Four hundred and ninetieth chapters defeated like a mountain
The Beiyang Army had no idea about the air force. Faced with the attack from the aircraft, they had no means of response and could only flee in panic. Some fled madly, and some simply lay on the ground and pretended to be dead. In short, they were crying for their father and mother.
There are all.
Facing the panicked enemy troops, it was the time when the Air Force showed its prowess. The planes flew at ultra-low altitudes and continuously fired machine guns at the ground. The Beiyang Army was swept away in swaths, and the hillsides were littered with dead bodies.
, there are struggling and seriously injured people everywhere.
The ferocity and power of the plane, as well as the sudden attack, made the already frightened Beiyang soldiers even more frightened. They fled back to their positions at the foot of the mountain frantically. There was originally a supervising team here to supervise, and anyone who dared to escape from the battle would be severely beaten.
Cut off the head.
But facing the plane, these supervising teams couldn't stand it anymore. They threw down their swords early and took the lead in escaping frantically. The leaders all ran away, especially the others. For a while, they were on the road west of Guangren Ridge.
There were scenes of thousands of people being defeated, and some trails were even blocked.
Fengjun's air force carried out a fierce attack on them until all the bullets were used up. Seeing that the fuel was not enough, they flew back in confusion. After the plane left, these Beiyang troops barely recovered.
After returning to normal, Qu Tongfeng also took his close associates and hurriedly gathered the soldiers.
After gathering them all, his face had turned into a bitter melon. There were less than 8,000 troops out of a total of more than 11,000 people, and more than 1,000 of them died in the battle.
Another nearly 2,000 people were lost as a result of the aircraft.
Of course, a dozen planes were not so powerful, and less than 200 people were actually killed. The other soldiers fled because of fear. As the division commander, Qu Tongfeng was also frightened, and he had no ability to deal with the planes.
Good idea. Moreover, the large-scale appearance of planes means that reinforcements from the Fengjun army are about to arrive.
Thinking of this, Qu Tongfeng could not help but feel chills all over his body, and chills came from his neck. Beiyang had a huge military advantage, but it had not yet captured Chengde where thousands of remaining soldiers were stationed. This meant that both sides had huge advantages.
There is a gap in combat effectiveness. If Fengjun becomes truly elite, how should they deal with it?
Thinking of this, Qu Tongfeng had completely lost the confidence to continue fighting, and hurriedly asked Xu Shuzheng for help. At this time, Xiao Xu was also worried about this. Just when the Beiyang Army was about to capture Chengde, a large number of planes appeared in front of them.
The casualties caused by the indiscriminate bombing were not too great, with only more than 100 people killed and less than 200 injured. However, the participation of the Air Force in the war severely damaged Beiyang's confidence, and none of the soldiers dared to continue.
After fighting in the city, they had no choice but to retreat from Chengde.
Xu Shuzheng also called Zhang Huaizhi and Chen Wenyun, and the three of them looked at each other. The easy victory was gone. Next, they had to face the powerful Fengjun attack. No one was sure whether they could withstand it. Just from the Air Force
You can see the difference in equipment between the two sides.
"Supervisor, the Fengjun army is coming with a fierce force, and I can't see how we can defeat it." Chen Wenyun said at the side: "This time our army broke through the Great Wall Pass and entered Rehe, which has greatly increased the prestige of the Central Committee and severely damaged the morale of the Fengjun army. I
You can just accept it once you see it!"
Chen Wenyun found a decent place for Xu Shuzheng. Zhang Huaizhi on the side was still a little dissatisfied. As an old Beiyang, he still had a little pride, thinking that his army was the best in the world. If he didn't even see the large army of Fengjun, it would be like this
It was a bit embarrassing to retreat.
Xiao Xu was hesitant at this time, and his mind was full of random thoughts. At this time, he was only about 20 kilometers away from Chengde. A troop of less than 20 armored vehicles was marching quickly, setting off a huge cloud of dust behind the convoy, covering the area.
The sky blocks out the sun.
Assisting Chengde was actually a comprehensive use of new tactics. Zhang Tinglan mobilized a total of thirty-two armored vehicles and let these steel behemoths act as the vanguard, taking advantage of their speed to quickly assist the Feng army trapped in Chengde.
The armored vehicles traveled less than 200 kilometers along the way, but there were more than twenty of them. After emergency repairs, they were able to reach the outskirts of Chengde. Only twenty of them were in basically good condition. This is also very depressing.
.But this is the case with any new equipment. To move from immaturity to maturity, in fact, if twenty vehicles can arrive here, it will already be a good thing.
The person in charge of this armored force was Zhang Tingshu. My father and eldest brother were promoted and became the masters of the three eastern provinces. Zhang Tingshu's status also rose with the tide. Many people focused their public relations on the second young master.
Outsiders flocked to them, but Young Master Zhang had no interest in these guys. He mainly focused on the army, especially with the improvement of the industrial level in the Northeast, more and more new equipment appeared. Zhang Tingshu was most interested in
Or armored strength, this thing has a strong body, fierce firepower, and superior maneuverability. It is definitely a weapon with broad development prospects.
In particular, Fengjun is developing a new tank equipped with a 37mm gun, which is far more powerful than an armored vehicle. It is what Young Master Zhang admires most. Zhang Xueliang likes to play with airplanes, and he loves tanks and armored vehicles. Zhang Tingshu also has
With a passion for research, he collected a large amount of information on the use of European tanks and studied hard. Fengjun also just started to equip this type of weapon, and the research was not in depth.
Zhang Tingshu could only discuss some new ideas with Zhang Tinglan. Zhang Tinglan initially thought that he was just a temporary interest, but after observation, he found that Zhang Tingshu did have a very good talent in the use of mechanized power.
Zhang Tinglan then confidently and boldly handed over the management of the armored vehicle brigade to him. The second young master took a brief rest, ate a few mouthfuls of dry steamed buns, and then said to all the soldiers: "Brothers, the front is Chengde. According to logic
Generally speaking, we should wait for the follow-up infantry to arrive and provide us with cover before launching the attack. But I think the Beiyang Army has never seen armored vehicles at all, and they firstly do not have anti-tank artillery, secondly they are not equipped with grenade blasters, and thirdly they have not been trained.
As soon as they see our armored vehicles, they will run away, so we will rush into Chengde immediately to let the Beiyang Army know how powerful we are!"
These armored soldiers were all fearless. Upon hearing Zhang Tingshu's proposal, they all agreed. After getting into the vehicles, they formed two columns and swept towards Chengde.
A distance of less than 20 kilometers could be reached with just one charge. This was also the first time that the Feng army concentrated on using armored forces on a large scale. Zhang Tingshu and the others all had fun and moved forward at the fastest speed. They were about to see the sun.
As the sun sets in the west, the red sunset lights up the entire sky.
Chengde, which had just been ravaged by the flames of war, felt a strange sense of tranquility. The Beiyang Army was at a loss in advance and retreat, and they didn't know what to do. At this moment, a huge roar came from the eastern horizon, and all the Beiyang Army on guard were frightened.
They jumped. They thought the plane was coming again, and some of them were timid and even looked for hiding places. The lesson the plane taught them was really profound.
However, after they waited for a long time, they did not find anything appearing in the sky. Instead, huge clouds of dust rose up on the ground in the distance. In the dust, they could faintly see some fast-moving objects. The Beiyang Army was first frightened by the plane.
They jumped a lot. They already felt a little frightened. Now that they saw unknown weapons, each of them felt a little weak in their calves, and they felt like running away.
Gradually, the armored vehicles got closer and closer. Some Beiyang sentries rushed forward helplessly, shooting these steel monsters with carbine from a distance. However, the bullets hit the vehicle and only caused a spark, which did not damage the armored vehicle at all.
.These people were frightened again.
There was no way to fight this battle. Feng Jun always brought out a bunch of strange things. They had never even seen them, so how could they deal with them. All these sentries fled in all directions, like wild ducks.
run.
Zhang Tingshu kept his head exposed outside the armored vehicle and carefully observed the situation of the Beiyang Army. When he saw these guys running away, he was so happy that he directed all the vehicles to crash into the Beiyang Army's position.
On the way they arrived, two more armored vehicles were lying down. In the end, only eighteen vehicles actually arrived on the battlefield, but it did not hinder the huge momentum. These armored vehicles were arranged in a wild goose formation, with their wings extended and galloping, with all the people behind them.
The dust was rising high and filled the sky, making it difficult to see how many vehicles there were from a distance.
When the soldiers in Beiyang saw this situation, they were all frightened. They didn't know how to deal with it. The vehicles were getting closer and closer, and they easily ran over a trench. Some of the obstacles placed had no effect.
The armored vehicle moved forward bravely without any obstruction, and in a blink of an eye it reached the position 200 meters away from the Beiyang Army's position.
Only then did two machine guns fire wildly. The machine gunners tried their best to shoot at these guys, but apart from splashing out a string of sparks, there was no effect. It was like scratching an itch. It had no effect at all.
And the machine guns on the armored vehicle finally fired. The two machine guns were spitting out flames. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen soldiers were beaten to pieces, and the two machine guns also stopped making noise. Then the armored vehicle moved forward quickly and ran over them mercilessly.
In the machine gun position, huge tracks pressed down on the machine gun, and this killing weapon instantly turned into a pile of twisted parts.
Seeing such a brutal scene, those Beiyang troops finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to flee crazily. Fear spread like a plague among the Beiyang troops, and more and more people joined the ranks of fleeing.
Zhang Tingshu was so proud that the Second Young Master had never been so majestic before. He commanded the armored vehicles to advance rapidly as if they were in an uninhabited land. Wherever they went, all the Beiyang troops fled frantically and did not dare to fight.
At this time, another huge plume of smoke appeared in the north, and it was rushing here quickly. This was the Jehol Cavalry Brigade commanded by Wu Kaijie. It turned out that this unit was stationed in Chifeng, and as long as it fought against the Mongolian bandits, Zhang Tinglan this time for
To aid Chengde, this troop was naturally transferred over.
Wu Kaijie and the others often hunted down the Mongolian bandits, and they had already learned the tactic of one man and two horses. After receiving the order, they rushed to Chengde as fast as possible, without caring about the horses at all. However, they hurriedly and slowly hurried, but they were still one step behind.
Armored troops have already entered the battle.
Wu Kaijie could only command the cavalry to follow up quickly along the opening opened by the armored vehicle. With the cavalry at the back to help, the armored vehicle did not have to worry about being attacked from the side. Zhang Tingshu was more confident and attacked the Beiyang Army in depth.
Xu Shuzheng and the others were still discussing what to do in the headquarters. The staff officer ran in in a panic and said as soon as they met: "Supervisor, reinforcements from Fengjun have arrived. They are all steel chariots. The brothers don't know how to deal with them. They are all frightened."
They were so stupid that they ran away one after another!"
When Xiao Xu heard this report, his vision suddenly went dark and he almost fell to the ground. He still had some knowledge and knew that Feng Jun had displayed this kind of weapon during a military parade, but he didn't expect that it would be used on him now.
Xu Shuzheng gritted his teeth and said: "Is there something evil in the Feng army? Beiyang has the resources of the central government, but its weapons and equipment are seriously lagging behind them. It is simply a shame and a great humiliation!"
"Supervisor, there is no time to lament now. It is better to retreat quickly. At least stabilize the morale of the troops before fighting again!" Chen Wenyun couldn't help but said.
Xu Shuzheng nodded reluctantly: "Commander Zhang, Commander Chen, you each leave a regiment behind, and the other troops will retreat temporarily." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
