At about ten o'clock the next morning, the temporary command of the landing force located in Hejiawan Village received a report from the reconnaissance personnel and found that the Eight-Nation Alliance troops from Dagukou were about 800 to 1,000 people, and a certain number of cavalry and a small number of artillery were heading towards Hejiawan Village. It is expected that at around 12 noon, it can reach Hejiawan Village. The reconnaissance personnel will continue to closely monitor the enemy's movements and further investigate the number of enemy troops and weapons.

Although we had long expected that the enemy troops stationed in Dagukou would attack Hejiawan Village, the enemy came so quickly was somewhat beyond the expectations of the temporary command, because it was twenty-five or six kilometers away from Dagukou at this time. In this era, this distance was not close. In addition, the Russian army had just been defeated yesterday, so the temporary command believed that the enemy troops in Dagukou would probably reach Hejiawan Village tomorrow.

Early in the morning, Qiu Yahui led the company and the platoon leaders to the ground for setting up the position as Luo Yue suggested. Everyone had no objection to the ground, but there were not many terrain available on the position, and it still needed to dig trenches and build some artificial fortifications. Although the project volume was not large, it would definitely not be completed before the expected enemy troops arrived.

So Qiu Yahui immediately invited an extraordinary meeting to discuss countermeasures.

After a brief discussion, the command center made several resolutions. First, it was to report to the command immediately so that the command could grasp the enemy's movements at all times. Second, it was to immediately mobilize villagers urgently to help the soldiers dig trenches, build fortifications, and speed up the construction progress; Third, it was to dispatch unmanned helicopters to closely monitor the enemy's movements and progress, to clarify the number of enemy troops and weapons as soon as possible, and to send a team to attack, harass the coalition along the way, delay the enemy's progress, and to try its best to gain time for the troops. When necessary, it could also dispatch the 9c to carry out air strikes on the coalition.

Finally, it was Luo Yue who proposed that according to Luo Yue's idea, there are four combat platoons in the landing force, each with a sniper, with a sniper range of about 800 meters, and there are three Type 89 heavy machine guns, with a range of more than 1,500 meters. In addition, there are two warrior vehicles as mobile platforms, and guided and cooperated with unmanned helicopters in the air.

A warrior car, including the driver, can carry eight people. Both snipers and machine gunners need to be equipped with a deputy. Therefore, a warrior car can carry two sniper groups and one machine gun group, and a commander can also be added. The ammunition of the machine gun can be carried with the vehicle. In this way, the snipers and machine gunners can cooperate with each other to attack the enemy at a long distance and can move maneuverably at extreme times. Although it cannot completely block the enemy's advance, it is not difficult to delay the enemy's speed.

Everyone agreed with Luo Yue's suggestion, while Qiu Yahui decided on the spot that Luo Yue would be responsible for organizing the delay of the enemy's mission. Because among the current landing troops, only Luo Yue's row has practical experience. Not only did they fight with terrorists in the Middle East, but they also fought a solid battle with the Russian army yesterday. To perform such a task, practical experience is very important.

The other three combat platoons only sent one sniper team to participate in the battle, and the machine gun platoon also sent two machine gun teams. On the Mengshi car, there are weapons rotors that can be installed with heavy machinery and grenade launchers. The Type 89 heavy machine gun can be set up in the car to shoot. Luo Yue's first platoon was not all involved in the battle. In addition to sending the sniper team of his platoon, Luo Yue himself and the first squad leader Liu Tie serve as the commander of the two teams.

However, there is only one warrior car in the village, and another warrior car is carrying out a mission to monitor the movements of the Eight-Nation Alliance. Therefore, Luo Yue first led a team to set off in a car, and the z5b unmanned reconnaissance helicopter was also set off at the same time. At the same time, he called back another warrior car and replaced it with another team to perform the same mission.

It turned out that more than a dozen Russian soldiers who escaped from Hejiawan Village rushed back to Dagukou at dusk that day, and immediately, like Captain of the Russian ship Sissoi, Colonel Volkov, reported the attack.

After hearing the report of the Russian soldiers who fled back, Colonel Volkov was very annoyed. Moreover, the Russian soldiers who fled back didn't know who the enemy was. The only thing that the enemy's clothing and weapons did not seem to be like the Qing army, and of course they were not like the army of other countries. Even how many enemy soldiers were, there were dozens of Russian soldiers and hundreds of Russian soldiers. Volkov was so angry that he vomited blood.

The Tsarist Russian Empire has not had a long history, only more than 600 years. Although it has always given people the impression of being unreasonable and expanding, it is not that it has not been defeated in the process of expansion, and of course it is not that it cannot accept defeat. It is only because of the Slavs' bravery and warlike determination that they have won the title of "combat nation". However, the defeat was not so confused that they did not even know who the enemy was and how many troops they had.

What made Volkov even more annoyed was that the Russian soldiers who fled back either made excuses for failure or were frightened to speak nonsense. Some Russian soldiers were hit and even used rifles used by Russian enemies, which could shoot continuously like Maxim machine guns, which was very terrifying. However, how could a sensible soldier like Colonel Volkov believe such a clumsy lie?

Although Maxim machine guns have been popularized in the armies of various countries in this era, the large weight, complex structure, and large shooting recoil of Maxim machine guns are not comparable to those of the bolt-pull rifles of this era. Light machine guns that can be operated by a single person will not be manufactured until ten years later. Therefore, the so-called rifle that can be shot continuously like a machine gun can only coax outspoken laymen who do not understand military affairs. Colonel Volkov naturally would not believe it, and would only feel that Russian soldiers would not even find excuses for failure. It is really useless.

However, no matter how angry it is, Colonel Volkov is still a qualified soldier. From the perspective of the Russian army who fled back, he can still infer some true images. There are probably two possibilities: one is that in the village near Dagukou, there is a Qing army remaining, with a number of not too few, about four or five hundred, and there are probably a few Maxim machine guns. This speculation is basically close to the facts, except for the number of people. This is mainly because Colonel Volkov stubbornly believed that a Russian soldier was at least equivalent to five Qing soldiers, so he could defeat more than eighty Russian soldiers, so it should naturally be about four or five hundred.

Another possibility is to encounter a plot from friendly forces. Although the probability of this possibility is extremely high, it is not impossible. Because although the Eight-Nation Alliance is called a coalition, it does not have the reality of a coalition. The countries are intrigue and have their own ulterior motives and are prepared for each other. What's even more amazing is that the German commander of the coalition, the German, Wadesi, is still on his way to China. In fact, the coalition forces do not have a unified command. All actions are negotiated by the generals of several major powers to fight Feng. In the battle to attack Tianjin and capture Beijing, some countries have not followed the orders and fought on their own. It led to the upper level of the coalition forces' consultations repeatedly and repeatedly emphasized the unity of the coalition forces' operations.

In fact, if the Qing government had not been too incompetent and the combat effectiveness of the Qing army was too poor, it would have been impossible for such an army with only 30,000 to 40,000 people and each had their own worries to land at Dagukou, and drove straight in and entered Beijing in less than a month.

Among the coalition forces, Russia has the greatest conflict between Britain, the United States and Japan. Therefore, if someone wants to make a secret and cheat Russia, it will be acceptable.

This time, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, Russia had to be the greatest ambitions. It has always been Russia's usual goal to establish a yellow Russia in the Far East, including the new stronghold in northern China, Mongolia, the three eastern provinces and other places, and finally merged into Russia.

The Boxer Movement that took place in China in 1900 made Russia think that the time had come. So in addition to sending troops to join the Eight-Nation Alliance and acting with other powerful forces, Tsar Nicholas II served as the commander-in-chief and mobilized troops from 12 military regions in China, gathered nearly 180,000 troops, divided troops into six groups to invade northeast China, and officially implemented the Yellow Russia plan.

However, Russia's Yellow Russia plan caused great uneasiness among other powers, because once the Yellow Russia plan succeeded, it means that Russia will annex China's entire northern territory, and Russia's power in China will far exceed other countries. Moreover, with the polar bear's usual expansion ambitions and desire for land, after annexing northern China, it will never stop, but will inevitably expand southward again and then monopolize the entire China. This not only harms the interests of Britain and the United States, which currently have great power in China, but also after the annexation of China, Russia will be a behemoth spanning two continents and an area of ​​more than 30 million square kilometers, which will inevitably change the world's pattern. Therefore, Britain and the United States naturally have to try their best to stop Russia.

But now the United States can only be regarded as a latecomer among the great powers. Although two years ago, the United States defeated the weakened Spaniards, seized the Philippines, and gained a foothold in Asia, the United States is not strong in Asia, and the country's army is less than 100,000. In addition, the domestic Monroeism and isolationist ideas are prevalent, so it is impossible to take the initiative to fight against Russia head-on.

Although Britain claimed to be the Empire of Sun-Down and had repeatedly curbed Russia's expansion in Europe and the Middle East, at this time, in terms of economy, Britain was surpassed by the United States and caught up with Germany in industry. Now it is a time when the landlords have no surplus food. Therefore, in the face of Russia's aggressive momentum in China, the Empire of Sun-Down and the Empire was a little overwhelmed and urgently needed someone to help. So both countries fell in love with Japan.
