Blood-quenched mountains and rivers

The troops of Gong Hao and Zhao Hongjie were surrounded and surrendered because they fell into the swamp artificially flooded by Yang Wei. Tang Shengzhi's divination was fulfilled, and they entered Hangzhou City without any injuries. Tang Shengzhi even lost his chief of staff. When he heard the news, he was furious, and when he was about to announce the dispatch of troops, Song Baocheng, the director of military supplies, rushed in hastily.

Tang Shengzhi was worried that he had no place to get angry, so without saying a word, he scolded Song Baocheng angrily for not observing military discipline and lack of etiquette. Song Baocheng was scolded inexplicably. endlessly.

After scolding for about ten minutes, Tang Shengzhi finally calmed down, and gasped, "Say, what's the matter with rushing here? How is the matter of ordering you to go to Shanghai to buy weapons?"

Song Baocheng was depressed, and said in a low voice: "Report to the commander, this is exactly why I came here."

Tang Shengzhi adjusted his glasses, his chest heaved and he said, "When will the weapons be delivered?"

Before Song Baocheng could explain why he came here, Tang Shengzhi took it for granted that Song Baocheng had already bought weapons, which made Song Baocheng very uncomfortable, and whispered pleasingly: "Mr. I went to Shanghai for the first time and contacted many arms dealers, but recently there is a shortage of arms, and except for a few Japanese arms dealers, arms dealers from other countries are unable to sell weapons.”

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Shengzhi jumped up from his chair and shouted angrily, "You idiot! This is just an excuse, don't you understand? Which force has such a big appetite to take all the weapons in Shanghai Buy it away, they simply don’t want to sell it!”

Can Tang Shengzhi explain this?Song Baocheng lowered his head depressingly, thinking that he was being pissed repeatedly in Shanghai, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Nowadays, all countries are very repulsive to our army, not to mention selling weapons, and they are not even willing to meet in person."

Song Baocheng visited more than a dozen large arms companies in Shanghai, but he was repeatedly treated behind closed doors, and he was blamed by Tang Shengzhi when he came back.

The Northern Expeditionary Army went out to fight for the unification of the whole country. If the country is reunited, it will not be a good thing for the big powers who intend to carve up China.All countries are spending money and efforts to support the warlords' confrontation with the Northern Expeditionary Army, and naturally they will not sell weapons to the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Tang Shengzhi knew about this situation a long time ago, and he was already mentally prepared for the purchase of weapons. If Yang Wei hadn't blown up his [-] rounds of shells, he wouldn't have sent people out to buy weapons in such a humble manner.

Tang Shengzhi became more and more angry as he thought about it. He looked up at Song Baocheng and said, "What about the Japanese? Didn't they say they were willing to sell weapons?"

"This one……"

Song Baocheng hemmed and hawed for a long time, and finally opened his mouth reluctantly under Tang Shengzhi's repeated urging: "Southern [-]-style pistols, two thousand oceans per box."

Tang Shengzhi didn't have time to think, so he cursed: "What? The little Japanese bastards are poor and crazy, aren't they? It's better to grab it at this price!"

There were many problems with the fourteen-style pistols in the south. If it were not for the shortage of weapons, Tang Shengzhi would definitely not choose Japanese arms. However, he did not expect that the great powers of all countries would join forces to try to cut off the Northern Expeditionary Army's weapons purchase channels, and the Japanese would even want to take advantage of it.

But although the Japanese made it clear that they wanted to blackmail them, given Tang Shengzhi's current situation, they could only give it a try. He stared at Song Baocheng and said, "How much military spending do we still have?"

At this time, Song Baocheng was most afraid that Tang Shengzhi would ask this question. After hearing this, he immediately broke out in cold sweat, buried his head in his collar, and said in a soft voice: "There is not much left, and we still need to buy military rations. Common people and merchants near Hangzhou Refuse to donate food, the food collected is not enough for a regiment's ration."

Tang Shengzhi suddenly felt overwhelmed and furiously said: "A group of stupid people, we sent troops to the expedition to rescue them from the dire straits, and it is really abominable that they still do not cooperate at this critical moment."

In dire straits?Song Baocheng sighed helplessly in his heart. When he went to collect grain, he didn't see that the lives of the people in Hangzhou seemed to be in dire straits. I have to say that under Yang Wei's governance, Hangzhou City can be regarded as a prosperous country, at least better than this The lives of the people in other places I saw during the war were much better.

Naturally, Song Baocheng would not say such words, it seemed that Tang Shengzhi was the only one in the world who thought that Yang Wei was a heinous "chaotic" minister and traitor, and it was not enough to indignate the common people.

After Tang Shengzhi asked Song Baocheng to retreat, he was in a hurry in the marching tent. Even when he attacked Wu Peifu and Sun Chuanfang, he had never encountered such a difficult situation.

Judging from the situation, it is inevitable that they can no longer stay where they are, and must fight quickly, otherwise there will be no chance of turning over after running out of ammunition and food. Tang Shengzhi immediately ordered the soldiers to rectify, and decided to attack the city of Hangzhou in the early morning of tomorrow.

The Zhipu Road, Meiling Road and other routes that were originally planned to attack Hangzhou have been laid by Yang Wei, and we can no longer lose troops for this. Tang Shengzhi deployed two brigades of soldiers to approach Hangzhou from Longmen Mountain. There was no danger of being struck by mines, and we arrived near Hangzhou one day later than originally planned.Blood quenching mountains and rivers 136

Yang Wei used tricks to fool Tang Shengzhi several times before, which already made him furious. When he was still (distance) from Hangzhou City, Tang Shengzhi ordered his men to prepare artillery fire.

From Tang Shengzhi's point of view, even if he lacks weapons, Yang Wei is vulnerable in his own eyes. Tang Shengzhi believes that with Yang Wei's financial resources and material resources, after setting up such a large area of ​​minefields, he must be out of pocket. Time is the perfect time to attack.

The news that Tang Shengzhi took a long way to the battlefield was soon reported to Yang Wei's ears by Yang Wei's special reconnaissance unit. He couldn't help but sighed softly. He had expected that it would be impossible to stop Tang Shengzhi's arrogance just because of the minefield. Proud man, since he has decided to attack Hangzhou, of course he will not give up easily, but this tactic of intensifying the march to fight for the attack really makes Yang Wei sigh.

The minefield is just Yang Wei's blindfold. Tang Shengzhi's change of marching route will cause the soldiers' physical fitness to decrease and fatigue to increase, thus weakening their combat strength.I adopted the strategy of guarding the position. The main battlefield was Hangzhou City. Tang Shengzhi came in a hurry. It was naturally unrealistic to immediately enter the battle with a high exhausted combat strength, but resting on the side of the tiger's mouth was even more dangerous.

Yang Wei couldn't help but sweat for the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Army. The one who sits in Hangzhou today is himself who has no intention of fighting the Northern Expeditionary Army to the death. If someone else is in charge, Tang Shengzhi will definitely lose this battle.

Fang Shaohua stood beside Yang Wei, looking at the vast land outside the city, Fang Shaohua adjusted his glasses and said, "When does Commander Yang plan to dispatch the mobile brigade directly under the headquarters? If Tang Shengzhi wants to enter Hangzhou, there are only a few minefields Besides, the only way to choose is Tanxi Road, if the No. [-] H-type tanks directly attack here, it will surely wipe out Tang Shengzhi's army."

How could Yang Wei not know this strategy?However, after thinking for a moment, Yang Wei still waved his hand.

Although they were not born of the same root, Yang Wei has always regarded the Northern Expedition Army as his refuge, why is it too urgent to confront each other.
