"Battalion Commander Hao, how do you fight?"

At this time, Yin Desheng, who got the news, also hurriedly walked over with his five sentinels, and everyone had a solemn face. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Poof——, it's not a big deal, everyone just do what they agreed last night."

Hao Tiansheng sent out a circle of cigarettes, lit them and said: "Battalion Commander Yin defends the west, north, and two directions, and only one sentry can be placed on the earthen wall at a time, too many don't scare the Japanese army away, and the rest are cooking on fire, and changing guns indiscriminately; Remember not to plug in the city gates, just cover them up, and when the time is almost right, let them in, and catch turtles in the urn. ”

"With such a big fog, we can't see the fireworks set off by Captain Lu."

Ma Decao frowned and said: "It is believed that the fireworks of the head of the regiment are indeed novel and ingenious, but in case of fog, rain and snow, it is completely ineffective." ”

"Hehe, let's leave them alone; Fight for a while, and when the brothers have eaten enough to change guards, they will let the Japanese soldiers come in and close the door and beat the dogs; ”

Hao Tiansheng said with a smile: "Open the door early and eat meat early, if you don't like it, if there is really no fog today, as soon as the fireworks are set off on Lu Tie's legs, how can the Japanese army not suspect it, and will stupidly burrow into the pocket of Pulandian, so that our brothers are happy?" If that's the case, we don't even think we can even drink the soup. ”

At 6:45 a.m., in the vast fog, the Japanese troops arrived at the village of Polan, two miles east of Pulandian, where dogs barked.

The villagers who opened the door to watch were all so frightened that their faces changed color and hurriedly plugged in the courtyard door, and found a hemp rope to tie up the dog's mouth of their native dog.

"The infantry attacked the eastern city, and the cavalry fired guerrilla fire on the remaining three sides to prevent the Qing army in the city from abandoning the city and fleeing; Attack! ”

Akiyama Yoshiya looked at the two-meter-high earthen city wall of Pulandian, which was faintly dense in the fog not far away, and gave the order to attack.

"Run at a constant pace!"

Captain Fuji Kiyoshi, squadron leader of the 6th Squadron of the 3rd Brigade of the 15th Wing of the Japanese Infantry Takasaki, shouted loudly: "The first squad will attack the left city wall, the second team will attack the right city wall, and the rest of the troops will break through the city gate." ”

"The first squad of cavalry blocked the south city, the second squad blocked the west gate, and the rest of the squad blocked the north gate; Offensive! ”

Captain Takaji Iwamoto, the leader of the 4th Squadron of the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Japanese Army, also immediately issued an attack order to the cavalry squadron.

"Click-"

"Yu—"

The horse's hooves in the early morning broke the tranquility of Pulandian, and in the sound of the Oriental bantam warhorse, the offensive and defensive battle of Pulandian officially began.

Although the Japanese cavalry wanted to bypass Dongcheng, relying on their horsepower, they still reached the visual range of about 150 meters in the white fog one step ahead.

"Bang, bang!"

Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, the Renzi soldiers all waited for a long time with their hearts, and when they saw the faint shadow of the Japanese cavalry in the white fog, they raised their guns and shot.

"Shoot close, shoot close!"

Seeing that the Qing army in the city had already prepared, and it was not about to collapse and abandon the city and flee for their lives, Akiyama Yoshiya Shaozuo, who personally led the cavalry to attack, was slightly stunned.

Then he listened carefully to the density of the gunshots, and felt that there were about 100 Qing troops on the north gate, and the expression on his face suddenly relaxed.

On such an average basis, it is estimated that there are only three or four hundred Qing troops in the city, and these Qing troops are shooting indiscriminately when the imperial cavalry is so far away, which is obviously a miscellaneous weak brigade.

"Bang, bang—"

The third squad of the Japanese army, which was responsible for the blockade of the northern city, ran to a distance of about eighty or ninety meters from the earthen city wall, and then rode its horse parallel to the city wall, and while jogging, raised its gun and shot the head that emerged from the earthen city wall of Pulandian.

"Ahh

Although the strength of the Qing and Japanese armies in the battle in Beicheng was roughly equal, the more accurate shooting of the Japanese army still beat Yin Desheng's left outpost and complained bitterly, and after only a while, three people were shot and planted on the city wall.

"Don't retract your head, and if you find it, you will be shot by military law!"

Seeing that some soldiers timidly let go of a shot, they retracted their heads back to the earthen city wall, and then slowly loaded the bullets, and repeated the empty release like this, Yin De, who came to supervise the battle in person, scolded victoriously, and whipped the horse whip in his hand to those cowards: "Stick out your head, otherwise you will be shot immediately after the battle in a while!" ”

"Bang, bang—"

At this time, the gunfire of the eastern, southern, and western cities rang out in turn, and the Japanese infantry and cavalry in the city reinforced the Korean army, and the Renzi army fired at each other, and broke out in an all-round way.

In the main attack of the Japanese army in Dongcheng, the reinforcement army only invested half a company of troops at a time.

In the face of nearly three times the Japanese infantry, the soldiers of the Korean reinforcement army all lay firmly on the city wall with rifles, shooting at the Japanese army, and soldiers on both sides continued to be shot and fell.

However, the strong perseverance of the Korean reinforcements forced the Japanese infantry to be suppressed fifty or sixty meters in front of the city wall, and they could not rush through.

"Change the guard and eat!"

Hao Tiansheng personally stood on the east city wall, raised his gun and shot, until Cao Kun urged twice, then reluctantly jumped off the wooden frame next to the city wall, and handed over the east city to Cao Kun to lead the troops to defend.

"Brothers, hit these grandchildren for me!"

Cao Kun stayed in the Ma Yukun Department of the Yi Army for a long time, opened his mouth to say 'brothers', held the hair-colored fast gun in his hand, and with a 'bang', he shot down a Japanese soldier who was squatting on the ground outside the city and shooting.

The Qing and Japanese sides exchanged guns in the gradually thinning fog outside the city wall, and the Qing army in the city could not retreat the Japanese army outside the city, and the Japanese army outside the city could not rush under the city wall for a while.

The commander of the Japanese army's northward advance detachment, Akiyama Yoshiya, soon rode around the small Pulandian and turned back to the eastern city, and saw that the infantry was being suppressed and unable to advance an inch 60 meters below the city.

Akiyama Yoshiya was suddenly furious, drew the command knife on his waist and shouted: "The third squad all stand up and attack the city gate; First, the second squad fire suppression! ”

"Hey!"

Lieutenant Takeo Fujioka, the leader of the third squad of the Japanese infantry, stood up with a resolute roar on his face: "Forward! ”

"Long live the Emperor!"

The remaining 53 Japanese soldiers of the third squad of the Japanese army, who were responsible for breaking the city, carried a simple long ladder made of fine sand rods and thick hemp rope, and ran towards the east gate with a shout.

"The Japanese are coming, retreat, retreat!"

Cao Kun lay on the city wall and pretended to shout, regardless of whether the Japanese soldiers heard it or not, and then the heads of the Qing soldiers lying on the earthen city wall disappeared one after another.

"Qing Pig has broken his guts, stand up to attack, stand up to attack!"

Seeing that the Qing troops on the wall of the earthen lump had disappeared one after another, the leaders of the first and second squads of the Japanese infantry stood up with great joy at the same time and ordered to charge.

- This is the state that the Qing army should be in from the legend of the First Army, and when it sees the imperial army, it should flee from the wind; The previous performance was simply too abnormal to be!

At the same time, the Qing army on the north, south, and west city walls of Pulandian stopped shooting almost simultaneously and disappeared without a trace.

The Japanese cavalry who saw this situation were overjoyed, and they shouted and drove their horses to the thin broken wooden gate.

"The Qing army is over, I didn't expect the Qing army here to be so tenacious; However, although there is a lot of loss, Pulandian belongs to the Oriental Empire! ”

Akiyama Yoshiya was immediately outside the east gate, looking at his subordinates flocking to the city wall, and he was full of ambition to think about the fruits of victory that were about to arrive, and his heart suddenly jumped heavily.
