PS: The second update arrives, ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes! Thank you for the book friend Yi Sheng's only one person, Niu A Niu, happy party, military power in the world, and thousands of hands for the reward!

In the lower reaches of the Prince River, a large army is crossing the river. Because the bridge over the river has long been blown up, now there are only two pontoon bridges on the river, and not far from these two pontoon bridges, sappers are building the third and fourth pontoon bridges.

Soldiers of the Jilin Army, wearing dark green uniforms, are crossing the river one by one. This unit is the instructor of the Jilin Army who had just finished the Liaozhong Campaign and rushed to Liaoyang. However, the target of the instructor's march is not Liaoyang, which is in full swing, but Haicheng, south of Liaoyang.

At present, the second division of the Japanese army has already broken its head under Liaoyang City, and although they still have more than 10,000 people, there is not much real combat strength left. Wu Haoxuan did not plan to let go of this division of the Japanese army, but directly led the army to outflank the rear road of the Japanese army, preparing to completely encircle and annihilate the Japanese army under Liaoyang City.

In addition to the instructors, the 8th Infantry Division of the Jilin Army was also outflanking the Japanese army from another direction. It's just that the roads in Changbai Mountain are difficult to navigate, and the marching speed of the 8th Infantry Division has been greatly affected. But after a long journey, we are finally about to reach the intended location.

"Young Marshal, telegram from General Shi of the 1st Division." Li Yanling handed the telegram to Wu Haoxuan.

Wu Haoxuan took a look, and then his face was happy: "General Shi, they fought well!" Almost all of the main forces of the Japanese Second Division were annihilated in the battles of the Shahe defense line and the Shoushan-Longdingshan defense line. Although the Japanese army advanced to Liaoyang City, it was a complete fool's dream to defeat the 1st Division and capture Liaoyang. This time, one of the divisions of the Japanese army could not escape. ”

The encirclement and annihilation of a reorganized division of the Japanese army was undoubtedly a great victory. Even in the Russo-Japanese War, the Russian army did not achieve such a great victory. If the Jilin Army can do all this, then the myth of the invincibility of the Japanese army in everyone's minds will collapse with a bang. Future wars will be much easier to fight.

"Where has our vanguard arrived?" Wu Haoxuan asked.

The Japanese 2nd Division had already suffered heavy losses, so the next thing was to surround them and eat them in one bite. Of course, how to eat this Japanese army has to be planned in detail. With the strength of the instructor, the 1st and 8th Divisions, there was no problem at all in eliminating the remaining 10,000 people of the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army. However, Wu Haoxuan wanted to extend the victory even further.

The Japanese Korean army is marching northeast and is expected to reach the Sino-North Korean border in just one or two days. That's two Kind A divisions. In addition, if Japan learns that the Second Division is in trouble, it will certainly send the other two divisions that have already been mobilized to China as well. That's a full four divisions, nearly 100,000 troops. In terms of the current strength of the Jilin Army, it is not impossible to defeat the 100,000 elite Japanese Army. But I will definitely pay a big price.

What's more, there are still 20 divisions in Japan that have not been mobilized, and once the Japanese begin to mobilize recklessly, they will be besieged by hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops. When the time comes, it will be difficult for the Jilin Army to fight. Therefore, Wu Haoxuan hoped to be able to destroy the living forces of the Japanese army as much as possible before the arrival of the main force of the Japanese army.

For example, if two divisions of the Japanese Korean Army were eaten in one bite before the Japanese troops were transferred from the country, the pressure would be much less. If we can eat the two Japanese divisions transferred from China in one fell swoop, then the battle will be won. With five divisions already lost, it was impossible for the Japanese to send more troops to the northeast.

Even if the Japanese had such intentions, they would not have such strength. Now Japan's finances are overwhelmed, and mobilizing five divisions to deal with the Jilin Army is already their limit. If more troops were to be mobilized, the Japanese Ministry of Finance would not be able to come up with the money at all. Without money, it's all empty talk.

"Young Marshal, the reconnaissance battalion reports that they are less than five kilometers away from Haicheng. The 1st Regiment was also only a dozen kilometers away from Haicheng. At present, Haicheng only has a brigade of the baggage wing of the 2nd Division of the Japanese army, with more than 200 people, in addition to some doctors and nurses from the field hospital, as well as those who have not yet been transported back to China. Li Yanling said.

"Send a telegram to the reconnaissance battalion and take Haicheng." Wu Haoxuan ordered directly. The reconnaissance battalion was the most elite unit of the instructors, and it would be no problem for them to deal with a heavy squadron of the Japanese Army. As for the doctors and nurses in the field hospital, they have no combat effectiveness.

"By the way, let the reconnaissance battalion capture those doctors and nurses in the field hospital, don't kill them, it's still useful to keep them." Wu Haoxuan specially advised.

"Yes, young marshal." Li Yanling nodded. However, she didn't believe much in Wu Haoxuan's words. She knew that in the field hospitals of the Japanese army, there were many women who worked as doctors and nurses, and she thought that Wu Haoxuan had taken a fancy to those Japanese women.

If Wu Haoxuan knew what Li Yanling thought, he would definitely shout that he was wronged. O conscience of heaven and earth! He had never thought of it that way. He asked for the Japanese doctors and nurses to be left behind, hoping to use these Japanese doctors and nurses to establish the Jilin Army's own field medical system.

Although the Jilin Army has strong weapons and equipment, it is undoubtedly very lacking in some soft power. There is a shortage of doctors, especially those who can perform surgical procedures, in all ministries. Even though the Jilin Army has deliberately increased its training in this area, there has not been much progress. If these Japanese doctors and nurses could be captured, they would be able to pass on their experience and initially establish their own field medical system.

Of course, even if these devil doctors and nurses do not cooperate, the Jilin Army has a way to get them to cooperate. It's a big deal, just play some tricks. In addition, the Jilin Army will also send a group of people to go abroad to shed blood and learn about medical treatment. After they return to China, they will also be able to further improve the field medical system of the Jilin Army. Of course, this is a very long-term process.

The instructors of the Jilin Army marched to Haicheng, and the Japanese Second Division did not know about it at all. At this moment, Lieutenant General Matsunaga Masatoshi is struggling with how to conquer Liaoyang.

After two days of fierce fighting, the Second Division had already been reduced by half. In particular, the twelve infantry brigades lost more than half. If this continues, the Second Division will be completely finished.

Through the two-day battle, Matsunaga Masatoshi also found that he had indeed underestimated the Jilin Army before. After the battle, I found that the Jilin Army is also very difficult to deal with! Even stronger than the original Russians, especially in terms of firepower of the troops, the Russians could not compare.

Of course, Lieutenant General Matsunaga Masatoshi believed that no matter how strong the Jilin Army was, it was no match for the Japanese Army. The Japanese Army, armed with the spirit of bushido, is the most powerful army.

"Gentlemen, through two fierce battles in succession, we have reached the bottom of Liaoyang City. However, the strength of the enemy should not be underestimated, so what should we do next? Masatoshi Matsunaga asked.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, I am willing to lead my wing to attack Liaoyang tomorrow, and I will definitely capture Liaoyang City." Wing Commander of the 30th Wing, Yukisuke Ujuku, Nakasa, said. Of the four wings under the command of the 2nd Division, the 16th and 29th Wings had already suffered heavy losses and had little combat effectiveness. Only the 4th and 30th wings are left with strong combat effectiveness.

"Yo Xi!" Lieutenant General Matsunaga Masatoshi nodded, and he was very appreciative of Ujuku Yusuke Nakasa's initiative to fight.

However, the faces of several other Japanese officers were not very good-looking. This battle gave them too many surprises, and the strength of the Jilin Army far exceeded their expectations. Even in their hearts, there are some doubts about whether they can win.

"Your Excellency Division Commander, although we have suffered great losses, I believe that the 1st Infantry Division of the Jilin Army has also suffered heavy losses, even greater than our losses. However, after taking Liaoyang, do we still have enough strength to march to Shengjing City? According to the latest information, the Jilin Army has captured Shengjing City. His Excellency Goto Shinpei and others have been captured. Chief of Staff Ikuta Meshin Osaku said.

"Even if Shengjing City is captured, we will continue to fight, relying on our own strength to defeat the Jilin Army. The North Korean army will soon invade the northeast, and we still have enough strength to win the Jilin army. Lieutenant General Masatoshi Matsunaga said. His biggest reliance was the Korean army, which was about to enter the war. The 3rd and 10th Divisions of the North Korean Army are the same elite units as the Second Division, with more than 40,000 people in the two divisions, which is enough to sweep the entire northeast.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Division Commander." Ikutame, Shin Osa had to say no more.

"Gentlemen, since Shengjing City has been captured by the Zhina people, then there is no need for us to rush there. After capturing the city of Liaoyang, we waited here for the North Korean army, and then fought a decisive battle with the Jilin army. "Lieutenant General Matsunaga Masatoshi is not a fool, he naturally knows that this is the safest way.

"Hi, Your Excellency Division Commander!" All the officers replied.

"Tomorrow we will launch an attack on Liaoyang City, and all the monarchs will work together to defeat the strong enemy in one fell swoop." Masatoshi Matsunaga nodded in satisfaction.

At this moment, a communications officer hurriedly barged in.

"Report to Your Excellency, Division Commander, Haicheng has been attacked by the Zhina, and we have too few troops left behind to resist the Zhina."

"Nani?"

Lieutenant General Matsunaga Masatoshi stood up all of a sudden, his face turned even pale, and Haicheng was attacked, which meant that their back road had been cut off.
