Xiliang Ancient City. Ning naval station.

Ning Haijun Ma Qi's face was very ugly. Ma Lin's face, which was standing under him, was also not good-looking.

"Big brother, we fell for Zhang Guangjian's calculations. Damn it. The Northeast is so strong. Not only did we suffer heavy losses, but we also provoked a great enemy like the Northeast. Ma Lin said indignantly.

"That's it! It's already happened, and it's useless to say anything more. You should immediately take our men to Lanzhou and fetch the 3,000 rifles that Governor Zhang promised us. Speaking of which, we blame ourselves for being too greedy. Without understanding the situation in the Northeast in advance, Zhang Guangjian was made a gunman. Fuck, who would have known that the strength of the Northeast, which has only risen for more than a year, is so strong. "This time to ambush the vanguard regiment in the northeast, Ma Qi is the jīng sharp cavalry of the Ning Navy. With the superiority of cavalry, plus it was an ambush. Only then did they swallow the entire Pioneer Regiment in one gulp, and by the end of the war, their losses had reached more than 3,000 troops, more than the number of the Northeast Pioneer Regiment that was ambushed. When his younger brother Ma Lin reported to him the results of Ning's naval damage, he couldn't believe his eyes. To know. They dispatched more than 12,000 people. Another ambush, coupled with the convenience of the terrain, can be said to have taken advantage of it. Even so, his battle damage was still comparable to that of the enemy. If this war is a head-on shock. Ma Qi didn't dare to imagine the result.

The moment he knew the result, Ma Qi regretted it. You must know that the northeast has dispatched more than 30,000 Jīng Rui troops to the west. If the main forces in the northeast have the combat effectiveness of the vanguard regiment, then even if the forces of the entire Ganning region are concentrated, they may not be the opponent of the Northeast Security Army. If it was before the ambush battle, the two sides might still have a chance to fight back, but now, I am afraid it is already a situation of endless death.

The ambush battle allowed Ma Qi to thoroughly see the combat effectiveness of the Northeast Security Army, so he began to collect information about the Northeast Security Army. The more I collected, the more frightened I became. Although the time for the rise of the Northeast is short, the brilliant achievements achieved are not comparable to the Ma Jiajun in the Northwest. What made the Ma Qi brothers even more desperate was that the Northeast actually had hundreds of thousands of Jīng Rui troops, and their strength was not much different from that of the Beiyang Army. Such a behemoth is something that the small Ma Jiajun can provoke.

However, Ma Qi is a generation of heroes after all, and when he knew that the matter was irreparable, he asked his younger brother to get back the benefits promised by Governor Zhang first. If Zhang Guangjian wanted to perfunctory him in this matter, he Ma Qi didn't mind pulling Governor Zhang to face the Northeast Security Army.

"Ma Kui, you quickly go and inform Ma Anliang, the commander of the Western Army, Ma Fuxiang, the commander of the Anning Army, and Zhang Guangjian, the governor of Gansu. At the same time, the head of the Ma surname who has more than 500 troops will be gathered. If we want to maintain everything we have now, we must unite and repel the attack of the Northeast Security Army. Ma Qi was unwilling to sit still, came out, he had become a faction of his own, he had also become an existence like an emperor of the soil, and he had enjoyed the feeling of being in power, Ma Qi definitely didn't want to give up the power in his hands like this. However, no matter how powerful the Northeast is, the forces of the Ganning region combined will definitely be able to resist the attack of the Northeast. Just when Ma Qi imagined that the forces of the horses in the Ganning region would be integrated, completely rejecting the northeast and maintaining the happy life of their soil emperor. It's a pity that this dream was shattered before it was finished.

"Commander, Commander, it's not good. The army of the Northeast has hit! Ning Haijun scouted the horse and ran in in a panic.

"What, how could it be so fast! How many people are there? Ma Qi's face turned a little pale.

"No less than 30,000 people! And among them there were brigades of cavalry. Now it is less than ten kilometers away from our Xiliang Ancient City. The herald said with fear on his face.

The enemy did not report until it was close to ten kilometers, which may be the reason why Ma Jiajun was lagging behind. The individual combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Ma Jiajun is not weak, but the system of the army is destined to have a gap between him and the modern troops, especially in the aspect of troop communications, the penetration rate of radio in the Ma Jiajun is extremely low, and only the brigade-level establishment has it. Because the entire army was dominated by cavalry, and there was a cavalry message, Ning Haijun didn't notice anything wrong. But it was only at this moment that Ma Qi realized how slow the troops without a radio station could react. But now it is no longer a matter of considering radio, and the enemy's army is pressing the border, and it is always necessary to have an idea whether to fight or flee.

Now the enemy was only ten kilometers away from their lair, and with the speed of cavalry, he could reach it in half an hour at the earliest, and half an hour only allowed him to concentrate his entire force.

"Bastard, who leaked the news, otherwise why would the Northeast cross the closer Ma Fuxiang and attack us directly." Ma Qi's face is difficult to see the extreme. Although the ambush of the Northeast Pioneer Regiment caused his Ning Navy to suffer heavy losses, it provoked the invincible enemy of the Northeast. But Ma Qi thinks that he has done a very clean job, and they are not the only ones who have the ability to annex the Pioneer Regiment in the Ganning region. It is definitely not easy for the Northeast to find out who did it. After all, for outsiders, the troops controlled by the people surnamed Ma in the Ganning area are all called Ma Jiajun, and only people in Ganning know that Ma Jiajun includes the Western Army, the Ning Navy, and the Anning Army. Among them, the Western Army has the largest number of troops, and the Ning Navy is the strongest. The Anning Army has the highest prestige because of its command of Ma Fuxiang.

Before ambushing the vanguard regiment in the northeast, Ma Qi was indeed blinded by the benefits proposed by Governor Zhang Guangjian. But after the incident, while he was afraid, he was also secretly glad in his heart. After all, the Northeast came from the Mongolian steppes. The first to bear the brunt between the Ganning region and Mongolia was the Anning Army controlled by Ma Fuxiang.

Although Ma Fuxiang is a little wrong with his Ning Navy, in the final analysis, they are all local forces in the Ganning area, and they are all troops controlled by the surname Ma. Even if Ma Fuxiang wanted to surrender, the Anning Army under his control might not be happy. And once the Anning Army is attacked by the Northeast, even if Ma Fuxiang is unwilling, if the Anning Army wants to save, it will become inevitable to unite with the Ning Navy and the Western Army.

The battle in which the Northeast Public Security Army sent troops to attack the Ning Navy was fought very suddenly, and suddenly the other forces had just received the news that Ma Qi was going to unite, and then they received the news that Ma Qi was attacked by the Northeast. In the ancient city of Xiliang, even if Ma Qi tried his best, he only gathered about 7,000 troops. After the ambush of the vanguard regiment, the main force of the Rangning Navy shrank from 12,000 to 9,000, and 2,000 light and serious wounded were removed. Therefore, there are only more than 7,000 people in the entire Ning Navy who can maintain full combat effectiveness. In terms of troops, it is inferior even to a brigade in the Northeast. However, this time in the northeast, three brigades were concentrated, with a total strength of 30,000 troops. Li Jun also made up his mind to use all his current forces to prepare to wipe out or cripple the Ning Navy at one time.

"Big brother, what should we do?" Ma Qi saw the Northeast Security Army surging in the distance like cháo water from the top of the city, and said with a sad face. The Ma family army is mainly cavalry, and they are not good at defending the city at all. Although their old nest is known as the ancient city of Xiliang, it is really just a larger county seat. Moreover, although the Ganning area is unstable, it is more often a clash of cavalry. Therefore, the city in the entire Ganning region is not very majestic. The ability to defend the city is even less impressive. It's a bit of a joke to try to use this kind of wall to block the attack of the northeast.

"Withdraw!" Ma Qi squeezed the word out between his teeth. The 7,000 cavalry wanted to fight against the mixed cavalry and infantry of 30,000 people, and they resisted some foolish dreams. Ma Qi is a hero who knows when to give up and when to persevere.

I have to say that Ma Jiajun can dominate the Ganning region and indeed have a certain amount of capital, although it cannot meet the order and prohibit, but it can be regarded as well-trained. With Ma Qi's order, 7,000 cavalry soon rushed out of the city and rushed to the hinterland of the Ganning region.

Thundered! The earth was galloping, and the cavalry in the northeast broke away from the large infantry forces. began to pursue the Ning navy, which had rushed out of the city.

"Big brother, we have been bitten by the enemy. Now what? "Although the war horses of the Northeast and the war horses of the Ning Navy are basically the same breeds, they are both from the Mongolian steppe. But because of the abundant materials in the Northeast, Feng Yong also attaches great importance to war horses. The breeding of war horses is extremely scientific, which makes the ability of Mongolian war horses to be developed to the maximum. The Ma Jiajun's war horses are limited to the conditions in the Ganning area, and the breeding level of the war horses is limited, so the ability of the war horses is also limited. Therefore, when the two armies really charged, the cavalry of the Ning Navy fell behind, and the distance between the two sides was constantly approaching.

"Humph! 10,000 cavalry dare to pursue our Ning Navy, brothers, turn around and charge, let them see who is the ancestor of cavalry. A touch of ruthlessness appeared on Ma Qi's face. Ma Qi didn't want to fight the infantry of the Northeast Security Army, because he knew that the infantry of the Northeast Security Army had a staggering number of heavy machine guns. Although the Ning Navy is fierce, it is also completely target material in the face of heavy machine guns. But he was not afraid of the cavalry in the northeast. Because the vanguard regiment that they destroyed was all cavalry.

With Ma Qi's counter-charge, the two cavalry units that had been separated began to approach rapidly.

"Dudu Du......" A strange trumpet sounded in the Northeast Security Army. The Northeast Cavalry, which was charging forward, actually wanted to outflank the Ning Navy from the flank.

"Haha! Brothers, rush me! These Northeast cavalry are all dirt buns, and they want to swallow us in one bite when their strength is not dominant, just looking for death! Ma Lin, who led the charge of the troops, had a look of ecstasy on his face. If it's head-on, it's hard. The Northeast cavalry may have hope of victory by virtue of its superiority in strength, but to outflank it is to find its own death. Ma Lin was absolutely confident that the Ning Navy could defeat the cavalry in the northeast in the shortest possible time.

Thundered...... A faint sound of a car motor came into Ma Qi's ears. It's just that the roar of the cavalry makes him a little inaudible. He didn't care. After all, cars are too rare in the Northwest.

But then the Ma brothers' faces changed from ecstasy to iron, and then there was a deep fear. I saw more than a dozen military green trucks roaring up, and what frightened the Ma brothers even more was that there were three heavy machine guns on each car. After the separation of the Northeast cavalry in front, heavy machine guns began to spray tongues of fire. Ning Haijun, who rushed to the front, fell one after another.

"Withdraw! Evacuate! Ma Qi fled in confusion under the protection of the cavalry. Now his face was full of ashes, because the thirteen cars behind him roared up with thirty-nine heavy machine guns. The Ganning army went from charging, to stagnation, to U-turn. In this short period of time, a large number of cavalry fell. The Ma brothers' hearts are dripping blood. This is the army they started with, and with these troops they can dominate the Ganning region. I didn't expect to be massacre today.

What frightened the Ma brothers even more was that the car was galloping faster than a war horse on the grassland. This made Ning Haijun, who wanted to get rid of the heavy machine gun, unable to run the heavy machine gun shè Cheng at all. Can only continue to be a target for heavy machine guns.

"Disperse and break out!" Ma Qi shouted loudly, this is the only way to preserve the strength of the Ning Navy. Then he hid in the middle of the cavalry. With Ma Qi's words, the entire Ning Navy dispersed.

At this time, the originally outflanked Northeast cavalry had a place to use.

"Charge! Kill those who resist! Every Northeast cavalry held their breath in their hearts. They already knew the news of the fall of the Vanguard. You must know that the Pioneer Regiment was formed by drawing Jīng sharp troops from the entire Western Military Region, and quite a few soldiers from the Cavalry Brigade were also drawn in. There are many of them comrades-in-arms, robes, fellow countrymen. Those jīng Ying were silently wiped out by these turtle troops. How can this make the arrogant Northeast cavalry endure.

The ancient city of Xiliang, which had lost the garrison of the Ma family's army, easily fell into the hands of Li Jun. The army quickly took over the entire ancient city of Xiliang and quickly expanded to all sides. All those loyal to the Ma brothers of the Ning Navy were purged by the Northeast Security Army. The Northeast Security Army is full of murder against the rebels. Whether it is a Han or a Hui, the Northeast Security Army treats everyone equally.

Standing on the head of the ancient city of Xiliang, Li Jun took the telescope and looked at the battlefield in the distance. Behind him stood the top of the Western Military District.

"After this battle, the Ning Navy will be severely damaged even if it is not completely destroyed, and it will no longer pose a threat to us. Our first step in occupying the Ganning region has also been completed. Li Jun had a touch of relief on his face, and after crippling Ning Haijun, he could rest and rest with confidence.

"Chief of Staff rest assured, when Lao Cui's troops arrive, it will be time for us to launch an attack on all fronts. At that time, no matter what the Western Army or the Anning Army is, it will all be our dish. Zhang Xiaoshan said confidently. The defeat of the most powerful Ning Navy in the Ganning region made Zhang Xiaoshan breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and it could be regarded as a preliminary revenge for the fallen soldiers of the vanguard regiment. More importantly, it opened the first step for the northeast to occupy the Ganning region. It's a very good start.

"Commander Zhang, order the troops to stop the pursuit, clean up the battlefield, and consolidate our occupied area. It's no better than Mongolia, and our supplies have become difficult. It needs to be done steadily, step by step. Li Jun knew the purpose of Feng Yong's sending him. Feng Yong not only wants to occupy the northwest, but also to operate the northwest into a place with the same foundation as the northeast. Prepare for the future snake swallowing elephant plan.
