Red Alert 1895: Chapter 618 Huayong Camp Part 1

When Tianjin's Taiwanese army was transferred to two armies, Tianjin's defense pressure immediately fell on Feng Wentian, the commander of the temporary third army. Feng Wentian was originally the deputy chief of the general staff. It is a test for him to directly take charge of an army here. ∮, if he can pass this test, then it is inevitable for him to become a military commander in the future. If he can't be the commander of the army well, then his future will probably come to an end. He may be transferred back to the General Staff Headquarters to serve as the department head of a second-level department, which would be demotion instead. In addition, it is very difficult for the department chiefs of the second-level departments to be promoted, because according to the promotion path that Wang Guorui has drawn up for everyone, generally speaking, the chief of staff will not be selected from within the staff department, and the deputy chief of staff has almost no support. Possibly, it is necessary to serve as the commander of a military region before being able to find the opportunity to come back as the chief of staff. This is the same as the principle of the chief of staff of the navy. The chief of staff of the navy is also selected by the commanders of the major fleets, and they will not be easily corrected from the deputy position.

This, if Feng Wentian wants to continue to be promoted, it is inevitable that he must become the commander of the army well, and then he can seek the position of commander of a military region, and then he is qualified to compete for higher-level positions, such as the chief of the general staff or the major military departments The top departments in it, especially those department heads who can enter the Military Commission. Currently in Taiwan, only the top leaders of the General Staff and the General Political Department, as well as the Chief of Staff of the Navy can join the Military Commission, and the chairman of the Military Commission is Wang Guorui, and the director of the General Political Department is his wife Zheng Hong, so we can discuss any military affairs with them. Wang Guorui himself can control most of the forces in the Military Commission, and he can also influence Hu Wei. And the new chief of staff of the navy, Qiu Baoren, didn't even dare to fart after Wang Guorui took out Ye Zugui to make an example of others.

But Wang Guorui also promised that once he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the number of military committee members would be expanded for sure. At that time, the military committee will expand the number of people from the current four to ten. If he could have the opportunity to enter the military committee, it would mean entering the highest organ of the army, so Feng Wentian was also very excited. Even if it's just one spot. But that also represents the power of one vote, and many people have competed for this power of one vote for a long time, and it is not so easy to obtain.

"Everyone has guarded the line of defense for me. Although the temporary first army and the second temporary army are gone. But then we will raise the main beam for the temporary third army, so that we can get the support of Mr. Wang." Trust. These foreign devils, we absolutely cannot let them attack us." Feng Wentian shouted.

However, in the front position of the provisional third army, there is an army wearing a uniform that the Taiwan army has never seen before. They came from afar with banners.

"Company commander, what kind of flag are they holding?" a soldier immediately asked.

"What? They actually held up the words 'We are also Chinese'." The company commander said.

"They came from the foreign army, what should we do?" asked the soldier.

The company commander immediately took it for granted: "Since they are holding the flag that they are also Chinese, and they are all Chinese, then they should want to surrender. If so, then we all welcome them! After all, they are Our compatriots can be regarded as welcoming our compatriots."

"General, we are all Chinese too! General, we are all Chinese too!" the group of yellow people shouted in Chinese.

"Who are you? Let you take the lead!" The company commander shouted.

"Okay!"

The leader of the Chinese in strange military uniforms came over immediately, and the company commander was totally unprepared. Because he thought these people came here to surrender, or some ordinary people were forcibly captured by foreigners and became soldiers. And Wang Guorui also said before that he must be more polite to the Chinese on the mainland, or those old troops such as the Green Battalion, the New Army, and the Eight Banners, and not directly discriminate against them. Their weak strength is not entirely their responsibility. This is the reason for the entire country's social system, military system and military thinking, and no one person can be blamed alone. So they were all willing to come here, so Wang Guorui also had to discriminate against them. And the troops below are more at ease with those Chinese troops, because they simply cannot have such a strong combat effectiveness.

The bloodiness of the Lvying Eight Banners has long been exhausted. Therefore, Wang Guorui's Taiwanese army is not afraid of these troops at all, and they all choose to trust these people. He thought these people were the army of the mainland.

"General, we are from the Huayong Camp!" said the man in charge.

"From the Huayong camp?" The company commander obviously had never heard of this unit, and he couldn't recall any army in the mainland that was the Huayong camp.

"Crack!"

With two gunshots. The company commander suddenly felt that his chest had been hit like a heavy hammer, and then blood burst out of his chest. The man on the other side, who claimed to be Hua Yongying, was holding a pistol in his hand, and smoke was still coming from the muzzle.

"Brothers, the British have treated us well. Now let's rush forward. Repay the British!" the leading officer of the Huayong Battalion immediately shouted.

"Come on!"

Hundreds of soldiers from the Huayong Battalion immediately rushed to the guard position of the company, and the company commander who guarded the position was just killed by the Huayong Battalion. This position was breached.

"Brothers, come with me!"

Hundreds of Huayong Battalion rushed into the trenches one after another, and then fought hand-to-hand with the Taiwan army.

"Damn, who are they?" A soldier immediately cursed.

The company commander of this company was also killed by a sneak attack just now, and this company suddenly lost its commander, and they all began to fight on their own. In addition, the enemies of the Huayong Camp suddenly rushed into the trenches. They didn't have much experience in this trench, and they didn't have much experience in hand-to-hand combat. This made them very weak.

"Hua Yongying, charge for me!" Suddenly a foreigner with a big nose started to shout, and then ordered the Chinese soldiers under him to start charging.

"Come on!"

More than a thousand people in special military uniforms, with braids on the back of their heads, rushed into the company's defense line. And that gap has been opened, and those troops were all entangled in hand-to-hand combat with cold weapons by the advance team of the Huayong Battalion of hundreds of people, and there was no way to defend them.

Hesitation was transferred to two armies, so the pressure on the defense line of the remaining temporary third army suddenly doubled. The reason for this result is that apart from the fact that the people from the Huayong Camp used their so-called "Chinese" identities to deceive the company commander's trust, there is another important reason, that is, these soldiers did not respond in time. Adapt to a wider defensive line. And this line of defense inevitably has certain loopholes, coupled with the fact that the Qing army used cold weapons to fight close to the body, which made it impossible for soldiers who were accustomed to long-distance combat with firearms.

"Dangdangdangdang..."

When a company of the Taiwan Army lost the command of the company commander, the deputy company commander took over the command. However, the soldiers of the Huayong Battalion also chose to fight with cold weapons, which happened to hit the weakness of the Taiwan army, which made them all lose their local advantages immediately.

"Retreat, blow up the communication trenches! Blow up all the communication trenches, and prevent them from breaking through to the rear!" the deputy company commander shouted.

Soon, the army of that company immediately began to retreat, but immediately after they retreated, they detonated the explosives next to the communication trench, which cut off the communication trench. And in this way, the soldiers of the Huayong Battalion were unable to continue to break through.

"Damn it, the Huayong Camp didn't break through in time!" Ball said angrily.

The British Colonel Bauer thought he could break through these positions in time. They used the characteristics of the Chinese to cheat a sneak attack opportunity, so that they could also take the opportunity to break through. But when this company retreated, it actually blew up the traffic trench, which prevented them from breaking through quickly.

At the army headquarters, Feng Wentian immediately said angrily: "Damn it, immediately order the artillery to block the retreat of these Huayong battalion troops, and then mobilize large troops to surround them. His grandma used such despicable and shameless means!" It is really unreasonable to attack, and there is a large group of traitors. I will definitely not let them go easily this time."

"Boom boom boom boom..."

The artillery immediately began to secretly bomb the rear of the original positions, completely blocking the retreating positions of the Huayong Battalion.

"Colonel Bauer~www.mtlnovel.com~ Our rear has been blocked by enemy artillery!" A translator said.

And Ball immediately said angrily: "These Chinese really think highly of us? They actually sent an artillery regiment to block our retreat."

"Immediately order the nearby troops to point their guns at them, and then prepare to encircle them!" Feng Wentian shouted.

"The artillery regiment directly under the command army is ready to blow up the lost position just now into scorched earth. No matter how much I pay this time, I will make them, the traitors, pay the price!" Feng Wentian said angrily.

"Yes!" shouted the communications officer next to him.

And Feng Wentian said viciously: "Hua Yongying, these traitors. We hate the traitors the most. Mr. Wang also said that the traitors are the most hateful. Sometimes, they are even more hateful than the invaders. If Chinese history If there were not so many traitors, how could there be so many foreign invasions? If there were no traitors, how could the Manchu Qing rule the Central Plains? Therefore, the traitors are actually the most abominable guy, the unforgivable sinner.” (To be continued.)
