The sun is getting higher, and it is a good day with the sun shining high.

Li Mo stood on the balcony of the staff room, sighed, and didn't sleep all night, looking at the mangroves in the distance, listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, and rubbing his swollen temples!

Although he wanted to go back to bed and sleep beautifully for a few days and nights, he really couldn't pull his face in the face of so many officers who were still staying up late, and in the face of soldiers who were fighting bloodily on the front line.

Anyway, Roosevelt Jr. has disabled legs and insists on commanding the huge World War II, how did he do it?

Master Li thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand, it seems that Superman also wants to wear a cheating device with red pants! I don't know what kind of pants Xiaoxiao and Yue'er are wearing now, lace? Or Little Tintin?

No, did these two things invent? Do you want a lot of masters to be friends with women?! For the benefit of the perverts in the world?

Young Master Li fantasized that he had "invented" Xiao Ding Ding, and after the bikini, he was worshiped by men all over the world, and his saliva was dripping, and at this time, a rush of footsteps interrupted his white dream.

"Report, Commander Long Guozhang sent a telegram, two hours ago, the fleet has been with the transport ship, and now they have been divided, the strike formation composed of the Antarctic Star, the Rising Star, the Tenacity and the Determination is heading towards Lushun, and it is expected to arrive in Lushun tomorrow afternoon, clear the remnants of the Russian [***] ships, and launch an artillery bombardment to cover the landing of the marines."

"In addition, the Survey will lead two destroyers to protect the troops to land at Yingkou in Liaodong Bay, and the Patrol and the remaining destroyers will protect the remaining transport ships to continue to Andong, and the rest of the ships are on their way back."

After listening to Zhang Zuolin's report, Young Master Li returned to the staff room from the balcony, and was fantasizing about the beautiful beaches of Hawaii becoming a bikini paradise when he was suddenly interrupted, so that he didn't react for a while.

After a while, he asked: "Have the three battalions of the first division, the second regiment, and the third battalion arrived at Motianling?" ”

Zhang Zuolin knew what Li Mo was worried about, and shook his head: "I haven't received their telegram yet, but the Liaodong Reading Battalion has already sent a telegram, and they have already turned around with the reconnaissance company of the Fourth Division, and they are temporarily working with Nie Shicheng's department, and they are now ready to block the Russian army from Liaoyang to the south." ”

"But Nie Shicheng doesn't seem to believe them very much."

"Don't believe me? And that's okay. ”

Hearing this series of news, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, Nie Shicheng was one of the few Qing generals he could afford, so last night after getting information that he led two thousand remnants to retreat to Liaoyang, he was determined to try to win him over, no matter what the future holds, at least for now, Nie Shicheng is still generally knowledgeable in terms of joining hands to resist Russia.

"With Nie Shicheng's 2,000 people, plus the Reading Battalion and the reconnaissance company, almost 3,000 people, I hope to stop it." Thinking of this, Li Mo quickened his pace and walked towards the staff center-

In Mukden City, Ferevar looked anxious, although he had already conquered the most important city in the northeast, he was not happy at all, because according to a telegram from Ambassador Cassini, the fleet led by Witheft had lost contact for several days!

It is nothing if the fleet has been in transit for a few days without contact, but the problem is that this is the Far East, and the only places that can be used for the fleet to be stationed are Vladivostok and Arthur, and even if he returns to Vladivostok, according to the calculation of the distance, there should have been news already, but the telegram sent to Vladivostok has not been connected, which makes him have a bad feeling.

What's more, the Pacific Army has actually declared war on the emphasized Russia for five days! Do these self-defeating guys think that they can challenge the powerful Russian Far East Fleet by defeating a few small ships?!

Felevar shook his head vigorously, and the worry about the fleet ran out of his mind, although the fleet was the core of this battle, but as an army general, he was more concerned about the current Liaodong Peninsula.

Because no matter how the Pacific Army wants to fight, if they want to intervene in this war, they must invest in the army, and it will take at least two days to set off from the Ryukyus, and according to the last information, the fleet has been a day and a night from Arthur, which means that if the Pacific Army seizes this opportunity, then their troop carriers should depart at this moment.

Looking at the huge Liaodong Peninsula, Ferevar only felt a headache, the Liaodong Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, there are too many places to land, although the troops who landed from Lushun have controlled Lushun and Jinzhou, but where is there Fuzhou (now Wafangdian), as well as Dagushan, Andong and so on, it is too much!

The Wu Qian Army entering from Lushun alone could not defend such a wide area, so it was necessary to arrange for the main force to move south as soon as possible to intercept a possible landing battle launched by the Pacific Army.

As soon as he thought of this, he immediately got up, but as soon as he walked out of the door, he heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves: "Report, Your Excellency Lieutenant General, the DPRK has sent a telegram that the port of Wonsan has encountered a fierce counterattack by himself, and they say that the telegram cannot contact Vladivostok, and I hope you can send reinforcements as soon as possible." ”

"Say myself!"

Felevar's head hurt even more, why did he suddenly storm Wonsan Port at this time? Could it be ......?! A possibility suddenly jumped from his mind, and it also made his sweat and hair seem to explode, and he immediately shouted: "Someone, the Cossack cavalry vanguard has arrived there." ”

"Your Excellency, Major General Andrei has set off with the cavalry division, and their forward troops have arrived in Liaoyang, but I heard that they have met with fierce resistance and are progressing very slowly."

"Resistance?!"

"Who's resisting?" Ferevar was in a daze, who else at this time would resist the powerful Russian Cossack cavalry? You must know that even Mukden was occupied by himself.

"It was some Qing troops who fled from Mukden, who established a defensive line in Liaoyang and prevented Major Andrei from continuing to advance."

"These goddamn whip pigs!" Felevar stomped his feet hard, but at this moment he didn't have the heart to pack up the troops that were blocking, he walked to the map again, pointed to Ferris Ridge and Phoenix City, and ordered: "Immediately inform Major General Andrei, give up the entanglement with those whip troops, immediately make a detour to Motianling, and the other troops will also set off immediately, we must cut off the entire Liaodong Peninsula by tomorrow morning!" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, Lieutenant General." The guards hurriedly rode away, but they didn't notice that Ferevar's face was getting more and more gloomy—

"Hit."

Nie Shicheng hid behind a big rock and waved his arm suddenly, only to see white smoke coming out of the muzzles of hundreds of guns at the same time, and the Russian cavalry in the distance fell from their horses one after another. Without waiting for the other party to react, the first group of soldiers who fired had already crouched down, and the second group of soldiers behind them fired again.

Then came the third batch, and then the first batch,......。

"Three-stage shooting."

Ma Wenshan glanced at the Qing army who was hiding behind the cover and shooting, and the corners of his mouth tugged, but he didn't expect that the Qing army was still using this ancient method, especially the dense formation, even if there was an earthen wall cover, I am afraid that the casualties would be not small.

Sure enough, before he could finish his thoughts, the nimble Cossack cavalry also opened fire, and the dense rain of bullets suddenly knocked down a large part of the third group of Qing troops who were shooting, and their horse speed became faster and faster.

Ma Wenshan knew that if he let the cavalry rush up, let alone his own people, even if it was doubled, he would not be able to stop it, and immediately shouted: "Grenade preparation." ”

"A grenade?"

Nie Shicheng was attracted by this shout that spread throughout the battlefield, only to see those Pacific Army soldiers who were hiding behind the earthen wall, neither in formation nor in formation, and took out a wooden handle iron lump like a foreigner's wine bottle, only to see them quickly unscrew the back cover, pull out a thin rope, and then pull hard, and suddenly a puff of gunpowder smoke came out of the tail.

Before he could understand what it was, he saw the sailors stand up sharply at the approaching Russian cavalry, and threw the grenades in their mouths with all their might, only to see hundreds of black raindrops flying out quickly and smashing into the Russian cavalry that was about to reach them.

Suddenly, those black spots in his eyes suddenly exploded, Nie Shicheng and all the Qing soldiers saw that countless fires rose from all over the cavalry, the war horses were torn apart by the explosion that was close at hand, and the Russian cavalry also fell off their horses, especially the sharp-eyed people also found that there were countless whirling fragments in the explosion and swept away, sweeping the cavalry outside the explosion off their horses.

The momentum of the Russian cavalry's charge was suddenly strangled to death, and the frightened horses ran around, blocking the troops behind, and the originally neat ranks were scattered all at once.

Looking at the explosion, the Shoushan brothers looked at each other, and finally knew where the shells that saved them that day came from.

"Free Fire!"

The same shout came again, and this time Nie Shicheng saw that the hundreds of Pacific Army soldiers scattered quickly, skillfully moving, using stones and earth walls as cover, and constantly shooting.

Unlike the Qing army, when they shoot, they either squat, or lie down, although they are not as dense as their own side, sweeping a piece, but the effect is not much worse than the two thousand muskets on their side, and the few guys around Ma Wenshan who look like old oilers at a glance have to move every time they finish a shot, although the shooting is very slow, but almost never missed, so that the Russians on the opposite side can not find the direction to return fire.

Looking at the way of fighting that was very different from his own, not to mention Nie Shicheng, even the Qing generals around him were also eye-opening, especially the kind of thing called grenades that they threw from time to time that were not much weaker than artillery shells, it was really too exciting, as long as it was thrown into the middle of the Russian army, there would never be a single person standing up within four or five meters around.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Pacific Army were fighting more and more fiercely, Nie Shicheng hurriedly kicked his subordinates beside him and shouted: "Dog, what are you waiting for, learn more!" ”

"Huh."

Seeing that Nie Shicheng, who was extremely strict in Pingyue, was so excited, the soldiers of the Qing army around him also laughed, and they also gave up the three-stage shooting method, learned the fighting method of the Pacific Army, and scattered in all directions.

The sound of ping-pong shooting was incessant, the smoke of gunpowder continued to rise from everywhere, Russian soldiers and Qing troops continued to fall, and even those soldiers of the Pacific Army were constantly decreasing.

As more and more Russian cavalry appeared in the field of vision, little by little began to assemble in formation, Nie Shicheng and Ma Wenshan's faces were not good, could it be said that the Russians were really desperate to break through from this side?

You must know that what they are encountering at the moment is only the forward battalion of the Cossack cavalry, a force of about 1,000 people, if it is really tens of thousands of horsemen who are rushing at the same time, let alone blocking it, they are not even worthy of giving others a drink!

Just when the battle line was in danger, suddenly a whimpering horn sounded, and I saw that hundreds of Russian cavalry suddenly gave up the attack and galloped southeast, even ignoring the hundreds of corpses left in front of the battle.

"What happened to the Russians?"

Nie Shicheng slowly stood up from behind the earthen wall and stared blankly at the Russian cavalry in the distance. Seeing that the Russians had retreated, the Qing soldiers, who had been fighting for almost an hour, immediately cheered, but soon they found that those Pacific Army soldiers were not only not happy, but their faces became more and more solemn
