Chapter 39 The Sichuan-Hubei War (5)

The Sichuan Army's attack this morning was also listless, and everyone watched Wang Jiling's progress in Nanjin Pass.

In the Sichuan Army, Wang Jiling was also the number one person who could fight. He had half a set on both the bed and immediately, but he felt something was wrong from the beginning. Liu Jingxiao's artillery fire was too fierce.

Liu Jingxiao had just arrived at the front line and was deployed in Nanjin Pass. The original two twelve-pound mountain howitzers were wanted to be transferred out for mobile combat, but Commander Wang was not lucky. When he started attacking, the two mountain dunes had not left.

The six howitzers were all exerted together, and naturally they were extremely powerful. The Sichuan infantry that gathered together called the sky and the earth. Commander-in-Chief Wang sent another battalion to test the attack. Before they even approached Nanjin Pass, they let one-third of the troops be destroyed.

Commander-in-Chief Wang urged other troops to attack quickly, but the result was that: "In the fierce battle on the front line, the enemy and our casualties were heavy..." But when he heard it at Nanjin Pass, there was no gunfire, and everyone was working hard.

Commander-in-Chief Wang also had the mentality of following herds and immediately stopped the attack.

He stopped attacking Nanjin Pass, so everyone naturally waited for the troops of the Quick Transformation Division to come up. The battle report that morning was "The battle was fierce for half a day, and there were no casualties between the enemy and us..."

When Liu Jingxiao saw that the Sichuan Army did not attack, he was happy to delay time. Now he was waiting for Wanyan Yuzhuo and Shen Xianqiao to transport their main troops, and then a large counterattack would be launched to defeat the Sichuan Army.

In the afternoon of the same day, the army of the Quick-Term who came to reinforce the Military Preparation Division finally arrived at the front line. There were as many as 32 regiments in four divisions and two routes. When Wang Jiling heard them coming, he kindly ran to urge him: "After these days of hardship, Liu Jingxiao has been beaten to a long life. As long as you go up and charge, you can rush to Yichang directly... Whoever enters Wuhan first, the four beauties in Sichuan are his..."

This is an idea of ​​consuming other people's strength. The Martial Arts Department refers to the Sichuan Martial Arts School. The Quick-Term School refers to the Sichuan Military Officer Quick-Term School. The students from the two schools form a series and compete to dominate Sichuan. In addition, there are also organizations of the Baoding Department and the Military Officer Department in Sichuan. The Chinese are so good at forming cliques.

However, the Quick Generation Department does not take this set. In the past few days, the Martial Arts Department was repelled by Liu Jingxiao under Nanjin Pass. It is said that a platoon of cannons came over and a regiment was gone. Let us charge and die? Absolutely not!

After discussion, the generals of the Quick-Term Department learned the advanced management experience of coastal provinces and proposed that "the employees must be fully motivated and the compensation must be paid in advance." The implication is that the Military Preparation Department will pay a large amount of military pay in advance, so that the Preparm Department can start to go to Yichang.

Commander-in-Chief Wang gritted his teeth and squeezed out 80,000 yuan from his teeth to the generals of the Quick-Success Sect. When the cadres who returned to the camp and the Military Preparatory Sect made the Military Preparatory Sect grit their teeth and scolded the Quick-Success Sect for taking advantage of others' dangers!

This money was not paid by Commander Wang alone, but was deducted from everyone's military pay. In this way, I would have to visit the brothel a few times this month!

Let’s talk about the front line of Hunan and Hubei. When the Hunan Army saw that the back road of Yueyang was raided, it hurriedly ran away, preparing to withdraw back to Changsha and make plans.

The rabbit could kick it hard a few times when it was anxious, let alone tens of thousands of living people. The Hunan Army fully exerted its strong marching power and rushed to the Miluo River.

Xiang Governor Yi Hengzhao rode his horse in front, and when he arrived at the riverside, his heart felt cold. At this time, the autumn water was in a hurry and the river surface was wide, but there was no small boat on the river surface.

It was useless to find a few small boats. These tens of thousands of Hunan soldiers crossed over with a few small boats. At that time, Chen Yunjie's army had already come and disarmed all of his troops.

The fat man Lu Dangping was anxious when he saw this situation and shouted loudly: "Go and find the boat! Go and find the boat!"

But it is not so easy to find ships. The ships here are recruited by the Hunan Army to the front line. Now these ships are still trapped by the Zhi army on the front line of Yuezhou. As a result, after searching for most of the day, they can't even find a small boat.

There was a river in front and a tiger-like pursuit behind, so I was really worried about a group of Hunan generals.

The Hunan Army only brought a small number of engineers, and it was almost impossible to build bridges on the river. Even if it was logged and built a ship, Lu Dangping was so angry that he shouted: "It would be great to build a floating bridge here..."

Although the children of Sanxiang are quite good in water, maybe there are still a few people who can swim in the Yangtze River, but the autumn water is fast, and the river is wide. At most, there are 180 people who can swim out of the river. The rest are like Doctor Sanlu who jumped into the Milu River and had fun with fish and shrimps.

Yi Heng and Zhao were always steady and couldn't sit still at this time. He shouted loudly: "Who can come here? Rewards, and be promoted to level 3!"

When Cao Cao was talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. At this time, two large ships came from the river. There were no flags on the ship and I didn’t know which ship it was. The Hunan Army officers and soldiers were not caring about it and hurriedly shouted: “Come here! Reward! Reward! Reward!”

Both ships slowed down and soon put down a small boat from the ship. The small boat immediately rowed over here and soon landed. A gentleman in a suit and tie jumped ashore and spoke a standard northern man-made speech, "I wonder what can I help?"

This man was in his thirties and seemed polite. Yida Zhao immediately replied: "Please send us across the river, and I will thank you very much!"

The gentleman bowed to Yi Heng and Zhao Yi and said, "I wonder how much price the Governor is willing to pay?"

Yi Hengzhao replied: "Just transport us across the river, the price is easy to say!"

The gentleman still spoke a standard northern mantra: "How about a boat with 200,000 yuan?"

This is a lion's mouth, 200,000 yuan. Not to mention crossing the army across the river, you can buy four or five such ships.

When Chen Yunjie bribed Liu Jingxiao, he only made a price of 300,000 yuan, and two ships of 400,000 yuan, which was enough to pay the fourth brigade of the second division of the Hunan Army for a month. A group of Hunan Army generals shook their heads and said, "It's too expensive... can it be cheaper..."

Yi Hengzhao took a breath of air conditioning and asked tentatively: "How about ten thousand yuan?"

This is true value. Two ships ran to get 10,000 yuan, which was a big profit. The gentleman replied with a smile: "Since it's 198,000 yuan for a ship!"

Lu Dangping recognized the origin of the gentleman and shouted loudly: "Ai Shuishu, you Liefeng people are so ruthless!"

Aisu Saburo still greeted him with a smile, and he replied: "It turns out to be Commander Lu... The price of Chen Yunjie is much higher than that of us..."

The Liefeng people have always been tricky. Whenever the civil war begins, they will work hard among all parties to make great profits. Today, this situation is common in the Republican civil war, but the price tags offered by the Liefeng people today are too ruthless.

The fat man Lu Dangping was so angry that he was so angry that he shouted: "If you dare not be lucky, I will use the artillery team to smash your ship... Besides, if you dare not be lucky, your personal safety will be..."

Ai Mizusaburo still treated him with a smile, and he said, "Teacher Lu can give it a try..."

As he said that, he jumped onto the boat again and said, "If you want us to do this business, just give us a command! Let's take a look up first and come back in an hour!"

Lu Dangping was not confident enough and did not dare to stop Aisu Saburo from leaving. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

But the sound of guns and cannons in the rear became more and more urgent. The two regiments of the rear guard resisted the attack of the Zhi army. If they did not get ships, all the tens of thousands of Hunan troops would become prisoners of the Zhi army.

A group of Hunan Army generals discussed there, but there was no way. Lu Dangping explained the origin of Aishui Sanlang. This man was a Liefeng Army University. He regarded himself as a general of China. He came to China for two years and is now a reserve colonel of the Liefeng Army.

The Liefeng people have always had the ambition to dominate East Asia. This Aishui Sanlang is the radical faction in the Liefeng army. He clamored to occupy the northeast of Mongolian and Xinjiang. He also regarded himself as a Chinese Communist Party and implemented the conspiracy of the Liefeng people on the Yangtze River.

The Hunan generals couldn't help but scolded the Liefeng people for being shameless, but one thing they had to admit is that the Northern Han people who love Shui Sanlang were very much like the behavior of dealing with things. They did not have any Fusang style, and China was a common saying.

But after discussing for more than half an hour, there was still no result. Seeing that the troops behind the rear could not hold back, Yi Hengzhao gritted his teeth and was about to be hacked by the Liefeng people for the last time. He had to let these tens of thousands of Sanxiang's children return to Changsha.

Tianyou Xiang Army, at this time, two small steamer ships sailed on the river. Although the tonnage is small, it is absolutely no problem for each ship to carry a hundred and eighty people. The Hunan Army suddenly had hope and shouted: "Boatman, come here quickly! Come here quickly!"

When the small steamer got closer, Yi Hengzhao was in a cold air. He hung three flags. The first one was the five-color national flag of the Republic, which was no problem. The second one was the Shen family in Sichuan, and there was no problem, but the third one was the flag of the First Navy Fleet. He immediately took another breath of air conditioning.

During this Hunan-Hubei War, the First Fleet made a lot of efforts in the Zhijun side. The Hunan Army had no right to control water, which was considered a great loss. Therefore, when they saw this flag, they touched Yi Du's thoughts.

Could it be that this is the warship sent by the First Fleet to intercept? Unlike, the ship is not only small tonnage, but also not equipped with artillery. At this time, two small steamers were approaching the shore. A charming woman stood at the bow of the ship and asked loudly: "How much do you pay?"

Seeing the 30,000 to 40,000 Hunan troops being trapped on the river bank, Yi Hengzhao asked loudly: "We will pay 40,000 yuan, as long as you can get us over quickly!"

The woman replied, "Come 50,000!"

Fifty thousand is also enough, which is always cheaper than the 400,000 yuan of the Liefengren. Governor Yi immediately agreed, and two small steamers immediately came over. Immediately, a Hunan Army soldier jumped up and wanted to turn to Changsha and then come back to fight the Zhijun to the death.

Fortunately, Yi Du’s prestige was high enough, so he stopped the officers and soldiers who wanted to rush up and said loudly: “Don’t be anxious! Come in order!”

Fortunately, Chinese people have always had the atmosphere of queuing, so everyone can only accept this arrangement. However, since there is the atmosphere of queuing, the behavior of jumping into the back door is inevitable.

The first time I crossed the river was either the son of a certain commander or the relative of a certain commander. The Chinese people have a strong sense of privilege. The commander of the division and brigade always had to cross the river safely by taking the first boat. Moreover, the river was extremely dangerous, so how could Yi go to the dangerous situation? Yi Jun must take a step forward.

Governor Yi got on the boat and found that the owner of the boat was two stunning women. One had a mature charm and his every move was infinite, but he had a tough and courageous temperament. She was the one who came out to greet the business just now, and the other was a stunning woman in the 28th year. Youruo came down to earth and hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

The older woman replied, "We are the wife of Liu Jingxiao, Dingbian Army. There are a few small boats to do some small business..."

This small business is not small, and it only takes dozens of round trips to earn 50,000 yuan. However, the Hunan Army was not grateful. When he heard Liu Jingxiao's reputation, he quickly praised Liu Jingxiao.

Liu Jingxiao fought against the Hunan Army on the Yanglou Office for eight days with two regiments. Although he was on a hostile position, the Hunan Army admired Liu Jingxiao's ability to fight. Later, Liu Jingxiao helped the Hunan Army in Wuxue to provide a large number of arms.

Even though he later joined the Zhi army, he turned to Yichang to block the Sichuan army from entering Hubei and never opposed the alms. Besides, now Liu Jingxiao is stationed in Yichang, Chen Yunjie also appointed him as the "Commander-in-Chief of the Upper Yangtze River" and the "European Guardian of the West", and is considered a key person in Hubei.

The failure of this aid to Hubei will definitely be related to the restoration of Hubei. Maybe there will be more places to rely on Liu Jingxiao in the future.

However, the Hunan Army general envied Liu Jingxiao to death. Liu Jingxiao was really lucky! He married such two wives who were more beautiful than flowers, not to mention that these two wives were so good at managing the family.

Wanyan Yuzhuo said, "Don't praise my husband, he is now fighting fiercely with the Sichuan Army for several days in Nanjin Pass, and he still doesn't know the outcome!"

These Hunan generals in unison comforted the two Lady Liu, saying that Yichang didn’t have to worry. The Sichuan Army was a famous Tofu Army. Liu Jingxiao was so good at fighting, so he naturally had to come. At that time, I hope Commander-in-Chief Liu will take care of Hunan.

Yi Hengzhao looked down on the mud monkeys of the Sichuan Army from the bottom of his heart, but instead looked forward to establishing a good relationship with the Dingbian Army through the relationship between the two Lady Liu. Of course, if Liu Jingxiao is defeated, the Zhijun will have to free up his hands to use troops to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which is also a good situation.

The river surface is wide or narrow. It takes about three or four minutes to cross a train. Just as Wanyan Yuzhuo and Shen Xianqiao were re-directing the fleet to transport the second echelon, Aisu Saburo's two large ships also turned back. When Wanyan Yuzhuo's small steamer had already snatched his job, he ran away in shame.

The most feared thing about the huge profit industry is vicious price-pressure competition. Wanyan Yuzhuo originally wanted to make tens of thousands of yuan, but he actually made a big fortune by tying the people of the harsh wind.

After six or seven hours of crossing, the Hunan Army crossed the river. Yi Hengzhao did not break his promise and immediately issued a check of 55,000 yuan to the two ladies Liu. This was the money he had stored in the private account of Shanghai Industrial Bank. The extra 5,000 yuan was considered a thank-you fee. Wanyan Yuzhuo and Shen Xianqiao were polite before accepting it.
