One thousand one hundred and forty-three chapters soldiers approaching the city
Guo Songling was not a fool. On the contrary, his shrewdness was among the best among the Feng army and even among the generals of the entire Republic of China. Therefore, when "Li Jinglin's troops" launched an attack on him, he immediately made up his mind to overcome all difficulties.
Attack Fengtian.
This is a desperate chess game. If you succeed, everything you put in will be rewarded, but if you fail, you will inevitably die.
The Third Army has 60,000 troops, while Li Jinglin's Sixth Army only has 30,000 troops, which is twice as many as the opponent's. His troops were once the elite of the Fengjun Army, while Li Jinglin's troops were just a group of soldiers.
A mob. Guo Songling believed that as long as Li Jinglin's troops dared to come against him again, he would make sure that he never came back.
Undoubtedly, with Fengtian in front of him and Li Jinglin behind him, directly attacking Fengtian is the wisest move. As long as he captures Fengtian in one fell swoop, Li Jinglin will definitely throw a tantrum at that time and will never dare to attack him again.
However, Guo Songling had calculated that one person was missing, and that person was Han Baihang.
Han Baihang's trick of concealing the truth was so clever that until now, Guo Songling still deeply believed that Han Baihang was still dealing with Sun Chuanfang's five-province coalition on the battlefield in Shandong. He would never have thought that Han Baihang was there.
Fengtian was commanding the battle and had harassed his troops a few hours ago. He would never have imagined that Han Baihang secretly sabotaged his original alliance with Li Jinglin.
If Guo Songling had a 90% chance of winning from the moment he sent troops in Luanzhou, then now, his chance of winning is only 70%. He could vaguely feel that he was competing with a powerful opponent, but apart from Zhang Zuolin
Master Zhang, he couldn't think of anyone who had such ability, and everything he encountered didn't seem to be like Dashuai Zhang's style.
No matter what, he couldn't control that much anymore. From the moment he raised his troops, he had no way of turning back. If he advanced, there was still hope of victory, but if he retreated, he would end up dead.
It’s a good time for your army to be dragged around, let’s do it! wavv
Guo Songling's Third Army Corps has arrived at the city and is ready to attack, while Li Jinglin's Sixth Army Corps is already less than twenty miles away from Fengtian City. It has not snowed yet in Fengtian in early winter, but there are many fallen leaves, which are blowing in the wind from time to time.
Flying in the air, the battlefield was silent, as if the sound of a drop of water could ignite the raging flames of war.
Attack! Guo Songling gave the order and 60,000 troops marched towards Fengtian City.
Most of the soldiers still didn't understand what was going on. Why did they want to attack their hometown? But the information given by the commander was that Yang Yuting had rebelled against superiors and attacked Fengtian City, so they came here to "Qingjun side". But a large number of soldiers
I don’t believe that Yang Yuting is really that capable?
But whether you believe it or not, in the face of military orders, everyone must execute them unconditionally. This is the bounden duty of a soldier.
It was out of such considerations that Guo Songling made such a desperate move to attack Fengtian, because he knew very well that if his soldiers knew the real reason why he attacked Fengtian, it would be difficult to lead this army.
.He must capture Fengtian before this happens. By then, even if his soldiers know the inside story, he will be able to control the overall situation.
Guo Songling no longer hesitated. He ordered the 27th Division to attack Fengtian City directly. Li Jinglin's 6th Army Corps, located on the right rear of the 28th Division, would take action immediately if they found out that the other party had the intention to attack him without reporting it.
.
Guo Songling knew very well that the current Fengtian City was only guarded by a guard brigade of Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang. Apart from that, there were no other troops. A mere brigade was like an egg hitting a stone in front of Guo Songling's most elite third army. Therefore,
He could only send out the 27th Division for a frontal attack.
As for the 28th Division, it is even more important to defend against Li Jinglin's regiment behind them. As for the 13th Division, it may even be on the spot ready to support the 27th and 28th Divisions at any time.
Han Baihang, who was observing from a distance with a telescope on Fengtian City, saw that Guo Songling only attacked Fengtian City with one division of troops. He smiled secretly, saying that Guo Songling was an arrogant person and could not listen to anyone's opinions.
It is difficult to get along well with any general in the Gengfeng faction. Today's troop formation can clearly show his character and overconfidence.
This is Han Baihang's opportunity, and he will naturally not let it go easily. If Guo Songling brings all his troops up, Han Baihang may feel the pressure doubled, and he may have to call one of his divisions back for defense.
But facing a division of the 27th Division, Han Baihang was still somewhat confident that he could hold on, even though he only had one guard brigade.
Han Baihang was not worried that the other party would use heavy artillery to launch a fierce artillery attack, because Guo Songling did not have heavy artillery at all. This was what Han Baihang had expected early on. Judging from the speed of the Third Army, they must have abandoned all heavy weapons and went full speed.
Move forward, otherwise it wouldn't have come so fast.
But Han Baihang also knew that he didn't have any heavy weapons. In order to reach Fengtian earlier than Guo Songling's Third Army, his troops not only discarded all the heavy weapons, but even discarded all the food and grass, except for the three days that each man carried with him.
dry food.
If this is the case, this defensive battle will be easy to fight.
Zhang Zuolin and Marshal Zhang have been operating in Fengtian for so many years and have already blocked the surrounding area. It is really difficult to break into Fengtian City with one division.
Although Fengtian City currently only has one brigade of defenders, Han Baihang is not nervous at all. Without heavy weapons, attacking the city is equivalent to scratching an itch. With one brigade of soldiers, he can deal with them.
Han Baihang had already arranged for the soldiers to place basket after basket of grenades on the tower. There were no other grenades in Fengtian City. There were enough grenades. It was originally a dangerous thing to put so many grenades around his soldiers, but
If the opponent has no siege artillery, then these dangers will disappear.
The bravery of the 27th Division cannot be boasted. Their first charge seemed to want to capture Fengtian City in one fell swoop, but it was too difficult to break into the city gate. Facing the thick city wall, the weapons in their hands
Rifles are like fire sticks and have no effect at all. The defenders are condescending on the city wall, and the situation is really not pretty.
