Chapter 171 Thieves Stealing Horse Materials

Zhang Jun's almost crazy counterattack finally woke up Aoki Yuan!

The peak in the fetus is like a magnet, firmly absorbing the most elite first team of the mixed brigade.

Aokiyuan suddenly realized that he was fooled by Zhou Charter!

The enemy's intention is not in the Qiaochuan River, not in the fetal peak, or even in Yizhou!

Anzhou is what Zhou Charter wants!

This Zhou Charter must be crazy. At the moment when the Qing army was defeated, he dared to take a defeated soldier to attack the important town garrisoned by the Japanese army!

Aokiyuan marked the enemy's posture on the map and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Once Anzhou City is replaced with a yellow flag representing the Qing army, a circle will be formed between the Qiaochuan River and Anzhou!

On the periphery, the enemy relied on the rivers, mountains and the walls of Anzhou to wait for work, but in the encirclement, there is no danger to defend!

The mixed brigade has become a helpless and lonely army on the plain!

What awaits him can only be destroyed!

"What's the situation in Anzhou?" Aoki Gen asked in a low voice.

Fuchino Aso gave up the city wall and retreated to the Guanhai Tower fortress." The chief of staff replied.

"Yes! Yes! This is a correct decision. If the mixed brigade can break out of the siege, it is thanks to Mr. Fujino!" At this time, Aoki Yuan realized that he had fallen into the encirclement of the enemy, and the initiative of the battlefield had already shifted to the Qing army. However, this encirclement has not been completely sealed. There is still a gap in Guanhai Tower!

"What should we do, brigade commander?" The chief of staff asked.

"How many troops have withdrawn from the fetal peak now?" Aokiyuan asked back.

"Only one brigade retreated, and two brigades were scattered on the high ground below Donglin Falls. They were bitten by the enemy and could not withdraw."

Aokiyuan was very frustrated and fought to seize more than a dozen highlands, which became a burden. No, it's a trap!

The first team is trapped and it's hard to extricate itself!

"Order the troops who retreated from the tire peak to advance to Anzhou immediately. They must break through the periphery of Anzhou before dark, surround Zhou Charter in the city of Anzhou, and annihilate it!"

"Chief of the brigade, do you mean that the supreme commander of the enemy is in Anzhou?"

"Yes! That cunning Chinese must be in Anzhou! That's his goal!" Aokiyuan glared at the south. Until now, he understood why the Japanese army, from commanders to soldiers, regarded Zhou Charter as a real enemy!

"However, I'm worried that a brigade is not enough to destroy Zhou Charter. He has entered Anzhou City and can resist with a strong wall. Moreover, the troops following Zhou Charter are the main force of the enemy! Judging from the combat effectiveness of the enemy's army, the main force of Anzhou's enemy should be stronger!"

"Order the troops on the peak of the fetus to break away from contact with the enemy as soon as possible, leaving a few troops to stop the enemy, and return to Anzhou. Order the Second Wing to stop crossing the bridge and river and move closer to Anzhou immediately!"

"Blv commander, if we do this, we will give up Yizhou!" The staff officer hesitated: "The commander of Shan County ordered us to take Yizhou before dark tomorrow. We are openly disobeying the order! I'm going to the military court!"

"When we attacked the fetal peak, we had already resisted!" Aokiyuan said grimly, "Even if we try our best to break through the Qiaochuan River, we can't reach Yizhou before dark tomorrow!" And if Anzhou is lost, the mixed brigade will die without a burial place! It's me who is against the order. It has nothing to do with you. After the battle, I will personally apologize to the Marshal of Shan County!"

......

The south bank of the bridge.

Lai Chuanwu, deputy commander of the 2nd Regiment of Zhangjun and commander of the 201 Battalion, jumped off the wooden boat with a musket and stepped into the piercing river with his feet.

A soldier beside him was shot in the head and fell into the river without saying a word. Blood splashed on Lai Chuanwu.

Lai Chuanwu raised the Type 88 rifle, shot in a standard standing position, pulled the trigger, and a Japanese soldier hidden on the reef not far away fell down the river beach.

As an officer, Lai Chuanwu should wear a rotating pistol, but before boarding the ship, he threw the pistol to his guard and snatched the Type 88 rifle from the guard.

In his eyes, the pistol is a child's toy. A soldier who really goes to the battlefield should hold a long gun, of course, preferably an original imported rifle from Germany or the United States. As for the domestic Type 88 rifle, it is barely okay. It is a new product of Hanyang Arsenal.

The old man Zhang Zhidong was very confused. He was fooled by the Germans. He set up an arsenal in Hanyang and introduced a committee rifle production line. He thought it was a Mauser gun production line and was very happy. But then again, the committee's rifle is not bad, which is still much better than the imitation British rifle made by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Administration.

The second regiment launched a comprehensive counterattack on the 800-meter river.

Nahawu, deputy division commander and commander of the second regiment of Zhangjun, saw wolf smoke in the southern sky from afar. At the same time, the Japanese army on the other side of the Qiaochuan River stopped attacking and showed signs of retreating. Naha five immediately ordered to forcibly cross the bridge and river and launch a counterattack against the second regiment of the Japanese mixed brigade.

Wu Peifu's first regiment suffered an all-night attack by the Japanese army and has been disabled. There are more than 2,000 people in the regiment, leaving only 800 people with combat effectiveness, completely losing their attack ability. The task of crossing the river to counterattack naturally fell to the head of the second regiment, and Lai Chuanwu's 201st battalion was the vanguard.

Battalion 201 got more than a dozen wooden boats, which saved them from the pain of crossing. More than 800 people in the battalion rushed to the south bank in a wooden boat and braved the fire of the Japanese army.

The attack was smooth. The Japanese army on the south coast obviously lacked the will to resist, and the firepower was not dense. Although five or six wooden boats were hit by gunfire, most of the wooden boats still rushed across the bridge and river, and the soldiers jumped off the wooden boats and rushed to the beach.

"Fight! Come on! 50 taels of silver for killing a little Japanese!" Lai Chuanwu shouted.

"Master Lai, we don't have any money, and the money has been taken by Qian Yougui to sell Korean ginseng." Pei Xiaozheng, the deputy, said in a hurry. He was wet all over. When he jumped off the boat, he did not stand still and fell into the river, which saved his life. Otherwise, the bullet should have shot into his head.

"Fuck! Soldiers also want to do business. This is not a soldier, just a group of poor people!" Lai Chuanwu scolded hatefully, but there was nothing he could do. The Empress Dowager spent all her money in the garden, and even Li Hongzhang didn't want money. What can Zhou Charter, a small soldier of Yizhou, do?

However, war costs money! Not to mention weapons and equipment, soldiers have to fight with their heads to eat food, otherwise, who will work hard!

Lai Chuanwu knew that he became the deputy regimental commander and battalion commander, and many people were not convinced.

If you want to convince the public, there are two ways, one is to show your qualifications to suppress these veterans, and the other is to take money to buy people's hearts.

Zhang Jun is so poor that there is nothing he can do. Lai Chuanwu has to convince the public by his seniority.

However, his qualifications are very problematic.

Originally, he made a little reputation in Chenghuan, and the original officers and soldiers of Zhangzi Battalion still recognized him. But he became a deserter in Yuanshan and missed the Battle of Hufeiling.

In the minds of Zhang's officers and soldiers, the Battle of Hufeiling is the battle that made Zhang Jun famous in World War I. Those who did not participate in the Battle of Hufeiling are not the backbone of Zhang Jun.

What's more, Lai Chuanwu's image when he returned to Zhang Jun was too bad. He came back with a horse-like hiccup.

This image is so obscene and eye-catching that people completely forget the whistle chief who dominates Chenghuan. What people remember is a thief who steals horse food!

Of course, Lai Chuanwu doesn't care what people think of him, whether he is a hero or a thief. Anyway, Lai Chuanwu and those people are not the same person at all!

He looked down on Zhang Jun from the bottom of his heart, and he looked down on everyone from officers to soldiers!

Including Zhou Charter, the self-apported teacher.

It's no wonder that he even looked down on Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, and how could he see a young student who escaped from Tianjin Wubei School.

I don't know what luck this young student hit. He unexpectedly became Mr. Qian from a small soldier and from Mr. Qian to Mr. Qian. This guy also shamelessly called himself a division commander and made some foreign things to fie people.

What's more, Zhang Jun's officers and soldiers regarded Zhou Charter as a god and bowed in a low voice. The reckless people like Hawu Yao Xi have never seen any world or real people. It is understandable that they are in awe of Zhou Charter. However, Feng Guozhang, Luo Mingfang and Zhang Xun, the court officials, also kowtowed to Zhou Charter, which is too fucking excessive!

In the whole Zhang army, only Lai Chuanwu refused to accept Zhou's Charter. Moreover, only Lai Chuanwu can pull Zhou Charter down from the position of general, and even take Zhou Charter's life!

Because Lai Chuanwu can go straight to heaven! His words can be reached to the ears of the supreme ruler of the Qing Dynasty - the empress dowager, not the emperor!

He is the person who returned to the "Thirteen Yamen" from North Korea to Wanshou Mountain of the Summer Palace!

He is one of the eyes of the supreme ruler of the Qing Dynasty!
