Chapter 148 Attack on Yangcun

At this time, Alekseev didn't feel any embarrassment. After all, even the German fleet was defeated by this group of overseas Chinese, and it was defeated very badly. In comparison, the failure of the Russian army was nothing! Therefore, Alekseev had no scruples and told the detailed process of this battle to the commanders of various countries.

After listening to Alekseev's speech, the commanders of various countries were also in deep thought. Judging from Alekseev's speech just now, the result of the artillery battle between the two sides actually determined the outcome of the war. The Russian artillery position was knocked down by the other side, which was doomed to the Russian army's defeat. The desperate attack behind it was completely unnecessary. As for the powerful firepower of the crossing army and various automatic weapons, no one paid much attention to it, because Alekseev was commanding behind and did not fight on the front line. Therefore, he did not have much intuitive understanding of the various automatic weapons of the crossing army, and it was impossible to convey it to the commanders of various countries.

However, the arrangement of the artillery formation of the Russian commander Linevic is not wrong. Dividing the artillery into two positions can indeed reduce the risk of artillery, but the Russian artillery position was still destroyed in the early stages of the battle. The key is how this group of overseas Chinese accurately found the position of the Russian artillery position and carried out a certain clearance, and later it was very accurate to find the position of the Russian command. This shows that this group of overseas Chinese have strong battlefield reconnaissance capabilities and a very accurate artillery fire control system.

Although it is not certain how strong the combat effectiveness of overseas Chinese troops is, if you master these two abilities, this army will never be easy to deal with, because behind these two abilities, it represents the scientific and technological capabilities of a country. This also shows that the scientific and technological level of this group of overseas Chinese is by no means below the rest of the country. Even if the scientific and technological capabilities of both sides are at the same level, then this group of overseas Chinese is obviously an extraordinary opponent.

At the end of the discussion, the commanders of various countries returned to an old question: where did this group of overseas Chinese come from?

Almost all of the Eight-Nation Alliance are maritime powers. Even a typical mainland country like Germany is actively developing an ocean navy. But no one has ever heard of it. On an island in the world, there is a country established by Chinese. However, based on the various events that occurred after the emergence of this group of overseas Chinese over the past month, this group of people is indeed Chinese. However, as a country that can develop such scientific and technological capabilities, the population must be several million, and even an island country must have an area of ​​tens of thousands of square kilometers, otherwise it will be difficult to obtain enough development momentum. Moreover, it is impossible not to communicate with the outside world during the development process. How could there be no news before?

Of course, this is destined to be a topic without answers, so the commanders of various countries discussed for a while and they were not sure about it. However, this mystery cannot be untied by the generals, so they went back to their camps to rest.

At this time, the Eight-Nation Alliance did not dare to underestimate the overseas Chinese army anymore. Not only did they leave enough vigils and patrol soldiers, but they also set up a large number of secret sentries on the outside of Yangcun. There were more than a dozen electric lights on the position, which were powered by several generators carried by the army. Although it could not light up the entire position as bright as daytime, it could also illuminate the distance of nearly a hundred meters around. It would definitely be impossible to approach the Yangcun position in the dark and launch a sudden attack. In addition, Yangcun itself has built more effective and complete fortifications, so even if the overseas Chinese army launched a night attack, the Eight-Nation Alliance could find out at the extreme and immediately launch defense.

The time was not long, and the entire camp was silent. Most of the soldiers had dreams. There were bursts of sounds coming from each camp and tent. On the position, under the light of the lights, the soldiers who were guarding the night walked back and forth, while the soldiers looking up at the tower looked up from time to time, counting the stars to pass the boring time.

Today is a beautiful night sky, with the moon shining and the clouds fading, and the stars are everywhere. If it weren't for the battle, it would be a very beautiful night. The soldiers of the Eight-Nation Alliance were watching the night while missing their relatives in their hometown. Many of them have been away from home for half a year. In a foreign country, it was quiet late at night, and their longing for their relatives is even stronger.

I don't know how long it took, but a soldier on the watchtower suddenly discovered that a star with a long tail appeared in the sky, passing through the bright night, so he pushed two napping companions and said, "Tom, Hans, look, meteors, there are meteors."

After hearing this, the two companions looked up at the sky and found a meteor, but after a while, the soldier who called Tom pointed to the night sky and said, "Jack, Hans, look, there is still a meteor... Oh, there is still a meteor here... Why are there so many meteors tonight?"

At this time, Hans said: "Do you think these meteors are falling in our direction?"

After hearing this, Jack also looked carefully. Sure enough, he found that the meteor seemed to be much bigger than before, and it was indeed falling in his direction, and said, "Yes! Why did the meteor look at us...ah...no... this is not a meteor, what is this?"

It turned out that these meteors were getting bigger and bigger and more obvious. It was clear that the meteor was long and orange flames were sprayed from its tail.

"Ah...they fell down, they really fell down, run away..."

Amid the screams of these soldiers, these meteors fell into the Eight-Nation Alliance Camp in Yangcun in turn. Only a few loud explosions of "boom boom boom boom boom" sounded in the camp, and immediately shot out dazzling fire, which of course also took away the lives of countless soldiers.

What the soldiers just now saw was of course not a meteor, but the Haihongqi 16 missile launched from the warships passing through the army.

It turned out that on the afternoon of the same day, the Travel Group learned from telegrams sent by various countries to consulates in Tianjin that the Eight-Nation Alliance had known the news of the failure of the German fleet, so it also changed its combat plan and had to retreat back to Beijing to defend immediately.

The Provisional Military Commission immediately held an emergency meeting, believing that it would be quite unfavorable to the Time Travel Group if the Eight-Nation Alliance returned to Beijing. Although the army severely damaged the Russian army during the daytime battle, the losses were not large compared to the Eight-Nation Alliance. Now the total strength of the Eight-Nation Alliance is still more than 20,000, which is still a no threat to the Time Travel Group.

Because the next step of the Time Travel Group is to advance Shandong and establish its own base, but there are more than 20,000 Eight-Nation Alliances in Beijing. The Time Travel Group must retain enough troops in Tianjin to prevent the attack of the Eight-Nation Alliance. This has caused great difficulties for the Time Travel Group, which is already insufficient in troops. Therefore, it is best to take this opportunity to severely damage the Eight-Nation Alliance and make the Eight-Nation Alliance no longer able to launch an attack on Tianjin. In this way, the Time Travel Group can enter the Shandong region without any worries. In this way, the Eight-Nation Alliance must not escape back to Beijing safely, and must launch an attack on Yangcun at night.

However, Yangcun has very complete fortifications, and the Russian army's failure must have reminded the Eight-Nation Alliance that Yangcun's defense will inevitably be strengthened. Even if it is a night battle that the time travel army is best at, it may not be able to win easily, and it is very likely to suffer major casualties. However, the current time travel group cannot afford to be injured.

So the temporary military committee decided to fight together this time, with naval warships firing missiles at Yangcun to disrupt the defensive arrangements of the Eight-Nation Alliance. Then the Army took the opportunity to attack Yangcun, striving to defeat the Eight-Nation Alliance in one fell swoop and dealing them with heavy damage. The time for the attack was set at 2 am at night to let the army rest.

As for the missiles that hit Yangcun this time, the Navy recommended the use of Haihongqi 16 air defense missiles. Among the missiles carried by the crossing fleet this time, only the Kunming ship was equipped with 8 East China Sea 10 cruise missiles, which were specially used for land attacks, and the rest were air defense missiles or anti-ship missiles.

Of course, whether it is an air defense missile or an anti-ship missile, it can also be used to strike ground targets. As long as there are clear coordinates, it is enough. Just use an air defense missile. Anti-ship missile can only be used to strike fixed targets on the ground and it is difficult to strike mobile targets. But this is enough. Moreover, there is no anti-missile technology in this era, so there is no need to worry about being disturbed.

However, it is really a waste to use other missiles such as Haihongqi 9 air defense missile, Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missile, Eagle Strike 18 anti-ship missile, and East China Sea 10 cruise missile to attack Yangcun. After all, the number of these missiles is limited and will be used in naval combat in the future. Therefore, the Navy believes that using Haihongqi 16 air defense missile is the most suitable.

The Haihongqi 16 air defense missile is the most equipped in the fleet. The Kunming ship, Yueyang ship, and Sanya ship each carried a total of 96. In the previous battle, a total of 4 were used. However, compared with other air defense missiles and anti-ship missiles, the Haihongqi 16 air defense missile is a medium-range air defense missile with only 65 kilograms of warheads and about 0-40 kilograms of warheads. The warheads of the Haihongqi 9 air defense missiles and the Eagle Strike 8 anti-ship missiles are all around 00 kilograms, and the filling amount is more than 80 kilograms. The Eagle Strike 18 anti-ship missiles are not even more than 400 kilograms of warheads and the filling amount exceeds 00 kilograms. After all, in the old time and space, the Haihongqi 16 air defense missiles were used for air defense, so there is no need to pursue great lethality.
