Chapter 965: Finale

Previous Chapter

In the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the occasional opportunity for the first few years of his own personal expedition, the rest of the war was solved by Lu Xiangsheng, Man Gui, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, and Li Zicheng, Li You still hasn't been in person for a long time, and now he can't help but be overjoyed when he sees the tiger talisman emitting white light again, but he doesn't know that he will enter that world this time? What kind of tasks do you need to complete?

"The world that the host entered this time is the Liaodong Peninsula in 1894, and the task that the host needs to complete is divided into three parts, the first is to defeat the Japanese landing force in the First Sino-Japanese War and win this war; secondly, to seize power in China from the Manchus and help China rise again; Finally, the host needs to lead China to an undisputed victory in World War II and become the rule-maker of the post-war world, the master of the world system, for a period of fifty years. ”

This mission... It's really difficult and long, Li You couldn't help but be stunned, the task he had experienced before was not so long, the task of the Three Kingdoms World was not even a month, and it was only three or five months to help Zhang Xun hold Suiyang and participate in the Battle of Taizhou under Qi Jiguang, and the rest of the battles of the Battle of Talas, the mission to the Western Regions, and the leadership of the Guiyi Army to defeat the infidels and party members who advanced eastward Although the tasks were longer, they only took a few years of effort, and it only took fifteen years to help the Ming Dynasty come back to life last time. This mission, however, took 50 years of work, which is really surprising.

However, it seems reasonable to think about it, since the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, in order to maintain their rule, they had to adopt a policy of closing the country to the people, resulting in China gradually falling behind the West, and now the strength of the Western countries has greatly surpassed China, and it is not a simple task to take away the world hegemony from Britain, the United States, Germany, France, Russia, Japan and other powers, and it is not easy to complete this task in 50 years.

A white light flashed, Li You appeared in a mountain forest, look at the dress on his body, the tiger talisman seems to have disguised himself, the clothes on his body and the hat on his head are all attached to the dress of the people in this era, Li You couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly reached out to touch the top of his head, and then let out a sigh, fortunately, the tiger talisman did not give him a braid out, but left a short hair, so as not to cut off this ugly braid by himself.

What is this place? This mission is not to wear the soul, but to cross the body, so there is no way to understand the situation with the help of others first, everything has to be explored by Li You himself, he looked around for a while, and then walked along the mountain path to the heights, and when he reached the top of the mountain, he looked around and saw an avenue, judging from the military clothing marching on the road, it seemed that this place still belonged to the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and was not captured by the Japanese army for the time being.

Li You immediately walked towards the main road, and then secretly knocked a fallen Manchu soldier unconscious and dragged him to the mountains and forests to torture him severely, and Li You got some useful information from his mouth, "So this is Lushun?" No wonder some places look so familiar, and the current date is October 24, 1894 AD, so isn't it not long before the Lushun Massacre presided over by Nogi Noshinori and Mountain Genji? ”

Nogi Noshinori is a faithful executor of Japan's foreign aggressive and expansionist policy, he is currently the commander of the first brigade of the second army of the Japanese invasion of China, under the command of the commander of the first division, Motoji Yamachi, before the invasion of China, wrote poems to openly confess his fanatical militarist thoughts, "The fat horse and the big sword have not yet been paid, and the emperor's grace has been empty for a few springs and autumns; Dou Scoop poured out his drunken dreams and broke through the four hundred states of China. ”

Calculating the time, today Nogi Noshinori has led the vanguard of the invasion of China to land at Huayuankou on the Liaodong Peninsula, and undertook the task of attacking Jinzhou, an important town in eastern Liaodong, and then occupied the Dalian Bay Fort and easily seized a large number of weapons and equipment of the Qing army; Then it took only two hours to capture the city of Arthur in front of Li You; Because in the middle of the march, there were fifteen Japanese scouts, who were caught by the Qing army and tied to the execution stake and scalped and slowly tortured to death, the Japanese army found out about this after the success of the counterattack on the Qing camp, and the whole army cried, so, when Lushun broke the city, the mountain Genji and Nogi Noshinori ordered the slaughter of innocent civilians in Lushun in a tragic place of 20,000 people, and the Japanese army looted and looted in Lushun, burned and killed, and did all kinds of evil, turning this place into a hell on earth.

Since I am here, I will not allow such a tragedy to occur in Lushun again, thinking so in my heart, Li You found a suitable place to summon Li Yunlong's independent regiment, a white light flashed, and more than 5,000 soldiers who were dressed plainly, but with a very high spirit, appeared in front of Li You, they lined up in a neat line, looking at Li You with their heads held high, from the perspective of soldier composition, this army has infantry, cavalry and artillery, which meets the needs of a variety of combat modes.

Before Li You could speak, he saw a rough-looking man and a slightly bookish officer walking over, the rough man walked up to him and tilted his head to look at Li You for a long time before saying, "What are you going to do when you call me and our brothers from the Independent Regiment here?" If you let us fight you and protect you as the emperor, I Li Yunlong won't do it! ”

"This gentleman, now that the war ahead is tightening, you better put us back and let us continue to fight devils." The bookish man thought to be Zhao Gang, the political commissar of the Independent Regiment, and he spoke much more tactfully than Li Yunlong, but the meaning was the same, it seemed that they didn't want to help Li You fight unconditionally.

"If you want to fight the devil, you don't have to go back, just wait here, it won't be long before the devil comes." Li You pointed in the direction of Lushun and said, "Your current location is outside the Northeast Lushun City, and the time is October 24, 1894 in the park, I think Political Commissar Zhao should understand what it means, right?" "Li Yunlong has no culture, but Zhao Gang is a person who has read a lot of books, and presumably he will not know the history of the First Sino-Japanese War.

"Lushun on October 24, 1894?" Zhao Gang frowned when he heard this, he had served as the leader of the December 9 Anti-Japanese Salvation Movement when he was a student at Yenching University, and he knew the Japanese very well, and he soon realized the significance of this time and place.

"Lao Zhao, what's going on these days? Look at what worries you, and also tell us that we will help you find a way. Although Li Yunlong has a rough appearance, he is extremely delicate in his heart, and he quickly saw the embarrassment of this old partner, not only asked with concern, but also glared at Li You after speaking, as if he had a lot to hide from him.

"If I remember correctly, October 24, 1894 was the day when the Japanese army general Dashan Yan commanded 25,000 men of the Second Army of the Japanese invasion of China under his command began to land at Huayuankou on the back road of Lushun under the cover of the Japanese naval warships. On November 6, the Japanese army defeated the Qing army Lianshun, Xu Bangdao and other units, and occupied Jinzhou; On the 7th, the Japanese army attacked Dalian Bay in three ways, and Zhao Huaiye, the defender of Dalian, fled when he heard the news, and the Japanese army won Dalian Bay without a fight; On the 18th, the Japanese army advanced to Tuchengzi, Xu Bangdao's Gong Guards stubbornly resisted, and the next day, Gong Zhaoxi ignored the army and fled to Yantai by torpedo boat; On the 19th, the three commanders Huang Shilin, Zhao Huaiye, and Wei Rucheng also absconded one after another; On November 21, 1894, the Japanese army launched a general attack on Arthur Pass, and the next day, Lushun, known as the "first fortress in East Asia", fell into the hands of the Japanese army......

"What the hell is this battle for? Sounds like it's not even as good as the peanut army! If you want to let labor and management encounter Huang Shilin, Zhao Huaiye, and Wei Rucheng, you have to cut off their heads......" Li Yunlong couldn't help but be angry when he heard half of it, and began to scold, scolding those Qing army generals who were incompetent in battle and escaped from the battle to the point of uselessness.

"Then the Japanese invaders launched the horrific Lushun Massacre under the command of the mountain Genji and Nogi Noshinori, and more than 20,000 Lushun people were brutally killed...... Zhao Gang's voice began to tremble slightly, and his eyes gradually turned a little red, seeing that such a brutal massacre was about to happen in front of him, he really couldn't control his emotions.

"This is the purpose of the two of me, Commander Li wants to fight devils, here's a whole 25,000 devils waiting for you and the soldiers of the independent regiment to fight, but this Dashan Yan and Nogi Noshinori are both famous generals in the Japanese army, even if we want to fight, we have to be careful." Li You interjected at the right time, and Zhao Gang's words saved him the effort of introducing the background to Li Yunlong.

"What's wrong with the celebrity? What happened to Nogi Noshinori? Labor and management are famous generals, and they are his mother's Nogi Noshinori! "Li Yunlong originally hated the Japanese army invading China, but now he heard that they were going to start a massacre in front of him, so he still held it? immediately pulled Zhao Gang over, "I said Zhao Gang, this battle is what Lao Li decided to fight, what do you mean?" ”

"If we analyze from the perspective of combat effectiveness, although the 25,000 soldiers led by Dashan Yan are more than the number of independent regiments, their individual combat ability is afraid that they are not as good as those of the independent regiment, and the independent regiment is also superior in light weapons, and the only thing that the Japanese army is ahead of us may be artillery." After all, there is a gap of several decades between the two sides, so even the independent regiment that is not very well equipped is better than the invading Japanese army, and now the Japanese soldiers mainly use the Murata 22 rifle.

This rifle is developed and designed by the Japanese Army Major Samurata Tsuyoshi, produced by the Tokyo Artillery Factory Koishikawa Rifle Production, which is the first Japanese design and manufacture of its own standard single-shot rear-loading rifled rifle Murata 13 type improvement, built-in 8-round magazine, caliber 8mm, smaller caliber and can carry more ammunition.

The types of rifles used by Li Yunlong's independent regiment are more varied, the most of which is the 38 type rifle captured from the Japanese army, and this rifle happens to be a substitute for the Japanese army after eliminating the Murata 22 rifle, whether it is shooting accuracy, shooting speed or reliability and other aspects are stronger than the Murata 22 rifle, so Li Yunlong's independent regiment rarely achieved an advantage in weapons in the war against the Japanese invasion of China.

Of course, this is only in terms of rifles, the advantage of the independent regiment in the machine gun is greater, the Japanese army is reluctant to buy the Gatling machine gun because of the lack of money, of course, this may also be the reason why the Japanese generals dislike the Gatling machine gun for consuming bullets too quickly, and Li Yunlong's independent regiment has nearly 100 machine guns, and the tactical movements of the machine gunners are very good, by no means those unreliable machine gunners in the Qing army can be compared, as long as the tactics are used properly, they can definitely cause great damage to the Japanese army.

However, in terms of artillery, the independent regiment did not have an advantage, although the Japanese had 12 mortars, 6 mountain guns, a number of grenadiers, in addition to an Italian 105-mm howitzer with 17 shells, all of which were light guns except for the Italian guns; According to the establishment of the Japanese army, a division of 20,000 people has 39 mountain artillery, most of which are heavy artillery; What made Li You feel extremely regrettable was that the Qing army now had thousands of field guns and artillery batteries, but in the hands of the Qing army, these weapons, which were far superior to the Japanese artillery, were not of much use.

"Well, the weapons of the Independent Regiment are better than Nogi Noshinori, but Nogi Noshinori has a steady stream of weapons, ammunition supplies and reinforcements from the Japanese Navy fleet behind him, but we only have these five thousand people, and we only have this weapon." Zhao Gang was not blindfolded because of this advantage.

"It doesn't matter, I brought the Huangyadong Arsenal and Mr. Li Qiang, an expert in the military industry, as long as I find a suitable place, I can resume production." Li You helped them take a reassuring pill, of course, Li Qiang is not only a military expert, he will be more useful after this.

"People don't have to worry, aren't you Lao Zhao the best at mobilizing the masses? Just now, this brother said that along the way, many people took the initiative to stop the Japanese devils, and when the time comes, your old Zhao will show his housekeeping skills, and expand the independent regiment into an independent brigade, an independent division and even an independent army. "Indeed, the mass line work of the Independent League is still progressing very well, and I believe that Zhao Gang and his political work team will definitely be able to unite the masses in Northeast China, turn Northeast China into a base for the Independent League, and develop and grow through this.

"The matter of mobilizing the masses will be talked about in the future, and the most important thing at the moment is to block Nogi Noshinori and protect the people of Lushun." Zhao Gang had apparently accepted this task, and then the commanders and fighters of the independent regiment began to gather together to formulate a combat plan based on the information provided by Li You and Zhao Gang......

A few days later, in the middle of Dalian to Lushun, Li Yunlong led the independent regiment to lie in ambush on the hillside, quietly waiting for the Japanese army of Nogi Noshinori to enter the encirclement, waiting for the signal of the general attack to come out, only to hear a cannon sound, the soldiers of the independent regiment launched an attack on the Japanese army of Nogi Noshinori, and a group of Japanese soldiers fell screaming......

This time, Li You did not take the initiative to attack, but looked at Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and the thousands of soldiers of the Independent Regiment who fought bravely with emotion.

From Zhang Qian, Wei Qing, Li Guang, Huo Quzhi, to Cao Cao, Ran Min, Zu Ti, Liu Kun, from Li Jing, Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, Gao Xianzhi to Zhang Xun, Nan Jiyun, Zhang Yichao, from Yue Fei, Han Shizhong to Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou, and then to these heroic soldiers in front of them, it is precisely these national backbones who dare to sacrifice that China has resisted wave after wave of enemy attacks and has always stood in the east of the world for 5,000 years.

was wandering outside the world, only to hear Li Yunlong shout to wake Li You up, "Second battalion commander, where are your fucking Italian artillery?" Pull Lao Tzu up and hit him with a shot ......"

Li You smiled slightly when he heard this, raised the rifle in his hand and aimed at Nogi Noshinori, who was directing the Japanese counterattack, and pulled the trigger.

No matter what tasks I encounter in the future, I will stand by the side of these Chinese heroes, and fight with them against the most vicious enemies in China......
