Chapter 60: Is it true that I am a god?

Bai Baoshan, the general of the Dingwu Army and the commander of Haizhou, went to the front line to supervise the battle for the first time.

He set out from Beijing in the early morning of January 20. Zhang Xun gave him the order to leave Beijing from Zhengyangmen, go west along the Beijing ring railway line to Fengtai, and then surround the Chang Ruiqing Model Regiment in Fengtai and maintain firepower contact. Zhang Xun's subordinates only gave him eight battalions he brought from Haizhou, plus one with more than half of the loss, leaving only four Japanese mountain cannon battalions, with less than three thousand troops.

There were only such a few people in his hand, and considering the victory that his opponent had just achieved, Bai Baoshan did not dare to take it lightly this time, so he had to "stay forward" with a few kilometers away. His troops climbed for most of the day until the afternoon of the 20th. Before he could catch his breath, he smoked some smoke to cheer up his spirits. His vanguard troops were in a fire with the small troops of the model regiment who were on the alert mission outside Fengtai City.

The model regiment had at most a company, carrying a water-cooled machine gun, hidden in a small wood on the roadside of Fengtai City North Road. When Bai Baoshan's vanguard battalion swayed by, it suddenly opened fire, and dozens of them were knocked down in an instant! This shooting level was much beyond the expectations of the braided soldiers. What surprised them even more was that after a burst of gunfire, the officers and soldiers of the model regiment actually picked up bayonets and launched a round of white soldiers assaults!

Where did the braided soldiers from the patrol battalion who came from the late Qing Dynasty have seen such a formation? As a result, they naturally collapsed at once. A whole battalion head was destroyed by a company in less than twenty minutes. The weapons and ammunition were thrown all over the ground. Many braided soldiers picked up the bayonets issued to them and fled while cutting their braids. The defeated defeated soldiers stormed the marching teams of the several battalions behind them. For a moment, the three thousand braided soldiers were in chaos... In the end, Bai Baoshan took his own personal military camp to the front line and stabilized his position, and pressed the team back to the woods with his absolute military advantage.

Bai Baoshan was also a powerful general under Zhang Xun's tent. Whether it was the suppression of the Boxer Regiment in Shandong in the year of Gengzi, the fighting of the Revolutionary Party in Jiangsu in the year of 1911, or the anti-Yuan army against the Kuomintang during the Second Revolution, they had made great achievements. Of course, they would not be scared by the series of ambushes set up by Chang Ruiqing.

After seeing that the formation was stable, he immediately ordered the Qing Dynasty dragon flag and the general flag with the characters "Zhang" and "bai" written next to him, and then ordered to several Guanshu who came to ask for instructions: "Send the order and summon the selection! Each person has three yuan of rewards for money, and get a rebellion (well, it is the authentic Beiyang CSKA) and add five yuan to the head! Get Chang Ruiqing, no matter how alive or dead, you will be rewarded with ten thousand yuan! You will be promoted to three levels!" The several Guanshu shouted and called the Selection.

At this time, in the woods, the two eyeballs on the head worth ten thousand yuan were looking at the opposite front through a six-fold military telescope. Chang Ruiqing had just arrived from Fengtai County with a battalion reinforcements, and the ambush in this woods was a company of Bai Chongxi's first battalion.

"Cang Xi, the fight was good!" Chang Ruiqing put down his telescope and smiled at a short, strong and honest young captain beside him, who had a slightly baby-fat face and said, "A company almost shook the eight battalions of Bai Baoshan! He is truly a tiger general in our model regiment."

"Cang Xi" is the name of the young captain. His surname is Xia and Wei. He also graduated from the third term of Baoding. He is from Guangxi like Bai Chongxi. He is also famous in history. He fought the battle of Xiangjiang that almost ruined the Central Red Army.

After hearing this, Xia Wei showed a full of arrogance on his fat face. He waved his hand indifferently: "Captain, these braided soldiers can't help but beat them at all, and they even had a shy face to claim to be the most powerful soldier in the southeast. It's really ridiculous! I think we should stop fighting against the city defense, so I'd just pull out the main force and fight with them. I'll destroy the three thousand in front of me first, and then take over and attack into Beijing City, capturing Zhang Xun's bastard alive!"

Chang Ruiqing laughed and scolded: "You Xia Cangxi, I didn't know that the world is so high that I had won a small victory? Do you really think our model regiment is the best in the world?" He stinged: "After all, our model regiment has not been established for a long time, and it's not as good as the real elite of a hundred battles. Our soldiers are all new soldiers, and it's okay to fight a smooth battle. Once you are in a difficult situation, you may be revealed... Besides, we have already performed enough in this farce of rebuilding the republic. You can't eat alone and make everything go. With this contribution now, a mixed brigade is hand-made. Even if you take Beijing City, can you still give it to a division?"

"What's wrong? With Brother Yaoru's ability, a teacher is not easy to win!" The person who flattered was Zhao Zhen, one of the four great kings under Chang Ruiqing. The camp brought by Chang Ruiqing was his. He is a figure in the core circle of the Iron Blood Comrade Association and the Red Brigade. Naturally, he knows that this boss Chang's method is not a problem.

Chang Ruiqing sneered: "You have to eat food in one bite, and you have to be promoted step by step. Climbing too fast may not be a blessing..."

"Archite! Hurry up and hide..." As Chang Ruiqing was speaking, he heard someone shouting "Architecture". He quickly raised his telescope and looked at the opponent's front. He saw four Meiji 38-year-old artillery being pushed by a team of Braids Army artillery to about three thousand meters away from the grove. Artillery positions were being arranged. However, looking at their busy hands, it was probably not accurate to shoot the cannon. On both sides of these artillery, there were hundreds of chaotic braids who were organizing attacks. You could vaguely see two baskets of white money, more than a dozen swords and axemen wearing big red jackets and carrying ghost-headed swords, as if they were in the supervision team.

"It's the same thing as the old Huai Army." Chang Ruiqing put down his telescope and said to Zhao Zhen beside him: "Let the brothers retreat first and wait for the shelling before returning to the position."

"Captain, do you want your brothers to rush first? Maybe you can steal the four Japanese mountain cannons." Zhao Zhen did not take the hundreds of braided soldiers' selections seriously at all, but looked at the mountain cannons with his eyes shining. Now there are classmates who graduated from the Baoding artillery department in the model regiment, but there are no cannons that can organize artillery companies for them.

"Don't be jealous, those precious mountain cannons are ours sooner or later!" Chang Ruiqing chuckled: "But it's too early now, those braided soldiers are not yet at the end of the three." As he said that, he took his followers back with a move.

At this time, the 75mm Japanese mountain cannons of the braided soldiers had already begun to be launched sporadically. The shells exploded into the snow outside the woods. Occasionally, a few shots fell into the woods, causing waves of snow and dust to sweep down several big trees, but the officers and soldiers of the model regiment had few casualties.

However, Bai Baoshan, who was watching the battle from afar, nodded with satisfaction: "Good fight! Take a note of the cannon camp! Tell Bai Laohu that it will be up to him next, don't lose my Bai Baoshan's face!"

The white tiger was not named Bai, but she had fair skin and extremely fierce temperament, so she got the nickname of Bai Tiger. Gradually, others forgot his original name and called him Bai Tiger. This man was born as a bandit in northern Jiangsu. After being recruited by Bai Baoshan, he became the number one thug under his command. Every time he charges, this "white tiger" is indispensable.

After receiving Bai Baoshan's order, Bai Laohu was not vague. He took a red flag with white characters embroidered with black thread, waved it hard a few times, and shouted at the braided soldiers who were still messing around him, "Brothers! It's time to serve our General Bai! Everyone follows me, only to advance but not retreat!"

After yelling, Bai Laohu and Sanbai multi-sized people squeezed into a pile, yelling and rushed forward. Two water-cooled machine guns were also mounted, and they rushed towards the woods. It looked lively, but there was no accurate point at all.
