After getting ashore, the Sichuan Army gave Liu Jingxiao a warning. The representatives of the Yichang officials and civilians who were greeting told Liu Jingxiao that Badong had lost his sister, and the Sichuan Army went downstream and was very stable. It was estimated that the troops would come to Yichang soon.

Liu Jingxiao immediately launched troops in Yichang City. Liu Jingxiao brought about 3,000 troops to Yichang, which was the main force of the First and Second Regiments and some directly affiliated troops. The Yichang area is all mountainous terrain, so Mengding brought Simen Mountain Dippers first. The main force of the Third and Fourth Regiments and the Artillery Regiments are still waiting for transportation in Wuxue.

As soon as the fleet of China Merchants unloaded Liu Jingxiao's troops, waited for OnePlus to get the coal water, and immediately returned to transport Liu Jingxiao's second echelon.

The second time they will be the main force of the Mengding Kingdom's artillery regiment and other direct teams. Liu Jingxiao is expected to arrive the morning after tomorrow, and the rest of the troops will not arrive in Yichang until the day after tomorrow.

Because of insufficient troops, Liu Jingxiao deployed all his troops in Jiangbei. However, with the First Navy Fleet intercepting the river, Liu Jingxiao can be said to be at ease.

The mountains on the front line of Yichang are undulating and are most suitable for defensive wars. Liu Jingxiao's Dingbian Army fought with the Hunan Army on the front line of Yanglousi for eight days. She has rich experience in mountain warfare. The only regret is that the troops are reorganized, and the relationship between the officers and soldiers is relatively unfamiliar.

However, the First Division had navy assisted in the war, and both regiment commanders said to Liu Jingxiao, "Please fight!". No wonder they were impatient. Now the First Division of Hubei Army has organized four regiments. Logically speaking, two more brigade commanders should be assigned. By the way, the battalion commander was promoted to the regiment commander and the regiment commander was already Pingyun Qingyun. If we go further, wouldn't it be a step to reach the sky?

The four regiment commanders were staring at these two positions. Xiao Rulang and Li Heyi complained to Liu Jingxiao several times because they could not participate in the battle as soon as possible.

The local people in Yichang, the troops' barracks, had already made arrangements, and Guo Junqing was responsible for the food and military supplies. My sister's return was only one day away from Yichang, so Liu Jingxiao sent Battalion Commander Hu Bo from the Second Regiment to the front line for reconnaissance.

On this day, Liu Jingxiao was busy for most of the day. It was strange to say that after several years of spring with Wanyan Yuzhuo, his energy was still abundant, which made the cadres very surprised.

By noon, Hu Bo returned to search for invincible romance in front of him. As soon as he reported the enemy situation, Ding Ning rushed into the headquarters in a blazing manner and reported excitedly: "The Sichuan Army was found in Xiling Gorge!"

Liu Jingxiao arranged Ding Ning's mission in advance to patrol the city of Yichang. Unexpectedly, she took the initiative to run out for reconnaissance. Hu Bo was unhappy because Ding Ning stole the first prize. He interrupted and said, "What do you mean?"

Liu Jingxiao originally didn't want Ding Ning's cavalry company to participate in the battle, and Ding Ning also wanted to stay in Wuxue to continue training the troops, but Duan Zhijie, the deputy battalion commander of the training camp, disagreed and forced Ding Ning's cavalry company to follow Liu Jingxiao's first echelon to Dingchang.

Although Hu Bo's second regiment was adapted from the cavalry battalion of the old Dingbian Army, there is no cavalry in the entire regiment now. The original cavalry company was transferred by Liu Jingxiao to the direct cavalry battalion of the First Division of the Hubei Army. There are many mountains in Yichang and are not suitable for cavalry combat, so the cavalry battalion could only stay in the third echelon.

However, although the Yichang front line is not suitable for cavalry combat, it is quite convenient to use military horses to travel. Ding Ning is actually playing the role of dismounted cavalry. When he heard that Hu Bo Battalion was going to be sent out for reconnaissance, he immediately led the cavalry company to run dozens of miles. The two sides happened to collide in Xiling Gorge. She reported the truth to Liu Jingxiao: "The first battalion of Sichuan Army is coming here!"

Liu Jingxiao pondered for a moment and asked, "First Battalion?"

Ding Ning's pretty face showed a very proud look: "About six or seven hundred people... are almost the first battalion!"

Hu Bo found this opportunity to retaliate and said proudly: "My Miss Ding! That should be a bunch, right?"

Ding Ning clenched his fists hard and shouted at Hu Bo: "Why are six or seven hundred people not a battalion?"

Liu Jingxiao explained to her: "The Sichuan Army has a small organization, and a regiment is usually less than a thousand people. Generally speaking, six or seven hundred people are normal to form a regiment... Where are they?"

Ding Ning hesitated for a while before saying, "I guess the itinerary is that I can go to Nanjin Pass tonight..."

Nanjin Pass is located at the east entrance of Xiling Gorge. It has a dangerous terrain and is a place that military strategists of all dynasties have fought for. The terrain on both sides of the straits are dangerous, with steep walls standing upright and narrow river surfaces, like the mouth of a thin bottle, locking the surging river. Liu Jingxiao's defense line is basically arranged on the line of Nanjin Pass.

When both regiment commanders heard the news, they were very excited. Murong Xuehai said, "It's better to ambush them on the front line of Nanjin Pass! Nanjin Pass is known as a natural danger. Several ambush troops will surely win in one battle!"

Chen Ce also agreed with this opinion. Liu Jingxiao did not make a hasty decision and asked Ding Ning again: "Did you find out about the Sichuan Army?"

Ding Ning brushed his short hair and said, "No, when I was reconnaissance with a telescope on the mountain, the Sichuan Army came out from the foot of the mountain, but they didn't notice us! We were also very careful!"

Liu Jingxiao asked again and again: "Do they have successor troops? How many artillery soldiers are there?"

Ding Ning was very careful: "It looks average, without cannons, and the military appearance is not flat, but it maintains the combat formation!"

Liu Jingxiao nodded and said, "Okay! Junqing, let's give up Nanjin Pass for the time being!"

Guo Junqing nodded and said, "Good idea!"

Murong Xuehai also nodded and praised: "Teacher, this plan is wonderful!"

If the Sichuan Army enters Hubei, one is to take a waterway, but with the navy, no matter how many small wooden boats the Sichuan Army have, several officers from the First Fleet have already communicated with Liu Jingxiao: "How many come, how many are destroyed... If you let a sampan out, you will chop me..."

Although the Sichuan Army was set up as a naval commander, the navy was extremely weak, without a small boat of more than 100 tons. Although the warships of the First Fleet were all broken old antiques, they were able to be proud of these small wooden boats, which was really awesome.

The other one is to go down the river. Liu Jingxiao completely abandoned the Jiangnan Road. He just blocked the Jiangbei Road. Of course, the Sichuan Army continued to ignore Jiangbei and headed south along the river. As long as the Sichuan Army was not afraid that Liu Jingxiao would wait for their front team to cross Yichang and immediately cross the river and trampled their retreat, they would defeat their baggage and successive teams. Moreover, if they marched in Jiangnan, they would be dragged to death if they were not starved to death.

As for Jiangbei, as long as the Sichuan Army seized the Nanjin Pass line, it would be a great success and then captured Yichang City, it could go straight along the river and meet with the Hunan Army in Wuhan (the Sichuan Army did not know that the vanguard of Liu Jingxiao's division had arrived in Yichang). Even if it did not occupy the entire province of Hubei, controlling Jingxiang was the best strategy. The old saying goes that since ancient times, there have been no one who could lose Jingxiang and maintain the southeast.

Before occupying Nanjin Pass, the Sichuan Army would definitely remain vigilant. When they pass Nanjin Pass, their vigilance will be relaxed immediately. At that time, the entire army will easily fight out. Wouldn't it be a great achievement? So Murong Xuehai praised Liu Jingxiao's plan.

At the order of Liu Jingxiao, the defenders arranged to the Nanjin Pass line retreated immediately. In the evening, a Sichuan army was indeed crossing Nanjin Pass and heading towards Yichang.

Only half of the Sichuan Army were wearing military uniforms, and the others were wearing casual clothes and carrying strange-shaped rifles. Liu Jingxiao could not tell what it was for a moment, and his military discipline was also very lazy. At first, he could form four sparse marching columns, but later he simply turned into a scattered formation in groups of three or three.

Ding Ning had no vision. The total number of this Sichuan Army was about 800 to 900 people, but it was indeed a regiment. Liu Jingxiao slapped her and praised Ding Ning: "This time you are the first to discover the Sichuan Army, and you have a great contribution!"

Ding Ning was also very proud, only Hu Bo was discouraged. He originally thought that the Sichuan Army would enter Yichang overnight after leaving Nanjin Pass, but he didn't expect that the Sichuan Army would find a village nearby and live. Soon, the sound of killing pigs and killing sheep sounded in the village. Liu Jingxiao immediately asked Hu Bo to take his battalion to reoccupy the Nanjin Pass line, cutting off the Sichuan Army's retreat.

Liu Jingxiao had set up an ambush on the way to Yichang with Murong Xuehai Group. When he saw this situation, he didn't expect that the Sichuan Army was so idiotic, and this Hua Si was in vain.

The sound of blowing and beating came from the village occupied by the Sichuan Army, and then the sound became more and more noisy. Sichuan curses such as "The ancestor Banban... the turtle son" could be heard vaguely.

Seeing that the time had come, Liu Jingxiao immediately gave an order, and a battalion of Murong Xuehai Group and Chen Ce Group rushed to the village with a cat.

The Sichuan Army's defense was too relaxed, and they didn't even put up sentries. They set up hundreds of tables in the village, waiting for the meal. During this period before the meal, they naturally tried their best to fight the enemy.

As for combat tools, one is not a cannon, two is not a quick gun, that is the favorite of Sichuan people - Sichuan mahjong.

There are hundreds of tables that can spread hundreds of mahjong. The winds in the southeast, west and north are blowing strongly, and the red and white boards are all in color. Everyone throws their weapons to the ground and throws them into this life-and-death battle.

There are hundreds of appearances in the battle of the birds, some people who whisper in a low voice, some people who wave their arms and shout, some people who cheer on the side, some people who are outside the game but are victorious, and some people who are scheming and observing their expressions are truly showing the infinite wisdom of the Chinese.

The command center of the Sichuan Army is located in the west of the village. There is actually a band nearby, playing the suona hard, and I don’t know what good news is.

Liu Jingxiao didn't care about this and led the team himself, holding a revolver in his left hand and a Xueliang battle knife in his right hand. He followed a group of tiger and wolf troops, each holding Xueliang bayonet and shouted: "Stop the gun and don't kill it! Raise your hands!"

Before the Sichuan Army could react, someone cursed: "Which turtle son..." When he turned around, he saw the black rifle and the cold bayonet, his face was pale for a moment, and he immediately raised his hands and knelt on the ground.

The attack was smooth, but it was really Zhao Zilong's seven-in-seven-out-7-out-the-changbanpo, and he regarded this group of Sichuan troops as nothing, but the performance of the Sichuan troops was really not good. Only a small team of Sichuan troops fired a few bullets here. As a result, Murong Xuehai responded to two rounds of volleyballs, and the other party shouted: "Let's surrender..."

Liu Jingxiao was even more desperate and rushed to the front line, ignoring the Sichuan Army who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy along the way, and rushed to the Sichuan Army's command center.

The command center of the Sichuan Army was located in the west of the village. As soon as Liu Jingxiao rushed to the scene, she saw a person walking out of the command center. Before she could respond, she didn't look at the situation here and scolded loudly: "Who shoots the gun! Which turtle son is not eyed? Today is my happy day!"

Liu Jingxiao rushed forward quickly, using both hands with swords and guns, pointed the revolver at his head, pressed the sword against his chest, and shouted: "Surrender quickly!"

This man was about sixty years old and very thin. When he saw Liu Jingxiao's fierce appearance, he was immediately scared to the ground and shouted: "Guard! Guard!"

However, the guards were out of the way. The subsequent troops rushed into the headquarters and immediately disarmed the guards. Chen Ce returned that the Sichuan Army regiment had been completely solved, and there were less than ten casualties in the First Division.

Liu Jingxiao was very happy and glanced at the Sichuan Army officer who was frightened to the ground. He saw that the man's pants were wet, and he was actually wet. When he looked at the guy carefully, his hair and beard were white, his eyes were rolling around, and he was not wearing a military uniform. He was wearing a royal blue lake crepe shirt used by the groom, and a red ribbon was tied in a diagonal manner. His clothes were brand new. In fact, he was dressed in tens of grooms. He heard the crying of a woman inside.

Well, this guy just entered the village and in less than an hour, he forced the girl to rob and handle the marriage!

When he heard that the front line had captured a large number of prisoners, the two brothers Fu Sbo and Hua Yueying rushed over and said loudly: "It's so good! Brother Liu, all the prisoners in this camp belong to me!"

He looked carefully and pointed, thinking that the old man was useless, and it was a waste of tonnage when he pulled him to Taiwan. He said, "Of course, except for this battalion commander!"

The old man recovered at this time. When he heard Fu Sibo's words, he retorted loudly: "I am the brigade commander... the brigade commander..."

Liu Jingxiao smiled and said, "It's easy to say! It's easy to say! I'll give you all the captives in this group!"

The old man immediately stood up and said excitedly: "That means returning all the troops of my other two regiments of the brigade to me? That's fine, that's fine."

Three regiments? Liu Jingxiao and Fu Sibo were stunned. Just now, Murong Xuehai reported the number of prisoners, which was 9000. This amount of troops was still very capable of forming an infantry regiment. Could it be that the Sichuan Army was so perverted that more than 900 people could form a brigade and three regiments?

Just as she was thinking, Murong Xuehai walked over with a laugh, holding a rifle used by the Sichuan Army, shouting: "Antique! Antique! I found antique..."

Liu Jingxiao just thought the Sichuan Army rifle was very strange. After careful observation, she found the Ao Art.

Such antiques are extremely difficult to find on the market. Even if any expert is willing to sell them in stock, they still have to sell them at a sky-high price. Unexpectedly, there are so many exquisite things in the Sichuan Army.

This thing is the new mesh rope gun purchased from the West when the Restoration Army founded the Republic. I really didn't expect that the Sichuan Army would be equipped with such advanced rifles.

You should know that such rifles, not to mention elite troops, are even more miscellaneous troops. Fifty years ago, they had already been equipped with new smoothbore guns. The Sichuan Army actually cherished the glorious tradition of the first town that year. These Sichuan Army were almost equipped with old-style mesh rope guns...
