148 departure

The sunset dyed red the weeds on the roadside, and the cold wind gradually blew away the residual heat. The curtain gradually appeared in the mountains and fields around Xiaochang, and the Beiyang Army finally subsided. With the looted and full of goods, they returned to the city in groups along the mountain path. Everything here is as quiet as if nothing had been born.

A blood-red military flag suddenly appeared in the sky, and the military flag spread in front of the setting sun. I can't tell whether the setting sun is dyed red or the flag is dyed red.

This flying five-star red flag should not have appeared in this era, but now it is proof that Li wants to change history!

This flag will definitely set off the trend of nationalism, this flag will definitely create the great cause of republican democracy, and this flag will definitely support the tomorrow of the Chinese nation... Because I am a time traveler!

Under the banner, Li wanted to think of the online time-travel novel he had read before, and his heart was suddenly full of pride.

Li Xiang suddenly stood on his body and sweated. Behind him is a red sun, leaving three figures and a flag. One is Li Xiang, one is Zeng Gao, and the other is the flag bearer. They are all walking at the front of the queue, and behind them is the rolling forward.

Zeng Gao around him thought that Li wanted to walk and hurriedly helped him, but he shook off Zeng Gao's hand and ran to the small mound by the roadside.

Li wanted to stand on the mound, put a awning in his hand, and looked into the distance. From afar, I saw a line of ancient walls, black full of vicissitudes of history, short and dilapidated.

"Xiaochang has arrived." Zeng Gao also followed, took off the telescope and handed it to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang looked at the city through the quadruple eyepiece of the Zeiss telescope and shouted, "All the officers gather!"

Xiaochang, the curtain color has gradually shrouded. The warmth of the day has also subsided, and the cold wind is roaring in the streets and alleys.

In the backyard of the office of Taiye Office in Xiaochang County, Qing Dynasty, it was in full swing, and several carriages were busy. The precious things collected from the place were moved from the carriage endlessly. Everyone was busy sweating profusely. The officers of Beiyang, dressed in neat new military uniforms, ran around the team and commanded loudly.

"Slow down! Wait a minute! This is the porcelain bottle inside. It's Song Guanyao's blue and white porcelain. It's a little missing and peeled your skin!"

"Where should I put it? This is the Xuande furnace! You bastards, you really can't handle people's affairs!"

"Wine, Lao Fen wine! Be careful of touching it! The old rich man in Huaxi hid the old Fen wine for decades and turned over his cellar and found it to the genius. What's the point of it? Chasing your cards and chasing you out of the road! Go out and be a beggar and go back to Baoding!"

After a hard day, the harvest of the Beiyang Army is still very rewarding. People are busy and noisy. From time to time, people bump into each other, and there are curses of various accents.

Suddenly, I don't know who booed, "Your excellency is coming!" Everyone suddenly calmed down and hurriedly said, "Your Excellency!"

Although the Beiyang Army is a new army with new training, these feudal dross have not been updated.

In the night, the stationmaster of the Xiaochang Military Station was neatly dressed, and the calfskin high-waisted boots were polished brightly. Under the two officials carrying lanterns to illuminate the road, the spurs creaked on the floor.

"You are busy." The stationmaster also waved his hand kindly. Seeing the full harvest in the yard, I was really happy. Hubei is really not an ordinary rich man, but a small Xiaochang, which has made this soldier a fortune. He estimated that he could buy a house in Tianjin. The only drawback is that you don't get the opportunity to enter Hankou with the army. If you can make a profit in the prosperity of gold and silver everywhere, then this year's harvest can be even higher.

Thinking of those old students who graduated from the Army C crash school, who are making a fortune in the Shili Yangchang of Hankou at this moment, their good mood has become a cloud.

Naturally, there are people around him who know how to pat a horse and observe words and colors. My lord, although we are not as rich as Hankou, we don't have many restrictions in Hankou. I heard that after the fire robbery, foreigners in the concession intervened, and Lord Yuan and Feng Juntong also added more restrictions in Hankou. Can they still scrape hard like us in Xiaochang? My lord, look at the Western clock. There are also a lot of Western things here, but they can be hidden tightly. If we scrape it again, we will definitely scratch out a lot of good things.

He smiled, nodded and ordered, "Tomorrow, you let go of my hands!" We are passing soldiers. After the war, can we still stay here? There's nothing to worry about, it's just that it has something to do with it. It's not that I'm in front of these rabbits! Follow me, I'm afraid there is no meat to eat! Are your purses bulging these days? Tomorrow, you will work harder for me, and you may be able to set up a house in Tianjin next year!"

A group of follow-up hurriedly bowed and agreed.

But he also added a sentence with no long eyes: "Your Excellency, I heard that Nanjing has been lost, and Li Xiang of Anlu is also ready to move. Duan Juntong also added 500 people to our Xiaochang soldiers to increase defense. It seems that the situation is a little wrong. At this time, we don't strengthen the defense and dismiss our subordinates to collect scrapers... Raising military pay, in case something happens. What's the change? ............”

The stationmaster's face sank down and pulled it like a donkey's face: "What's the matter? What can happen? Can Li Xiang, who hides in Baizhao Mountain in Anlu and be the king of the mountain, can he turn the sky over? You are all veterans. The 100,000 bandits in Hankou have been beaten by us. Huang Xing and Li Yuanhong are all famous generals, and they are not defeated by Beiyang! Some people have followed Lord Yuan to fight in Shandong. What's the difference between Li Xiang's group of mud legs and boxers? Can't deal with it? Wuhan has truce, which can be guaranteed by foreigners! Who dares to repent? Isn't this annoying to foreigners? The North-South peace conference is about to begin. Where is there a war? Now, before the army withdraws, we will finally make another chance. If anyone delays the master's big plan to make a fortune... military law! I don't understand!"

The sweat of the class has come down, and he doesn't dare to fart more. Only the continuous voice retreated.

With this time, a good mood followed the clouds.

Li Xiang, Li Xiang, suddenly heard the decisive and fierce fighting sound of Li Dian that night in his ears. Humph! In those years, the boxers in Zhili, Shandong were not the same crazy, but could their flesh and blood withstand the cannon? These brain-damaged people really want to come to capt the tiger's beard and kill them again! Who did they scare?

He looked up at the night sky of Nanguo. There was a little cloud in the sky, covering half of the bright moon. It will be a good day tomorrow.

In the cold wind blowing from time to time, Xiaochang City is quiet.

The main force of the Hubei Bandit Party has been disabled, and what else can happen?

"Report the general. All the officers have been assembled!!!"

Song Que looked serious and stood in front of Li Xiang like a benchmark. This man with light life and death, great righteousness, and the atmosphere of chivalrous people in ancient times has always been this serious wooden face since he witnessed the atrocities in Beiyang along the road. A burst of anger has always been depressed in the chest, and I don't know how to put up with it until now, and it's time to break out.

The officers behind him also tried to stand up straight. In the past three months of field battles, they all looked haggard. Everyone's military uniforms were dirty and smelly, and the military boots of several officers were broken! But standing in front of Li Xiang, everyone cleaned up their military appearance as much as possible. Everyone stared at the not-thigh, but very firm back with fiery eyes. Like Song Que, they all need to vent their anger after witnessing the Beiyang atrocities!

The Hu Zhazi on Li Xiang's face was already very domestically produced. When he sold pork in Shenzhen, he was known as the prince of pork. It turned out that the delicate appearance of the gentle little white face had disappeared for a long time. He turned his back to the officers who came in an emergency. Look at the dark Xiaochang City from a distance with a telescope. It is very close to Xiaohua West and far from Xiaochang, about 30 or 40 kilometers away. The location is very ideal, and these two places can be observed without a telescope. However, this night, you can still see farther and more clearly with a telescope. These beasts, they are sent to hell!

Li Xiang waved his hand back without looking back: "Sit down."

With a bang, the officers sat down cross-legged, regardless of whether it was muddy water or shit under their buttocks.

Li Xiang turned around like a whirlwind and looked at the group of young officers under his command. The officers' groups he pulled out from Wuchang are still army non-commissioned officer graduates studying in Japan, and many are students from local martial arts schools. There are rare high-quality officer groups in China, and they also have rare youth and vitality. That kind of sharp spirit, mixed with the newly awakened national spirit, is even more rare!

Looking at this group of nationalist angry youths, they set off the nationalist revolution in 1911, and then carried out the nationalist revolution to the end. This Xinhai Revolution in time and space, because of their desperate efforts, will definitely be a different ending!

Three months of field battle has been almost exhausted. But as long as they think about the refugee trend they have seen all the way, their hearts will be involuntarily painful. One by one, they are like stars with the explosion of the small universe, full of spirit, looking at Li Xiang with bright eyes, just waiting for him to issue an order, and then give the Beiyang Army a desperate blow.

The meaning of revolution, the mission of nationalism, has become extremely clear and realistic at this moment, not a few words printed on the empty speeches and publications of the party members. What does the revolution want to protect? What do you want to revitalize? All the way, the people who moaned in suffering are what they want to protect; this bullied and weak country and nation is what they want to revitalize. They believe in themselves, carry the hope of the nation, and are willing to bear this heavy burden, even if they die!

Li Xiang couldn't help moving his eyes. He wanted to be a little emotional, but he covered it up with the action of holding the military cap.

His face habitually appeared a fresh smile after the rain, sweeping away some tragic and serious atmosphere. In fact, they are not as religious brain-damaged as boxers. Why don't they know that Li wants to take them to death? However, the soldiers and civilians in the south also fantasize about peace with Yuan Shikai and against Yuan Shikai, but they don't know that such a group of cruel Beiyang troops rule China, which will definitely become a new disaster for China! They can only wake up the southern army and civilians who are still fantasizing with blood, set off a higher revolutionary trend, and carry out the revolution to the end!

"You have seen what kind of deep and hot life the people of Hubei and our fellow villagers live! However, Wuchang Li Yuanhong asked for peace with the Beiyang army and accepted the fate of these Beiyang robbers! For the sake of our homeland, for the sake of freedom and democracy, we will never accept our fate and never seek peace!" Lixiang's words are always fierce and full of self-confidence and domineering. He not only said to these officers, but also to the soldiers behind him.

"Kone the revolution to the end!" The officers and soldiers shouted at the same time, and even the chasing cold wind condensed.

"This is our home. As long as we are here, who wants to make trouble here, who still seems to ride on our heads, we have to ask our revolutionary army whether to agree! The five-star red flag has set off the 1911 Revolution. From now on, we will no longer be slaves or cattle and horses! We want to be human freedom! We want democracy and republicanism! ............Kry the Beiyang dog!"

"............Ky the Beiyang dog!" There was a passionate response and sound below, and the sound shook the night sky.

Li Xiang smiled and took a deep breath. The will to fight in the revolutionary army is still high, but since Wuchang's righteousness, for nearly three consecutive months of field battles, physical strength and physical strength have been the end of the crossbow. It was Li Xiang's repeated encouragement in the spirit of nationalism that supported this inhuman perseverance. Therefore, he is doubly unwilling to see the emergence of peace, and the military and the people's spirit can not be vented. How can the history of 1911 written by the infinite blood of the infinite head return to the original, how can the hard-won national spirit be stopped, and how can a vigorous revolution give up halfway? Now it is time to work hard, set off a broader and far-reaching revolutionary wave before the will is declining, and complete another time and space, the unfulfilled task of the 1911 Revolution.

Let the flames of war burn more fiercely! The national soul of New China will be reborn in the fire!

After experiencing this grinding of blood and fire, the revolutionary army will clearly know that they are carrying the heavy responsibility of the nation, which will become the hardest part of the soul of this iron army - to defend the people!

In this era, China has never had such an army.

"A regiment mastted to attack Xiaochang City, and the commander of the whole regiment was under the command of Song. Your purpose is to contain the Beiyang Army in Xiaochang City, because he can't send troops to reinforce Huaxi. The fiercer the firepower, the better. If you can tear a gap in Xiaochang, it will become a tack as the main attack! Four machine guns, all of which are assigned to you. Do you understand?" Huaxi is located in the west of Xiaochang City, leaning on each other with Xiaochang. Xiaochang is an important transit station of Beiyang on the supply line of the Beijing-Han Railway, and it is close to Xiaogan, the station of the Beiyang Second Army led by Duan Qirui. It echoes Dawubing Station, Huaxi and other strongholds, which is definitely an important support point for the Beiyang Army.

"Yes!" Song Que shouted and agreed. The second regiment scattered the Xia family's stronghold with the first battalion and cut off the contact between Xiaochang City and Huaxi. If the first regiment tore open Xiaochang City, it can immediately join the attack of Xiaochang City; the second battalion serves as an assist in the east and south of Huaxi; the third battalion sells the main attack in the west and southwest of the east regiment fortress; the secret guard company follows me for the assault. Team! No matter what resistance we encounter, no matter what kind of difficulties we encounter, no matter what we encounter that prevents us from moving forward, it's all the case. The fire bayonet smashes it!"

The officers who were named should be one after another. They stood up one by one.

Li Xiang's tone is getting colder and colder.

With the help of the underground staff and Huang Guangzhong, who had been lurking for a long time, the scouts had a clear understanding of the personnel, weapons and equipment of the Beiyang Army. The Huaxi stronghold is relatively isolated, but the fortifications are solid. They are all reinforced by the Beiyang on the basis of the military stations left by the construction of the Jinghan Railway in the Zhangzhidong era. There are bunkers and bunkers inside, fences, trenches, barbed wire and deer forts outside, forming a strong ring fortifications. In particular, the central bunker in Huaxi, with three upper and lower floors, can control the whole town. The elite of the Beiyang Army stationed in Huaxi is the elite of the Beiyang Army. The stationmaster heard that he is also a graduate of the accelerated class of the Baoding Army. In addition to the old feudal ideas, the Beiyang Army's equipment and training even surpasses that of Japan in this era. There are more than 300 people in the Huaxi stronghold, all of whom are professional soldiers who have experienced many battles and are equipped with advanced equipment, and their combat effectiveness is very strong!

Zeng Gao shook his head and put aside this messy thought. Maybe he is the only person here who is still clear-headed, but he has already decided to die with Li and carry out the revolution to the end. What else do you think?

Li Xiang glanced at the officers coldly, and the great man waved his hand vigorously: "Let's go!"

The officers rose up. Everyone's kidney hormones soared in a straight line, and their eyes turned red like an angry bull. Looking at the ** home of the Beiyang Army, the anger that was about to explode in his chest reached the zero point; the revolution was setbacked, and the depression in their hearts of the first righteous revolutionary army was like a tide, and their will to fight has reached its peak!

Li wanted to turn around and look at Xiaochang City in the distance. With his order, countless signal bullets soared into the air. In an instant, the Jinghan Railway was completely red by artillery fire, and the revolutionary army's big attack and counterattack began. This is an unforgettable moment, destined to be a battle recorded in the new history of 1911.

The night at this moment is particularly quiet. Because Li wanted to mobilize the masses to closely cooperate with the troops to block the news, the troops were not found to enter under the enemy's nose at dusk. But this kind of tranquility makes people a little restless. The red flare cut through the night sky and broke the tranquility. All kinds of assault troops rushed to the stations and strongholds of the Beijing-Han Railway with lightning speed. The Beijing-Han traffic war that changed the history of 1911 kicked off.

The scene at this moment is really spectacular and incredibly beautiful! The red flares of the attack soared into the sky and cut through the night sky. The planned commandos from all walks of life were like tigers going down the mountain, rushing to the stations and strongholds of the Beiyang Army. The sound of thunderous explosions, one after another, resounded throughout the Jinghan Railway. Those young staff officers standing behind Zeng Gao were excited. How could they ever see such a spectacular battle scene? At this moment, not only Xiaochang, but also the whole Jinghan Railway, Guangshui and Dawu, are submerged in the fire net of the revolutionary army and the people.

Li Xiangbu's big attack is also a response to the restoration of Nanjing. As Yuan Shikai slowly and fully controls the situation in the north, although Nanjing has good news about the restoration of Nanjing, Yuan Shikai still controls the national situation, and the south is facing an increasingly difficult situation. In particular, the depression of the situation in Hubei can't get rid of the threat of Feng Guozhang. The Beiyang army is destroying Hubei like a locust crossing. The people of Hubei are looking forward to the victory of the revolutionary army, just like praying for the dawn in the middle of the night.

Li Xiang is quite excited. All the residents of Li Xiangguang District were encouraged by Li Xiang to support the revolutionary army. Even women and children used bamboo baskets to help transport grenades. It mobilized all the forces of the whole Hubei. This operation is a great alliance of the people. It will certainly give a heavy blow to the Beiyang Army, and it will give it to those who think that the revolution will continue. The country must be subjugated. The people who want to sign the "alliance under the city" will be slapped loudly in the face, which will set off a more fierce trend in 1911 and completely change the trend of history!
