In the evening, Fang Zida arrived in Ji*nan and learned that Fang Zida came to Shandong. Huang Kaiyuan, as the highest general who stayed in Ji*nan, was responsible for training the new army, and led a large group of people to greet him.

"Brother Zheng Ming, I haven't seen you for many days, but I miss you so much." In more than half a year, Huang Kaiyuan became dark and thin, but he looked much more energetic.

"Brother Baochang, you have worked hard for the training of the new army. You must pay attention to your health." Fang Zida shook hands affectionately with Huang Kaiyuan, and said politely.

"Haha, it's not hard. Ziyu's main tasks are arranged by Ziyu. I just help Ziyu to do logistics, etc." Huang Kaiyuan said with a humble smile. As a military general, Huang Kaiyuan is far inferior to Wu Peifu in terms of military quality and command ability, and even Cao Kun and others cannot compare with Cao Kun. However, Huang Kaiyuan has the advantage of Huang Kaiyuan. He is a senior enough person to be able to suppress the lower level. Moreover, he is also self-aware that he can still stand on his own when doing trivial tasks. Therefore, since the Eighth Division surrendered to Fang Zida, Huang Kaiyuan has been promoted step by step in the past two years and has already taken the rank of general on his shoulders. According to Fang Zida's arrangement, when all the new army is trained and reorganized, Huang Kaiyuan will serve as the commander of the group army.

The two talked briefly on the platform, and then Fang Zida met with the officers at all levels who came to greet him under Huang Kaiyuan's introduction. Some of them were old acquaintances, most of whom were transferred from the Eighth Division, such as Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui and others. After returning from Europe, they entered the new army and now they have served as division commander. Others were staff officers transferred from the Central Military Academy. Fang Zida had also met with him before. Among the crowd, Fang Zida also met Cao Wenlian, the former deputy of the Eighth Division Company, and Zhang Xiaochuan, who had met one of them. Seeing that one of the military ranks on their shoulders was already a major, and the other was also a lieutenant.

Fang Zida walked up with a smile and said hello to Zhang Xiaochuan. Zhang Xiaochuan didn't expect that Fang Zida still remembered the name of this unknown man, and his face turned red with excitement. After asking, Fang Zida learned that in order to speed up the training of the new army, Wu Peifu specially selected some lower-level officers and veterans from the former Eighth Division to serve as instructors in the new army, and was preparing to let them serve as chief officers at all levels after the training of the new army was completed.

The station was not a good place to reminisce about the past. After saying hello to everyone, Fang Zida took the car arranged by Huang Kaiyuan to the headquarters. When he arrived at the place, Fang Zida did not rest and directly asked about the situation in Qingdao.

The content of the telegram is similar to Wu Peifu. The battle situation in Qingdao is still in the hands of China. The Second Fleet only uses naval guns to attack Qingdao Fortress, and still has no progress. The solid Qingdao Fortress is not at all damaged and is still firmly in the hands of the Zhongdao Team. Although the Japanese naval guns are powerful, there are not many ways to deal with such a situation.

On land, Wu Peifu caught the Japanese landing troops off guard and suddenly surrounded most of the 15th Division with a surprising surprise. The Japanese 15th Division, which could not break through, could only defend on the spot and waited anxiously for subsequent reinforcements to come to rescue. After the Japanese Second Fleet received the news that the 15th Division was in trouble, the fleet commander Rokuro Yashi was immediately anxious. In the case of the sea attack, the landing operations were facing annihilation. No matter what conflicts there were between the navy and the army, once the 15th Division was eliminated by the Central Team, Rokuro Yashi was only one result as the battlefield commander - acesarean section.

In order to save the 15th Division, the Yamada Rokuro stopped the unnecessary artillery battle against Qingdao in the afternoon and hurriedly dispatched all the fleets in his hands to transport the remaining army, intending to carry out another landing to send a division army to the point where he could support the troubled 15th Division.

"Now the 15th Division is a turtle in the jar? How did Brother Ziyu eat them?" After hearing the good news, Fang Zida looked much more relaxed and asked.

"Hehe. Ziyu didn't think about eating the 15th Division." Huang Kaiyuan replied with a smile.

"Why? Is it because he lacks troops? Didn't the telegram say that the 15th Division now has less than 10,000 troops?" Fang Zida was a little surprised.

Seeing Fang Zida's expression, not only Huang Kaiyuan was happy, but even Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui who were sitting aside accompanied him laughed.

"Brother Zheng Ming, Ziyu is actually not unable to eat the 15th Division, but she doesn't want to eat them." Huang Kaiyuan reminded.

"This is..." Fang Zida became more and more strange. He frowned and suddenly realized after thinking about it. He clapped his hands and praised: "I understand! What a Wu Ziyu!"

"Master, do you really understand?" Liu Zhi couldn't help but ask.

"Haha, Zi Yu's strategy is nothing more than to surround some of the support, or even use the enemy to train troops. Is that true?" Fang Zida asked with a laugh.

Liu Zhi opened his mouth and looked at each other with Huang Kaiyuan and Xiong Shihui. After a long time of long, he raised his thumbs up and praised: "Gao! Teacher is tall! General Ziyu's strategy was tall! We thought about it for a long time before we could react. Unexpectedly, the teacher could see it at a glance. Tsk tsk, the teacher is tall, it's amazing!"

Looking at Huang Kaiyuan, Liu Zhi and Xiong Shihui, they all admired each other, Fang Zida was not a fool, and they could not see that they deliberately pretended to please themselves and flatter themselves. However, they also needed someone to praise the actors. It was really good to be praised by others for a few words. Fang Zida would not be serious about such things, and immediately laughed out loud together.

As Fang Zida guessed, Wu Peifu did not launch a general attack after surrounding the 15th Division, but instead trapped the 15th Division slowly. After the 15th Division broke through but failed to start defending on the spot, Wu Peifu ordered all troops to only use the combat plan to prevent the 15th Division from breaking through, and the entire army was not allowed to attack without authorization.

In Wu Peifu's opinion, it is easy to eat the 15th Division in this situation, but once the 15th Division is gone, the Japanese only face three plans.

First: admit that the war failed and then retreated. This is not feasible. In the Fengtian battlefield, the Japanese army still took the initiative. Although the Japanese lost a 15th Division in the failure of the Qingdao landing battle, the 15th Division was only a Class B division, and it was far from being damaged, so there was basically no possibility of withdrawing troops and retreating troops and ending the war.

Second: The Second Japanese Fleet attacked the Qingdao Fortress with its naval power and re-selected the landing location. Due to the 15th Division, the Japanese would be much more cautious and learn from their mistakes. The Japanese are not fools. If they want to destroy the landing troops like encircling the 15th Division, they would probably not have such a chance again. Moreover, Japan has the advantage of a fleet attack from the sea. Although the Qingdao Fortress is strong, it cannot move like a warship after all, so it will lose dominance on the battlefield and make the situation confusing.

Third: The Japanese Second Fleet, which suffered losses in Qingdao, bypassed Qingdao and chose other locations as offensive targets. This was wasted the Qingdao Fortress, which had the greatest advantage in the Zhong** team. The Japanese Second Fleet, which had strong mobility, could attack the inland along the coastline anytime and anywhere. It was definitely not so easy for the Chinese Fleet, which lacked the navy, to keep up with the rhythm of the opponent. If the situation changes like this, it would definitely not be what the government would like to see.

It can be seen from this that retaining the 15th Division in this situation is much better than destroying the 15th Division. Leaving the 15th Division in hand, the other party will be afraid of the enemy, and even out of helplessness, they can only be led by Wu Peifu. In order to save the 15th Division, the Japanese Second Fleet and its cooperation with the army can only focus on the 15th Division and the Qingdao Fortress, thus completely solving the feasibility of the Second Fleet changing its strategic direction.

In addition, Wu Peifu has another plan. He wants to take this opportunity to train the new army. An army that has not experienced the war cannot mature. No matter how well the officers and soldiers of this army have, they cannot become a truly strong army. Since there is such a good opportunity in front of us, why not bring the new army up one after another and use the war to hone them into the army as soon as possible?

"Wu Peifu is really worthy of being a famous general!" Fang Zida sighed sincerely. Although he guessed Wu Peifu's intention, it was also based on Wu Peifu's intention. If he had asked him to choose on the battlefield, he would have been very excited and ordered the entire army to dispatch and swallow the 15th Division in one fell swoop.

"Do you have a specific plan for Ziyu?" Fang Zida asked Huang Kaiyuan.

Huang Kaiyuan nodded quickly and reported: "Brother Ziyu called after surrounding the 15th Division, and asked our new army in Jinan to go to the front line in batches based on regiments. Each regiment took turns attacking, not asking to hurt the enemy, but only asking the soldiers to familiarize themselves with the battlefield and experience the cruelty of the blood and blood of the war. As for the elite front-line troops, except for some assisting the new army, the rest are used as the general reserve team to prevent accidents."

"Okay! OK! OK! This method is quite good." Fang Zida nodded immediately. The strategy used by Wu Peifu is similar to the battle on the Laoshan front in the later years of Zhongyue. Using the war of iron and fire to improve the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the army is the fastest way to achieve results. Although the new army will inevitably suffer some losses when it is pulled up, Fang Zida can fully bear such a small loss in the current situation. So what if hundreds or thousands of people die? After a month or two, Fang Zida will have three strong troops who have experienced the training of the war. This is not better than any method?

"What about your specific arrangements?" Wu Peifu made a general arrangement for the new army's proposal to move to the front line continuously. Huang Kaiyuan and others will be responsible for the connection between the troops first and the troops later. After all, Wu Peifu cannot escape from Qing* Island and cannot cover everything, so Fang Zida asked again after considering it.

"My teacher has already got a specific plan. Please give me some advice." Xiong Shihui, who had not spoken, pointed to the map and began to talk about his arrangements. After returning after the European war test, Xiong Shihui's judgment and command ability as a commander have improved a lot. How to dispatch troops, how to marches in front and back, how to marches after the front line, how to alternate after each other, etc., Lin Lin has considered all kinds of comprehensively...)
