Chapter 223: Lushun changes hands
The artillery fire in the sky, like a fish in the sea, continued to rush to the outside of Arthur City, except for some Russian soldiers who were not very lucky and were arranged to be stationed outside Arthur City, the Wehrmacht did not spread the artillery fire to other places.
In the aftermath, many of the soldiers had the same mentality, saying that if it had not been for the gendarmerie unit watching at the time, they would probably have been unable to resist sending shells into the city, which would have caused more casualties.
Outside Lushun City, at this time, it is like a hell square, the hill that was originally slightly shaken up was also ruthlessly covered by the cannon fire in the sky, symbolizing the original flowers and trees, at this time either has long disappeared, or is surrounded by raging fire, swaying weakly, hoping that the flame on his body can be extinguished as soon as possible.
In the entire target area, there were thousands of Russian soldiers, and only less than ten were lucky enough to survive in the end, and some of the Russian soldiers who were not dead, but whose injuries were more serious, and there was no possibility of healing, rolled helplessly on the ground, letting out a heartbreaking wail.
Just now, they still held the power of killing other people's lives, and in just the blink of an eye, these Russian soldiers changed from the role of Hell Shura to being slaughtered.
"Commander, if we do this, will the Russians be cowered in the city and not come out?" Yang Pingzhi, chief of staff of the frogman troops, said with some concern, after all, they are only the vanguard troops, although it is necessary to give the Russian army a dismount, but the situation in front of them is probably a little unexpected, and none of them expected that the Russian army would be so willing to stay there and be bombed.
It's already happened, it's an indelible fact, and it's not something they can stop it, but what about after that? Will it affect the overall situation? This question is worth pondering, if all the Russian troops are all cowering in the city, taking the people in the city as hostages, and forcibly forcing back the attack of the Wehrmacht, it will be too much to gain and more than to lose.
After all, in their original battle plan, there was no such thing at all, but to lure the main force of the Russian army out of the city and engage in a field battle with the main force of the Wehrmacht, only in the field can civilian casualties be avoided to the greatest extent. However, when it comes to street fighting, the Wehrmacht is not afraid, isn't there still hundreds of thousands of internal security troops to support, and it is terrible that the Russian army will take ordinary people hostage to blackmail the Wehrmacht troops.
What if the internal guards were able to storm the city of Arthur later? I'm afraid that at that time, there were already several massacres in the city, right? It's just that if this happens, it's not easy for them to explain it to the higher-ups.
"Well, that's a problem! It's a bit tricky! Lu Ming nodded, looking thoughtful.
Yang Ping, who was next to him, saw Lu Ming's appearance, and suddenly had an urge to rush up and give him a shot. However, Yang Pingzhi is also a person who has been a partner with Lu Ming for many years, and he does not dare to say that he has 100% mastery of Lu Ming's methods, but one thing Yang Pingzhi can be sure of is that Lu Ming will never fight a battle that he is not sure of.
Yang Pingzhi didn't speak, just looked at Lu Ming blankly, asking him to continue.
Lu Ming saw that Yang Pingzhi looked humbly taught, and the mood of the active atmosphere suddenly disappeared, just now there was a kind of joking Yang Pingzhi mood, but people did not cooperate, and they looked humbly taught, even if they were thick-skinned, they would not continue to be embarrassed at this time, Lu Ming laughed, shook his arm, and continued: "It's really boring! Forget it, I'll just tell you!
I'm going to give them a hard blow first, and scare those old hairy men half to death first, and then when our troops go up again, won't this battle be easy to fight? Besides, up to now, they have lost thousands of troops before they even see the shadow of our people, so how will they feel when they see our main force? I don't dare to say anything else, the Russian army will never use the matter of taking people as hostages, and even if it does, it will soon give up. ”
Seeing Lu Ming's look like I knew it, Yang Pingzhi didn't feel frowning, although Lu Ming's words were reasonable, but they were too suspenseful, everything was only in Lu Ming's guess, as for what the Russian army would do, no one knew, maybe only the Russian army in the city knew, right?
"Are you so sure?"
"Of course, don't forget what I do." Lu Ming smiled and said with great confidence.
"Lao Lu, this matter is not a joke, are you really sure? Don't make any mistakes at that time, losing your official position is small, if you are sent to a military court, you and my brothers will never have the face to face people in the future! Yang Ping said bluntly and earnestly.
Until now, Yang Pingzhi has experienced the influence of Wang Lin, and he has seen the official position very lightly, but the brotherhood seems to be more important than anything else, although he has started a family, but he is a person, and his heart in the army seems to be a hundred times more than that at home, or even a thousand times.
The comrades-in-arms of the army can be said to be his closest people, if he can die for a certain person, then he will not hesitate to choose to die, but there is a premise, that person must be more important than him. It's naturally good to pay attention to brotherhood, but it's not blind, if a chief of staff wants to die for a small soldier, he will naturally not do such a stupid thing, let alone him, even the soldiers below will not let him do it.
Because in the frogman army, everyone has their own position and their own position, if the commander is to die for a small soldier, then isn't there chaos in this army? If nothing else, at least you have to die worthwhile, right?
"Lao Yang, our two brothers have been partners for so many years, don't you know who I am? If we just sit around and do nothing, maybe it will be like you said, but now we still have something to do, and as long as this thing is done, then I am afraid that the matter of the people being hostages will not happen! Lu Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, he knew what his old partner was thinking, but he wouldn't ask more, the two had different positions and responsibilities, the regiment commander was only responsible for the war, while the chief of staff was responsible for the entire regiment's battle plan and the battle plan on the premise of not disobeying the overall battle plan.
"Our two old partners have been together for so many years, I naturally trust you, but you have to let me know what to do now, right?" Yang Pingzhi smiled a little speechlessly.
Shortly after the morning shelling, the Russian troops were still silent in the pain of casualties and the shock of their hearts. The Imperial Defense Forces of China, the newly established country and its troops, gave them an extremely deep impression in the first battle, and this day will be deeply imprinted in the hearts of all the Russian troops who have come here, and they will never forget it.
The war is on, but life still has to go on, one morning, there were bursts of gossip among the Russian troops, if it were in peacetime, Slivsky might be very angry to come to the troops, desperate to find out the source of the rumors, and then divide the rumors into five horses.
But now even General Slivsky himself has just been able to stand firm, his face is pale, giving people a feeling of a terminal illness, but every time these Slivsky himself feels, he just feels a little scared, but at this time, he seems to have become the most feared person in the entire Russian army.
As for the rumors circulating in the army, Silivsky does not seem to have the energy to investigate anything, and even he himself has no choice but to believe it. When a general is disheartened and has no will to fight, then no matter what kind of army it is, whether it is the main force, the reserve force, or even the cannon fodder unit, they will not be able to play their due level, and the Russian army at this time is exactly like this.
The Russian troops outside are already in a mess, there are Russian soldiers running around everywhere, there are soldiers who put guns everywhere, soldiers who destroy silver women, soldiers who can't find officers, officers can't find soldiers, at this time in Lushun City, it seems that they have seen no wonder, the big war is imminent, but there is no will to fight in Lushun City, they are more like a group of routs, wantonly snatching everything that can be snatched.
After lunch, the internal guard unit of a brigade that had arrived in advance, with the cooperation of the frogman troops, had already assembled under the city of Arthur, and the momentum of a strong army was suddenly displayed in front of the Russian army. And the Russian troops, who saw the opposing soldiers approaching the city with their own eyes, but were helpless, could only sigh again and again.
The idea of using ordinary people as hostages was thrown out of my mind as early as the morning when the message came out, and at this time, thousands of Russian troops did not know what they should do? War? Or not fighting? But the end result seems to be the same, even if you fight? In the end, he will inevitably die.
But what about not fighting? After returning home, not only did they have to face the ridicule of other colleagues, but also the pressure of the higher-ups, and even called treason, and it seemed not impossible to massacre them en masse. And the most depressing thing is that at this time, the strength of the two sides seems to be about the same, but the artillery or something has already fallen into the hands of the enemy.
In one afternoon, the Russian troops were still in a great struggle, and the internal security forces of the Chinese Empire had already invaded the city, and there was no in-depth study of street fighting in the current era, so the first time the internal security troops entered the city of Arthur, the Russian troops panicked and put guns everywhere.
After many years of training, the internal guard units are extremely familiar with street fighting, and although the Russian troops seem to resist everywhere, the real situation is much better than this, and in the face of organized and coordinated attacks, the relatively scattered resistance on the opposite side seems to be not at all like this.
"Your Majesty, the front-line battle report!" Yang Zhiping quietly pushed open the door of Wang Lin's office and placed a front-line battle report on Wang Lin's desk.
