Chapter 225: Bandits are arrogant
"If I don't crush your bones and scatter ashes, Lao Tzu will not give up."
A loud roar suppressed the sound of ticking water outside, and scared the son who was sleeping in the back room into tears.
The few women sitting at the table opened their mouths wide one by one, not to mention Aixinjue Luo Ruojing, it was Wu Xiaoyan with Liu Junyuan, and Li Maolian had not seen it.
After a while, Wu Xiaoyan was awakened by the sound of the child inside, and stood up in a panic to report that her youngest son had started breastfeeding.
Maybe he found that he was overdone, smiled slightly, and made a smile that was more ugly than crying: "No matter what happens to you, it scares you, you can continue to eat, don't wait for me." After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Zhong Lin, who was standing on the side: "Follow me." ”
Pushing open the door of the study, Liu Jun walked straight in, walked in a few steps to the pitch-black desk, and spread out the telegram in a few clicks. Look on the map to look for.
The telegram that Zhong Lin handed out just now was an urgent telegram from Feng Guozhang, and the content of the telegram was to relay Zhang Zuolin's that the transport brigade was attacked by bandits, all the grain was robbed, and the soldiers and civilians in charge of escorting the transport were collectively killed and thrown into the wilderness.
After careful deliberation at that time, Zhang Zuolin knew that these teams transporting grain must have been robbed by the bearded bald eyes entrenched in the mountains.
Bald eye because there is only one eye, in addition to a bald head, so the people around him also call him bald eye, this beard, in the Suihua area, is notorious, notorious, and extremely powerful, at least 3,000 people. Once Yiketanga also sent troops to encircle and suppress, but this guy always took advantage of the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain, coupled with the poor equipment of the Qing army, and the encirclement and suppression failed.
After Heilongjiang left the imperial court to join Liu Jun, at that time, Iktanga once wanted to talk about Heilongjiang's beard problem, just because he was surprised by the front. I forgot about it. After Zhang Zuolin entered Suihua, he didn't pay attention because he didn't disturb his bald eyes.
With a snap, Liu Jun smashed his fist on the mountain where Bald Eye lived.
Gritting his teeth, Liu Jun's eyes were full of anger.
Liu Jun has always known about the problem of banditry in the Northeast, just because there are still some things that have not been dealt with. These things have been put on hold for the time being.
He doesn't hate bandits, bandits are also people, and he just went back to be a bandit because he had no livelihood, and he grabbed some food, and there was nothing, after all, he had to eat. The problem is that after robbing the grain and killing all the people, more than 1,000 people died innocently, which angered Liu Jun, Liu Jun's greatest wish was to protect the people, and now such a thing happened.
"You forced Lao Tzu to do it."
If you want to suffer, the Northeast bandits are afraid that they will be crushed this time. Zhong Lin saw Liu Jun's gloomy and distorted face, and kept muttering in his heart.
"Tell Feng Guozhang to mobilize heavy troops, even if it is a division, to exterminate this bald eye for me. , I don't want a single mouth, kill them all. After Liu Jun finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the study. Walk out alone.
Suihua City, originally only one regiment of Zhang Zuolin was stationed here, but in the past few days, the people of Suihua City have found out. The garrison of Suihua City has increased, at least more than 6,000 people, and the careful people have also found that the barracks, which originally did not have many artillery, are now placed in at least dozens of them.
Suihua Regiment Headquarters, the commander of the 13th Brigade, Wang Shizhen, who was already thirty-three years old, was crawling on the ground at this time, not observing the map.
He was ordered by Feng Guozhang to lead the 13th Brigade to encircle and suppress the bald eye.
After taking a closer look, Wang Shizhen found that the hill where Bald Eye was stationed was easy to defend and difficult to attack, with the steepest walls on both sides and only a narrow road, which was not conducive to the deployment of large troops. And, according to reconnaissance, on the mountainside, Bald Eye also built an earthen wall. There are also several earthen cannons on it.
Zhang Zuolin saw Wang Shizhen standing there pondering. stepped forward and proposed: "Brigade seat, my subordinates think that we can concentrate artillery fire, bombard it fiercely, and then take advantage of Beard's unstable foothold to forcibly attack, after all, Beard does not know our strength, and will inevitably relax." ”
Wang Shizhen looked at Zhang Zuolin and nodded slightly, he also thought so just now.
Beard dared to attack the team transporting military rations this time, that is, he did not take himself seriously, and he did not know the strength of the Lushun army. If this is the case, it is better to take advantage of his paralysis, mobilize heavy troops, bombard fiercely, and then occupy them one by one.
The cold wind of the night carries snowflakes flying all over the sky, and there are no torches, and the white snow is the light to guide the way. Most of the residents of Suihua City are already asleep. Only a small number of people nested on the kang and chatted with their families and ate melon seeds.
The slight tremor, as well as the movement of the horses, made the Wang Si family, who had not yet slept feel frightened and panicked, who would make such a big movement in the middle of the night. Wang Si was bold, got up and opened the door, and was immediately stunned, he saw a group of Lushun troops neatly dressed in white cloaks, driving out of the city, from time to time, a few horses pulled up green artillery.
"Dad, what are you doing?" A woman, dressed like a bucket, saw the child open the door and stood there motionless. Got up and walked over.
"Mom" The woman had never seen such a big formation, and she exclaimed.
snapped, a big hand covered the mother-in-law's mouth at once: "You don't want to die, I feel like the door is closed after speaking." ”
Wang Si is a smart man. Look at the direction they go out is the West Gate, and the West Gate is thirty kilometers away from the Yaozi Mountain. Where is the territory of the bald eye. Are they there to suppress bandits? Even if you suppress the bandits, you don't need to be so big, the black pressure is thousands of people. Wang Si blew out the lamp in confusion. Lie down carefully on the bed.
"Brigade, you see, if we want to use the power of artillery and cover Yaozi Mountain, then we need to push the artillery to the hill opposite. in order to fully exert firepower. "Zhang Zuolin has already reconnoitred the terrain here, and the troops have arrived here, so he will explain the surrounding situation and suggestions.
Wang Shizhen nodded slightly, this Zhang Zuolin is his most proud leader. He raised his eyes and saw that the mountain was not high, and it was relatively gentle, and it was not a problem to push the artillery, but the problem was how to push it on a cold day, and the road was slippery.
Wang Shizhen participated in the Pyongyang Campaign with Liu Jun, when he was still an artillery commander. He remembered that Liu Jun's approach at that time was to remove the artillery and transport it for loading and unloading.
"Order, immediately dismantle all the artillery, go up the hill to load and unload, the infantry immediately help, wait for the attack position after everything is done, and wait for the battle order."
An hour later, more than 20 artillery pieces had been transported to the mountain with the help of artillery and infantry, and the artillery was placed in a row against Yaozi Mountain. Wait for the order to attack.
The infantry, on the other hand, under the cover of white cloaks, were moving as far forward as possible under the cover of snow. Ambush up.
In front of artillery positions. Wang Shizhen put down the binoculars, and only sporadic lights could be seen on the mountain at this time. And the rest, but not a single figure can be seen.
"Order, the troops attack at five o'clock." Dawn is the time when people are most sleepy.
On the kiln mountain, a big bald head, a little slanted scar on his face, and that fierce and vicious single eye. At this time, he was laughing, and on either side of him, there were two women who had been robbed.
The hall was full of banquets, and he was happy, this time he grabbed so many things at once, at least the winter could be passed.
He was excited, but a little white face in a long shirt next to him was full of worry, this little white face was a bald-eyed master.
When he knew that the bald eye had robbed the Lushun army, he was immediately frightened. Weakness in the legs.
The Yingkou massacre, the Liaoyang massacre, the land reform massacre, and the recently rumored foreign massacre, that one is not related to the Lushun army, and that one is not captured by the Lushun army.
Although the little white face is white, he is also a sinister and cunning person, but this time, he is really cowardly. He knew that the Lushun Army would never let go of here, and maybe soon, the Lushun Army of the brigade would come to retaliate. As far as he heard. This kiln mountain, I'm afraid that there will be no chickens and dogs left at that time.
He made a suggestion to withdraw, but the bald eye looked down on the Lushun army, thinking that it was no different from the army of the Qing Dynasty, and he still ate and drank every day.
The persuasion was ineffective, the little white face figured it out, he didn't want to wait here to die, he would leave tomorrow, leave this place, and not be buried with the bald eyes.
Raised his eyes and looked outside the cave, dawn, it was not far away.
