(0983) [The power went out at noon, and the call came at 22:30.] &&&Latest Chapter: Chinese Every Day&&I've already taken laxatives...... After taking laxatives, I sat in front of the computer and typed, and I felt ...... It's cool! There are a lot of unlucky things in the month, and I hope the month will pass quickly. Looking forward to a new start in September! 】

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

A series of explosions rang out, shaking the entire area around Aikawa Castle and even around Sado Island. Sado Island has also had some earthquakes before. It feels like there is no comparison between the earthquakes of the past and the explosions of today. Even in the mountains twenty miles away from Aikawa Castle, you can feel the shaking of the earth. Especially in the deep mines, such shaking is particularly noticeable. The water in the depths of the pit is constantly gushing out.

In the flames, the Japanese soldiers in the explosion area were blown to pieces, and there were no bones left. Those on the verge of an explosion are no better. They staggered to their feet, and before they could figure out what was going on, they were killed by the roaring Minnie bullets.

The Japanese soldiers killed by muskets, killed by grape bullets, at least one corpse remains. As long as it is not hit by a solid bullet, the body is basically intact. However, some of the Japanese troops who were bombarded by the flying thunder artillery disappeared completely, while others almost disappeared, leaving only a little residue. Even the officers of the Japanese army could not judge how many casualties their subordinates had. Just one feeling - lots and lots of them.

The loud explosion made the people of the entire Sado Island, whether it was the foreign mining workers or the aborigines of Sado Island itself, squatting on the ground and trembling in fright. They thought it was an earthquake on Sado Island. Some of the old people began to murmur to themselves, and no one knew what they were praying for.

Some of the Japanese natives even knelt on the ground and kept asking Amaterasu to bless them. Some migrant workers knelt on the ground and bowed to the west, asking the Buddha for protection. On this small island of Sado, Amaterasu and Buddha both have a large number of devotees. What's more, both Amaterasu and Buddha pray together for the best results.

Of course, there are also a few people who are more courageous and quietly approach Aikawa Castle, wanting to see what is going on. However, they didn't dare to get too close, so they could only watch from a distance, and as a result, they were shocked to see that black mushroom-like clouds continued to rise. A large number of Japanese troops were swallowed up by such a mushroom cloud.

In the eyes of onlookers, the Japanese soldiers who swarmed up seemed to have fallen into a large pit when they encountered the explosion of the flying thunder cannon, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. After the violent explosion, there was only a charred black area around the crater. Only the huge column of smoke that rose up, as if it had been conjured by a demon, was terrifying.

The lethality of these flying thunder cannons within 50 meters is definitely not to be underestimated. The flying thunder cannon used by the Marines of the Tiger Army fired a standard explosive pack of 15 catties. This amount of explosives is enough to wipe out all the enemies within a radius of 50 meters. The Japanese offensive formation, so dense, was completely looking for death.

In fact, as long as the officers of the Japanese army were a little more careful, they would find that many of their soldiers did not have too many scars on the outside, but were shocked to death and bleed. That's the power of explosives packs. There is no need for shrapnel or the like, just a strong shock wave, which is enough to kill people.

However, most of the Japanese army did not realize this. They are still desperately rushing forward. They all have a kind of luck mentality, feeling that such a tragic fate may not fall on them. As long as they are fast enough, they will be able to avoid the explosive packs. ##Every day Chinese must go to ##如果不幸被炸中, that's no way to do it.

Indeed, the speed at which the Tigerben Army Marines threw explosive packs was not particularly fast. This kind of thing pays attention to a wide area of killing, not the speed of launch. If two explosive packs in a row fall in the same place, the lethality will not be stacked. Only by staggering the landing point can we exert the greatest lethality.

Maeda Ryota and his subordinates didn't realize what was going on in front of them. Weapons like flying thunder cannons, they had never encountered before. They were only optimistic that under the tidal wave of Japanese attacks, the Tiger Army would soon be crushed. The immediate difficulties are only temporary and can be overcome. As long as the immediate difficulties are overcome, victory will belong to the shogun.

However, with the continuous loud noises, the Japanese army's attacks never worked, and they realized that something was wrong. After careful observation, they found that the troops under their command were all killed by the strange things thrown by the Tiger Army. No matter how many Japanese soldiers come up, with a boom, the surrounding area will turn into a white field.

"What's going on?"

Ryo Maeda was so shocked.

He had never encountered such a weapon. I didn't even think about it. From inside the clairvoyant, as soon as a black object falls, a huge explosion is produced. A large number of Japanese troops were killed in such an explosion. Such a deadly weapon, he withered his intestines, but he never knew what it was.

"Evil things?"

Youqiben said suspiciously.

"Evil things?"

"Demon Knife Muramasa?"

The eyes of the other Qiben suddenly became a little frightened.

Like the Chinese, the Japanese are more superstitious. Even, some Japanese are more superstitious than Chinese. If you want to say that the Tokugawa shogunate, the most superstitious and frightening thing, I am afraid is the demon sword Muramasa. Tokugawa Iemitsu also issued a special order for this to strictly prohibit his subordinates from mentioning the name of the demon sword Muramasa.

In fact, the Demon Knife Village is not a knife, but the name of a knife, as if it were a Chinese Longquan sword, which was mass-produced. Muramasa is a place dedicated to making katanas, and the locally crafted katanas are exceptionally sharp. Many Japanese samurai who are skilled in martial arts, or who are of superior status, like to use the katana produced by Muramasa.

Because several members of the Tokugawa family were killed by the Demon Sword Muramasa, or killed or injured, the Tokugawa Shogunate was very taboo against the Demon Sword Village. Tokugawa Iemitsu also sent people to purge the village and other places, and strictly forbade the locals to continue to build katanas. Two or three hundred years later, the power of the Tokugawa shogunate declined, and those who resisted it engraved the word "Muramasa" on their swords to show that they were incompatible with the Tokugawa shogunate.

"Gah!"

"Nonsense!"

Ryota Maeda shouted angrily.

Demon Sword Village is a taboo of the Tokugawa shogunate, and these flags are actually brought up on such an occasion, which is simply looking for death. If Tokugawa Iemitsu had heard this, he would have to dismiss them. However, the weapons used by the Tiger Ben Army are indeed somewhat similar to evil creatures. In the past, Tian Liangtai understood that such a weapon was simply exclusive to demons.

"The omnipotent Amaterasu Okami......"

Arikimoto began to summon Amaterasu in order to drive away demons. ##Every day Chinese must go##

It's a pity, I don't know if Amaterasu is too busy, I'm not at home today, and I don't react at all. The Japanese army continued to attack, and the flying thunder artillery on the side of the Tiger Army continued to fire, continuing to send a large number of Japanese troops to hell.

Last time, the Huben Army Marines used flying thunder cannons on Lianyun Island, but there was no such result. At that time, there were not many Tartars, and a drop in an explosive bag did not necessarily kill a Tartar. However, on Sado Island, these explosives bags of the Huben Army Marines are all bumper harvests. Every time a bag of explosives falls, a large number of Japanese lives are harvested.

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, Maeda Ryota couldn't help but be a little frustrated. Could it be that Amaterasu is completely powerless against such an evil thing? Where did these damn Tiger Ben Army come from? Could it be that Zhang Zhun is really the reincarnation of a demon?

The worst were the soldiers who were full of hope and felt that they could take down Aikawa Castle. When they were closest to the Tiger Army, they suffered such a terrifying killing, and the frustration in their hearts can be imagined. Of course, this was only a small number of Japanese troops who had the opportunity to be depressed. Most of the Japanese troops, in the deafening explosion, went to see Amaterasu.

A very small number of Japanese troops were lucky enough to avoid the bombardment of the flying thunder artillery and continued to approach the Tiger Army. Just as they were glad that they were not killed, suddenly a huge force came from the soles of their feet, and then they all overturned them into the sky. As soon as it gets dark, you don't know anything. The powerful shock wave pushed all the surrounding Japanese troops to the ground.

This was an explosion that was even more shocking by the flying thunder cannon, and it immediately attracted the attention of all the Japanese officers. Unlike the explosion of the Flying Thunder Cannon, this explosion was more powerful and buried deeper, as if it had burst out directly from the ground. A large amount of dirt and black smoke rose together, enveloping the battlefield in a small area.

"What is this?"

Ryota Maeda was shocked again.

No one was able to answer. All the Japanese were in shock. The doubts of the flying thunder cannon have not yet been answered, and now a more powerful big guy has appeared. Some Qiben felt that their brains had begun to break out in a cold sweat. There are so many evil things in the hands of the Tiger Army, can they really take Sado Island?

What is it?

Landmines, of course.

The mine is the last link of the Tiger Army's defense line, and it is only about 30 meters away from the Tiger Army's defense line. The charge of the flying thunder cannon is generally about fifteen catties. The charge of the mine, at least fifty pounds or more. The power of the explosion, of course, is incomparable. Basically, as long as you enter a hundred meters around the mine, there is very little chance of survival.

If you say that the killing of muskets is only in rows, if you are lucky, you can still dodge the past. The killing and damage of flying thunder cannons and mines is circled by circle. As long as it is within the range of the explosion, it is basically impossible.

No matter how ferocious the enemy's tactics are, in the face of flying thunder cannons and mines, they can only be scum. The faster the Japanese charge forward, the more troops they deployed, and the greater the casualties they took.

...... "Ah! ”

By Zhang Zhun's side, Wang Junyu exclaimed in a low voice.

He came to Zhang Zhun's side relatively late, and he had never seen the power of flying thunder cannons and mines. When the Flying Thunder Cannon exploded, he could barely hold back and not let himself make a sound of surprise. But when the huge mines began to explode, he couldn't hold back any longer.

It's just brutal. In the face of such a weapon, even if a hundred thousand enemies rush up, there is no possibility of approaching! How could a human body of flesh and blood be an opponent for such an explosion? With a loud bang, dozens, or even hundreds, of human lives were gone.

Such a weapon, it is not known who invented it. If it was invented by Zhang Zhun himself, it would be really terrifying. No wonder the Tiger Ben Army is so strong, it turns out that there is such a big killing move! It seems that this time the Japanese are dead.

...... "Boss, look ......"

Youqiben asked cautiously tentatively.

The Tiger Army is too powerful, do you want to retreat temporarily? Even if you don't retreat, at the very least, you have to figure out what kind of weapon the Tiger Ben Army uses. If we continue to rush forward like this, I am afraid that all the 30,000 Japanese troops will die.

"Keep attacking!"

Ryota Maeda shouted without hesitation.

The troops have already gone up to Sado Island, where is there any possibility of retreat? If he retreats like this, where will he still have the face to see Tokugawa Iemitsu? Besides, Ryota Maeda has always believed that as long as his courage is enough, evil things will never be stopped. Obviously, the Japanese army in the storm still lacked some courage.

Offensive!

Go on the offensive!

Only by continuing to attack can we take Sado Island!

Under the order of Ryota Maeda, all the Japanese soldiers took off their shirts, tied red silk on their foreheads, and at the same time put out all the mascots on their bodies to restrain the evil creatures of the Tiger Army. Then the Japanese continued to rush forward.

...... "My lord, don't we really need to go up to help?" ”

Wang Shide asked a little worriedly.

The Japanese charge looked stupid, as if it was going to kill itself. However, you can't deny that their charge is indeed very brave. Even in the presence of the Tartars, they are no less impressive. No wonder little Japan was so arrogant in North Korea. After being repelled by the Ming army, he was still very unconvinced of his defeat.

Once they can't stop their charge, they get close to each other and start hand-to-hand combat with the Tiger Army, the Tiger Army is afraid that it will suffer a big loss. The disparity in strength is so great, if you fight hand-to-hand, others are empty-handed, five to one, or even ten to one, can tear the tiger army apart.

"No, I don't."

Zhang Zhun replied calmly.

Wang Junyu wanted to speak and stopped. In the end, he and Wang Shide glanced at each other and did not speak. Obviously, both of them felt that the battle of Aikawa Castle was a bit urgent. Zhang Zhun is around, although there are no army troops, but there is a navy! As long as the navy stepped forward and bombarded all the Japanese troops on the sea, Aikawa Castle would be safe.

Only Zhang Zhun is very confident, confident that the Marines will definitely be able to hold Xiangchuan Castle. The Japanese attack looked very fierce, but in fact it could not cause effective damage to the Tiger Army. The field artillery, tiger guns, flying thunder cannons, and mines of the Tiger Ben Army constitute a very tight defense system. In the face of such a defense system, relying on crowd tactics, it is absolutely impossible to take a step beyond the thunder pool. Where is the flesh and blood of the human body, where is the opponent of firearms?

As long as the people of the Tiger Army are still there, the ammunition is still there, and the guns and artillery are still there, the Japanese army will not want to break into Xiangchuan Castle. Everything you see in front of you is an illusion. What Zhang Zhun wants is such an illusion. Only such an illusion can make the Japanese army continue to come up and send them to death. Otherwise, the Japanese army will be beaten back with a stick, and the Japanese army will not dare to come to Sado Island again.

The only regret is that the Tiger Army does not have machine guns and other large-scale killing weapons, otherwise, if the Japanese army charges like this, a shuttle of bullets passes, at least a squad will fall. Modern heavy machine guns, the speed at which they kill, is simply too fast.

…… The Japanese attack lasted for three hours. In the end, realizing that it was really impossible to take Aikawa Castle, Maeda Ryota had to temporarily order a retreat. Of course, he was not willing to fail. After he plans to go back, he will continue to gather forces and make a comeback.

When night fell, the Japanese army completely retreated, and Zhang Zhun happened to go ashore. The port of Aikawa Castle is already a mess, and it is almost impossible to see what it used to be. In the vicinity of the trestle, it was impossible to moor a large warship, so Zhang Zhun changed to a sampan and then went ashore.

Xiangchuan Castle is still in the hands of the Tiger Army. Around Aikawa Castle, there were only the corpses of Japanese soldiers everywhere. The soldiers of the Tiger Army who cleaned up the battlefield cannot be counted for the time being, how many Japanese casualties there were. All they could count was the corpses of Japanese soldiers on land. As for those that were completely shattered, those whose bones were gone, or those who sank in the sea, it is impossible to count.

According to incomplete statistics, the number of corpses left by the Japanese army is probably more than 11,000. A rough estimate of the number of Japanese casualties is at least fifteen thousand or more. Perhaps, it is possible to reach 20,000 people.

Such a painful, such crisp loss, is simply unprecedented. Through this battle, the Tiger Ben army has a relatively deep understanding of the character of the Japanese.

"Lord Governor!"

"Lord Governor!"

"Lord Governor!"

Fang He, Liu Dong, Li Yang and others were all behind the trestle to welcome Zhang Zhun's arrival.

"Li Yang, good job!"

Zhang Zhun patted Li Yang's shoulder vigorously.

Li Yang's artillery battalion played quite well, so that the Japanese army lost a small half of its strength before it went ashore. Those little Japan's biggest fears are the rain of steel bullets. In the face of powerful force, they are scum!

A staff officer called and whispered a few words beside Fang He. Fang He whispered to Zhang Zhun: "My lord, I caught some Japanese prisoners......"

Zhang Zhun shook his head gently.

Fang He understood, took a few steps back, and made a killing gesture to the staff officer.

The staff officer understood, and retreated. Soon after, a short scream rang out, which quickly vanished. The Tiger Ben army up and down, as if they didn't hear it at all.

[I'm going to run to the hospital these days, I'm really sorry for everyone...... Hopefully, the unlucky days are in the month. Don't be unlucky again in September. 】
