More than 20,000 Liaodong Army, plus cannon supplies, had a marching queue that could not forget the border at first sight, and was arranged for seven or eight kilometers.

After a four-hour marching, more than 20,000 people began to stop for lunch and replenish their energy.

At this time, the latest news about the Fengcheng defenders had been sent to Yang Xingguo by the Special Forces Detachment.

After reading the information, Yang Xingguo immediately summoned the three division commanders to assign combat missions.

"According to the special operations detachment investigation, the Japanese army strengthened the garrison in Fengcheng a month ago..."

"Now, there is a total of one infantry corps, one baggage corps, and one field artillery brigade in Fengcheng, with a total of more than 5,000 people..."

"My idea is to gather heavy troops to launch an attack on Fengcheng, which will give the Fengcheng defenders an illusion that our main force is in Fengcheng, and Fengcheng is in danger and may be broken at any time."

"After just a surprise, after receiving the news that Fengcheng was attacked and in danger, the two main divisions in Liaoyang had just arrived, and they would definitely rush to reinforce Fengcheng..."

What we need to do is to find a way to ambush them on the way to reinforce the two Japanese divisions, kill and injure their troops as much as possible, and reduce the huge pressure we may face in the decisive battle!"

Seeing that the three people showed a look of anticipation and serious expression on their faces, they looked at themselves with hot eyes. Yang Xingguo ordered decisively.

"Team Commander Wang, your first division has two regiments left. I will give you all the three divisions' mountain artillery and the heavy artillery battalion. You will attack Fengcheng with illness. The entire attack must be more than 20,000 people, so that the Fengcheng defenders feel scared..."

Zhang Hu's eyes lit up and he replied loudly: "Please rest assured, the first division guarantees the task..."

Yang Xingguo nodded, immediately turned his gaze to Zhao Zhigang and Zhou Qiangsheng, and continued to order.

"Team Commander Zhou, Commander Zhao, you two divisions acted with me... After dark, they secretly lurked to the Japanese army from Liaoyang to Fengcheng. Fighting fighter jets, fighting one or two ambushes of Japanese reinforcements..."

"In addition, except for two squadrons of the Special Effects Detachment, they have already found ways to sneak into Fengcheng and wait for orders. They have taken the outside of Fengcheng by attacking inside and outside. The remaining brigade has already sneaked into Liaoyang and stared at the two main divisions that the Japanese army had just transferred from the country."

"So, from now on, every move of these two divisions cannot escape my eyes... As long as we wait patiently, there will definitely be a fighter plane..."

At six o'clock that night, Zhang Hu, who had been rushing for a day, finally saw the city walls looming in Fengcheng.

After taking a deep breath, he ordered to several regiment battalion commanders: "Time is limited, so we can only fight and rest while having dinner. Tell your brothers that we will work hard tonight..."

"The Second Regiment's First Battalion, Second Battalion, bring a field artillery battalion, Lao Li, you can command it. Go around to the east of Fengcheng to launch an attack. After the attack begins, give me a little more momentum and make the two main groups stand out."

"The Third Regiment, the Second Battalion, the regiment's direct troops, bring a field artillery battalion, Lao Luo, you can command, go around the south gate of Fengcheng to launch an attack, and also show me the posture of two main regiments..."

"I command all other troops, launch an attack from Ximen, and strike a main division..."

"It's six o'clock now. At eight o'clock in the evening, the attack will be launched on time... and now start the action."

Under the cover of night, the Japanese troops defending Fengcheng did not notice that the danger was approaching.

Until more than 100 field cannons brought by Zhang Hu, the harsh whistling sound of breaking through the air reached the ears of every Japanese army in Fengcheng.

The Japanese army, who had already started to rest, realized that they were attacked. Then, they fell into chaos like chaos and prepared to fight.

The captain of the Japanese Infantry Regiment, who was defending Fengcheng, was undoubtedly the best commander of the Japanese army in Fengcheng.

When he hurried into the command center in his military coat, the Liaodong army's artillery fire strike on Fengcheng had lasted for five minutes.

As soon as he walked into the command center, the chief of staff reported solemnly.

"The captain of the regiment has found out that the Liaodong Army attacked us..."

"Around Fengcheng, we found at least 20,000 Liaodong Army... Also, the Liaodong Army has many cannons equipped with more than 100 gates. In just a few minutes, our three squadrons defending the three walls were blown up and lost more than half of them, and we urgently needed reinforcements..."

"Anyway, the Liaodong Army must have liked the supplies and weapons and ammunition we stockpiled in Fengcheng. Otherwise, the Liaodong Army would never have dispatched so many troops to attack us for dozens of kilometers."

The violent explosion of shells sounded in my ears, and it was impossible to make a false statement.

If the Liaodong Army had not had 20,000 troops, how could it be equipped with so many artillery?

Therefore, the Japanese corps captain confirmed the Chief of Staff’s judgment without thinking.

He frowned and asked, "Where are other troops? Have you completed the assembly and prepared for combat..."

"Hi..." Chief of Staff shouted...

"The four brigades under the wing are all ready for combat, the baggage corps and field artillery brigades are also equipped with weapons and can be put into combat at any time..."

"Yo Xi..." The captain of the regiment decisively ordered with satisfaction. "The first, second, third and third brigades, reinforced three directions in the east and south directions. Other troops, as reserves, are engaged in battle at any time... "Also, the Liaodong army is powerful, and even if we fight all of them, we can't hold on for too long. Therefore, we must immediately send people to the General Command to seek assistance until the reinforcements arrive... ""We have a logistics base captured by the Liaodong army, and this logistics base can't lose anything. Otherwise, more than 100,000 imperial soldiers on the front line may be out of food and lose supplies at any time..."

At the Japanese General Command, three or four hours ago, the Japanese Commander-in-Chief Oyama Iwam learned from the reconnaissance forces that the Liaodong Army was advancing towards Fengcheng.

A day ago, Dashanyan and his chief of staff were very firmly judged that the Liaodong Army would definitely rest on site for a few days.

After only a dozen hours, the situation changed.

The Liaodong Army, which had been fighting for two consecutive days, not only did not rest, but instead acted as if it was rushing towards its weaknesses for a long time.

Faced with this shocking news, Dashanyan's first reaction was shock. After the shock, he began to worry.

Because Fengcheng is too heavy for the current Japanese army. If you lose Fengcheng, the Japanese army will need at least three months of preparation time to stockpile enough materials, weapons and ammunition, and have the strength to fight the Russian army in a decisive battle.

Therefore, after receiving the news, Dashanyan didn't care why the Liaodong Army pointed the troops at Fengcheng. He subconsciously prepared to mobilize troops to reinforce Fengcheng, and surrounded the Liaodong Army around Fengcheng and eliminate them.

However, at this moment, news came from the front-line troops confronting the old Russians.

The Russian army stationed in Liaoyang is carrying out large-scale military mobilizations and launches counterattacks on itself at any time.

Compared with Fengcheng, the front line is obviously more important.

Therefore, Dashanyan immediately stopped the idea of ​​mobilizing troops from the front line to reinforce Fengcheng.
