Chapter 823 Liu Family Temple Front Line
The two thousand Fengzhong security team members acted quickly, and they were indeed experienced soldiers. After a burst of gunfire and footsteps, the team all entered the trenches and stood ready.
The cavalry battalion equipped by Jiang Yiwu's brigade was actually the first battalion of the cavalry regiment under Luo Erhu of the Fengzhong Security Forces. They had never been put to use, and they seemed to be rushing around.
Chen Tianhua knew what they were thinking and asked them to feed the horses at the back of the position and wait for the order to attack.
The Qing army in the distance advanced very fast. In less than half an hour, a large number of outpost troops appeared in Chen Tianhua's field of vision.
With bursts of horns and shouts, the rushing torrent reached the front position of Liujiamiao and suddenly stopped. Only a dozen cavalry soldiers were seen hugging a school-level officer, standing out about a hundred steps from the team, raising their binoculars to observe the people in front of Liujiamiao.
Set up the formation.
This commander of the Qing Biao regiment looks very familiar!
In the Liujiamiao command post, Jiang Yiwu, who was standing next to Chen Tianhua, glanced with his binoculars and recognized that this person was the battalion commander Zhang Jingliang who had rebelled against the enemy.
Since Zhang Jingliang joined his old boss Zhang Biao, he was promoted to the second level, from battalion officer to commander of this miscellaneous army. No, as the vanguard officer of Commander Zhang Biao, he led the newly formed miscellaneous army.
The bidding group is coming to attack Liujiamiao.
Jiang Yiwu had a bad temper and became extremely angry when meeting his enemies. He couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart, and almost wanted to jump out of the horse and fight with him.
"This shameless traitor is the reason why I am in this predicament now. I will kill him first." As soon as he raised his hand, he was stopped by Chen Tianhua.
"What do you want to do? You are the commander of the army now, not a common man! The opponent is not a reckless man. Unlike the Qing soldiers in the past, when they first encountered the enemy, they did not rush and kill, but they also knew how to stop and observe, which shows that this Zhang Jingliang
He is not stupid, and he has certain military qualities. We have to be careful with such people, we cannot lose this battle again!"
Facing the reprimand of Commander-in-Chief Chen Tianhua, Jiang Yi raised and lowered his arms, and finally gritted his teeth and gave up the idea.
Now the revolutionary army is on the defensive side. They can only stand still and use silence to wait for the enemy to attack and take advantage of them.
Once you attack, your troop configuration and firepower will be exposed, which is fatal for the defender. The opponent's artillery is not a vegetarian, and the Qing cavalry has always been tough, making the opponent's horses rush up and crash into the formation.
, your infantry will become lambs.
While Chen Tianhua and the others were observing the Qing army, Zhang Biao, Feng Guozhang, Wang Zhanyuan, Zhang Jingliang and other Qing generals were also sizing up the defensive positions on the opposite side.
They also received information that the commander-in-chief of the Wuhan Uprising Army, the famous Chen Tianhua, seemed to be personally supervising the battle on the front line of Liujiamiao. This was something that made people both nervous and excited at the same time.
It is said that Chen Tianhua has been invincible and invincible since his debut. Even the Eastern Army was defeated by him. Now this man is right in front of him. If he can defeat him in this battle, this awesome guy will probably be able to brag about it for the rest of his life.
However, just when everyone was gearing up, they discovered that Liujiamiao's position was solemn and quiet, and they could not see or hear any movements of troops or generals from the other side. This actually made people shudder and feel creepy.
Zhang Biao couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder the Japanese soldiers were defeated by him. He is indeed unique. His momentum alone is frightening."
A motley military brigade commander behind him laughed and said: "Admiral, as long as we can break in, penetrate their formation, cause them confusion, and prevent them from forming a neat defensive formation, then they will be like pigs and sheep.
There’s no difference.”
Zhang Biao shook his head and said: "To achieve this, we have to pay a huge price. I heard from Zhang Jingliang that their in-depth defense system seems to have specific regulations and implementation details. The coordination of infantry, artillery and cavalry is amazing. He just started
Joining the team, I haven't mastered it yet, but it does have its cleverness."
The brigade commander was a Manchu from the north and didn’t know much about Chen Tianhua’s situation. Hearing Zhang Biao’s words, he was still a little unconvinced, “Having said that, the revolutionaries in front of me have really experienced
There must only be a few thousand people passing through the battlefield!"
Zhang Biao glanced at him, but seeing that he was a Manchu, he did not attack immediately. He just smiled and said: "Chen Tianhua's elite in Huguang and Guangzhou are more than 5,000 people. It is said that they are very powerful in combat. They have fought in battles and have seen
Blood, this kind of troops is the most difficult to deal with. As for the rest of the troops, this governor knows very well, I'm afraid they are far inferior."
"Then, Lord Admiral, are we going to fight? Or should we continue to confront them like this?" asked another patrol battalion officer.
Zhang Biao smiled and said: "Fight, of course we must fight. How can we hold them back if we don't? Isn't it just for this moment that President Feng made the plan? We don't want to win completely, but we want to drag Chen Tianhua here.
The longer it takes, the more beneficial it will be to the flanking troops and Hanyang."
The Manchu brigade commander behind him shouted dissatisfiedly:
"Admiral, we are here gnawing bones, but the Beiyang Army is enjoying the food and drink. When we fight to the death, they will attack from the side. This kind of fueling tactic is clearly just picking peaches. It is really suffocating."
Zhang Biao was no longer polite this time. He raised his hand and whipped him, "Damn, President Feng's plan is very good. This way we can capture Liujiamiao and even the entire Hankou. The military is still planning to attack Hanyang at the same time."
The plan is that the war is still to come. General Feng sent us here because he trusts us motley troops, and only we can identify this Chen Tianhua."
The brigade commander of the Miscellaneous Military Association who received a whip, his name was Fu Hui. He also knew that he should not be disrespectful to the Beiyang Department at this time, so he endured the pain and said in a low voice: "Yes, Lord Admiral, it is a mistake to despise your position.
"
Zhang Biao said coldly: "You must remember that Army Minister Tie Liang has been demoted to Jiangsu, and now the leader is the Beiyang Clan, the Imperial Envoy Master Yuan, and our superiors are President Feng and General Feng.
They and we are both prosperous and destructive. What kind of person is General Feng? How could he not understand such a simple truth? If I hear such bastard words again, I will chop off your head!"
"I understand, Lord Admiral!" The guy suddenly tightened his head.
"Fu Hui, order Zhang Jingliang's regiment to attack the rebel positions. Your brigade's cavalry battalion will feint on both sides of the infantry, waiting for an opportunity to charge." After Zhang Biao taught his subordinates, he turned around and raised the whip in his hand high.
Behind him, hundreds of elites shouted and got on their horses at the same time.
"Fu Hui, tell Zhang Jingliang that he is making the first wave of probing attacks. Remember, we must also let the other party understand that we are determined to fight to the death!"
"Yes, Lord Admiral!" Fu Hui was full of evil fire after being whipped, and he wanted to burn this fire on the other party.
"Hey!" With a strange cry, Fu Hui rode out, and behind him, hundreds of cavalry roared out.
