Chapter 165 Defeat Shen Hongying
In the sky, spring thunder rolls, dark clouds cover the sun, and the dim colors add a little sadness to the earth.
The western suburbs of Guangzhou have turned into a battlefield, with corpses everywhere and blood flowing all over the field.
The atmosphere was a little low, and it had been ten days since Chen Hongying raised the rebellious flag. However, the anti-threat army still failed to repel the opponent's vanguard. In a forest farm, the battle situation was stalemate.
The wet and dark weather seriously affected the morale of both sides of the enemy and us, and the soldiers were exhausted. However, without military orders, no one could retreat without authorization. They could only hold them in the trenches and fight hard.
Tattatatatatatatatata
The light machine gun fire is quite rhythmic and regular, showing that this person is experienced and will not squander bullets because of nervousness. Looking at his military uniform, he is a Guangxi sergeant under Chen Hongying's tent.
"Damn it, come up again, Sanniu, hurry up and give me the magazine." His dark and earth-shattered face was also very nervous at this time. This man was Li Shaoyi, a platoon leader in the Shen army, leading dozens of people below to support and guard the current position.
What made him so angry was not the "enemy" rushing up in front of him, but the supervisory team behind him. Five days ago, Sun Yixian issued a military order in the name of the Grand Marshal's Mansion. This method of driving the people as a shield did achieve some results.
Although Chen Hongying's troops had a number of reliable and fierce arms, especially the numerous Czech standard light machine guns, they caused great damage to the anti-thieves.
But now the one who came from the scene was Ping Ming, who was holding a simple weapon in his hand. Even ten people might not have a rifle, and most of them were holding wooden sticks and feces. These "soldiers" who were driven forward by the supervision team with heavy machine guns consumed a large extent the military supplies of Chen Hongying's troops.
The standard bullets used in machine guns were poured out like running water, and the barrel was also broken a lot, but the number of people driven in has not decreased.
Zhou Liren, holding a wooden stick more than one meter long, followed closely behind the team. He was very lucky that he had not yet "beaten bravely" until now, and only had a few outer skins scratched by bullets.
In recent days, countless people have been driven to die here, and they have even begun to see women and half-aged children being caught in. Crying is useless. Under the cold gun of Maxim's water-cooled heavy machine gun, only by rushing forward desperately can we have a way out.
He had seen several people who were shot into sieves by bullets because of retreating, and had no choice at all. Unless he could hold on until the evening and wait for the order of the army to withdraw, he would not be able to take a step back.
Lying behind a haystack, Zhou Liren used the slightly raised mound as a cover to avoid the bullets shot. In the past few days, under the threat of death, he has been very skilled in this set of actions.
He could not help but be unskilled. This is the difference between life and death. In the Pioneer Camp, soldiers were replaced like flowing water, and more than half of the people were eliminated every day. Now Zhou Liren has become numb and has seen too much misery and death. The depths of his heart have long been silent.
The interlaced shooting of light machine guns made the short road in front of him, which was less than 200 meters, become the realm of death. The sound of the war trumpet sounded again, and Zhou Liren forgot to look around. Only 70% of the people who were still alive ten minutes ago. Under the high mental pressure and the ruthless pressure of the ** Party, some people were even more dull or crazy.
A middle-aged woman who had just lost her son was crying with a body in her arms. The child with red blood on her chest was only fourteen or fifteen years old. Depending on the situation, it should be her child. A white-haired man sent a black-haired man. Such a misery is the prelude to the troubled times.
Fortunately, her pain did not last long, and a bullet shattered his head mercilessly. The skull began to shatter from the back of the head, leaving a horrifying hole in the door. Another life died, and Zhou Liren had no time to sympathize with others.
In such a situation, death may not be a relief.
The living people still have to face unavoidable pain. Because of the ambition and cruelty of the people in power, countless people struggled and cried in the tragedy. This is the current Guangzhou. Sun Yixian issued an undeniable will in the name of the Grand Marshal's Mansion, and indeed wanted the citizens of Guangzhou to pave the way for his great cause.
Poor in Guangzhou, known as the capital of the Three People and Five Powers Protective Government, the citizens were driven to block the cannons every day, and most of them were gone. Along the way, I always saw the tragedy of "putting on my clothes and pausing my feet to stop the way and crying, and the crying sounds soaring thousands of clouds". The provisions on the law on the freedom of the people are ultimately just an empty slogan.
The barrel of the light machine gun overheated due to continuous shooting, and because of the frequent use of the light machine gun recently, the spare barrel that can be replaced has been exhausted. Li Shaoyi couldn't help but start to frown. He could not continue to use the barrel that had been overheated at the risk of blowing up the chamber.
Even the spare barrels that had been repeatedly used have no longer been used. After looking at the follower next to him helplessly, Li Shao looked at the enemy troops rushing over with a trumpet, gritted his teeth and gave an order: "Brothers, as long as we repel this charge, we will withdraw."
As a platoon leader, he could not ignore his life and death and stay here. Originally, the order from the superiors was to attack Guangzhou, but when he met the main force of the anti-thief army led by Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan, he was the one who bit the bullet and fought a defensive battle, but Shen's Guijun himself was the one who was himself.
"yes"
All the soldiers below responded loudly. Who wouldn't want to stay here? Shen's Gui army, who rushed here, lacked powerful heavy weapons, and there was especially lack of bullets. The reserves for the past ten days of fierce fighting had already been consumed. Even if Shen Hongying came in person, he could not ask his subordinates to die.
Moreover, the troops that took on the vanguard of the enemy's superior forces were already exhausted. These were the foundation of Shen Hongying, and he had to consider his future situation.
On the other hand, Zhou Liren also heard the machine gun sounds on the opposite side and the enemy retreated in panic. Driven by the supervising team, everyone had to pick up the weapons in their hands and rushed forward desperately. Mixed in the crowd, Zhou Liren continued to rush forward with a picked rifle he picked up.
Victory is in sight, and finally escaped the ecstasy of ascension to heaven, which has moistened Zhou Liren's eyes. His mind is now full of anxiety and wants to return home to visit his beautiful wife and three children.
A flying bullet ended all Zhou Liren's thoughts. The last one in his life recalled the voice, appearance and smile of his wife Wang. He had a sad smile on his lips, his eyes were open, and he left quietly. In the chaotic world, life was only in the evening.
Chen Hongying was an old army who had been in the army for many years. He used a beautiful counterattack to stop the robbers from chasing. Most of the "pioneer camps" that Sun Yixian forced the citizens to fill were undoubtedly spared. The ones who could truly survive to the end were less than one-tenth of the total, and each was injured.
The anti-threat army took advantage of the advantage of the territory and eventually consumed Chen Hongying's strength, and the Gui army to which his troops were seriously injured. The consumption of various weapons and ammunition was also amazing.
On the contrary, the ** party members gained a lot of benefits by taking advantage of this extortion and taking advantage of the robbery. Moreover, a large number of citizens acted as cannon fodder, and their team was not seriously damaged, and their morale was not hit. Sun Yixian was very proud of this result, but he didn't know that because of this crazy behavior, it had greatly dissatisfied the conscientious generals like Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan.
One wave has not yet settled, and one wave has been used to suppress it. Under the dense battle clouds, the internal flow of the anti-thieves army is also surging.
On April 19, Chen Hongying's army was defeated by 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-
The anti-aggressive army asked the mine team to dig tunnels in the northeast corner of the city, in the middle of Qilin Street, burying two 250 kilograms of mines. At dawn, the anti-aggressive army generated power from the navy camp to detonate the mines, destroyed the city wall for more than three meters, and defeated the Shen Gui army in one fell swoop.
On the 23rd, Zhang occupied Zhaoqing again. On the 24th, Wu Peifu sent the commander of the 9th Mixed Brigade Deng Ruzhuo to Guangdong to assist Chen Hongying. The Shen army and Yunnan and Gui army fought fiercely in Yinzhanao, Pajiangkou, and Yingde.
On April 26, Cao Kun shook Hongying, Lin Hu and Hong Zhaolin jointly attacked Guangzhou. On the 30th, the Yunnan-Guangdong-Guangdong-Ying army defeated Chen Hongying's army in Juntian and Yinzhanao, and occupied Yuantan. On May 2, the Guangdong-Guangdong-Guangdong-Ying army captured Pajiang, and Chen Hongying was defeated and fled to Shaoguan on the 8th. On the 10th, the Yunnan-Guangdong-Guangdong-Ying army occupied Shaoguan. Chen Hongying retreated and started to rise, Nanxiong, and on the 13th, Liu Zhenhuan recaptured Boluo.
At this point, Chen Hongying was unable to win the sky and failed to take over Guangzhou in one go. He was counterattacked by the Northern Expedition Army, which he had reacted. All fronts collapsed completely, and his morale was discharged for thousands of miles. It was worth retreating to Guizhou Province to seek funerals.
On May 22, Marshal Sun personally ordered the arrest of Chen Hongying, Li Yibiao and Shen Rongguang, and revoked their positions. Not long after, Li Yibiao, who had no way out, led his troops to Dongjiang to join Chen Jiongming, while Chen Hongying was discouraged and led his troops back to Guilin.
This massive rebellion that caused a lot of controversy finally came to an end. I don’t know how many times this has been betrayed. Sun Yixian’s original wish to accumulate strength to carry out the Northern Expedition was disappointed. Don’t worry, because of this, he gradually began to sort out his other warlord leaders.
For example, Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan were obviously on the top of the blacklist. They were relatively powerful non-direct troops in the military and political system of the Grand Marshal's Office. With their friendship with Sun Yixian, how could they compare to Xu Chongzhi? Being suspicious and suspicious is inevitable.
Especially Yang Ximin, he accepted Wu Peifu's benefits with Shen Hongying, and this kind of thing was really unpredictable. For Sun Yixian, who is a superior, does it require evidence to punish a subordinate? Just suspicion is enough to convict.
Chen Hongying's rebellion was less than two months old, and it was quelled by various armies in a way that destroyed the enemy. In fact, it was not that Chen Hongying had no vision, but that Sun Yixian was using the trick of driving the people as a shield. I would not mention moral matters. This move did indeed drag down Chen Hongying's footsteps when Sun Jun was at a disadvantage.
With the overall strength of the Northern Expedition Army, if it cannot win quickly, it will definitely be a way to fail.
The winners are plundering everywhere, like locusts passing through the border. Although the tragedy of the city massacre did not occur, it did not improve much. The food was collected, the previous fines and softness were also robbed by the soldiers, and even women were humiliated. This sect-sect affairs are the practice of this era.
In the chaotic times, it is normal for the victor to plunder the people. No one can be exceptional yet. Perhaps it will be unknown in the future, but it is certain that there is no one now...
