"How is it possible? How is it possible!" Nishijima Susukyoshi's hands trembled while holding the telescope, and he kept repeating this sentence in his mouth.
The intensive firepower of the guard not only caused heavy losses to the attacking army, but also shocked the generals of the Ri army watching the battle in the rear. They really couldn't believe their eyes.
"The Russian new artillery was used on a large scale." The Chief of Staff of the 2nd Division watched the mortar shells flying from the trenches to high altitude, and then landing vertically on the charge of the Ri Army soldiers.
Zhong, couldn't help but say worriedly.
The world's first real mortar was born during the Russian War. Not long ago, when the 3rd Army of Ri attacked Lushun, it fought fiercely with the Russian army on peripheral fortifications and used excavation of trenches to approach the Russian position dozens of meters.
A Russian artillery captain saw that the distance was too close and it was difficult to use ordinary artillery and machine guns to kill and injure the Ri army, and the light weapons were even less powerful.
With a sudden inspiration, an old naval gun was installed on a wheeled gun mount and fired shells at a high elevation angle. This artillery produced by emergency response on the battlefield was the earliest mortar. The Russian army used this new type.
The weapons effectively killed the Ri army in the trench and repelled the Ri army's multiple attacks.
This matter is no longer a secret in the RI army, but Sui Yoshihiro Nishijima did not expect that the 3rd Army's encounter soon fell on him and others. When he saw this scene in front of him, it seemed like the Russian army began to grow.
It is equipped with this small ballistic curved artillery on a scale.
"Your Excellency, the enemy's firepower is too strong. Should I wait for the artillery support to come, or wait until night to launch a sneak attack?" the Chief of Staff advised carefully.
When Nishijima Sushimo came, he was full of energy. He sighed secretly and said softly: "The enemy has built ring fortifications. I really want to attack from other directions to see if all their places are firepower.
They are all so dense.”
"Your Excellency! This is the best place for attack." The Chief of Staff reminded.
Under Liu Zhenming's plan, Liaoyang Reclamation Area has long become a military fortress. The place defended by Zhang Fengzi's 1st Regiment has been slower than other directions, so the ri army chose this direction as the attack as soon as it arrived.
direction.
The other three directions include the 2nd regiment and the 3rd regiment and the 3rd regiment. Among them, the terrain of the terrain of the Yue Yuyang's reserve regiment is the most dangerous.
If the Ri army attacks from other directions, Ergouzi, Wei Shijie and others will use guns to tell these Ri himself: My defensive zone will definitely not be worse than Zhang Qianzi's. ()
Suspicion Nishijima was ready to move and wanted to attack in multiple directions to try it. However, seeing the 4th Infantry Regiment with heavy losses, he finally put down his right hand in the air. Weng Sheng said in a silence:
The message was to call Koide Kesuke to stop the attack and wait until it was dark before we made a decision.”
"Hi!"
Soon, the command to retreat in the ri army began to sound, and as soon as the trumpet sounded, the attacking soldiers who had long been unable to hold on, this time they seemed to have received the amnesty order, and they were pissing back in a hurry, so much more
The soldier didn't even bother to take the gun in his hand and ran away with vague hands.
There is no way. Although they are not afraid of death, they do not want to make meaningless charges - they only see their own people falling down continuously. Although the enemy trench is close to them, it is like the moon in the well and the flowers in the mirror.
Out of reach.
"Bah!" Zhang Qianzi was not satisfied with spitting thick phlegm and muttered: "The Eastern Japanese are just like this, and they dare to claim to be a terrifying road roller."
The title of terror road roller was originally the name of the Russian army, but Dashanyan humiliated the Russians with a series of victories, allowing the Russian army, who was called the Yellow Monkey before the war, to replace the Russian army, and win the
The honorable title of terrifying road roller.
The ri military newspapers made a big splash, and even some Chinese people followed suit, what yellow people defeated white people for the first time, what Eastern nations defeated Western nations on the battlefield for the first time, and what victory was achieved by themselves.
Same.
Liu Zhenming glanced at Zhang Qianzi and said in a deep voice: "Don't underestimate Ri himself, we just take advantage of guns and fortifications. Even if the world's strongest army Germans attack, they will return in a defeat. The quality of the Ri army
They are still very strong. They are still able to continue attacking despite such great losses. There are few troops in the world who can do it."
Zhang Crazy looked at the corpses in front of the position, all of whom were soldiers falling downwards. His face became much more serious and nodded, "If you want to be brave, these ***s are really much more brave than the British army.
ah."
"It's good that you can think like this, madman, you're following my old brother." Liu Zhenming raised his head, looked ahead, and whispered: "I'm very happy to see the old brothers who used to grow up slowly.
Thank you, now we are seeking to survive in the cracks, if we are not careful, we will lose all the money. We can’t afford to lose.”
After remembering for a moment, Liu Zhenming calmed down and patted Zhang Crazy on the shoulder, and smiled and said, "I'll go to other positions to see, you command your brothers to prevent the Ri army from attacking again."
For a moment, Zhang Fengzi felt that the burden on his shoulders was much heavier. He had never had to think too much or think too much. He would just fight as Liu Zhenming asked him to hit him.
But as the team grew bigger, Zhang Fengzi already felt that Liu Zhenming hoped that he could stand alone, rather than just being a vocal tube.
Zhang Crazy stood there for a while, and looked at Liu Zhenming's back slightly bent away. He suddenly felt how much pressure was on Liu Zhenming.
Liu Zhenming led his personal soldiers and rode his horse to patrol the various defensive positions. Although the Ri army has not attacked from other places, Liu Zhenming believes that after the 2nd Division faces a head-on blow, he will definitely think of some evil ideas.
Every position has the possibility of being attacked.
In the temporary command of the 2nd Division, Susan Yoshihiro Nishima had summoned the generals of the Ri army to discuss the next battle.
After the first attack, all the generals of the 2nd Division were gone. The 2nd Division had four infantry regiments, namely the 4th, 16th, 29th, and 30th Infantry regiments.
, and there are also division-level cavalry corps, artillery corps, etc.
The captains of the Ri Army were standing with their heads down, among which the captain of the artillery corps and the 4th Infantry corps, Keisuke Koide.
The first one caused the artillery corps to be almost crippled, and the second one caused the 4th Infantry corps to lose more than half of the troops. Both of them were as sad as if their parents had died.
Suspicion Nishijima's eyes kept spinning around the two of them. After a long time, he sighed and said, "This offensive suffered heavy losses. It was not your command mistake, but my mistake. I underestimated the enemy too much.
The Chinese military strategy says that knowing oneself and enemy will never be defeated. We know too little about Liu Ziqian and too little about the previous place, so we suffer such great losses. The warriors of those empires lost their lives because of my Nishijima Suspicion.
Yes, I apologize to you!”
After Nishijima Susakaya finished speaking, he lowered his head deeply.
His statement made the generals in a hurry and took the mistakes one by one.
Nishijima Suspicion said sincerely: "You guys, after this battle, I will definitely apologize to the commander, but now we must capture the place ahead. The commander has sent a telegram, the first field battle
The support of the artillery brigade will arrive the day after tomorrow, and within these two days, we cannot sit here and rest. We must attack, attack, and continue to attack. The enemy does not have much depth. Every step we move forward is to further advance to victory.
.”
"Your Excellency the Division Commander is right. Our troops exceed the enemy's strength and can launch continuous attacks to exhaust the enemy. When they relax, it is the moment we break through the position."
A jing light burst out in Susukyoshi Nishima's eyes and said, "However, the enemy's artillery fire has overwhelming advantages. The enemy has machine guns and grenades and other weapons with very strong firepower. In order to reduce unnecessary casualties, I plan to target the enemy's positions.
Carry out a night attack.”
The Japanese generals were not very surprised. According to the current situation, night battles are the best choice for Ri himself.
"Sir Commander, are we going to continue to attack from this direction?" An officer asked.
Susukyoshi Nishijima shook his head, pointed to the topographic map of the Liaoyang Reclamation Area that had been surveyed and mapped, and said: "Tonight, our attack direction is here."
The generals hurriedly looked at it, and some were thinking about it, and some were puzzled. They asked, "Here? The terrain here is more steep than other places, so why choose here?
”
A smile appeared on Nishijima Sumitomo's face and said, "It is precisely because of the steepness that it is unexpected that we have to draw jing soldiers to form a suicide squad. Tonight, we are not only attacking from this direction, but attacking from all directions. Only
Only by making the enemy unable to understand the truth can we cover up our intention to attack.”
After dinner, Liu Zhenming saw that the Ri army had no sign of attacking, and he also thought about whether he should go out to attack at night.
Don’t forget that from the hinterland of the reclamation area, there is an authentic tunnel leading directly to the mass grave outside. Liu Zhenming can send a surprise attack and launch a sudden attack without any expectations or precautions.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Liu Zhenming still suppressed this idea. It has not yet reached the point of using this secret passage. It is just about to be used on the blade. This secret passage is mainly used to deal with the enemy.
Artillery.
The artillery of the 2nd Division was crippled by its own side and did not dare to send it again. There was no need to give this trump card for just a few remaining cannons.
Since the idea of sneak attacks has been dispelled, we must prevent the sneak attacks of the Ri army. Everyone knows that the Ri army is an army that is good at sneak attacks. Every time they start a war, they almost always start with sneak attacks. Liu Zhenming issued an enhanced defense.
The order allowed each army to leave at least half of its troops in the front trenches, and other resting personnel were also resting in the trenches, rear trenches and other places, so that once there was an enemy situation, they could support quickly.
