Total War Predator

Feng Yuxiang hurriedly asked someone to send a telegram to Zhang Zhijiang, but he couldn't be reached.Feng Yuxiang's heart went cold, and his mind was over, it was probably more ominous than ominous.

He also has acquaintances in Shanxi. After many inquiries, the news finally came.The troops of both divisions had been disarmed and were now prisoners.

"Niang Xipi, Yan Xishan is too timid. The surrender of 10,000+ troops is really a disgrace to the people of Shanxi." Said a bald man with a Fenghua accent.

"Yan Xishan has no choice but to leave the green hills behind. I am not afraid of running out of firewood. If it were me, I would endure the pain for a while. If there is territory, someone will make a comeback. If the troops are really wiped out and the territory is gone, then It's really over." A slightly fat person beside him laughed.

"When he does this, Feng Yuxiang's side is under even greater pressure. Now the financial pressure is very high. The troops of the ten armies cost nearly one million a month in military pay alone. Originally, Feng Yuxiang wanted to contain the Northwest Army and Wu Peifu in the north. We Swinging troops to the north, we can easily take down Sun Chuanfang and Wu Peifu. Now the plan has come to nothing.” The bald head is not someone else but the famous principal, and now he does not have the high spirits of later, but his face is depressed.

"Sun Chuanfang is just empty now. He was defeated in Xuzhou and lost more than a dozen brigades in Jiangsu. Wu Peifu has long since lost his former glory, and his few tens of thousands of troops have been transferred to the north. Zhang Anle will not be content with just As the king of the Northwest, he is now thinking about the Southwest. Now is the best time for the Northern Expedition, to capture Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Fujian, and Zhejiang. Divide the world, if we don't fight now, when Feng Yuxiang is defeated, Wu Peifu returns to the army, and Sun Chuanfang rests his troops, it will be much harder to fight at that time." The fat man who spoke was the newly appointed National Revolutionary Zhang Qun, General Counselor and Member of the Military Commission of the General Command of the Army.

After listening to Zhang Qun's analysis, the headmaster nodded frequently, obviously very satisfied with Zhang Qun's thoughts.

"Very good, next we will launch a propaganda campaign to create momentum for the Northern Expedition." The principal stood up and said excitedly, as if he had seen the beautiful blueprint drawn by Zhang Qun.

"Yan Xishan also surrendered, this time Zhang Anle's wings are completely hardened. Mongolia, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Gansu, Shaanxi, Suiyuan, Chahar plus Jiangsu and Shanxi, the entire territory of nine provinces." In Fengjun headquarters, Chief of Staff Yang Yuting said to Zhang Zuolin with envy and hatred after knowing the news.

Zhang Zuolin looked at Yang Yuting and said nothing, his mind is now full of how to send troops to defeat Feng Yuxiang.Now that Shanxi was taken down by Zhang Anle, he withdrew his troops back.Now without the restraint of the Northwest Army, Feng Yuxiang can invest more troops in the Zhili area.What time is it now, Yang Yuting doesn't want to think about how to fight against the enemy, he thinks about the territory every day, maybe he is crazy about the territory.

In fact, Zhang Zuolin was quite taken aback. He didn't expect Yan Xishan, who had a strong army, to be so vulnerable. It seemed that Zhang Anle had to be reassessed.

"The Northwest Army is really powerful. It has only been a few days since Yan Xishan was beaten and surrendered. It seems that my choice was right. As soon as the troops of the Northwest Army are in place, we will pull them out to practice with Liu Xiang and let him know. If you want to be the king of Sichuan, you have to pass my test first." Yuan Mingzu, who was in Chongqing, said to his subordinates.

"I'm sorry, General, our mission has failed again. The Yamada-kun we sent out has been broken." Kawata Meiji bowed his body, and he was very sad, not because of Yamada's death, but because the fortress of the Northwest Army had not yet been conquered. .

"This is not enough. We still need to find talents from within the enemy. What I am worried about is not the issue of spies, but the issue of Zhang Anle's development. I never thought that in just one year, he has now become China's largest A warlord. This makes me feel very uneasy, I have a premonition that there will be a war between us in the future. And I still don’t understand why Zhang Anle has such a big resentment towards the empire.” Kwantung Army Commander Bai Chuanyi Then he didn't take Yamada's death seriously, he was concerned about other things.

"By the way, what's going on with Zhang Zuolin?" Bai Chuanyi stopped thinking about this future enemy and began to care about immediate interests.

"Don't mention this bastard, he is now denying the account. Because we were all verbal agreements at the time, and there was no written agreement, he wanted to deny the account. Later, he finally admitted that there was this agreement, because the fifth item is the above four items The detailed implementation method will be decided by the diplomatic agencies of Japan and China through joint consultation. He pushed the matter to the diplomatic agencies, but the diplomatic agencies said that they could not make the decision, so let us go to their commander. Once Mr. Inoue and I were in his Waiting for him in the living room, he shouted in another room, "The Japanese don't show friendship and come to take the opportunity to threaten me. I will risk my skin and don't want it anymore. I can't sell the rights of the country. Let people call me a traitor and call the children and grandchildren the same." Everyone will be scolded, that can't be done!'”

Kawata Meiji said the anger on his face here, obviously he was greatly stimulated by Zhang Zuolin.

"We went to him a few times later, either he was not there, or he asked us to negotiate with the diplomatic agency. It seems that we were tricked by him." The anger in Kawata Meiji's eyes seemed to be burning, "So I suggest restarting the general plan and killing Zhang Zuolin , let Zhang Xueliang take over, this young one is easier to deal with than the old one."

Chapter 61 Establishing Armored Divisions

This time Guo Songling's rebellion dealt a great blow to Zhang Zuolin. He never thought that one of his trusted subordinates would actually bring his best troops to rebel against him.This made him a little suspicious, and he didn't even trust Yang Yuting like before.

What's more, this blow is not just mental, the most important thing is that his strength has been weakened too much in this war.Originally not counting the troops inside the pass, only the four provinces outside the pass, Zhang Zuolin had 30 troops.

This time the most elite tens of thousands of people rebelled with Guo Songling. Not to mention more than half of the elite troops were killed and injured, the 30 troops outside the pass also suffered tens of thousands of casualties.After this battle, Zhang Zuolin can be said to be seriously injured.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly, Zhang Zuolin felt that the officials who had been released were no longer under his control.Needless to say, Zhang Anle had already gone out independently.Zhang Zongchang now has more than 30 troops, which is more than his own troops. It will be impossible for him to be like before in the future.Jiang Dengxuan already had an opinion on himself, and this time he transferred troops to Zhang Zongchang without going through it himself.

Thinking about it now, Guo Songling's opinion was correct. After winning Zhili and Shandong, he shouldn't still think about Anhui and Jiangsu.That's right, the territory has expanded, but what about the consequences?His own strength declined rapidly.Thinking of this, Zhang Zuolin actually felt a sense of frustration. He had been sitting on the throne of the President that he had been dreaming about for more than half a year, but except for the name of a President, it was no different from being in the Northeast.But now that I have reached this point, I can no longer retreat. I am like a pawn on a chessboard, I can only move forward but not backward.

Thinking of this, he felt full of motivation, as long as he took down Feng Yuxiang.The situation will be much better, Northeast still let Xiaoliuzi take care of it.After firming up my mind.He began to think about how to use troops against Feng Yuxiang.

After occupying Beijing and Tianjin, Feng Yuxiang saw that Wu Peifu did not agree to reconcile with him, so he did not oust Duan Qirui, and Duan Qirui continued to be his prime minister.Feng Yuxiang and Duan Qirui had a friendship. When Zhang Zongchang wanted to kill Feng Yuxiang, Feng Yuxiang hid in Duan Qirui's house.This time he was begging against Zhang Zuolin, not Duan Qirui.

Duan Qirui is also very knowledgeable.After Lu Zhonglin captured Rehe, he issued an order to appoint Lu Zhonglin as the governor of Rehe.Song Zheyuan, who had captured Tianjin, was appointed as the governor of Zhili. Together with Feng Yuxiang's Henan Province, the National Army suddenly owned the territory of three provinces. &&

Zhang Zuolin, who lost his land, was unhappy, and Feng Yuxiang, who gained more land, was even more unhappy.He knew how to take down the undefended Jehol.Or defeated Li Jinglin who was fighting alone.It's not something to brag about.Now I am surrounded by powerful enemies, and I may be besieged at any time.Whether it was Zhang Zongchang, Wu Peifu, or Jiang Dengxuan, they all looked like hungry wolves with red eyes, wanting to pounce on them and bite them.By the way, there is also Zhang Anle, this guy is not even a thing.He actually asked Yan Xishan to hand over the weapons of his two divisions.I heard that he was going to build the railway, and he used these people as coolies. After the railway was completed, he would release them.It's just too bullying!

Zhang Anle has woken up from sleep these past few days with a smile. After winning Shanxi, the available I increased from 40 to 46, and the second-level technology group of Taiyuan Arsenal was added.What's more, Shanxi is a large energy province, with an increase of more than 30% in energy output.Makes him happy too.

Zhang Anle, who was in a happy mood, looked at the tanks shipped from Mongolia and it seemed that they were not so ugly, with the help of the Soviets.After mastering the light tanks of World War I, the Mongolian Automobile Factory quickly built a prototype of the Renault FT17 tank.

After the experiment, finally finalized the production.This is the first batch of 10 vehicles, which were sent to Xi'an according to Zhang Anle's instructions.

Renault FT17 can be said to have achieved a good balance between ideal design and operational requirements.Its overall design is: the engine, gearbox, and driving wheels are behind, and the driving and other operating devices are in front, and only one driver is needed.Its turret is located in the middle front of the vehicle body. It has the commanding height of the whole vehicle and can be rotated 1 degrees.Today's tanks in the world basically have this structure.

Zhang Anle was preparing to meet his senior, Fu Zuoyi, who had the skill of an armored commander.Zhang Anle took a closer look and found that Fu Zuoyi didn't have this skill yet. He still only has a defense theory. The function of this special skill is that if he defends with troops, his efficiency will increase by 10%.

Since the Jin army had all surrendered to the Northwest Army, there was no such establishment as the Jin army now, and Fu Zuoyi was transferred to the headquarters by Zhang Anle.Although Yan Xishan was 100% reluctant, he couldn't help the matter until now.

"Report to the commander, Staff Officer Fu is here." Wang Xiaozhu walked up to Zhang Anle and gave a military salute.

"Let him come here." Zhang Anle returned a military salute to Wang Xiaozhu and ordered at the same time.

Fu Zuoyi received a call from the headquarters last night, and Commander Zhang asked him to go to the Xi'an military training camp at 9 o'clock this morning.Fu Zuoyi didn't dare to neglect, got up early in the morning, tidied up, washed up and came to the military training camp.

After getting the notice that he was allowed to go in, Fu Zuoyi tidied up his clothes carefully.He's wearing a full military uniform today, so he just needs a little tweaking.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, Fu Zuoyi, the staff officer of the Northwest Army Headquarters, has been ordered to report here." Fu Zuoyi gave a military salute to Zhang Anle.

"Haha, is the senior here? Please take a seat." Zhang Anle was very happy to see Fu Zuoyi coming to report, and hurried him to sit down.

"The commander-in-chief still calls me Yisheng." Fu Zuoyi was still a little cautious. Although Zhang Anle was seven years younger than him, he was now his boss.

"Then don't call me Commander-in-Chief, call me Bo Wei." Zhang Anle also said upon seeing this.

"This is not acceptable, etiquette cannot be discarded." Fu Zuoyi waved his hand quickly and said.

Hearing the familiar four words, etiquette cannot be dismissed.Zhang Anle finally knew about Zhang Xueliang's mood at that time.At that time, he used etiquette to block Zhang Xueliang's mouth, and now some people use this sentence to block their own mouths.

"It's up to you, Yisheng, have you seen this thing before?" Zhang Anle pointed to Zuoyi, more than 30 meters away from the two of them.

"Is this a tank?" Fu Zuoyi had never seen the real thing, but only saw it once in a newspaper, so he asked in an uncertain tone.

"That's right, this is a tank. Although it looks a bit ugly, it is a tank made by us in Northwest China. This is a copy of the French FT17. With the help of Soviet experts, we have improved the action part of the tank and improved the tank's performance. The driving speed has made the maximum speed reach 16 kilometers per hour, and the travel distance can reach 160 kilometers." Zhang Anle said with some pride.

Self-produced tanks!Hearing this, Fu Zuoyi was a little surprised. You must know that the Taiyuan Arsenal can only produce guns and ammunition now.Unexpectedly, Zhang Anle can even build a tank now, the gap between the two is too big.

"After the world war, the role of tanks on the battlefield has become more and more important, and they have attracted more and more attention from various countries. They have formed armored divisions one after another. I also want to build an armored force. What do you think?" Zhang Anle gave Fu Zuoyi introduced the current situation of the armored division, and then asked.

Fu Zuoyi immediately understood Zhang Anle's intentions. He wanted to be the commander of the armored division himself.

"The existence of tanks has indeed changed the way and means of warfare to a certain extent. Tanks have armor, and ordinary bullets can't do anything to them. Concentrating tanks can break through the enemy's defense line, or use tanks to outflank. More importantly Yes, it can provide powerful fire support, and with armored divisions, the tactics and tactics of the troops can be enriched. It is also necessary to establish armored divisions.” Fu Zuoyi briefly talked about his own understanding, he had never thought about these things before, This is all I can think of when I see the tank now.

"Tanks will continue to improve and innovate. The speed will become faster and longer, and the range will be longer and longer. The armor will become thicker and thicker. At that time, the tank can really be called a tank." Zhang Anle knows no more than him, He was not a military fan in his previous life, and he only knows more about guns in this era.

"If that's the case, the tank can block a moving fortress, and the soldiers will follow behind, which can reduce the net of the soldiers." Fu Zuoyi heard Zhang Anle say that the armor would become thicker and thicker, and he blurted out with a flash of inspiration.

"Haha, that's great. You have thought so much at once. It seems that my vision is still very accurate. This time, the first batch of 10 tanks was shipped from Mongolia. I want to set up an armored division. How about you as the division commander. Zhang Anle praised himself, and then looked at Fu Zuoyi expectantly.

"I'm very happy to be the commander of China's first armored division." Fu Zuoyi didn't know anything about these things, but he always felt that he was very eager to be the commander of this armored division, so he nodded and agreed.

Seeing that Fu Zuoyi agreed, Zhang Anle was also very happy, and felt much more at ease in handing over the armored division to him. "Okay, the armored division will be handed over to you, and the selection of soldiers is up to you. The training venue is here. You have a heavy burden on your shoulders, because we don't have training methods and tactics in our country, and now there are all in the world. Exploration. Hard work is for sure, but I don’t care how you train, as long as I am always able to be a battlefield force, I hope you will not disappoint my expectations.”

"Don't worry, I promise to give you a lively armorer!" Fu Zuoyi stood up and gave Zhang Anle a military salute, and said seriously.

"Well, I hope so. In the future, there will definitely not be only one armored division, but an armored group, or there may be armored soldiers. How far this new army can go is up to you." To be continued. .
