But if Dashanyan and they have this kind of scruples, then the only result of Shen Zhaoao's arrangements is to use the shells of the Japanese fleet to bombard the Japanese army's shelter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This is obviously not the combat effect that Shen Zhaoao wants to achieve.

"How can we ensure that the Japanese army can honestly enter Jinzhou City? Even if you go into two or three squadrons, it's better than nothing. ”

Shen Zhaoao looked at the pillar of smoke at the mouth of Dalian Bay that gradually turned into white smoke, and the more he thought about it, the more headache he felt.

"Groove! Looking at these grandsons and coaxing, I really want to bombard them a few times. ”

The dog-headed military advisor Zhao Liuhong opened his crotch, stood on the edge of the fort, and used his little bird to release water at the mouth of the bay.

"Where do you go to steal cannons; Now there is only a field cannon on the side of Nanguanling, which can barely hit the side of this fort, relying on your little bird bombardment? ”

Mao Chao also opened his crotch and stood beside Zhao Liuhong, throwing the guy to show Zhao Liuhong the water.

"Xujiashan's heavy artillery can bombard it."

Zhao Liuhong said unconvinced.

"Isn't Xujiashan's heavy artillery destroyed, rely on your mouth to bombard Xujiashan?"

Mao Chao sneered at Zhao Fatzi.

"Well, they just dismantled the small parts and threw them down the hill of the fort."

Zhao Liuhong showed a little smugness of 'you don't know this'.

"Really?"

Shen Zhaoao interjected in surprise and joy and asked Zhao Fatzi.

Dalian Bay, eight o'clock.

The mine-sweeping detachment entered Dalian Bay, and today they will focus on clearing the mines in the area around Laolong Island and the pier and pier at the mouth of the Quanshui River, so as to clear the way for ships to dock in the East Ocean in the future.

East of Jinzhou City, Wenjiajiao, Temporary Headquarters of the Second Army of the Japanese Army, 8:06 a.m.

After receiving a report that the 1st Engineer Brigade had cleared out of Jinzhou City and that the workers had cleared 39 dry mines, Dashanyan hesitated for a moment and ordered the 2nd Squadron of the 6th Engineer Brigade to clean up and start cleaning up Fuzhou Avenue.

The 1st Engineer Brigade was ordered to postpone its entry into Jinzhou City, and a cavalry detachment was dispatched to bypass Jinzhou City and go to the east bank of Xiaotuozi Bay to observe the situation in Dalian Bay.

Dalian Bay, 8:20.

The 1st Guerrilla Group of Japanese Ships slowly sailed into Dalian Bay, then turned right and headed north towards the waters of Xiaotuozi Bay.

On the Yoshino ship, Tsuboi Kozo stood on the bridge and was full of ambition.

Because in the Battle of Dadonggou, the First Guerrilla Force led by him took a single column and attacked the Beiyang Fleet from behind at the right time.

As a result, the situation was reversed, and 4 cruisers of the Beiyang Navy were sunk, which at this time was hailed domestically as the greatest contributor to the victory of the combined fleet.

I heard that His Majesty the Emperor has decided to promote him to the rank of Vice Admiral and confer the title of Baron.

Now just waiting for the defeat of Jinzhou, these clowns of the Qing army in Dalian, he can lead the fleet back to the port of Tokyo and enjoy the supreme glory he deserves.

Thinking of this, Tsuboi Kozo couldn't help but glance back at the capital ship group anchored at the mouth of Dalian Bay, with a smug smile in the depths of his eyes.

Nineteen of the senior generals of the Imperial Army were from the Changzhou Domain, while almost all of the senior generals of the Navy were from the Satsuma Domain.

For a long time, the admirals who were born in the Satsuma Domain have been squeezing out their own alternatives to the Nagasu Domain.

The angry Tsuboi Hangzo often buys alcohol and gets drunk, and then goes to the kiln to prostitute his mother Sang, and finds those middle-aged women to tell them about the bitterness in their hearts.

However, with his impressive talent and unremitting efforts, he finally stood out.

Rear Admiral, Lieutenant General, looks like a difference of one level, but in terms of power, it is a geometric increase, which means that he has since stepped into the top handful of the Imperial Navy.

He will be the first Imperial Vice Admiral from the Cheung Chau Domain!

At this moment, Tsuboi Hangzo was blowing the sea breeze in the bay, and his heart was extremely relieved.

By the time the group sailed to the preparatory sea area of Xiaotuozi Bay, it was already 8:45 a.m., and the 4th ships of the 1st Guerrilla Group immediately stopped their march and began to make final preparations for the bombardment of Jinzhou.

"Kato, compare the coordinate map of Jinzhou, use the artillery rangefinder, aim at Jinzhou City, use 4 main guns and 8 152mm caliber guns, all load flowering shells, and burn Jinzhou City for me!"

Tsuboi Hangzo looked at the white and intoxicating Dadong Mountain in the east sun, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

I don't know if it snows in Tokyo.

Mt. Fuji must be covered in silver, right?

"Hey!"

Captain Yuzaburo Kato, the gunnery chief of the Yoshino ship, answered the order loudly, and then walked quickly off the bridge to arrange the combat mission.

"Nakamura, Messenger Naniwa, Akitsuzhou, Takachiho, rapid-fire guns with a caliber of more than 120mm are loaded with flowering shells, aiming at Jinzhou City and standby; At 9:30, a five-minute rapid-fire artillery cover will be carried out, turning Jinzhou City into a ghost field of the molten city! ”

"Hey!"

Captain Shizuka Nakamura, a staff officer of the 1st Guerrilla Brigade, received the order loudly.

Tsuboi took out his pocket watch, the hands were now pointing at 8:50, forty minutes before the time of the shelling.

One can imagine how frightened and desperate the Qing troops in the city would be when the overwhelming high-explosive bombs slammed down on the city of Jinzhou forty minutes later!

"Boom!"

At this time, on a hill inside Dalian Bay, there was a sudden roar of artillery, and it was a heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 152mm.

Soon, several screaming shells came over, blasting several huge columns of water in the sea not far from the shore.

"These Qing troops—"

Tsuboi Kozo looked at the water column on the sea in the distance that was gradually subsiding in surprise, and it felt incredible.

"Are these Qing gunners and their commanders idiots? If only it could blow up a ship,——"

The captain of the Yoshino ship, Kawara, shook his head again and again: "Then it's like losing silver dollars, a hundred times in a row is a miracle like the Sun Star." ”

"There is no need to deal with these idiots, prepare their respective tasks, prepare to shell the city of Golden State; Hum! ”

Tsuboi Hangzo snorted coldly and said, "Let them see with their own eyes the precision and sharpness of the Imperial Navy's artillery fire." ”

Xujiashan, 8:50.

"Fire!"

The artillerymen of Mao Chao's department looked for parts for five heavy guns in Xujiashan, quickly loaded the shells that were urgently transported from the Liushutun arsenal, and then began to spread the heavy artillery into Dalian Bay.

8:51 a.m.

"Why is there another fight in Dalian Bay? It's heavy artillery! ”

Dashanyan, who was basking in the sun outside the headquarters, suddenly looked in the direction of Dalian Bay, his eyes were full of shock and anger: "What are they doing in the United Fleet Ito Yuheng, the ironclad ship group built with all the power of the empire can't capture a small bay for a few days?" ”

"The heavy artillery in the direction of Dalian Bay shows that there seem to be two misunderstandings in the previous judgment of the Qing army."

Chief of Staff Odaiji Yasujun pondered and said: "First, it shows that the Imperial Navy did not break the coastal defense batteries of the Qing army, and is still fighting; Second, it shows that the Qing army probably felt that it was too difficult to open up two battlefields in Jinzhou and Dalian Bay, so they took the initiative to abandon Jinzhou and chose to defend Dalian Bay with all their might. ”

"Yo Xi, your analysis of the Great Temple is very reasonable!"

Dashan Yan greatly praised Oji Yasujun, and then began to issue the latest instructions: "Order two squadrons of the engineer squadron to enter Jinzhou City, and one to clear the hidden dangers around Jinzhou City." ”

"Order the 2nd Wing of the Sakura Infantry to march directly in the direction of Dalian Bay, and in case of resistance, immediately attack; The rest of the troops were put on standby. ”
