Now Grand Duke Nicholas is also very depressed, he sent people to install mines, and the people of Huaxia ran over to attack as soon as they found out, although it was only a small-scale attack, but it also destroyed the speed at which he installed mines, and even let the area where he installed mines move to his position again and again, which made a large number of officers very dissatisfied.

The second group of Admiral Irry and others who arrived believed that it was the repeated forbearance and excessive defense of Grand Duke Nicholas before that made the army passive everywhere, so that they were defeated one after another. In their opinion, no matter how strong the enemy is, they should attack, rather than huddle here and wait for the enemy to attack, which is really a nest.

There is also the deployment of the minefield that also makes them very angry, Grand Duke Nicholas basically blocked the minefield without leaving a dead end, and did not even leave a place to attack, this is the idea of killing to defend, the Chinese army is really so terrifying?

The reinforcements who just arrived did not appreciate the horror of the Chinese army at all, and many of the previous defeats of those armies were thought to be caused by the light enemy, how strong the strength of the Chinese army can be, how long it has only been since the founding of the country, and a strong army can not be trained in a short period of time.

They didn't pay much attention to the colonial army that the newly established Chinese Empire had defeated the British, after all, the official soldiers of various countries simply looked down on these colonial troops, and to put it mildly, they were just a group of bankrupt merchants wrapped in military uniforms.

In any case, the fact that the Chinese army was able to beat the imperial army into one place and did not dare to attack rashly was also a manifestation of strength, and the new Tsarist Russian reinforcements did not dare to despise it, and they were also very vigilant in their hearts.

In the battalion of the Tsarist army, General Airry and a few high-ranking officers asked for a surprise attack to strengthen their morale and train those recruits by the way.

"No, you don't know how terrible the Huaxia army is, those tanks and airships are difficult to deal with, not to mention the recruits, they are simply going to die. Even if the attack is not now, we can only wait for our supplies to arrive before attacking, whether it is the number of troops or the plain zhì of the soldiers and weapons, we are slightly inferior to the Chinese army, if the attack fails, we will be in a more passive disadvantage. The Grand Duke Nicholas refused without hesitation, he did not think that now was the time to strike.

General Airry said very resolutely: "The morale of the soldiers is very low now, and it is better to rely on mines to block the attack of the Chinese army, and it is better to attack, and attack is the best defense." We need victory, even a small victory to boost morale and make it clear to the soldiers that the Chinese army is not invincible. Blindly retreating and defending will only make the Chinese army more advanced, and when he arrived, His Majesty personally told his subordinates to win the war, and the empire needed victory too much. ”

How did Grand Duke Nicholas not know that the empire needed victory, but the truth is so cruel, how could he know the true strength of the Chinese army without contact, this is not the cowardly Manchu Qing, why don't the people of the empire know this problem?

Tsarist Russia really needs victory, even if it is a small victory, so that the tsar has the confidence to continue to ask for support from Britain and France, and he also needs this to explain to the people, so before the second batch of reinforcements departed, he found Irry and ordered him to be victorious, and if anything happened directly to him.

The tsar still doubted Grand Duke Nicholas, not doubting his loyalty, but the strength of the battle, and the successive defeats made him arrogant and unable to raise his head, and the situation in the Far East surprised him from the very beginning, and China gave him too many "surprises".

"Even so, I can't let you attack, I hope you can stick to my killing orders, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless, and don't use Your Majesty to come out and press me, you are not qualified enough!" Grand Duke Nikolai said very dissatisfied, he was very dissatisfied with the fact that Irry had come out to suppress the Tsar, and a dog raised by a demon monk dared to bite people indiscriminately.

Archduke Nikolai had known that Irry was a native of Rasputyan, and this time he knew that he was tired of it when he led the troops to support him, but he had to give up his previous prejudices for the sake of the overall situation.

The Archduke Nicholas's order was communicated to his nephew as soon as it was issued, and there was no doubt that the Tsar also approved of his order, so it was only natural that the order passed through the whole army.

Irry and the others were very angry when they saw that Grand Duke Nicholas used a killing order to reject their attack, if the Tsar hadn't agreed to the killing order, they wouldn't have been afraid, and if they were killed, it would be estimated that most of the army would have rebelled.

But they didn't give up, and some of them telegraphed directly to the War Secretary, while Airry shrewdly called Guò Rasputyan to ask for an attack.

The Tsar was very troubled, because the Minister of War gave him all the telegrams of the officers, all of which were euphemistic that the army had been cowering on the defensive, lacking sorties, and was very passive waiting for the enemy to come to the door.

He saw that there was no unity within the army, and the most terrible thing was disunity, which also showed that the core of several backbones also had different opinions, otherwise these telegrams would not have reached him without their consent.

However, after thinking about it for a long time, the tsar also felt that there was too much defense, from the beginning to the present, it was defense, and the limited attack also failed, could it be that the emperor's uncle was old and had lost his sharpness?

The Tsar, who needed victory, first struck the officers who asked for the attack, asking them to obey the orders of the Grand Duke Nicholas, and then sent a private telegram to the Grand Duke Nicholas asking him to do his best to achieve one or two victories.

Grand Duke Nicholas, who received the telegram, smiled bitterly, how easy is it to win, why doesn't he want to win, is it just that easy?

Airray and the others quieted down after being beaten, they didn't expect the tsar to trust Grand Duke Nicholas so much, and the royal family was really more reliable.

Just when they were depressed, Grand Duke Nicholas actually summoned them to discuss the matter of attacking the Chinese army, which made their minds unable to turn, how could they change?

After leaving the camp, they were very happy, they thought that Archduke Nicholas had compromised, and they had to prepare for the attack.

To the southeast of Wulianghai, Xu Shuzheng and other more than 100,000 troops did not gather with the large army, they were arranged there by Jiang Fangzhen, waiting for orders.

Xu Shuzheng's troops did not have too many tanks, only less than 20 tanks, because they all entered the Wuliang Sea from the territory of Tsarist Russia, and Jiang Fangzhen did not send too many tanks due to the unfamiliarity with the terrain. Among them, there were some Jews, not many, only 10,000, because Xu Shuzheng's troops were going to enter the territory of Tsarist Russia, so the spectators from various countries did not come to this unit to watch the battle, so in order to avoid exposure, the Jews were sent here.

Xu Shuzheng, who had only joined the Jews for a few months, was very unoptimistic, so he did not send them to the front, but sent them and 30,000 Chinese soldiers to a certain high ground behind the right to garrison.

The high ground is not very high, it is a small hill with some supplies on it.

"York, we've only been studying how we were sent to the battlefield for a few months, and we haven't encountered an enemy yet, and Commander Xu doesn't allow us to go to the front line, so why are we here?" A white man in a Chinese army uniform gnawed on a weed and whined at his companion next to him.

"I heard that it was the decision of the Huaxia Emperor that we go to the battlefield so soon, and you also know that there are many Huaxia soldiers who have also been trained for a few months before going on the battlefield, and we will definitely be able to do what the Huaxia army can do. I really hope that we can also produce a person like the Emperor of China, then our restoration of the country can be realized. York said, clutching the gun in his hand.

"Haha, isn't that good? I've long wanted to teach the arrogant polar bears a lesson, their brutality makes us Jews lose no idea how many people they have lost, and I'm relieved to see the Chinese army beat them down one after another, if only I could kill a few with my own hands. Another Jewish soldier said.

A few people whispered in the trenches about their thoughts and feelings after coming to the Chinese army, so it is good to talk about it, it can drive away the thick sleepiness, and the trenches in the middle of the night are also very boring.

Although there is only one trench in this small high ground, the defense is still very strong, and the dense machine guns are erected next to the small mound of the trench, and the cannons and other things are also very well in place. Ever since the defense of the Third Group was almost successfully attacked by Tsarist Russia because of the light enemy, the responsible persons of the various armies did not dare to be sloppy in their defense, and even if they knew that the enemy would not attack, they would build a strict military defense.

Suddenly, a red firework not far in front of it rose and exploded in the sky, and several Jewish soldiers who were still discussing it just now looked at the fireworks in disbelief for a moment, and then picked up the horn and blew it like chicken blood.

The enemy attacked, the Tsarist army came to attack, and finally had to fight the Tsarist army, this is the common sentiment of the Jewish soldiers who were guarding the trenches.

At the sound of the enemy's attack signal and the horn, the Chinese soldiers jumped up as fast as they could, got dressed, gathered with their weapons, and then ran to the trenches to prepare for battle, the whole process took less than three minutes.

Soon they saw groups of torches rushing towards them, and many officers saw the Tsarist uniforms illuminated by the torches with their binoculars and ordered to open fire without saying a word.

First, the artillery shelled the dense torches, only to see those shells rushing towards the torches like meteors, and soon they fell to the ground and exploded, and the dazzling light flashed everywhere.

Seeing the enemy's cannonballs, the Russian soldiers dispersed very tacitly, and after entering the firing range, they began to shoot at the enemy, and the torches were extinguished.

"Da !!"

Although the Chinese machine gunners could not see the Russian soldiers, they fired at the dense gunfire, and after a while the gunfire became sparse.

The Russian soldiers in the dark looked at the Chinese soldiers in the open and shot, so they were not excited. The Chinese soldiers could only rely on the sound of gunfire to shoot back, but the Jewish soldiers of the new recruits were very pitiful, and they did not know how to judge the enemy's position by the sound of gunfire.

Although the Chinese army is very passive, they believe in their own defense, those dense machine guns are not decorations, they will tear apart the enemy in front of them.

The bottom of the Chinese trenches was very flat, there was nothing to hide, even the trees were few, even in the dark, the Tsarist soldiers did not dare to get too close, and those machine guns shot a lot of Tsarist soldiers in one sweep.

Suddenly, a large number of torches were thrown from the Chinese trenches, and these torches exposed the positions of the Russian soldiers, and the Chinese soldiers frantically took advantage of the fact that the torches were not extinguished to shoot the Russian soldiers.

The Russian soldiers who were attacked by this surprise attack did not retreat, but retreated to both sides, and some of the torches were not extinguished.

"Boom !!"

The artillery of the Tsarist Russian army also began to exert its might, and one shell after another rushed towards the Huaxia trenches, and soon exploded in the Huaxia trenches.

With a thud, York pounced on his companion, his abdomen dissected by several fragments of shells, and his intestines mixed with blood flowed out. The fallen soldier was also stuck in the shoulder with a piece of shrapnel, "I killed three ......" York held his breath after speaking, and the rescued Jewish soldier remained in tears.
