Chapter 718: A New Mission

Wait, Ruhr is not a person who is in a hurry, anyway, now that the supplies have arrived, he has time to spend with the Japanese army. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Moreover, according to the information from the navy, the Beiyang Naval Division has sent ships to blockade the strait, so that the Japanese army is trying to reinforce Shikoku Island. He was confident that he would wipe out the Japanese army above.

What's more, the third group of troops from the mainland has already passed Malacca, and it won't take long to arrive. At that time, his own strength will reach 150,000, which is enough to eliminate all the Japanese troops.

"Report, the Scout Cavalry is back." An hour later, the staff officer ran over and heard the scout. Ruhr stood up, and sure enough, he saw several Liaodong Army soldiers wearing green uniforms and steel helmets on their heads walking in.

"How's it going?" Seeing the other party coming over, Ruhl stepped forward and asked.

The unit that was ordered to accompany the Germans this time was the 2nd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 5th Cavalry Division. Battalion commander Zhou Biyuan. Graduated from Tianjin Military Academy.

The predecessor of Tianjin Military Academy was Li Hongzhang's establishment of the Tianjin Military Academy. After Zhili surrendered to Liaodong, Liu Jun and Li Hongzhang discussed and changed the military academy to Tianjin Military Academy, and together with Lushun Military Academy, it became a military institution of higher learning in Liaodong.

"Report to the commander, the reconnaissance has been completed, and directly in front of the outside, there are nearly 40,000 troops of the three divisions of the Japanese army, and according to the situation, it is estimated that this is their first blocking position." Zhou Biyuan reported the investigation in a few clicks.

Good fellow, Ruhl's eyes widened after listening to the report, if it weren't for yesterday's encounter, it is estimated that his first division would have to be surrounded by people today.

"Are there any traces of Japanese troops interspersed around??" Looking down and thinking for a few moments, Ruhl asked after a few thoughts.

"No findings at the moment."

It was not discovered that the Japanese army was going to block their advance here, and thinking of this, Ruhr began to redeploy.

There are three divisions of the Japanese army, and if you can't figure out the reserve of one division behind you, that is, about 50,000 people, which can already be regarded as a large corps, if you want to fight here, then you only have two divisions, which is obviously not enough.

"Order, the third and fourth divisions are green, immediately prepare, enter the position on the right, and place the Japanese army to sneak attack from the flank." ”

There is no way to do it, his current strength is less than that of his opponent, and he can only enter the defense, and when the troops behind him arrive, he is making new plans.

Woowoo...... Woowoo...... Looking at the mountains of materials piled up on the south pier in the distance, Li He shook his head a few times and returned to the command tower.

After the occupation of the Shikoku Island Shore Defense Battery, the Navy did not leave, but stayed here for fear that the Japanese would counterattack.

"Commander, the Japanese and German troops have gone up and the supplies have arrived, I think we can go back, just leave the German detachment." Yan Fu, who had been in the command tower, saw Li He walk in. Take your plan to Li He.

If the fleet stays too long, this is a kind of damage to the warship itself, and besides, the characters of the Beiyang Naval Division still have to carry out a major repair and cleanup in Lushun, after all, the news has been transmitted from the Pacific Ocean. The fleet, which Japan bought in the United States, has already sailed back.

This fleet, with three battleships, three armored cruisers and nine cruisers, is already considered a large fleet, even if the main force of the Beiyang Naval Division is dispatched, it still needs a certain amount of strength to defeat them.

"I think I'm happy to set off, there is William's fleet on Shikoku Island, and we can also take a good rest in Lushun and prepare for a decisive battle with the Japanese fleet." Speaking of this, Li He signed his name and handed it to Yan Fu: "Report to Lushun and ask the marshal for approval." ”

In the Lushun Headquarters, Liu Jun, who was sitting on a chair, looked at the two dark blue arrows that were hitting the first blockade line, Liu Jun was a little excited in his heart, these two dark blue lines were the offensive line of the German army, and the red horizontal line was indeed the blocking line of the Japanese army.

Hey, hey, I guess, I don't know what the hell is going on, Fujitawaraichi has deployed nearly a full five divisions here. Smiling slightly, Liu Jun turned around from the map and looked at Zhong Lin and Zheng Yiqian beside him and said: "This time Ruer has met an opponent, in the first blocking line, Fujita has five divisions, enough for Luer to drink a pot there." ”

Both of them agree with this, after all, how to say it, the follow-up troops of the Japanese army are now endless, but Ruhr does not have too much backup, that is to say, if Ruhr is smarter at present, it is defense, not offense, of course, if you have to attack, you are waiting to be eaten by the Japanese army.

"The head is right, Ruhl has met an opponent this time." Zhong Lin on the side clapped his hands, he really wanted to see what kind of virtue it would be for the German army and the Japanese army to collide on a large scale.

"Report, Shikoku Island Telegraph." Before Liu Jun could reply, a telegraph man had already walked in outside, and handed a telegram in his hand to Zhong Lin.

After Zhong Lin took it and looked at it, he put the information on the table and said to Zhong Lin and Liu Jun: "Head, Li He sent a telegram, now that all the materials have been transported to Shikoku Island, Li He hopes that the Beiyang Naval Division and some German ships will recuperate and repair in Lushun, pointing out where to leave a detachment." Transport and coordinated army operations. Saying this, Zhong Lin added again: "Head, according to intelligence, the fleet purchased by Japan in the United States is almost there,"

Of course Liu Jun knew that the Japanese fleet was about to arrive, so he lowered his head and thought about it for a while, Liu Jun walked to the map: "Give Li He an order and agree with his plan, but the Beiyang Naval Division can't all evacuate Shikoku Island, leave the detachment fleet, and block the strait. “

"Understood," Zhong Lin nodded, and after recording Liu Jun's order, he turned around and walked out.

The Japanese fleet is coming, this fleet, but Japan has mortgaged it with decades of tariffs, but it is estimated that the United States will rejoice in vain, because Japan will not exist in this world, and even if there is a country like Japan, it will only be a vassal country under its own rule, and it will definitely not be a country with military strength, which is absolutely not allowed.

"What are you going to do this time, do you want to destroy them all or ....." When Zhong Lin walked out, Zheng Yiqian stepped forward and asked softly,

What to do. I guess I really have to think about this matter. (To be continued.) )
