Chapter 59: Is it true that I am a god using troops? 3

"Brother Chang, please spare me! I really don't want to make things difficult for my elder brother, I have to do it, I have to..."

Colonel Li Jinbao, the commander of the 55th Regiment of the 13th Division of the Beiyang Army, had not been taken up yet, and the shouts of hoarseness came from afar.

At this time, Chang Ruiqing was wearing a straight military uniform and a wool-scout coat. The big-brimmed hat was pressed down low. He stood on a slope with his hands behind his back. His expression was tightly tense. He looked coldly at the bottom of the slope, and there were a large area of ​​prisoners sitting there.

The battle of Xihongmen Town lasted for only half a night and was declared to be overwhelming victory of the Model Regiment! The 10000 officers and soldiers of the 55th Regiment of the 13th Division, except for a very few, were all wiped out, including their regiment commander Li Jinbao. This battle is not worth mentioning from a tactical perspective. It was just a group of rookies with a little professional and a little firmer will beat a group of rookies with less professional and no fighting spirit. And it did not have much technical content, but it just shot from a distance to lure the opponent back, consumed almost the same bullets of the opponent, and then launched a round of white soldiers assault, and then it was like a group fight. In short, more people were strong and more powerful, defeated the less people and less powerful.

However, from a strategic perspective, it severely hit the arrogance of Zhang Xun's restoration group! It strengthened the Chinese people's confidence in winning the repetitive struggle, and shattered the myth of the invincible "Qing Army"... Well, is there such a myth? Anyway, this is what the middle school history textbooks in later generations wrote, after all, this is the first time that the "great commander" Chang Ruiqing commandered a battle! How can it be done if you don't write a book? As for the scene where Colonel Li Jinbao was tied up and held in front of Commander Chang, it often appears in various movies and TV series that reflect the history of the early Republic of China in later generations!

"Brother Chang, I deserve to die!" As soon as Li Jinbao saw Chang Ruiqing pretending to be majestic and pretending to be a "great commander" there, tears came down and he crawled under Chang Ruiqing's heels: "I beg Brother Chang to let me give you a way out of my life. In this life, I will never dare to offend my brother's power again. But I beg Brother Chang to let me give you all my property to my elder brother, and I will also place the eternal tablet for Brother Chang at home!"

Chang Ruiqing glanced at him and smiled bitterly. This guy is too cowardly, right? It seems nothing great if he defeated him. I don’t know if someone is more powerful, would he be defeated?

Thinking of this, he shook his head and smiled gently at the other party: "Captain Li, they all lead troops to fight, why are you crying? Isn't it just that you have lost a war? Victory and defeated military affairs are common, nothing is amazing... Besides, we are all our own people, all of them are from the Beiyang lineage, why do you say that you will not spare your life? If I kill you, how can you meet your colleagues in Beiyang in the future?"

As he said that, he waved his hand and asked someone to tie Li Jinbao up, and then helped the leader who was crying like a tearful person. He also dusted the dust on his clothes, pointed to the pile of prisoners, and smiled and said, "There are more than 800 brothers here, all of whom have handed over the weapons to their subordinates, and some even had lottery tickets. I'm really embarrassed."

"No, no, they all asked for it. Don't blame Brother Chang, really don't blame Brother Chang." Li Jinbao smiled all over his face, and he couldn't help but nod and bow to Chang Ruiqing. He was convinced. The officers and soldiers of the model regiment really dared to see the bayonets. They rushed up with bright bayonets, and they rushed up, and they were officials who rushed forward. They tried their best as soon as they surrendered slowly. They would be stabbed! His two horsemen were loyal to the master, and resisted a little, but they were stabbed into a blood gourd! After a few screams, they were gone. It was so pitiful. They were all the nephews of the old Li family! One of them had just married a wife...

Chang Ruiqing looked at this cowardly and just smiled: "Captain Li, then you can take these brothers back first, and more than 200 people who have lost their lives will take the corpse back. Alas, they are all out for the mercy. You can't just throw the corpse in the wilderness like this, right? As for those weapons..."

"Weapons are not needed anymore. They are all from the elder brother. My younger brother can't use that thing anymore. When I go back, I will dismiss them..."

Chang Ruiqing waved his hand and smiled, "That's not possible, that's not possible. Those guns are worth a lot of money. How can brothers want them? Besides, brothers' teams are not tying poles. They are all national troops. If they want to expand, they also provide equipment from their own countries. It is useless for your 55th Regiment's gun brothers to come, but they can't be returned to you now. When our Republic of China comes back, brothers will send someone to return the weapons."

"Right! Brother Chang, you are so righteous! I ask your eternal tablet to be worshipped in my family for generations..." When Li Jinbao heard that the other party was willing to hand over the weapons and equipment, he was grateful. He bowed and bowed to Chang Ruiqing, and he almost knelt down and bowed three times and nine times.

Chang Ruiqing nodded with a smile, waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take the cowardly commander down to rest. He had planned to release people and make weapons, which was to give Li Jincai a favor. After all, the other party was also a division commander of Beiyang and his nominal commander. He had killed more than 200 fellow villagers, and it would be too unlucky to steal things. As for the more than 800 cowardly prisoners, holding them in their hands would only waste food. Putting them back can make them add fuel to the fire and promote the bravery and good combat of the model regiment. In this way, the other three regiments of the 13th Division would most likely die and would not dare to leave the Nanyuan Camp.

...

January 19, 1917.

Beijing.

No. 2, Tieshizi Hutong, inside the Army Department of the Qing Empire, several Beiyang officials wearing neatly wore flower feathers, were holding the battle reports they had just received, sucking in the cold air. Everyone's faces were pale, looking at each other, and no one spoke.

Zhang Xun sat in the upper seat, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, drinking without raising his head, and didn't know what he was thinking about in his heart.

When the new Army Minister Lei Zhenchun saw that the situation was a little cold, he spoke first: "One regiment to another regiment... In just half a night, the entire army was wiped out. Is this too cowardly?"

"Hmph, isn't it because of the poor cooperation between friendly forces? The 55th Regiment of our 13th Division fought alone? It was outnumbered, which led to defeat?" Li Jincai's face was so gloomy that he replied with a gun and a stick.

"My 12th Division is stationed in Beiyuan, and it is a whole Beijing city from Xihongmen in Fengtai County! You can't get there even if you have wings. However, the three soldiers in the Nanyuan Barracks will be able to arrive in just one hour. Four regiments will fight one regiment. No matter how powerful his model regiment is, he will have to be in trouble!" Chen Guangyuan knew that Li Jin was blaming him, and replied without hesitation.

"This moon is dark and the wind is high, and the enemy is unknown, how can you attack at will? If you get ambushed, who will guard the Nanyuan camp and who will be responsible for the Nanda Gate of the capital? Besides... who will let them take charge? I, the division commander, are not here..." Li Jincai stood at attention, saluted Zhang Xun respectfully, and shouted: "Master General, please ask for your order to fight. My 13th Division vowed to be irreconcilable with the Chang thief!"

"Please go out to fight under the bidding. I will take Chang Ruiqing and Fengtai City to the Grand Marshal in three days!" Chen Guangyuan was not willing to be outdone, so he jumped up and asked for a fight.

Hearing the words of the two division commanders asking for battle, Zhang Xun smiled coldly and glanced at them in a gloomy manner: "Why use a knives to kill chickens? You should stay in Beijing with me with me! Just leave the Fengtai matter to Baoshan. I have already brought eight camps out with him."

"Shaoxuan, do you think the emperor is really in Fengtai City? If the army attacks the city, what will happen to the emperor..." After hearing Zhang Xun's words, Wang Shizhen frowned and reminded.

Zhang Xun sneered and waved his hand: "He Chang Ruiqing may not necessarily have the emperor in his hand, but I must have the parents named Chang in my hand!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door. He saw Zhang Xun's nephew Zhang Biting walking in in a panic. Seeing the high-ranking officials in the room, they didn't care about ceremonies and greetings, they ran to Zhang Xun, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Not good! Xuzhou Zhang Wenzheng reported that Chang Ruiqing's parents were picked up by our Japanese military consultant last night! I don't know where they went now..."
