Joseon Governor-General's Palace.

"Your Excellency the Governor, Tokyo Emergency!" Koizumi Marsh, head of the Intelligence Headquarters of the Governor's Office, quickly ran into the study of General Masatsuki in the temple.

The general quickly received the telegram with a look of ecstasy on his face.

"Roar, Roar! Your Excellency the Marshal is really wise and powerful! The stupid Okuma Shigenobu went so far as to persuade His Majesty the Emperor to give up sending troops. It's a shame for the Empire. Fortunately, there is a shrewd marshal. With this power of attorney from the Emperor, the Governor will definitely take over the three eastern provinces in the shortest possible time. Masaki Terauchi's eyes flashed with a devouring light.

"Koizumi-kun, immediately inform Lieutenant General Toshiyin Matsukawa to prepare to launch an attack on the Shina army, and I will limit him to enter the hinterland of Mukden within three hours!"

"Hay!"

On the border of the confrontation between China and North Korea, the commander of the Korean garrison, Matsukawa Toshiyin, received a telegram from General Terauchi, and his heart was overjoyed.

"Send a telegram to Lieutenant General Yoshiko Akiyama of the 3rd Division and order the 3rd Division to attack!" At present, the three divisions of Japan in Korea are organized into the Korean Army, which is under the command of the Korean Governor-General's Office. And Lieutenant General Yoshiko Akiyama is the division commander of the 3rd Division, and he is also a strong candidate for the next commander of the Korean Army, and for Japanese soldiers, military merit is the best honor and the best step to advancement. Therefore, Akiyama Yoshigu had already sharpened his knife for the third division to attack Mukden Province. After receiving the order, the 3rd Division was ready in less than half an hour and launched an attack on the positions of the 2nd Brigade without warning.

Although the 2nd Brigade has always been prepared for possible attacks by the Japanese army, there are only 1,000 days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to guard against thieves. In the face of the sudden attack of the Japanese army, the 2nd Brigade was very passive, coupled with the suppression of the superior artillery of the Japanese army, it was broken through two lines of defense by the Japanese army in just one hour. The unsuspecting elite 21st Regiment of the 2nd Brigade was blinded by the sudden battle and quickly retreated.

Mukden, the temporary headquarters of the Northeast Security Army.

"What! The 3rd Division of the Japanese Army fought without declaring a war, and within an hour broke through the two lines of defense of the 2nd Brigade! What does he Lin Hu eat! The 30,000-strong army could not withstand the attack of 20,000 enemies. Feng Yong was furious. The Japanese army's undeclared war was indeed beyond his expectations. During this time, the Tohoku Governor's Office received information from the Japanese government was also inclined to peace talks between the two sides. No wonder during World War II, even though the Japanese occupied a large number of colonies in the world, their international status could never surpass that of Britain and France.

"Brother Chuan, let's set off immediately! I really don't worry about the situation on the front line, the most elite Second Brigade of the Southeast Military Region actually fought the war like this, which is really a nest. It seems that it was a mistake to put Lin Hu on the throne of the commander of the Southeast Military District. Feng Yong said with a gloomy expression. Originally, his idea was to send generals with better military capabilities to the Southeast Military Region during the Sino-Japanese conflict, but in the last battle of Fengtian, Lin Hu showed great progress. This made Feng Yong temporarily press the idea of transferring other cadres, after all, Lin Hu had made great contributions to the construction of the Southeast Military Region, and coupled with the considerable command ability he showed last time, Feng Yong also put the matter on hold. I wanted to wait for myself and Li Jun to go to the front line, so that there would not be the slightest problem. However, the inaction of the Japanese government made Feng Yong have a wrong judgment about Japan's movements. This led to the present failure.

"Young marshal, don't worry, I've read Lin Hu's telegram! It was the Japanese army that concentrated superior artillery fire and launched a sneak attack, and the soldiers of the 2nd Brigade were caught off guard and lost the first line of defense. The second line of defense was given up by Lin Hu on his own initiative, in order to thwart the enemy's spirit. Frankly speaking, Lin Hu's approach was not wrong! After all, there is still a big gap between our firepower and the Japanese. ”

"I know this, I am angry that he did not perceive the enemy's attack, and that most of the soldiers of a regiment were scrapped in this way. I feel so distressed! Feng Yong's face was very bad, and it could be seen from the telegram that the 21st Regiment stationed at the front had lost more than half, and the morale of the soldiers was also very low. You must know that the 21st Regiment is the most elite regiment of the 2nd Brigade, and it was originally the ace unit of the 2nd Brigade, but it was beaten by the enemy and lost its combat effectiveness.

Li Jun nodded, didn't say anything, Lin Hu was indeed a little lax, after all, his duty was to keep an eye on the enemy in front of him. The enemy did not even notice the dispatch, causing heavy losses to the 21st Regiment, and Lin Hu was also responsible.

"Young Marshal, do you want to send the Western Military Region south to participate in the war?" After all, the current war situation is not going well, and it is understandable to send the most elite Western Military Region to participate in the war.

"Don't worry, it's not time yet!" Feng Yong also has his own pride in his heart. He has 80,000 men on the front line, and the enemy has only 20,000 men, so if he needs to send reinforcements, even if he wins, it will be a humiliating victory. Moreover, now that war is going on the border of Korea, the Japanese government is likely to declare war on the Tohoku Governor's Office, and at that time, with Japan's strong naval power, it will transport soldiers to Mukden in the shortest possible time. Feng Yong was ready to use the entire Fengtian Province as a big battlefield, so that the Northeast Security Army could compete with Japan. If the 2nd Brigade could not resist the Japanese attack, how could it face the greater danger that was coming.

"Brother Chuanxin, now you are going to be my chief of staff again! Is the government's work arranged? Partnering with Li Jun, Feng Yong has the confidence to have a good time with the Japanese.

"The work has been handed over to the big boss! I believe that even if I am not in the provincial government, there will be no major problems. ”

"Yes! It's time for the police force established by the original security regiment of the 28th Division to be dispatched! These troops cannot go to the battlefield, and it is more than enough to maintain local law and order. After the 28th Division was annexed, more than a dozen security regiments in the western part of Fengtian were broken up and integrated by Feng Yong, and many disabled soldiers of the public security corps were added to serve as leaders, and the Fengtian Police Corps was established. After these days of training, it has somewhat looked. After all, these people turned out to be militarily trained. Turning into a police officer also has the ability to maintain law and order throughout Mukden.

"I'm afraid there will be moves by the forces that oppose us during this time. But the better we fight on the battlefield, the more stable our rear will be. "Li Jun is open to many things.

"Don't worry! With his father in Mukden and these police forces, Mukden Province can't be chaotic. Besides, there are not four brigades sitting in Fengtian City, if there is an emergency, it can be completely handled! Feng Yong had no intention of bringing the Fourth Brigade to the battlefield.

"Young Marshal, do you mean that the Fourth Brigade will not advance with us?"

Feng Yong nodded: "Not only the Fourth Brigade, but also the Sixth Brigade will not go to the battlefield with us, they all have other tasks!" ”

"Other tasks?" Li Jun was stunned, "I just got accurate information, the enemy only dispatched one division and more than 20,000 people this time. Our Southeast Military Region has 80,000 people, and the four-to-one ratio of forces, even if we can't destroy the Japanese, we can block them on the border. ”

Li Jun nodded, although Feng Yong's move was very risky, but if Japan did not deploy troops on a large scale, it would be a fool's dream to eat the entire Northeast Security Army with just one division. The Northeast Security Army was not an army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, nor was it a warlord army with a weak will to fight. With the ideological control of the political commissar system, the Northeast Security Army's belief in the leader Feng Yong is no worse than the Japanese bushido spirit, and the poorly equipped Northeast Security Army also attaches great importance to white-knuckle warfare. It is also combined with the masters of the green forest to create a single white-knuckle combat move that is more suitable for soldiers to learn. After all, Chinese martial arts is the ancestor of Little Japan, and there is no shortage of fierce people in the green forest, and strange people are not rare. From Zhao Ya's strong kung fu, Feng Yong also attaches great importance to traditional Chinese martial arts. The army also pays attention to the study of martial arts, although it is not possible to let each soldier become a master, but the more he learns, the more he can learn, the more chance of victory on the battlefield.

Feng Yong and Li Jun's departure was very secret, there was no fanfare, let alone driving his conspicuous car, God knows if there are Japanese spies around, if those spies give themselves a shot, then it will be a lot of fun. Feng Yongke cherishes his life very much. Feng Yong and Li Jun were mixed in the cavalry regiment of the Fourth Brigade and rapidly advanced eastward. Although there is a direct train to Dandong, but the control of the railway is in the hands of the Japanese, if their news leaks, the Japanese will give themselves a Huanggutun incident, they are not immortal, and there will be no place to cry when they are blown up.

Although the speed of the cavalry was much slower, it was better to be safe. Besides, there are 80,000 people on the front line, and it may not be so easy for the enemy to eat them. In the final analysis, Feng Yong still trusted Lin Hu, otherwise he would have been removed by telegram. Although Lin Hu's vigilance was a little worse, the subsequent handling was extremely proper, and Feng Yong had nothing to say.

At the border between China and North Korea!

"Yaga! Yaga! What is the commander of the Ryuichi Brigade Yamazaki doing! A small third line of defense has been attacked for an hour and has not been overcome! It's a bit of a grind! "Little man, Lieutenant General Akiyama Yoshiko, who has circled his legs, said with an extremely embarrassed face. It's been two hours since the attack! Commander Matsukawa gave himself three hours to attack the hinterland of Mukden, and now he has nearly 10,000 people in a brigade and regiment that cannot take the enemy's third line of defense.

"Give me the call to the commander of the Yamazaki Brigade!" Lieutenant General Akiyama Yoshiko's expression was ugly, and the result was a phone call handed over by the staff officer.

"Yaga, Yamazaki-kun! Your Shame on the Japanese Empire ,......" Lieutenant General Yoshiko Akiyama scolded Lieutenant General Yamazaki Yoshiko, and the guilty "Hai" voice of the commander of the Yamazaki Ryuichi Brigade gradually dissipated.

"Yamazaki-kun! I order you to take the third line of defense of the Chinese army in half an hour! Akiyama said undoubtedly.

On the other end of the phone, Major General Yamazaki hurriedly promised that even if his brigade ran out, he would definitely take the position for His Excellency the Lieutenant General.

Major General Yamazaki put down the phone in a cold sweat and said lightly to his chief of staff, Bai Shui: "Bai Shuijun, order the Mizusawa Wing to launch a decisive charge!" Be sure to take the position in front of you within half an hour. Open a passage for the advance of large forces. ”

Japan has a strict hierarchy within the country, and even if subordinates have opinions about the orders of their superiors, they dare not speak up at will.

The so-called decisive charge is an all-out charge at all costs, and it is with this spirit of decisive charge that Japan won the tough Russian ** team and became the winner of the Russo-Japanese War.

However, with the modernization of the Japanese army, the Japanese soldiers also understood that a decisive charge was a backward way of attack, which would cause heavy casualties to the troops. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, the Japanese top brass does not agree to the use of a decisive charge. The wild scolding of the commander of the Akiyama Division made the commander of the Yamazaki Brigade choose this decisive charge in order to win.

Front-line positions.

"Kill, give!" Following the order of the Japanese commander Mizusawa Daisa, more than 2,000 people of the Mizusawa Wing quickly rushed out of the trenches and launched an attack in the face of a hail of bullets.

The forward positions of the 2nd Brigade. Gu Long, the commander of the 22nd Regiment, looked at the Japanese troops charging in the group with an incredulous expression.

"Fuck, is little Japan crazy? Unexpectedly launched a group charge! "You must know that even the firepower of rifles should not be underestimated now, and group charges will only be used by commanders unless they have an absolute superiority in strength and the enemy does not have heavy weapons such as heavy machine guns. But Japan did not have an advantage in numbers. Isn't that a death search for a death strike!

"Order all reserves to go into battle!" Of course, Captain Gu will not give up such a good opportunity! Although the enemy's large-scale charge is a lot of pressure on the psychology of the soldiers, the soldiers of the 2nd Brigade are not new recruits, but veterans who have been in battle for many times. In the face of this obviously target-oriented charge, a look of ecstasy appeared on each face. You know, it's all military feats!

Most of the Japanese soldiers were highly educated. The officer is a graduate of a military academy. Although the commander issued an order to charge to the death, he would not be stupid enough to seek death. In addition, the technical arms within the Japanese army are very sharp, grenadiers, mortars, and superior artillery, the Japanese army's firepower is quite fierce. The soldiers of the 22nd Regiment were suppressed and could not raise their heads. In addition, the Japanese soldiers of the 3rd Division had quite good marksmanship and could shoot while running, which also caused a lot of casualties to the 22nd Regiment.

In the rear, the command of the 2nd brigade!

"Report to the Commander, the enemy has launched a decisive charge!" The herald sends in the latest battlefield information.

"Very well, order the artillery, open fire with all your might, relieve the pressure on the front-line soldiers. Heavy machine-gun positions opened fire, destroying the enemy's living forces with all their might. The enemy's sudden attack caused heavy losses to the 21st regiment, which made Lin Hu extremely embarrassed. So I was holding back the fire in my heart and wanted to give little Japan a ruthless one. Although the large artillery has been firing at the enemy, the mortar regiment and the heavy machine gun regiment have never opened! It was also feared that artillery positions and heavy machine-gun positions were destroyed by enemy fire.

Boom -- The sudden appearance of the heavy machine gun position really caught the attacking enemy by surprise, and the nearly 30 heavy machine guns that were exposed were simply a nightmare for the charging soldiers!

"Yaga! Heavy machine guns, get out of the way! Evacuate! "When the enemy exposed the mortar position and heavy machine gun position, Mizusawa Daisa's face changed wildly and asked the soldiers to retreat.

Unfortunately, it was too late for them to run. The intertwined web of fire of dozens of heavy machine guns was enough to tear thousands of people to shreds. What's more, there are only more than two thousand people in the Mizusawa United.
