"Order: The artillery battalion is firing with all its might, and give Lao Tzu a damn blow!"

Seeing the Japanese musket team dispatched, Li Shun was not only not surprised, but relaxed not old and young, no side, like the Japanese musket team such a line of tactical actions seem to be mighty, but in fact they are just some good targets, these tactics have long been eliminated by the Qing army that has mastered more advanced weapons, the reason is very simple, although there are only 27 guns of the Qing Marine Corps, but all of them are rapid-fire guns, on average, one shot a minute, and the power of the shells is amazing, fighting such a line of troops, It couldn't be easier.

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

With Li Shun's order, the artillery observation posts on the walls of their own places quickly passed the secret position back to the artillery position, after a period of nervous adjustment, the artillery of the Qing army began to shoot frantically again, the explosions roared one after another, and countless shrapnel swept in the line of the Japanese muskets.

"Artillery come forward, give me a bang!"

Seeing his infantry team being bombed by the Qing army so wildly, Sei Kazutori was so distressed that his eyes turned red, but at this time he refused to give the order to collect the troops, but took advantage of the gap when the Qing army's artillery was bombarding his own infantry team, and ordered the gunners who had been hoarded behind the formation earlier to push the cannons forward, in order to blast open the gate of the Kyoto Imperial Palace.

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

Taking advantage of the fact that the Qing army's artillery did not have time to adjust for a while, they desperately pushed the artillery to bypass their own infantry formation, rushed to a distance of less than 150 meters from Jianli Gate, and braved the rain of bullets and bullets of the defenders at the head of the wall, and began to bombard regardless of it.

"Damn, artillery battalion. Knock out the enemy artillery positions for me! ”

The gate of the Kyoto Imperial Palace is just two wooden doors wrapped with copper nails, which are sturdy and sturdy, but they can't withstand the bombardment of cannons, even if the cannons of the Japanese country are not accurate and powerful, but after a long time, it is difficult to ensure that the gate is not blown down. Even though Li Shundang was angry, he roared and gave the order.

"Drumming. Attack the whole army and kill it! ”

Li Shun's worries are not unreasonable, no, before the Qing artillery battalion completed the adjustment, three solid bullets have been fiercely bombarded on the wooden door of Jianli Gate, in the huge roar, the two wooden doors have been blasted into sawdust, stunned by two huge openings, crumbling. It was already difficult to stop it, and as soon as he saw this, Sei Kazutori became excited, and the katana in his hand slashed, and he roared wildly.

As soon as the drums sounded, more than 5,000 Japanese samurai who had already gathered near the Jianli Gate immediately rushed out of the ambush in unison, brandishing their katanas. At the same time, more than 1,000 Japanese musket teams also began to shoot fiercely, desperately suppressing the firepower of the defenders at the head of the city, and the dense rain of bullets roared towards the head of the city, forcing the defenders to fight back. For a while, I really couldn't take care of the Japanese warriors who were rushing over.

"Order: The reserve team will go up to Lao Tzu in a company and block the gate!"

Seeing that the Japanese were so fierce, Li Shunke was a little unbearable, waved his hand, and hurriedly issued an order, and then saw that the soldiers of a company of the reserve team, under the command of the company commander, rushed to the first fifty meters behind the broken Jianli Gate. The defensive formation was hastily arranged, and more than a dozen machine guns were lined up, pointing straight at the broken gate.

"Call me!"

Although the defenders on the head of the city had fierce firepower, and killed and injured a lot of Japanese warriors along the way, but because of the involvement of the Japanese musket team, they were still unable to stop the wild charge of the Japanese warriors, and soon, dozens of samurai rushed to the broken palace gate, split the broken gate with a sharp axe, and rushed to the palace along the door in a swarm. Hurriedly roared and gave the order to attack.

"Da Da Da ......"

With the order of the commander of the defending company, more than a dozen machine guns fired almost at the same time, and the dense rain of bullets instantly knocked down a large number of the Japanese warriors who rushed into the door hole, but the follow-up Japanese warriors still rushed forward desperately, and soon, the corpses were stacked layer by layer, and after a while, they were already high at the door hole, blocking the firing range of the Qing army's machine guns, and the desperately charging Japanese warriors took the opportunity to roll and rush into the palace, but unfortunately they were swept by the Qing soldiers' platoons, and it was difficult to rush close to the position of the Qing army at allBut even so, the red-eyed warriors of the Japanese Kingdom refused to stop, regardless of moving forward and moving forward.

"Get on the bayonet and press down all the widows!"

Although the firepower of the Qing army is extremely fierce, but the rate of fire is limited after all, as more than a dozen machine guns began to replace the barrels one after another, the density of firepower has been irrepressibly reduced, and the Japanese warriors who rushed madly took the opportunity to break through the fire blockade of the Qing army, and rushed towards the Qing army array with a strange scream......

"Report to the army commander, the first brigade of the cavalry division has been assembled, please give the commander instructions!"

At four o'clock in the morning, the sun was already setting in the west, but the wharf of Osaka Port was still busy, and groups of heavily armed soldiers lined up along the gangplank from the boat to the shore, and the first cavalry brigade to land was already lined up in a neat starting formation.

"Attack!"

Taning River didn't talk nonsense, and after returning the salute, he immediately gave a loud order.

"Yes!"

Battle answered in a loud voice, hurried back to the array, took the reins of the horse from the orderly, turned over on the horse's back, and then waved his hand and shouted loudly: "All are here, follow me, go!" ”

"Order: Send a report to Brigade Commander Li immediately, our unit has arrived at Osaka Port, the 1st Cavalry Brigade has taken the lead in attacking, I hope your unit will stick to the imperial palace and buy time for our unit to gather and annihilate the bandits, this order, the commander of the Second Army Taning River!"

Tanin River did not pay attention to the attack of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, raised his hand, and gave the order in a low voice.

"Yes!"

As soon as the order was given, one of his own heralds who was on the side answered the promise loudly, and hurried to the temporary command post set up on the dock, and went to arrange for the telegram to be taken without mentioning it......

"The dogs are coming up again, fight!"

At three o'clock, it was the darkest time, the officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps, who had been fighting hard for a day and a night, had just gasped for air, and they heard the alarm from the sentry coldly, and the soldiers who had been exhausted immediately woke up, jumped up one after another, put the wall in their hands on the broken palace wall, and aimed at the faint crowd is a wild sweep, until the Japanese warriors who tried to take advantage of the darkness to sneak attack howled miserably, but even so, it was difficult to resist the desperate impact of the Japanese warriors, and soon, The roaring warriors rushed to the dilapidated palace walls, and a fierce hand-to-hand battle began again near the Jianli Gate, where the soldiers on both sides shouted and strangled together, swords and spears fought, flesh and blood flying, and no one refused to back down in the slightest.

Kill, kill again! Although the Qing officers and soldiers who had been fighting hard for a long time were already tired, none of them escaped from the battle, and no one called for reinforcements, no one was around, not only Jianlimen was in a fierce battle, but the rest of the places were also fighting, all the reserves had already been exhausted, and the remaining officers and soldiers could only rely on blood and courage to do the final fight, even if they were killed in battle, they would never give in half a step!

"Woo, woo, woo......"

Just as the Marines were in a bitter battle, a loud trumpet suddenly sounded outside the city, and a group of cavalry galloped out of the woods less than two miles from the city, rushing towards the city like thunder.

"Close the gates, close the gates!"

Because the war unfolded in the city, the gate of Kyoto was not closed, and when the movement was heard, the few Japanese people on the city head panicked, and roared again and again to close the open city gate, the reaction was not slow, but unfortunately it was too late, and before the Japanese people ran down the city, more than 100 officers and soldiers of the first brigade of cavalry who had been lurking outside the city in advance had already swarmed up, and shot the swarming Japanese people on the spot, and successfully controlled the south gate of Kyoto.

"Rush into the city and kill me!"

As soon as he saw that the city gate was already under his control, even though he was excited, he roared and led his troops into the city like thunder, regardless of whether the Japanese people along the way fled or surrendered, and the sabers circled left and right to kill all the Japanese people who stood in the way.

Chaotic, completely chaotic, under the sudden attack, the already heavy casualties of the Wa country side completely messed up, whether it was a samurai or a farmer all fled in chaos, in order to avoid the wild impact of the Qing cavalry, the original imperfect command system completely collapsed, under the trampling of men and horses on each other, the casualties were incomparable, the entire Kyoto city corpse mountain blood sea, its state is really like hell on earth, just a charge down, the officers and soldiers of the first brigade of cavalry have been killed from the south gate to the north city gate, The only two gates in Kyoto were successfully controlled, and the chaotic Japanese people in the city became turtles in the urn......
