As Sun Chuanfang took the initiative to withdraw his troops, the tension on the Shandong battlefield had eased. Han Baihang, who was on his way to Fengtian, couldn't help but smile after receiving the news. Everything was exactly as he expected.
All this was within his expectation. Even his substitute Zhang Sheng was captured by him in a very accidental battle a few years ago. At that time, he was sensitively aware that this person looked almost exactly like himself.
The young man would one day play an unexpected role for him, so he took him in without hesitation and arranged a secret mission for him.
Zhang Sheng joined the army because his parents were poor and his old mother had nothing to eat, just to exchange for a mouthful of food so that his old mother could survive. Knowing the news, Han Baihang immediately sent soldiers to deliver enough rations to Zhang Sheng's old mother, and even
There was also pork. He even hired a dozen or so foreigners to hire an old woman for Zhang Sheng's old mother to take care of her daily life.
Zhang Sheng no longer had any worries, so he naturally followed Han Baihang wholeheartedly. Over the past few years, he had been hiding in a hundred-man squad to learn combat skills and imitation skills, and now he finally put them to use.
The reason why Han Baihang dared to let Zhang Sheng perform this empty city strategy on his behalf was because he believed that Zhang Sheng was qualified for the task, so he made this move. Zhang Sheng lived up to expectations.
Secondly, Han Baihang's grasp of people's hearts is really meticulous. Sun Chuanfang is a suspicious general, but also a thoughtful general. Such a person must be hesitant and timid when making decisions. In addition, he has already eaten in front of Han Baihang.
He had suffered losses several times, so Han Baihang concluded that as long as Zhang Sheng's acting skills were in place and as long as the news about his journey to Fengtian was not leaked, Sun Chuanfang would not act rashly.
The facts were just as Han Baihang expected.
He put down the telegram in his hand. Now, he could finally deal with Guo Songling with peace of mind.
In his opinion, Guo Songling is an opponent no less than Sun Chuanfang, because he has victory experience with Sun Chuanfang, but with Guo Songling, it is completely blank. In terms of military strength comparison, Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition in Shandong
It is twice as many as himself. But now, Guo Songling has an elite ace like the Third Army, but he only has the strength of his original division of 10,000 people. The opponent's number is six or seven times his own. In this battle, if
In a head-on confrontation, there is almost no hope of victory.
In just half a day, Guo Songling's Third Army captured Luanzhou. Except for Peng Zhenguo who was left to garrison Luanzhou, the rest of the elite Third Army marched toward Fengtian at full speed. At this speed, no two
As time goes on, Fengtian is in danger.
How could Han Baihang not worry?
He hurriedly telegraphed Gao Hongyi, asking his entire division to advance at full speed and must arrive at Fengtian within two days. If necessary, all important supplies must be abandoned. Each soldier only carried three days of dry food and light weapons, and all other heavy weapons must be discarded.
They must reach Fengtian before Guo Songling's Third Corps.
This order made Gao Hongyi very distressed. His division had always been squeezed out by other officers in the Feng dynasty. He had always had a small number of people and a weak foundation. He had just made a name for himself in Nanjing, but before he had time to reorganize the army, he had to go into battle again.
The number of people is constantly being depleted, but very few are being replenished.
These heavy weapons are the foundation of one's own foothold, which were captured in battle after battle. But to throw away or blow up these heavy weapons now is undoubtedly to cut Gao Hongyi's heart. But what can be done if he is reluctant? Military order
In order to march at full speed, Gao Hongyi gritted his teeth and issued the order to blow up all heavy weapons!
From the moment the grenade was detonated, Gao Hongyi's tears suddenly flowed down. He almost collapsed on the ground, staring at the blown up heavy weapons with his heart pounding.
He gritted his teeth, stood up and shouted: "Let's go!" The entire team was like a whole body, moving quickly and neatly towards Fengtian at full speed.
Han Baihang got off the train one stop before arriving at Luanzhou, because he knew that Luanzhou would definitely be controlled by Guo Songlin, and the station was the top priority. If he went there rashly, he would definitely be seen through. So he contacted
A car, and a local man hired as a guide, shuttled through the small roads along the way.
The road conditions on this small road are not very good, but at least the car is fast enough. As long as they can reach Fengtian before Guo Songling and join his troops, there is still a chance.
But at this time, he received bad news-Jiang Deng was elected to Luanzhou.
But he was now in a dangerous situation. He was in danger of being discovered by Guo Songling's Third Army Corps at any time, and there was no way to notify Jiang Dengxuan to leave Luanzhou. There was really nothing he could do.
Jiang Dengxuan was still kept in the dark. He didn't know that Guo Songling had begun to rebel, and he didn't know that Luanzhou was already under Peng Zhenguo's control. The reason why he came to Luanzhou this time was because he received an invitation from Guo Songling three days ago.
Just came.
Guo Songling expressed her sincere words in the telegram, hoping that Jiang Deng would choose to come to Luanzhou to discuss with him the important matter of fighting against Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition in Shandong.
Although there was a slight conflict between Jiang Dengxuan and Guo Songlin, this was a matter of life and death for the entire Fengxuan. Even if Jiang Dengxuan was unwilling, he had no reason to refuse, so he came. But what he never expected was that
Guo Songling actually rebelled.
Jiang Dengxuan only had one security company with him, with less than a hundred people.
When Jiang Dengxuan arrived in Luanzhou, he didn't see anything wrong. He just had some questions about Luanzhou's strict military security. Peng Zhenguo's answer to him was "In extraordinary times, everything should be done with caution." Jiang Dengxuan nodded.
What he said doesn't seem unreasonable.
As the commander-in-chief of an army, Jiang Dengxuan was busy with official duties and did not want to waste time at all. Since he came, he naturally came with sincerity. However, he did not even see the shadow of Guo Songling for most of the day. He couldn't help but feel a little angry and said angrily: "What are you doing?"
What's going on? I came all the way to Luanzhou, where is your Commander Guo? Why didn't you take me to see him? We have important matters to discuss. If there is a delay, can you be responsible?"
Peng Zhenguo stood on the sidelines indifferently and said lukewarmly: "Commander Jiang, our commander is busy with military affairs. This does not order me to receive you in person. Otherwise, how many days will you stay in Luanzhou now?"
Jiang Dengxuan snorted coldly: "Fart! Do you know how precious my time is? If I don't see your Commander Guo within an hour, I will leave! You hurry up and do it!" (To be continued)
