Nanning, Guangxi Military and Political Axe Administration.

"Pong!" "Pong!" "Whoa!!"

The crisp sound of porcelain breaking came from the inner hall again, and the maids and guards who were standing by the door in fear all subconsciously showed a look of horror.

From morning to now, they couldn't remember how many things had been smashed today.

From the moment he received the battle report from the front, the owner inside has been in this state of frenzy.

"The general is angry again?" A middle-aged man in a military uniform and carrying a briefcase hurriedly approached, and just when he heard the sound inside, he immediately stopped and whispered to a guard at the door.

"Yes...... I've been like this this morning...... It's all the battle report that provoked ......" The guard recognized him as Lu Rongting's brother-in-law, Tan Haoming, and replied in a low voice.

"Where's the battle report?" Tan Haoming asked.

"It seems to be a war report from Hepu and Qinzhou, where the battle was lost......"

"Oh, I see." Tan Haoming nodded, he looked down at the briefcase in his hand, took a deep breath, and knocked on the wooden door.

"Come in!" The voice coming from inside was irritated and restless, and deeply angry.

"General." The middle-aged man pushed open the door and entered the room, he looked at the floor full of broken porcelain tiles, carefully avoided them, and walked quickly to the elegant Western-style office desk.

At this moment, Lu Rongting, who was sitting on a Western-style chair, was looking at the people who came in with an angry face.

"What's the matter? A good thing or a bad thing? ”

Tan Haoming smiled bitterly, opened the briefcase, took out a few documents and put them on Lu Rongting's desk.

"I really can't imagine that this kid surnamed Yang has such a great ability!" After Lu Rongting read the documents, he threw them on the table angrily.

"It seems that his record in Qingdao against the Yue army was not blown out." Tan Haoming said, "Now that their gunboats have driven in, with our current strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist." ”

Listening to Tan Haoming's words, Lu Rongting's face became even more ugly, and his gaze involuntarily fell on the battle report on the table about the direction of Qinzhou, Lianzhou and Hepu.

"I actually ate Shen Hongying's men and horses in one day, I really wondered, even if I ate grass, it wouldn't be so fast!"

"The Jiangxi army has always been able to fight, well-equipped, far from being comparable to our army, and with the help of naval gunboats, we can win the war temporarily, and it will be difficult to resist after a long time," Tan Haoming said, "For today's plan, it is still based on 'harmony'." This person can tolerate Chen Jiongming's gang, but he may not be able to tolerate us. ”

"Do you want me Lu Rongting to kowtow to him, a hairy boy, Yuan Shikai's minion?" Lu Rongting slammed the table angrily and said loudly.

Tan Haoming closed his mouth, but he sighed disapprovingly in his heart.

said that the young man surnamed Yang was Yuan Shikai's minion, so after Yuan Shikai became emperor, he gave you the title of "General Yaowu" of General Lu, shouldn't you accept it?

"I asked you to check the source of his funds, how did you find out?" Lu Rongting asked.

"His funding comes mainly from the United States." Tan Haoming said, "Although the specific origin is not clear, one thing is certain, this person must be supported by the American consortium, just as Sun Dacang is supported by the consortium." It's just that Americans are more willing to spend money than they are to themselves. ”

"If that were the case, everything would have been clear." Lu Rongting's eyes became more and more gloomy, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

"Now that Yuan Shikai is dead, the imperial system is unsustainable, there will be a big change in Beijing, as long as we can hold on, we can still keep this southwest half of the wall......" Lu Rongting said to himself, his eyes instantly burst out with strong killing intent, "His surname Yang is supported by Americans, what can he do?" ”

"What does the general mean? ......" Tan Haoming startled the murderous aura in Lu Rongting's eyes, and he asked cautiously.

"Is there any news about Shen Hongying's uncompetitive bastard?" Lu Rongting asked.

"Not yet." Tan Haoming replied with some embarrassment.

Listening to Tan Haoming's words, Lu Rongting's face became ugly again.

"Shen Hongying's department has always had corrupt military discipline and extremely poor combat effectiveness, and the loss of the division this time is also expected." Tan Haoming hurriedly said, "In addition to this scourge, the fake hand Gan army has also saved us a lot of trouble. ”

"Hmm." Lu Rongting nodded quietly, "The next thing to see is how Mo Rongxin and Chen Bingkun play." ”

"Fighting is one thing, we should still reserve a back hand, the surname Yang is there, it's better to find a way to get in touch." Tan Haoming suggested again.

"Then you can find a way to try it." Lu Rongting replied vaguely.

Listening to Lu Rongting's answer, Tan Haoming suddenly showed joy.

At this time, Tan Haoming didn't expect that Lu Rongting's heart was playing another abacus.

After Tan Haoming said goodbye and left, Lu Rongting rang the bell, and an adjutant ran in quickly, Lu Rongting whispered a few words to him, then took the check book, took the pen and wrote on it a few times, and then tore off the check and handed it to the adjutant.

"Money is not a problem, if it is not enough, just tell me, give them cash, it doesn't have to be 'goldfish yellow'."

"Yes!"

"You have to get things done. I heard that this surnamed Yang has kung fu on his body, which is very difficult to deal with, and you have to find a few people who can use fast guns with hard hands, and they must be absolutely reliable. Do you understand? ”

"Yes! Please rest assured, General! The adjutant saluted and replied solemnly.

"Let's go!" Lu Rongting nodded, waved his hand, and the adjutant turned around and left quickly.

Lu Rongting watched the figure of the adjutant disappear at the door, his eyes returned to the battle report on the table, he remembered the battle on the front line, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

Hearing the roar of the aircraft engine coming from overhead, Mo Rongxin, the town guard of Guiping in Guangxi under the hillside, was terrified for a while.

Of course, he can understand now why Shen Hongying was beaten into a bare-bones commander.

At the beginning, when Mo Rongxin received the order to lead his troops to meet the Jiangxi-Guangdong coalition army, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

For Yang Shuoming, who once shocked the Shandong army, he has always had an instinctive fear in his heart, not to mention that this person only took a few months to pacify the entire territory of Guangdong.

Regarding Lu Rongting's order to come and fight the Gan army, which is accustomed to fighting, he has scolded him more than a hundred times in his stomach.

But the military order is like a mountain, no matter how reluctant Mo Rongxin is, he can only rush to the front line with his headquarters. Out of fear of the Jiangxi Army's aviation units, Mo Rongxin adopted the method of "day and night" to advance. Previously, he had received news that the first part of the Jiangxi army had marched west along the Xunjiang River, conquering Wuzhou and Mengjiang successively, and the front of the army was directed at Guiping. Mo Rongxin led the army to Guigang easily, and as soon as he landed, gunboats of the Jiangxi army appeared on the river.

And this first day of fighting made Mo Rongxin understand the power of the Gan army.

The Gan army landed on the river bank with great arrogance under the cover of gunboats and airplanes, and seeing that the number of the Gan army was not large, less than one battalion, Mo Rongxin planned to "attack halfway", so he sent three regiments to attack, but only after less than 20 minutes, only half of the three regiments he sent back returned.

Putting down the telescope that he was looking at, Mo Rongxin only felt a bitterness in his mouth.

Although Mo Rongxin was promoted to the current position of Guiping Town Envoy by relying on his relationship with Lu Rongting, it does not mean that he is a soldier who can only drill the battalion. In this era of war and chaos, cronyism dies quickly, and it is very difficult to gain a foothold in this era. Even if the relationship is hard, Lu Lao Ghost will not casually hand over so many people to him to toss, from his debut to the present, Mo Rongxin has also experienced many battles large and small before finally obtaining this position.

But the battle that happened just now couldn't help but make him feel terrified in his bones.

He had also seen just now that although the enemy's troops were small in number, they were exceptionally well-equipped for both officers and soldiers. The machine guns equipped by the other party are not only splashing like bullets, but the ordinary soldiers who use rifles are also surprisingly fast, accurate, and ruthless, compared to the people under their own hands, any person over there can be called one in a million elites here, even if they search back and forth a few times with an elite mixed brigade that they just formed not long ago, there will be no more than fifty people who can meet this requirement, and the troops on the opposite side can actually have so many elite soldiers, how can they not make Mo Rongxin feel shocked and frightened?

In addition to being afraid of the combat quality of the officers and soldiers of Jiangxi, what made Mo Rongxin feel even more terrifying was the kind of rocket that was like a flying locust and a fire dragon as soon as it was fought.

Mo Rongxin had long heard of this kind of weapon that made the army frightened on the battlefield in Shandong, but at first he only regarded this weapon as a legend spread by the people, and did not take it seriously, and just a few days ago, after seeing with his own eyes that all the officers and men of one of his main regiments were killed by the overwhelming attack of this weapon, he finally knew that the report in the newspaper at the beginning was a true fact.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

A violent explosion came, Mo Rongxin shrank his neck in fright, and stumbled into a bunker with several subordinates.

"Their bombers are here again." One of the adjutants said in shock.

"Who can stand such a bombing method." Someone intersected.

"I can't fight this battle at all......"

"No wonder they can beat me away, and I ......"

Due to the endless bombardment, the ability of the officers and men of Gui to withstand it had reached its limit, so they dared to say this in front of the commander without any taboos.

A bomb exploded not far from the bunker where Mo Rongxin was hiding, and the loud sound made the people in the bunker dizzy, Mo Rongxin was choked by the dust and coughed, and at this time, a communication soldier rushed into the bunker with a crawl, holding a telegram tightly in his hand.

"Report ...... Report sir! Chief Lee's urgent report! ”

Mo Rongxin easily recovered from the dizziness, he couldn't wait to take the telegram, opened it and only glanced at it, and his face immediately changed.

"Li Hanying, this bastard bastard! He actually threw Lao Tzu's back road to the enemy! ”

Hearing Mo Rongxin's angry scream, the faces of the people in the bunker were all crying and mournful.

"Sir! What do we do now? An adjutant asked with tears in his face.

"Pass my orders! Start breaking out now! Don't pause! Rush through the enemy's positions in a row! Retreaters! No mercy! ”

Mo Rongxin said, his face reappeared with the hideous color that he used to show when he was called "Mo Butcher".

The reason why he made such a decision was that Mo Rongxin was actually not crazy there, because at present, although the enemy forces in this direction were supported by heavenly planes, they did not seem to have heavy firepower such as rocket artillery, so if they relied on their absolute superiority in numbers to attack, they might be able to rush up and wrench themselves with the enemy and break out of the encirclement.

Mo Rongxin's judgment could not be said to be wrong, but what he didn't expect was that the reason why the enemy he was facing did not place heavy machine guns and other heavy firepower weapons on the frontal position, but put them all behind.

And when Mo Rongxin's troops began to scream and charge forward, the soldiers of the Gan army who were blocking in front of them also knew that the enemy was going to fight desperately this time.

Soon, the two sides exchanged fire again, this time, the surrounded Gui army was no longer as cowardly and cowering as just now, the human instinct for survival made the original outlaw blood surname in their bodies be stimulated, this time Mo Rongxin no longer felt sorry for the casualties of the troops, he knew that if he couldn't take the small hill in front of him, he and all the people would have to lie here.

The frantic attack of the Gui army finally had a certain effect, and the swarming Gui soldiers temporarily made up for the lack of firepower, this desperate charge regardless of casualties made the Gui army break through the death line that had been insurmountable just now, and in the bunker under the hillside, Mo Rongxin saw that his troops finally approached the enemy position in front with the help of the cover of the corpse. At this time, Mo Rongxin seemed to see the dawn of victory, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

Unfortunately, before he could rejoice, a dense and piercing roar of machine guns sounded on the hillside!

A heavy machine gun spewed out a stream of fire, and the bullets penetrated the obstacles that dared to block their flight path, and the soldiers of the Gui army, who had just approached the trenches of the Jiangxi army's position, fell in pieces like wheat under a sickle. Before Mo Rongxin could scold, a series of muffled sounds came from behind the hillside, and dozens of wine bottle-like objects that made a terrible sound instantly appeared in the sky, and they fell down quickly to this side.

"Hurry up and lie down...... As soon as the voice of a Gui army officer beside Mo Rongxin fell, the air waves and fragments generated by those black shadows touched the ground and swept the front of the hillside, and Mo Rongxin, who was hiding in the bunker, looked at the Gui officers and soldiers who were blown up and flesh flying, and his whole body was like falling into an ice cellar.

Although the rifles, submachine guns and heavy machine guns equipped by the infantry of the Jiangxi army are still the most important weapons, the explosive weapons such as mortars and grenades have been upgraded, and the use of black powder and flammable and explosive picric acid explosives with insufficient explosive power is no longer a new type of plasticized rubber-based explosives, the explosive power of this explosive is far greater than any previous charge, because considering that the portable mortar is a close-range fire support weapon, the charge is relatively small. However, the killing radius of its production has also reached about 20 meters, and the large-caliber mortar is a medium and long-distance fire support, suppression surname weapon, the charge is relatively much more, and the power produced is almost comparable to the howitzer of this era, and the fragmentation and shock wave killing radius of about 40 to 50 meters can ensure that no enemy is missed. And the power shown by these mortar shells just now directly brought down all the enemies standing within 100 to 300 meters in front of the Gan army's position!

Soon, little by little, the smoke cleared, and not a single person could be seen standing in the mortar bombardment area.

At this moment, not only the Gui army under the hillside, but even the soldiers on the position of the Jiangxi army were shocked by such a terrifying fire attack, and they involuntarily stopped shooting one by one, staring blankly at the corpse pile and crater caused by their comrades not far away.

"Shout together! Drop your weapon! Shoot and don't kill!! Lei Zhenchun, the captain of the Gan Army, who was directing the battle, saw this scene and understood that this was the best time to make a forced landing on the enemy, and immediately commanded the soldiers to shout loudly.

At this time, the remnants of the Gui army have completely lost the will to fight, and at this time from the hillside from the sound of persuasion suddenly gave them the hope of survival, when the first Gui soldier dropped the gun according to the other party's shout and raised his hands, many Gui soldiers also followed and dropped the rifles in their hands, raised their hands, although there were also one or two officers still brandishing pistols to order the soldiers to pick up their weapons and continue to fight, but after a while, bullets flew one by one, accurately shooting them one by one. And the fear and horror made more Gui soldiers involuntarily drop their weapons.

The dejected Mo Rongxin and the officers walked out of the bunker, he looked at the soldiers who were standing beside him, and somehow reached out and took out the pistol on his waist, pointing it at his temple, and the two Guijun officers immediately rushed up like crazy when they saw this, one officer snatched the gun from his hand and threw it on the ground, and the other officer hugged him and cried.

At this time, the figures of several planes in the sky swept by.

"That's not bad."

Yang Shuoming, who was sitting in the back seat of a reconnaissance fighter, saw this scene from the telescope and couldn't help but smile.

"What did you say?"

Tang Jiumei, who was sitting in the pilot's seat of the plane, turned her head, looked at Yang Shuoming curiously, stretched forward with her mouth, and pointed to the double-barreled machine gun in the back seat, "What?" Don't want to go down to a shuttle? ”
