Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 608 The Tradition of the Democratic Party

The lethality of the heavy artillery is astonishing, and the shock effect it brings is even more astonishing. The violent explosion sounds like the sky is falling apart.Untrained soldiers, just hearing these voices, became frightened and lost their fighting spirit.

Xu Chongzhi struggled to get up from the ruins. His back and head were injured. Although it was not serious, it terrified him to the extreme. It was like taking his life from hell.

When he looked at his position again, there was the sound of rumbling guns and the sound of crying father and mother everywhere, and his subordinates had all been disrupted.

"Wu Peifu, you bastard, you have the ability to fight with Lao Tzu with real swords and guns, and the one who relies on the cannon is the turtle bastard!"

Xu Chongzhi was furiously scolded, but it didn't help. At this moment, another sharp whistle of heavy artillery pierced the sky. Xu Chongzhi couldn't care about anything, and hurriedly fell down on the ground.

The cannon just landed on an arsenal not far away, and all the "drugs" in it were detonated. Xu Chongzhi, who was lying on the ground, felt like an earthquake. The violent vibration spread to his body, shaking The internal organs were disturbed for a while, this feeling was very uncomfortable, as if the parts in the stomach could be spit out with one mouth.

Finally, the artillery of the Beiyang Army weakened, and the tide of the crowd rushed over. They hardly encountered any decent resistance along the way, and their opponents had long since lost their fighting spirit.Seeing the Beiyang army rushing over, they all ran away, even if the supervisor team urged them repeatedly, they ignored them, and even dispersed the supervisor team, and fled desperately.

The Beiyang army seemed to be chasing ducks. Zhang Fulai, who rushed to the front, was ecstatic, gave orders, and chased desperately.

Facing the surging Beiyang army.Xu Chongzhi could only run away with the defeated army, not even daring to turn his head.Wu Peifu led the army to successfully occupy Changsha, and the flag of the anti-rebel army was triumphant. Newspapers from all over the country reported that the situation was unprecedentedly unfavorable to Sun Wen's party.It depends on whether they have the ability to save the defeat. [

……

"Marshal, this is a telegram from Xue Ju."

Zhang Tinglan was also paying attention to the war in the south. Compared with the various comments in the newspaper, his own stuff was more convincing. He hurriedly took the telegram from Chang Yinhuai and read it carefully.After watching for a while, his brows frowned.

In the telegram, Xue Ju introduced the situation on the front line. After a bloody battle, Wu Peifu led the army and captured Changsha, and the army was heading south.Zhang Tinglan was not surprised by this.Wu Peifu was originally the most capable general in Beiyang, and he took so much excellent equipment from Fengjun. If he couldn't win, something went wrong.

However, Zhang Tinglan was still too dissatisfied with Wu Peifu's advance speed. They could only advance more than ten kilometers a day, and if they encountered resistance.The speed is even slower.This speed is very good for Beiyang, but in Zhang Tinglan's opinion, it is still too slow, and it does not achieve the goal of a quick battle at all.

Yang Yuting also looked at the telegram, and then said: "Commander, the fighting ability of the Beiyang Army is so high that there is no way to force it, and the Guangdong-Han Railway has not yet been completed. There is only a section from Wuchang to Changsha, and all other places have to rely on The soles of the feet. The Beiyang Army is still not able to bear hardships and stand hard work."

Zhang Tinglan said with a stern expression, "Sun Wen is slipperier than a loach. If he doesn't get in quickly, he will run away. Once he gets to Hong Kong or even goes abroad, it will be difficult to catch him."

Yang Yuting also said: "That's right, in fact, it doesn't matter if Sun Wen ran away alone. He still has many followers, such as Wang Jingwei, Hu Hanmin, and Liao Zhongkai. Even if it doesn't die, it will be completely disabled."

"Since the commander is worried, let's work harder and help Wu Peifu." Jiang Dengxuan said from the side.

Zhang Tinglan nodded: "It is true that we were a little negligent. We only dispatched special forces and did not send other auxiliary troops. After all, we still overestimated the degree of modernization of the Beiyang Army. We only hope that we can keep up by sending more troops now."

After discussing with several people, it was immediately decided to send 2000 professional engineers, [-] railway soldiers, [-] communication and road surveying and mapping professionals to the front, plus [-] reconnaissance planes, a medical team, and Some auxiliary personnel add up to a total of [-] people.

Zhang Tinglan handed over the command of this unit to Feng Yong. His main task was to open the way for the Beiyang Army, detect the movements of Sun Wen's subordinates, and help the Beiyang Army move quickly.Before leaving, Zhang Tinglan called Feng Yong to his side again, and wanted to explain the opportunity face to face.

"This trip to the south, not only to help Beiyang, but also to find out the situation in the south. Sooner or later, we will also need to go south. It is not harmful for us to find out the geographical environment in advance. Another point is to take advantage of the situation. This opportunity, let me investigate the warlords in Guangdong, Guangxi and Southwest China, and find out their political opinions and character traits, to determine whether there are any talents available among them."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yong patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Commander, I promise to complete the task."

The efficiency of Feng's army mobilization was very high. After Fengtian recruited all the troops, he immediately went south, relying on trains all the way. It only took eight days for Feng Yong to lead the people to Changsha.Then they chased all the way, and finally caught up with the Beiyang Army. At this time, Wu Peifu was leading the army through the southern Hunan area, and their speed was slower than expected. [

Wu Peifu was very happy to receive the news that Fengjun had dispatched a large number of technical arms. Although the Beiyang Army had acquired a large number of heavy firepower, these weapons showed their prowess in Changsha, blasting Xu Chongzhi and his subordinates into a panic and fleeing.

However, these weapons also increased the logistical burden and slowed down the marching speed, especially those heavy artillery, which sometimes could only travel five or six kilometers a day, which made Wu Peifu very annoyed.

After Feng Yong arrived with his troops, Wu Peifu received him in person.

"Lan Shuai can send engineering troops here, Wu is very grateful."

"Officer Wu, you are being polite. It is also the mission of Fengjun to eliminate Sun Ni. We can't mobilize the main combat troops, so naturally we have to help from other aspects."

Wu Peifu nodded in satisfaction, instead of sending the main combat troops, he just kept the credit to himself. Zhang Tinglan was still very measured in handling things, and Wu Peifu nodded gratified.

"I don't know how much time your army needs to rest before you can officially start working?"

"Mr. Wu, the speed of your soldiers is so valuable. Tomorrow we will open a road across the mountains and build bridges when we meet the water. We will act as pawns for the large army."

After Feng Yong asked for an order, Feng Jun did exactly that. They rushed to the forefront. The south is different from the north, the river network is densely covered, and the existing roads are difficult for horse-drawn carriages, let alone transporting heavy artillery. The bridges can't bear the weight of heavy artillery at all and must be fully reinforced.

Although the Beiyang Army also has engineers, they are basically working roles. They have no concept of modern construction at all. When they encounter problems, they swarm up, which greatly affects the efficiency.

Feng Jun is completely different from them. From the first day of his arrival, he first found out the situation of Zhijun's various weapons and means of transportation, and he knew it well.Then the next day Feng Yong divided the [-] engineers into three construction brigades, plus a security team. They divided the road ahead into three sections, and each brigade was responsible for one section.

According to the calculation results, they need to widen and strengthen the road to ensure that the Beiyang Army can pass through normally, and also check whether the bridges along the way can bear the weight. If not, they must use the fastest speed and use the surrounding materials. set up.

Fengjun engineers opened the way in front, and the Beiyang army followed behind. This time when we walked again, the situation was completely different, and the journey was smoother.Wu Peifu also carefully observed the road conditions, and he couldn't help giving Fengjun a thumbs up.

Especially when he saw the temporary bridges built by Fengjun, he was even more amazed. They also used logs as tools, but the bridges built by Fengjun were simple, beautiful, strong and generous. From the materials used to the structure of the bridge, they were all carefully thought out. calculate.It happens to be able to pass through a cannon car, and the materials are the most economical, and the construction is the simplest.

This kind of ability is completely developed through a little bit of practice, it is definitely not achieved overnight, especially it can be seen that Fengjun has accumulated a lot.

In short, with the help of Feng Jun, the Beiyang Army's action speed has been greatly accelerated, and the forward has approached Shaoguan, an important town in northern Guangdong.Beiyang's cannons were aimed at Shaoguan City, and the planes were also circling back and forth in the sky. A black cloud was pressing down on the city and it was about to be destroyed, which made all the members of the Democratic Party terrified.This time, the action against the rebel army was swift and ferocious compared to any other time, making Sun Wen's party tremble a little.

"Prime Minister, something is wrong. Deng Keng, who was in charge of guarding Shaoguan, surrendered to Beiyang, and the gate of northern Guangdong is opened!"

Hearing this report suddenly, Sun Wen jumped up from his seat, the veins on his forehead bursting: "What's going on, Deng Keng, how dare he betray the revolution and the leader, he must not let this bastard go!"

Hearing this, Liao Zhongkai stood up quickly and said loudly: "Prime Minister, Deng Keng obeys your arrangement in name, but in fact he and Chen Jiongming wear a pair of trousers. He is Chen Jiongming's confidant. Now that the enemy is facing, Deng Keng surrenders Maybe Chen Jiongming has a different heart, I think Chen Jiongming should be controlled!"

When Wang Jingwei heard this, he waved his hands again and again: "Chen Jiongming is very influential in the Guangdong Army. If you want to deal with the Beiyang Army, you can't do without him. I think you should be kind and appease. At the juncture of the war, don't provoke internal friction!"

"The more powerful the enemy is, the more we must clean up the interior. Chen Jiongming must not let it go." Sun Wen suddenly said loudly: "Chen Jiongming has been making irresponsible remarks about our strategy over the years. To fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside. , if this hidden danger is not eliminated, how can we deal with the Beiyang Army?"

Sun Wen thought for a while, and then said to Hu Hanmin: "Go and see Chen Jiongming, and tell him that I want to ask him to discuss the matter and discuss strategies to deal with Beiyang."
