Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Wang Xiao issued the order, the Western Sichuan Army Staff Headquarters immediately began to take action. Led by Xiong Wu, Cai Yun and Jiang Xingguo, with the participation of a large number of mid-level and senior staff officers, a combat plan aimed at annexing Qinghai and Gansu was immediately launched.  Slowly taking shape.  Because the last time the Western Sichuan Army was mobilized, it was learned by spies from the Qing court, so this time, all preparations were carried out in secret.  People in the Qing court also knew the importance of Qinghai and Gansu.  Therefore, it is undoubtedly the best to hide it from them.

    In December, the temperature on the plateau has dropped to more than ten degrees below zero. It has been snowing heavily for several days. The entire Qamdo area has been covered with a thick layer of snow, and all traffic has been interrupted.  This period of time is also the most difficult time.  The troops on the plateau cannot be replenished, whether it is weapons, ammunition or other living supplies, and can only use their previous reserves.  Fortunately, at this time, there are usually no enemies attacking, and the only thing they have to face is the cold winter.

    The third company¡¯s military station, after a period of repairs, was restored to its original state again.  The wall that was blown up has been repaired.  The Juma that had been blown up outside the wall was re-erected, and the defense of the entire military station was once again restored to an impregnable state.  The fallen soldiers of the Third Company were also properly disposed of. According to regulations, their ashes will be sent back in the coming spring.  Their families will also receive a considerable pension.  At the same time, the livelihood of the family will also become the first consideration of the local government.

    During the rise of Western Sichuan, too many soldiers sacrificed their lives for it, but they still did not regret it and dedicated everything to the great cause of Western Sichuan.  The most critical point is that the Western Sichuan government, or Commander Wang Xiao, is really fighting for the interests of the people in Western Sichuan.  After the development of industry and commerce in western Sichuan, the people at the bottom also benefited a lot.  If western Sichuan was annihilated by the Qing court, their lives would return to the precarious state they had a few decades ago. Therefore, when fighting against the Qing court, all soldiers dared to fight tooth and nail.

    At the same time, the sound pension system for soldiers killed and disabled in western Sichuan also allows the majority of soldiers to have no worries.  Basically, all the soldiers who were killed or disabled, their families, and their future expenses were borne by the government.  This, to a large extent, makes soldiers very brave when fighting.  This is also the reason why the Western Sichuan Army can compete with hundreds of thousands of troops against the Qing court's tens of millions of troops.

    "What's the status of the soldiers now?" Wang Yuze asked, standing on the tower next to the gate.  Wang Wei stood beside him.

    "It's not bad! After the last battle, the morale of the soldiers has greatly increased!" Wang Wei said excitedly.

    In winter, in addition to the severe cold, we have to face loneliness and boredom.  Heavy snow blocked roads, making it difficult to carry out daily training. The soldiers mostly stayed in their dormitories except for sentry duty.  This is also the time when things are most likely to go wrong.  Mutinies may even occur for a variety of reasons.  For this reason, a large number of sporting goods are generally prepared in military camps to vent the soldiers' excess energy.

    "Company commander, the ninth squadron sent someone to report that a group of Qingma Army soldiers were advancing towards their outpost!" Suddenly, the third platoon leader Shi Deyou ran up to the tower and reported.

    "Green Horse Army? How many people are there?" Wang Yuze was shocked.  Although it is freezing cold now, the Qingma Army should not launch a large-scale attack.  But who knows whether the Qingma Army will do anything amazing?  After all, the current eldest young master of the Qingma Army and the future heir was caught by him.  It may not be impossible for the Green Horse Army to jump over the wall in a hurry.

    "Company Commander, there are not many of them here, only about ten of them!" Shi Deyou replied.

    "Let the people from Class Nine bring them over!" Wang Yuze said.  The dozen or so people were obviously not here to attack the third company's military station.  Thousands of people had not captured the third company's military station before, and with only this few people coming, it would be even more impossible.  Wang Yuze guessed that these people might be here to inquire about information or negotiate.  If we really wanted to launch a large-scale attack on the third company's military station, we wouldn't bring only this few people.  Besides, the current weather is not suitable for large-scale marches.

    Soon, a group of more than ten people rushed to the third company's military station.  The body is also covered with snowflakes. Looking from a distance, it looks like a snowman.  In such freezing weather, it was indeed very hard to come from the Qingma Army's station.

    "Ah Wei, go down and shoot them, then lead them to the office!" After Wang Yuze finished speaking, he went down from the tower.

    "Okay, company commander!" Wang Wei hurriedly ran towards the door.

    There were eleven people in the Qingma Army who came. They were wearing thick leather jackets. Even so, their faces were still black and blue from the cold.  The leader is a middle-aged man in his thirties. Although he is not very good-looking,But with those shining eyes, it seemed that this middle-aged man was not easy to deal with.  The deputy squad leader of Class 9 and two soldiers brought them here.

    The guards at the gate stopped them. They would definitely not be let into the military station without receiving orders from their superiors.

    "By the order of the company commander, you put down your guns, and then you can enter the military station!" Wang Wei came to the gate and said loudly.  The guards watched these Qingma Army soldiers with vigilance.  The heavy machine gun on the tower also pointed its muzzle at them.  Once there is any abnormal movement, the heavy machine gun will fire immediately, and within a few seconds, they can all be sieved.

    "What? You want us to hand over our guns?" The soldiers of the Qing Ma Army who were inspected by the middle-aged man suddenly started to make a fuss.

    "Humph!" Wang Wei snorted coldly, looked at them coldly, and said nothing.  However, the guards at the gate loaded their guns and pointed them at the Qing Ma Army.  There is a posture of firing immediately after receiving the order.

    "Okay, stop making trouble. This is other people's territory. People under the eaves have to bow their heads. Give them all the guns!" said the middle-aged man.  It can be seen that he is very prestigious among this group of people. As soon as he spoke, the soldiers of the Qingma Army immediately stopped saying anything more.

    Wang Wei handed over the guns honestly, and after taking away daggers and other murder weapons from their bodies, Wang Wei let them in.  However, except for the middle-aged man, everyone else was taken to the auditorium of the military station to stay.  Only the middle-aged man was taken to Wang Yuze's office.

    After seeing Wang Yuze, the middle-aged man was slightly surprised.  Perhaps Wang Yuze was shocked that he could become the captain of a company at such a young age!  As an old opponent of the Western Sichuan Army, he naturally knows everything about the organization of the Western Sichuan Army.  A company of the Western Sichuan Army has about two hundred people.  Let a kid who is obviously not yet twenty years old be commanded by a company. I really don't know if the senior leaders of the Western Sichuan Army are rusty in the head.

    "I am Wang Long, the commander of the third company. I wonder who you are?" Wang Yuze asked, looking at the middle-aged man.

    ¡°I, Ma Yuntao, am just an aide of Marshal Ma Haiyan!¡± said the middle-aged man Ma Yuntao.

    "Oh? Then why did Mr. Ma come to our military station?" Wang Yuze asked after the two parties sat down respectively.

    "Captain Wang, a wise man doesn't speak secretly. Our eldest young master was captured by your army. There must be some misunderstanding. Our Qingma Army and the Western Sichuan Army have always been in harmony with each other. Please also ask Captain Wang to general the eldest young master."  Give it back to us!" Ma Yuntao looked at Wang Yuze and said.

    "Haha, Mr. Ma is joking. How could the eldest young master of your Qingma Army be in the hands of our Western Sichuan Army? Mentor, a month ago, a group of reckless horse bandits attacked our military station, but we were defeated and could not catch him.  The young master of your Qingma Army will not become a horse bandit, right?" Wang Yuze said sarcastically.

    "Company Commander Wang, this is just because our eldest young master is naughty by nature. Anyway, it has not caused you much loss. Please return the eldest young master to us. We, the Qingma Army, will be very grateful!" Ma Yuntao said with his hands clasped in fists.  .

    "Haha, what if we don't pay it back?" Wang Yuze said with squinted eyes.

    "Hmph! If Captain Wang refuses to drink wine as a penalty, then just wait until my Qingma Army destroys this small military station of yours!" Ma Yuntao said contemptuously.
