Chapter 327: Radical changes (the second update is sent, continue to ask for a guarantee)
Yanzhou Prefecture. Jiande County.
Jiande is the prefecture of Yanzhou, so Bao Zhongxin set up his headquarters in Jiande County as soon as possible. He is now giving advice on a map: "Company Commander Lin, you can bring a reinforced platoon to Shouchang County. Shouchang County is related to our contact with the main force, so you must not be careless!"
"There is also a Fenshui County that can send a deputy platoon leader to take a squad. It is close to Hangzhou Prefecture. Although it is not a highway, you can't be careless!"
He soon said: "Tonglu County is of great importance and is the most important channel to enter Hangzhou Prefecture. A deputy company commander should be sent to lead a strengthened platoon to garrison!"
But as soon as this was said, Company Commander Lin Mengchu had already asked: "Battery Commander, when the brigade commander left, he instructed everyone to garrison the main force of the battalion on the avenues between Hangzhou and Yanzhou, and at least one company will be strengthened!"
This is indeed Zhu Dun's original words, but Lin Mengchu's doubts were quickly rejected by Bao Zhongxin: "Zhang Yuliang is already a defeated general. He has no ability to fight back from Hangzhou Prefecture. The key now is the next public security battle, especially to control the entire Yanzhou Prefecture."
This is the first time that Bao Zhongxin has undertaken such a major task, controlling the six counties of Yanzhou Prefecture with an infantry battalion, which is indeed a relatively difficult task.
Bao Zhongxin, the infantry battalion, belongs to the Second Infantry Regiment, which is the establishment of the Infantry Regiment. He is an old cadre of the Infantry Regiment and has some experience in public security operations: "We must master as much of the main force as possible, and then connect the lines to encircle and suppress the area in different regions, and strive to build Yanzhou Prefecture into our stable base in the shortest time!"
Now there are 850 battalions including the subordinate personnel, which is equivalent to a large battalion. However, one cent to the six counties in Yanzhou Prefecture, each county is only above 100. Therefore, Bao Zhongxin felt that he had to control as many troops as possible, so he could only sacrifice the troops in Tonglu County: "Even if Zhang Yuliang comes back, a strengthened infantry platoon is enough to hold on for a day and a night. I can immediately lead the main force to provide assistance!"
Lin Mengchu still expressed his objection: "It's too risky to send one more platoon."
There are more than 40 people in a platoon, but Bao Zhongxin still insists on his own view: "The mobile force of a platoon is more valuable than that of Tonglu. Company Commander Lin, just perform your own mission!"
Bao Zhongxin has a long experience as Lin Mengchu, a small leader of the regiment who surrendered in front of the Taizhou Battle. Therefore, since he insisted on seeing him, Lin Mengchu had no choice but to implement it firmly: "Execute the order, but I retain my personal opinion!"
He immediately took one of his infantry platoons to Shouchang and sent a reinforced infantry platoon to Tonglu County, which was adjacent to Fuyang in Hangzhou Prefecture.
If the Qing army sent troops from Hangzhou Prefecture, then the first one to be affected was Tonglu County. When they left, Lin Mengchu was still a little worried: "In addition to the subordinate personnel, your reinforcement platoon is only more than 60 people. Are you confident?"
“Have confidence!”
But Lin Mengchu hesitated for a moment, but made a decision: "I will try my best to transfer personnel from my own company to add another mixed class to you, and I can only do this!"
This was against Bao Zhongxin's order, but it was Lin Mengchu's limit. In his opinion, such a strengthening platoon was enough for Zhang Yuliang, a defeated general.
But he and Bao Zhongxin both forgot one thing. In addition to the defeated Zhang Yuliang's troops, there were also the fifth battalion of Renzi personally led by Hu Xingren and the thousand Chaoyongs of Deng Shaoliang's troops in Hangzhou.
...
"How is Qing Yao on the periphery?" Zhu Dun asked this question with concern: "Have they all retreated into the city?"
"Don't all go back!" The military academy scout answered this question: "There are still many troops on the periphery!"
"Okay, with one effort, annihilate all, and strive to draw out the strength to support Nanxi brigade as soon as possible to annihilate Li Yuandu!"
Zhu Dun had made up his mind, and on the other hand, Huo Qiu also received unexpected information from Bao Meiying.
"What, Li Yuandu just repaired the camp quickly and could not be called solid at all?" Huo Qiu questioned the result immediately: "Deputy Company Commander Bao, if this information is true, I will ask you for great contributions in front of the inspection and Commander Zhou, but is this news true?"
According to Huo Qiu's estimate, Li Yuandu had built fortification camps in Quzhou Prefecture for more than a month. With his 4,000 An Yue Army and 1,500 local bravery, the human resources of the Green Camp soldiers were enough to build a huge camp densely packed with honeycombs.
He remembered the fortifications of the village. In the face of such a defense line, Nanxituan suffered a considerable loss!
Even though Li Yuandu had no time to repair the fortifications before, after the Hongjun launched the Yanqu Battle, he still had enough time to build the fortifications. You should know that the Hongjun delayed nearly a week in Yanzhou Prefecture, but Li Yuandu did not repair the fortifications?
How is this possible? This is the famous Hunan Army who "builds a tough village and fights a stupid battle"! Li Yuandu can learn some skills in building a camp after following Zeng Guofan all day long!
Thinking of this, he asked again: "You make sure that what you can see is true. Don't forget that hundreds of people in your village are in the punishment camp?"
Bao Meiying's face turned frosty. Although she tried to forget this fact, Huo Qiu lifted the wound. However, she still said: "It is precisely because hundreds of people in our Bao Village are in the punishment camp that I rushed back and confirmed this fact. You can ask my cavalry!"
"But!" Bao Meiying seemed proud: "Don't miss such a fighter plane!"
"If you don't take it, you will suffer the consequences!" Yun Tianzong immediately said, "Brig Commander, let me go and see how many skills Li Yuandu has!"
He couldn't believe this fact, because Liu Chang repeatedly told them that the Hunan Army was "building hard villages and fighting stupid wars", but it was hard to believe that this Li Yuandu Li Daotai was built so fast.
Bao Meiying also said: "But you have to seize the opportunity quickly. Time doesn't wait for anyone. Now the eldest husband in Li Yuandu camp is already repairing the camp, and it has been delayed for too long! I'm afraid something will happen!"
But the next moment, Huo Qiu grabbed Bao Meiying's horse whip: "You said that Li Yuandu's camp was in a hurry, but is it a fact?"
"It's true!" Bao Meiying said bluntly: "What I saw with my own eyes, all the twenty-three brothers who traveled with me can prove me!"
"Okay!" Huo Qiu had already made up his mind: "Tian Zong, let's do it! God-given opportunity, this is a God-given opportunity. Let me tell you that after fighting Li Yuandu, we will be the First Brigade of the Hongjun!"
"What?" Yun Tianzong asked, "Don't you confirm it?"
"I believe what Bao Meiying said!" Huo Qiu had made up his mind: "Notify the inspection and inform the entire brigade that our brigade has discovered that although the Anyue army in the enemy Li Yuandu's army has 6,000 troops, which is equivalent to ours, its camps are in a state of chaos and our army is unstable. Our tribe is determined to attack and annihilate them with all their forces."
Yun Tianzong took a breath of air conditioning: "Don't you leave the reserve team? Will you no longer organize a reconnaissance?"
"A mere Li Yuandu is not worth my waste of time like this. Now time is everything!" Huo Qiu turned to Bao Meiying and said, "In this battle, no matter whether it wins or loses, I will come to the inspection site and Commander Zhou to ask for credit for you. As for the hundreds of people in your village who leave the punishment camp, I will also be able to make up for you!"
Bao Meiying felt moved to cry, and she said softly: "Thank you, Brigade Commander Huo, thank you, Commander Yun, everything I said is true!"
"I believe in you!" Huo Qiu shouted loudly: "All brigade, dispatch immediately!"
In less than an hour, the 3,500 officers and soldiers of the entire Second Brigade, whether infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers, baggage, or health sanitary soldiers, were carrying rifles and equipped on the road. At the forefront were cavalry and infantry, with artillery behind the infantry, and the baggage and health sanitary team following closely behind, majestic and murderous intent.
One infantry company after another raised their battle flags and fluttered under the sky. The fire-like battle flags represent their fighting spirit.
...
At the same time, a huge army also drove out from Hangzhou Prefecture. The army was carrying various battle flags such as green flags, yellow flags, and white flags, and the momentum was huge, with a total of about ten miles.
The last Qing army in Zhejiang Province that could be fought was almost included. Hu Xingren's Ren-Fifth Battalion, Zhang Yuliang's remnants, and a thousand Chaoy Yongs who stayed in Hangzhou by Deng Shaoliang, and nearly two thousand local and green camp soldiers who were looted by Hu Xingren were all in this team.
Hu Xingren rode on the horse himself, and he said to his Ren-Jin Wuying: "Deng Shaoliang and Li Yuandu traveled thousands to help Zhejiang. Now they are in danger. My brothers also want to save them. Do you think it should be!"
Although the fifth camp of Ren is the new Hunan Army, the morale is not bad. They said in unison: "OK! OK!"
But Zhang Yuliang urged him to come immediately. His eyes were deep and his body was full of murderous aura: "We are just asking for trouble for the Red Thieves. The vassal officer. No matter what, this time we must fight the Red Thieves to the death!"
"Okay! OK! OK!" Hu Xingren said: "Don't worry, Zhang Shenrong, this time the Red thief was really invading Quzhou Prefecture, Yanzhou has been newly acquired, and the local poverty is not allowed to retain more troops. You will work together to defeat Yanzhou and meet the two brothers Deng and Li!"
After he said this, Zhang Yuliang was much more relieved: "That's good, that's good! No matter how many red thieves there are, I will fight the Red thieves to the death in this battle. My reputation for half my life will be destroyed by the Red thieves and these Lanxi dogs!"
As he was speaking, someone shouted loudly in front of him: "Someone came to report the truth from Yanzhou Prefecture!"
"Okay! The righteous man came just right!" Hu Xingren couldn't help but be happy: "This matter is very good, very good!"
The person who came was a little landlord who had a grudge against the Red Thief. When fighting Jiande, Hongjun's guns and bullets accidentally injured one of his little wives, so he rushed to Hu Xingren and Zhang Yuliang to report the truth: "There are less than a thousand Red Thiefs who stayed in Yanzhou Prefecture, and there are only fifty or sixty of them guarding Tonglu County!"
