Unconsciously, in the fortification group of the central fortress, the German army and the Japanese army have been tugging for ten days, the Japanese army has suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and one wing has been disabled. It's not that the Japanese army can't afford to pay this price, but the casualties of the thousand people did not bring an inch, although the casualties of the German army are not clear, but it does not seem to be serious, and the German defense has changed the dogma of the past, and all kinds of damage and strange tricks have come out one after another, two days ago, the Japanese army has approached within 50 meters of the central pillbox, but the other side threw out a bunch of tear gas canisters, and then the German troops with gas masks easily cleaned up the Japanese army's snot and tears A large number of assault troops, and restored the previously lost positions.

In the charge the next day, the Japanese army did not encounter tear gas, but the opponent's hand actually had the same thing as the grenadier they were equipped with, and it was like a large flare gun, which could be fired on the hand, and the grenade shot was still accurate at a distance of two or three hundred meters.

The opponent originally seemed to have some ammunition short, but in the past two days it has also been much more abundant, the machine gun fire has not been able to increase at any point, and even in some sections of the one-kilometer defense line there are more than 150 light and heavy machine guns, this density of firepower is not surpassable by the infantry, although the opponent's position is not too dangerous, but the Japanese infantry artillery can not shoot effectively, if you shoot at close range, in the wilderness there is no shelter will become the target of the opponent's howitzers. The heavy artillery wing attached to the Japanese army was still on the way from Yantai to Jiaozhou, and it would not be possible to reach it without ten days or eight days.

In the end, after five days of hard fighting, the Japanese Yamada Brigade was completely disabled, and the entire 18th Division was also defeated and unable to attack. Seeing that it had been 30 days since the start of the war, the Japanese army had to admit that its attack had failed, but it was originally agreed that if the Chinese Wehrmacht could not complete the takeover of Qingdao within 10 days, the Allies were obliged to continue to clear the German army in the Far East. Although the grizzled Japanese soldiers withdrew from their positions, although they were tired and depressed, they seemed to have some gloating smiles on their faces as they watched the Wehrmacht troops wearing colorful camouflage uniforms and steel helmets enter the position.

"Yamada-kun, do you think the Chinese army can capture these five fortresses in ten days?" Staff Officer Nakamura looked at the retreating Yamada Brigade, he belonged to the staff of the Fifth Division, and it was rare to exchange fire with the Great Powers, these staff officers all sharpened their heads and drilled into it, they all wanted to see the advantages and disadvantages of the Imperial Army and the Germans, after all, Japan was also the younger brother of the Entente, and maybe there was a chance to participate in the war in Europe. However, Staff Officer Nakamura thought about it, and felt that unless all the Germans surrendered with hysteria, it would be impossible to capture these five forts for a month or two. Of course, it would be another matter if the Combined Fleet could enter Jiaozhou Bay for fire support, but how could those guys on Etajima Island fight for consumption with their precious warships and batteries? In addition, there is a mine blockade, and it is not possible to provide support from the sea in half a month.

"The Germans were very well fortified, with great firepower and plenty of ammunition, and I did not find any weakness on the other side's side. If you ask my opinion, then I don't think the other side should try to win in ten days unless they have the courage to sacrifice 100,000 people. The commander of the Yamada Brigade felt that the quick victory in ten days was simply a joke and an insult to the thousands of dead soldiers of the Yamada Brigade, and his very unceremonious answer confirmed Nakamura's thoughts. While the two were whispering about the possible tactics of the Chinese, a soldier came in to report. When the Chinese commander arrived, hoping to take over the command post immediately, Yamada and Nakamura looked at each other and smiled, it seems that the Chinese also know that time is tight, but what is the use of saving such time.

"General Yamada, I am Wu Luzhen, commander of the Eighth Group Army of the Chinese National Defense Forces. This is a copy of the agreement signed between your country and China on the Qingdao issue, and I would like you to read it. A middle-aged officer wearing a general's uniform entered the command post, and began to explain his official duties without greetings, but Yamada and Nakamura looked at the three golden stars on each other's red collars, of course they understood each other's identities, and after saluting each other according to their ranks, Yamada took the copy handed over by the other adjutant, and did not look carefully. Anyway, the commander of his division has already conveyed the army's order, and he only needs to do a good job of handover, and there is no need to worry about the other party. However, as a Japanese general who hurriedly changed generals without defeating his opponent, Yamada really felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Wu Sang, the text has been confirmed. Our army has completed its retreat, please ask your army to take over the position. He and Nakamura turned around and left the place where they had lived for more than ten days, following a large group of staff officers with documents and maps in their arms. When he was about to go out, Nakamura couldn't help but turn around and say, "General Wu, these Germans have a lot of firepower, good luck to you." Hopefully we'll see each other again. ”

"Hehe, it's just a chicken." Wu Luzhen chuckled and said. Nakamura couldn't help but be stunned, such an arrogant tone, or let the flesh and blood of the Chinese cover this hill.

"The arrogant army will be defeated, these Chinese are not destined to succeed, and there is no need for Nakamura-kun to meet them in general. Let's think about how to deal with these forts, anyway, we will have to attack them in ten days. Major General Yamada pulled Nakamura's head and left without looking back. Wu Luzhen stood in front of the observation port and looked at the masonry fortress looming in the smoke of gunpowder on the opposite hill with a telescope, a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, the kind of tactics of the general seat is too domineering, in the future war, except for artillery, it is the world of those winged birdmen, and the infantry is the work of the corpse collection team except for being a sentry, and he, a general with tens of thousands of elite soldiers, is useless, what is going on? Could it be that he is in the prime of life and has not been able to keep up with the changes of the times?

"Isn't that weird?" General Kempf of the Qingdao garrison was a little confused when he held a special letter and telegram sent by the Wehrmacht. The other side even demanded that they withdraw the soldiers of the Bismarck South Battery three kilometers away by 12 o'clock at noon, and promised that the other side would not attack the fortress, but to show the tactics they were going to use next, hoping to make the German soldiers and civilians understand their situation.

"Is it the other party's trick? Checkmate. After all, there has never been a demand in the history of warfare for one side of the confrontation to give up a fortress for no reason, just to show a tactical precedent. The Chinese's schemes are thousands of years old, and this may be their bluff trick. A colonial government official in Qingdao said.

"Then how to explain the request to put some live chickens, ducks and large animals in the fortress, and the other party did not ask us to abandon the fortress, but only to withdraw temporarily, the other party's troops are at least ten kilometers outside the fortress, and there are other fortresses under surveillance, what do they do?" A colonel also felt that the other party's request was a bit unbelievable, but he was still very confident that the other side would be able to take the opportunity to sneak up on the German defense line, and he was very confident that the other party's attempt would not succeed.

"The Central Fortress, the Zhanshan Fortress, the Taitung Town, the Ildis Barracks, the Forts, and the Bismarck North Fort are all under control, and the opponent's attack from any direction cannot directly reach the Bismarck South Fort. The Chinese in the city have been expelled, what else can be thought? "Major General Kempf's mind was dark.

"Since you can't think of it, call back to agree to the other party's request." Mordenheim, assistant to the Governor of the German Governorate of Jiaoao, spoke, he represented the Governor, and his opinion had to be respected by everyone. Mordenheim knew that it was a secret telegram from His Excellency the Governor, but he was not given an explanation for the reason. However, Mordenheim felt that since Qingdao was bound to fall, whether it was a month or a year, except for the number of dead people, it was meaningless to the whole war, so why not plant a landmine between China and Japan, the two great powers in the Far East?

At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, more than a hundred German soldiers withdrew from the battery, leaving behind more than thirty chickens, ducks and two mules. Everyone was waiting in the trenches of Xiaoyu Mountain and Guanxiang Mountain nearby to see what magic was in the display of the Chinese.

What sound is "buzzing"? The German soldiers looked around, although there were many mosquitoes in Qingdao, but they had not yet reached the point of swarming, this buzzing sound came from far and near, it seemed to be rolling thunder in the sky, but the sky was high and light and did not look like it was going to rain.

"Over there." An observation post almost threw away the telescope in his hand, and anyone who suddenly spotted a huge cylinder in the sky with a porcelain-toothed shark head would be startled. "Airships, so many airships!"

"What is this?" The Germans understood for a moment that the attack was not coming from the ground, but from the air. It's a pity that the only German plane has disappeared, probably shot down by the Japanese, and Lieutenant Bryshov was probably martyred. Although a machine gun mount can also fire at the air on a hillside, it is beyond the reach of an airship flying at an altitude of two thousand meters at a distance of three or four kilometers.

Several Germans felt that they were just waiting for the other party's airship to fly slowly overhead, and they couldn't hold their face, and under the command of a second lieutenant, several people set up a Maxim and began to run up the hillside. Before they reached the halfway point of Xiaoyu Mountain, two swifts screamed and swooped down from the nose of the airship as soon as they pressed the nose of the airship, and the machine gun was like a fire sickle to beat the hillside into smoke and dust, and when the smoke and dust dissipated, Makqin had already turned to the ground, and the water was bubbling out of the big bullet hole on the cooling cylinder, and the bodies of several German soldiers around were beaten to pieces, and the second lieutenant even had his head beaten into a rotten watermelon, which made the German soldiers watching the battle gasp, Chinese planes, domineering exposed!

"Boom, boom." The six airships lined up in a row and flew slowly over the Bismarck South Battery, and bundles of bombs were dropped accurately, and thick smoke rose from the battery. The airship behind still continued to lay eggs unhurriedly, one after another yellow aerial bombs with a whistling sound like milk swallows returning to the nest into the battery, the addition of these mixed fuel incendiary * shells, so that the south battery became a flame hell, not to mention the agreed three-kilometer no man's land, even if the Chinese allowed the German soldiers to approach them, they could not do it, ten kilometers away from the observation mountain can feel the heat wave on the mountain, you can imagine the scene inside the fortress. Finally, in a landslide explosion, the ammunition in the ammunition depot of the South Battery exploded, and the whole battery became a firework, and the living creatures had already reached Bliss from the bombardment just now.

"Junza, do you think this German will surrender? Doesn't it mean that they are the number one army in the world? A staff officer handed Wu Luzhen a cup of tea, and asked playfully by the way, "There is only one base number left of the incendiary * bomb we brought this time, don't you dare to play like this again." ”

"You know the amount of ammunition, do the Germans know it too? They don't surrender and wait to turn into chickens. Wu Luzhen still didn't put down the telescope in his hand, "This air force is really powerful, even if the Germans plan to defend it, they can't do it now." It's just too expensive, and such a fireworks meal is enough for Lao Tzu to expand a division. ”

The Germans were good at fighting, and surrender was not ambiguous, and at three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, they sent people to contact the issue of transferring the sovereignty of the Jiaoao Governorate.

More than 4,000 German troops surrendered, after 150 German troops were killed. At this point, the last line of defense of the German army collapsed on all fronts. At 7 o'clock, the German army hung a white flag at Guanxiang Mountain and surrendered, and by this time, the Chinese Wehrmacht had attacked for less than 48 hours before taking over Qingdao on all fronts. The army did not suffer any casualties, and even entered Qingdao with a backpack without firing a single bullet. On the eve of the surrender, the Germans blew up the artillery of the battery themselves, and the warships and floating docks sank into the sea. In addition to expressing his indignation at the two shipwrecks that blocked the shipping lane, Wu Luzhen did not protest against the destruction of other weapons and equipment, in fact, the weapons of the Wehrmacht are self-contained, and the equipment of the German army may be a sharp weapon for the southern warlords, but it is a burden to the Wehrmacht.

Originally, after the Russo-German War, Japan replaced Germany as the colonial ruler of Qingdao. Eventually, the sovereignty of Qingdao and the Shandong issue became the trigger for the May Fourth Movement in 1919, and after struggle and diplomatic negotiations, China recovered Qingdao's sovereignty in 1922. [

But now the Wehrmacht has triumphantly triumphed, and Qingdao has returned peacefully. 270 Japanese soldiers were killed and 113 wounded; The protective cruiser Takachiho sank, the seaplane carrier Wakanomiya was heavily damaged, and 160 British soldiers were killed and 23 wounded, but it became someone else's wedding dress, which is really not a taste.

On the German-Austrian side, in addition to the 100 war dead, a total of 4,715 people were captured, in addition to the cruiser Empress Elizabeth (Austria-Hungary), a torpedo boat, and four gunboats sank by themselves, and since then the German forces in China have been completely destroyed, and another state has been added to Shandong - Jiaozhou.
