A huge force slammed into Saigo's body, causing him to nearly fall, and then the pistol fell from Saigo's hand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Saigo subconsciously turned his head from the road and looked in the direction where the bullet was fired.

In the jungle filled with gunsmoke, the figure of a group of red-clothed Qing soldiers was particularly eye-catching.

That's the shipmaster sailor who was called the "Red Devil" by the Japanese!

And among these red-clothed Qing soldiers, the leader turned out to be a young man wearing blue clothes and an official hat.

The young man was holding a rifle with a monocular, pointing in his direction.

Because of the obscuration of the strange rifle, Saigo couldn't see the young man's face clearly, but he could still feel the hateful gaze he was looking at himself.

Saigo felt his strength disappearing rapidly, he opened his mouth to shout, but he couldn't make a sound, blood kept flowing out of his mouth, his body was unsteady, and when he was about to fall, two guards rushed up and helped him.

Several guards gathered around him, holding rifles to shoot at the Qing soldiers in the distance, and the group of red-clothed Qing soldiers also used rifles to shoot this way, and what was even more terrifying was that not far from this group of Qing soldiers, a Qing machine gunner pushing a small wheelbarrow had stopped the car, and with the help of two companions, set up the Gatling machine gun and turned the muzzle back here.

Saigo was stunned for a moment, he wanted to warn everyone, but he could only cough up blood, and he watched as the Qing soldier machine gunner finished preparing to shoot, and opened fire on the group of them.

As the Qing machine gunner slowly shook his grip, the barrel of the Gatling machine gun spat out a long tongue of fire, and a barrage of bullets swept over, and the Japanese soldiers around Saigo Congdao screamed and fell.

Saigo watched from the road as machine gun bullets hit him, but at this time, because of blood loss, he couldn't feel the pain anymore, he only felt that there was a force constantly tearing his body, causing his body to writhe continuously.

Lin Yizhe saw through the binoculars of the sniper rifle that he had been hit by himself and the machine gunner, and at this time, all the Japanese soldiers surrounding Saigo Congdao had been shot and stopped resisting, but the Gatling machine gun continued to roar, and the muzzle of the gun spat out a long tongue of fire, pouring bullets into them quickly.

Saigo Congdao had become a leaky pot of blood at this time, and fell to the ground, and then the guards around him also fell one by one, stacking on top of him.

The machine gun shooter beat the Lin machine gun on the wheelbarrow like the wind, and Lin Yizhe next to him could even clearly feel the strong kinetic energy generated when the bullet was fired, while the deputy on the other side was busy taking the cartridge full of bullets at this time and preparing to replace it.

One cartridge quickly ran out, the machine gunner stopped firing, and the deputy quickly removed the empty cartridge and replaced it with a new one.

"Left, 10 o'clock!" Lin Yizhe commanded in a deep voice, and while pointing the machine gunner's shot, he pulled his sniper rifle and skillfully pushed the bullet into loading. There's no reason why he shouldn't be laid-back, and there's no reason why he shouldn't be as calm and brave as possible at this time.

In this attack organized by Lin Yizhe, the firepower distribution of the Qing army was quite scientific, so the striking force that broke out in the battle was already beyond the strength of the Japanese army.

The ......Lin's machine gun began to roar again, and the rate of fire performance of the rotary machine gun was brought into full play at this time.

"Damn! You can't do it if you look at the spot! Doesn't this gun cost nothing?! "It may have been a Qing machine gunner's aiming problem, and a Huai officer commanding the shooting shouted loudly in the machine gunner's ear.

Lin Yizhe turned his head to look and saw that the Qing machine gunner nodded hurriedly, but his fingers did not let go of the crank, and as a result, a series of bullets shot into the forest instead. Lin Yizhe took a closer look, maybe the machine gunner noticed Lord Futai's gaze, he was too excited, and his body shook like chaff frequently. Of course, this is also largely the vibration of the Lin's machine gun when it is fired.

"Are you fucking okay?!" The Huai Army officer was furious, "Do you need me to fight for you?!" ”

The Qing machine gunner said with some trepidation: "Big ...... My lord...... I can do it...... You...... Mainly...... You're watching here, I'm worried that I won't be able to play. ”

The officer hatefully took the pistol and moved away from his waist, and as soon as he was lying on his stomach, he "snapped" and shot him. However, it is clear that his marksmanship is not very good, and this shot did not hit any target.

Looking at this scene, Lin Yizhe couldn't help but feel a little crying and laughing.

This is the elite of the Huai Army with the highest degree of modernization in the Qing army!

Probably because no one was staring at him anymore, the Huai Army machine gunner returned to normal, and the murmur of Lin's machine gun with metal impact sounded rhythmically. The effect was very intuitive, and the Japanese soldiers who were shot at began to retreat in panic. Lin Yizhe was about to order the machine gun to shift the firing range, but he saw that the people had already moved the muzzle of the gun and started shooting according to his own ideas.

Time passed quietly under close observation and constant summons. At this time, if someone can look down from the sky, they will see that the dense Qing army is divided into four ways to launch an attack on the Japanese camp.

Lin Yizhe held a sniper rifle to shift his horizon to observe the Japanese positions in other directions, and when he saw that the Japanese troops had already retreated under the concentrated fire of the Qing army's machine guns and rifles, he put down his gun and nodded with satisfaction.

At this moment, he heard a piercing scream, and he instinctively shrank his head and shouted, "Shelling! Shelling! Conceal it all! ”

As the commander who was on the front line, he directly commanded 4 battalions of Huai infantry and an artillery team, at this time the artillery should have moved to the predetermined position, and began to shell the rear of the Japanese army to cut off the retreat of the Japanese army, but it may be that something went wrong with the measurement, so that the shells actually fell here.

Several heralds immediately ran to give the order. At the same time, a violent explosion sounded, deafening and overwhelming, covering any sound on the ground, and the light of fire and gunpowder suddenly rose over the Japanese position.

Lin Yizhe and his subordinates crouched on the ground, and Lin Yizhe carefully poked his head to watch the battle, and saw that the situation he feared most - the shells falling on his own heads - did not happen, and then he was relieved.

It seems that the battle plan made by himself this time still has a big loophole!

At this time, the Japanese army was completely in a desperate situation, but it was still fighting the trapped beasts.

The artillery bombardment of the Qing army continued, and compared to the power of the modern army that Lin Yizhe had seen, the shelling at this time was not fierce. However, the feelings of other Huai officers and soldiers are two different things. Because the Qing army's artillery bombardment was very targeted, as a result, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties.

"It's over......"

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, Li Xiande let out a sigh from his heart.

The Japanese originally planned to launch a surprise attack on the Qing army, go to the sea to seize the ships and leave, but now what they did not expect was that the Qing army actually launched a general attack.

Li Xian didn't dare to lie on the ground, because the shock and vibration he received when he was shelled were so great that he could only squat hard to observe, and try his best to expel the excess air from his lungs, so as not to be crushed by the shock wave when he encountered a close bullet.

In fact, in the eyes of Li Xiande, who participated in the American Civil War, the combat skills of the infantry and artillery of the Qing army were very bad. In his opinion, the artillery should be fired first, and the infantry will be attacked after the shelling. But the situation of the Qing army was the opposite.

The artillery bombardment of the Qing army did not last long, and when a lot of thick black smoke columns rose from the Japanese position, the Qing artillery stopped with satisfaction, and the front line sounded almost at the same time "Rush!" "Kill!" "Oriental little devils, your time has come!" The shouts of the Qing army led groups of Qing infantry neatly placing platoons of guns to attack the Japanese position, and the bright bayonets almost dazzled Li Xiande's eyes behind the big tree.

This was an attack by about 2,500 Qing troops, with the obvious intention of destroying the Japanese army in one fell swoop.

Li Xiande looked around and saw the remaining Japanese soldiers and Satsuma samurai jumping out of shelter and rushing towards the Qing army.

When he saw a wounded Japanese officer lying there, weeping and shuddering, he pulled out a lighter and tried to light the broken flag, and he knew that it was time to plan for himself.

Although he wrote a suicide note, it was at most just a sign of his heart to Saigo Komichi, and in his heart, he never intended to die for Japan.

Although he has become a Japanese citizen, now he intends to use his white face to protect himself.

Li Xiande dropped the weapon in his hand, quickly took off his American military uniform, threw it aside, then took out a lighter, lit his military uniform, and quietly ran away.

Wei Rugui, the commander of the Sheng army, attached the slender bayonet to the rifle, pulled out the revolver and opened the nose, and shouted: "Brothers, follow me!" ”

Although he took a rifle with a bayonet, he didn't want to fight the bayonet, but wanted to hold the cage of hundreds of Huai soldiers at the outpost of the front camp to prevent them from breaking up under the counterattack of the Japanese army!

"My lord, Lord Liu, he, he!" One of his own soldiers pointed in shock.

Wei Rugui followed the gesture and looked at it, only to see that the body of Liu Chaohu, the commander of the Huai Army, who was in the lead, suddenly froze, his body shook, and he slowly fell backwards......

Several guards hurriedly carried Liu Chaohu back, and the others were at a loss for what to do between the enemy and our positions. Some continued to rush forward, some looked for officials, and some followed the few people who carried Liu Chaohu back...... The situation was extremely chaotic, and many people were hit by bullets fired by Japanese soldiers in this brief confusion.

Wei Rugui was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he led the team to the end of the Huai army from the oblique spur, just to catch Liu Chaohu who was carried down.

Wei Rugui didn't have time to see Liu Chaohu's injuries, and the chaotic team had to be commanded.

"Tell the brothers to keep rushing, don't stop, rush hard!" Wei Rugui shouted at the crowd.

The guards around him followed him forward. The several shipmasters and sailors who came with him did not speak, and their feet sped up and passed Wei Rugui. At this time, I can't help but say that Wei Rugui himself has set an example. Seeing that the commanders can be so brave, can they still be a small soldier without selling their lives?

At this time, although the Japanese army was quite tenacious, the queue no longer existed, and because of the loss of their commander, they could not even organize a decent platoon of guns, and in this small area, they were also in a disadvantageous position in numbers, but they still fought back in groups.

Wei Rugui shouted: "Brothers, fight with the Oriental devils!" The Qing army let out a burst of shouts, rushed forward desperately, met the Japanese stragglers, scuffled, stabbed, and shot into a melee, the Chinese screams and the Japanese screams were mixed together, and the flesh and blood of the Chinese and the Japanese were blurred together.

Gunshots rang out everywhere, and there were bursts of killings.

Wei Rugui only felt that his brain was hot for a while, and his palms holding the pistol were extremely sweaty, and even when he was running, he could sense that his body was trembling slightly, but he couldn't tell whether this was the result of timidity or excitement? In fact, the desperate counterattack of the Japanese army did not give him time to distinguish.

Wei Rugui looked up and saw the Japanese officers wielding shiny katanas running at the front of the line, followed by squadron flags and a group of blind and tough soldiers. They didn't shoot, they just rushed forward desperately, not paying any attention to the bullets whizzing by them and the flesh-and-blood companions around them! In the blink of an eye, the guys in black uniforms rushed closer.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Wei Rugui didn't aim either, but fired the revolver with just his hand, and a Japanese soldier in black clothes and black hats rushed in front of him.

Wei Rugui took a breath and looked left and right worriedly, thinking about what he should say to boost morale, but he couldn't think of a suitable language in his eagerness. And this short gap in the battle also made him have no time to think.

The guns of the Japanese rang out, and more accurate shots than the Qing army came! Maybe it's because of the lack of resources in the island country, or maybe it's because there's not much ammunition left, and the Japanese at this time pay more attention to the effectiveness of each bullet!

Wei Rugui felt that the Japanese bullets were flying over his scalp. A brother who had been shot next to him fell down with a muffled grunt. His mind suddenly remembered the tragic white-knuckle battle with the Japanese army when he first came to Taiwan, and his face suddenly turned a little pale.

This time, I riveted with the Japanese again!

Suddenly, a shrill whistling sound came from far and near, accompanied by a dull rumble behind it.

Wei Rugui looked forward in surprise, a piece of firelight suddenly burst out in the ranks of the Japanese army, and the loud sound of "puff puff" brought out the violent tremor of the ground, and a wave of air rushed back to him, making him feel unable to breathe normally, but he looked excitedly at the fire and gunsmoke in front of him, and watched the Japanese who made him a little timid being blown up one by one!

This array of artillery was so accurate that a swarm of shells fell on the heads of the Japanese, each shell seemed to have eyes, and it landed in a crowded place, and countless explosion points exploded at the same time.

Wei Rugui suddenly came to his senses, suddenly came to his senses again, and shouted in the rumbling cannon: "Brothers, fight with the Oriental devils with bayonets!" ”

In response to his roar, a relieved, courageous shout soon sounded around him.

At this time, Zhou Shengchuan and Tang Dingkui, who were standing on the observation post on the mountain cliff, were equally agitated, shocked by the sudden and accurate shelling, and the two Huai army generals were speechless.

They have fought a cannon that they have dealt with all their lives, and they can do this! Artillery can look at the map and fire accurately! Cannons of various calibers at positions at different distances can simultaneously fire shells at the same place!

Not long after, the Japanese troops, who could not bear the shelling and were looking for shelter from the terrain, burst into brilliant fires again. Witnessing the tremendous power of the shelling, Zhou Shengchuan slapped Tang Dingkui's shoulder and shouted, "Well done!" What a fucking relief! Again, beat the fucking wokk again! ”

Although Tang Dingkui was also excited, at this moment, he was more worried about Lin Yizhe's safety.

The shelling stopped instantly, and the few remaining remnants of the Japanese army began to howl and fight back against the Qing army, and the two sides became entangled and started a fierce white-knuckle battle.

The final moment has finally arrived.

In the woods, Lin Yizhe stood quietly under a big tree, holding a sniper rifle, carefully observing the battle situation through the scope.

At this time, many of the shipmasters and sailors who guarded him also joined the ranks of the white-knuckle battle.

Lin Yizhe saw a Japanese samurai desperately waving the katana in his hand, fighting fiercely with several Huai soldiers wielding long knives, he cut down two Huai soldiers in a row, but only received a bayonet, but did not fall.

Hayashi sighed, took aim at the Japanese samurai, pulled the trigger sharply, and fired a shot like a sniper to Saigo.

"Bang!" The bullet hit the Japanese samurai accurately, but because the samurai's body was always moving, the shot did not hit the samurai in the heart, but only his left shoulder.

The Japanese samurai's body shook, but he did not fall, seeing that the other party was shot, a Huai soldier howled and rushed up, and slashed at the Japanese samurai's chest, but the Japanese samurai's body was still strong, and the katana in his hand stabbed the Huai soldier in half.

The two stared at each other, sprayed each other with a mouthful of blood, and then fell in unison.

Several other Huai soldiers who rushed forward stepped forward and pushed away their companions who were still holding katanas, and then one of the Huai soldiers swung their knives and violently cut off the heads of the Japanese samurai, he pulled the hair of the human heads, and shook the bloody human heads in front of several companions, with a smug look on his face.

Seeing that he counted the head as his own, several of his companions were obviously very dissatisfied, and quarreled loudly with him, and even raised their knives, completely forgetting that the battle was not over.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yizhe couldn't help but sigh.

The shortcomings of the Qing army can be said to be deep in the bone marrow!
