Luo Yiqun smiled slightly, and winked at Shunzi to send him out: "Fuwen, it's a good thing that the second uncle came to you." Luo Yiqun took out a map and spread it on the table.

"Where is this map?" Luo Yaoguo recognized it as a military map, but he didn't know where it was.Luo Yiqun was the chief of staff of the Northern Expedition Army, and he had many maps in his hand.

"This is a map of Fuzhou. The commander-in-chief has made a plan to send two armies, Huang Dawei and Li Fulin, to raid Fuzhou to steal Li Houji's lair. You also have to participate in this battle. This is a rare opportunity! This is the map of Fuzhou I found from the General Staff. Look here." Luo Yiqun pointed to a bridge on the Minjiang River and said: "This is the Hongshan Bridge. When the time comes, you must find a way to win the task of attacking the Hongshan Bridge. Even if you fail, you must try to participate in the attack, you know? Cross the bridge It is the west gate of Fujian, and outside the west gate of Fujian is the Fujian Manufacturing Factory, which was the arsenal founded by Zuo Zongtang, and now has a rifle factory, a machine gun factory, a bullet factory and a mint, and there is also a smokeless gunpowder factory on the other side of the Minjiang River.”

"Uncle, do you want my nephew to take advantage of the chaos and get some money?" Luo Yaoguo stared intently at the map, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Remember, if you are the first to enter the arsenal, hide a little and then divide it up with other ministries, otherwise you won't have such a good mouth in one battalion. Also, this is Li Houji's military governor's mansion , Li Houji has accumulated quite a lot of savings for many years. This time we raided Fuzhou, if you can capture Li Houji, you will hand him over to me, you know? Prime Minister Sun has mortgaged all the garden houses in Shanghai to counterattack Guangzhou this time. The bank. If you can knock out a few million from Li Houji, it will also relieve the Prime Minister a lot of burden." Speaking of this, Luo Yiqun's eye sockets were slightly moist.

"To capture Li Houji, it is impossible to go to the Governor's Mansion. Li Houji is not stupid. He will definitely run away when he sees someone calling. If our army wants to raid Fujian, it should go to Tongkou Mountain in the north, and then attack Hongshan Bridge. The arsenal is just to the east of Hongshan Bridge. That is to say, Li Houji will not leave the north gate and west gate of Fujian. If he wants to run, it should be the south gate. If I can win the arsenal, Commander Huang will definitely not let me go to the city of Fujian again. So, I just took this opportunity to lead the team to the south gate and wait for the rabbit. If Li Houji is caught, how about hiding him first?" Luo Yaoguo took a red and blue pencil to write and draw on the military map, outlining the general The direction of attack and the possible escape route of Li Houji.

"Well, you can handle these things according to your own needs, and I will leave this map to you. Remember to pay attention to safety, and don't rush too hard. You can just grab the oil and water in the arsenal, Li Houji, try your best Find a way to catch me, so don’t rob the military governor’s mansion, all the money is stored in foreign banks these days, the key is to catch people.” It seems that Sun Yat-sen’s economic situation is really bad, so that Luo Yiqun turned against him. He repeatedly told his nephew to find a way to catch Li Houji, a fat sheep.

Not a quarter of an hour after my uncle left, Huang Dawei's order was passed down, and the Northern Expeditionary Army's first route immediately moved south. Of course, the specific direction must be kept secret.According to Huang Dawei's order, the Luo Yaoguo Supplementary Battalion was temporarily assigned to Qiu Hongjun, the third commander of the first route. The Huang Department had a total of three commanders, equivalent to three regiments.Qiu Hongjun's third command headquarters is the weakest among the three commanders. There are only two battalions, Gao Hailan and Hu Jiabi, so Luo Yaoguo's supplementary battalion is temporarily incorporated, so that Qiu Hongjun temporarily has three battalions under his command. More than 1000 troops.

Qiu Hongjun is from Huangpi, Hubei, and he is from the same hometown as Huang Dawei. He was born in the Artillery Department of Jiangbian Academy in Hubei and the Jiangwu Hall in Nanjing. He is a veteran member of the alliance. He is 44 years old this year and has a mustache similar to Huang Dawei.

"Luo Yaoguo, the commander of the first supplementary battalion of the Northern Expedition Army, was ordered to report to Commander Qiu." Luo Yaoguo brought [-] people from the supplementary battalion to the gathering place at the South Gate of Gutian, found the location of Qiu Hongjun's troops, and hurried up to round up.

"Oh, it's the auxiliary text." Qiu Hongjun nodded at Luo Yaoguo with a dull expression.They also have a mustache, which looks so arrogant and domineering when it stays on Huang Dawei's face, but it looks honest when it grows on Qiu Hongjun's face.

"Commander, everyone is here, can we go?" Wu Han, Qiu Hongjun's chief staff officer, saw that Luo Yao's state camp had arrived, and reminded him that he could go.Wu Han is from Jiangsu, graduated from Army University, and was classmates with Guo Songling and Li Jishen, two generals of the Republic of China.From this, it can be seen that Huang Dawei's subordinates are full of talents in terms of diplomas. Of course, the most outstanding of them is Luo Yaoguo, American West Point!Even Huang Dawei was a little jealous.

"The whole army set off, the marching order is Gao Hailan's first battalion as the leader, Luo Yaoguo's supplementary battalion as the second team, the command regiment headquarters and Hu Jiabi's second battalion as the rear team." Chief of Staff Wu Han loudly issued the departure order.

"Everyone is there, let's go together." Wang Bao with a loud voice gave the order to set off immediately after seeing the first battalion move out. After giving the order, he still followed Luo Yaoguo to play the role of messenger and bodyguard.

The marching sequence of the supplementary battalion was Wu Ziliang's first company, Gao Shaojie's third company, the battalion headquarters, and Li Shunen's second company.Wu Ziliang was the smartest among the five brothers, so it was more reassuring to let him walk in the front. Li Shunen was a man of few words, but after getting along with Luo Yaoguo, he felt that he was more resolute, so the role of guard was handed over to him.Gao Shaojie is dull and lacks majesty, so he is really not suitable for leading troops, but Luo Yaoguo has no one available, so he is placed in the middle, and he can take over the command at any time if there is a problem.

"Third brother, do you think there is any danger in our attack on Fuzhou this time?" Wang Bao discussed the battle situation with Luo Yaoguo while marching.

"What danger would there be in fighting a guy who let the enemy walk slowly on his own territory for 20 days without knowing it?" Luo Yaoguo shook his head lightly at this point: "The question we have to consider now is how to catch the enemy." When it comes to him, he's very shrewd when it comes to making money."

Chapter 0007 raid on Fuzhou ([-])

Gutian is the gateway of Fuzhou. Going southeast from Gutian is the main road leading to Fuzhou. Shuikou Town is blocked in the middle of this main road. This time Xu Chongzhi and Wang Yongquan will jointly attack Shuikou and defend Shuikou Town. Li Houji's main force is Tang Guomo Brigade.

Gutian bypassed Cuiping Lake to the east and then walked southward for three or four hundred miles to outflank Fuzhou. In this direction, Xu Chongzhi sent two armies, one led by Sun Benrong to attack Baisha Town behind Shuikou Town in a roundabout way. Duan Tang Guomo's back road.The other way is about two brigades under the command of Huang Dawei and Li Fulin, where Luo Yaoguo is now. The purpose is to raid Fuzhou and directly copy Li Houji's lair.

Thousands of troops walked slowly for five days on this three- to four-hundred-mile mountain road, but there was no encounter or resistance along the way. The march of the army was as easy as an outing.It was not until 10 pm on October 11 that the third regiment of the Luo Yaoguo Supplementary Battalion passed through Tongling, the last natural barrier in Fuzhou, and encountered Li Houji's troops in Tongkou Village at the foot of Tongling Mountain.It is not known whether Li Houji had already noticed the actions of the Northern Expeditionary Army, or whether the troops sent to reinforce Shuikou happened to be stationed in Tongkou.

"Commander Qiu ordered the supplementary battalion to quickly capture the highlands of Lantau Island." Chief Staff Officer Wu Han's strong Jiangnan accent came from a distance.Luo Yaoguo looked back and saw that Wu Han was being carried on a galloping horse. Because the supplementary battalion was temporarily recruited and the staff members of Qiu Hongjun's regiment were not familiar with it, Wu Han had no choice but to go there himself.

"Understood, please tell Director Wu to go back and tell Commander Qiu, let him rest assured that the supplementary battalion will complete the task." Luo Yaoguo gave a military salute to Wu Han from a distance, and then ordered the troops to march towards a small hill in the north of Tongkou Village.

Lantau Island is said to be a mountain, but in fact it is just a small mound about 200 meters high. About a company of Li Houji's troops are stationed on it.

"Brothers! Come with me! Kill!" It was Luo Yaoguo's ally Wang Bao who personally led the charge. A thunderous roar really boosted the morale of the recruits. All about 40 riflemen in a company followed Wang Bao The first charge was launched from behind, and behind them were three snipers including Chen Tian. According to the supplementary battalion's tactics, the tentative charge of the riflemen was just to lure the enemy's machine guns to fire so that the snipers could destroy them.

"Tap, tap, tap..." Sure enough, there was a machine gun!Hearing the sound of the machine gun, Luo Yaoguo didn't have a relaxed expression on his face, and his thick eyebrows gradually moved together.

Through the binoculars, Luo Yaoguo saw the sound of gunshots, and Wang Bao jumped into the grass on the hillside and disappeared. I wonder if he was injured?Most of the forty recruits were lying on the ground, firing their guns indiscriminately, and it looked like they were wasting bullets.The opponent's position was also wasting bullets meaninglessly, and the crackling battle between the two armies was quite lively.

"Crack, crack." With two particularly crisp gunshots, the opponent's machine gun stopped abruptly. It seemed that the snipers of the supplementary battalion had begun to show their power. At this time, the distance between the two sides was almost 200 meters.At this distance, the rifles in the hands of both sides are actually not very accurate. Only snipers with particularly good marksmanship and selected rifles and bullets of relatively good quality can exert their power.

"Okay!" Looking through the binoculars, Luo Yaoguo saw an enemy officer with a beard being shot, and couldn't help shouting: "Now! Brothers, follow me! The first one to reach the top of the mountain will be rewarded with 300 yuan!"

"Kill!" There was a sound of killing, and more than 200 people from the supplementary battalion rushed forward, launching a disorderly group charge.Fortunately, the three snipers were very competent in controlling the enemy's machine gun, and anyone who tried to get close to it would lose their lives in the shortest possible time.

Undoubtedly, Luo Yaoguo's supplementary battalion is definitely a rabble, but the opponent's company is also not much better. This is a contest between two rabble. The battalion's battle to capture Lantau Island went fairly smoothly, except that two people were killed by the enemy's machine gun at the beginning, and five or six people were accidentally injured when they charged because the grenade was thrown too close. In addition, three people were killed by rifle bullets. Uh, as for It was not clear which side Luo Yaoguo was beaten to death.There were no casualties in the final stabbing, because when the supplementary battalion rushed into the enemy's position, they quickly surrendered their guns.In this battle, the supplementary battalion killed 5 people and injured 6 people, 5 of whom were slightly injured.Nine opponents died, 13 were injured, and 65 were captured. Among them, the opponent's company commander and three platoon leaders were all killed by snipers from the supplementary battalion because they wanted to personally control the machine guns!That's why they collapse so quickly.

"Third brother! Third brother! It's gone! It's gone!" The one who yelled was Wang Bao, the deputy battalion commander who had been cleverly hiding in the grass and was unscathed. It seems that he survived more than ten years of life and death For some reason, this guy is definitely not as brave as he looks.

"Third brother, I handed over a machine gun, fifty rifles, all of which are good guns, and four short guns, with thousands of rounds of bullets!" Wang Bao is now like an accountant counting sums of money one after another. The profit of the pen, grinning and laughing while counting.

"Brother, go and see if those captives can be used, and those who are willing to stay will be broken up and organized into each company, but don't give them guns yet." Luo Yaoguo's tone was also full of excitement. This was the first time he had fought in a war in his life. !Uh, there was one more time before, that was the battle against the defected Cantonese First Division, but that was another Luo Yaoguo's participation.

After this battle, the supplementary battalion has 150 long guns, [-] short guns, and one water-cooled machine gun, which can be said to have greatly expanded its strength.According to Luo Yaoguo's knowledge, the salary standards of various warlords in China now do not count head counts but count guns, as many guns as there are pay, that's why Wang Bao was successful just now.

After conquering Lantau Island, Luo Yaoguo did not order the troops to take advantage of the situation to attack Tongkou Village, but let the troops build some fortifications and stationed on Lantau Island.Now Luo Yaoguo is a small warlord, so thinking about problems is also the pattern of a warlord.He has already done his best today, so the battle against Tongkou Village should be fought by the other two battalions as usual, and Luo Yaoguo wants to preserve his strength.

The battle on October 10 was just a one-man show of Luo Yaoguo's supplementary battalion family. They used two charges to finish off a company in less than half an hour. This kind of record is enough to make Huang Dawei's officers look at him, an American returnee, with admiration. .The battle to attack Lantau Island started at 11:11 p.m. on the 6th and ended at 30:7 p.m., when Hu Jiabi's Second Battalion took over the defense of Lantau Island at about 7:[-] p.m.

After dinner, Luo Yaoguo called a few brothers to discuss tomorrow's arrangements.

"Third Brother, according to what the captives told me, Li Houji's main force has already moved to Shuikou Town. Now there are only about one brigade of troops from the Supervisory Guards in Fuzhou City. Among them, there are three pistol battalions responsible for Li Houji's safety. About 1000 people from the next three battalions were sent to Tongkou to deal with us." Wang Bao looked fierce, so the job of interrogating the prisoners was left to him.

Luo Yaoguo nodded in satisfaction and asked, "Do they know the situation of Hongshuiqiao Arsenal?"

Wang Bao replied proudly: "The question came out. There is only one company of guards in the arsenal, and there are still some mountain roads from our Tongling to the arsenal." Speaking of this, Wang Bao deliberately lowered his voice: "We Tomorrow, I can find a job as a security guard and search the mountain, and secretly go over the mountain through the path to seize the arsenal."

"I'm afraid Qiu Hongjun won't agree." The taciturn Li Shunen lowered his head and reminded him gently.

"Fifth Brother, what can you do?" Luo Yaoguo knew that the fat little Wu Ziliang must have an idea when he saw the smirk on Wu Ziliang's face.

Wu Ziliang blinked his small eyes and said with a light smile: "Hehe, I have a solution, but it needs some funds. I don't know if the third brother has it?"

"How much do you want?" When Luo Yaoguo heard that he wanted money, he was very straightforward, and he didn't ask the little fat man what he was going to do with it.

"500 yuan." Wu Ziliang opened his fat hand and shook it.

"Shunzi, go and get six small yellow croakers for Lord Wu." Small yellow croakers are one or two gold bars, the current price is less than 100 yuan, and six pieces cost 80 yuan.Luo Yaoguo knew that the little fat man was greedy for cheap things, so he loosened his hands on purpose.

"Third brother, just watch it, little brother, I'll come as soon as I go." The little fat man who took the gold bar narrowed his eyes, and immediately set off for Tongtongzi.In fact, this little fat man really has a way. For some reason, he got married to Wu Han, Qiu Hongjun's chief staff officer?One of them is from Wujin, Jiangsu, and the other is from Hong Kong, Guangdong. The ones who can't hit the eight poles are now relatives.Since they are relatives, and there is a pavement of gold that everyone loves, Wu Ziliang soon got an order signed by Qiu Hongjun, asking them to search the hilly area southeast of Tongkou tomorrow.

"Order the troops to set off at two o'clock tomorrow morning. There is about a 10-kilometer mountain road from our place to Hongshan Bridge. I estimate that our army will attack at dawn tomorrow. The enemy will definitely be defeated in four or five hours at most. It will take us seven hours." After walking the 7-kilometer mountain road and capturing the arsenal, brother, find a few captives who are willing to lead the way, and give them 10 oceans each, let them work hard, and then give 20 yuan after the task is completed.

Our task tomorrow is very important. Seizing the arsenal is only the first step. After capturing the arsenal, we will find a way to get more weapons, and then transport them to the other side of the river through the Hongshan Bridge to find a place to hide. I guess Li Houji will definitely run away if he can't defend Fuzhou. .His only way to escape is to go to Zhongzhou Island from the South Gate, and then leave Fujian by water. We will wait for him at the South Gate.By the way, brother, you have to work harder and ask if anyone among the prisoners knows Li Houji. We must not let this Lord of Wealth go. "

Chapter 0008 raid on Fuzhou ([-])

Because of the order, the supplementary battalion left the temporary station in Tongling generously at two o'clock in the morning the next day, and quietly sneaked into the woods in the southeast of Tongling under the leadership of several Li Houji captives.About 2 hours later, the offensive and defensive battle of Tongkou under the personal command of Huang Dawei will begin.There will be a fierce battle between Huang Dawei's elite soldiers of about 5000 and Li Houji's Shi Yanyang on the front line of Tongkou, but Luo Yaoguo's supplementary battalion has nothing to do with it. Luo Yaoguo's current goal is the arsenal by the Hongshan Bridge, and Li Houji Thick basic people.

"Papa..." There was a faint sound of gunfire in the distance.

Luo Yaoguo looked at the place where the gunshot was fired, and murmured: "It seems that the fight has already started, I hope Li Houji's people can hold on for a while longer."

"Third brother, don't worry, we have already walked about 10 miles, and we will be able to reach Hongshui Bridge in two hours at most." The person who said this was a burly man wearing Li Houji's military uniform, He is Wang Bao, and it was Wu Ziliang's idea to dress him like this.Because Wang Bao is from Shandong, and many officers and soldiers of the Beiyang warlords are from Shandong, so Wang Bao's task today is to deceive the gate of the arsenal.As long as the gate of the arsenal is coaxed open, it will be impossible to defend it with a company that is not full of personnel.

"Hehe, big brother, it will be up to you later. If you can make money to open the gate of the arsenal, how to supplement the battalion can be regarded as a real launch. With my uncle's way, there is no problem in expanding into a regiment. When the time comes You are now a lieutenant colonel, and if you can expand into a brigade, you will be a colonel and deputy brigade commander!" Luo Yaoguo smiled when he said this, Wang Bao is a colonel and deputy brigade commander, isn't he a major general and brigade commander?This guy with connections is such a jerk!

"Third Brother, that's Fuzhou City." Gao Shaojie's dull voice pulled Luo Yaoguo back from his imagination, and pointed to the tall and majestic ancient city wall in the distance. In Fuzhou City, I must go to the best restaurant and sleep with the most beautiful bitch." Uh, what a lofty ideal!

"Fuzhou is here, so the other side should be Hongshan Bridge and the arsenal?" Luo Yaoguo raised his binoculars and searched in the southwest direction, and he saw several tall chimneys.

"Order the troops, speed up, brother, you and the pistol team will get ready, it will be up to you later. Be careful, there are high officials waiting to do it!" Luo Yaoguo patted Wang Bao's arm lightly, and finally told After a while.

At around 10 a.m. on October 12, a team of pistols wearing the uniforms of the Li Hou Christian Guards suddenly came to the gate of the Fujian manufacturing plant on the edge of Hongshan Bridge.
