In the early morning of November 12, 1894 in the Western calendar, it was still a rare sunny day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As the temperature rises, the snow has begun to melt slowly, indicating that this premature snow will not melt until the following spring, as was the case with the snowfall in December.

This is already the sixth day of the defense of Jinzhou, and after four days of intense transportation, nearly half of the military resources of the Dalian Bay arsenal have been transported.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, the Japanese warship group anchored at Xiaoshan Island outside the mouth of the bay began to raise the anchor in an orderly manner.

The 2nd Guerrilla Group then sailed to the waters of the old island in the west to replace the 1st Guerrilla Group of Japanese warships on guard there.

At 7 o'clock, under the command of the signal soldiers, the mine-sweeping detachments slowly entered Dalian Bay, and then headed for their respective target sea areas.

At 7:45, the 1st Guerrilla Force of the Japanese Army arrived at the mouth of Dalian Bay and then sailed into Dalian Bay.

The Japanese Combined Fleet's main squadron and its auxiliary ship groups also slowly sailed into Dalian Bay.

In Laolong Island, the Fort of Monk Island, all the soldiers were waiting for the Japanese ships to sail into range.

"Brothers, aim at me, it's still the same sentence, it's a big deal that you'll be a good man again in eighteen years!"

Xiao Ligang, who was in charge of the West Fort of Monk Island, roared and said: "Yesterday, He Dutong said that all our pension treatment is the same as that of the anti-Japanese army; If you die, you can have a stable place, and your family can enjoy food and clothing without worry, and it is glorious, and we will not blush when we see our ancestors in the underworld, and we can cast a good baby in the next life,——"

Xiao Ligang pulled his neck back and forth and shouted: "-Such a beautiful thing, what are you afraid of death!" ”

"Eighteen years later, I'm a good man again!"

Although these men who are poor in words are still afraid of the shadow of death, they think that if their parents and relatives are supported after death, and they die for the righteousness of the imperial court, they may be able to vote for a good family in the next life.

In addition, if anyone is a bad seed now, not only will his reputation stink in the township in the future, but Li Bohu's god-killing knife behind him is not to be played, so everyone is roaring with a crazy face.

He Changying's quasi-brother-in-law, Jiang Muchen and Pan Jinshan, stood together looking at each other, their mouths as bitter as Huang Lian.

The soldiers in their hands have been completely disrupted by the staff headquarters under He Changying, according to the platoon system, and they have been evenly distributed to the five coastal batteries in Dalian Bay, and they are not allowed to evacuate the dangerous situation, and the two of them have been forcibly assigned to the East Fort to supervise the army.

Not to mention the supervising army, now the two of them feel that their legs are weak when they see the group of ships coming in at the mouth of Dalian Bay.

If it weren't for the inspection points set up by Li Bohu at various intersections on the peninsula, they would have slipped away a long time ago.

I heard that Zhao Huaiye's nephew, Zhao Liuping, was beaten into a sieve by this demon with a gun.

At this time, it was the time for the gun to shoot the first bird, and they didn't want to show their heads, so they were slaughtered by Li Bohu.

"Paralyzed, He Changying, this little bastard, he is a communiqué personal vendetta!"

Jiang Muchen's face flushed angrily: "Uncle is also confused, let this kid rectify us at will!" ”

Pan Jinshan sat weakly on a cement pier, and said with lost eyes: "Yes, it's too late to say anything now, so I can only resign myself to fate and pray for many blessings." ”

"The Japanese ship is about to enter the firing range, and all gun emplacements are in place and ready, waiting for the order to shoot!"

Seeing that the Japanese warship was about to reach the best firing range, the former commander of the Ming Army Fort in Dalian Bay, Guo Guoquan, roared.

After the eight posts of the motherland were assigned to Lian Shun, except for the two posts of Zhou Dingchen, the rest of the eight posts were coastal defense artillery for many years.

When the Motherland Quan led the soldiers to transport cannonballs to earn silver, he was despised and ridiculed by the soldiers and the local people all the way, as a man with blood and steel, he could stand this bird anger.

Especially yesterday afternoon, the seriously wounded, killed soldier of the battery was carried to the field hospital by the arsenal.

This tragic battle shocked all the soldiers and civilians who came to transport the munitions, and even more made the few sentry artillerymen who originally belonged to the Dalian Fort unable to raise their heads.

In a sense, these valiant soldiers were defending them against the Japanese again.

So the motherland roared: "Who wants to go with me to fight the Japanese!" ”

Immediately, there was a crowd of echoes, and by this morning, a total of 365 heroes came.

Of these 365 heroes, only more than 100 belong to the original coastal defense artillery, and the rest are the hot-blooded soldiers of the Lushun Army.

This time, He Changying once again showed his arrogance and domineering, and directly put these 300 people in the old dragon head fort and formed a battalion, called the 'warrior battalion'.

And the compilation of these soldiers is equivalent to all the treatment of the anti-Japanese army.

"Ready—"

At the Huangshan Fort, seeing that the Japanese ship group had sailed to the effective firing range, Cheng Moyi raised his right hand high, and he couldn't help but preemptively fire the cannon in advance.

The artillerymen at all the gun positions were nervous, and they felt that their hearts were in their throats.

"Put!"

Cheng Moyi waved his arm suddenly.

"Put!"

The signal soldiers at each artillery position immediately waved down the colored flags in their hands.

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

Suddenly, the white fog was filled with white fog on the Huangshan Fort, the sound of artillery was deafening, and more than 10 hot projectiles of various calibers roared towards the Japanese ship group in the bay.

Huge columns of water sprung up around the Japanese ships, and although the momentum was staggering, the results were disappointing.

"Reset each gun position, reload, aim!"

Cheng Moyi's swarthy face twisted and roared: "Aim, aim, aim and shoot!" ”

The United Oriental Fleet, the flagship of the Hashidate.

Yuhiro Ito, who had been fed a mouthful of filth yesterday, stood on the repaired bridge, looked at the Huangshan Battery, which was the first to fire, and began to give orders.

"Order, after the ship group and the auxiliary ship group enter the 7 km range, they will fire freely; Matsushima, Nishikyo Maru, attack Monk Island East Battery, Itsukushima, Yaeyama, attack West Battery, Hashidate, Chiyoda attack Middle Battery. ”

At the same time, the commander of the 1st Guerrilla Group of the Combined Fleet, Kozo Tsubei, also began to issue operational orders: "Order, Yoshino, Akitsuzhou, attack the old dragon head battery, Gao Qianhui, Naniwa, attack the Huangshan battery; Today's battle will inevitably defeat these pigs! ”

"Put!"

On the Huangshan Battery, the second salvo began immediately, and the scorching projectiles screamed again and pounced on the Japanese ship group.

At this moment, it seemed that time had stood still, and all the soldiers of the five batteries were staring at the Japanese ship group.

Several columns of snow-white water rose high above the sea.

And I didn't shoot -

"Shot, shot!"

In the frenzied chanting of the crowd, I saw a high flame rising from the Itsukushima ship, and then a fire ignited.

"Yaga, save the bomb!"

A solid bullet fired from the Huangshan Fort happened to hit a 120mm caliber flowering bullet on the Itsukushima.

The violent Shimose gunpowder was blunt and immediately detonated the shell in the warhead, and the flying shrapnel and scorching flames killed the three Japanese soldiers next to him instantly, and shot the six Japanese soldiers nearby all over their bodies and screamed with blood.

And the flowing flames, billowing yellow smoke, bounced towards the surrounding flowers.

Seeing this scene, the captain of the Itsukushima, Yokoo Michiyu Daisa, was so frightened that his courage was about to break.
