Chapter 52: Seeing Shangwen Immediately
ps (Not much to say, the results of sauerkraut have plummeted!) Recommend! )
On January 25, 1905, at two o'clock in the morning, the winter outside the pass was still so biting cold, and there was a deathly silence at midnight. In order to avoid the surprise attack of the army as much as possible, He Tianci scattered the team as much as possible, because this can effectively avoid the damage caused by the sudden attack, which does not want to see the dense swagger of the troops in the anti-Japanese god bureau that we will see in later generations, if then the enemy army can kill many people in seconds with only one grenade, and the damage to his own troops is not ordinary.
And He Tianci chose the time at two o'clock in the morning, also for safety reasons, theoretically this time is the most sleepy time for people, He Tianci chose to take advantage of the night from the Heigou River that has not yet thawed directly through the past, bypassing the wicker mouth defense line of Shendanbao, and directly inserting it in front of Heigou Terrace.
Heigou Tai is close to the Hunhe River in the west, there is a low-lying Heigou River on the south side, the terrain itself is about 20 meters higher than the surrounding area, there are several large mounds, in the plain area in the south of Fengtian, it is a very special and vital place to have this geographical location, which can be attacked and defended.
The 2nd Army of the Russian Far East Army had just defeated the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed there on the 24th, and sent a 4th Siberian Infantry Division to be stationed there.
In fact, it was improvisedly composed of 15 infantry battalions, and there was also an infantry regiment stationed in Shendanbao, and the number of troops that could be mobilized was less than 3,000 people, with Colonel Von Trovtsky as the commander, and this colonel was also a defeated general who had just fled from the Liaoyang battlefield in embarrassment, and had been frightened by the army, and during the entire battle of Heigoutai, he was just nested in the fortifications, and even allowed the fifth division of the army to pass through his defense line and insert it into the wicker mouth defense line, resulting in the Russian army being divided into multiple units, which could not be connected from end to end.
Due to He Tianci's strict requirements for the troops, the troops quickly settled down in a village near Heigoutai, leaving only a few people on guard, so that the soldiers could have a good rest and prepare to deal with the troops who came to rescue the Akiyama Kogu Department of the First Brigade.
When the Mukden Reading Master settled down for only an hour, the Tachimi Shofumi, who was known as the "final famous general of the shogunate", also led the Eighth Division to Heigoutai at the same time, and the Eighth Division built a trench nearly a kilometer long on the northwest side of Long Beach, and the Russian Siberian Fourth Infantry Division was also intensively deployed along the north side of the Heigou River, and the two sides continued to extend forward, the two sides grinded their fists and palms, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the war was about to break out, and the most tragic battle of Heigoutai on the Russian battlefield was called. What kind of changes will occur because of He Tianci's involvement?
The Eighth Division was established in October 1898, after the end of the First Sino-Japanese War, and was one of the six divisions that were added from the surname necessary for the expansion of the army, and the soldiers were mainly composed of graduates of local schools in the northeast. At the time of its formation, the infantry wing was the 5th Infantry Wing (Aomori Prefecture), the 17th Infantry Wing (Akita Prefecture), the 31st Infantry Wing (Hirosaki Prefecture), and the 32nd Infantry Wing (Yamagata Prefecture). The first generation of division commanders was Lieutenant General Tsami Shangwen, chief of staff of the Taiwan Governor's Office.
The First Sino-Japanese War which ended victoriously, however, by the intervention of Russia, France, Germany, it is still rising to the point of being with Russia. From such a prediction that the First World War with Russia could not be avoided, the Army prepared for war against Russia, and instructed the 8th Division to train in cold areas.
In the Russo-Russian War, the 8th Division was mobilized in June 1904 (Meiji 37) and ordered to be dispatched immediately to the battlefield, and the reserve of the Manchurian Army was given status. In January 1905 (Meiji 38), the Battle of Kurozodai was sent as reinforcements at the Battle of Kurozodai.
Immediately see Shangwen, this person belonged to the shogunate faction in his early years, and won almost all the generals of the shogunate faction in the Shogunate War, and was also the last shogunate general to surrender to the Meiji political axe, including Oyama Iwa, Saigo Takamori, Yama Prefecture Aritomo and other so-called celebrities of the army are all defeated under him, if it were not for the shogunate faction, this gentleman may have already ascended to the throne of the army general, and the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War will not be the turn of Oyama Iwa to command.
The first division commander of the Eighth Division of the Army was Lijian Shangwen, so the current Eighth Division is basically a unit tempered by Lijian Shangwen, if it were not for the critical time, the commander-in-chief of the Manchurian Army, General Dashanyan, would never send him out, and the facts finally proved how smart Dashanyan's choice was, and it also proved that Lijian Shangwen was indeed not a master of military strategy that the rigid senior generals of the Russian army could deal with.
Immediately saw that Shang Wen's strength lies in his extremely accurate and sophisticated grasp of the fighter, and the opponent will be caught and beaten to death by him if he has the slightest flaw. Because he was once defeated by Lijian Shangwen in the Fall War, Dashanyan naturally knew that this person was powerful.
He Tianci quickly glanced around, standing in the bushes and carefully peeping at the Eighth Division, which is known as the "No. 1 soldier in the East", He Tianci couldn't help but admire in his heart: "The elite is the elite, fortunately I didn't go to attack the position of the army, otherwise wouldn't I be sent to death?" ”
Fortunately, the 8th Division's main focus is currently on Colonel Von Trovtsky's 4th Siberian Infantry Division, two divisions of the 2nd Army of the Tsarist Far East Army are also rapidly moving here, and with the Cossack cavalry of General Mischenko that may arrive, the Russian army will concentrate more than 40,000 troops in the Heigoutai area at this time tomorrow, twice as many as the 8th Division of the Tsarist Shangwen.
The historical Russian army in Heigoutai was simply a fiasco, a complete defeat, even the commander-in-chief of the Second Army, Kaulbas, was abolished, and the Eighth Division of Shangwen was stunned to defeat 100,000 Russian troops in a white-knuckle battle when there was a serious shortage of ammunition, and it was precisely because of the bravery of the Eighth Division that the command of the Tsarist Far East Army once again tried to postpone the decisive battle and shrink most of the troops back.
He Tianci couldn't help but think of once again what our great Dongfang Taizu once said: "It is not weapons but people who decide the outcome of a war." "Thinking about it carefully, there is still some truth in this statement at some times, just like now, seeing that Shang Wen can use a white-knuckle battle to repel the Second Army, which is three times his size, you can imagine how fierce the army is!
He Tianci's heart couldn't help but flash a trace of worry, facing such a strong opponent is also very tricky, but fortunately, he knows that he sees that Shangwen is about to start a white-knuckle battle, "Sun Tzu's Art of War" cloud: "Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible in a hundred battles" also increased his chances of winning.
Time flies so fast, only a thousand meters opposite him is such a powerful Eighth Division of Lijian Shangwen, he doesn't know whether he is happy or sad, He Tianci knows that he can't be defeated, because this is not only related to his own life and death, but the most important thing is related to the future of the three countries and three nations, maybe his own death is nothing, maybe he can return to the 21st century, but as a Chinese, he absolutely cannot leave such a powerful Yuben and Russia to the future China.
At this time, He Tianci no longer knew whether the goddess of luck was waving and smiling at him, or turning away from him. What kind of waves can my little butterfly set off in the current of history?
