The Japanese staff were still very efficient. The Japanese staff made the decision to launch a surprise attack on Liaoyang that day and started working on it. Immediately, they chose to land in an uninhabited place far away from Yingkou, and then bypassed Yingkou.
, the troops pointed directly at Liaoyang.
Yingkou was also reoccupied by the Russians. It was inside the Bohai Bay and was not suitable for the Japanese to choose as a large-scale landing site. Once the Japanese army landed here, the Russian army who got the news would be able to carry out heavy operations along the long Bohai Sea.
check.
Of course, there is no problem in landing a surprise force here. As long as the Japanese army, which has penetrated deep into the heart of the Russian army, can hold on to the spirit of killing oneself and be ready to destroy everyone, it will be able to achieve fruitful results.
Obviously, Nogi Hidenori is not good in other aspects, but this person is a fervent believer in the Bushido tradition, and there is no problem with loyalty and willingness to sacrifice.
The Japanese General Staff sent a secret telegram to Rihachiro Sakamoto, asking him to be prepared to respond to the Nogi Nogi Nogi Guards Division.
Sakamoto Rihachiro passed this news to Liu Zhenming. Liu Zhenming also hoped to see Nogi Nogi's tribe appear around Liaoyang. The two sides hit it off immediately. Liu Zhenming immediately led one or two soldiers and sneaked to the Yingkou line to prepare for the attack together with Sakamoto Rihachiro.
Congratulations to Nogi Nogi Nogi for your visit.
Three days later, Liu Zhenming and Ban Zhichao appeared on a desolate coastline.
At this time, there were outsiders present. Ban Zhichao had already restored his arrogant expression, while Liu Zhenming stood slightly on his side.
Liu Zhenming watched the sea water lapping at the coast from time to time, stirring up waves. Thinking that such a great river and mountain was trampled by the Japanese and Russian troops at will, he felt a faint pain in his heart. He asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Ban, I don't know
How many people will Mr. Nogi lead to land here? If there are too many people, they will be easily discovered by the Russians on the way to Liaoyang."
Ban Zhichao smiled and replied: "General Nogi personally led a brigade of troops to land here."
In Japan, a Category A division has the strength of two brigades, and each infantry brigade has about 7,000 troops.
"Seven thousand people are here, although the number is a bit large. However, the Russian army is still arrogant and patrols are not very careful. As long as you are careful, you can still go to Liaoyang without being discovered." Liu Zhenming nodded slightly.
He wanted to wait until Nogi Nogori arrived in the Liaoyang area before leaking the news to the Russian army.
When the time comes, both sides will fight to the death, and he and Wu Peifu will be able to profit from it.
"Sir, they are coming!" Ban Zhichao raised his hand and pointed, and saw four merchant ships appearing on the sea level, heading here quickly.
Four merchant ships carried about 7,000 people, including guns and ammunition. That was not just a crowd. When they first landed ashore, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army would be sharply reduced by several levels. I have to say that the Japanese were brave enough.
.If the Russians discovered their traces and launched a sneak attack when they landed, the Japanese army would surely suffer heavy losses.
In fact, the Japanese made a lot of preparations for this secret landing. First, Togo Heihachiro led the combined fleet to appear again off the coast of Lushun to bombard the Russian fleet.
Since the last sneak attack, the Russian Pacific Fleet has left the port from time to time to mine and conduct reconnaissance, but most of the time, it has stayed in the port and not engaged in a decisive battle with the Japanese combined fleet.
Makarov also had no choice but to do this. On the one hand, the Russian Pacific Fleet was indeed not as strong as the Japanese Combined Fleet. On the other hand, he was also waiting for the arrival of the Russian European Fleet.
Makarov only needs to lead his fleet out from time to time to show that he can still move along the Liaodong coast and show that if the Japanese army wants to land in this area, it will be attacked by its fleet.
Not long after, four merchant ships docked not far from the coast, and then countless small boats were lowered from above. One small boat loaded with dozens of soldiers came over first.
Seeing this, Ban Zhichao immediately led everyone to greet him.
What came out of the boat was a Japanese lieutenant commander, who waded ashore. He was a little depressed. It was obvious that he was uncomfortable being squeezed in the cabin for a long time.
As soon as Lieutenant Commander came ashore, he first looked at Ban Zhichao with admiration, then performed a military salute and said seriously: "Colonel Sakamoto, how is the situation around you? Are the Russians aware? Your Excellency, the division commander, is waiting on the boat.
"
Ban Zhichao has now become a hero in the Japanese army. Not to mention that he led the people to assassinate Alek, recaptured the horse bandits and turned the hinterland of the Russian army upside down. He just lost one person in the war.
With just one eye and two little fingers, he is worthy of respect from all Japanese people.
Ban Zhichao returned a military salute and said loudly: "The Russians have found nothing. Let the army land as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will be easily discovered by the Russians."
With a wave of his hand, the sergeant sent dozens of soldiers who had just landed to disperse in all directions to investigate. Then, he waved the red flag in his hand.
After Nogi Nogi over there saw it, he ordered other people to start logging in.
For a time, the entire coastline was densely covered with small boats, carrying countless soldiers on them.
When Liu Zhenming saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a pity. If these Japanese people were not still useful, if they set up an ambush here, they would definitely be able to eliminate 30% of them.
"Quick, quick!"
After groups of Japanese soldiers came ashore, no one made a sound, only the sound of rapid footsteps. They ran past Liu Zhenming and others, and then regardless of fatigue, they quickly alerted the surroundings. This quality alone
, Liu Zhenming's expression became serious. Just looking at his movements and momentum, he knew that he was a strong force.
A moment later, a arrogant Japanese man got off a larger boat. This man was wearing a command knife, his face was unruly, and he exuded a fierce aura.
When Liu Zhenming saw this person, he guessed his identity. This person should be Nogi Nogi Nogi.
It is said that this person believes in the spirit of Bushido and is good at fighting hard battles. In his eyes, soldiers are just expendable numbers. As long as he can win, even his relatives will not hesitate to let them fight on the battlefield.
Go to death.
As soon as Nogi Nogi landed ashore, he shook off the seawater on his body. The cold sea water did not extinguish the fire in his heart. In Nogi Nogi's view, as long as he landed here, the matter would be half successful.
"Let the soldiers change into dry clothes!" Nogi Nogi raised his hand with high spirits and issued his first order to set foot on this land.
"Hey!" After receiving the order, an officer turned around and walked away. Soon, the entire coast was full of naked Japanese people who quickly changed out of their wet clothes.
They took off their wet military uniforms and put on clothes that Chinese people of this era usually wore.
Only then did Ban Zhichao find the opportunity and stepped forward to meet Nogi Nogi.
Nogi Nogi looked at him with admiration, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sakamoto-kun, you did a very good job in China."
Sakamoto Rihachiro said modestly, then pointed at Liu Zhenming and introduced: "Your Excellency, this is Your Excellency Liu Ziqian who has worked hard for our Japanese Empire. Without his help, we would not have achieved such great results."
"Very good, Mr. Liu, when the war is over, our Japanese Empire will definitely reward you heavily!" Nogi Nogi then turned his attention to Liu Zhenming, who was standing aside.
Liu Zhenming lowered his head slightly and said with a smile: "Thank you for your compliment. It is an honor for me to be loyal to the Japanese Empire."
"Can you speak Japanese?" Nogi Nogi asked slightly surprised. It is really rare for Chinese people to be able to speak Japanese fluently.
Liu Zhenming replied humbly: "I have admired Japanese culture since I was a child and worked hard to learn your country's etiquette and culture."
He once told Wu Peifu that spies are gods who pretend to be humans and ghosts.
Nowadays, Liu Zhenming is working hard to disguise himself as a flattering traitor.
Nogi Nogi was very satisfied with Liu Zhenming, nodded approvingly, and said with a smile: "Very little, you stay with me for the time being. When Liaoyang is captured, I will ask you to be the master of Liaoyang! Now, you
Lead the way, let us go and destroy those Russians who don't know the heights of the earth."
"Hey Yi!" Liu Zhenming, who lowered his head, flashed a cold light in his eyes, and thought to himself, those who don't know whether to live or die, let you be arrogant for a while, and then you will know that those who don't know what the world is, are not only Russians, but also
