Chapter 22 Childish Scheme
Since creating the radiation engineers, Zhang Fan has not witnessed their combat effectiveness. After the Kirov airship transported them, he immediately sent these battlefield meat grinders to the defense line.
Because considering the horror of their attack, Zhang Fan thought for a long time but still did not let them show their combat power in front of him. After all, nuclear radiation is not a joke.
In order to keep it secret, he also specially built a temporary training camp about five miles outside Songjiang Prefecture.
It is said to be a training camp, but in fact it is just a slight improvement of the surrounding flat land to allow Kirov airships and armed helicopters to serve as temporary docking points.
This is why Zhang Fan was so excited when he saw Wei Jingguo leading his soldiers.
According to Davari's description, even the heavily armed American soldiers and heavily armored soldiers were unable to fight back against the radiation engineers on the battlefield, so Zhang Fan was very curious when the ancient soldiers in this world encountered radiation.
What kind of sparks will be produced when engineers and soldiers collide?
I'm really excited when I think about it...
Zhang Fan's mood at this time was extremely complicated. He wanted to see the radiation engineers killing everyone on the battlefield, but he also didn't want to see the tragic scenes of people dying from radiation, for fear of causing psychological effects.
But sympathy is fleeting. After all, war itself is an extremely cruel thing.
Unknowingly, it has been a week since I came to this world. After completing the mission of Songjiang Mansion, I will truly have a foothold.
Compared with the excitement of completing the task, other emotions can be put aside first.
...
On the other side, after thinking for a long time, Wei Jingguo finally decided to go forward and see what was going on.
Although the situation in Songjiang Prefecture is currently unclear, Wei Jingguo, as the Jiangnan Admiral, has no reason to retreat without fighting. If he is caught and involved in the matter, then his position as the Jiangnan Admiral may be over.
After all, Nian Gengyao's precedent was still fresh in his mind, and he, Wei Jingguo, did not want to follow in his footsteps.
He is a warrior himself, and in terms of the twists and turns in the officialdom, he is not inferior to those princes and ministers by a little or two.
Once he is involved, with the emperor's current temper, the end will definitely not be good even if he does not die, and the most terrifying thing is not this. Although Wei Jingguo does not understand politics, he understands that the background of the rebels this time is probably not good.
Simple.
"Sir, I think we should wait a little longer..."
At this time, the accompanying deputy also gave his own suggestions.
"No need, tell the whole army to advance at full speed, wait until they are thirty miles away to set up camp, and then send scouts over to investigate the situation!"
Wei Jingguo also gave some thought to his deputy's suggestion, but since the situation was unclear now, it would definitely not be an option if he wasted so much time. It was better to rush on first and wait until he was about thirty miles away to set up camp.
By doing this, you can test the background of this group of rebels and see how they will react when they learn about the arrival of the imperial army. Secondly, you can also give yourself sufficient preparation time to explore the background of this group of rebels.
.
When he learned about the fall of Songjiang Prefecture, Wei Jingguo began to inquire about the information about this group of rebels. However, the strange thing was that no matter how he searched, he could not find out the specific information of the other party, and he did not even know who the leader of the other party was.
Not sure.
The information he has found so far all comes from Songjiang Mansion. According to people who ran out of the city at that time, the number of rebels who attacked the city was more than 500, and all of them had firearms in their hands.
This kind of configuration, let alone rebels, is extremely rare even in the imperial court. Currently, the only army known to have a firearm is the Shenji Battalion directly under the emperor.
This is also the point that Wei Jingguo cannot figure out the most.
If it were just a group of several hundred rebels, Wei Jingguo would definitely not care too much, but if firearms were added, it would be completely different.
The Qing Dynasty has always had very strict control over firearms. Every firearm has a special record from birth to scrap. It is impossible for ordinary people to obtain such large quantities of firearms and equipment.
From this point of view, the person behind this group of rebels may not be simple, and it is even more likely that it is done by a big shot in the court. www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
When Wei Jingguo thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, which was why he insisted on fighting this battle.
Because if he retreats now, once the emperor discovers it, Wei Jingguo will probably be labeled as a traitor immediately, and at the end of the day, his family will be confiscated and his family will be exterminated.
Rather than having to die together with his wife, children, and children, it would be better to sacrifice himself on the battlefield, so that at least his family can still have a debt of gratitude after his death.
He does not ask for future generations to be granted official positions or become prime ministers, but at least he cannot be dragged down by himself.
After thinking about all this, Wei Jingguo immediately rode his horse and led the army towards Songjiang Mansion in a mighty manner.
After about half an hour, the army finally arrived at the expected encampment location. Wei Jingguo immediately ordered the camp to be encamped on the spot, and then sent scouts to investigate the situation around Songjiang Mansion.
What Wei Jingguo didn't know at this time was that every move he made was revealed in Zhang Fan's eyes.
"Quite cautious."
Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the other party's action of setting up camp. Originally, he thought that the other party would send scouts to investigate the situation first, but he didn't expect that the other party actually chose to set up camp first.
"Commander, I suggest that you send radiation engineers to attack enemy camps at night. The weapons in the hands of radiation engineers cause range damage, and the damage will not decrease as the number of enemies increases. In this case, the enemy
Fang Anying actually created favorable conditions for us."
At this time, Davari reminded again.
"Let's take a look first. Send the order and open the west city gate. I want to see if this guy will be moved when he knows that we only have a hundred defenders."
Zhang Fan thought for a while and decided to put this idea aside for now. After all, it was still early and there were still several hours until night. If the opponent did not attack at night, it would not be too late to give the order.
Now what he wants to do is to invite you to enter the urn. He wants to see if the other party will impulsively lead his troops and rush over when he knows that he only has a hundred people guarding the city gate and the city gate is still wide open.
However, Zhang Fan's idea was destined to fail.
As the admiral of Jiangnan, Wei Jingguo naturally had a wealth of military experience. Faced with Zhang Fan's obviously provocative behavior, he ignored it at all.
