Republic of China: Our great warlord has many children and many blessings

In Zhang Jingyao's view, this time the Beiyang Army was not only many times more numerous than Cai E, but the quality of the soldiers was also very good. They were all elite.

Most of Cai E's people are new recruits, which are basically a mob.

Then Zhang Jingyao said again:"If you are not afraid that I will take the lead, let my seventh division be the scapegoat.

I haven't taken it seriously yet."

His words were arrogant, and his expression was also one of disdain. The arrogance that puts everyone in the eyes is obviously bound to win.

Chen Chen smiled and said:"Since Mr. Zhang is eager to make contributions and has the idea of ​​​​taking the lead, then it is best. I have no objection and express my support with both hands."

Cao Kun said:"Mr. Zhang, you are a guest from afar. This is Sichuan. If I want to take the lead, I should be Governor Chen. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf

?" Zhang Jingyao said disdainfully:"Cao Kun, I am not you.

I am going to take the lead. Don't bully others. If you want to take the lead, , I will give you this opportunity."

After saying this, Zhang Jingyao's eyes were full of contempt.

He firmly believed that Cao Kun's"160" would not dare. After all, Cao Kun only brought one brigade this time and nothing else.

Cai E has more than 10,000 people, and anyone with any brain would not choose to fight.

Feng Yuxiang looked at Cao Kun and Zhang Jingyao indifferently, sneering in his heart.

He has already communicated with Cai E and will send out the information here.

Feng Yuxiang and others also wanted Yuan Shikai to fall, and wished that Cai E would make more noise, the better.

He could see that only Cao Kun and Zhang Jingyao really wanted to fight, and the others were just working hard.

No matter whether it was his old boss, the Governor of Sichuan Chen Heng, the Wang Ruxian Brigade of the Eighth Division, or the elite Anhui regiment led by Duan Qirui's favorite disciple Ding Boxiao, almost no one wanted to fight Cai E.

Duan Qirui and Yuan Shikai have already broken up, how can Duan Qirui contribute to the work?

Feng Yuxiang looked at the arrogant Zhang Jingyao with disdain in his heart. From his perspective, Zhang Jingyao was arrogant and his tactics were not good at all. He was no match for Cai E.

The most powerful one here is Chen Huan.

As his old boss, Feng Yuxiang knew Chen Huan very well.

How could an ordinary person become the godfather of the Southwest Army?

Help Li Yuanhong encircle Hubei and help Yuan Shikai secure the presidential throne.

They also linked up with each other, causing several provinces in the southwest to be at odds with each other. In terms of strategy, Zhang Taiyan, a master of traditional Chinese culture, called him:"The number one figure in Beiyang."

Yuan Shikai regarded Chen Huan as his honored guest and followed every plan.

He was appointed by Xiliang, the governor of Sichuan, to serve as a promoter of the Sichuan Martial Arts Hall. Many Sichuan warlords were his students.

Not long after, Xiliang was transferred to Yunnan.

Chen Huan followed him to Yunnan and served as the director of the martial arts hall to organize and train the Yunnan new army.

It can be said that most of the generals in Yunnan and Sichuan are students of Chen Chen.

It is no exaggeration to be called the godfather of the Southwest Army.

As for why Chen Huan was not active in the war, Feng Yuxiang guessed that he probably did not want Yuan Shikai to become emperor.

Maybe he also wants Cai E to succeed.

If Feng Yuxiang knew that Chen Huan was Shen Hao's man, I don't know what he would think.

Facing Zhang Jingyao's ridicule, Cao Kun had not yet spoken, but his brigade commander Wu Peifu said expressionlessly:"It's okay for our brigade to be the vanguard."

Zhang Jingyao said:"As a brigade commander, do you have the right to speak here?"

This statement When it came out, he offended not only Wu Peifu but also Feng Yuxiang, Wang Ruxian of the Eighth Division, Duan Qirui's favorite disciple Ding Boxiao, and Xiong Xiangsheng, the new brigade commander under Chen Huan, etc.

These people are all brigade commanders.

Seemingly understanding that he had aroused public anger, Zhang Jingyao changed the subject and said:"This is Sichuan, let General Chen tell you who will be the vanguard." Chen Hao thought of Shen Hao's previous explanation and tried to weaken Cao Kun's power, so he slightly Yi smiled and said:"I think it is better to let Commander Cao's brigade commander Wu Peifu take the lead. Let's test Cai E's truth first before talking about it."

Hearing this, Feng Yuxiang, Wu Peifu, Cao Kun and others were surprised. They did not expect that Chen Yu would speak for Cao Kun.

Cao Kun said with satisfaction:"Well, Wu Peifu is the elite of our third division. Although it is only a brigade, it is no longer a problem to deal with Cai E."

Wu Peifu stood up and said:"Commander Cao, I will definitely capture the traitor Cai E."E"

Cao Kun nodded with a smile, glanced at Zhang Jingyao and said:"Well, I still believe you on this point."

Zhang Jingyao said unconvinced:"Why should I give up this battle to you?"

Chen He waved his hand and said:"Okay, Mr. Zhang, don’t worry too much. Let Brigadier Wu give it a try first.

Does anyone else have any opinions?"

Wang Ruxian, Feng Yuxiang, Ding Boxiao and others all shook their heads. They had never wanted to attack Cai E. They came here this time. It's just a workman's job.

Since someone is willing to come forward, just let them do it.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Chen Heng said:"Then it's settled. Let Brigadier Wu Peifu take the lead in the battle of Xuzhou and strive for a good start."

Cao Kun looked confident and did not take Cai E seriously at all.

After the meeting was dissolved.

Feng Yuxiang left in a hurry. He wanted to inform Cai E to get ready this morning.

Chen Huan looked at Feng Yuxiang's anxious back and smiled. The intelligence department had already made some noise about the intrigue between Feng Yuxiang and Cai E.

Chen Chen ignored the two people's private actions.

This time, the most important thing is to kill Cao Kun first.

Of course someone is willing to help consume Cao Kun.

As for Cai E, Chen Heng is not in a hurry and will wait until Kong Jie comes.

So, Chen Chen compiled the contents of today's meeting into a piece of information and gave it to Shen Hao.

The next day, Cai E's National Defense Army and Cao Kun's Sixth Brigade, Wu Peifu's Brigade, fought 0. The two sides fought, and Wu Peifu was indeed very capable. With one brigade, he beat Cai E without a trace. close.

They fought hard for three days, and Wu Peifu's brigade lost an average number of troops. (If you want to read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

However, despite fighting a hard battle, there is no credit for No. 4.

Zhang Jingyao took the opportunity to replace Wu Peifu and do it himself.

Compared to Wu Peifu, Zhang Jingyao is much more arrogant and arrogant.

Relying on his own elite division, he did not take Cai E seriously at all.

Tactics are not on the same level at all.

As a result, Cai E gave him a good tactical lesson. More than 9,000 people were beaten directly, and they fled to death. In the end, only 5,000 people were left.

Seeing that Cao Kun and Zhang Jingyao did not take advantage, other Beiyang troops also worked hard.

Neither of them were willing, and Feng Yuxiang didn't even speak.

Chen Huan sneered and sent other Sichuan troops who had previously dissatisfied with him to the front line. At the same time, he also asked Wu Peifu and Zhang Jingyao to organize a total of 20,000 people to attack Cai E.

With 20,000 troops, Cao Kun and Zhang Jingyao could hardly breathe a sigh of relief.

At this moment, they did not dare to underestimate Cai E's strength.

And just when the battle in Xuzhou, Sichuan was inextricable.

In Luxi County, Yunnan, Ding Wei's troops finally arrived at Li Liejun's troops.

As long as Luxi County is captured, Kunming can be taken directly.

Ding Wei looked at the map and said:"Now our location is in Jinma Town, which is connected to Baishui Town to the east and Zhongshu Town and Wujiepu Town to the south.

Li Liejun's tribe will definitely pass by here.

We will fight him here. An ambush caught him off guard."

One of the regiment commanders said:"Commander Ding, why not attack directly and with our strength, we will absolutely crush Li Liejun.

Why bother with an ambush?"

Ding Wei's division commanders, brigade commanders and chief of staff all 1.8 nod.

This is absolute trust in weapons and equipment and the quality of soldiers.

Ding Wei took one look at the regiment leader and was deeply impressed. He was the talent who stood out from the Qingyuan Military Academy last time, named Li Zongren.

Ding Wei specially promoted him and he was very optimistic about this guy.

Therefore, Ding Wei was not angry, but smiled and said:"This Jinma Town in Luxi County is located in a hilly area. The terrain is high in the north and low in the south. It is relatively flat; and I am on the high ground in the north. Once Li Liejun's troops arrive here, it will be He is a living target. When the time comes, an encirclement will be formed and he can be killed directly.

According to the intelligence, of the 20,000 people, there are only a few thousand elite rebel troops, and the rest are new recruits.

This kind of battle is the best, Once the battle loss ratio exceeds 10%, these new recruits will flee.

Once too many people run away, it will be like a flood bursting its embankments, and the army will be defeated like a mountain.

In a war, you can win with the least casualties. The enemy, that is what we are capable of.

We want to take over the entire Yunnan this time and try to reduce casualties as much as possible."
