In the war room, on the huge combat map, the flag belonging to the eighth and ninth divisions was pulled out, and the two permanent divisions of the Japanese army, in the day and night attacks, have been completely defeated, especially the raid of the second battalion of Zhou Yu's 117th regiment, which directly hit their vital point, not only the two lieutenant generals and division commanders were prisoners, the main officers at all levels, 3 wing commanders, and 5 team captains were captured by a group, and the most important thing is that their division and regimental flags, wing flags and brigade flags, including some important texts, All were seized.

After the surprise attack, both divisions had no room for resistance, and even less time to destroy these main bunjiàns, which also became trophies in the northwest. Without these, even if there is still a part of the Japanese army scattered, it is no longer a threat, and when the day comes, and the night can no longer help them to cover up, the end is doomed.

Cai Ye was in the command headquarters, continued to mobilize troops, and it has been determined that the other side is all in the encirclement, and the follow-up first division and other troops should also speed up, so that the encirclement is more detailed, so that they have nowhere to escape.

Almost annihilated most of the 8th and 9th Divisions in the northwest, and the news of the defeat of the remaining troops was transmitted to Cai Ye at the same time, another good news also reached Qingdao, Cheng Biguang after several hours of pursuit, especially after nightfall, with the help of airships and a little luck, the final annihilation of the Japanese Combined Fleet, after capturing two destroyers, with the booty, is returning to Qingdao.

This urgent message was transmitted to Yang Yuanzhao, and he nodded with satisfaction, there was already a complete encirclement on land. It is estimated that the possibility of these Japanese troops escaping is extremely small, and how many land forces will be annihilated. None of this matters, the key is still in the navy. If the Navy does not do its full job, then there are some shortcomings.

It took such a long time and cost a huge price, Yang Yuanzhao arranged such a big game, not to annihilate how many Japanese troops on land, the main purpose was the Japanese Navy, which must destroy most of the strength of the Japanese Navy at one time. He was more wary of the Japanese navy.

In just 20 years, it was able to defeat the Beiyang Naval Division and then the Russian Navy, and gradually came to the current stage, and the Japanese Navy seems to have a certain aura. For such a long time, step by step to today, any wrong step will be beaten back to the original shape, creating the arrogance and unscrupulousness of the Japanese Navy. In the future. In World War II, it was able to compete with the United States, and after losing to the United States, it was disarmed. This is the prototype of the conference.

Yang Yuanzhao has never underestimated the Japanese Navy, and in a certain way, he must attach great importance to this navy. Even if it is an overwhelming advantage, I don't pay attention to it a little. will turn over. China has Yang Yuanzhao's storage zài, and there is an all-in-one golden finger. Lucky to get out the Fantasy class and Orion change, these two warships, Yang Yuanzhao believes, even if they get to Europe, they are also first-class, especially the Fantasy class, which is almost a super battleship with integrated attack and defense speed, much higher than the super dreadnoughts of this era.

A battleship does not necessarily represent a qiē, a powerful warship can only play a role if it is manipulated in human hands. Compared with Japan, China's worst thing is its navy, to be exact, it should be time. There is not enough time, enough time to train enough naval soldiers, and not enough time for the northwest to have a tradition of a navy, after all, China is a land power, and the navy will only develop the sea after solving the land affairs, which is the opposite of Japan.

Japan is an island country, and the only thing that island countries need to pay attention to is the sea, and if they cannot gain the advantage of the sea, Japan cannot talk about land at all. It will take Japan 20 years to gradually consolidate its naval foundation, step by step from a small naval country in the last class, to the position of a naval power, and to be able to explain all the things that Japan did back then.

Before the First Sino-Japanese War, Beiyang spent a huge amount of money to build the Beiyang Fleet, which can definitely crown the whole of Asia, and is the most powerful fleet in Asia.

From that time on, Japan began to plot to deal with the Beiyang, the back of a series of more strange warships, is to deal with the Dingzhen two ships, it turned out that these battleships are not very useful, what really works is those fast battleships, rapid-fire guns and picric acid, these things allowed Japan to finally defeat the Beiyang Fleet, just like that, there is no way to sink the Dingzhen two ships, relying on the army that is far worse than the navy, Japan won the victory from the land, and obtained 230 million compensation from the Qing government, And in one fell swoop, it laid the foundation for Japan's strong power.

10 years later, during the Russo-Japanese War, Japan was still in absolute weakness, even the tonnage of warships, only a fraction of Russia's, but he still dared to challenge, with the support of Britain, France and the United States, Japan overshadowed Russia, the Russian fleet came from thousands of miles, even the bottom of the ship below has not been cleaned, the power crew has not been replaced, the sailors have sailed for about a year, lack of supplies, the combat effectiveness is extremely low, after arriving in East Asia, hurriedly fighting with the Japanese army, failure is inevitable, At a small cost, Japan annihilated most of the Russian Expeditionary Force, and finally made Russia, the old power, admit defeat and win the Russo-Japanese War.

Because of this, it was impossible for Yang Yuanzhao to let go of the Japanese fleet, if he couldn't kill most of the Japanese warships at once, he would rather hide the fangs first and do nothing. The warships of more than 100,000 tons, plus more than 10,000 sailors, are equivalent to killing all the things that Japan has accumulated over the past 20 years at once, and this is an incredible result for the northwest. Without these, even if Japan still has a foundation and a foundation, it will not be possible to restore these forces in a short period of time, and it will be a few years later, at the speed of the northwest, the first process of warships and the opening of various schools, after a certain number of years, the northwest is no longer afraid of Japan, and even with its population and economic advantages, it will overwhelm Japan, so that Japan will no longer be able to turn the sky.

China itself has a unique environment, otherwise, how could China have always been ahead of the world, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it lagged behind, was caught up by the Western powers, and even a country like Japan appeared, which is the biggest challenge to China. As long as Japan can be suppressed, when Asia is China's and Asia's, China will once again stand at the top of the world by virtue of its population far exceeding that of other countries in the world, surpassing the world's top science and technology, and huge production capacity.

The elimination of the Japanese Combined Fleet is equivalent to a milestone-like achievement, and even in the next further actions, there will be no hindrance from Japan, which is extremely beneficial to the development of the northwest, and can even gradually recover the territory belonging to China, Taiwan and the Northeast, and even North Korea, these must be taken.

Cai Ye is an army general, after hearing that the sea has been completely victorious, he did not feel much and excited, compared to the sea, he paid more attention to Lu Hang, just congratulated, his eyes were still on the remaining Japanese army, the Japanese army in the northwest, it is no longer worth mentioning, as long as the sun rises, they will either become prisoners, or be crushed by the reconnaissance group, they have lost their establishment, scattered a group of thousands of people, there is no combat effectiveness at all. The thousands of wounded soldiers in the center, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, did not have much combat effectiveness, he did not advance at all, but stopped in place, and it seemed that he had no intention of taking the opportunity to break through. However, the team of Japanese troops to the north was very cunning, and it was actually broken into pieces and divided into more than 12 teams, so that the airship had no way to monitor at all, and it was only followed by a team of almost 2,000 people, and it was really not clear where the others went.

"Kamio Mitsutomi is really not simple!" Cai Ye approvingly, he has compressed the Japanese army to a range of more than ten kilometers, but it is impossible to fortify everywhere, especially in the dark night, 6 regiments, a division of the team, there will definitely be omissions, this may be the purpose of Kamio Mitsutomi.

"So what do we do?" Yang Yuanzhao asked a little nervously, if an army with a division like a wolf and a tiger really escaped from their encirclement and walked to various parts of Shandong, it would be a big trouble, and maybe the people of Shandong would return to huge losses.

"In response to all changes, the 6 regiments will not move, and the place they are guarding now is the best place, unless it is a small group of enemy troops, a large group of men, it is almost impossible to escape, just continue to mobilize men and horses, and gradually thicken the encirclement, they will not be able to escape!" Cai Ye said confidently.

The order was issued through the radio waves, and Cai Yi ordered all the troops to hold it steadily, without worrying about the problem of flares and bullets, and once they encountered the enemy, they must be beaten hard.

Cai Yi's order was very timely, not long after it was issued, the three regiments fortified in the north, in three directions, all rang out gunfire, some Japanese troops crashed into their positions, there were quite a few of them, fortunately, with the help of flares and fortifications, they fought steadily, with machine guns and mortars, they taught these Japanese troops who collided with them, and it only took ten minutes to repel their attack.

All the soldiers were nervous, and they knew that the number of remaining Japanese troops was about 30,000, and that they might have a complete 18th division in front of them, and if they attacked with all their might, the pressure they would be under would be very great, and they had to go all out.

But then, it was calm, they did not continue the attack, as if it was a temptation, they disappeared without a trace, and the 18th Division did not continue the offensive at all. (To be continued......)
