Chapter 85: Determination
Judging from the two days of fighting, not only do we want a quick victory, but the little devils also have such a mind, trying to break through our army's defense line at any cost, so can we use this to defeat the little devils? After thinking about it, the corners of Ren Chao's mouth couldn't help but show a sly smile, "Someone!" Go and call Wang Jing, Meng Yan, and Sun Huazhong to me. ”
"Yes!" The guards answered, and hurried out to deliver the order.
"Baga Ya Road!" At an observation post in the forward position of the Japanese army, Katsura Taro, who saw that the attack had failed again, couldn't help but curse.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, is angry! We've done our best, but the enemy is too strong and cunning! He believes that if he wants to defeat such a strong enemy, he must not be in a hurry, and he must think in the long run. Xiao Chuan persuaded again.
"Humph!" Katsura Taro snorted coldly and didn't speak, although Ogawa was only a major general, but after all, he was the chief of staff of the First Army, although Katsura Taro was the temporary commander-in-chief of the Japanese army on the North Road, but after all, he did not officially become the commander of the First Army, so for Ogawa again, Katsura Taro still had to give some face, if someone else said such a thing, Katsura Taro would probably have scolded him a long time ago.
"It is necessary to capture Seoul as much as possible, and the teacher's head is still hanging on the walls of Seoul, which is an insult to the teacher! It's an insult to the Great Japanese Locust Army! As soldiers of the Empire, can we ignore the glory of the Empire because of our greed for life and fear of death? After a while, the more Katsura Taro thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but say loudly.
"Hay!" When a group of Japanese officers saw that Katsura Taro was angry, they were frightened and dared to say more. Ogawa and Tachimi Naowen saw that Katsura Taro had moved out of the dead ghost Yama Prefecture Youtomo, so it was naturally difficult to say anything.
"Immediately see Major General Shangwen!" Katsura Taro shouted coldly.
"Hay!" Immediately saw Shang Wen respectfully responded.
"Continue to organize the offensive, concentrate superior forces, and tear a hole in the Qing army's defense line for me!" Katsura Taro roared loudly with a gloomy old face.
"Hay!" Seeing that Shang Wen did not dare to disobey the order, he could only bow down and receive the order. Immediately saw that Shangwen thought about it, turned his head and said to the commander of the 18th Wing, Masadasa Sato, "Sato-kun, you immediately gather the main force of the 18th Wing to attack the enemy's left flank with all your might, and be sure to tear a hole in the enemy's defense line." I will send other troops to attack the enemy's central and right flank positions with all their strength in order to contain the main force of the Tiger Army. The success or failure of this battle is here, please! ”
"Hay! Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the humiliation is guaranteed to complete the mission! Sato replied respectfully with his head bowed.
Seeing that Shang Wen nodded in satisfaction, he immediately turned to Katsura Taro and said, "Does Your Excellency the Division Commander have any instructions?" This time, he will personally go to the front line to supervise the battle, in order to win! ”
"Yo Xi!" Katsura Taro nodded happily, "With the Lijian Jun personally supervising the battle, my Japanese Locust Army will definitely be able to defeat the Qing Army, I will prepare a banquet for the monarchs to celebrate their achievements, and wait for the triumphant return of the monarchs!" ”
"Hay!"
"Let's all go down and prepare! Launch an all-out general offensive early tomorrow morning! Katsura Taro finally said.
"Hay!"
……
In the command room of the Tiger Ben Army, Ren Chao and several of his generals gathered around the sand table, and several staff officers stood in the outer circle, holding a paper clip and pen in their hands, ready to record some important orders at any time.
Ren Chao glanced up at the generals and said with a smile, "I have called you over today to discuss how the next battle should be conducted. In my judgment, the reason why the Japanese attacked many times, regardless of casualties, was because the Japanese commander was desperate to end the battle as much as possible. I think we can take advantage of the vacans' eagerness to win, lure the enemy deeper, and then divide the enemy and annihilate him. ”
"It seems that adults have a plan to break the enemy! In that case, let's hear it! Wang Jing asked impatiently.
Ren Chao smiled slightly, pointed to the sand table and said with a smile, "I think that although several attacks by the Japanese invaders have been repelled by our army, the Japanese invaders have also figured out the reality of our army. Therefore, the next attack of the Japanese will be more fierce and more targeted! ”
Wang Jing frowned and thought for a moment, "What my lord means is that the little devils will concentrate their forces to attack the weak points of our defense next!" ”
"Little devils have always been like this!" Ren Chao nodded and said, "So where do you think the focus of the little devil's attack will be?" ”
"Naturally~!" Wang Jingxin opened his mouth and came quickly, and Meng Yan next to him couldn't help but pull Wang Jing, and took the opportunity to interject, "Well! We're not roundworms in the stomach of little devils, it's really hard to say. ”
"What's not to say, the focus of the little devil's attack will definitely be on the left flank! Because the left flank is the weak point of the entire defense line, the little devil has always bullied the weak and feared the hard, and this time he will definitely concentrate superior forces to attack the left flank! "Sun Huazhong is not a fool, he knows that Meng Yan said this just to save face for their Dongxue Army! Although the Dongxue Army has a large number of people, it is really limited in its ability to form combat effectiveness, coupled with its poor equipment and lack of training, it is not an opponent of the little devils at all. And the left flank position of the entire defense line is all defended by the Dongxue Army, which is the weakest point of the entire defense line, which everyone knows very well, Ren Chao did not say it directly, and he just saved some face for the Dongxue Army.
"General Sun is right, the little devil has always been afraid of the weak and the hard, the Dongxue Army is poorly equipped, and it is impossible for the little devil not to see it, so the focus of the little devil's attack will most likely be on the left flank!" Ren Chao nodded and said, "But after the lesson of the last time, the little devil will not give up the attack on the middle and right wing, and in order to prevent the troops of the middle and right flank from supporting the left flank, the little devil will definitely strengthen the offensive on these two roads to contain the strength of our army." ”
"Please rest assured, Lord Ren, my Sun Huazhong will definitely defend the position desperately, if the little devil wants to set foot on our army's position, unless he steps on my corpse!" When Sun Huazhong heard this, he immediately stood up and spoke loudly.
"General Sun, don't be excited! I know that with the courage of General Sun, the little devil wants to break through the left flank defense line, which is tantamount to ascending to the sky! Ren Chao smiled and said to Sun Huazhong, "However, this time it is far from enough to just repel the little devils, we must eliminate as many little devils as possible!" Try my best to solve the battle, the little devils can't afford to drag it out, and we can't afford to drag it out, so I want to finish my work and defeat the main Japanese force on the northern front in one fell swoop! So this time General Sun didn't have to fight hard with the Japanese army, and he was going to lose! The worse the defeat, the better! ”
"What?" Not only Sun Huazhong's eyes widened in surprise, but even Wang Jing, Meng Yan and others couldn't help but widen their eyes at this time, looking at Ren Chao with a puzzled expression, and at this time, Ren Chao had a smile on his face that he thought was very sincere, not like he was joking at all.
