"Let's get started!" When the cannon sound sounded again in the direction of Jiulian City, the third division of Katsura Taro on the left flank finally launched an attack, and the Japanese army used the division as an independent combat unit, that is to say, this division will be equipped with a relatively complete formation, infantry, artillery, sappers and cavalry! So Katsura Taro's attack methods are also more diverse.

The opponent's artillery is very sharp, and in the last attack, it was easy to wipe out Oshima Yoshimasa's artillery team directly, Katsura Taro naturally learned a lesson, artillery is only support and not decisive force, and what really has to fight is the infantry and the cavalry with flank circuits!

"The Japanese are coming!" With the rumbling sound of artillery, the Japanese soldiers launched a charge, the bayonets on the rifles gleamed in the reflection of the sun, and with a crazy roar, groups of Japanese soldiers began to charge the Qing army, and Mackensen was at this time with his own teaching troops planted in the Qing army's defense line, and the machine guns and artillery in their hands would serve as the fire pillars of the entire flank.

"Let's fire!" At a distance of 400 meters, the MG91 heavy machine gun from Germany finally launched the first roar on the battlefield, and these steel machines weighing only a few tens of kilograms sprayed a rain of bullets at a rate of fire of 600 rounds per minute! The fiery red bullets formed a long red whip and swept across the battlefield! The fire network formed by several machine guns instantly blocked the offensive path of most of the Japanese army!

The sudden barrage caught the Japanese soldiers who encountered this weapon for the first time by surprise, and the soldiers were swept away as if they were cutting wheat. The entire offensive also stalled, and many Japanese troops began to look for cover or lie on the ground to avoid the deadly rain of bullets. And once the impact loses speed and strength, it is equivalent to losing!

As soon as Katsura Taro saw that the situation was not good, the artillery that had been prepared for a long time was pushed down to the front line, but after several test firings, the Japanese found that the opponent's machine gun bunkers were very low, and under the cover of the terrain, it was difficult for the artillery to hit!

Then the Japanese artillery concentrated on attacking the Qing army at the junction, and under the dense charge of shells and bayonets, Liu Shengxiu's troops could not hold it at first!

"It's too dangerous for these guys to be comrades!" After avoiding the machine guns, the Japanese attack was relatively smooth, and the Japanese soldiers cut the defenders' positions little by little like a huge chisel, if not for the warlords. Mackensen dares to guarantee that as long as the opponent makes a single impact, the entire defense line will be complete. But fortunately, Nie Shicheng's department is quite reliable, and the tactical level is not expected to be high, but at least it can be nailed to the position! If more than 4,000 people fight to the death and do not retreat, they can drag it out for a while!

"Firepower! The only thing that can stop your opponent is firepower! "MARKENSON CONCENTRATED SOME OF THE SOLDIERS AND PUSHED THE 75MM RAPID-FIRE GUN TOWARDS THE POSITION! 6 75MM RAPID-FIRE GUNS WERE PUSHED TO THE BREAKTHROUGH AND FRANTICALLY POURED SHRAPNEL AT A DISTANCE OF LESS THAN 800 METERS FROM THE OPPONENT! Each roar of the cannon means hundreds of projectiles flying towards the charging opponent, and the cannon like a good shotgun quickly harvests the life of the attacker!

Liu Shengxiu's troops can only be strong, Nie Shicheng's troops can hold back the opponent, and the real decisive forces are the Russians and Germans! The endurance and obedience of the Russian rank and file officers and soldiers were vividly displayed at this moment! Even if the bullets whizzed by them, even if the bayonets of the Japanese were only a few meters away from them! They will still face their opponents without hesitation! The entire counterattack force, with rapid-fire artillery as the core and a large number of infantry on both flanks as the auxiliary, smashed into the steady stream of Japanese troops like an engineering hammer!

"The German army really deserves to be the first army in the world! To be able to decide France in a war is really powerful! Katsura Taro, who was standing on a high place, couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the German counterattack in the distance.

The core of the attacking force is 4 rapid-fire guns, when the Japanese army is concentrated and ready to disperse the opponent in one go, the tons of ammunition fired by the 4 guns can blow up the assembled Japanese troops in a very short time! Every shot from the artillery creates a cone-shaped death zone in which you will be crushed by a dense barrage of shrapnel whether you are standing, crouching or lying on your stomach!

And the Japanese army, which was forced to disperse, had no chance of winning at all in the face of the Russian army in the group! The wedge that is so easy to hit with blood and life is squeezed out little by little! The frontal battle is about to be deadlocked! And at this time, the first engagement of the Japanese cavalry and the Cossack cavalry broke out between the Japanese and Russian cavalry on the flank!

Ancient cavalry played cavalry archery, modern cavalry played group charge, hundreds of cavalry close together, slowly advancing when away from each other, and then began to accelerate when less than 1 kilometer, in the last few hundred meters, the speed increased to the maximum! Harvest the opponent's life with fast speed and sharp saber!

The cavalry of both sides swept across the battlefield like a storm! With the shaking of the ground and the gasping of the horses, and the shouts of the soldiers, the two sides are getting closer and closer! At the last 300 meters, the Japanese troops, who had already picked up their sabers and were ready for the final assault, suddenly found that their opponents had drawn rifles that they had never seen before! As a result, the last distance of more than 200 meters became the bloody road of the Japanese cavalry!

Although the accuracy of using a rifle on horseback is extremely poor, in the face of the opponent's dense formation and the hundreds of automatic rifles on your side, no matter how poor the accuracy is, there is a rate of fire to make up for it! The elite Cossack cavalry with the KA92 semi-automatic cavalry rifle easily used up the magazine of 20 rounds in one go at a distance of more than 200 meters! A storm of steel is coming towards the Japanese cavalry! In the space of more than ten seconds, the teams of cavalry and horses were knocked down by the flying bullets, and then trampled into a puddle of flesh by their comrades behind!

Although the sabers of the two sides have not yet met, the result has been decided, and there are not many cavalrymen engaged in the battle, and the cavalry of the Japanese army was killed by the other side with almost cheating weapons before they made contact! The rest is almost two Russian cavalry fighting each other! The outcome of the battle on this battlefield has been decided! The Japanese cavalry not only did not complete the task of threatening the opponent's flank, but was repulsed by the opposing cavalry!

Although a wave of onslaught by Katsura Taro's concentrated elite forces was repulsed, if you look at the personnel losses on both sides, it is still Japan that has the advantage! The reason for this is largely due to the Qing army, which is understandable if it is said that there are simple casualties, but what happened to the large number of missing people after the war? Moreover, many of the missing persons came from units that did not engage in combat. This alone made Mackensen feel that this battle could not be fought any longer!

If Katsura Taro's attack at least inflicted heavy losses on the Qing army and the Russian army in the middle, then the attack of Oshima Yoshimasa and Tachimi Naofumi was completely a send-off! Under Jiulian City, the casualties paid by the Japanese army were several times greater than the total casualties in the previous Korean War!
