"Kill the Wouldn't Be Killed!"

After listening to Liu Kunyi's order, the 3,000 Qing troops in the main city of Shanhaiguan all rushed to the edge of the north city wall, and the crowd picked up their rifles, raised their guns, and shot towards the city.

Under the Shanhaiguan City, the two squadrons of the 17th and 18th Brigades of the 4th Wing of the Japanese Army, at the cost of nearly 30 soldiers, finally approached the gate of Shanhaiguan.

"Yo Xi, rush to the city gate, establish a defensive line, and stop the Qing army from fleeing south!"

The 17th squadron leader, Captain Muto Nobuyoshi, saw that he was about to rush to the gate of Shanhaiguan and yelled with joy.

At this time, Muto Nobuyoshi saw the city wall above, and there was actually a Qing army's head that dared to show it, and he was still shouting something in his mouth, and a 'bang' shot over, it blew the head of the Qing army who didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Captain sharp!"

Seeing that Muto Nobuyoshi's shot was so ferocious, the Japanese troops of the 17th Squadron shouted and cheered, and at the same time raised their guns and shot at the anti-Japanese army at the city gate.

"Build a defense, block, block!"

At this time, Xiao Ligang led the 335 artillery soldiers of the artillery battalion and happened to rush out of the narrow two-meter-wide Shanhaiguan Gate.

Seeing that there were large Japanese troops rushing on the left and right, Xiao Ligang yelled and ordered the troops to immediately establish a defensive front outside the city gate.

"Attack!"

The 17th Squadron Leader of the Japanese Army, Captain Nobuyoshi Muto, and the 18th Squadron Leader, Captain Yoshitake Matsuura, both shouted at the same time and ordered the troops to attack.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

Under the suppression of more than 300 Japanese troops, the artillery of Xiao Ligang's battalion was blocked at the gate of Shanhaiguan, and a large number of troops and artillery trucks could not get out of the city gate.

"He's a hemp wall, such a wide city gate is blocked so narrowly, there are Lao Tzu's anti-Japanese troops outside the gate, who does he want to block?"

The artillery soldiers who were blocked in the city gate and couldn't get out scolded one after another.

"Rush!"

At this time, a gap was reserved from the breastwork wall 400 meters to the north, and a large number of Qing soldiers wearing old-style military uniforms rushed out with rifles.

"Yaga! Stick to the Great Wall and build defenses; Reinforcements will be coming soon! ”

As soon as Muto Nobuyoshi saw the Qing army rushing out, he hurriedly ordered his troops to cling to the Great Wall and establish a defensive ring in a semi-ring.

"Retreat, retreat! Don't stick to the walls and retreat in a north-western direction! ”

The 18th squadron leader, Captain Mitake Matsuura, was far smarter than Muto Nobuyoshi, and when he saw that if he continued to entangle, he would probably fall into a three-sided attack to death, so he hurriedly ordered his soldiers to flee.

"Yaga! Matsuura, this coward with insufficient pigs and dogs! ”

Muto Nobuyoshi saw that the 18th Squadron attacking from the west of the city gate was deserted and fled, and he was so angry that he yelled and scolded: "I must kill you after the war!" ”

"Brothers, the Japanese army is scared, fight!"

Seeing this scene, whether it was Xiao Ligang at the gate of the city, or Zhou Zhongshengying, the Gong Guard who led the troops to rescue, they were all bold and shot bravely.

"Defense, defense!"

Muto Nobuyoshi was yelling desperately when he suddenly heard a shout overhead.

"Bang bang bang-" was accompanied by numerous gunshots.

He looked up in shock, only to see that the Qing army, which was as timid as a mouse just now, above his head, crowded the two-mile-long city wall, and raised their guns and shot at them.

"It's over—"

Muto Nobuyoshi shouted in disgrace, and the future Oriental Marshal was blown up by a rifle on the top of his head, a shot of retribution.

"Shoot back!"

Seeing that the squadron leader was headshot, the Japanese soldiers of the 17th Squadron were all desperate, and carried out the final dying shooting towards Xiao Ligang's battalion, Zhou Zhongsheng's battalion, and the Jiangnan soldiers above their heads.

"Captain, I'll lead the 3rd Brigade to kill all these clear dogs!"

Minoru Ono, the commander of the 3rd Brigade of the 6th Wing, who was rushing through the gap in the east of the city, saw the Japanese troops trapped and dead under the city wall two miles to the west, and yelled at Tsukamoto Katsuka Nakasa for orders.

"Baga, the combined attack of the three cities outside the gate and the two city wall fronts of the main city of Shanhaiguan, how many lives of imperial warriors do you have to fill? Don't fight along the way when your troops enter the customs, directly attack the main city of Shanhaiguan and annihilate them! ”

"Hey!"

Minoru Ono shouted: "The 3rd Brigade will follow me to attack the main city, and all the Qing troops will be killed!" ”

"Yaga! Attack, attack! Yaga ——,Retreat, retreat, surround them from below, I'm going to hang them all-"

Captain Saburo Inagawa, the staff officer of the 3rd Division, who led two squads to climb the broken wall to attack, was beaten by the dense guns of the Thunder Army on the narrow wall of six meters wide, and ordered the team to retreat from the Great Wall with grief and indignation.

"Run!"

The remaining 30 or so Japanese soldiers on the city wall stood up one after another, turned around and fled, and were calmly killed by the dense lifting of guns.

At this time, the 159 men of the 17th Squadron of the Japanese Army, who were hiding under the city wall for defense, were pointed at thousands of rifles and fired fiercely, and in less than four minutes, Lisuo was completely annihilated.

"Get out!"

Liu Kunyi's cold face finally showed a smile, and he yelled and ordered the troops to go down the city wall and go out.

"Go down the city wall and get out!"

Suddenly, there was a shout on the north wall of the main city of Shanhaiguan.

"Run into town! Run! ”

At this time, Minoru Ono had already led nearly 1,000 Japanese troops from the 3rd Brigade to the south gate of the main city of Shanhaiguan and rushed towards the north gate.

"The Japanese soldiers are coming! The Japanese soldiers are coming! ”

By the time Ono Minoru led his troops to the north gate of Shanhaiguan, only half of the 3,000 Qing troops had left the pass, and what was even worse was that all the generals had gone out of the city earlier.

The Qing troops piled up at the gate of the city were shocked, and while exclaiming, they desperately rushed towards the narrow gate that was only two meters wide, and none of the Qing soldiers thought of forming a defensive line to shoot with guns.

"Humph! Pigs! ”

A sneer erupted from Minoru Ono's mouth, and he shouted and ordered, "Shoot!" ”

"The Uyi shot, the Uyi shot!"

Suddenly, the Qing army at the gate of the city squeezed even harder, and they rushed to the death.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

"Ahh

The Japanese soldiers who had already rushed over raised their guns and fired fiercely, and the Qing troops on the periphery screamed and died of bullets one after another.

On that day, the corpses of the Qing army piled up at the north gate of Shanhaiguan, and the blood flowed like a river.

After the incident, the Japanese army cleaned up a total of 681 corpses of Qing soldiers in this small area.

In addition to those who were shot and killed, there were at least more than 100 Qing soldiers who were squeezed to death and trampled to death by their own comrades!

Upper town on the eastern slope of Cape Mountain.

Wang Liansan, the commander of the Ludong Army, stood at the break on the mountainside, looking at the fire of the battle in the east, and his heart changed color in horror because he had more than enough strength.

In his sight, the Great Wall in the east was cut into several pieces by the Japanese army, and countless Qing troops were trapped on it, surrounded by the Japanese army and shot.

A large number of Qing troops on the city wall jumped off the city wall six or seven meters high in despair, either fell to death or fell half to death, and were calmly killed by the Japanese army, and only a few lucky soldiers were able to jump off the city wall unharmed and limped south.

On Huanxi Ridge, Weiyuan City was already in flames, and the 3,000 soldiers of Lian Shun and Li Guangjiu were being chased and shot by the Japanese army all over the mountain.

To the south of the Great Wall, Wei Guangtao, Tan Biaozhong, and Wu Yuankai's troops under the city were desperately fleeing in the direction of Yongping Mansion.

However, the thousands of Japanese cavalry who rushed from the direction of the old dragon's head, one team with bright broadswords chased southward, and one went straight west and then went south around the edge of the Shihe Reservoir under Jiaoshan Mountain.

"It's over!"

Wang Liansan's face was desperate: "These two teams of Japanese cavalry, one team pursues and kills in the south, and the other team controls in the west, preventing the soldiers from escaping west into the mountains, and the sea is in the south; Annihilation! ”10
