Although Longkou is not a regular wharf, there are also fortifications and fortresses built by the Lu army, and the fortifications built with a lot of manpower and material resources will naturally not be useless. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info When the Fusang warship arrived at Longkou, the defenders had already entered the position and were ready for battle.

If you are stubbornly defending the battery, you are basically waiting for the ship's artillery to bombard, and the fortifications of the Lu army are located outside the range of the ship's guns. Although it was possible to avoid the coverage of fire from the sea, it was also impossible to stop the landing of the Fuso army.

The infantry of three divisions and regiments carried out landing operations, and the strength of one battalion was simply not able to organize a counter-assault. All the soldiers could only hold their guns tightly in the fortress and stare at the front. Everyone knows in their hearts: it's time to kill and report to the commander.

Eat food and become a soldier, and repay the favor with death. The Lu army has no doctrine, so it only relies on this ideology to educate the troops and lead the troops. As a descendant of Zhao Guanhou's troops, the cavalry brigade eats and drinks well, and when the time comes, there is nothing to say. All those who serve as soldiers also have this awareness. But life and death are approaching, the face is blue, and the body trembles, these are inevitable. It all relied on the commander-in-chief to beat and scold and maintain the discipline of the troops.

Of course, the Fuso army will not let go of this fortification. After the front army went ashore and built a beachhead, it immediately sent sappers to clear the mines. With the lessons learned from the Lushun Fortress, the Fuso Army attaches great importance to the training of mine clearance operations, and every time it goes to a place, it must first eliminate the threat of landmines. This is bound to be slow and dangerous, especially when confronted with reckless landmines. This is also the last tranquility of the defenders inside the fortress.

The news of the annihilation of the three hundred old soldiers has come, and the person who sent the letter was the head of the Yantai Sihai class. She only said that she was Sun Guiliang's woman, and she came here to report the funeral, and then she rode on a horse and ran to Pingdu. God knows what she's going to do, and no one cares. There is no need for the orders of the superiors, the defenders here have spontaneously brought filial piety to their bodies, even if they are not children of the Sun family, they are also soldiers of the cavalry brigade, and it is the duty of the elders to hang filial piety.

The battalion commander of the infantry battalion, Sun Wangzu, is also a son of the Sun family, and he also carries the rank of deputy regiment commander. In terms of talent and ability, it is recognized in the brigade that Sun Wangzu is not as good as Sun Wangxiang, the deputy battalion commander. But Sun Wangzu can be a man, when he sees Sun Meiyao, he calls his sister, some don't, recalls countless brothers and sisters in the past, even Sun Meiyao herself can't be sure, whether these things have happened. But relying on these memories and sweetness, he pressed Sun Wangxiang at the first level.

In the Lu army, this level can often decide a lot of things. For example, military salary, such as promotion speed, such as who will enter the military academy training, and then who can marry a better daughter-in-law.

The two really got into a feud because they fell in love with the daughter of a big car shop owner at the same time. The girl went to a foreign school, dressed up fashionably, and looked like a foreign girl in the city. In the end, Sun Wangzu relied on his identity as a regiment-level battalion commander to marry someone, and since then he has become a sworn enemy with this brother.

Even in the position, Sun Wangxiang didn't have a good face for this cousin, his face was gloomy, worse than the weather. Sun Wangzu didn't care, although he had a filial piety belt on his head, he didn't have a smile on his face, humming a small tune, he didn't look serious, he looked around, and there was a sound

"This fortress is well repaired, and it is estimated that even a person with ten cannons and eight cannons will not be able to fall down. There is also a passage, which is also convenient when retreating. But we have to withdraw as soon as possible, and when the little devils finish clearing the mines, if we let the cavalry surround us, it will not be easy to run again. ”

"Lu Army's military regulations, there is no forgiveness for escaping and killing in battle!" Sun Wangxiang stared at Sun Wangzu, as long as the other party mentioned running away again, he was happy to cut off the other party's head with a knife.

Sun Wangzu smiled, "You fool, you still regard military discipline as a golden rule." The heavens and the earth are big, and human life is the greatest. Today, the brothers in this battalion, all of whom are from our cavalry brigade, are all dead, and you are happy? If nothing else, how much does the surname Sun account for? Twenty-six, exactly twenty-six! So many of your own families have died, don't you feel distressed? Even if you don't feel distressed, your cousin doesn't feel distressed? Why did more than 300 old people die, not to give us a way to live? Besides, don't mention those old men, aren't there still big sisters? With her lying in front of the handsome, taking her naizi, and rubbing it on the handsome's arm, can she really shoot us? You see that your sister-in-law is a coquettish with me, and she rubs me with her naiko, which is whiter than snow, and I bought it for her. ”

Sun Wangxiang didn't know how hard he had to make his fist fall on the other party's face, spit on it, and stood near the shooting hole. "The old man of our Sun family, I can't die in vain, I have to take revenge! If you want to go, I won't stop you, I have to stay. ”

"Stubborn donkey!" Sun Wangzu scolded and slapped his hand on his brother's shoulder, but when his hand was about to fall on the other party, it accelerated violently, changed direction, and fell heavily on his neck.

Looking at his brother who was knocked unconscious by himself, Sun Wangzu snorted, "Stupid! If I let you, I really can't beat you? With your lack of heart and eyes, coupled with this stubborn temper, you really married your sister-in-law, and in the end, both of you were not happy. In life, you can't just look for what you like, you have to find the right one for yourself, and when you think about it thoroughly, you will understand it. I'm your brother, can I let you die in my head? Come, take him away. All those surnamed Sun in the position will retreat with him, and the others will stay! ”

A company commander asked, "What about you?" ”

"Nonsense, it's all gone, who will guard this fortification, and who will take revenge on my uncle? I haven't killed the Fuso yet, where am I going? With me, I usually eat and drink well, and take you to the cellar many times, and now it's time to pay the bill. All of them are there, enter the combat position, and play the backbone of our Shandong soldiers. Those who retreat without authorization will be punished on the spot! ”

Looking at the children of his clan and taking his cousin out, Sun Wangzu gave them a military salute and whispered: "I don't know if you still hold a grudge against me in the future." You must know that your heart is so small, what can I do if I give her to you? Isn't it just a woman, who is better than our brothers? That's Naizi, but it's really fucking white, your kid's heart and eyes are lively, your mouth is sweet, and you can touch it in the future...... Brother, live for me, brother is one step ahead. ”

Outside, there was an occasional explosion, which was the sound of Fuso sappers clearing mines accidentally being blown over by a mine. Zhao Guanhou secretly modified the mines, and the slightest carelessness in removing them could trigger an explosive device that could harm the deminers. Even the War Department did not know anything about this new mine, and naturally it would not be known to the Fuso intelligence agency, and these sappers became victims of the new mine.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Sun Wangzu's mouth, "The things we made Lu are good, how can you compare?" Good mountains, good waters, good women, I can't tolerate your evil. I've been lazy all my life, and I'm diligent today, so you all leave it for me! ”

The rain in the Longkou area for several days has caused enough trouble for the people of Fuso, and this is not a dock in the first place, and the infrastructure is terrible. After the rain, the road became a mud pool, and the landing troops were like entering a swamp. The boots were pulled out of the mud and then sunk into them again. Heavy equipment such as artillery, as well as ammunition and baggage, and even pack horses, were stuck on the beachhead and had difficulty operating.

Naturally, it became the most formidable enemy, with the baggage soldiers laboriously carrying ammunition boxes and driving cattle, and the officers cursing loudly and whipping the lazy soldiers with leather whips. The landing positions were in a mess.

Several ammunition boxes were stacked on top of each other to serve as temporary commanders' seats, on which Kamio Mitsuzo sat and let the orderlies wipe the mud from their boots. The brand-new boots were already full of mud, and he muttered in his heart that it must be those unlucky ghosts from Etajima who had infected him with their bad luck, causing him to be implicated.

As soon as the troops landed, they encountered continuous resistance. First, a group of veterans rushed up inexplicably, and fought with their own Yantai landing troops. Then, there was the strong protest of the Albians, who scolded the troops on the Yantai side and drenched them with blood. God knows that Albion actually has so many troops in Shandong, where did he provoke it?

The landing at Longkou was not as smooth as imagined, and the improvised fortress complex built by the Lu army, plus a battalion of soldiers, was embedded in its own offensive route like nails.

The difference between the offensive and defensive sides, whether in terms of strength or firepower, can only be described as a huge disparity, even if the artillery is stuck in the mud because the artillery is stuck in the mud, relying only on the infantry is enough to cope. According to Kamio's experience, if you don't calculate the demining time, it only takes an hour to pull out these forts.

The fact is, however, that the battle lasted for four hours after the demining of the engineering units had been completed and the assault on the forts had begun, and until all the forts had been captured. Although the defenders were completely annihilated, the death toll of the Fuso army exceeded 300.

It is true that the defenders have fortifications and fortifications that have a bonus, but the Chinese army and the Fuso soldiers have played a nearly one-to-one exchange ratio, which has never been the case since the war between the two countries in modern times. The war correspondents who accompany the army will not show mercy to their subordinates, and the military bigwigs in Tokyo should take advantage of themselves again.

In order to vent their anger, the Fuso army stabbed to death all the more than 30 wounded soldiers in the fortress with bayonets and blew up all the fortresses. But this can't change the fact that it is not good to be a teacher. The majestic national army, facing the weak army, but fighting like this, what face do you have to see your hometown fathers?

Kamio Mitsuzo made two decisions in his heart: First, revise the battle report, at least in the military manual, it is necessary to increase the number of Lu troops by five times. Second, after returning to China, you must take a saber and hack to death those bastards who eat history in the military department.

The military department seriously underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Lu army. It's not surprising that when will those bureaucrats be able to do a good job? As a general who was not a graduate of Lu University, he never had a good opinion of those military cadres who were born at Lu University. To fight a war, you still have to rely on your own soldiers who fight hard with a knife and a gun. Those office soldiers can't be counted on.

"Those navies who can only embezzle, this time they have been assigned hard bones, and the target of the navy's attack is Laoshan and attack Qingdao from the front. That bastard Kato, who had been shouting at the time that it was unfair, that it was clearly taking care of the army in the offensive plan and that it was not good for the navy. If we lag behind the Navy, he'll laugh to death. ”

Kamio Mitsuzo said to the officers beside him, and several officers were angry, "How can our great Imperial Army lose to the despicable and shameless Navy?" Your Excellency, rest assured, we will definitely take the lead in planting the battle flag in Qingdao and will not let the navy go ahead of us. ”

"That's right, we can't afford to lose to the Navy, which is the biggest enemy of our Army. The Lushun Fortress of the Tiele people, known as the iron wall, will never fall, and it will still be captured by His Excellency Nogi the great. Compared with the Lushun Fortress, the so-called fortress fortifications in Shandong can only be regarded as building blocks for children to play. The great army colonel can kick these toys to pieces with just one step. Ladies and gentlemen, this trip to Shandong is probably my last battle, and after this battle, I will probably be transferred to the military department to deal with those damned bureaucrats. When I think about the faces I have to face every day, I feel that the future of my life is bleak. However, as a soldier, this is a matter of no choice, I can only hope that the last battle will be fought beautifully, at least when I scold people in the military department in the future, I can have some confidence. For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor's cause, for the honor of the Army, and, for the sake of the next war of my old man...... Please. ”

Several Fusang officers bowed to the old man at the same time: "Your Excellency, rest assured, we will carry forward the spirit of decisive death in Lushun Fortress and complete the Shandong operation as soon as possible." ”

A man named Suzuki Shouichi smiled, "Of course we will do a good job, so that you can go to the military headquarters as soon as possible to enjoy your happiness, old man." You know, I've been putting up with you for a long time, an old man. Obviously, the wine and the amount of alcohol are very poor, and you still want us to drink with you, and you get drunk every time, it's really despicable to rely on this method to pay the bill. With a chief like you, we're also bothered. Since you are given Shandong, the farther away you are from us, the better, okay, Shandong will give it to you, and then you will obediently go away, and everyone will make a decision. ”

"Bastard! What is your boy's attitude when talking to the commander and the mentor? Believe it or not, I won't approve your promotion in the future! ”

"Great, then I can stay in the army for the rest of my life, is that a reward?"

Another officer interrupted the conversation between the two: "Your Excellency, the determination of our army to fight is not a problem, but the logistics support ...... We have limited supplies to carry with us, and all supplies are transported by the navy. How can the lifeline of our army be in the hands of the great enemy......"

Kamio nodded, "What you said is very reasonable, it is certainly not satisfactory to hand over our precious materials to the navy for transportation." But rest assured, even if the pigs deliberately delay, we will not be in a situation of scarcity. I would like to reveal a secret to you, before I set out, I gave my treasured treasure knife to Itanishi Hachiro. ”

"What? That treasure knife is your ancestral ......."

Kamio waved his hand and said, "If I have to carry a knife in hand-to-hand combat, then I should simply cut my stomach." Anyway, I don't have any heirs, and I can't pass on the sword. Compared to the glory of the last battle, and the lives of you bastards, what is a famous knife? Although I lack trust in Banxi's character, I still have to admit that his business in Shandong is quite successful. In Shandong, the intelligence agencies have developed a lot of pawns that can be used, and have also established some secret warehouses. These things are all in the service of the Battle of Shandong. Of course, the army, navy, can be used. Now...... Naturally, it's all up to us. With these chess pieces at work, plus those warehouses, what else do you have to worry about? I assure you that there are more than 1 million rounds of ammunition in Laiyang City, and in Pingdu, we will receive more than 12,000 stone of military rations, more than 200,000 rounds of ammunition, and a large number of hand-held ammunition. Along the way, there are many supply points like this, you just have to rest assured that you will fight, and I, an old man, will figure out a way to supply them. ”

Everyone had a smile on their faces, and Suzuki Shou said, "Your Excellency, I feel a little like you now." In return, Pingdu will be handed over to my troops to capture. ”

"Yes, take out your skills and show those war correspondents, our army is not waste, I am waiting for your good news in Laiyang. Also, be careful yourself, don't lose my face. ”

Suzuki replied with a military salute, "Your Excellency, rest assured, soon, you will be able to go to the War Department to enjoy the blessings." ”

The huge army began to move, and with the sound of military trumpets, a group of army troops staggered through the mud, discarding their burdens and forming in a four-way column. The flag bearers held high the Fusang battle flag, and the soldiers still maintained their military appearance in bad weather.

The war drums are like thunder, the iron stream is going south, and on the land of Shandong, the black turbidity current is rushing. The black tide is rushing, the mountains and rivers are changing color, the ancient city wall is crumbling under the washing of the black tide, and I don't know when it will collapse, and the residents behind the city wall are looking at all this in horror, helpless and powerless.
