Beiyang reactionaries

"Yes."

"Liu Xiang."

"arrive."

"Your [-]th Regiment is stationed on the east side of Naxi."

"Yes."

"I'm sure you all know how to build a defensive position, and you've all been trained. Don't be foolish enough to form a long line of snakes. I want to see trenches that are deep enough and deep enough to form enough crossfire. "

"Yes."

fight.

Duan Xun really didn't want to fight with the National Defense Army, because that would be a bad reputation.But if the National Defense Army really messed with Duan Xun, and they really wanted their own territory, then Duan Xun didn't care what history said about him.

It should be fought or it should be fought.

They will only attack from other places if they hurt the National Defense Army.

Anyway, it was not them, the National Guards, who really made Yuan Shikai abdicate.It is Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang who are currently paying attention to the situation in the north.If the National Defense Army really wants to fight against him, Duan Xun will let the National Defense Army see the strength of the troops he has built in the past two years.And Duan Xun had a little expectation in his heart.Duan Xun has been suppressing bandits since he led the army, and has never fought against the regular army of this era.

Duan Xun really wants to see who wins and who loses when he fights against the regular army of this era.Especially fighting against elite southwest troops like the Dian Army is also a way to train your own troops.

"Fang Dingying."

"arrive."

"You should know where to put the artillery."

"know."

cannon.

When Duan Xun's troops entered Sichuan, there were more than 75 Krupp 30mm mountain-mounted light guns, half of which were bought by Duan Xun when he was in western Henan.Of course, it is said that it is a Krupp cannon. In fact, except for six or seven cannons, the other cannons are all imitations of Krupp cannons.This includes the 31-type mountain cannon imitated by Japan, and the 14-fold 75mm rear-loading tube-retracting mountain cannon imitated by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau.It's just that they are all called Krupp cannons.

It is also equipped with more than 57 Gruson 30mm cannons.When Duan Xun was the commander of the No.20 Ninth Mixed Brigade, the number of artillery was already comparable to that of a division of the Beiyang Army.

Unlike other troops.

Other troops found it troublesome to enter Sichuan, so some heavy weapons were not brought in.But Duan Xun knew that there was going to be a war this time, so he brought all the heavy weapons to Sichuan.And in the few months after entering Sichuan, ammunition has been sent to him one after another.

It was Duan Xun who gave Jiang Hongyu good orders before he left Yuxi.

Otherwise, you can't fight at all.In this broken road in Sichuan, the Beijing government wants to replenish logistics supplies. It will take two months for the supplies to arrive in the army from Beijing.Since the outbreak of the War to Protect the Nation, the first batch of supplies delivered by Beijing to the Beiyang Army that entered Sichuan have not yet reached Sichuan, and are still on their way to Sichuan.

If Duan Xun hadn't hoarded supplies himself, the battle would have been impossible to fight.

Fortunately, I know the history, so I started hoarding supplies early on.Duan Xun in Luzhou has plenty of ammunition.And this time, the artillery battalion of the Second Division of the Sichuan Army and their arsenal were brought in, which greatly supplemented the troops.At present, Duan Xun has nearly a hundred cannons in his hands, and every 29th mixed brigade has an artillery brigade.

"Tang Shengzhi."

"arrive."

"Your machine gun brigade deploys the [-]th regiment and accepts the command of the [-]th regiment."

"Yes."

Machine Gun Brigade.

After years of development, Duan Xun also has more than 100 light and heavy machine guns.Other troops didn't pay much attention to machine guns. Duan Xun used money, favors, and everything he could use to get back a lot of machine guns.And how to use the machine gun is something Duan Xun's machine gun officer discusses all day long.After two years, how to use it has been compiled into a booklet.

Among the current Chinese army, no one can surpass Duan Xun's army in terms of the use of machine guns and how to cooperate with other troops.

Naxi.

Many places here are very narrow, and many places are condescending.Of course, there are rivers around Naxi, so if you want to take down Naxi, there are many attacking points.But equally every offensive point is not so easy to win.

Naxi is a typical place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Duan Xun now has nearly a hundred cannons and hundreds of machine guns here, plus Li Jishen's 67th Regiment, Liu Xiang's [-]th Regiment, the reorganized Xiong Xiangsheng Brigade, and Duan Yong's army in Luzhou. Duan Xun put on tens of thousands of people.

It is more than the entire First Army of the National Defense Army, that is, the total number of Yunnan Army troops led by Cai E.

"Duan Yong."

"arrive."

"Your job is to stabilize the situation in Luzhou. There is a war on the front line, and I don't want any riots in the rear. If anyone wants to disturb the order of the city, they should be caught and shot on the spot. Be sure to hold on."

"Yes."

"Also, hurry up to recruit troops."

"Yes."

"It seems that Naxi has already begun to build a defensive position."

Dong Hongxun and Liu Cunhou personally came to the front line to observe the situation in Naxi, and found that Naxi's troops had already begun to deploy defense lines.So the two of them went back immediately to discuss what to do.

"Teacher, now is a great opportunity, it would be a pity to give up."

Chen Limen, the head of the Second Division of the Sichuan Army, spoke first.

The Second Division of the Sichuan Army was the worst.Being suppressed by Chen Heng was very serious. It was originally a very powerful army of the Sichuan Army.But after the downsizing, although there were two brigades, the number of them was very small. One brigade had only about [-] people, and the entire division had no more than [-] people, which was the establishment of a mixed brigade of the Beiyang Army.

To make matters worse, a brigade of the Second Division of the Sichuan Army directly called people into the pot in Naxi.Moreover, after Liu Cunhou became the commander-in-chief of Qingxiang in southern Sichuan, he made a lot of hard work in Luzhou, Naxi, and Yongning, and quietly bought arms in order to strengthen the strength of the Second Division of the Sichuan Army.But before it's used, it's all cheaper for Duan Xun.

Moreover, the annihilation of the Naxi troops disrupted all Liu Cunhou's plans.

Liu Cunhou originally wanted to retreat, but after coming to Naxi and his brigade, he suddenly attacked and took Luzhou.But now a brigade is gone.Although Liu Cunhou recruited more than 1000 people by relying on his appeal here, it was of no use.

The Beiyang army entering Sichuan is now short of weapons and ammunition.

But the problems of the National Defense Army are more serious.The logistical problems of the Beiyang Army were due to transportation problems.It is too difficult to transport supplies into Sichuan from other places.Not only does Sichuan have no modern means of transportation such as railways, but the roads in the territory are also very difficult, and the only thing that can be used is shipping.However, shipping is affected by many aspects, and it is not so easy to ship things by shipping.In addition, after the war to protect the country began, all kinds of militia groups and bandits along the way, wearing the hat of protecting the country, robbed these things.So logistics transportation is very difficult.

The Beiyang Army is typical. I have good things, but I can't get them in.They are all cursing the damn traffic in Sichuan.

But the situation with the National Defense Army is the other way around.

Although their transportation is difficult, it is far better than the Beiyang Army.But their problem is that they really have no money.The National Defense Army is what I can transport in, but I have nothing to transport in.Yunnan was not a wealthy province in the first place. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the annual finances had to be subsidized by the central government.

But since the Revolution of [-], the Beiyang government and Yunnan have not dealt with it, so how can they give you money.Therefore, Yunnan really has no money to support so many troops.In fact, Yunnan's finances were already on the verge of bankruptcy.The War to Protect the Nation broke out, and the army expanded to tens of thousands of troops. How could there be enough military expenditures.What's more, the national defense army needed more money to fight all the way north.

Cai E led the Yunnan army to cry.
