Zhang Xuan smiled and drank a glass of wine, "It's not Guan Gong who killed Hua Xiong, don't worry, the teacher will be successful if he doesn't succeed."

Xuan Jianzhang didn't know why, but this time he had a bad premonition. It was because the Japanese showed that the combat command level was too clever.

The Chinese army had the habit of forming officer groups. Generally, the officers at the first level of the regiment, that is, officers at the level of deputy platoon leaders of each platoon.

Zhang Xuan led more than 100 people to break through two lines of defense in a row and directly hit outside the north gate of Yucheng.

At this time, more than 8,000 defenders in the city in Shan County were retreating halfway when they heard the Chinese army rushing to the north gate.

Youpeng in Shanxian cursed, "Here you come so quickly? You started to attack the city?"

After the Meiji Restoration in Yama Prefecture, Atsutomo went to Europe, Britain, France, Germany and other countries to inspect military affairs.

After returning to the country, he served as the Young Master of the Ministry of War, Dafu, Dafu, the 6th Army, the 6th Army Secretary, the Joining Army, the Chief of Staff, the Minister of the Interior, and the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce.

Until he became the first and most powerful figure in the military.

He has long been committed to the construction and transformation of the 6th Army of Japan in modern times.

The "Letter of Warnings for the Soldiers" was published in 1878, emphasizing courage, loyalty and obedience to the old virtues of the Emperor, and opposing democratic and liberal tendencies.

He was the advocate and craftsman of the "Recruitment Order". He presided over the transformation of the Taiwan-Taiwan into a division-team system, rectifying the educational institutions of the 6th Army, and establishing the Military Medical Office, laying the ideological and organizational foundation for the establishment of the 6th Army in modern times.

Gradually building the Japanese army into a modern bourgeois army played an important role.

Therefore, it is known as the "father of the 6th Army of Japan in modern times".

At the same time, he also implemented the policy of "strengthening troops and enriching the country" politically through two cabinet formations, further broadening the space for the formation and development of Japanese militarism.

Although his ruling skills are not as scheming as Hirofun Ito, he is not a mediocre person.

He is calm and a little nervous, and he is cautious and decisive in his work.

No matter what, once you make up your mind, do everything to the end.

When I heard a question from my friend in Shan County, the flag bearer around me hurriedly lit the flag and asked.

Sentinels on the city wall answered in flags.

"There are only more than one hundred people, and they are small groups of Chinese troops." The guards reported.

Youpeng in Shanxian was furious, "I bullyed too much. A small army of more than 100 Chinese troops dared to attack the city. People came, summoned the 14th regiment and called me back."

There were more than 1,000 Japanese troops, ten times the strength of the Chinese military officers' regiment. Yutoto of Yama County wanted to eat the Chinese military officers' regiment that rushed into the north gate in one bite.

The two sides started a rare encounter on the narrow Yucheng wall.

The Japanese relied on the large number of people to attack Zhang Xuan crazy. Zhang Xuan led more than 100 people from the officers' regiment to build a row of small fortifications on the spot, hiding behind the corpses, shooting.

The Japanese samurai swords were simply a decoration in front of the 1878 rifle of the president of the Chinese Army, falling down in rows.

Youpeng of Shanxian County was anxious, "Blast the shell and push two cannons over."

The Japanese guns were all light mountain cannons, two large wheels, and small cannons less than 200 kilograms.

"It's too late, the cannons have been pulled out of the city." A general next to him reminded.

Youpeng in Shan County was sweating profusely, knowing that the Chinese army would be able to pull up at any time at this time.

In fact, when Zhang Xuan and others climbed to the top of the city, they had already radioed the movements of the Japanese defending troops to Xuan Jianzhang. Xuan Jianzhang learned that the Japanese were going to run away and had ordered the entire line to attack the city.

Youpeng in Shan County cursed anxiously: "More than a thousand people, why can't even more than a hundred people be defeated? Tell them that they must take down the small army of the Chinese army."

At the top of the city dozens of meters, both sides were like piles of dead bodies, and people were constantly dying. The Chinese army was too strong. The Japanese rushed over with their necklines open, one by one and one to die. The Chinese soldiers were completely afraid. The veterans rolled out of the fire in their blood were not a joke. The Japanese were scared first. More than a thousand people died in less than ten minutes, and they were beaten by the Chinese army to fight back.

The angry ghost in Shanxian roared, "Go to another group! Bastard!"

Diddou!

The first regiment of the First Brigade of the First Field Division of the Chinese Army, three battalions launched a full-on attack and attacked Yucheng.

When Zhang Xuan saw the reinforcements arrived, he shouted overjoyed, "Trumpeter, we will also blew the charge and kill all the Japanese!"

Diddou!

Across the city, there are Chinese army charges everywhere!

"Why did the Chinese army come so quickly?" Yutoto of Shanxian was so scared that he called people to retreat quickly. During the retreat, he was chased by the Chinese army and killed more than a thousand people. The Chinese army won a small victory and the Japanese were defeated, ending the battle in Yucheng.

Kanetaro, Kawakami Kawakami Kawakita, Otago Gentaro and other troops outside the city came to pick them up. Because they were too close to the Japanese stronghold outside the city, Xuan Jianzhang did not order the pursuit, and it was already very good that he could successfully capture Uchihara.

Moreover, there is another reason, that is, before Yama Prefecture Aritomo burned several grain warehouses in Yucheng City that were hoarding grain in Japan!

The Chinese army is about to rush to put out the fire.

Xuan Jianzhang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he entered Yucheng. He put his waist on his back and looked at the quaint Japanese houses, but these houses were burning.

"The master's seat is the Japanese who even burn their own houses, they are really not human." Chief of Staff said angrily.

"A very terrible nation, a nation that does not compromise its means, I have never seen anyone treat their people like this! They are even more terrifying than the Tsarist Russians." Xuan Jianzhang's eyes were filled with stars, not tears, but the light of desire to fight when he met a strong opponent.

"It is true that the Russians are at least more caring for the people than they do. However, when we were in Siberia, we met the same people who came from Europe. Only the local Belarusian army can protect the people." The Chief of Staff smiled.

"Teacher's Seat." Zhang Xuan came down from the city wall and gave Xuan Jianzhang a standard military salute.

Zhang Xuan laughed and said, "I'm pretty fucking."

"What should be done, when little Japanese meets our Huajun, it's tofu." Zhang Xuan smiled.

"No, you can't underestimate the enemy." Xuan Jianzhang's expression turned solemn again after relaxing. "In the current situation, after the Japanese retreated, they did not retreat on a large scale, and they were still confronting my first regiment near Yucheng. What does this mean? It means that they were waiting until winter and wanted to start a tug-of-war with us when the Chinese army lost supplies!"

"What should I do?" Chief of Staff was shocked.

"We need to speed up the pace. Since the previous preset plan is to guide the enemy to fight with Kumamoto as the core, if the Japanese do not take the bait, we must change the plan and go to them to fight with less, fight with more, fight with faster, and change the strategy and tactics." Xuan Jianzhang said unswervingly that after nearly six years of war tempering, Xuan Jianzhang has grown into a very mature commander.

"Yes." A group of Chinese military officers at the city gate also saluted a standard military salute.

The Chinese army was actively mobilizing, and Emperor Meiji was in a hurry to go around and arrived in Kyoto in person. The Japanese capital had already been placed in Tokyo, but their information system was still old-fashioned. It was impossible to adapt to the needs of war, so they could only temporarily move the Japanese capital back to Kyoto.

"Let the two armies of Aritoto Yama Prefecture and Katsutaro join forces to encircle them, and they want to find the Chinese army to fight to the death, pushing and pushing again and again. All the people heard was the news of our government's retreat. If this continues, it will make the people feel disappointed!" Emperor Meiji choked up.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away." Prince Chihitomiya Arisugawa nodded, "However, Yuto Yama Prefecture reported to me that he meant to wait until winter to use the difficulties of supply in the Chinese army, and to use human resources as a consumption of the Chinese army."

"No, this set doesn't work. China now has a population of 500,000 or 600,000 people on Kyushu Island. We can consume it, and they can consume it. Moreover, I heard that they have recently transported a large number of military supplies and food, and the problem of wintering is not big! We want the British and French people to see the strength of our Japanese army. The attitudes of Britain and France are crucial to us. This is not only military, but also political!" Emperor Meiji, who had been sucked in opium, has regained his fighting spirit and wisdom in the past.

Hirobuki Ito also said: "Yes, retreating is not a solution. Our Japan is small, especially Kyushu Island, which is the main battlefield. It is so big in total that it cannot catch up with a region of China. If you retreat, don't say that the people cannot accept it. Kyushu Island does not have a strategic depth for Yama Prefecture to make a fuss."

Emperor Meiji was overjoyed when he heard Ito Hirofumi agreeing with his opinion, and his eyes lit up: "Ito Hirofumi said it well, go and arrange it."

Prince Chihitomiya Arisugawa nodded and said, "Okay."

Akito Yama Prefecture, commander-in-chief of the Japanese army outside Uchi, received the order written by the emperor himself, and put down the document in pain, sighed: "The Emperor ordered us to fight the Chinese army to decisively, but if it was to fight head-on, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg!"

Kanetaro's eyes turned, "General, why not, let's change the direction of the attack. The Chinese army now has a regiment in Uchi. It is reported that Xuan Jianzhang is also in Uchi. We should attack Kurume first and attack reversely so that the Chinese army cannot take care of each other. At the same time, we can also cut off the connection between Fukuoka, Saga and Sasebo, so that we can regain the initiative and mobilize the Chinese army."

Youpeng of Shanxian took a few steps back and forth, "I've thought about what you said, but have you thought about it? If we take the initiative to attack the city and cannot successfully take it down, then Xuan Jianzhang will be blocked from behind. At that time, we may be trapped in the anti-encirclement. You should know the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, right?"

"I think the general is too conservative. The key is to show our momentum. Don't think about the victory or defeat first. The enemy has already hit our territory and will serve the country even if we die." Kanetaro said loudly.

The generals were excited by Katsutaro's guidance and bowed to fight.

Yama Prefecture Aritomo nodded, "Since everyone thinks that Kitaro's opinion is correct, let's do it like this. The army is ready to set off, and I will report to the Emperor immediately our attack direction."

"Yes! General." The Japanese generals were overjoyed.

As soon as the Japanese army started to move, Xuan Jianzhang immediately obtained information. The Chinese army had a special reconnaissance force to follow the Japanese army's large forces and radio stations. It was equivalent to the Japanese's every move under the noses of the Chinese army, especially fighting on plains and fighting tough battles between cities. This is what the Chinese army likes the most because the Chinese army has heavy firearms!

What Xuan Jianzhang was actually most afraid of was that Ai Peng of Shan County would break up the whole body and disperse tens of thousands of Japanese troops. He relied on various mountainous areas and relied on local warfare, and had the advantage of the support of the people. He fought with the Chinese army in circles and kept fighting. This was unsolvable. It was not easy to take down an enemy country's area.

Now, the strong fighting spirit of the Japanese is in line with Xuan Jianzhang's thoughts.

"Secretary, should we rush out now and bite the Japanese's tail? Hold them down and prevent them from attacking Kurume? There, we only have one security battalion and cannot resist the Japanese's army of tens of thousands." Chief of staff reminded.

Xuan Jianzhang waved his hand, "Don't worry, so what about tens of thousands of troops? They have no faith, they are just a simple Bushido spirit, too weak. I just want to let them concentrate in Kurume, and we will have a counter-encirclement."
