Chapter 289: The Russian Army Decides

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, the cunning Liaodong Army, the cunning Qing Dynasty people......" mentioned this matter, and the commander-in-chief was also angry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Before the war, the contact with the Liaodong Army was followed up by the chief of staff.

However, without his own consent, the chief of staff did not dare to send so many weapons and ammunition to the Liaodong Army, no matter how bold he was.

Originally, I thought that with these weapons and ammunition, the Liaodong Army would definitely become an ally of the Imperial Army of the Great Japanese Empire and help itself on the battlefield.

However, what about the result.

After the empire paid a large amount of weapons and ammunition, not only did it not get the slightest interest, but it also lost a division on the territory of the Liaodong Army.

So many weapons and ammunition, but in the end they were exchanged for an enemy.

In this case, if the commander-in-chief of the devil is not aggrieved and angry, then he is not human.

Soon, the commander-in-chief, with an angry face, made a decision.

In his own angry voice, he commanded: "One infantry wing, another infantry wing from the front." A total of two infantry wings should be able to defend against the Liaodong Army, and they should be foolproof......"

"Wait until we defeat the Russian army...... Regardless of whether the Second Division is wiped out by the Liaodong Army or not, I will destroy the Liaodong Army and kill them all......"

When the devil tried everything he could, he began to collect news about the destruction of the Second Division.

The news that the Liaodong Army had eliminated a division of the devil also reached the Russian headquarters in Liaoyang City.

Compared with the suspicion of the devil, Lao Maozi was convinced of the news.

As a garrison of Liaodong, Lao Maozi's understanding of the entire Liaodong and the Liaodong Army is obviously more than that of the devil.

The five counties in Liaozhong where the Second Division of the Devils were wiped out did not have any other troops except for the Liaodong Army, which had more than 10,000 troops and had strong combat effectiveness.

Therefore, the only one who can eliminate the second division of the devil is the Liaodong Army.

In the face of the strong combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army, I think of the fact that the Russian army was defeated by the Liaodong Army.

Lao Maozi, who didn't pay much attention to the Liaodong Army, immediately became lively.

Since the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War. The Russian army can be said to be losing ground one after another.

Although in some small battles inflicted considerable losses on the Japanese army.

However, these skirmishes did not play any role in the situation in Liaodong as a whole.

So, overall. The Russian army was at a disadvantage throughout the Russo-Japanese War.

The fact that the Liaodong Army unexpectedly eliminated the second division of the Japanese army was undoubtedly great news for the Russian garrison in Liaoyang.

The Japanese army, which was engaged in a military confrontation with itself, suddenly lost more than 16,000 elites of one division and regiment, and the Japanese army's superiority in the entire military confrontation immediately became lost.

More importantly. The Liaodong Army, an elite force with strong combat effectiveness, if you can use it for yourself.

Then, in order to prevent the Liaodong Army from attacking them again, the devils who have suffered big losses in the hands of the Liaodong Army will definitely draw heavy troops from the limited forces on the front line again to defend against the possible attack of the Liaodong Army.

In this way, the superiority in the entire military confrontation will be transferred to the Russian garrison step by step.

Thinking of this, the commander of the lieutenant general of the Russian army stationed in Liaoyang. I immediately put my thoughts out.

"Your Excellency, I think this idea is very feasible......" agreed with the chief of staff of the Russian garrison after only a brief contemplation.

"The Liaozhong area occupied by the Liaodong Army is right on the flank of the battlefield where we are engaged with the Japanese army. As long as the Liaodong Army put on a posture of preparing to attack the Japanese army in a big way, the Japanese army had to draw heavy troops to defend against the Liaodong Army......"

"The elite of the Japanese army of a division may be wiped out by the Liaodong Army......"

"Even if the Liaodong Army suffered heavy losses in the battle, in order to prevent the long defensive line that the Liaodong Army might attack, the Japanese army would have to send at least one main division over."

"Otherwise, how many devils go, how many people the Liaodong Army is likely to destroy them......"

"You know, the Liaodong Army is not only equipped with a field artillery regiment that was snatched from us. It is also equipped with a field artillery wing that has just captured the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army, and there are more than 100 large-caliber field artillery pieces alone......"

The support of the chief of staff made the commander of the Russian army more convinced of his own judgment.

After only a short period of contemplation, the Russian commander, whose face became more and more determined, decided: "Since this is the case, then this is the case......"

"Chief of Staff. You immediately send someone to contact the commander of the Liaodong Army and tell them that our Russian army is willing to cooperate with him to defeat the Japanese invasion of the entire Liaodong......"

After the order was given, the chief of staff did not leave.

Instead, the commander of the Russian army replied under a pair of puzzled eyes: "Your Excellency, commander, even if we agree to cooperate with the Liaodong Army." Defeat the Japanese army together. However, the Liaodong Army will not necessarily agree to cooperate with us......"

"I don't know if you have ever heard a Chinese saying, Your Excellency, that sandpipers and mussels compete for each other, and fishermen benefit. If I were the commander of the Liaodong Army, in the current situation, I would definitely choose to be a fisherman......"

"Also, before the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War, the Liaodong Army had proposed to cooperate with us to defeat the Japanese attack together, and also put forward some requirements for weapons and ammunition for us. However, we rejected this proposal......"

The commander of the Russian army was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted and replied.

"I remembered...... At that time, when the Liaodong Army put forward these conditions, all of us thought that the Liaodong Army was opening its mouth with a lion's mouth. The Liaodong Army, which has only a few thousand men, is not worth a million rounds of ammunition or thousands of shells at all......"

"Now it seems that our original judgment was wrong, and the Liaodong Army is completely worth the price. An elite field division of the Japanese army, even with twice as many weapons and ammunition, there is no way to destroy it. ”

Speaking of which, what does the commander of the Russian army seem to have in mind?

His face changed, and he said worriedly to the chief of staff: "A few months ago, the Liaodong Army put forward so many conditions to us......

"Now, the Liaodong Army has eliminated the second division of the Japanese army, both in terms of prestige and strength, far more than a few months ago. In addition, we took the initiative to cooperate with them, so the Liaodong Army is not going to continue to open its mouth......"

The chief of staff replied with a look of agreement: "Your Excellency, Commander, I am worried about this ......."

"If the Liaodong Army opens its mouth to our lion and puts forward conditions far more than the last time, then how can we reply......

The commander of the Russian army, who had just begun to look confident, immediately became hesitant.

With the arrogance that the commander of the Liaodong Army has always shown, he is sure that the conditions put forward by the Liaodong Army this time must be a lion's mouth.

However, once the Liaodong Army cooperates with itself, the huge benefits that may be brought to Russia are too exciting.

It took five minutes of struggle and hesitation before the commander of the Russian army made up his mind.

Commanded to the chief of staff: "The Liaodong Army can open its mouth, and we can also bargain......"

"As long as the conditions put forward by the Liaodong Army are within our tolerance, we will accept ......"

"The Liaodong Army has the strength to destroy the second division of the Japanese army, and it is worth investing in ......"

"In addition, we can also promise the Liaodong Army. After the cooperation begins, if he destroys a brigade of the Japanese army, we will give him a reward for the corresponding weapons and ammunition...... As long as he is willing to fight the Japanese, I, Russia, will support him ......" (To be continued. )
