September 8, 1917.

Zhou Chaowu was observing, and the second division was performing in the autumn exercises.

Accept the results of the training in the past month.

Although the time is pressing, according to Zhou Chaowu's six guidelines for governing the army, it is quite presentable.

Zhou Chaowu was also quite satisfied with such a situation.

"Wu Shuai! Chen Jiongming sent an urgent telegram that Fu Liangzuo led 60,000 Anhui troops and 20,000 troops of Anhui Overseer Ni Sichong, a total of more than 80,000 troops, stationed troops in Huangshan and Xuancheng, and they were about to attack Zhejiang in the near future!

An overseer can already be called handsome.

Therefore, Zhou Chaowu's subordinates began to change their words and changed their names to Wu Shuai!

"It came so fast. Zhou Chaowu muttered to himself.

The Anhui faction wanted to recapture Zhejiang and Shanghai, which he had long expected.

I just didn't expect the action to be so fast.

The regions of the whole country that responded to the revolution were all resolved one by one under Duan Qirui's vertical and horizontal control, and now only Zhejiang and Shanghai remain.

This is a chassis that belongs to the Anhui system, and if someone takes it away, there is naturally no reason not to grab it back.

"Call back the Guangdong Army, make strategic arrangements as soon as possible, and keep an eye on the headquarters of the former Zhejiang Army, if there is a war, our army will do its best to help!"

Zhou Chaowu's face was a little solemn.

This time, the Anhui system dispatched more than 80,000 people, and it was a frontal offensive and defensive battle.

I'm afraid that relying on his second division plus one division of the Cantonese Army will not be enough to contend with!

After thinking about it, he ordered the signal troops to send a telegram to Feng Guozhang in Jiangsu for help!

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and the Anhui system is becoming more and more powerful!

If Shanghai and Zhejiang are recovered, their strength can be freed up, clean up their direct lineage, and dominate the whole country!

Xiao Yiyi, I hope Feng Guozhang can help!

But there can only be hope.

He didn't dare to pin his hopes on this short-sighted, old-fashioned warlord!

I'm afraid it's really going to be a tough battle!

September 13th.

Fu Liangzuo led two group armies, plus an artillery division, to launch an attack on Zhejiang!

Chen Leshan and Tan Tongxian defected and launched an offensive against the Cantonese army together!

This is also to blame Chen Jiongming for being soft-hearted for a while, and he was not willing to shoot the two directly.

The

integration of such a force is to take such a risk.

The Cantonese army suffered heavy losses, less than 10,000 people.

The Xuancheng position completely lost its resistance and Hangzhou was lost.

The Cantonese army could only shrink in Huzhou and defend Baiji Mountain!

But with such a gap in strength, it is already difficult to defend!

"Wu Shuai! Urgent telegram! Chen Leshan and Tan Tongxian's troops defected to the battle! Hangzhou was lost! The Anhui army invaded Zhejiang in large numbers, and the Guangdong army probably won't be able to hold out for long in Baiji Mountain!"

Han Shengtai, the commander of the communications platoon, personally translated the telegram and reported in a panic!

Under this formation, the Cantonese army may not be able to hold out for a few days!

What?

Zhou Chaowu was puzzled, he had ordered Chen Leshan and Tan Tongxian twice, and he was still the former Anhui general, this Chen Jiongming could still give them a chance to rebel!

Ci is not in charge of the soldiers!

If only he had pulled the two out and killed them!

The current situation really put him in a dilemma!

If you really want to go to Baiji Mountain to support, I'm afraid that before you get there, you will already be lost!

But if you don't go to support, the Cantonese army will definitely have no way out!

When the Anhui army recovers the entire territory of Zhejiang, it will be isolated and helpless, and Shanghai, which has only one division, will definitely not be able to keep it!

The situation is far worse than he expected!

"Did Jiangsu reply from there?" Zhou Chaowu's voice was a little heavy.

Originally, he didn't have much hope for his direct lineage, but now in the blink of an eye, it has become the key to Zhou Chaowu's desire to save himself!

"Wu Shuai! I sent three telegrams in five days, but I didn't call back, I'm afraid he didn't want to help us!" Han Shengtai said his guess.

The fact is that the situation is almost the same!

Feng Guozhang is already old and has long lost the heart of hegemony.

The body is not as good as before, and before he dies, he can guarantee his status, and he doesn't want to do anything else.

And in fact, it wasn't just Zhou Chaowu who was begging him for help.

Fu Liangzuo even sent his cronies to visit Feng Guozhang's mansion with a large vase of the Ming Dynasty, hoping to occupy the Zhejiang army and Shanghai together, and divide the territory in half.

But Feng Guozhang also refused.

This road will definitely not work, and Zhou Chaowu will give up decisively.

"You immediately go to Xiangshan Villa and ask to see Mr. Sun Wen to see if you can assign the headquarters of General Deng Qiang of the Second Division of the Guangdong Army to rush from Fujian to the depths of Zhejiang to help!"

Zhou Chaowu kept his composure and gave an order to let Han Shengtai go in person.

After Sun Wen went into the wilderness, she was disheartened and was invited by the representatives of Soviet Russia to live in the Xiangshan villa in the Shanghai Concession, trying to save the country.

Deng Qiang, the former second division of the Guangdong Army, was still stationed in Guangdong, nominally under the command of the Guangdong overseers.

But he has always been Sun Wen's confidant, ready to welcome Sun Wen back to Guangdong at any time.

However, this is also Sun Wen's last armed force, and it is not certain whether she will help.

So Zhou Chaowu still needs to make other plans!

He was left with few options, except defeat.

The best outcome is to find a warlord backer and merge his army into other factions.

But that's the last thing he wants.

Under the crisis, a bold idea sprouted in Zhou Chaowu's heart!
