super god warlord

The vanguard troops in all directions encountered similar situations. After heavy losses, the revolutionary army gave up the idea of ​​a quick victory.A small army began to advance honestly, clearing house by house.

The Cantonese Army and the Revolutionary Army who stayed in the house fought fiercely. Although the Cantonese Army troops with rich combat experience also used rifles, many of them also carried large knives, and some of them also participated in the battle with bayonets in their hands. .

In the narrow courtyard, it is not easy for the rifle to turn around, and the bullets of the rifle with too strong penetrating power can easily bounce off the wall, accidentally injuring one's own people is common.The revolutionary army did not have such experience. They still rushed into the courtyard with bayonet-mounted rifles, but they often ended up completely wiped out.

A house garrisoned by three or four Cantonese troops often required the sacrifice of more than a dozen revolutionary soldiers to conquer it. The first two regiments that went into the attack were soon disabled.Facing the troops with heavy casualties, the Revolutionary Army Command had no choice but to withdraw them, and replaced them with two regiments to continue the attack.

The revolutionary army was advancing step by step, but the casualties were shocking. The entire sky of Guangdong City was filled with a strong smell of blood, and it almost made me sick to smell it.The soldiers on both sides were already terrified. Regardless of their personal safety, they fought hand-to-hand.Among such a group of soldiers equipped with modern weapons, there was actually a medieval battle scene.

The gunfire of the siege battle was sparse, but the atmosphere in the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army was getting more and more dull. It was already the fifth wave of troops that had been replaced, and almost all of the eight regiments that were withdrawn from the front had more than [-]% casualties. .Even veterans who have been in the army for many years have never seen such a bloody battle. Looking at Jiang Ruiyuan who was sitting there frowning, Zhou Wuhao couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart anymore, and said aloud: "It can't be like this anymore, the revolutionary army The casualties are too great and we must withdraw."

"Withdraw?" Hearing Zhou Wuhao's words, Jiang Ruiyuan stood up: "If we retreat now, wouldn't everyone's blood be shed in vain?"

"We shouldn't fight like this. We are withdrawing now to avoid more casualties. In fact, if we garrison outside the city of Guangdong Province with an elite army, put enough pressure on Chen Jiongming, and then divide our forces to capture Huizhou, Xiangshan, Xinhui, Foshan and other places will definitely be able to uproot Chen Jiongming's territory. When Guangdong Province becomes an isolated city, Chen Jiongming will not be able to afford it even if he wants to defend the city." Zhou Wuhao said the method he had been thinking for so long in one breath, The generals present nodded their heads.Although Zhou Wuhao was not from a military background, this move is indeed very powerful and can directly hit the enemy's vital points.

Hearing this plan, Jiang Ruiyuan was also quite moved. Although there are still some loopholes in the plan, it is very easy to make up for it.According to Zhou Wuhao's statement, the revolutionary army should be able to defeat Chen Jiongming with relatively small losses. After all, with only one city left in Guangdong Province, the Guangdong Army has no intention of defending the city.

After much thought, Jiang Ruiyuan shook his head: "No, since the offensive has already begun, there is no possibility of giving up halfway. I believe that the loyal and brave revolutionary soldiers will open the door to victory with their flesh and blood." At the last moment, Jiang Ruiyuan's self-esteem and ambition Overcoming the desire to win, no matter how much it costs, he must guarantee his absolute authority.

The authority of the commander-in-chief cannot be shaken, and Zhou Wuhao has nothing to do except his expression changes. The bloody close-quarters street fighting is still going on.The Cantonese army in the city also complained endlessly. According to Chen Jiongming's idea, it is better to make use of the advantages of the geographical advantage and the veterans to make the revolutionary army suffer a little bit and dare not enter the city easily.The other party retreated despite difficulties and would not intervene and fire artillery into the populous city of Guangdong Province, so the stalemate between the two sides is beneficial to the Guangdong army.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ruiyuan, with such a brain, would rely on his strength to fight to the end. Now that the revolutionary army has killed more than 2000 people, the Cantonese army has paid the price of more than [-] people.If the fight continues like this, even if the revolutionary army is repelled, the Cantonese army will basically be disabled.The capital of a warlord's livelihood is the army. With soldiers and food in his hands, he naturally doesn't panic.Even if you are talented, highly respected, and have no military power in your hands, no one will take you seriously.

Only warlords can deeply feel the importance of military strength. Chen Jiongming is worried about this at the moment. The strength of the Cantonese Army is less than [-]. If he continues to fight like this, he will become a poor commander.Chen Jiongming also wanted to lead his team to break through, so he retreated to Huizhou City to rest.However, the scouts of the Cantonese army looked around and found that there were a large number of revolutionary troops stationed at various strategic points outside the city of Cantonese, and their weapons were also very powerful. At least the scouts saw a large number of mountain cannons and steel guns Shield's Red Union Maxim heavy machine gun.

If the Cantonese army plans to withdraw from Yuezhou City, they will risk being pinched by the revolutionary army outside the city. Not only will they lose the complex terrain cover of the city, but they will also have to face stronger enemy troops and firepower.Therefore, Chen Jiongming had no choice but to stay in the city and continue to play this kind of flesh and blood grinding game with the revolutionary army.

After dark, the two sides had to stop fighting and rest and eat in their respective occupied areas.It's not that they are unbearable to fight at night, but that after a day of high-intensity hand-to-hand combat, the soldiers on both sides are exhausted and unable to fight anymore.This requires a high degree of concentration, and the unusually fierce battle is too exhausting. If you don't rest for a night, the soldiers on both sides will collapse from both mental and physical.

9Chapter 16 The warlord confers the head

For such a bloody battle, Jiang Ruiyuan was unmoved, and in fact he had no other options.Jiang Ruiyuan, who always brags in front of people that he is a top student in the Japanese Non-commissioned Officer Academy, has far worse military attainments than politics.When Jiang Ruiyuan went to Japan to study, he didn't actually learn any real skills, but he can't blame him entirely.Because according to the regulations of the Japanese country, Hualan students who go to study in the Japanese country need to study the language for two years, and they can't really enroll until they can master the Japanese language fluently.

After enduring the first two years of language learning, Jiang Ruiyuan finally entered the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy, but unfortunately he chose artillery as his major.In that era, before the invention of trucks, the movement of artillery relied on horses, and raising horses became a compulsory course for artillery.

These Hualan students who have just entered school are looked down upon by the Japanese people, so they naturally don't have any good treatment.Jiang Ruiyuan and other newly enrolled students were all assigned to learn how to raise horses.According to the usual practice, Hualan students have to learn the skills of raising horses for a year first, and then enter the orthodox artillery to learn subjects.

Unexpectedly, the democratic revolution broke out before the end of the one-year horse breeding period. These military students studying abroad at official expense lost their source of income and had to return to the country in despair.Jiang Ruiyuan went to the Japanese country for three years, but he learned the Japanese language for two years and raised horses for one year, and he didn't have any military studies at all.

Although he had never studied military affairs, Jiang Ruiyuan regarded himself as an outstanding student of Lu Shi in the Japanese country after returning to China. In addition, he was an old member of the Gongxinghui.As a result, Jiang Ruiyuan was immediately picked by Sun Wenhai and served as his military adviser.Facing Sun Wenhai, who didn't understand military affairs, Jiang Ruiyuan had been influenced by his ears and eyes after all, so he could tell nonsense even if he didn't know it, so he quickly gained Sun Wenhai's trust.Last time he escorted Sun Wenhai all the way to the Yongfeng gunboat, so he was reused by him. This time he attacked Chen Jiongming, his former military adviser, and he became the commander-in-chief grandiosely.

Sun Wenhai would never have imagined in his dreams that Jiang Ruiyuan, whom he thought was the number one military genius of the National Congress, would actually be an embroidered pillow, and this battle was destined to make him feel heartbroken.After losing their way of retreat, the combat effectiveness of the Cantonese Army became stronger and stronger. Its fearless fighting spirit was no different from that of the Revolutionary Army, and the gap in tactical literacy became more and more obvious in street fighting.

The street fighting in Guangdong City lasted for five days, and nearly 2000 revolutionary soldiers died here, becoming innocent souls on the battlefield.If it hadn't been for the discovery that the revolutionary army outside the city was being gradually filled into the battlefield inside the city due to a shortage of troops, and Chen Jiongming had fled with more than [-] remnants of the army under the circumstances of heavy losses, the loss of the revolutionary army might have been even heavier.

After this battle, Chen Jiongming, who retreated to Huizhou, was so angry that he scolded Jiang Ruiyuan for his elm head. Has anyone ever fought like this?Actually relying on the superiority of troops to fight to the death, if he has [-] troops in his hand, he will definitely let the opponent return home.It's a pity that Chen Jiongming no longer had such an opportunity. After reorganizing the revolutionary army, Jiang Ruiyuan continued to attack Huizhou City with [-] troops.

This time the battle was even more disparate. Chen Jiongming's [-] remnants were short of medicine and medicine, as well as weapons and ammunition. They were powerless to defend Huizhou City.However, Huizhou City is too small to replicate the street fighting in Guangdong City.This time the Cantonese army refused to defend the city, but Jiang Ruiyuan once again came to injure the enemy with strength, and defeated the opponent with force.Perhaps this kind of tactic of dropping ten games with one force is the best way for the Cantonese army to take advantage of it. Although the losses are indeed heavy, Chen Jiongming has no chance of making a comeback.

The two sides fought fiercely on the city wall, because the number of artillery on both sides is not large, it is difficult to cause devastating damage to the city wall, so it is no problem to refuse the city in this era.Relying on the five-meter-high thick city wall of Huizhou City, the Cantonese army can shoot down the revolutionary army condescendingly.

The revolutionary army was not to be outdone, and under the cover of focusing fire on dozens of heavy machine guns, the soldiers used temporarily tied ladders to climb the city to fight.Facing the Cantonese army with a strong city, the revolutionary army formed a death squad. They climbed up the ladder desperately with steel knives in their mouths. The battle between the two sides was extremely fierce.

Whenever a Revolutionary Army soldier was killed by a stray bullet and fell to the city, new soldiers would climb up the ladder.No one has the slightest hesitation. For the sake of lofty ideals, they are willing to sacrifice their lives.One side is fighting for the ideal, and the other is the instinct of survival. The intensity of the battle between the two sides can be imagined.

The Cantonese army only had more than 2000 people, which was not enough to defend all the city walls. The revolutionary soldiers quickly occupied part of the city walls, and fierce hand-to-hand combat broke out with the Cantonese army.Rifles, pistols, steel knives, and bayonets have all become advantageous weapons for both sides to fight. Corpses piled up on the city wall and flowed like rivers. Soldiers on both sides even tripped over the corpses.There were blood stains everywhere, severed arms and limbs could be seen everywhere, gunpowder smoke mixed with the smell of blood made it almost impossible to breathe, the battlefield on the city wall turned into Shura Hell, harvesting the lives of soldiers one by one.

In this attack, no one objected to Jiang Ruiyuan's order.Everyone lost the motivation to persuade this stubborn and ruthless commander.What's more, according to the current situation, storming has become the only option.

After six hours of fierce fighting, Huizhou City was captured, and the revolutionary army paid the price of more than 800 people killed in battle, destroying Chen Jiongming's last family fortune. More than 400 Cantonese soldiers died on the spot, and more than [-] were captured. The rest of the soldiers and generals escaped from Huizhou City in the chaos, but Chen Jiongming was not among them.Just before the city was broken, the mad Chen Jiongming killed his family, and then shot himself.

The victory in Huizhou City allowed the revolutionary army to completely wipe out the enemies in the rear, stabilized the base area in eastern Guangdong Province, and laid the foundation for the second Northern Expedition.Despite Jiang Ruiyuan's brilliant victory, the officers were quite critical of him.Such a victory was won by relying on the lives of more than 3 revolutionary troops, so such a tragic victory is not worth mentioning.Many people even said in private that if Zhou Wuhao's suggestion was followed, the number of casualties in the revolutionary army's victory should not exceed [-].

Jiang Ruiyuan would not pay any attention to these claims, as long as he could win, he didn't care how much it cost.He only knows that these troops are not his direct descendants, and he has already gained enough military exploits.

Although Sun Wenhai was heartbroken by the heavy sacrifice of the revolutionary army, they still issued an order to commend the participating troops and promoted Jiang Ruiyuan.This battle completely defeated Chen Jiongming, but it also completely ruined the possibility of resuming the Northern Expedition in the short term. The revolutionary army had to reorganize troops for training, which required a lot of time and money.

9Chapter 17 The Weird Well

For the forces that they want to support, the Honglian government spared no effort, and the free aid of 200 million gold rubles was quickly sent to Sun Wenhai.Of course, Bunin would not admit that he was meddling in Hualan's internal affairs in an attempt to provoke a civil war. Instead, he pretended to support Sun Wenhai to unify Hualan and avoid further expansion of the civil war.

With the new funds in place, the revolutionary army began to expand aggressively.Sun Wenhai reorganized the Grand Marshal's Mansion in Guangdong City, proclaimed himself the Grand Marshal of the Navy and Army of the Eastern Guangdong Military Government, and ordered the army to prepare for war, ready for another Northern Expedition at any time.Jiang Ruiyuan has also accepted a new mission. He will lead the "Dr. Sun Wenhai delegation" to Honglian to investigate its politics and economy, hoping to gain experience in establishing a new country in Hualan.However, because the current territory of the Red United Kingdom is only the western part of the continent, they can only go around the Suez Canal by sea, make a big circle around the western continent, and land in St. Petersburg. This journey will take them at least half a year time.

At the same time, the third congress of the Hualan Communist Party was held in Chengdongshan Orphanage Hospital, Guangdong Province.More than 30 delegates attended the meeting, representing 420 party members across the country. Marin, the representative of the Third International, also attended the meeting.

Under Marin's call, the Communist Party determined the policy of fully joining the National Congress Party in its own name and establishing a revolutionary united front with the National Congress Party in order to complete the revolutionary task of anti-imperialism and feudalism.The General Assembly elected members of the Central Bureau composed of Chen Qingtong, Zhang Tailei, Gao Junyu and others. At the same time, Chen Qingtong was the chairman of the Executive Committee. This leader of the Communist Party in the south finally took the highest position in the Hualan Communist Party.

The alliance between the National Congress Party and the Communist Party indicates that a larger-scale civil war is about to start in Hualan, and at this time, a huge crisis is brewing in Wa, which is across the sea from Hualan.

Sachiko was an ordinary housewife living in Dongchencheng, the capital of Japan. When the morning of September [-], [-] came, she got up early as usual.Drawing water from the well in the yard, Sachiko wanted to cook a delicious breakfast to feed her husband who was about to start work and the children who were going to school.

When she came to the pressurized well in her yard with a bucket as usual, she pressed the handle to pressurize the water.As the handle moves up and down repeatedly, the water flows through the water outlet and flows into the bucket intermittently.After working for about 10 minutes, the bucket was full of water. Sachiko wiped the sweat from her forehead and bent down to lift the bucket.

When Xingzi approached the bucket and saw the water inside, she couldn't help frowning slightly: "What's wrong today? The water was very clear before, why is it so muddy today?" Xingzi shook her head, and she casually The water was splashed on the flower beds in the courtyard, and the water pressure started again.

After working hard for a long time, when Sachiko checked the bucket again, he found that the water inside was still extremely turbid.Sachiko sighed, she had to let the water sit for a while, and waited for the turbidity to settle before using it again.Taking advantage of this time, Sachiko was busy making breakfast.Pickled radish and natto are side dishes that go with the meal, and grilled saury is a must. In autumn, the saury in Japan is in the harvest season, and the price is cheap and can be seen everywhere.

Sachiko is good at housework and always does things quickly and well. Unfortunately, because of the water, steaming rice and making miso soup were a little late today, and she was reprimanded by her husband.Even though she knew it was a water problem, Sachiko didn't refute it. In the Japanese country, men have a high status, and women in the family must never refute men.Apart from apologizing, Sachiko didn't give any reason, he just put more care in making the lunch for her husband.

It takes her husband a whole day to go to work, and he doesn't come back for lunch, so she has to take care of the bento so that he can have a delicious meal at noon.Although the lives of the people in the Wa country are still relatively difficult, even worse than those in the Western Special Zone, Sachiko still tries her best to prepare better meals for her husband.Today's rice balls not only put salt and crushed seaweed, but she also specially added a plum.

After seeing off her husband and children, Sachiko was relieved that she could relax a little bit for the rest of the day.Before cleaning the house, she had to feed the chickens and go out to buy some ingredients, but when Sachiko came to the chicken coop, she found that the few hens and roosters in the house were extremely restless, and they didn't stay in the chicken coop at all , but running back and forth outside, the rooster is still singing loudly, as if something terrible is about to happen.

Sachiko sprinkled some bran and shredded vegetable leaves. These foods, which were usually snapped up by the hens, were now given a cold reception.Sachiko didn't pay too much attention to this, she thought that as long as she waited for a while, the chickens would always eat.After leaving the chicken coop, Sachiko put on clean clothes, stepped into a small bamboo basket, and went out into the street.

Strange things happened one after another in the street market today. The Tosa dogs kept barking wildly, as if they were frightened by something. The fish in the river jumped out of the water one after another, which surprised her very much.On the road, Xingzi met a few old women she knew well, and after chatting with each other, Xingzi realized that the wells of each house were full of muddy water this morning.

"It must have been done by the engineering team in the west. They said they were going to build a building, so they had to dig a deep foundation. They probably destroyed the water source." An old lady named Guangzi said angrily.

"Perhaps." Sachiko didn't care too much about this, and the turbidity of the well water didn't bother her too much. At most, she fetched water in advance and let it settle.These people chattered about the well water, but no one thought of the right direction. Under such nonsense, many ladies came to the market.Sachiko skillfully bargained with vendors, which is what she is good at, and soon she bought some potatoes and saury at a cheap price, and filled her small bamboo basket completely.

Feeling that she had gained enough, Sachiko returned home with a bamboo basket.After some tidying up, the house was cleaned spotlessly, and the tatami mats were shiny.Sachiko breathed a sigh of relief, it was almost noon, and she was about to start preparing lunch.Although the husband doesn't go home for dinner, the son has to leave school, and the meals for the mother and son also require some effort.

Lighting the charcoal in the stove, Sachiko boiled a pot of water first, thinking that she should cook something delicious for her son today, maybe the delicious fish soup can make him happy.Just when the water was about to boil, Sachiko suddenly felt rumbles coming from the ground, the loud sound was louder than the cheers of the United Fleet when it left the port.

Chapter 948 Dongchen Earthquake

Sachiko listened curiously, but couldn't figure out the reason for the sound, but she gave up quickly.As a housewife, the time to make lunch is very tight, and she has no time to waste on frivolous things.

Just when Sachiko turned around to get the newly bought fresh saury, the ground suddenly trembled.The tremor was so strong that Sachiko lost her footing and fell onto the tatami.However, something more serious happened. The burning charcoal stove was reversed due to violent vibrations, and the fiery red charcoal was immediately sprinkled on the dry wooden tatami.

Sachiko's face changed, she struggled to get up, and went to find something to store the charcoal to prevent fire.However, it was too late, the charcoal had already been burned red, and its spread was so wide that it was difficult to collect it in a short time.

Soon the flame ignited the paper sliding door, and then the entire wooden house was plunged into billowing flames.Sachiko screamed and rushed out of the house, wanting to ask the neighbors for help to put out the fire together.But when she ran out of the house, what she saw shocked her.

Because it was lunch time, every family was cooking with charcoal stoves. As a result, under the shaking of the earthquake, many families, like Sachiko's house, were on fire.The fierce fire was getting bigger and bigger, and thick smoke rose from every corner of the entire East Morning City. Many people carried buckets and desperately put out the fire.However, the second wave of more violent earthquakes came again. This time the shaking was bigger than the last time, and many people lost their footing and immediately became gourds.Many burning houses clicked and turned into a broken fire.

"Earthquake, it's on fire." People on the street shouted everywhere, and many people braved the danger of an earthquake to fight the fire.The earthquake became more and more violent, and soon exceeded everyone's imagination.As waves of earthquakes struck, huge gaps opened on the ground, and many people fell in unexpectedly. After a scream, they disappeared into the bottomless abyss.
