Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Although Nogi Xidian escaped, the Japanese army in Baihe Town still fought to the death, especially the Japanese army on the high slope, relying on their own favorable terrain, did not have the slightest intention of giving up resistance, and kept fighting on the high slope. Lin Yuan's troops fired cold shots, but it was too dark to hit any of these bullets. Even so, Lin Yuan's troops did not dare to attack the top of the high slope easily.

Xiao Yingwu carefully observed the situation on the battlefield, so he ordered the troops: adopt the method of encircling the Japanese army on the high slope without fighting, and concentrate their forces to attack the Suzuki Brigade in the Qing army camp. , Soon unable to resist, the Lin Yuan troops of the two battalions directly penetrated into the interior of the Japanese army, dividing the Japanese offensive formation into four sections, and the Japanese troops in each section could not care about each other.

After dividing the Japanese army, Lin Yuan's troops quickly divided and surrounded the Japanese army. The Japanese army's blocking battle instantly turned into a breakout battle. Lin Yuan's troops attacked with all their strength and surrounded and annihilated the Japanese army. At one o'clock in the morning on the [-]th, Ichiro Takekawa issued an order to "broken jade"!Equipped with bayonets, the Japanese army rushed up to Lin Yuan's troops, wanting to engage in hand-to-hand combat, but Lin Yuan's troops didn't give them a chance at all. With a burst of random shooting, all the Japanese soldiers were knocked to the ground.

After Lin Yuan's troops wiped out the Japanese Suzuki Brigade, all the troops quickly launched an attack on Gaopo's Japanese troops. At this time, Gaopo was surrounded by Lin Yuan's troops on all sides. The shells were fired, and for a while, the shells were like plowing the ground, blowing up almost every corner of the high slope.

The Japanese Gaopo defenders once again "broken jade". At 700 o'clock in the morning on November [-], the battle was all over. At [-] o'clock in the morning on November [-], Lin Yuan announced to the outside world that the battle on the north bank of the Huaihe River had ended successfully and wiped out the Japanese army. More than [-] people, the news of the Qing army defender Ning Feng's battlefield uprising.

At this time, in Yuan Shikai's camp, Naimu Xidian was roaring angrily at Yuan Shikai: "Master Yuan, your subordinates are so outrageous that they betrayed you!"

Yuan Shikai thought to himself: "If you weren't domineering, my troops would have betrayed me?" But Yuan Shikai couldn't say it directly, so he could only agree with a smile. Nogi Xidian wanted to say more, and at this time a Japanese army staff officer came in. Said: "Your Excellency General, Master Yuan, General Kodama is here."

Yuan Shikai and Nogi Xidian were very surprised when they heard this. Yuan Shikai asked, "Why is General Kodama here?"

The staff officer replied: "General Kodama heard about the situation on the Huaihe defense line, so he took the train overnight and rushed to Huai'an. After getting off the train, he went to the barracks."

Yuan Shikai hurriedly said: "Hurry up and invite Your Excellency General to come in." Soon Kodama Gentaro came, and Kodama Gentaro came in to exchange greetings with Yuan Shikai and said, "Master Yuan, I want to have a private chat with General Nogi. "

Yuan Shikai said: "Then you go to the reception room." Kodama Gentaro thanked with a smile, and left with Nogi Nozomi. Yuan Shikai thought behind him: "What are they trying to do? They want to avoid me."

Kodama Gentaro brought Nogi Nozomi to the reception room. Nogi Nogi and Kodama Gentaro had similar positions in the Japanese army, so he was not afraid of him, and asked, "Kodama-kun, what's the matter with bringing me here alone?"

Kodama Gentaro said: "Nogi-kun, I want to announce to you an order from His Majesty the Emperor."

Nogi Nozomi stood at attention with a "snap" and said, "Long live the Great Japanese Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Swear allegiance to the Emperor to the death!"

Kodama Gentaro smiled lightly and said, "Nogi-kun, there are only two of us here, so don't say those words!"

Nogi Nozomi frowned, and said: "Is there no one who can not say it?" Nogi Nozomi was a guy who was extremely loyal to the emperor. In Lin Yuan's era, Nogi Noki took his wife to commit suicide and was buried as soon as Emperor Meiji died!So it is not surprising to say a few slogans now.

Kodama Gentaro said: "Nogi-kun, His Majesty the Emperor orders you to resign as the captain of the Third Regiment!"

Nogi Xidian said angrily: "When did His Majesty issue the order? Why? Could it be because of my failure? I am not responsible for the failure at all. It was the hateful Chinese who betrayed us, and I failed. I am not afraid of the most powerful I am afraid of my most incompetent teammates, if something like this happens, what can I do?"

Kodama Gentaro thought to himself: "Then why don't you think about why the Chinese people betrayed you? Isn't it because you acted too hard and forced Yuan Shikai's subordinates to rebel?" But Kodama Gentaro didn't want to talk about these things, he didn't He was willing to conflict with Nogi Nozomi, so he said: "It's not because of this matter, but because His Majesty the Emperor wants to give you another position, and this new position is also very important."

Nogi Nozomi asked, "What new position?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said, "Governor of North Korea!"

Nogi Nozomi asked with a blank face: "Why do you want me to be the governor of North Korea?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said: "The empire is ready to do something on the northeast border, and it needs a handsome man like you to lead the overall situation."

Nogi Xidian's eyes brightened, and he said, "Are we going to attack the Northeast?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said, "I don't have that plan for now, but we will stir up some troubles in the northeast."

Nogi Nozomi asked: "Stir up something? What is that?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said, "I don't know the details, but you will understand when you go to North Korea."

Nogi Nozomi asked, "Then when should I leave?"

Gentaro Kodama replied: "Leave tomorrow. We have recently brought in our own railway workers. Now the railway from Guangzhou to Nanjing can be used. You will return to Nanjing tomorrow, and then go from Nanjing to Guangzhou. After arriving in Guangzhou, take a train." British ships back to Japan."

Nogi Xidian agreed, Kodama Gentaro smiled and said: "I went to Yuan Shikai to discuss the matter of defense." Then Kodama Gentaro found Yuan Shikai and said to Yuan Shikai: "Master Yuan, let's discuss the future things?"

Yuan Shikai sighed, and said: "My subordinates actually betrayed me and even implicated the imperial army of the Great Japanese Empire. Yuan is really ashamed!"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said: "We also have something wrong with this matter. I hope Lord Yuan can forgive me. I have sent Nogi Nozomi back. Also, I will personally command the remnants of the third regiment and the fourth regiment. The Huaihe defense line has become the grave of Lin Yuan's troops!"

Yuan Shikai said: "Since there is a general commanding it, it would be great. I wonder if the general has any clever tricks to resist Lin Yuan's troops?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said: "I said a long time ago that we must never use passive defense when fighting Lin Yuan, we must take the initiative!"

Yuan Shikai said helplessly: "Attack on the initiative? How to attack on the initiative?"

Kodama Gentaro smiled and said: "We have fought against Lin Yuan many times, and we know that Lin Yuan is used to lure the enemy deep, so why don't we retaliate against him in his own way, and lure the enemy deep here as well?"

Yuan Shikai's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said, "Tell me quickly, how to lure the enemy into deep?"
