In the Governor's Mansion of Zhili, Yuan Shikai was sitting and eating. At the table, stood Zhao Bingjun, the General Office of the Tianjin Patrol.
After Yuan Shikai took a sip of the soup, he put down his spoon and asked unhurriedly: "How is the situation at Black Land Company?"
Zhao Bingjun quickly and respectfully replied: "I have already leaked the news according to the wishes of the Governor."
"Oh, what's going on with them?" Yuan Shikai asked casually while wiping the corners of his mouth.
Zhao Bingjun smiled and said: "I heard that he is fleeing Zhili and Tianjin."
"Yes!" Yuan Shikai nodded with satisfaction and said softly: "Prince Gong is urging you urgently, and the young prince is coming to Tianjin. We can't delay this matter for too long. We will start sealing the Black Land Company tomorrow.
With assets in various places, it is best to capture a group of people, so that Prince Gong can have an explanation."
"I humbly accept my order!" Zhao Bingjun bowed and replied with understanding.
Yuan Shikai waved his hand gently, and Zhao Bingjun resigned.
Yuan Shikai didn't know that rumors were spreading in the suburbs of Tianjin at this time, and had a tendency to spread to other parts of Zhili.
"Did you know? The court has to share the silver again."
"What, a straight bitch is a thief, it's hard to live."
"Well, in this world, we are not only bullied by foreigners, but also bullied by the imperial officials."
"Yes, you don't know. Last time I saw a 17th-grade county magistrate traveling, there were more than ten people clearing the way in front of him, and eight sedans were waiting on him. Why didn't he go to these people to collect silver, and he also had to collect money from us Kuhaha
Doing it."
"Damn it, I just won't deal with this imperial court. Let's see what those dog officials can do to me."
"Hey, how are you? I still remember that Xiao Zheng, who resisted taxes last time, was arrested by the government and has not been released yet. I heard that he went crazy in prison. We ordinary people should just accept our fate."
"Resign yourself to your fate. How can you accept your fate? They won't let us live."
Rumors began to spread in various places, but local governments did not officially formalize the issue, let alone take effective measures to stop these rumors. In the end, these rumors became more and more outrageous. Why did the government want to select strong men to die in the Northeast? Why did everyone
Everyone, old and young, women and children, must pay a head tax of three taels of silver.
In less than a day, people in all parts of Zhili were in panic. Especially in the vast rural areas where the government's control was weak, the people were furious and waiting for a leader to rise up and lead everyone to do it.
The intelligence fed back from various places shocked Han Qiaoer, the instigator. She really didn't expect that the Qing government had lost people's hearts to such an extent. A random rumor could make people angry. When most people were against
When the court becomes disappointed and angry, then the regime is not far from destruction.
No wonder that after the Wuchang Uprising in later generations, the Qing government collapsed almost overnight, unlike the change of dynasties in history, which happened without experiencing a few decent wars.
Han Qiaoer originally just wanted to put some eye drops on Qing Zhengfu, but when she saw that the matter had become serious, she didn't know how to deal with it. She had no choice but to report the matter to Liu Zhenming and let Liu Zhenming make up his mind.
In the Liaoyang Reclamation Area, the escort army and the Japanese army had fought for two consecutive days. During these two days, the Japanese army did not carry out night attacks, but carried out limited local attacks. They continued to test the firepower layout of the escort army. West Island
Zhu Yi was waiting for support from the field artillery brigade to arrive.
The powerful firepower of the escort made Nishijima realize that without artillery to cooperate with the general attack, the old man would hang himself - his life would be too long.
The six artillery squadrons of the 1st Field Artillery on the 3rd day finally arrived at the 2nd Division offensive position in the early morning of the 3rd day under the constant urging of Nishijima Zhongyi.
Seeing this, Nishijima Sukeyoshi held another combat meeting.
The Chief of Staff of the 2nd Division pointed to a map hanging at the front and said with confidence: "Gentlemen, after two days of constant testing, we have a general understanding of the enemy's layout.
We also have a certain understanding of the firepower deployment here. Not to mention the enemy's artillery unit, it is speculated that the enemy has at least 20 large-caliber field guns and as many as 60 small-caliber artillery. These small guns
The artillery was used separately by them and seemed to be in the hands of the infantry. In addition, the enemy had exposed about thirty machine gun positions, which means that each aromatic group has at least eight machine guns, and grenades are deployed on a large scale.
, There is no doubt that the enemy’s firepower configuration is very powerful. Not to mention the Russian army, even the army of any country today does not have an army with such complete firepower in the long and recent past.”
The chief of staff of the Japanese army first talked about the difficulties at hand. After all the Japanese generals showed worries on their faces, he calmly changed the topic and said: "But we don't need to worry too much. It can be seen that,
The other side is an army that has just been established. The quality of most of the soldiers is not as good as ours. We must use our strengths and avoid weaknesses and give full play to the advantages of our army. I suggest that we should fight at night. In addition, the arrival of the artillery unit is also a way for us to seize the opportunity.
Enemy positions become much easier."
After two days of attack, the Japanese generals had already regarded the escort army as a serious opponent, instead of seeing it as an armed bandit force as before, and they all nodded their heads when they heard this.
Nishijima Sukeyoshi stood up and said: "The chief of staff has already introduced the situation to us. It can be seen that Liu Ziqian is an outstanding commander. We cannot be careless about this person. Our army must continue to work during the day."
The attack is used to paralyze him, while the artillery units
We must formulate a plan to destroy the enemy's important firepower points in the shortest possible time to clear the way for our general offensive. Gentlemen, success or failure depends on this. Your Excellency, the Commander, is already very dissatisfied with our 2nd Division.
If you cannot win this battle, you should commit suicide to thank the world."
"Hey Yi!" All the Japanese generals bowed their heads deeply.
In the staff room of the reclamation area, Liu Zhenming leaned on his chair and closed his eyes to rest. In fact, he had entered the system's training base.
The last Japanese night attack made Liu Zhenming realize that there are still certain flaws in the trench defense system, especially when the quality of his own soldiers is not strong. Once the enemy is in close combat, the casualties will increase greatly.
If Liu Zhenming's thoughts were known to Nishidao Suyi, he would probably be so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. In Nishidao Suyi's view, the fortifications in the reclamation area were so complete that he would have been ashamed of himself for a long time. However, Liu Zhenming
If he is not satisfied, he will vomit three liters of blood.
Liu Zhenming has been studying defense systems for the past two days, from the circular defense circle of the later US military to some ancient defense formations, etc. He wants to come up with a defensive system that is sharper than the trench system.
Not to mention. After learning from others' strengths, Liu Zhenming's brain has slowly formed the prototype of a defense system. This defense system is not just a passive system waiting for others to attack, but a system that lures the enemy in depth.
A defense system that can be used both offensively and defensively to eliminate enemy troops within one's own formation.
In the Three Kingdoms scene, Zhuge Liang stood on a high platform, waving the fan in his hand with a calm expression. Liu Zhenming stood behind him with bright eyes, watching the Shu and Wei armies fighting not far away.
Zhuge Liang shouted softly: "Four are righteous. Four are strange. The cavalry is there! Go to support Tianzhi."
Following the order, Zhao Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately led five thousand cavalry and left quickly.
Yes, this formation is Zhuge Liang's Eight Formation Diagram. Zhuge Liang's Eight Formation Diagram is an innovative formation pattern based on the ancient Eight Formations. Zhuge Liang claimed that "the eight formations are completed and we will practice from now on. We will never be defeated."
Of course, the real Eight Formation Diagram is not as heaven-defying as recorded in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. A pile of rocks can send out a murderous aura soaring into the sky. Finally, as soon as Commander Lu Xun led his troops in, a strong wind blew up, and in an instant, sand and rocks were flying, covering the sky.
The land can serve as 100,000 elite soldiers. This is too much nonsense.
Liu Zhenming is now standing in the middle position of the Eight Formation Diagram. He has witnessed Zhuge Liang using it with his own eyes. The Eight Formation Diagram is actually a means of allocating and dispatching troops.
The so-called sky, earth, wind, cloud, dragon, tiger, snake, and bird are actually the flags of eight troops arranged in different directions. The entire army can be divided into eight squads, each of which is responsible for different combat tasks and interacts with each other.
Cooperation. Such a formation can allow soldiers to work and relax, and each combat unit can perform its duties and give full play to its own advantages, saving manpower and material resources to the greatest extent.
After all, the Eight Formation Diagram is actually a means of deploying and dispatching troops, including defense, offense, marching, surprise attack and other military combat ideas. Although it is not as awesome as in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is a very good set of military operations.
Great overall defense system.
Just like the T-shaped formation in naval battles, the configuration of the aircraft carrier fleet is the same. If used well, it can achieve effective defensive and offensive purposes.
Zhuge Liang's use of this formation to deal with the Wei army this time opened Liu Zhenming's eyes. He saw that under his command, the Shu army could constantly change and adjust at any time according to the enemy's combat direction. The front could be changed to the rear, and the actions
It is very flexible and uses effective troops where it matters most.
Form a formation, deploying troops on the flanks and in the rear. When one place is attacked, the adjacent left and right center formations can automatically serve as two wings to flank the invading enemy.
In addition, the use of various arms made Liu Zhenming even more amazed. Under the current situation, Zhuge Liang has brought the coordinated operations between the various arms to the fullest extent.
The most active and mobile cavalry in the formation are the cavalry. Zhuge Liang gives them a wide range of tasks such as flanking, feinting, ambush, cutting off the enemy's food routes, blocking, night attacks, tail attacks, marching, camping, and vigilance during formation.
Under normal circumstances, they are arranged in two rows and placed behind the large square formation. Just like Zhao Yun's troops were used by Zhuge Liang to attack from the side. The crossbowmen in the formation, with the cooperation and protection of other troops, exerted their superiority over long distances.
Her advantage is that chariot soldiers use vehicles to set up obstacles, delay and separate the enemy's impact and maneuvers, provide cover and protection against internal infantry, crossbows, and cavalry, and enhance the stability of defense.
What it means to be a famous general is to maximize the effectiveness of the troops you have under limited circumstances. Zhuge Liang has already done this, and Liu Zhenming is moving in this direction at this time.
The cavalry, crossbowmen, chariot troops, infantry, etc., in Liu Zhenming's eyes, have become modern armies. Of course, Liu Zhenming is not stupid enough to completely copy the long-lost eight formation diagram.
It is based on learning from other modern defensive formations, taking into account the characteristics of modern weapons and modern armies, constantly mixing and deducing, and finally forming a new defense system.
