Beiyang reactionaries

Speaking of which, Zhang Jingyao's [-]th Brigade was developed from a veteran unit of the Beiyang Army, and the training of the troops is still quite good.There shouldn't be such a situation where the troops collapsed, but the [-]th Brigade really collapsed, and the troops collapsed directly.

As soon as the Thirteenth Brigade ran away, Xiong Xiangsheng's troops naturally stopped fighting.The fight between Zhang Jingyao and the National Defense Army was very lively, but Xiong Xiangsheng was basically watching the fun from the sidelines, and did not join in to help Zhang Jingyao.

The Yunnan Army is also very interesting.

They did not go to attack Xiong Xiangsheng's position. They concentrated their forces to attack Zhang Jingyao's [-]th Brigade.

The end result was very dismal.Zhang Jingyao led the 4000th Brigade of more than 300 people to the south in a mighty way, and only [-] people finally ran to Naxi, and the rest were scattered.In fact, although Zhang Jingyao was defeated, the casualties of his troops were not that high. It would be good if there were five or six hundred casualties in a half-day battle.The reason why so few people returned to Naxi was entirely because after the front line was broken, the officers and soldiers of Zhang Jingyao's troops were all from the north, and they didn't know the way at all.After fleeing, they had no idea where to run.Originally, when Zhang Jingyao fled back to Naxi, there were only about [-] people around him, and there were more than [-] people who were recruited by Duan Xun's troops one after another.There are still many officers and soldiers of the [-]th Brigade returning to the team one after another.

On the contrary, Xiong Xiangsheng's brigade brought back nearly 2000 people, basically without any major losses.

Naxi.

Zhang Jingyao had a gloomy face, Duan Xun sat beside him very calmly, Xiong Xiangsheng didn't say a word, and the atmosphere was very dignified.Sitting below them were all officers from Duan Xun's Department.Li Jishen, Deng Hanxiang, Xu Yongchang, Liu Xiang, Duan Yong, Wang Tianpei.

Duan Xun didn't speak, and neither did these people.

The atmosphere was depressing.

"Report-"

"Say."

"Master, Dong Hongxun's troops of the third detachment of the second echelon regiment of the Yunnan Army are stationed in Supengxi (now Huguo Town)."

"map."

As soon as Duan Xun spoke, Xu Yongchang immediately stepped forward and put up the map around Naxi.Duan Xun looked at the map, and then asked, "Have they taken any action?"

"still has not now."

"it is good."

Looking at the map, Duan Xun suddenly turned around and said to Xiong Xiangsheng: "Brigade Commander Xiong, I think you should go to Chengdu to explain this failure to General Chengwu (Chen Heng). The Thirteenth Brigade suffered heavy losses. , but your troops have basically suffered no losses. This is unreasonable. By the way, tell General Chengwu (Chen Heng) the current crisis situation in Luzhou, and ask him to quickly raise some weapons and ammunition for us. Otherwise, we may not be able to hold on Luzhou."

"I……"

Xiong Xiangsheng was furious.

Because Duan Xun asked himself to hand over the position of brigade commander in one sentence.My position as brigade commander was personally appointed by Chen Heng.For this appointment, he even had a big conflict with Zhou Jun, the commander of the First Division of the Sichuan Army.

But now Duan Xun wants to directly deprive himself of the position of brigade commander.

After Chen Heng entered Sichuan, he reorganized the Sichuan Army and appointed two of his direct descendants as brigade commanders.One was that Xiong Xiangsheng was the brigade commander of the First Division of the Sichuan Army, and the other was that Lei Biao was the brigade commander of the Second Division of the Sichuan Army.

After the outbreak of the War to Protect the Nation, Lei Biao had resigned from his position as brigade commander because of his good relationship with the Yunnan Army.If he loses the position of brigade commander again, Chen Heng will no longer have an army he can directly control.The guard of the Governor's Mansion under his control has also gone south to Syria to fight Liu Yunfeng, the first echelon regiment of the First Army of the National Defense Army.

In other words, Chen Heng is also an empty general in Sichuan now. .

How can this be.

Therefore, Xiong Xiangsheng immediately objected.But Duan Xun sneered and said: "Brigade Commander Xiong, do you have any objections to what I said? Do you want me to send a telegram to the Ministry of Army and General Chengwu? It was because of your lack of cooperation and support that the Thirteenth Brigade suffered a disastrous defeat." At that time, instead of asking you to go back and explain the situation, you will be asked to enforce battlefield discipline."

Duan Xun glared at Xiong Xiangsheng, don't be shameless.It really pissed me off and I shot you straight away.Chen Heng is an empty general, and you, Xiong Xiangsheng, are not even as good as Chen Heng, an empty general.

No matter how Chen Heng is an empty general, everyone should give him some face because of Chen Heng's reputation.Compared to you, Xiong Xiangsheng is nothing.None of the Sichuan troops under your command are your direct troops, and you may or may not be able to control them.Even if Duan Xun shot Xiong Xiangsheng here, what else could Xiong Xiangsheng do.

When Xiong Xiangsheng was stared at by Duan Xun, his legs couldn't help shaking, because he could tell from Duan Xun's attitude that Duan Xun really dared to attack.Looking at Zhang Jingyao above again, he found that Zhang Jingyao's face was ashen.And looking at Duan Xun's eyes is very fierce, of course, looking at Xiong Xiangsheng's face is not very good-looking.

Of course Zhang Jingyao was not friendly to Xiong Xiangsheng. After all, he and the national defense army were fighting to death, and Xiong Xiangsheng was watching the fun.Now that he has suffered a disastrous defeat, if Yuan Shikai is held accountable, Zhang Jingyao will of course have to find an excuse.Xiong Xiangsheng, the commander of the Sichuan Army, is of course the best excuse.

Zhang Jingyao was angry with Xiong Xiangsheng, and Zhang Jingyao was also very dissatisfied with Duan Xun.Since the meeting, Duan Xun didn't ask his opinion at all.

Zhang Jingyao was appointed by Yuan Shikai himself as the commander-in-chief of the second route of the Rebellion Army, but after Duan Xun saw the disastrous defeat of Zhang Jingyao's 13th Brigade, he didn't take Zhang Jingyao seriously at all.Even the officers and soldiers of the No.[-] brigade who were gathered later, Duan Xun directly gathered them into his own troops.

How could Zhang Jingyao not be angry that the annexation of other troops was so slippery.It's just that now that the National Defense Army has come to Naxi, only Duan Xun can defend Naxi.So Zhang Jingyao couldn't say anything.

But for Duan Xun, Zhang Jingyao was already very angry.

Everyone is from the Beiyang Army, and even belongs to the Duan Qiruiwan faction.But Duan Xun did too much.However, he was optimistic about Duan Xun's shifting the responsibility for his failure to Xiong Xiangsheng, so he didn't speak out.

Xiong Xiangsheng was left trembling with popularity.

Although he was not from the Beiyang Army, he was still from Chen Heng.But looking at Zhang Jingyao and Duan Xun, Chen Heng, the current governor of Sichuan, was completely ignored.

"Liu Xiang."

"arrive."

"Brigade Commander Xiong is going to Chengdu to handle business. That is your old unit, you should gather it up immediately. For the next step of defending Naxi, this unit will be handed over to your [-]th Regiment to command."

"Yes."

Outrageous.

Although Xiong Xiangsheng knew what Duan Xun was thinking, his eyes were still wide open when he heard Duan Xun give the order.This kid Duan Xun is really lawless, he even annexed the friendly army directly on the battlefield.But Xiong Xiangsheng watched Duan Xun so lawless, but there was nothing he could do.

Xiong Xiangsheng is from Hubei, and he was able to become the brigade commander of the Sichuan Army because of his relationship with Chen Heng.Speaking of which, he has no foundation at all in the Sichuan Army.Moreover, the Sichuan Army is a very conservative group, and it is more repulsive for outsiders like Xiong Xiangsheng to suddenly come to take over the army.

But Liu Xiang is different.

Liu Xiang is from Sichuan. He started studying at the military academy when he was less than 17 years old, and has been in the Sichuan Army for ten years.Moreover, Liu Xiang has been in the First Division of the Sichuan Army since the first year of the Republic of China, climbing from a company commander to a regiment commander.He is very familiar with all aspects of the First Division of the Sichuan Army.

If it is said that Liu Cunhou's second division that surrounded and wiped out Naxi before, Liu Xiang had some difficulty in controlling it, after all, everyone is not in the same system.But for Xiong Xiangsheng's brigade, it is easy for Liu Xiang to control it, because Liu Xiang was in this brigade before, so it is even easier than Xiong Xiangsheng. .

"you……"

Xiong Xiangsheng stood up and pointed to Duan Xun, then looked at Zhang Jingyao again, hoping that Zhang Jingyao would say a few words.But found that although Zhang Jingyao was very angry, Zhang Jingyao just shut up without saying a word.Because at this time, Zhang Jingyao could see it.

This kid Duan Xun is definitely a person who is not afraid of anything.

If he and Xiong Xiangsheng dared to say anything today, this kid would definitely shut them up.And in the current situation, if you want to defend Naxi, you really have to rely on Duan Xun's troops.If Naxi and Luzhou were lost, he would not be able to bear the responsibility for the defeat at that time.

"Zi Jin (Tang Shi Zun)."

"arrive."

"I will write a letter now and send it to Dong Hongxun. I want to tell him that this place is my territory. If he leaves Syphon Creek and continues to march toward Naxi River, don't blame me for shooting."

"Yes."

Zhang Jingyao wanted to say something, but shut up anyway.This kid Duan Xun is too strong, it is probably useless to speak by himself.And Duan Xun dared to say that in front of himself, which showed that he didn't take himself seriously at all.

"Li Jishen."

"arrive."

"Your 67th regiment defends the west side of Naxi, not only to guard the west side of Naxi, but also to keep Jiang'an."
