Seeing that Sun Lichen quickly fell into deep thought, Yang Xingguo didn't intend to give him too much time to think and decided. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Order, the first division of Wang Hu's department, the second division's Zhou Qiangsheng's department, and the fourth division's Li Zhilong's department, each leave a regiment to garrison the original position, and the other troops will immediately assemble in the direction of Liaozhong......"

The headquarters guards brigade, a regiment remained to be responsible for the security of the headquarters. The 2nd, 3rd and 2nd regiments quickly went to the front line to deploy their defenses at the forefront of the confrontation between the Japanese and Russian armies, waiting for the order to attack at any time......"

Sun Liechen was directly suppressed by Yang Xingguo's sudden generosity.

It took half a minute for him to react from his shock with a stunned look on his face, and asked, "Commander, what do you want to do...... This is more than 20,000 people in eight main regiments? Do you also want to participate in the decisive battle between the Japanese and Russian armies? ”

Yang Xingguo shook his head and replied: "Pick up cheap ......"

"As for whether or not to join this decisive battle, don't even think about it. In such a large-scale decisive battle, if we join in, we will definitely be swallowed up and won't be able to win! ”

Sun Liechen replied in a heavy tone: "Commander, you are right, even if we are already very strong, compared with the nearly 200,000 troops of the Japanese and Russian armies, it is still a drop in the bucket. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that the Japanese and Russian armies were fighting to the death, it would have been impossible for us to concentrate our forces against us, and we would not have survived at all, and we would have continued to grow and develop......"

"Since we don't join this decisive battle, I really don't know how you plan to pick up the bargain, Commander?"

Yang Xingguo replied with a mysterious face: "I don't know either...... After all, it shouldn't have happened, and we don't even know what the battlefield is like......"

Seeing Sun Liechen's bitter gourd face quickly revealed, Yang Xingguo's tone changed and continued: "However, I have already thought about the target and object of our bargaining. ”

"The decisive battle of the 200,000-strong army, no matter who wins or loses, will lose a lot of troops and equipment......"

"My goal is to capture at least 50,000 rifles, 500 light and heavy machine guns and at least 200 heavy artillery pieces through this decisive battle......"

"Missed this opportunity. If you want to engage in equipment in the future, you can only buy it, and it is still priceless......"

"Therefore, we must make more preparations for the future of the Liaodong Army."

"Hiss......" There is no doubt that Sun Liechen was once again frightened by Yang Xingguo's big appetite.

While gasping for air. shouted at Yang Xingguo: "Commander, where are you picking up bargains, you are simply robbing ......"

However, after a brief contemplation, he admitted: "Nevertheless. Commander, you're right...... If you miss such an opportunity, you won't have ...... Also, as soon as the Russo-Japanese War ended, the good days of our Liaodong Army came to an end. At that time, no matter which of the two great powers of Japan and Russia wins, we will be surrounded and suppressed by their heavy troops. ”

"Therefore, we must seize this opportunity now, pick up more bargains, and accumulate more war potential for our Liaodong Army......"

Sun Liechen was able to have this insight, and he reacted in such a short time, which did not surprise Yang Xingguo.

Otherwise. Sun Liechen will not serve as the chief of staff of the Northeast Army for more than ten years in later generations.

After nodding his head in agreement with Sun Liechen, Yang Xingguo continued to say in an astonishing voice.

"In this decisive battle, if it is the Russians who are defeated, then I have another goal: Liaoyang...... Only by taking Liaoyang will we be able to attack and retreat in the face of the enemy's serious illness and encirclement and suppression......"

"The other one is that Liaoyang is the second largest city in Liaodong besides Shengjing, take it. It plays a very important role for our Liaodong Army. ”

Sun Liechen, who was frightened by Yang Xingguo too many times today, was shocked when he heard the word Liaoyang. But it didn't show itself.

After seeing that Yang Xingguo was not joking, he immediately went to arrange for someone to give an order.

A few days later, the 20,000 Liaodong Army began to mobilize.

Such a big move immediately attracted the attention of the two major powers, Japan and Russia.

Whether it was the Japanese or the Russians, they sent people to find Yang Xingguo, hoping that Yang Xingguo could lead the Liaodong Army to help him in the decisive battle.

After getting Yang Xingguo's commitment. The transfer of troops by the Liaodong Army is just an ordinary change of defense, and the Liaodong Army will not join them after the decisive battle.

The two great powers, Japan and Russia, were not only not disappointed, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, judging from the performance and tone of the representatives sent by the two major powers of Japan and Russia, Yang Xingguo immediately realized that Zhang Shanlin and Sun Liechen's inference about the battle situation was not wrong at all.

Both the Japanese and the Russians were anxious for a decisive battle.

Although I don't know what the specific reason is, Yang Xingguo inferred from the wars of later generations that it is likely that the two major powers of Japan and Russia felt that the confrontation continued and the logistical pressure was too great.

The Russians, in particular, had to take at least a month to get every bullet from the Far East.

Even if Russia's war foundation is very thick, it cannot withstand such endless attrition.

In this case, Yang Xingguo only hoped that the operation of the special operations detachment would start as soon as possible, and even if he could not postpone the decisive battle between the Japanese and Russian armies, he would sell the bullets he had hoarded in his hands before the decisive battle began.

Wang Hong, captain of the first brigade of the special operations detachment, as the captain of the special operations detachment with the oldest qualifications and the most rich combat experience, undoubtedly took over the heavy task of going north to sabotage the logistics and supply of the Russian army.

Because everyone only brought short guns, a pair of merchant guards, and the help of war horses.

In just two days, Wang Hong took more than 300 subordinates to the north for more than 400 miles.

The reason why he would act so far away was because Wang Hong clearly remembered what Commander Yang Xingguo said.

The ammunition supply of the Russian army was first transported by train and railway, then by cart through the official road, and finally to the front line.

Compared with a convoy of hundreds of wagons, the train was loaded with supplies not only large, but also very concentrated, making it easy to attack.

After thinking about it, Wang Hong finally decided to take his troops north to attack the Russians' railway line.

The South Manchurian Railway, as part of the Eastern Railway, has continuously sent resources from the Northeast back to the Russian Far East since its opening.

After the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War, the railway played the role of an accomplice in the war, transporting ammunition produced in the Far East to the forefront of the battlefield.

At this moment, the railway line in front of Wang Hong is the South Manchurian Railway built by the Russians.

At this moment, a roar suddenly reached everyone's ears, and immediately after, the ground under everyone's feet began to tremble slightly.

Wang Hong, who had been to Lushun, the terminal of the South Manchurian Railway, with Yang Xingguo and had seen the train, immediately realized that a train was coming.

Sure enough, less than half a minute after the earth shook, the thick black smoke spit out by the steam locomotive entered Wang Hong's field of vision.

Then, the train, dragging a dozen carriages, with a noisy roar, slowly passed the railway line in front of everyone. Then, it quickly disappeared from everyone's field of vision. (To be continued.) )
