"Commander, please abide by the agreement to treat officers and civilians well." Colonel Hainel said in a serious tone with a straight face.

Pu Guanshui did not wait for a translator to translate German into Chinese, he replied in Chinese: "We are a glorious workers' and peasants' revolutionary army, and we have our own discipline. ”

Proofreader Hainel was a little surprised by the translator's words, "May I ask what your discipline is?" He paused and added, "If it's convenient, would you just talk in German?" ”

Pu Guanshui was a little embarrassed, his position was quite delicate now, and it was not impossible to speak German, but if he did so, there would be something inappropriate. In the end, he said regretfully: "In my position, I have to avoid trouble." ”

After hearing the words of the translator, Colonel Hainel only nodded slightly, which is also understandable, the language of the defeated army is indeed unconventional. But looking at Pu Guanshui, who was fluent in German and Chinese, Heinell felt jealous. This man must have graduated from the German military academy, although there is no certainty, but Senior Colonel Hernell can be so sure. Or maybe he is willing to be so sure, after all, surrendering to the Chinese is indeed a humiliating thing. Not to the point of exhaustion, Colonel Hayl would not have done this.

The troops of Qingdao Fortress were not many in the first place, first most of the infantry was transferred, and then unexpectedly lost more than 600 infantry, and the fortress artillery was undermanned in the forts, where were so many troops to defend the fortress group. Senior Colonel Hainel made another mistake in the defense, believing that the BJP would try to attack with artillery, but from night onwards the BJP began a strong attack with the main force of infantry.

After the People's Party had cut off the batteries on the north and south heights, Senior Colonel Hainel did not think that the People's Party could win, and the warships that had gone to make contact had already set out, and as long as they could hold out for 48 hours, or even less than 48 hours, and the returning warships could shell the People's Party troops from the sea, the Germans would be victorious.

But the fact that the BJP was able to lay down three fortresses was much more than Colonel Hainel expected. By morning, when the sky was bright enough for the artillery to fire accurately, it turned out that the People's Party had not sent a large force to attack the city. There was no object in the field of vision that could be bombarded at will.

At this time, a grenade was inserted into the viewing hole in the iron door of the main plug. The women and children who were hiding in the main plug heard the explosion and screamed in fright. In fact, there are other observation holes on the iron gate, and there are only two Chinese infantrymen outside the iron gate, which are mainly known to the people inside. After the Germans pounced, these two men were bound to not be spared.

But it doesn't make sense anymore, what happens after killing these two people? Since the gate cannot be blocked, if the enemy uses a large amount of explosives, the iron gate and the main plug will still not be spared. Moreover, the final battle did not take long, and once the resistance was carried out, the women and children and the last artillerymen, especially Colonel Hainel, had no chance of surviving in the chaotic battle.

At this time, Senior Colonel Hainel showed the essence of Juncker, and he decisively chose to surrender. When his subordinates objected, Senior Colonel Hainel questioned his subordinates on the grounds of the safety of women and children, "What if the enemy rushes in and slaughters women and children?" ”

Faced with such moral questioning, Senior Colonel Hainel's men finally obeyed the order to surrender.

Colonel Hell's conscience urged him to accept the justification of his surrender in order to defend his women and children, and Colonel Hell's sanity clearly stimulated shame. Because Senior Colonel Heinel would never say that while the safety of women and children was not only safe, but also the safety of Senior Colonel Heinel.

However, Colonel Heinel's shame was completely unnecessary, because less than 50 years before 1911, Wilhelm I, then king of Prussia, said in a trembling voice when Bismarck asked him to bravely fight against the parliament: "I know that they will cut off your head first, and then mine." ”

Chancellor Bismarck angrily rebuked Wilhelm I, "If you are sure to die, let us die on the battlefield of struggle like a man." ”

Immediately, Chancellor Bismarck had to speak in parliament in rude language that the Junkers understood but greatly humiliated Prime Minister Bismarck's status as a diplomat, "Germany is not concerned with Prussian liberalism, but with power." Prussia had to gather its strength for a favorable opportunity, which we have missed several times. The major problems of our time cannot be solved by discussion and majority voting, and sometimes it is inevitable that they must be solved through a struggle, a struggle of iron and blood. ”

In 1866, 45 years after 1911, during the Austro-Prussian War, the Junkers officers led by Wilhelm I trembled in fear in the face of the Austrian army, which represented German orthodoxy. Think that victory is almost impossible. Soon after, when they were victorious, Wilhelm I and Moltke clamored again to enter Vienna and seize the German crown.

At the end of World War I in 1919, faced with the doomed defeat of Germany, Kaiser Wilhelm II could no longer find his generals on the front line. The Junkers disappeared from the Kaiser's field of vision as if they had evaporated from the world. The Kaiser had to announce his abdication and hastily pull out Berlin.

According to 1919, 12 years before the end of the Kaiser's life, Wilhelm II had visited Bismarck's house, which had been driven out of Berlin by Wilhelm II, and looked at the officer corps composed of the Junker buns that followed Wilhelm II, Bismarck gave Wilhelm II a final warning, "Your Majesty, as long as you master the officer corps, you can do whatever you want, if this is not the case, then it will be a completely different situation." ”

Wilhelm II apparently did not heed the advice of the old statesman who had insight into the whole of Germany. It is also not known if Wilhelm II remembered the afternoon of that meeting when he was forced to flee Germany after being abandoned by the Junker officer corps.

And in 1940, less than 30 years after 1911, the German Führer had to spend a lot of hard work to fight against the Juncker officer corps before a strategic plan to attack France could be adopted. Even with this plan, the defeatist sentiment that spread among the German Junkers made the mustache hate the lack of control and purges of the Junkers.

Even Britain and France had to admit that before the mustache could win victory on the battlefield, he had to win the struggle against his generals.

So compared with his predecessors and juniors, Colonel Hainel is not ashamed, he did persevere to the end. Of course, in the mind of Colonel Hernell, the proportion of shame that surrendered to the Chinese is indeed a question worth exploring.

Pu Guanshui, deputy commander of the Shandong Military Region, who was the representative of the victory, was not too excited about the victory. Because at the military meeting before the war, Chen Ke emphasized in the plan that after conquering Qingdao, Qingdao would be defended. Not just a fortress or territory, but also to defend the factory that the Germans painstakingly ran in Qingdao.

If nothing else, the famous Sifang Machinery Factory in the 21st century has the credit of the Germans. Between 1900 and 1910, Germany built a number of factories in Qingdao, which became an important cornerstone of Qingdao's early industrial development. At the same time as the construction of the Jiaoji line, Germany started the construction of the Jiaoji Railway Sifang Factory in October 1900, which is under the jurisdiction of the German German-Chinese Shandong Railway Company, with a total investment of 1.587 million marks, becoming the third railway locomotive and rolling stock factory in China after the two factories in Tangshan and Dalian. Jiaoji Railway Factory is located near Sifang Railway Station in Sifang Village, with a construction area of more than 10,000 square meters and more than 400 workers, which was basically completed in 1902, when the main equipment was 215 sets of electric motors, generators, steam engines, hydraulic presses, cranes, boilers, forging furnaces, chemical iron furnaces, steam hammers, various lathes and charcoal trucks. After the commissioning in 1903, it undertook all the locomotive assembly and repair tasks of the Jiaoji Railway, and the Germans transported steam locomotive parts from the mainland to assemble in the factory, and by 1914, a total of 1,148 locomotives, passenger cars and freight cars had been assembled and repaired. During the German occupation, the factory and Qingdao shipyard were the backbone industries of Qingdao.

Chen Ke gave a death order, if he occupied Qingdao, he had to think of ways to keep the factory. The Germans did not destroy the artillery when they surrendered, and Pu Guanshui demanded that Colonel Hernell hand over the firing parameters of all the cannons, and on the other hand, he quickly took over the battery.

During the attack, the People's Party tried to avoid the factory area, and German artillery fire did not reach it. Now almost the entire set of enterprises has fallen into the hands of the BJP. As long as it can truly incorporate it into its hands, the BJP will be able to make the best copycat out of these factories. And the German engineers and technicians in the factory are a valuable asset.

Ordered Colonel Herel to be brought down, and Pu Guanshui began to prepare for war. If you want to take this valuable treasure of Qingdao into your hands, you must resist the attack of the German Pacific Fleet.

Pu Guanshui knew that this attack on Qingdao was a military adventure, and if it weren't for Chen Ke personally, the Military Commission would definitely not have approved such a risky plan in a short period of time. Even with Chen Ke's undoubted calculation of the battle planning, it is impossible to determine the ensuing move of the German Pacific Fleet.

Is it a desperate attempt to retake Qingdao again? Or simply refuse to pay a huge price and turn the ship around and head for another port? Pu Guanshui now wants to know Chen Ke's judgment on this more than anyone else. Therefore, when he received the German army's request for surrender, he immediately sent a telegram to Chen Ke, asking Chen Ke to give detailed instructions on the next plan of action.

The good news of the conquest of Qingdao also sparked a burst of celebration among the Huaihai Provincial Party Committee, and Chen Ke looked at Pu Guanshui's telegram with a smile on his face. There was no exaggeration of victory in the telegram, just a simple sentence. "Our army has conquered Qingdao. I would like to ask Chairman Chen to give detailed instructions on the next course of action, and please inform me of the movements of the German fleet. ”

...... the movement of the German fleet, the smile on Chen Ke's face had gradually disappeared. Even if the People's Party's land military operation was successful, it did not mean that it would be able to control the actions of the German Navy. Chen Ke sincerely hoped that the German Pacific Fleet would have great ambitions and aim to recover Qingdao entirely. If this were the case, at least the Germans would not have run back to shell the Qingdao industrial zone.

But whether Germany will be discouraged, Chen Ke is completely unsure. Now Germany has only a few small islands left in the Pacific Ocean where birds do not lay eggs. Of course, these islands were famous after World War II, such as Guam, an important U.S. naval base in the Pacific. In 1911 it was German. It was taken by Japan in World War I. World War II was taken away by the United States.

However, this place is simply not able to build any naval base on its own resources, and it is not completely without reason if the German army loses its mind at this time.

But after thinking about it, Chen Ke was relieved again. Since Germany is coming out for the "interests of the great powers" this time, even if the great powers want to fall into the ground, they must first get this basic face back. This is the first time in more than 60 years that a foreign army has surrendered to a Chinese army on Chinese soil. Even if Germany is shameless, the great powers still want this face.

Therefore, the Germans may not have jumped over the wall and completely destroyed the industrial area of Qingdao through shelling. Looking at Pu Guanshui's earnest message, Chen Ke wanted to call back and tell Pu Guanshui that he didn't have to worry too much.

However, Chen Ke could not say anything about this order, and the advantage of the People's Party was on land. Even the Yangtze River is just a "small ditch" in China's vast land. But when facing the sea, Chen Ke still found that there was not much experience he could learn from. I don't know when, the Huaihai Provincial Party Committee has been silent. The comrades looked at Chen Ke thoughtfully, and they didn't know what was happening. No one dared to interrupt Chen Ke's train of thought at this time, and the celebration had completely stopped.

"Chairman Chen, what's wrong?" Shang Yuan finally asked.

Pu Guanshui wondered if the German Navy would return to Qingdao to shell the industrial zone. Before the war, we explained many times that we wanted to take the industrial zone in its entirety. It seems that Comrade Pu Guanshui has completed his task. I don't think the Germans are likely to do this, but I don't care. Qingdao's industry is very important to us, and I dare not completely rule out this possibility. Chen Ke replied.

"Can these equipment be shipped to Xuzhou?" This was the first thing that Shang Yuan thought of.

"It's too difficult to bring it back. Even if we dismantle these equipment, it is completely unsafe for maritime shipping, and at most we will transport these equipment to Jinan. Limited to the problem of railway transportation, Chen Ke is also very helpless.

"Then let's talk about it." Shang Yuan said.

"It's a hassle to move to an industrial center, but I personally hope that the war will end here." Chen Ke said slowly.

When the comrades saw Chen Ke say this, they had already guessed that Chen Ke already had his own brand new ideas. And this idea is by no means something I can imagine.

Wu Xingchen, who was on the Lianyungang front, received a telegram in view of the fact that Qingdao had already been conquered. The battle at Lianyungang entered the next stage, with the main focus on heavy casualties of German infantry forces.

"Rocket artillery units ready!" Wu Xingchen had a vicious smile on his face. The Germans relied on naval guns in Lianyungang and began to build a temporary fortress. In the first stage of the military plan, it was necessary to fight the enemy, so that they could not easily build temporary fortresses, and also to give the enemy the illusion of occupying Lianyungang. Wu Xingchen can be described as racking his brains. Now in the second phase, there is no need for the slightest restriction. The infantry detachments, which had already been ambushed on the periphery, immediately launched an attack on the German outposts.

The Germans sent two outposts, each with a platoon of strength. Observation posts were set up on two high ground outside Lianyungang. During the day they were German, and they had the support of naval guns and could call for artillery assistance at any time. As soon as night falls, the battlefield becomes that of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army. Troops will attack these outposts, which they will pull out in the dark of night with light machine guns and small troop sneak attacks.

It was not only the troops attacking Qingdao that were tempered on the brutal battlefield of blood and fire. The troops assembled in the vicinity of Lianyungang were also put to the test. The initial scale of the attack was one company, and there were heavy casualties under heavy German fire. The next day the scale of the offensive became a platoon. But they were not able to successfully lay the ground.

On the third day, the attacking force was still a platoon, but attacked from three sides. One side uses a sneak attack to attract enemy fire, while small units in the other two directions launch a surprise attack.

After all, the Germans were not the Beiyang Army, and they were quite well prepared in terms of defense. Even in the face of multiple attacks, they still defended quite stubbornly, and such an attack only broke into the German defensive circle, but finally failed due to the lack of follow-up troops.

It doesn't work if there are more troops, and it doesn't work if there are fewer troops. In addition to multi-lane attacks, there must be reserves. The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army had long been exposed to the infantry squad and platoon tactics described by Chen Ke. However, it is mostly a large-scale battle with superior firepower. Faced with small German forces, the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army found itself with a real problem in this regard.

But now there is no need to worry about this, the troops carry rockets to the front along the communication trenches that have been made long ago. After a dozen rounds passed, the once seemingly impregnable outpost of the German army turned into a sea of fire.

Wu Xingchen laughed, "You turtle sons also have today!" ”

The surrounding comrades were also cheering. The German naval guns also fired back, but the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army was not stupid enough to rush to the destroyed positions again and cheer.

The troops bypassed the German naval artillery attack area, and the artillery soon arrived at the positions that had been measured long ago, and more than two dozen rockets passed, and the German temporary fortress was also turned into a sea of fire. Although the accuracy of the rocket is not high, due to the modular design, the warhead only manages the counterweight. Whether it's a burst bomb, an incendiary bomb, a steel ball bomb, or a cloud burst bomb that just exists on paper. The warhead design can be carried out completely independently.

For testing, a mixed attack of multiple warheads was used in this attack.

As soon as the German warships were withdrawn. The BJP's medical experts now have ample research materials.
