Super Dictator

Chapter 19 Another side mission

The terrain of Dakaoling is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Xiuyan is just an isolated city. Naturally, he is reluctant to go there. However, Nie Shicheng is now the commander-in-chief, so he cannot express his objection openly. He can only secretly dislike it in his heart. .

Nie Shicheng took in Feng Sheng'a's displeased look and sighed helplessly in his heart. He knew this man very well when he was in North Korea. This man was a little timid and afraid of death. He would fight again. It's just to avoid the important and take the easy. However, this man is a Manchu and has a strong backstage in the court.

However, the Japanese's main attack direction was Dakaoling, so he could only dispatch Fengsheng Abe, who was not very effective in combat.

After a pause, Nie Shicheng emphatically explained: "The Fifth Division has Japan's first general Naofumi Hashimi. His soldiers are good at bayonet fighting and are quick and tough."

Tachimi Naofumi was a famous general known by the Japanese as an invincible fighter throughout Japan. Historically, the Japanese army's elder, Aritomo of Yama Prefecture, avoided him even when walking, and did not dare to show up in the mourning hall until his death.

During the Russo-Japanese War, 10,000 "Tachimi troops" carried out an assault with bayonets, successfully lifted the siege of 100,000 Russian troops, and turned defeat into victory.

It's a pity that because he was born in the shogunate army, he was idle for a period of time. Now he is not as high as many of the people he defeated, including Yamagata Aritomo, and he is only a major general.

When he came to China, it was clear that he was here to gain military exploits, so the army was eager to fight.

Feng Sheng'a also fought against Tachimi Naofumi when he was in Korea, and suffered heavy losses at his hands. When he heard that he would attack Dakaoling, his face couldn't help but look much better, and he even looked at Nie Shicheng gratefully.

Nie Shicheng saw the fear on the faces of several generals, then changed the topic and said with a smile: "The Japanese army has been fighting for a long time, and the logistics supplies are stretched and seriously insufficient. The soldiers are already exhausted. Our army is waiting for work. We have taken advantage of the right time, place and people. Even if He immediately saw that Shangwen had three heads and six arms, and I, Nie Shicheng, could make him retreat despite the difficulties, not to mention that he didn't have three heads and six arms."

The expressions of the generals returned to normal.

Nie Shicheng wanted to boost morale, but at this time, his staff Feng Guozhang hurried in.

Feng Guozhang had a rectangular face in the shape of a Chinese character, two mustaches, and very rough eyebrows. He also walked with a powerful look. He was worthy of being one of the three famous Beiyang heroes that Yuan Shikai would rely on in the future.

However, he was now just an aide under Nie Shicheng. After graduating from the Beiyang Arms Academy, Feng Guozhang joined Nie Shicheng's army as a teacher. Nie Shicheng saw that he was quite proficient in literary, Taoist and military strategy, so he promoted him to an aide.

Seeing this, Nie Shicheng quickly winked at Feng Guozhang. He had just been boosting the morale of the generals and did not want to hear Feng Guozhang report any bad news in front of everyone.

Feng Guozhang showed joy on his face. After saluting, he said with a smile: "Shuai Nie! Generals, the spies in Jiulian City have just received good news."

Feng Guozhang wanted to whet everyone's appetite. When he said this, he paused deliberately.

When everyone pricked up their ears and looked like they were listening, he continued: "Our prisoners actively resisted in Jiulian City and blew up a large Japanese arsenal. The Japanese lost countless guns and ammunition, and the Japanese soldiers lost too much. There are more than a hundred people, which is enough to slow down the attack."

The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, whose military morale had dropped below zero, were in urgent need of good news to cheer them up before the war. Therefore, this modest victory was taken by Feng Guozhang and publicized with great fanfare.

Nie Shicheng also understood this truth, with a smile on his face, and echoed: "Our prisoners actually defeated the Japanese army. From this, it seems that the Japanese are not invincible. Hua Fu, please inform the whole army of this good news quickly to cheer up." Our army is determined to defeat the Japanese in this battle. You should work together and join forces with me, Nie Shi, to show the Japanese that our Qing soldiers are not cowards and will win this battle!"

"This battle must be won!" all the generals shouted in unison.

Although Nie Shicheng was happy, he did not think that the prisoners who had made meritorious service could escape from the Japanese encirclement. Jiulian City was already behind enemy lines. Who would have thought that Wei Jichen could lead the prisoners to escape from the city.

However, Wei Jichen's current situation is indeed not very good. Counting the time, it has been two days since he escaped from Jiulian City.

During these two days, everyone had a good night's sleep. Fortunately, in this northeastern land, there are many birds and animals, and there is no shortage of mountain roots and tree bark. Relying on these things, everyone managed to survive.

A group of about forty people were walking on the winding path in the mountains. They were hungry and thirsty. Wei Jichen looked at the sun and guessed that it was noon.

"Brothers, let's stop and take a rest." Wei Jichen sat down and rubbed his sore thighs.

When the soldiers heard that they could rest, they lay on the ground in twos and threes, breathing heavily.

However, Mengzi and Huzi greeted Wei Jichen, took two soldiers, and went hunting again while taking advantage of their rest time.

Along the way, we have passed two or three small villas, but we have not encountered the Japanese. It seems that the Japanese have limited troops. Although they have occupied a large area of ​​​​Liaodong, they can only defend the limited troops in the towns. As for the vast countryside, Areas are beyond our reach.

Wei Jichen found a shady place, closed his eyes, and entered the system.

Since there was no fighting with the Japanese for two consecutive days, the merit points remained stationary, with only more than 150 points left.

Wei Jichen entered the mission system. His main task was to lead at least ten soldiers to escape from the prison and join the majority of the Qing army. There were now forty-two soldiers in the captive temporary army. As long as Wei Jichen brought these people safely to Dagaoling, he would You can get more than a thousand merit points, but if you buy a super body armor from the system, your chances of surviving on the battlefield will be much greater.

Wei Jichen thought happily while looking at the mission system.

One main mission, which has not yet been completed, and two side missions, one failed and one successful.

Wei Jichen was stunned. A new side mission appeared in the mission system.

Side mission: Kill Japanese Captain Saito Masaki. The host's behavior aroused the captain's anger. Saito Masaki has now led the army to pursue the host and will catch up from time to time.

Mission completed: 300 points of merit will be awarded. If the mission fails, 100 points will be deducted.

Saito Masaki, Wei Jichen remembered that the Japanese soldiers in the prison talked about the commander of their Jiulian City the most. They never expected that Saito Masaki would come to chase me personally. I don’t know if it was my misfortune or luck.

At this moment, Wei Jichen was very grateful to the system. Without the reminder of this side mission, he would never have imagined that Saito Masaki would lead his army to pursue him.

But now that it is known, Saito Masaki has become Bai Huahua's meritorious service in Wei Jichen's mind.

Not only will there be rewards for completing side missions, but also merit points will be earned for killing Saito Masaki. According to the system's calculation method, Saito Masaki is a Japanese captain with more than a thousand soldiers under his command. If he kills him, Wei Jichen will probably get more than 500 merit points. The value is even richer than completing side quests.

Sure enough, it was easier to make a fortune by making extra money. Wei Jichen immediately clicked to accept the task without giving it a second thought.

But how should he tell the soldiers about this matter? Wei Jichen was distressed after exiting the system, but he could not tell his soldiers that he had a super military auxiliary system.

If he said that, Wei Jichen could imagine that several soldiers would come up to hold him down and then perform exorcism activities.

What a headache!
