Republic of China: Get the krypton gold system at the beginning!

Zhou Chaowu's current operational deployment can only be implemented after the artillery brigade arrives at the front line, and the main thing is to gain superiority in artillery

With heavy firepower, crush the Japanese defense line, and then seek to cross the river.

In the evening.

Under the command of a rapid march, all the troops finally marched to the front.

All senior officers sit in the War Department.

This also includes Li Chun's department.

After witnessing the achievements of the Protector Army along the way, it can be said that he was convinced, and he was very glad that he joined, otherwise if he really fought with the Protector Army, I am afraid that the Eighth and Ninth Divisions would only melt quickly!

"In the early morning of tomorrow, the

engineers will build fortifications to prevent the enemy's artillery from easily and directly hitting our side! Order the artillery brigade of the 1st Mixed Division and the 1st independent artillery brigade to temporarily integrate, transfer all the artillery, and confront the Japanese army at dawn tomorrow! I want to see if the artillery is very powerful!

After the Japanese fire was repulsed, the main force suppressed the frontal fire, and the newly formed 89th Mixed Division covered the sappers to cast a pontoon bridge so that the armored troops could pass!".

"Yes!".

Zhou Chaowu issued a strategic deployment.

In fact, it's simple, at present, both sides are in the form of open cards, and it is already difficult to gain an advantage through sneak attacks, so you can only do a hard one!

Even so, Zhou Chaowu was still full of confidence, and after removing all external factors, he also believed that the combat power of the Protector Army was much higher than that of the Japanese army!

After receiving the order, the officers began to evacuate.

But Li Chun stayed.

"Wu Shuai!

You promised me that as long as our Eighth and Ninth Divisions complete the tasks you gave Wu Shuai as promised, they will let us join the National Protector Army! But now this pontoon bridge built by covering sappers is not the most obvious place to die, isn't this a bit biased!

Although we joined from outside, we also have the most basic patriotic heart, and we have also shed blood for the attack on Shandong, so please think twice!"

Li Chun was embarrassed and said, he didn't know how to explain this task to his brothers!

And now the whole army is on the Yishui front, and has not been reunited with their families, which is still a threat.

Such a difference really made him a little uncomfortable.

"Nonsense! Soldiers are obedient by nature! Are you bargaining with me here? Where do you think this is? Or is it your style of standing on the top of the mountain, one last chance, to put this idea in front of me again, and directly dismiss the 8th and 9th Brigades!

Why did you let the Eighth and Ninth Divisions hold this most dangerous position? That's because your combat effectiveness and the main force of the National Protector Army are not at the same level at all, and only by experiencing more bloodshed and replenishing the elite can you truly raise an excellent army!"

Zhou Chaowu's decision is half of the selfishness of the descendant troops, and he wants to keep more!

Half of it is true that if Li Chun's army cannot grow rapidly, then the eighth and ninth divisions will not only not be able to become a help for the national protection army, but will be a drag!

"Wu Shuai, I see what you mean...."

Li Chun knew that what he said was also true, he had seen with his own eyes the combat strength of the Protector Army, not only in terms of military superiority, combat quality and will, but also the miscellaneous army under his command could not be compared.

He was persuaded and left in silence.

Not long after he left, the communications corps hurried in again.

The Japanese army sent a telegram warning us to retreat immediately, saying that we had broken our promise, and that we should quickly withdraw to Jiangsu, and offer the agreed rights and interests in railway and economic construction, otherwise the Japanese Empire would take measures to declare war on us tomorrow!

When the time comes, it's going to be a battle between countries, and you can't afford it!"

"Marshal Wu, how do you reply?" the signal soldier's face was full of worry.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Japan is still much stronger, and if it really provokes large-scale disputes, the National Protector Army may not be an opponent.

On the other hand, Zhou Chaowu's face was very relaxed, this was the Japanese army scaring the widow with his big bird.

He was well aware of the situation in Japan, the economy was exhausted, and he needed a period of recuperation, and he didn't want to go to war in a big way.

"According to my reply, the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway I promised them to pick it up by themselves, and from the beginning to the end I said that I would not fight Shandong? No, right? He should understand what it means to do what he says!"

Such humorous words made the communications soldiers laugh.

...

April 24, 1919.

The fortifications of the Protectorate were completed.

A total of more than 700 guns, all of which were pulled to the front line!

Among them, the cheapest mortars and flat-firing guns, all calibers add up to nearly 500 pieces!

There are more than 200 field guns, howitzers, and anti-aircraft guns.

Lin Zikai, commander of the 1st Independent Artillery Brigade, as the commander-in-chief of this operation, personally went to the front line to check the readiness of various units, and did not dare to slack off.

Because the results of the artillery unit this time will directly affect the entire battle situation!

If the artillery could not achieve an overwhelming victory, the situation would have to be stalemate for the time being, and another way to cross the river.

Even if the battle line is extended, the situation of the Protector Army will be dangerous.

For this reason, he made a military order in front of Zhou Chaowu, and he would definitely flatten the Japanese defense line on the other side of the moat!

Eight o'clock in the morning.

After inspecting the artillery situation, Lin Zikai gave the order to open fire!

700 artillery pieces, all with dozens of ammunition, bombarded the other side of the moat!

The Japanese army did not relax this time, although they despised the Protector Army, but it does not mean that they will be lazy in actual action.

On the contrary, the

execution was very strong, and after launching an attack on the other side of the river, the commander of the Japanese front, Kameda Ichiro, quickly organized a counterattack!

However, the artillery pieces of the two infantry divisions combined were only about 200.

Moreover, the artillery used by the Zhou Dynasty's military department was more advanced, and its accuracy and firing frequency were much higher than those of the Japanese army.

The results can be imagined!

The artillery fire covered the defensive line established by the Japanese army along the moat.

A Japanese soldier was bombed only with stumps and broken bones, and black smoke shrouded in black smoke.

Even the Japanese army, which had strict military discipline, had the intention of retreating.

In such a positional battle, they are not the opponent of the Protector Army at all!

"Chief Kameda, the firepower of the Protector Army is too fierce, and if you continue to fight in this formation, I'm afraid the defense line won't last long!"

"Yaga! Why do these people have so many excellent artillery! It must have been funded by that group of damn old Maozi! The order was to retreat to the second line of defense, and when the Protector Army crossed the river, he would order to open fire and block it! A little military superiority is not enough to defeat our Great Japanese Empire!" Kameda Ichiro gave the order to retreat.

In fact, it is

already a very wise choice, and if it is consumed hard, it will only kill and injure too many living forces, but it will lose its follow-up resistance.

Preserving combat effectiveness is always the first priority of the army's strategy!

Operational Command of the Protector Army.

Zhou Chaowu put away the binoculars, the Japanese army was smarter than he thought, and more able to bend and stretch than he thought.

It seems that this vicious battle has just begun!

"Inform me that the newly formed 89th Division and the engineers will go into the water together to cover it, and within half an hour, no matter what the cost is, the two pontoon bridges must be erected!"

"Yes!

Li Chun soon received an order to lead the Eighth and Ninth Divisions to dispatch, and after he returned to the camp yesterday, he also conveyed the scheduled combat mission.

There are not a few people who have the same complaints as him, but in the barracks, there is nothing to do if they are not convinced.

Only by relying on hard work can it be proved that their eighth and ninth divisions are also malleable!

The sun shines outside the moat.

The 8th and 9th Divisions were the first to go down the river, followed by sappers and began to make preparations for the erection of pontoon bridges.

The depth of the moat is about one meter, and the

depth is only one meter three, which is the range that can be passed, but all soldiers need to keep their guns above the water and counterattack the Japanese troops who come to intercept them, which is a test of endurance!

The Protector Army's intention to cross the river was also quickly detected by the Japanese army.

Kameda Ichiro immediately gave the order to intercept it, and stormtroopers kept approaching the shore and strafing the soldiers on the water!

It

is difficult to effectively dodge in the water, although it can carry out a certain counterattack, but in essence, the eighth and ninth divisions are trading their lives for time!

Rows of soldiers fell one after another, but everyone had a touch of determination, a perseverance, and a determination to die!

Once upon a time, they were local warlords, and they fought for no reason, mixed with miscellaneous soldiers.

But now, they died in the battle against the Japanese army, then they are the national heroes of the anti-Japanese resistance!

Minutes and seconds passed.

On the moat, there are I don't know how many corpses are floating.

The entire river is rendered red.

In the headquarters, Li Chun's eyes were blindfolded with tears, and the iron-blooded man was also in tears.

"Rush! Rush for me! Die head-on! Don't let them look down on us from the direct army!"

"Damn it, this life will be handed over to the Japanese devil today! Eighteen years later, Lao Tzu will be a good man again!"

"Alas, I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid that my unattended baby will suffer......

."

“......"

The soldiers of the 8th and 9th Divisions went forward one after another, without the slightest fear of death, and they had long been ready to die!

"Yaga, aren't these people afraid of death at all?Why are their wills stronger than the samurai of the Japanese Empire!" Kameda Ichiro sent a large number of stormtroopers, but still could not stop them, and the pontoon bridge was almost completed, said angrily.

With this posture, they could not stop the Protectors from crossing the river.

Within half an hour, the pontoon bridge was erected on time!

It was bought with the lives of more than 6,000 soldiers!

Combined with the previous losses, the Eighth and Ninth Divisions already had only more than 3,000 people, barely the number of a brigade.

The people who survived were not happy, only had a tragic face!

"Kong Anshun, immediately lead the 1st Armored Division to cross the pontoon bridge and encircle and suppress the Japanese army!

Zhou Chaowu solemnly ordered that Li Chun's troops exchanged blood for his respect!

"It's a military commander!" Kong Anshun immediately informed his troops after receiving the order, "All the chariots and motorcycles will rush into Rizhao City for me, and no Japanese army can let go!

Kong Anshun is also a little angry, although he is a talent from the system, he also has the emotions of a Chinese person!

The 1st Panzer Division, divided into two pontoon bridges, all sorted!

The

infantry army followed closely and sounded the horn of the general attack!

Vows to bring down Rizhao City!

Li Chun looked at the other troops and had some respect for the unit he belonged to, and he didn't know whether he was happy or sad.

Zhou Chaowu patted him on the shoulder, "They are all heroes, they will be remembered by the world, I will call the whole country to pray for their dead!".

"Xie Wushuai!".

With the whole army crossing the moat, the Japanese defense line no longer had the ability to support it and was completely torn apart!

The torrent of steel drove straight in, destroying the infantry along the way.

The Japanese army had no choice but to flee for their lives, and there was no room for resistance.

"Oh my God! Why do there are so many iron monsters in this Protector Army! Isn't this unique to the West? How could it be in the hands of these people! Bullets can't wipe them out at all! Damn!".

In today's era, tanks are far from being widespread, and even a powerful country like Japan has spent a lot of money to buy a few from the West to develop.

Even on the battlefield of World War I, the appearance of dozens of tanks was enough to change the situation of a big battle!

And the tanks of the 1st Panzer Division are about 500 units!

Completely rampage in the formation of the Japanese army!

There were even Japanese soldiers who were run over to death by Vickers tanks at high speed directly from head to toe.

The machine guns on board also ruthlessly plundered the lives of Japanese soldiers!

The 17th and 19th Divisions, which were in charge of the defensive line, had already lost almost 20,000 troops!

And this battle is still expanding!

The follow-up R12 motorcycles simply didn't give them a chance to escape!

Ichiro Kameda reported the situation to Takashi Sakai, who had already withdrawn to Qingdao, and felt ashamed and committed suicide by seppuku with a katana.

Consulate General of Japan in Qingdao.

"Lieutenant General Takashi Sakai, how did you promise me in the first place! Why is it that it has only been less than a day, and Rizhao City is about to fall!

How can you tell me to explain to Prime Minister Hara Kei! How can I explain to Emperor Taisho! I warn you, if Shandong is really occupied by the Protector Army, you and I will wait to commit suicide!"

Ikawahara Ken lost his temper angrily!

"Your Excellency, I don't know why this group of damned Shina people is different from other Shina people, they not only have exquisite tactical coordination, but also have armaments and materials that are several times more luxurious than ours!

The

rout of the former army is also a matter of no choice, and Kameda-kun is even more seppuku to serve the country!

I am afraid that if this continues, it will indeed be difficult for Shandong to hold on! Why don't we ask for reinforcements from the mainland, and advance the strategic plan for invading China!"

Takashi Sakai was a little helpless, and the combat power of the Protector Army somewhat subverted his perception of the Republic of China.

Who is the army cultivated by the great powers?
