Back to the Republic of China as a commander

For a while, all parties reacted differently. Of course, the first to get the news was the central government that had just been abolished.Yang Yuting was really the most diligent existence in the Feng Clan, and rushed to Ju Ren Tang to report to Zhang Zuolin as soon as he got the telegram.But Zhang Zuolin immediately jumped up and laughed loudly after reading the telegram: "That's good, that's good, I was afraid that he, Wang Wenzheng, wouldn't go to Shandong, but now they're coming to him, and then we'll look at Little Japan. Tell Sun Liechen and Zhang Jinghui to seize the time to take down Shanxi, and then wait for the Japanese to defeat the youth army in Shandong, Zhang Jinghui hurriedly led troops into Henan to take Wang Wenzheng's old nest Wuhan, and Sun Liechen led troops to Shaanxi and entered Sichuan."

Yang Yuting had no objection to Zhang Zuolin's words, this had been planned long ago, some of which were even made by himself.He just asked with some concern: "Then in Shandong, Zhang Zongchang and his plan to attack Xuzhou should be carried out?"

Zhang Zuolin slapped the table angrily and amusedly and said: "It's all over here, what a fart, let him get out of Shandong as soon as possible, so as not to be disturbed. Shandong is left to the youth army and the Japanese dog bite dog." Bar!"

While in Tokyo, Japan, Prime Minister Hara Keiwa was surprised when he got the power-on from the South China National Government and asked Tanaka: "Tanaka-kun, what's going on? Why did such a situation happen? Could it be that the South China Government has already prepared and Is the Empire at war?"

Tian Zhongyi said with a very calm smile: "The people in China are always so angry and like to shout and kill. This has been proved during the Gengzi Rebellion more than ten years ago. That Lafayette Don't you declare war on the eight most powerful countries in the world at the same time, but the end result is to measure China's material resources and the favor of all countries. Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are not a soldier, so you don't know how great the advantage of the Imperial Japanese Army is. First of all, we have the largest navy in Asia. This is something that the Chinese can’t catch up with. Their long coastline has no defenses. As long as the combined fleet of the empire is willing, we can be in Shanghai, Guangzhou, in short. Landing operations can be carried out at any seaport in China. As for Shandong, which is on the peninsula, it is in the direct radiation range of the combined fleet. On the other hand, there is no need for you to worry, His Majesty's loyal warriors will soon prove what kind of army is a world-class army..."

The most depressed person is almost Yan Xishan, the governor of Shanxi: "What is Chu Xiongfei doing? Why did you shoot? I was just dancing on the two eggs of Fengzhang and Nanwang, but now it's all right, and the first Japanese appeared." Three eggs. Let me dance on three eggs, the days to come will be bitter..."

And in Zhanjiang Port, Guangdong, Lieutenant General Chen Shaokuan, Minister of the Navy and Commander of the Navy, is lecturing the officers and men of the Navy's First Breakthrough Fleet and the First Submarine Formation.In fact, since the May 370th Movement caused the Shandong issue, five [-]-ton British-built "Haiqi" ​​class cruisers of the Navy, "Wuhan", "Nanjing", "Changsha", "Guangzhou", "Shanghai" and ten The [-]-ton domestic destroyer and two torpedo boat formations with twelve torpedo boats have already moved to Zhanjiang from Shanghai Wusong Military Port.On the point of breaking the fleet, Wang Zhenyu and Chen Shaokuan, the new head of the navy, have reached an agreement, that is, it is unrealistic to fight the Japanese combined fleet or cut off the Japanese maritime supply line, but cutting off Japan's trade routes to Southeast Asia is a little bit No problem.The information obtained by Wang Zhenyu also showed that the Japanese obviously underestimated China's will to resist, and they never even considered the issue that the Chinese navy would attack.That's right, the combined total tonnage of the entire fleet is only [-] tons, which is not as good as the two Japanese battleships. Such a fleet is estimated to be used by anyone to defend Wusong and prevent the United Fleet from going upstream to threaten Nanjing and Wuhan.It's a pity that in this life, because of the National Security Bureau and Wang Yaqiao, Japan's intelligence work against China is very ineffective. If they know that Jiangyin, Zhenjiang, and Wusong have built three extremely strong German-style navies to race and placed eight doors in each If the [-] mm caliber German-made naval heavy guns, the Japanese are probably not so nervous. . .

But on the use of submarine formations, Wang Zhenyu and Chen Shaokuan have a bit of a difference.According to Wang Zhenyu's point of view, the value of the submarine formation is to deal with the enemy's warships, so where are the enemy's warships?In Shandong!Then why hesitate, go directly to Shandong, and then wait for the Japanese combined fleet to die.

Facing Wang Zhenyu's self-proclaimed genius idea, Chen Shaokuan laughed very disdainfully: "Dear Chairman, you really think highly of these submarines, even if the Japanese fleet's anti-submarine capability is the last in the world, if they choose Escape, do you think the submarine can catch up with the speed of 11 knots?"

Wang Zhenyu didn't get angry, but he was very dissatisfied with Chen Shaokuan's arrogance in his heart, but he still asked very modestly on his face: "Then according to what you mean, how should our submarine force be used?"

Chen Shaokuan looked at the map without fear, and slid his hand from Shandong to directly point to the mouth of the Yangtze River: "It's right here, I have planned it all, relying on the fort, it is probably much easier to play one vote when the Japanese fleet bombards By then, it will not be so easy for the Japanese to escape.”

Wang Zhenyu frowned and said, "Then if Little Japan doesn't invade the Yangtze River, our submarine fleet will be useless? I've invested so much money and it's just a decoration?"

Chen Shaokuan sarcastically said even more disdainfully: "My chairman, I think you are more suitable to be a businessman rather than a soldier. The technical data of the submarine determines that it can only exist as a deterrent weapon that uses the weak to attack the strong. And From our point of view, the Yangtze River Basin is the lifeblood of our economy. It would be better if there is no war. The biggest role of the submarine formation is to throw it as the last trump card in case of war. Minimize losses."

Although Wang Zhenyu was unhappy, he could only nod his head and said, "That's the best thing to do. I'll let Gu Weijun and the others communicate with Britain, the United States and France, and try to prevent the southeast coast from becoming a warring area. The leaders of these ghosts here also invest a lot, especially Several American consortiums, I don't believe that these Yankees will not be in a hurry when we fight with the Japanese."

Sure enough, Michelle, the head of the Rockefeller Foundation's Shanghai Office, and the US Consul in Nanjing rushed to Cao's house overnight after Wang Zhenyu issued a declaration of war against Japan, and visited Wang Zhenyu who was planning to return to Wuhan the next day.

"Two respected American friends, thank you for your concern for China's peace. In fact, I also hate war. But there is no way. As you can see, it is not I who sent my army to Kyushu, Japan, but the Japanese They sent their troops to our Chinese Shandong for the reason of protecting the overseas Chinese. In my opinion, only democratically elected governments like the United Kingdom and the United States really care about the life and death of the overseas Chinese, while Japan, which emphasizes the selfless devotion of its citizens to His Majesty the Emperor When will the country really care about the life and death of their expatriates? So they are just doing the most barbaric things in the name of civilization."

Having said that, the American consul can't say much. He can only say that he will directly report everything that is happening in China to the United States.Compared with the official, Michelle, the business representative, has less trouble and scruples.You must know that Rockefeller, Morgan and other large American conglomerates have invested almost [-] million US dollars in China. In addition, they have also purchased government bonds of up to [-] million US dollars from the National Government.That is to say, if once the combined Japanese fleet appears at the mouth of the Yangtze River or the Nationalist government of China fails and collapses in the war, then the large consortia of the United States will have almost one billion dollars in bubbles, and such losses will be lost even if they are as huge as theirs. Fu also cannot turn a blind eye.

"Dear Wang, we are still working on many cooperation projects with China Development Corporation, and about two-thirds of the projects are concentrated in Shanghai, Suzhou, and Hangzhou. We are very worried whether the Japanese combined fleet will land at the mouth of the Yangtze River. Combat, I am afraid that will destroy our cooperation."

"Mr. Michelle, war is the ugliest thing in human beings, but the Japanese like this thing and strengthen it to us time and time again. As a partner, I don't want to drag peace-loving Americans into such a peace war." In the battle of the barbarians, but my strength is limited after all, the only thing I can do is once the real Japanese army appears in the above-mentioned area, I will command my army to fight to the end, and use my life to protect the safety of the personnel and property of the friendly countries."

Michelle was dumbfounded when he heard it. It’s the same as if he didn’t say it, but he didn’t know what to say. It’s impossible for people to give up the above-mentioned areas without resistance. This doesn’t make sense.Michelle nodded and said some nonsense before leaving. She must tell the big conglomerates in the United States about this terrible situation. . .

Chapter 444 The Storm ([-])

Leaving aside the extent to which countries such as Britain, the United States, and France, which have invested heavily in China, will respond, at least Japan's response is a bit exaggerated.

Faced with the declaration of war by the Chinese government in Southern China, Japan's reaction was not anger. In their view, it was just a reaction from the blood of a local warlord in China.At the same time, they were full of confidence in the fighting power of the Imperial Japanese Army. In their opinion, as long as His Majesty's samurai stabbed the hot-headed China warlord lightly with a bamboo spear, he would be dead.Therefore, they neither carried out a general mobilization to enhance Japan's immediate combat power, nor agreed with Nagata Tieshan and Ishihara Wanji's proposal to withdraw the main force of the imperial army from the Siberian expedition, because both Prime Minister Keihara and Prime Minister Tanaka Riku They are not prepared to expand the war against China.

First, judging from the current situation, the British Empire seems to be still strong. After the end of the European War, it first successfully suppressed the German Revolution and the Hungarian Revolution, and then actively interfered in the Turkish and Russian issues. The returnee from Europe said that it was about to decay and collapse.I don't know that the British treasury is already empty, and the Japanese high-level officials such as Hara Jing and others dare not wantonly expand the scale of the war against China. After all, China is also the sphere of influence of the British. It is a sheep in the British pasture, and the value of Japan It's just a dog watching the sheep. If the dog dares to bite the sheep to death, the British farmer will kill the disobedient dog if he can't keep it.The Japanese don't have the courage to start a war with a world empire like Britain.Secondly, there are many contradictions in Japan at present. Due to the sharp drop in orders after the end of the European War, Japanese factories and mines are generally underutilized.This is also the reason why Yuan Jing agreed to send troops to Siberia and China. It is nothing more than realizing internal potential by expanding domestic demand and relieving economic pressure.But it has to be said that because Japan has been providing military products to Europe in the past few years, Japan's own war power reserve is very unsatisfactory. They simply do not have enough power to launch a full-scale war of aggression against China.What is particularly dangerous is that the annual steel output in southern China is expected to be the same as that of Japan by the end of this year. Although the quantity of special steel is not as good, the quantity alone is enough to make Japan worry.Nevertheless, with the support of Nagata Tieshan, the Japanese military has formulated a plan and a plan b.

The so-called plan a is that the Japanese army fought smoothly in Shandong and successfully defeated the Southern China army, and then the war was handed over to Zhang Zuolin's Feng army to continue.

But Plan B is much more terrifying. According to Ishihara Waner's suggestion, once the Japanese army fails to fight smoothly or even loses unexpectedly in the Shandong area, the empire should consider expanding the scope of the war to punish China. At this time, it should send more imperial troops and the United The main force of the fleet landed together in the rich southeastern region of China, inflicting heavy damage on the entire China. . .

Out of an attitude of being responsible to His Majesty the Emperor, Tanaka had to allow plan b to exist as a backup plan, and the two divisions placed in Kyushu will also exist as the execution force of plan b.But despite this, Tanaka still firmly believes that with the strength of the Imperial Japanese Army, Plan A will surely succeed, onboard, onboard!

The final problem still lies in the implementation. Although the Japanese side had premeditated, due to various reasons, not all the three divisions were transported to Qingdao, Shandong.To be precise, the soldiers of the three divisions have arrived, but many heavy equipment are still in the process of being shipped from the mainland.An infantry division without heavy weapons can only be regarded as a rifle division. The commanders on the front line do not have the arrogance of Araki Sadao, who dared to let the samurai take bamboo spears to kill the enemy.Therefore, Tanaka's offensive plan became impossible to implement from the beginning of the war, and the Japanese army only took over the communication line from Qingdao to Weifang in the next half month.

Since the Japanese are so polite, there is no need for the youth army to be polite. Bai Chongxi issued the battle order for the Jinan campaign almost the next day after the declaration of war.The ten divisions deployed on the front line of Xuzhou unceremoniously started combat operations. . .

Bai Chongxi's combat orders were so detailed that Liu Xing, the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Route Army, had almost nothing to do.And his purpose of deploying operations is very clear:

Zhang Zizhong, the first division of the Youth Army, was asked to march 300 kilometers to Zibo and organize defenses on the spot. It is worth mentioning that since they are assault troops, they have nothing to do with taking the Beijing-Puzhou line and taking the train. At most, they are heavy equipment You can walk along this railway, because the Shandong section of this railway is still under the control of Zhang Zongchang.Therefore, the task of Zhang Zizhong's troops is very arduous. This is still based on the fact that most of the marching routes are plains. If it is Shandong, no matter how hard the training is, the first division will be difficult to complete the task of rushing to Zibo fortification in seven days to ensure the time for the decisive battle in Jinan.The fifth division, Yu Zuobai, the sixth division, Dai Yue, the No.15 division, Gu Pinzhen, and the No.20, first division, Tao Jun, set off from Xuzhou and went straight to Jinan along the Beijing-Puzhou line. Bai Chongxi asked them to divide into one Second, the 21th and 20th Divisions, which are good at mobile combat, outflanked and advanced, while the 20th and 20st Divisions alternately attacked along the railway line. No.20 Fifth Division Xue Yue Division, No.30 Seventh Division Zhu Peide Division was ordered to march [-] kilometers to occupy the Rizhao area and threaten the Qingdao flank. No. [-] Eighth Division Zhu Jiande stayed in Xuzhou, No. [-] Ninth Division Liu Mingzhao followed and marched to Jinan, but instead of simply following, they marched along the west side of Weishan Lake, took Jining and then took the railway.The No. [-] Normal Shisheng Department was required to follow the First Division and keep a one-day marching distance, so that it could form a strong reinforcement for the First Division at any time. . .

The division commanders below are not so fuel-efficient. Gu Pinzhen, Fan Shisheng, and Zhu Peide, the division commanders from the Yunnan Army, were eating with the division commanders Liu Bocheng and Zhu Jiande from the Sichuan Army when they received the order. better than normal.Gu Pinzhen looked at the battle plan and exclaimed: "Our boss Bai is really not an ordinary person. He deserves to be the one who defeated the Germans in Europe. This battle order never released Zhang Zongchang's Zhilu coalition forces from the beginning to the end." In my eyes, every layout is aimed at the Japanese, and this time the little Japan has a lot of fun.”

Liu Mingzhao disagreed: "I'm afraid things are not that simple. Looking at the layout, I'm afraid it's not to defeat the Japanese, but to eat them all in one bite. I went to Europe late, and I didn't fight back in Verdun." Catch up, but as far as I know, it was a mobile battle at that time. I don’t know if Commander Bai is planning to play mobile warfare again this time. If so, the little Japanese and the Germans are different. They are also well-known players in mobile warfare. Really Putting it all together, the losses of our troops participating in the war are not small."

Zhu Peide nodded: "I've heard people from other brother troops say that this chief of staff, Bai, is the one who is most willing to pay for the war. He never considers the casualties of the troops under him. He wants to win. This time we never I am transferred from my hometown to listen to his command. I am afraid that the loss of soldiers and generals will be small, and it is not impossible for the entire army to be wiped out."

Zhu Jiande shook his head and said: "Compassion is not in charge of the army, and we are probably not much better than this dear man. It doesn't matter if we lose anything. Our Marshal Wang treats everyone equally, and all he gives us are standing numbers. How much we lose is sure." How much is added. What we have to do now is to fight hard in this battle and play our own prestige..."

Fan Shisheng laughed and said: "I know you have ideas, hehe, each of you has more than 2 elite soldiers, first-class equipment, and sufficient supplies, which are much better than when we were begging for Yuan in the past... all tempted, Thinking about becoming famous. Actually, I also think so myself, just as Marshal Wang said, this is the era of our soldiers, the era of our becoming famous..."

While the proud and conceited Japanese army was still waiting for equipment in Qingdao, the first division of Zhang Zizhong's youth army had already started a very arduous march. In Shandong in October, the weather had begun to turn cold, so Bai Chongxi's idea was to End the Shandong war in the shortest possible time.But it was quickly vetoed by Wang Zhenyu. Wang Zhenyu clearly told Bai Chongxi that he must be prepared to continue the war for half a year to two years or even longer, because the Japanese are people with dreams.

On the Sulu border, the Zhilu coalition forces have arranged many patrol battalions here in order to guard against the youth army's surprise attack.However, in the middle of the night on October 10th, these patrol battalions did not play any role at all. Zhang Zizhong's first division broke through the Sulu border very easily. Easily took down the defenseless Lanling County, broke into Shandong for more than 11 miles, and captured more than 12 Zhilu coalition forces.At this time, Zhang Zongchang, who had just received Zhang Zuolin's secret retreat order, was still hugging his Xinna's concubine and had just woken up. The first thing he did when he woke up was not thinking about how to carry out Zhang Zuolin's retreat order, but yawned and told the adjutant to say: : "Concubine, concubine, concubine tax will be levied in the whole province in the future, why should I have to pay the money for concubine?"

The adjutant seemed to be accustomed to this, and immediately turned around to initial the tax increase order. Zhang Zongchang, who could easily lose a hundred thousand oceans in a card game, was stingy with his troops. None of the high-level command departments are equipped with radio stations.Zhang Zongchang felt that it was useless to spend money on that thing. If there is really something wrong, wouldn't it be over if the orderly ran errands?So the news that the youth army entered Shandong was finally told by the Japanese to Zhang Zongchang, and it was already the next day. . .

It was only at this time that Zhang Zongchang remembered that he had not organized the northward retreat of the Zhi-Shandong Allied Forces. . .

Chapter 445 The Storm ([-])

Many years later, we can see from the letter Shi Congbin, then chief of staff of the Zhishan coalition army and commander of the second army, wrote to his daughter how fast the youth army's offensive in the Shandong area was.

"Daughter Gu Lan, see the words like face, for the father at the moment in the Tai'an front line command operations, the southern army is coming fiercely, Kun Commander was caught off guard. In just three days, the main force of the southern army divided into three groups and went straight to the Lu territory. The army's actions It was swift and powerful, and the nearly [-] officers and soldiers of the [-] patrol battalions deployed by our army on the border were all wiped out without warning. Yesterday, the troops commanding the second brigade of the Second Army tried to The advance speed of the army was slowed down. Unexpectedly, the battle lasted less than two hours, and more than [-] officers and soldiers of the Second Brigade were beaten back by the enemy's superior firepower. Then the enemy launched tactical interludes, and our army's rear was cut off, and we lost ground. , can only be defeated and surrendered. The father was surprised and ordered the rest of the troops to retreat from Zoucheng. To be safe, the father retreated to Tai'an to avoid the front. In addition, I wrote to you because you know letters even though you are young Please tell your mother that Kun Shuai has decided to abandon Shandong and retreat to Zhili. Jinan is no longer a place to live, and it seems that it is not safe to retreat to Beijing. My father has sent Adjutant Xu to bring a battalion back to Jinan to escort you and others. Temporarily taking refuge in the Tianjin Concession, hope to pack up the things immediately, leave as soon as you see the letter, don't stay..."

In fact, Shi Jianqiao, who was only 13 years old at the time, escaped from Jinan. On October 15, in just seven days, Gu Pinzhen, the main force of the No. [-] Division of the Youth Army marching along the railway line, rushed into Jinan at a rapid pace. Jinan City.

Gu Pinzhen's actions shocked both sides of the war. You must know how chaotic the situation was at that time. In order to cover the retreat of the main force, Zhang Zongchang dispatched two troops to delay the youth army in the Tai'an area.In addition to Gu Pinzhen, the four divisions responsible for breaking through and taking Jinan from the front, Yu Zuobai of the Fifth Division, Dai Yue of the Sixth Division, and Tao Jun of the No. 20 First Division were still fighting with the Zhilu coalition forces in the Tai'an area. . .

At this time, Gu Pinzhen obviously grasped the core point of the entire battlefield, and led the officers and soldiers of the No.15 Division directly to Jinan.

It's a trivial matter that Bai Chongxi was shocked, after all, it happened more than once that the people below did not follow his orders.The one who was really surprised was Zhang Zongchang. It is said that Zhang Zongchang was still in Jinan city when Gu Pinzhen's vanguard force stormed the city gate.However, due to the unknown situation of the enemy, Zhang Zongchang chose to leave his remnants to cover himself (all front-line officers will be promoted to three ranks, if they don't die), and he himself escaped from Jinan under the escort of the White Russian cavalry.The puppet Jinan provincial government and other institutions were not so lucky. All senior officials of the former provincial government, including the eleven senior generals under Zhang Zongchang, were all captured because they did not retreat in time!This was a huge blow to the morale of the entire Zhishan coalition.

It should be said that Zhang Zongchang is not a careless person. In July, he ordered the officers and soldiers of his troops to "tighten the last string" and "take strict precautions."But the string is broken if it is too tight for too long, so after a long time, many of the bad habits of the Zhilu coalition forces themselves returned, eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and negligence of duties became active.Fortunately, Zhang Zongchang's military deployment in the entire Shandong is top-heavy, and most of them rely on Zhili, so at least half of the 50 Zhili-Shandong coalition forces ran away. .

Another thing happened at this time. The Zhilu coalition army near Qingdao has about three armies. The commanders are Fang Yongchang, Wang Dong, and Xu Kun. No matter how fast these three troops deployed in the eastern Shandong area, they would not be able to retreat back to Zhili.It is obviously impossible for them to muster up the courage to fight a bloody road with the youth army, and it is impossible to stand still, because they are blocking the way for the Japanese to advance westward.And the Japanese have made it clear that they must either be disarmed or fight with the imperial army, there is no other way. . .

In desperation, Fang Yongchang chose to resign and fled to Tianjin to work as an apartment.Wang Dong and Xu Kun commanded 4 people from the three armies to participate in the Japanese military operations. In this war known as the "Shandong Incident", the first traitor army was born.

In order to express punishment, Sun Wen, chairman of the Nationalist Government, issued an order that all officers and soldiers of the Ministry should be regarded as traitors and would not accept surrender. . .

As for Japan's Shandong Dispatched Army, Commander Yuheng Kasunari had an audience with His Majesty the Emperor before the expedition, and he was promoted to general of the army as usual.Major General Nakajima Masaobu, Lieutenant General Matsuura Kanwei, and Lieutenant General Honjo Shigeru, who were incorporated into the Shandong Dispatch Army, followed the troops to Shandong very early.And the Honzhuang Fanshi Regiment Commander, whose equipment arrived first, attacked first, and first successfully landed three Chinese armies, opening the door for the imperial army to advance to Jinan. . .

But now these are obviously in vain, because the first thing Commander Yuheng Kassei did after he arrived in Qingdao was not to win the war immediately, but to inspect the [-] Japanese troops under his command in Qingdao. Who said Japan has no bureaucracy?

The neatly lined Japanese army showed their majestic appearance to the citizens of Qingdao and reporters from various countries. If the neatly lined up army is considered strong, the Japanese army is indeed invincible. . .

On the one hand, the Japanese Shandong dispatched army is still intoxicated there, on the other hand, the Northern Expeditionary Army has already begun to prepare for the Jinan Campaign.

After Zhang Zongchang's remnants were driven across the Yellow River, the youth army stopped pursuing. In addition to leaving three brigades to basically guard the north bank of the Yellow River, more troops were required to concentrate towards Jinan.

Bai Chongxi also arrived in Jinan on October 10, but he did not come by plane, but by train.The Jinan Military Airport is currently under construction by three engineering units dispatched by the Ministry of Engineering and Military Affairs and the Ministry of Air Force. It will change to here, and the air supremacy in the Shandong area will fall into the hands of the Northern Expeditionary Army.This is precisely what Bai Chongxi valued the most. Although air supremacy is a new term and the power of aircraft is generally underestimated in this era, Bai Chongxi included air supremacy as a key factor in the decisive victory of the Northern Expedition and the Japanese Army in the battle plan.This is something that Wang Zhenyu appreciates very much, because Jiang Fangzhen, who is known as a master strategist, has not realized this. . .

The battle situation in Shanxi is also taking a turn for the worse. Although Feng Jun is like a good boy in front of the youth army, no matter how docile the Siberian tiger is, it is still a tiger.Since it is a tiger, it naturally wants to eat people. Feng Jun finally swept away the bad luck of Xuzhou's defeat in Shanxi and showed his prestige. . .

Although Chu Xiongfei's troops fought very well and defeated a regiment of the Feng army with a battalion, Chu Xiongfei was only a battalion commander of the Jin army after all.Commanding the two armies, Shang Zhen and Xu Yongchang, one is a well-known and often defeated general in the Republic of China, and the other is a model soldier of this era.Using such two people to command the Jin army, which itself lacks combat effectiveness, against the wolf-like Feng army, we can only lament that Comrade Yan Xishan is indeed a political giant and a military dwarf.

Although the officers and soldiers of the Jin army knew that they were defending their hometown, they all had tenacious fighting spirits, but their fighting skills were too trendy.
