    By the time the Japanese warships rounded the headland of Longkou Bay and began to slow down, the Shandong Border Defense Command had been able to completely determine that the landing site of the Japanese troops was Longkou Port.

    Previously, the Shandong border defense commander had also imagined that the Japanese army might adopt front and rear flanking tactics, and deployed defensive forces at various locations along the Bohai Sea coast suitable for landing, ranging from at least a battalion to as many as a regiment.  For example, Longkou Port is home to an infantry regiment of the Hubei Army's First Mixed Brigade.

    Regiment leader Sun Liangcheng's face turned pale after receiving the news. In addition to fear, it was more because the upcoming battle was too dangerous: According to the order from the headquarters, he must delay the Japanese landing as much as possible with the strength of a regiment.  .  How many Japanese soldiers are there in front of you?  That was an integrated division plus an independent fleet, at least thirty to forty thousand people!  He couldn't help but feel nervous.

    Fortunately, Shangfeng seemed to know that one infantry regiment was too weak compared to the menacing Japanese army. He clearly told him that another infantry regiment of the Hubei Army's 1st Mixed Brigade stationed in Dengzhou Fucheng would arrive at Longkou in an hour.  Bay, a tank regiment of the 47th Mixed Brigade stationed in Laizhou Fucheng will also arrive on the flank battlefield in an hour and a half. Moreover, the bombers from Rongcheng and Qingdao have all taken off and are expected to join the battlefield in an hour or two.

    Although reinforcements are rolling in, the key is how Sun Liangcheng survives the next hour!  He must rely on his weak troops to try his best to maintain the Longkou Bay defense line from being breached.  Once the defense line is breached and the Japanese independent 18th Division is fully deployed, the two regiments rushing to rescue will become a fueling tactic and be defeated by the Japanese army one by one, causing the situation to deteriorate.

    Sun Liangcheng clenched his fists and said solemnly to deputy commander Zhu Peide and chief of staff Yu Xuezhong: "Brother Yi, brother Xiaohou, just now Sun received an urgent message from the brigade headquarters, saying that the Japanese Second Fleet and the 18th Division will  We landed at Longkou Bay soon. Our reinforcements are expected to arrive in an hour. Before that, we must compress the landing Japanese troops on the beach as much as possible to ensure that the defense line is not broken. The enemy's combat power is ten times that of mine, plus  With the navy helping us, I guess we won¡¯t be able to do it if we don¡¯t fight hard this time, so I want to go to the first line of defense to supervise the battle, and at least make sure that the line of defense is not lost within 25 minutes of the start of the battle! Brother Yi is supervising the battle on the second line of defense, and on the first line of defense  After the first line of defense is breached, we must persist for at least 25 minutes. Brother Xiaohou is supervising the battle on the third line of defense. The third line of defense is our last line of defense. The construction is not perfect enough. We hope that it can support the arrival of reinforcements. I wonder if you two can  Have any objections?"

    Zhu Peide and Yu Xuezhong said at the same time: "Commander, I will go to the first line of defense to supervise the battle!"

    Sun Liangcheng shook his head and said: "The first line of defense looks dangerous, but it is actually the safest, because the enemy troops on the ship use heavy weapons and the range is too close, and the range of the light weapons is too far; the landing enemy troops are wading through the water with difficulty.  The move forward has not yet been fully launched, and there is no time to worry about resistance. It is best to deal with it. Both of you are brothers, so let¡¯s give way to the younger brother!"

    Although Sun Liangcheng said it lightly, Zhu Peide and Yu Xuezhong both knew that the first line of defense had the highest casualty rate. First, because the enemy army had just entered the battle and was at its peak of energy.  This is the truth; secondly, because the landing operation is similar to a last-ditch battle, a breakthrough must be opened as soon as possible, otherwise the hedgehogs will gather on the beach and die. This do-or-die situation can best inspire the enemy's bravery regardless of death or injury.  .  What's more, the heavy artillery of the Japanese fleet is not fun. With one shot, officers and soldiers in a football field-sized area will not be able to escape for their lives!

    Seeing Zhu Peide and Yu Xuezhong opening their mouths to speak, Sun Liangcheng's expression turned serious: "This is an order and must be implemented!"

    Yu Xuezhong had better take a step back: "Since it is an order, I can only obey it. But the soldiers are in danger and the battle is dangerous. Commander, you are related to the fighting spirit and morale of the whole regiment. I sincerely ask you to bring more people up. What's the matter?  It¡¯s also easier to respond to emergencies in a timely manner.¡±

    Sun Liangcheng waved his hand: "The Japanese army is coming this time, and the artillery fire must be extremely fierce. No matter how many people you bring up, it will not help. It will be too eye-catching and troublesome. It is better to put two or three companies on the first line of defense, and the other personnel will retreat to the second line for the time being."  The first line of defense should be replenished in time when there are heavy casualties, so as not to be swallowed up by the dumplings. On the contrary, you, Chief of Staff Xiaohou, are under the greatest pressure. The third line of defense is not very stable in the first place, and there are not many people. You must ensure that it is supported until  Reinforcements are coming. So once the war starts, you immediately organize the regiment staff, nurses, medical soldiers, cooks and other non-combatants to be ready to fill the gap at any time!"

    "Yes!" Yu Xuezhong stood at attention and replied.

    Zhu Peide advised: "Commander, if the situation is not right, you should withdraw quickly. After all, we still have a second and third line of defense. As long as the green hills remain, we will not worry about running out of firewood! In the words of Premier Sun,  It¡¯s called ¡®Losing land saves people, and both people and land will be saved; losing people and save land, will both people and land be lost¡¯.¡±Sun Liangcheng did not answer Zhu Peide, but solemnly saluted Zhu Peide and Yu Xuezhong: "You two, please leave the defense line!" Without waiting for the two to return the salute, he walked out of the regiment neatly.  Zhu Peide and Yu Xuezhong hurriedly followed out: "Captain, please take care of yourself!" Sun Liangcheng did not turn around, but he galloped away with the guards on their horses.

    At this time, standing on the beach of Longkou Bay and looking far into the distance, you can already see the white smoke rising from the chimneys of the Japanese fleet.  When Sun Liangcheng was still a stone's throw away from the first line of defense, he saw a flash of light in the sky, and a moment later a loud "pop" sound reached his ears.  The guard beside him hurriedly shouted: "Commander, hurry, hurry! Japan has launched an attack, and we must quickly enter the artillery defense fortifications!"

    Sun Liangcheng was indifferent and just kept waving his whip, because he knew that this was just the Japanese fleet calibrating the test launch, and from the whistling sound, it could be heard that the impact point was still far away from here.  If you are accidentally hit by a shell from the 203mm main gun of the cruiser Joban, you will basically not be able to escape death even if you are hiding in an anti-gun fortification, let alone in the wilderness.

    Amidst the tremors of the earth, Sun Liangcheng and his guards rolled and rolled into the trench. However, they happened to meet the first battalion commander Chen Tiaoyuan who came out for inspection and asked hurriedly: "Xue Xuan, how is the situation?"

    Chen Tiaoyuan shouted at the top of his voice: "It's okay now. The Japanese Japanese's accuracy is so bad that they basically missed the position. Just now, the third company commander reported that one of their company's anti-gun holes was hit by artillery shells.  Everyone in the squad is hiding inside and has not come out. They are digging the soil now. I don¡¯t know what the casualties are. I was about to go over and take a look. Why are you here at this time, captain? "

    "I'm here to supervise the battle!" Sun Liangcheng also shouted at the top of his voice, "You don't have to rush to check the casualties now. Hurry up and order each company and platoon to disperse. If you can't disperse, retreat quickly. Don't hide behind the artillery defense."  In the cave, the anti-gun caves are ineffective against the heavy artillery of the Japanese fleet. The Japanese soldiers are still practicing shooting. Take advantage of the opportunity to evacuate quickly and wait for them to land before they can be mobilized. Hurry up. Once they have adjusted their shooting at Zhu Yuan, then  That¡¯s trouble!¡±

    "I'll go right away!" Chen Tiaoyuan hurriedly followed the order.

    Sun Liangcheng lay in the trench and looked out with a telescope. He saw Japanese warships lined up on the sea, aiming their guns at the positions on the shore and firing recklessly, as if they were sure that the Chinese army would not counterattack the artillery fire.  Sun Liangcheng secretly resented: "Where is our navy? If Yuan Shikai had handed over the army and the country to Mr. Sun, why would we now allow the Japanese fleet to cause trouble on the Chinese sea? But don't be too arrogant, little Japan.  , I¡¯ll make sure you have a good drink when the Air Force bombers arrive!¡±

    After all, the Japanese navy was experienced in the battlefield and quickly adjusted its shooting. The accuracy of the artillery shells was obviously improved by several levels. In an instant, artillery shells of various calibers hit everyone. Sun Liangcheng saw with his own eyes the barbed wire fences and obstacles on the beach.  Objects were blown up into the sky, and mines laid were detonated from time to time.  The trenches were the top priority of artillery fire. Raindrop bombs blew the trenches into pieces, and the broken limbs of officers and soldiers were scattered everywhere. The screams of the injured soldiers almost drowned out the rumbling sound of the artillery.

    Sun Liangcheng feels that now is the time for him to play his role!  He walked forward along the trench, ready to comfort the frightened soldiers.  Passing by the guard, he was about to ask him to follow him, but with a slight push, the guard fell down.  It turned out that this young man was shocked to death by the continuous shelling!  Sun Liangcheng had no time to feel sad and pity. He just covered his eyes with anger and continued to move forward. Along the way, he kept comforting the frightened soldiers, encouraging the wounded who were shot and bleeding, and scolding the bewildered squad and platoon leaders.  , asking everyone to stay calm and be ready to fight against the landing Japanese troops at any time.

    In the roar of earth-shaking explosions, the officers and soldiers felt that their days were like years, but Sun Liangcheng felt that time was flying fast, because in his opinion, for every minute longer the bombardment lasted, his soldiers would have one minute less time to fight the swarming Japanese troops.  The probability of completing the task will also increase by one point.

    About fifteen minutes later, the heavy artillery group began to gradually extend in depth, and the Japanese landing ships began to gradually approach the coast.  Sun Liangcheng had no scruples at this time and ordered all the heavy firepower in the defensive position to target the landing ship and fire.  Although Sun Yuanqi owns China's two major arsenals and has never been stingy with equipment and troops, each battalion only has so many people. The battalion's heavy firepower only has 8 Maxim heavy machine guns, 2 81mm medium mortars and 4 60mm light mortars.  It's just a mortar. It's a drop in the bucket for the Japanese troops who are attacking like locusts. At most, it can only cause them a little trouble!

    Sun Liangcheng put down the telescope in his hand, picked up a 1911 medium-sized rifle belonging to a fallen soldier, and said silently in his heart: Since you are eager to die, then come here!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
