Time passed. In the blink of an eye, another six days had passed. On this day, the baldy finally sent a message. He, Tang Jiyao, and the others were already in position. They were just waiting for an order, and the second Northern Expedition would begin. After receiving the message, the Sichuan army quickly ended their warm-up training and returned to their posts, waiting for the order to attack!
Liu Feng wasn't idle at the moment. He was currently in the courtyard where he and the bald man were talking.
"Jianye, how we fight the Northern Expedition this time will depend entirely on your Sichuan Army. This time, my little fortune is almost all on your Sichuan Army!”The bald man said to Liu Feng earnestly.
Indeed, a large part of the reason why he dared to fight so many people with fewer people was because of Liu Feng's Sichuan Army. If there was any trouble with the Sichuan Army, his revolutionary army would suffer heavy losses even if it was not a complete defeat.
At this critical moment, if they suffered heavy losses, the result might be that the morale of the revolutionary army would be shaken. At that time, it might lead to even more serious consequences, and even a complete defeat might happen. It could be said that Baldy had placed his fate on the head of the Sichuan army. It had to be said that this was a big gamble. If he had not spoken to Liu Feng before, as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition Army, he would never have done this.
Now, even with Liu Feng's guarantee, he still couldn't help but feel worried.
"Haha, commander, you don't have to do that. In this northern expedition, commander's men only need to enter the battlefield to clean up after we clear the large-scale threats. As for the rest, if nothing unexpected happens, commander, you don't have to worry about it." Liu Feng said with a high-spirited smile when he saw the bald man's reaction.
What a joke. For an army like the Sichuan Army, which he had spent a huge amount of money to build and was specially designed to deal with the imperialist forces outside the borders, if there were problems even when fighting against a mere warlord force, then he could just wash up and sleep early. After all, if the Sichuan Army with such luxurious equipment could not even defeat some third-rate or even lower-level "combat scum", how could he talk about "expelling the Tartars and restoring China" in the future? Then it would be better to wash up and sleep early, and not come out to embarrass himself.
Therefore, Liu Feng felt that there was no need to worry about Baldy. Just like what he said before, after he had covered the battlefield with artillery fire, he could let Baldy clean up the battlefield.
After all, these warlord soldiers were not like those Japanese soldiers who could stubbornly resist the bombardment of large-caliber US cannons and planes. After all, they had not received strict training, and they did not have the idea of being loyal to anyone. Their current combat strength was probably similar to the puppet army in the history of the future. They might be able to make do in a favorable battle, but if they fought against the wind, it would be good enough if they could not be defeated on the spot!
Seeing that Liu Feng wasn't worried at all, the baldy felt relieved. Thinking about the extravagant lineup of the Sichuan army, he felt relieved. He had seen the combat power of these warlords before. Although their equipment was better than his, their combat power was not as good as his. And now, with the equipment completely reversed, if he could still lose, then he could indeed wash up and sleep. This time, he was too worried!
The bald man relaxed after he put down the worries in his heart. He then discussed with Liu Feng again and went back to rest. There wouldn't be much rest time left...
The next morning at four o'clock, an urgent bugle sounded throughout the entire camp. In an instant, the previously quiet camp seemed to have a huge rock thrown into the pool of water, causing waves to rise in all directions! Military vehicles drove out of the camp one after another. Behind the vehicles were ferocious cannons. Soon, these cannons would start to roar, and the pitch-black muzzles would be stained with blood!
According to the location they had surveyed earlier, at 5:30 in the morning, the various artillery units began to enter the position. According to the process that had been operated countless times, they unfolded the gun carriages and set up the artillery position!
The rest of the Sichuan infantry and Revolutionary Army soldiers began to get into position!
At eight o'clock in the morning, Liu Feng and Baldy received a message from the artillery that the artillery position was ready. Then, Liu Feng picked up the SCR536 that was specially produced by the Red Alert Base. With an order, more than 400 heavy artillery guns in the artillery position began to roar!
Wu Peifu's troops, who were still active in the military camp and even sleeping soundly, did not know that they were about to face a great disaster! Until the cannons of the Sichuan army began to roar…
"What's that sound?" Someone heard an ear-piercing scream and could not help but turn to ask his companion beside him. However, just as he finished speaking, he heard a bang. Instantly, his head felt dizzy. His entire head was filled with a buzzing sound, and the world seemed to have fallen silent!
He couldn't hear anything. He only looked at the huge pit in front of him and his companions who were still running around. Having experienced many battles, he knew that this was a cannon attack, and it was something he had never seen before. He had never seen a heavy cannon attack, but he knew that the huge pit in front of him was definitely not something that could be caused by a mortar!
[This is heavy artillery! It's definitely heavy artillery! I've been fighting for so long, but I haven't encountered any decent artillery. I don't know why the Revolutionaries on the other side have heavy artillery!] He couldn't figure it out, but it didn't hinder his movements. His dizzy head forced him to stumble into the huge crater in front of him! Having been a veteran for many years, he understood that hiding in the crater was the safest thing to do at this time! Because it was almost impossible for the same cannon to hit the same spot twice in a row!
He knew that the bombardment was only the beginning. Since the enemy had such a large caliber cannon, it would definitely not end with just one or two shots. His entire body shrank into the crater, trying to reduce his area as much as possible! He didn't want to die. He just wanted to go home alive!
After an unknown period of time, he felt that the vibration under him seemed to have stopped! His ears seemed to have regained some sense. He began to hear wails. He knew that these were the wails of his companions who were running around! If they didn't find cover in such a bombardment, they would only end up like them, howling in pain, or not even having the chance to howl in pain!
The tremors had ended, and the artillery bombardment should have ended as well. According to the usual pattern, as a veteran, he should return to his position, because the end of the artillery bombardment meant the beginning of the infantry charge! However, he did not take any action. In the past, at this time, those " overseers " would most likely have come up to supervise the battlefield. Now, he did not hear these annoying voices. Perhaps they would never be able to say it, or perhaps they were scared out of their wits!
PS: Sorry everyone, I was delayed by something today. In order to express my apologies, I added another chapter today. Sorry everyone!
