In the ruins of Dingzhou, the Japanese troops shuttled back and forth, constantly firing bullets at the Feng army, and their shooting jishu was indeed superb, and soldiers kept falling to the ground. Fortunately, the Feng army had enough armored vehicles this time, and the tank once again played the role of a meat shield.

At present, the Japanese army generally lacked anti-tank weapons, and the Type 38 rifles in their hands were almost like tickling on the tank armor, and soon the Feng army cut the Japanese troops in Dingzhou into several pieces according to Jihua. Then it's like a steak, piece by piece.

After two days of fierce fighting, the Japanese army had been reduced to a small area, and the remnants of the army were less than a thousand men. The commander of the division, Shimokawa Shinichiro, was completely desperate, and the navy did not dare to risk being attacked by submarines and planes to come to their rescue, and the total destruction of the troops was inevitable.

He could only draw his saber, it was time to disembowel, but he wiped the cold saber, but his hands were trembling all the time, his eyes were dull, this lieutenant general who could treat other people's lives as nothing, was so afraid at this time, it was difficult for eternity to die!

Rumble! Another shell fell next to the headquarters, a loud bang, shaking the headquarters back and forth, faintly, it seemed that the shouting of killing could already be heard, Shimokawa finally came back to his senses at this time, his wrist was weak, and the saber fell to the ground, this knife became a poisonous snake and beast at this time, and he never dared to touch it again.

Sweating profusely, Shimokawa could only grab a fan on the side, scratch it on his stomach, and then let his subordinates shoot him to death with guns.

The division commander Shimokawa Shinichiro died, and the twentieth division was completely doomed, and the remaining few junior officers, with their men, launched a desperate charge against the Feng army, and Zuihou was all beaten into a sieve. The battle in Dingzhou was completely over, and another division was added to the merit book of the Feng army.

At this time, Sun Anhu and Jiang Dengxuan also rushed to Dingzhou, the southern line and the central line army converged together, holding the most powerful troops, they were also full of confidence, Sun Anhu said with a smile: "The little devil is not a big deal, there are already three divisions in our hands, I see if it is a request to the marshal, directly charge south, we take Seoul in one fell swoop." ”

Jiang Dengxuan heard this. It's also a little tempting, now the three major legions of the Feng Army, with a total strength of nearly 150,000 troops, bombers and tanks, can be described as strong soldiers. On the Japanese side, there was only one Third Division, which had just been transferred. The disparity in strength was obvious, and it carried the prestige of a great victory. The morale of the Feng army was at its highest. Fight all the way to Busan and take down the entire Korean Peninsula!

In fact, people who know history well know the significance of the Korean Peninsula to China's national defense, and in history, whenever Korea is invaded, China will definitely send troops. Even if they were as cowardly as the Manchus, they had to fight with the Japanese, just because Korea was too important.

The peninsula is like a gun on the door of China's head, if it is held in the hands of the enemy. Even if the other side does not shoot, China will be terrified, restless, and panicked.

Now that there is an opportunity to attack and occupy Korea, it does make the generals of the Feng army eager to try, Sun Anhu and Jiang Dengxuan, on behalf of the forward command, sent the telegram to Zhang Tinglan.

"Brother Baili, Lingge, what do you think of this telegram?" Zhang Tinglan asked with a smile.

Yang Yuting thought for a while and said: "Dashuai, the situation in North Korea at this time is indeed extremely favorable to us, and it seems that it is a little unreasonable to miss the opportunity, but it is not so easy to develop to the south, attack Seoul, and even kill Pusan, and drive the Japanese into the sea." ”

Jiang Baili couldn't help but say: "In terms of military strength, there is no problem in fighting south, but with the extension of the battle line, the logistical pressure has increased exponentially, and it is subject to the terrain of the Korean Peninsula, surrounded by the sea on three sides, we must always be on guard against the combined fleet of the Japanese, how much artillery and air force need to be occupied to ensure safety, this is probably an astronomical amount." ”

In fact, in the final analysis, it is still insufficient strength, if the Feng army is prepared for another two or three years, the logistics vehicles can be organized, and the formation of three tank divisions can be completed, and it is not impossible to seize the Korean Peninsula in one fell swoop, but at the moment it is still not enough.

But to be honest, Zhang Tinglan was not willing to give up the opportunity in front of him, he stared at the map in front of him, trying to find any loopholes to drill.

At this time, Rong Zhen suddenly ran over in a panic, with an extremely anxious look on his face: "Dashuai, the situation is not good, the Japanese combined fleet has bombarded Yuanshan!" ”

As soon as Zhang Tinglan heard this, he suddenly stood up, and when the Feng army eliminated the 20th Division, Qin Wei led his troops to attack Wonsan, which is one of the most important ports in North Korea, the most prosperous and rich, and the seized materials are quite amazing.

Qin Wei was also ready to take a temporary rest here, and then wait for further orders from the command. Of course, according to his wishes, it is best to attack Seoul directly along the railway, and join forces with the other two legions under the city, which is definitely a rare grand occasion for the Feng army.

However, just as they were resting, a Japanese fleet also quietly passed through the Sea of Japan and approached the port of Wonsan. Compared to the dangerous Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, the Sea of Japan was simply a footbath for the Japanese, who were extremely familiar with the hydrological environment, and an artillery formation of ten warships took advantage of the night to approach the port of Wonsan.

Just when most of the Feng troops were still asleep, the Japanese fleet suddenly launched a fierce artillery bombardment, and the combined fleet was worthy of being the most powerful navy in Asia in this era, and its quality was indeed superior.

Shells fell into the city, the terrifying power of the naval guns was revealed, the buildings collapsed in pieces, and the flames quickly burst into flames, engulfing the city.

Qin Wei, who was still asleep, was suddenly awakened, he also knew that the situation was not good, and his staff officers also quickly reported the situation and asked for instructions.

Qin Wei's face sank like water, gritted his teeth and said, "Order the brothers to withdraw from Yuanshan and go to a safe area to stand by first." ”

When the Northern Front Army was assaulting, the speed was amazingly fast, almost creating a miracle except for the battlefield, but for the sake of speed, they also sacrificed a lot, especially the heavy firepower did not keep up, and it was late at night, and the air force could not be dispatched, Qin Wei could only reluctantly choose to avoid the edge temporarily.

However, it is worth pointing out that due to his early years in the rivers and lakes, Qin Wei knew very well that he had to be vigilant enough at all times, so when he was stationed in Yuanshan, all the military camps were selected in hidden locations, and there were strict lighting controls, which looked like a dark patch.

As for the North Korean residences, there were still some lights, so during the shelling, a large number of shells fell in the center of the city, killing many North Koreans in the city, on the contrary, the losses of the Bong army were limited.

But once counted, there were more than 200 dead and wounded, and what was even worse was that a shell fell into the garage, and thirty jeeps were blown up, which was distressing Qin Wei, who was able to quickly achieve a breakthrough, all relying on these simple and fierce vehicles, although they were not used for a long time, but the Feng army had completely liked the jeep, and many soldiers simply slept with the vehicles, for fear that something would go wrong.

The Japanese blew up thirty cars at once, and many valuable drivers were sacrificed, which simply made Qin Wei crazy. However, at this time, his mind is still very calm, and what the next step of the troops is what he needs to care about the most.

The situation was sent to Zhang Tinglan, and he also felt bad: "If the combined fleet can attack Wonsan, it means that all the cities along the coast of the Sea of Japan are not safe, and the Japanese can attack the railway line at any time, so that the Northern Front Army will lose its logistical support." ”

Jiang Baili nodded and said: "Indeed, the assault was too fast, and the sequelae also came out, so that the three major army corps would join Jihua in Seoul was no longer possible, so Qin Wei led the army south to Pyongyang immediately." The current task is to capture Pyongyang, form a situation of confrontation between the north and the south with the Japanese, and after stabilizing the rear, then try to forge ahead! Zhang Tinglan agreed to Jiang Baili's suggestion without hesitation, but he said: "The combined fleet is our henchman, and the Sea of Japan can't pass our submarines, so let the Air Force be ready, and we must bite off a piece of meat from the Japanese!" ”

When he arrived on the battlefield, Zhang Tinglan was also a character who would be retributive, and he wanted to take advantage of his own hands, but there was no door! Moreover, if the combined fleet is allowed to gain momentum and bombard everywhere unscrupulously, won't the coastal areas suffer, and Zhang Tinglan is not willing to bear this consequence.

The command also immediately gave Feng Yong an order, asking him to mobilize the air and make a plan for the attack. Just as the Fengtian army was rapidly deploying troops, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Mukden also received a strongly worded protest letter.

It turned out that Chen Shaokuan had sunk a 10,000-ton cargo ship Heath, which was a British, and they used this as a pretext to send a strong protest to the Feng army, demanding that the Feng army severely punish the perpetrators and compensate the British.

Because of the involvement in international disputes, Gu Weijun did not dare to make assertions, and hurriedly reported to Zhang Tinglan, who also frowned after receiving the report.

"Hmph, at this time and that time, after the Great War, the gold content of the Sun Never Sets Empire is not much, it's just a stinky shelf, if you annoy Lao Tzu, even Britain won't let go!"

Zhang Tinglan said this, but he didn't want to make too many enemies, so he said: "We can make appropriate compensation, but this is only humanitarian compensation, not because we did wrong, the British ships transported supplies to the Japanese, which is already an act of intervening in the war, and they deserve to die!" ”

"To put it mildly, I can't say that, I don't think this protest is so simple." Yang Yuting said worriedly on the side: "The British are the best at playing offshore balance, could this be their means?" (To be continued......)
