The officers accompanied Qiao Yu to the school ground, and the armored vehicle was also ready. After the driver entered the armored vehicle, the armored vehicle was quickly started. At the beginning, the speed was very slow, but it became faster and faster. This steel monster
Galloping back and forth on the school grounds.
Although Qiao Yu had seen more ferocious tank clusters in his previous life, he was still very shocked. With the emergence of the internal combustion engine, people's war patterns on land began to undergo earth-shaking changes. The cavalry that had dominated for thousands of years began to be completely eliminated, and
The emergence of this kind of weapon has also turned war into a competition of industrial strength and production capacity.
It can be said that there are no longer situations where a single famous general can reverse the fate of a country. Generals must be attached to the state machine to display their talents.
The shock in the hearts of others was even stronger. The speed of this armored vehicle was not too fast, but it was already comparable to that of the cavalry, especially since it was a machine and would not tire. Shi Yi also stared closely at the armored vehicle. He seemed to be able to
Seeing swarms of cavalry rushing over, they had no choice but to wave their sabers in vain against this steel behemoth, while the machine guns on the armored vehicles could quickly harvest lives.
At the end of the drill, dozens of targets were placed in the distance, and the armored vehicles rushed over. The machine guns on the vehicles spit out a burst of flames, and all the targets were concentrated. Suddenly, it was a mess. The officers felt chills after seeing this place.
!
"Commander, as long as there are hundreds of armored vehicles, I'm afraid those majestic cavalry will have no use!"
"Not necessarily, this armored vehicle is still on flat ground. If the ground is rough, the performance will be greatly reduced. Moreover, it is a new thing after all. Machine failure is inevitable, and the range is only fifty kilometers. In terms of actual combat capabilities, it is still very weak.
, it cannot be equipped on a large scale for the time being, but I would like to remind you here that technological progress is an irreversible trend. This kind of equipment has already appeared on the European battlefield. It is foreseeable that this war will lead to huge progress in weapons after all. We must
We have to keep up with this progress, and if we fall behind, we will be beaten!”
Qiao Yu stared at the thoughtful officers and continued: "Everyone, now Japan is attacking the German army in Qingdao, but I want to remind everyone that Shandong is our Chinese territory. Now Japan and Germany are fighting in Shandong, which is causing harm to the people."
But our compatriots, as soldiers, cannot protect our home and country, that is our shame. Our current strength is not enough to wash away the shame, but we must firmly remember this shame and be brave after knowing our shame!"
At this time, the fighting in Shandong had become more and more intense. The Japanese vanguard troops were completely wiped out by Hun Jianglong. This was a great shame for the Japanese side. A larger landing force was dispatched, led by Yamada Yoshimizu, the commander of the 24th Brigade.
He personally led the troops, landed here from Longkou, opened up a landing ground, and then Japan's main force continued to march towards Shandong.
This time, Hun Jianglong and others did not go head-to-head. The Japanese side was already prepared and sent additional sentries to guard against the enemy. If they fought head-on, there was only a dead end. Therefore, Hun Jianglong changed his combat method and began to focus on harassment, day and night.
Stop, whether the Japanese army is marching or camping, if they are slightly negligent, they will encounter a hail of bullets. Although the firepower is not violent, it is enough to upset the Japanese.
Moreover, many of these bandits were very accurate in their marksmanship. More than twenty sentries were shot and killed. In addition, they also laid mines on traffic thoroughfares or under the cover of trees.
Use mortars to bombard the Japanese, and when the Japanese go to pursue them, they will find nothing.
Under this endless harassment, Japan paid more than a hundred lives, and even worse, the morale of Japanese soldiers declined rapidly. Many of them were veterans who had experienced the Russo-Japanese War. Even if they faced
They are not so depressed about the powerful Russian soldiers...
"Brother, this is a great battle. The little devils have been tortured terribly by us. At least one or two hundred of them died!" At this time, a group of bandit soldiers were eating dog meat in a farmhouse, and they seemed extremely excited.
Hun Jianglong also had mixed feelings at this time. Ever since he arrived in Shandong and started a war with Japan, he seemed to be dreaming. A bandit leader could put on a German military uniform and start a war with another great power. He couldn't help but feel in his heart.
Ask yourself, what is the point of continuing to fight?
Just a few days ago, after they annihilated the Japanese vanguard, the German governor was shocked. He did not think highly of these Chinese mercenaries, but they proved themselves with their own strength, making Germany regard this force as the most important battle force.
Strength, and let them return to Qingdao to help defend Qingdao.
However, Hun Jianglong and others still refused. They already knew the Japanese deployment. The main force of the Japanese army was about to attack the German rear in Qingdao, and a group of soldiers were sent to attack Jinan in order to cut off the German army's supplies. However, Hun Jianglong
Long and others focused their attention on the Japanese army attacking Jinan.
"Jinan is our Chinese territory. If the stubborn Japanese want to occupy Jinan, they must first ask the guys in our hands if they agree! The current court is afraid of the Japanese, but we are not afraid. There is a scar as big as a bowl on the head.
Even at the risk of our lives, we must let the Japanese know that the Chinese are not easy to bully!"
Hun Jianglong made up his mind, and for the first time, the bandits under his command had no objections. Although they didn't know why they did this, they all had a sacred feeling. When they left this family, Hun Jianglong
He deliberately took out two pieces of ocean from his arms and placed them under the Kang mat. Although the owner of the household had escaped, maybe they could still come back. People like him had borrowed someone else's residence, so they should naturally be rewarded.
Gradually, hundreds of bandits were divided into dozens of squads and ambushed on the road to Jinan, preparing to attack the Japanese army. At this time, the main force of the Japanese army was approaching Qingdao step by step.
The morale of the Japanese army was low due to consecutive days of harassment. In order to boost morale, these Japanese officers turned their anger on the local Chinese in Shandong. They believed that the German army in Qingdao would never be so large in number and must be despicable Chinese people.
They attacked them from behind, so these Japanese robbed and killed all the way. All the women's property was looted by the Japanese. Shandong was full of refugees, fleeing in all directions.
There is no doubt that the Japanese have shown their true nature as beasts and committed evil deeds. However, the British, who pride themselves on being civilized, said nothing but joined these Japanese beasts and began to attack the outer positions of Qingdao.
The governor of Qingdao, Meyer Wardeck, assigned nearly 10,000 soldiers to the entire perimeter of Qingdao's defense line. Prince Henry Hill was at the core of this defense line and was the most heavily defended by the German army. There were a total of 1,000 soldiers.
Three hundred soldiers defended, including 1,100 Chinese mercenaries. The Chinese commander was also a bandit leader named Liu Jinhu. This man was tall and strong, with good kung fu and superb marksmanship.
These Chinese mercenaries were holding their guns tightly, with very solemn expressions on their faces. Japanese planes flew over the position several times. The German side had told them that this was a Japanese reconnaissance plane, and the Japanese attack would begin soon.
.
Liu Jinlong continued to inspect the position, "Brothers, Hun Jianglong killed hundreds of Japanese Japs a few days ago. We have more people than Hunjiang Dragon, so we have to kill a thousand Japanese to be enough.
Otherwise, if we see Hun Jianglong again, we won’t have room to show our dignity!”
"Boss, I think you're going to kill 10,000 of them. Those little devils are too small. Ten of them can't equal one man! If you kill too many, we'll lose it!" After one of the little bosses finished speaking,
Everyone laughed together, and for a moment the war seemed to have disappeared temporarily...
On September 27th, the Japanese army began to bombard the position. The defenders also did not show weakness and immediately fired back. The artillery came and went, shaking the earth. Although these bandits have been through life and death for many years,
However, we had never experienced such a large-scale battle, so everyone was a little nervous. Soon the Japanese artillery fire began to weaken. Everyone knew that the Japanese infantry was about to attack, so everyone entered the trenches one after another and prepared all their machine guns and rifles.
, and soon the Japanese were within shooting range.
These Japanese were very experienced. They covered each other and kept approaching the position. Liu Jinlong also held the rifle tightly in his hand, squinted his eyes and began to aim. A gunshot rang out instantly, and a Japanese officer fell to the ground. Then Liu Jinhu fired two more shots.
, two more Japanese had their heads opened.
The morale of the surrounding mercenaries was greatly boosted, and they calmed down one after another. The Japanese were nothing special. They would die just like taking bullets. Therefore, everyone fired fiercely. The first round of the Japanese offensive was completely suppressed, leaving only ten people.
Several corpses were found, and the angry Japanese ordered artillery to pour on the position again. After twenty minutes of shelling, the position was severely damaged, and many mercenaries were killed. However, everyone did not have any fear, but became more tenacious.
When the Japanese soldiers charged again, the mercenaries began to shoot wildly. The quality of the Japanese army was still far higher than that of these bandits. Under the cover of superior artillery fire, they approached the position little by little, and the distance had been closed.
When they reached forty or fifty meters, the two brothers beside Liu Jinhu had been shot dead by Japanese soldiers.
"The marksmanship of these little devils is really damn good!" Liu Jinhu muttered, and picked up a grenade in his hand. Seeing that the distance was about the same, he immediately threw it out. The grenade drew a beautiful arc and landed just in time.
Among the Japanese soldiers, a Japanese was suddenly blown into the sky and torn apart.
However, relying on their numerical advantage, the Japanese still rushed to the front of the position. They formed small teams one by one and rushed into the position with bayonets drawn. Immediately, several more soldiers were stabbed. These mercenaries had not learned this.
How to use the bayonet, so he was extremely passive, and was stabbed skillfully by the Japanese. The position had reached the most critical moment!
