Chapter 20 Rebellion before the battle

"This is clearly a way to destroy us with the hands of the Hubei army...it cannot be beaten!"

"Why don't the Fengtian army let the elite troops go to the front line, but let us rush to the front line!"

"What do you say about the 9th Division stationed in the north, the 27th Division guarded Chenyang, and the 28th Division stayed at Ji Hei, it was all nonsense! It was obvious that he was killing people with a knife!"

"Driving miscellaneous cards to lead the way on the front line is the old routine of Fengjun."

"Xifengkou is absolutely impossible to attack! It is impossible to attack!"

"Forget it, let's join the Hubei army!"

"That's right, go to the Hubei army!"

"No, I think it's better to ignore the order and retreat first!"

"There is always a way to be born to others."

...

When Guo Junqing introduced the current enemy in a calm tone, the officers desperately vented all their resentment, and the scene seemed very chaotic, but Liu Jingxiao never spoke. Later, she simply closed her eyes and found a stool to sit down, which seemed to have nothing to do with these arguments.

Wu Canglei was impatient. Seeing this situation, he rushed to Liu Jingxiao's face, grabbed Liu Jingxiao's clothes, and asked loudly: "Jingxiao, let's say something, these more than 2,000 officers and soldiers are waiting for you!"

After he said this, several cadres from Suzaku also surrounded him and said, "Jingxiao, please say a few words!"

Liu Jingxiao pushed Wu Canglei's hand hard, opened his eyes, stood up, waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet: "Everyone, calm down, listen to me!"

The originally chaotic venue suddenly became quiet. Liu Jingxiao breathed a sigh of relief first, then pointed to the sky and said, "It has been a year since the Dingbian Army was established. Everyone has to live hardships with me and have never enjoyed any blessings. They can only climb ice, snow and slept in the open on weekdays. But no matter what, our Dingbian Army is worthy of Zhang Buyun and the 155,000 yuan military pay he paid."

Liu Jingxiao's words were no longer as elegant as usual, but instead had a strong sense of ruthlessness, especially the words "155,000 yuan military pay" in the end, and he spoke out word by word. Naturally, cadres from Zhuque came from below, waving flags and shouting. Even the cadres of Xiao Rulang and Murong Xuehai Camp said: "That's it! That's it! But is Zhang Buyun worthy of us!"

Liu Jingxiao breathed a sigh of relief again and raised her voice and said, "What I mean, go south! Xuehai, what do you think?"

His words are very knowledgeable. The so-called "going south" means to drag the troops to the Hubei army. Although the Dingbian Army belongs to the Fengtian Army, most of the officers and soldiers are Shandong and Hebei people recruited from the pass, and the cadres are of a very diverse background. However, only Xiao Rulangying is mostly Northeastern people recruited locally, and most of the cadres are from Northeastern martial arts halls.

Murong Xuehai did not disappoint Liu Jingxiao. He said firmly: "As long as the commander's arrangements, going south is the best way!"

The cadres of Xiao Rulang Camp immediately discussed. Most of them were from Northeast China. They were tired of their families and were unwilling to leave their hometowns and deprive their families of their families. They were even more unwilling to be persecuted because of this. Especially Bai Siwen just wanted to live a comfortable life, and he opened his mouth and saw Liu Jingxiao's eyes showing fierce light, so he shut up and stopped talking.

At this time, Xiao Rulang spoke: "If you don't want to go south, we won't force you! In such a unit, there is really no trouble, so it's better to go inside the pass! As for the family, please think of a good idea."

Xiao Rulang's words were finalized. Liu Jingxiao thought for a while and continued, "When you arrive in the pass, we will find a way to get a settlement fee and let the brothers outside the pass settle their family down before talking about it! As for those who don't want to go there with me, I will never force you to pay the travel fee and go home. But I will talk about it later when I arrive at Xifengkou, so I will avoid leaving and revealing the atmosphere. Let me say one more thing, if anyone wants to harm our group, don't blame me for being rude!"

As soon as these words were said, it was a response. The cadres were unwilling to go to Xifengkou to die, especially those from Zhuque. They have always regarded leaving the pass as a helpless plan, and they felt that the Fengtian army was almost a bandit group and had little room for development outside the pass. Returning to the Hubei army was the best plan.

Since he had made up his mind, Liu Jingxiao immediately assembled troops outside to explain the current situation and his determination. The officers and soldiers thought that the Nantou Hubei Army was the best strategy. After the speech was finished, Liu Jingxiao immediately ordered the troops to advance. Li Heyi's first battalion was followed by Xiao Rulang Camp, Liu Jingxiao's headquarters and direct team in the middle, followed by Murong Xuehai Camp, and the defender was Liu Jingxiao's most basic cavalry battalion, and all cavalry were arranged into two echelons to alternately cover, forming a "pin" battle formation.

From here to Xifengkou, the Fengtian Army only had local security teams and patrol battalions stationed. In terms of combat effectiveness, they were not Liu Jingxiao's opponents at all. Instead, the pursuit was even more terrifying. Therefore, this arrangement had already used the main force to deal with the former friendly forces behind them. The troops cut off the rear were Liu Jingxiao's direct cavalry battalion, and everyone was very satisfied with this arrangement.

Before leaving, Guo Junqing, who had a relationship with the 8th Division, took several cadres to Xifengkou to contact the 8th Division. There was a response before camping that night. The messenger who was sweating profusely reported that the 8th Division was very welcome to the operation of the temporary second detachment and had sent troops to pick them up and asked them to drive in quickly.

It turned out that Liu Jingxiao was going to camp on the spot. After receiving the news, he discussed with several battalion commanders and decided to go in overnight. Only Bai Siwen complained, but he was unwilling to leave the company he brought out, and he had no choice but to urge the officers and soldiers not to pull them down.

The next day at noon, the Ding Border Army finally met with a strengthening battalion that the Eighth Division came to pick up. In this way, the Ding Border Army's heart was settled.

Although the Eighth Division only sent a reinforcement battalion, looking at their majestic military appearance, brand new military uniforms, and their own ragged cotton coat, the entire formation would take a long time.

After getting closer, I looked at the opponent's rifled rifles with almost all. The officers were equipped with new revolvers, each well-trained, and six twelve-pound mountain howitzers strengthened to the battalion. Then I looked at the three two-pound cannons that were treasured in my formation. I am afraid that it would cost a lot to chew this battalion. The officers and soldiers of the Dingbian Army were all grateful that Liu Jingxiao's decision was very wise.

The two sides gathered together, with more than 3,000 people, and their courage was strong. The speed of the march slowed down slightly. The entire army arrived at Xifengkou in the morning of the next day. The Dingbian Army rushed for two days and two nights at this time, and was extremely tired. Fortunately, the Eighth Division had prepared barracks and food supplies.

The Eighth Division sent a deputy brigade commander over here and asked Liu Jingxiao's troops to stay first, and then arrange the future matters slowly, and at the same time revealed the intention of incorporation. Liu Jingxiao was also very satisfied with this and repeatedly expressed his willingness to reduce the troops into an independent regiment.

At this time, the group came over on horseback, and saw a man wearing a black windbreaker and wrapping his face in his clothes. It was not dawn and he couldn't see his figure clearly. There were several officers from the Eighth Division beside him, pointing at the Dingbian Army, turning around and riding a horse to leave.

But at this time, several battalion commanders felt that the person wearing a windbreaker was very familiar with him, and they couldn't remember who it was, so they talked about it.

Later, Guo Junqing finally remembered: "That man seems to be Lu Li?"

Wanyan Yuzhuo had not yet fallen asleep at this time. In the past two days, Liu Jingxiao felt sorry for her and asked her to ride her own ocean horse while she was hiking. However, she was still tired all over. However, she felt sorry for her husband not sleeping yet. After reminding Guo Junqing, she thought for a while and said, "Lu Li? Is the battalion commander who didn't let us enter the city outside Linxi City? But it really looks a bit like it!"

But Lu Li should be in Chengde! However, Liu Jingxiao thought about it carefully and felt that Guo Junqing seemed to be right. This person really looks like Lu Li. Could it be that Ruijun and Ejun secretly chatted with each other? Everyone discussed for a while, but there was no result. They were very sleepy, so they had to go to bed first.

When everyone woke up, the 8th Division sent a lot of comforting gifts to come. Because the Fengtian army had never treated this way, the troops were very excited. Only dozens of people voluntarily left the troops. Liu Jingxiao paid the travel expenses and was dismissed on the spot. This day passed.
