302 Looking at Tiger Mountain from afar
"Guozhang, you're still too young;"
Nie Shicheng sighed and looked at the torches in the distance and said: "If we say this, we know that we are dedicated to the country, but what will others think of us?" If this word reaches Liu Junmen, he can even take advantage of the situation to withdraw directly from Yizhou City, can you think of this kind of consequence? ”
Feng Guozhang broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, if this is really the case, if the defense line of the Yalu River collapses, wouldn't he have harmed the military gate and become the next 'Wei Rugui' with a black cauldron!
"Let's take a break, if the Japanese cross the river from Hushan, it would be best, but if they cross the river from Jiulian City, we will support it with all our might; Alas—"
Nie Shicheng sighed again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This Qing Dynasty, how can I say hello?
At this time, except for the vigilant sentinels, the rest of the soldiers of the riverside team of the Korean reinforcement army entered a deep dream.
Because the Yalu River turned a small arc in the southeast direction, the torches in the direction of Uiju were not discovered by the reinforcements.
There was silence in the camp.
Only the bubbling river not far away, and the occasional night cry of some wild beasts and mountain birds.
At 0:00 a.m. the next day, the 2nd Squadron of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, the vanguard of the Japanese army, arrived at the city of Uiju in the dark.
The Japanese cavalry then entered the gate with the door wide open, closed the north gate, and conducted a carpet search from north to south in all corners of the city.
Before Kimura Shige's march from Yongzhou, Naofumi gave him an order to 'clear the castle'.
It was demanded that if there was no trace of the Qing army in Yizhou at this time, all civilians in the city except for officials and landlords would be driven out of Yizhou City.
Prevent Qing spies from infiltrating it.
At this time, in Yizhou City, the wealthy families, the officials and city guards in the city, and the civilians who had a little way to the city, had already gone to Shuifeng and Shuozhou upstream, or went to nearby villages and towns to take refuge.
There are only a few urban poor people who have nowhere to go, and in fear and fear, wait day by day for those legendary fierce gods and evil soldiers.
As a result, it turned out to be true!
The first thing the Japanese soldiers killed in these days when they entered the city was actually to kick open the doors of their houses, expel all the people from the house with guns and horsewhips, and then drive them out of the city.
And in addition to the clothes they were wearing, these poor people were not allowed to take away a copper plate, a grain of grain.
For a while, the entire city of Uiju was in a commotion, and the cry shook the sky.
In the cold night wind, groups of men and women, the elderly, small children, nursing babies,——
They were all brutally forced out of the south gate of Yiju City, standing in the dark cold wind, crying!
"Smack, smack—"
There were sporadic gunshots in the city of Uiju, which were shot and killed by the Japanese soldiers who dared to resist.
In order to save bullets, more Japanese soldiers directly stabbed those who resisted and disobeyed with bayonets one by one.
The commotion lasted about an hour and a half before it subsided.
At this time, in the city of Yiju, except for the Japanese army, there was no one alive!
When the gunshots rang out in the city of Uiju, the poor Korean people piled up at the gate of the southern city immediately came to their senses.
These dog-trough Japanese soldiers are not those city defense soldiers in North Korea who can only eat and take cards.
It's not like breaking into the house and sitting on a stool like an uncle, wanting to eat meat, drinking wine, and going to pick up your pants when you see a beautiful aunt~ Get a Qing soldier.
No matter how evil they do, they will never shoot and kill people easily.
And these beasts are obviously a group of beasts that kill people without blinking!
After thinking about this clearly, the poor Koreans who surrounded the gate of the southern city turned around and fled with pale faces, for fear that the beasts inside would kill and run outside the city to do evil.
Soon after, in the mountains and forests far outside the city of Uiju, small fires lit up dots and places.
The poor North Koreans, whose clothes were patched with patches, lit firewood in the mountains and forests to ward off the cold of the night.
Wait for the dawn.
At three o'clock in the morning at night, the main force of the 10th Brigade of the Japanese Army arrived at Yiju City, and immediately saw Shang Wen directly go up to the North Castle Tower, looking at the dark other side of the river.
"That's Jiulian City, that's the Danghe River, that's Hushan, that's Koushui Town, and it's opposite the Anping River Estuary."
A group of Japanese generals from Naofumi Tachimi, Tomiyasu Jiyan, Tomioka Sanzo,—— stood on top of the city wall and listened to Lin Taro's instructions.
"It is reported that all the big officials and soldiers in Uiju City have disappeared, and all civilians have been expelled from Uiju."
Kimura hurriedly climbed the castle wall and reported to Tachimi Naobun.
"Is the telegraph room still there?"
Lijian Shangwen was most concerned about this thing at this time, only when the telegraph was unobstructed, the First Army and the Second Army, which was estimated to have been formed, and the Navy Combined Fleet, formed three sharp blades in Liaodong, and stabbed the Qing Dynasty one by one in an orderly manner.
And he had to tell the Hiroshima base camp about the strange soldiers he saw in the first half of the night as soon as possible, so that the country could ask the Western countries if there were any Western soldiers on the banks of the Yalu River.
"The telegraph room was burned down by the Qing army, and the telegraph line was also destroyed, and it is not known where the line is buried."
When he said these words, Kimura Shige secretly scolded himself in his heart for being stupid, why didn't he leave a few North Korean civilians behind.
Even if they didn't know the exact location of the telegraph line, they should know the general direction.
"Masao Baba, your department immediately starts searching for the telegraph line, and there is no need to restore communication as soon as possible."
Immediately saw that Shangwen gave an order to the captain of the Fifth Engineer Brigade, Masao Baba.
"Hey!"
Masao Baba roared and strode down the wall.
"You'an Zhiyan, you have a brigade to be responsible for the defense of Yiju City and the vigilance outside the city."
"Hey!"
The 12th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, Wing Commander Tomoyasu Nobu Nakasa, loudly accepted the order.
"Kimura Shigeshosa, your cavalry will start tomorrow to reconnoiter the banks of the Yalu River from Yiju to the upper reaches of Changdian; The first is to find out which places are defended by the Qing army, and the second is to find out the situation along the river, find every crossing point, and wait for an opportunity to conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance on the other side of the river. ”
"Hey!"
Kimura Shigeya yelled and accepted the order.
"All the armies have worked hard; However, this kind of hard work is worth it, and the occupation of Uiju means that the empire has completely occupied the two thousand miles of Korea and the mountains; Except for the troops on duty, the rest of the units immediately camped. ”
Seeing Shang Wen staring at the dark and towering Tiger Mountain in the first quarter of the moon, Mougins felt a little uncomfortable.
This Tiger Mountain is like a tiger entrenched in the Yalu River in the Qing Dynasty, staring at North Korea at all times.
That kind of invisible and faint coercion makes people always feel a slight madness in their hearts unconsciously.
"When I finish Jiulian City, I must climb this Tiger Mountain and trample this tiger under my feet! When the time comes, will you be willing to kick this Tiger Mountain with me and plant our Oriental flag? ”
When he immediately saw Shangwen's eyes looking at Tiger Mountain, the eyes of the Japanese generals also looked over.
Immediately, there was that kind of extremely uncomfortable, suppressed depression.
At this time, when they heard the arrogant words of the brigade commander, everyone shouted: "I am willing to climb Tiger Mountain with the general and plant the Oriental flag!" ”
