Chapter 614: Collapse

Immediately saw Shang Wen sitting on a Huanghuali Taishi chair, waiting for the soldiers to boil water and drink tea.

The water is the clear spring water of the Tang River obtained by pecking the ice, and the tea is the old Pu'er brick tea at the bottom of the box pressed by a landlord and old rich family in the nearby Zhuangzi.

This Huanghuali wooden Taishi chair, Huanghuali table, Jingdezhen blue and white tea set, including the red clay stove for making tea, were all 'borrowed' from this 'generous' landlord and old rich family.

The artillery battle of the mountains and seas in the north is in full swing, and on the small city of Yongping in the north one mile, it is densely packed with vulnerable Qing troops.

Waiting for tea, he was very satisfied.

After a hurried march all the way, I finally caught up.

At this time, the approximate battle report data in the battle of Shimenzhai was only counted by the brigade staff adjutant Lin Taro Shaozuo.

In this battle, about 400 enemies were destroyed, 61 Mauser repeating rifles, 11 single-shot rifles, 187 imitation repeating rifles, 118 single-shot rifles, and 356 intact war horses were captured; Our soldiers were killed 19 and seriously wounded, and Lieutenant Akeno Koizumi broke his lower leg during the pursuit. ”

"Well, the soldiers on horseback were in small groups of 10 men, with a squad of infantry, commanded by Okami Masami, and lined up in the upper reaches of the Tang River, so as not to let a single Qing army escape; - Daqing is really rich! ”

Seeing Shang Wen smell the fragrance of tea in the gradually opening tea, he said sincerely: "The landlord in an unknown small village, who eats, drinks, lives and wears, is actually better than the ministers and generals of the empire!" ”

"Commander, everything here will belong to the empire in the future, these stupid pigs don't deserve to enjoy these good things, they should all be dedicated to the empire!"

The commander of the 12th Wing, Yuan Yanye Nakasa, stood beside Tatsumi Shangwen with a proud face.

"Long live the Empire!"

Hearing You'an Yanye say this, a group of Japanese generals standing next to him shouted at the top of their voices.

"The Qing army is out of the city?"

The staff officer of the First Army, Fukushima Yasumasa, looked at the suddenly open south gate in surprise, and a large group of chaotic Qing troops poured out of it.

Then I saw a large number of Qing troops pouring out from the east gate and the west gate, running towards the Tang River.

"Gentlemen, set up a gun and carry it steadily!"

"It's a New Year's Eve!"

"Kill the Japanese and celebrate the New Year!"

The three Qing troops were like three long red dragons, striding in the fields covered with snow, looking at the thin defense line of the Japanese army five or six hundred meters ahead, everyone was full of energy.

"A rabble, I don't know whether to live or die!"

Seeing that Shangwen let out a disdainful cold snort in his mouth, he picked up the hot tea, and gently sniffed the tea fragrance of the brick tea, and his hands, feet, and face, which were frozen cold, were suddenly full of warmth.

"In this battle, your 1st Brigade is in charge; Transfer 2 squadrons to 7, 8, 9 squadrons, under your command. ”

Yuan Yanye, who received the signal from the head of the statue of Shangwen, loudly ordered Tomita Harubi Shaozuo.

"Hey!"

Tomita Harubi looked excited, and shouted and ordered: "The 1st squadron will attack the Qing army in the middle head-on, and the 2nd and 3rd squadrons will attack its left and right flanks; The 4th Squadron attacked the Qing Army on the left head-on, and the 5th and 6th Squadrons attacked its flanks; The 7th Squadron attacked the Qing Army on the right flank, and the 8th and 9th Squadrons attacked its flanks. Attack now! ”

With the roar of Tomita Harobi and the rapid delivery of the heralds' fast horses, the Japanese troops in the lower reaches of the Tang River were disturbed, and soon nine sharp arrows were formed, heading straight for the Qing army in the north.

"Gentlemen, kill the widows!"

Seeing that the Japanese army had never come, the Qing army shouted in unison.

"Attack, Yaga, don't slow down, run and attack!"

At the same time, the Japanese officers also yelled.

"Bang, bang, bangβ€”"

Suddenly, on the empty snowy field south of Yongping Mansion north of the Tang River, three red long dragons and nine black long arrows began to shoot fiercely.

In the midst of the smoke of gunfire, a large number of soldiers on both sides of the Qing and Japanese sides were shot and fell to the ground.

The screams of bullets, bright blood, milky brains, and terrible rolling screams were staged on the white snow.

"Shoot, shoot! Don't stop! Keep running and shooting! ”

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Break through them!"

The Japanese officers shouted orders at the top of their voices, and the Japanese soldiers who had been severely trained endured the fear in their hearts, ran and shot desperately, and rushed towards the long line of Qing troops.

"Bang, bang, bangβ€”"

"Ahh

Grains of hot projectiles continued to hit the long line of the Qing army, and a large number of Qing soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.

The Fushou army on the east road soon couldn't stand it, first cowered and didn't dare to continue to march south, and soon a large number of terrifying Qing troops were piled up at the leading part, and then began to collapse.

"Run!"

Suddenly, the red dragon became scattered and scattered, and thousands of Qing troops turned their heads and fled towards Yongping Mansion.

"The left side is broken, the left side is broken!"

"Mobi, these grandsons! Runβ€”"

Immediately, the formations of the two Qing armies on the middle and west roads also began to disperse.

"Yongping Mansion is over! Shanhaiguan in the north is also fighting, entering the mountain, entering the mountain is the way for our grandfathers to live! ”

The Qing army of Wu Fengzhu's three battalions on the West Road were all mountain people, mountain bandits, and hunters who were recruited by Wu Fengzhu when he suppressed bandits in Jinzhou two or three months ago.

When the three battalions of the new army saw that the situation was not right, they shouted one after another, and fled in groups towards the mountains more than ten miles to the northwest.

"Want to run? Dream! Catch up! ”

Seeing the Qing army fleeing, You'an Yanye snorted coldly and ordered: "All pursuit!" ”

"The cavalry is in front of the half-arc attack formation, and the infantry is in the rear, intercepting and attacking the fleeing Qing army!"

The 3rd Brigade of the 12th Wing was on standby in the upper reaches of the Tang River, and when Okami Masami saw Wu Fengzhu's 3rd Battalion of infantry fleeing in the northwest direction in the snowy field, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he ordered: "Kill them all!" ”

"Attack!"

Following the orders of the Japanese officers, these Japanese infantry, who had barely ridden their horses, drove their horses in a chaotic manner and intercepted them in the southeast direction.

Yongping Mansion, the southern city wall.

"The angry old man, the angry old man! Thief, I and you are incompatible! ”

Seeing the majestic and majestic three-way army out of the city, it only took a moment to take a look at the Japanese Yi, and then they lost their armor and fled, and all the generals on the city wall lost their color.

Wu Dacheng was even more angry.

"Hurry up, the Japanese soldiers are coming!"

"Don't squeeze, Ma-bi, squeeze ,β€”β€” me!"

Two or three thousand routs soon crowded at the south gate of the city, desperately squeezing into the narrow gate.

"Shoot, shoot!"

The Japanese soldiers who followed from behind stood with their guns raised and shot at the Qing troops crowded at the south gate.

"Bang, bang, bangβ€”"

"Ahh

Suddenly, blood flowed outside the South City Gate.

"Close the gates, close the gates! Entering the city from the east, west, and north gates, the soldiers who entered the city immediately went up to the south city wall to block the Japanese army! ”

Chen Fenglou was lying on the city wall and yelled loudly, but the sound of gunfire and crying shook the sky, and which soldier ignored his call?

"Zhongcheng, hurry up and retreat from the north gate to Shanhaiguan, if you don't leave, it'll be too late!"

In the shootout just now, Jiang Yongteng, the general of the Fushou Army, who took the lead in escaping on horseback, ran up to the city wall with a frightened face.

"Rats, you cowardly rats!"

Wu Dacheng was so angry that his old face was bloody, and he pointed at Jiang Yongteng and scolded angrily: "Your three-way army of more than 4,000 people was actually defeated by a small Japanese army of less than 2,000 people? Not the Son of Man, not the Son of Man! ”

"Zhongcheng, withdraw! If we don't leave, we will all be wronged ghosts under the gun, and we will go to Shanhaiguan to lead the elite soldiers back for revenge! ”

On the southern wall, the generals persuaded together.

"Alas!"

Wu Dacheng let out a long sigh, and in the direction of the Forbidden City in the southwest, he yelled with tears on his face: "Your Majesty, it's not that you don't do your best for your ministers, but these new troops are a group of people who can't support the wall with mud!" ”

After sighing, Wu Dacheng shouted: "Brothers, go to Shanhaiguan to bring the elite soldiers back for revenge!" ”

"Yes, yes, go to Shanhaiguan and lead the elite soldiers back to take revenge!"

On the south wall, there was a shout.
