Chapter 882: The Lu Army Meets the Stars Gathered
"General Bazin, it's useless to say these things now, the most important thing for us now is to reverse the situation first, we must reverse the situation, the current situation is too unfavorable for us!"
Horton on the side said in a deep voice. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Horton is right, now the strength of the two sides is declining, on the Xue Guantun side, there are two divisions of the army, both of which are first-class and first-class strong forces, even if they suffer serious losses, the strength is still about 30,000 people; Now there is a strong army of the Lu army, this force, plus the strength of the attack on Tianjin, almost together, there are 20,000 people, the most important thing is that the combat power of this force is only stronger than the Lu army of Xue Guantun, just one day, the two French brigades were beaten down, if it were not for the help of the British army, I am afraid that the end will be even more miserable!
There are now 50,000 Lu troops gathered around Tianjin, needless to say, that iron-blooded general Guo Ye has already rushed to the Gyeonggi area, and the whole situation is under his control!
On the other hand, the Four-Nation Coalition has suffered heavy blows one after another, with serious losses in troops, a decline in morale, and a complete loss of the original initiative!
Bazin's face was gloomy and he replied: "Now that we have lost the initiative, it is impossible to turn the situation back!" The order was given to all the departments to retreat towards Tianjin City, and the top priority was to hold Tianjin City and wait for Nanyang reinforcements, as long as Nanyang reinforcements arrived, we would have nothing to fear! ”
Bazin's order was conveyed, and the coalition forces began to retreat in the direction of Tianjin City, and in less than two days, tens of thousands of coalition troops all entered the hinterland of Jinghai County, which was only dozens of miles away from Tianjin City, and the three French brigades that were badly beaten retreated all the way to Tianjin, and came to Tianjin Wei to protect the safety of Tianjin.
After arriving at Tianjinwei, Bazin once again sent men to contact Dundas, asking Dundas to ask for help from Nanyang.
"What? The Four-Nation Coalition was defeated by the Lu Army! ”
Dundas, who got the news, was full of shock, even if he didn't count the Japanese army, there were more than 80,000 people in the Western coalition army, even if the Lu army was strong, how many people could there be in the three divisions, and only 60,000 people died, and these 60,000 people were still distributed in Zhili, Shandong and even Shanxi, and the long distance was that it was difficult for them to fight together, with the strong strength of the coalition army, they could completely break through each of them, and finally encircle and annihilate the Lu army, I didn't expect that it would end up with such consequences!
Dundas couldn't sit still and roared, "What are Bazin and Houghton eating?" It's all rice buckets! With such a strong force, they are not even the opponents of the Lu army, and they still have to ask for help from the Nanyang side? This is a disgrace to Europe, a disgrace to the whole of Europe! ”
Mozak, the commander of the French Navy on the side, also had a blue face, 30,000 French troops, they can't even deal with the Lu army, not to mention that there are 30,000 British troops and 20,000 Spanish troops as helpers? This Bazin and Houghton are really dog shit!
However, no matter what, defeat is defeat, and it didn't make Lu Jun not see him, but let Lu Jun bite hard, and it hurt to the bone marrow!
"Immediately send warships to the Malay Peninsula, the Philippines and Vietnam and Laos for help, ask the bases of the three countries to send troops for support, and there must be sufficient weapons and ammunition, quickly, within five days, we must arrive in Tianjinwei!"
Dundas shouted.
Bazin Dundas and others sent personnel to Nanyang for help, and Guo Ye's Lu army was also in the process of intensive mobilization!
The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd divisions finally came together, and all the troops advanced to the area of Qingxian and Renqiu, and the three divisions and ten brigades, one by one, were ready to launch a final attack on the coalition forces in Tianjin.
"Big brother!"
"Big brother!"
Gao Qi and Yan Chunyu shouted at Guo Ye from afar, their bodies had already rushed over quickly, and the two of them gave Guo Ye a bear hug fiercely, and Yan Chunyu even punched Guo Ye fiercely!
"Okay, you two did a good job, good!"
Guo Ye rarely praised the two of them a few words, Gao Qi and Yan Chunyu's eyebrows danced, their spirits were flying, and they were praised by the boss, which is commendable!
"Gao Qi, it's been very hard to support these days, right?"
Guo Ye said with a smile.
Gao Qi grinned and replied: "It's okay, ******, the artillery fire of these foreign devils is very fierce, it is the hardest battle I have fought since I followed you, if it is not supported by our solid offensive, it is really a bit hanging......"
Yan Chunyu said with a smile: "Of course it's hanging, if it weren't for Lao Tzu coming quickly, your first division might have disappeared!" ”
"Fart!"
Gao Qi shouted, "Lao Tzu let them attack for seven days and seven nights, and the first division will still be as stable as Mount Tai!" It's just a bunch of miscellaneous pieces, and Lao Tzu hasn't put it in his eyes yet! ”
Zuo Guigui on the side smiled and said: "Okay, you two don't brag, England and France are not easy to mess with, Ming Shuai has a hard time with them, two brigades against two brigades, the result is only to defeat the opponent, and still not to annihilate the opponent......"
Yan Chunyu pursed his lips and said: "Guanting, you will grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige, we won't be able to, won't their French army be defeated in the same way?" If you break it, it fails, and no matter how much you say, it's! Again, they're no match! ”
Zuo Guigui smiled, and then said to Guo Ye: "Ming Shuai, what should we do next?" ”
Guo Ye replied lightly: "Gao Qi, Chunyu, we are just the first step of victory, and there are still some in the back, there is no doubt that the Qing court has a deal with the foreigners, and they want to take over the hands of the foreigners to get rid of us, and the foreigners will never allow a complete defeat, because they fail, and the two contracts will eventually become waste paper, and they will lose money in this operation!" Next, they will definitely mobilize troops from the South Seas, hehe, we have to be ready! ”
"The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, they increase their troops, we have nothing to fear, they have more than us Chinese? If they increase their troops, then we will recruit them! This is in China! How many people and how many people! ”
Gao Qi shouted.
Guo Ye smiled: "Yes, that's it, we can have as many people as we want!" From now on, the fourth division of the Lu army, Yunlu, will be put into the fourth division, Hao Nan will be the commander of the fourth division, Yunlu will be the chief of staff, and a capable team will be sent to Baoding to recruit troops, and in the shortest possible time, recruit 10,000 new soldiers to go to Tianjin to participate in the war! ”
10,000 troops?
Yan Chunyu asked, "Big brother, is it a little little?" If reinforcements are sent from the Nanyang side, there will be many ......."
"Hehe, do you think they can still send reinforcements in Nanyang? Now Nanyang is hard to protect itself! ”
