204 dare on

Night came quietly. The light in the Yangtze River Basin dissipated and was gradually replaced by darkness, and the cold was constantly increasing.

In the filial piety camp, Duan Qirui stood alone in the cold wind and was speechless to ask the sky. Behind him, in the brightly lit military tent, the military generals and counselors are busy with complicated military information.

The bright retreat made the madman Li like a beast that slowed down, and came out again and began to rage. The Beijing-Han Railway Line, which once fell into an impasse, burned again and fiercely.

In response to the traffic attack on the Beijing-Han railway line launched by Li Madman, Xu Shuzheng planned the strategic deployment, and the Beiyang Army began a crazy revenge "sweeping".

Feng Guozhang and Xu Shuzheng thought that the regular army of the Li Madman Revolutionary Army in Hubei could only be dispersed into small groups of guerrillas. With the help of the familiar home field, they did not expect that Li Madman concentrated nearly three divisions and stabbed him in the back, making the whole long railway in Hubei set fire, half of the cannon. Smoke is coming from the building. Duan Qirui of Xiaogan felt panicked. Yuan Shikai in Beijing was very angry. The Beiyang army in Hubei couldn't swallow this breath. Duan Qirui mobilized Wu Guangxin, Qu Tongfeng and other important Anhui generals, lowered his posture to borrow Wang Zhanyuan from Feng Guozhang, and also attracted Sun Chuanfang, who seized power Xiaochang. A total of more than 20,000 Beiyang troops, commanded by Xu Shuzheng. All the reserve materials of Xiaogan will be a backwater battle to "sweep" the Xiaochang and Anlu areas.

As soon as the Beiyang Army came up, it rushed to the hinterland of Xiaochang and Anlu. Xu Shuzheng's judgment was correct. He was surrounded by the ninth road and almost made Li want to cook dumplings. However, Li Xiang actually flew away under the eyes of the besieged Ninth Road of the Beiyang Army...

Xu Shuzheng, known as Duan Qirui's think tank, seems to have just been aware of himself under the continuous blow of Li Madman. He had to admit that it was very difficult to get to know the people of Hubei and the revolutionary army in Hubei, and how difficult it was to completely understand the matter of the madman Li.

Huangcun encircled and suppresses bankruptcy. Duan Qirui has been powerless to succeed. He has been ready to apply to Yuan Shikai for the active withdrawal of troops and start a war of words with Li Madman. However, because of the fear of the Hankou foreigners for Li Madman, he sold him a batch of much-needed military supplies, hoping that he can completely solve the Li Madman's problem. In this way, it solved his urgent need. But after all, the materials are limited, and it can only support one battle...

Xu Shuzheng racked his brains to avoid the failure of the encirclement and suppressing Huangcun and summed up the lessons learned. In this battle, we need to go inside and outside. First the center blooms, and then the periphery bears fruit. First smash the headquarters of the madman Li Anlu and the nearby headquarters of Zhou Wu's division, so that the whole Hubei revolutionary army has no leader, and then the district will be cleared.

The Beiyang Army believes that the revolutionary army, with Zhou Wushi as the main body, after another offensive, will stab the main force in the mountain area from the east of Wuxiang to the north of Licheng, and the other is in the area of Qinyuan to carry out a tenacious attack on Shangxian-Anlu-Wenxiang Road and this section of the Jinghan Railway.

The Beiyang Army rushed to the hinterland of the Anlu Revolutionary Army in several ways. On the South Road, Wang Zhanyuan attacked Qinyuan and Guojia Town from the east of Shangxian County. Wang Zhanyuan acted as the vanguard of retaliatory "sweeping" this time. On the North Road, Sun Chuanfang's main force has broken through the Bishan defense line, but was intercepted by Li Xiping south of Guangshui. After a few days of hard work, thousands of people were killed and injured, but there was still no progress. Under the fierce fire, Li Xiping's casualties were not light, but Xu Shuzheng and Duan Qirui and Sun Chuanfang were not sure whether they could break through Li Xiping's defense.

Duan Qirui was thinking nonsense. Xu Shuzheng suddenly walked out of the military tent and came behind him and shouted softly, "Lord Juntong?"

Duan Qirui came to his senses and looked back: "You Zheng, what's the matter? Just look at the decision... Anyway, the Hubei battlefield is victory or defeat, and it will no longer affect the overall situation. You just let go and do it... Now this war involves the deepest interests, not our Beiyang, Li crazy and the foreign adults in Hankou, let's do our best..."

Xu Shuzheng shook his head secretly, and the commander-in-chief of the army actually said such a dejected word. It seemed that he was really tossed away by the madman Li and lost his temper. In fact, why not he was he? Such an idea made Xu Shuzheng horrified. He quickly raised his spirit and said, "Wang Zhanyuan's telegram still needs to be decided by adults!"

"Hmm?" Duan Qirui was a little helpless. Wang Zhan said that he was incompetent, but the Beiyang Army was still the elite. In the bitter battle of encircling and suppressing the madman, the army had been beaten to pieces. The people Feng Guozhang gave him did not play any role in this battle.

Duan Qirui took a quick look at the telegram and shouted angrily, "Wang Zhanyuan saw An Lu Zaiwang but did not dare to launch an attack. He just kept sending a report to the military department, ask for people, guns and ammunition. I think Wang Zhanyuan can't wait to swallow the sky at this time.

Looking at Duan Qirui's angry scolding and turning around in place, Xu Shuzheng's lips moved, trying to persuade him and resisted. Because Xu Shuzheng knew that although Wang Zhanyuan was so greedy that President Duan Qirui hated him, Sun Chuanfang had no hope of breaking through Li Xiping's defense in the two-way attack, because Sun Chuanfang suffered the most heavy losses in the first battle of Huangcun. Because he was not Duan Qirui's direct line, almost the most bitter battles were Sun Chuanfang and Wang Zhanyuan. And this time, Wang Zhanyuan's troops are not enough, and I don't know if he is lucky, but Wang Zhanyuan's attack speed is much faster than that of Sun Chuanfang. Therefore, Xu Shuzheng knew that as long as Duan Qirui thought about it over and over again, he would still decide to allocate part of the surplus force to him.

Sure enough, after being angry, Duan Qirui entered the army account with a telegram. Xu Shuzheng followed closely. For a moment, Duan Qirui said, "Wang Zhanyuan's department rested and replenished in the area of Baijia Town, dispatched troops, replenished ammunition, and prepared for the next step of the battle against Anlu."

Duan Qirui is the president of the First Army of the Beiyang Army in Hubei and the governor of Huguang, but now he is the most annoyed and frustrated among the three heroes of Beiyang. Before the war, from Yuan Shikai, the leader of Beiyang, to his Anhui line of the Beiyang army, they all had the greatest hope for him. Yuan Shikai gave him enough power and allocated enough troops. When he received Feng Guozhang's stall, the situation in Hubei was very good. After squeezing Feng Guozhang away, Wang Shizhen played with the highness of not asking about politics. During this period, she was simply infinitely beautiful. But in a blink of an eye, the lofty mountains of Dabie Mountain and the tenacious madman Li entangled him tightly like cowhide candy. As soon as the appointment message arrived, he fell into a struggle between the tenacious Li madman's garrison and the mountain barrier. The beautiful scenery of Yunmengzhi and the bustling three towns of Wuhan have long lost their charm in his eyes. Thinking of the rotten Beijing-Han Railway, he even had a headache.

Beijing Yuan Shikai wrote a message and was very dissatisfied with his performance. Lord Yuan was very angry, and the consequences were very serious...

Feng Guozhang, who was still in Hankou and did not go north, also sent a telegram. He was "deeply worried" about the delay in progress of his attack, and accused the main force of the First Army of the Xiaogan Battalion. If it could not advance as planned, restore the traffic on the Beijing-Han Railway Line, and extinguish the Li Kuangzi Bandit Army, it would inevitably affect the whole " Peace" action.

Duan Qirui, one of the three heroes of Beiyang who can be used to fighting, has never made such an ugliness, and has this kind of eyes.

Duan Qirui, the favorite of Beiyang with outstanding military achievements, has not been accused of this, and has not fallen into such a predicament because of fighting against the Revolutionary Army.

Winning or losing is a common thing in soldiers. As an old soldier, Duan Qirui will not know. But the unexpected failure and unexpected setbacks made him swell up and his head hot. For him, the biggest disaster is the deep-rooted contempt for the mud-legged Li Madman Army. Therefore, after the failure of the Huangcun encirclement and suppression, he was still unwilling to continue to encircle and suppress the madman Li...

Wang Shizhen is greedy. For this purpose, Qirui can only satisfy his greed at this time.

Duan Qirui seems to have seen the situation of Hubei on the surface, but he still wants to find a venue in his bones. Xu Shuzheng can't see this clearly.

Xu Shuzheng hesitated again and again, and decided to report a discovery of his courage to Duan Qirui. How to make a decision depends on how Duan Qirui chooses.

"Your Excellency?" Xu Shuzheng whispered.

Duan Qirui raised his head and looked at Xu Shuzheng: "You Zheng, why are you always hesitant today?"

Xu Shuzheng gritted his teeth and said, "Because our army's attack surface is wide, Li madman is eager to plug loopholes in all directions and frequently mobilize troops to Guangshui and Shangxian line. Unconsciously, a huge narrow gap formed between Guangshui and Shangxian. There is a crack in the complete defense system... Such a big loophole, I guess Li Madman has noticed it, but he must have a reserve in his hand, and our army dares not dare to break in, so he has been ignored... Or, it's a huge trap set by Li Madman..."

Duan Qirui was shocked, and then he was overjoyed. After days of hard fighting, the deadlock still could not be broken, which has made Duan Qirui gradually lose patience. He wished to swallow the disgusting Li crazy revolutionary army in front of him and hit Anlu in one go. He has been thinking hard to completely break the defense system of the Li Crazy Revolutionary Army.

When Xu Shuzheng reported that there was a gap in the defenders, his eyes lit up and quickly walked to the map and thought about the arrows staggered by the attack and defense. The more he looked, the brighter his eyes became and the clearer his mind became. Inserting from the neutral can avoid front obstruction and can also be inserted

The Li madman's defense of the army was far-reaching, which made the Li madman revolutionary army suffer from the enemy and completely shook the defense system of the Li madman revolutionary army.

Thinking of this, the suppressed brain became excited for days, and the heart beat like a drum in the chest. The fighters are fleeting, and we must not give the defenders of the Li Crazy Revolutionary Army an opportunity to adjust. Duan Qirui also found the words "maybe it's a trap" said by Xu Shuzheng, but Duan Qirui, who was about to be driven crazy by Li madman, dared to break through.

He turned around and ordered Gongli's liaison officer, "Send another cavalry reconnaissance force, pick the most elite, and find out the virtual reality of the madman around him..."
