Tan Tianhai, the head of the Sixth Regiment, said angrily: "Overturned? How could it be flipped over? ”

The staff officer said: "No way, the center of gravity of the bridge building tank is high, and as soon as the big Lang comes, it must be them who will overturn." ”

Tan Tianhai roared: "Why didn't anyone tell me just now? ”

The staff officer said helplessly: "It was too chaotic when I grabbed the beach just now, everyone's attention was on the Japanese army's anti-tank weapons, so no one cared about it, plus there were a lot of tanks when I was in the water just now, and no one cared about building bridge-building tanks!" ”

Tan Tianhai raised the binoculars and looked at the attack sites of the fourth and fifth regiments, only to see that the night sky was full of light drawn by tracer bullets and the fire generated by the explosions that appeared from time to time. ”

The staff officer immediately went to send a message, and after a while, he came back and said: "Their bridge-building tank also overturned in the water." ”

Tan Tianhai muttered: "What is in the water, I think Lao Zhao and Lao Liu's two old things just don't want to lend them to us, I'm afraid that we will rob the first credit." ”

The staff officer said: "Do you want to send a report to the division commander?" ”

Tan Tianhai shook his head and said: "That's what I said, the bridge-building tanks of Lao Zhao and Lao Liu's regiment must have also turned over in the water, otherwise they wouldn't have been used by us, our Lin Shuai's troops have never stumbled others because of grabbing merit!" ”

The staff officer said: "Then you can only let the infantry go up!" ”

Tan Tianhai snorted and said, "Let the infantry go?" Don't you look at the current virtue of the infantry, one by one they are slapped by the sea like chickens, they can still fight? ”

This was actually heard by the herald on the side, the herald turned out to be an infantryman, and when he heard this, he immediately secretly sent a letter to the three infantry battalion commanders, and when the three infantry battalion commanders heard that the regiment commander actually said this, they sent messages to ask for battle, and Tan Tianhai readily agreed!

The infantry immediately set off, took the ladder down to the bottom of the trench, and then rushed out of the trench and rushed towards the Japanese fortress, the Japanese bunker immediately opened fire, Tan Tianhai immediately ordered the infantry: "You all give me a cat in the trench Don't move, just fish out the Japanese bunker, and leave the rest to the tank." ”

The infantry immediately hid in the trench, the tanks immediately opened fire, the Japanese fortresses were destroyed one by one, for a time Lin Yuan's troops had the advantage, and the Japanese commander Mizuda Mingyuan watched all this from the high ground of the command post, but the distance was far away, and the sky was dark, so he could only understand the battle situation according to the reports of his subordinates.

Knowing that his defense line was broken through layer by layer by Lin Yuan's troops, Mizuta Mingyuan couldn't help but feel anxious, and thought: "If the No. 3 landing position is broken through, then the No. 1 and No. 2 will have no need to defend, so we must hold the No. 3 landing position no matter what, but the No. 3 landing position is attacked by both sides, and there is no foreign aid!" ”

Thinking of this, Mizuta Mingyuan picked up the phone and connected to Aso Yaren, the commander of the Eighth Division, and said, "Aso-kun, why haven't your troops broken through the defense line of Lin Yuan's troops on the road?" ”

Aso Anren said helplessly: "We can't help it, Lin Yuan's troops have increased their strength, and their firepower is very strong!" ”

Mizuta Mingyuan said: "Aso-kun, didn't you still have an advantage just now? Why can't you defeat Lin Yuan's troops in just a while? ”

Aso Anren said: "Alas, Lin Yuan's troops have increased a lot...... It's useless to say this now, I'm going to command the battle, hoping to break through the defense line of Lin Yuan's troops as soon as possible. ”

It turned out that after Shen Xin learned of the important role of the blocking battle, he immediately ordered the reserves, the seventh and eighth regiments, to land from the rocky beach and cooperate with the third regiment to fight.

Anyway, Lin Yuan's troops have tank guns that can complete long-distance precision strikes, heavy machine guns with high lethality, and even grenade launchers that can fire grenades, how can the Japanese army fight? The artillery was not as far as Lin Yuan's troops, nor was it as accurate as Lin Yuan's troops, so they could only rely on flesh and blood to rush hard, how could they be moved? That's hard power! An army without hard power will never be able to win a battle!

At three o'clock in the morning of 12 February, the commander of the defenders of the Japanese No. 3 position and the commander of the 21st Wing, Yoshihiro Shimatani, sent a telegram to Mizuta Akeyuan: "Our position has been broken by Lin Yuan's troops on all fronts, our army has burned the military flag, buried the flag crown deeply, and burned all the written materials. ”

Mizuta Mingyuan sighed when he received this telegram and said, "The third position is definitely going to be lost!" Immediately send a telegram to General Nogi to report on the state of the battle. ”

After reading the telegram, Nogi Noshinori swept away the previous arrogance, and he knew very well in his heart that as soon as the No. 3 landing field was lost, Lin Yuan's large army would drive straight into and directly attack Qingjin, Nogi Noshinori sighed and thought: "The only way now is to shrink the defensive line, hold Qingjin, and then mobilize our troops in Jizhou and other places to encircle Lin Yuan's troops!" ”

Nogi Noshinori then said: "Send a telegram to Mizuda Mingyuan, tell them to withdraw from the No. 1 and No. 2 landing sites and stick to Qingjin!" The operator nodded heavily and sent a telegram.

Nogi Noshinori listened to the "tick-tock" sound of the telegram, while silently pondering, after a while, the sound of the telegram stopped, Nogi Noshinori turned to the telephone operator and said, "Pick me up from Incheon Port, Commander of the Combined Fleet, Togo Heihachiro." ”

The phone was quickly connected, and Nogi Noshinori said, "Togo-kun, shouldn't your wing fleet show off its skills?" ”

Heihachiro Togo said, "General Nogi, our fleet is ......"

Nogi Noshinori said angrily: "Enough, Dongxiang, I don't want to listen to the excuse that you can't dispatch the fleet anymore, I told you when Lin Yuan's warship appeared outside Qingjin Port, let you send the fleet to protect our port, I also sent this news to the command, and the order of the headquarters also reached you, but you openly disobeyed the order, and you have not sent the navy for so many days!" ”

Heihachiro Togo smiled: "Nogi-kun, don't be angry......"

Nogi Noshinori snorted coldly and said, "Don't be angry? How can I not be angry? Now that Lin Yuan has occupied our landing ground, he will soon attack Cheongjin from there, and then Hamgyong Mountain will not be able to protect it, what Hamgyong Mountain means to us and to the emperor You don't know what it means, right? ”

Nogi Noshinori didn't give Togo Heihachiro the slightest chance to speak, and then said: "Togo-kun, if your combined fleet doesn't go out again, I'm going to laugh at your navy for being cowardly cowards!" ”
