Chapter 162: The sneak attack failed but was plotted
Li Long sighed helplessly and said, "That's all it can be!" Now I just hope that my eldest brother's reinforcements will arrive in time! Li Long had already received a telegram from Jin Zhao, and had learned that Jin Zhao had instigated more than 1,000 officers and men of the advance column to aid Reze, and they had left the team without permission and went north to resist the incident.
Outside Duolun City, Li Shouxin sat in the big tent of the Chinese army and listened to the report of his subordinates, but he was thinking about the purpose of sending him to fight Duolun. He said that Liu Heiqi was stationed in Duolun, supported his troops and respected himself, and repeatedly disobeyed his orders, so he sent Li Shouxin to exterminate this army that did not obey orders. Li Shouxin is not a fool, so he naturally guessed that this is because he doesn't trust Liu Heiqi, but does he completely trust himself? Obviously not, attacking Duolun should be a test for himself! Thinking about this, Li Shou's confidence was a lot easier.
In fact, Li Shouxin is not loyal to Yueben, Li Shouxin and Liu Heiqi are both good all the way, and if you have milk, you are a mother! They are all speculating, gambling! And the troops in their hands are the biggest bargaining chips in their hands, and whoever gives the highest price will take refuge in whom! Therefore, although Li Shouxin followed his own orders and came to Duolun, he never launched an attack. just stationed troops outside the city, constantly creating pressure on Liu Heiqi, he hoped that Liu Heiqi could take the initiative to withdraw from Duolun.
Although Li Shouxin looked down on the bandit army in Liu Heiqi's hands, after all, there were still five or six thousand people in Liu Heiqi's department, and if these outlaws were desperate, it would be a big trouble. Li Shouxin didn't want to sacrifice the lives of his brothers casually, it wasn't that Li Shouxin cherished the lives of his subordinates, just because these troops were his bargaining chips, and if there were no such bargaining chips, whether it was himself or Lao Jiang, he would be thrown aside like garbage.
"Commander!" Seeing that Li Shouxin was always distracted, his subordinates couldn't help but scream.
Li Shouxin suddenly woke up, nodded and said, "En! You go on! ”
"Commander! Liu Heiqi has agreed to withdraw from Duolun tomorrow! The puppet army officer then reported.
"Oh!" Li Shouxin raised his eyebrows, as if he suspected that he had misheard, "What did you say?" Did he agree? So what conditions did he put forward? ”
The puppet army officer replied, "Liu Heiqi said, as long as the commander doesn't pursue them while they retreat!" ”
"It's as simple as that?" Li Shouxin really didn't believe that Liu Heiqi would give up Duolun so easily, his little eyes rolled a few times, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Order the brothers to strengthen their vigilance to prevent Liu Heiqi from sneaking attack!" ”
"The commander is afraid that Liu Heiqi will cheat and take the opportunity to sneak attack us!" The puppet officer asked suspiciously.
"Humph!" Li Shouxin snorted coldly, "Liu Heiqi is cunning and cunning, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that he will let Duolun out so easily!" In the past year, Liu Heiqi has been surrounded and suppressed by [***], running from Shandong to Hebei, and from Hebei to Rehe, Chahar, like a lost dog, was chased everywhere, and now he finally has a place to stay, he will give it to Lao Tzu so easily! ”
"It's still the commander! Liu Heiqi jumped off the clown, just a trick, how could he escape the commander's eyes! The puppet army officer said flatteringly.
"That's it! Go down and give orders! Li Shouxin waved his hand impatiently.
Sure enough, that night, Liu Heiqi led his troops out of Duolun to attack the military camp of Li Shouxin's department, but Li Shouxin's department had already prepared, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing did not cause chaos in the Li army's puppet army.
The fierce battle lasted for two hours, Liu Hei's seven divisions suffered heavy losses, but they never failed to attack Li Shouxin's military camp, and finally had to leave more than 1,000 corpses, and retreated in a hurry.
Liu Heiqi was like a lost dog, running hundreds of miles in one breath before he stopped to collect the rout. As soon as the number of people was counted, Liu Hei gritted his teeth angrily, the troops of nearly 6,000 people lost more than half of them in just one night, and now there are only 3,000 people left.
When the bandit officers saw Liu Heiqi angry, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak. Liu Heiqi looked in the direction of Duolun City in the north and scolded, "Li Shouxin, you are waiting for Lao Tzu, sooner or later, Lao Tzu will kill him back!" Let's go! ”
"Commander, where are we going now?" A bandit officer asked boldly.
"Go to Zhangjiakou! Go to Marshal Feng's allies and let the allies avenge us! Liu Heiqi gritted his teeth and said.
"But Commander? Feng Dashuai's allies are under the banner of resistance! Will they take us in? ”
"Humph!" Liu Heiqi snorted coldly and said, "Lao Tzu still has three thousand guns in his hand now, and he, Feng Yuxiang, is not a fool, he will definitely take us in!" "Liu Heiqi has already inquired clearly, Feng Yuxiang is recruiting troops and horses in Zhangjiakou, he is simply hungry and does not choose food, he will accept anyone, and he will take more than 3,000 people to defect, so he can be a brigade commander! Maybe you can even mix with a division commander.
But what Liu Hei didn't expect was that the troops had just walked out of Wuli, and there were dense gunshots and earth-shaking shouts of killing around again, and Liu Hei's seven bandit troops had just suffered a big defeat, and it was when they were demoralized, when they saw the enemy rushing from all directions, they had no intention of responding to the battle, and immediately became a mess and fled for their lives. Some people ran all night, but they couldn't run anymore, so they simply knelt on the ground and waited to be taken prisoner. Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Heiqi had already fled with a group of cronies to take advantage of the chaos!
By this time, the sun had jumped out of the horizon, sweeping away the darkness of the world. Li Long rode on his horse, looked at the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield in the distance, and nodded with satisfaction. At this time, Chen Zhenpeng rode over on a horse, "Report to the commander!" In this battle, our army killed a total of 567 bandits, captured 1,234 bandits, captured more than 1,100 rifles, 11 light machine guns, and bullets and grenades! ”
Li Long nodded with satisfaction and said, "En! Well done! ”
"!" Chen Zhenpeng scolded and said, "These dogs ran away all night, and a lot of weapons and ammunition were discarded, otherwise we would have seized more!" And it's a pity that Liu Heiqi's bastard ran away! ”
Wang Bozhang next to him smiled and persuaded, "Tuanzao, you are content!" With a thousand people besieging more than 3,000 people, it is quite good to be able to achieve such a result! ”
Li Long nodded in agreement, "We still have too few people, if there are three thousand, no!" Even if it's two thousand! Liu Heiqi wouldn't have escaped so easily! That's right! What about the casualties of the brothers? ”
Wang Bozhang hurriedly reported, "Our army has lost 13 people, and there are fifty or sixty brothers who were wounded, and five of them were seriously injured!" ”
Li Long then ordered, "Send the wounded brothers back to Guyuan for treatment, and as for the sacrificed brothers, let's bury them alive!" And send all their pensions home! In addition, inform the brethren to hurry up and clean up the battlefield and prepare to retreat! ”
"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
