- The Ma's Army, which stretches across the northwest, had previously gathered tens of thousands of troops in Maqin with an astonishing momentum. However, in less than a day, except for Ma Guoliang who fled with thousands of defeated soldiers and Ma Haiyan who evacuated with the last few remaining troops of the Qing Ma Army, All disappeared.
"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff! Liu Zhiye is reporting!" A burly middle-aged soldier came to Wang Yuze and Cai Yun. He was none other than Liu Zhiye, the brigade commander of the Fourth Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army. The emergence of the fourth brigade became the last straw that broke the Ma's army and sealed the victory of this battle.
"Haha, okay! Brigadier Liu, you showed up in time! Otherwise we wouldn't have won so easily!" Wang Yuze said excitedly. If the fourth brigade had not arrived, with the strength of the 10th and 11th brigades, even if they could withstand the Ma Jiajun's attack, it would still be very difficult to defeat them.
"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff! Guo Defu reports. In addition, the Majia Army and Qingma Army in Hezhou have fled one after another. Do we want to pursue them?" A colonel in his thirties asked for instructions.
"What do you think, Marshal?" Cai Yun did not make a decision immediately.
"Pursue! Pursue the Hezhou Majia Army. The Qingma Army is finished, but the Hezhou Majia Army still has more than 20,000 troops in the Hezhou area, its laochao. Including those who fled back, there are a full 30,000 people. If we don't kill them Elimination is also a great threat to us!" Wang Yuze said.
"Well! Let's do it! Liu Zhiye and Guo Defu listen to the order! Immediately lead the troops of the fourth brigade to pursue the Ma Jiajun in Hezhou and eliminate as many of their effective forces as possible. After arriving in Hezhou, pay attention to defense and wait for reinforcements!" Cai Yun ordered .
"Yes, Chief of Staff! The Fourth Brigade promises to complete the mission!" Liu Zhiye and Guo Defu saluted Wang Yuze and Cai Yun and immediately went down to carry out the order. Soon, thousands of troops from the Fourth Brigade were chasing north.
At this moment, on the battlefield north of Maqin City, troops from the 10th and 11th Brigades of the Western Sichuan Army were counting prisoners and cleaning the battlefield. Although this battle was a great victory, the losses of the Western Sichuan Army were not small. However, the final battle losses will only be known after detailed statistics.
It was not until night that Wang Yuze and Cai Yun obtained accurate battle losses. In today's battle, the 10th Brigade suffered 327 casualties, 106 serious injuries, and 541 minor injuries. It almost lost the combat effectiveness of a battalion. The 11th Brigade suffered greater losses, with 730 killed and 290 seriously injured. There were relatively few minor injuries, only more than 200, and the combat effectiveness of more than a battalion was lost.
However, compared with the results achieved, this loss seems insignificant. Before the war, the Ma's Army had a total strength of 40,000, but now, only 7,000 or 8,000 had escaped, and the remaining 30,000 or so were either captured or had died on the battlefield. Among them, more than 18,000 were captured intact and intact, which was more than those killed or wounded in battle.
"Haha, what a great victory! Chief of Staff, you have captured so many people. These people are the most elite cavalry!" Wang Yuze was very happy.
"Yes! I think we can form another cavalry brigade. But who will be sent as the brigade commander?" Cai Yun said with a smile.
"Isn't there a suitable person already? The commander of the 11th Brigade is the eldest son of the Qingma Army, and now the eldest son of the Ningma Army is also in our hands. If we can get him to join us, then the Ningma Army Then it can be used by us!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.
"Yes, I have this idea too. Then let's meet Ma Fulu and see what choice he, the young master of the Ningma Army, will make!" Cai Yun then ordered the guards to bring Ma Fulu in.
When Ma Fulu was brought in front of Wang Yuze and Cai Yun, he looked a little embarrassed. His hand was injured and his arm was stabbed, but it was bandaged. Two guards from the Western Sichuan Army were watching over him to prevent him from doing anything detrimental to Wang Yuze and Cai Yun.
"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff!" At this time, Ma Qi also came.
"Brother Ma, thank you for your hard work. The 11th Brigade suffered a lot of losses this time, and the prisoners captured will be given priority to replenish you!" Wang Yuze said.
"Thank you, Marshal!" Ma Qi said excitedly. With this great victory, it can be foreseen that the Western Sichuan Army will destroy the Ma Jiajun soon.
"Bah! Traitor!" At this time, Ma Fulu cursed bitterly.
"Brother Shou, he is a hero who knows the current affairs! Now the Qing Dynasty is in decline, and the Ma family's army is about to fail. Good birds choose trees to roost. I am just trying to leave a way out for the Ma family. How can I be considered a traitor? ? Brother Shou San, why not join the Western Sichuan Army like me! The Western Sichuan Army is China's hope and the best destination for us soldiers!" Ma Qi was not angry, but persuaded with a smile, Shousan is Ma Fulu's character. He knows WangZe and Cai Yun wanted to persuade Ma Fulu.
"Hmph! It's impossible for me to betray Ma Jiajun and join you rebels!" Ma Fulu said sternly.
"General Ma, to be honest, do you think there is really hope for the Qing Dynasty?" Wang Yuze asked sincerely.
Ma Fulu did not answer. In fact, he had no hope for the Manchus. Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty still controls most of China, it is actually declining. As for the Western Sichuan Army, it is a tiger that has been dormant for more than ten years, and now, the tiger has begun to show its claws again. However, unfortunately, their Ma Jiajun became the first target of western Sichuan.
"General Ma must also know that in the battle between Western Sichuan and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I, Western Sichuan, will definitely win in the end. Let me ask another question. I believe General Ma also felt very deeply about today's battle. With the powerful firepower of our Western Sichuan Army, Can your Ma Jiajun resist it? Besides, now your Ma Jiajun has lost most of its combat strength, but our Western Sichuan Army is getting stronger with each war. Even if Western Sichuan does not send new troops here, with the troops we have now, It is enough to destroy your Ma Jiajun! So, is General Ma willing to see tens of thousands of Ma Jiajun die on the battlefield?" Wang Yuze continued.
Ma Fulu was silent. Today's battle really shocked him. The tens of thousands of Ma Jiajun were unable to withstand the powerful firepower of the Western Sichuan Army. If this continues, Ma Jiajun will not be a match for the Western Sichuan Army at all. Perhaps, Ma Jiajun could choose to leave, such as entering the area controlled by the Qing court. However, is it so easy to give up the foundation that Ma Jiajun has established in Gansu and Qinghai for decades?
"General Ma, during this battle, we captured many Ma Jiajun soldiers. Especially the soldiers of your Ningma Army, which are enough to form a new brigade. I have discussed with the young marshal to form the 12th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army , if you are willing, you will be the brigadier general of this brigade!" Cai Yun also said.
"Huh?" Ma Fulu looked at Cai Yun and Wang Yuze in shock. Unexpectedly, they directly offered a brigade commander's chip.
Ma Fulu is also very familiar with the organizational structure of the Western Sichuan Army, and he also knows the status of a brigade commander in the Western Sichuan Army. Frankly speaking, this is already very good treatment, much better than them going against the Western Sichuan Army and being wiped out in the end.
"Brother Shou, why are you hesitating? There is no store like this after passing this village! Western Sichuan is at its peak, joining the Western Sichuan Army will not bury your talents!" Ma Qi also advised from the side.
"If I join the Western Sichuan Army, what will happen to my Ningma Army?" Ma Fulu asked. Under the threats and inducements of the Western Sichuan Army, he still wavered.
"The Ningma Army will be disbanded, and the Western Sichuan Army will not allow separatist forces to appear in the army. However, since your Ningma Army still has a lot of soldiers, you can give the Ningma Army another brigade. The position of brigade commander can be given to you. Recommended, but the deputy brigade commander must be assigned by us. In addition, after the war, the middle and low-level officers of the Ningma Army must enter the military academy for rotational training!" Cai Yun said.
Ma Fulu nodded. The Ma Jiajun's semi-separatist situation would definitely not be allowed in the Western Sichuan Army. The Western Sichuan Army requires absolute control of the army. However, it is already very good to get such a result. At least, the Ningma Army can occupy the establishment of two brigades in western Sichuan. It is already considered a very strong force.
"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff, Ma Fulu's life will be handed over to Western Sichuan from now on!" Ma Fulu said solemnly.
