These thoughts only flashed through Yuki Otsu's mind, and the actual time was only more than ten seconds. And at this moment, the second round of strikes of the landing force followed, and this time the shells landed more accurately, two shells fell only about ten meters from the position, and the other shell fell accurately to the right side of the artillery position.

After the shell landed, the huge impact force of the shell blew up four or five Japanese soldiers nearby, and an 87 mm Knoob gun was also knocked to the ground by the impact.

Fortunately, Yuki Otsu was far away from the explosion point, so he was not injured by the explosion, and his reaction was quite alert, and he immediately hid behind an artillery truck, and before Yuki Otsu could dodge, another shell fell into the artillery position from the air, causing a series of explosions.

Mortars are howitzers, which are fired at a large angle and fly in a large arc, so their accuracy is somewhat worse than that of cannons that generally shoot at flat or small angles. However, the landing force uses mortars made with modern technology and technology, and there are unmanned reconnaissance helicopters in the air to provide accurate data on the landing point, which can correct the shooting data in extreme time to ensure the accuracy of the strike.

As a result, with only two or three rounds of strikes, the mortar platoon of the landing force determined the precise firing parameters, and the rate of fire increased significantly.

Since the mortar is manually loaded and fired from the front, the fastest rate of fire is about 20 rounds / min, but taking into account other interference factors on the battlefield, the actual rate of fire is about 12-16 rounds / However, after more than a minute of firing, the three mortars fired a total of more than 50 shells at the coalition artillery positions, and the data monitored by the UAVs showed that there were about 30 shells that accurately fell into the coalition artillery positions, and more than 10 shells fell near the coalition artillery positions, and one of the shells hit a shell box, triggering a large explosion of coalition shells.

Originally, the artillery of the coalition forces was not completely ready, so it was powerless to fight back in the face of the artillery attack of the landing force, and for more than a minute, there was not a single artillery shot back, and as a result, after this round of strikes, the entire artillery position fell into a sea of fire and explosion. Five artillery pieces, along with dozens of artillery pieces, were almost completely lost. Fortunately, Yuki Otsu was very clever and left the artillery position at the right time, so he did not die in the artillery fire.

Seeing that the artillery array of the coalition army was destroyed by its own artillery, Qiu Yahui immediately ordered the mortar platoon to immediately shift its position and attack the rapid-fire artillery of the coalition army.

Although it took only two or three minutes from the landing force to fire and destroy the coalition artillery positions, the arrangement of the 47-mm Haqikais rapid-fire guns was simpler than that of large and medium-caliber guns, so at this time the eight 47-mm Haqikais rapid-fire guns of the coalition forces were ready, and Yuki Otsu, who had escaped from the large and medium-caliber artillery positions, immediately ordered to open fire immediately.

In fact, although the speed of the Haqikaisi rapid-fire gun is fast, but the shells are small, the firing range is short, and the power of the explosion is far from being compared with the large and medium-caliber artillery, to be honest, it does not pose much threat to the position of the landing force, but Otsu Yuki can't manage so much, no matter how small the power of the Haqikaisi rapid-fire gun is, it is always stronger than rifles and machine guns. Moreover, the number of rapid-fire guns in Haggaeus is large, and the rate of fire is fast, so maybe it can play some role.

The two sides opened fire almost simultaneously, and the eight Haqikes rapid-fire guns opened fire together, to the point that it was quite alarming, and the shells were fired one after another at the positions of the landing force. At this time, the landing force had built fortifications before the start of the battle, and finally played a role, protecting the soldiers well, and the shells of the Haqikes rapid-fire cannon were really not powerful and did not cause any casualties. And the mortar side of the landing force immediately launched a counterattack.

However, the distribution of Haqikaisi rapid-fire guns is relatively wide, so the mortar platoon can only strike one by one, three mortars fired at the same time, two or three rounds of continuous firing, and one of the Haqikaisi rapid-fire guns was destroyed, and then one by one, it took only a few minutes, and four of the eight Haqikaisi rapid-fire guns of the coalition army have been extinguished.

At this point, anyone can see that it is impossible to compete with the opponent's artillery by relying only on the Habekaisi rapid-fire gun, although until now, the coalition forces do not know what kind of artillery the opponent is using, because the landing force uses smokeless gunpowder, and the coalition forces cannot judge the position of the opponent's artillery positions from the smoke, and the trajectory of the mortar is very different from that of ordinary artillery, and the opponent's artillery cannot be found from the ballistic reverse. Of course, even if the artillery positions of the landing force were found, the coalition forces would have no choice, because the coalition forces had no long-range strike weapons.

Although Yuki Otsu's mind was full of questions, the opponent not only had strong firepower, but also the artillery was equally ferocious, this was definitely not the combat power that the Qing army could have, if it was not the Qing army, then what kind of army was the other side? Why should it be the enemy of the coalition army? However, Otsu Yuki also knows that now is not the time to study these things, the large and medium-caliber artillery has been fully reimbursed, and four of the eight Haqikaisi rapid-fire guns have also been destroyed, and if they continue to fight, the remaining four will not be saved, although it is said that the Haqikaisi rapid-fire cannon has little effect, but it is better than nothing, so Otsu Yuki had to order the whole army to retreat, withdraw first, and then talk about how to deal with the enemy army in the future, and then slowly discuss. Anyway, it is not enough to rely only on the army at Dagukou, it really can't be like the rescue in Tianjin, where there are still more than 5,000 Japanese troops stationed in Tianjin, and there are more than 20 artillery pieces, which is enough to deal with this unknown enemy army.

And after Yuki Otsu gave the order, the commanders of other countries had no objections, in fact, even if Yuki Otsu did not order the withdrawal of troops, some people would suggest to him, after all, everyone could see that no matter whether the opponent in front of him was the Qing army or not, it was not something that his miniature Eight-Nation Coalition Army could deal with. Therefore, after Yuki Otsu gave the order, the remaining four Habekis rapid-fire guns first retreated, and then the other coalition forces also retreated.

Although the plan previously formulated by the landing force was mainly for defense, if the enemy retreated, it was natural that he would still have to beat the water dogs, and there was a reason not to pursue them. So Qiu Yahui immediately ordered, first let the mortar fire be extended, hit the rear of the coalition army, and then ordered the defenders of each position to kill out and pursue the coalition army.

In fact, the retreat of the coalition forces is still very orderly, not a hasty retreat, there is no order, but after a few shots, no matter how well-trained the army is, it is inevitable that it will be chaotic, not to mention that after Luo Yue led the troops to pursue it, automatic rifles and squad machine guns formed a powerful firepower, under such a firepower attack, it is impossible to think about it, so the retreat of the coalition army finally evolved into a rout.

Fortunately, the command of the landing force still understood that today's battle did not necessarily mean a complete defeat of the enemy forces, so the landing force did not have to go far after the landing force and received an order from the command headquarters to retreat to the position and garrison. However, the coalition forces did not dare to stay, and did not stop until they retreated to Komagawa Town. At this time, it was getting late, and the coalition forces were stationed in the town of Komagawa.

The results of the landing force were as follows: 281 coalition soldiers were killed, 34 were captured, 208 rifles of various types, 2 Maxim machine guns, more than 12,600 rounds of ammunition, 18 carts, 33 donkeys, horses, and livestock, as well as a small amount of military supplies. However, all five large and medium-caliber guns of the coalition army were destroyed in the artillery fire, and the coalition forces left them alone, and the landing force still picked up some parts that seemed to be relatively complete to see if they could piece together a single artillery.

There were no dead soldiers on the landing force's side, only 17 soldiers were wounded, and eight of them were seriously injured and could no longer participate in the fighting, but there was no danger to their lives, and as long as they were treated for about 10 days, they could return to normal.

The landing force achieved major results in the first battle, and the whole army was naturally very excited, and the rifles captured this time were even more varied, all kinds of rifles, such as the British-made Lee Enfild NO.1 rifle, the American-made Kragg-Jorgensen rifle M-1892 rifle, the French Lebor M-1886 rifle, the German-made Mauser G98 rifle, the Russian-made Mosingana M-1891 rifle, The Japanese-made 30-style village rain rifle, the Italian Marinse-Carcano rifle, etc., almost every one of them is a classic gun in the old time and space.

There are not many gun enthusiasts among the soldiers, and when they suddenly see such an antique rifle, they are naturally very interested, and they are looking for their favorite rifles, holding them in their hands and watching them carefully, or doing actions such as pulling the bolt, aiming, assassinating, etc., and they are almost shooting.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and Qiu Yahui also beckoned the soldiers to return to the position to garrison, and handed over the captured materials and equipment to the public for piling. Fortunately, the soldiers had developed the habit of consciously respecting discipline, and although they were a little reluctant, they still handed over the captured rifles to the public.

And the news of the victory reached Hejiawan Village, and the villagers were even more jubilant, because before the war, the villagers had no bottom in their hearts, and they did not know whether the landing force could defeat the coalition army, after all, these decades ago, the myth of the invincibility of foreigners had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although Luo Yue had previously led the troops to defeat the Russian army, and the landing force had brought such an artifact as an "airplane", but after learning the news of the coalition army's attack on Hejiawan Village, the village was still panicked, and many people were ready to run away.

However, seeing the prisoners who were taken into the village, as well as the captured rifles, vehicles, donkeys, horses, and livestock, the whole village finally convinced that the landing force was absolutely reliable, and as long as there was a landing force in the village, there was no need to be afraid of foreigners.
