Dalian Bay, the east shore of Xiaotuozi Bay. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Boom, boom—"

Maruyama led a cavalry reconnaissance team and made a long detour, and when he finally came to the beach of Dalian Bay, he suddenly heard the sound of heavy artillery between heaven and earth.

"It's the warships of the Empire, they fired back, and they killed these pigs!"

Maruyama must have seen that due south, about three miles away, there were four warships moored with the flag of the Imperial Navy, and the muzzles of the guns on them were fiery, and the huge smoke almost completely obscured the huge hulls.

"Woohoo—"

In the bewildered eyes of Maruyama's cavalry, they watched a group of high-speed projectiles pull a thin black thread across their retina, grazing over their heads and rushing eastward.

"What is this ——, for?"

Maruyama felt like his brain had completely shut down and turned into a mess.

"Cao Chang, this, this cannonball seems to be heading towards Kim-"

Following the words, Jun Cao Hengshan Chenhei turned pale and didn't dare to continue.

"Boom-"

Behind this group of cavalry, a huge crackling roar suddenly came from the direction of Jinzhou, which shook the snowy ground under the horses' hooves, and the sea water outside the nearshore ice shook out ripples.

"Boom!"

When a 120mm high-explosive bomb bombarded Jinzhou City, because of the shaking of the ship's hull, the muzzle of the gun was lowered, and it failed to sweep over Dadong Mountain, hitting a hill-like boulder high on the mountain slope, raising a large burst of flames.

The boulder suddenly exploded into countless huge stones, large and small, and flew high into the air, and then smashed down on the hillside.

"Boom—"

Those rocks, large and small, smashed the slopes of the mountains with snow, cracked the mountain trees, and then rolled down the slopes with an unstoppable momentum.

"Wow, wow—"

The rocks rushed to the bottom of the mountain, but they still couldn't stop their momentum, and they crashed into the sea, smashing the snow-covered ice on the seashore and splashing ice chips everywhere.

The power of one shot, the ferocity is so fierce!

Several Japanese cavalrymen on the shore of Xiaotuozi Bay had a miserable face, and Maruyama Ding's legs were tightly clamped between the horse's belly, and he felt that if he relaxed a little, he would immediately fall from his horse.

"Don't fire, don't fire!"

Maruyama's mouth was full of crying, and he shook his rifle with the dogskin banner in his hand desperately, and drove his horse along the coast and screamed.

"Don't fire, don't fire!"

The remaining Japanese cavalry were also frightened at this time, and followed behind Maruyama Ding, shouting.

While shooting at the sky again and again, he reminded.

However, this faint sound of gunfire, compared to the monstrous roar of the cannon, is simply negligible.

Old Dragon Island.

Seeing the Japanese fleet bombarding Jinzhou City, a smile appeared on the corner of Shen Zhaoao's mouth.

The following is to see the sound of artillery in the direction of Xujiashan before, whether the troops of the Japanese Second Army have been introduced into Jinzhou City.

Of course, since the sound of the Yoshino cannon, the outcome of the matter has been finalized, and it is not something that Shen Zhaoao can control.

"Order all engineering units to start carrying out scorched earth tasks, and all artillery in Xujiashan must be completely blown up."

Shen Zhaoao took out his pocket watch and glanced at it, and continued to order: "Tell Li Bohu to withdraw from Jijiatun immediately." ”

Yoshino ship.

Tsuboi Kozo watched with satisfaction as the cannonballs whistling over Dadong Mountain and shooting towards Jinzhou City on the other side of the mountain, his heart was full of pride.

With such heavy snow and such a cold day, I think it must be crowded with Qing troops in Jinzhou City now, right?

And their generals in the Golden State Defense Line must also be roasting the fire in the house, and even sleeping soundly.

Thinking of the desperate screaming Qing army in the artillery fire of the molten city, Tsuboi Kozo's heart was really extremely happy.

"The Army is destined to become a kind of outdated and outdated past; In front of the strong ships and guns of the navy that crisscross the ocean, all the so-called heroic cities are just some ridiculous powder! ”

Looking at the white Dadong Mountain, Tsuboi Kozo's voice was full of extreme pride and conceit.

"Commander, Commander, Army! The army of the empire has appeared! ”

At this time, Captain Kamaya Tadamichi, the staff officer of Tsuboi Kozo, looked at the coastline of Xiaotuozi Bay in shock, and several cavalrymen holding plaster flags and letting their horses gallop along the coast, and shouted: "How could they appear here? ”

Hearing Kamaya Tadamichi's shout, Tsuboi Kozo's heart 'groaned', and he hurriedly held the binoculars and looked in the direction that Kamiya Tadamichi was pointing.

In the camera, I saw a small group of imperial cavalry, galloping on the coastline, dancing and shouting desperately towards the warship.

His face was full of shock and anxiety.

At this moment, Tsuboi had an epiphany of many things.

His whole body began to tremble, so much so that the telescope shook away from the group of Imperial cavalry.

"It's a conspiracy!"

Tsuboi Kozo, who put down the binoculars, his face became extremely ugly, first he trembled his lips and muttered in a low voice, and then he pulled his throat and yelled with his hands: "Stop shooting, stop shooting!" Nakamura Shizuka, immediately order all ships to stop shooting! ”

Soon, the ship group stopped firing one after another.

However, the bombs carried by the first guerrilla group that entered southern Liaoning this time have almost bottomed out.

Seeing that the ship had finally stopped attacking, Maruyama and the others almost collapsed and slid off their horses, sitting in the snow on the shore, panting heavily.

If only I had shown up sooner—

At this moment, the venomous snake of remorse is biting Maruyama's fragile heart.

"Commander—"

Yoshino's captain Kawara Yoichi, deputy captain Hikohachi Yamada, staff officers Shizuka Nakamura, Tadamichi Kamaya, and secretary Kyojiro Mimura -

A large group of officers gathered around, looking at Tsuboi Kozo, who was sweating profusely and had a miserable face.

"The Army, probably, no, certainly, captured the city of Golden State."

In one sentence, in just a few words, Tsuboi Hangzo said with great difficulty: "Otherwise, these cavalrymen would not have appeared here, and they are so anxious!" ”

General Oyama Iwa is also in the Second Army, and there is also Lieutenant General Genji of the mountain,—— if they are in Jinzhou City?

At this moment, Tsuboi wanted to jump into the sea with remorse.

"Shhhh

Everyone was stunned by Tsuboi's inference, gasping in their mouths, and their hearts were almost exploding.

"Drop a small boat and let their captain get on board."

Tsuboi Kozo gave the order with difficulty, and his heart was full of prayers for the blessing of the 'Rizhao God'.

"It's on fire!"

Hearing the exclamation of the signal soldiers from above, the generals on the Yoshino ship all looked up in the direction of Dalian Bay.

I saw Liushutun not far from the shore, the wooden buildings at the mouth of the spring river, and the depths of Dalian Bay, bursts of smoke and fire.

The truth is already clear.

It's really hard to accept!

"They have already given up Jinzhou City before, and now they are starting to give up Dalian Bay; The reason why I gave up today is because I am painstakingly doing this game! ”

Pingjing Hangzo looked at the smoke rising in Dalian Bay, and felt really tired in his heart, and yelled angrily in the direction of Monk Island: "Why! Why isn't there a bold contest? Why use intrigues! ”

Tsuboi staggered off the bridge, ten minutes ago, he was still so proud.

Vice Admiral of the Imperial Navy,

Baron of the Empire;

"If Your Excellency ——, Mountain in Jinzhou ——, I apologize for my sins!"

At this moment, Tsuboi Hangzo was extremely tired.
