Red Alert 1895: Chapter 620 Huayong Camp Part 2
"Commander Feng, Lord Wang ordered that these Huayong camps must be completely wiped out, and tell those traitors that being a traitor will not end well!" Feng Wentian's adjutant said.
Feng Wentian saw this telegram, and immediately shouted: "Immediately mobilize a division of troops to besiege them, and ask the First Heavy Artillery Brigade to provide profit-making cooperation and support, and ask Lord Wang to hand over the command of the First Heavy Artillery Brigade to me."
"Commander Feng, the Huayong Battalion is just a regiment of troops. Do we need to dispatch a brigade of heavy artillery like this? This is an overkill!" the adjutant asked.
But Feng Wentian said viciously: "Today, I am going to kill chickens with a sledgehammer, otherwise how can I let them see the horror?"
Soon, through exchanges, Feng Wentian successfully obtained the command of the First Heavy Artillery Brigade granted by Wang Guorui, and Wang Guorui also gave him a privilege, that is, there was no restriction on how Feng Wentian could use this heavy artillery brigade, and the ammunition cost Wang Guorui was also very generous and directly did not restrict his use of indicators. You must know that the shells of the heavy artillery brigade are expensive on weekdays, even for training, there must be certain indicators, and they cannot be used casually. But this time Wang Guorui didn't give them any restrictions. Obviously, Wang Guorui had made up his mind. If the bones of the traitors from the Huayong Camp were to be wiped out, they must be bombarded with heavy artillery from the Heavy Artillery Brigade to turn them into scum.
This time the fight against Huayong Camp is to let those who want to be traitors see that being a traitor is not so easy, and I'm afraid there will be no bones left by then! "5,...
"Order the Artillery Regiment to block the retreat route of the Huayong Battalion without saving shells. Also, order to surround all Huayong Battalions on three sides to prevent them from breaking out. Next, the First Heavy Artillery Brigade will wait for my order at any time and fight hard! "Feng Wentian ordered.
On the front line, the Huayong Battalion was in a difficult place. They just failed to break through in time. Stopped by that lucky deputy company commander. When the deputy company commander found that the position could not be defended, he immediately retreated in time and blew up the traffic trench, preventing the Huayong battalion from continuing to break through further. However, the losses of that company were also huge, and the commander of that company was killed. And this Huayong battalion seized the opportunity and successfully fought hand-to-hand. The Taiwanese army is not good at hand-to-hand combat. On the contrary, the Huayong Camp was born in the Green Camp or other troops in the Qing Dynasty, and hand-to-hand combat has become commonplace. Under this kind of combat mode that is not good at, the infantry company of more than 130 people in Taiwan lost a total of more than 80 people, and only more than 50 people were left. He was also killed by a surprise attack, and two of the platoon leaders also died. This can be said to be a big loss. It set a record for the highest loss of a single infantry company in a battle since the establishment of Taiwan's army. And this record is not a glorious record. More than 80 people were lost in one battle, which is not a small record. If the deputy company commander hesitated for a moment, the entire infantry company might be wiped out, which would be the most embarrassing thing. At that time, the infantry company's establishment would be abolished.
However, due to failure to break through in time. These Huayong camps are **** here. Breaking through further, they couldn't do it. But retreat. Then they can't do it either. Because an entire artillery regiment was bombarding their retreat with relentless shells, they could not retreat at all.
And the surrounding infantry regiments also immediately surrounded them, and they were completely surrounded.
"Captain Bauer, we can't retreat!" an interpreter said immediately.
The handsome Colonel Bauer immediately said angrily: "What are these Chinese people thinking? For us. An artillery regiment was dispatched to visit and block our retreat. We can't advance or retreat. We don't have Impossible to attack!"
"Damn it, didn't the Japanese say it? They will come to support us? He said that as long as our Huayong battalion breaks through their position, will they come to support us? But why haven't we even seen the Japanese? If I I can go back. I must clean up these Japanese!" Ball said angrily.
But Bauer didn't know that he had been sold by a certain "chief of staff" in Japan. Akashi Motojiro prevented the Japanese from sending troops to support in time, so now the Huayong Battalion is already a lone army, and it has long been tantamount to being sacrificed at any time. And the British don't feel sorry for the sacrifice of Huayongying, and they don't feel sorry for letting the Chinese fight the Chinese anyway.
"Colonel Power, what should we do? We might as well surrender!" said the interpreter.
"Surrender?" Bauer was suddenly moved.
The people from the Huayong camp have no morals about surrendering. They are all a group of people who live for money, they will not have any absolute loyalty, they are also a group of traitors, but they just want to make a living. But now that they are facing the test of life and death, they all choose to surrender again, so that they can get a stable life.
And this idea immediately made Bauer tempted. As a British, they are very unscrupulous on the battlefield. Western countries even set so-called "surrender conditions" for soldiers, such as being surrounded, running out of ammunition, etc. Under certain circumstances, surrender is allowed. With the virtue of Westerners, they are not ashamed to surrender, so they have less integrity than the Chinese to surrender when necessary. Westerners regard war as an obligation. As long as they try their best and the enemy is too strong, even surrendering is not unforgivable.
So Bauer is now surrounded by a division's troops in front, and blocked by an artillery regiment with generous ammunition in the rear, so that they can't retreat at all. You must know that the shells fired by this artillery regiment are enough to suppress an enemy infantry army. However, in order to deal with their Huayong battalion, Taiwan did not hesitate at all, and directly used the most shells, and threw the shells as if they didn't need money, which was simply cheating.
So they couldn't bear the pressure and chose to hope to surrender.
"General on the opposite side, our Huayong Battalion hopes to surrender!" Someone shouted immediately holding a white flag.
"Stop, you don't want to repeat the old tricks, use sneak attacks to win!" A soldier shouted immediately.
"General, we really want to surrender. I hope the general will agree to our surrender because we are all Chinese!" said the soldier of the Huayong camp.
And this news was sent to the headquarters in the capital, and Wang Guorui thought for a while and said: "I agree with them to surrender, but they must surrender unconditionally! No conditions can be put forward, and everything will be handled by us in the future."
"Husband, why did you ask them to surrender? Didn't you say you wanted them to die?" Zheng Hong asked.
However, Wang Guorui said: "I said to surrender unconditionally, so we don't have to be polite. After they surrendered, we sent all these more than 1,000 Huayong soldiers to Caishikou to behead them."
"Husband, do you want to kill and surrender?" Zheng Hong asked in surprise.
Wang Guorui said: "Yes, I will kill them. Trick them into surrendering, and then send them to all the people in the capital again to kill him."
"Husband, you must know that killing surrender is inauspicious!" Zheng Hong said immediately.
"It's unlucky to kill and surrender? Huh!" Wang Guorui snorted softly.
The telegram was sent to the front line, and after that Feng Wentian saw the telegram, he immediately said: "Order the heavy artillery brigade, cancel the firing order, and accept their surrender!"
"General Feng, did you just let them surrender like this? Our 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade finally had a chance to show its face, so it's gone?" said the liaison officer of the 1st Heavy Artillery Brigade.
"Execute the order, this is Lord Wang's order!" Feng Wentian said.
And after hearing that the Taiwanese troops on the opposite side were willing to agree to their surrender, the soldiers of the Huayong Battalion also breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that it is still possible. We surrendered, and they accepted our surrender?" said the translator.
"I don't know if they will kill us after we surrender!" Bauer thought.
But the translator immediately thought he was very "smart" and said: "Colonel Bauer~www.mtlnovel.com~ In our China, there is an old saying that a general cannot easily kill a person who surrenders. Killing surrender is inauspicious. , This is a rule that our China has recognized since ancient times. Since ancient times, no one will end well when killing those who have surrendered. So, I think we surrendered, they will not abuse us, let alone kill us. What's more, Wang Guorui wants to buy people's hearts, so naturally he can't kill those who surrendered. Therefore, I am safe. When Wang Guorui wants to change the dynasty, they will not choose to kill and surrender, otherwise they will definitely lose the hearts of the people. So , we are safe."
Hearing this, Bauer breathed a sigh of relief. But he felt that things were not that simple, because everyone hated traitors very much, but would Wang Guorui forgive the "traitor" so easily? Even the British Empire was merciless in the face of traitors. No country likes traitors. The leader of any organization hates traitors very much, and everyone shouts and beats traitors. Would Wang Guorui accept the surrender of these traitors so easily? This obviously took him by surprise.
However, since this is the case, it is better to take a gamble. I hope that Wang Guorui will really follow the ancient Chinese motto of killing prisoners, and Wang Guorui will not kill these prisoners. Anyway, after surrendering, you still have to obey the opponent's disposal, and the fate is also in the opponent's hands. What else can you say? (To be continued.)
