"My lord, the prefect of Chongqing Prefecture asked to see him, saying that there is something important to report, and it is about the weapons of the new army?" The guard hurriedly reported. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hearing the words of the new army's weapons, Governor Xiliang thought about it and ordered: "Hurry up and have affection...... And a few of you will also stay, and see if a five-grade prefect can bring us any good ideas. ”

Soon, the prefect came in.

Under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, he quickly said the gift he had prepared for Xiliang.

Xiliang was shocked, and hurriedly asked the prefect: "Lord Wang, where did you get so many weapons and ammunition?" ”

In the face of Xiliang's questioning, the prefect did not dare to hide it, and quickly told the matter of exchanging immigrants for weapons and ammunition from the Liaodong Army.

As soon as Xiliang heard it, he understood the thoughts of the Liaodong Army.

However, Xiliang did not get angry about his subordinates' unauthorized immigration to Liaodong.

Because, Xiliang is also one of the few main war faction officials in the imperial court, and he admires the Liaodong Army, an army that has not yet been fully recognized by the imperial court.

Because, the Liaodong Army outside the gate did what he wanted to do but couldn't do.

Therefore, for immigrating to Liaodong and supporting the Liaodong Army to fight the Russian army and the Japanese army outside the pass, Xiliang agreed from the bottom of his heart.

Besides, through emigration, I also got the weapons and ammunition I dreamed of, and even the artillery that foreign companies couldn't buy, so why not!

So, Xiliang made a decision without discussing this matter with his staff: "Continue to emigrate to Liaodong outside the Guan, exchange for more weapons and equipment, and form a new army!" ”

Yan Bing, who returned to the company, received an invitation letter from Governor Xiliang to let him go to the Governor's Palace, and immediately understood that he had entered Xiliang's field of vision by exchanging weapons for immigrants.

As long as nothing else, Xiliang will definitely agree to use immigrants to buy weapons from himself.

In this way, his plan to immigrate millions of people from Sichuan to Liaodong will be easily realized.

In order to ensure that the action of the 100,000 Japanese and Russian allied forces to encircle and suppress the Liaodong Army was foolproof, the two armies directly headed by the chief of staff set up a joint command headquarters.

After a month of preparation, the Japanese and Russian armies were already on the Anshan and Liaoyang lines, each with 50,000 troops and at least three regiments of artillery. As soon as the order to attack arrived, the 100,000 Japanese and Russian elites returned to Anshan and Liaoyang to launch a fierce attack.

At this time, Yang Xingguo, who was far away in Liaozhong, was still not aware of the news.

Although the intelligence bureau in the middle of the week received a lot of information about the movement of the Japanese and Russian armies.

However, they all believed that these movements were due to the preparation of the Japanese and Russian armies for a decisive battle, so they did not attach too much importance to them.

In the forward position where the Anshan defense line was in direct contact with the Japanese army, more than 100 people from the fourth division, one regiment, and one company were still holding guns in the position, except for a small number of guard posts, and all the officers and men of the province were training in the open space less than 20 meters behind the position under the command of the company commander.

At this moment, a few hundred meters away from the Japanese position, a large number of Japanese troops suddenly rushed out of the black pressure to suppress a large number of Japanese troops.

The Japanese soldiers with rifles in their hands were like a yellow wave, quickly surging towards them.

Although the Japanese troops who rushed towards the position did not shoot, as long as they were not doing anything, it was clear that the Japanese troops must have come badly. Otherwise, the Japanese army, which had been calm for more than a month, would not have suddenly burst out of so many troops to rush towards them.

A company of more than a dozen guard posts left on the position, shocked, subconsciously jumped into the trench to hide. And fired a bullet at the sky to warn the main force of the company behind.

"Bang!" As soon as the gunfire rang out on the position of the company, the Japanese troops who were attacking forward followed and pulled the trigger.

Immediately, gunshots like popping beans rang out on the battlefield.

More than a dozen sentries guarding the position were immediately crushed in the trench and could not move.

At this time, the company commander who heard the gunfire also reacted.

Although I didn't understand why the Japanese army would attack them without warning, and there was an infantry brigade as soon as they came up.

But as a company commander who grew up from an ordinary soldier, except for the recruit period, he really never feared the battlefield as he became more and more brave in battle.

Although the Japanese army dispatched an infantry brigade at one time. The company commander still calmly ordered: "Signal soldier, immediately go to the rear and report to the battalion commander and regiment commander that the Japanese army has suddenly launched an attack on us, with at least one brigade of troops." Looking at this posture, the Japanese army is going to break through our position in one fell swoop and directly kill Liaozhong......"

"All of them, loaded bullets, follow me into the position, let the Japanese army see the power of our Liaodong Army!"

As soon as the light and heavy machine guns of the company were fired, the infantry of the company, which was pinned down in the trenches, had a chance to counterattack.

However, the good times did not last long, and with the heavy machine guns provided by the Japanese army to provide fire cover, more than 100 people in a company were once again suppressed in the trenches, unable to lift their heads.

"Company commander, there are too many Japanese soldiers and too much firepower, we are not opponents at all!" The platoon commander who climbed along the trench to the company commander said with a solemn face.

"If you can't look up, then greet with a grenade...... Tell the brothers that they are all hiding. Our position is on top of the beam, and we are condescending, and if the timing is right, we will be able to repel their attack with grenades. The frowning company commander ordered without thinking.

Nearly 1,000 Japanese soldiers with rifles, under the cover of several heavy machine guns behind them, seemed to be armed marches, approaching the position step by step.

Fifty meters, when the dense Japanese army had already rushed to fifty meters in front of the formation, the frowning company commander decisively ordered: "Grenade ready!" Pull the strings, throw! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the company commander grabbed the grenade in his hand and threw it with white smoke.

More than 100 grenades emitting white smoke flew out of the trench and smashed towards the Japanese troops not far away.

The grenade exploded, and the one or two hundred Japanese troops who rushed to the front bore the brunt, and they were instantly drowned in the smoke of gunpowder, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

At this time, the company commander decisively gave the order to continue throwing grenades.

Just as the company commander threw the second grenade, the accident happened.

In a large area shrouded in gunsmoke, dozens of grenades emitting white smoke also flew out.

Without exception, all of these grenades flew towards the position where the position was located.

Despite a row. Occupying a condescending geographical advantage, more than a dozen grenades still flew into the trenches and exploded.

"Get down ......," the company commander and several squad and platoon commanders subconsciously ordered loudly.

However, a dozen soldiers were still bombed by grenades and fell to the trenches covered in blood.

"****, when will the Japanese army also be equipped with grenades......" The company commander, who looked distressed, stared at a pair of red eyes and scolded loudly.

When it was over, he ordered very decisively: "Keep throwing grenades!" Use up all your grenades and retreat from the trenches. ”

"The Japanese army is also equipped with grenades, even if the whole company dies in battle, it is better to withdraw and join the main force of the regiment and continue to block them." (To be continued.) )
