The sudden blow, especially the tragic situation of the Japanese, almost shook the army of the revolutionary party, they were not regular troops in the first place, but armed farmers with guns, who were able to participate in military training 10 times a year, which was already too much, and on the battlefield, they only knew to charge and attack according to the orders of the officers, and most of the soldiers were just pretending, and this weakness was exposed in the real war, and it was constantly magnified.

The location of Shengquan Square is exactly in the center of several battlefields preset by the Northwest Army, almost within the distance that can be seen by the naked eye, and there are at least 2 divisions of revolutionary parties around, and they saw with their own eyes that almost most of the Japanese army was wiped out, and it was only a few minutes.

The sub-effort and lethality brought by the heavy firepower rose to the extreme in an instant, and the surrounding area was still facing the sound of artillery, and the last willpower of the revolutionary army's army was worn out, like dominoes, falling one after another, and some soldiers who could not bear it chose to raise their weapons and shouted loudly in surrender.

It stands to reason that such soldiers, when the battle is fierce, almost any commander will choose, directly killed, their behavior has affected the stability of the entire army, but unfortunately the previous scene was too terrible, tens of thousands of people concentrated in a vacant land of dozens of acres, covered by concentrated artillery fire, shells as if they were machine guns out, do not want money to pour, such a shocking feeling, shocked everyone's heart, when the first surrender, the surrender of the mood spread to everyone around, This is true even for some battalion commanders, officers like company commanders.

Thus. The importance of the basic system is different from that of Beiyang and Northwest. The army of the revolutionary party is very arbitrary. Sometimes, when a division commander takes office, he will bring a series of subordinates who occupy positions in the army, and in their eyes, the officers are just tools for seeking interests and grasping power, and as for the combat effectiveness of the army, it goes without saying. A little more advanced. Division commanders and brigade commanders may have gone to military schools for a period of time, but below, the dwarf picks generals and can have a certain command ability, which is good, they can't deal with complex scenes at all.

The stronger Japanese are all in ashes, not to mention themselves, some officers. The frightened Northwest Army came over, took the initiative to hold the military flag, and surrendered with a large group of people, and the officers were like this. Not to mention the soldiers at the bottom, who came out one after another, dropping their weapons. The chain reaction began.

Zhao Ruiying didn't expect this to be like this at all, as if it was a circle of momentum. Hit directly on the air, this feeling of being empty. directly made him uncomfortable, said a good battle, said a good offensive and defensive battle, he worked hard to prepare so many plans, but he didn't even implement a single one, and the whimsical city scene made most of the enemy drill into the encirclement, and then just the artillery played a role, which played a role in annihilation.

Zhao Ruiying is a mature officer, and his past experience told him that he can't be excited at this time, and if he can reduce a little casualties, he will reduce it a little, no matter how he says that he is a compatriot, he chose the Japanese direction before to attack first, and this is for this.

The rest of the troops were ordered to continue attacking the other revolutionaries who were still resisting, and the few who had already discovered the secret of the real scene of the city, and walked to the Japanese army with less than 3,000 people in a radius of about 3 square kilometers, and the rest were taken prisoner.

Bold and careful, in fact, before waiting for the Northwest to make a move, the revolutionary party had already begun to sort out its weapons, for fear that the Northwest Army would not see the same, so they piled up their weapons and equipment in another pile, and when they put away their weapons, they raised their hands and stood beside them, looking at the sky in fear, for fear that the shells would fall on their heads again.

Fortunately, it seems that their prayers have succeeded, and in the sky, there is no more unique screaming sound of artillery, or rather, there is this sound, and the focus is not in their direction, which makes most people sigh at the previous choice, fortunately, no matter how slow it is, maybe, a small life will not be guaranteed.

The high-ranking officers of the revolutionary party who were besieged by the chaotic soldiers, some officers who had military literacy and knew that such a thing was wrong, there was no way at this moment, because a huge part of the soldiers had surrendered, and even laid down their arms, and they were surrounded by some henchmen, but there were not many of them, that is, one or two companies, such troops, perhaps when they had just laid down their arms, or when they had not yet laid down their arms, with the help of their personal influence and the might of the officers, to integrate the entire army, and now, too late, his guards in addition to killing, There is nothing else that can be done, there is not enough army, how can you rush out of this city, it is better to surrender here.

Just when the revolutionary army in the two squares laid down their arms one after another, the roar of the cannons sounded again, and those officers who were still regretting and laying down their arms just now, the mood at this moment, in addition to luck, was still lucky, not far from them, that was where the 6th Division was located, which belonged to the First Army, the ace unit of the Revolutionary Party, the First Army, which had a large proportion of cadets and the new army in the past, had a little better control than the two divisions here, some of them laid down their arms, but the other part, But they did not give up resistance, and the two sides even had a dispute.

At the end of the dispute, the sound of the cannon sounded again, almost like an eye, and accurately hit the position of the headquarters of the 6th Division, including the division commander, the vast majority of the Guards Regiment became the soul of the dead under the blow of the artillery, and the part that laid down its arms and surrendered, the loss was minimal.

At this point, the top of the two divisions on this side have let go of the extravagant hope of what is still left in their hearts, the opponent not only has a large number of artillery, but also knows the situation here well, although the sky is shining, the visibility is greatly improved, but there is still no trace of the enemy in all directions, the battle has become like this, the opponent's strength is obviously above them, defeat is inevitable, at least life is saved.

After the senior officers completely put down their extravagant hopes and took the initiative to lay down their weapons, this place was calm, and some senior officers who were still apprehensive carefully observed the surroundings, trying to find the enemy from the surrounding environment, but they did not find anything.

The Northwest Army, even if it was a second-line squad, was able to go to the battlefield after several months of formal military training. Not to mention such a complex environment as a city, it is simply too easy to hide, even if it is on the grassland with an unobstructed view, the northwest can be quickly hidden.

For the revolutionaries, this short period of time was the calmest time, no shells fell, no weapons were laid down, they could only wait patiently, waiting for the Northwest Army to receive it.

After waiting for more than 10 minutes or so, there was a sudden movement of figures in the front, and the revolutionary party's initiative to surrender accelerated the pace of receiving the Northwest Army, and only two battalions of troops went over to receive it, some of them guarding their weapons, and the other part was monitoring the prisoners, and the number of troops controlled by the revolutionary party began to decrease sharply.

Just in the vicinity of Shengquan Square, almost 50,000 prisoners were accepted, plus the Japanese troops killed and the troops who continued to resist, equal to the 90,000 people who came up from this side, and 60,000 were removed, and the next thing was to continue to expand the results of the war.

From 30,000 to 90,000, a three-fold difference, to now, the strength of the two sides is about the same, in this case, Zhao Ruiying is more unrestrained, it is already a revolutionary party that is frightened, and its resistance ability is quite weak, only a slightly stronger attack, and the death of some people is a large-scale surrender, and the war situation is one-sided.

Later, the prisoners were almost captured, and in addition to less than 7,000 casualties of the revolutionary party, the remaining 70,000 soldiers became prisoners.

However, at about 9 o'clock, the gunfire rang out again, in the battle of Wuxi, the most fierce and real battle, or the brigade headquarters of the Ninth Brigade, in the process of assembly, suffered from the concentrated bombardment of heavy artillery, the entire brigade was lost under the premise, the remaining less than two brigades and an almost complete brigade headquarters, or after discovering the secret of the city set, continued to go deep into the hinterland of Wuxi.

In just over one hour, from the periphery, gradually inward, into the market close to the central city, was blocked by the Northwest Army. The encounter between the two sides, due to the suddenness of the comparison, the surrounding large-caliber artillery just couldn't hit this, and it could only be a head-on confrontation.

The strength of the Wuxi Division is not something that the 9th Brigade can compete, with 50 mm or less anti-aircraft guns, 50 to 60 mm mortars, and densely arranged light and heavy machine guns.

This is the residential area of Wuxi cotton mill, more than 200 acres of area, a total of more than 30 six-story buildings, because the construction age is relatively new, they all use reinforced concrete structure, relatively solid, as for the residents inside, long before the arrival of the revolutionary party army, has been evacuated, the Japanese army began to enter the community, smashed open some doors, with the help of solid buildings, continue to resist.

The war has been fought for more than 1 hour until now, and most of the brigade and regiment have also seen what they have encountered, from officers to soldiers, they are very clear, in the open field, encountered the Northwest Army is artillery fire, it is almost impossible to survive, they chose these houses, no matter how they are reinforced concrete structures, can withstand for a while.

The Japanese made the most correct choice, the area they chose was also the best around, under the premise of a limited number of machine guns blocking the door, and a large number of infantry firepower, they rushed in, commanded the lost troops, and the battlefield situation stopped again, and the gunfire gradually thinned out.
