(Please remember)

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The German-Russian battlefield, this area with a radius of dozens of kilometers was covered with dense trenches, traffic trenches, barbed wire, machine gun firepower nets... The Eastern Front troops of the Allies led by the German army and the Tsarist Russian army had been stalemate here for several months. As the war continued, the German army, which was unstoppable in the early stage, finally stopped moving forward, and the Tsarist Russian army retreated step by step, barely blocked the German fierce offensive on the basis of consuming countless cannon fodder, and the two sides of the war entered a long positional war. ..et/ ..et/

It was eight o'clock in the morning. As the hour hand on the pocket watch arrived accurately, the German artillery position began another day of shelling. The deafening sound of artillery and the flames that exploded everywhere on the Russian positions in the distance made everyone feel the power and power of the Krupp heavy artillery.

"These German guys are really rich. I don't feel sorry for shooting so many shells every day!" Liu Zhi was holding a lunch box in his hand at an observation station several miles away from the frontier. He didn't care about the lively fire outside. He drank red vegetable soup with fun, and chatted with Xiong Shihui, who was having breakfast.

Nodded silently, Xiong Shihui chewed the bread in his hand expressionlessly. Since he arrived at the front battlefield, such shelling has become commonplace. The members of the China National Observatory Team have gone from being shocked to being calm later to being numb now. They have become commonplace. Since the war entered the position war, both Germany and Russia seemed to have made an appointment. The German army launched three times a day on the Tsarist Russian positions for 30 minutes.

The Tsarist Russian side also bombarded the German positions at 8:30 am, 2:30 pm and 7:30 pm. Of course, compared with the wealthy German army, the Tsarist Russian shelling time was much shorter, only about ten minutes, and the coverage rate of the shelling was much weaker. But this also made the poor Chinese people who were used to being poor at first. You must know that it was such a strong bombardment. It was unprecedented in the history of the Chinese war.

"If you want to say that the Russians on the other side are very stubborn, they lost nearly 30,000 people a while ago. They are still holding on to the position. I really underestimated them before." After drinking all the soup in three or five mouthfuls, Liu Zhi reached out and wiped his mouth, saying with some gloating pleasure.

Although the China-Australia Observation Group entered the country from Tsarist Russia and Tsar Nicholas II gave high treatment to the China-Australia Observation Group, which he tried hard to win, from the perspective of the Chinese people, Tsarist Russia, which peeked at China and cut off its territory from China repeatedly, has never been a good thing. Although the members of the observation group appeared on the battlefield as a neutral country and should not have a biased vision, from the perspective of feelings, the Chinese-Australia Observation Group in the observation group would rather see Tsarist Russia suffer losses than see Germany's failure. Just as not long ago, Germany launched a carefully prepared assault on the Eastern Front, trying to break the current stalemate between the two sides and break through the opponent's defense line. Although the battle was ultimately failed to achieve the expected goal due to the desperate resistance of the Tsarist Russian army, the Tsarist Russian army lost tens of thousands of people in this battle, and the German frontier position pushed forward about a kilometer.

"Don't underestimate these old men. It's also a skill to be able to fight with the Germans like this." Although Xiong Shihui had no good feelings for Tsarist Russia, he couldn't help but admire the resilience of the Tsarist Russian army from a military perspective. If a country had changed to such a strong offensive and suffered such huge losses in Germany, the front-line army would have collapsed long ago. The Tsarist Russian army on the opposite side had almost been defeated repeatedly, but they just defended their positions and refused to give up in an inch of land, which made the German army with military advantage chew hard bones in an extremely difficult manner. Every time they pushed forward one meter, they would have to pay a huge price.

From the news from colleagues from the Tsarist Russian position in the China-** Observation Group, the Tsarist Russian army almost changed positions with human lives. As long as a soldier fell in front, three or even more soldiers would immediately fill it up from the back. Tsar Nicholas II has conducted the second national mobilization, and has been working hard to form troops in the rear. Then he pulled these troops to the front line and filled them into this endless meat mixer. How could this be a war? In the eyes of the Chinese people, these Russians are all crazy people, and they don’t treat their lives as human lives.

"Speaking of all, the Germans are too rigid in the war. We have been here for a while, but it seems that in addition to the highlights of the last assault, the battle was really depressing. Every day, you don't have a few shots first and then I will also shoot a few shots, or they just use machines to sweep each other in a position, and they can learn to change the fool." Liu Zhi's words seemed to have a bit of a sense of regret. In his heart, he wanted the Germans to beat Tsarist Russia to the point of being beaten up, attacking St. Petersburg in two seconds, and capturing Nicole alive.

La II. In fact, as a soldier, he also understood that it was not that the Germans had poor command level. Whether it was a commander or a basic soldier, the quality of the German team was not comparable to that of ordinary countries, not to mention the Chinese National Welfare Force that had just been established. The war reached this point, no matter how good the tactics were, it could not be used. It was like two boxers who had been exhausted in the boxing world. All skills and tricks were useless. They could only rely on instinct to grit their teeth and fight to the end, and see who could not stand until they fell to the ground.

Xiong Shihui just smiled at Liu Zhi's view. As an old classmate and partner, Xiong Shihui knew exactly what Liu Zhi was thinking. However, when the Germans were rigid in war, Xiong Shihui couldn't help but smile. Because one night not long ago, when the Tsarist Russian artillery position on the opposite side had fired artillery, the Germans entered the positions one after another as usual and were preparing to hold trenches, but unexpectedly, the Tsarist Russian artillery suddenly fired several more shots, killing several unlucky men from the German army. At this moment, the German commander was very angry and immediately sent a liaison officer to negotiate on the other side, accusing the Tsarist Russian side of not following the default rules of the battlefield. It was obvious that the shelling time was up, why did he still fire a sudden shot?

This incident made the members of the China National Observatory Team laugh, and even the leader Wu Peifu was so happy. In the eyes of the China National People, war is to win the war by any means. What are the rules and irregularities in the war between the two sides? In the history of wars over thousands of years, China won the more with fewer ones, surprisingly, and used all kinds of conspiracies and tricks. If they fought like the Germans in a regular manner, the famous generals and coaches in history would have long lost a lot.

After chatting for a while, the sound of German shelling gradually faded. Seeing that it was almost eight:30, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui entered the lower level of the bunker, because the next one was the shelling from Tsarist Russia. For safety, it would be better to hide first.

As usual, the Russian artillery bombed the German positions. After the sound of artillery on the opposite side stopped, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui returned to the first floor, scooped up the telescope to observe the situation on the front line, and made detailed war records.

The dull morning gradually passed like this. As noon approached, just as Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui were about to prepare lunch, a German sergeant suddenly came to their observation room and brought an order.

"General Ziyu asked us to go back to the rear immediately?" Looking at this order, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui were a little surprised. Logically, they had to stay here for a full week before they left, but it was only four days since we arrived at this observation center. The time was not yet here. What was Wu Peifu so anxious to find them?

In stiff German, he asked the sergeant if something had happened, but the German sergeant who was instructed shook his head and said that he was not clear about the situation. Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui, who were confused, were afraid that Wu Peifu would have something urgent to ask them for, could only pack up their things quickly and evacuated the German sergeant from the observation center.

In the evening, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui came to a small town fifty kilometers away from the front line. This was the temporary garrison of the China National Observatory Mission. When they arrived, they were surprised to find that not only the two of them, but also the observers scattered in several other areas of the German army rushed back. Everyone greeted each other and asked curiously what was going on.

"Brother Jingfu, Brother Tianyi, you two are the highest military ranks among the observers except the regiment commander and deputy regiment commander. Don't you know why General Ziyu called us here?" A lieutenant observer sent a few cigarettes attentively, scratched a match to help light it, and asked curiously.

"How can we know? As soon as we received the order, we rushed back. Tianyi and I didn't even have time to eat lunch." Liu Zhi took a sip of cigarettes, touched his empty belly, shook his head, and asked the lieutenant if he had any food on him. He would make some to cushion first.

Finally, I found the red sausage and chewed half of Xiong Shihui. At this time, the last few observers had just arrived. Look at the people present, all the military observers from the Allies were here.

Everyone was guessing the reason why Wu Peifu suddenly gave the order to gather. Soon, Wu Peifu came back from the entrance of the town. In a blink of an eye, he arrived in front of everyone, jumped off his horse and threw the reins at a German soldier, and glanced at the crowd.

"All have arrived, come here." After saying a light sentence, Wu Peifu walked into the house with great strides. Everyone hurriedly followed and entered the house together.

Close the door and wait for everyone to sit down one after another. After Wu Peifu confirmed again that everyone was here, he spoke: "Everyone, accept the central government's order, our military observation team will stop its military observation work in Europe from now on. Everyone prepare and set off to return home tomorrow."

"What!"

"What's going on?"

"I left before the battle was over? Didn't I say I had to go to the Western Front to take a look?"

"Yes! Aren't we going to the Western Front?"

For a moment, everyone was puzzled by the order and asked questions to each other. Looking at the scene of turbulence, Wu Peifu was immediately displeased. The horse whip in his hand hit the table, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"Soldiers! It is the duty of obeying orders!" Wu Peifu said majesticly: "This is an order issued by the Central Committee, the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff. As for why you don't need to know, do you understand?"

"I understand!" Everyone stood up at the same time and replied loudly. If you like this work, you are welcome to Qidian (s h u h a i g e.) vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
