Volume Four The Battle of Unification Chapter 606: Wang Maoru dominates the center

The remaining troops of Hu Yunshan, the 40th Brigade of the 14th Division of the National Defense Forces Qilin Legion, captured the commander of the brigade Zhang Zhijie and Fengrui, and solved the crisis of the 120th Regiment in one fell swoop. Next, Hu Yunshan ordered the entire brigade to assemble heavy troops to mainly attack Wang Duqing's 21st Mixed Brigade on the south side. The old spirit ghost and old spirit of Wang Duqing surrounded and annihilated the 120th Regiment. The 21st Mixed Brigade was the least effective and only fired a few guns on the mountain. This time, Wang Duqing heard that Zhang Zhijie's troops were suddenly

However, the gunfire was loud, and accompanied by the unique submachine guns and machine guns of the National Defense Forces, I immediately guessed that the National Defense Force reinforcements must have arrived, and they decided that it was not appropriate to fight hard, so they withdrew their troops without authorization. The four direct troops went to two routes, and the other two routes also ran away. The siege of the 120th Regiment of the National Defense Forces was naturally untied. The 120th Regiment was known as a tiger regiment, and even the leader felt that he was a little ashamed of this title, after all, the other party did not attack with all his might. ",

Zhao Zengfu, the commander of the Qilin Army, who learned that the vanguard troops had already fought fiercely with the Zhili Army, immediately asked the 14th Division of Xu Zhengyi, who was in charge of the enemy Wu Peifu's main third division. According to the feedback from the front, the Zhili Army was not sufficiently armed, the soldiers were not trained in firepower, and the shooting accuracy was extremely poor. Although the morale was high, they fought for some reason and did not know who they were loyal to. Therefore, they rarely tried their best when fighting, unless the commander distributed hundreds of dollars in the ocean of silence. This is also the reason why more than 2,000 people in a 120th Regiment defended a small hill while the opponent's four troops attacked in turn but could not seize it. Those who loved money must also be people who loved life. "" Look

After hearing this, Zhao Zengfu sneered: "It's just a group of machines. Tell your brothers. Don't be afraid. Our army swept across the direct lines like cleaning up rubble."

However, Zhao Zengfu seemed to be too happy. After the 14th Division of the National Defense Force defeated the four direct teams, Wu Peifu had no choice but to send his own direct line, the Third Division of the Beiyang Army. Wang Tingzhen's 16th Division of the Beiyang Army was a tough trick, and the 14th Division could not digest the opponent for a while.

The Seventh Division of the Qilin Army arrived in Jinan, Shandong from Beijing along the Jingpu Road, which immediately shocked Shandong Governor Zhang Shuyuan. Just as Zhang Shuyuan was at a loss, the commander of the 7th Division, Jiang Dengxuan, led his army westward and suddenly entered Neihuang County in Henan. No one along the way expected that the National Defense Force would come from Shandong in such a circle. In order to protect himself, Shandong Governor Zhang Shuyuan fully cooperated with the National Defense Force's attack. He asked for a cart, a cart, a war horse, and even sent the Shandong Army to help inquire about the news.

Wu Peifu made a desperate bet and dispatched almost all troops to attack the National Defense Forces. Zhao Zengfu personally led the Second Division from Beijing to Julu, Pingxiang. Zhao Zengfu used the military strength of two divisions of 50,000 troops and eight mixed brigades of Wu Peifu's two army divisions to fight an offensive and defensive battle with Julu in Pingxiang. Because the war between the two sides was stalemate, even though Wu Peifu wanted to attack Beijing by surprise, he was afraid that all his efforts would be wasted if the main battlefield was accidentally.

The 7th Division's move to enter Henan triggered a disruption in the morale of the Zhi army. Especially after the railway was cut off, Wu Peifu's supplies were cut off. The 7th Division did not go south to attack Kaifeng directly, but turned around to siege Wu Peifu's army.

At this time, the newspapers were also fighting fiercely. The National Defense Force accused the rebellion of the rebel army, and the National Defense Force accused the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the rebellion of the two sides.

At this moment, Wang Maoru announced in Changchun that the fourth legion of the National Defense Forces, the Zhuque Legion, was formed, with Mao Ziping as the commander of the legion. He was under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Division, the 13th Division, and the newly built 19th Division. He also ordered the 19th Division to arrive outside the pass and meet with the legion headquarters. The Zhuque Legion Headquarters is located in Shenyang, with the purpose of consolidating Chenyang and Liaodong to prevent the Japanese from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

After announcing his appointment, Wang Maoru took a plane to Beijing. President Xu Shichang personally came to Nanyuan Airport to greet him. When he saw the airships everywhere, all the senior Beiyang officials, including Xu Shichang, were shocked. What a good guy, how many airships do you have to cover the sky and the sun.

Beijing citizens also saw so many airships again. Last time it covered the sky, but there were still so many this time. The sky was densely packed, and some people kept counting the number of flying listens. After a while, they were dazzled and had to count them again. Before Wang Maoru arrived in Beijing, the director of the Propaganda Department Ma Liang found Wang Maoru and said to him: "Su Shuai, if you come to Beijing, the first thing you do is to create momentum to create a domineering momentum. First, use your momentum to impress the Chinese and foreigners in Beijing." Wang Maoru agreed with Ma Liang's suggestion and happened to return to Shenyang to the Western Regions supply airship troops. Ma Liang gathered all 240 airships, so that they could cover Beijing and make full use of their momentum. Last time, there were only 80 ships, which scared Beijing citizens, and this time, the 240 ships scared everyone.

Everyone in the Japanese embassy stretched out their necks and looked at the airship in the sky outside the window, surprised. Japanese ambassador Yukiyoshi Kohama sighed: "The National Defense Forces are growing up, and the Empire cannot do anything easily. Alas. Missing the opportunity is to raise a tiger as a disaster."

Xu Shichang sighed to Liao Zhipeng on the side, "No wonder he dared to fight against Wu Peifu. With this attitude, everyone is confident." Liao Zhipeng said, "President, only one of their four legions has to go out of the pass, and three are outside the pass. If they sincerely wanted to enter the pass, they would have rushed over long ago."

"Then what do you think they think?" Xu Shichang said.

Liao Zhipeng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Wang Maoru's head is wild and often unexpectedly, who can imagine it?"

Prime Minister Jin Yunpeng said on the side: "It's just for fame or fortune. If Wang Maoru makes a lot of money in recent years, he will be profitable."

Xu Shichang said in surprise: "Does he want to be president?"

Jin Yunpeng said: "It's unknown."

Vice President Meng Enyuan snorted coldly: "Nonsense! If Wang Xiusheng wanted the president, how could he make a speech supporting the president?"

"Term?" Jin Yunpeng asked back.

Meng Enyuan sighed, "I don't understand what his purpose is."

At present, President Xu Shichang, Vice President Meng Enyuan, Premier of the State and Chief of the Army Jin Yunpeng, Minister of Internal Affairs Tian Wenlie, Minister of Finance Li Sihao, Minister of Justice Zhu Shen, Minister of Education Fu Yuefen, Minister of Transport Zeng Yujun, Minister of Agriculture and Commerce Tian Wenlie, Chief of Navy Sa Zhenbing, Acting Chief of Foreign Affairs Chen Zhuan all came to welcome the arrival of Wang Maoru, who was only 34 years old in the north.

Wang Maoru did not get off the plane alone, but took a plane that no one wanted to see, Duan Qirui, and got off together. Wang Maoru and Duan Qirui held their hands tightly, and the reporter's photo was enough to show his attitude. He supported the Anhui clan. After the photos came out, it caused displeasure between Britain and the United States, but Japan cheered because the pro-Japanese Anhui clan was not wiped out and it was just annexed.

"President Xu, Vice President Meng, Premier Jin, everyone, I've been waiting for a long time." Wang Maoru laughed loudly, everyone's expressions were different, some were happy and some were worried, and some were just unrelated to their affairs. They looked at Wang Maoru one by one.

Wang Maoru then attended the welcome banquet. At the banquet, guests gathered, and ministers and consuls from various countries came to chat with Wang Maoru one by one. Wang Maoru also smiled and talked about the customs and customs of each other's countries, talked about the Loch Ness monster with the British ambassador, talked about the mystery of the Lincoln assassination with the US ambassador, talked about the inheritance and development of Han and Tang culture in Japan with the Japanese ambassador, talked about art with the French ambassador, and talked about Italian beauty and football with the Italian ambassador, which was quite a sense of command. Overnight, Wang Maoru became the center of public opinion again.

At this time, news came that Wang Maoru's Qilin Army stopped the Zhilin Army from heading north and surrounded the Zhilin Army. In particular, Wu Peifu's direct line, the Third Division of the Beiyang Army, was attacked with a key force, but this hard bone obviously also caused the National Defense Army to have a toothache. Wu Peifu cut off his arm and ordered the army to jump out of the encirclement and escape back to Henan. The eight mixed brigades of the Zhilin Army ran apart and surrendered three. However, Wu Peifu used a trick to make an intelligence background.

He deceived the National Defense Forces' reconnaissance forces and intelligence agencies, and let the miscellaneous brigade march northward with great fanfare, while he led the main force to secretly travel to Chen Cang back to Henan. The General Staff of Zhao Zengfu's army was deceived, fearing that Wu Peifu would jump over the wall to attack Beijing and immediately withdrew his troops towards Beijing. So much so that Wu Peifu led the main force of the direct army and ambushed a teaching regiment (new recruit regiment) of the 7th Division, which also became the biggest loss for the two sides to fight against the Chinese Defense Forces.

Wu Peifu bypassed the defense zone intercepted by the 7th Division and returned to Henan. After Jiang Dengxuan learned that his teaching regiment had been completely wiped out, he was furious and immediately ordered to turn around and attack the Henan Zhili army. Wu Peifu fought a classic defense battle by the Yellow River and used the muddy Yellow River bed to block the 7th Division of the National Defense Forces with planes and cannons. Jiang Dengxuan's troops fought for three days and three nights, but were stopped north of the Yellow River. In order to prevent excessive losses, Jiang Dengxuan had to stop in the Yellow River. After learning that Zhao Zengfu did not criticize Jiang Dengxuan's private attack, because after intercepting Wu Peifu's feint attack army, he learned that his 50,000 people were fooled by more than 6,000 defeated troops for three days. He was fooled by himself, so how could he say his subordinates?

Zhao Zengfu, who knew his temper, immediately applied for punishment to Wang Maoru, saying that he was not doing well and was willing to accept punishment. Wang Maoru comforted him and said that if he wanted to win a battle, he would taste the defeat first. One failure was nothing, at least he would drive the Zhi army across the south of the Yellow River.
