On the Jianzhou front line, the positions of the Montenegro Principality Corps and the Hercynian-Japanese Allied Forces were intertwined, but the fighting between the two sides was not fierce.
For the Haixi Army and the Japanese Army, everyone knew that the war would end easily when reinforcements from the Japanese Kingdom arrived.
As for the Black Mountain Corps, even its main division does not seem to be as brave and good at fighting as the legend says. Instead, it lacks fighting courage and its attack is not fierce.
Yesterday, the Japanese army suddenly withdrew to set up new positions.
This made some generals of the Haixi Army very uneasy. Fortunately, the Montenegro Corps did not take the opportunity to launch an attack, and their own troops quickly filled the gap, so they all breathed a sigh of relief.
…
The 1st Artillery Brigade of the Haixi Army is deployed on the Xiaosongshan Highlands. They are all large-caliber artillery with amazing firepower. They can support operations more than ten kilometers away from the front line.
It is the latest artillery piece that Liu Bangchang bought from Japan at a huge expense.
The 1st Artillery Brigade is also the trump card weapon used by the Haixi Army to fight tough battles.
During the Jianzhou War, he also supported the front-line troops several times to repel the attacks of the Montenegrin army. It was the existence of the Dinghai Shenzhen.
Brigadier Gao Shunxing is a very cautious person. Our own side occupies a favorable geographical location, and the artillery positions of the Montenegrin Army are often under threat from our own side. They often withdraw after a short period of bombardment. However, Gao Shunxing strictly followed the "Artillery Drill Code" learned from Japan. When the war eased, he ordered all artillerymen to add camouflage to their artillery. , usually using camouflage made of various green leaves and branches to cover up the artillery. As long as the opponent's scouts do not get close, it is difficult to find the exact location of one's own artillery position.
At this time, Gao Shunxing, accompanied by several officers, was riding a tall horse to inspect his artillery position.
"Brigade! When this war is over, Brigade will have the greatest contribution. In defeating the Montenegrin Army, our artillery will take the greatest credit!"
The adjutant next to him laughed and said.
Gao Shunxing was very cautious, but he still smiled happily after hearing the adjutant's compliments.
At this time, there seemed to be a black flock of birds flying in the distant sky, and there was a strange buzzing sound.
However, no one cares about this. The reinforcements from Japan should have landed at Feishan Port.
This war will end soon, and when the time comes, rewards will be based on merit.
Gao Shunxing was slightly tipsy thinking about the bright future.
…
Montenegro Regiment trench position.
Liu Sanmu silently wiped the weapon in his hand.
He is the platoon leader of the fire platoon of the first company of the third battalion of the first regiment of the first guard division, with the rank of sergeant major.
Beside him, there were soldiers arranging mortars, and there were several soldiers pushing small artillery pieces, adjusting the firing angle of the artillery pieces.
In today's tactics, these small cannons are placed on the front line and shoot directly at the enemy.
However, the Montenegro Corps is gradually abandoning this tactic. The infantry company requires mobility and the firepower of light and heavy weapons. As for artillery, it is left to the organic artillery unit.
Liu Sanmu is a veteran who has been in the army for forty years. He is now in his early fifties and is a dark-skinned man who looks extremely strong.
He was the platoon leader when the Black Mountain Brigade was first formed, and he is still the platoon leader now.
No way, not every veteran can become an excellent officer. His advantages lie in his bravery and ability to fight and his sense of small-scale contact battles.
But he does not have the talent to command an organized military unit such as a company or a whole battalion in combat, and he will not be able to learn it when he is old.
However, as a sergeant major, his allowance is similar to that of a school-level officer, similar to the treatment of a battalion-level officer.
Company-level officers from other units must salute when they see him.
Many people believe that it was Liu Sanmu's existence that made His Royal Highness the Prince pay more attention to veterans, which led to the sergeant major classification reform.
Back then, His Royal Highness the Prince had lived with Liu Sanmu's team through thick and thin for nearly a month.
This is also one of the most talked-about examples in the entire army today of His Royal Highness loving his soldiers as his sons.
However, Liu Sanmu knew in his heart that, as the intellectuals said, His Highness the Prince has a beautiful world in his mind, how could others guess it? He was just used by the prince as an introduction to introduce the sergeant major's hierarchical reform.
Liu Sanmu only had respect and gratitude for His Highness the Prince.
His Royal Highness the Prince is not very old, but he always feels that he is like a loving father to the entire army and his master-father.
My parents originally named themselves Sanmu, hoping that their family would have three acres of thin farmland in the future. However, as they got older, it was not until His Highness the Prince came to power that this long-cherished wish finally came true, and it was not just three acres of thin farmland.
It's a pity that my parents couldn't see me today, but it's time to smile.
Several sons have to serve in the army. If it were not for the military system of the principality, only one of the brothers could join the army. I am afraid that now the entire Liu family will be soldiers.
Moreover, he also has grandchildren. What more can he ask for in this life?
I had never dared to think about it before. In a big family, all the sons are married to wives, and the three generations live together under the same roof.
What other regrets are there?
It will be enough if I can help His Royal Highness kill a few more enemies in my lifetime.
"Boss, are we serious this time?" A young man holding a submachine gun next to him leaned against the ditch beside Liu Sanmu.
Liu Sanmu looked at his watch and nodded: "The general attack will be launched in one hour."
"I heard there was an explosion to the north?" the young man asked curiously.
Liu Sanmu smiled: "It should be our air support, bombing the artillery positions of the Haixi people in Xiaosongshan. After a while, it will be time to bomb their first-line firepower points. Any forts and close-range artillery will do it." Get bombed.”
The young man stuck out his tongue: "Is it an airship? How about those old Haixi old men being beaten mercilessly?" His eyes lit up again, "Boss, let me tell some of the brothers over there?"
Liu Sanmu smiled and said, "Also, the Japanese were bombed by our air force on the sea. Tens of thousands of them died, and there were only a few ships left. They ran back in despair!"
The young man was stunned: "Air force? Is it also an airship?"
Liu Sanmu smiled and said: "It's a plane, a plane that can drop bombs. We'll see it soon!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then stood up. He had to step up a little to get higher than the trench. He picked up the binoculars and looked at the various trench barbed wire positions on the opposite side. After looking at them for a long time, he retracted without knowing why. "Boss, it will take an hour." Later?"
Liu Sanmu nodded: "Well, first use planes to blow it up, then use cannons to plow it, and then leave it to us!"
Glancing at the young man, Liu Sanmu smiled slightly: "Silly boy, go tell everyone. I will tell everyone my exact words. I only found out about it after attending the military mobilization meeting of the entire battalion officers an hour ago. It was conveyed to everyone level by level. What comes down will also be conveyed to you verbally. After the war, all this will be officially documented and we will all learn from it!"
The young man was speechless and sighed deeply: "His Highness is a god. Every time we fight, we act like gods. Several times, I said, I will give up my life. For the sake of my brothers and sisters, and for theirs." Future generations can live a good life, and our life is worth it, but we just can’t fight for it!" He turned to look at Liu Sanmu curiously: "Boss, you slept with our Highness. One house, right?”
Liu Sanmu smiled and said: "That's nonsense. Our master is very clean. To endure hardship with us is to endure hardship. We sleep together in the wild, but if we go into the house? Then we can't sleep together with our stinky ones." , The old man is always followed by fairies, and those fairies are also very powerful, you know that Gao Man Niu? He was slapped away by the fairy!"
The young man was even more surprised, "Gao Laoxi? Didn't he get special merit last month? He killed more than a dozen Japanese soldiers with a bayonet alone?"
Liu Sanmu nodded, then laughed and scolded: "Go quickly! Tell everyone the good news!"
The young man stuck out his tongue: "Okay, tell me your Highness's story next time!"
"Every day is endless!" Liu Sanmu glared and raised her foot to kick the young man's butt, but the young man ran away quickly.
…
Former enemy headquarters, simple wooden house.
Lu Ming looked at the newly received telegram, shook his head helplessly, and handed the telegram to Zhao Jingxun beside him.
Zhao Jingxun is the Minister of Political Training of the "Joint Conference of the All-Military Forces", the newly established highest military command body of the Principality, and the first deputy minister of the newly established Defense Ministry of the Principality.
The Minister of National Defense is a civilian official, while Zhao Jingxun is a combination of civilian and military officials.
The "Joint Military Conference" is the highest command body of the principality's armed forces. It is governed by the law of the principality. His Royal Highness and his successors are the natural supreme commanders of the three armed forces of the principality. Therefore, the "joint military conference" does not have the position of chairman. , there is only one vice-president, who is theoretically the heir to the principality, but now it is assumed by Her Royal Highness the Holy Princess.
At the same time, there are two assistants. One is the director of His Royal Highness the Prince's East China Sea Office, which seems to be called "Baozhu Palace". He is also the Minister of the Privy Council of His Highness the Prince. His full name is very long. "The representative of all East China Sea industries owned by His Royal Highness the Prince of Black Mountain Castle" ”, “Minister for Special Affairs”.
One is the director of His Royal Highness the Prince's Montenegro Office, which seems to be called "Liu Li Palace". He is also the Minister of the Privy Council, the Land Supervisor of Montenegro Castle and the Minister of Equality Affairs.
However, the two ministers are very mysterious, and the related matters related to them are handled by senior advisers in the office.
Zhao Jingxun took the telegram from His Highness the Prince and couldn't help laughing after reading it.
It turned out that Wang Taishan, commander of the Jiangnan Province Border Guard Division, finally ordered his border guard division to launch an attack on Montenegro.
After procrastinating and procrastinating, until now, the Japanese reinforcements have been completely destroyed, and our own side should be bombing the Haixi Army positions, and the entire army is about to launch a general offensive, defeating the Haixi Army in one fell swoop and ending the Jianzhou Battle.
At this time, Wang Taishan started a war?
It's simply dumbfounding.
The news was too late, and we were completely unaware of the various changes that had taken place in the Northern Territory war situation.
Isn't this exactly what happened in 1949 when he defected to the national army?
This is what His Royal Highness the Prince said, and it is a metaphor for the extremely stupid behavior of some speculators.
"Your Highness, these two sides have caused today's ridiculous situation!" Zhao Jingxun smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The Special Work Department of the Secrecy Bureau contacted Wang Taishan, promised many benefits, and bribed him, which also enabled the offensive planned by the Jiangnan Army to be defused.
Unexpectedly, this guy regretted it again, but it was the right time to regret it.
If it was half a month ago, he could still put pressure on his own rear, but now?
Lu Ming nodded: "If the Black Mountain garrison is to attack the invading enemy, it will be enough to hold them back for about ten hours. The Jianzhou Campaign will be over. At that time, you can hold a press conference to report on our results. , Well, the story about the bombing of Dongyinghai Road is a bit vague, but the results data can be given!"
"Yes!" Zhao Jingxun stood at attention and smiled again: "Ten hours? Just Wang Taishan's stragglers? They are much worse than the Haixi Army. I feel that in ten hours, Wang Taishan's soldiers will not be able to assemble on the front line. No trace of our defenders can be seen!”
Lu Ming waved his hand. Zhao Jingxun did not dare to joke anymore and hurriedly called for the confidential staff to prepare a reply to the message from the Montenegro security force.
