Chapter 1126: Bloody Kyoto (3)

The guns have been roaring non-stop, there is like the chant of death, human life is passing like a mustard, no matter how the wild Japanese people impact, it is difficult to cross the sixty-meter line one step, there is no side, in the Qing military system, the Marine Corps is a very special unit, although there are few heavy weapons, but there are many machine guns, whenever there is the latest type of firearms research successfully, it is always the first equipment of the Marine Corps, plus the training is extremely rigorous, almost every soldier is a sharpshooter, the gun is deadly, but a moment of effort, The Japanese who had been shot were already lying on the ground, bleeding and drifting in a pestle, and it was like hell on earth.

The Japanese people do have a brutal ruthlessness in their bones, although they were shot countless by the Qing army, the successors still rushed forward regardless of it, such a crazy state, it is really heartbreaking, fortunately, the Qing soldiers are well-trained, except for a little nervousness at the beginning, to the back, they have all been red-eyed, not only were not frightened by the ferocity of the Japanese people, but were completely enraged, shooting, shooting, shooting, bombing, bombing, killing the corpses of the Japanese people all over the field, finally, in the face of huge casualties, The nerves of the Japanese people could no longer be tensed, and they fled in confusion, but the red-eyed Qing officers and soldiers still refused to give up, and the guns roared to send a hymn to death to the defeated Japanese people.

"Stop shooting!"

It is certainly a very cool thing to slaughter the defeated Japanese people, but with the escape of the Japanese people, the hit rate has inevitably dropped significantly, in this regard, Li Shun is obviously a little dissatisfied, no side, although he has made sufficient preparations in advance, but the ammunition is limited after all, he does not want to consume the limited ammunition on such a person who is obviously cannon fodder, as soon as the defeated Japanese escape from the 300-meter line, Li Shun immediately raised his hand and gave the order in a loud voice.

"Vomit, vomit......"

The gunfire has stopped, but it is not dead silence, no, the nausea vomit on the wall has resounded one after another, there is no other, the scene in front of me is too shocking to be a little more than half a pillar of incense before and after, the Kyoto Imperial Palace has become a bloody hell around it, thousands of corpses lie all over the ground, blood flows like a river, the wounded and not dead wail and roll between pools of blood and stump meat, even though a group of Qing soldiers have personally slaughtered cattle, sheep and other poultry during training, I even went to the execution ground to line up to watch the autumn duel, and I have seen blood to some extent, but that little blood, compared with the current situation, is inevitably too far behind, even if the nerves are thick, in the face of such a shocking scene, it is inevitable to be disgusted.

"Open your eyes to Lao Tzu and take a good look, the ones lying on the ground over there are all miscellaneous, and I am the enemy of the Qing Dynasty, a hundred deaths are not enough to forgive their sins, it is best to die clean, I can see clearly, and if I want to vomit, I will vomit to Lao Tzu completely!"

Li Shun is a high-ranking general who has been fighting from the grassroots level, how could he not know how the recruits would react when they encounter such a bloody war scene, but he understands and understands, but he categorically cannot sit idly by and watch this situation continue, otherwise, the morale of the army will be over.

No one is born with a heart of stone, and no one is born ruthless, even if it is an iron-blooded soldier, it must be rolled out of the sea of corpses and blood in order to be a truly qualified soldier, in this regard, all the officers and soldiers have a good idea in their hearts, because of this, with Li Shun's order, although the officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps are disgusted, but no one dares to lower their heads again, looking at the bloody battlefield with their eyes first shocked, then confused, but soon replaced by perseverance, people are still those people, But the spirit is completely different.

"Report, Tokugawa-sama, urgent mail in the domain!"

The morale of the Qing army was extremely high, while the Japanese side was very depressed, burying each other in each other, and when the quarrel was in full swing, I saw a samurai with several small flags on his back hurriedly break into the crowd, knelt down towards Tokugawa Minglan is and said a word in a loud voice.

"Oh? Hiss ......"

As soon as he heard that it was an urgent report from the domain, Tokugawa Minglan didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly reached out and took a small bamboo pipe held high in the hand of the samurai, took out a roll of paper from the inside, spread it out and looked at it, and immediately gasped.

"Tokugawa-kun, you're ......"

"Tokugawa-kun, isn't it because the Western-sama didn't come?"

"Tokugawa-sama ......"

……

Seeing Tokugawa Minglan's strange expression, the daimyo couldn't take care of themselves anymore and complained to each other anymore, so they hurriedly surrounded the past and asked nonsense.

"It's nothing, the fleet of the Western Lords may have to arrive later, and now this battle can only be up to us, so we must take the Imperial Palace within a day!"

There are many people around these days, and Tokugawa Minglan really doesn't dare to tell the truth, otherwise, the morale that has suffered a heavy setback is bound to collapse completely, so he clenched his fists, crumpled the paper in his hand, stuffed it into his arms, and explained a sentence calmly and calmly.

"Phew, these Westerners are really not things, they said they were coming, but they lost their credit, no matter what, since they want to fight, then they all take out their family backgrounds, and the musket team will go into battle and enter the palace in one fell swoop!"

Sei Kazutori took the lead in attacking before, but he himself did not charge ahead, but drove the farmers who were wrapped up to take the lead, although the casualties were large, but in fact, the main forces of each domain did not have the slightest loss, and the dead were all farmers near Kyoto, Sei Kazutori would not care about the life and death of those people, and his confidence was still there, and his desire to fight was not reduced at all, no, as soon as Tokugawa Minglan's voice fell, he was already the first to curse and let out wild words.

"Well, it's decided, the musket teams of all domains will go up together and besiege on all sides, in order to break the enemy in one battle!"

The musket team is the elite of each domain, which is used to press the bottom of the box, and the daimyo of each domain is unwilling to take it out like this, and for a while no one will come forward to echo Sei Kazutori's proposal, but Tokugawa Minglan is fully supportive, this is nothing else, although he has not yet received news from Kagoshima, but Tokugawa Minglan knows that the fleets of the five Western countries are afraid that there is really an accident, otherwise, there will not be such a large-scale Qing fleet to come, in the current situation, if you can't break through the Kyoto Imperial Palace as soon as possible, rescue the Wawang in one fell swoop, When the main force of the Qing army landed, all the people gathered here would not end well, and only by retreating in the direction of Edo with the Wa King could they launch a nationwide war in the name of the Wa King and fight to the death with the Qing army.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Tokugawa Minglan gave the order for a decisive battle, although the daimyo of each domain had their own thoughts, but it was not easy to forcibly oppose, so they could only pass on their own orders, and all the main forces in the domain were mobilized, with the sound of several horns, the musket teams of each domain began to assemble into a formation, and more than 40 old-fashioned artillery pieces were pushed out, divided into three places, lined up in front of the formation, and put on a posture of preparing for a decisive battle with the Qing army.

"Order: The artillery battalions are in place, and Lao Tzu will destroy the enemy artillery positions!"

Seeing that the main force of the Japanese State had been dispatched, Li Shun, who was standing on the tower of the tall city gate, did not dare to slack off, but when he saw that he raised his hand, he had already given a loud order.

"One consecutive order: three holes in the secret position, four holes, three holes and five .......

"Second Consecutive Hearing Order: Four Holes in the Secret Position, Four Holes in the Four Holes, and Seven ......"

"Triple Order: Secret ......"

Although the artillery positions of the Qing army were concentrated in the middle of the imperial palace, there were observation posts on all four walls, and with Li Shun's order, their own observation posts hurriedly used the flag language to transmit the secret position to the artillery position, and the company commanders of each artillery company did not dare to ignore it lightly when they saw this, and after a series of orders were issued, the artillery began to adjust nervously before firing.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The light infantry gun used by the Qing Marine Corps is the latest model of special infantry gun, the weight of the gun body is much lighter than the old model, but the power has been more than doubled, all the shells are integrated shells, the conical warhead is no longer filled with black gunpowder, but yellow explosives, and the fragmentation fragment replaces the projectile loaded with the earlier shell, the range is as far as 1,500 meters, although it is deployed in the center of the palace, but within 500 meters around the palace, it is all in the coverage of the artillery, With the order of the artillery battalion commander, the 27 artillery pieces that were already ready began to shoot frantically, and in an instant, the artillery positions that had just been arranged by the Japanese side were smashed to the ground.

"Fire, fire!"

Under the attack at first glance, the commanders of the three Japanese artillery positions were suddenly anxious, and they didn't care that their own artillery had not yet completed the adjustment before shooting, and they roared and gave the order, but it was a pity that at this time, the Japanese artillery had been beaten by the Qing army's artillery fire, and under the chaos of casualties, only a few people could really launch artillery bombardment according to the order, and a few shells smashed indiscriminately against the wall of the palace, and the effect achieved was almost nothing, not only that, The artillery positions were soon silenced by the fierce and unusual fire of the Qing army, and as soon as the battle began, more than 30 old artillery pieces on the Japanese side were completely wiped out.

"Yaga, musket team, attack, kill!"

Seeing that his artillery position was destroyed by the Qing army in an instant, Sei Kazutori, who was in charge of directing the musket team to fight, suddenly turned red-eyed, brandished a katana, and gave the order to attack with a roar.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

With the order of Sei Kazutori, the musket team lined up in a phalanx began to press forward, and the three infantry teams began to advance towards the wall of the palace from three sides, the drums rumbled, and the pace was neat......
