The news of the landing of the Japanese Second Fleet's high-speed transport ship reached Qing* Island. After hearing this, Wu Peifu just smiled slightly and went downstairs to inspect the fortress position without saying anything. The entire Jiaozhou Bay was a little bigger. With Wu Peifu's military command ability and the fierce firepower of the Qing* Island Fortress blockade, no matter how fast the Japanese high-speed transport ships were, how could they rush in without any damage? The Japanese thought they had found a solution, but in fact, if Wu Peifu had not asked the fortress artillery to release them a yard, even if the Japanese transport ships drove faster, they would have to eat a few shells.

Wu Peifu never thought of trapping the 15th Division in Jiaodong to death from the beginning to attract the attention of the Japanese, so as to gain the initiative in the war. If the 15th Division was forced to go to the forefront, whether it was "breaking jade" or surrender, these two results were not good for the entire battle situation.

Once the 15th Division disappears, the Japanese Second Fleet will no longer have any worries, and both sides will return to the situation when the war begins. One side of China will defend the Qingdao Fortress to the death, letting the opponent gallop on the sea, fighting as much as you want, and leaving as you want. This is not the situation Wu Peifu wants to see. Only by firmly holding on to the 15th Division, using it as a bargaining chip, and forcing the Eighth Dynasty Liulang to continuously use oil-adding tactics to put troops into Jiaodong is the best strategy.

For this reason, Wu Peifu decided to lead the snake out of the hole after a brief consideration. He borrowed the 15th Division as bait to hold the opponent's nose and carried out the war according to his idea. Even if the opponent's commander, Ryuro Yamada, did not do this, Wu Peifu would find a way to let him do this. However, what surprised Wu Peifu was that there seemed to be "smart people" among the Japanese. They actually used small and medium-sized fast transport ships to "break through" the Haikou defense line for the second time. Since that was the case, Wu Peifu temporarily dispelled the plan to kill several large transport ships if they were not good enough and gave the Japanese a reminder. Since the Japanese were doing it according to their own ideas, he, as a director, cooperated with him.

Perhaps it was because the Eighth-Day Rokuro, as a naval general, was not familiar with the army's war style. Or perhaps it was because the Second Fleet was a little impatient to rescue the 15th Division, and even looked down on the Chinese who had been defeated by Japan, and although Wu Peifu's plan was temporarily planned, it was rare to have such an opponent to cooperate. At this point, the battle situation in Qingdao can be said to have changed its position. While the Second Fleet was complacent for the successful landing of the transport ships, they had fallen into the trap without realizing it.

Compared with Wu Peifu, who was smiling and confident in winning, Zhang Zuolin from Fengtian was not so relaxed.

The Buyunshan front line has been extremely fierce since the war started in the afternoon. After the Japanese took the first line of defense, they pushed their troops to the Buyunshan area in just one day, and the 10th Division of Yamaguchi's Satoshi launched a fierce attack on the Buyunshan defense line as the main force.

Various types of cannons with sharp whistling sounds bombarded the Buyun Mountain defense line into a sea of ​​fire. Then, the Japanese soldiers holding rifles were as excited as if they were injected with chicken blood, trying to kill the entire Buyun Mountain in one breath like annihilated the 54th Division. But what disappointed them was that the Zhong** team, which was ready this time, was not as unbearable as the day before yesterday. Although the fierce artillery fire caused losses to the Chinese, the loss was far from "huge". Although the rebuilt defense line was not solid, it gave the soldiers a place to avoid artillery fire. In addition to the advance reminder and arrangements of Sun Liechen. Except for dozens of unlucky guys who were directly hit by artillery fire in the trenches, the Zhong** team did not hurt the shelling, and the casualties they suffered were far within a bearable range for the entire army.

When the excited Japanese soldiers rushed to the front of the position with rifles, they were stunned. Unlike the first line of defense, the front of the Buyunshan position was densely pulled by barbed wire from somewhere. Although some places were blown up by artillery fire, the messy barbed wire still stood on their way forward.

"Run over? This thing seems to hurt when you pierce your body... Go back? It's impossible! The Imperial Japanese Army can only move forward and forward! Or ask the engineers behind to come up first. Use pliers to clean up these blocking rags before charging? Or...."

The Japanese soldiers who rushed to the barbed wire unnaturally slowed down, rolled their eyes and thought about what to do. At this moment, the Chinese team opposite did not give them time to sit down and think carefully. With a command, the machine gun firepower net that had been arranged for a long time came from all directions like water splashing. The Chinese soldiers in the trench, who were shocked by cannons, also poked their heads out of the inside with rifles and pulled the trigger one by one at the silly Japanese.

A burst of gunfire sounded suddenly, and the Japanese soldiers rushing to the front row immediately fell down one by one.

"Pig thrust! Pig thrust!"

This situation made the Japanese soldiers who were not expected suddenly panic. Some people subconsciously retreated, some people immediately lay on the ground for cover, some brave guys were red in their eyes and wanted to continue charging forward. Some at a loss stood there on the spot, not knowing how to make a decision for a while. At this time, a lower-level battlefield commander saw that the situation was wrong, quickly waved his command knife and shouted loudly, and led the way forward with a dozen Japanese soldiers to continue charging.

"Half-year!"

The 10th Division is worthy of being an elite unit of the Japanese army. Its soldiers have the highest combat effectiveness. After a brief panic, the soldiers turned forward with the shouting lower battlefield commander, gritting their teeth and continuing to charge. In the eyes of these fanatical war machines, it seemed that the barbed wire in front of them was just a small stumbling block. With the invincible bravery of the Japanese soldiers, it was not afraid at all.

After all, flesh and blood cannot compete with steel. Although this barbed wire can't be considered steel, no matter how material it is, it can be considered iron. The battlefield commander led the soldiers to the barbed wire and found that it was not easy to move the barbed wire or rush over directly, or to break out a bloody road that can reach the other side. Perhaps, if there was no team opposite, it would be possible to rush over, but in the battlefield, such an obstacle that seems not too big a problem, made the Japanese side bump into an unsurpassable city wall.

The Japanese soldiers were blocked by the barbed wire and "entangled" by the barbed wire, and the brave lower-level battlefield commander raised his command knife and slashed the barbed wire with just a few cuts, and was swept by the machine gun. He stared at the godless eyes and waved his hands in the air with weak hands, and fell straight on the barbed wire like a piece of wood.

Nearly a hundred people fell down in front of the barbed wire. No matter how frenzied the Japanese soldiers could not stand the fate of being a target of guns. I don’t know who took the lead first, the charge Japanese soldiers completely lost the courage to continue moving forward, turned around and ran back, and even a few soldiers tried to stop them.

The attacking Japanese army retreated like a tide, leaving more than a hundred corpses in front of the position. The cheers of the top people on the Buyun Mountain position were heard, and they have been suppressed and beaten since the war started. Not only did they lose the first line of defense, but even the 54th Division was almost completely wiped out. Now, they finally won a victory at the lowest price. Although this victory is nothing compared to the failure of the 54th Division, for the Chinese side, both the commander and the soldiers at the bottom gave them hope to defend the defense line.

Unlike the cheering Chinese team, Katsu Yamaguchi, the commander of the 10th Division who failed to attack, was immediately furious and destroyed the entire 54th Division. How many people had his 10th Division killed? But now there were so many casualties in just one charge, and he escaped without even rushing in front of his opponent. This made Katsu Yamaguchi, who claimed to be a powerful general, furious.

Of course, Yamaguchi Katsu not only has the ability to be the commander of the lieutenant general division. He also has some tricks. Zhu Tu, who is not afraid of death, is a tradition of the Japanese army. However, it is also necessary for a senior general to understand the failure. He asked about the situation of the other party's position with a cold face. After learning about it, Yamaguchi Katsu also felt that the situation was a bit tricky, but in his opinion, these difficulties were only a little difficult at most. No matter what tricks the Chinese people played, they still could not stop his 10th Division.

After making a re-adjustment, Yamaguchi Katsu asked the artillery to continue bombing the Buyunshan defense line and asked to focus on bombing the front of the position, intending to use artillery to knock out part of the wire mesh that blocked the 10th Division. At the same time, Yamaguchi Katsu summoned the corps commander of the Engineering Corps and gave a few instructions in his ear. The Engineering Corps captain hurriedly nodded and prepared. After an hour, when the artillery fire gradually weakened, the engineers rushed to report that they were ready.

"You! Take a brigade, cooperate with the engineers, and rush up!" Yamaguchi Katsuki pointed at a captain and ordered. The captain named stood at the right moment without hesitation, turned around and set off with the people.

While the shelling weakened, Sun Liechen in the trench immediately knew that the Japanese's second attack was about to begin. He hurriedly jogged out of the shelter and leaned on the side of the trench, raised his telescope and stared at the position.

"Brother Sun, can't the little Japanese boy have suffered a great loss and remember?" Zhang Zuoxiang rushed over beside him, holding a telescope and looking ahead, asking Sun Liechen.

"I don't know, Brother Fu Chen, the Japanese are really hard to figure out. Do they think this barbed wire can be broken by a few cannons? Look, these messy barbed wires are so easy to come by?" Sun Liechen said with a finger in front.

Zhang Zuoxiang nodded. Although the Japanese were in great flames, the damage to the barbed wire was not serious. Even if it was damaged, the layers of layers could still stop the Japanese. He didn't believe that the Japanese could come over unless they could fly.
