Chapter 18 Entering Jiujiang
Chapter 8 of the surrender and march into Jiujiang
"Surrender immediately and raise more white flags, hurry up, that monster is rushing towards us!" Chiang Kai-shek's order was issued, but now the revolutionary army is scared to have no morale and has long lost the intention to be loyal to anyone. Now each of them is trying to survive, so no one is willing to hold the white flag in front of the armored vehicles. After all, if the Iron Blood Army is unhappy, they may give them a string of bullets! They will be finished.
"Stop fighting! Let's surrender!" The armored vehicles were still moving, and they gathered together to rush into the dense areas of the revolutionary army. Along the way, the bullets of heavy machine guns were fired mercilessly until Tashi saw the strange white flags and the shouts that could pass through the armored vehicles.[]
"Stop the attack and shout! All revolutionary troops immediately put down their weapons, raised their hands and walked out of the village, and surrendered to our army, otherwise they would be killed without mercy!" Tian Shi couldn't help but feel happy when he looked at the current battlefield situation in front of the periscope. He originally thought that it would take a lot of trouble to make the other party surrender, but he didn't expect that just a few armored vehicles rushed in and the revolutionary troops raised the white flag to surrender.
"Listen to the Revolutionary Army, no matter whether you are an officer or a soldier, immediately put down your weapons and raise your hands, and surrender to our camp, otherwise you will be killed without mercy." While all the Revolutionary Army were waiting for the results with anxiety, a huge sound suddenly came from the armored vehicle.
It seems that the Iron Blood Army has accepted their surrender, so they immediately put down their weapons for fear of being attacked.
"The other eleven armored vehicles are on standby here and command the vehicles to return!" The Revolutionary Army surrendered. As the surrender of the army, he should of course be personally surrendered. So Tian Shi held the flag-spoken words and asked the other eleven armored vehicles to be ready to deal with anything here at any time, while he returned to the army.
"The brigade, the division has returned and issued an order to stop shooting." The revolutionary army has surrendered! "The Second Brigade of the Mechanics, which was the main attack in the east, is still attacking. At this time, Tashi had returned to the outside of the village and ordered the offensive troops to stop the artillery attack.
"Well! Stop the artillery immediately and prepare to accept the enemy's surrender." Qiu Lianchang, the commander of the Second Brigade, immediately issued a ceasefire order after receiving the order. After the order was issued, the artillery groups that were still firing continuously stopped one after another, as if all the attacks disappeared in the moment of buying. It can be imagined to see what extent the Iron Blood Army's military discipline and soldiers' reaction qualities have reached, which can be almost called a ban on orders.
"Coax..." The troops' attack stopped." A moment later, the special roar of the armored vehicle came, and Tian Shi's command vehicle had arrived here.
Qiu Lianchang, who was commanding the troops, hurriedly brought the officers from the brigade headquarters to greet him.
"Cruff..." After the arrival of the armored vehicle, the heavy door at the rear slowly opened. Tian Shi and several staff members walked off the combat command vehicle. Deng Sen almost personally participated in the design of the armored vehicle of the Iron Blood Army. The appearance of the design was almost the same as that of the later armored vehicles. There was an iron gate behind the armored vehicle. Where did the soldiers enter and exit.
"Reporting the throne, Qiu Lianchang of the Second Brigade came to report!" Qiu Lianchang immediately met Tian Shi when he saw him walk down the armored vehicle, and immediately stepped forward with his right hand, holding his fist to xiong, and gave a new military salute. Now in the early stage of the reform of the Iron Blood Army, of course, in order to show his differences from other armies, Deng Sen chose to hold his fist as a military salute. Such military salute is called the Han military salute. When his subordinates see the commander, they must stand attentively, then hold his fist straight with his right hand and then gently pat his fist with his fist. "While the action, the face must face the commander, and the salute is very fast, and he almost immediately put it down after hitting the cubicle.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers from the Second Brigade!" Tian Shi nodded, and at the same time he gave a bow with his feet, and said to the commanders of the Second Brigade.
"We don't work hard for the government, for the nation, and for the head of state!" Many officers responded immediately after Tian Shi returned the gift.
"Okay! Organize surrender! Of course, don't relax your vigilance." Except for enemy officers who hold guns, they shoot directly!" Tian Shi smiled at everyone, he was young. Although Deng Sen's efforts and his brother Tian Ding's reputation during this period, he was very prosperous in the Iron Blood Army, the mechanics had never defeated the enemy alone on the battlefield, and their military expenditure was the highest among the troops." Therefore, it is normal to be envied. It is precisely because of this that the entire mechanics held their breath and wanted to show their strength. Today they finally got what they wanted.
Under the command of the officers, the Iron Blood Army divided a battalion as the surrendered force, arranged two rows on the road leading to the outside world in the village, while the Revolutionary Army raised their hands and crossed the roadblocks they originally designed.
Chiang Kai-shek, with his two division commanders and dozens of other officers.
Holding a Western command knife, he led the soldiers to advance slowly towards the place where Tian Shi was. Nearly a hundred trucks were stagnant on both sides of the surrendered army. A heavy machine gun was monitoring them, as if they were ready to shoot at any time.
After walking a few meters in front of Tian Shi, Chiang Kai-shek saw clearly the commander of this terrifying force. However, the other party was not the scheming middle-aged general he thought about, but a young officer with a beard on his face. He looked only about twenty years old. The shiny shoulder stamp on the officer's body was obviously telling them that this was a lieutenant general, a twenty-year-old lieutenant general. If it were in the past, he would definitely think this guy was just a vase, but now he would not think so. This young man has absolute command skills and is a talent who can be called a tiger general in his decisive manner.
"Chang Kai-shek, deputy commander of the Seventh Army of the National Revolutionary Army, led our army to surrender to your troops!" After coming to Tian Shi, he performed a military salute to Tian, and Tian Shi also responded with a diplomatic military salute. Although there were Han military salutes, the Han military salutes were all internal, and the user raised his hand salutes during most of the combat time.
"The Su-An government, the lieutenant general of the SS First Mechanic, Tian Shi, on behalf of our government and our party, accept your surrender!" Tian Shi stood straight, stretched out his right hand with white gloves to take the command knife from Chiang Kai-shek's hand, and then sent someone to escort Chiang Kai-shek and others.
Twenty minutes later, teams of revolutionary soldiers brought the guns together, and then one of them came over with his hands raised, and were escorted to the temporary prisoner-of-war camp by Iron Blood soldiers.
"Oh my God! Look, there are only so many black-clothed army! So many revolutionary troops surrendered like this!" In the farmland in the distance, the people who had avoided the war in the deserted world widened their eyes because in China's civil war, they were almost always fighting for the number of people and weapons, and the Iron Blood Army mechanics were only more than 20,000. This is just a large number of drivers and machine gunners loading weapons. Therefore, there were even fewer infantry outside, which gave others the illusion that there was a huge difference in strength.
"I understand! Those must be the Iron Blood Army on Anwei's side. My child was in Jiujiang High School. After he returned home some time ago, he talked about Anwei's Iron Blood Army. He heard that the foreign army was beaten by him and cried and called his parents. Think about it, the foreign army is not his opponent and these revolutionary troops are even more impossible to beat them!" Some people had heard of the Iron Blood Army, so they said to the people around them.
On the battlefield, half an hour later, the 22nd Division, the 24th Division, the artillery, the languishing troops and a large number of prisoners came here.
Although he won a great victory, Li Fang's expression was very heavy. His rash advance almost caused the entire 24th Division of the 22nd Division to be wiped out. Although he has not been wiped out in full, he has also lost one-third of his troops. The two divisions have lost a total of about 15,000 wives. It is conceivable how much thunderous and furious Deng Sen will be after he gets such a result.
In fact, the fact is what he thought!
"Waste! Li Fang, this waste! I told them not to be proud. Now, my two old main divisions have been crippled! Two divisions were actually crippled in the civil war. If I were to lose two armies in the foreign war?" Dengson was furious with the telegram, but he was not ready to replace Li Fang, and he was not ready to punish him afterwards. Why? Because Li Fang is one of his generals and his confidant, he could not cut off his arms, but he also had to give him some eye drops at the same time, otherwise how much force would the Iron Blood Army lose in the future battlefield if this continues.
"Send a report to Li Fang! Use a mechanic to attack Jiujiang immediately, and the infantry and artillery arrive quickly. I don't want to pass by. I just need to take the result!" Deng Sen was preparing to show his sharp blade to let the Beiyang Army know his power, and he was not prepared to participate in the subsequent march. Now he must quickly leap forward to develop the two provinces to strive to give Yuan Shikai a fatal blow when Yuan Shikai was angry and resentful. Therefore, he still needs to develop now. The more enemies he occupied, the greater his financial pressure. The three provinces are now enough for him to develop. With the Indonesian colony, as long as it has been developed for two years, not to mention surpassing Japan, at least the complete set of industrial chains can be formed. At that time, all military supplies no longer need to rely on the great powers. Until then, he can have real self-combat power.
Li Fang looked quietly with the telegram. In the telegram, Deng Sen did not scold him or switch his military post, but he knew that there would be punishment! And he was very guilty in his heart now. Tens of thousands of soldiers died because of his carelessness. He felt that he was in great sin!
"Order the mechanic to replenish the oil, open the way in front of the 22nd and 24th Divisions each to leave a brigade to escort the prisoners, and all the other troops will go to Jiujiang quickly!" Silently put down the telegram, Li Fang turned around and issued an order to the staff behind him.
He secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely fight in Jiujiang to make up for his mistakes.
In the dark night, armored vehicles and trucks turned on their headlights and moved slowly. Twelve armored vehicles have now been used as towing vehicles, each pulling a heavy cannon, and other trucks have replaced most of the previous mules and horses.
