Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I have already secretly ordered a battalion of infantry to lie in ambush outside the Nine Gates. As soon as the Japanese army withdraws from the Xiaobei Gate, they will enter the city from the Nine Gates, copy behind them, and make dumplings for them."

When Xiong Tiesheng and Wu Yuankai were surprised, the messenger reported again: "The Japanese army retreated across the board, and the forward of the Fengzi Battalion of the Kaizi Army has reached Shunyi Street." Xiong Tiesheng was dissatisfied when he heard that the Kaizi Army had the upper hand, and Lin Yuan laughed and said: " Order the Yongzi Battalion and Mengzi Battalion of the Tiezi Army to move in the direction of Daximen after entering the city, and after occupying Daximen, go out of the city to meet the Dingwu Army."

After the two infantry battalions took the order, they rushed towards Shenyang City like a group of tigers descending from the mountain. After entering the city, they attacked in the direction of Daximen.

In street fighting, the intersection is an important target. If you seize the intersection, you can monitor the enemy's actions and annihilate the enemy at the intersection.

The area between Xiaoximen and Daximen is more prosperous, and there are more roads. The Qing army fought here, mainly to grab the intersection and commanding heights.The Japanese army had been prepared for this for a long time. They set up bunkers at major intersections to check the passing pedestrians in peacetime, and used them to resist the attack of the Qing army in wartime.

Shenyang has three city walls, the outermost outer city, the inner city in the middle, and the innermost imperial city, where the royal family lived before the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs. The Japanese army focused on the defense of the city, and most of the machine guns were deployed on the front line of the city wall. , They never expected that the Qing army would attack the city without any effort, and the machine guns in the outer city could not be brought back, and the machine guns in the inner city could not be moved, so the Japanese army suffered a big loss in the defensive operations.

In the hands of the Japanese army, there were only rifles with a pitifully slow rate of fire. In view of this, when the Qing army attacked, they used the Gatling cannon to lead the attack. There are guards on both sides of the gun. The so-called guards are iron plates placed on both sides of the barrel to protect the shooter.

The Qing army gave full play to their ingenuity. They found quilts, soaked them in water, and spread them on the iron plate. This was equivalent to adding another layer of armor to the iron plate. The Qing army pushed it to the street. The Japanese army’s bunkers walked, and fired while walking. A dozen rounds of nearly [-]mm shells could smash the Japanese army’s bunkers into a sieve.

Such a sharp weapon actually has a fatal flaw, that is, it cannot deal with the threat above it, so as long as another position is set up on the building next to the street, it can effectively suppress the Qing army's Gelin cannon, but the war After all, it is not a game, and there is no chance to do it again after death. Many grassroots commanders of the Japanese army only thought of this method when they were dying.

The Qing army was in full swing all the way, and soon advanced to a place only about one kilometer away from Daximen.Da Shanyan, the supreme commander of the Japanese army, couldn't believe his ears when he heard the news. The Qing army broke through the outer city defenses overnight and entered the city within two days. Now it is only three hours before the Qing army entered the city. , Daximen will also be lost.

For Dashanyan, there are too many mysteries in the battles these days, why the bunker didn't fire a single shot, and how the Qing army opened the city gate and rushed in, but these things have passed, he I don't want to think about it anymore, the thing to decide is: should we withdraw the defenders outside the city?

If they were to withdraw, the Dingwu Army would take advantage of the situation and enter the city. Then most of the western part of Fengtian City would be given over to the Qing Army.

After thinking over and over again, Da Shanyan finally made a decision. He wanted to implement another plan, which was to drag down the Qing army in street fighting. In street fighting, familiarity with the terrain was the key to victory. There is another more important reason for street fighting - he wants to encircle Lin Yuan in Fengtian.

Lin Yuan wanted to fight Fengtian, largely because the Japanese army in the north and the south would be cut off after defeating Fengtian. The Japanese army in the north was relatively small, so there was nothing to worry about, and he could concentrate on dealing with the Japanese army in the direction of Lushun and Dalian; Da Shanyan decided to stick to Fengtian. , The purpose is to use Fengtian's solid defense to consume Lin Yuan's strength, and when the fighter plane appears, immediately mobilize a large number of troops from Liaoyang and Lushun to encircle Lin Yuan.

But he didn't expect that: Lin Yuan broke through Fengtian's defense almost effortlessly, and it seems that the heavy responsibility of holding Lin Yuan can only fall on Street Fighter.

So Da Shanyan immediately ordered that the Japanese troops facing the Dingwu Army in the southwest withdraw to the city, and turned to the defensive position. With an order, the outer defenders immediately withdrew from the city. When the outer defenders withdrew, Dashanyan ordered the Japanese troops Abandon Daximen and turn to the city for defensive operations.

The Japanese army in the inner city also slowed down and went out to support the Japanese army in the outer city. The Qing army's offensive gradually became very difficult. It advanced less than 100 meters in an hour. Many streets even changed hands several times. When it was dark, the two sides They all stopped fighting at the same time, and the Qing army occupied most of the western urban area in a one-day attack.

Next, the focus of the battle will be on the street fighting. If the Qing army captures Fengtian before the Japanese encircle it, they will be able to use the city defenses to defeat the reinforcements from Liaoyang. If the Qing army fails to do so, they will be encircled by the reinforcements from Liaoyang. ,completely annihilated.

Xiong Tiesheng and Wu Yuankai were very puzzled by Lin Yuan's order to stop the attack. Xiong Tiesheng first asked: "Now why don't we strike while the iron is hot and go to the inner city in one go!"

Wu Yuankai also said: "That's right, Commander Lin, it will be difficult to fight when the Japanese army recovers."

Lin Yuan stroked the map with his hand, and said: "Look at our current location, the buildings are not very dense. If we move forward, the buildings are very dense. The Japanese army's defensive goal is to use street fighting to hold us back. So the Japanese army will definitely fortify these complexes." Wu Yuankai said: "Shuai Lin, don't we have to fight here sooner or later?"

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "It is necessary to fight, but you are not going to fight. I have already dispatched a surprise soldier."

Xiong Tiesheng said anxiously: "Shuai Lin, are you saying we can't fight?"

Lin Yuan quickly said: "There is a way to specialize in art and specialization. The subordinates of the two generals are good at field battles. The strange soldiers I sent are best at street fighting!"

While talking, someone came to report: "There is an army outside the camp, can Commander Lin let them in?"

After hearing this, Lin Yuan said to Wu Yuankai and Xiong Tiesheng: "Our Street Fighter Raiders are here, come with me to have a look."

When everyone came outside the camp, they saw nearly a thousand people sitting neatly in the open space. Surprisingly, no one spoke, which showed the strict military discipline.

Lin Yuan stepped forward, and a person stood up in front of the crowd, and shouted at the crowd: "Stand up!" The crowd sat densely, and when they heard the shout, they immediately stood up and stood at attention.

The man then shouted: "Look to the right, look forward! Take a break! Stand at attention!" The voice was so loud that Wu Yuankai and Xiong Tiesheng's ears buzzed.

The man ran up to Lin Yuan and saluted with a "snap". Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It's come to this age, so don't come here to ask for instructions and report the process again." So he waved his hands again and again.

According to the practice of our army’s request for instructions and reports, the subordinate saluted, and the superior had to return the salute. If the superior did not put down his hand, the subordinate would not put his hand down. Seeing that Lin Yuan did not return the salute, the man kept raising his hand on his temple.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to return the gift, and the man said: "The first brigade has assembled, please give instructions, on behalf of the brigade commander, Deng Hong!"
