The Republic of Heroes

"The city hall has been captured, and Petrov's life or death is unknown."

Wu Xiaoliang was surprised that the fighting power of the Japanese landing army was so powerful. Even though the Suidong Army suppressed it with strong artillery fire and succeeded in sneak attack, it still broke out such a strong attack power, which should not be underestimated.

"What should we do? Reinforcement or stick to it?" Sun Jiayu, who had been silent all this time, asked at this moment. Originally, he was supposed to take a boat back to Tianjin with Xu Zibing this morning, but the Japanese's sudden attack made the plan of returning home had to run aground.

Wu Xiaoliang began to issue orders: "Send two platoons as small teams to find the whereabouts of Prince Petrov, and bring them back to the headquarters immediately after finding them." Launch an attack on the Japanese beachhead, be sure to drive him into the sea, let the second company go to reinforce him immediately, and intercept the Japanese army that may retreat from the city."

Wu Xiaoliang felt a headache because of the shortage of troops. The Japanese army was called a regiment, and he only had a reinforced battalion at best. After several divisions, his family was almost empty.

The peaceful streets of Vladivostok were once again interrupted by the sound of gunfire. The residents closed their doors and windows, anxiously waiting for the end of the battle.But the Japanese army seemed to have fallen into a state of madness. Shells were fired into the city, houses were shot into fire, and the screams of women and children stimulated the hearts of every Belarusian soldier. The palace was captured by the Japanese, and the Duke's rule in Vladivostok was about to come to an end. Their best hope was to flee north along the railway to join General Potemkin, and perhaps there was still a way out.

Petrov was among the chaotic soldiers, running in embarrassment, his beard trembled violently, and his fat body seemed to fall to the ground at any time. Baron Nevsky had been following him all the time, and at this moment he couldn't help suggesting: "My lord, We cannot give up on Vladivostok, we still have hope."

"Oh, God, forgive the poor sinner." Petrov made the sign of the cross on his chest, and then replied: "There is no hope, the army has no fighting spirit, and the Cossacks will not listen to orders. That cunning Chinese general." Speaking of Wu Xiaoliang, Petrov immediately had a very regretful expression on his face, and said: "According to reliable sources, the Japanese have already contacted him and offered him an extremely generous offer, and we will no matter what Conditions that cannot be met. Only fools would cooperate with us in this situation."

Nevsky remained silent, but he still vaguely felt that a miracle would happen. Petrov scoffed at the unrealistic fantasy of his assistant, gave a wry smile of disdain, and continued to flee for his life.

But a miracle happened at the most unlikely moment. After more than ten minutes, the rumbling guns stopped suddenly, followed by intensive gunfire, and the Japanese troops who were chasing after them began to retreat in an extremely hasty manner. In Nevsky's view, it can already be described as panic.

Petrov was also confused, and said to himself: "Marquis, did your miracle really happen?"

Nevsky immediately stopped the team's retreat and personally led the guards to investigate the situation.

"Brigade Commander, the Japanese army's positions have begun to shrink, and they seem to be unable to hold on."

"What about the losses?" Wu Xiaoliang knew that if he wanted the Japanese army to suffer, the price paid by the Suidong Army would definitely not be too small.

"Battalion Commander Liang attacked the troops head-on, with more than half of the casualties, please support."

When Wu Xiaoliang was defeated, why did the Suidong Army suffer more than half of the casualties?The Japanese army was not in the right place at the right time and place, and it has been able to persist until now without being defeated, which shows its strong combat effectiveness.It seems that there is not much hope for their complete annihilation. The only thing to do is to drive the Japanese army into the sea as soon as possible and reduce the casualties of the Suidong Army.

"Send a telegram to order Liang Yuchun and Li Ze's army to suspend the attack, prepare the forts and guns, and target the Japanese beachhead." He decided to use a powerful artillery offensive to completely break down the morale of the resisting Japanese army, hoping that they would withdraw as soon as possible.

Now that Sun Jiayu has brought a large amount of supplies, the Suidong Army's portable military telegraphs have spread to company-level units, so the coordination ability between the various ministries has been greatly improved, and the combat cooperation has become more tacit. The Second Department immediately stopped attacking, and the fort (0 mm caliber cannons opened fire immediately, and the Japanese position was once again ravaged by artillery fire.

Li Zejun picked up the military water bottle, took a big gulp, and then touched the water stains on his face with his left hand. The face covered with gunpowder smoke and dust was immediately mixed with mud.He didn't care, and immediately ordered: "Brothers, take the time to rest and check the guns. After a quarter of an hour, the shelling will stop, and it's time for us to show our talents again."

Li Zejun's heart is full of frustration at this moment. Since he joined the Suidong Army, all previous battles have been fought in one go, especially when he led the guard platoon to follow Wu Xiaoliang to Dongning Yanji. His flower machine gun platoon has always been They all conquer local positions with one charge, and they are almost invincible.But tonight, his platoon of machine guns turned into a company of machine guns. Not only did they not go down in one blow, but they were stuck firmly on the flanks of the beachhead. This made him extremely annoyed, but it also aroused his desire to win.He even secretly made up his mind that if he could not break through the Japanese positions, he would quit as a company commander.

In fact, Li Zejun also took advantage of the fact that the main force of the Japanese landing force was in the city. If this was not the case, it would be difficult for all of his flower machine gun companies to rest between shelling at this moment.

The hand-to-hand combat between the miners and the bandits has reached a fever pitch. Everyone is blinded by murder. Those with knives will chop at anyone they see, and those with iron bars will smash them at sight. Although they are slightly inferior in terms of weapons and equipment, they are better than life. Desperate.

It was only then that the miners discovered that many of the people they fought with were blond and blue-eyed with big noses. They were tall and strong, and they were often able to fight malnourished Chinese workers twice.Although the hand-to-hand combat was fierce, it was no longer a one-sided massacre by the bandits. The bandits began to suffer a large number of casualties. Therefore, the bandits gradually began to lose their support and showed signs of retreating. However, they did not seem to be scattered, but in units of several people , Formed several small groups, each small group has a leader, and every time the leader yells a few times, the morale of the bandits will be improved.

But Zhang Ergou rushed from left to right in the melee crowd, with tears in his eyes, and kept shouting: "Goofy! Gouba! When you hear it, call back to brother..."

But there is no answer, the only answer to him is screaming and screaming...
