The First Warlord of the Republic of China

Chapter 21: Falling from the Saddle

.

The marching speed of the second brigade of the first division of the spn revival army was too fast, because the second brigade directly drove cars and motorcycles to outflank, and its speed far exceeded Feng Guozhang's expectations.

When the second brigade made a detour to the rear of the Praetorian Guards and launched an attack on the Praetorian Guards, the Praetorian Guards had already been routed.

The fighting on the front line was too miserable, row after row of people fell down, and it was impossible to cause any substantial blow to the revival army.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers of the imperial guards behind were terrified and stopped their steps one after another. In addition, Feng Guozhang led his people to run away, so they naturally followed suit.

The quality of an army depends mainly on retreat. [

The army with strong combat effectiveness retreated in an orderly manner, and retreated in a planned and orderly manner. However, the retreat of the Imperial Guard directly turned into a rout.

A catastrophic defeat!

I saw that the first brigade launched an attack from the front. With the support of rapid-fire artillery, howitzers, and mortars, the first brigade of the revival army broke through the position of the Janissaries on the other side of the river without encountering any obstacles.

There is almost no resistance!

The second brigade, which was about to launch an offensive, immediately received an order from the headquarters to march towards Ningjin County in a hurry, preparing to intercept the retreat of the imperial guards.

The First Brigade received an order to drive the Imperial Guards to Ningjin County.

A chase like chasing ducks immediately started on the North China Plain. The first brigade quickly determined the division of labor, and some troops pursued the Imperial Guards as quickly as possible, driving the Imperial Guards to Ningjin County.

The other troops pursued at an even speed.

The [-]-meter sprint is completely different from the [-]-meter long-distance race. Its purpose is to keep the imperial guards at a high speed and flee in order to consume their energy.

The follow-up troops advanced at an even speed, and it would not take long to catch up with the exhausted Janissaries.

The troops responsible for the full-speed pursuit were divided into several groups, some were chasing behind, and some were on both sides to grasp the direction of the Imperial Guard's rout.

And there are reserve troops, these reserve troops ride in cars, and when the chasing troops get tired, they get out of the cars to take over the pursuit, while the original chasing troops get in the cars and continue to follow.

Under such an alternation, how could the Imperial Guard outrun the revival army?

In addition, there was a small group of troops shouting in cars. They interspersed on the battlefield and shouted to the defeated guards: "Those who squat on the ground and hold their heads will not die, and they are allowed to go home after the battle!"

run run run!

The infantry of the Imperial Guard suffered the most. Those cavalry had already disappeared with Feng Guozhang and others, but they could only run hard on two legs.

Looking at the revival army chasing up from behind, and the "bang bang bang" gunshots sounded from time to time, the infantry of the imperial guards ran faster, almost showing their strength.

The mp18 submachine guns in the hands of the soldiers of the revival army made a loud noise, and every time they fired a shot, there was a rough bang, which made the infantrymen of the Imperial Guard frightened.

In comparison, the sound of the zb-26 light machine gun is much more pleasant, but this sound is a reminder, more terrifying than those submachine guns. [

This kind of light machine gun is extremely accurate, and its effective range has reached 800 meters. In the hands of skilled soldiers, it is a sharp weapon to kill the enemy.

The chasing troops responsible for driving the sheep were absolutely ruthless when they attacked, but those who did not crouch with their heads on the ground were merciless in shooting.

Especially those motorcycles equipped with heavy machine guns, which are definitely fierce sheep-herding weapons. As long as there are infantrymen of the Imperial Guard who want to run in other directions, they will definitely sweep them away.If they obediently run in the direction they want, they won't be shot by these heavy machine guns.

This made those Janissary infantrymen who were trying to escape in vain have to use all their strength to run away.

As a result, I was excited, and it was over!After running for a while, I couldn't run anymore.

Many infantrymen of the Janissaries who couldn't run simply threw their weapons away and squatted on the ground with their heads in their arms. Damn, I won't run away, what the hell!

After a while of pursuit, the revival army behind them captured a large number of prisoners.

When these rout soldiers were driven to Ningjin County, their physical strength had reached their limit, and some rout soldiers had already run so foaming at the mouth that they fell directly to the ground with their dead bodies.

The Second Brigade had already laid a large net in Ningjin County, and immediately captured the rout soldiers who ran to Ningjin County easily.

After the war, the revival army quickly cleaned up the battlefield and seized a lot of munitions. Although the revival army didn't like these broken things, they could still be sold for some money, and they could also be distributed to the militia for training.

According to statistics, the revival army killed 5683 Imperial Guards and captured 12653 in this battle. Only more than 2000 Imperial Guards fled the battlefield.

It can be said that after this battle, the Imperial Guards of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties have completely ceased to exist.

……

In Wuhu, Anhui, Jiang Yu has been here since the electricity was turned on.

The Nanjing Provisional Government is already ready to move. It claims to have 20 militiamen. A few days ago, it sent people to threaten again. If it does not retreat in Shandong, it will send troops to crusade.

In order to stabilize the rear, Jiang Yu came to Wuhu in person, and at the same time pulled over 13 people from the second division. The second division is different from the first division. Complicated terrain operations.

The water network in the south of the Yangtze River is densely covered, so it is not convenient for Class A teachers.

And to deal with the Nanjing Provisional Government, Jiang Yu is confident that he can handle it with a Type B teacher.

"Commander-in-Chief, the great victory in Dezhou. Our army wiped out most of the Imperial Guards. Only more than [-] people fled. The staff department called to ask how to deal with these prisoners." Tang Hanyuan handed him a telegram, and Jiang Yu took it The telegram looked at it and said without hesitation: "Bring them all back and send them to the mine for mining."

Nima, it's all free labor!

These are all high demographic dividends!

"In addition, let Jiang Fangzhen deal with the Dezhou braided army as soon as possible, and the war cannot be delayed for a long time." Jiang Yu said to Tang Hanyuan. [

"Yes!"

……

On February 2, under Yuan Shikai's instruction and promise, the Nanjing Provisional Government decided to crusade against the Ba'ath Party and mobilized nearly 25 troops to invade southern Anhui.

Jiang Yu personally went to the front line of Ma'anshan to command, and through flexible and interspersed tactics, the 6 people formed by the Nanjing Provisional Government were tortured to the point of crying.

The soldiers and horses drawn up by the Nanjing Provisional Government were first of all unprofessional, and then they were established on the basis of the new southern army in the late Qing Dynasty.

The equipment of the Southern New Army was very poor. They didn't even have heavy machine guns and artillery. They also lacked automatic firepower. They were completely vulnerable to the revival army with a large number of artillery and automatic firepower and a tenacious will to fight.

The battle lasted for nearly six hours. Due to the lack of powerful weapons, the revival army fought unrestrainedly. After interspersing, they used machine guns and submachine guns to fight close to each other. When the trigger was pulled, a large number of people could be wiped out immediately.

The Southern Revolutionary Army was terribly beaten, but only a few thousand casualties occurred, and they were all over the place.

Sun Dapao was almost scared to pee this time. I heard that after learning that the revolutionary army was defeated on the front line, he even packed up his clothes and prepared to escape.

The Independence Battalion stationed in Shanghai also had a fierce exchange of fire with the Shanghai Revolutionary Army after the battle broke out. After nearly five hours of fighting, the Shanghai Independence Battalion drove the Shanghai Revolutionary Army out.

After Jiang Yu led troops into southern Jiangsu, he ignored Nanjing, but went straight to Changzhou, Xi, and Suzhou, and continued to implement the style of grabbing territory.

Changzhou, Xi, and Suzhou are all rich and prosperous places, not to mention Shanghai. The tax revenue of Shanghai alone can support three divisions. It has always been a hot spot for modern warlords.

Jiang Yu's roots in southern Jiangsu are extremely deep, and Jiang Yuanchuan is also a wealthy businessman in southern Jiangsu. Many members of the East China Chamber of Commerce organized by Jiang Yu are from southern Jiangsu.

In terms of foundation, Jiang Yu's foundation in southern Jiangsu is much stronger than that of Sun Dapao.

As soon as he swung south of Jiangsu, although he was resisted by those big landlords, he still occupied Changzhou, Xi, and Suzhou at an extremely fast speed.

Southern Jiangsu has produced literary talents since ancient times. This is a region with a large number of talents, and it is also the most prosperous region in China's economy. This is definitely the best place in China.

In Shandong, after Jiang Fangzhen dealt with the imperial guards, he encircled the main force in Dezhou again. In the first few days, he still besieged and did not attack.

Three days later, the revival army successfully dug a tunnel into the city.

After nightfall, the revival army entered the city through tunnels.As soon as the revival army entered the city, the braided army had already announced the end of the day. Street fighting was the strength of the revival army, and automatic firepower could exert a great advantage in phased battles.

After the revival army entered the city, there was a fierce battle with the braided army. The braided army has a fighting style that is not afraid of death, but this time it is not applicable.

Often the reason why the braided army is not afraid of death is because Zhang Xun promised them that they can do whatever they want within three days after entering the city, whether it is robbery or rape.

However, this battle is really about to lose one's life.

When the revival army entered the city, the morale of the braided army collapsed immediately. The battle didn't last long, only took more than three hours. More than 1 people were killed and more than [-] were captured. Disguised as ordinary people and hid.

Zhang Xun, the commander of the braided army, was shot dead in the back office of the Dezhou government.

The commander-in-chief who restored the Qing Dynasty for three days in the future has fallen from his saddle and was ordered to go to Huangquan.

The news that the Imperial Guard Army, Braided Army, and Revolutionary Army were defeated by the Renaissance Army shocked the whole country.

The second is coming!

Brothers are awesome!If I didn't read it, I'd blow up the book I read, even though it took four days.
