Chapter 59 The Battle of Crossing the River
Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/
But later he saw the carriage and the carriage towed the Mather rifle and ammunition, as well as the Gatlings, turning off the guns, and Liu Yongfu was stunned.
He picked up Mauser, Gatlin looked at it again and again. Even after fighting with the French for such years, no such good guns were seized, let alone Gatlin turned off the gun. Later, there were small cannons dragging one by one behind the carriage, and he was completely stunned. Could it be that this naive thing had changed?
In recent years, the Black Flag Army suffered a lot of losses and died because of backward weapons. With these guns and cannons, they can finally avenge the dead brothers. Liu Yongfu suddenly felt like he died for his confidant.
However, most of the soldiers of the Black Flag Army were composed of the people. They had no formal training and were very poor in military technology. The ammunition consumption was often the highest, but the damage to the French army was not as great as that of Liu Mingchuan's troops.
At Liu Yongfu's own request, the court sent trained officers to help the training of the Black Flag Army. When the newly recruited soldiers from the country were supplemented with Liu Mingchuan's troops and the Black Flag Army, Liu Yongfu was also asked to take the lead in selecting them.
So at this time, Liu Yongfu was already devoted to the court or the little emperor.
In the full-scale counterattack after the Dongling Victory, Lu Yiwei's troops' roundabout encirclement made Liu Yongfu feel a little surprised. Later, I heard that it was all caused by the young emperor's daily training and running, and he even admired the emperor to a certain level.
In addition, when the Black Flag Army attacked head-on with Liu Mingchuan's troops, they also saw the very different combat power of the Qing army. Although its Black Flag Army is famous, it is really nothing if it is really put in this kind of regular operation of infantry and artillery coordination. When they attack, retreat, and when they are artillery fire support, they are all rules and regulations. Even the Black Flag Army relies on the courage to be proud of, they are not inferior at all. After a few battles, the Black Flag Army has the least results.
If we first cooperated with the Qing army to fight against the enemy and had some concerns about the Qing army, then now we are like a student and are pestering Liu Mingchuan. Lu Yiwei asked this and that, not to mention the visit and training. He also always borrowed the political commissar of the Qing army to teach his Black Flag Army.
Now the three troops are preparing for the battle of crossing the river on the north bank of the Red River. In order to meet this coordinated operation, the three main leaders are set at Liu Mingchuan's command center. In order not to let people gossip, Liu Yongfu set off with his entourage before dawn in the morning and finally arrived before noon.
After checking Liu Yongfu's waist card, the soldiers at the camp immediately saluted with guns. The eyes were full of respect. The Black Flag Army was so powerful that it had been in Vietnam for decades. The political commissars were telling his stories every day these days. Unexpectedly, they saw the real person today and could brag when they went back!
Of course, Liu Yongfu didn't know what the soldiers at the camp were thinking. He had been attracted by the training on the field. He was divided into groups and subjects to practice. It was really prohibited to follow orders, and there were advances and retreats. Liu Yongfu was simply stunned.
What is multi-army cooperation, what is group charge after artillery fire cover, what is division and siege and annihilation one by one? He has experienced this advanced training mode today.
After watching a group of people over there running with loads, they formed a circle and listened to the political commissar telling stories. They were curious and walked over. The scholar-like person in the crowd was talking about the British and French coalition forces burning the Old Summer Palace. The scholar was very eloquent and made the soldiers around him passionately speak. Later, even Liu Yongfu couldn't help but be immersed.
The Zero-level master http://www.77nt/19181/ is in it.
"Damn it, the French devils are so bullying. This time they must let them spit out all the things that robbed our Qing Dynasty."
"Yes, our Qing Dynasty was not twenty years ago. This time, the Japanese were called to come and go."
The officer who looked like a scholar set out to signal everyone to calm down.
"The Japanese must fight, and they must fight hard. The emperor has already given up Ming Zhao, and will not cut an inch of land or pay a ounce of silver. This time we will fight the French to the end, either he or I will die. But everyone should not be reckless when fighting, and they must listen to the superiors. We will not do unnecessary sacrifices."
"Well, Political Commissar Sun is right. Wang Huan, a brother in our class, just didn't listen to the squad leader and told him to lie down or not and was killed by a bomb. Several of us were lying down and it was fine."
Everyone nodded after hearing this. At this time, a strong man said to Political Commissar Sun: "Political Commissar, my mother has written to me. I told me to do it well. Her illness has been cured. Last time, thanks to your sister-in-law, you asked her to take her to see a doctor, otherwise my mother would have really told me that my father had gone early, and my mother brought me up. I can't speak, and I remember your kindness in my heart. Just one sentence, as long as you use my place in the future, the political commissar, you can say something, and I will do it even if you die."
At this time, Liu Yongfu truly felt what it means to love soldiers like his sons and help soldiers solve their family difficulties. Only soldiers can exert 100% energy without any scruples on the battlefield. The system of this Qing army is really perfect. At this time, he hoped that his Black Flag Army was also part of the Qing army.
"Yongfu, you made it easy for me to find. I heard that I have been here a long time ago, why didn't I come to the command center?" Liu Mingchuan's loud voice suddenly rang behind his back.
Liu Yongfu turned around and said with a smile: "I just passed by here and watched the training. I was very moved..."
Liu Mingchuan continued: "I knew you were here, and if you come here, I will definitely come to observe and train. By the way, the emperor assigned you the training officers. Why are you still coming to steal the division?"
"My Black Flag Army has never been organized by the Qing army. Although the weapons and equipment are the same as you. But look, the court has not assigned a political commissar to our army. Although it has assigned training officers, there are no training equipment like you." Liu Yongfu said with a dark face.
"Don't say it's like the one raised by Xiao Niang, wait until the French are defeated. I will report to the emperor to ask for credit for your Black Flag Army and be assigned to our unit. Haha." Liu Mingchuan teased.
Liu Yongfu said seriously: "I am willing to be a battalion commander, but I am afraid that the court will think that my Black Flag Army is a rebel. I will not accept us."
"Stop thinking, Xiao Lu has been waiting for a long time. Go in first, the court has sent a telegram. Another 50,000 reinforcements are here. General Dong Liang's troops are already on the way. It is estimated that we will arrive in Guangxi tomorrow. The court wants us to cross the river and seize Nanjun after the navy captures the Honghe Army Port, and siege the French army in Nanxincheng."
"You will arrive tomorrow? Isn't General Dong the guards of Zhili?" Liu Yongfu was surprised with the troops' mobility.
"The train from Tianjin to Guangdong has already been on, and it only takes one day and one night for the troops to go from Shandong to Guangdong. I left yesterday and arrived in Guangdong today. I will not be able to go to Guangxi tomorrow. I guess I can have a drink with General Dong here tomorrow night." Liu Mingchuan explained.
“…”
Without waiting for Liu Yongfu to speak, Liu Mingchuan pulled him into the command center.
Lu Yiwei was one of the first young generals to study in Germany. He acted cautiously and thoughtfully. At this time, he was drawing the marching routes and several strategic areas that the troops should capture on the map.
Seeing the two generals coming in, he quickly stopped what was going on and went up to meet him: "I have heard that General Liu, the head coach of the Black Flag Army, was invincible. Today, he saw it very different. Lu Yiwei is polite."
"Don't be so literary. Yongfu, Xiao Lu is our top student at Lu University. After graduation, he went to study in the West. His military theory is one set of things, and his homework on paper is the first person in the Qing Dynasty." Liu Mingchuan introduced.
"It turned out to be General Lu Yiwei. When he counterattacked last time, he saw that his troops had a very exquisite roundabout tactic and the troops were very fast. His combat power was extraordinary. Yongfu admired him very much." Liu Yongfu said excitedly.
When Lu Yiwei heard this, he was about to be polite and heard Liu Mingchuan shouting next to him: "Are you two disgusting? Xiao Lu, hurry up and use the map for us to analyze and analyze, how should we fight this battle of crossing the river?"
Lu Yiwei nodded, took out a map full of direct and curved lines from behind and said, "After the navy controls the military port, the gunboats will carry out a devastating blow to the river defense fortifications on the south bank on the Red River." He said, pointing to a straight line, he continued to preach: "Our unit crosses the river along the western part of the Red River from northwest to southwest, and Brother Liu's unit deviates from northeast to southeast. General Dong goes straight to Nanjun City, and the Black Flag Army is in the middle to support the various units. The emperor's telegram ordered to siege the French army, not to wipe out them all. I missed the holy intention. The emperor's intention should be to use the tens of thousands of siege troops in Vietnam in the future to make French compensation to redeem people."
After saying that, the other two stared at the map with their eyes glowing. If this could be true, the whole of Vietnam would be in control.
"Xiao Lu, is this encirclement too big? Will the French army obediently trap us in Nanxin City? It is close to the sea. My Qing Dynasty now holds the power to control the sea. If we really want us to surround them there, we don't have to move. The navy's warships put two guns on them, and they will be completely finished. With the French army's tens of thousands of people fighting to break through at a certain point, are we sure to tie the bag tightly?" Liu Mingchuan asked with concern.
"It is difficult to do with our existing troops, so the emperor transferred another general Dong and his troops to come. As long as Nanjun is occupied, the French army will not break through from Nanxincheng. As long as we cross the river, several fortresses in the northwest can defend the French army's breakthrough. Brother Liu's troops encircled the French army. The legal person must be afraid of being attacked from both sides and evacuated to Nanjun. At this time, General Dong seized Nanjun..." Lu Yiwei pointed at several strategic points on the map and continued: "Where can the French army run?"
"Only Nanxin City." The two of them said in unison.
The three of them looked at each other and laughed happily from the entire command center...
