Chapter 173: The Japanese Army Returns in Vain

Chen Liuliang had been staring at a Japanese soldier at the edge of the bush a hundred meters away for a long time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, these Japanese soldiers were cunning and shooting on the ground, which was not only uneven, but also overgrown with low bushes and weeds.

The Japanese soldier always raised his head and fired a shot quickly, and immediately lowered his head, and Chen Liu did not escape into the crosshairs several times.

"Sixth, why don't you shoot?"

Chen Erniu next to him roared at Chen Liuliang while shooting, and his right sleeve was full of half-dried coagulated blood, which was the blood of Chen Erniu's distant third grandfather.

And the third grandfather, who usually joked with him as an elder, was hit by a bullet in the chest, and had turned into a cold corpse, blood flowing vertically and horizontally on the soil, soaking Chen Erniu's shoes.

Chen Liuliang didn't say a word, closed one eye and stared at the crosshairs, and in the fierce gunfire, he seemed to hear a loud roar from the position on the Japanese side, and then those Japanese soldiers raised their heads and raised their guns to shoot.

"Bang!"

At the same time as the Japanese soldier raised his white face and raised his gun to shoot, Chen Liu's two fingers of his right hand pulled the trigger fiercely.

The rifle in his hand shook suddenly, and the golden bullet casings flew away from the rifle, and in Chen Liuliang's urgent sight, a bloody hole exploded in the forehead of the Japanese soldier who had just raised his head, and then he fell down softly.

"I killed him!"

Chen Liuliang jumped up excitedly, and suddenly saw in his sight that a few thatches in front of him were shattered, and then there was a monstrous pain in his chest, and he fell to the ground upside down.

Large strands of blood poured out of Chen Liuliang's chest.

"Sixth!"

Chen Erniu threw himself to Chen Liuliang's side in horror, trembling his hands and trying to hold down Chen Liuliang's wound, but how could he stop the flow of blood?

A large amount of blood immediately gushed out from between Chen Erniu's fingers, staining Chen Erniu's hands.

"Dick, I, ahem-"

Chen Liuliang's mouth was full of blood foam: "I killed one, one, one." ”

"I know, I know."

Chen Erniu's voice was full of crying, and he only knew that Yongshou was desperately pressing Chen Liuliang's chest.

In this dense burst of gunfire, five or six people were shot and killed at the Huangminghe sentry, and six or seven people were wounded by the guns, and morale plummeted.

Many soldiers did not dare to stick their heads out of the bunker to aim and shoot, but raised their guns out of the bunker with both hands and pointed at the empty guns as if a blind cat had touched a dead mouse.

The form of the Qing army's position in Zhisongyuan was suddenly very dangerous.

"Charge!"

Sensing the change of the Qing army in front, Takeda Shuzo was overjoyed, stood directly and bravely, drew his war knife, pointed at the thatched houses in Plantari Temple, and shouted orders.

"Long live the Emperor!"

All the Japanese soldiers stood up and rushed towards Plantashoin with their guns in hand.

Finished!

Seeing this scene outside, Huang Minghe's head 'buzzed', pointing at the fifty or so soldiers on his side who had no intention of fighting, which could not be stopped.

"Minghe, withdraw."

The sentry commander Ma Shunde anxiously shouted: "If you don't leave, the brothers won't be able to leave!" ”

"Remove your paralysis!"

Chen Erniu, whose hands were covered with blood, had red eyes, and his big hands full of blood stood upright with his rifle in his hand, shooting at the Japanese soldiers who pounced.

"Bang!"

A Japanese soldier fell in response,

"Bang bang bang-"

As soon as the Japanese soldiers saw it, they yelled and ran while shooting back.

"Minghe!"

Ma Shunde shouted anxiously again.

All the Yi soldiers looked at Huang Minghe, only Chen Erniu was crazy, and shot out one shot at a time.

"Withdraw—"

Looking at the Japanese soldiers who were getting closer and closer to those who were shouting wildly, Huang Minghe couldn't help but feel a trace of cowardice in his heart.

"Bang bang bang-"

However, as soon as Huang Minghe said the word 'withdraw' hoarsely, there was a dense burst of gunfire behind him.

The Japanese soldiers who were charging were shot and fell to the ground.

"Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming!"

The soldiers in the thatched huts were overjoyed, cheering and picking up their rifles and shooting at the stunned Japanese soldiers.

No one ever said it was a shame to retreat.

"Brothers Yijun, kill these dog trough things!"

Outside the thatched hut fortress, a large group of Sheng soldiers rushed over with red Yanyan, and a Sheng military camp officer who led the team roared loudly in his mouth, while sticking to the thatched hut and shooting at the Japanese soldiers who were stupidly standing in the middle of the charge.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Takeda Shuizo, who was angry and cracked, had to order the troops to withdraw to the bushes, and the Japanese soldiers shouted and turned around and ran, and several wounded Japanese soldiers fell in the end and became the target of all Qing troops, and they were all beaten alive.

When the Japanese fled back into the forest, the gunfire gradually thinned out, leaving more than 20 corpses of Japanese soldiers in the open space.

At the same time, near the Shuiwan Bridge, the dense gunfire gradually stopped, and the Yi Yi Army and the Yi Sheng Army on that side, after receiving reinforcements, quickly stabilized their positions and beat the Japanese army.

Soon, the artillery fire between the two sides gradually stopped, and the entire Datong River returned to tranquility, with only occasional cold guns, one sound and one sporadic sound.

On the hilly Japanese position, Yoshimasa Oshima looked at the two co-captains with gloomy faces under him, and his angry heart slowly calmed down.

At this time, calmness is what a commander should do, not lose his mind in a rage, and commit an irreparable sin like the stupid pig of a household guard.

"Let the soldiers all withdraw; Ladies and gentlemen, this is our opponent, and their combat power is not much worse than that of the Imperial soldiers! The reason why the empire was able to easily win in Cheng Huan was because we were lucky enough to meet the pig-like commander of the Qing Kingdom. ”

Oshima Yoshimasa shouted at the top of his voice: "But you can't expect all the Qing generals to be stupid pigs!" ”

"Hey!"

Shuzo Takeda and Sukeyoshi Nishijima both roared in humiliation.

"Report to the head of the group, we swam to Giethoorn Island in the middle of the river, and then swam to the west bank to capture five ferries."

First Class Officer Cao Wakida of the 3rd Brigade of the 21st Wing of the Japanese Army ran over to report.

"Yo Xi, you are all warriors of the Empire!"

Yoshimasa Oshima was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Regiment commander, when I came back, I found Shuiwan Bridge, and the Qing army in the earthware shop was retreating to the heavy fort of Chuanqiao by the river."

Wakida had some uncertain reports.

"Retreat?"

Yoshimasa Oshima looked surprised.

"General, it seems that the Qing army in Plantoin is also retreating?"

The chief of staff of the Ninth Brigade, Shi Shaozuo outside Gangwai, looked at the Qing army position in Zhisongyuan two miles away in surprise, and exclaimed in surprise.

Northeast of Pyongyang City, at the southern foot of Daesung Mountain, merged with the north bank of the river, the country's main inkstone heights.

After a rapid march in the morning, at noon, more than 2,400 people of the Shuoning detachment of the Japanese army finally arrived at the Guozhu Yan Heights on the north bank of the merged river.

It is less than 5,000 meters away from the Jingyan Mountain Heights, the outermost part of the Qing army, and is far away across the Merge River.

At this time, the sky is clear, the big white clouds are leisurely nomadic above the blue sky, and the mountains on the plateau of the country's inkstone are full of clusters of wild chrysanthemums.

Immediately saw that Naowen and the captain of the 1st Brigade of the 12th Wing of the Japanese Army, Tomita Harubi Shaosa, and the captain of the 2nd Brigade of the 21st Wing, Keizo Yamaguchi, stood on the top of the hill and looked at the Qing army fortress on the heights of Jingyan Mountain.

"Boom-"

A burst of thunderous cannon sound sounded in the direction of the Taedong River in Pyongyang City, and they were all happy to see Shang Wen.

"It should be General Oshima's Ninth Brigade."

Keizo Yamaguchi looked to the south and said excitedly, "General, when are we going to attack?" ”

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

The corners of Shangwen's mouth showed a hint of disdain: "Oshima's personality is a bit like Yama County, arrogant and self-aware; There's nothing wrong with arrogantly despising your opponent, but you have to have this ability! Let him touch the nails on the other side of the bridge. ”

Lijian Shangwen turned his head and said: "What we need to do now is to rest to our heart's content, wait until the early morning of the 15th, and with ten thousand forces, capture Xuanwu Gate in one fell swoop, occupy Pyongyang City, and wipe out all the Qing troops!" ”

"Hey!"

On the slopes of the country's main inkstone heights, all the Japanese soldiers shouted in unison.
