"What did you say? The 32nd Division was completely wiped out? Cui Lianying died in battle?"
Li Peiji's face was filled with disbelief. His eyes widened as he looked at the staff officer in front of him.
"Yes, I am! After the 32nd Division's first attack failed, Han Ling counter-attacked them, and a hand-to-hand battle ensued.
Our side had suffered great losses in the hand-to-hand battle. Cui Lianying felt that something was wrong, so he advocated retreating to Guisui.
However, Han Ling did not let the Thirty-second Division off the hook and continued to pursue them.
The 32nd Division was about to escape, but they didn't expect Han Ling to have planned this. He sent his 2nd Regiment to Hai Village in the Military Province and blocked the 32nd Division there. In the end, the 32nd Division was wiped out!”
The staff officer's voice was a little low, and Li Peiji's expression was very ugly.
An infantry division with over 8,000 soldiers was taken down by a temporary unit that Han Ling had assembled!
"Send a message to Officer Yan! Just say that Han Ling wants to replace the position of our Jin army, please judge! In addition, get the three cavalry divisions to enter the city immediately and set up an ambush! Once Han Ling recklessly attacked Gui Sui, he would have the three cavalry divisions charge out and destroy him!”
Li Peiji thought about it and decided to tell Old Yan about it.
As for the purpose! It was very simple. They wanted money!
Li Peiji knew that Old Yan was preparing to go to war with the Nanjing chairman.
There were no extra troops to be transferred over, and now he told him this. In order to solve his worries, he could only give him money to recruit an army. Then, he would give him a batch of weapons to eliminate Han Ling.
This way, he could replenish the strength he had lost.
If it worked well, it might be even stronger than before.
As for Han Ling's troops!
Perhaps his troops had good combat strength, but what about the cavalry?
Li Peiji didn't believe that his few thousand men could withstand the charge of seven to eight thousand cavalrymen.
This person! His thoughts were still stuck in the past.
In Europe, after the war, they all knew.
With light and heavy machine guns, complete trenches, and barbed wire, the role that the cavalry could play was to reduce the number of bullets on their side.
Now, after more than ten years, the weapons of various countries had once again developed by leaps and bounds.
If their firepower was strong enough, even if they didn't use barbed wire, a simple position would be enough to make the cavaliers live targets!
............................
Taiyuan, Shanxi, Yan Baichuan's official residence!
"What did you say? Han Ling defeated Li Peiji's infantry division with just two infantry regiments? Nearly 6,000 people ate 8,000 people. Nearly 9,000 people?”
Old Yan's eyes widened as he looked at Zhao Daiwen.
He really couldn't believe it. The difference in military strength was an entire regiment!
With such a huge disparity in strength, he, Han Ling, could actually eat it?
"Baichuan! I didn't believe it when I heard it, but after confirming it three times, I had no choice but to believe it.
It seemed like Han Ling had planned this all along!
How long had he been back? More than a month! They had grown from being a loner to having more than 6,000 soldiers under their command. Moreover, it was said that their weapons and equipment were of excellent quality. To be able to use a weaker force to devour an advantageous force, this also meant that the combat strength of those soldiers was not weak!”
Old Yan understood what Zhao Daiwen meant.
Han Ling was able to gather such a team in such a short period of time. It was obvious that he was not here to guard the house. This Han Ling was ambitious!
"En! I understand! Ci Long Gong, do you think Li Peiji can eliminate Han Ling?”
Now, Old Yan no longer had any thoughts of supporting Han Ling. The other party was already here to fight for territory with him, so why would he still support him?、
All he wanted to do now was to kill Han Ling.
"Destroy Han Ling? This would depend on how they fought.
If he fought well, he might be able to eat Han Ling. If he fought badly, he might be able to eat Han Ling. Suiyuan will probably be lost!"
Zhao Daiwen didn't think too highly of Li Peiji.
Although Li Peiji still had a cavalry division under him, their equipment was too poor.
Furthermore, during the Battle of Bikeqi, Han Ling was able to defeat the 32nd Division with a weak force. This showed that his military command ability was not low.
Previously, when Li Peiji had made things difficult for him, he had endured for so long and waited until he had the strength to make things difficult. This showed that this person had a certain degree of shrewdness.
Zhao Daiwen personally thought that if Han Ling lay low there for a while, he would only make a move when his side and the chairman started fighting.
At that time, they would really have no choice.
Thinking of this, Zhao Daiwen heaved a sigh of relief.
Although Han Ling was shrewd, he was still too young.
As long as they were young, they were easy to deal with!
..........
"Then are we sitting on the fishing platform?”
A smile appeared on Old Yan's face.
"No, I can't! Now is the critical moment to start a war with Nanjing. You can't do this at this time, or it will be difficult to calm the people! After all, Li Peiji is an old man who has followed you.
Although you have disloyalty, I'm afraid some people will feel unfair if you do this. Why don't you allocate some guns, ammunition, and weapons to him? Not too much, just a little! At that time, it would not chill the hearts of the people below!”
The current Old Yan was not as experienced as he would be seven or eight years later.
In many aspects, his considerations were not as complete as Zhao Daiwen's.
However, Old Yan's stingy attitude was already showing signs.
Just like this time, Zhao Daiwen asked him to allocate some guns, ammunition, and money.
He felt that this was just something to stabilize the hearts of his subordinates.
Therefore, they allocated 500 rifles and 5,000 dollars!
This bit of money and weapons was completely nonsense.
When Li Peiji received these things, his face darkened.
Originally, he thought that Old Yan would at least replenish the troops under him, but who knew that it would be such a small thing. This was completely to send off beggars.
................
Nanjing Leader's Mansion
"We haven't found any connection between him and any foreign forces. It's just that we can't find out the source of his weapons and the origin of his soldiers!
His thousands of soldiers seemed to have emerged from the ground!
In the battle of Bikeqi, the quality of the soldiers seemed to be even higher than the quality of our soldiers!”
Dai Li stood in front of the chairman, looking at him respectfully.
"Higher quality than our soldiers?”
The chairman paused, then said,""Send someone to contact this Han Ling. Pull them to our side!”
"Yes, sir!"
