Seeing that it was difficult to gain the upper hand in the artillery battle, the Yi army and the Zhenbian army immediately changed their tactics, and Ma Yukun and Yukun each sent two battalions, totaling nearly 2,000 people, to launch a siege on Yuema Mountain.

After a battle in Kaesong, the combat effectiveness of the Yi army has been significantly improved, and the individual combat ability is basically the same as that of the Japanese army, but the upward attack at the bottom of the mountain, the situation is unfavorable, the Japanese army launched a fierce counterattack under the cover of the fortifications, and the heavy machine guns spit out tongues of fire in various key passes, and the Yi army continued to fall, and the dead were everywhere.

The town border army was even more miserable, it was driven down the hill by the Japanese army, it was already demoralized, and it launched an early back attack, which was even more unbearable, and the Japanese army on the mountain directly counterattacked and drove the town border army down.

More than an hour has passed, the sky has gradually brightened, the first large-scale attack organized by the Yi army and the town border army was repulsed, Ma Yukun looked at the subordinates who suffered heavy casualties, his eyes were on fire, it was all Yukun's fault, but his own Yi army wanted to play here, just over an hour, the Yi army had more than 200 casualties, the last battle of Kaesong, the Yi army had a total of less than 200 casualties, a world of difference!

Yukun on the side was even more anxious, the army on the edge of the town had killed and injured more than 300 people, if he couldn't take the Prancing Horse Mountain at noon, he would be unlucky, and he lost the strategic place, even if Iktanga wanted to protect himself, it was useless.

Yukun was no longer in the mood to quarrel with Ma Yukun, so he came to Ma Yukun and said: "Master Ma, it was all the fault of the previous ones, you forgive me, now the situation is urgent, you are a famous general in the Qing Dynasty, think of a way, what should I do?" ”

Ma Yukun took a deep breath, knowing that now was not the time for a battle of wills, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Yukun, there is no other way now, even if we fill it with people, we must take back the Prancing Horse Mountain, and we must not give the Japanese army a chance to breathe, we will not stop attacking!" Fierce attack, ordered the two artillery battalions to concentrate all the artillery fire, continue to bombard the Prancing Horse Mountain, and blow up all the fortifications on the Prancing Horse Mountain, the Japanese army has no support, it will be difficult to withstand our attack, we are combined in two places, there are more than 7,000 people, and the number of Japanese troops seems to be only 4,000, even if we use people, we must also snatch back the Prancing Horse Mountain! ”

Yukun nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." The order was given to all the heavy artillery, concentrate fire, and shell the Prancing Horse Mountain. Come on, organize three large battalions, and continue the attack! ”

Ma Yukun on this side also began to mobilize elite infantry and start a new round of attacks.

On the Prancing Horse Mountain, Hasegawa looked indifferent, and now his Yuanshan detachment, the loss is not small, just sneak attack on the Prancing Horse Mountain, injuring hundreds of people, just now in the big battle, hundreds of casualties, there are less than 4,000 people, but he knows that he must hold on until the main force in the direction of Seoul arrives.

Hasegawa ordered the Japanese not to rush into battle, as long as they only held the main road.

The two armies of the Qing Dynasty fought to the death on the Prancing Horse Mountain.

Under the fierce artillery fire of the Qing army, the Japanese fortifications on the Prancing Horse Mountain were gradually blown up and lost, and the Japanese soldiers were also killed and injured by shell fragments and flying rocks, but the Japanese troops under the command of Hasegawa were unusually calm and not chaotic, and all of them were behind the bunker, shooting.

The strength of the Yi Army and the five large battalions of the Zhenbian Army, with a strength of 2,000 people, rushed towards the top of the Prancing Horse Mountain again.

The Japanese troops behind the bunker saw that the Qing army was approaching, and the heavy machine guns and rifles opened fire in turn, suppressing the Qing army in the middle of the mountain, and the impact was always less than 100 meters.

Ma Yukun and Yu Kunkong jumped like thunder, there was no way, there was an attack that had no effect, and the Qing army slowly withdrew.

Nie Shicheng in Kaecheng is also very anxious now, the Prancing Horse Mountain is lost, but he knows the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, especially the artillery, the combat effectiveness is even stronger, even if Zhang Yi is in Japan, he used the blue wolf to destroy the Japanese artillery position at night, and only then did he defeat the fifth division of the Japanese army in one fell swoop, otherwise I don't know how long it will take.

Now, use the blue wolf again? First of all, the time is wrong, it's just morning, there is no cover of night, no matter how powerful the blue wolf is, it is only the role of cannon fodder, secondly, the army of Seoul is about to arrive, the killer weapon of the blue wolf, Nie Shicheng really doesn't want to take it out so early, and the killing weapon is generally used when the winner is decided.

At this time, the scouts of the blue wolf came to report that the vanguard army of the Japanese army had arrived twenty miles south of Kaesong, and it was only five miles away from the inscription camp to the south, and a battle could start at any time.

As he was talking, the cannon fire in the south of Kaesong sounded intensively, and when it came, Liu Shengxiu led the inscription battalion to start a fierce battle with the Japanese forward.

Nie Shicheng ordered: "Send an order to Wei Rugui and Yao Liangcai, ready to support Liu Shengxiu's troops at any time, and order Liu Shengxiu to hold Songyue Mountain to the death, and not let the main force of the Japanese army take a step forward!" ”

When the Qing army was urgently mobilized and deployed for battle.

Thirty miles south of Kaesong, here is the headquarters of Daesan Rock, and Limi Shangwen is standing on the side of Daesan Rock, and the scouts around him have just sent back the news and reported the battle situation north of Kaesong to Dashan Rock and Tachimi Shangwen.

Dashan Yan looked at Limi Shangwen and said: "Limi-kun, now Hasegawa-kun has occupied the Prancing Horse Mountain as planned, and has successfully attracted the main force of the town's border army and the Yi army, the two Qing armies of seven or eight thousand people are besieging the Prancing Horse Mountain, I want to use Hasegawa-kun's ability to stay in the Prancing Horse Mountain for two days and nights, it is not a problem, next, what are we going to do?" ”

Seeing Shang Wen's sinister smile, he said: "Now that the Yi army and the Zhenbian army have been attracted to the north of Kaesong, attacking the Prancing Horse Mountain, then now the flank to the west of Kaesong has been completely exposed, Ma Yukun only left a large battalion to defend, our army only needs a charge, it can be completely defeated, and then face Kaesong and launch an attack on Kaesong, this is a wonderful opportunity, Your Excellency Commander, I suggest that the tenth brigade led by Da Qiangjun to contain the three Japanese troops directly south of Kaesong, our army will make a detour and march urgently, Directly to the west of the city, with lightning speed, quickly defeated Ma Yukun's department, and then concentrated heavy artillery to attack the city! ”

Da Shanyan nodded and replied: "Okay, immediately see you, with your strategy, I think our army of nearly 20,000 people will storm Kaesong, and the defense of Kaesong will definitely not last much time!" ”

Seeing Shang Wen said with a smile: "Your Excellency Commander, our attack on the city is fake, the real purpose is to attract the Qing army from all departments to come to help, we can set up an ambush in the middle, and the Qing army that will come to the aid will be broken by each and outnumbered, and the tens of thousands of Qing troops will probably be buried here!" ”
