Beiyang reactionaries

"Yes."

Chen Tiaoyuan.

He was Feng Guozhang's favorite person in the past, and was once Feng Guozhang's highly valued staff officer.Because of his excellent eloquence, he served as Feng Guozhang's representative many times, and later as Li Chun's representative, negotiating with people everywhere, and was known as a "military politician".

But don't look at him negotiating every day, as if he is a literati.

The ability to lead troops is not bad at all.

In his early years, he served as the commander of the gendarmerie battalion, and his relationship with Zhang Xun was very bad.Because of the poor military discipline of Zhang Xun's troops, Chen Tiaoyuan tried to arrest his people every time, but in the end they could not be tried, which made Chen Tiaoyuan feel ashamed.However, Chen Tiaoyuan served as an officer of the gendarmerie and made a great contribution to the military discipline of the Jiangsu army.

Later, if he was asked to suppress the bandits, he would do even better.Many banditry problems in northern Jiangsu were solved by Chen Tiaoyuan.

Chen Tiaoyuan is currently serving as the brigade commander of the Fifth Mixed Brigade of the Jiangsu Army, and because of his outstanding staff strength, he is also Liu Yuke's chief of staff.Now that the battle situation in Yixing is unfavorable, all Liu Yuke can do is to keep sending troops.What Liu Yuke thought of was Chen Tiaoyuan.

"Commander, I'm going to prepare now."

"it is good."

"Tap-tap-"

"Commander, battle report ahead."

"Say."

"The three battalions of the Army's First Brigade mutinied, and Yixing fell!"

290 Battle of Guangdong 3

The second Zhiwan war.

On May 1920, 5, Li Chun, the governor of Jiangsu, and Lu Yongxiang, the governor of Zhejiang, fought, and the famous second straight-anhui war in history officially began.Although Duan Xun, the most powerful border defense supervisor, and Cao Kun, the patrol envoy of Zhiluyu, have not yet fought, but there is no doubt that the second Zhiwan war will begin.

Cao Kun and Duan Xun were actually watching.

It's not that there will be no wars.

Instead, first look at the battle between Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and then use this to adjust the following combat plan.After all, the different battle situations between Jiangsu and Zhejiang will lead to different choices for Duan Xun and Cao Kun.

If Jiangsu successfully defeated Zhejiang and the troops marched to Zhejiang, Duan Xun would be under great pressure.Because by then the entire southeast will become a direct territory.Similarly, if Lu Yongxiang, the governor of Zhejiang, defeated Jiangsu, then Cao Kun would have a headache.

After all, the Zhejiang Warlord has nearly [-] troops.

With so many troops occupying Jiangsu, the threat to Cao Kun is too great.At that time, Cao Kun will send troops into Jiangsu to help stabilize the situation in Jiangsu.

Of course, the two sides are at a stalemate, so the next step is to look at Cao Kun and Duan Xun.

But just after the fight started, within three days Li Chun's Jiangsu troops were on a losing streak.Not only did the troops attacking Shanghai suffer heavy losses, but the troops defending Yixing actually mutinied.

At the stalemate moment of the war, three battalions of the First Brigade of the First Division of the Jiangsu Army mutinied, which directly caused the loss of Yixing.

In just three days, the Second Mixed Brigade of the Jiangsu Army and the First Brigade of the First Division of the Jiangsu Army in the direction of Yixing suffered heavy losses and almost lost their combat effectiveness.Three days, only three days, the morale of the Jiangsu side has plummeted.

The Second Division of the Jiangsu Army, the Second Mixed Brigade of the Jiangsu Army, and the First Brigade of the First Division of the Jiangsu Army basically withdrew from the war.

Let everyone be dumbfounded, or surprised.

The Zhejiang army is also too strong. Of course, in other words, Li Chun's army is too shameful.

However, when everyone was paying attention to the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War, the Guangdong-Guangxi War began to really enter a climax.Lu Rongting's troops attacked in three directions, and everything went smoothly at the beginning.The Guangdong Army, Guizhou Army, and Yunnan Army all retreated.

But retreat is different.

The Yunnan Army really didn't want to fight.Although the Yunnan Army turned against Lu Rongting in the last Guangdong-Guangxi War, it supported the Guangdong Army.However, the relationship between the Yunnan Army and the Guangdong Army cannot be said to be very good.The Dian Army has never thought about fighting for the Guangdong Army.

The Dian army defected at that time, in addition to being forced by the situation, it was also because they were preparing to seek refuge with Sun Yat-sen.But Sun Yat-sen has been in Shanghai, and did not come to Guangdong.The generals of the Dian Army could convince Sun Yat-sen, but they would not obey Chen Jiongming's orders.Therefore, during this period of time, the relationship between the Guangdong Army and the Yunnan Army has always been close.

Therefore, the Dian army retreated because they did not want to fight head-on with Lu Rongting's troops.

Chen Jiongming and Xu Chongzhi retreated because Lu Rongting's troops along the way were indeed relatively strong.The troops along this road are all Lu Rongting's most direct troops, regardless of whether it is the First Army of the Guangxi Army of Lu Rongting's eldest son Lu Yuguang, the Third Army of the Guangxi Army of Lu Fuxiang, or the First Mixed Brigade of the Guangxi Army of Han Caifeng. Department of direct troops.

In the last Guangdong-Guangxi War, the losses of these troops were not too great.Most of the troops are veterans with relatively strong combat effectiveness.

After several battles, both sides suffered considerable losses, and neither side took advantage.

However, the number of Gui army troops on this road is superior, so Chen Jiongming does not want to confront them head-on, and has been looking for opportunities.So I chose to resist step by step, resist in one place for a period of time, and retreat if I can't beat it.

There is only one difference.

That is the Third Army of the Guangdong Army commanded by Deng Keng and the Guizhou Army troops commanded by Wang Wenhua.

Their retreat was orderly.

Step back step by step.

After withdrawing for nearly a hundred miles and widening the front line, they suddenly chose to flank Shen Hongying's troops. On May 1920, 5, the second day after the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War broke out, the Guangdong-Guangxi War also underwent tremendous changes.

A regiment of Wang Wenhua's Guizhou Army and a division of Deng Keng's Third Army of the Guangdong Army, about 2000 troops suddenly flanked Shen Hongying's troops from the left and right.

Not many people.

But it produced a very surprising effect.

chaos.

At this time, it reflects the cohesion of an army and the organizational ability of an army.The troops of Shen Hongying and Lin Junting were formed in the bandit mode.There seemed to be a lot of people, and they were flustered when they encountered this situation.It can even be said that the large number of people has become their disadvantage.If the number of troops is relatively small, they are easy to control and easy to respond.

However, the number of troops was too large, and the grassroots organization was insufficient, so that Shen Hongying and Lin Junting could not control the troops at all.Immediately after being flanked, the troops began to panic.

In fact, don't say it's a war, even when their troops are marching, there are too many loopholes.They simply do not have the ability to fight in large forces.

Let Deng Keng and Wang Wenhua catch him in one fell swoop.

"really."

Within two hours, Li Jishen got the information from the other side.

Among the current major warlords in China, no one can compare to Duan Xun in terms of intelligence warfare.After all, Duan Xun has established several intelligence systems belonging to different departments.The annual funding for the intelligence system is not a small amount.

"Deng Keng's real name general."

"Yes, Commander. If Shen Hongying and the others retreat in such a haste, they will definitely suffer serious damage. Deng Keng and Wang Wenhua will definitely pursue closely. Whether they can get rid of them is a problem."

Fang Dingying shook his head repeatedly while looking at the telegram.

The troops were too flustered.

If Shen Hongying and Lin Junting were able to organize their troops a little bit, they would not be easily defeated by Deng Keng and Wang Wenhua.With the size of Shen Hongying and Lin Junting's troops, even if they suffered a side attack, as long as they defended well, it would be impossible to lose such a big loss.
