Beiyang reactionaries

Otherwise, those powerful factions in Hunan, including those big figures in the military and political circles, would not force Liang Huankui to give up his shares.Moreover, Huachang Company was founded by several brothers of Liang Huankui. Unexpectedly, Liang Huankui was going to sell Huachang Company.

It is very easy to sell.

Because now there are not just one or two people who are eyeing Huachang Company.

"Well. Since I can't stay in Changsha, I'm going to go to Sichuan to do a big job."

"Hey--"

Long Furui didn't say anything.

Because Long Furui knew that those people persecuted Liang Huankui and hurt Liang Huankui severely.Now seeing the discipline of Duan Xun's army, and the fact that Duan Xun sent people to recruit these people to invest in Sichuan, they all attracted Liang Huankui in front of him.

What else can I say.

"Then Liang Gong, I wish you all the best."

152 Winning the Hunan Army 1

"How's it going?"

Mess.

The whole of Hunan is a mess.At present, there are soldiers and horses from all walks of life in Hunan. If we talk about their origins, there are probably more than a dozen factions.Lu Rongting's troops alone are divided into Guangxi Army and Guangdong Army, and the Guangdong Army currently in Hunan also distinguishes between the Guangdong Army that obeys Lu Rongting's orders and the Guangdong Army that obeys Sun Yat-sen's orders.There are also foreign troops of Wang Wenhua's Dharma Protector Guizhou Army.

The same is true for the Hunan Army.

There are troops that take orders from Tan Yankai, there are troops that take orders from Cheng Qian, and there are also Xiangxi troops that have their own system, and of course the troops that take refuge in Duan Qirui.As for the factions of the Beiyang Army, there are more.

Duan Xun's troops, Cao Kun's Zhili troops, Zhang Jingyao's Seventh Division, Ni Sichong's Anwu Army, Zhang Huaizhi's Lu Army, Zhang Zuolin's Feng Army, Yan Xishan's Jin Army, Zhou Ti's Henan Army, and the Jiangxi Army Troops, anyway, there are always nearly ten troops from different places.

With so many troops from different sources fighting in Hunan, how can Hunan be stable.Because these troops have different attributes from each other, there are many conflicts between them.They seem to be allies on the surface, but there are many people who have bad relations in private.

In the same Lu Rongting army, the relationship between the Gui army and the Guangdong army is not good.Tan Haoming, the former governor of Guangxi, favored his Gui army and rejected the Guangdong army.Similarly, the Cantonese Army did not listen to Tan Haoming's orders very much.Moreover, in the same Guangdong army, the relationship between the troops that obeyed Lu Rongting and the troops that obeyed Sun Yat-sen was not good.The same Hunan Army troops, Tan Yankai's direct descendants and Cheng Qian's troops are constantly dirty with each other.

The same is true for the Beiyang Army.

Cao Kun's troops and Duan Qirui's troops seem to be incompatible. They support Duan Qirui's troops, and there are also such discordant troops as Duan Xun and Zhang Jingyao.The relationship between these troops is very complicated. They seem to be enemies, but they might not fight.It seems that they are allies, but in private, they can't wait for the other party to disappear.

So everywhere is mess.

Among the many troops in Hunan, the Hunan Army is still in the worst situation.One was left behind by Tan Haoming, and could only be the main force of the Hunan Army led by Cheng Qian who retreated to Hengyang.Because since Changsha was conquered by the Beiyang Army, Zhang Huaizhi, the governor of Shandong, also wanted a piece of the pie, so he also started to exert his strength.Currently attacking Xiangtan, preparing to go south to attack Hengyang.Cheng Qian and his group of remnants and defeated generals are currently building a defense line, preparing to deal with Zhang Huaizhi.

Another is the Xiangxi troops of Zhang Xueji, Tian Yingzhao, and Zhou Zefan who were driven out of Changde by Duan Xun's troops. They are currently the worst troops.Cheng Qian's troops still occupy Hengyang anyway, relying on Hengshan and Hengyang to resist the Beiyang Army.However, the Xiangxi army is currently completely lingering.

Not even a better place to stay.

The troops kept retreating, starting from Changde, arriving at Taoyuan, then retreating from Taoyuan to Anhua, now all retreating to Xinhua, and then retreating to Baoqing.At present, Baoqing is Tan Haoming's base camp, where Tan Haoming's direct line Gui army is stationed.Xiangxi troops will not go to this place.

Because the Xiangxi army and Tan Haoming are in a hostile relationship.

When Tan Haoming entered Changsha, he served as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces of the three provinces of Hunan, Guangdong, and Guangxi. He also served as the governor of Hunan. Hunan's military and political affairs depended on Tan Haoming.However, these troops in western Hunan formed their own system after the Revolution of [-], and no one with so many Hunan governors could control these western Hunan troops.Tan Yankai served as the governor of Hunan. They can admit that after all, Tan Yankai is a well-known figure in Hunan and a member of Hunan.

But what are you, Tan Haoming?

Especially after Sun Yat-sen and Lu Rongting fell out, the Xiangxi troops supported Sun Yat-sen, not Lu Rongting.So when Tan Haoming entered Changsha, these Xiangxi troops were the only ones among the Hunan Army troops who did not recognize Tan Haoming's position.

They opposed Tan Haoming's rule of Hunan.

Therefore, the two sides are almost in conflict.Fortunately, Tan Haoming needed these Xiangxi troops to defend Xiangxi, and Tan Haoming did not have any extra troops in his hands, so the two sides did not fight.But there is no need to talk about the relationship.

Now the Xiangxi troops are in trouble, but even so they will not seek refuge with Tan Haoming.Not only will they not bow their heads to Tan Haoming, but they are also afraid that Tan Haoming will settle accounts later in the fall.Tan Haoming was a bandit. If they went to Baoqing, they might be shot and killed.Therefore, the troops stagnated in Xinhua and did not continue south.

"It's not very good. The vanguard of Duan Xun's troops has already started to go south, and the nearest troops are less than [-] miles away from us. And according to the information we got, Duan Xun's troops are still continuously marching into Hunan. It is said that Three brigades have appeared in Chenxi, and the troops in Zhijiang have also moved out."

"In other words, the troops we have to face are more than seven or eight brigades?"

Tian Yingzhao frowned.

Duan Xun's troops used to have [-] people in Hunan, but now several brigades have entered Hunan, and the number is increasing.And these troops are all coming to Baoqing now.Xinhua is not Changde, and there are no fortifications.Moreover, the troops began to retreat from Changde, and the troops were severely disintegrated along the way, lacking weapons and ammunition, and even lacking logistical supplies.There is simply no way to fight.

Facing Duan Xun's troops, how can they fight.

It's not that I haven't played.

The fighting power of Duan Xun's troops is not a joke, if they meet now, they really can't beat them.Now that there are so many troops following up, Tian Yingzhao is really helpless.

"It's not that many. Duan Xun's troops are currently stationed in Changsha and Changde. There are about two brigades. There are also some troops left in Zhijiang. I estimate that there will be about four brigades in Duan Xun's department opposite us." to about five brigades."

"That's not something we can handle."

Tian Yingzhao could only smile wryly when he heard the answer.Even if four or five brigades went south, that would be nearly [-] troops.With the current situation of Xinhua, it is impossible to prevent it.In particular, Duan Xun's troops are completely different from the other troops.

Regardless of whether it is Wu Peifu's side, Zhang Jingyao's side, or Zhang Huaizhi's side, the backgrounds of the troops under their hands are very complicated.Although they are friendly forces with each other, but because the sources are not unified, there is still a problem with cooperation.After all, the command system is different.Therefore it is flawed.

But Duan Xun is different here.

Except for Wan Xuancai's Fourth Division, the troops that entered Hunan this time were all troops of Li Jishen's First Army.The command is unified, and the actions of all troops must follow Li Jishen's orders, so there will be no major loopholes.

"Brother Rong Chuan (Zhang Xueji), what do you think we are going to do now?"

Xiangxi troops.

Mainly troops of three.One is the [-]-strong patrol battalion led by Zhang Xueji and Xie Chongguang, the other is the [-]-strong Gan Army and the Reclamation Army led by Tian Yingzhao, and the last part is the garrison and marine police led by Zhou Zefan. There are more than [-] people in the brigade and local militia.These troops formed the West Hunan Yasukuni Allied Forces.

However, this army seems to have a large number of people, but the regular army is small, the weapons and equipment are poor, and the combat effectiveness is average.Even when the Jingguo Army in western Hunan was formed, there were only about [-] long and short guns in total, and only half of the people had guns.

Moreover, among this army, the troops of Tian Yingzhao and Zhou Zefan were first defeated by Tian Songyao's troops in Gaodu Town, and then by Lai Xinhui's troops of Yu Xuezhong's Fifth Division in Xindian.While Zhang Xueji was in Changde, he was besieged by Liu Mingzhao's brigade, the Hunan Army's Chen Fuchu and Wang Zhengya's troops, and Tian Songyao's First Mixed Brigade, and was defeated in Changde and Taoyuan one after another.

The casualties were not large, and the number of casualties in several encounters did not exceed 2000.

But the troops were severely dismantled.After several battles, more than half of the troops were disbanded.Now that the troops have retreated to Xinhua, there are only more than 2000 people left, less than 3000.And most of them are Tian Yingzhao's troops.

"We still have to negotiate."

Zhang Xueji sighed.

In the current situation, the situation of the Yasukuni Army in western Hunan is really too dangerous.To the south is Tan Haoming's army, which is no different from the enemy.But Duan Xun's troops are in the north and west, which is even more difficult.

You can't beat it for sure.

Negotiable.

Just like when I was in Changde.At that time, Zhang Xueji's troops were driven out of Baoqing by Duan Xun's troops, and then besieged in Taoyuan.In desperation, Zhang Xueji chose to negotiate with Duan Xunbu.

Deng Hanxiang negotiated in person.

Finally, an agreement was reached, that is, Zhang Xueji's troops would give up Taoyuan, and Duan Xun's troops would not pursue them.Because Duan Xun's troops were eager to enter Changsha at that time, they didn't want to get entangled with Zhang Xueji's troops.
