Beiyang reactionaries

Looking at Xu Yongchang who looked puzzled, Duan Xun smiled.

It is indeed a good time to strike militarily, but not politically.Cheng Qian led the troops from Hunan, Guangdong and Guangxi to attack Yueyang, mainly Wang Jinjing's second division, Wang Ruxian's eighth division and Fan Guozhang's No.20 division who had retreated to Yueyang. Attached to the third mixed brigade, plus the 22nd brigade of the eleventh division.

None of these troops belonged to the Anhui Department.

The Second Division of Wang Jinjing, the Eighth Division of Wang Ruxian, the No.20 Division of Fan Guozhang, and the 22nd Brigade of the Eleventh Division are all direct troops of Feng Guozhang, while the Second Mixed Brigade of Zhili and the Third Mixed Brigade of Zhili belong to Cao Kun The troops under the Zhili Governor's Army.

In addition to these troops, Yueyang currently has another troop, which is Zhang Jingyao's No.14 Brigade of the Seventh Division.

Although this unit is an Anhui unit, the relationship between Zhang Jingyao and Duan Xun is not good at all.Although the two used to be classmates, they had a lot of trouble in Sichuan during the War to Protect the Nation.After that, the relationship between the two people dare not say that they were incompatible, but it was definitely not good.

Anyway, there are no Anhui army troops, and without his own friendly troops, Duan Xuncai would not attack.And Duan Qirui wouldn't like Duan Xun attacking now.How could Duan Qirui come out of the mountain again if he killed the French Guardian so easily now?

It was good to watch them fight.

"What about Hubei?"

"The situation is not good. They originally expected help from Hunan, but the Hunan-Guangdong-Guangxi Allied Forces have not gone north, making them very passive. Now Wu Peifu's third division has reached the border of Henan and Hubei, and will join forces with the Henan army. And Li Tiantian The [-]th Brigade of the Ninth Division of Li Tian's army broke away from Li Tian's troops and opposed Li Tian's claim of independence."

"What is the specific situation of each unit?"

"Wu Peifu served as the commander-in-chief of the first district, encircling and suppressing Li Tiancai's troops in Xiangyang. The fifth brigade of the third division is in Xiaogan, and it is estimated that it is preparing to go northward through Zhongxiang to attack Xiangyang. The sixth brigade of the third division is currently in Xinyang, led by Wu Qingtong The mixed brigade of the Henan Army was in Xinye, and Zhang Liansheng's 18th Brigade of the Ninth Division of the Hubei Army was in Laohekou (Guanghua). They formed a siege of Li Tiancai's Department in Xiangyang. Li Kuiyuan served as the commander of the second area, and the 35th Brigade of the Second Army The fourth brigade is in Yichang, the second brigade of Liu Yuelong is in Yidu, the [-]th brigade of the No. [-] division is in Wuhan, and the fourth brigade of Zhu Tingcan is in Dangyang, preparing to encircle Shixingchuan in Jingzhou."

Xu Yongchang marked the situation of each unit on the map.

Duan Xun looked at it carefully, and then said: "Li Tiancai's situation is very unfavorable. He is completely surrounded by people, and Xiangyang cannot be kept. Not to mention the Henan Army and the No.18 Brigade of the former Hubei Army, Wu Peifu's third division attacked. It can't be stopped. But Shi Xingchuan's situation is good."

"Yes, teacher. At present, the several troops besieging Shi Xingchuan's troops are in a messy system, not under each other's control, and they are attacking from multiple directions, lacking coordination. If Shi Xingchuan can concentrate his troops and attack one of the troops, it will be easy to break their alliance." Siege."

Xu Yongchang immediately expressed his opinion.

Indeed it is.

In a hurry, Wang Zhanyuan gathered all the surrounding troops in Hubei and besieged Shi Xingchuan.But these troops belong to different systems, and Li Kuiyuan, the commander of the [-]th Division, really can't command them.

If Shi Xingchuan is smart, this encirclement can be broken.

"kindness."

"However, teacher, you may be disappointed. Shi Xingchuan divided his army into several troops, and he has already fortified every step of the way in Jingzhou."

"Fool."

Duan Xun watched Xu Yongchang introduce Shi Xingchuan's defense, and couldn't help scolding Shi Xingchuan.This idiot only has more troops in his hands, so he defends everywhere like this.At this time, the best way should not be to seize a point, and then concentrate on attacking the opponent.

In this way, defending everywhere is tantamount to being passively beaten everywhere.

After studying in the military academy for so many years, I read all the books in the stomach of a dog.If you study Chinese history, you won't be fighting such useless battles.

"It seems that there is no suspense here in Hubei, it's just a matter of time. The Yasukuni Army in Hubei should not be able to make a big wave. Send electricity to the Fourth Division and ask Wan Xuancai to lead Liu Mingzhao's (Liu Bocheng) Seventh Brigade, Division Headquarters Guard Regiment, and Baggage Regiment , using the Yangtze River waterway, and immediately set out to station in Yichang. Let him use the banner of the Yangtze River Upstream Security Command and appoint Wan Xuancai as the deputy commander of the Yangtze River Upstream Security. After arriving in Yichang, he will occupy Yichang, and Yichang will be Liu Mingzhao's seventh brigade in the future station."

"Yes."

"Let Wang Tianzhen serve as the deputy commander of the Fourth Division, and continue to be responsible for the expansion of the Fourth Division and the reorganization of the Cun Xingqi Eighth Brigade."

"Yes."

"Any new battle situation in Hunan and Hubei must be reported 24 hours anytime, anywhere."

"Yes."

"Has Tang Shengzhi arrived yet?"

"It's here this morning, I'll let him rest first."

"Let him come over later, I want to talk to him."

"Yes."

145 Two Lakes War 2

"Meng Xiao (Tang Shengzhi), long time no see. It's been over a year."

"Teacher, it's one year and three months."

Tang Shengzhi answered loudly.

It has been more than four years since I followed Duan Xun in the second year of the Republic of China.It was also Duan Xun who followed Duan Xun when he started his family in Western Henan.From being a small platoon leader at that time, he has been a brigade-level cadre in Duan Xun's department in four years.

He had been the head of the Sixth Division of the Southwest Frontier Defense Army before, and Duan Xun's troops had been expanding over the past year, so Tang Shengzhi became the brigade commander of the Sixth Division as a matter of course.However, within a few months of being the brigade commander, he was called to Chongqing by Duan Xun.

"sit."

Tang Shengzhi had served as a battalion commander and adjutant for Duan Xun.Moreover, he can be regarded as Duan Xun's student, and his relationship with Duan Xun is unusual, and he can also be regarded as the direct descendant of Duan Xun's direct line of officers.So Tang Shengzhi was very happy to see Duan Xun again.

"Yes."

"Meng Xiao, you are a graduate of the Hunan Army Primary School, aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Do you still have any contact with the students in the Hunan Army Primary School, and do you have any contact with some officers of the Hunan Army?"

"Not many connections. Just some connections with some of them."

Tang Shengzhi didn't understand why Duan Xun asked these questions.

Tang Shengzhi studied in Hunan Army Primary School in his early years, then entered Wuchang Army Middle School, and finally entered Baoding Military Academy.Since Hunan Army Primary School was opened, there have been more than 500 graduates, and it is impossible for Tang Shengzhi to know all of them.

Moreover, although Tang Shengzhi is from Hunan, he has never served in the Hunan Army.So it has nothing to do with the Hunan Army.

He is only associated with a few close friends.

"Who is there?"

"Teacher, you know a few of them."

"Who?"

"Li Pinxian and Liu Xing."

"Li Pinxian? Liu Xing?"

Duan Xun thought for a while and said, "Li Pinxian, do I know him? He is?"

"Teacher, although Li Pinxian is not my classmate in Hunan Army Primary School, he was my classmate in Wuchang Army Middle School and went to Baoding Military Academy with me. In fact, he also listened to the teacher's class in Baoding. The teacher may not be impressed. .”

"So Li Pinxian can be considered my student."
