Years of the Republic of China 1913

The battle situation is still stalemate.

On the Northeast battlefield, after Zhang Zuolin's 27th Group Army experienced the painful lesson of the Japanese sneak attack, the Buyun Mountain defense line was attacked by the Japanese divisions in turn. But in the end, Ri himself was not allowed to break through, blocking the opponent's footsteps with the flesh and blood of soldiers.

The entire Buyunshan front line has almost become a cruel "meat mixer". Since the Battle of Buyunshan, the 27th Army has successively filled in more than 3 people. In addition to the loss of the 54th Division at the beginning of the war, the casualties reached about 27. It can be said that Zhang Zuolin almost put all his money in in order to block the Japanese himself.If Zhong Yang hadn’t been cheering for Zhang Zuolin all the time, and promised to provide all conveniences for the reconstruction of the [-]th Army after the war, and Fang Zida had also privately promised Zhang Zuolin many benefits through Yang Du, and even mobilized Zhong Yang Bank to give Zhang Zuolin a huge sum of money to support If he had settled down, he might not have been able to support him long ago.

On the Northeast battlefield, not only did the 27th Army suffer huge losses, but even a brigade of the reinforced 28th Army almost fought hard on the front line of Buyun Mountain. The total casualties and losses of the team were [-].

Of course, the Chinese side suffered huge losses, and the Japanese army did not feel well.Yamaguchi Katsushita's [-]th Division stormed the front line of Buyun Mountain for five days, with casualties as high as one regiment but no progress.Since the situation could not be opened, the proud Yamaguchi had no choice but to withdraw the exhausted Tenth Division under the order of Yusaku Uehara, and handed over to other divisions to attack instead.

The divisions that took over the attack from the [-]th Division thought that the opportunity to win the battle would come. Seeing that Yamaguchi's troops had their heads smashed in front of the Chinese position, they all said nothing, but they were very happy in their hearts. Gearing up to let Katsura Yamaguchi keep his eyes open to see what they are capable of.But who would have thought that as soon as they went into battle, everyone would feel that something was wrong. The cruelty on the front line was far beyond their expectations. After a few attacks, not to mention meritorious service, the casualties of their subordinates were even greater than those of the Tenth Division.No matter what methods are exhausted, the Chinese on the opposite side are firmly stuck in the position like a nail and cannot break through.

In the past half a month, the Japanese Army has suffered more than 2 casualties. This figure is not large compared to the Chinese Army, but don't forget that the Japanese Army is fighting across the sea, while the Chinese Army is fighting locally. Or military support is far from comparable. The casualties of more than 2 people are already traumatic for Uehara Yuzuo's expeditionary force. More importantly, the situation of the battle has been unable to open up. Looking at the passing of time, the weather in the Northeast is getting colder every day. As the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force and the chief of the army's general staff, Uehara Yusaku's anxiety can be imagined.

Compared with the situation in the Northeast where the Japanese army had the upper hand, but was still unable to completely defeat their opponents, the Qingdao battlefield is another situation.

The artillery battle between the Japanese Navy Second Fleet and Qingdao Fortress is as accurate as a clock every day. From [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, and from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, the two sides made an agreement to bombard each other across the sea. In the last few rounds, except for some unlucky people who were killed in the artillery fire, the artillery battle had almost no real effect except for wasting shells and bringing some pollution to the environment.As for the battle on land, it didn't take long for Yatsushiro Rokuro to fully understand Wu Peifu's intentions and figure out the purpose of the Chinese using the landing force as a bait to contain the Second Fleet.

It's a pity that Yatsushiro Rokuro realized it too late. If he had cut off the strong man's wrist immediately and completely sacrificed the remnants of the [-]th Division, perhaps the battle situation would have been different so far.But now, the [-]th Division has become a chicken rib. Not only that, in order to save the fate of the [-]th Division, Yatsushiro Rokuro also sent half of the only two other divisions in his hands to the Chinese with transport ships several times. In this way, Yatsushiro Rokuro was unable to ride a tiger, and he had to sacrifice two-thirds of the army's strength. As a commander, it was almost impossible for him to make such a determination.But it is almost impossible to rescue the army that has come ashore under the eyes of the Chinese who are waiting in battle.

Yatsushiro Rokuro, who was caught in a dilemma, found sadly that this war had almost been lost from the perspective of the Second Fleet.The failure of the tactics led the Chinese to take the initiative in the Jiaodong battle. Now the Second Fleet is not only transporting supplies for the army trapped on the shore, but also symbolically coming to the Qingdao Fortress every day for a few playful "artillery battles" "In addition to this, it has no other use.The idiom "throwing the mouse and avoiding the weapon" very well expresses the mentality of Yatsushiro Rokuro today. Looking at the fierce battle in Jiaodong every day, Yatsushiro Rokuro is so worried that he loses a lot of his hair, which is not much at all.

Yadai Liulang's life is difficult, and Wu Peifu's mood is getting more and more comfortable.A few days after encircling the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army, most of the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army also fell into the trap step by step according to his plan. Now the Jiaodong encirclement encircles a whole Japanese reorganized division. The Japanese Army, which lacks transportation capabilities, has almost no way to face such a situation other than strictly guarding its positions. Fortunately, the squadron's attack was not violent, nor did it completely cut off the logistics line, making the Japanese army linger in the encirclement. Pray for the love of Amaterasu to save your life.

After completing the tasks of encircling and luring the enemy, Wu Peifu's follow-up plans surfaced one by one.Under his command, Shandong's new army entered the battlefield one after another, and carried out a mighty "big training" with the enemies in the encirclement as training targets.Although the Japanese army quickly noticed the Chinese's intentions, under such clever schemes, the hapless [-]th and [-]th divisions of the Japanese army had no choice but to become "instructors" reluctantly.

In this battle, the Chinese army fought more vigorously and smoothly, while the [-]th and [-]th divisions became more depressed and sad, and their morale was getting lower day by day.If it weren't for these "hostages" being of great use, Wu Peifu specifically explained that the front line couldn't maim and wipe out the opponent no matter what, otherwise so many squadrons rushed forward, I'm afraid they would have collapsed long ago.

"How many were killed today?" In the evening, wisps of cooking smoke rose from the Chinese positions, while the disgraced Japanese generals and their soldiers from the [-]th and [-]th Divisions of Japan could only eat cold rice balls.As the sun went down, the difficult day finally passed. While the demoralized Japanese soldiers hid in the cold trenches and nibbled on rice balls, the Chinese side also had dinner, but their dinner was steaming steamed buns. Boiled cabbage and meat, and a bowl of vegetable soup with oily flowers floating in it.

The person who asked the question was an excited Deng Yanda, who grabbed two steamed corn buns in one hand and stood beside Ye Ting who was drinking soup.

"Three." Ye Ting finished the soup in a few sips, wiped his mouth and smiled.

"Not bad!" Deng Yanda tsk-tsk praised, after the Ri himself on the opposite side figured out the situation, he no longer played "pig sudden" like an idiot, from top to bottom, survival was the primary goal, and he played like the squadron trench warfare.Under such circumstances, the casualties of both sides decreased from day to day, and sometimes the two armies faced each other for a whole day, and the combined casualties of the two armies were only a dozen or so. In this case, Ye Ting was able to kill three The Japanese soldiers cannot help but admire Deng Yanda.

"What's the matter, Zhang Wenbai killed five Japanese himself on the first day." Ye Ting said shaking his head.

"How can this be the same? When he was on the front line, these little Japanese were still charging foolishly. As long as they were lucky, they would be able to wipe out a large area with a machine gun. Five? It wouldn't be uncommon to kill ten." Deng Yanda curled his lips and said. , A few of them came to Jinan to find Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui, and asked to go to the front to participate in the battle.Since we were all classmates and had some friendships, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui still didn't dare to agree to their request to come to join the war without permission. They just settled them down first and then reported to Fang Zida.After learning about the situation, Fang Zida was also taken aback. Of course he knew the famous names of these people, but he didn't expect that they are still "angry youths" now, not only that, they also came to the front line from the military academy to ask to join the war without authorization.After thinking about it for a while, Fang Zida decided to keep a few of them, and split them up and divided them into various units. In Fang Zida's mind, these are future generals, and it would be best for him to join his team As for the troubles at the Zhongyang Military Academy, Fang Zida naturally has a way to solve it. It is also a good thing for these young people to experience war in the army.

After encircling the [-]th and [-]th Divisions of Japan, various units of the new army joined the battle one after another. Zhang Zhizhong had better luck. The troops he went to were the first batch of troops to participate in the battle. After three days of fighting on the front line, they retired to rest. Gu Zhutong's team took over the alternate attacks.By the time Deng Yanda and Ye Ting went to the front line, the Battle of Jiaodong had been going on for almost half a month, and the Japanese on the opposite side were getting more and more slippery. In addition, the superiors made it clear that they could not deal destructive blows to the opponent, which led to the victory of the Chinese team. It is also declining.

"If you want me to say, these small Japans are really boring. I heard that the Northeast is fighting much more intensely than ours. If I knew it, I should have gone to the Northeast." Tian He fired a lot of guns, but he didn't kill a single opponent. After hearing Ye Ting's record, he scratched his head depressedly.

Seeing Deng Yanda like this, Ye Ting couldn't help shaking his head with a smile.Indeed, as Deng Yanda said, the fighting in the Northeast was much stronger than here. It is said that the combined casualties on both sides have reached 10 people.But does playing hard mean playing well?Ye Ting's opinion is exactly the opposite of Deng Yanda's. The so-called good fighters have no great achievements. Don't look at how the Northeast is fighting vigorously, but here is smooth and stable, but Wu Peifu is undoubtedly much better than Zhang Zuolin in terms of grasping the overall battle situation.
