(One hundred and three) to govern others in their own way
The battered Yue army began to retreat in the direction of the beach, and soon re-entered the firing range of the 88 mm cannons and machine guns of the squadron, and saw the soldiers of the Yue army who were desperately struggling in the sea of bullets and fire, Yang Shuoming's heart was full of revenge.
Seeing that the retreat was cut off, probably feeling desperate for survival, the remnants of the Yue army actually stopped retreating, and under the leadership of several officers holding Toyo swords, they re-launched a charge forward, although they were still hit by fifty box cannons and grenades, but this time they desperately rushed forward regardless of the dead and wounded, and actually rushed into the array of the [***] team, intending to fight bayonets with the Chinese soldiers!
Together with the soldiers, Yang Shuoming used the guns in his hands to shoot short bursts, knocking down the soldiers who rushed to the front one after another, not giving the other party a chance to approach at all.
A small man with glasses screamed and rushed straight at Yang Shuoming, Yang Shuoming shot several shots in a row, the bullet pierced through the leg of this person, he fell to the ground immediately, but did not lose his breath, he let out a beast-like roar, desperately crawled forward, raised the rifle with a bayonet, and wanted to throw it at Yang Shuoming, at this time a guard next to Yang Shuoming rushed up, kicked his rifle away, and then fired a few shots at his body.
The soldier lay on the ground and didn't move, and Yang Shuoming noticed that this soldier was actually not very old and should be a student.
A child of this age should have been studying in school, but seeing his hideous face and death, it is difficult for people to associate him with the students in school.
The battle continued, and because his opponent this time was Yang Shuoming's "Imperial Forest Army", even if he had always attached importance to "swordsmanship" and a few people had seized the opportunity to fight bayonets, it would be of no use at all in front of these Chinese soldiers who had undergone strict combat training.
Yang Shuoming saw a soldier rushing out of the oblique stab with a rifle with a bayonet and stabbing a Chinese soldier, the soldier was only light on one side, so he dodged the stab, and at the moment when the two were close, he quickly pulled out the three-edged steel thorn, stabbed straight into the throat of the other party, and then quickly pulled it out, and made up for the opponent's heart.
The place where the soldier was stabbed by the triangular steel thorn immediately spurted blood, he screamed and collapsed to the ground, the Chinese soldier easily pulled the triangular steel thorn out of the opponent's body, and then began to look for the next target.
After a while, there was no suspense, the battlefield was full of dead corpses, the gunfire gradually became scattered, Yang Shuoming saw a seriously injured officer was lighting their military flag, two Chinese soldiers stepped forward to kick him down there, trying to snatch the flag from his hand, but the officer did not let go, a Chinese soldier shot the officer in the head, the officer fell to the ground and did not move, two Chinese soldiers hurriedly extinguished the fire of the flag, But almost half of the flag has been burned.
Looking at the broken military flag, Yang Shuoming's brows wrinkled little by little.
The gunfire on the battlefield finally fell silent, and Yang Shuoming did not stay here any longer, but returned to his headquarters.
According to Yang Shuoming's request, the battle report has been counted at this time.
“…… It has been decided to sink 12 large and small ships, including four cruisers, namely Chitose, Akitsuzu, Chiyoda, and Tone, two spy ships, Matsue and Kumano Maru, two coastal defense ships, Okishima and Mijima, and four destroyers. Killed 4,263 landed troops. ”
Hearing an officer's briefing on the battle report, the people in the command were all happy, but Yang Shuoming somehow didn't seem very happy.
"How much do we lose?" Yang Shuoming put down the battle report in his hand and asked.
"It is said that the ship's artillery fire is fierce, and our army also has a lot of losses." The officer who reported took another battle report and handed it to Yang Shuoming, "Two 28-mm cannons, four 21-mm cannons and 12 18-mm cannons were destroyed, and a total of 567 gunners, infantrymen, and civilian workers were killed and 322 wounded. ”
"The casualties are not small." Yang Shuoming shook his head slightly, "It's not a way to fight like this." ”
Hearing him say this, the officers around him were stunned.
"The loss of twelve eighteen centrifuges of cannons at once is indeed a great loss for us." Xie Xun guessed Yang Shuoming's thoughts, and said with a gloomy expression, "And the gunners who died are all brothers with skilled combat skills......
"That's right," Yang Shuoming looked at the people around him and said, "The industrial production capacity of this country is far stronger than ours, and the quality of the soldiers is also higher than ours. ”
Yang Shuoming's words made the room fall silent all of a sudden.
Indeed, in this war against the barbaric aggression of the Benben, the Chinese people have won great victories, and these victories seem to many people to be unimaginable before. But by now, the [***] team has also suffered a lot of losses, and the final victory in this war still looks very far away.
Yang Shuoming sensed the dullness of the atmosphere in the room, and he realized that he had made a mistake and immediately led the topic to another place.
"So our goal now is to use all the methods we can to continue to magnify our losses to the point that they can't bear it." Yang Shuoming said.
At this critical moment, Yang Shuoming knew that he must not let his worries and fears infect his subordinates.
For a commander, worry and fear are not a bad thing, in fact, beyond the ordinary people's fear and fear is a necessary condition for becoming a good commander. Because only out of worry and fear can we fully estimate all kinds of possible contingencies and be ready to respond at any time. The difference between a good commander and a bad commander is that a good commander can successfully hide the fear and fear that is actually twice as superhuman in his heart, and motivate (or "flicker") his subordinates to fight, on the contrary, a commander who cannot hide his fear is a bad commander, and once the emotions of worry and fear are transmitted to his subordinates by a bad commander, it will infect the entire army like a plague, and such an army, before the battle begins, is actually doomed to failure.
"All that works?" As an artillery officer, Xie Xun seemed to hear what was hidden in Yang Shuoming's words, and immediately asked.
"That's right." Yang Shuoming nodded vigorously, as if he had made an extremely difficult and important decision. The officers around him noticed in amazement that the eyes of this "victorious general" who was praised by others seemed to be burning with a raging flame.
"Keep an eye on where the Japanese army might land, we need to give them a truly lethal artillery strike." Yang Shuoming said.
Hearing the phrase "truly deadly shelling," Xie Xun and many of the officers had a puzzled look on their faces.
"Let the 'fire rats' be ready immediately, I want them to be ready at all times." Yang Shuoming ordered to one of the adjutants of the Gan army beside him.
After the end of the military meeting, it was already a little late, Yang Shuoming came to the Bismarck Hill Fort, at this time the gun smoke of the fort had dissipated, everywhere was the traces of the destruction of the army's artillery fire, some civilian workers were cleaning up the damaged gun emplacements with maintenance personnel. These ** Shandong strong men shouted the trumpet, and dragged the cannon body of a cannon out of the rubble with a thick rope, because the cannon was too heavy, many people were so tired that they sat on the ground and gasped, but no one complained.
In the distance, through the air still mixed with gunsmoke, Yang Shuoming seemed to be able to hear the faint cry of a woman.
He knew that it should be the relatives of the people who came to help the war and died crying.
Yang Shuoming's mind came up with the scene of their sacrifice, and a pair of fists couldn't help but clench slowly.
These days, he has been hesitating whether to use that kind of "extraordinary means" against him. But in this moment, he strengthened his resolve.
The reason why he decided to do this was that after receiving the report of casualties, he finally made up his mind to use this method of "lack of Degas smoke" when the strength he had accumulated in every possible way for more than a year was not exhausted.
As a person with a strong sense of justice, Yang Shuoming always had a sense of moral guilt in his heart for using such means in war.
Yang Shuoming has always hated the crimes of "731" in history, and he never thought that there would be such a day when he would return to the past and treat others in his own way.
But now, he no longer hesitates.
Since this can curb China's ambition to invade China, save more Chinese people from the ravages of war, and win China precious time for development, there is no need to consider the moral significance of the means themselves.
Yang Shuoming took a deep breath of the air with a slight smell of gunsmoke, let go of his hands, and along with his thoughts, the "supercomputer eye" flashed a line drawing of insects.
At this time, a small army that came with the Jiangxi army but had not participated in the battle began to act nervously after receiving the order.
August 15, 1915, Laoshan Bay, Shandong.
"I said that I really know how to pick a place, and I actually chose to land here." An artillery observer of the squadron raised his head from the mirror of the artillery team, and said to Zhang Zhiwen, the commander of the rocket artillery unit of the Jiangxi army, with some annoyance, "Last time, they ruined this place enough. ”
The Jiangxi commander nodded solemnly and did not speak, but fixed his eyes on the Yue army that was landing.
When the Yue army attacked the German army in Qingdao, due to the heavy rain and flooding, the Yue army once fell into a predicament of not being able to advance or retreat, and Kamio Mitsutomi later ordered the Yue army to land in the picturesque Laoshan Bay, and established a new forward base here to provide support for the landing of the Yue army, so that the Yue army got out of the predicament. Because they tasted the sweetness last time, in order to recapture Qingdao this time, the Yue army still chose to land in Laoshan Bay.
"It's up to you in a moment!" An artillery officer looked at the 105mm rocket launcher that had been laid, and his face was full of eagerness.
Zhang Zhiwen looked at the endless warships and transport fleets on the sea in the distance, took a deep breath of the sea breeze, turned his head to look at Liu Xing, the commander of the medical unit of the Jiangxi army, and asked, "When will you use those things you brought?" ”
Liu Xing looked at the soldiers gathered in the boats with an expressionless face, and said, "You beat yours, when you use it, I will tell you." ”
Hearing this somewhat strange conversation between the two, several officers around looked at each other, all with a puzzled expression.
An artillery commander "asked" a medical officer for a combat opportunity, which seemed to them something incredible.
Liu Xing ignored the strange gazes of the officers around him, he turned around and left this hidden command post and came to his own unit, and with his order, the officers and soldiers of this small unit changed into a set of white clothes with helmets and completely wrapped their whole bodies.
"What do they mean by that?" An artillery officer looked at the swaying white ghosts in the distance, and asked Zhang Zhiwen with some puzzlement, "Can you still fight if you dress like this?" ”
"This is General Yang's exclusive medical unit," Zhang Zhiwen replied vaguely, "they are all very powerful doctors, no matter how seriously injured they are, they can save them at any time." He pointed to the troops who had landed in the distance, and then said, "We will have a tough battle in a while, and the casualties will definitely not be small, so General Yang sent them." ”
"I see." The artillery officer looked back at Liu Xing, who had already changed into a white protective suit and had fifty box guns on his back, and still had a trace of doubt in his heart, but he didn't ask again.
Zhang Zhiwen raised his binoculars and carefully observed the situation of the landing army, and when he saw that the landing force of the Japanese army had gathered a large number of people and a large amount of weapons and equipment that had been unloaded on the long and narrow beach, he decisively waved his hand at an officer beside him. Soon, a red signal rocket flew into the air with a long white smoke, emitting a shining red light.
The red light from the signal rockets flying into the sky illuminated Liu Xing's glass protective mask, and he looked up at the sky, where his subordinates unloaded special rocket warheads from a truck.
At the same time, the officers who were shouting and driving the soldiers of the Yue Army who were carrying heavy equipment to land also noticed an anomaly in the sky.
"This is the signal of the attack of the Shina people!" Muto Shaosa stood knee-high in the sea, pushing the exhausted soldier hard, "Quick! Get to shore! ”
As soon as Muto Shaoza's words fell, he saw countless white smoke suddenly shot out from the mountains and forests in the distance!
"It's a rocket from the China!" I don't know who shouted.
At this moment, the whole beach turned into a sea of fire with a bang.
Fire and hell.
At this time, the officers and men who were still on the transport ship and did not get down to the dinghy looked at the tragic scene on the shore, and they were all stunned and speechless.
For many of them, it was the first time they had seen such a terrible shelling.
Especially this shelling, which turned out to be made by the Chinese, whom they have always looked down upon.
Unbeknownst to me, there were almost 100 105-mm rockets firing at them.
The rockets fired by the squadron completed the first round of fire coverage against the Japanese army in an instant, and while these rockets were still pouring down on the shore, some small boats that had not yet landed began to turn around and sail towards the transport ship.
For the first time, the officers and men of the "bushido" spirit, who had been armed with the spirit of bushido, were completely frightened in the face of the powerful firepower of the enemy, whom they looked down on.
Soon, after completing the blow to the Yue army that had landed, the rockets of the [***] squadron began to shoot at targets in the sea. Rocket after rocket roared, a small boat full of soldiers was instantly engulfed in flames, countless stumps flew into the sky, fell into the blue water, turned into a large area of blood, and in a short time, the sea water changed color.
The fiercely battered army had completely abandoned the landing, and all the ships were desperately trying to sail away from the sea of death, and they did not know that a bigger and more terrible blow had quietly befallen them.
At this time, next to a relatively high rocket artillery position, some white figures suddenly appeared.
"Chief Zhang's order, they will take over these rocket launchers for the time being." An artillery officer said to the gun commander in charge of the firing and gave him an order, "They will identify the targets of the attack, and you will be responsible for assisting them in firing." ”
The artillery commander took the order a little strangely and looked at it, and after making sure that the order was correct, he did not ask more, but immediately ordered his subordinates to hand over the rocket artillery under his command.
Liu Xing looked at the nearest rocket launcher, waved his hand, and several people in white protective suits moved the rockets that looked different and filled them into the barrels of the rocket launchers.
The artillery commander noticed that these people were carrying rockets with ease, indicating that the weight of the rockets brought by these people seemed to be very light, and he and his subordinates watched the work of this group of strange people strangely, and did not speak.
These white-clothed weirdos are very skillful in their tactics, and they are obviously very familiar with the operation of rocket artillery, and after a while, the 6 rocket launchers were loaded, and under the command of Liu Xing, these rocket launchers started firing again.
One rocket after another roared across the sea, some fell into the sea, while others hit several Yuben transport ships, and seeing the white smoke rising from the Yuben transport ship, Liu Xing's face showed a cold smile.
