In the sky, the Mustang OV-10D flies so high that it looks like a large kite from a distance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This OV-10D, although in terms of shape and power, is not much different from its parents in the sixties. However, its avionics has made a qualitative leap compared to the previous models, especially the high-definition camera system for drones installed on it by the "props team". Let it clearly see the situation on the ground at high altitude, and there is no need to fly at ultra-low altitude to get close to reconnaissance like its father's North American Mustang.

Hao Dajian raised the plane to the ceiling altitude and increased the scope of aerial reconnaissance as much as possible. Li Sifeng used a high-definition camera system to observe the situation on the ground and confirmed that the Japanese army had not sent reinforcements to the target area for the time being.

"This is Vulture No. 1, and there are no signs of Japanese reinforcements found within the reconnaissance range, please instruct." Li Sifeng reported the results of the investigation to the command center.

"Vulture No. 1, expand the reconnaissance range, find the main force of the Japanese army, and try to collect terrain information within 100 kilometers of the base center before dark."

"Copy (received and followed)."

On the ground, Lu Xiangyang also received Li Sifeng's investigation report. The Japanese had no reinforcements, and their only strength was hiding in the pine forest 600 meters away.

In the clearing of the two woodlands, the wounded cavalry were no longer wailing, perhaps exhausted, perhaps desperate for help, or completely dead.

The seriously injured horses were all shot by Lu Xiangyang, and he, who had worked as a cavalry and mounted policeman, couldn't stand the helpless screams of the animals that had been with him day and night.

The accurate marksmen who received the order quickly named the badly wounded horses on the battlefield, and soon these boring shooters expanded the scope of this roll call game.

Learning the tricks of the militants in Iraq and Afghanistan, they used their M25 sniper rifles to fire Japanese cavalry trying to come out to the rescue of the wounded.

Horn, a single gunshot took the life of a Japanese soldier. Although the M25 is not a professional sniper rifle, these accurate shooters can almost hit every shot at a distance of less than 600 meters.

Hit by a 7.62mm full-power rifle bullet, the Japanese soldier instantly lost his ability to move, and instead of saving people, he became a member of the waiting for rescue.

Taken at the hit rate of the rifle fire on the opposite side, no one in the Japanese army ventured out to rescue the wounded. But there were still people who sneaked up to the forest line, hiding behind the thicker pine trees and observing the enemy on the opposite side.

This allowed the mountain shooters to find a new game, first using M25 sniper rifles to shoot the Japanese soldiers hiding behind trees. Then they found that after flying more than 600 meters, it was difficult for the bullet to penetrate the relatively thick pine trees. So they switched to the M82A1 sniper rifle, which is also known as the Barrett anti-materiel rifle. This time, Barrett's inhumane lethality greatly shocked the Japanese army, and they were no longer ready to move, and they were completely submerged in the depths of the pine forest.

Lu Xiangyang had no intention of stopping his subordinates from these games at all, humanitarianism or something, it was to talk to people. On the other side were the Japanese soldiers who had committed many crimes in China, and one of them might become one of the executioners in the massacre in Jinling in the future.

After receiving the information that reinforcements from the Green Paint Command Center were coming, this shooting game reached its peak. Even though the Japanese were no longer daring to approach the forest line, the shooters still saw through the gap in the pine trees and opened fire when they caught a slight angle of fire. The black uniforms of the Japanese army are still relatively easy to find in the woods in late autumn. In the end, the Japanese army hardly dared to stand and move.

Koike Shunichi leaned against a small dirt slope in the pine forest, and the soldiers who were hiding behind the trees were still hit by the enemy on the opposite side, and the terrible wounds on their bodies made him no longer care about his dignity. Those wounds can't be called wounds at all, they should be called holes in the flesh and blood.

The tragic death of his comrades-in-arms caused the morale of the surviving Japanese troops to fall to the bottom. The soldiers lay on their stomachs or in the woods, no longer talking to each other. This eerie silence is so oppressive that it can't breathe.

Koike Shunichi painfully recalls the before and after of this encounter, carefully recalling every detail. In just a dozen battles, under his command, nearly two hundred elite cavalry of the empire were buried. He had to have a perfect set of rhetoric, otherwise his future would be over, and even if he was of Chinese origin, transferring to the reserve would be the best outcome.

At 8:30 a.m. on October 23, 1894, the 1st Division of the Second Army of the Imperial Army, under the cover of 16 warships of the Japanese Combined Fleet, took 16 transport ships from Yuyin Cave on the Datong River to Huayuankou. Koike Shunichi also set foot on the land of China at that time.

The landing was very smooth, and the Qing army did not need to organize anti-landing operations at all, only a small number of Qing cavalry were scouting from afar. After being driven away by the imperial cavalry, the Qing cavalry turned and fled, with no sign of fighting at all. The Japanese cavalry even put their horses on the grass near the landing site at will, allowing the horses to graze freely.

In view of these performances of the Qing army, Koike Shunichi estimated that their Second Army would have an easier time fighting on the Liaodong Peninsula than the First Army fighting in Korea. At that time, he was thinking that after capturing Lushun, the first fortress in Asia, he should be promoted to Dazuo. Perhaps it is not impossible for people from the domestic family to be active again, and to be promoted to major general.

According to the plan of the commander of the Second Army, General Oyama Yan, the Imperial Army would set out in two directions to form a pincer offensive against Jinzhou City. All the way along Jinzhou Avenue, all the way around Fuzhou, where the Qing army was weakly defended, and attacked Jinzhou City along Fuzhou Avenue.

Since it was a detour to the flank of Jinzhou Castle and needed to take a relatively long detour, General Oyama Iwa transferred most of the cavalry of the 1st Division to the commander of this road, Oji Yasumi. The troops attacking along the Golden State Avenue were commanded by Major General Nogi Noshinori, who received only a small number of cavalry for reconnaissance.

Serving as a scout cavalry in the unit of Major General Nogi Noshinori would definitely not be able to grab much merit, so Koike Shunichi naturally joined the attacking force of Oji Yasumi. Although the captain of the cavalry brigade of the 1st Division, Akiyama Yoshiko, is also in this unit, Koike Shunichi is not worried about not being able to grab the battle merits, and the Chinese will always be taken care of.

This morning, Yasujun Oji received an order from Admiral Oyama Iwa, mentioning that Nogi Noshinori had made a rapid march to Kinshu Castle yesterday, November 3, the day of the Tencho Festival (note: Emperor Meiji's birthday), and that an attack on Kinshu Castle was expected today (November 4). Ordered the Daiji Anchun Department to rush to Jinzhou City and besiege the Qing defenders.

When Koike Shunichi saw this order, his first feeling was that it was going to be a bad dish. This Nogi Noshinori fought well, and he also performed hard in the show, and he swore to set off on the day of the Tianchang Festival, which was to show loyalty to the emperor. If he is allowed to take this Golden State City overnight, he will not be able to occupy all the limelight, then it is really his own business.

So, Koike Shunichi took the initiative to ask for help and led three squadrons of nearly 500 cavalry to Jinzhou City. Of course, Oji Yasuchun knows what kind of calculation he is fighting, what are you doing with the siege war, what else can you do except increase the burden of other people's supplies.

However, the great temple Yasujun also has a lot of complaints about Nogi Noshinori's approach to taking the lead, and you Nogi Noshinori hurriedly ran alone to attack the city on the Tianchang Festival, and your loyalty is a show. Are we all wasted people dragging the empire back?

In the end, Oji Yasujun agreed to Koike Shunichi's request and asked him to lead almost all the cavalry of the cavalry brigade along Fuzhou Avenue to Jinzhou City.

Koike Shunichi, who was eager to snatch the merits of the battle, led the three squadrons of nearly 500 cavalry to set off with a little preparation, and hurried to Jinzhou City.

According to his assumption, since Nogi Noshinori had set off yesterday, the Qing army would definitely shrink its defense, and they would not encounter any resistance on the Fuzhou Avenue, which was already weakly defended. When he arrives at the city of Jinzhou, he will not let the cavalry abandon his horse and attack the city. He only had to wait for the infantry to capture the city gate and lead the cavalry into the city to cover the battle for a while, and this battle feat would be properly pocketed.

The ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny. Koike Shunichi rushed all the way, as he expected, and did not encounter resistance from the Qing army. However, the villages along the road had long since been empty, and the Qing army had filled all the wells with earth.

This can cost Qingqing's life, this person can drink a sip of water without a sip of water, so that this horse after a fast run cannot be short of water. Horses are far less resistant to thirst than they are to hunger, and when they lack water and reach 22% of their body weight, they die. Even if the lack of water does not reach 22%, the horse can be life-threatening due to intestinal hernia caused by dehydration. Therefore, the drill code of the Japanese cavalry has a rule that the drinking water of the war horse must be satisfied first, and then the drinking water of the people.

The Qing army used soil to fill all the wells along the way, but it was a big problem for Koike Junichi. He galloped along the way, and when the horse's thirst was at its limit, he realized that he could not find a suitable water source. On the way, I encountered rivers, but these rivers are connected to the Bohai Sea, and this road is too close to the sea, and the sea water backs up at high tide, and the water in this river is not drinkable at all. The water bottles carried by the cavalry are tantamount to a drop in the bucket for the drinking water of the horses.

Finally, I found a clean stream in this pine forest, and then hurriedly replenished the water of the military horses. He had just stepped out of the woods when he encountered this group of evil stars.

The current situation made Koike Shunichi sit on the wax, the other party had a strong burst of fire and the cover of the woods, and he seemed to have only one way to retreat. However, having lost nearly a third of the combat strength of the cavalry brigade, it was obviously unpleasant for him to go back like this.

According to his previous handling method, he lied that he had encountered the main force of the Qing army and asked for reinforcements. When reinforcements arrive, whether he is defeated by the opposite team of evil stars, or if the reinforcements annihilate them, he will be able to get through.

If they are defeated by the evil stars on the opposite side, it means that it is not my brother who is incompetent, but that the Qing army is too cunning. If he could be annihilated and their powerful burst weapons captured, Koike Shunichi would have a credit for besieging them and in the woods, and he would no longer be held accountable for the loss of a large number of cavalry.

But Koike Shunichi's wishful thinking snapped, and the premise of these ideas was that the strangely dressed army could only be realized by dragging it in the woods.

Koike Shunichi looked at the depressed cavalry around him, could he really hold back the other party? The answer is clearly no.

Cold guns still rang out from time to time, and the well-behaved Japanese soldiers lay down, or hid behind rocks, or behind large mounds of earth; Already there will be no more hits. It's just that the power of the guns on the opposite side is too great, and the pine tree chips and branches fly. Where is this gun, it's a small-caliber artillery.

Some of the young cavalrymen were even sobbing in fright, and Koike Shunichi was glad that the strange artillery that could cross the line and shell their rear did not fire, otherwise they would have retreated.

Koike Shunichi wanted to report to his superiors for throwing the pot, saying that he had successfully trapped the opposing troops. Only in this situation, he himself knew very well who was trapping whom.
