Fengxian Jiangshan

Don't look at the fact that Fengjun has just gone through civil strife, but after Zhang Tinglan came to power, he successfully forced Japan to sign the alliance under the city, and the morale of the entire army has been fully restored.In addition, facing the completion of the Jifeng Railway, the three eastern provinces have been linked together, and Zhang Tinglan can mobilize more troops. Zhang Tinglan still has sufficient confidence in dealing with the Beiyang Army.

The generals of the Feng army also urgently needed to prove themselves through a battle. Yang Yuting was personally responsible for drawing up the battle plan, and a huge map was displayed in front of everyone.

Yang Yuting pointed to the map in person and said to everyone: "This time Xu Shuzheng led three divisions of the original participating army, but the actual number was less than two divisions, plus the Fifth Beiyang Division, the first division of the Yuan Yi Army, and the first division of the Northwest Frontier Defense Army. The Second Mixed Brigade, with a total of 5000 people, broke into the territory of Rehe from Gubeikou and Xifengkou. Wan Fulin's unit in charge of defense was defeated, and the Beiyang Army continued to "press", directly threatening Chengde."

Yang Yuting introduced the deployment of the Beiyang Army. Zhang Tinglan went on to say: "Chengde lost, Rehe was lost, Rehe was lost, and the northeast and west gates were taken down. Therefore, this battle can only be won but not defeated. It must not be given to the Beiyang Army. Watch out for opportunities in the three eastern provinces."

"Xu Shuzheng's border guards are trained very strictly. I heard that they have been heavily armed by the Japanese recently. They have plenty of guns and artillery. They are also an opponent that should not be underestimated." Zhu Qinglan also said beside him.

Zhang Tinglan nodded: "Xiao Xu is highly valued by the old Duan, and he still has some skills, but this time we will let this little Zhuge fall into the sand, and try to completely wipe out the main force of the participating army. The old Duan's main support is that as long as Xiao Xu is killed, the old Duan can only get out and go home to take care of the child."

Yang Yuting also smiled and said: "That's right, Duan Qirui really can't be allowed to stay in the central government anymore, otherwise, what kind of face will we put on Fengjun?"

Yang Yuting pointed to the map again.Then he said: "This time we will divide our forces into two groups, one as the main force to aid Chengde, and the other from Shanhaiguan, take Xifengkou into our hands, cut off Xu Shuzheng's retreat, and try to keep all the participating troops in Rehe!"

Hearing this battle plan, all the generals present were also very excited, eager to try.At the beginning, Lao Zhang sent troops to pass.Duan Qirui was almost defeated, but in the end, he failed to win the battle, which gave the old Duan a chance to breathe. Now the whole Fengjun is working hard to pull the old Duan down. [

Zhang Tinglan looked at the crowd.Then he said: "I personally led the troops to assist Chengde, mainly including the 27th Division, the Rehe First Cavalry Brigade, the Fengtian Heavy Artillery Regiment, two Air Force Squadrons, and an armored vehicle brigade, with a total of 2 people. In addition, there are in the direction of Shanhaiguan Jiang Dengxuan is in charge of the command, and Ding Chao is the deputy. Your task is to start after the battle begins. Spread along the Great Wall, take down the main pass, and then guard against death to prevent Xiao Xu from slipping away."

"As ordered!"

Zhang Tinglan arranged the troops to participate in the battle.Everyone hurried to get ready.Zhang Tinglan found his father Zhang Zuoxiang again, and the two had to discuss some things.

"Father, with 3 people fighting against Xu Shuzheng's 3 people, I am very sure that nothing will happen, but if we want to continue to expand the results of the war, and even annex Chahar and Suiyuan, this number of people is definitely not enough. Fengjun must To expand the military, at least increase the number of troops to 20."

When Zhang Zuoxiang heard it, he couldn't help being a little surprised: "Zhuoyan, this is equivalent to doubling the number of troops at once. Can it guarantee the combat effectiveness of the army? Can the finances bear it?"

"Fengjun implemented the militia system. Now the total number of militiamen in the three provinces exceeds 30. Basically, they have undergone more than three months of military training. If they are placed in other areas, they can directly carry guns and serve as regular troops. Our Fengjun The control is relatively strict. In addition, after expanding the new army, I plan to adopt the method of matching old and new. The first-line elite troops maintain about one-third of the recruits. After being led by veterans, they will soon be able to form combat effectiveness. Second-line army recruits To account for more than half, this ratio can basically keep the combat effectiveness unchanged."

"As for the financial problem, you don't have to worry about it. I got [-] tons of gold from Russia and shipped it back to Fengtian Bank. With this gold as a basis, we have absolutely no problem printing another [-] to [-] million Fengtian notes. In addition I have already investigated clearly that there are at least hundreds of tons of gold in the hands of Belarusian leader Kolchak, as long as we get all this gold in our hands, we will pay for our military expansion.”

"Zhuoyan, Belarus really has so much money, don't you just hear it?"

"Father, it is absolutely true. The Tsar has plundered for hundreds of years, and the accumulation is quite appalling. It is not surprising that there are hundreds of tons of gold."

Zhang Zuoxiang couldn't help being speechless for a while, if he could really get his hands on this windfall, expanding the army would not be a problem. It seemed that his son had thought everything through, and Zhang Zuoxiang nodded in satisfaction.

"Zhuoyan, since this is the case, after the battle in Rehe is over, you immediately start to reorganize the army, give new designations, and dismantle the original system. Those who should be taken down should be taken down. Don't be soft-hearted, everything will be taken care of by dad!"

Zhang Zuoxiang has experienced a lot of troubles for a long time, so he doesn't understand why Zhang Tinglan wants to expand and reorganize the army on a large scale. In fact, he is strengthening the control of the army and clearing out all the old forces.This is also a radical change, eradicating all the imprints of Zhang Zuolin's era.For this kind of thing, Zhang Zuoxiang certainly supports it conditionally.

After Zhang Tinglan and his father discussed it properly, they immediately acted, commanded the army, and dispatched troops to rescue Chengde as quickly as possible.

"Deputy Marshal, something is wrong, the Beiyang Army has reached Guangren Ridge!"

After Sun Liechen, who was sitting in Chengde, got the news, his head suddenly became dizzy. He hurried to the front of the map and checked it carefully.Guangren Mountain is only [-] kilometers away from Chengde, and it is the most important barrier to the west of Chengde. If Xu Shuzheng takes over here, Chengde will completely become an isolated city. [

"Go, call Wan Fulin over here."

After a while, Wan Fulin ran over with gauze still hanging from one arm. Xu Shuzheng led his troops into Rehe, and Wan Fulin also commanded his subordinates to fight a bloody battle. He was also injured and had to lose back to Chengde in the end.

"Deputy Marshal, what are your orders?"

"Brigade Commander Wan, the Beiyang Army has invaded Guangren Ridge. This is the west gate of Chengde. There must be no mistakes. You have to rely on you to guard this place."

"Don't worry, deputy commander, I would rather die in Guangrenling this time than take a step back!"

Wan Fulin was considered a mighty general, and Sun Liechen also nodded, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brigade Commander Wan, news has come from Fengtian that reinforcements will catch up as quickly as possible. Three days! As long as we can hold In three days, reinforcements will be able to arrive in Chengde, and we will be able to turn the crisis into safety."

Wan Fulin hurriedly said: "The humble job guarantees to complete the task!" After finishing speaking, Wan Fulin hurriedly led the troops to set up defenses.Sun Liechen was on the verge of fear, and now he only had 7000 troops in his hands. If he wanted to compete with the more than 3 Beiyang Army, the strength of the army was too great.

At this time, Xu Shuzheng was full of ambition, and he and Feng Jun had already become enemies of life and death.Since the assassination of Zhang Zuolin, the relationship between Fengjun and the Japanese has dropped to the extreme, and a battle almost broke out.An enemy's enemy is a friend, and the relationship between the Anhui Clan and the Japanese developed rapidly.

Lao Duan borrowed a lot of money to buy a large number of Japanese arms, and at the same time the army participating in the war was greatly expanded.Of course, the First World War had already ended at this time, and the participating army had lost its name. Lao Duan had already promised Xu Shuzheng that as long as he took Rehe, it would open the door to the Northwest, and the participating army would be officially reorganized into the Northwest Frontier Defense Army.

Xiao Xu is also gearing up, vowing to show off his skills and let Feng Jun taste the power.In the temporary headquarters, Xu Shuzheng said to the generals under his opponent: "Everyone, Chengde is ahead. As long as Chengde is taken, Rehe will return to the hands of the central government. Everyone must fight hard and show the prestige of the participating army."

"Qu Tongfeng, Commander of the First Division, you are in charge of leading the troops to attack Guangren Ridge and take down the west gate of Chengde. Chen Wenyun, Commander of the Second Division, led the troops to detour from the south, attack Dashimiao Town, and break into the urban area of ​​Chengde. The other troops serve as reserves and can be augmented at any time."

After Xu Shuzheng finished his assignments, he said to everyone: "This operation must be done in one go and Chengde is in our hands. The Prime Minister and I will never be stingy with rewards for fighting bravely. If we are against the enemy, we will be severely punished. "

"Please don't worry about the supervisor, I will do my best to make Fengjun feel good!"

When Xu Shuzheng saw his confident subordinates, he was also very satisfied, and immediately ordered them to launch an attack. Qu Tongfeng personally commanded his subordinates to attack Guangren Ridge in three ways.This is the key to breaking through Chengde, and Qu Tongfeng is also the most attentive. From the beginning of the war, he has shown the ability to watch the house.

A total of more than [-] artillery pieces aimed at the Feng army's defensive troops and launched a fierce shelling.On the battlefield, the mountains shook and the ground shook, flying sand and rocks, and Wan Fulin personally commanded at the front line. The fierce artillery fire from the Beiyang Army made him unable to lift his head.

"Damn it, the tiger in the mountain, the monkey is the king! If all the heavy artillery from the Fengjun is brought in, you will still be rampant!"

While cursing, Wan Fulin directed his subordinates to use the rocky bunkers to protect themselves.However, in this round of shelling, more than [-] unlucky people were hit by pieces, and more people were injured by flying stones, and their heads were broken.

After the shelling was over, the Beiyang army all over the mountains rushed towards Fengjun frantically, and Wan Fulin's eyes widened: "You bastards, hit me hard, don't let these bastards go."

The fierce offensive and defensive battle kicked off. Xu Shuzheng, who was in the headquarters, did not put all his thoughts on the battle in front of him.Just knowing that fighting on the battlefield is the work of a reckless man, Xiao Xu wants to use a better method to pry open the gate of Chengde.

"Commander He, people go to high places, and water flows to low places. Fengjun is just a peaceful prince, and Prime Minister Beiyang Duan is the rightful central "government". You are a smart person, and you must not choose the wrong team. Ah!" (To be continued...)
