Cai Yi smiled: "I knew that the commander would definitely have this idea." I dare to conclude one thing, Nogi Noshinori's one-word long snake formation was deliberately put out for us to see, he was waiting for us to fight him, the elite troops of the Second Army must be in the middle! ”

Yang Xiaolin also knew that Cai Yi's analysis was very reasonable, Nogi Noshinori was a famous general of the Japanese army, and this front was obviously not something that a battle-hardened person did. But because of this, he has more desire to fight the Second Army! Because in Commander Yang's opinion, Nogi Noshinori was challenging him.

He fought with the Japanese Second Army once, and that time it was Nogi Noshinori who was the main attack, and the Volunteers defended. Yang Xiaolin blocked Nogi Noshinori's attack, and now he really wanted to know if that guy could block himself if there was a swap of offense and defense.

Cai Ye clearly saw Commander Yang's desire from his eyes, as a staff officer, he knew that his duty was to help the commander improve Jihua: "If the commander has this idea, I think that the sixth, seventh, and third divisions can not participate in the battle against the Japanese sixth division." Quitting now to recuperate! Recruit some suitable sources from the militia to replenish the team in order to quickly restore combat capability. ”

The current combat system of the Volunteers is quite perfect, and when the front-line troops are fighting, the militia is responsible for cooperating on the battlefield. These militiamen have also undergone a certain amount of training, and when they see the dead bodies on the battlefield and replenish them to the troops, they can basically maintain their combat effectiveness.

It's just that Yang Xiaolin was a little hesitant: "Drawing out nearly 30,000 militia to supplement the troops at once will bring difficulties to the local government." ”

After all, the militia also has combat missions, and according to Yang Xiaolin's previous strategy, in order to allow the volunteers to have more fighters in the stalemate stage after withdrawing from the frontal battlefield, they must rely on the militia's guerrilla warfare to give the enemy the necessary containment.

Cai Ye said at this time: "Commander, if you don't want to transfer too many militiamen, you can organize the people who come from the pass." ”

So far, many hot-blooded youths in the pass have already arrived in the northeast. Yang Xiaolin was afraid that these guys who only had a lot of blood would make a mistake, so he kept them behind. Now he is not Tai Wangu's time, Tai Wangu's group of people can be put into the battlefield when they come, because at that time, the volunteers were bandits, and bandits don't care about quality, as long as you dare to play with your life.

Now it's different, Commander Yang has to give them the necessary military training first, and then he has to ask Zou Rong to give them some ideological education. will shoot, knowing that they have a gun, let them go to the battlefield.

These people are all in the rear. Zou Rong is now giving them a lesson. There are quite a few people, more than 10,000 people, and more and more. They were not emotionally stable in the rear, shouting all day long to join the battle, especially after knowing the victory of the volunteers on the frontal battlefield, they could not hold back the surging passion. There are always some people who go to the battlefield without Zou Rong's consent to cause chaos.

It's also a good idea to pick out a few people from the middle, at least 5,000 people. The militia is also not drawn from one place, some from Liaodong. Although this will have a certain impact on the combat effectiveness of the troops, it will not cause too much loss to the localities.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Tell Li Debiao, Liu Xianhe." Zhang Zuoxiang, let them report the personnel losses, and let Staff Officer Kong do the specific assignment of recruits, right. Deputy Commander Zhang: Where are they now? ”

"Back to Mukden. The Russians have already reached the vicinity of Liaoping, and the attack on Liaoping may begin soon. ”

At the mention of Lao Maozi, a wave of anger rose in Yang Xiaolin's heart for no reason! To tell the truth, the Russians peeped into the Mongols sending troops to the northeast, and he was not angry at all. Are you weak, weakness is for others to bully?

But Lao Maozi actually killed a group of children in his elementary school, which Yang Xiaolin couldn't let go!

Over the years, he has been conveying his goodwill when he got along with the Russians, not only did he not make it difficult for the Russians who came to the base area to do business, but even maintained restraint against the Russian army in the border areas.

On the eve of the war, he also held a meeting with the Russian merchants, telling them that the killing of the war was limited to the battlefield. He just doesn't understand that the kindness conveyed by Weishenme himself is always ignored by the other party?

Is it because the Russians have killed less for a while, or is it because Lao Maozi thinks that the Volunteers are about to end? I don't want to be a beast, but there are always people in weishenme who force me to be a beast?

This question has not been figured out since he came to this shijie.

Commander Yang's mouth shook: "They have five thousand fewer people at once, and this battle will definitely not be easy to fight." Send him a telegram saying that we will rush over as soon as we are done here, and tell him to be on the safe side. Let's try to beat the Japanese down now! In the second stage of guerrilla warfare, the Russian troops were mainly targeted, attacking them by all means, and Lao Tzu did not kill the Russians for a long time. ”

As soon as the two of them said goodbye, Jin Dadao suddenly pushed open the door, and a few staggered in: "Xiaolin! Two poles have telegraphed! ”

Yang Xiaolin was stunned for a moment, and then rushed to Jin Dadao's side: "What did you say?" ”

Jin Dadao's face was full of smiles: "The second pole has sent a telegram!" The Eleventh Division is still there! They are alive! That kid is almost in Xiuyan now, and it is estimated that he will be able to stand in front of us in two days! ”

Yang Xiaolin reached out and snatched the telegram in Jin Dadao's hand.

Although he never believed that the Russians said that the 11th Division had been completely annihilated, but after such a long time, there was no news of the second pole, and his heart really doubted his judgment more and more. After reading the telegram, the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed, and he took out a cigarette and smoked: "Good! Send a team to pick them up right away! ”

This is the case with wars, and the smooth side seems to be especially favored by God, and the good news comes one after another. And these joyful news are based on the suffering of the Japanese.

After Terauchi Masashi received the news that the Fourth Division had been completely annihilated and the Sixth Division had been surrounded, the whole person was already stunned! Before the war, the Japanese thought that this should be a battle without suspense, and they thought that the forces invested in two armies were enough.

The First Army and the Fourth Army, which were formed in the country, were prepared for the future struggle with the Russians for the interests of the Northeast. It's not that the Japanese military didn't think that there would be a fierce battle with the volunteers, but they thought they were capable of coping with it.

The Second Army and the Third Army pressed up on two fronts, no matter which line Yang Xiaolin hit, they had an advantage in terms of strength, and even they hoped to be able to fight with the Volunteers earlier, so as to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Volunteers beyond Changbai Mountain.

But they never imagined that the front was not working at all. Yang Dagui didn't fight with them, and with a pounce, he bit hard at the hardest part of the second army. Then, like a vicious wolf biting its prey, the wounds of the Second Army became bigger and bigger, and the blood flowed incessantly. The so-called battle line has been torn to pieces by that guy, and Matsumura is now powerless to save the situation of the war, so he can only throw the Sixth Division to the Volunteers, and retreat to Dalian in a hurry with the remnants of the troops.

And Nogi Noshinori of the Third Army was also at a loss, he was the only one left in the original cooperation between the two armies, and all the deployments before the war were disrupted, and Nogi Noshinori didn't know what the Third Army should do now.

Should we continue to rescue the Sixth Division or go to Dalian to join Matsumura Wumoto? Or do you want to take the initiative to attack the Volunteers? Or according to the original Jihua, advance closer to Liaodong, attack Liaoping, and compete with the Russians for interests?

Nogi Noshinori hoped that the military department would give him a clear directive. But Terauchi Masashi discussed with a group of senior staff members for a whole afternoon today, and did not come to a conclusion. If you walk on two legs and someone cuts off one of them, you will feel very uncomfortable no matter how you jump.

What's more, Matsumura is still asking for help, this hero in the Russo-Japanese battle seems to have lost some courage now, he constantly urges the military headquarters to carry out rescue operations against the remnants of the Second Army, and asserts that the brave army will not give up after killing the Sixth Division.

Sitting in his office, looking at the strategic map of Liaoxi in front of him, Zhengyi in the temple was really a little confused. Will the Weishenme war be fought like this? What do you have to do to salvage the collapse of the war?

The secretary knocked on the door outside: "Senior General of the temple, Senior General Heihachiro Togo has something to see you." ”

Terauchi Zhengyi hurriedly turned his eyes, walked over and put away the battle map of Liaoxi: "Please let him in." ”

Although they were both generals of the Great Japanese Empire, there was some obvious estrangement between the navy and the army. Some time ago, they were very unhappy. At this time, the army was in difficulty, and Togo Heihachiro came to him for what Terauchi Masatsuki couldn't guess.

As soon as he finished speaking, Heihachiro Togo walked in with steps: "General of the temple, excuse me." ”

Before the Russo-Japanese War, Togo Heihachiro's military rank was not as high as Terauchi Masatsuki. But in the Russo-Japanese War, this brilliant admiral led the Japanese navy to fight very well, sending the Russian fleet, which was much stronger than them, to the bottom of the sea. Even if the contradictions between two people are irreconcilable. For Togo Heihachiro's talent, Terauchi Masaki is still quite respectful.

"General Dongxiang, I'm glad you took the initiative to come to me, is there anything you can do?"

While saying this, Terauchi Masaki pointed to the chair opposite his desk and motioned for Togo Heihachiro to sit down, and he stood up and personally brought a cup of tea to Togo: "If you don't see the outside, please be more direct." ”

Heihachiro Togo smiled: "Good! Then I will ask directly, about the current war situation in western Liaoning, is not optimistic, does the general of the temple have any measures to deal with it? ”

Terauchi Masatsu's nerves immediately tensed, at the beginning of the war, the navy was strongly opposed to this war, and they didn't want the army to have a chance to turn over. Now that the army has tripped again, the temple's first reaction is whether the Navy guys are going to do something again?

His suspicious look made Togo Heihachiro already understand what the other party was thinking. Dongxiang didn't wait for him to answer: "The problem you are facing now is that the Second Army is no longer able to fight, and it is difficult for the Third Army to do anything alone. If you want to salvage the situation, you need to send in reinforcements, but you don't have a suitable landing place, do you? ”

This is indeed the case, or the same sentence, the Japanese are not short of supplies this time, and they are not short of soldiers. The First and Fourth Armies at home could go to the battlefield as reinforcements, and even the Fifth Army was ready.

But now the landing in Dalian is very dangerous, Yang Dagui's eyes must be staring at Dalian, once this beast is ruthless, let the landing become a beach, the blood of the Japanese Imperial Army may stain the entire harbor.

Even if Yang Xiaolin lets the Japanese land, he can turn around and run, you can't catch up with him if you follow him, and the loss of the Second Army is in vain, and there is nothing to do about him. North Korea is even more inappropriate, Yang Dagui has set up a large number of secret posts on the Yalu River and Changbai Mountain, and there are even spies of the Volunteer Army in North Korea, as long as the Japanese army moves, he can know it immediately.

Terauchi Masayi nodded: "General Dongxiang is right, that guy completely disrupted our pre-war jihua, but please believe that we will definitely come up with a plan as soon as possible." I hope that at this time, the navy can give me the necessary support, after all, this is a war that concerns the future of our Great Japanese Empire. ”

The implication is very clear, the army does not want the navy to make trouble with them at this time. It is already in a state of exhaustion, and if the navy stirs up two more sticks, then this mess will really be wiped out.

Togo Heihachiro understood, he smiled, took out a few pieces of paper from his underwear pocket, and said: "Admiral Terauchi, our navy is the same as the army, and we are soldiers of the empire, and we are standing in a trench when facing war, please don't doubt it. I'm coming to you because there's a combat jihua here, so please take a look. (To be continued......)
