Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

After Zhou Xingguo's department took over the task of attacking Lushunkou.The special operations brigade scattered around Lushunkou began to go to the entire Liaodong Peninsula under the command of the captain Chen Xinggang to monitor every move of all the Northeast Army defenders in the combat area.

Ding Xichun's independent eighth brigade had just left the station when a radio wave appeared over the land of Liaodong.

Liu Qingwen, the chief of staff of Zhou Xingguo's headquarters in Dalian City, walked up to Zhou Xingguo out of breath.Raising the telegram in his hand, he opened his mouth and said: "Master, the urgent telegram just sent by the Special Operations Brigade, the Northeast Army closest to us has already started to move... >

After quickly scanning the content of the telegram, a trace of disdain immediately appeared on Zhou Xingguo's face.Facing Chief of Staff Liu Qingwen, he said with a mocking face: "A brigade of more than 8000 people, Zhang Xueliang of the Northeast Army, really thinks highly of us. It is a brigade from the beginning. It seems that the prestige of our Ninth Army has not yet been established. ah...>

Liu Qingwen immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and responded with a smile: "The teacher is right, this Zhang Xueliang looks down on my Ninth Army too much. What I mean is, since the Northeast Army dares to take the initiative to attack, then we Don't be polite, just beat him up once and for all. When you see my Ninth Army in the future, your first thought is to hide...>

Zhou Xingguo nodded approvingly, and then said: "Old Liu, even though that's the case, don't forget my Ninth Army's consistent style of doing things: if the enemy does not attack us, we will not attack; if the enemy attacks us, we will The culprit. After all, Zhang Xueliang has 30 Northeast Army elites in his hands. Once we let the other party grasp something, it will be very detrimental to the entire Ninth Army and the commander-in-chief. Therefore, while hurting him, we also Be as cautious and prudent as possible, and don't let the other party grasp anything that can be used... >

After finishing speaking, Liu Qingwen, chief of staff, hadn't reacted yet.A staff officer from the division suddenly broke in panting.

"Division seat. Chief of staff, report from the garrison troops: A group of officers and soldiers from the Northeast Army came outside the city, claiming to be here to negotiate with us. The leader is a lieutenant colonel officer, with a total strength of less than one platoon. The garrison troops ask for instructions. .Do you want to let them go. Let them enter the city...>

"It really means that Cao Cao will be here...Old Liu, I was just going to say that we will have a "before the soldiers" with the Northeast Army. Unexpectedly, the Northeast Army has already started one step ahead of us. ...>

Chief of Staff Liu Qingwen's eyes lit up, and he said, "Master, I understand. It's just that the other party only sent a lieutenant colonel as a negotiator, obviously looking down on us. We don't know who to send...>

"I remember that Major Fan Ziyu of the Division's Logistics Department seems to be from a family of merchants. As a businessman, he has been influenced by his ears since he was a child, and he should be very good at negotiations. Let him go. In addition, tell Major Fan. During the negotiation process, try to be as big as possible. Open your mouth. After all, we never planned to win Liaodong through this negotiation... >

"Yes. Master seat...>

In a meeting room of the division headquarters, Li Yunfeng, the negotiator of the Northeast Army, waited for half an hour before closing the door of the meeting room.was pushed away.Major Fan Ziyu, the negotiator of the Ninth Army appointed by Zhou Xingguo, stood in front of Li Yunfeng with a smile on his face.And stretched out his right hand...>

"Hi Lieutenant Colonel Li, my humble fan Ziyu, I have been ordered to negotiate with you, I hope Lieutenant Colonel Li can give me some advice...>

After some greetings, the content of the conversation between the two of them immediately brought to the point.

"Major Fan, the purpose of my order to negotiate this time, I believe, you already know...>

With 30 Northeast Army elite as his backing, Li Yunfeng definitely has the confidence to threaten.Of course, Fan Ziyu is not a vegetarian either.He smiled and said, "I don't know how much Commander-in-Chief Zhang of the Northeast Army plans to pay me for the Ninth Army...>

"100 million ocean military expenses...>

"A million oceans...>

Of course, in Li Yunfeng's opinion, this expression must be because the amount he gave was too large, which shocked the other party.Immediately, facing Fan Ziyu who had a shocked expression in front of him, he continued to speak proudly.

"One million oceans may be a lot for your army. However, for our Northeast Army, it is just a drop in the bucket. I hope that your army will quickly withdraw from the Liaodong Peninsula after receiving the 100 million reward, and will Return Lushunkou and Dalian to the Northeast Army. Guarantee that the friendship between the two armies can continue to be maintained...>

Facing the proud expression on the opponent's face, Fan Ziyu sneered directly in his heart.He waved his hand, showed contempt, and asked back, "Lieutenant Colonel Li, do you know how many shells my Ninth Army spent during the entire battle to retake Lushunkou from the Japanese?"

Seeing the other party shaking his head for no reason, Fan Ziyu quickly took out a stack of photos from the folder he had prepared, and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Li, this is the current situation at Lushunkou. You are also a soldier, I believe you You can see from the photos how many shells can blow Lushunkou to look like in the photo...>

The photo in Fan Ziyu's hand, without any surprise, directly showed the scene after Lushunkou was bombed into ruins.Looking at the photo in his hand, Li Yunfeng was still dazed just now.There was a shocked expression on his face.Facing Fan Ziyu, he asked in disbelief. [

"Major Fan, Lushunkou was really blown into ruins by shells used by your army...>

"Lieutenant Colonel Li, the photo in your hand is the best proof. Of course, if you don't believe me, I can send someone to take you to Lushunkou. Take a real look at the current situation at Lushunkou...>

"No, I believe it... I was just thinking, how many shells would it take to blow up Lushunkou like the one in the photo..." Invisibly.Li Yunfeng fell into shock.Already being led by the nose by Fan Ziyu, he replied subconsciously.

"Lieutenant Colonel Li, I can answer this question for you...>

Li Yunfeng sitting in front of Fan Ziyu.At this moment, he had already become dumbfounded.Although I don't know whether what Fan Ziyu said is true, but half of the amount is still very possible (of course, Fan Ziyu said, there is ordinary water in it).After all, Lushunkou, which had been bombed into ruins, was clearly visible in front of him through photos.Absolutely can't make a fake...>

However, in Li Yunfeng's view, even more than half of the shell consumption is beyond his imagination...>

The Northeast Army where I belong, even if I look at the whole country.The weapons and equipment are the best troops.But it is such a force, its own independent eighth brigade, the total amount of artillery shells that can be used for all training and combat every year is less than 30 rounds.Even count all the [-] elites of the Northeast Army.The total amount of shells used each year is less than [-] rounds.

And in front of you.A main division under the Ninth Army consumes the consumption of the entire Northeast Army for a year in just one battle.What is this indicating?

The main division of the Ninth Army to recover Lushunkou must be equipped with a large number of heavy weapons.At the same time, it also shows that the Ninth Army has a large reserve of shells, otherwise, it would not be like a prodigal, consuming such a huge amount of shells in a siege battle.

With such a large number of artillery units, coupled with such a huge reserve of artillery shells.What kind of army is the Ninth Army that I have to face?And what kind of result will the Northeast Army to which he belongs face the Ninth Army on the battlefield?

This was Li Yunfeng's first thought as a soldier from this answer.

However, after this idea flashed from Li Yunfeng's mind, another question appeared in front of him: at this moment, what is the purpose of Fan Ziyu telling himself this answer?

And Fan Ziyu's next answer directly solved the question in Li Yunfeng's mind.

"Lieutenant Colonel Li, do you know how much ocean will be consumed if you buy so many shells with money?"

"Based on the current arms prices in the international market, the price of a round of naval gun shells has reached [-] oceans, and the shells of small and medium-caliber naval guns are at least [-] oceans...>

"I roughly calculated the consumption of so many shells. This time the capture of Lushunkou, our Ninth Army spent more than 500 million oceans... >

"The military expenditure of 500 million yuan is only the consumption of shells. If you count other items such as bullets, weapons and equipment, logistical supplies, pensions for soldiers killed in battle and disabled soldiers...>

Fan Ziyu was worthy of being a businessman, and the other party had nothing to say just from the consumption of shells.The face that was full of confidence just now suddenly revealed an expression of shame.

1 minute, 2 minutes... After 5 minutes of silence in a small conference room.Li Yunfeng, who was astonished, came to his senses under the gaze of Fan Ziyu with a smile on his face.With a skeptical tone, he asked back.

"Major Fan believes that the Northeast Army has to spend a lot of military expenditures to allow your army to withdraw from Lushunkou on its own initiative...>

"A million oceans...>

"A million oceans...>

"Yes, it's 5000 million oceans, not one cent less...>

5000 million oceans is for Li Guosheng who has the cornucopia of 'Ludong Foreign Trade Company'.Although nothing.However, it is a very huge sum of money for other domestic forces, and even the Nanjing central "government".

Fan Ziyu can be sure, 5000 million oceans.Unless Zhang Xueliang is crazy.Otherwise, I will never take out this sum of money... >

Therefore, in Fan Ziyu's eyes, the lion facing the Ninth Army opened his mouth.Zhang Xueliang would rather launch a military attack than redeem the two cities with money.

Of course, as long as Zhang Xueliang launches a military offensive.Take the initiative to provoke a war with the Ninth Army.Then, the Ninth Army has a reason to launch a military counterattack and take the entire Liaodong Peninsula justifiably.At that time, the Ninth Army, which helped Zhang Xueliang take back Lushunkou and avenged his father's killing, will use the entire Liaodong Peninsula as a reward, and will definitely not be gossiped by others.

Less than a day after the negotiations broke down, Ding Xichun's independent Eighth Brigade, tens of thousands of Northeast Army, had already stationed troops 79 kilometers outside Dalian City.Conducted a military confrontation with the [-]th regiment of Zhou Xingguo's department.

"Traveler, the investigation has been clear... >

"Not equipped with a heavy machine gun, are you sure?" Ding Xichun asked rhetorically.

"OK...>

"It seems that Li Yunfeng's report is not very true...>

After finishing speaking, he turned to Chen Dongqun, the chief of staff in front of him.Decisively ordered: "Old Chen, order the 622 regiment, immediately transfer a battalion, quickly take down the forward position of the Ninth Army, and let the Ninth Army have a good taste of the true combat effectiveness of our Northeast Army..."

"Yes, Traveler...>

A battalion of soldiers of the Northeast Army, under the cover of several heavy machine guns behind them.Arched, lined up in the unique offensive formation of the Japanese army (the Northeast Army is basically trained by Japanese instructors, and the formation and tactical movements of the troops are also derived from the Japanese army), like a yellow wave, mighty. "Swing" pressed towards the 79th regiment.

"Brothers, remember what I just said...>

"Company commander, don't worry, brothers remember...>

500m...>

At the position of 300 meters, more than 100 people in a company began to counterattack with rifles directly under the order of the company commander.The messy gunshots, although in a short period of time, harvested many lives of the Northeast Army.However, due to the fact that the shooting distance was too far, after several rounds of shooting, except for less than one platoon casualty in the first battalion of the 622 regiment, no casualties were caused.

And the continuous counterattack gunfire gradually became more and more chaotic because of the continuous approach and dispersion of the Northeast Army's offensive troops.The aim of the bullet is not as accurate as it was at the beginning... >

Of course, all of this is an illusion deliberately created by Lian for the Northeast Army...>

"Haha, brothers, work harder for me. The Ninth Army on the opposite side has already been discouraged, and its marksmanship is not accurate."

"Brothers, order from the brigade, rush to the battlefield, and reward each person with a piece of ocean...>

The 79th Regiment, one battalion and one company, seemed to cooperate with the Northeast Army that was getting closer and closer.A burst of shouting and killing sounded from the Northeast Army's offensive formation, and a series of gunshots that were already messy became even more inaccurate.

At the same time, a company of three light machine guns suddenly joined the flames of war in the defensive position, although in a short period of time, it once again caused a platoon of casualties to the Northeast Army.However, as the Northeast Army's several heavy machine guns began to suppress "sexual" fire, the results of the three light machine guns were only so great.

As the Northeast Army's attacking troops got closer and closer to the position, there was gradually a sign of being unable to hold on and about to collapse... >

100 meters, 80 meters...>

There was a burst of dense grenade explosions, and the company that stood firm on the position, under the attack of the Northeast Army, finally couldn't hold it back and began to flee.The offensive troops of a battalion of the Northeast Army also successfully occupied the forward positions of the 79th regiment.
