"Only when you go abroad can you know how good the country really is. Look at the shogunate army, there is no party branch! This is about to go into battle, and some Japanese soldiers who originally looked okay were actually afraid of death. If you're afraid of death, say it sooner! Political Commissar Zhong Danian said quite unhappily at the party committee meeting.

After Zhou Xinhua announced to the shogunate that he would send something to their families, some of the shogunate troops were indeed grateful, and similarly, some of the shogunate troops were depressed. The war was about to start, and these guys who had no will to fight even lamented while drinking, "This is a sue for us, don't think about coming back alive." ”

This statement was supported by many shogunate troops, and of course some shogunate troops did not support this statement. The two sides first had a verbal argument, and then simply beat each other up after the wine came up.

The Liberation Army attaches great importance to the ideological building of the troops, and must carry out ideological mobilization before any war. Of course, the mobilization is not to shout allegiance to Weeser, but to make the reasons and goals of the future battle clear. The Chinese are extremely realistic, and the Chinese are also very reasonable. As long as the reasoning and implementation can be recognized by everyone, then all that remains is to tell the comrades to "sweat more in peacetime and shed less blood in wartime".

To fight a war in Japan, the ideological mobilization on the Chinese side is very simple, and the country needs to know Japan's movements and the capabilities of all parties, which is to prepare for future exchanges between China and Japan. This reason can only be understood by Chinese commanders and fighters. Recently, Weeser has strengthened the term "commander and fighter" in the army, and the army is divided into combatants and commanders, and the original title of "officer and soldier" has begun to fade.

There is no reason for the internal construction of the Chinese army to be copied into the Japanese army, so everyone is very unaccustomed to the Japanese shogunate army. Therefore, the vacillation of the Japanese army before the war was particularly unaccustomed to the Chinese soldiers.

Zhou Xinhua reluctantly persuaded: "Forget it, I don't think the Shogunate Army may be stronger than the Shogunate Army." Our mission is to try to build a new Japanese army, and it is said that we will return home after these battles. At that time, the Japanese fought as much as they liked. ”

"It's great to be back home. The Japanese army really can't! Zhong Danian said. With him taking the lead, other comrades expressed almost exactly the same opinion. War is about death, and if you fight for China, you will be afraid of death, but it's good to fight the battlefield. But dying for the sake of the Japanese is really beyond everyone's tolerance.

The war did not change because of personal feelings, and the Shogunate army launched an attack on Kyoto. They split into two teams, one attacking Toba and one attacking Fushimi. The Shinsengumi in the mixed forces were originally mainly to maintain law and order in Fushimi, so the mixed forces faced the enemy who attacked the Fushimi area.

After observing a large circle in the telescope, Zhou Xinhua said suspiciously: "Did the Satsuma clan on the opposite side send these hundreds of people to fight?" ”

Since 1853, the size of the Liberation Army has been around 20,000 people. Moreover, the troops have never been in the habit of dispersing operations, and Weeser's war principle of "concentrating forces to fight a war of annihilation" has been fully implemented. After Zhou Xinhua and his group went to the battlefield, the Guangfu Army fought a battle of 50,000 people at every turn. Therefore, there were more than 800 enemies on the opposite side, which made Zhou Xinhua feel that the attitude of the fallen army towards the war was too child's play. The mouth shouted that he wanted to "destroy the enemy", and he also made a force of more than 10,000 people to fight. The shogunate had 15,000 men, and it is said that there were 5,000 people in the shogunate. Zhou Xinhua felt that he could be one against the other. He didn't expect that the enemies on the other side were even fewer than his own.

"The enemy's banner belongs to the Satsuma Domain, just such a number, outflank them and destroy them!" Zhou Xinhua put forward his opinions.

"The Satsuma clan has occupied the main road, will they run away?" Political commissar Zhong Danian was very worried about this.

"I see that they are wearing straw sandals, and our troops and the new selection group are liberation shoes, and they can't outrun us."

"Besides, the enemy's artillery positions are behind, and we can outflank them."

The party committees of the former enemy put forward their opinions one after another, and finally reached a consensus and took the initiative to attack and destroy the enemy.

Maps of the area outside Kyoto have long been available, and there have been actual surveys of the terrain. The 1,000 troops were divided into three teams and set off one after another, the front team was naturally riflemen, the middle was artillery, and the Shinsengumi followed last.

Calculated from the map, as well as the actual survey of the terrain, this sortie will cover a distance of about eight to fifteen kilometers. The reason why the prediction is so inaccurate is that it is difficult to predict what kind of response the Shogunate army on the other side is said to have received Western-style training.

Using the terrain to avoid the sight of the Satsuma Domain's military formation, everyone just walked and walked, walked and walked. Walking out five kilometers, the Shinsengumi was unexpectedly distanced. It's impossible to bring the Shinsengumi to practice with them in military training on weekdays.,These guys are also responsible for the security of the Fushimi area.,Solve the troubles everywhere.。 It was the Japanese army who was trained.

Now that the troops only carry dry rations and water bottles, no luggage, and move at a rapid marching cadence, the Shinsengumi are a little unable to keep up with the murderous guys.

"Do you want to wait for them?" Political Commissar Zhong Danian built yì said.

"Wait, wait! Wait until the cucumber dishes are cold! Keep marching! Zhou Xinguo replied.

The troops dragged the artillery wagons all the way around to a not quite flat area behind the Satsuma Domain's military formation. From here, it can be seen that the troops of the Satsuma clan occupied a higher position and laid artillery there.

"Offensive formation! Above! The troops did not even rest, and immediately began to move on to the next step. The rapid march had just raised the heart rate of the troops, and this break would definitely make the troops feel unwell.

The Chinese soldiers in the mixed unit sent a platoon of more than 30 people to attack. Approaching the battle relied on basic skills, and the attacking squad, composed entirely of Chinese troops, took advantage of the undulating ground conditions and began to move. The shelter in front was a little higher, and everyone trotted all the way with their waists. The shelter in front was lower, and everyone crawled on the ground.

Under the leadership of the platoon commander, the troops made full use of every small ditch, every small dirt bag, every tree and grass that could be used. The distance between the army and the fallen army was quickly shortened from five or six hundred meters to less than one hundred meters.

Zhou Xinguo, who was on the starting position, saw that the front-line troops were already in place, and he pointed to the artillery position of the Satsuma Domain in the distance and said: "When the battle begins, you will start to attack along the road!" ”

There were two roads leading to the Satsuma Domain's positions, and the vanguard of the Koyasu Army completely avoided these two roads and approached the enemy from areas where it was difficult to move, lurking near the enemy. All the shogunate needed to do now was to attack along these two paths.

By the time the troops at the front were in place, the shock troops were ready. The 200 people in the Shinsengumi rushed to the starting position a little out of breath.

Looking at this group of murderous "Kyoto police", Zhou Xinguo said: "When the infantry rushes up and starts the battle with the Satsuma Domain, you will start to set off and give the guys of the Satsuma Domain the final blow when the forces of the two sides are deadlocked." If I'm not mistaken, it's going to be a chase. How many guys from the Satsuma Domain can be killed depends on the appearance of the kings! ”
