After fighting with Fengjun for more than a day, more than 700 Russian soldiers died. If the wounded are included, more than 1000 people have lost their combat effectiveness. What's more terrible is that Fengjun's heavy artillery suddenly fired and destroyed More than two dozen artillery pieces, more than one-third of the combat effectiveness of the Russian artillery was wiped out.

After Constantine got the report, he sat in front of the desk for 3 minutes without saying a word. He was already shocked by the result. Back then, the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked Beijing and marched straight into the land of China, but died in battle. It was only a few dozen people, less than a fraction of what it is now.

Judging from Feng Jun's performance, Constantine couldn't help but think of the Russo-Japanese War. It was a painful experience for the Russians. The majestic Tsarist Russia was defeated by a yellow country and became the laughing stock of the Western world.At this time, another powerful army appeared among the yellow race. Although the Feng army in front of us was still weak, there was still a big difference between the Feng army and the Japanese army.

The Japanese are more crazy, irrational and crazy, relying on piles of lives in exchange for victory, while the Fengjun is very cautious and cunning. Constantine knows very well that the sacrifices paid by the Fengjun today are far less than the Russians , Although this reality is difficult to accept, he also knows that this is an out-and-out reality.

He personally went to the front line to inspect. The miserable appearance of the Russian artillery positions was like the hell in the legend. Once he saw it, he would never forget it.There were broken limbs all over the ground, and fragments of shells were scattered in the soil, many of which were soaked in blood.

Konstantin suddenly felt that something was stepped on under his feet, and when he exerted a little force, the thing shattered, a bit like grape grains, he suddenly lowered his head, and saw that there was an eyeball under his feet.It has been crushed by him, and the transparent liquid inside has already covered his feet.

And less than twenty centimeters in front of the feet, there was a bloody hand claw, which was struggling, and at this moment, this hand left its master forever.Constantine has also been through battles for a long time, but he has rarely seen such a miserable situation, which is almost the same as the European battlefield. He did not expect the firepower of the Feng army to be so powerful, it is simply unimaginable.

Constantine's heart aches at the tragic loss.But there is still a little consolation, that is, the Russian army is not without any results, they have already broken through the first line of defense, and as long as they work harder, they will be able to penetrate Fengjun's defense line.By that time, the damned Feng Jun would be a piece of meat on a chopping board.

Constantine kept telling himself this.Victory will surely belong to Russia.After the army rested for a while, the Russian army launched another onslaught. Ula's shouts sounded again on the field, and the gray animals rushed towards the Feng army.

After retreating to the second line of defense, the Feng army has stronger troops and more sufficient firepower, forming a dense network of long-, medium-, and short-range firepower.Can give the Russian army a fatal blow.In addition, Fengjun has also put a lot of effort into fortifications. Experience on the battlefield has proved that the 76mm mountain cannon can only create a hole more than one meter deep, and even on soft soil, it will not exceed two meters.

The crater of the 120 [-]mm shell is about four or five meters.That is to say, if the Fengjun repaired the anti-blasting holes to a depth of about ten meters and covered them with seven or eight meters of soil, they could completely prevent the Russian army from shelling. Therefore, the Fengjun reinforced all the anti-blasting holes on the second front. .

The large cat ear holes must be ten meters deep, and the small ones must be more than five meters, so that the Russian shells cannot hurt the soldiers of the Feng army.In the middle of the second line of defense, there is a small stone mountain, only 30 meters high. It is said to be a mountain, but it is more like a huge stone.

To arrange fortifications, one must be good at using the natural terrain. This small stone mountain was fully utilized by the Fengjun. From top to bottom, three firepower points were set up, and the Fengjun also used the only bit of cement on this stone mountain. .Since the construction of the North Market, Fengtian's demand for cement has been astonishing. The cement factory has been expanded several times, and its production capacity is still far behind the demand.

After the war, Zhang Tinglan also transferred some cement from Fengtian. However, due to the limited railway capacity, only more than 500 tons were transported. In order to strengthen the stone mountain, more than 200 tons were invested in it at once, and more than a dozen solid concrete structures were built. The reinforced concrete bunker is perfectly integrated with the mountains and rocks, which can greatly improve the survivability.

A lot of trenches and tunnels were dug around the stone to transport ammunition. After some painstaking design, this place was almost built into an impenetrable fortress and became the core hub of the second line of defense.

Soon the Russians came to kill them. They were getting closer and closer to Fengjun's position, and soon entered the range of machine guns. From the top to the bottom of the stone mountain, all the firepower points were suddenly fully opened, and it suddenly became Like a fire hedgehog, every shooting position has been carefully calculated. All the machine guns combined together can form a dense firepower net. There are no dead spots within a few hundred meters around. As long as you dare to rush in, Be prepared to be beaten into a sieve.

This time it was the most elite force from Russia who took the lead this time. They successfully took down Fengjun's first line of defense. It was the time when their confidence was inflated. Iron plate.

In an instant, dozens of people were swept by machine guns, and the others were all lying on the ground, not daring to move. Fengjun not only has machine guns, but also mortars. The latest 82mm mortars of Fengjun have also arrived. At that time, although it was already impossible to hit at a distance of 600 meters, it didn't matter much.

After the artillery basically determined the direction, they continued to shoot out the shells one by one. The mortar is indeed a poor man's weapon. Other shells must use copper, but the mortar only needs to be cast iron. It can be produced in large quantities, and there is no need to worry about using it.

The shells hit the Russians' heads as if they didn't want money. Now the Russians suffered a lot. Under the fierce attack of the Feng army, the casualties were very heavy.Of course, the Russians have gradually learned to be smart. They took the initiative to avoid this huge fortress group, and instead attacked the weak positions on both sides, trying to break through in a roundabout way.

But this is obviously their delusion. Feng Jun has been fully prepared, and a large number of troops have been deployed on both sides to stand ready.Zhang Tingshu was also in the trenches, just like all Feng Jun soldiers.With a water rifle in his hand, he aimed at the Russians who rushed over.

Zhang Tingshu's rifle looks no different from ordinary soldiers, but his barrel and parts are carefully selected. As Zhang Tinglan's brother, he still has this privilege, and Zhang Tingshu himself is very good at marksmanship. The experience on the battlefield made the progress even more astonishing.

Gradually the Russians rushed over, and Zhang Tingshu was also trying to find the most suitable target, and gradually a guy with the appearance of an officer fell into Zhang Tingshu's sight.This guy is very cunning. While running, he kept doing various evasive actions, and couldn't find a chance to aim at all.

Zhang Tingshu wanted to shoot several times, but this guy avoided him in advance.The second young master could only be patient, this guy suddenly rolled behind a rock.Zhang Tingshu immediately felt that the opportunity had come.

He aimed in the direction the guy might rush out.When the figure flashed, he pulled the trigger suddenly, and the head of the Russian soldier was hit by a bullet with a bang, and his brains were scattered everywhere.

After successfully killing a Russian, Zhang Tingshu chose the next target, above the entire front.All Fengjun threw themselves into the battle with forgetfulness.A strong soldier can only be born through continuous sharpening. The Russian army is a good whetstone, and Fengjun soldiers mature quickly.

Not only the rapid improvement of the tactical level, but more importantly, the constant change of mentality.On the battlefield, confidence is often what is compared. In the past, China was trampled under the feet of the great powers, and the country was in decline. From top to bottom, it suffered from "foreign phobia." .

However, in this bloody contest, Fengjun did not lose the slightest advantage. On the contrary, in offense and defense, Fengjun took a lot of advantages, and the great powers were nothing more than that!

The mentality of every Fengjun soldier is quietly changing. This army is more confident and calm. A strong army must have the mentality of winning. Obviously, Fengjun is taking the first step towards becoming a strong army.

Some people are happy about this change in Fengjun, and some people are worried. The Japanese are the most worried. Since Fengjun recovered the Middle East Road, the Japanese have felt a little uneasy. As the saying goes, they have a guilty conscience. It is possible to focus on the South Manchuria Railway.

It is precisely because of this concern that the Japanese also put aside some inherent contempt and began to focus on the changes in the Fengjun, especially after the Fengjun quickly dealt with Horvath's subordinates, the Japanese also felt that they had to re-evaluate Feng Jun's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.

Fengtian Consul General Akajiri is helping to use all his strength to gather all kinds of information together, analyze and study carefully, he wants to find out the mystery of Fengjun's strength, and as the collected information becomes more and more abundant, Akajiri Masasuke feels that he never A chill gushed out from the back of his neck. In the past two years, Feng Jun has quietly become stronger.

The sphere of influence has expanded from one province to three provinces, the army has changed from one division to five divisions, and Fengjun's progress is still in an all-round way.Business developed rapidly, finance became basically independent, and many factories appeared, and the government's fiscal revenue continued to increase.

According to the current data, Fengjun is at least ten times stronger than before, especially the Japanese are puzzled by the source of the Fengjun's arms. In fact, during World War I, the most purchased by the Chinese army was Japanese arms. The Type [-] rifles eliminated by the Japanese are continuously exported to China.

However, the Fengjun was not equipped with Japanese-style ordnance. Instead, it prepared a large number of Russian-style munitions. The source of these arms is worth thinking about. Whether they were given by the Russians on their own initiative, or Fengjun used some means to obtain them. clear.

There is another thing that makes Akajiri Zhengsuke restless, that is, a large number of factories have appeared in the three eastern provinces, all of which are heavy industries, including steel factories and power plants, and Fengjun's arsenal is also constantly expanding, one in Fengtian, one in Jilin The Japanese don't quite know how much output an arsenal, especially in Jilin, can produce and what it can produce.

Putting all these information together, Akajiri Masasuke discovered a fact that horrified him. Under the eyes of the Japanese, the two legs of the military and economics of the Feng family have already established a certain foundation. As long as time passes, they will definitely grow stronger. .Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer, and hastily wrote a report to Tokyo, requesting to strengthen the intelligence penetration of Fengjun to make up for the negligence for a period of time.

In addition, Akajiri Masasuke believes that it is necessary to take practical actions to curb the development of the Fengjun. When I arrived at Shuai's mansion, I found Lao Zhang.

As soon as he met Akajiri Masasuke, he was very solemn, and said to Zhang Zuolin: "General Zhang, the imperial government and Russia are in an alliance. We will never allow our allies to be attacked. I think Fengjun must stop military operations with Russia."

"The Russians bullied Feng Jun's house, so do we want us to wait to be stabbed?"

"General Zhang, this is the last advice from the imperial government. If the Fengjun does not obey, we will stop the Fengjun from using the Middle East Road. The imperial government will do what it says!" (To be continued...)
