Tuchengzi is now facing the sound of gunfire, shouts of killing, and screams everywhere.

The intercepted Japanese troops were not as lucky as they were just now, and they were able to climb the first barbed wire fence safely.

Many Japanese soldiers were hit by bullets on the way over, fell to the ground with blood mist, and were even blown into the sky by shells.

Many Japanese soldiers were cursing "what are the artillery for, why not cover." ”

This is a great injustice, his own artillery has been blown up by the Qing army, and the only few field guns are also struggling to breathe, tilting bombs towards the Qing army, but this effect is only a drop in the ocean. Grains of rice fall into the sea.

The Japanese army going up the mountain has been wiped out by the Qing army, and now the Qing army has returned to its position, panting and staring at the bottom of the mountain like a wolf.

Li Rong's arm and thigh were cut by shrapnel, and a piece of shrapnel was stuck in his arm.

In the temporary hospital at the foot of the mountain, Wu Xiaoyan had just stitched up the wound of a soldier when she saw a group of noisy voices mixed with heart-rending screams coming from above, and she knew that the wounded had come down again.

Busy greeting the staff to take over these to work, Wu Xiaorui found Li Rong who was holding his arm with his hand. Blood-red blood was pouring from between his fingers and dripping on the ground, splashing blood.

Wu Xiaorui discovered that among the wounded soldiers sent down, many of them actually had a red cloth wrapped around their right arm. She chuckled in her heart, this is the standard of the Second Brigade.

The clothes of the Qing army were all the same, and it was easy for Liu Jun to distinguish between the first brigade and the second brigade. He ordered all the officers and men of the Second Brigade to wrap a red cloth around their right arm so that they could be separated.

Seeing the many strips of red cloth, Wu Xiaorui immediately set his eyes on the mountain. The second brigade arrived at Tuchengzi, which proved that Liu Jun had also arrived. However, he was still not sure, and after seeing Li Rong bandaged, he ran over and asked, "Are the divisions on it?" ”

Li Rong bit his lip: "Yes, the division seat came over with the main force in the middle of the night last night." Now the division seat is on the mountain. Seeing Wu Xiaorui running out all of a sudden, Li Rong shouted loudly: "Hey, where are you going?" ”

Wu Xiaorui didn't hear Li Rong's words, and now in his mind, all that was left was Liu Jun's comfort. She was not worried about attacking the 11th Brigade, but here, she was very worried, from yesterday to now, he had seen more than 600 Qing troops killed and more than 700 Qing troops injured. It's also too cruel.

Before she ran to the mountain, she was hit by the dirt that was blown up, and then a Qing soldier rolled down, stopped next to him, and looked at the Qing army who had not closed his eyes, Wu Xiaorui screamed, but finally overcame his fear and closed the eyes of the Qing army with his hands.

As soon as she arrived at the mountain, she saw a group of people rushing up to the top of the mountain, which was the first time she saw the appearance of Japanese soldiers.

But except for seeing the black clothes and the same white as the hoof flowers underneath. She saw something, too.

Jumping off the tunnel, she began to look for Liu Jun in the Qing army. Many people in the Qing army knew Wu Xiaorui and knew that she was here to find the teacher's seat, and several Qing soldiers hurriedly brought her to Liu Jun's side.

Liu Jun, who was commanding the Qing army to counterattack there, saw someone pulling him, turned around and saw that it was actually Wu Xiaorui, he was stunned at first, and then scolded angrily: "What the hell are you doing here, hurry up and get down with Lao Tzu, the bullet doesn't matter if you are a woman, it won't hit you." ”

Seeing Wu Xiaorui's eyes with tears, Liu Jun also thought that his words were indeed a little too much, how could he scold a girl with a fairy-like face. Softened his tone, Liu Jun patted her on the shoulder: "Be good, obedient, this is not the place where you should come, go down." Seeing that Wu Xiaorui was still standing there like a log, Liu Jun yelled at the Qing army next to him: "Drag her down for me." ”

The two Qing soldiers came over and wanted to grab Wu Xiaorui and forcibly pull her down, but Wu Xiaorui broke free from the two Qing soldiers, hugged Liu Jun, kissed her on the lips, and then wiped away her tears with his sleeve. Follow the two Qing soldiers bent over from the trench and slowly turned to the back, before returning to the hospital.

In such a way of showing love on the battlefield, Liu Jun was petrified on the spot

Oops, it turns out that being kissed by a woman is this kind of taste, it would be nice if it was a little longer.

Boom, an explosion shattered Liu Jun's dream. Liu Jun lowered his head and began to retract his thoughts and command the battle.

The Japanese army was also strong enough, and they used corpses to pave a bloody road, and many Japanese soldiers rushed up when they stepped on the corpses of their comrades.

Liu Jun took a look, there are too many brigades of the Japanese army, you see this person, at least thousands, why can't he finish the fight.

Liu Jun didn't know that although the 12th Mixed Brigade was clearly a brigade, it was actually a perverted brigade, which had half the number of the Second Army. I don't know what the Japanese think.

Seeing that the Japanese troops who were blown up from time to time were still rushing up so calmly, Liu Jun wondered in his heart whether this imperialist bushido thing had been implanted in the heads of these Japanese now. But it's not like it, or he can catch more than 300 captives in Changcheng Town, Liu Jun keeps thinking about where to go.

"Fire, shoot back."

Boom, the conscienceless cannon spits out smoke again

In the Governor's Mansion of Zhili in Tianjin, Li Hongzhang has been in the telegraph room, constantly urging the Qing army to speed up the movement in Dalian.

"Where is Xu Bangdao, let them speed up"

What did the cavalry of Iktanga do to eat and march for five hundred miles in one day. ”

"Song Qing's three battalions speed up." "Tell the guard general at Yingkou that if you don't send troops, cut off."

Like fried beans, Li Hongzhang successively issued orders in the study to urge the armies to speed up their approach to Dalian.

Dalian, Dashanyan continued to receive reports from all over the Qing army approaching Dalian.

He was puzzled by these telegrams, could it be that the battle plan of the base camp had been discovered by the Qing army, so he wanted to drive himself into the sea at all costs, but it was not like this, if so, why was the main force of the Qing army still on the Korean border. The word sent out is 20,000 men.

If it turned out, the 20,000 Qing troops, Dashan Yan would not be in his eyes, but now, it is really hanging.

He did not have enough troops at hand, and the 1st Brigade of Nogi Nishinori was dragged back on the way back, and the 6th Division was not persuaded to be organized now. Quite simply, the 11th Brigade was disabled.

The 11th Brigade returned to Lushun this morning, and when it went out, it was full of more than 3,000 people, but now, it is not even 2,000 people, and what is even more hateful is that half of these people are wounded, two wing commanders and five squadron leaders were killed in battle, and Oji Yasumi was hit by artillery fire and seriously wounded. Now he didn't dare to tell the news to the base camp, otherwise, he would definitely be replaced by the First Army.

He didn't know what kind of terrible Qing army the 11th Brigade had encountered, and it was beaten so badly, and now he was in no mood to care about this. He cares about Dalian.

The 12th Mixed Brigade is now attacking Lushun again, and now in his hands, there is an incomplete 1st Division and 3rd Division. The problem is that these forces are not all concentrated in the city, but scattered around to encircle and suppress the Qing army. Now there is less than half a day left in the nearest Xu Bang Dow to Dalian.

Now there is only the 12th Mixed Brigade from his largest corps, and after thinking about it, Dashanyan still decided to withdraw the 12th Mixed Brigade. Lushun is still flawed if he is unsuccessful this time, if Dalian is lost, then he will have no way to retreat, and he will really fall into the encirclement of the Qing army.

Having received the order, the Japanese troops urgently mounted their horses and began to move out of the city.

Tuchengzi, the Japanese army was repulsed again, and the Qing army, which was full of exhaustion, was crawling in the trenches, sinking this opportunity to replenish physical strength.

It seems that the Japanese army will not attack for the time being, and Liu Jun has not ordered the Qing army to repair its position now, and now the Qing army needs most to recover its strength before it can fight the next battle with the Japanese army.

Zhong Lin, who was observing the movements of the Japanese army, saw that the Japanese army was gathering troops and hurriedly informed Liu Jun.

Liu Jun got up and saw that he was indeed gathering troops, but the strange thing was that the Japanese army was the assembly of the entire brigade.

No, the Japanese army was not going to attack, but to flee and retreat.

It seems that Li Hongzhang has done a good thing this time and adopted his own opinion, thinking of this, Liu Jun said to Zhong Lin: "It's okay, the Japanese army is just retreating." ”

"Retreat." Zhong Lin's eyes widened and he looked at the Japanese soldiers under the mountain: "Head, do you want to attack." ”

Liu Jun looked at the Qing army lying on the ground and the corpses and wounded soldiers who had not had time to send them down all over the ground, and shook his head: "Forget it, poor Kou Mo chase, let them go." ”

But thinking about watching the Japanese retreat like this, Liu Jun was unwilling, and after thinking for a while, he asked the artillery commander to ask him: "How many shells are there in the field artillery?" ”

The news he got made Liu Jun almost break out in a cold sweat, less than a hundred rounds.

If the Japanese army was attacking twice, he really couldn't hold this place with this tired Qing army.

After looking down and thinking for a while, he ordered the Qing army to see off the Japanese army. Throw some guns and say goodbye. Not more, fifty rounds is enough.

The artillery began to roar again, but this time it was not effective, and only more than a hundred Japanese soldiers were killed.

At the foot of the mountain, Hasegawa looked at Tsuchijoko and the corpses everywhere, and closed his eyes in pain, he knew that this time he was a failure.

After two days of attack, more than 1,000 casualties, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing to say that it did not even rush forward after taking over the position of the Qing army, but the order of the military headquarters was to immediately stop the attack, withdraw to Dalian, and consolidate the city defense of Dalian. He had to execute. After all, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders.

"Report to the brigade commander, the troops are assembled." The chief of staff came and said to Hasegawa, who was looking at Tsuchijoko.

Hasegawa took a good look at the Japanese army that had been assembled and the Tuchengzi who was still billowing with gunsmoke. It took a long time to sigh. He turned over the horse, turned the horse's head, and ordered to retreat in the direction of Dalian.
