"Your Excellency, Major General?! Now that the ...... has been occupied. ”

The chief of staff's mind hadn't turned around for a while. Yoshimasa Oshima shouted, "Bastard! Could it be that after so many defeats, do you still think that the enemy in front of you is a stupid and cowardly Qing army? The enemy we have to deal with is even more cunning and ferocious! He would never let go of that battlefield lightly! ”

The officers suddenly came back to their senses. That's right, the other party is so powerful, just leave, there is no conspiracy at all, who believes it!

But even if you wake up, it's too late!

No matter how close they are to the battlefield, no matter how fast the herald is, he won't be able to catch up if he runs out of breath!

In Dongxian Ridge, on the steepest rock wall behind Sheren Pass, in a sunken platform, Kong Guanghan and the last few scouts each had a detonator. I could hear the cheers of the Japanese soldiers from the bamboo tube hanging down above, and they looked at each other and smiled, and pressed the handle fiercely!

"Boom! Boom! ”

The entire Cave Immortal Ridge trembled suddenly! It was as if a certain god kicked hard, and more than half of the mountain was covered with soft soil. The ones that were cemented also became unusually soft in a shock. The Japanese soldiers standing at the foot of the mountain could not even maintain their balance!

Yoshimasa Oshima also felt the terrible tremor. He jerked out of the tent and looked over there in horror. I saw several large clusters of blazing light, rising from between the mountains!

It's a terrifying sight that has never been seen before! Even if their previous artillery positions were destroyed and their ammunition exploded, it would not be so fierce!

The smoke and dust of the horizontal impact almost covered the entire position in a piece, and the fireworks pillars that hit the sky. Its stoutness. It's like a burning mountain! Roll to a boil. The flames are raging, the heavens change color, and the earth trembles!

From so far away, they felt a burning heat that touched their souls - how many quercus had been detonated?!

Yoshimasa Oshima closed his eyes in pain, unable to bear to look at it.

The rest of the officers were dumbfounded! They all knew in their hearts that under such a big bang, no matter how many people went up, the same death would have no place to bury. There's no way to survive!

Briton Puley. Desperately draw a cross on his chest. He almost followed him up the mountain before, in that case, his soul must have entered heaven to be judged at this time?

Terrible enemy! Terrible power! Releasing such a large amount of explosives at once, they must be a bunch of crazy people! Terrible madman who doesn't know which madhouse came out of it!

In his knowledge, he had never heard of such a method of warfare. Count how many shells the other side fired over the past few days? How many quercus medicines have been used? You know, it's all advanced smokeless medicine! This luxury and heroism alone are enough to make countless people speechless.

This last big bang, there is no doubt about it. Enough to destroy all traces on the mountain. In this way, I wanted to go up and see it after the war. The idea of surmising the enemy's strength level by leaving clues behind by Tong Guò also fell through.

Yang Hao's plan is actually like this.

On this mountain defense line that he built in half a month, all the fortifications have the essence of the world's advanced war technology. Even a trench, an anti-artillery hole, a machine gun nest, and an artillery position are beyond the imagination of any military power in this era.

But in turn, once these things are discovered by military experts, they can immediately trigger a series of military changes. There is absolutely no hesitation in today's powers, which are constantly pursuing military supremacy.

Yang Hao didn't want him to fight with other countries in the future, and as a result, the other side had a lot of trenches, barbed wire, machine gun forts, and howitzers in the rear. From the end of the nineteenth century to the First World War, he couldn't stand it!

Therefore, when it was built, a lot of holes were opened in advance with rock drills in each fortress, up and down, left and right, inside and outside. The top is temporarily blocked.

After today's withdrawal, the sappers entered, completed the laying of the quercus one tube at a time, divided it into multiple detonators, and gathered it behind the mountain position.

After the Japanese army came up, a sudden explosion caused all the anti-artillery holes to collapse. The steep mountain above the trench was blown from the roots, and tens of thousands of tons of stones that collapsed from above rolled down and were completely buried!

Machine gun nests and the like were all destroyed without pulling them all, even if the artillery positions behind them were cleaned up.

Although it costs a lot of medicine, it ensures that the secret is foolproof to the greatest extent.

Unless the Japanese army spent tens of thousands of people to clean up the entire mountain in a few months, they wanted to find traces, but there was no door!

With such courage and such means, if it weren't for the fact that he came from a different time and space and mastered too advanced technical power, who would dare to be so extravagant in the current generation?

It's just that he didn't have the opportunity to see this magnificent outbreak of unprecedented scale. Even the second layer of defense that had been deployed in Huangzhou could only be defended by some of the men of the Third and Second Companies. He himself, with a large army and the remaining Qing soldiers and wounded, retreated in the direction of Pyongyang as fast as possible.

One qiē, just because he suddenly received a report from Yang Haiwei. The Japanese Combined Fleet has quietly advanced to the waters of the Yellow Sea. Their strength has increased instead of decreasing!

Yang Haiwei's judgment was that the Japanese quietly bought back seven warships of the Chilean Navy. In this way, they have such confidence to go straight to the Beiyang Naval Division.

Such a drastic change made Yang Hao have to temporarily abandon the plan to continue to intercept the delayed Japanese army. Because it is difficult for Yang Haiwei to provide material and transportation support through the Datong River. He had to manage to take his troops and retreat along the lines of the Qing army.

"What a pity! Sure enough, the plan didn't change quickly. Without enough naval power, it is impossible to master the situation of the war. ”

Riding on the horse, Yang Hao sighed helplessly, led the troops, and crossed the neutralization. The Pyongyang line of defense, just ahead.

That night, the waters of the Yellow Sea, Jianghua Bay.

On the newly restored cruiser "Yoshino", the commander of the Japanese 1st Guerrilla Force, Tsuboi Kozo, stood on the command tower and looked to the east for a long time, the sea area where they had fled in a great defeat last time.

It was a fiasco that could be called a stain for life! He went on the expedition with four of the most powerful ships, only to be killed and wounded. He even sacrificed a Togo Heihachiro, who was regarded as the soul of the future of the navy, and that kind of loss was really unacceptable.

He will never forget the ghostly freighter that sent the "Naniwa" to the bottom of the sea with its humble naval guns. As the biggest variable of that battle, he was desperate to meet that ship today. However, it is not to accept the second humiliation. He's going for revenge!

Spit out a mouthful of heavy turbidity, and Tsuboi Hangsan looked back into the distance. Behind the flagship, two other new warships are splitting the waves and moving forward majestically.

It was two of the seven warships quietly bought back from Chile. The original names were called "Bai Lang Gu?" The "Enkarada", as well as the "Esmeralda", are now renamed "Naniwa" and "Takachiho". Replenish the two sunken ships.

The new "Naniwa", with a displacement of up to 4,568 tons, far exceeds the previous one, and even exceeds the flagship "Yoshino". Its main guns are two Armstrong 8-inch 40 caliber rapid-fire guns. Although the caliber of this long-barreled main gun is smaller than that of the original ship's 280mm, it has a higher rate of fire and a longer firing range.

In terms of deterrence, it is not weak at all.

Coupled with a full ten 152mm secondary guns and a speed of up to 22.8 knots, it can be called the representative of the most advanced cruisers in the world today.

With the addition of this one, the strength of the First Guerrilla Force increased dramatically. If this ship had been there that day, it was still unknown who would have won the battle.

Another new "Takachiho", although the tonnage is not as good as the former, but it also has two 10-inch 30-diameter main guns, plus six 152mm secondary guns, and the firepower is still strong!

The First Guerrilla Force, which was thus reconstituted, was only strong and not weak in terms of total attack power!

Even so, Kozo Tsuboi, who was carrying heavy pressure on his shoulders, was not happy at all.

These two warships, as well as the other five warships, were purchased secretly under the personal auspices of His Majesty the Emperor, and by the base camp by forcibly unifying their opinions. The people have never dared to claim the tragic loss of so many warships before.

However, such a sneakiness made the proud Tsuboi Kozo and all the admirals feel humiliated. They would rather defeat the enemy vigorously, even if there is only one boat left, but they can fly the flag openly and return triumphantly.

But now, they have only one way, that is, to completely defeat the Beiyang Naval Division and completely kill the armed cargo ship that has been verified to be owned by the Chinese businessman Yang Hao!

"Shame must be washed away with blood! Those who have sunk in the sea, please be patient and wait a few more days. A qiē humiliation will soon be able to wash the snow for you together. After that, we went home together, smiling contentedly! ”

After praying silently, Tsuboi Kozo turned back to the command tower and ordered the fleet to continue to maintain course and explore and advance to the north.

In their rear, in the main unit of the Combined Fleet, which had once again made a comeback, a mighty and majestic battleship stood out in the ranks. On the top of its mast, a fluttering flagship flag hangs. Commander Yuhiro Ito, like a statue, stood on the bow of the ship for a long time. Behind him, a 238mm Ghanaian gun with a swarthy barrel pointed forward.

"This pose, if taken into a photo, will definitely move a group of enthusiastic teenagers."

Captain Masato thought to himself in his heart, with an unconcealable admiration on his face, stepped forward and asked softly, "Are you still worried about those enemies hiding in the shadows?" ”

Ito Yuhiro glanced at him and nodded slightly: "Yes! It's a very annoying feeling that the situation is completely out of your control. Captain, do you think he'll show up this time? ”

Masato thought seriously about Taro, frowned and said, "The chance of appearing is more than fifty percent." Although the intelligence did not find their current whereabouts, they would still come if someone knew for sure last month and had seen them in Datong River. ”

"So, do you think we'll be able to keep it?"

Ito turned around and stared at the able staff officer with burning eyes.

Masato turned his head subconsciously for Taro, looked at the huge hull that the Imperial Navy had never had, and said word by word: "We can!" (To be continued......)
