Chapter 18 The Uninvited Guest
The man next to him disagrees with his point of view and whispered: "I think such an enemy can be considered quite tenacious, and our army will not be able to deal with it easily, right?"
As soon as he heard his opinion was refuted, the man seemed furious and said repeatedly: "Ai Shui Jun, it is naturally no problem for our imperial soldiers to eliminate such little ants..."
The veteran spy Aimizu Saburo ignored it and observed the fighting movements of both sides. The facts of the fighting between the two sides did not have a moment. He forced himself to use engineers and weapons to expand some simple single bunkers into simple fortifications. The two sides were in fierce fire, and they did not even dare to show their heads until the two sides sent representatives holding white flags to contact him. He thought to himself: "Even if it is an imperial soldier, it will be very hard to deal with such an enemy, right?"
But the man around him kept saying: "My imperial soldiers will fight to the last moment. If our arms are broken, use our teeth. If we have stopped breathing and fight with our souls, I will never lack fighting spirit..."
For the young and strong sects who graduated from Liefeng Army University, Ai Mizusaburo had no choice but to do anything. He said: "Master Qianwang, I understand what you mean..."
But as he spoke, Aimizu Saburo also began to fall into this madness: "Our imperial soldiers will definitely take Kukunoki as an example and serve the country for seven lives..."
On the contrary, Major Qianwang, who was so enthusiastic about serving the country, calmed down and said, "I think we should complete the Li Liu battle history needed by the General Staff Headquarters first!"
While Aimizu Saburo was writing the details of the battle between the two sides in his notebook, he said to the extremely angry Grandmaster Shenwang: "Of course!"
This Shenwang Qiandu Master is not an ordinary person. He was born in a poor family. He first graduated from the Liefeng Non-commissioned Officer School. Later, during the battle on the Silla border, Lieutenant Shenwang Qiandu was famous for his reputation as the "Ghost Squadron Captain". The entire squadron carried forward the spirit of death attacks and attacked the strong positions of the Chinese army with bayonets in the rain of bullets. All members of one of the teams died in battle. A warrior like the three warriors of the meat bullets emerged. Afterwards, he was an outstanding graduate of the University of Lu. According to his own statement: "If it weren't for the same period as His Highness the Prince, I think the first place in that period would definitely be me."
What's more, Master Shendu is handsome and extraordinary. He is a firm young and strong faction in the Liefeng Army. The so-called Silla garrison Army's northward wing was just expelled to Beichina for unknown reasons, and he and Saburo Aisu were taking action to observe the Chinese army.
But they didn't notice that their words and deeds fell into the eyes of those who were interested. Just a few dozen meters behind them, a tall strong man was lying on his verge of a bear. He looked very dull.
Although this person is thick and strong, and although he is blonde and blue-eyed, he looks very inconspicuous. His actions are as flexible as an old fox, and there is no need to extract notes. All the information has been engraved in his mind. His eyes that are more tax-profit than the eagle mean that this person is with Ai Mizusakuro. However, the fame of the "fox bear" is much smaller than that of Ai Mizusakuro. However, only the highest-level intelligence agency in Tieler knows how much most valuable information this person has provided.
The spies are all unknown, and Merlinberkov firmly believes in this code, and today he has gained more information than the Fierce Wind can collect. Tiel's fox bear is always the most cunning old fox, not a big stupid bear.
Today, in addition to this fox bear, there are many people observing every move on the battlefield near the battlefield. Of course, they are not all spies, or most of their people are journalists. He also needs to write his feelings on his notebook, "Su Hanqiu's assault", "The gate of hell has been opened", "The two sides have fought fiercely", and the reporters often have different opinions. This person thinks that Liu Jingxiao has the upper hand, and that person thinks that the Hubei army has taken advantage of it, and everyone argues that it is the one who keeps arguing, but there is one thing that everyone agrees with. This battle is bloody and long-lasting.
The scene of freedom but no democracy since the Republic has led to rapid development of the news and publishing industry, and competition in the newspaper industry has triggered high-quality reports. The reporters of the Battle of Guide wrote a lot of wonderful reports. Although their reports are very different from the facts, they have focused the whole country on Guide.
Liu Jingxiao saw one of them. At this time, the 17th Division began to give up the battle on the front line and retreated to the second defense zone. Although the Hubei army was determined to pursue, the two sides were still in the period of the armistice. In order to abide by the armistice agreement, the Hubei army did not pursue, but instead accommodated the wounded on the spot to build fortifications.
The 17th Division was quite orderly. The first thing they evacuated was the wounded and the heavy artillery of Mengding Kingdom, followed by the infantry. In the end, a small number of cavalry and infantry were responsible for cutting off the rear. During the retreat, Liu Jingxiao ordered Hu Bo to retreat first and decided to transfer the regiment to the rear for replenishment. Unexpectedly, the acting regiment commander waved the regiment flag and shouted loudly: "Follow our regiment, please send other troops to replenishment..."
Good troops are all fighting! Today, the Hu regiment was defeated first and then won, and his morale was so high that it was extremely high. In this case, Liu Jingxiao ordered the Hu regiment to withdraw from the battlefield in the end. This was originally a hard work, but this invisibly attracted competition from various teams. Especially the warlike Wu Canglei's eyes looking at his friendly troops were even more ignited. Lu Da comforted him: "We will sell more strength tomorrow!"
When he was retreating, a conflict occurred in front of him, and some reporters came out from somewhere shouting: "I want to interview Commander Liu Jingxiao!"
Ding Ning shouted loudly about the reporter's colds: "It's the war now! Please respect yourself!"
“I have the freedom to interview!”
"I am responsible for protecting the personal safety of the division commander!"
“I will protect my news source!”
The conflict between the two sides burst out with sparks. Liu Jingxiao looked at it and couldn't help but feel happy. The reporter didn't look like a gentleman, but a homeless man, with a big beard, and a bit gangster in dress. He couldn't help but say, "Okay! This is what you said!"
In this way, Liu Jingxiao accepted an exclusive interview on the battlefield for the first time in her life, and this wartime reporter who traveled through the two armies was named because of this.
But for Liu Jingxiao, this is just a small episode. You have to eat and fight. After retreating to the second line fortification, in view of today's lessons, Liu Jingxiao specially built a simple infantry defense obstacle in the trenches.
Even if the hardest-working person is a yellow sheep, after crying enough, Section Chief Xiong pointed his revolver at him and shouted loudly: "If you should do it, do it!"
So the yellow sheep trembled and raised a loud horn, drilled to the periphery of the Hubei army's position and loudly promoted: "Brothers of the Hubei army... don't fight again, what's the point of fighting?"
He seemed to be born to do this, and he was still very trembling at first, but later he was chanting: "So many commanders have died, and the regiment commander has died in battle, but he only got such a small position, and half of them were the ones we gave up on our own initiative... Is this kind of battle interesting?"
Taiwan.
Xiao Diji's face looked very serious. Hua Yueying on the side wanted to speak, but she never dared to speak. It took a long time for Xiao Diji to say two words: "Guide..."
Hua Yueying asked at this time: "Ms. Chen hopes we don't interfere with Jiangbei's internal affairs, but our goods are loaded on the ship. If they are not shipped over, they will lose a lot of money..."
The four fleets that supplied Liu Jingxiao were forced to return to Taiwan one after another. Liu Jingxiao did not receive any supplies for one shot and one ammunition. At present, Liu Jingxiao rushed to build arms while trying his best to ask Xiao Diji to take action. He made an unprecedented large order and paid a huge deposit first. As soon as the goods arrived, he paid the full amount immediately.
But Xiao Diji didn't expect that the young lady in Shanghai would react so fiercely. If both sides had not maintained a little restraint, the fleets of both sides would have started a war at sea.
For the Shen family at sea, they never wanted to have too strong forces rise within their sphere of influence, and they suppressed Liu Jingxiao in every way. But no one had the courage to uncover the cannon suit, and the consequences were too serious. The second and third two fleets were always the best in the country. Once the war started, they would definitely be a barren land, and the losses of both sides were more than tens of millions. So when Xiao Diji thought of this link, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it... I returned the deposit... I apologized to others..."
Liu Jingxiao had just accepted a ten-minute interview with the reporter and was in a pretty good mood. When he received this bad news, he was simply crazy with the telegram and said repeatedly: "It's too unrighteous...it's too unrighteous..."
Guo Junqing said from the side: "I'm afraid your fiancée will have more credit..."
Liu Jingxiao could only smile bitterly and said, "Hurry up and ask Xianqiao to invest in the work and speed up production! What's so bad is that we can't produce many shells..."
The key to Liu Jingxiao's trip to Henan this time is that he has a considerable advantage in equipment. On this day, although the Hubei army has a large number of troops and strong morale, the attack style is relatively dull. However, after the ammunition is finished in this battle, how can we deal with Wang Ziqi next? The equipment is too poor and there are not many bullets. Even if the army is neat, it is useless.
You should know that Liu Jingxiao's armed units are all newly built, with low output and high cost. According to the current firepower level of the 17th Division, the ammunition they produce in one month is only enough for two or three days to fight.
But then I got another good news. Li Dingyuan didn't know where to get the news and was willing to sell a batch of arms to Liu Jingxiao. Liu Jingxiao was ecstatic. Then he felt that Li Dingyuan might not have any kindness. He immediately turned to Guo Junqing and said, "I'll inform you, don't Gu Xi, if you have any big or small shells, you'll shoot them all... If you think they're too bulky, you'll blow up the cannons!"
Guo Junqing didn't have this courage. She said, "What are we doing? We have worked hard to accumulate it. How can this be done!"
Liu Jingxiao was also disregarded. He said, "If you lose this battle, you will have nothing to do. Why do you care about this cannon? By the way, are our logistics team and new recruits coming up?"
