In mid-May, the reorganization work of the two cavalry corps of the Western Sichuan Army was in full swing. A large number of standard weapons of the Western Sichuan Army were delivered to the two cavalry corps. At the same time, a large number of artillery and other technical arms were added, making these two cavalry corps more capable.
The combat effectiveness of the two cavalry armies has been greatly enhanced. Although the individual qualities of the Ma Jiajun soldiers may not be as good as those of the Western Sichuan Army soldiers, they have been raised on horses since childhood and are indeed born knights.
.With the systematic training of the Western Sichuan Army, the combat effectiveness is increasing day by day.
Seeing such a situation, Wang Yuze and Cai Yun were very happy. During the process of reorganizing the troops, it was undoubtedly the time when their combat effectiveness was the weakest and the most dangerous. Once the reorganization was completed, it was time to reveal their sharp claws.
It's time.
"Young Marshal, if we keep going at this rate, the two cavalry corps will be ready to fight in about a month. There are more than 70,000 cavalry in total! We can almost fight from Gansu to Beijing!" Cai Yun was very excited.
Excited. In this era, cavalry is still one of the most powerful arms. Once the two cavalry corps of the Western Sichuan Army are formed, the Western Sichuan Army will have extremely powerful combat power in this regard. When facing the Qing army, there will also be
More powerful advantages.
"Yes! It's the last month. I hope Chengdu can buy us a month!" Wang Yuze was a little worried. There is no airtight wall in the world. If the Western Sichuan Army takes over Gansu and Qinghai provinces, it will inevitably be defeated.
The Qing court knows. At that time, it will be time for Western Sichuan and the Qing court to break up. Maybe, this will be a decisive battle between Western Sichuan and the Qing court. Therefore, it is undoubtedly the most important to quickly complete the reorganization of the two cavalry armies.
of.
"Young Marshal, don't worry. Although the Qing Dynasty has a million-strong army, there are not many troops that can really fight. We are fully capable of dealing with it. What we really have to worry about is the attitude of foreigners. Now most of China has become
It has become a colony of the great powers, and they are absolutely unwilling to see the birth of a powerful China. As early as more than ten years ago, if Britain, France and Russia had not intervened, we might have reached Beijing!" Cai Yun said.
It was because of the intervention of the great powers that Western Sichuan had to lie dormant for more than ten years. However, it is precisely because of these ten years of peaceful development that Western Sichuan has become stronger. In terms of the army alone, Western Sichuan is no worse than any of the great powers.
. However, in terms of navy, except for a few river gunboats, Western Sichuan is still blank.
"One day we will defeat these powers. China has 400 million people, so we have to occupy at least a quarter of the land. But now, these lands are in the hands of foreigners. When the time comes, we will have to use guns and cannons
Go and grab the bayonet!" Wang Yuze's eyes shone with determination.
Cai Yun was stunned after hearing Wang Yuze's words. He had never thought that this young commander, who was somewhat cowardly by nature, would have such a lofty ideal in his heart. However, although this ideal sounds unbelievable, it makes people's blood boil. Doesn't it?
?China has such a large population, but now its territory has been lost. For soldiers like them, this is a complete shame.
"Chief of Staff, to the west is Xinjiang. I want to send an army to Xinjiang and bring this area into our jurisdiction in western Sichuan. The Russians are eyeing this place, and I will never allow the Russians to steal an inch from us.
Land!" Wang Yuze said firmly.
"Young Marshal, after we finish the battle with the Qing court, we can send troops into Xinjiang. Our troops are still too weak now!" Cai Yun suggested.
"Yeah!" Wang Yuze nodded and said nothing more. The Russians are undoubtedly the country that has encroached on the most territory in China. Now that history has changed, Wang Yuze will never sit idly by. One day, he will take these things
The territory was taken back even with profit!
At the same time, the city of Beijing, thousands of miles away, had exploded. The news that Yang Changjun, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, had been killed, finally reached the ears of Emperor Guangxu after a month.
A soldier from the Green Camp of Lanzhou escaped from the hands of the Ningma Army by luck. He saw with his own eyes that Ma Zhengyuan cut off Yang Changjun's head with a knife. Then he hid in the country, and finally came to Xi'an a month later, asking to see Shaanxi
Governor Wei Guangtao was also lucky. He happened to meet Wei Guangtao who was out on the street, and took the risk to stop Wei Guangtao's sedan. Although he was severely beaten by the guarding soldiers, he also saw Wei Guangtao. He immediately killed Yang Changjun.
The news was reported to Wei Guangtao.
After Wei Guangtao heard the news, he did not dare to neglect and immediately sent people to investigate. In less than five days, he got the exact news. Yang Changjun, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, had indeed been killed, and the Western Sichuan Army had captured Gansu and Qinghai.
In both provinces, the famous Ma Jiajun has been defeated by the Western Sichuan Army.
Wei Guangtao was even more stunned when he received the news. In just one month, the situation in the entire northwest has changed drastically. It has changed from the Ma Jiajun's world to the Western Sichuan Army's world. Shaanxi is right next to Gansu! Once
If the Western Sichuan Army wanted to advance eastward, the first place to attack would be Shaanxi. Wei Guangtao did not dare to think too much and immediately ordered the Green Camp in Shaanxi to enter a state of combat readiness. At the same time, he sent the information he received to Beijing to request a holy judgment.
The governor was killed and the territory of two provinces was occupied. This was a big deal! In the court, the military ministers were all in chaos.
"What did I say? Ah? I've said it a long time ago. The Western Sichuan Army is basically a group of bandits. They are just a group of hungry wolves that cannot be fed enough! The court's concession will only intensify their greedy desires. Now it's better
Right? The dignified governor, a first-class official was actually killed. Where does this put the face of the imperial court and my face?" In the Jinluan Hall, Emperor Guangxu was furious, his face was red, and his face was showing signs of embarrassment.
Qingjin. The Western Sichuan Army defeated the Ma Jiajun, fully occupied Gansu and Qinghai provinces, and killed the governor of the imperial court. This made him very angry, but at the same time he also felt a little happy. He had already said that he would wipe out Western Sichuan.
, now it has been proved how correct what he said at the beginning was! The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were simply short-sighted.
"Your Majesty is wise, and your servants deserve death!" All the Manchu and Han ministers knelt on the ground.
"Now, I am determined to fight to the death with Western Sichuan and completely annihilate Western Sichuan. What do you think?" Emperor Guangxu vented his anger and asked. He thought to himself that now that Western Sichuan has exposed its wolfish ambitions, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty should not have any.
People are objecting to him starting a war with Western Sichuan!
However, after Emperor Guangxu asked the question, the entire Jinluan Palace immediately fell silent. All the kneeling ministers lowered their heads. No one answered Emperor Guangxu, and no one echoed him.
"Are you dumb? I want to start a war in western Sichuan? Do you agree?" Emperor Guangxu's face suddenly turned ugly. The performance of these ministers made him feel unspeakable anger.
In the Jinluan Hall, there was still no answer. Everyone knew that the emperor wanted to start a war, but Lafayette didn't want to fight! This is the Qing Dynasty! It only counts after Lafayette said so.
"Shi Duo, what do you say?" Emperor Guangxu saw that no one spoke, so he had to call his name.
"Back to the emperor, we will start a war with western Sichuan. We will have to use hundreds of thousands of troops! Raising money and food will take a lot of time. Everything needs to be discussed in the long run!" Shi Duo had no choice but to bite the bullet and said. However, he did not say he agreed.
, and did not say that he disagreed. Everything had to wait until the end of the court meeting and report to Cixi before making a decision.
"Shi Duo, you are harming the country! As a minister in charge of military aircraft, you are timid in everything. What is the use of you?" Emperor Guangxu was furious and cursed fiercely.
"You deserve to die!" Shi Duo quickly knelt down and kowtowed. However, he did not pay attention to Emperor Guangxu's scolding. After all, as long as Cixi supported him, he would still be a military leader inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Foreman, as for Emperor Guangxu's scolding, let him scold him, and he won't lose a ounce of meat.
Emperor Guangxu was speechless when he saw this, so he had to disperse the court. However, after the court dispersed, he went to see Cixi. He remembered that Cixi had promised to support him if Western Sichuan did not withdraw from Gansu and Qinghai provinces.
War started in western Sichuan!
