Chapter 571: Matching is very important
From the very beginning, the youth team had no hope of victory, and the purpose of their struggle was to die in battle and die in the name of all loyalty. If Uesugi wants to save Asano Soshige's life, there is only one way, and that is to save Nihonmatsu Castle. It's a pity that the junior team lost too quickly, and when Uesugi came over, the big altar had already been lost.
"You've been defeated, come with us!" Uesugi was happy to see the defeat, although the junior team suffered a lot of losses, but at least Asano Muneshige did not die, which was the best news for Uesugi .
"Uesugi-kun!" Nikaido really knows Yuyuki Uesugi who used to be shy, but that's all, Kimura Guntaro, who just died in battle, is very familiar with Uesugi.
"Nikaido senior, let these children come with me! I'll take them back to Manchuria! "Uesugi thought that these little guys had lost, and they must have thought about how to escape.
"Also ......" Before Nikaido's good words could be uttered, the teenagers shouted.
"If we don't leave, we have to avenge Captain Kimura, and we can also retreat to Neiguo City to defend it, even if the city falls, we must cut our stomachs to make our minds clear!" The teenagers, who had just seen the cruelty of the battlefield and lost the battle, were not so depressed, and they had to make a last stand.
"Taro him?" Uesugi and Kimura Kotaro were childhood playmates, and although they later fell into contact with the Uesugi family, they grew up together.
"Captain Kimura, it's already broken!" Nikaido bowed his head and reported the bad news to Uesugi.
Uesugi felt a little lost in his heart, a man he knew, who had just died in battle. After looking at the still resolute expressions of the boys, especially the expressions of the officers such as Asano Muneshige, Uesugi was sure that he still couldn't take them away. Time was running out on the battlefield, and Uesugi had no time to convince them, so he had to give it a go.
"Alright! These officers and I, now take over your command and fight back! Helpless, Uesugi had no choice but to carry out his worst plan.
"Everyone, obey the command of these seniors!" A ronin in Uesugi suddenly wanted to command the junior team, and the teenagers were still a little unconvinced, but fortunately, Nikaido was a person who understood, and hurriedly ordered everyone to obey orders.
"The four of you take over the artillery, the two of you take the machine guns, and the three of you put the riflemen in a squad and get moving!" Uesugi didn't say much nonsense, and directly assigned all the nine cronies who came with him.
Because of Asano's eccentricity, two Jinxi 75mm mountain guns and two of the four Gatling guns were assigned to the junior team to protect the lovely relatives of the mercenary officer corps. It's a pity that the junior team doesn't know how to use these treasures at all, and in the battle just now, they didn't use it at all, so they stupidly pushed and ran back.
"The ammunition cart is hung firmly, the artillery is moved back, give the line to the infantry!"
"Machine guns move, find high ground, set up bunkers, seal the road!"
"Get moving, get moving, don't stand stupidly, a group of twelve, follow me when you're done!"
The people who came with Uesugi were all his own soldiers brought out by him, and these people were not only well trained in Dalian, but also learned a lot from Uesugi with them. After a tough battle in the Udi Valley, they already had a lot of combat experience, and it was not at all difficult to command these teenagers.
"The artillery will arrange positions as soon as possible, provide fire support, the machine guns will block the road for Lao Tzu, and the infantry will go into the forest to find cover!" Finding a place on high ground and seeing the movements of the new government forces, Uesugi hurriedly deployed a defensive strategy.
The reason why Uesugi sent four personal soldiers to the two artillery pieces was because he was counting on these personal soldiers of his own. Asano Soshige's temporary artillery is not reliable at all, and Uesugi doesn't dare to let them operate the artillery. Therefore, the people who were aiming and correcting the shells were Uesugi's own soldiers, Asano Soshige and others, who had just calmed down, were in charge of loading the shells and pulling the ropes.
"Take out all the bullets and put them at hand,* put them on your shoulder, don't wait until you can't find the bullets and your collarbone is broken by the recoil, and you know you're a fool! You don't have to think about anything, you don't have to look at anything. When I say fight, you just shoot at a crowded place, you don't have to see what you're hitting or not, you just shoot as fast as you can! Don't think about it, and don't look at it! If you want to be a sharpshooter, you're still early! One of his own soldiers put together a squad of twelve, pulled them all into the weeds by the roadside, and threw them all to the ground one by one, and then shouted in a low voice like a son.
Nikaido is also among these twelve people, and he can't say what it feels like in his heart. It's okay for a group of children to be reprimanded by these guys, and even the adult feudal lord of Nikaido is treated like this, which really makes him unbearable. And Nikaido is also a middle-level samurai, and his status is much stronger than these mercenaries who can't eat, but now he has to be shouted by others, how can he not feel uncomfortable in his heart.
"You just reload, the ammo box is in the back, and whatever happens, as soon as the gunfire stops, you change the magazine, understand?" The operation of the machine gun mainly depends on the teenagers, so the soldiers have to be taught one by one.
"Hay!" The boy holding the magazine nodded repeatedly.
"I'll pat you on the head, you just shake the handle, I'll pat it again, you stop, you know! Don't look at anything, it's just a constant speed of the shake handle, if I pinch you, you're shaking fast, understand? "After teaching the ammunition man, you have to teach the shooter.
"Hay!" The shooter boy seemed to be more nervous.
"You're the easiest, you can swing my knife in whichever direction it goes, understand?" The easiest and also the most difficult, this one is responsible for the direction of the muzzle.
"Hay!" This sub-shooter is very unqualified, he has been shaking, but now is not the time for a change.
"Forget that you are human! From now on, you are a bunch of puppets, and you will do whatever they tell you to do. Don't look at it, don't think about it, your own consciousness is wrong, everything is up to them! "The new government forces were still 300 meters away, and Uesugi gave a loud blow to the crowd to confirm the authority of the veterans.
"Hit!" A squad of the new government forces, approaching Uesugi's improvised defensive line, seemed to be forming up and preparing to launch a tentative attack, and Uesugi did not hesitate to give the order to attack. The riflemen, who were lying prone in the grass, began to shoot at the enemy, but their marksmanship was really not flattering, and they did not hit for a long time.
"Don't look around, keep fighting, keep shooting!" The soldiers waved this scabbard, and the young men had the meaning of looking around a little, but he was ruthless behind his back, and even Nikaido was not spared.
Uesugi didn't expect the rifles to be able to do anything, it was enough for them to suppress the enemy, and the dense rain of machine guns and the high-explosive shells of the 75mm mountain guns were the real weapons to kill the enemy.
