Chapter 017 Counterattack on the jade belt door (5)
Everyone was busy immediately. Soon, each soldier replenished the supplies, and even replaced a thug shell gun and a hundred pistol bullets. These thug shell guns were originally planned to be transported to Feng Guozhang's headquarters to supplement their guards, but now they are all cheaper than Wang Zhenyu. The only regret is that those Maxim heavy machine guns can't be taken away, and they all have to be blown up. Wang Zhenyu knew how valuable this thing was, a total of 2,000 oceans!
Next, the frying warehouse was relatively troublesome. This was a technical job. It was to blow up the arsenal and ensure its own safety. This was not the firecrackers when I was a child. Wang Zhenyu and the others were not professional engineers. They really didn’t know how to do blasting. Wang Zhenyu thought for a long time and asked everyone to first withdraw from the station. Then he and Zhao Dongsheng and the others thought of a solution. They wrapped gunpowder and paper scraps with bed sheets to form a sixty-meter-long line, and then poured the warehouse and cloth with oil. They ran away after the fire was lit later. As for the prisoners of war, Wang Zhenyu insisted that this was a civil war, and did not agree with Xu Yuanquan and others to collectively kill him, but drove them out in the direction of Nan'anzui. These Beiyang soldiers without weapons and no officers naturally scattered. As for the Bo'ai Academy, they were not worried about it.
Although Wang Zhenyu didn't know how powerful the arsenal would be once the explosion was, he was definitely not small. So this time he didn't show off. He decided to stay a mile away, and the glorious task of ignition was handed over to the silly and brave Zhao Dongsheng. Wang Zhenyu did not forget to remind Zhao Dongsheng to run as quickly as possible. Although Zhao Dongsheng was not afraid of death, he was not stupid. After watching the oil-filled bed sheets burning at an astonishing speed, he turned around and ran. Before he could run a hundred meters, the entire warehouse caught fire. Zhao Dongsheng looked back and accelerated and ran out of less than a hundred meters. Boom, the first explosion occurred in the warehouse, followed by a series of explosions. The air rushed straight into the sky, and the flames of the fire reddished half of the night sky, and even Boai Academy eight miles away could see clearly.
When Ma Jizeng heard the gunshot, he should have sent troops to reinforce, but because it was dark and he couldn't figure out the situation, Ma Jizeng hesitated for a while and sent only a small horse soldiers to Yudaimen Station to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, before the horse soldiers came back, the direction of Yudaimen Explosion continued, and the flames soared into the sky made the dark night sky red half, and the rolling smoke was clearly visible. Ma Jizeng didn't understand what was going on, he was a pig. While cursing Zhou Kui'an, he lit up the two battalions with him and ran towards Yudaimen Station.
After a while, Wang Zhenyu received Zhao Dongsheng, who was so angry that he was so angry that he was: "Good, enough to grow!"
Zhao Dongsheng, whose head was confused and his ears were buzzing, did not feel that he had made great contributions. However, he was happy to be able to do things for the manager and lead the adults. He smiled silly, then held his knees with both hands and continued to breathe. The firecracker just now was so satisfying and exciting.
Yang Wangui and the others were completely convinced by Wang Zhenyu. Just as the brothers were celebrating, they ran over and asked Wang Zhenyu: "Guan Wang, what should we do next?"
Wang Zhenyu is not as optimistic as the heartless guys like Yang Wangui. He knows how hateful what he is doing now is for the Qing army. If he is confused and plans to carry out the guerrilla war to the end and continue to stay in Hankou, the Qing army will definitely mobilize the focus to encircle and annihilate it without hesitation.
By then, I will only have a way out for defeat and captured soldiers and skin.
Thinking of cramps and skinning, Wang Zhenyu couldn't help but shudder. This era is so savage. Even killing people is so bloody. It's better to be killed by a weight than to be skinned by cramps and skinned.
Well, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, so it is better to go back early. But now I have lost contact with Hanyang, so how can I go back without a boat? After thinking about it, I should go back to Zongguan. The water is shallow and people can swim over to report the news. And if I am caught by the enemy, I can take everyone over without a boat. At worst, the equipment is not enough. I will take my brothers and I will take my brothers to kill me and I will definitely make up for it.
Wait, after playing such a big move at Yudai Gate, what would the Tartars react? Go back to help, by the way, this is the Tartars' baggage area. They will definitely send troops to rescue them, and they will inevitably come all the way along the railway. What if they ambush themselves? The Tartars in Zongguan will definitely return to help, so they can go back from Zongguan in a swagger. Haha, I am too smart.
The more I thought about it, the more proud he became. Wang Zhenyu quickly came back to his senses and looked at the people around him, and smiled and said, "We walked 100 meters along this railway, and then lie down. Wait for the Tartars to come back to rescue the men. With such a big noise, I don't believe that the Tartars in Boai Academy can still sleep."
Yang Wangui was surprised: "But this place is a plain, and there are no rice fields or anything to cover us up in this season! How can we lie in ambush?"
Wang Zhenyu pointed to the moonless sky: "Does there still be any protection needed on such a dark night? Come with me."
More than 900 people were killed and the other was not injured. Not only did they seize the Yudaimen station, but they also destroyed the Tartars' arsenal. Now everyone regards Wang Zhenyu as a god in their hearts, "We will do whatever Wang Guandai says."
More than 900 people walked less than a hundred meters with torches. Wang Zhenyu, who was holding a telescope, ordered everyone to lie down and ambush on the right side of the railway track and put out all the torches.
In less than twenty minutes, a long dragon with torches appeared on the left side of the railway track. Ma Jizeng rode on the horse and wanted to run to Yudaimen Station immediately. You should know that most of the logistics supplies of the entire Fourth and Sixth Towns were placed there. If there was any loss, not to mention President Feng, even if Premier Yuan knew about it, he would definitely shoot him. But now he is following him, and he can't get fast even if he rides a horse alone. So he can only keep urging the soldiers to accelerate and advance. In this way, it was at night that the soldiers were naturally in a mess. The officers and soldiers soon could not find each other, and the entire team became restless and uneasy.
Looking at the sky-storming fire in the direction of the Yudai Gate, Ma Jizeng, who rushed all the way, suddenly calmed down. He suddenly realized that the enemy situation is unknown now, and he had committed a military taboo to rush over like this. After understanding this, he immediately said to his brother-in-law, the adjutant beside him: "Hurry up, send orders immediately, stop advancing, the entire army rests on the spot, and let the battalions re-arrange again."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a gunshot. His brother-in-law, who was listening to the training beside him, was immediately shot and dropped from the horse, which made Ma Ji Zeng stunned. The shot was fired by Wang Zhenyu himself. They are now ambushing on the railway three or four meters higher than the highway, only twenty meters away from the Beiyang Army. He didn't know that the Beiyang Army would have a co-supported commander running in front. He fired a gun at the closest place of the torch as a signal of attack from the headquarters. He never thought that this shot would almost kill a co-supported commander Ma Ji Zeng was immediately scared and sweated in a cold sweat, and his body fell off the horse without control.
At that time, gunfire sounded loudly, and the civilian army fired at the Beiyang Army. Because it was night, the shooting failed to kill many people, but the results were extremely huge. The two well-trained Beiyang Army in the darkness collapsed like a frightened bird because of fear. Everyone was looking for a safe place. The officers tried hard to scold the soldiers and return to the team quickly, but the denser the fire there, the more bullets flew towards that place. The soldiers were not stupid. They soon understood, discarded the lighting tools in their hands, and then fled the place regardless of everything.
Without the fire, not only Wang Zhenyu and the others lost the target of shooting, but the Beiyang Army also lost the possibility of counterattack. More than 1,500 people from the two battalions completely disintegrated for no reason. Ma Jizeng was so angry that he cursed, but his roar could not change the situation of defeat. His guards set up the coordination commander and walked towards the wasteland without saying a word.
"It's a pity that we don't have machine guns, otherwise the results of the battle would be even greater." Wang Zhenyu thought with regret. He dared not order a pursuit now. On such a dark night, if he really sent out more than 900 people under his command to pursue him, he would definitely not be able to take it back in a while. By dawn tomorrow, the problem will change from how to destroy the Beiyang Army to how to avoid being destroyed by the Beiyang Army.
Wang Zhenyu had a plan in his mind and led everyone to march directly towards Zongguan. For safety reasons, the torches should not be hit too many times. In order to avoid the team being disbanded, Wang Zhenyu specifically asked the soldiers to hold each other with their belts. Although this was a little slower, the effect was pretty good, at least no one fell behind.
After walking for about three hours, Wang Zhenyu asked everyone to stop, leave the official road 200 meters before sleeping peacefully.
The next day, it was soon dawn. The Beiyang Army stationed in Zongguan didn't know what orders it had received, and did not stay a single person and retreated at full speed. Wang Zhenyu and his group were lying less than 200 meters away from the road, sleeping soundly. The people who were not asleep first watched the First Horse Team run by, and then the infantrymen from the second battalions drove over.
Song Haomin and Tao Zhiyue and Zhao Dongsheng were lying in the same place and were surprised to see the scene in front of him: "You guys, how could you know that the Beiyang Army is going to give up the passage for us?"
Tao Zhiyue couldn't answer Song Haomin's question. He had been tired all night and couldn't figure it out now with his already confused mind. He could only respond vaguely: "Our Wang Guandai is indeed a genius of war."
"You still need to say this, and I don't look at who our supervisor is?" Zhao Dongsheng said that and turned over and wanted to sleep again. He was the most tired last night. Usually, he was half tired, which was really scared by the power of the explosion in the arsenal. Fortunately, he ran fast enough.
Dai Yue and Chen Yuxin ran over, "Hurry, hurry, don't sleep anymore, don't sleep anymore, the leader said he was ready to leave..."
In this way, Wang Zhenyu and more than 900 people passed the Zong Pass with great fanfare...
