"It's done, commander, it's really successful, Lao Maozi has already agreed to our conditions......" At the headquarters of the Liaodong Army, Chief of Staff Sun Liechen exclaimed excitedly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After reading the list of materials handed over by Sun Liechen, Yang Xingguo's eyes also lit up.

Because, Yang Xingguo actually found Madsen light machine guns in the list, and there are more than 200 of them.

Thinking about the heavy machine guns and mountain guns that could be captured by the Japanese army, Yang Xingguo obviously preferred the Madsen light machine gun, which could not only maintain firepower, but also be light, and could be quickly transferred.

So, Yang Xingguo replied without thinking about it: "Tell Lao Maozi that within five days, I want to see all the weapons and ammunition ......."

"After receiving the weapons and ammunition on the list, we will begin to harass and attack the devils, ensuring that the devils mobilize at least one division and regiment to guard against the ...... of our Liaodong Army."

"In addition, tell Lao Maozi, who negotiated with us, that when you leave, don't forget to take all the nameplates of the Japanese Second Division with you......"

"I, Yang Xingguo, am trustworthy and have received weapons and ammunition, and these nameplates are theirs."

When the Liaodong Army and Lao Maozi secretly cooperated and began to trade weapons.

The Japanese finally figured out how their second division was wiped out.

The Japanese command confirmed that the second division was really defeated in the hands of the Liaodong Army, and the Liaodong Army did not have any foreign aid during the entire battle.

The devil commander almost fainted in anger.

The whole person was like an angry lion, scolding at the headquarters, and several porcelain cups in the territory were also broken.

The chief of the general staff of the devil, after getting the news, was also shocked and speechless for a long time.

However, as chief of staff, he did not forget about his profession.

When the commander scolded the Liaodong Army, the chief of staff also stared at the map with a frown, thinking about the impact that this Liaodong Army, which was born out of thin air and had strong combat effectiveness, would have on the battle situation in the entire Liaoyang.

Soon, the chief of staff's tightly knit brow furrowed deeper and deeper. His face became more and more solemn.

After the commander-in-chief's anger subsided a little, the chief of staff hurriedly reminded.

"Commander-in-chief, the 2nd Division was wiped out by the Liaodong Army, and the 2nd Division was equipped with all the artillery and light and heavy machine guns. It will all fall into the hands of the Liaodong Army, that is to say, the number of artillery and heavy machine guns that the Liaodong Army now has far exceeds that of one of our divisions......"

"And in the direction of the Liaodong Army, we only deployed two infantry wings and one field artillery brigade......"

"If the Liaodong Army still has the strength to attack us. Those two infantry wings and a field artillery brigade would definitely not be able to stop the offensive of the Liaodong Army. At that time, all the flanks of the Imperial Japanese Army in Liaoyang will be exposed to the Liaodong Army. ”

Hearing that his two wings are in danger, it will even affect the entire unit. The anger in the Devil's Commander-in-Chief also calmed down at once, and he quickly walked to the map and began to observe.

Two minutes later, he asked the chief of staff directly: "Is there any latest intelligence on the Liaodong Army......?"

"Hey......" replied the chief of staff very cheerfully.

"According to intelligence, in the battle to eliminate the second division of our army, although the Liaodong Army suffered heavy losses, it still had nearly 10,000 usable troops. And that's not all. Because of the capture of a large amount of heavy equipment from our second division, the Liaodong Army, which has only 10,000 men, is fully equipped with the heavy equipment of almost two of our divisions......"

"If the Liaodong Army is willing, just by bombing with artillery, it can blow up our two wings blocking the direction of the Liaodong Army."

The commander-in-chief frowned, and replied decisively: "Our forces are limited, and the main target is the Russian army in Liaoyang. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to lose two more infantry wings at the hands of the Liaodong Army......"

"Chief of Staff, are there any troops on the front line that can be drawn...... The two infantry wings and the flanks of the entire unit cannot be threatened by the Liaodong Army......"

After a brief hesitation. The chief of staff replied: "Yes, yes...... It's just that as soon as these troops are withdrawn, we will lose our superiority in strength and firepower on the frontal battlefield...... After the decisive battle starts, even if the Russian army can be defeated. We will also lose a lot. ”

The commander-in-chief shook his head and replied: "Don't worry, the decisive battle between us and the Russian army can't be fought in a short time......"

"Now, not only are we not ready, but the Russian army is not ready. Both sides are desperately trying to gather strength and wait for the moment of truth. Deliver a fatal blow to the opponent and defeat the opponent......"

"Therefore, as long as you don't draw too many troops, it won't affect the overall situation at all......"

"Immediately transfer two infantry wings and one field artillery wing from the front line to quickly reinforce our flanks, ensure the safety of our flanks, and not give the Liaodong Army any opportunity to take advantage of."

"As for the troops that have been withdrawn from the front, I will report to the country and strive to transfer two more divisions from the country to us ......"

Two infantry wings, one field artillery wing, and seven or eight thousand devils were mobilized, and it was impossible to hide the eyes of the old Maozi scouts.

As soon as the news reached the headquarters of the Russian garrison in Liaoyang, the commander of the Russian army seemed to have won a big battle and was very happy.

Seeing the chief of staff approaching, the commander immediately asked, "Have all the weapons and ammunition for the Liaodong Army been delivered?" “

The chief of staff hurriedly replied: "Your Excellency, Commander, the handover with the Liaodong Army has been completed. In addition, the Liaodong Army gave us all the nameplates of more than 10,000 people of the Second Division of the Japanese Army in accordance with its promise......"

"Very good...... Chief of Staff, thank you for your hard work......" The commander of the Russian army replied with a satisfied face.

At this moment, from his face, there is no dissatisfaction and anger at all that he sent weapons and ammunition a few days ago.

Just as the chief of staff was about to ask a reason, the commander directly handed the information he had just received to the chief of staff.

Then, with a satisfied face, he said: "Chief of staff, you see, we have cooperated with the Liaodong Army and sent so many weapons, and now we have seen the benefits......

After quickly reading the information, the chief of staff was also covered with a smile on his face, and said with an excited face.

"Your Excellency Commander, I really didn't expect these weapons to work so quickly......"

"This is just the beginning, the Japanese army has transferred two infantry wings and a field artillery wing from the front line, and when the strength of the Liaodong Army is restored and the attack on the Japanese army begins, the Japanese army will not draw more troops from the front line......"

The commander replied as a matter of course: "Now I know that it is not a loss to give these weapons to the Liaodong Army......

"If the Liaodong Army can destroy one more main division of the Japanese army, I will have no problem giving them so many more weapons......"

Seeing that the commander was in such a good mood, the chief of staff hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and proposed: "The Japanese troops who are confronting us on the front line have lost their superiority in strength and firepower, and if we launch a counteroffensive now, we will definitely be able to catch the Japanese army by surprise." Even if you can't defeat the Japanese army, you can still inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army......"

The proposal of the chief of staff was tempting, but, after a short thought, the commander rejected it.

Because, the Russian army is not ready, neither in terms of troops nor in materiel, it does not meet the criteria for a decisive battle.

However, although it is not possible to launch a large-scale attack, it is still possible to scare the Japanese army with a small-scale attack.

So, at dawn the next day, the Russian army prepared seven or eight main battalions to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese army with companies as units.

Although this kind of attack could not shake the Japanese defense line, it caused a lot of casualties to the Japanese army, and also frightened the Japanese commander-in-chief, forcing him to speed up the pace of transferring troops from the country. (To be continued.) )
