Hearing that Kuropagent said that the First Army of Siberia would be transferred, Major General Ai Eduud was a little stunned, and the Second Collective Army was reduced in strength because of the last battle. At present, this army is the weakest among the three army groups, although they have never wanted the independent army, which has made everyone lose face, but the general staff still classifies this army under the second army, plus the supplement of the first army in Siberia, so that the strength of the second army can basically be equal to that of several other group armies. But now that the First Army of Siberia is to be mobilized, the only fully formed unit, Major General Ai Elliud is a little puzzled, "Your Excellency, in this case, the Second Army will be less than 70,000 people, and there are still 20,000 Qing people in it, if the Japanese launch an offensive on the right flank, then our strength will ......."

"The main direction of the Japanese attack is our left flank now, and the army attacking Qinghe City is coming by train from Lushun, we must be glad that they are attacking the mountains and forests, now just transfer the 1st Siberian Army and the 16th Reserve Army and trap them in the damned mountains and forests." Kuropagent was very happy with the appearance of the Japanese Third Army, and he finally did not have to worry about the safety of the rear road.

Seeing that the commander-in-chief insisted on the order, Major General Ai Eduud could only follow the order, and the transfer that determined the direction of the battle began. The information of the enemy's large-scale movement to the left flank was transmitted to the headquarters of the Manchurian Army, and Kodama Gentaro immediately ordered the Third Army to move forward to the right flank of the Russian army, and in order to cover up the intentions of the whole army, the First Army close to the Yalu River Army, the Fourth and Second Armies in the central position began to shell the Russian positions on the 28th, especially the six 28o guns of the Fourth Army in the central position, although the shells could not break through the fortifications under the thick ice, but each artillery still made all the Russian troops on the position fearful.

The battle continued as predicted, and the Japanese were attacking Fushun and the left flank of the Russian army at the same time. The right flank also launched a fierce offensive, and the Independent Army also retreated from Ciyutuozi in front of Sifangtai to Sifangtai, and then from Sifangtai to Zhangyizhan Station, and then to Shalingbao, and so on step by step with the Japanese Third Army to the north. It was only on April 7 that it finally stopped at Santaizi, which was already more than 20 miles north of Fengtian City.

At 7 o'clock in the evening of April 8, the officers of the 1st Division of the General Staff of the Independent Army held a small meeting on the map, and Lei Yizhen held the latest information gathered from various battlefields, pointed to the map and explained to the participants: "...... Yesterday evening, the 1st Brigade reported that the Russian 1st Army and the Qinghecheng detachment opposite it had retreated from the vicinity of the rescue platform. At the time of the retreat, all the nearby villages were set on fire, which was the usual expression of the Russian army's retreat, and the Japanese troops who were holding the Shahe Fort and Wanbaoshan south of Mukden with the Russian army were observed to have also begun to advance, from which we can infer that we can infer it. The General Command of the Russian Army should have given the order to retreat, and this order to retreat should have been directed only against the First and Third Armies......"

After Lei Yizhen finished speaking, the staff officers below moved the logo of the Russian army on the map to the north. The First Brigade did not stay long after capturing the rescue station and retreated, and the Beidaling plan that fooled Hanada Shaozuo was also "scattered" due to the Russian army's crazy shelling in the face of the desperate assault of the Russian army in Qinghe City. Despite this, the Japanese army unanimously believed that the fighting will of the old demon department of Montenegro was the most resolute among all the Qing horse thief troops, and the commander of the Japanese Yalu River Army, General Kawamura Keimei, also wrote a letter of commendation. I hope that the Montenegrin Department can wave this warrior spirit of resolute fighting and continue to fight against Lu Guo. Army. However, after the Yalu River Army occupied Qinghe City, it held against the Russian army near the rescue platform and Majun Village, and it was not until this morning that the Russian army retreated and was able to advance again.

“…… We judged that the reason for Kuropatkin's retreat was most likely due to the appearance of the Japanese cavalry unit of Akiyama Yoshiko in the north of Mukden, which was fully strengthened, and it probably numbered about 6,000 people, and Kuropatkin was probably worried that the railway would be cut off, so he withdrew his troops to the area on the left bank (north bank) of the Hunhe River. Previously, the Russian army had set up a second line of defense here......"

"How far ...... to retreat"

"The Russian army has an advantage in strength, why should it retreat......"

"Retreat from the front line of Shahebao and Sujiatun to the left bank of the Hunhe River, isn't this looking for death......

"Yes, this is equivalent to a retreat of twenty or thirty miles to the north, and the troops will definitely fall into chaos in such a retreat......"

"Spicy next door than that. I think he's an old birthday star hanged ......"

Before Lei Yizhen's words were finished, he was interrupted by the officers, and the conference room was in chaos, Yang Rui raised his throat when he saw this, coughed twice, and the conference room suddenly fell silent, he nodded at Lei Yizhen, and motioned for him to continue.

"If the Russian Third and First Armies retreat to the left bank of the Hunhe River, then it is very likely that the troops will fall into confusion so that the Japanese army will have a chance to take advantage of it, but it is also possible that under the resistance of the reserve forces, the Russian army will safely withdraw to the second line of defense and stand firm, and because the garrison positions become shorter after the retreat, there will be surplus troops to be withdrawn to strengthen the forces west of Mukden, that is, on our side, and repel the outflanking of the Japanese Third Army and the Second Army......

According to the latest information collected, the situation in the west of Fengtian is roughly that the Japanese Second Army is forcibly seizing Yuhongtun in the west of the city with the Russian Tenth Army, where the fighting is extremely fierce, and the Second Army has mobilized many troops to reinforce here, and with the cover of the Second Army, the Japanese Third Army has been able to continue to approach northward, its Ninth Division has reached the Dajiao Bridge, the Seventh Division has reached the town of Zaohua in the northwest, and the First Division is completely on the line of Sitaizi and Daoyi Town in the north, and there is already a posture of comprehensive encirclement of Fengtian. As for our army, we can ignore the fact that the 9th Division is in the southwest direction of our army, but the town of Zaohua occupied by the 7th Division is directly west of our army, and the distance between the two armies is only 12 miles, while the town of Daoyi occupied by the 1st Division is directly north of our army, and the distance between them is only 16 miles......"

Lei Yizhen paused a little when he said this, and the officers present did not talk as much as before, so he continued: "The First Division and the Seventh Division are both descendants of the Third Army, of which the First Division is mainly the Japanese Tokyo Army, and among the twelve regular divisions of the Japanese Army, it is considered to be the division with the worst combat effectiveness except for the Fourth Division, that is, the Osaka Division; The main soldiers of the 7th Division came from Asahikawa and Sapporo in Hokkaido, Japan, which were the poorest places in Japan, where men were proud to be soldiers and women were proud to be "jinv". Although this force was almost completely wiped out during the attack on Lushun, it was still very effective after replenishment. ”

Lei Yizhen's introduction was basically over, and the staff officers also marked the corresponding positions of the enemy and our armies on the map; on the whole, the Japanese attack before the 7th had been effectively contained. Its accumulated strength was basically exhausted, but after Kuropagent gave the order to retreat, now the Japanese army seemed to have regained the initiative, and the Japanese Second Army attacked the west gate of Mukden from the south, and the Japanese Third Army detoured back to the north of Mukden from the west gate of Mukden, and was about to complete the deep encirclement of Mukden. But. No amount of encirclement would be a threat to the Independence Army north of Mukden, and if the Russian army was not taken into account, the Kung Fu Independence Army could penetrate west or north in one night, thus jumping out of the Japanese encirclement and retreating north along the Liao River to the vicinity of Tieling. Although he was able to do this, Yang Rui did not dare to do so. One is that he is now under the jurisdiction of the Russian army, and leaving the battlefield is to escape, which is not conducive to getting along with the Russian army in the future, and the second is that picking up foreign land has always been the goal of the independent army, so he withdrew those mules and horses in vain. So, this time, without consulting with everyone, the order was issued:

"Immediately. The 4th, 7th, and 8th Regiments, as well as all the baggage troops, drove overnight to Wenguantun, ten miles to the east, to establish a defensive line, and the two divisions were to form horns against each other against the Japanese army; The remaining five regiments began to strengthen their fortifications tonight, taking turns to prevent night attacks on the diary; Scouts carried telegraph machines to Zaohua Town and Daoyi Town to set up strongholds to keep an eye on the movements of the Japanese army; The cavalry battalion broke north to reconnoiter the situation of the Japanese army near the Hushitai railway station, and if the station was captured by the Japanese army, it would immediately report to the headquarters...... "The officers were quickly ordered to leave, but Wu Baodi, who was in charge of the second division, was left behind by Yang Rui.

"How is Zhang Zongchang's side? Is there any instability in the morale of the army? "Since the official operation began on the 28th of last month, the Independent Army has been fighting for 12 consecutive days, although Yang Rui has always been very conservative and does not go all out. But the troops were already tired from the days of fighting, and had been retreating from the beginning of the war, and although each retreat was well arranged, the constant retreat put a lot of pressure on the soldiers. After arriving at Santaizi, Yang Rui established a defensive line here. In order to fear that the second division would have a problem, the ring position around Santaizi was intermittently more than 20 miles long, and he only let the second division defend the southwest section with the least pressure.

"It's pretty much fine." Wu Baodi didn't dare to say it too much, so he had to use the word "basic", "When I just withdrew to Santaizi the day before yesterday, the army's heart was a little chaotic, especially the beards of the Fifth Regiment, their hearts and eyes were still very active, and they knew that it was not normal to retreat like this, but I said at the time that these three platforms were all north of Fengtian City, and even if they were besieged, they were also troops in those places south of the city, and we couldn't surround them." After persuasion, everyone's feelings were much better. ”

"Oh, that's it......" Yang Rui has always wanted to incorporate the second division, but the upper echelons of the Russian army seem to have been very taboo about this, and after the chief of staff who was a retired officer was transferred last time, he sent another active officer over.

Wu Baodi fully knew Yang Rui's plans, and he was also trying to figure out how to bring the second division over, "Zhang Zongchang still has a good impression of us, he once drank and said that if the Russian army disbanded the troops after the war, he would be willing to mix with Mr. ”

Yang Rui smiled at this kind of drunken talk, "This is not true, Zhang Zongchang is a filial son, I heard that his father died early, followed by his mother to remarry, and suffered a lot, he will not let his mother know that he is a beard." He wants to scold us now because he is afraid that we will make a trick for him, many things will be born on the battlefield, and if he does not have a good relationship with his comrades, then it is very likely that he will play himself to death. ”

Wu Baodi didn't see it as thoroughly as Yang Rui, he looked back and thought about it, it was really the truth, so Zhang Zongchang was still very cunning, and his previous grinning and frizzy appearance was probably pretended. "What shall we do now, sir?"

"Now it's a war, and although we are under less pressure and not in danger of being surrounded, we still have to unite with friendly forces. As for merging the second division, it's not impossible, but we have to wait for the opportunity, and if it really doesn't work, then wait for the Russian army to dismiss us and then win over those who want to be soldiers. Yang Rui said.

"Severance?"

"Yes, after this war, there will basically be no more major battles in the Northeast, Japan and Russia are exhausted, so they can only shake hands and make peace, and the Russian army will definitely dismiss us at that time. Guns, artillery, ammunition and everything have to be handed in, so we have to pick up more things this time, otherwise the logistics will be troublesome in the future. After Yang Rui finished speaking, he said: "You go back, the war will end soon, come and report if you have anything." ”

"The student understood." After Wu Baodi finished speaking, he got up and went back.

When Yang Rui was talking about Zhang Zongchang, in the camp tent of the Second Division, Zhang Zongchang was holding a pistol at Xiao Jinfeng, "Who are you, what do you have to do with the Japanese over there in Zaohua Town?" ”

"Giggle...... Look at your panic, are you still a man? "Facing Zhang Zongchang's pistol. Xiao Jinfeng was not afraid at all, she even wanted to come over and hug Zhang Zongchang, but Zhang Zongchang stepped back when he saw her coming, and didn't touch her at all, "Don't move there, don't make it clear that you don't want to go out of this door today." ”

"Say it clearly, make it clear. I thought my mother was afraid of you. Hum! Xiao Jinfeng sat at the head of the bed instead of advancing and retreating, and then grabbed his braid and played with it, "I'm actually a Japanese!" ”

"Japanese?!"

"yes, I'm Japanese."

“……”

"I'm really a Japanese, and the Japanese soldiers over there in Zaohua Town are all my fellow villagers." Xiao Jinfeng said her identity and was not worried about what Zhang Zongchang would do to her, she knew this man.

After getting married, Xiao Jinfeng's previous buddies always went out of the camp from time to time. The following report said that he was very strange about what these people were doing, this morning the brothers of the Fifth Regiment actually showed that these people had gone to Zaohua Town, which was occupied by the Japanese, Zhang Zongchang knew that while ordering those who knew about it to strictly publicize the news, he retreated from others to interrogate him personally.

"And what about your sister, who is also Japanese?" Zhang Zongchang suddenly thought of Xiao Yinfeng.

"She, giggle...... How could she be Japanese, she was a girl I saved before, and she recognized me as a sister for Xie Li's life-saving grace. ”

It seems that the situation is not as bad as imagined, and Zhang Zongchang breathed a sigh of relief. He put the gun away and said, "You guys and I have already locked up, you will stay here in the future and don't go out, and I will clean you up after the war." ”

"Yo, how are you going to clean up?" Xiao Jinfeng was not surprised at all by Zhang Zongchang's handling. She knew he would show mercy.

"You! If you do this now, you will make the mountain eagle misunderstand that you are a spy of the Japanese, he hates the Japanese so much, and you even let your sister touch his bed, doesn't this clearly show that you want to spy on the military, you will let me stay here again during this time, and I will talk to him about this after the war, when I drink. Zhang Zongchang hated iron and steel, he didn't mind whether his wife was Chinese or Japanese, he only knew that this woman was his wife, although he was Japanese, as long as he didn't look for trouble, he could still protect it.

When Zhang Zongchang spoke, Xiao Jinfeng looked at his eyes, according to the experience of dealing with men, she could be sure that this man was not lying, and her heart suddenly felt a little warm, but ......

"I'm actually a spy for the Japanese!" Xiao Jinfeng strained his face and prepared for a complete showdown.

"What?!" Zhang Zongchang touched the holster of the gun again, thinking that she was just a Japanese, and she might not be a spy when she went to Zaohua Town, who knows......

"Boss, why are you so desperate, what's the good ...... to follow the Russians" Xiao Jin Feng stepped forward and put his hand into Zhang Zongchang's jacket and rubbed it, "Now that the Russians are retreating one after another, they will soon be surrounded, will you surrender or die in battle at that time?" ”

Zhang Zongchang suddenly understood that this woman was indeed a spy of the Japanese, otherwise how would she know that the Russian army was going to be encircled.

“…… If the head of the house now takes the second division to Japan, I can guarantee that we will not give you less than the Russians. Xiao Jinfeng continued, "However, the mountain eagle has killed a lot of us, if we ......"

"Stop dreaming!" Zhang Zongchang punched out the hand that inserted the little golden phoenix into his clothes and teased him around, "The Russians are bad, but they are not thin to me Zhang Zongchang, don't talk about the mountain carving, such a heroic character, and call me a brother, I don't mean to look down on me at all, if you want me to betray my brother, save it." After Zhang Zongchang finished speaking, he glared at Xiao Jinfeng again, "You still stay here honestly, I will let you and your subordinates go after the war." But if you're not honest, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

Seeing that Zhang Zongchang finally turned his face, Xiao Jinfeng laughed instead, "Okay, people say that a husband and wife are a hundred days, you are good, and you will not recognize people when you turn your face," Speaking of this, she suddenly cried, "What did people give you, now that the war is critical, people just want to leave you an extra way, if you really want to be surrounded by the Japanese and lose your head, it will be too late, why don't you know the hard work of everyone." ”

Zhang Zongchang was still hating the Japanese spies, but now when he heard Xiao Jinfeng say this, he felt pity for a while, and stepped forward to comfort: "Whoever takes refuge in him or not, this one is not good, and he will lose his head, and now that I am on the ship of the Russians, how can I abandon it when others are in trouble, isn't this ruthless and unrighteous taking advantage of people's danger?" If I really do, how will I see people in the future? Don't worry about it, after this battle, take the money you have saved, take my mother, we will find a place to buy hundreds of stone land, live the life of the master, and don't rush to this troubled water in the future. ”

It seemed that Zhang Zongchang's persuasion had an effect, Xiao Jinfeng stopped crying, she asked, "What you said is true?" ”

Seeing the beautiful pear blossom in his arms with rain, Zhang Zongchang nodded vigorously, "Really! If I coax you, I won't die well. ”
