Wu Peifu never expected that he would be attacked by the enemy behind him. It must be said that Wu Peifu's men reacted very quickly. Once they heard someone firing from behind, they immediately got down and fought back. Two guns were fired at one time.
It was loud and chaotic.
The shooting position chosen by Han Donglin was just at the critical point of rifle shooting. He also knew that shooting his soldiers at this position would basically not hit the enemy on the opposite side, but he didn't care about this. His mission was to harass and involve the enemy, and fight.
It doesn't matter if you miss the enemy, as long as the enemy on the opposite side doesn't hit you.
Wu Peifu's men did not know this and thought it was the enemy's offensive shooting. Their instincts trained on the battlefield made them counterattack. However, this counterattack made it more difficult for Wu Peifu to judge the opponent's offensive intentions.
Wu Peifu's men fought back for a long time, but did not see the enemy rushing towards them. In the dark night, they did not know whether the enemy was ambushing them, and they did not dare to rush over to pursue them.
Wu Peifu called several of his officers and analyzed the battle pattern.
Wu Peifu held a telescope and observed the gunfire in the distance under the protection of the guard company. He said to his subordinates behind him for a long time: "According to my many years of experience, judging from the flames at the muzzle, the opponent is just a company."
It’s just a handful of troops, so don’t be afraid, not to mention the sound of gunfire, they don’t have any heavy weapons!”
A brigade commander walked forward two steps: "The commander is still experienced. He is worthy of being a hero. He can judge the number of enemy troops just by sound and light. I am brave, and I hope the commander will approve and let me lead him."
My soldiers, go and deal with these little thieves!"
Wu Peifu listened to the brigade commander's words. Although he knew that he was flattering, he was still very happy. He waved his hand and said: "Looking at this situation, the purpose of these enemies is not to attack, but rather to seduce. Besides,
We don’t know if they have an ambush nearby, so it’s better not to act rashly!”
The brigade commander stood at attention and said, "The commander is wise!"
Several officers nearby saw this guy flattering Marshal Wu in front of him. Although they smiled along with him, they couldn't help but feel contempt in their hearts.
Not to mention a commander, even a regimental commander and a battalion commander can judge the number of opponents from the glowing muzzles of their guns on such a dark day. Don't they know how to fight and how to count?
Also, when he didn't know the number of the opponent, this guy was too scared to say a word, for fear that he would go up to fight the opponent and lose his own strength. When he heard that the opponent only had one company of troops, he actually asked
It's really shameless to lead your own men to annihilate the enemy. You have a brigade of troops under your command. To use a brigade to annihilate a company is really shameful to grandma's house!
Although those few were dissatisfied, they did not dare to speak out. After all, even Marshal Wu was so happy to be flattered, so what else could they say!
Wu Peifu also decided not to provoke the enemies of this company and continued to march in the direction of Peiping. However, things didn't work out as he wanted. He wanted to leave, but the enemy still didn't want to let him go.
His soldiers had just stopped shooting and were heading towards Peiping. As soon as they took two steps, a mortar shell behind them drew a bright light in the air and fell straight into his team. There were more than a dozen soldiers on the spot.
The bomb was bloody and bloody.
Damn, it was so unbearable that Wu Peifu didn't need to give orders. The other soldiers immediately lay down on the ground and waited for the remaining shells. However, after waiting for a long time, there was no next shell attack.
Wu Peifu can't stand this kind of harassment anymore. What the hell is this method of fighting? Either come out and fight openly or don't follow me. This small team is like a maggot attached to its penis. It can't be shaken off and can't be beaten.
, which made Wu Peifu very uncomfortable.
What follows is even more uncomfortable. As soon as Wu Peifu's troops fight back, the gunfire from behind immediately stops, and the team withdraws a few hundred meters away, making it difficult to catch up. However, once Wu Peifu's team takes a step forward, the gunfire from behind will
As soon as I heard the sound, I remembered that from time to time, a cannonball would fall in the middle of the team.
If he continues like this, Wu Peifu will soon have a nervous breakdown. He still has a more important task. His purpose is to attack Peiping, not to go around in circles with the enemy here. However, as he goes back and forth, he also finds that if he cannot deal with the group behind him,
It is impossible to move forward on your own if you hate an enemy.
Therefore, Wu Peifu was determined and sent a regiment of troops to exterminate the followers behind him, while the rest of the team continued to advance.
One of his regiment leaders named Li Yue accepted this task and led his entire regiment there.
Wu Peifu was able to go on the road with peace of mind, but after walking for a short distance, he discovered that things were far from that simple.
Li Yue's team kept chasing towards the rear, but strangely enough, when he was not pursuing, the team behind him kept shooting, but once he started chasing, the team behind him never fired a bullet again.
Li Yue chased for a long time. Logically speaking, he should have caught up with the annoying enemy. However, after chasing for a long time, he realized that he did not seem to find any trace of the enemy. The enemy just seemed to have disappeared.
Nowhere to be found.
Li Yue is still wondering, since the enemy's target has disappeared, should he pursue it or not? If he pursues it, he will have to search everywhere. When the team goes far away, he may fall into the siege of the place, but no
Let's pursue him. First, he ignored the commander's order. It would be too embarrassing to go back like this. A regiment of troops can't kill a company of enemies. If you tell me, it will make people laugh.
Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, chase!
In order to find and deal with the enemy as quickly as possible, Li Yue divided the strength of his regiment into each battalion. The three battalions each looked for a direction to find the enemy as quickly as possible. Once the battle started,
The other two battalions must provide support quickly. If the enemy is not found within ten minutes, there is no way. No matter what the situation, everyone must return to the original position, otherwise they will not be able to catch up with the main force.
For Captain Li Yue, this method is also a helpless move. He knows that only in this way can he find and deal with the enemy as quickly as possible, but at the same time, he also knows that this way he will be easily found by the enemy and easier to be defeated by the enemy one by one.
At that time, I am afraid that he will not be able to care about each other, but at this time, he can no longer control so much!
