Guangxi, Yulin County.

A young general dressed in a military uniform during the Republic of China and with a resolute face stood at the head of Yulin County, inspecting the defense of the entire Yulin County. This person is none other than Li Zongren, who raised troops in Liangguang. At that time, the strength of a battalion has now expanded to more than 2,000 people, and the entire Yulin area has been turned upside down by them.

"Commander, the Gui department has done it." Li Zongren's staff officer Zhang Tao said.

"Is it finally getting started? Unexpectedly, as soon as the war ended in the northeast, the people of the Gui family couldn't wait to do it. It seems that they really treat us as a big problem. Li Zongren said with a smile. Li Zongren's troops called themselves the First Army of Guangxi, with the aim of opposing the Gui faction headed by Lu Rongting and restoring the national republic. Although it is nominally an army, its strength is only more than 2,000 people, and the number of troops in battle is even smaller.

"Commander, this time the Gui Department dispatched Lu Yuguang's guard regiment, the number of which is 3,000 people, and I heard that Lu Yuguang's guard regiment is all elite veterans who jumped out of the Gui department, and their combat effectiveness is always strong. With only more than 2,000 of us, I'm afraid this battle will ......," Zhang Tao said with a frown. With more than 2,000 troops against the 3,000 elites of the Gui system, no matter how you look at it, you will lose more and win less.

"Don't worry, although this Lu Yuguang is known as the young marshal of the Gui family, there is no comparison with the Northeast Feng Shaoshuai at all. Lu Yuguang's name is even bigger, and it is blown out of the Gui system. We don't have to worry too much about it. Li Zongren said indifferently. It seems that Lu Yuguang's three thousand elites are really not in his eyes.

"How's the recruit going? The war between Tohoku and Japan also came to an end. I'm afraid that Lu Yuguang's move is just the beginning, and I am afraid that we will have to encircle and suppress Gui's 10,000 troops in the future, and the back soldiers must be complete. Li Zongren thought for a while and said.

"Commander, it's not difficult to recruit new recruits, it's just that we are really short of weapons and ammunition. Even now, weapons are scarce in combat units. If we don't get weapons and ammunition through other channels, I'm afraid we won't be able to last long. Liu Tao said worriedly. The Yulin region is inland, and the north is not far from Hunan, which is controlled by Beiyang, but Li Zongren and they have no connection with Beiyang, and Beiyang is now overwhelmed by the northeast, so they may not have the heart to pay attention to them. The interior of the southwest is not very stable, and even if Cai Yi returns to the southwest as quickly as possible, it is not possible to stabilize the situation in a short period of time. This made it even more difficult for Li Zongren's troops.

"Don't worry, weapons and ammunition will always be available." Li Zongren said with great confidence.

"Commander, how should we meet Lu Yuguang's guard regiment?"

"Night Attack!" Li Zongren looked at the sun that was gradually setting westward and said.

February in Guangxi is completely different from February in the Northeast, the Northeast is still cold, but the weather is already bright in spring, and even the weather is a little hot at noon.

The territory of Guilin is mountainous, and after Lu Rongting ruled the two Guangzhous, he was not enthusiastic about the construction of infrastructure, so the roads in the territory were basically the old official roads of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which were in disrepair for a long time, and the march was naturally not fast. And Lu Yuguang was full of confidence in this battle, although because of the Battle of the Northeast, this operation was postponed for a while. However, according to the intelligence of the Gui department, although Li Zongren's troops were dissatisfied with the development during this period, and the number of troops expanded from hundreds to 2,000, they were extremely short of weapons and equipment. Because the real Yulin area has been blocked by the Gui system. The increase in weapons and ammunition of Li Zongren's ministry was extremely limited. With 3,000 elite veterans who had experienced the war against 2,000 troops with less weapons and ammunition, Lu Yuguang didn't think that he would fail. Under this kind of thinking, Lu Yuguang's troops marched more arrogantly. As soon as night fell, the troops looked for a place to correct it. did not put Li Zongren in his eyes at all.

The night was dark, and except for the few guards left by the Gui Guard Regiment, the other soldiers fell into a deep sleep. Tomorrow, the Gui guard regiment will be able to reach the Yulin area, and they will also recuperate and strive to solve the stubborn illness of Li Zongren's gang at one time.

"Commander, this is the enemy's camp! The enemy's alert is very poor, when shall we move? Liu Tao said in a low voice.

"After a while, wait until the middle of the moon, when people sleep the deepest. It's also the best time for us to attack. Have the soldiers prepare fire oil and oil-soaked torches. This terrain is still relatively suitable for fire attack. Our forces are at a disadvantage, and even if we do launch a sneak attack, it is dangerous, so we must rely on the power of nature. Li Zongren said as he looked at the surrounding terrain carefully. Thinking about the feasibility of a fire attack. In this world, Guangxi has a warm climate in spring. The grass also appeared blue, but the dead grass was still very thick, and there was no rain in the past few days, and the climate was relatively dry, which was a good time for fire.

"Yes!" Liu Tao answered in a low voice, and then quickly retreated to prepare. Liu Tao left, and Li Zongren, under the protection of several guards, carefully reconnoitred the surrounding terrain. Imprint this terrain all in your mind.

In the middle of the moon, there are a lot of guard troops within the Gui Guard Regiment, and I wonder if the soldiers in charge of the guard are also asleep.

Silently, Li Zongren's troops touched not far from the guard regiment.

Boom!

With a dull sound of cannons, a gap immediately appeared in the guard fortifications built by the Gui Guard Regiment. These are two earthen cannons left over from the Manchu era, and I didn't expect them to come in handy here, and the obstacles on the way forward were clear at one time.

Kill!

A loud shout of killing rang out. Li Zongren's troops rushed into the camp like fierce tigers, and it was Li Zongren himself who rushed to the front.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ……”

There were terrible shouts in the camp of the Guards, and then the whole camp went into chaos.

Kill!

Dense shouts of killing sounded in all directions of the camp, and at the same time there was the sound of gunfire with dense drums.

Although the soldiers of the guard battalion are composed of elite veterans, they have not fought in the army since joining the army, and the run-in training is not satisfactory. Now suddenly faced with this situation, the entire guard regiment suddenly became a big mess.

When Lu Yuguang ran out of the big tent with a panicked face, all he saw was shouts of killing and dense gunfire in all directions.

"Damn, what's going on! Assemble your team and fight against the enemy! Lu Yuguang shouted loudly. However, at this time, no one could hear what he said.

"Young Marshal, we are surrounded by enemies. The enemy's strength is not 2,000 men, judging by the shouts of killing, the enemy's strength is at least 6,000 or more. And the enemy is attacking from all sides, and the entire guard regiment is already in chaos, young marshal, I have already assembled half a battalion, let's protect you and rush out! Lu Yuguang's floating Guo Haixiong said.

"Uncle Guo, we can't escape, if we escape, then my guard regiment will be finished. No, I have to come down. The panic on Lu Yuguang's face disappeared, and a determined look appeared on his face.

"Young marshal, this is too dangerous, you must leave as soon as possible!" Guo Haixiong said loudly. When he came, Lu Rongting gave an explanation, which greatly guaranteed the safety of Lu Yuguang's life. Lu Rongting has already lost his own son, if even his stepson has been lost. Then he's really dead. Although Lu Rongting was born in the Zhuang nationality, as a Manchu official, he had already reached out to the influence of Han culture, and he also attached great importance to inheritance. Moreover, Lu Yuguang, as the young marshal of the Gui family and the only heir, has some important roles in the stability of the Gui family. Based on this, Lu Rongting will never allow Lu Yuguang to have an accident.

"No, the guard regiment is the first unit led by my Lu Yuguang, it is my foundation, I can't abandon this brother for my life, so how can I, Lu Yuguang, gain a foothold in the Gui family. Uncle Guo, I know that you are doing all this for my good, but I, Lu Yuguang, can't be a turtle with a shrunken head. Lu Yuguang shook his head with a pale face. Although he was nervous inside, thinking of his future and the mission he was going to shoulder, Lu Yuguang forced himself to face it strongly.

"Young marshal, it's not good, the enemy is very strong, our resistance troops have suffered heavy losses, and now the whole army is in chaos. Young marshal, let's go, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood. We still have an army of Gui Coefficient, and we have a chance to make a comeback. An officer covered in blood rushed to Lu Yuguang and said loudly.

"How many enemies are there?" Lu Yuguang asked urgently.

"It's a lot, and there's a lot of fire in the back, and in the darkness of the night, it's hard to determine the number of Jedi." The wounded officer shouted. He's on guard tonight, so he's the quickest to react. But his concentrated troops were routed by a brave charge by Li Zongren. Even he himself was wounded, and if he hadn't run fast, I'm afraid his life would have been handed over.

"Damn, are you sure who it is? How could Li Zongren have so many people? Lu Yuguang still didn't believe that this was Li Zongren's person. After all, there were only more than 2,000 people in his invitation.

"It's not good, young marshal, let's go quickly, the enemy is fireproof. The terrain here is suitable for fire attack, if we go slower. I'm afraid I really won't be able to go. Adjutant Guo Haixiong said loudly.

"Uncle Guo......" Lu Yuguang still wanted to say something.

"Take the young marshal away! We broke out from the south! Looking at the three parties without fire, Guo Haixiong chose one side and rushed out with Lu Yuguang in tow.

Lu Yuguang fled. Capture Lu Yuguang alive! Half a quarter of an hour later, the news of Lu Yuguang's breakthrough spread throughout the battlefield at the fastest speed. The Gui soldiers no longer had the fighting spirit and threw away their weapons and surrendered.

"Victorious ......"

There was cheering on the battlefield. Li Zongren wrapped several wounds on his hands with bandages, and then looked at the waves of escorted prisoners and mountains of weapons and ammunition with excitement on his face.

"Commander, we won, but let Lu Yuguang's kid escape." Liu Tao said with a dark face. He had brought the two dirt slopes, and because of the lack of gunpowder, they asked for homemade black powder, and as a result, they were also made into by the black smoke.
