Under the concern of all forces, on the northern battlefield, the Northeast soldiers, under the command of Jiang Baili, finally besieged 80,000 people of the Beiyang Army on the northern border in the Tongzhou area after three days of hard fighting. The other units were either transferred by other units of the Northeast Army or were eliminated.

In order to deal with these prisoners and solve the worries of the front-line soldiers as much as possible, Feng Yong transferred security regiments from all over the country to form a logistics corps, which specialized in handling the logistics supply in the northeast and receiving prisoners from the troops on the battlefield. This allows the soldiers of the Northeast to be used on the battlefield to the greatest extent possible. As a result, the Northeast and Beiyang gradually gained absolute upper hand from the equal strength of the Northeast to the Northeast.

The Tongzhou area is dozens of kilometers away from the city of Běi Jīng. In later generations, Tongzhou City was already a subsidiary part of Běi Jīng. Become a district of Běi Jīng. But now, Tongzhou is only a small county in Rehe province. Because of the topography, Tongzhou County covers a wide area. The 80,000 Beiyang troops were trapped here, which completely restrained the Beiyang forces in the north.

In order to deal with Jin Yunpeng's 80,000 jīng rui, the northeast concentrated an army of 120,000 and surrounded the Beiyang enemy from all sides.

In the county town of Tongzhou, there was a gloomy cloud, and the 80,000-strong army launched a breakthrough operation, but it was a pity that under the firepower of the Dongbei security army, not only did the battle line not break through, but also lost troops and generals, which seriously affected the morale of the troops. Faced with this situation, Jin Yunpeng, who was afraid of death, reported the situation to Duan Qirui of Běi Jīng.

After Duan Qirui received the specific situation of the battle situation in the north, his heart sank into a trough. In just three days, there was a chaotic battle between the Northeast and Beiyang in the Chaharre River area, and according to the statistics of the last Northeast, the two sides fought thousands of times in these three days. The smallest scale is the battle of battalion-level troops, and the large-scale is the siege of Tongzhou that is now underway in the northeast.

"Order Fu Liangzuo and Ni Sichong to lead the army back to defend Běi Jīng City." Duan Qirui said in a deep voice.

"Inform Vice President Feng Guozhang and ask him to fully replace Li Yuanhong's position as acting president, and send a telegram to the whole country to abolish Li Yuanhong's presidency." The situation has reached now, if Duan Qirui didn't know that Li Yuanhong had fallen into the hands of the Northeast, then he would not be worthy of the name of the Three Heroes of Beiyang. Now the northern battlefield is erosive, and the army of more than 100,000 is not the opponent of the northeast, and it is said that Ni Sichong, the 10,000-person army led by Fu Liangzuo. The reason why they returned to Jingshi was to calm the hearts of the people in the entire city of Běi Jīng. The běi jīng city of peace and stability can give Duan Qirui ideas. And no matter what the results of the Northeast are, Li Yuanhong will be pushed to the foreground by the Northeast, and he will be completely passive at that time. Therefore, in order to reduce the influence of Li Yuanhong on Beiyang as much as possible, Duan Qirui could only strike first, let Feng Guozhang take the throne, and abolish Li Yuanhong's orthodox position as acting president. Of course, Duan Qirui also knew that this situation was only a symptom rather than a cure. But in his current form, he doesn't have a good solution.

It's not that Beiyang doesn't have jīng soldiers, it's just that because of the Battle of the Southwest, the most sharp Xu Shuzheng and Cao Kun troops in Beiyang are now on the southwest front, confronting the Southwest New Army, even if he wants to be transferred, he can't get to Běi Jīng in a short time. After all, now is not the afterlife, and the time it takes for the army to march long distances is unimaginable. I am afraid that by the time the Jīng Rui of the two lakes in the Beiyang arrives at the northern battlefield, the Northeast has already broken through the city of Běi Jīng and completely captured these high-ranking people.

Northeast, Marshal's Mansion.

Feng Yong's whole person became extremely excited, and the performance of the front-line army was far beyond his expectations. Beiyang's nearly 200,000-strong army collapsed in less than three days. The Northeast captured no less than 50,000 prisoners alone, plus the Jin Yunpeng Department who was wiped out on the battlefield by the Northeast Army and was besieged in Tongzhou. The Beiyang Army, which is active in the vast areas of the north, is less than 30,000 people. After hard fighting, the attrition of the Northeast Army was also quite serious, and the growth of Běi Jīng soldiers was accompanied by blood. Specific statistics have not yet been released, but there are no less than 10,000 corpses transported back from the front line. Coupled with the light and serious wounded, the entire Northeast Army has no worries about the possibility of sustaining combat and the 150,000 people. It also includes the newly reorganized troops of the Feng Army, which has more than 60,000 people. It can be said that the performance of the Northeast Army has far exceeded Feng Yong's expectations. How could this not be his surprise. With the training conditions of the Northeast Army, as long as you have experienced several battlefield experiences, you may become a veteran of Jīng Rui.

"Destroy Jin Yunpeng or take Běi Jīng City?" Feng Yong frowned and pondered. To tell the truth, if the troops were divided to attack the city of Běi Jīng, it would be possible to give the besieged troops an opportunity. This will allow the power of the Beiyang to be preserved, which will not be conducive to the next battle. But if you insist on eliminating Jin Yunpeng, you will be given time to běi jīng. With the huge strength of Beiyang, it was able to draw a large number of defending troops in an extreme time. With the thick walls of Běi Jīng City, it resisted the footsteps of the northeast. Moreover, if you attack Jin Yunpeng at this time, you may be severely injured by Jin Yunpeng's troops who jumped over the wall in a hurry. After all, rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry. Not to mention tens of thousands of Beiyang troops.

"Report the young marshal! Emergency power in Ganning area! Xu Zheng said with some excitement.

"Southwest, is it a telegram from the chief of staff?"

"So, now that the chief of staff is in the Mongolian steppe, he will rush back as quickly as possible. Moreover, the telegram of the chief of staff also said that the young marshal would be able to take the city of Běi Jīng as soon as possible. ”

"Give me the telegram!" Feng Yong said in a deep voice.

Looking at the telegram in his hand, Feng Yong pondered for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Xu Zheng, send a report to Deputy Commander Jiang." He was asked to besiege Jin Yunpeng and concentrate Jīng's sharp troops to move towards the city of Běi Jīng. At the same time, the momentum must be sufficient! ”

"Yes!" Xu Zheng did not hesitate at all, although he didn't understand the meaning of Feng Yong's order for a while, but as Feng Yong's operational staff officer, his job was to convey Feng Yong's instructions, and if conditions permitted, he would put forward his own suggestions.

"Běi Jīng City! If we attack at this time, I am afraid that Duan Qirui will do everything to organize troops to fight, which will not be conducive to our taking of Běi Jīng City. Feng Yong said. After all, Běi Jīng, as the center of Chinese politics, has a large number of descendants, and the reputation of Northeast China in Guannai has always been bad. Now storm the city of Běi Jīng and destroy this ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. I am afraid that it will cause a backlash from all sides, which Feng Yong does not want to see. And with Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang's political enlightenment, if they didn't know that Li Yuanhong had fallen into the hands of him Feng Yong at this time, then they would not be able to be called the three heroes of Beiyang. Duan Qirui and Li Yuanhong are different, they are solid and rely on their strength to become the high-level of Beiyang. Therefore, Beiyang will definitely take measures to weaken Li Yuanhong's political influence as much as possible. Even in the future, Northeast China and Beiyang each have a zhèng fǔ known as Beiyang orthodoxy, which has long been expected by Feng Yong. Therefore, since the confrontation between the two sides is inevitable, there is no need for Feng Yong to fight to the death with Beiyang now. Because the situation facing the Northeast is not happy now. The Russians are still at war in their country, and the wave of red sè power is becoming more and more obvious, and even in the Far East, the sprouts of red sè have appeared. However, this kind of red sè sprout was not as strong as the Governor's Office of Western Lea, Tsarist Russia. After several sabotages of the leadership of the Red Sè forces in the Far East, they retracted their tentacles to Europe and turned their attention to the enemies of Tsarist Russia. And the Northeast and Rì are the best choices.

Compared to the powerful rìben, the Northeast seems to be more favored by the red sè. After all, Rì Ben is powerful, and he has a feud with the Russians. The sprout of the red sè was also bred by the Russians. They reject Rì himself from the bottom of their bones. After all, the defeat of the Russo-Russian War is a disgrace to the entire Russian nation. The Northeast is different. Although the Northeast is developing rapidly, this cannot hide the fact that they have just risen. When such young forces appear, they will be rejected by the original old forces. And this can be seen from the constant fighting that has been going on since the establishment of the Northeast. Therefore, the senior management of the sprout of Red Sè believes that there is a basis for cooperation between the two sides. After all, the giant sword of the Russian Far East Army hangs over the head of the Northeast. There is also the pressure of Rì himself, and it is in the interests of the Northeast to join forces with the red sè to drag down the enemy all the way. So the Red Sè group appeared in Changchūn, only to stop its activities because of the sudden war in the Tohoku. They also know that now is not the time to contact the Northeast, after all, the budding of the red sè is still only in the shadows, and it is a wanted criminal in the entire Tsarist Russia. Moreover, the panic of the red sprouts being chased and killed by the zhèng fǔ army in Russia is like a lost dog, and they have no strength to negotiate with the northeast at all. After all, when the Northeast and the big domestic forces are developing, what is most needed is a stable rear, and the rear is Russia and Rìben. Even the person in charge of the Red Sè thought that if they appeared in the Northeast Governor's Palace, Feng Yong would even directly arrest them and send them to Tsarist Russia in exchange for stability in the northeast.

Of course, the person in charge of the red sè didn't know that their camouflage was not strict in the northeast, after all, the budding red sè were all Europeans with high eyebrows and deep eyes, and such people would be concerned when they appeared in the northeast, not to mention the people who appeared in the long chūn mysteriously. The current Northeast Intelligence Department, after the integration of the dark stab, the black and white systems will be impregnable in the operation of the entire three eastern provinces. Therefore, the person who sprouted red sè had already been monitored by the assassins. It's just that Feng Yong spoke personally, it is not suitable to contact the red sè now, everything will be said when the war is over, as for the Tsarist Russia in the north, with many backhands arranged by Feng Yong before, he is not afraid of any actions from them.

"Send a report to the Southeast Military Region, let them secretly pay attention to the movements of the North Korean army, and report it immediately if there is a change!" Feng Yong said in a deep voice. No matter when, Feng Yong never forgot in his heart, the biggest enemy of China. Moreover, Feng Yong has already sensed the sudden large-scale increase of troops to North Korea, so he has strengthened the strength of the Southeast Military Region accordingly, and the supply of weapons and medicine to the Southeast Military Region is also limited, so it can be said that the current Southeast Military Region is definitely the largest military region in the Northeast. Moreover, it is a large military region with the largest number of troops.

On the front line of Běi Jīng, after receiving Feng Yong's order, Jiang Baili did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and quickly transferred Jīng Rui from the besieging troops, and then gathered the Northeast Army that surrounded and suppressed the remnants of Beiyang in various places, and obtained a total of 50,000 people, and the army falsely claimed to be 100,000 people, set off from Tongzhou, and rushed to Běi Jīng City with great fanfare. Of course, the actions of the Northeast Army could not be hidden from the eyes of Beiyang. In this case, Duan Qirui immediately ordered Jin Yunpeng's troops to take the opportunity to launch an attack, and they must break through the defense line of the Northeast Army and return to the Beijing Division. Then Duan Qirui was ready to rely on the troops in his hands and the thick city walls of Běi Jīng to have a good battle with the northeast.

Jin Yunpeng received Duan Qirui's order and was overjoyed. You know, under the siege of the Northeast, he was so scared that he died. After enjoying the pampering of the past few years, he has already been smoothed out by politics, and there is no longer a god of outlaw that his head is pinned to expand. It's just that now that the Northeast Army is besieged, he can't escape even if he wants to. Now that he received the information from Běi Jīng, he did not stop for a moment, and immediately organized a large army to launch a breakthrough operation.

Because of the narrowness of Tongzhou County, it is impossible for an army of 80,000 to break through from one city gate, and can only choose two or three city gates. However, when the Beiyang Army launched an attack, it was surprised to find that the firepower in the northeast had not decreased much at all. Rows of heavy machine guns still took a heavy toll on them. Feng Yong from later generations was different from the warlords of this era, and was deeply influenced by the gunfight ideas of later generations, and Feng Yong advocated crushing all the enemy's tricks with peak firepower. Therefore, after the success of imitating heavy machine guns in the arsenal in the Northeast, Feng Yong did not stop ordering heavy machine guns for a moment, which also made the heavy machine gun equipment level of the Northeast Security Army far exceed that of the warlord troops in the same period in China. Of course, the consumption of pills is also the same as a few horrors. But Feng Yong didn't care, why did he have to sacrifice the lives of soldiers if he could solve the problem with bullets. Moreover, there is no shortage of iron ore in the Northeast, the price of labor is not high, and the management of the Northeast Arsenal is relatively scientific, and the production capacity of the factory is extremely high. If it weren't for Feng Yong's order, I'm afraid the Changchūn Arsenal would have been famous throughout China. After all, the only countries that China has the ability to mass-produce arms and weapons and can still sell them are the Hanyang Arsenal, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, and a few other old factories in Beiyang, which have been stiff and have limited production capacity. The quality can not be reported to this. It is far from being comparable to the vibrant arsenal of the Northeast.

"Charge! Charge Lao Tzu! Do whatever it takes, make a gap! Jin Yunpeng stood in the command headquarters and roared. It's a pity that in the face of the firepower intertwined with heavy machine guns at several city gates, even if the soldiers of Beiyang use it again, it is difficult to make a difference.

"Dashuai, you can't rush. Our troops can't afford to lose! Jin Yunpeng's adjutant grabbed Jin Yunpeng, who was almost crazy. In the early Beiyang charge, the heavy machine guns in the Northeast never stopped. In just half an hour, the corpses at the gate of the city were piled up. Moreover, under the bullets full of tearing power of the main machine gun, the corpse was directly torn into stumps, and the entire city gate was stained red with blood.

"Get out! The prime minister said that the enemy had drawn out most of its troops and went to Běi Jīng. The rest are old, weak, sick and disabled, we will definitely be able to rush out, we will definitely be able to! Extreme hope turned into extreme disappointment, and Jin Yunpeng's mind collapsed a little.

"Dashuai, wake up! We can't rush out, the ammunition in the northeast is too sufficient. There are heavy machine gun positions in front of us, and none of us can rush out, do you want to become a piece of minced meat under the city wall like our charging soldiers! The adjutant said bitterly.

"Minced meat?" Jin Yunpeng looked at the thick mountain of flesh and blood under the city gate, and only felt a tremor in his stomach and intestines, he had a feeling of vomiting, and at the same time, a coolness went straight to his brain from the soles of his feet. This feeling of horror also made him completely relaxed.

"Adjutant, give the order, stop the attack, withdraw to the city. Arrange for the soldiers to take back the city. The Northeast Security Army does not attack and does not allow provocations. "Now Jin Yunpeng has become a rat in an urn. It is possible to be eaten by the Northeast Army at any time. Even if you want to, you can't escape.

"The Prime Minister sent a report! The enemy used hundreds of heavy machine guns to block the four city gates of Tongzhou County, and the army launched eight charges, but was never able to break through the enemy's defensive line. After saying this, Jin Yunpeng's whole strength seemed to be hollowed out all of a sudden. If it weren't for the adjutant's quick eyes, he would have collapsed to the ground.

In Běi Jīng City, Duan Qirui received a telegram from Jin Yunpeng, and he couldn't hold back any longer.

"Waste, waste, all waste!" Duan Qirui roared.

"Prime Minister, don't be angry, take care of yourself!" Fu Liangzuo on the side said in a deep voice.

"Ryosa, look at the current situation, I just don't want to be angry. The glory of Beiyang for decades, you look at what has become now, what Beiyang celebrities, I think they are all rice bucket celebrities. Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Duan Qirui felt much better in his heart. Although vomiting blood will hurt his vitality, if he doesn't vent it, I'm afraid his whole body will be angry to death.

"Prime Minister, now is not the time to discuss this, Jin Yunpeng I still understand, although his performance in the past few years has been really bad, and people have also behaved greedily for life and fear of death, but his military command ability is still good. It's just that the strength of the Northeast is too strong now. Prime Minister, it's time for us to think about the gains and losses of běi jīng! Fu Liangzuo said soberly. There is a way for the bystanders to be clear, and the authorities are confused. Now the priority of the situation Duan Qirui can't see it angrily, but he Fu Liangzuo is clear. As the undersecretary of the army of the Republic of China, he has the responsibility to remind Duan Qirui.

“běi jīng？ Ryosa, what do you mean? Do you want me to give up běi jīng? Duan Qirui asked angrily.

"If the situation really reaches an irretrievable situation, it is okay to give up běi jīng!" Fu Liangzuo said despite Duan Qirui's ugly face.

"Humph! Say no more. I will not give up the city of Běi Jīng. běi jīng is the foundation of the rise of Beiyang, how can it be easily given up to the rebellious ministers and thieves, not to mention that now that the Northeast has mastered Li Yuanhong, if they get běi jīng, they can really get the name of zhōng yāng, no, absolutely not! ”

...
