"Don't worry, the little Zhuanghe can't support so many soldiers at all. They will definitely be dispatched in the near future. As long as this gang of mobs are dispatched, they will show their flaws. It will be easy for us to deal with them. What we have to do now It’s just waiting for the opportunity to kill with one blow.”

The matter was exactly as Zhang Tinglan judged. Zhuanghe was not big at all, but thousands of soldiers flooded in all of a sudden, and the inside and outside of the city were full. The people complained a lot.

Moreover, they also asked He Tianjiong for military pay, cotton-padded clothes, and opium.Although He Tianjiong begged a lot of money from Okura Kihachiro, he couldn't spend it casually. He still wanted to occupy the whole of southern Liaoning.

He had to find Gu Renyi to discuss carefully, and the two decided to leave 1000 guards in Zhuanghe, and then personally lead an army of [-] to attack Donggang, and then use Donggang as a base to attack Dandong and Fengcheng in the north.

This battle plan was also approved by Zhuangfan, and the two men immediately led the soldiers to start the operation. Three thousand soldiers left Zhuanghe and went straight north.

"Zhuoyan, He Tianjiong and the others have acted and led [-] soldiers to attack Donggang."

Zhang Tinglan stared at the map, looked carefully, and then said: "Lin Ge, since they have acted, we can't be idle. You see how we can arrange it."

"Originally, we lacked mobility and had some troubles. Now with the help of Commander Ma, everything is much easier. I think we will take the main force to assist Donggang and try to get outside Donggang, and wipe out He Tianjiong and the others in one fell swoop. Battalion Commander Ma led his cavalry to attack Zhuanghe and cut off their retreat, so that He Tianjiong's troops would collapse without a fight."

Zhang Tinglan looked at the map again, thought about Yang Yuting's battle plan carefully, and there were no loopholes, so he basically agreed.

Just when they dispatched troops and generals.Zhang Tinglan frowned, there was always something wrong in her heart.

"Ning Ge. Let's think about it differently. If you were Japanese, would you still support the Revolutionary Party at this time?"

Yang Yuting also hesitated, thought for a while, and then said: "I'm afraid not, since the Zongsha Party is finished. The foundation of the Revolutionary Party in the Northeast is not as good as the Zongshi Party, and the people under it are even more rabble. The party hides first. Wait for a better opportunity instead of acting recklessly."

"Ningge, since you think it's all reckless, wouldn't the Japanese not think of it? Although they are fanatical, they are not idiots!"

"Zhuoyan, what do you mean by that?"

"Ning Ge, I think there is some negligence on our part. Since the Japanese dared to make the Revolutionary Party riot, they must have something to rely on. If we don't find out their backers, we will act rashly. I'm worried that there will be trouble."

Zhang Tinglan thought again and again, looked at the map repeatedly, his brows furrowed deeper, and he asked someone to call the staff officer Zhao Pei over.

"Staff Zhao, are you familiar with the situation in Donggang? Who is in charge of guarding here?"

Zhao Pei followed Ma Longtan for a long time, and knew all the people under Ma Longtan very well, so he said without hesitation: "Fang Wenhua's battalion is in charge of guarding Donggang. One battalion, there are nearly one regiment of defenders here, and there should be no problem dealing with thousands of mobs?"

Zhang Tinglan listened, nodded, and then asked, "Who is Fang Wenhua?"

"He is the younger brother of Fang Wendong, the deputy guard. Respect."

"Zhuoyan, you suddenly asked this. Could it be that you suspect that there will be a loophole on the side of the guard?" Yang Yuting asked in surprise.

Zhang Tinglan sighed, and said: "Things are abnormal, even if Ma Longtan is dissatisfied with our coming, he will not be so indifferent, especially since the properties of the Qing nobles are being cleared everywhere, only the east There is minimal movement."

Zhang Tinglan's reminder made Yang Yuting wake up like a dream, and hurriedly nodded and said: "Humble words are reasonable, there is no need for Ma Longtan to struggle with money, he is not rich, logically speaking, he will not refuse this windfall of."

Ma Longtan's various actions were indeed a bit suspicious. The more Yang Yuting thought about it, the more suspicious he became. Maybe they really overlooked something.

"Ling Ge, it's useless for us to think wildly here, no matter what, even if we rely on our own strength, we must put down this gang of gangsters, and let the heavens have a bright future."

Zhang Tinglan randomly ordered all Fengjun soldiers to mobilize, and Ma Zhanshan and Wu Kaijie commanded a battalion of cavalry to attack Zhuanghe.

"Brother Zhuoyan, I'm not afraid to fight, but it's still a bit difficult to attack a city with only cavalry."

"Don't worry, as long as you get to Zhuanghe, there will be someone in the city to meet you, and there is absolutely no difficulty in occupying the county."

Wu Kaijie also showed a smile on his face when he heard this: "It's Zhuge who dares to be humble, and there are tricks in his pocket, so I can rest assured."

Zhang Tinglan grabbed him and called Ma Zhanshan over: "Battlemaster Ma, Brother Wu, you must not be careless. The Revolutionary Party is a bunch of mobs, but the Japanese are standing behind them, and this is the real trouble." , you can’t take it lightly. And after the recovery of Zhuanghe, you must hold on to it no matter what, no matter how you face anyone, you can’t back down in any way.”

"Head Zhang, is there any bad news?" Ma Zhanshan asked in surprise.

"It's just a bad hunch, so be careful."

"Head Zhang, don't worry, no matter what happens, as long as Ma Zhanshan weighs more than 100 kilograms, Zhuanghe will definitely be able to hold on."

Ma Zhanshan and Wu Kaijie left with their troops. Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting also directed their subordinates to rush towards Donggang. They used the fastest speed along the way and did not dare to carry anything.

Seeing that Donggang was ahead, the investigating soldiers suddenly ran over in a panic.

"Reporting to the head of the regiment, the army of the Revolutionary Party has successfully entered Zhuanghe a few hours ago."

"Is there no resistance?"

"No, I asked the people around, and they said that there was no sign of fighting. It seems that the defenders of Donggang took the initiative to take the rebels in."

Both Zhang Tinglan and Yang Yuting's eyes flashed with astonishment. They were afraid that the last thing they wanted to see happened. Ma Longtan's subordinates really had a problem.

At this time, staff officer Zhao Pei also ran over, his face full of panic: "Commander Zhang, the situation is not good. Fang Wenhua has declared an uprising and joined the army of the Revolutionary Party. What should we do?"

Chapter 174 The Siege Emergency

Fang Wenhua's sudden surrender caught everyone by surprise, and Yang Yuting lost his usual composure and hurriedly said, "Humble words, Fang Wenhua's surrender, will his brother Fang Wendong also have problems?"

The staff officer on the side, Zhao Pei, said with some doubts: "The guardian Fang Wendong has always been very good, how could he betray the guardian?"

"Staff Zhao, as far as you know, what is the relationship between Fang Wendong's brothers?"

"Fang Wenhua is just an idiot, and it was his brother who promoted him." Zhao Pei's face turned red when he said this, and he stopped talking. Obviously, since Fang Wenhua is an idiot, he must not be able to decide such a big matter. Fang Wendong probably participated in it.

"Ningge, the Japanese are really sinister and vicious. Now I'm worried that there is something wrong with Malongtan."

Yang Yuting's face was livid, and he nodded and said: "Although Ma Longtan is a little stupid, he will never give his life to the Japanese. Now that the Fang brothers have rebelled a little bit, they are very likely to cooperate internally and externally. Controlling Ma Longtan is also an inevitable choice."

The atmosphere at the scene was suddenly suppressed to the extreme. The rebels were not terrible, but internal problems were the most serious thing. Fang Wendong was the number two figure after Ma Longtan. Once he rebelled, the entire Dongbian Dao would collapse in an instant. Little Fengtian, not to mention Zhang Tinglan, even Zhang Zuolin can't afford it.

Zhang Tinglan clenched her fists tightly, her joints turned white, and her nails had penetrated into her flesh, but she didn't know it at all.

"It's no wonder that the Japanese insisted on letting the Revolutionary Party revolt when they clearly had no chance of winning. It turns out that they still have such a killer move hidden, and we still underestimate the enemy."

"Zhuoyan, since this is the case, should we give up attacking Donggang and quickly transfer the army back. First defend Xiuyan and other places, then find out the situation in Fengcheng, and then ask the commander for reinforcements. After all, there are tens of thousands of soldiers in Dongfang Road , our power is still too weak."

Yang Yuting was also terrified. They only had one regiment of soldiers, and they were in the hinterland of southern Liaoning. They were surrounded by enemies. The safest way was to stand firm and wait for help.After all, he didn't understand the situation in Fengcheng, so he fought rashly.It is quite risky to bear, Zhang Tinglan's mind spun quickly, thinking carefully about the countermeasures.

The current situation is extremely bad, the entire east road is in danger, and one wrong step is taken.It's going to be forever, Zhang Tinglan can't help but be careless.

He thought and thought.Still shook his head firmly: "Ling Ge. The key word in suppressing rebels throughout the history is fast, the sooner the better, if you don't give them time to prepare, even if there is something wrong with Malongtan, at least I'm sure. Dao's soldiers will not all join the Fang brothers. The morale of the army is not stable, how many people are not scary, but once the delay continues, go to the commander-in-chief. Waiting for reinforcements is a missed opportunity, and the Japanese will also use this time to transport Weapons, diplomatic influence, we can't afford to wait!"

Zhang Tinglan could not afford to wait, which completely woke Yang Yuting up. Her seemingly safe method actually hid the biggest hidden danger, that is, the opponent of Fengjun is not mere rebels, but the Japanese!If there is a disturbance in southern Liaoning, they can expand the garrison under the slogan of maintaining law and order and protecting overseas Chinese. This is what really kills.

"Zhuoyan, it's still reasonable for you to think, what should I do now, I just listen to your order!"

It was also the first time for Zhang Tinglan to encounter such a dangerous situation. He suppressed the waves in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Linge, everything is going according to the original plan. Since the rebels have entered Donggang, let's storm Donggang and take it down. Zhao Staff officer, your task now is to contact all the officers of the Dongbian Road, and you must find out the situation of the Ma Zhenshi."

After Zhang Tinglan's order was issued, all the troops moved quickly, and Yang Yuting asked his subordinates to report the situation to Fengtian as soon as possible, asking for Lao Zhang's support.

The Feng army had fought several field battles, but had no experience in siege. Zhang Tinglan first sent a large number of scouts to investigate the situation, and soon the soldiers came back to report that in the southwest of Donggang, there was a large army camp with thousands of soldiers stationed. If you want to attack the city, you must first win here.

The area of ​​Donggang is not too big, and the number of troops that can be stationed is limited. Originally, Fang Wenhua had a regiment of soldiers in his hands. He Tianjiong and the others brought more than 3000 soldiers, which couldn't be accommodated at all, so they had to camp outside the city.
