On the march, Oyama Iwa, after receiving a report from Yamachi Genji that the combined fleet was attacking Dalian Bay, immediately ordered the troops and began a two-day forced march in the snow. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In order to forcibly recruit more coolies to haul military supplies and artillery, Dashanyan ordered a cavalry detachment to sweep and search the villages along the way.

From the stinky children to the gray-haired old men, they were all captured and enslaved as soldiers.

With whips and bayonets, they were driven to carry carts with oxen and horses in the snow and ice.

Those who do not obey will be shot on the spot.

Starting from the west bank of the Shahe River to arriving in the east of Jinzhou tonight, during the two days of forced march, the 110-mile ice and snow road was full of frozen and dead corpses of the Qing people.

In the cold night, the wind that roared like a ghost in the land of southern Liaoning was the heart-rending accusation of these people who had died in vain against the Japanese army's bestiality.

Wenjiajiao, the headquarters of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army.

When Da Shanyan led the generals and staff officers of the military headquarters, one by one, their noses and faces were red from the cold, and their noses were clear, and they walked into the warm room of the Wenjiajiao Temporary Headquarters, the time was already 10:23 at night.

"Don't talk nonsense, you tell me in the mountains, what is the current situation in the direction of Dalian Bay, what is the abnormality of the Qing army in the Jinzhou defense line in the past two days?"

Dashan Yan 'snapped' his military hat, threw it on the table, sat in the position of Mountain Genji, and asked loudly: "Dalian Bay is still shelling today?" ”

"Report to the commander, everything is normal for the Qing troops on the Jinzhou defensive line, but the artillery sound in the direction of Dalian Bay has gradually thinned out yesterday afternoon, and the shelling there has completely stopped today; Because there are no ships, the Navy has not been contacted, and it is not clear-"

Dashan Yan suddenly stretched out his hand and motioned to Yamachi Motoji to stop, lit a cigarette and fell into thought.

The room was silent for a moment, except for the occasional slight 'crackling' of the charcoal fire.

The room was full of generals, and no one dared to make a sound.

In particular, those Japanese generals who had been marching in the ice and snow for a day suddenly entered this warm room, feeling frozen and itchy, but they did not dare to move, for fear of interfering with the commander's thoughts.

"Reinforcement troops, they want to escape!"

Da Shanyan suddenly said in a cold voice: "And just tonight, even they are retreating!" ”

"How is that possible? - No, I'm sorry Commander, I'm not questioning you, but I don't understand. ”

"Wouldn't it? - I'm sorry Commander, it's the stupidity of my subordinates! ”

"Ah, why are they running away?"

Suddenly, there were all kinds of surprises in the room, and all kinds of sincere apologies.

"Whoa—"

Dashan Yan stood up suddenly, and the Japanese generals in the room were startled.

"Bang bang!"

Da Shanyan's eyes were on fire, his right hand slammed the table, and shouted: "Mountain Yuanzhi, order the first division to attack immediately, we must drag this Qing army to death in Jinzhou City, and we must not let them escape back to Lushun!" ”

"Hey!"

Yamachi Motoji still didn't understand, but this did not prevent him from strictly obeying the battle orders of General Oyamaiwa.

He looked at the brigade commander of the 1st Division in the house, and the wing commanders resolutely ordered: "Order all units to immediately attack and attack in an all-round way!" ”

"Hey!"

The generals of the 1st Division shouted in unison, and then rushed out of the provisional headquarters wrapped in wheals.

Then, outside the door, the horses chirped, and the issuance and response of various combat orders were like the wind passing through the pine forest.

Da Shanyan sat down slowly, and when he saw the military headquarters and the generals and staff officers of the 12th Brigade staying in the house, they were still at a loss, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart.

"You're all stupid pigs, idiots, and trash!"

Dashan Yan looked around fiercely: "Including the mountains and the big temple!" ”

"Hey!"

The generals bowed their heads and shouted in unison.

"What does the cessation of the artillery in Dalian Bay mean? Idiot! ”

"Bang!"

Da Shanyan couldn't help but slap the table fiercely: "This shows that the Imperial Navy has completely crushed the coastal defense of the Qing army!" It's not the stupidity of the General Staff, it's not that this heavy snow has sealed the docks, now as long as a wing of troops is thrown into Dalian Bay by sea, tens of thousands of Qing troops in Jinzhou can be annihilated! What do you want to say? ”

Oyama Yan angrily glared at the chief staff officer of the rear of the military department, Fujii Shigeru Shaosa, and shouted: "Say! ”

"Commander, since, since—"

"Speak fluently!" The roar of the mountain rock reverberated through the house.

"Why did the Imperial Navy delay a day today without shelling the Qing army?"

Shigeta Fujii held his breath, trembled his voice, finished his words in one breath, and then began to gasp for air.

He is a small young man, and it is indeed too difficult to deal with the number two person in the Imperial Army.

"Pigs! Because today you have to clear the mines and clear enough range to attack! ”

If he listened to He Changying's famous words now-'I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, I'm afraid of pig-like teammates'—he will definitely be able to have a relationship with me and become a confidant.

"Hum—"

The ground inside the room began to tremble slightly, and it was the trembling sound of the horses of the 1st Cavalry Brigade in Tokyo trampling past the temporary headquarters station.

On a small hillside in Wenjiajiao, Shandi Yuanzhi watched the cavalry of the First Division in front and the infantry behind, rushing towards the Shimenzi Heights and Wolong Slope.

"Chief of Staff, why did the Qing army suddenly withdraw?"

The staff officer of the division standing beside Yasumi Ojira, Lieutenant Yoshiichi Tanaka, did not dare to question the assertion of General Oyama Iwa, but he still didn't quite understand it in his heart.

At this time, Daiji Yasuchun had already thought it through, in fact, on the day of today, he had a kind of realization that he was about to pierce the window paper.

It's just that the reinforcement army on the opposite side has been fighting treacherously these days, and it is tenacious and ferocious to resist.

What's more, they are in Dongxian Ridge, Shun'an Station, Zhisongyuan, Hushan, Andong City, and a few days ago in Pulandian, Jinzhou City, a series of proud achievements, so that Daji Anchun can't help but be in awe and tremble from the bottom of his heart.

Let him face the Jinzhou defense line that seemed to be impregnable in front of him, and he didn't dare to have too many thoughts and recklessness, and thought in his heart subconsciously: When Commander Dashanyan comes, there will be a way.

"This army has given the Imperial Army too much blood memory, the first army, the second army, the imperial army in their hands has exceeded the strength of the wing, and they seem to be getting stronger and stronger!"

When he thought about the 1st Cavalry Squadron and the 15th Wing of the 15th Squadron planted in Pulandian and Jinzhou City, he felt his heart twitch.

The moonlight is bright, standing on the high slope, the mountain Yuanzhi can clearly see on the silver-white snow, the imperial cavalry cluster rushed out of the valley bottom between Shimenzi and Wolong Slope, like an arrow off the string, straight to the Qing army's Chenjiatun artillery position.

Even though it is a long distance, even if the snow has the effect of sound suppression and shock absorption, it seems that Genji Yamachi still hears the magnificent slaughter of thousands of horses galloping.

He was thrilled.

He was proud of it.

He did it for-

Yamachi Genji's face suddenly changed.

First, the blood in his head surged, making his face red and red.

Then there was a white face, ashamed and angry.

"Wow-"

Lieutenant General Motoharu Yamachi, the 'Oshima Yoshimasa No. 2', opened his mouth violently and spat out a large mouthful of bruises into the snow.
