Chapter 217: Temptation (1)
Thank you for the monthly ticket support of the book friend fried potato world.
"The Hushan position has been further built by the Qing army in China in the recent time, I don't know what you think of these?" After determining the attack on Tiger Mountain, Lijian Shangwen said to the officers in the command room.
"Your Excellency, we should do the same for this attack, sending our bravest soldiers to charge."
It is estimated that this wing captain proposed such a method after seeing the successful method of Anping Ferry.
As soon as the words of the wing commander came out, many of the wing captains who came to the meeting agreed to this method, after all, it was not their wing that participated in the attack at that time, and they did not know that the wing that participated in the attack was directly disabled.
I only know that the wing that participated in the attack on Anping Ferry was transferred to the rear to recuperate after this, and the most important thing for these wing commanders is the wing flag, as long as the wing flag is not lost, no matter how big the casualties under the command are, there will be soldiers to replenish it.
So for this wing commander, the method of using a death squad charge was approved by the wing commanders of many other wings.
In general, these wing commanders generally looked down on the combat capability of the Qing army.
After the words of the wing captain fell into the ears of Tachimi Shangwen, Limi Shangwen did not show any intention of agreeing, and for Limi Shangwen, such a method is often the last method to be used.
Only in the face of a crucial position to use such a method is almost the same, immediately see that Shangwen is extremely advocating white-knuckle combat, but he himself is not as pedantic as Nogi Noshinori, only knows how to let the soldiers charge constantly.
At least judging the situation of the battle situation, Immediately Shangwen still understands a little bit, so Immediately Shangwen does not agree with the proposals of these wing commanders.
At this time, the commander of one of the two divisions responsible for attacking Mukden this time spoke.
"Your Excellency, I think you should be cautious about Hushan's offensive methods!"
The division commander who spoke was also known by Naofumi Immediately, and this division commander was none other than Lieutenant General Watanabe Akira, the second division commander of the Eighth Division.
Watanabe Showen can be said to be the descendant of Tachimi Naowen, who was the first division commander of the Eighth Division, and Watanabe Akira successfully became the successor of Tachimi Naowen, so it can be said that Tachimi Naomi has made a contribution to this.
Since Watanabe Zhang has his own opinion, he wants to listen to it carefully, and then he said to Watanabe Zhang.
"Prudent? What is the prudent approach? ”
"Your Excellency, I think the first thing we should do should not be to launch an attack on the Qing army in Hushan, but to test the situation of the Qing army stationed in Hushan to understand the distribution of this Qing army and the direction of key defense, and then we can come up with a method of how we attack based on these!"
The method proposed by Watanabe Sho can be said to be a more pragmatic method, first testing the depth of the defenders of Tiger Mountain, and then launching a targeted attack.
As soon as the words fell, he immediately saw Shang Wen nodding approvingly, although this method will take a long time to attack, it is undoubtedly the safest.
Just as Tachimi Naofumi was about to adopt Watanabe Akira's method, suddenly the door of the command room was knocked open by a herald, and the herald who knocked on the command room put a piece of paper in front of Tatsumi Naofumi after getting permission from Tachimi Naofumi.
After picking up the paper, he only glanced at it at a cursory glance, and he felt a little angry.
On the paper was a telegram sent from China to Lijian Shangwen, which was very dissatisfied with the results achieved by Lijian Shangwen so far, and it had been almost a week since the war began, and Lijian Shangwen had only taken an Anping ferry.
Moreover, in the three days after taking the ferry, Tachimi Shangwen's army did not have any intention of attacking, so there was a certain doubt about Rimi Shangwen's command ability in the country, and it was hoped that Limi Shangwen could immediately launch an attack.
After reading the telegram, he just put the telegram on the table, and let the herald leave, and there was no telegram to explain to the country, which is enough to show that the company did not attach importance to this telegram from China.
It is immediately seen that Shangwen has such a style, and despising those high-level officers in the country is one of the compulsory courses of Lijian Shangwen, and at this time, the psychological activities of Lijian Shangwen are actually like this: these guys dare to say this in the back, if they talk like this in front of the master, I have to make them look good.
This incident was just a small episode for Tachimi Naofumi, and after putting this matter aside, Tachimi Naofumi agreed with the combat method that Watanabe Sho had just proposed, and decided to use Watanabe Akira's combat method.
After Immediately saw Shangwen's decision, although the officers below did not like such a slow method, they did not object.
This situation is a very rare situation for the Japanese military circles, and it is only here that there will be no such phenomenon as the following grams, and if other people propose such a method of warfare, I don't know how many officers will protest.
After deciding on the method of attack, Immediately saw that Naowen drew a wing from the 8th Division and the 15th Division to take charge of the offensive at Hushan this time.
Early the next morning, the Japanese army began to assemble from the Anping ferry and marched in the direction of Hushan, and at this moment the defenders of Hushan were cooking on a fire and preparing for the morning meal.
When the Japanese army was halfway there, they were seen by the soldiers who were cooking on the top of Tiger Mountain, so when the Japanese army arrived at Tiger Mountain, the soldiers below Tiger Mountain had already prepared for defense, and the soldiers who were originally responsible for cooking on Tiger Mountain went down to defend their positions.
But the artillery divided a part of the troops and began to cook, from the top to the bottom of the number of Japanese troops is not too much, and it does not need all the artillery to be dispatched, only a small part of it is needed, so the artillery who has nothing to do above must not let these meals cool down!
So there was such a strange scene in Hushan, where the artillery above was cooking, and the soldiers below were in the position and ready to face the Japanese attack.
However, after these soldiers were ready for the Japanese to attack at any time, these Japanese soldiers did not attack, but stationed themselves outside the attack range of the defenders, lighting fires and cooking.
In the face of such a strange situation, Xu Dajun had to order the soldiers on the position to maintain vigilance and monitor every move of the Japanese without understanding the situation. (To be continued.) )
