The Heroic Age of the Late Qing Dynasty

Soldiers in the army were forbidden to spread the news among themselves.

How could it be stopped? Everyone knows how many soldiers were chased out.

No one came back, and everyone knew about it. As for being killed by the Red Bandits,

How many people, this is not just a louse on a monk's head, it's obvious?

The order made the entire Beiyang New Army feel a sense of low pressure.

They also began to become silent.

This is the result of the separation of officers and soldiers, the feudal army and the capitalist

The Yi army basically has this problem, even if the entire Beiyang New Army is in

In the low pressure, the atmosphere was obviously not right. But these officers also thought it was normal.

For the officers of the Beiyang New Army, the soldiers' opinions were not important;

Just be obedient and charge when you are told to. They all think that in China,

There is definitely no one who can match their new army. It is precisely because of this self-confidence that

When they fought, they were always calm and composed, and mysteriously confident.

Faced with such casualties, Wang Yingkai did not think about retreating.

Although I have some ideas in my mind, now is not the time to retreat.

If they retreated after only encountering a surprise attack, then the Beiyang New Army would not have to

They fought a war, and they never dared to march into Shaanxi again.

And many officers actually did not think of retreating.

He said that there was no army in China that could resist the Beiyang New Army.

It is China's most powerful military force.

After finishing his business, Wang Yingkai shouted, "Disband camp and continue moving forward."

The Beiyang New Army continued to march towards Xi'an, but this time the army's march became

More cautious, with the bullets loaded throughout the whole process, rolling forward in a completely defensive posture

Enter.

After walking for a while, another messenger came on horseback and reported: "Report to the king

Commander, the vanguard encountered red bandits at Chishui, 20 kilometers from Huazhou.

Breaking through the Red Bandits' defense line, this is the battle report.

"

Chapter 343:

Wang Yingkai took it and took a look. The writing on it was very simple, and a

A number of red bandits blocked the attack. When Wang Yingkai was reading the battle report, he

He didn't know that he would have to face not only the troops guarding Tongguan and stationed in Xi'an, but also the

If the PLA had satellites, they would be able to see the

The People's Liberation Army in Sichuan, Dali, Pucheng and other places had already rushed to Huayin and other places at full speed.

Surrounded by the land.

The Qing Dynasty did not understand the military maintenance model of the Forward Party at all. In their view, the

The Qing fought so hard and only managed to raise a few towns of troops, but they were already crying for help.

Fighting hard, and at this time Sichuan was marching into Yunnan and Guizhou, and had to defend XZ,

They didn't believe that a poor province like Shaanxi could have so many troops.

According to their estimation, Shaanxi can support a town's army.

The people of Xi'an were exploited. This is why they thought that capturing Xi'an was equivalent to a heavy

The reason for the new control of Shaanxi.

At this time, Zhang Feng already understood that if he wanted to

To annihilate this Qing army at a distance, this battle must be fought at a faster pace.

At this time, the Qing army vanguard had penetrated 60 to 70 kilometers into Shaanxi.

The main force of the army has also penetrated forty to fifty kilometers and has now reached the liberation

It's time for the army to take action.

"Commander, should we launch a few more surprise attacks on the Qing army?

Killing four or five hundred Qing soldiers is really a relief. It seems that the Beiyang New Army is just as good as

this. "

"Such an ambush attack requires the right time, place and people.

One cannot have two. The Qing army is already prepared, and their cavalry is also

We are about to reach the central army. It will be difficult to launch a successful sneak attack.

Put our soldiers in danger. Haha, the Qing army does not want Xi'an

Then we will drive them towards Xi'an and see if they can bear it.

How much loss.

"Commander, do you mean to attack their rear?"

"Yes, we will attack their retreat and take them piecemeal. They don't

Are they determined to capture Xi'an? While we are blocking them all the way, we are also

They were constantly driven away from behind, ambushed on their retreat, and made them rush forward

If they were to fire, they would be more eager to attack.

Dozens or hundreds of people may not seem like a lot, but after being chopped off several times, the Qing army soon

When they finally gathered the soldiers together, they saw that everyone was

They've almost all fallen, and that's when we have the best chance to wipe them out."

“Should we kill the signalmen they are communicating with now?

"Not necessary for the time being. Now, letting the news flow smoothly can make the Beiyang New Army feel at ease.

Quan Gan, once we kill their signalmen and make them isolated,

They will have a sense of crisis. If they stick together, we will not

Good to attack. Inform Comrade Zhao Liang who is blocking the way and ask him to abandon the position at the appropriate time.

Ground, layer upon layer of blocking."

"What if the Qing cavalry pursues us?"

"Humph, the Chairman said that as long as we set up the depth and arrange the firepower points,

Heavy machine guns against cavalry is a massacre, we have repeatedly practiced it ourselves,

This was also confirmed when Kunming was liberated. This time, let's try it with the Beiyang cavalry.

Water."

.....

Wang Yingkai was in charge of the central army at this time. He walked for a while but still did not encounter any red bandits.

The Qing army also saw that there were no red bandits coming to steal.

The attack, and from the initial cautiousness to now restored the normal speed of march.

At this time, another cavalryman came running over and reported: "Report to Commander Wang, Commander Liu Biao,

He and Wang Biaotong have already occupied the Red Bandits' positions. Should we continue to attack forward?

Looking at the signalman who was reporting, Wang Yingkai's face lit up when he heard that the Red Bandits' defense line had been occupied.

He immediately smiled and just opened his mouth to say continue attacking.

At the moment of opening his mouth, a burst of sound mixed with artillery shells suddenly came from the rear guard.

The dense sound of bombs and heavy machine gun fire made Wang Yingkai's smile freeze on his face.

He immediately shouted, "First Cavalry Battalion, hurry up and see what's going on."

What's going on? "

In fact, there was no need to look at it. He had received a request for help within a short time:

The rear guard was attacked and suffered heavy losses. The enemy had deployed at least ten cannons.

Three heavy machine guns, requesting support.

Wang Yingkai listened to the report below. Ten cannons were absolutely impossible.

I know that the Red Bandits have a small cannon with a very fast firing speed. It seems that this time the Red Bandits attack

This small cannon was used.

Support, no need for support, wait until the cavalry battalion that received the order arrives

When we arrived at the battlefield, the bandits who had attacked us had already simply picked up all the spoils.

All that was left were corpses lying on the ground and some wounded people wailing.

Howl. A town of the Beiyang New Army is equivalent to a division, followed by a regiment,

The standard, battalion, team, platoon and tent correspond to the brigade, regiment, battalion, company,

Platoon, squad. A surprise attack can solve the problem - the strength of a team is too much for anyone to handle.

The cavalry troops were furious when they saw so many new army brothers killed in the battle.

The cavalry battalion commander shouted to a wounded and groaning new army soldier: "Red

Where did the bandits escape to?"

The new army soldier pointed to the south and said, "That way."

The cavalry battalion commander took a closer look and saw that there were indeed footprints left by the red bandits on the ground.

Printed.

"Can't run far, chase."

The cavalry battalion commander gave the order, and the horses' hooves started to gallop.

The troops immediately followed the PLA's retreating footsteps.

The PLA couldn't run far. How could they possibly outrun the cavalry on the vast plains?

What about the troops?

"Battalion Commander, the Beiyang New Army's cavalry is really chasing us."

Liu Dagui looked at the four heavy machine guns hidden in the four corners and said immediately

He said, "Just pretend to be running away and run slowly forward."

The vast Weihe Plain is the most suitable place for cavalry combat.

The soldiers had not run far when they saw a battalion of red bandits running away in several rows.

The cavalry battalion commander did not think much about it, because the shooting accuracy was too poor on the bumpy horse.

He simply drew his saber and brandished it, shouting: "Brothers,

Draw your sword, charge, avenge the dead brothers, kill all these red bandits, and take control of the great

There are rewards for being generous!”
