Crossing the Rise of Special Forces

When everyone heard Fang Tianlong's report, they found out that the enemy had retreated?

The atmosphere that was cloudy just now suddenly cleared up.

Xu Yan also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If this continued, this regiment would definitely mutiniate! There were strong enemies in front, no reinforcements in the back, and no ammunition or food! At this moment, the north bank of the Lao La River was a dead end for Xu Yan!

Xu Yan even thought about what Hu Ruoxue would do if he couldn't go back? Would she forget about him and find a good family to marry in two years? The thought of Hu Ruoxue becoming someone else's wife and calling someone else's husband woke Xu Yan up from his dream!

I thought to myself, Ruoxue, you have to wait for me to come back! But don't get married!

"Captain, what should we do next? If the enemy in front retreats, should we continue to advance?" Deputy Captain Wang Zhuguo ran over excitedly and asked.

When Xu Yan heard what he said, he rolled his eyes at him fiercely, as if he was looking at an idiot.

"Are you mad? Forward? Where to? There are only more than 2,000 of us, and we are still short of food and clothing. What's the point of moving forward? Are you going to Bincheng to beg for food? You think it's shabby, but I do! Let's go home! Retreat with me!" Xu Yan sprayed at Wang Zhuguo in a bad mood.

"Immediately send a telegram to the Fengtian Headquarters and the General Staff, and forward it to the Young Marshal to inform them of the current situation of our unit. Make it sound miserable! Act pitiful! Cry poor, do you understand?"

"In addition, I have to explain the position of my unit! My 122nd Regiment swears to defend the honor of the Dongning Army to the death! We will never be the National Protection Army!" Xu Yan continued.

The staff officer looked confused and lowered his head to write down the message. He then plucked up the courage to ask a stupid question: "Captain, are you going to send it according to your exact words?"

"Yes, just send it out as I said!" Xu Yan said carelessly.

The telegraph operator standing nearby grinned after hearing this. He believed that the headquarters would also grin when they received his message.

"Fang Tianlong leads two platoons of the direct battalion to set off first, and stay 30 miles ahead of the troops to conduct reconnaissance and advance forward. Report any situation at any time."

"Three battalions should withdraw from their positions at a time, cross the river and follow me back to Fengtian!" Xu Yan gave the orders one by one.

Fengtian was in chaos at the moment. Although Tang Yangjing's troops were blocked by Cheng Jun in the Tajin area and were advancing very slowly, Guo Tianyun, who posed the greatest threat, was like a magician, and brought the Third Army to the city of Fengtian! Now they were only a few kilometers away from Fengtian!

The streets of Fengtian were full of fleeing people! But where was the refuge without war where people could live and work in peace?

On his way from Laola River to Fengtian, Xu Yan encountered wave after wave of refugees. Looking at these people who were carrying large and small bags and looking in a hurry, Xu Yan felt secretly worried.

Such a beautiful land was shattered into pieces. The people had no place to live. In addition to fleeing their homes to avoid the war, they also had to be careful of bandits on the road! Xu Yan's face became more and more gloomy along the way. As a commander of thousands of troops, Guo Tianyun was committing a sin!

Xu Yan knew very well what Guo Tianyun was thinking. If he won the war and drove Marshal Yu Lin out of office, he would just have Marshal Guo! People who launched a civil war without caring about the lives of the people were destined to be abandoned by the people!

At this time, people could only leave Fengtian City but not enter. The people below were originally preparing to completely blockade Fengtian because Guo Tianyun's vanguard troops had already appeared outside Fengtian City, but Marshal Yu Lin did not agree.

"Let the people leave the city! Don't block the city gates unless it is absolutely necessary. Let the people who want to leave the city perhaps have a chance to survive. Why trap them in this Fengtian city?" Marshal Yu Lin looked at the noisy streets of Fengtian outside in a daze.

Originally, Yu Lin also wanted to arrange for his family to leave Fengtian, but then he thought that if his family had run away, who else would be willing to defend Fengtian? In the end, there was no sign of evacuation from the Marshal's Mansion, and everything remained the same!

The one who was most upset at this time was the young marshal. He truly experienced what it meant to be in the middle of a pot while someone else was cooking for him!

The young marshal didn't notice the rebellion, Guo Tianyun didn't tell him a word, and he didn't know a word about the power transmission! But these bastards actually used his name to pull tiger skins, and raised the banner to say that they support the young marshal! How can they treat people so badly!

The young marshal was so angry! Who the hell are you, Guo Tianyun! I treated you sincerely, but you tricked me to death! Although the old marshal didn't say anything, everyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on, but ordinary people didn't know. A group of reporters gathered at the door of his mansion and wanted to talk about his own views on the matter!

Lei Zhenting did something even more ruthless and directly replaced all his guards. The young marshal didn't want to argue anymore. He knew Lei Zhenting very well. If he questioned Lei Zhenting about this matter, he would be asking for trouble! Lei Zhenting could come up with a hundred excuses to deal with him, and outsiders would definitely think that they were for the good of the young marshal.

Now the young marshal is under house arrest in disguise!

What's even more hateful is that Guo Tianyun asked people to shout in front of the battle line all day long to support the young marshal! Request to have a dialogue with the young marshal!

The young marshal can do nothing now. The Dongning Army no longer informs him of any decision. He can only vent his dissatisfaction by drinking alone in his mansion!

Lei Zhenting was surprised when he received the telegram from the 122nd Regiment. All the big shots had completely forgotten about this regiment!

Now without the support of the Kwantung Army, Wu Junsheng has also become honest. Although Fengtian is in disaster now, how to choose between Marshal Yu Lin and Guo Tianyun? As long as Wu Junsheng is not a fool, he will not make the wrong choice! Without the distraction of Heilongjiang Province, Fengtian's pressure is much less, and the army of Sun Zhenduo, the governor of Jijiang Province, can finally be withdrawn to rush to Fengtian.

The staff officer next to him whispered, "Chief of Staff, the 22nd Regiment is the main force of the 3rd Army?"

Lei Zhenting certainly knew what this meant, and said in a deep voice, "Call the 122nd Regiment back and tell them to rest on the spot and wait for orders! Do not act on your own!"

Who knows what you are here for! What if Guo Tianyun arranged this on purpose? If this main force enters Fengtian and then fights with the rebels outside, that would be terrible!

After receiving the order, Xu Yan simply kneaded it, tore it into pieces and threw it aside.

"Fuck you, just stay where you are!" Xu Yan cursed viciously.

"This shows they don't trust us!" Wang Zhuguo echoed angrily.

How could they know that it was more than just distrust! Even the family members of the Third Army in Fengtian were arrested! His brother Wang Dingguo was transferred to the Young Marshal's Office and did not follow Guo Tianyun of the Third Army to escape, and now he has also become a prisoner.

Xu Yan looked at Wang Zhuguo and said with a smile: "Brother Zhuguo, why do I find that your IQ has suddenly increased a lot?"

"Captain, stop joking. It's already this late." Wang Zhuguo glared at the cynical young commander and said, "What should we do next? If Fengtian doesn't let us go back, where can we go? We can't just wait here to die. We are out of ammunition and food now!"

Xu Yan said expressionlessly: "Are there any landlords or wealthy people around here?"

Zhao Wenyu said leisurely, "Yes, there is a famous landlord nearby. The land within a radius of more than ten miles belongs to him! His name is Liu Fucai."

"Okay, that's him. Call the battalion commander and have him take a company to go to Liu Fucai to borrow food politely!"

Ah? Wang Zhuguo was stunned after hearing Xu Yan's words. Didn't he always tell me that soldiers should not disturb the people?

Xu Yan looked at Wang Zhuguo and rolled his eyes at him, knowing what he was thinking. "When I say not to disturb the people, I don't include the landlords!"

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back, whistled, and walked forward leisurely.

"Brother Wenyu, has the captain always been like this?" Wang Zhuguo had a frown on his face. From his face, one could tell two words about Xu Yan: pretentious!

Zhao Wenyu laughed dryly: "Haha, haha, probably, probably like this."

The Battle of Fengtian inevitably began! Guo Tianyun led the main force of the Third Army and advanced to the outskirts of Fengtian without encountering much resistance.

All the National Salvation Army tied a red armband on their right arms, with the words "Protect the Country" embroidered on it! This was to distinguish them from the Dongning Army, because they were all Dongning Army and their uniforms were all the same, so it was really hard to tell them apart.

The description of the Battle of Fengtian by later generations was very simple, but just a few words were enough to make people feel the cruelty of this defense!

Many years later, Liu Jiangjiu, the then garrison commander of Fengtian, recalled: "At that time, Fengtian City was full of grief and sorrow, and the food reserves in the city were insufficient. Most of the troops were mobilized to the defense of Beimozhou. The entire Fengtian City had only one brigade of Fengtian Garrison Force, and there was a serious shortage of troops. In addition, the guards of various commanders totaled less than 6,000 people. Later, the troops of Governor Sun from Jijiang arrived and took over the positions outside the city, which greatly alleviated the shortage of troops. However, the army from Jijiang was even worse off. They were in a hurry and did not carry too much baggage. They originally thought that they would get supplies when they arrived in Fengtian City, but they didn't know until they arrived in Fengtian that Fengtian was still expecting them to give them some replenishment!" The Fengtian Defense War was launched in such a hurry.

Fortunately, there was a small arsenal in Fengtian, which temporarily replenished the army's urgently needed ammunition.

Later, General Sun Zhenduo was reluctant to recall this experience, because he felt that there was really nothing to say about the Dongning Army fighting against itself. No matter who won, there was nothing to brag about, because those who died were all his comrades!

Later historical data simply summarized this defense battle in a few words: "The defense battle of Fengtian lasted for more than two and a half months. Fengtian City was filled with grief and corpses. The National Protection Army attacked the defense positions every day. Both sides shed blood. Countless soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded. The bodies filled the trenches. After the battle, two large collective burial tombs appeared in Fengtian City, one for the dead civilians and the other for the dead soldiers on both sides. Later generations called them mass graves!"

Later, Xu Yan called it a shameful war! It was completely provoked by selfish villains like Guo Tianyun, who were completely for personal gain and selfishness. It was a war that should never have happened! This war caused the Dongning Army's combat power to drop sharply! It also laid the groundwork for the tragic fate that followed.

The Third Corps under Guo Tianyun is indeed the elite among the elite. Guo Tianyun is indeed a commander who manages the army well. The Third Corps has great trust in him from top to bottom. Soldiers are most likely to be deceived by their superiors. Guo Tianyun talks to the soldiers every day about various doctrines and the unfair treatments suffered by the Third Corps! Moreover, Guo Tianyun swears every day that all this is to rescue the young marshal who is under house arrest by Lei Zhenting and others, so that the young marshal can take power, lead the Guandong region to separate from the mainland, no longer participate in the war in the mainland, and live his own life peacefully.

Soldiers don't want to fight in the first place. They have been tired of the wars before. If they really want to help the young marshal to take the throne and achieve true peace without fighting, that would be great. Moreover, Commander Guo also said that he wants to help the young marshal to take the throne. It doesn't matter who is the old marshal or the young marshal, it's all his Yu family's world, so it doesn't count as rebellion. It's all villains like Lei Zhenting who bully the young marshal and our Third Army!

In order to achieve this goal, the combat effectiveness of the Third Army did not weaken even though it was fighting its own people. In less than a week, most of the positions outside Fengtian were lost, and the National Protection Army headed straight for Fengtian City!

Only a small number of Sun Zhenduo's troops retreated into the city. Most of them were captured, and a few were scattered and escaped.

Looking at Zhao Zhenduo, who was covered in wounds, Marshal Yu Lin was both sad and happy. He was happy that Sun Zhenduo was still able to lead his troops to rescue and fight to the death at this time! At the critical moment, only these so-called old-school people can be relied on!

As for the tragedy, it is obvious. Now that the outer positions have been completely lost, Fengtian City is in danger. One can imagine what will happen to these old guys when the city is captured!

Although Xu Yan led the 122nd Regiment to temporarily solve the supply problem through friendly communication with Liu Fucai, he knew nothing about the specific situation in Fengtian now, and he did not dare to rush into Fengtian so rashly.

But he soon realized that something was wrong because he saw a large number of deserters among the fleeing crowd!

He ordered the troops to intercept and shelter deserters and wounded soldiers on the spot, and soon Xu Yan learned about the situation in Fengtian.

Xu Yan ordered the troops to stop advancing and stop on the spot. He needed to think carefully about what to do next. Going to die in such a righteous manner was not in line with his character.

Damn it! This time I will act like Sun Wukong and get into your belly, Princess Iron Fan, and turn your world upside down!

But the biggest problem now is that the 122nd Regiment was originally affiliated with the Third Army Corps, and was brought up by Guo Tianyun! Now that they are asked to turn their guns to attack Guo Tianyun, he really has no idea what the consequences will be.

Although Wang Zhuguo and others also said that they ate the Yu family's food and wore the Yu family's clothes, and it was impossible for them to do anything to let the Yu family down, but what would it be like if they really went to the battlefield and met their former comrades and superiors? Xu Yan could not afford to take the risk if there was any mistake.

In the end, Xu Yan decided to take only one company of Fang Tianlong to Fengtian City, and Wang Zhuguo led the 122nd Regiment to station outside Lueyin County.

After making the decision, Xu Yan found Zhao Wenyu immediately and told him seriously about his decision.

Zhao Wenyu had never seen Xu Yan with such a serious expression, and he instantly knew that the situation was not good.
