"That's right! Originally, when we decided to launch the Northern Expedition, it was before the Great War of Zhifeng. Wu Peifu would not let the Feng faction ignore him and come south to fight with us. Maybe he would concentrate his forces to deal with the Feng faction. Jiangxi and Hunan were thrown to us. It’s a pity that such a good opportunity was given up because of Chen Jiongming’s rebellion.” Luo Yiqun was also angry when he mentioned Chen Jiongming. To be the military police commander of the whole country, and now Chen Jiongming has made him a deputy army commander in name only.

Hearing what the two said, Luo Yaoguo also felt that Chen Jiongming was a bit of a disaster. In fact, Chen Jiongming was the number two in Sun Yat-sen's family before, and the leader of the Cantonese army. It's not Chen Jiongming's!If Chen Jiongming knew that Sun Yat-sen would live until 1925, he would regret it to death. I don’t know if this guy would regret it in the history of the earth?However, this Chen Jiongming seems to be a little bit of an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, and it seems that he will not be completely settled until after Chiang Kai-shek's two Eastern Expeditions.

Thinking of this, Luo Yaoguo couldn't help but tighten his brows: "The situation in the Central Plains has never settled down. The strength of the Anhui and Feng factions is still there. It is estimated that they will make a comeback soon. We missed this opportunity, and we must not miss it next time. Therefore, this crusade against Chen Jiongming must be thorough! Otherwise, he will continue to hold us back and make us unable to leave Guangdong."

At this time, a fast horse galloped from the rear, bringing with it Chiang Kai-shek's order to summon Luo Yaoguo's uncle and nephew to the military headquarters to discuss the situation of the war.It turned out that Chiang Kai-shek received an urgent telegram from Sun Yat-sen on the way to the army. From Sun Yat-sen's telegram, Chiang Kai-shek learned that Chen Jiongming had now suffered retribution.

"Come here, Yichen, Fuwen, look at this, the telegram just received." Chiang Kai-shek handed over a newly translated telegram.

The telegram said that the First Division of the Cantonese Army on Chen Jiongming's side had defected at the front line of Fengchuan, and now cut off the retreat of the 30th Battalion led by Chen Jiongming's Chief of Staff Ye Ju. The Guangdong Warlords are almost at an end.What Sun Yat-sen meant was that he still hoped that the bandit army on the East Road could march quickly, and it would be best to be able to rush into Guangzhou City before the Dian army and the Guangxi army.

"Great! Chen Ni's end is coming soon, Mr. Jie, let's march as fast as we can, and don't let the Prime Minister down." Luo Yiqun couldn't help shouting after reading the contents of the telegram.

Luo Yaoguo took the telegram from his uncle and looked at it: "Very good, we will definitely win this battle."

"Guangzhou, can we get ahead of them?" Chiang Kai-shek shook his head, expressing his uncertainty.

"Jiegong, the right to speak in Guangzhou does not depend on who goes in first, but on who has more soldiers and more guns. We should not rush into Guangzhou, but strengthen our strength and bring a large army to the Prime Minister." Luo Yaoguo walked Pointing at the Fujian-Guangdong border in front of the map: "We will insert from here to Chaoshan, and then take Huizhou and dig out the roots of Chen Jiongming. Now there are Hong Zhaolin and Lin Hu armies on the Fujian-Guangdong border, we will be the first to swallow them .”

"Eat them?" Chiang Kai-shek smiled knowingly.

"We must use the smallest price, and it is best to use the whole army." Luo Yaoguo moved his finger to Chaozhou and Shantou again: "This is a good place, we should hold it for the Prime Minister and swallow Hong Baozi ( Hong Zhaolin’s nickname) we will reorganize here in the future, and then go to Huizhou, I guess Chen Jiongming’s final capital will go there.”

"Well, yes, we want to dig out the roots of Chen Jiongming. If we don't take down Huizhou, Chen Jiongming will always have the capital to make a comeback. However, you said that you want to eat Hong Baozi at the least cost. Is there any way you can do it?" Chiang Kai-shek raised his eyelids and looked at Luo Yaoguo.

"It's up to Jiegong and uncle to figure out a solution." Luo Yaoguo smiled slightly, "I think Jiegong has already figured out a good solution, right?"

"You're really getting more and more cunning, you can't hide anything from you." Chiang Kai-shek turned his face to look at Luo Yiqun and said, "Yichen, this time I'm going to trouble you to come out and discuss with Hong Baozi about the defection, how about it?" No matter what the conditions, we can agree to him first, but we must let him stay on the border between Fujian and Guangdong."

Chapter 0017 steamed buns of blood and tears (a)

Hong Zhaolin, whose name is Xiangchen, is a native of Hunan. He used to make a living selling buns, so he was nicknamed Hong Baozi.Later, he felt that the Baozi business had no future, so he went to Guangdong to serve as a soldier, and joined the Fang Desui Department of the Qing Army stationed in Huizhou as a personal soldier. Fang Desui was from Hunan, and the soldiers he used were also Hunan soldiers.Later, Hong Baozi became a sentry officer under Fang Desui, but Fang Desui was impeached by Cen Chunxuan, who was called "Guan Tu" in the late Qing Dynasty, and returned to his hometown. Therefore, Hong Baozi, who was not under the control of the boss, mistakenly handed in Chen Jiongming, a bad friend, First followed Chen Jiongming on the road of revolution, and then followed Chen Jiongming through the gates of counter-revolution. Historically, Chiang Kai-shek was defeated and died during the Second Eastern Expedition in 1926, but this time Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo obviously wanted to change history. The direction of life cannot be changed, just make a small change to save Baozi's life for a few years.

Hong Baozi is now the commander-in-chief of some rebellious army appointed by Chen Jiongming, commanding him and Lin Hu to go to Fujian to punish Xu Chongzhi and Chiang Kai-shek, the two rebels.However, Baozi Hong has no interest in going to Fujian. Instead, he puts his troops on the border between Fujian and Guangdong, probably because he is reluctant to leave Chaoshan, a cornucopia?

At the beginning of Chen Jiongming's rebellion, Hong Baozi was among the most active people. He seemed to be the one who led the army to attack the Grand Marshal Sun Yat-sen's mansion, but Baozi regretted it a little these two days.A few days ago, I heard the news that Chen Jiongming's number one general, Ye Ju, almost wiped out the entire army on the Xijiang front, and only a few troops were able to retreat to Luoding and Sanshui.Now supporting Sun Yat-sen's West Road beggar army all the way eastward, Chen Jiongming's army has no fighting spirit and has been defeated repeatedly. It seems that it will not be long before they will go to the field.What made Hong Baozi even more troublesome was the traitor named Chiang Kai-shek. This short-term chief of staff did not know what kind of luck he had, and now he has annexed Huang Dawei's army, bringing the first army of East Road Thieves to kill the Fujian-Guangdong border. At a glance, he knew that he was coming for himself, a thief.

"Xiangchen, is it you looking for me?" It was Lin Hu from Guangxi who pushed the door and walked into Hongbaozi's headquarters. Lin Hu's name is Yinqing. That's right, now he is the commander-in-chief of the Cantonese Army, and together with Hong Baozi, he went to fight against Chiang Kai-shek's rebellion. Here comes.

"Xiangchen, now that Chiang Kai-shek has come to the door himself, we just go in and attack him, so that we don't have to run away." Lin Hu yelled to fight and kill him as soon as he entered the door.

Hong Baozi touched his bald head with his hand: "Brother Yinqing, do you think that in this situation, we are going to attack Jiang, or is Jiang going to attack us? With [-] people in our hands, can we beat an army?" ?” Hong Baozi and Lin Hu had two armies on the books, but in reality the maximum was [-] to [-].

"Hey, brother Xiangchen, what are you worried about? Chiang Kai-shek only has one army, and we have two armies. Moreover, Chiang Kai-shek's army is newly expanded, and more than half of the recruits are recruits. If we really fight, we will definitely not be the opponents of our Guangxi army and Hunan army. "Speaking of his Guijun and Hong Baozi's Xiangjun Lin Hu, he was really confident, as if he thought he was Li Zongren.

"Oh, really?" Hong Baozi shook his head and sighed: "Chiang Kai-shek is certainly nothing to worry about, but I am afraid that Marshal Chen will not be able to support him for a few days. The Dian army, the Guangxi army brought by Sun Dapao, and the rebellious Guangdong army all combined There are 5 to [-] people together, and Chief of Staff Ye has lost his fortune in Xijiang, and the commander-in-chief’s confidants probably have no more than [-] troops. I heard that many generals of the Cantonese army are encouraging the commander-in-chief to return to Dongjiang.”

Lin Hu waved his hand when he heard this and shouted: "The commander-in-chief's side is not going well, we should fight hard here. I think Chiang Kai-shek is very likely to be eager to attack Guangzhou this time. We can join forces and suddenly insert into Fujian. Catch him off guard! His army has a lot of recruits, and it will definitely collapse at the first touch."

Hong Baozi thought for a while, then shook his head resolutely and said: "No, if the troops are wiped out, the two of us will really go to the wild and go home to eat old rice. I think so, send someone to negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek." , as long as we garrison the Chao and Mei lands, we will change sides! And we can also preserve our strength and wait for the commander-in-chief to make a comeback, right?"

"Even if we want to change the flag, we should wipe out Chiang Kai-shek's troops, hum! Let the people surnamed Jiang know how powerful our Gui army is!" Lin Hu always believed that the Gui army was the most powerful army in China, and he looked down on the Guangdong army at all.

Gui Jun?Isn't it synonymous with bandits?Lu Rongting, Shen Hongying, which one of them can fight a tough battle?Hong Baozi didn't know what to say when he saw Lin Hu's confident expression.

"Report, there are people from Fujian." Just as Hong Baozi and Lin Hu were discussing whether to fight or make peace, a small staff officer ran in.

"Who is there?" Hong Baozi was very happy to hear that someone from Fujian had come.

"Report to the commander-in-chief. The person here claims to be Wu Ziliang, the staff officer of the First Army of the Eastern Route Army. This time, he is here to stand up for their deputy commander Luo Yiqun."

When Hong Baozi heard this, he laughed and said, "Mr. Luo is getting more and more courageous now? Well, let that Wu Ziliang come in, brother Yinqing, you can stay and listen together."

Probably Hong Baozi's soldiers were frightened by the 6.16 coup last year, so this time Luo Yiqun didn't dare to come, but first sent a staff officer to fight the front station to see if Hong Baozi was still as fierce as before.

Seeing the shivering little fat man wiping his sweat in disobedience, Hong Baozi and Lin Hu wanted to laugh.Sure enough, people are divided into groups, and birds of a feather flock together. How strong can the people around Luo Laoshi be?

"Little fat man, don't be afraid to become like that, I, Hong Zhaolin, will not eat you." Hong Baozi and Lin Hu sat side by side on a big and soft sofa.

Wu Ziliang's legs were trembling, and his stiff smile was uglier than crying: "Yes, yes, yes, small fat meat is not tasty, it is not tasty."

"Hahahaha..." After hearing Wu Ziliang's answer, the two of them couldn't hold back any longer, and they leaned forward and backward laughing: "It's a pity that you don't tell jokes, you bastard, come to have a party meal. Tell me, What did Luo Yichen send you here for?"

"Back to the two commanders, this time Deputy Commander Luo is following the order of Commander Jiang to negotiate with the two commanders about the change of flag, and the small one is to speak out for Deputy Commander Luo." The little fat man His small eyes twinkled, and he looked at the two of them cautiously, as if he was looking at two big tigers.

"Hmph, let's change flags! Who is his surname Jiang? It's almost the same if you let Dapao Sun send someone to talk to us!" Lin Hu gave Wu Ziliang a sharp look.

"Yes, yes, the two commanders calm down, the two calm down. I will go back and ask Commander Jiang for instructions. Don't worry, Commander Jiang and Deputy Commander Luo will definitely send a telegram from the Prime Minister, but it will be delayed for some time." Wu Ziliang unexpectedly agreed to the two people's unreasonable demands.

In his heart, Baozi Hong cursed Lin Hu, who didn't know how serious he was, and his Gui army who thought he could fight well.But since Lin Hu opened his mouth, Baozi Hong couldn't open his mouth to refute his face, after all, he was the commander-in-chief!

"Okay then, go and come back quickly, we'll be waiting for you here! Also, tell Jiang, don't try to play tricks! Commander Lin and I won't let him do it!" Hong Baozi Helplessly waved Wu Ziliang to go back.

"Brother Yinqing, you are really serious. Sun Dapao will send representatives for this matter. When will this come and go? If the general announces his resignation, won't we have to drop the price?" Wu Ziliang left, Hong Baozi blamed Lin Hu.

Lin Hu stroked his chin and smiled, "How do I know that little fat man is so hunched? He almost peed his pants when he was scared? But brother Xiangchen, don't worry, he, Sun Dapao, dare not refuse our request, otherwise, hehe ! Just relying on Chiang Kai-shek's meager skills, how difficult is it to defeat his entire army?"

"That's right, these days we still have to rely on the guys in our hands. With our [-] troops, we can't go anywhere in the world? If Dapao Sun doesn't want us, at worst, we will send the troops to Jiangxi, and we will go with Marshal Wu."

The distance from Fuzhou to the Fujian-Guangdong border is more than 1923 kilometers. Given the general marching speed of the Chinese army at that time, it would have taken more than ten days.Chiang Kai-shek's First East Road Bandit Hunting Army set off from Fuzhou on New Year's Day in [-]. The next day in Fuqing County, the first division of the Guangdong Army had defected. In order to stabilize Hong Baozi and Lin Hu, Chiang Kai-shek sent Luo Yiqun to fight The two negotiate.But before leaving, how did Luo Yiqun see something was wrong?After discovering the conspiracy of Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo, Luo Yiqun refused to be this accomplice.So Luo Yaoguo changed his mind, thought of the fat little Wu Ziliang, and asked him to play the role of the lobbyist.

Since they were dispatched by Chen Jiongming to fight rebellion in Fujian, Hong Baozi and Lin Hu's divisions reluctantly moved to Raoping County on the border between Fujian and Guangdong. Sanrao Town, Raoping County.The two armies have been stationed in this way for nearly three months without crossing the border between Fujian and Guangdong.However, Sun Chuanfang and Zhou Yinren, who were also sent by Marshal Wu to seek rebellion, did not enter Fujian, but Chang De Shengshi once invaded Fujian, but was soon defeated by Xu Chongzhi, and fled back to Jiangxi in despair.

After Sun Yat-sen approved Xu Chongzhi and Chiang Kai-shek's division plan, the Kuomintang became more and more consolidated in Fujian. First, Lin Sen was ordered to give up the position of governor of Fujian to the veteran navy general Sa Zhenbing, and the governor of Fujian's navy immediately He became intimate with the Kuomintang and ignored Wu Peifu's order to rebel.Later, Xu Chongzhi pushed Wang Yongquan to be the governor of Fujian, and he himself was appointed as the supervisor of Fujian, specializing in supervising the affairs of the governor. Uh, anyway, this arrangement made Duan Qirui very satisfied. together.In the end, the Fujian manufacturing plant also resumed operation. Liu Shiyuan was found out from nowhere and became the general manager. The Shanghai native Lu Ming was temporarily left there to continue working as a deputy.

Under such circumstances, all the rebellious troops suddenly became silent, and no one wanted to go to Fujian to find their own misfortune, including of course Hong Baozi and Lin Hu. Lin Hu looked down on Chiang Kai-shek but was still a little afraid of Xu Chongzhi.

Chapter 0018 steamed buns tears of blood ([-])

After learning that Chen Jiongming was about to die, Chiang Kai-shek's First Army of Behavior on the East Road immediately accelerated its march, and it took about 8 days to reach Zhao'an County in southwestern Fujian near Guangdong.On the morning of January 15, Luo Yaoguo's No.1 brigade seized the Fenshui Pass on the Fujian-Guangdong border and the Huangshi Mountain line, opening the main throat from Fujian to Guangdong.

Hong Baozi, who had been waiting for Sun Yat-sen to send someone to surrender for the past few days, was suddenly beaten to the door of his house and occupied the door without any preparation. He panicked and called Sanrao Town to invite Lin Hu to come to discuss. On the other side, they hurriedly set up defenses at Wusong Mountain outside Huanggang Town.Huanggang Town is not a strong city, but a larger and prosperous commercial port, not even a county seat, without a decent city wall, and the Wusong Mountain outside the city is the only barrier.It is very unfavorable to face Chiang Kai-shek here. If you want to retreat to Chaozhou, you are afraid of being chased by the enemy, and the troops will be chased down directly.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Just as Hong Baozi was worrying about whether to fight or leave, the faint sound of cannons reached his ears, and he knew it was Wusongshan from the direction: "Damn, it's so fast! Jiang has grown up!" Hong Baozi cursed, and hurriedly took the guards to Wusong Mountain to supervise the battle.

"Long live Prime Minister Sun! Go!" This is Chiang Kai-shek's charge slogan for the first army of seeking thieves, er, not the traditional Cantonese army's "Hold your mother!" The one who is now commanding the attack of the thieves is just appointed as the former enemy Luo Yaoguo, the commander-in-chief, looked at the scene where the neat rows of officers and soldiers of the thief army launched a hand-to-hand charge under his orders, shouting the slogan "Long Live the Prime Minister", and felt like Napoleon.

Now Luo Yaoguo somewhat understands why Chiang Kai-shek had the nickname of Ningbo Napoleon back then. Well, it turned out that the style of fighting the Chinese Civil War in the 20s was not much different from that of Napoleon.Luo Yaoguo's command today is similar to that great emperor.The cannons were placed in the forward position. First, they bombarded violently. The 36 field rapid-fire guns fired thousands of high-explosive shells to cover the entire Wusong Mountain on the opposite side. Then the whole regiment launched a group charge. The soldiers seemed to be As in the early 19th century, neatly lined up square formations, carrying bayonet-mounted rifles, marched towards the enemy's positions in neat steps under the leadership of officers.A small number of snipers walked around the phalanx, looking for opportunities to snipe the machine gunners of the opposing officers.

When Hong Baozi came to the messy Wusong Mountain highland, the troops he stationed here had actually collapsed, because Hong Baozi did not order the troops to build fortifications on the mountain in advance, so when Luo Yaoguo ordered the shelling, Hong Baozi's entire brigade The army was completely exposed to artillery fire and suffered extremely heavy losses.

"Brothers! Hold on to me! Who dares to back off and kill Wushe!" Baozi Hong knew that things were not going well today, so he could only grit his teeth and stick to it. He knew that if he loosened his grip now, his troops would collapse immediately , did not persist until Lin Hu's reinforcements arrived.

"Ho, ho, ho, ho..." The sound of thunderous footsteps was getting closer and louder.Following the direction of the sound, Hong Baozi raised his binoculars to have a look, and immediately complained.The enemy actually invested four infantry regiments at once to fight the crowd tactics!Hong Baozi only has more than 1000 people on the high ground now, but the other party invested 7000 people at once!

Crowd tactics plus group charge is basically suicide after the popularization of automatic firearms and artillery, but the current Chinese civil war is still played in this way. Artillery or something a little farther away is not accurate. Except for machine guns, other automatic firearms have a short range. To die, and the bullets are not enough at all. A rifle can give you five bullets at most, and those soldiers who lack training will definitely not be able to hit anything, so this kind of group charge of the whole regiment and battalion is really the most practical way to fight.Out of humanitarian considerations, before the infantry charged, Luo Yaoguo still arranged a bombardment, which was considered purely prodigal by everyone, and ended up destroying half of Hong Baozi's brigade.

"Da da ta da..." All kinds of firearms on Hong Baozi's camp fired desperately, and rows of deadly bullets slanted towards the phalanx of the bandit army.
