Bai Shan commanded the victorious Great Wall Guards to bring over four thousand captives back to Luan County overnight.
On the way back, there was an abandoned village that had been relocated to Luan County.
At this moment, there were thousands of fiendish bandits hiding in the village. All of them were armed. They were the people of Black Wind Mountain.
They had long set their eyes on the rich Luan County, but they had been too afraid to act rashly.
Early this morning, the leader of Black Wind Mountain heard that a war was about to break out between the Tang Shan Prefecture and Luan County. He was ecstatic and immediately summoned his troops to find an opportunity to ambush them here.
They wanted to wait for both sides to suffer heavy losses before coming out to reap the benefits.
For this reason, he had specially brought people over after dark. He wanted to be able to do it without anyone noticing.
This was a place that both Tang and Luan would pass by regardless of who won.
"They're coming, they're coming. Chief, please allow me to be the vanguard and defeat them in one fell swoop.”
A small bandit leader was lying on the roof, looking at the long line of torches approaching from afar. He held an old musket in his hand, his eyes shining with eagerness.
" Pa!" The man had just finished speaking when he was slapped in the face.
"Are you f * cking stupid? Can't you see that there are several times more people on the other side than us? You still dare to hit me? What are you going to use? Do you even have a brain?”
"Retreat!" The Great Leader was also lying on the roof, looking at the Great Wall Army approaching and gradually disappearing. He still did not have the courage to make a move and ordered a retreat.
Along the way, he was thinking about problems.
"They fought so fast? Did the Tang Shan Prefecture win or did the Luan County Prefecture win?”
"Also, what are those big pieces of iron? It's so loud that it looks scary."
Bai Shan did not know that he had almost fallen into an ambush, and very quickly returned to Luan County City.
From afar, he could see the trees standing below the city gate.
This warmed the hearts of the soldiers. Bai Shan jogged over and saluted.
"Commander, the battle has ended. Our army has 17 casualties, 4 casualties, 300 enemy casualties, and 4,200 prisoners.”
"Good, you did very well.”Even though he knew that he would win, he could not help but reveal a smile on his face when he heard Bai Shan personally say it.
"Put the captives next to the camp for the time being. Let the new soldiers who haven't gone to the battlefield watch over them.”
"Yes, sir!"
On the other side, in the east of Luan County, there was a mountain in Linyu that was located between Qinhuang Island and Luan County. It was called Jieshi Mountain, and the battle between the two sides started at the foot of the mountain.
Compared to the shrimps and crab generals of the Tang Shan Prefecture, the troops of Lin Yu were clearly more difficult to deal with.
This was because Lin Yu was close to the Feng lineage's territory. In order to prevent the Feng lineage from going south, the main lineage had stationed a large number of elite troops there.
There were three regiments in Lin Yu City alone, a total of seven thousand soldiers under the command of Cao Hu, the nephew of Cao Kun, one of the leaders of the Feng faction.
The battle had entered a stalemate from the start.
Although the weapons of the Lin Yu Army were far inferior to the Great Wall Army, they had the advantage of numbers and five 55mm howitzers that had been eliminated from the German army more than a decade ago. Coupled with the rugged terrain, they managed to fight with some effort.
Although the Great Wall Army only had a thousand men, they had more than thirty tanks. Although the tanks were unable to move at the foot of the mountain and could not advance quickly, the continuous firing of the 88mm cannon made the Lin Yu Army unable to raise their heads.
"Everyone, pay attention to hide behind the tank. Don't shoot rashly.”
"What do we do now? Battalion Commander Li, our casualties have already exceeded one-tenth. If this continues, we will be wiped out by the enemy.”
Upon hearing this news, the acting battalion commander Li Yun Long's heart sank as he cursed furiously.
"Damn it, the damn road conditions. If it weren't for the fact that it was near the foot of the mountain and the tanks couldn't move, I would have directly crushed them. How could they be so arrogant?”
"Boom!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cannonball landed beside a German Tiger. The tank was unharmed, but the soil stirred up by the gunpowder splashed all over the heads of the surrounding people.
" Bah! Bah! F * ck!" Li Yunlong spat out the dirt in his mouth and scratched his head while cursing.
"Battalion Commander, the commander sent a telegram asking about the situation. How should we reply?”
the signalman asked.
"Damn it, reply to the commander and tell him that we have encountered more than 7,000 enemy troops. We are currently in a hot battle and will be able to defeat the enemy in no time.”
Li Yun Long's mouth was extremely dirty, and his two sentences did not deviate from the women of the other tribe.
That's right, Li Yun Long's orders were to take down Lin Yu and not to repel the enemy. This was also the reason why he took the initiative to attack.
At this moment, Lin Shu, who was far away in Luan County, was sitting on a spacious and comfortable sofa bed. He was holding a can of Jianlibao soda produced by Big Tree Catering Company. After taking a sip, he took the telegram from Zhang Xingzhong and frowned.
"Seven thousand people? That shouldn't be the case. Even if there were 10,000 people on the other side facing a flood of steel formed by 30 tanks, it was impossible to stop them.”
"Ask what happened."
"Yes,"
Zhang Xingzhong went to the communication room next door and returned soon after." It was because of the mistake of the acting battalion commander, Li Yunlong. He ignored the road requirements for the tank to travel and walked at the foot of Jieshi Mountain. As a result, the tank was caught in the middle of the road and was in a dilemma. It was originally nothing. After a short rest, it could travel normally. However, it just had to encounter the enemy at this time."”
"This person is not capable enough to be a battalion commander.”Lin Shu massaged his eyebrows.
"You can go down first. Let me think.”
Today was July 10th, 1920.
Four days later, on the 14th, a large-scale war broke out between the warlords led by Wu Peifu and Cao Kun and the warlords led by Duan Qirui for the control of the capital government.
The main battlefield was in the Jing area, and the Feng faction in the north would also participate to help them attack Wan.
This was related to the ownership of the Northern Warlords Government. Once the war broke out, both sides would definitely go all out and have no time for other matters.
This would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
At this time, no matter what you do, as long as you can do it, no one can care about you.
However, the war only lasted for less than a week, which meant that Lin Shu only had a week.
Therefore, Lin Shu did not have time to waste. He had to seize every second to expand his territory. After the end of the war, it would not be so easy to fish in troubled waters.
