For this sudden retreat, Han Baihang had to sacrifice them. This is the battlefield, this is war, and Han Baihang had no choice. He felt very uncomfortable when he saw his men being surrounded by the enemy and being killed.
.Even though he has been a general for many years, even though he has seen countless deaths, he still cannot be completely indifferent when soldiers die because of his orders.
Han Baihang said secretly in his heart: "Don't worry, I will make them repay this revenge twice as much!"
Han Baihang led the Shandong troops for only a few days. He didn't even know the name of the regiment commander who cut off his rear, let alone the names of these soldiers. But he knew that these soldiers sacrificed their lives for him.
Those who died for his plan, he must avenge them.
Their deaths were not without cost. The remaining more than 30,000 troops had all withdrawn from the battle and quickly retreated towards the rear, basically out of the battle.
This is Han Baihang's plan.
Facing Han Baihang's retreat, Xie Hongxun and Sun Chuanfang were a little at a loss for a while. They had never seen such a fight, and there were still people who were able to retreat midway. Isn't this nonsense? But Han Baihang did it, and he also
Withdrawing more than 30,000 troops at one time had to make Sun Chuanfang and Xie Hongxun stunned, and the price he paid was only one regiment. This has to be said to be a miracle, but he just did it.
A difficult problem is placed in front of Sun Chuanfang and Xie Hongxun. The opponent has escaped. Should they pursue them? If they do not pursue them, they will probably miss a good opportunity to annihilate the main force of the enemy. If they pursue them, will this be the case?
Han Baihang’s ambush?
As a pioneer, Xie Hongxun was hesitating. As far as he was concerned, he was unwilling to continue chasing because he knew deeply that Han Baihang was a man of calculation and scheming. He had already been fooled by him twice.
There might be some conspiracy and conspiracy this time. Moreover, the retreat just now was so fast and without any delay. This was not an order that an unprepared general could make.
Xie Hongxun still has lingering fears about Han Baihang. This person is not as easy to deal with as he imagined. There is another reason why Xie Hongxun does not pursue him. After all, he has strong soldiers and horses. As long as he defeats Han Baihang for the first time, he will definitely be able to defeat the opponent's spirit.
, although the opponent's main force cannot be eliminated this time, the opponent's fighting spirit will definitely be reduced by half in the next battle. If this continues, even if they are not really desperate, they can still drag the opponent to death.
But if Han Baihang is really pushed into a desperate situation, then this guy might do something. Xie Hongxun has heard a lot about Han Baihang, not to mention the time he had with Zhang Zuoliang before Han Baihang joined the Fengxian.
During the war, Han Baihang, who was desperate, relied on the strength of a division to defeat Zhang Xueliang's army, and even injured Zhang Xueliang himself. Looking at the entire Republic of China, there are probably only a few people with this ability.
Today's Han Baihang is not the same. He has an army of 100,000 in his hands. If he is really pushed into a hurry, what kind of fighting power may burst out, and then the gain will outweigh the loss.
While Xie Hongxun was hesitating, Commander-in-Chief Sun Chuanfang and others at the rear were already impatient. They were not at the forefront of the battle, so naturally they could not feel the slightest changes on the battlefield. In their eyes, they only saw Han Baihang's
The army retreated from the battle in a panic, while Xie Hongxun still stood there like an idiot and was at a loss.
Sun Chuanfang was still very calm. In his heart, he still believed in his subordinates, especially Xie Hongxun, who dared to charge desperately in battle. However, Chen Tiaoyuan, Qi Xieyuan and others did not know the situation. How could such a great opportunity be wasted?
What about falling? As long as we rush forward and capture this group of enemies, we can attack Shandong in a big way, avenge our fellow villagers in Shanghai, and also give Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zuolin a severe lesson.
Before Xie Hongxun could make a decision, Chen Tiaoyuan and Qi Xieyuan had already jumped angrily from behind and cursed: "What a fool of his grandma. He didn't rush forward and just stayed there in a daze! Rush forward! What a coward!"
Chen Tiaoyuan added jealously on the side: "In my opinion, Han Baihang was scared out of his wits!"
Qi Xieyuan went on to say: "In my opinion, he got some benefits from Han Baihang! Otherwise, think about it, why was he captured by Han Baihang and not only did he not suffer any injuries, but he also entertained him with good wine and meat? I think
He deliberately let things go wrong in Nanjing, otherwise Han Baihang could have easily captured him, and Xie Hongxun is known for his bravery!"
Sun Chuanfang, who was still unmoved at first, couldn't hold his breath anymore when he heard this. He took a breath of air-conditioning, yes! Why didn't he think of it? Why did his capable general act inexplicably every time he met Han Baihang?
Being ambushed? Is Han Baihang really so clever? If Xie Hongxun had an affair with Han Baihang, then all this would be explained!
Sun Chuanfang's heart skipped a beat. He no longer hesitated and immediately issued an order for the entire army to pursue him!
When the messenger passed the order to him, Xie Hongxun was still hesitant. It would be too dangerous to send troops to pursue him at this time! But the military orders were overwhelming, and he had no choice but to follow them. He gritted his teeth and issued the order to pursue.
Order!
Xie Hongxun didn't understand. General Sun Chuanfang usually trusted him with command on the battlefield. Why did he suddenly issue a big order today? Could it be that General Sun Chuanfang saw some flaw in the other party?
Thinking like this, Xie Hongxun nodded. This must be the case. Maybe General Sun has figured out that Han Baihang is playing an empty city strategy. If this is the case, then he can safely execute the order and give Han Baihang a "trick"!
Not only that, General Sun Chuanfang once again sent 50,000 troops to Xie Hongxun. In addition to the 30,000 soldiers who survived the previous battle, Xie Hongxun now commanded 80,000 troops, and these 80,000 troops will become the key to this battle.
!
The whole army pursues! Success or failure depends on this! If you succeed, you can directly eliminate the opponent's main force, and you can approach Qingdao without any pressure. If you fail... hmm, Commander-in-Chief Sun Chuanfang will not fail! (To be continued)
