Chapter 160: Drive the People as a Shield

In fact, as early as after the end of the "White Horse Alliance", the armies quickly launched an action to meet in Guangzhou according to the pre-planned plan. Chen Hongying and his team went from Huaiji to Qingyuan and Huaxian to attack Chen Jiongming's side. The main force of the Shen army and the Yunnan army went east along the left bank of the West River, attacking Zhaoqing, Sanshui and Guangzhou.

On December 30, 1922, the Beiyang government appointed Chen Hongying as a lieutenant general of the army and became the most powerful warlord armed force in the Gui army. If there is nothing wrong with this, it is bullshit. The action alone already implies his ambiguous relationship with the northern regime. However, Sun Yixian was not qualified to pick on this at that time. His first goal was always to support Chen Jiongming.

On January 15, 1923, Chen Jiongming was jointly expelled from Guangzhou by the Yunnan-Guangxi Army and retreated to Huizhou. On the 16th, the Yunnan-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi-Guangxi

On the 23rd of that month, Sun Yixian designated the defense areas of Guangdong's military forces, and they were not allowed to move without permission unless they were ordered. Chen Hongying's troops moved from Beijiang to Zhaoqing. Before this, Chen Hongying was also rebellious and obeyed the tune but not the Xuan. However, he still showed an obedient attitude towards Sun Yixian to a certain extent.

Based on his excellent daily performance, Sun Yixian was also very satisfied. In order to better appease the Gui army of Shen's troops, Sun Yixian appointed Chen Hongying as the commander-in-chief of the Gui army, ordered Chen Hongying to leave Guangzhou and move to defense, and issued the first order to the commander-in-chief of the Gui army. This was actually to drive the other party away from the plump cake in Guangzhou.

How can I bear this?

Chen Hongying was disobediently and moved to Xinjie from Guangzhou to set up a headquarters camp of the Gui Army. He colluded with Beiyang warlord Wu Peifu, Cao Kun, Wu Peifu and the six governors of the Zhili provinces demanded that the Beijing government appoint Chen Hongying to supervise Guangdong. He also secretly purchased a large number of military supplies from Tianyu Group as the capital for the fight.

On March 20, the Beiyang government appointed Chen Hongying to supervise the aftermath of the military affairs in Guangdong. Yang Ximin was the military affairs assistant. On the 25th, Chen Hongying and Yang Ximin resigned from Beijing. This was actually a plan to play a double act with Wu Peifu, to make the Grand Marshal's Mansion look good. Sun Yixian's intention to fight the Northern Expedition was not dead, and Wu Peifu would be in peace for a day.

In order to cover up his true purpose, Chen Hongying announced three days later that he would comply with the order of Marshal Sun and move his troops to defend Xijiang. On April 3, Chen Hongying's army returned to Guanyin Mountain and announced on the 5th that he would accept the appointment of the Beiyang government. As expected, the fox's tail was finally revealed, and at this time, the ** party also came to his senses, and both sides were ready to fight and were ready to fight.

On April 10, Chen Hongying was helped by Wu Peifu. His troops gathered in Shaoguan, Xinjie, northern Guangdong, and secretly attacked Guangzhou. On the 15th, he officially broke with Sun Yixian in the position of Guangdong military supervisor at Xinjie. Li Yibiao and others attacked Guangzhou in separate routes. On the 16th, Sun Dapao was so angry that he ordered a counterattack. He personally went to the agricultural and forestry test site to supervise the battle with Yang Ximin, and then transferred Liu Zhenhuan's troops to rescue Guangzhou. The battle was fierce.

Standing in the temporary military camp tent in the forest farm, Sun Yixian's face was clean, but the coldness in his eyes still made Yang Ximin, who was standing beside him, feel chills.

As Yang Ximin, who took Wu Peifu's benefits with Shen Hongying, can't explain this matter clearly. Sun Yixian is not talking about their character. If he has advantages these days, he will not take advantage of it. It's Wang Jiudan. It's nothing more than being able to die. Chen Hongying actually turned against it, which made a big deal.

Look, even the innocent Yang Ximin was arrested and punished by Kui. Everyone has ambitions, but Yang Ximin himself knows how strong he is, and he does not have the capital of Chen Hongying. After all, as a senior warlord leader, it is also true that Chen Hongying is strong.

Only those with strength have the qualifications to show their ambitions.

"The leader, brothers can't hold on." Liu Zhenhuan's words were obviously crying, and he couldn't help crying. Chen Hongying's strength was unexpectedly powerful, causing great damage to the Gui army under Liu Zhenhuan's troops.

The main reason is that suddenly there were many light machine guns and artillery, and even some strange submachine guns. Under the advantage of the terrain, they used fortifications to block the anti-threat army. They launched a strong attack for several days, but they could not shake the sinking part. Instead, they were full of corpses in their own army and could not make any progress.

Among them, Liu Zhenhuan's troops attacked the most fiercely and suffered the most heavy casualties. Yang Ximin's subordinates suffered minor losses because they were not heavily used. Sun Yixian was afraid of turning against him in front of the formation and damaging morale. Therefore, he did not dare to use it, and even had to divide his troops to monitor him.

"The thief is so powerful? How is this possible?" Liu Zhenhuan's report back made Sun Yixian very angry. Originally, the ** Party was aware of the warlords of all the major factions under his jurisdiction, and it was impossible for Chen Hongying's troops to have such powerful equipment at all.

Sun Dang, who had acquaintance with the Soviet Union, did not have such an arms match. There were even soldiers holding machetes and spears in their hands and charged with the team. The people in front died, and the people in the back picked up guns and continued to rush.

In fact, the so-called heavy casualties in Liu Zhenhuan's words, and the war losses generally do not exceed 10%. In this era, if the army has more than 30% of the war losses, it is the iron army, that is the main force, that is the regular army, but the Northern Expedition Army, which recruits a large number of bandits and gangs, obviously does not have such a fighting will.

It is not realistic to use military and legal teams, because after the war, it is very likely that they will face mutiny, and even whistle on the spot.

"The leader, if this continues, the morale of the army will be unstable." Liu Zhenhuan did not lie on purpose, but this is an indisputable fact. Now, the casualties of the lowly troops are close to 10%, but there is no result in any battle, which is a huge blow to morale.

Originally, in order to increase morale, he was fighting to punish rebellion, and even promised to wash the city for three days after winning. All the spoils obtained were obtained by the soldiers, which aroused a few morale.

If you want to use the slogan of ** to inspire these soldiers who don’t know a lot, you can’t even think about it. Nowadays, there is no benefit to join the army, and that is the Martian.

"At this time of crisis, the people of the whole city need to work together to defend our party. Pass on our orders and recruit the troops to be pioneers. It is their honor to sacrifice their lives for the great cause of the country."

Sun Yixian's eyes were slightly closed, and a look of scars flowed in his eyes. It would be easy to drive the people as a shield to be a pioneer.

"We will find it difficult to explain to the people regardless of the victory or defeat of the Grand Marshal." Sun Yixian's incredible strategy made Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan stunned, and Yang Ximin strongly opposed it.

If you do this, how can you gain a foothold here in the future? Looking around the surrounding provinces, there is no place richer than Guangdong. Among them, Guangzhou is the best in Guangdong Province. It is simply a desperate situation to cut off the people here so much.

"Hmph, everyone should have the belief of serving the country bravely and not afraid of sacrifice. How can we enjoy wealth and honor in the rear, and let the patriots die in the front, and I have decided to die. I don't have to persuade you anymore."

Sun Yixian was arbitrary and waved his hand and forbidden the persuasion of Yang Liu and others. Under the military order, Liu Zhenhuan and Yang Ximin had to force the men to be strong as cannon fodder for the front drive.

Liu Zhenhuan is from Guizhou Province, but Yang Ximin is from Yunnan. He was born in Binchuan, Yunnan in 1886, with the name Shaoji. He also has a rich personal resume. He studied at the Yunnan Martial Arts Hall in his early years and was a regular military academy. He participated in the Chongqing Jiu Uprising in Yunnan in 1911, and the following year he entered the Jiangxi Martial Arts Hall to study. After graduation, he participated in the Second Battle of **Hukou to fight against Yuan and the Yunnan National Protection War.

With his personal talent, he served as a staff officer, company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander, etc., in 1920, he returned to Yunnan with Gu Pinzhen and participated in the battle to expel Tang Jiyao. Two years later, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Third Brigade of the Yunnan Army, and was later promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Yunnan Army. In September of the previous year, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Central Committee of the Yunnan Army. At the meeting on the strategic and cooperation conditions for the White Horse Conference of Dahuangjiang, Guangxi, he was officially elected as the commander-in-chief of the Western Road to fight against the enemy.

The more than 30,000 people under him are the most numerous teams in the Northern Expedition Army system. But in fact, there are not many troops that can really fight here, only 6,000, which is the real main elite. What does it mean to be able to fight? It means that you have hot weapons in your hands and have received certain military training.

As for the cannon fodder troops holding long swords and red tassel guns, even more than twice as much is a scum. Don’t think that the main killing on the battlefield is by hand-to-hand combat, but you really think that hand-to-hand combat is the first. There is no machine gun as a deterrent, no artillery fire and gun bullets to suppress the enemy, destroy their fighting will, and hand-to-hand combat is seeking death.

In real hand-to-hand combat, most of the battle is coming to an end and the enemy is becoming more and more harvested. The main force of the war is always thermal weapons such as rifles and cannons. Otherwise, everyone will be equipped with big swords and spears, so why do you still need muskets and cannons?

Yang Ximin is talented and has a fairly qualified morality. It’s not that he loves soldiers as much as his son and is strict in governing the army, but that he basically does not do too much. Regarding the evaluation of members of the Northern Expedition Army, good people are not people who do good things, but people who do not do bad things. In such a chaotic environment, it is rare not to do bad things.

"Shaoji, how did you do this? Are you not afraid of being stabbed by someone?" After leaving the tent, Liu Zhenhuan complained to Yang Ximin. It was really hard for Liu Zhenhuan, who had studied Confucianism since childhood, to accept this inhumane order.

Faced with such a question, Yang Ximin didn't know. Looking at Liu Zhenhuan who was angry with a scholar, he sighed: "What else can it do? If we don't do it, there will definitely be people to do it. Isn't it clear what those party members are? Xianchen, I am becoming more and more discouraged about this so-called **."

The words were full of bleakness. They were originally determined to serve the country and the people, but now they have done this plan of extinction, which is really uneasy. However, the leader's strict orders have to obey. Compared with the lives of others, their own lives are somewhat valuable. However, the cracks in the heart remain.

Liu Zhenhuan's name is majestic and domineering, but he looks gentle. He wears a pair of round-frame copper-edged glasses, has a thin figure and a very literary temperament. On the contrary, Yang Ximin, whose name is elegant, has a bold and brave appearance, has two big beards, highlighting the style of his military officer...
