Outside Shanhaiguan, in front of Qiantun Weicheng, which was under the jurisdiction of Jinzhou Prefecture.
The engineering unit under the Second Army of the Chinese Empire was approaching the Qiantun City.
The Qing soldiers on the city wall had long been holed up there, not even daring to fire their guns.
If not for the supervision of the army, these Qing soldiers would have run away long ago.
"Is the city gate blocked?"
"Milord, the city gates have been blocked. Even if they break through the gates, they won't be able to enter.”
The general guarding the city looked at the endless steel machinery that stretched to the end of the city wall, as if he was about to lose all his strength.
Looking at the old-fashioned guns in their hands, he did not even have the courage to fight back.
If it wasn't for the fact that his entire family was in the city, he would have run away long ago.
Now, he could only block the city gate and hope that the moat and the city gate could stop the Chinese Empire's army.
Kakaka…
Bang...
As the construction vehicles of the engineering unit arrived at the bottom of the city wall and spread out the pontoon bridge, the moat checkpoint was cleared.
Then, the engineering unit placed a large number of explosives on the city gate.
Five minutes later, the city gate was blown open with a bang.
The sand blocking the city gate was blasted open.
"It's over, it's all over."
When the general climbed up from the city wall and saw the flood of steel entering the city, his vision went black and he almost fainted.
Chen Ling was too lazy to waste his artillery shells on a small city like this. If he did, it would be troublesome to build the city walls after taking over the city.
This way, the city gate would be blasted open, and there would be no need to repair it in the future.
In a modern war, what was the use of city gates?
"Leave 500 people to clean up the city. The rest of the troops will continue to advance.”Chen Ling ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Chen Ling led the 2nd Army, which consisted of 100,000 soldiers, from Shanhaiguan and headed straight for Fengtian Prefecture, which was also known as Shenyang.
According to his plan, he would reach Mukden on one day, and Lushunkou on the second day. Then, he would wait for the allied forces of the Western powers at Lushunkou.
He just didn't know if they would still dare to log in at Lushunkou.
The army advanced at a speed that was much faster than Germany's blitzkrieg during World War II.
At 8:15, they broke through Qiantun Weicheng.
At 8:34, they broke through the Pingchuan Fortress.
9:09, break through the high platform castle.
9:22 pm, breaking through Jinchuan Castle.
9:50, Breaking through Tuanshan Fortress.
10:10, Ningyuan Prefecture.
When it was 12:25, the army had already broken through Jinxi City and arrived outside Jinzhou Prefecture.
Then, he spent 20 minutes to break through the city gate of Jin Zhou Prefecture and took over the entire city in an hour.
At this point, the barrier guarding Fengtian Prefecture had completely disappeared.
Chen Ling was not in a hurry to attack Fengtian Prefecture. He planned to rest for a while and have a meal before launching an attack in the afternoon.
While Chen Ling was settling down the troops and resting in Jinzhou Prefecture, the Japanese were dumbfounded.
What was going on?
The Chinese Empire was about to attack Fengtian Prefecture.
At this time, Japan had already regarded the three eastern provinces as their territory.
It was just that for the sake of the interests of Sakhalin Island and the northeast, they were unevenly divided with Russia. They were busy arguing with Russia and had no time to occupy the three eastern provinces.
In the end, before they and Russia could settle the division of the three eastern provinces, the Chinese Empire attacked.
Not only Japan, but even Russia was a little confused.
Since when did that bunch of braids become so fierce? They had just destroyed the allied forces of the various countries, and now they were going to attack the northeast again.
This wouldn't do. Although Russia's interests were in Europe, they also had a hand in the Far East.
Therefore, before the allied forces of the other countries arrived, Russia and Japan joined forces and prepared to send troops to attack Chen Ling.
Chen Ling didn't know about the situation in Russia and Japan. Even if he did, he wouldn't care.
He wasn't afraid of the two countries sending troops, but he was afraid that if the two countries sent too few troops, it wouldn't be enough for him to kill.
At three in the afternoon, Chen Ling led the army and set off again.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Fengtian Prefecture was captured.
At this time, a portion of the Japanese troops stationed in North Korea had already set off by boat to Lushunkou.
The other part of the Japanese army led the North Korean army from the land and headed to Xinyi Prefecture, which was Dandong, through the Yalu River.
Not only that, Japan also contacted the Manchu ministers of Fengtian.
Using the excuse of helping the Qing Dynasty recover, he persuaded the eight banners of the Qing Dynasty in Fengtian to send troops.
Thus, on the second day, when Chen Ling led his army to Lushunkou, they were ambushed.
"The Japanese are here?"
After killing the ambush team, Chen Ling looked at the corpses of the Japanese soldiers and said with a smile.
This was an experience point that was delivered to his doorstep.
