"Your Excellency, Commander, you are right!"
After a long time, Nogi Nogi finally said a word.
Xiao Shanyan was so happy that he flew up.
He held Nogi Hidenori's hand and shook it excitedly: "Nogi, the empire will never forget you. I have reported the deeds of the book to the headquarters and will definitely give it to him as a posthumous gift."
Nogi Nogi smiled bitterly: "Everyone is dead, so what's the use!"
Xiao Shanyan shook his head helplessly: "You have to understand me, our situation is not good now."
He smiled bitterly and said: "The base camp did not fully estimate the strength of Lushun. Not only was the map wrong (don't think the Japanese maps are always good), it even labeled the fortifications around Lushun as "semi-permanent fortifications."
But after we attacked, we learned that the fortress could withstand 23cm artillery fire. Our maximum caliber artillery was only 15cm, and the weight and lethality of the shells were far from enough. If the artillery cannot provide effective cover, we can only use the sea of people to pile up. "
"But how many people have we lost in just a few battles? Fifteen thousand people died in the first general attack. Casualties have continued to increase these days and have reached 60,000. If we cannot break the situation, we will all return home and be punished ah."
Xiao Shanyan was also driven into panic.
"The base camp has given an ultimatum, twenty days. If we can't break through the Lushun Fortress in twenty days, we will attack Highland 208. You know what the situation will be."
Koyama Iwa's words made Nogi Nogi also smile helplessly.
208 Highland is a meat grinder.
Nogi Nogi didn't want to attack there.
Although artillery positions can be set up there to directly attack the interior of Lushun, Hongmao is not a fool. He can be heavily guarded there and build countless trenches.
He estimated that he would not be able to take it down without the death of 100,000 people.
"I understand what Your Excellency Commander means, but I plan to try again. Please allow Your Excellency Commander, if that doesn't work, I can win over that Nie Li and attack from behind, okay?"
He was still unwilling to give in.
Such a way to let go of the murderer of his son.
Koyama Iwa knew that he had to give Nogi Nogi a face at this time.
"Okay! But if it still doesn't work, then we have to win over Nie Li. You can go there in person."
Nogi Nogi nodded solemnly.
Immediately go back to study the second attack.
This time he plans to use new tactics. Determined to dig tunnels, bury explosives, and blow up the three major fortresses in the northeast, he only had eight days.
The base camp gave Xiao Shanyan twenty days.
And he only had eight days
Digging a tunnel cannot be completed in a short time, and eight days is probably a rush.
Eight days later, Nogi Nogi's plan failed. He misjudged the difficulty of breaking ground in winter.
The soil of the three provinces is harder than the iron.
In desperation, he sent the report to Nie Li.
He decided to listen to Xiao Shanyan's arrangement.
Nie Li was a little confused when he received the telegram from Nogi Nogi.
Discuss plans together? What big plan should I discuss with you, a war leader? We don't get along.
However, due to excessive spending these days, the three million borrowed by Nie Li has been spent.
Still decided to talk to Nogi Nogi.
See if you can get some benefits.
Nie Li is very generous these days.
There is a blacksmith shop, a hospital, a training ground, and a car dealership, a large-scale construction branch.
The three million borrowed water floats were gone before they were even used.
There is not even enough money left to summon the younger brother. .
Nie Li has not been idle these days. The naval camp is a good position. He can attack the urban area of Bulong Port when he enters, and he can slowly encroach on Longwangtang and other places when retreating, and he can even attack in the direction of Fengtian.
Nie Li took a fancy to it.
The security division was also transferred over, and only one battalion was left to garrison Zhangjiacun.
The rest were all brought to the naval camp.
He wants to make this place a base camp and a nail in the coffin for both sides.
More than 10,000 people controlled the entire naval camp.
As for the fleeing people, Nie Li temporarily settled near Longwang Pond, and even recruited a group of soldiers because of Chen Liuzi and others.
Not much, just three thousand.
But it’s all young labor.
With a little training, he could go to the battlefield. Nie Li estimated that it would only take a month to reach the combat effectiveness of a red-haired soldier.
If you want to reach the combat effectiveness of your own unit, it will take at least three months.
At the same time, Nie Li also sent out a bright message and spread a lot of news around him.
"Nie Li is stationed at the naval camp and welcomes people with lofty ideals to join us."
This behavior, in colloquial terms, is considered to be a stick.
Nie Li officially took root in the three provinces. So, all the gangsters near the navy camp and Longwang Pond came to vote.
Even the killers who had killed the Chicken Man in the Foot Pot before and had seen blood were looking for a future.
Nie Li was also generous and would reimburse the travel expenses for anyone who came, no matter what.
If I choose, it will cost me ten yuan to settle down.
In eight days, Nie Li accepted such people one after another, at least three thousand of them.
They were all sent to the training ground for training.
In other words, Nie Li's military strength has expanded again. From the original 14,000 people, it increased to 20,000.
As long as he was given three months, six thousand screaming soldiers would come.
After receiving the news that Fengshan had left the border, Nie Li temporarily settled Fengshan near Zhangjia Village, and that camp was just waiting for them.
There are many others who are far away and are also on the way.
Prepare to find a future with Nie Li.
Near the naval camp, Nie Li built a war fortress with cement. Although eight days was not enough time, it was enough to build basic fortifications.
Like trenches, they were dug almost all over the naval camp.
In order to increase the power of the trenches, Nie Li even added sandbags, concrete permanent structures, turrets, machine gun placement points, waterproof fences, spurs, barbed wire, and underground weapons warehouses and bunker-like command posts.
Moreover, this will be Nie Li's base camp, equipped with canteens, underground health clinics, and toilets for soldiers' daily life.
In short, the naval camp will become a combat bunker in the future.
A 194mm caliber self-propelled artillery, and a newly purchased 230-caliber large artillery piece.
Aim in the direction of Fudo Port.
Such a gun can already be used as a cannon on a battleship.
It's very powerful.
Nogi Nogi received a call back from Nie Li and specially invited Nie Li to come along the river to talk to the battleship. But Nie Li, who cherished his life, perfectly refused.
No choice but to do so, Nogi Hidenori sent an ambassador from Tiaobaji to Fengtian to meet with Nie Li.
Another day later.
The negotiator of the chickens, the ambassador, came with two chickens.
When we met, we first bowed: "General Nie, I am the negotiator sent by Commander Nogi Nogi Nogi. My name is Yamaguchi Yuken. Please take care of me."
Nie Li summoned Yamaguchi Yuxian in a bunker outside the naval camp.
Looking at the respectful Yamaguchi Auriken, Nie Li chuckled and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Yamaguchi. Commander Nogi Nogi said to me before that he wanted to discuss something with me. What is it? You also saw me as a navy commander. The camp is quite busy.”
"Shall we make a long story short?"
