In the early morning of November 20, a group of Japanese Army, which was like a chicken, finally "landed successfully" at the beachhead of Maodao. Although he had just escaped from the fortress cannons and mines, he finally stepped onto the land from the ship. Most of the army soldiers were pale and weak in their legs, but after strict training, the Japanese Army's personal qualities were still good. Under the command of the division commander Mitsumon Kamio, he quickly built a preliminary position on the beachhead with a simple setting.

The 15th Division is a Class II B Division with a total of more than 24,000 officers and soldiers. In addition to some logistics and supplies, the number of people participating in this landing was 19,000. However, no one expected that these nearly 20,000 officers and soldiers would eventually land on the land for only more than 10,000, and thousands of wounded people were also included. The rest of the personnel sank into the sea with the transport ships. In other words, the 15th Division suffered half of the losses before they saw the opponent, which was extremely serious on the combat effectiveness and morale of a unit.

Generally, if a unit can still fight if it is 40% damaged, the unit will be called the elite among the elite without hesitation, and is awarded the title of "Iron Army". Now, the degree of damage of the 15th Division has been close to 50%. It is logical that the 15th Division is almost on the verge of losing its combat effectiveness. However, due to the unique tenacity of Japanese soldiers and the fanaticism of militarism, in the view of Mitsumon Kamio, his troops can still fight.

After a while, Kano Ou Kano who survived from death asked the soldiers to set up preliminary positions and arranged for the troops to rest. When they landed, they were still at night, except for the fires that were sometimes fired from the Qing* Island Fortress. The entire area was dark near Mao Island. Kano Ou Kano Ou Kano planned to rest for a night, and wait until dawn the next day to observe the terrain and then gather troops to march.

As the long dark night passed minute by minute, as the sun gradually rose in the east, the camp of the 15th Division, which had been resting for several hours, began to assemble.

Kanwei Guangchen leaned at a marching table, and on it was a military map of the Jiaozhou area. According to the plan, his 15th Division would march from Mao Island to Jiaodong northwest, and then detour from Madian, Nancun, and Lingshan areas.\\ thus cut off the connection between the Qingdao Fortress and the rear, and cooperate with the Second Fleet to attack forward and backward to capture Qingdao.

The direction of the march was confirmed on the map again. The adjutant Awakeno Mitsuko had already arrived. After packing up the things and the 15th Division started to march northwest with a corps as the vanguard, and the large army followed him. On the beach of the Maodao, Kamitsuko, there was a brigade as a supporter, leaving all the wounded. After experiencing the heavy blow last night, Kamitsuko became much more careful for safety.

In this era, the army only relied on two legs except cavalry. The first generation of tanks had just emerged on the European battlefield. As for the high-tech things like motorized forces, even European powers had never heard of them, let alone the Japanese army that were backward. I guess Kano Ou Mitsuko had never sat in a few times like cars. Of course, his 15th Division could not use these advanced equipment to march. Fortunately, the division commander's war horse sea was alive, and he was very lucky to have not been hit by the fortress cannon. Kano Ou Mitsuko didn't have to worry about rushing on the road with two short legs like ordinary soldiers. But even so, the advancement of the entire army was not much faster. From early morning to near noon, the 15th Division only advanced about ten kilometers.

"How far is Jiaodong? Where is the forward now?" Holding the telescope, Kanwei Guangchen looked towards Jiaodong. But the telescope, which was only eight times higher than the children's telescope in his hand, was not much better than the children's telescope in later generations. Even if he rode on a horse, he couldn't see clearly.

"Your Excellency, according to the itinerary, it is expected that the forward will take another hour to arrive at Jiaodong." The staff officer took the map and gestured for a while and came to the conclusion.

"Suoga, send the order to speed up the troops. Arrive to Jiaodong before 3 pm!"

"Hi!"

The order of Kanwei Guangchen was quickly conveyed. The officers and soldiers of the 15th Division swung their short legs like wheels. Nearly 10,000 people raised a large area of ​​dust like a yellow dragon, and stepped up their march towards Jiaodong.

At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the vanguard sent a liaison force to report that he was about to arrive in Jiaodong. The news of the Kanwei Guangchen was overjoyed. He had almost encountered any resistance during the march. It seemed that the Chinese had only placed their military strength at the Qing Island Fortress and ignored the rear. As long as his 15th Division accelerated and took Jiaodong before the Chinese reacted, and detoured along the northeast, they could cut off the rear of the Qing Island Fortress in one fell swoop.

Looking up at the sun, Kanou Mitsumon issued another order to speed up. Seeing that the progress was going smoothly, the officers and soldiers of the 15th Division were also extremely excited. It seemed that the shadow of the losses suffered last night had dissipated, and the soldiers who regained their spirits rushed forward one after another.

"Report to your Excellency, the forward encountered resistance from the Chinese people when approaching Jiaodong."

"Nani!" Kamio Mitsumon was stunned and quickly asked where he met the Central Team and how many people were there on the other side.

When he learned that he had encountered resistance only five kilometers away from Jiaodong, and that there were not many Chinese people who seemed to resist, the heart that had just hung up in Kamio Hiroshi was immediately let go of it.

"It must be the local armed forces in China, let the captain of Nakajima launch an offensive and eliminate it on the spot!"

"Hi!"

Seeing the contact soldiers leaving quickly, Kanwei Guangchen didn't care at all. In his opinion, there was no resistance, but something was wrong. His 15th Division rushed straight from Maodao and encountered the resistance of the Zhong* team when approaching Jiaodong. It was very normal. It was estimated that the resistance came from the local defenders in Jiaodong. Since the opponent was not large, such resistance would definitely not be able to stop his 15th Division. It was estimated that when he arrived in front, the Chinese had been wiped out by the forward.

However, Mitsumon Kamio guessed the beginning, but failed to guess the result. Half an hour later, his large army arrived at the place where the battle began. The battle between the forward and the Chinese defenders continued. Not only did his forward fail to take down the Chinese, but instead suffered some losses.

"Your Excellency, give me another chance to charge. I ask for artillery support. As long as you charge again, you will definitely be able to eliminate these Chinese people." The captain of the regiment, Yuuo Nakajima, stood in front of Mitsumon Kamio in shame. Judging from the several charges, the opponent only had his superiors, but he could not capture the enemy. Yuuo Nakajima, who lacked heavy weapons, did not have much help to take the machine gun position on the opposite side. He was so anxious that he jumped straight on his feet. Seeing that the main force finally came up, he hurriedly ran to ask Mitsumon Kamio for help.

Seeing that Yuuo Nakajima did not take down his opponent, Mitsuko Kamio was a little annoyed. However, he still forgave Yuuo Nakajima and agreed to give him another chance. And Mitsuko Kamio ordered the artillery to be pulled up to support Yuuo Nakajima's attack. Half an hour later, the ready-made artillery began to fire artillery first. After dozens of shells, Yuuo Nakajima drew out his command knife and pointed forward. Several Japanese soldiers shouted and rushed forward with rifles Ao Ao.

A gunshot rang over, and the soldiers who rushed forward were surprised to find that their opponent had fled without fighting under the attack of artillery fire. When the news reached Yuuo Nakajima, he was overjoyed and quickly brought the good news to Mitsumon Kamio. At the same time, Yuuo Nakajima commanded his troops to advance, intending to take advantage of the opportunity of the other party's escape and drive all these Chinese to Jiaodong City like a duck to take advantage of the opportunity of the other party's escape, and take down Jiaodong in one fell swoop.

Kano Mitsumon, who had broken through the opponent's defense line, was also extremely happy. He highly praised Yuo Nakajima's pursuit of victory. He ordered the main force to follow Yuo Nakajima's unit to pursue him immediately. In his opinion, the mantis arm that blocked the car was no longer there, and it was just in front of him to take down Jiaodong City.

No one expected that when the 15th Division pursued the defeated soldiers and climbed over a small hill and continued to rush forward for a while, Yuuo Nakajima's corps was suddenly hit by a fierce shelling. Dozens of shells had always appeared, falling from the sky like hail, and the group of soldiers who were chasing happily were dizzy. When Yuuo Nakajima reacted, more than a dozen machine guns spit out flames and shot at them from all directions. His soldiers were knocked down one by one like wood. If he hadn't lie in time, he would have become ghosts under the gun.

"hiss……!"

Lying on the ground, Yuuo Nakajima looked forward with his incredible eyes widened, and felt a pain in his teeth. Because he suddenly found that the Chinese position was not far ahead, and the position was obviously different from the front. It was tied with sharp thorns and pulled them into rows with wooden blocks. Behind the iron wire, there were trenches, with machine guns on both sides of each trench. There were Chinese soldiers lying in the trench, with rifles in his hands aiming at them, and there were also bursts of cannon sounds coming from behind the trench. The sharp sound cut through the sky, and the shells exploded in front of him...

"I've been fooled!"

Yuuo Nakajima was still a little smart when he was able to become the captain of the regiment. At this time, he could conclude that the Chinese defenders who had been broken ahead were simply bait. The purpose was to let the 15th Division fall into this trap. The Chinese were very cleverly set up, and it happened to be on the other side of the mountain. If he had not crossed the hill, he would never have discovered that the Chinese were waiting for them here.

"Quick! Report to the division commander and let the troops retreat!"

Yuo Nakajima hurriedly pulled a sergeant and shouted in his ear, "The terrain here is inconvenient to the large army." Once the 15th Division all squeezed over, they would suffer huge losses. They must retreat immediately before finding ways to deal with the Chinese. The news must be told to Kano O Mitsumon as soon as possible.

But it was too late, and Kanou Mitsuko was already here. When he heard the gunshots in front of him, he thought that Nakajima had already taken down Jiaodong City. Kanou Mitsuko, who was riding happily on the horse and dancing, urging the soldiers to speed up again. When his troops crossed the hill, Kanou Mitsuko was stunned by everything in front of him. He immediately reacted and was scared into a cold sweat. He pulled out his horse's head and shouted: "Turn in! Turn in now!" Welcome, your support is my greatest motivation.)
