Chapter 222: Ding the national army, move forward! (Ask for a monthly ticket)
“Electrify the whole country and make Sichuan independent!…,
Wang Hengyue of Jiubengna looked solemn: "From now on, the Sichuan Military Government is established, and Wang Hengyue is appointed as the commander-in-chief. The independent mixed division is renamed "Dingguo Army." Wang Hengyue is appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Dingguo Army, and Jiang Li is appointed as the chief of general staff. Each brigade is automatically promoted to a division!
"
"yes!"
Wang Pingyue took a deep breath and said word by word: "Order, the entire Dingguo army is dispatched to protect the country and fight against Yuan, and rebuild the republic!"
"Protect the country and defeat Yuan, and rebuild the republic! Long live the Governor, and long live the Dingguo army!"
On March 3, 1916, Wang Hengyue, the "former" garrison envoy of southern Sichuan and commander of the independent mixed division, sent a telegram to the whole country, declaring Sichuan's independence!
At the same time, the Dingguo Army was established, and Wang Hengyue appointed himself commander-in-chief!
Wang Hengyue shouted the slogan "Protect the country, fight against Yuan, and rebuild the republic." The whole Sichuan was shocked and the whole country was shocked!
The moment that the Chinese people have been waiting for has finally arrived! The moment that Chen Huan was most worried about has also arrived!
Although Wang Hengyue has not moved, he has always been a bomb buried in Sichuan in Chen Huan's eyes, and now, this bomb has finally been detonated!
And Wang Hengyue also ascended to the position of governor of Sichuan for the first time!
This time is completely different from the independence of Rong County. That time Wang Hengyue took the initiative to give up his position as governor, but this time, once he takes the position, will Wang Hengyue get down?
The most elite force in Sichuan, the Dingguo Army, finally revealed their ferocious minions!
"Assemble the artillery! Everyone enter the combat position"...
"The artillery assembly is complete!"
Liu Sihai's attitude was a little arrogant. He dusted off his military uniform and said, "Target Beiyang, fire!" "Fire! Fire!"
On March 6, shortly after Beiyang captured Yibin, the Dingguo Army, which had been dormant for a long time, turned to counterattack across the board with artillery as the vanguard!
The fierce artillery fire devastated the Beiyang Army, and the rumbling sound of the artillery made the whole earth tremble!
Feng Yuxiang's 16th Mixed Brigade and Wu Xiangzhen's 4th Mixed Brigade were completely surrounded by artillery fire.
In Leshan, Zigong, Luzhou, and Meishan, all the officers of the Dingguo Army1 slowly drew out their command swords, then moved the sword forward and said forcefully: "Dingguo Army, move forward!"
Dingguo army, advance!
The Dingguo army launched a fierce counterattack on all fronts. Those Dingguo soldiers who had been recuperating for a long time, with the full support of artillery fire, charged towards the enemy like a roaring mountain and a tsunami: charge!
It’s a mess, it’s a complete mess!
Wang Hengyue chose the most violent hardship at the most appropriate time.
Countless heavy machine guns and light machine guns sprayed out bullets like a rainstorm, suppressing the enemy crazily. Those Dingguo Army soldiers wearing gray military uniforms and red scarves swept out fiercely!
The First Armored Division and the First Guard Division finally appeared on the battlefield!
Six cars covered with steel plates and equipped with Madsen machine guns rushed forward like monsters as if no one was around.
This kind of monster that appeared on the battlefield for the first time was unheard of. The bullet hit the steel plate of the "armored vehicle" and made a clanging sound, but it could not cause any damage to it.
But the armored vehicles are advancing fiercely and rapidly. At least on this battlefield, no one can stop them!
Peter felt aggrieved to act as the driver and endured Deng Xia's scolding.
"Damn it, Pete, drive more slowly, drive more slowly, I can't aim right, I can't aim right!"
"God, this is not a road for cars!" Pete also shouted angrily: "I've already driven very well, damn it!" Indeed, the roads here are not suitable for cars. This time the armored division was dispatched, even more
It was more of a practical exercise.
The car suddenly stopped. Deng Xia rushed forward and was almost thrown out: "Damn it, Peter, what are you doing?"
"It's not my fault, the car can't be driven!"
Deng Xia jumped out of the "armored vehicle" holding a machine gun, lying on the ground and "chugging" out a bullet: "Magazine, magazine!"
Peter quickly took out several magazines from the car and handed one to Deng Xia.
Four of the six armored vehicles had stalled, and the other two, which had lost the support of their companions, immediately stopped and launched defense on the spot.
Peter glanced back and was startled. The armored vehicle charged too hard and was already far away from the troops behind it.
The Beiyang soldiers, who were still in shock, saw these monsters suddenly stopped moving and started to attack again, shouting "Ouch".
"Gather the machine guns, gather the machine guns, hold this place!"
The fire net composed of six Madsen machine guns was absolutely lethal. The Beiyang soldiers who rushed up to try to retake this place suffered heavy casualties under such bursts of fierce firepower.
"Magazine, magazine!" Deng Xia shouted loudly while pulling the trigger.
"Damn it, I'm the deputy division commander, not the driver or the ammunition hand!" Pete muttered and handed over another magazine.
Deng Xia smiled: "This is my country. If I go to your country to fight in the future, I will be your driver and ammunition hand!"
"You are really crazy. Why is the United States going to war?" "I said what if, what if there is going to be a war?" In the sound of gunfire, the muzzle of the gun jumped happily, and those infantry brothers finally rushed up with a roar...
…
"The First Division of the Dingguo Army, advance!" "The Second Division of the Dingguo Army, advance!"
"Guard division, move forward!"
Following the voices of Xie Shuixiang, Li Yifeng, and Jia Haoyang, the strength of the three divisions launched the most ferocious attack on the two Beiyang mixed brigades with the momentum of a mountain roaring and a tsunami.
The artillery shells landed on the enemy's position with great force, and the artillerymen of the Dingguo Army were like a group of madmen, just smashing out the shells one after another.
It was fried too hard and too accurately!
The Beiyang Army was crowded together in chaos, and a falling artillery shell could often blow up a large area.
Liu Sihai stood upright. To the infantry, the sound of the cannon was simply a ravage to the ears, but to him, it was the most beautiful music in the world.
Suddenly, Liu Sihai frowned: "Where is the sex going?"
Suzuki Masahiro listened attentively for a long time before he said uncertainly: "It seems like the navy is firing cannons there!" "Navy army? Why are they here to join in the fun? Can their artillery shells be able to hit here?" Liu Sihai seemed to be
Very disdainful: "There are just a few broken ships and cannons, why are they here to join in the fun! Damn it, let the brothers fight harder, let the navy listen, what is a cannon fight!"
Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong on board the "Zhennan" and "Sichuannan" calmly watched their gunners fire out the shells.
This is not helpful on the battlefield, but this is the order given by Wang Hengyue.
The Dingguo Army's battle to protect the country has begun, and the navy army is also a part of the Dingguo Army.
Firing a cannon is more of a symbol!
This means that most of the troops of the Dingguo Army have been devoted to the war to protect the country.
Wang Hengyue even wanted to send his own aircraft into the war, but finally gave up the idea.
Although they only participated in the war symbolically, both Zhang Xiaoyue and Wu Qianlong firmly believed that sooner or later, their ships would join the fiery war!
Under the fierce counterattack of the Dingguo Army, the two brigades of the Beiyang Army were completely in chaos!
The previous battles had greatly weakened their combat effectiveness. The crazy artillery fire suppression of the Dingguo Army, the fierce infantry charge, and their seemingly inexhaustible supply of bullets made the Beiyang Army lose the ability to continue the battle.
ability.
Victory or failure is determined from the beginning!
"Support, support, let Feng Yuxiang move closer to me!" "Report Feng Yuxiang's request for us to move closer to him!" "What the hell, where is Zhou Jun? Let Zhou Jun's first division quickly break through the enemy's defense line and move closer to us!" "Brigade
"Chang, Zhou Jun didn't move at all!"
"What?" Wu Xiangzhen was dumbfounded.
These damn Sichuan troops are refusing to save them!
In fact, Wu Xiangzhen could not blame others. When he eliminated Liu Cunhou's second division, he had already frustrated the Sichuan army.
Now that the Dingguo army's offensive is so fierce, who is willing to come here to die?
Feng Yuxiang was also stunned.
After a lot of hard work, we finally got Yibin. Who would have thought that before our buttocks were even hot, the Dingguo army's massive counterattack had already begun.
Unstoppable, simply unstoppable!
These people don't have to pay to buy bullets or cannon shells! The Beiyang Army has enough ammunition, but the Dingguo Army on the opposite side seems to be competing one by one to see whoever shoots more bullets will get a reward from their superiors.
Similar!
"Brigadier, the left wing has been breached!" "Hold on, organize a counterattack and regain the position for me!"
"Brigadier, the right wing has also been breached. We can't hold it anymore! We can't hold it anymore!"
"Withdraw to the second line, withdraw to the second line!" "The brigade commander is in trouble. The rebels in Luzhou and Neijiang have moved, and our retreat will be cut off!"
Feng Yuxiang swayed and almost fell.
On March 6, the Dingguo army was mobilized across the board.
On the battlefield of Naxi, the National Guard Army commanded by Cai E held back the elite troops of Beiyang and fought bloody battles for twenty-seven days and nights without retreating a step.
On the Yibin battlefield, the Dingguo army used its absolute superiority in artillery fire and absolute strength to surround Beiyang's 4th Mixed Brigade and 16th Mixed Brigade!
By the 7th day of the battle, there was no suspense anymore. The defeat of the two brigades of Beiyang Army was a foregone conclusion!
A large number of Beiyang soldiers chose to surrender after victory and no hope of escape. The soldiers of the Dingguo Army had no time to care about these people.
Attack, attack, and attack again! This is the only thing they have to do.
This was advantageous to Wei Shunzhi, commander of the First Reserve Division of the Dingguo Army, and Jiang Naihe, commander of the Second Reserve Division, two officers of the patrol battalion at that time.
The number of prisoners they captured far exceeded the main force!
On the 8th, the 4th Beiyang Mixed Brigade and the 16th Mixed Brigade were defeated across the board and withdrew from Yibin. Wu Xiangzhen and Feng Yuxiang led the remnants of their troops and retreated in embarrassment. They were lucky enough to survive.
On March 8, 1916, Yibin was restored!
In fact, this cannot be said to be a restoration. Wang Hengyue just used this as a chess piece to slowly lure Beiyang to the bait, and then solved it in one fell swoop.
Wang Hengyue's eyes have now been set on the entire Sichuan!!
