The New Armed Forces marched towards Lincheng, Shandong, and the five groups of troops soon got the news that "Zhao Zilong" from the Qing Dynasty was coming. Miao Fanlu was the first to take action. He colluded with the leader of the horse bandits, Fei Lingxue.

This time, Miao Fanlu advised Zhu Hongdeng to think about the association, there is no need to let the association suffer from the sentimental blow of the state power for the sake of brother Sun's kindness.

After careful consideration, Zhu Hongdeng feels that Yihequan should serve the imperial court and should serve the Chinese society. This is the foundation of Yihequan. It is impossible to change the rules of Yihequan for its own selfishness. Therefore, it is useless to cut chicken heads and drink blood wine. Zhu Hongdeng released Jianghu Ling Rang, a militia formed by several Boxer miners, saw the arrival of the Xinwu Army and switched to the Xinwu Army, showing that Boxer’s red heart will always be toward the Qing Dynasty.

The Wangzhuang Township controlled by the boxing men and horses provided convenience for the Xinwu Army, so that the Long Spear Society men and horses who stood firm in Yong'an Township had no way out.

Zhu Hongdeng's decision made the Changqiang club unlucky. More than 200 people died in the battle. The men and horses became the vanguard officials who opened the roads and bridges in the mountains and asked the villages along the way to support the Xinwu Army. Du Sheng is a master in ideological work and made achievements in the afternoon. Bringing eight hundred strong men to join Browning [

The defection of the Long Spear Club and the Boxing Fist was a fatal blow to the Lincheng garrison. It severely damaged the confidence of the Sun brothers in opening up territory. Even their own brothers betrayed themselves. The danger of being surrounded by all sides made the Sun brothers lament that the hearts of the Sun brothers are not ancient.

With the help of Yihequan, Li Guolou is like a psychic wizard. Everything is easy in the border of Lincheng. Originally, he knew little about the garrison in Lincheng. Now he even knows that 55 hostages are hiding in the bandit's lair in Baodugu.

Baodugu is the old nest of the Sun brothers. Li Guolou has no confidence to capture this dangerous peak, but he is no longer satisfied with capturing Lincheng. Sun's armed forces wiped out all of them and did not give Sun's armed forces a chance to flee to Baodugu

The sudden attack of the Xinwu Army captured Yong'an Township and Wangzhuang Township in one fell swoop, which had broken the guarantee that the Shandong warlords focused on negotiation and neither side would actively attack the other. The national building was burned, and the Xinwu Army did not care about the friendship between the warlords. Attacking the Sun brothers' territory disrupted the Sun brothers' dream of being promoted to a higher level. The Lincheng garrison must not dare to hold on to the city.

Li Guolou's troops are divided into two groups and the first group of troops, with Browning's [-] Changsheng Division as the main force, attacked Lincheng head-on. Li Guolou personally led the other group of troops to Shenfengling to fight there. The blocking battle completely defeated the main force of the Sun brothers

Those who lead the way for the Xinwu Army are Miao Fanlu and He Xiangu, and a local, Meng Qing, is a middle-aged man in his 40s who looks honest and a believer in Boxer Boxing.

During the military meeting, everyone discussed for a while and finally looked at Li Guolou and waited for him to issue the military order, but Li Guolou raised his head and asked, "Are you familiar with the terrain of Miao Fanlu and Meng Qingshen Peak?"

Miao Fanlu looked at Meng Qing in embarrassment, no need to ask anymore, the expression on his face indicated that everything was going on, and Meng Qing, who was temporarily speechless, said dryly: "I am familiar with the terrain of Shenfengling and drove past it several times."

Li Guolou said with a friendly smile: "Meng Qing, don't be afraid of me, just tell me if Shenfeng Ridge can set up an ambush." ​​Meng Qing didn't know tactics but didn't dare to open his mouth before finally saying: "Sir, the terrain is dangerous and you can set up an ambush."

Li Guolou smiled far-fetchedly and said, "Isn't this just talking about war on paper? Master Fan used to say that 'the five elements are uncertain and you lose the bottom'. You will be hungry if you rely on the map drawn during the Kangxi period. I see how about occupying Shenfengling after the meeting."

The arrogant soldiers laughed wildly together, and the vanguard officer Li Yunkai put his hands on his hips, as if he had won a big victory

Along the way, Li Guolou looked enviously at the long husbands at Dagukou. Those people are big men from Shandong, all of them are strong men with broad arms and round waists, they are used to carry guns. Supplies depend on these illiterate elders to carry them to the front. It is a pity that these elders are from Dagukou. He is only jealous of Yulu’s life. The army has local limitations. The Xinwu Army is the world of Anhui people. In terms of race, there is still a big gap with Shandong people

When will these second-class products under his command be replaced by high-quality products with broad waists and round waists? Do it

He Xiangu walked close to Li Guolou and chatted with Li Guolou about the past, it was obvious that it depended on Li Guolou's reputation, and Li Guolou saw that in the Zhu Hongdeng, he was still a kind person, and He Xiangu was not driven away by the newspaper. Walking side by side to add some bright colors to the march

Shenfengling is located on the west side of Yixian County, Shandong Province. It is a shortcut from Lincheng to Baodugu. The other roads pass through the town, which has been controlled by other warlords in Shandong. He Fengyu, the governor of Yanzhou, was originally the immediate boss of the Sun brothers. Those who give way to the Sun brothers will be emotionally hit by the local warlords who give way to the Lincheng garrison of the Sun brothers. It is expected that the Sun brothers will only take shortcuts and will not cause "rebellion" in Shandong like bandits

After Li Guolou dispatched more than 200 rangers, Li Yunkai and more than a dozen people immediately straddled their horses and accompanied Li Guolou to leave the station and gallop westward to climb over two mountains. Everyone was amazed. The actual terrain and the one marked on the map are basically two different things.

The guide Meng Qing couldn't speak clearly and didn't explain the landform of Shenfengling clearly, leaving out the most important road conditions

A winding road is not in a ravine, but paved on a bare mountain ridge several miles long. The width of the ridge is only 200 meters. The terrain on both sides of the road is slightly higher than the road, but there is no concealment. Some of the fortifications built by the Qing army were used by the Qing army to deal with the Nian army. It has been dilapidated for a long time.

On the south side of the mountain ridge is a big mountain ditch. On the opposite side is Mamian Mountain. On the east side of the mountain ridge is a small mountain village scattered with more than a dozen households of mountain people. To the east is Weishan Lake [

Obviously, such terrain is not suitable for ambushes, because large troops are neither easy to conceal nor deploy, and the deep ditch in the south makes it difficult for the reserve team to move. If not, it will form a head-to-tail formation that can't take care of it, so that you can get into trouble and be surrounded by the enemy and eliminate them one by one.

The originally high-spirited dozens of officers were not interested. The Xinwu Army did not come here to fight a war of attrition. They only had 1000 troops, plus the 500 men from Dagukou. The combined combat power was at most 3000 troops, but they were guarding the city. There are more than 5000 people in the army, plus a miscellaneous army, let alone [-] people, how can we fight this battle?

Li Guolou led the horse for a while and continued to walk back and forth. After walking for more than 40 miles, he also found an ideal ambush point. Then Li Guolou led a dozen riders and turned back to Shenfengling. He continued to observe the terrain and seemed to be scrapping the road. Count all the fortifications

Everyone dare not disturb Li Guolou, this is the God of War of the Xinwu Army and their backbone As long as Li Guolou makes up his mind, the Xinwu Army will not hesitate to fight to the death in the battle of attrition

Li Guolou pointed at the country with a horsewhip, and Kong Ming, who looked like a feather fan and towel, said again: "Is there a butcher who wants to eat a pig? The miraculous Sun brothers are the dogs of the lost family, where is our hero's opponent of the Xinwu Army, brothers, you have the confidence to win this ambush battle"

"Yes", "Absolutely", "1 yes", more than a dozen officers shouted loudly, even in the face of death, they dared to make a final roar

Li Guolou looked approvingly at the fighters played by these favorite generals, all of them were daredevils, and they waved their hands happily: "Go back to the meeting and set the battlefield at Shenfengling. The Sun brothers will also beat them to death."

What Li Guolou said was the imperial decree that more than a dozen officers on horseback were thinking about how to deploy defense tactics at Shenfengling.

At the foot of the mountain, more than a dozen families of mountain people have been captured by the Xinwu army. The supervisor Zhang Haojie can't tell who is the spies armed by the Sun family. Sleeping All said in it that they will compensate these mountain people for their losses in the future. As for these mountain people, they think they will be buried alive by the Qing army, which is not in Zhang Haojie's consideration. This approach is quite restrained

When Li Guolou saw Zhang Haojie, he just asked, "Is Inspector Zhang dead?"

"There's one alive and kicking and eating dog meat at night, hehehehehe" Zhang Haojie had a smirk on his face. The Xinwu army shot all the hunting dogs of the mountain people to covert work. Not even a dog can live near Shenfengling.

Li Guolou rolled his eyes and said: "I don't eat dog meat." After finishing speaking, Li Guolou stopped talking to Zhang Haojie and even forgot that he is a Manchu.

After eating alone, Li Guolou went to the living room of the farmhouse. The air was filled with the smell of dog meat. Li Guolou touched his nose and said: "You are all full. Today you eat the hunting dogs of the mountain people. I want to accompany the silver dollar to the mountain." The deduction of two yuan per person is regarded as compensation for the mountain people.”

"Ah, it's so expensive, it costs two yuan, God is right!" Jin Yin yelled, Li Guolou really dared to deduct their salary

Li Guolou said very seriously: "I'm not joking with you. You all know the truth that water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. A country with the people supporting the regime will die. The women and children in Baodugu say that kidnapping foreigners is a just act against imperialism. The bandits in Baodugu never kidnap women and let the villagers around Baodugu live a better life. Are we the country’s army? Is it worse?"

"We pledged to donate two yuan." A dozen officers couldn't sit still and hurriedly stood up to express their opinions. Li Guolou's eloquence and standing on the height of truth can't help but make people awe-inspiring.

After Li Guolou preached, Ma Dequan poured tea to the officers. The military meeting officially started

Li Guolou took a sip of tea and frowned slightly, Ma Dequan, that bastard, actually took out his treasured Dahongpao and gave it to everyone to use as tea to rinse their mouths. Just then he said, "If you have it, you will be safe." He could only pretend to be generous and said: "Brothers, good job Dahongpao has a few sips to refresh his spirits, hehehehe."

Ma Dequan blinked at Jinyin eccentrically to show that others are shrewd. It's good. I won't forget my old brother.

Li Guolou went to the map and pointed out the terrain of Shenfengling, and said: "I still say that the terrain is dead and people are alive. Don't think of ambush and steep ravines. The ancient steep cliffs have already been opened up by us. There are already many tactical death places in the world, and Shenfengling can be used as an ambush for new tactics, which can kill the enemy and our army does not need to be in danger of exhaustion. It can also use the limited terrain advantage to fight a beautiful battle of annihilation.”

The officers of the Xinwu Army have long worshiped Li Guolou as the God of War. This is the reason for the existence of this army. With Li Guolou's leadership, there is a reason for the existence of the Xinwu Army, and these officers have lost their value. More than a dozen officers surrounded Li. Around Guolou, they are united around Li Guolou, emitting sparks of life, their eyes are so hot, they believe that Li Guolou can lead the Xinwu Army to face the test of blood and fire

Li Guolou analyzed: "Usually speaking, Shenfeng Ridge is indeed not easy to ambush, but it is an excellent terrain with less attack and more. Because the terrain is not dangerous enough, the enemy will be paralyzed. Those broken fortifications are only 30 meters away from the road. The nearest is only [-] meters. Mi enemies have long been commonplace. If we hide our troops under the enemy's nose and camouflage them well, it will be difficult to detect the enemy. It will definitely have an unexpected effect. We can wipe out a large number of enemies in one go. Secondly, the narrow forces on the mountain ridge cannot be used. Our army is in a good formation. It is also difficult for the enemy to deploy in a hurry, and it is only passive to be beaten.”[

Snapped

Su Yuanchun saluted Li Guolou respectfully and said: "Master Xuezheng, you are very good, the students are taught."

Li Guolou looked at Su Yuanchun, who had grown hair. This is his confidant and love general. He is a key student of the Xinwu Hall. He is running side by side with his fellow son Li Yunchu. He is known as "Zhao Zilong's right-hand man." It is his established decision to cultivate these two love generals. People are the talents of the Xinwu Army.

"Relax, Su Yuanchun, this is not a school, so I don't need you to stand at attention." Li Guolou's tone was flat and strange, but all the officers present knew that Li Guolou preferred Su Yuanchun. The student's official rank is higher than the teacher's, so isn't this student a military genius?

"Hey hey hey" Su Yuanchun scratched his head a little foolishly, it was this kind of stupidity that made him stand out among thousands of students
