Lü Shun, the Governor's Office of the Kanto Governor, this Kanto is not the Kanto region of Fuso, but an institution set up by Fuso in the Liaodong Peninsula to manage Lüshun and other places.

The governor of Kwantung, Fukushima Yasu, was speechless for a long time after receiving the news that Liaojing had fallen, he couldn't imagine that the Chinese army would solve those pigtailed troops so quickly, and now the entire Lüshun City was exposed to the Chinese army, and he could only defend the city and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Fusang's Kwantung Prefecture now has only the Liaodong Peninsula of Lü Shunkou's generation, and has previously set up branches in various parts of the three eastern provinces, but because of the outbreak of war, the distribution except for the Liaodong Peninsula was basically wiped out by the Northeast Army, and even the railway garrison stationed in Lüshun to Changchun was forced to withdraw to Lüshun, and the Manchuria Railway basically fell.

Fukushima Yasumasa regretted why he had agreed to allow the newly appointed Minister of War to send Jun troops to support North Korea, as Lu Shun's troops were insufficient and his defense was empty. When the Northeast army rushed into Korea all the way to Korea, Fukushima Yasumasa had a conflict with the new army about whether Lü Shun's army would go to support North Korea, and he believed that the North Korean army was enough to deal with the Northeast army, and even if it couldn't, most of the troops in such an important place as Lü Shun should be transferred out, and they would not be able to guarantee Lü Shun's safety once they encountered an attack by the Chinese army.

However, the Minister of War did not think that the Huaxia army could capture Lü Shun, and it was a major matter to support Korea, and he could not let the Northeast army enter Korea to make trouble, and resolutely ordered the army of Kwantung Prefecture to support Korea.

Although the governor of Kwantung was a combination of military and political affairs, the handling of military and political affairs was under the jurisdiction of the Minister of War, so a contradiction arose.

Fukushima Yasumasa himself also holds the rank of major general, and the new army minister moved the prime minister out if nothing happened, so Fukushima Yasumasa had to obey the order to transfer troops to North Korea. Who knew that the submarines in China forced Fusang's warships to dare not go out of their homes, and they could transport the army back again, not to mention the reinforcements in Fusang, so they could only wait for reinforcements from the army.

At the Governor's Palace, Yasumasa Fukushima and Major General Koichiro Tachibana, the commander of the Kanto Division, and Major General Masasuke 02 Hamame, a staff officer, were discussing how to deal with the current crisis.

The Kwantung Division was temporarily reorganized from the Kwantung Independent Mixed Brigade established during the Northeast Negotiations, and the first Kwantung Army in history was officially established in 1919, and the first commander was Major General Koichiro Tachibana.

Koichiro Tachibana was selected as the first commander of the Kwantung Division because he had served in Fuso Juntun in China and Korea and had rich experience in colonial management.

Fukushima Yasumasa said worriedly: "Now that the Chinese army has entered the area of Lü Shunkou, I believe that the news that Liaojing, the imperial capital of Manchukuo, has been captured, so I won't say more!" The military department and the prime minister gave a death order, absolutely to hold Lu Shun, wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and it will be nearly half a month at the earliest, so you can only rely on the efforts of the kings! ”

"Your Excellency the Governor, it is impossible for the Chinese army to capture Lüshun in a short period of time with these troops, and the materials in the city are very sufficient, enough for us to spend for half a year. In half a year, maybe the entire three eastern provinces will be empire's! Tachibana Koichiro said firmly.

02 Major General Hamamen and Masuke have a different opinion, how could the Chinese army attack the Liaodong Peninsula without certainty, you must know that Lü Shun was built into an incomparably strong fortress by the empire, which is comparable to Vladivostok in Tsarist Russia.

"Your Excellency Commander, don't forget how the Vladivostok Empire attacked and defeated it in the first place, who knows if there will be spies in the city, and no matter how much supplies are broken in the city wall, it will not be useful. What's more, the strength of the Chinese army is enough to surround Lü Shuncheng, so it will not take long for the mines we have deployed to be cleared by the Chinese army. ”

02 Major General Hamamen Masuke's words made Fukushima Yasumasa and Major General Tachibana Koichiro's hearts change, in the recent Battle of Vladivostok, their Fuso army relied on the Fuso talents in Vladivostok to capture Vladivostok, otherwise they don't know how long it would take to capture it.

Fukushima Yasumasa's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and the worry in his heart was even worse, "There is a curfew, the people in the city are not allowed to come out at night, and they are not allowed to approach the city wall during the day, and the soldiers must patrol strictly. In addition, the people in the city should not participate in the war, and the matter of Duwan is a bloody lesson, and they are forced to use the private soldiers of those big families again. ”

"The most important thing now is to face the attack of the China fleet, although we have a lot of mines, but the China army is not a fool, as long as we clean up a part of it, let the range of the warship reach Lu Shun, this is the problem!" Koichiro Tachibana also knew what he was thinking about simplicity just now.

“……”

A few people couldn't discuss how to deal with the Huaxia Navy, so they had to give this problem to the country to have a headache.

After the Huaxia army conquered Liaojing, they rushed to the city of Lü Shun without stopping, and surrounded Lü Shun without saying a word. The strength of the Fusang army in the city The Huaxia army has long been figured out, and the Fusang army of only 5,000 is like relying on the city wall to defend Lü Shun, which is simply naïve.

"In a few days, I will use the Fuso army to test the power of the conscienceless cannon!" The commander of the artillery regiment of the Huaxia army muttered.

After the Chinese army besieged the city, it immediately attacked from four sides, and one after another shells went towards Lü Shuncheng, and the sound of guns and cannons was endless.

On the first day of the siege, the Chinese army did not make much progress, and the conventional artillery shells did not work against this military fortress, but they built their own trenches not far from the city, allowing the soldiers to snipe the Fusang soldiers on the city wall in the trenches.

At the railway not far north of Lü Shun, a train from Fengtian City was loaded with hundreds of huge oil drum-like cannons, which were the unconscionable cannons that the commander of the artillery regiment said.

Conscienceless cannon generally refers to the flying thunder cannon, simply put, it is a launcher that uses a gasoline barrel to launch an explosive package, also known as an explosive projectile canister, its main body is an empty gasoline barrel, after filling it with propellant, put the explosive package bundled into a disc shape, and then ignite the propellant, you can throw ten kilograms of explosive package to a distance of 150-200 meters. This kind of cannon is an earthen cannon researched by the liberation/liberation army of later generations, and its power is even more amazing than that of cannons.

The conscienceless cannon is that Qin Yu saw that it was very difficult to use ordinary cannons for siege in Tsarist Russia and the three eastern provinces, but he was suffering from not studying large-caliber artillery in advance, so he thought of this strange turtle cannon.

In order to meet the range of the unconscionable cannon, the trenches of the Chinese army were very close to the city wall, and they were attacked by the Fusang soldiers on the city wall.

At dawn, the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly cheered up and continued to fight, because of the small number of troops, soldiers were needed on all four city walls, so they took turns to rest very frequently, and each time they rested for about half an hour.

Although the Chinese army also fought for a day, even if there were tools to climb the city, they did not use it, because the Fusang army sprinkled water under the city, and a thick layer of ice formed on the city walls and the ground, and the soldiers would slip as soon as they walked up, let alone use the tools to climb the city.

"Report to Your Excellency Commander, dozens of huge oil drums suddenly appeared in the trenches of the Chinese army under the city, and it seems that the situation is an unknown type of cannon!" An officer ran up to Koichiro Tachibana and reported.

Tachibana Koichiro no longer rested, and hurriedly took the binoculars to look down, and sure enough, there were more than twenty huge oil drums standing diagonally in the trenches of Huaxia Cointreau, if it was really some kind of cannon, the huge and dark hole of Hua's mouth was simply numb.

"Could it be that this is a new type of cannon for the army, how does it look weird, and gasoline drums can also be used as cannons? Check out the other walls to see if there are those under the other walls! After Tachibana Koichiro finished speaking, he went directly to Hamamen and Masasuke to Major General, because he had a bad premonition in his heart.

"My chief of staff, it seems that the Chinese army has conjured up a lot of gasoline barrels overnight, I don't know what they are for, but I always have a bad premonition in my heart, and I have to find a way to get rid of these gasoline barrels immediately." Koichiro Tachibana expressed his anxiety about the gasoline drum to Major General Masamu Masake.

Major General Hamamian Gasuke nodded, "I also saw it, according to the news from the soldiers, there are such oil drums on all sides, I think it is a new weapon of the Chinese army, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to get these things into the trenches." But I think the range of this weapon should not be large, otherwise the army of the branch yesterday would not have only attacked the city, it is estimated that it was to cover the soldiers and build trenches, but unfortunately we couldn't see it at the time. Damn Tegaoko, there's no news about this thing at all! ”

Then Major General Hamame Masuke said: "Since we are so close, immediately find the soldiers with the best strength and let them blow up the oil barrel with grenades!" ”

The Fuso army did not have much stock of grenades in Lüshun, and most of them were taken away by the troops who went to support North Korea, so they would not use them lightly unless they had to.

In the trenches of the Chinese army, as the small flags waved in the hands of the commander, huge oil drums began to exert their might, and huge flames were extinguished after just a single squirt from the mouth of the huge oil drums, and there were more than 20 explosive bags in the sky. The explosive pack exploded as it approached the city wall, and the earth-shattering explosions rang out one after another.

"Ahhh!!hhh

There was a series of eerie screams at the place where the explosive pack exploded, and a huge crater appeared directly in the city wall where the explosive pack hit.

Most of the Fusang soldiers who fell on the city wall had no wounds, but they were bleeding from seven holes, and they were obviously shocked to death by the explosion waves, and those groaning Fusang soldiers had rusty iron nails stuck everywhere, and some were directly killed by the rusty iron nails.

Such a tragic situation appeared on several other city walls, a large number of Fusang soldiers were recruited and fell, and those Fusang Hercules who wanted to throw grenades to blow up the conscience cannon were basically affected.
