By the next day, Hu Hao's side was still preparing, and on the Shandong side, the devils were still attacking.

"Baga, it's been 2 days, and I haven't attacked the defense line of the Independent Army yet, Baga, I'm angry!" Okamura Ninji was in the headquarters with a biao,

Now he is under a lot of pressure in his heart, the independent army has taken back all of Hebei, arrested hundreds of thousands of expatriates, if he hadn't stayed in China for a long time, and it was a time of war, it is estimated that he would have been asked to go to the base camp to explain immediately, or if he didn't do well, he would have gone to prison!

So now he hopes to win the battle as soon as possible, originally asked the Kwantung Army to launch an attack on Shanhaiguan today, the purpose is also to confuse Hu Hao, so that his landing force can land in Qingdao smoothly, but now the Kwantung Army actually does not cooperate at all, which makes him very angry!

"Baga, they are all a group of snobbish villains, they know how to see their own interests!" Okamura Ningji scolded in the office, those staff officers were far away, and they didn't dare to approach him at all.

The chief of staff had no choice but to go over and persuade: "Your Excellency Commander, don't worry, the battle is still under our control, although the casualties of our attack on Shandong in the past few days are also very large, but according to the situation reported by our intelligence officers hidden in the Independent Army, the casualties of the Independent Army are also very large!" So it's all insisting, it depends on who can hold on to zuihou,

I think that as long as the landing of our troops attacking Qingdao is successful, then the defenders of Shandong will definitely be defeated! ”

"Well, I know, but it is precisely because of our strong attack that we can't break the defense line in Shandong, which shows how strong the combat effectiveness of the independent army is, if they are given another chance, it will be even more difficult to deal with in the future!" Okamura walked back and forth in the office with his hands behind his back.

"Yes, that's true!" The chief of staff nodded and said.

"But the base camp doesn't know now. Umezu Mijiro he didn't know, they were all calculating, calculating what was the most beneficial, they forgot, now the places they are calculating are all places that we fought down before, but now let Hu Hao occupy them,

If he was given time, he would be able to occupy more, so. Now the empire should defeat Hu Hao with all its strength, and it must be Hu Hao's death! Okamura waited until he shouted at his chief of staff.

"Hey!" When the chief of staff saw that his commander was like this, he immediately became angry.

"Yaga!" Okamura Ninji walked back and forth with his waist propped up.

"Order, tell the troops on the front line that today they must break through the defense line of the independent army and enter Shandong!" Okamura Ninji ordered.

"Hey!" The chief of staff immediately nodded, and then went out to send a telegram, while Okamura Ninji walked to the front of the map and looked at it, looking at where there was still a chance!

Wait until the evening. The attacking troops of the devils still did not break through the defense line in Shandong.

Not only did they not break through, but they suffered heavy casualties, and as of today, the 150,000 attacking troops of the devils are less than 90,000. But the military exploits they reported said that at least more than 150,000 people of the independent army were annihilated!

"Baga, more than 150,000 people, and the total number of veterans of the Independent Army in Shandong is only 150,000! These people even thought that they would be able to fight the Independence Army 3:1. Or even 4:1! Okamura Ninji scolded with a telegram.

"Report, landing force report!" A communications staff officer came over with a telegram and said to Okamura Ninji.

"Yes, give it to me!" Okamura Ninji immediately picked up the telegram. Then I took a closer look.

"Okay, command. After they have landed, immediately bring their forces closer to our side, and ask them to attack at full speed and break the defense line of the Independence Army from behind! Okamura Ninji was only happy at this time, and now the commander-in-chief has a chance.

"Hey!" The staff officer also went out to send a telegram, and on the Qingdao side, many people who lived by the sea saw that there were many big ships moving in the distance, and immediately told the order to the above, and slowly the information reached the hands of the defending generals defending Qingdao.

"Damn, it's coming!" Yuan Xiaoyi, the commander of the Second Column, was in charge of the defense of this place.

Seeing that the intelligence said that the devil was coming, he immediately began to order his soldiers to enter the defensive positions, which were all permanent fortifications underground, and most of them were underground fortifications, and there was nothing on the upper fortifications.

"Report, emergency telegram from the front, the devils have begun to send small boats to our side!" A telegraph operator said immediately.

"Let them come up, we can't go to the sea, we can only let them go ashore to fight!" Yuan Xiaoyi said immediately.

"Well, do you want to mobilize the troops from Yantai back?" Chief of Staff Yang Jingbo immediately asked (book friend Yang Jingbo).

"Wait a minute, I'm not sure if the devils are all landing here, wait until it's confirmed before issuing an order!" Yuan Xiaoyi sat down and said.

"Good!" Yang Jingbo nodded and said.

"Come on, send a telegram to Deputy Commander Zhang, Commander Hu, and the Command, telling them that the devil is preparing to land in Qingdao, and we are already preparing to defend in the defensive position outside Qingdao!" Yuan Xiaoyi ordered the staff officers next to him, and those staff officers also sent telegrams according to their own duties!

"Report, the vanguard of the devils has come ashore!" The telegraph operator stood up and said.

"Keep scouting! Let them come up and fight again partially! It's a big deal, Lao Tzu can't fight for them! That Lao Tzu also won! Yuan Xiaoyi immediately said,

The telegraph operator also sent the telegram out immediately, and the devils who landed began to move towards Qingdao, and the vanguard troops also began to expand the depth to the front, so that all the large troops behind could go ashore safely.

"Baga, it seems that it is really as the headquarters said, the independent army did not expect us to land in Qingdao at all, they think that we are like them, a country without a navy!" The commander of one of the divisions said with a smile.

"Haha, China has long had no navy, and their navy has long been gone in the Qing Dynasty!" Another division commander spoke,

"Haha, it seems that Shandong is going to return to the control of our empire, okay, our landing force has already gone up halfway, and we are going up too, after so many days on the ship, we are finally on land!" The division commander said with a smile, and the other division commander nodded happily,

Then the two men began to disembark from the boat with the men of their headquarters, got on the waiting boat, and began to land on land.

"Report, the devils have landed more than halfway through, and the vanguard is already not five kilometers from our front line." A telegraph operator spoke.

"Okay, order the artillery on the back mountainside to bombard Lao Tzu and attract the devil's naval artillery!" Yuan Xiaoyi immediately shouted,

The arrangement of the artillery is still in accordance with Hu Hao's words, and the running positions are arranged in the form of an anti-slope plane, and it is now night, and there is no devil's air force here, which will definitely be able to attract the naval guns of those devil ships.

"Brothers, give the order, see the power of our cannons, all ready!" After receiving the telegram, one of the brigade commanders of the artillery came out of the headquarters and shouted,

Immediately the artillerymen began to take their positions, and then they removed the shields that covered the guns, and began to adjust the parameters according to the haode parameters that had been determined long ago.

"Report, a company of artillery is ready!"

"Report it, the second company is ready!"

"Report, a mess is ready!"

"The second regiment is ready!" 、

The artillerymen were ready to report to the top, layer by layer,

"Ready, modify the parameters after ten rounds of bursts!" The brigade commander immediately shouted.

"Ready!"

"Launch!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom" The sound of heavy shelling began to be heard from the entire second half of the mountain.

"Yaga, it's artillery! Quick, get down! "One of the devils heard the screeching sound of cannonballs flying in the distance, and immediately shouted.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom!" Immediately, there was a violent explosion from the landing ground of the devils, which immediately lit up the beach, and many devils were blown up and flew directly.

"Boom, boom, boom!" There were explosions from time to time on the beach, and those devils realized at this time that Qingdao had already been defended.

"Yaga, ask for support from the navy, quick!" The division commander was lying on the beach and shouted loudly.

After the navy saw this situation, it immediately began to calculate the position of the artillery position, and then began to adjust the position of its own turret.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The landing force of the guards also immediately opened their cannons, but not long after, there was a fire on a mountain in the distance, and all the shells exploded there.

And the artillery positions behind the mountain immediately began to modify the parameters according to the data sent back by the observers, and began to counterattack the naval guns of the devils.

"Boom, boom!" Then the entire landing beach and the ocean were full of explosions, and the people of the Independence Army were not using ordinary shells now, they were all using armor-piercing shells, and now they just wanted to kill the ships of the devils, so that they could see that they could defend the coastal sea without a navy!

"Boom, boom!" A ship was hit by a few shots, and there was an explosion inside the ship, and then the ship began to tilt to the side.

"Baga, give me a fight back, fight back!" The flagship responsible for escorting the landing saw that his ship had been bombarded by land-based artillery, and shouted loudly,

"Boom, boom!" There was an explosion around the ships, and a column of water rose into the sky.

"Yaga, my ship has been shot, and the bottom of the ship is starting to leak, please withdraw from the battle!" One of the captains immediately began to speak over the radio.

"You can quit! Yaga, why haven't you bombarded their positions yet! The devil's commander scolded loudly when he saw that there were still shells flying in the distance. (To be continued......)
