Yunpeng couldn't fight anymore, there were less than 1,000 of the more than 3,000 brothers left, he sent a signal to Duan Qirui for help, and asked the rear to send him a little reinforcements, if he didn't give reinforcements, it would be okay to let himself retreat a little back, right? Anyway, when they came here, Duan Qirui said personally, as long as he withstood it for two days, it would be enough for the president to take office safely.
Now that he has completed the task, Jin Yunpeng said very pitifully, he said that he has always respected General Duan very much for so many years, and he has never been disrespectful in the slightest. If he could, he would definitely stick to it, but now he really can't hold it. There is no difference between not letting himself withdraw and letting him die here.
He begged Duan Qirui to be gracious, and for the sake of his family, there was still an old mother who needed to serve, and gave himself a way to live.
As a general, this is really the limit, it is equivalent to pleading. Jin Yunpeng is a filial son, his family was poor since he was a child, and his mother raised their eight siblings by selling pancakes. Everyone in the Beiyang Army knows that it's okay for everyone to scold each other's mothers in person, but you can't scold Jin Yunpeng's mother. He carried the old lady out and begged to retreat, that is, he really couldn't fight.
Duan Qirui didn't reply to him, just as Lao Yuan's inauguration speech in Beijing was published in the newspaper, he sent a copy to Jin Yunpeng, and said very clearly that there were no reinforcements, whether he wanted to retreat or not, he would do it himself.
I saw the newspaper sent by Duan Qirui, on which Yuan Shikai told all the Beiyang soldiers that they were not allowed to retreat, because behind them was Beijing. When Lao Yuan asked the Beiyang Army to fight for every inch of land and defend every inch of grass, and asked them to regard the position as their own grave, Jin Yunpeng knew that he could not go back.
His tears came down in a flash, and a dignified seven-foot man actually let out a cry like a baby. The more than 1,000 soldiers who were still alive on the battlefield still had a glimmer of hope that they could withdraw, after all, they had really tried their best in the past two days. They ask themselves if they are now worthy of their conscience and worthy of their people.
But when they saw the commander's appearance, their hearts were sad, and they all realized that maybe this was really their own grave.
Before they could get rid of their grief, a Chinese with a white flag came across the opposite side, and the man waved the white flag as he walked: "Fellow Beiyang military masters! The Russians asked me to bring you one more message, it's still too late to surrender! Soon the Russians will open fire again! This time, they have also brought in heavy artillery, so surrender! ”
Jin Yunpeng's thoughts were called back from his sadness by this shout, he really didn't want to die, he really thought of his mother just now, and the situation where his mother pulled him to sell pancakes on the street seemed to be so clear since he was a child. He suddenly felt how happy it would be if he could be by his mother's side again and help her sell.
But none of this is possible. Surrender? He won't.
Everyone has their own strong times, and in order to make himself stand up to the sky in the eyes of his son, Belle Ye fired a gun against independence in Mongolia. Jin Yunpeng is the same, although his mother has no education, he can be taught to be a down-to-earth person since he was a child, and he must be responsible to be a man.
He didn't want to let his mother down, and if it was at the cost of his mother's shame to see people in the future, it would be better to let him die.
He took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes: "Someone." ”
A herald of the Beiyang Army immediately ran to him: "General." ”
Jin Yunpeng took out a piece of paper. Wrote a letter home:
"Mother is above, the child is in the bloody battle of the Russians today, and he has fallen into a situation of death and no life. The child is taught by the adults, fights for the country and the nation, and is fearless in his heart, but he can not even rest assured that the health of the adults is not safe. If you can't do your filial piety, you can't have both loyalty and filial piety! Most of the younger siblings are adults, but it is difficult to trust them to do things recklessly, and adults have gastrointestinal discomfort. Please change your clothes and eat on time, remember, remember! ”
He would have liked to write more. Because he found that he really had a lot to say at this time, but he felt as if the tears were about to come down again. So he hastily ended the letter and handed the letter to the herald: "Take it back to General Duan, and say that I can't go back." Ask him to take care of my family. ”
The herald's eyes were a little moist, and he nodded, "Yes." ”
There were some other brothers who also wrote suicide notes at this time. Give it to the herald and take him to the rear. Jin Yunpeng no longer commanded anything, and personally picked up a rifle and lay at the forefront of the position.
The Russians left for more than ten minutes after giving the ultimatum, and seeing that the Beiyang Army still did not give them an answer, a new round of shelling immediately began, followed by a new charge, and the Russians knew that this could also be the last charge. It can be seen from the firepower of the soldiers of the Beiyang Army last time that they have supported to the limit.
The fierce gunfire sounded immediately, and Lao Maozi was obviously determined to win this time, and actually lined up a group charge formation. A battalion of Russian GIs pressed on the positions of the Beiyang Army in three directions. The soldiers of the Beiyang Army who crawled out of the Russian artillery could not stop the rapid advance of the three-way Russia, and they were easily killed into the position by Lao Maozi.
The Beiyang soldiers really remembered Yuan Shikai's words, and none of them retreated! He engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Russians in the trenches. Jin Yunpeng can only command more than a hundred soldiers around him now, and he led this team to rush left and right in the trenches, and the already worn military uniform on his body was quickly dyed red.
This Beiyang Army really broke out at this time with a combat power that they themselves couldn't even believe! Some lost their arms, some broke their legs, and some of their intestines flowed out of their abdomen but they didn't care, they waved their weapons and smashed them at the enemies who jumped into their trenches.
Jin Yunpeng and his troops finally stood in front of the battle flag of the Beiyang Army, and the battle lasted for more than an hour, and the flag was still fluttering in the wind.
When Major General Mardinov led his troops to occupy the entire trench, Jin Yunpeng was covered in blood and leaned against the military flag and was unable to get up, if it weren't for the slight tremor at the corner of his lips, if it weren't for the fact that he was very brave just now and stabbed to death a Russian soldier who wanted to cut down the banner, Mardinov would have thought that this was definitely a dead man.
Really, the major general really did not think about how a person could still be alive when he was injured so much.
"Do you need a military doctor?"
The Major General used a very respectful title and did not mention the word surrender. Even if he could see that perhaps the most brilliant doctor could not save this Chinese now, he still had some faint expectations, even if Jin Yunpeng did not give him any answer, as long as he did not make any objections, he would call the Russian military doctor.
It's a pity, Jin Yunpeng still gave him an answer, he first touched a pistol from the ground, and fired a shot against his temple, but there was no bullet. Then he took another bayonet at hand and thrust it into his chest, but unfortunately the bayonet was blunt, and his strength was too small to insert it.
Watching this Chinese make these two actions in a row, Martinov shook his head: "You don't have to do this, for you you have won this war, I thought I could break through this position in one day, but you blocked it for three days." ”
Jin Yunpeng smiled miserably: "None of the three thousand brothers are greedy, how can I live alone?" ”
Martinov was silent for a moment, then took out his pistol, pointed the muzzle at Jin Yunpeng, and pulled the trigger. After a gunshot, the major general let out a sigh: "Collect all their bodies and hand them over to the Beiyang government in front." (To be continued......)
