Chapter 491: Attack on the 10th of the Lunar Month II
At 6:15 a.m. on January 6, in the early morning of dawn, a large force of Japanese troops first appeared 400 meters northwest of Shilo City. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Black coats, dirty white trousers, tall black hats, jagged skirmishers, rifles in hand, and shouting something out of their mouths.
"The Japanese are here, brothers, aim and fight!"
Xia Qingyun, who was in charge of the defense of the western section of the city wall, saw the Japanese army appear in the weedy forest in front of him, and shouted and ordered to shoot.
"Bang bangβ"
Suddenly, on the 400-meter-long west city wall, the soldiers of the Luyu Defense Army, who were in charge of the 200-meter right flank of the west city, raised their guns and fired fiercely.
"Bend over and keep going!"
The commander of the 4th Wing of the Japanese Army, Nakaki Noki-no-Ue Osa, gave the order in a loud voice, and the accompanying trumpeter immediately sounded the order to continue the march.
"Bang bangβ"
At this time, in the northeast direction of Dongluo City, there was also a fierce sound of shooting.
Then a loud military horn came, and the three brigades of the 16th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, which were responsible for attacking Dongluo City, also chose the order to continue advancing.
"Keep aiming and wait for the order to shoot!"
Major Liu Mingyang, deputy head of the Shanhaiguan Regiment of the Anti-Japanese Army, lay on a battlement in the north wall of the north wing of the city, shouting and reminding the soldiers on the city wall: "Don't shoot, this distance is a waste of bullets!" β
Hearing Liu Mingyang's shout on the left city wall, He Changying nodded with satisfaction, this Liu Mingyang is growing towards a wise general day by day.
When I was in Jinzhou and Nanguanling, the shells and bullets in the hands of the anti-Japanese army were tens of millions.
The artillery shells stored in Dalian Bay are equivalent to seven or eight times the total number of artillery shells of the Japanese army on the navy and land; The stored bullets also exceeded the total number of bullets of the Japanese army and navy, so they could be squandered at will.
However, this is not the case at Shanhaiguan.
Now the entire Zhili, Ludong, everywhere is short of guns, guns, and bullets, this time the Beiyang Bureau squeezed out 3 million rounds of ammunition to the Shanhaiguan defense area, which can be said to have reached the limit.
Of the 3 million rounds of ammunition, He Changying, Xu Bangdao, and Jia Qisheng won 1.5 million rounds.
The Luyu Defense Army, two battalions at the mouth of the North Valley, entered the three cities and brought in about 300,000 rounds.
The remaining 1,500 Thunder Army, 3,000 Ludong Army, 1,000 Jiesheng Battalion, and 1,000 Mountain and Sea Banner Soldiers received 600,000 rounds.
The 2,000 Lu Yong led by Mei Dongyi only had more than 500 old guns in his hand before, but this time he divided 200 fast guns, and he also got 10 rounds of ammunition inside and out.
In other words, there are only 500,000 rounds of ammunition in Zhou Fu's Shanhaiguan Camp Office.
Moreover, Sheng Huaixuan has made it clear that the bullets produced below will also be equipped with Jinmen, Jingshi, and the Xiangchu battalions in the north, and before the first month of next year, there will not be a single bullet transported into Shanhaiguan.
You must know that the defense of the city is very bullet-consuming, especially the Qing army's indiscriminate shooting with repeating guns, and after a battle, the three cities outside the gate fired two or three hundred thousand bullets, which is not a problem at all.
"Qi Jiacai, you go and tell Xu Junmen, Jia Junmen, save bullets."
He Changying didn't want to say much to annoy, but listening to the gunfire in Dongluo City, if they fought like this, they didn't have to wait until the thirtieth day of the lunar month, and they would definitely run out of bullets before the New Year.
"Bang bangβ"
At this time, nearly 150 meters in front of the North Wing City, there was a sudden burst of gunfire.
The 1st and 2nd Brigades of the 16th Wing of the Japanese Army marched to the effective firing position, then lay down and began to shoot at the anti-Japanese troops on the city wall.
"Shoot!"
With Liu Mingyang's loud roar, gunfire also erupted on the north wall of the north wing of the city, and the enemy and us immediately began to shoot fiercely.
The eldest baby is only 16 years old this year, and in addition to his father who broke his leg while collecting medicine and climbing the mountain, and his mother, who is a cook for the landlord's family, there are three younger brothers and sisters below.
His mother entrusted the housekeeper of the landlord's family to help him find a guy in the tavern opened by the landlord's family in Lulong County.
Although it was hard, I could eat enough at every meal.
Especially the leftover meat dishes eaten by the drinkers, it made the big baby feel that even being an emperor was nothing more than that.
However, this good life came to an end a few days ago, when the owner of the tavern laughed and said that the reason why the big baby was able to come in as a partner was because her mother gave her body to the housekeeper of the landlord's house.
This knife, the big baby didn't dare to cut it down in the end.
He is not afraid of death, but afraid of the revenge that his parents, younger brothers and sisters will face if this knife goes down, but how can he live?
Poor people are cheap, they are not afraid of death, and they have even lived enough long ago and want to die.
It's just that I'm afraid that my family will be affected, or in order to support my family, I have to be a cow and a horse to survive.
The big baby was just afraid of affecting his family, so he didn't dare to kill these beasts, but he could choose to die!
On the way to the river, Da Wazi met the recruitment team of the anti-Japanese army, so he pressed his handprint, exchanged for 10 pieces of Guangyang, and became a recruit of the anti-Japanese army.
"Big baby, you're stupid, shoot quickly, shoot and hide!"
Liu Changgen, a veteran squad leader from the Sheng Army who squatted on the right side of the big baby and hit him with a buttress, fired a shot under the city wall, and quickly retracted his head back to the wall.
"Bang!"
A bullet came right at it, smashing the bricks into a splinter.
"Paralyzed, it's so mysterious that Lao Tzu will hang up!"
Liu Changgen hid behind the wall tiles with an excited face and shouted: "Paralysis, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you little friends!" β
While speaking, Liu Changgen stretched his head to the battlement again, hurriedly aimed at a target, and fired a 'bang'.
"Paralysis, left and right are just a death, Lao Tzu has long been tired of living!"
The big baby who was awakened roared loudly in his mouth, learning from the words he heard in the vegetable market, and shouted loudly: "Eighteen years later, he is a good man again!" β
While sticking his head to the battlement, he pulled the bolt of the gun according to the steps he had trained a few days ago and began to look for the early target.
"Okay, the big baby wants it!"
Hearing the bold words of the big baby, a little guy who didn't have any hair on his crotch, the soldiers in Liu Changgen's squad on both sides praised with a smile: "It won't take eighteen years, you are a good man now!" β
"Bang!"
The big baby aimed at a black hat and shot it out.
It's a pity that the bullet missed.
"Paralysis!"
The big baby scolded angrily, but with the shot, the vibration of the butt, the crisp sound of the bullet casing bouncing and falling under his feet, made the big baby's dead heart suddenly have a ripple of heavy life, as if the gun in his hand is the whole meaning of the rest of his life.
The big baby has a fierce face, pulls the bolt numbly, loads the bullet, and then slams steadily!
Unfortunately, it still missed.
However, the big baby was not discouraged in the slightest, and he knew that he would definitely be able to kill the black hat at 150 meters today.
"Bang!"
A bullet hit the wall next to the big baby, and the rubble flew down.
"Silly Bi, hide!"
Liu Changgen, who was hiding on the other side of the battlement, scolded angrily: "Do you really want to be a hero in eighteen years? β
"Bang!"
In the sight of the big baby, the black hat that made him shoot the third time suddenly bounced in the grass, shook off the hat, and revealed the big head that had been beaten to pieces.
"Squad leader, I hit him, I killed him!"
The big baby jumped up happily, but was kicked down by Liu Changgen, and scolded angrily: "Do you really want to die?" β
"Squad leader, I hit him, I killed him! I don't want to die again! β
The big baby sat on the ground, holding the Muramasa Type 18 single-shot rifle tightly with both hands, and his eyes were full of sparkling light.
