Originally, Sheng Shicai wanted to buy more, but Sun Dianying's army opposite said that machine guns could only be sold so many times. Pistols and rifles were still a bit more abundant. Sheng Shicai felt that Sun Dianying's army was guarding against him, so he had to give up.

The group had received orders before, and they were priced clearly on whatever they could be sold. For example, the official and Czech modifications were absolutely not allowed. However, the old Czech style and flower machinery were on the list that could be sold at high prices. The Czech light machine guns replaced by this group were only twelve, and there would be no more.

There seem to be very few light machine guns in a regiment, but this regiment recruits local cavalry in Qinghai, and sabers and rifles are enough. Light machine guns are still a bit heavy for cavalry. If they have automatic weapons, people still prefer to use machinery and imitation Somi submachine guns that were later replaced.

Sun Dianying was not deliberately guarding against these thousands of defeated soldiers. Sheng Shicai's current strength could be eaten immediately as long as Sun Dianying or the principal of Nanjing had an order.

However, whether the principal or Sun Dianying or the principal of the country had to consider before annexing others, it was that was whether there were any benefits. Who would fight the battle without benefits? Now that the Shengshicai division can not be swallowed up, most of these people are loyalists of Shengshicai, and it is unlikely that they really subdue Sun Dianying or the Nanjing principal. It seems that this is a waste of bullets.

Of course, according to what Sun Dianying had thought before, as long as Shengshicai's troops put down their weapons and entered the lower level of Qinghai, they could still be reorganized. As for the senior management of Shengshicai's troops, how could you really settle down in these people? But they were not fooled.

Both sides took the needs, and at night they almost had a small party. In addition to twelve Czech light machine guns, Shengshicai Department brought in fifty flower mechanisms. The 20,000 nine-mm pistol bullets given by Sun Dianying, the slip-headed pistol bullet finally became useful.

The next day, Shengshicai's troops, who had slightly recovered their vitality, decided to go north to Hami and then go east to Gansu.

Sheng Shicai's troops, who were originally chased by Tsarist Russians, were desperately hit by the border of Xinjiang and Qinghai. Sheng Shicai still understood the truth that the cunning rabbit had three holes, but he had no preparation for operating in Xinjiang for many years. When he heard that the main force of the Tsarist Russian Army had not left near Dihua, Sheng Shicai immediately remembered the backup he left in Hami.

Sheng Shicai secretly prepared some money, food, weapons and ammunition in Hami to guard against the Ma family army. It seems that it still needs to be used on the Ma family army - tens of thousands of guns are not opponents of Tsarist Russia, let alone thousands of guns.

Turning around the road north, four days later, Sheng Shicai's remaining troops finally arrived in Hami. However, before entering Hami City, Sheng Shicai's lungs were about to explode. The battalion of people who were originally left behind Hami are now standing outside the city - hundreds of people have been chopped and their heads are hung on wooden sticks on both sides of the road outside the city and let vultures eat.

The battalion commander stationed in Hami is his brother-in-law of Sheng Shicai, so it is a bit of a disaster without looking at it. Sheng Shicai's wife fainted immediately when she saw the tragic scene outside Hami in the carriage.

"Ahhh, the 2345th Brigade, surrounded Hami City for me. I want to see who ate the wolf's heart and swallowed the leopard's courage, and dared to touch me." Sheng Shicai shouted immediately and gave an order.

At this time, Sheng Shicai had already organized his subordinates into five brigades - but the brigade had only a small organization of more than 1,000 people, and one brigade was under two regiments, each regiment had only 800 people and 300 guns.

However, the enemy in front of us should be even weaker. There are only a few thousand families in Hami City at this time, and it can be described as a small place. Hami melons, which are well-known in later generations, are difficult to transport out due to their capacity issues.

Originally, the Tsarist Russian army did not leave the vicinity of Dihua, and even the Tsarist Russians who were not far from Dihua did not station troops. The commander of the Tsarist Russian Xinjiang Expeditionary Force was a little discouraged. He ordered to seize Dihua, so he seized Dihua and then stopped moving.

The Russian Army advisor did not come, but the Tsarist Russian planes came. Although they did not drop bombs, they dropped something more powerful than bombs - leaflets.

Just five days ago, countless snow-covered flyers fell from the sky and fell into Hami City. The flyers were written in four languages: Russian, Mongolian, and Uyghur. The whole content was summed up in one sentence - Shengshicai was defeated, and Tsarist Russia occupied Dihua.

It was already eight days ago that Sheng Shicai was defeated and left Dihua. Although Hami's defenders controlled the Telegraph Bureau and tried their best to conceal the news, they still couldn't hide it this day.

Although Sheng Shicai's brother-in-law quickly sent people to martial law in the streets on the day when Tsarist Russian planes were scattering leaflets and ordered that the Tsarist Russian flyers be kept and those who spread rumors were killed without mercy. However, this made the people of Hami see the weakness of the Shengshicai tribe. If Sheng Shicai was not defeated in Dihua, why would his brother-in-law be so nervous?

On this day, Hami City cut off several heads, but the news that Sheng Shicai was defeated spread through his ears, mouths and even eyes.

The morning after the Tsarist Russians sprinkled their leaflets, a violent outbreak broke out in Hami City. Before dawn, citizens of all ethnic groups in Hami City spontaneously organized themselves to attack Hami's defenders everywhere. This time, they had the intention to make the Hami defenders suffer heavy losses.

The fierce battle lasted for a day. The last hundred men of the Hami defenders could only defend until the Hami County Government and several large houses facing the streets in the city center. Until people found the weapons and ammunition secretly stored by the defenders, the Hami people threw away their sabers and replaced them with a large number of hot weapons. The Hami defenders fired and grenades, which narrowed the defense line again until they collapsed.

Until sunset, the Hami people finally won the victory. The more than 300 defenders in the Shengshicai army in Hami were wiped out, and none of them escaped. Most of these defenders were killed or killed in battle, and the rest were also cut off their heads after they had no ammunition and surrendered.

These heads were hung on the road outside the four walls by the Hami people. According to the Hami people's ideas, when the Tsarist Russians came, we, Hami, would have made a contribution to the city. The only shameful thing is that the defenders finally blew up the facilities of the Telegraph Bureau, and now they can only send people to Dihua to contact the Tsarist Russians.

With Sheng Shicai's order, thousands of people immediately surrounded the small Hami City. In the Battle of Dihua, Ma Chao, who was first promoted to the deputy division commander, now sat back on the position of the regiment commander, rode to Dihua City, and shouted to Dihua City: "Let me know if you have breathing in the city. Since ancient times, you have killed people to pay your life and pay your debts. Now, when you open the city gate, only those who are stained with blood on your hands. If you wait for the army to enter, the man should not run away, and the woman will be in the camp. This is not our ruthlessness, but someone is tired of living."

After Ma Chao finished speaking immediately, he felt that the deterrence might not be enough, so he took out the Tokarev pistol from his waist and fired a shot at the sky as a warning.

It is very common to fire a gun to warn. It is just that the Hami defenders holding guns on the city wall were all Hami people a few days ago, and they were just able to fire the guns in the past few days. When they heard the gunshots, several people immediately couldn't help but shoot at the siege troops of Shengshicai's troops outside the city.

At this time, the leaders of the Hami Uprising Army were still discussing whether to fight or to reconcile.

After more than a dozen gunshots, the wounded finally appeared. The unlucky Ma Chao covered his injured shoulder and looked at the head of Hami City and said viciously: "**! You guys have a habit."

Ma Chao, who was slightly injured, beat the horse back to the team and ordered: "Get me."

In this way, both sides had nothing to do, and they started fighting in a daze, and fought on the other three sides. If we say that the Shengshicai Department had finally trained formally and fought a few battles, the accurate point was that it was much taller than the Hami Rebel Army on the city wall. It was impossible to stand out on the city wall after fighting for more than ten minutes.

At this time, only a few unlucky guys in Shengshicai's army, including Ma Chao, were injured. Although the Hami Rebel Army on the city wall was protected by the city wall, more than 30 casualties were killed or injured.

At this time, the leaders of the Hami Rebel Army had not yet discussed the result, but heard the ping-up outside and asked, "What's going on? What's going on?"

The news I got was not the most eager to get out of fire, but the Shengshicai army outside the city took the lead in fighting. Now there was nothing to talk about. I was secretly happy that the leaders of the rebel army who killed many Shengshicai army finally dragged these people into the water. It was time to go and even think about negotiating with Shengshicai. This negotiation was not to betray them, but of course they didn't want to negotiate but wanted to resist.

Because the fight had already started, the leaders of the Hami rebel army finally agreed to the opinions - then fight.

A leader of the Hami rebel army stood behind the walls at the top of the city and said loudly: "Sheng Shicai, we all know that you were defeated by the Tsarist Russians and even lost the city of Dihua. You will have to pay back the crimes you brought to the people of Xinjiang sooner or later. A few days ago, your brother-in-law paid back part of you, and now it's your turn to pay it back."

Hearing this, Shengshicai was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He said a few times: "Okay, okay, a little Hami dared to make me Shengshicai rebellious. Today I will let them understand how many eyes the Prince of Horse has. Siege me and give me an order and say that after breaking the city, I will take three days off."

It has to be said that Shengshicai troops and the Japanese are still in the thinking mode of entering the Qing army. If they do not violate the city after capturing the city, the combat effectiveness of the troops will never be improved. Just like the Qing army attacking Jiangyin and other places in Yangzhou, they can't be defeated. When they heard that they had taken the city for several days on holiday, they immediately screamed and captured the city. This practice continued until the end of the Qing Dynasty. Some documents in the cities that captured the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom indicated that the Qing army's Eight Banners Green Camp still had such a little combat effectiveness.

Originally, if Shengshicai had strong soldiers, horses, and guns and cannons, he would not have used this method. However, there is no light mortar in Shengshicai's current division, and the cannon is a traditional weapon for siege.
