I traveled through time, starting with two acres of land and a dog

"Also, we must immediately collect dynamic intelligence from all the guards in our jurisdiction. We must not act too hastily, but also not allow the enemy to take advantage of any opportunity," Du Chenyu continued.

"Yes, Mr. Chenyu, you continue to rest. I will report to you if there is anything," said Shen Shiyu.

When I woke up again, it was already bright. The leaders had already left. I guess the enemy was going to attack again. Otherwise, the military expenditure would be a big problem if such a large army was assembled. The biggest disadvantage of the conscription system in the Republic of China was that the soldiers had no loyalty, and the army relied on money to fight. It was a team without ideas and soul. In 1926, the Guangzhou Revolutionary Government was able to defeat hundreds of thousands of Beiyang warlords with tens of thousands of people in the Northern Expedition. The main reason was that this was the first team in the Republic of China with ideas, which was a dimensionality reduction attack.

Now the population in their jurisdiction has reached nearly 600 people, but the mobile team has only people. In addition to the lack of guns, Du Chenyu hopes to build an ideological team and insists on quality rather than quantity, so the development is very slow. All prisoners must be carefully selected and strictly trained to ensure their loyalty.

After yesterday's battle, the early base guards have gradually become veterans. The new students joining the martial arts school and the garrison team will also become veterans after several battles. As long as they overcome the current difficulties, his military expansion in the later stage will be smoother.

He Chaowu cleaned up the spoils brought back last night and reported to him that there were 68 usable rifles in total, and hundreds of damaged rifles; more than 80 grenades, 2000 rounds of various bullets, especially two boxes of Maxim heavy machine gun bullets, kilograms of explosives, and some military ammunition and sundries. Among the sundries was a box of silver dollars, with yuan, which was considered an unexpected fortune. In this way, their combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced, and the enemy became more difficult.

"Bang, bang", the Yang family started a new attack before he finished reading the intelligence summary last night. With the addition of reinforcements, Du Chenyu was not worried about today's battle at all. Let go and let Hu Laosi command by himself.

"Master Chenyu and the Yang family have started attacking again," Hu Laowu came in and said.

"Notify your fourth brother and tell him to go all out. The enemy needs to get closer, so the main thing is to destroy their manpower. I'll be waiting for good news from him at the base," Du Chenyu instructed.

"Okay, I'll convey it right away," Hu Laowu left.

The sounds of various explosions and machine gun fire were deafening. Du Chenyu walked around the room a few times, but he was still a little worried. It seemed that he was not shrewd enough and could not remain calm.

"Let's go and take a look." After more than ten minutes of fierce attack, Du Chenyu couldn't help it and arranged for the guard team to set off and watch the battle from a distance.

"Yes, Master Chenyu," several young staff officers and guards had been restless for a long time. They could not go to the battlefield, nor could they watch the battle, so they could only be anxious. When they heard that he was going out, they immediately packed up everything and prepared to leave.

This time, Du Chenyu came to an observation fort two kilometers away. The view here was better, but it was too far away to see clearly. He could only see a battlefield filled with smoke and various gunfire sounds. "Mr. Chenyu, it would be great if we had a telescope," said a guard, Zhao Mingguang.

"Indeed, this thing only belonged to the company commander who came to assist us in paying the fees at Xiguanbao. I have never seen anyone else have it. It cannot be bought or snatched." He said with a sigh.

"Da da da da da... Da da da da da", the enemy's Maxim guns started firing again, and it was estimated that a new round of attack was about to begin.

"Go tell Captain Hu not to fight hard. The enemy's heavy machine guns have a limited firing range, so we can only focus on attacking the area along the riverside avenue. If we really can't hold it, we can give up and retreat to the second line of defense." He asked the guard to pass on the message.

Since the enemy has put the main attack at the end today, it means they want to break through their defense line in one fell swoop. They must have a backup plan, so we have to guard against it.

Du Chenyu quietly moved forward 500 meters to the front line and climbed on a hill to watch. Sure enough, under the cover of heavy machine guns, a group of men in black crawled along the sides of the avenue. More than 10 people in front were all equipped with pistols. Boom... The enemy threw a grenade in his trench. The continuous fire of the pistol suppressed his side and almost made it impossible to fight back. He could only throw grenades, but the effect was still not ideal. The enemy was very fast. These ten people were all agile, from a training family, and had accurate shooting skills. They were only 10 meters away from the trench. As long as they fought hand-to-hand, they would suffer heavy losses. The enemy's pistol was the king of short-range weapons and they were also masters of martial arts. This was the family heritage. A family with a history of more than a hundred years should not be underestimated. They had been trained as guards since childhood, and their frontal combat was no weaker than his special forces.

"Retreat to the second line of defense." Team 2 guards this important position today. Team 1 suffered heavy casualties yesterday and had to be replaced. Under the cover of snipers and machine guns, the team began to retreat to the second line of bunkers. As they retreated, several black-clad men from the other side were already approaching the first line of defense trenches.

"Throw..." He hid in the cornfield more than 20 meters away and suddenly stood up and threw a grenade towards the trench occupied by the enemy. This was the spoils of war from last night, and it finally solved the biggest crisis of the day.

"Fire, da da, da da da", Yingzang's last light machine gun began to sweep, "Charge back and take back the lost position", dozens of team members withdrew from the trenches, and taking advantage of the moment when the enemy was stunned, they raised their guns and began to counterattack.

"Oh no, we've been ambushed. Let's retreat. The machine guns here can't provide cover. We are outnumbered and are no match for their opponent." The man in black who led the team saw that half of his team was gone in an instant, so he immediately jumped out of the trench and began to retreat. With the cover of the following teams, he actually retreated 5 or 6 more people. However, after a final counterattack by the attacking team, more than 40 bodies were left, groaning on the battlefield.

As several black-clad men retreated, the enemy blew the retreat horn, taking whatever bodies and guns they could. This attack lasted for nearly an hour, and the corn seedlings in the 3-500 area had been torn to pieces, and some plots were still smoking. There were dozens of bodies left on the battlefield. There was no sound of gunfire, and the surroundings seemed particularly quiet, but the wounds of the warring parties were still bleeding, and people watching the excitement from a distance were also whispering.

"Clean up the battlefield. I guess the enemy won't be able to attack for the time being. In two attacks, the enemy lost at least 150 people. Such casualties are already devastating." Du Chenyu said softly while looking at the battlefield.

Half an hour later, someone handed him a simple battle report with preliminary statistics: 26 of our men were killed today, 12 were seriously injured, some were slightly injured, and at least 100 enemies were killed.

In general, their combat effectiveness was still relatively poor, with a record of 1:3 in defensive battles. Of course, this was because there were too many new recruits and only more than 100 veterans, so it was normal for there to be heavy casualties.

Watching the Yang family's troops retreat directly to the camp at the foot of Nanyang Mountain and lift the siege on them, but the Nanyang camp is only four or five kilometers away from here, as long as the troops are not disbanded, the two sides will not stop fighting and will be in a state of confrontation.

"Report..., the Yushanbao of Lianghui Temple was attacked by bandits", "Report... the Qingmubao of Liziba was attacked by bandits", "The Feng family compound in Banqiao prepared to start an uprising last night, and 28 people were directly arrested and are waiting for punishment." These are the war reports received from various routes from noon to night. So far, no core area has been harmed, and the scale of bandits in various places is not large. Moreover, Liziba and Lianggui Temple each have a squadron guarding. As long as the important areas are not lost, other mountain areas will be slowly recovered later. It's just that the Feng family in Banqiao is very courageous. He is the largest landlord in Banqiao at present. He has not had much contact with them. He does not resist or support policies. The head of the Feng family has a son who is a battalion commander in another place. They also try not to provoke him, so there is no land reform in Fengjiawan. As a result, they still want to gather people to rebel, so they can only be polite.
