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

Zhou Weiguo and others, who had just captured Anhui and had not yet rested, received another order from Shen Hao to attack Yan Xishan.

Li Yunlong was so excited.

Immediately screamed with excitement

"I can handle this Yan Laoxi by myself."

Zhou Weiguo smiled and said,"This Yan Laoxi is much stronger than Ni Sichong, so don't take it lightly."

Li Yunlong said,"Don't worry, I know what I know."

Wu Peifu on the side had a look on his face. He is envious, but now he has been dismissed. This time in Shanxi, he may not have anything to do.

I just don’t know when Shen Hao will use him again.

Although it is speculated that Shen Hao will reuse him, I really don’t know when..

And he was afraid that Shen Hao would forget him, so he was still very confused.

Li Yunlong said:"Old Zhou, just let me go to deal with Yan Laoxi."

Zhou Weiguo said:"Okay, how many troops and horses do you want?"

Li Yunlong said:"It's not much, two to thirty thousand is enough, but more cannons will be fine. This thing is easy to use."

Hearing this, everyone smiled, everyone knew this.

Zhou Weiguo swept away everyoneHe glanced at it and said again:"That's good. You can take half of the troops here. If it's not enough, tens of thousands of people can be transferred from Shanxi and Henan to support you. What do you think?"

These words made Li Yunlong immediately dissatisfied.

"Who are you looking down on? It takes so many people to defeat Yan Laoxi?"

There are more than 100,000 people here. If you take away half of it, it will be 50,000. With Yan Laoxi's strength, there is no match for him.

Zhou Weiguo said:"It's not that I doubt your strength, Brother Li, it's just that President Shen ordered a I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it in a week's time.

In such a short period of time, it seems that President Shen has made his next move, probably in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. Li

Yunlong snorted and said:"Don't worry, I promise there will be no problem and it will not delay the president's march into Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.""

"Brother Li, don't be anxious. Our mission is tight this time. We will send troops directly from Shandong, Henan, and Shaanxi together. In this way, Yan Xishan will not be able to defend him at all.

Once the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region is captured, the rest of the battle will never be over, so why rush?"

Everyone nodded. Now Zhang Xun's braided army was making a lot of noise in the capital, and they had heard about it.

Many people who had their braids cut off their braided hair started to fight again. I got a fake one and brought it with me.

For a while, the business of selling braids became popular.

Nowadays, the power of Zhili clique and Anhui clique is not as strong as it used to be. The three places of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei don’t have much strength to win. It's still very simple.

Of course, everyone knows that once Shen Hao wins the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, it means that Shen Hao will become the president.

By then, places like Gansu, Qinghai, Xi'an, Xinjiang, etc. There will also be a large-scale integration.

Some will involve wars.

It is even possible that we will have to face the European and American powers, Tsarist Russia, and small Japan.

After all, it is Tsarist Russia that is doing the trouble for the independence of Outer Mongolia.

Due to time factors, Li Yunlong also He didn't insist anymore.

He nodded and said:"Okay, then we will send troops from Henan, Shaanxi, and Shandong to attack Yan Xishan. That's it."

Zhou Weiguo said:"Well, this time we will gather a heavy army, at least 150,000."

Li Yunlong and others People look confused

"A mere Yan Xishan needs an army of 150,000? Zhou

Weiguo pointed to the map and said:"Shanxi and Hebei are right next to each other. President Shen's next step will definitely be Hebei, Tianjin and Beijing."

Stationed in Shanxi in advance, this saves a lot of time."

As for the heavy artillery regiment, it would be faster to mobilize it directly from Shaanxi and Shandong.

Yan Xishan didn't know yet about everyone's actions.

When he knew it, 150,000 troops had already gathered in the three provinces of Shandong, Shaanxi, and Henan.

Yan Xishan never expected it. , Shen Hao attacked him as soon as he took Anhui.

And the speed shocked him.

Taiyuan Governor's Mansion.

Yan Xishan looked at the telegram and stood up in shock.

"Damn it, Shen Hao was so uneasy about the routine that he attacked directly.

The chief of staff on the side said in shock:"Now, the Shaanxi army has captured Yuncheng."

Shandong also captured Changzi County. It can be said that the counties outside Changzhi were almost completely wiped out.

On the 12th, the Guangdong army in Henan captured Tunliu and Lucheng, cutting off Changzhi's connection with Taiyuan and Pingyao.

They successively conquered Changzi and Huguan.

The Guangdong army captured 5 cities in a row, more than 7,000 of our men were all killed, and all the strongholds outside Changzhi were also pulled out.

All five outlying cities were lost.

Now, in one day, these three people will arrive in Taiyuan.

Commander, what should we do now?"

Yan Xishan snorted coldly:"What should we do? Of course, we must guard against it.

If he fails, the worst thing he can do is give Shanxi to Shen Hao.

It's better than not firing a shot and being a coward.

How many of us are there now?"

"There are still 38,000 people left. Let them hold on. Concentrate all three artillery regiments to Taiyuan and fight them here."

""Yes" (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Although he said it lightly, Yan Xishan was unsure.

He only had so much wealth, and he could not last long against the Guangdong army.

In July, Yan Xishan looked at The blazing sun shining in the sky is like a furnace.

But his heart is as cold as being transported into an ice cave.

If he can't hold on from too far, then his hard work in Shanxi for so many years will be in vain.

July 15.

Zhou Weiguo, Li Yunlong and others gathered an army of 150,000 and surrounded Taiyuan.

At this time, there were only two days left before Shen Hao assigned the task of capturing Yan Xishan in seven days.

In the military tent camp,

Zhou Weiguo looked at the map. He said:"Today, there are still more than 30,000 people in Taiyuan City.

We only have two days left.

Therefore it cannot be delayed any longer.

You must concentrate on opening an opening first.

Everyone should express their opinion, where is the best place to attack?"

Li Yunlong said:"We have 150,000, and Yan Xishan is less than 4, the gap is nearly 4 times.[]

Besides, there are so many heavy artillery.

With so many soldiers, they cannot display their strength even if they are concentrated together.

I don't think it's better to lead a group of people each and let them play freely.

Whoever breaks the city first will send the signal."

Zhou Weiguo thought about it. With such overwhelming strength, why should he look forward and backward?

Ding Wei smiled and said:"Sun Tzu's Art of War says: Therefore, the method of using troops is to surround it with ten, attack with five, and double it. If they are divided, the enemy can be fought, if they are few, they can escape, if they are weak, they can be avoided.

We are not only strong in numbers, but also in weapons.

It is indeed unreasonable to be timid with such firepower."

Everyone nodded.

Zhou Weiguo said:"In that case, let's stop talking nonsense. Let's rest for one hour and attack separately for three hours. Let's play freely."

""Good" (Zhao De Zhao)

At 3 pm on July 1, the Guangdong army launched a general attack on Yan Xishan.

Zhou Weiguo's other army, Li Yunlong's other army, and Ding Wei's army, a total of three armies, attacked Taiyuan together.

After three hours After a fierce battle, the battle ended smoothly.

Except for some of the enemies who escaped, the rest were all captured. More than 10,000 enemies were annihilated and more than 20,000 were captured. Yan Xishan was captured. The

Taiyuan battle ended successfully. Zhou Weiguo met with Yan Xishan and presented to him He talked about the prisoner policy of the Guangdong army, and asked Yan Xishan with a smile:"How did Governor Yan feel about his defeat. Yan

Xishan shook his head and said with emotion:

"Since the Republic of China, I have been working hard to develop in the past few years.

But I didn't expect that the Guangdong army would suddenly emerge.

It is developing so fast. When President Shen dealt with Japan, I applauded it.

I just didn’t expect that you would suddenly come to take over my territory.

What you are doing is wrong, but I didn’t expect to lose so quickly. God helps you!"

Although Yan Xishan was defeated, he was still a little dissatisfied with his words.
