Wu Peifu set up his own team and fled in a panic. He couldn't even care about his feet or what was in front of him. He could only worry about Zhang Xueliang's troops behind him not to catch up.
Looking at Centipede Ridge in front of him, Wu Peifu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know where Han Baihang's team was hiding, but he knew for sure that he was here. He ignored the reminders of the soldiers behind him and plunged into this place.
The bottomless pass.
Wu Peifu's heart was not unprepared, but now he had no way to go. The only thing he could do now was to move forward.
Zhang Xueliang behind him heard the report from his soldiers that Wu Peifu in front had entered Centipede Ridge. At this time, he was happy. Because he also knew that Han Baihang's team was guarding the front, so it was better now. Wu Peifu entered by himself.
It's in your pocket, and you don't have to work hard to collect the net.
Han Baihang was still observing. He always felt that the uniforms of the soldiers who ran in were somewhat familiar. He had already guessed that they were close, but he did not want to believe the result. He ordered Gao Hongyi beside him to continue observing. He turned around and ordered
His own soldier said: "Shitou, Huzi, you two take the people. I will stop everyone who comes, but remember, don't shoot!"
Shitou and Huzi took the order. As soon as they set up the defensive line, Wu Peifu and others rushed in.
In the darkness of the night, Shitou Huzi couldn't see clearly who was on the other side, so he just followed Han Baihang's instructions and raised his gun and asked everyone who came in to put down their weapons and raise their hands to surrender.
Shitou Huzi took a closer look and saw that there were indeed a lot of soldiers watching, but all of them were looking gray and panting. Coupled with the sound of gunfire just now, everyone guessed that the one who was here was Shithuzi.
When Zi asked them to put down their weapons, a man who looked like an officer stood up and shouted: "Go and ask your division commander Han Baihang to come out. I have something to say to him!"
Although Shi Shihuzi couldn't see their faces clearly, their voices were very familiar. It was undoubtedly Wu Peifu and Marshal Wu. The two of them did not dare to neglect, and quickly sent people to invite Division Commander Han Baihang to come over. In addition, they no longer asked them to teach him anything.
arms.
When Han Baihang heard that it was Marshal Wu, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. Although this was bad news, the good thing about it was that he told himself: Marshal Wu was not dead.
As long as Marshal Wu is not dead, everything is easy to say. Han Baihang hurriedly ran to Marshal Wu's forehead. Seeing that Marshal Wu, who used to be so majestic in the past, was now in such a state of disheveled clothes and panic, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. He quickly asked Marshal Wu to take care of his soldiers.
Come in and ask your soldiers to bring Marshal Wu a kettle.
Wu Peifu knew that the situation was urgent, waved his hand, and then hurriedly said to Han Baihang: "I know that you are wearing Fengjun's clothes and eating Fengjun's food, but I, Wu Peifu, am incompetent and ended up like this today.
I want to pass by you, and I hope you won’t stop me, but if you do, I have nothing to say!”
With that said, without waiting for Han Baihang to answer, he led his men and walked straight over.
Seeing this situation, Han Baihang didn't say anything, but when his soldiers saw that Han Baihang didn't say anything, they wanted to leave, and naturally they raised their guns and prepared to shoot.
Han Baihang looked back and waved his hand to signal them to put down their guns and let each other go.
Seeing Han Baihang's soldiers put down their guns, Wu Peifu and his men breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Han Baihang was still thinking about his old relationship, so he safely escaped through Han Baihang's area.
Seeing Han Baihang let Wu Peifu go, Gao Hongyi sighed. He knew Han Baihang's dilemma. Emotionally, he agreed with Han Baihang's doing so, but as a soldier, doing so was simply collaborating with the enemy.
Gao Hongyi couldn't help but worry about Han Baihang. He walked up to Han Baihang and said: "Sir, if you do this, I'm afraid... if Zhang Xueliang is blamed, we won't be able to explain it easily!"
Han Baihang smiled bitterly. He also knew that he was sorry for his status as a soldier by doing this, but he had no regrets. He was fully capable of catching Wu Peifu, and even had the ability to execute him on the spot. But when he did that, he
He will have an uneasy conscience for the rest of his life. After all, he is his own senior officer and his own boss.
Han Baihang asked himself, he couldn't do such a thing.
He smiled bitterly and said: "If you do it, you will do it. Let alone Zhang Xueliang, even if Zhang Zuolin comes in person, I dare to admit that when the time comes, it won't be a big deal for me..."
Before Han Baihang finished speaking, he heard Zhang Xueliang's team chasing after him. Han Baihang sighed and ordered his men to continue setting up defensive formations, but they must not fire without his own orders, otherwise they will be dealt with according to military law.
Gao Hongyi didn't understand. If Zhang Xueliang came over at this time, shouldn't he be waiting? Why did he arrange a defensive formation? Could it be that Master Han Baihang and Master Han were going to fight with Zhang Xueliang...
Gao Hongyi didn't dare to think too much. He quickly went up to ask Han Baihang, but Han Baihang didn't give him a clear answer and just told him to execute the order.
After a while, Zhang Xueliang's team arrived at Centipede Ridge.
Zhang Xueliang had long known that Han Baihang's team was at Centipede Ridge, so he had already sent a signal to this place when Wu Peifu escaped, but he never received a response.
When Zhang Xueliang's troops arrived at Centipede Ridge, their team was blocked by Han Baihang. When Zhang Xueliang heard the news of the soldiers' arrival, he ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle, and came to the team amidst the objections of his generals.
ahead.
Zhang Xueliang had just walked in front of Han Baihang's soldiers when he saw Han Baihang running towards him. He stood at attention, gave a military salute and said: "Report to the Army Commander, Commander Han Baihang's troops are here to stop the enemy. I hope the Army Commander will give you instructions!"
Zhang Xueliang was angry and funny. He knew that Han Baihang did it on purpose, but he didn't have time to be nagging here, so he asked Han Baihang: "Where is Wu Peifu?"
Han Baihang stood at attention again and said: "Report to the commander of the army, Marshal Wu... I let him go!"
Zhang Xueliang and his generals looked at Han Baihang in disbelief. They seemed to be looking at a strange item. Zhang Xueliang never thought that Han Baihang would be so bold, but he had no time to argue with Han Baihang about this matter now.
He asked coldly: "Do you know the consequences of this?"
