Chapter 20 General Mobilization

The army always serves politics, and with the telegram in hand Deng Sen was also thinking about whether to let the revolutionaries go or to break up with it. Frankly admit that most revolutionaries are also loyal to the nation and the motherland, but people who are too honest are prone to die prematurely, so the later revolutionary party was so corrupt. Moreover, although Huang Xing was the leader of the revolution, he lacked military capabilities, lacked strong self-confidence, and had the ability to control his subordinates. It is already July, and in a few months, the Second Revolution will begin. This time the Revolutionary Party ended in a crushing defeat, but public opinion was still poured over to the revolutionary party. If he catered to Beiyang at this time and attacked the Revolutionary Party, he would definitely be disgusted by most emerging intellectuals and would be extremely bad for future development. However, he had no confidence in resisting hundreds of thousands of troops in Beiyang and had a dilemma.

Deng Sen's eyes became redder when he lit a cigarette and looked at the English on the tobacco.

"A small cigarette is from abroad. What else do I have in China? The bullshit revolution has only spawned a group of greedy warlords calling me a dictatorship, but are you few? China does not need the people, China needs iron blood, a bloody baptism, and war." Dengson almost roared to himself, scaring the guards outside the door tightly shrank their necks. Dengson also couldn't figure out why China, which has more than 400 million people, was so weak.

"Come here, call Peng Qingjin here." After venting, Deng Sen returned to his seat and threw the cigarette produced in the United States aside.

"First of the People, are you looking for me?" Peng Qingjin was waiting for Deng Sen's summons in the office on the side, because Deng Sen will definitely handle such matters in a short time.

"I replied to Huang Xing and said that the Revolutionary Army was the first to attack our unit, and that our unit had killed and injured thousands of soldiers in Sishui. This matter cannot be over! I must give those guys severe punishment. However, for the revolutionary army, as long as they put down their armed forces and surrender, I can release them without any blame. If my request cannot be met, then let them go!" After much consideration, Deng Sen decided to conquer Sishui City, not only because of the casualties, but also because of the show, the show and the Beiyang, because he had this trick.

"I ordered the Second Brigade to attack fiercely after the artillery arrived, and attacked Sishui. No one was allowed to escape. Zhao Yan and Sishui County Magistrate Bihe, and severely punished all revolutionary soldiers. After the war, all reserve soldiers in Si Town will be dispatched to Chenji to prevent the revolutionary army from attacking. At the same time, all militia reserve troops from the central and northern regions will be dispatched, the contracted First Brigade, the Third Brigade and the independent regiments will be dispatched to advance northwards, and from Xiaoxian to Xuzhou. This time I will make a big deal.

, and also teach Zhang Xun a lesson. If it weren't for this bastard, I wouldn't have to be attacked on both sides, and I would also have to worry about insufficient military strength." The north and south attacked at the same time, and the defenders in Lingbi were all drawn. This was a gambling by Deng Sen, an unprecedented gambling. He wanted to defeat in a short period of time, at least defeat Zhang Xun, and then replace Zhang Xun's position in northern Jiangsu and northern Anhui, becoming an important force in Beiyang to resist the revolutionary party. Only in this way can he develop more stably.

Although Beiyang has made great progress in recent years, the revolutionary party has also expanded on the surface. The southern provinces seem to be richer than the northern provinces, and the military weapons have also improved. All the troops have more than hundreds of thousands of them together. Yuan Shikai was afraid of this. However, the real situation is that the revolutionary party collapsed and fought on their own, so it was later defeated by Yuan Shikai, just like the second Northern Expedition. Deng Sen also thought about it, first

Occupying northern Anhui, and then during the Second Revolution, as long as the revolutionary party did not beat him, he would not be able to support the revolutionary party and support Yuan Shikai's constitution in battle. I think Yuan Shikai also hopes for stability in the country, and at that time he could eat up the northern region under control of Zhang Xun. As long as he claimed to support Yuan Shikai, Yuan Shikai would follow the principle of not helping each other. After Yuan Shikai became emperor for a few years, he would take advantage of the situation and annex the provinces of the Yangtze River Delta.

With Deng Sen's order, various troops issued orders, and militia organizations from all over the country gathered quickly, which scared many bandits and local forces in several counties around them to flee far away. Lingbi must have been mobilized. This is something I had never seen before.

Outside the town in the north of Lingbi, hundreds of trucks were busy transporting ammunition and medicine, but unfortunately they could only use trucks here. Lingbi's road was renovated after Deng Sen took over the entire Lingbi, so he could withstand the trucks on rainy days. Even so, many trucks were trapped in the quagmire. The trucks on the attack route afterwards were difficult to use. The only ones used were the trucks that towed artillery from the artillery regiment. Moreover, the journey of these trucks could be said to be accompanied by dozens of soldiers to use manpower to push them out after falling into the quagmire.

The military flag is flying, and the heavy rain has gradually turned into moderate rain. Most of the regular soldiers under Deng Sen have raincoats or straw raincoats, but as many as 20,000 militiamen have no preparations. They wear militia clothes and cloth hats to advance in the rain. For a moment, a pair of large and small troops led by the Eagle Banner can be seen on the entire Lingbi road. According to Deng Sen's organization of militia, there are about 2,000 militias in each town. If it is absolutely impossible to successfully form it in other areas, but there are too many refugees coming here. According to statistics, nearly one million people from the surrounding areas rushed in in May alone, which made them originally want to rely on the Xia Sheng station to lead them.

Deng Sen, who made extra money from the food he came, had to destroy this idea. Lingbi is now densely populated, but fortunately Lingbi's available arable land can still bear 400,000. The excess population was all arranged in Su County. Because participating in the militia can get many preferential policies of the government, ordinary people participated enthusiastically, without worrying about the absence of soldiers. The only thing that made Deng Sen feel urgent was the military pay. Due to the high military pay at the beginning, troubles are now increasingly emerging. The income of the two counties alone could not support the tens of thousands of troops. It can be said that the three million oceans that were almost blackmailed by Lao Cai, the landlord of the two counties, had now been cut off.

Internal conflicts must be resolved externally. Whether it is a region or a country, internal crises arise, if you want to resolve them, you must find a solution outside. Deng Sen is thinking about occupying Dangshan, Xiaoxian and Huaibei part. Even Dangshan can be avoided and occupied a land in Huaibei. Only with the emergence of large coal mines and iron ores, the Americans will support him more to ensure the military's food and salary.

Compared with the busy county, Sishui has not stopped. The artillery was finally transported to Sishui with the efforts of the soldiers. The gunners were urgently fixing the artillery. Because the soil was soft on rainy days, the landing on the surface could not offset the recoil force brought by the artillery. The artillery had to dig the land, remove the soft mud on the surface, and fix the artillery in a hard soil layer of about 1.5 meters.

"I'll give them the final call, if they don't surrender, they will launch shelling. Today, even if all these city walls are blown up, Sishui will be taken down." Tian Ding knew Deng Sen's plan, so he must quickly resolve Sishui. While arguing with the revolutionary party, Chen Bing showed the illusion of wanting to fight with it in the Sishui border to cover the attack from the north. The revolutionary party on the other side was involved in a critical moment.
