Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

What made Matsumoto Yunqing even more angry was that he knew that if he went to talk to Lin Yuan about this matter, Lin Yuan would definitely deny it, and would pretend to be confused with himself. At that time, he would be a dumb man eating coptis, and he would not be able to tell what he was suffering.

At this time, an attendant came over and said, "Mr. Matsumoto, Prime Minister Ito has an urgent call."

Matsumoto Yunqing didn't need to read the telegram to know that it was Hirobumi Ito who asked him about the announcement, but he opened it and took a look, and found that the content inside was the same as he guessed, and then said to his entourage: "Send the telegram to the prime minister, just say I was deceived by Lin Yuan."

Seeing Matsumoto Yunqing's call back, Ito Hirobumi thought, "Oh, I knew that Lin Yuan was not that easy to deal with, so I should withdraw my troops now, and get out of the mess of Kaishantun as soon as possible."

So Ito Hirobumi asked the Japanese Army Staff Headquarters to issue an order to Nogi Nozomi to withdraw troops, but after receiving the telegram, Nogi Nozomi even replied that he would not withdraw troops, and also denounced the people at the General Staff Headquarters as soft-headed and idiots, not loyal to the emperor at all A samurai, but a puppet played by a government official!

The Japanese Army Staff Headquarters also wanted to prevent Nogi Nozomi from withdrawing his troops, so he tried every means to shirk Ito Hirobumi.There is a strange thing about the Japanese army, that is: all countries in the world are run by civilian officials, and the army belongs to the government, and it must be dispatched by government officials, that is, civilian officials, while the Japanese army is dispatched by the army itself, that is to say: the army You can do whatever you want, and the government cannot interfere.

What is the status of the government in the eyes of the Japanese army?They are just nurses and nannies. When the army has no more soldiers, they tell the government that the government is responsible for recruiting soldiers. As for where the recruited soldiers go and who they fight, the government has no right to ask. When the army needs weapons, they also tell the government that the government will Take out money to make weapons. As for how much it costs and where the money comes from, the army doesn't care. Anyway, if the government doesn't take out weapons, it will be disloyal to the emperor.

Therefore, the Japanese Army Staff Headquarters was unwilling to be intervened by Ito Hirobumi, so it acquiesced in Nogi Nozomi's refusal to retreat. Ito Hirobumi saw that he had exhausted all his organs, but was finally stabbed in the back by his own people. Don't mention the resentment.

Since Naimu Xidian doesn't withdraw his troops, Lin Yuan will beat him up!On December 26, the No.20 Regiment of the Seventh Division of Lin Yuan replaced the armored battalion of the Second Division under the leadership of the regiment leader Lu Xinghua. The No.20 Regiment of the Seventh Division is an integrated mechanized infantry regiment with two tanks battalion, ninety tk-96 tanks, and two battalions of infantry fighting vehicles. Lin Yuan even allocated to them forty 122mm self-propelled howitzers belonging to the division's self-propelled artillery battalion.

The head of the regiment, Lu Xinghua, was full of confidence, but Zhou Xiao, the commander of the second division, poured cold water on him. Zhou Xiao said: "The enemy has set up a lot of fortifications in Kaishantun, and they intend to stick to them for a long time. You must deal with them carefully."

Lu Xinghua smiled and said, "Don't worry, Comrade Commander, our regiment will definitely clean up the Japanese army."

Zhou Xiao then told Lu Xinghua the situation of the early battle, and then retreated back. After seeing the situation of the Japanese fortifications, Lu Xinghua immediately held a meeting to discuss the situation of the battle.

Lu Xinghua said: "I believe everyone has seen the fortifications of the Japanese army. I have to say that their fortifications are not as good as those of the Qing army. They only have one anti-tank trench. We have seen this thing when we were fighting the Qing army. Not many, I believe everyone knows how to crack it, but the tank camp in Beishan is too far away from Kaishantun, and it is inconvenient to fight, so I decided that the first tank battalion, the first infantry battalion and the engineer battalion will start [-] kilometers north of Kaishantun. There is an advanced camp on Beishan, and here is a very suitable camp near Beishan."

The [-]st Tank Battalion and the [-]st Infantry Battalion immediately followed the Engineer Battalion to build a camp near Beishan. Since the engineering equipment of the Engineer Battalion and the infantry fighting vehicles of the Infantry Battalion were faster than the tanks, they set off first and waited until they arrived at the scheduled time. When it was in the location, it happened to be bumped into by a Japanese reconnaissance unit.

The Japanese reconnaissance troops found Lin Yuan's troops, and Lin Yuan's troops also found them, but neither side opened fire. The Japanese reconnaissance troops quickly withdrew, and the [-]st Battalion also reported the news to Lu Xinghua. Lu Xinghua analyzed: The Japanese army's current strategy is Stick to it, so they will not be dispatched, so the First Battalion of Infantry War and the Engineer Battalion will build the camp according to the original plan.

The Japanese scouts didn't know that Lin Yuan's tank unit was behind, so they reported to Kumamoto Masaichi this way: "We found the Chinese army, mainly infantry fighting vehicles and engineering vehicles."

As soon as Kumamoto heard that there was no main artillery tank unit, he immediately called his staff officer Yoshizawa Tadayong, and said, "Immediately formulate a battle plan, and give Lin Yuan's troops a head-on blow while they are not getting a firm foothold."

Yoshizawa Zhongyong hurriedly said: "But Lin Yuan has no reason to withdraw all the main artillery tank units and replace them with infantry. I think Lin Yuan's army must also have a main artillery tank unit, but our scouts didn't find it. "

Kumamoto was in a hurry to win a big battle, so he didn't want to think so much, so he said anxiously: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to be too careful, let our main artillery tank troops go faster. Annihilating their infantry and engineers before the tank troops arrived, and now we need a victory so badly."

Yoshizawa Tadayong immediately mobilized the Second Battalion of the Chariot Regiment and asked them to set off quickly to attack Lin Yuan's troops. The captain of the Second Chariot Battalion, Sakuragi Kazuyoshi, immediately became excited after receiving the order, and led the [-] tanks of the Second Battalion to set off. Sakuragi Heshan knew that Lin Yuan's troops could interfere with their communication, so he simply gave up the team play and formulated a set of "crazy wolf tactics" for his subordinates.

The so-called "mad wolf tactics" means that after the battle starts, every tank must behave like a mad wolf, without cooperation or teamwork, fighting alone, even if they are killed by the Chinese, they must be injured. In this way, they can take advantage of their large number!Finally defeated Lin Yuan's troops.

This desperate lunatic style of play was immediately accepted by every tank soldier in the second brigade, because the education they received was "devotion education", and the highest value of their life was to die for the emperor!

Sakuragi Hezen led the Second Battalion, set off at 26:[-] am on December [-], and arrived at a place three kilometers away from Lin Yuan's troops at [-]:[-] am. The tank troops of the [-]th Division also arrived at this time. The Japanese army Just in time to meet the tank troops of the Seventh Division head-on!

Sakuragi Heshan was dumbfounded when he saw the main artillery tanks appearing in front of him, and thought: "Didn't the information say that there are no main artillery tanks? What's going on?"

At this time, several squadron leaders sent a message asking: "Captain, shall we fight or not?"

Sakuragi and Yoshimitsu were about to order an attack, but on second thought, it was absolutely impossible, because the order from his superiors was for him to sneak attack infantry tank units and engineering units. Now that there are main artillery tanks, if he loses, he will have to be cut open , So Sakuragi kindly contacted Kumamoto Masaichi, and Kumamoto Masaichi immediately issued an order to retreat after hearing the report.

The Japanese tanks turned around and walked back one after another. Li Yonglong, the battalion commander of the first tank battalion, said loudly when he saw it: "Little devils want to run, brothers, don't let them slip away, let me chase them!
