Chapter 4 Clouds (Part 2)
Yuguan.
Since ancient times, the Northern Army has mostly led troops from Yu Pass. During the second Zhifeng War, the Feng army also concentrated its elite troops on this line, led by Zhang Buyun and Sun Tingyu. As for the Rehe line, it often uses miscellaneous brands such as Chen Sheng. The Zhifeng Army also concentrated its main forces on this line, led by Peng Shou, the commander of the 12th Division with "Peng Thorn", and his chief of staff was the famous Lu University instructor Li Bochun, who was skilled in tactics.
The two sides first had frequent small-scale conflicts. On the afternoon of July 29, the Zhi army found signs of mobilization of the Fengtian army. At night, a Fengtian army soldier came to report that the Fengtian army launched a raid at 4:00 a.m. the next day, Peng Shou immediately ordered the entire line to be on guard. As expected, the Fengtian army attacked with infantry on the entire line, with the sound of guns and cannons intertwined, and then launched a hand-to-hand attack.
In particular, the Feng army's attack focused on the front line of Sanyan City, and three regiments were used to launch fierce attacks. The skillful tactical cooperation and the bravery of the officers and soldiers surprised the Zhi army.
In the eyes of Zhijun, the Feng army was the garbage force that was almost a bandit-like brand in the Zhifeng war. The two battalions of Sanyan City were under great pressure. Fortunately, this was the elite force in Zhijun. The battle was brave but calm. The sound of guns and cannons continued to attack repeatedly. When the battle was at its peak, the Zhijun even rushed to the position. Without a rifle, he picked up a shoulder pole to fight. After three hours of fighting, it was dawn. The artillery firepower of Zhijun was exerted and the troops were supported. The Fengjun retreated.
The Feng army retreated and was bombarded by the Zhi army artillery, with many casualties, but they were still able to maintain their formation. Peng Shou was rigid and truthfully reflected the combat effectiveness of the Feng army in the telegram: "The Feng army has been completely renewed, different from the day before yesterday!"
The Feng army soldier who came to report was from Baoding. Because the report was true, Li Bochun gave a reward of 100 yuan and left happily. He also fought fiercely on the front line of Rehe that day. Chen Sheng and Li Lin's former Hubei army's miscellaneous troops showed their courage and fought with the Second Army of Zhijun for a series of battles. The Zhijun was forced to retreat.
The next day, fierce battles were launched on the front line of Yuguan again, and what opened the Zhi army's eyes was the Feng army's artillery. The Feng army actually concentrated four artillery regiments and a heavy artillery regiment to bombard the Zhi army's positions. There were many damaged positions. According to Zhi army, it was Zou Hua who commanded the Feng army's operations. This lord was an artillery battalion commander of the old Hubei army. The Zhi-Europe War was incorporated by the Feng army. After that, he followed Zhang Buyun to work extremely hard.
Zou Hua graduated from Baoding Military Academy and had many classmates from the University of Mainland. Zhang Buyun was determined to reorganize the military and military preparations to avenge his shame. The Zhijun liked officers from the army. Most of the graduates of the military academy could not serve as chief officers, but could only serve as chief officers and other positions. He had no power. Even if he served as chief officers, he would have to be demoted to two levels. For example, the chief of staff of the division could only serve as chief officers, and more often there was no chance to serve as chief officers.
Zhang Buyun was determined to introduce fresh blood and give priority to the use of high-quality military academy officers. With Zou Hua's introduction, there were many graduates from Lu University and Baoding who came out of the pass, and Zhang Buyun even booked a hotel to entertain them. Zou Hua worked very hard outside the pass, and his achievements in artillery construction were far superior to those of the Zhi army. He had been the artillery commander of the Feng army for several years.
After all, the 12th Division was a powerful brigade of the Zhi army. The elite troops expanded from the Third Division remained motionless under the fierce artillery bombardment. They attacked several times in front of the formation and finally stopped the attack of the Feng army. In the afternoon, the Feng army's artillery fire became even more intense, with gunpowders filled with smoke and shrapnel flying everywhere. The entire Zhi army's position was suppressed by artillery fire.
Li Bochun, the chief of staff of the 12th Division, adjusted his deployment when the situation was very tight, and personally went to the front-line troops to inspect to inspire morale. During the inspection, a liaison officer Feibu came to Li Bochun's ear and said: "The Jiumenkou and the deserted mountain pass were lost at the same time. Our troops on that front have retreated and are now retreating to Shimenzhai!"
Li Bochun calmed himself down and said to Peng Shou softly: "The war in the Thirteenth Mixed Brigade is not good, and the Nine Gate is lost!" Peng Shou also calmed himself down and continued to inspect the position without any trouble, but the war was urgent, so he only stopped for a moment and returned to the command center.
Jiumenkou, also known as Yibishi, is located in Suizhong. It is the main throat of the northeast entering the Central Plains. It can reach the Feng army in the east and Beijing in the west, and it is a place that must be fought for by military strategists. The front of Jin enters a stone to defeat the Li family's rebel army. In the front of Jin, someone chants poems that say, "The mountain is ten thousand 10000 by the east sea, and the Great Wall is especially among the white clouds. The beacon smoke does not report to the Zhonghe Hall, and the key is the first pass. The snow in the desert is burying the war bones, and the rain in the south passes the knife ring. The Han family is full of beauty and now the left of Liao, and the iron horse and gold sword are idle every year." It can be seen that it is dangerous.
The area is the garrison of the 13th mixed brigade of the Zhi army. Although the brigade is a direct direct unit, it has only two regiments and its combat power is not strong. The chief officer is Feng Rong, who has been transferred from other troops. Feng Da was originally a little involved with the Feng army, and the two regiment commanders were not convinced by the airborne brigade commander.
Feng Rong was a little weak by nature. Both regiment commanders needed ammunition and kept arguing, but they distributed the ammunition in their hands evenly. Until they were divided, the two regiment commanders kept arguing about the position, but they ended up accusing them in every way.
Under this situation, the Feng army concentrated its forces to launch an attack. Sun Tingyu wrapped himself in a blanket, and was on the position, and led his troops to rush. In this case, the two regiments of the Zhi army could not support him and asked Feng Rong for reinforcements. Feng Rong did not control the reserve team in advance. In the end, the natural dangerous position at Jiumenkou was lost and the troops retreated backwards.
After Peng Shou received the report, he was shocked. The only troops that could be used in front of him were a new Shaanxi Army division (actually only has one regiment of troops) at Changli Station. He could only catch any troops and use them. He ordered the Shaanxi Army to advance to Shimen Village immediately. He also sent high-ranking officer Zhang Dengju to take four machetes out of Shimen Village to supervise the battle on the front line at the First Cavalry Company of the 12th Division. Zhang met Zhang's delegation from the 13th Mixed Brigade in Guandongdian, eight miles away from Jiumenkou, and immediately said to the regiment commander: "Isn't this the Commander Zhang? Where are you going?"
Commander Zhang immediately said, "In this situation, there is no ammunition, no reinforcements, no reinforcements! What should I do? In the Zhifeng War, I was injured and I was a disabled person! Do I still want to follow Feng Rong to fall into a big fall? Can we stop doing it?"
Zhang Dengju immediately scolded: "If you don't do it normally, please do it! You won't do it today!! When is this time? I'm here to supervise the battle. I will never be polite. If I go back, I won't recognize anyone! I don't recognize anyone with this knife!"
The Zhang regiment had no choice but to counterattack at Jiumenkou again. At that time, the Fengtian army had not yet effectively controlled Jiumenkou. The Zhi army succeeded in the counterattack, but the Fengtian army attacked from the flanks. The troops could not support it and had to continue to retreat. The loss of Jiumenkou and the deserted mountain pass was a foregone conclusion.
The Zhi army has always been unfamiliar with plundering. The military expenditure of the Zhi-Hubei war was only 1.54 million yuan, and it felt like it was too much to bear. The second Zhi-Feng war cost even more. Although there was no military station, the military expenditure of one day was still 300,000 yuan. Therefore, Chen Yunjie was waiting in Beijing for the issuance of the 26th government bond and came to visit the troops with a large amount of rewards. However, under this situation, he could no longer sit still and could only take a car to Qinhuangdao to command.
Fierce wind. Tokyo overseas.
Dozens of battleships and cruisers pointed their muzzles at the shore, and the naval officers and soldiers' eyes turned red. They shouted from time to time: "Avenge the old navy seniors!"
The ministers and officials who were killed and injured in the July 26 Incident were mostly from the navy, so the navy was completely opposed to this. The military command minister Fujino Siba and Navy Minister Tian Weiyinshi joined forces to declare: "Our enemy is not someone else, it is a hateful army. They killed us..."
In this situation, the Navy arbitrarily dispatched dozens of warships to near Tokyo, aimed the muzzle at Tokyo, and at the same time, two special naval marines (equivalent to the brigade level) were drawn near Tokyo, and a situation was ready to open fire at any time. Under the pressure of the Navy, the General Staff Headquarters also believed: "This is a chaotic act, and I am determined to stop the blast!"
He also sent people to the Gendarmerie Command to mobilize the 49th Infantry Regiment, the 57th Regiment, the 2nd Regiment of Heavy Cavalry Regiment and the 14th Division. Four infantry brigades of the 2nd Division entered Tokyo. On July 27, the regimentary troops issued an order to evacuate the occupying organ and return to the camp immediately. The emperor also said in the palace: "The rubber will approach the division to suppress it!"
Under such circumstances, the rebellion troops were divided, some advocated resistance, and some advocated self-determination. On the 29th, the repressive troops transferred to Tokyo had reached more than 20,000 people, and they continued to promote the troops. In the end, the rebellion troops softened and were determined not to resist desperately.
The officers gathered at the residence of the Army Minister and ordered the troops to return to the camp. Soon the military police removed the ranks and sent the symbols to the Army Garrison Penalty Office.
However, the most efficient group of people was the former squadron leader Reshararo. As soon as he arrived at the cell, Reshararo had already asked for pens and papers. He began to write on the paper: "The emergence of this rebellion was really caused by Lieutenant General Abejiro and failed the emperor's holy hope... The rebellion group with Abejiro as the core has its members..."
The "Reiss Grand Report" in Liefeng's history began. As the leader of the rebels, Reisshararo has extremely high character and anyone who asks him to bite it must bite it.
In the 172nd year of the Republic of China, in the 18th year of Emperor Haori, a Social Democratic Party historian wrote the "Biography of Reshararo" based on archives of the Library of Congress and the Army Defense Office, which revealed the wavering of Prime Minister Reshararo after the July 26th Incident. The book was immediately attacked by the Social Democratic Party and expelled the person from the party. Their reasons were so full that in the July 26th Incident, Reshararo was the most important leader. His personality was earth-shaking. How could he make any wavering possible?
