Zhang Xuan smiled and drank a glass of wine, "It's not Guan Gong who killed Huaxiong, don't worry, Shizao."
If you don't succeed, you will succeed. ”Xuan Jianzhang didn't know why, this time he had a little bad premonition, it was really the combat command level shown by the Japanese was too high.The Chinese army has the habit of forming an officer corps, which is generally an officer corps at the regimental level, that is, officers at the level of deputy platoon commanders of each platoon.Zhang Xuan, with more than a hundred people, actually broke through two lines of defense in a row and hit directly outside the north gate of Yucheng.At this time, more than 8,000 defenders in the city under the command of Youpeng in Shan County were retreating halfway, and they heard that some troops of the Chinese army rushed to the north gate.After the Meiji Restoration, he went to Europe to inspect the military.After returning to Japan, he successively served as the Junior Assistant, the Daisuke, the Army Chief, the Secretary of the Army, the Chief of the Army, the Chief of Staff, the Minister of the Interior, and the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce.until he became the most powerful person in the military world.He has long been committed to the construction and transformation of the modern Japanese army.In 1878, he issued a letter of admonition to military personnel, emphasizing the old virtues of bravery, loyalty, and obedience to the emperor, and opposing democratic and liberal tendencies.He was the advocate and formulator of the conscription order, and he presided over the transformation of the town into a division and regiment system, the rectification of the army's educational institutions, and the establishment of the military medical department, thus laying the ideological and organizational foundation for the establishment of the modern army.The gradual building of the Japanese army into a modern bourgeois army played an important role.Therefore, he is known as the "father of Japan's modern army".At the same time, he also politically pursued the policy of "strengthening the army and enriching the country" by forming two cabinets, thus further broadening the space for the formation and development of Japanese militarism.His ruling skills are not as sophisticated as Ito's, but he is not mediocre either.He has a calm and somewhat neurotic temperament, and he is cautious and decisive.No matter what, once you make up your mind, you will do it to the end.Hearing that there were friends in Shanxian County asking, the flag-bearers around him hurriedly waved the flag and asked.The sentries on the city walls replied with flags."
There are only more than 100 people, and it is a small Chinese army."
Guards report.Youpeng in Shanxian was furious, "The deception is too much, and a small army of more than 100 Chinese troops dares to come to attack the city, come to people, gather 14 regiments, and call me back." ”The Japanese had more than 1,000 people in a regiment, which was ten times the strength of the Chinese army officer corps.The two sides engaged in a rare encounter on the narrow walls of Ujo.The Japanese took advantage of the large number of people and frantically attacked Zhang Xuan's side, Zhang Xuan took more than 100 people from the officer corps, built a row of small fortifications with Japanese corpses on the spot, and hid behind the corpses to shoot.The Japanese katana in front of the 1878 rifle of the president of the Chinese army, was simply an ornament, falling row by row.Youpeng in Shanxian was in a hurry, "Shelling, push two cannons over." ”The Japanese guns were all light mountain guns, two large wheels, and small cannons of less than 200 catties."
It's too late, the cannons have already been pulled out of the city."
A general next to him reminded.There are friends in Shanxian who are sweating profusely, knowing that at this time of the Chinese army, the large army will be pulled up at any time.In fact, when Zhang Xuan and others climbed to the top of the city, they had already sent the movements of the Japanese garrison to Xuan Jianzhang by radio, and Xuan Jianzhang learned that the Japanese were going to run away and had already ordered the whole line to attack the city.Some friends in Shanxian County hurriedly scolded: "More than 1,000 people, why can't you even beat more than 100 people, tell them that they must take down this small force of the Chinese army." ”Dozens of meters from the head of the city, the two sides are like piles of dead corpses, constantly dead, the Chinese army is too strong, the Japanese rushed over one by one with their necklines open, one by one to die, the Chinese soldiers did not know to be afraid, the veterans who rolled out of the blood and fire were not joking, the Japanese were afraid first, more than 1,000 people, more than 300 people died in less than ten minutes, and they were actually beaten by the Chinese army and ran back.There are friends in Shanxian who roared and screamed, "One more regiment bastard" Didi Di Di Di The first regiment of the first brigade of the first field division of the Chinese army, three battalions launched a full-front attack together and attacked Yucheng.Zhang Xuan saw that the reinforcements had arrived, and shouted overjoyed, "Trumpeter, we also blow the trumpet to kill the little Japan" Didi Dadi City is up and down the city, and there are Chinese army's charge trumpets everywhere "Why did the Chinese army come so fast" Shan County Youpeng was so frightened that he shouted to people to retreat quickly, and in the process of retreating, he was chased by the Chinese army and killed more than 1,000 people, ending the battle of Yucheng with a small victory for the Chinese army and a small defeat for the Japanese.Katsura Taro, Kawakami Caoroku, Kodama Gentaro and other troops outside the city came to meet together, because it was too close to the Japanese stronghold outside the city, Xuan Jianzhang did not order the pursuit, and it was already very good to be able to successfully take Ujo.Moreover, there is another reason, that is, before the retreat, Yamaprefecture Aritomo burned down several granaries where the Japanese were hoarding grain in Ucheng Castle, and the Chinese army rushed to put out the fire.Xuan Jianzhang entered Yucheng, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, crossed his waist, and looked at the antique Japanese houses, but these houses were burning."
Master, the Japanese even burned their own houses, it's really not human."
The chief of staff of the division said indignantly."
A very terrible nation, a nation that does not compromise in order to win, I have never seen anyone treat their people like this, they are even more terrible than the Russians."
Xuan Jianzhang's eyes were full of starlight, not tears, but the light of longing to fight when he met a tough opponent."
It's true, Lao Maozi at least loves the common people more than them, but when we were in Siberia, we met the same people who drove from Europe, and only the local White Russian army loved the local people."
The division chief of staff said with a smile."
Master's seat."
Zhang Xuan came down from the city wall and gave Xuan Jianzhang a standard military salute.Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "It's beautiful." ”"What should be done, when Little Japan meets our Chinese army, it is tofu."
Zhang Xuan smiled."
No, you can't underestimate the enemy."
Xuan Jianzhang's expression turned solemn after being relaxed, "The current situation, after the Japanese retreated, they did not retreat on a large scale, and they still confronted my first regiment near Yucheng.What does this mean, it means that they are waiting until winter and want to start a tug-of-war with us when the Chinese army is out of supplies.""
We have to speed up, since the previous preset plan of taking Kumamoto as the core and guiding the enemy to fight, and the Japanese will not take the bait, we must change the plan and go to them to fight ourselves, fight more with less, fight slow with fast, and change our strategy and tactics."
Xuan Jianzhang said unswervingly, after nearly six years of war, Xuan Jianzhang has grown into a very mature commander."
Yes."
A bunch of Chinese army officers by the city gate saluted a standard military salute at the same time.The Chinese army was actively mobilizing, and the Meiji Emperor was in a hurry, and he personally went to Kyoto, where the Japanese Kyoshi had already been placed in Tokyo, but their information system was still old-fashioned, and the speed at which horses could transmit information could not meet the needs of the war, so they could only temporarily move the Japanese Kyoshi back to Kyoto."
Let the two armies of Yama Prefecture Aritomo and Katsura Taro join forces to find the Chinese army to fight to the death, push and push, and the people will hear the news of the defeat and retreat of our government army, and if this continues, it will chill the people," Emperor Meiji choked up."
Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Prince Chiren of Arisugawa Palace nodded and said, "However, there is a friend in Shan County who reported to me that he means to wait until winter to take advantage of the supply difficulties of the Chinese army, and then fight for every inch of land and the manpower of the Chinese army as consumption." ”"No, this set will not work, Huaguo now has a population of five or six hundred thousand on Kyushu Island, we can consume, they can also consume, and, I heard, they have recently shipped a large number of military supplies and food, the problem of wintering is not big, we want the British and French to see the strength of our Japanese army, the attitude of Britain and France, for us, is very important, this is not only military, but also political" Emperor Meiji, who was full of opium, regained his former fighting spirit and wisdom.Ito Hirobumi also said: "Yes, retreat is not a way, our Japanese territory is small, especially Kyushu Island, which is the main battlefield, is so big in total, it can't catch up with a region of China, and then retreat, don't say that the people can't accept it, and Kyushu Island doesn't have strategic depth for Yama Prefecture to make a fuss." ”Emperor Meiji was overjoyed when he heard that Hirobumi Ito agreed with his opinion, and his eyes lit up and said, "What Hirobumi Ito said is good, go and arrange it." ”Prince Arisugawa Gong Chihito nodded and said, "Okay." ”Yama Prefecture Aritomo, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese front line on the outskirts of Ucheng, received an order from the emperor in his own handwriting, put down the document painfully, and sighed: "The emperor ordered us to fight a decisive battle with the Chinese army, but if it is a frontal fight, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg" Katsura Taro's eyes rolled, "General, it is better for us to change the direction of the attack, the Chinese army now has a regiment in Ujo, it is rumored that Xuan Jianzhang is also in Ujo, we should attack Kurume first, counterattack in reverse, so that the Chinese army can not care about each other, at the same time, It is also possible to cut off the connection between Fukuoka and Saga and Sasebo, so that we can regain the initiative and mobilize the Chinese army. ”Youpeng in Shanxian County walked back and forth a few steps, "What you said, I haven't thought about it, but have you thought about it, if we take the initiative to attack the city and can't take it smoothly, and then be covered up by Xuan Jianzhang from behind, when the time comes, we may fall into the counter-encirclement, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, you should know it" "I think the general is too conservative, the key for us is to play with momentum, don't think about victory or defeat first, the enemy has already hit our land, and we must serve the country if we die." ”Katsura Taro said loudly.The generals were emotionally aroused by Katsura Taro's guidance, and they all bowed down to fight.Yama Prefecture Aritomo nodded, "Since everyone thinks that Katsura Taro's opinion is right, let's do this, the army is ready to move, and I will immediately report to the emperor on the direction of our attack." ”"It's the general."
A group of Japanese generals were overjoyed.As soon as the Japanese army moved, Xuan Jianzhang immediately got the information, the Chinese army has a special reconnaissance unit to follow the Japanese large army, and there is a radio station, which means that every move of the Japanese is under the nose of the Chinese army, especially in the plains, fighting between cities, this is the Chinese army's favorite, because the Chinese army has heavy firearms Xuan Jianzhang is actually most afraid that there are friends in the mountain county to break into zero, scatter tens of thousands of Japanese troops, rely on various mountainous areas, rely on local operations, and have the advantage of the support of the people.
Fighting in circles with the Chinese army, constantly fighting, this is unsolvable, and it is not easy to take down an enemy country's area.At present, the strong fighting mood of the Japanese from top to bottom is in the hands of Xuan Jianzhang."
Shiza, now should we rush out, bite the Japanese by the tail and drag them, and prevent them from attacking Kurume There, we only have a garrison battalion, and we can't resist the tens of thousands of Japanese troops."
The chief of staff of the division reminded.Xuan Jianzhang waved his hand, "Don't worry, what about the tens of thousands of troops, they have no faith, just a simple bushido spirit, too weak, I just want them to concentrate in Kurume, let's have a counter-encirclement." ”A group of staff officers and officers of the 1st Brigade and 1st Regiment of the 1st Field Division of the Chinese Army were all surprised, because Kurume was a small town, which was not suitable for large-scale defense of the city.t1706231537:
