Beiyang reactionaries

This is correct.

Troops need to keep learning, and officers need to keep improving their tactical capabilities.It's a pity that Bai Langjun doesn't have this condition, nor does he have this ability.After being ambushed by Duan Xun's troops, it was impossible to effectively organize troops to break through.In comparison, although Duan Xun's side was fighting for the first time, the troops were deployed in an orderly manner, making full use of the firepower of the troops.

"They have more guns than people?"

"It should be that they picked up a lot of the weapons that Han Yukun left behind when they collapsed. Many of their horses carried a lot of rifles and bullets."

"kindness."

Duan Xun nodded.

With so many rifles seized in World War I, Duan Xun will soon be able to expand another regiment as long as the higher-ups organize them.Nearly a thousand rifles, and four heavy machine guns, not bad, really good.

"commander."

"Deying (Wan Xuancai), what's the matter?"

"Han Yukun's troops collapsed so badly that even Han Yukun himself didn't know where he went, and he didn't know whether he died in the battle or ran away. So I directly gathered the scattered troops and those who had just gathered around The troops have all been incorporated, and there are about four hundred people."

Wanxuan happily ran over.

"More than 400 people?"

Duan Xun frowned.

Duan Xun looked down on Zhensong Army.Whether it is combat effectiveness or other aspects, it is not so good.So Duan Xun thought for a while and said: "Most of them have been dismissed, let them find Liu Zhenhua. You can see if there are any useful people among these people, mainly to see if there are any literate ones, and others are not needed. Remember, Leave all the weapons. If Liu Zhenhua wants it later, he can redeem it with money.”

Soldier?

The most indispensable thing in this era is soldiers.

The soldiers of the Song Army in Liu Zhenhua Town may not have strong combat effectiveness, but all of them are from bandits, their military discipline is very poor, and they are all veterans.Now that Duan Xun has money and weapons, he can find some honest farmers, as many as he wants.Far better than those in Zhensong Army.

"Yes."

"Where's the weapon?"

"Commander, there are quite a few. Han Yukun's department even had a lot of bullets unopened, and they were attacked by the Bailang army, and the weapons and ammunition they dropped were everywhere. I got about 600 rifles, and There are a lot of bullets, the specifics have not been counted yet.”

"Okay, nice job."

Duan Xun encouraged Wan Xuancai.

"Brother Jing'an (Jiang Hongyu), immediately send Li Jishen to Luoning, and start raising the flag to recruit troops. This time, Chief Duan will at least give us an extra regiment, maybe a brigade directly."

"it is good."

Jiang Hongyu left in a hurry.

"commander."

At this time Xu Yongchang ran over.Xu Yongchang is now not only the director of operations, but also Duan Xun's adjutant.

"How about it?"

"Henan governor Zhang Zhenfang called: reward our department with five thousand silver dollars, and all militia groups in eight counties including Luoning, Shanzhou, and Lingbao will be under the command of the commander."

"it is good."

This time it really paid off.

There were only 130 troops casualties in this battle, and they won a big victory.Moreover, the seizure was very rich, with more than 500 rifles, and now Zhang Zhenfang was rewarded with [-] silver dollars.Although five thousand silver dollars is not a lot, it is not a lot.

Five thousand silver dollars is enough to pay Duan Xun's troops for two months.

This is just Zhang Zhenfang's reward.This time, there will be a reward from the Ministry of the Army for the big victory this time. Maybe Yuan Shikai will also reward Duan Xun when he is happy.This battle was really cost-effective.

"Give the order to the following. Hurry up and pack up and go home."

"Yes."

17 military expansion

"Degong (Duan Xun), congratulations. You've become the brigade commander right now."

Great victory.

A real victory.

Since Bai Lang appeared in front of everyone, the Beiyang Army organized several encirclement campaigns, but Bai Lang ran away.Moreover, Bai Lang's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and he keeps attacking the city.

So much so that even President Yuan Shikai knew about Bai Lang.

the first time.

The Beiyang Army fought against Bai Lang and won a great victory for the first time.Duan Xun wiped out Bai Lang's troops.In order to cover up the failure of being teased by Bai Lang's main force, Zhang Zhenfang sternly praised Duan Xun in the telegram.

With a swipe of the pen, he directly said that Duan Xun had annihilated more than 2000 people in Bai Lang, and then said that Bai Lang was defeated and fled to Runing.

This good news came to Xu Shuzheng, who had just served as the deputy chief of the army.Duan Xun is a general of the Anhui lineage, and he is the most direct lineage officer.So of course Xu Shuzheng also wrote words of praise, and then sent the good news to Duan Qirui.

Although Duan Qirui doesn't know Duan Xun, but seriously, Duan Xun is also a student of Duan Qirui.

Just like Chiang Kai-shek later.

Except for the students in the first period of the Whampoa Military Academy, Chiang Kai-shek actually had little contact with the students from the second period.Not to mention the fourth and fifth phases later, plus the Army Officer University developed from the Whampoa Military Academy, etc., it has little to do with Chiang Kai-shek, and more than 90.00% of those students do not know Chiang Kai-shek.

But the students who graduated from these schools would call Lao Jiang "principal" when they saw Lao Jiang, and they all regarded themselves as Lao Jiang's students.Because this is the simplest clinging relationship.

In fact, the relationship between Duan Xun and Duan Qirui is like this.

Duan Xun is Zhao Litai's lover, it's real.But speaking of it, Duan Xun can call Duan Qirui "teacher" or "principal" when he meets Duan Qirui.Because when Duan Qirui was the supervisor of Baoding Military Academy, Duan Xun was studying in Baoding Military Academy.After Duan Qirui heard Xu Shuzheng's explanation, he knew that Duan Xun was the student of Zhao Litai, his favorite general, and he could be regarded as his student.What's more important is that Duan Xun is still young, so he is very happy to have such a result, and the reward is very generous.

In the end, Duan Xun's name reached Yuan Shikai's ears.

Yuan Shikai hated Bai Lang very much.It's not how powerful Bai Lang is.Bai Lang's strength is really nothing in front of the Beiyang Army.Yuan Shikai also knew that Bai Lang couldn't afford any big waves.

Don't look at Bai Lang's dancing now, but compared with the Revolutionary Party, its influence is too weak.

But the reason why Yuan Shikai remembers Bai Lang firmly is because the place where Bai Lang is currently active is his hometown.This is what Yuan Shikai is most angry about.The Beiyang Army's hands and feet in Henan are also related to this.

The Beiyang Army must not allow Bai Lang to enter Yuan Shikai's hometown.

Now that Duan Xun had wiped out Bai Lang's troops in the first battle, Yuan Shikai was very happy, and finally gave Duan Xun a reward of [-] silver dollars with a swipe of a pen, and promoted Duan Xun's military rank, making Duan Xun a major general.

"Brother Tongchun, I'm also very surprised."

brigadier.
