Chapter 218: The Charm of the Japanese

At this time, more Japanese ships appeared on the sea, and all the battleships escorting the Weihaiwei naval base were dispatched, but only a few gunboats and torpedo boats. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info These warships can't be counted as battleships at all.

At this time, it was no longer the time to consider these issues, and just when Li Hongzhang was organizing the people to resist, Li Chengmou in Dalian also sent a telegram. Both Dalian and Lushun were attacked by Japanese warships and land forces.

The present situation made the guards feel numb, because these Japanese were no longer human beings at all, and they were like sheep, and after landing on the beach, they immediately rushed towards the tidal flat positions in China.

Even the most basic instinct to evade was not made, and after Li Hongzhang saw such a report, he wanted to go to the front line to take a look. But the soldiers under his command did not give the marshal a chance at all.

Shang Rongqian, who was in command of the General Staff, ordered the 7th Division of the Guards Army, which was stationed in Beijing, to be on alert after receiving the battle report. This time Japan is gambling. "The reason is abnormal, it will be a demon!"

At this time, the Japanese made the last act of death, and at this time, the armies of the Chinese Empire in North China began to move. The militia, the armed police, the marines, and the army are constantly supporting in the direction of Tianjin Wei, Port Arthur, Dalian Port, and Liugong Island of Weihaiwei.

Two years of brightness. On April 5, 1895, at about 6:30 a.m., the navy on Liugong Island could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The Japanese finally stopped the attack for the time being, all the barrels were burned red, and the cooling water from the water-cooled machine guns had evaporated. But in the heat of battle, there was simply no time to refuel the heavy machine gun.

Now although the Japanese have stopped attacking, all the fighters are exhausted and collapsed, and they simply do not have the strength to leave their combat posts. It wasn't until the arrival of the armed police force behind them that the soldiers of these marines breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the sky was thick with clouds, and the visibility was less than 500 meters, so you could not see what was going on the sea. The occasional sound of ships colliding in Bohai Bay can be heard, and the sound of Japanese soldiers who are not dead moaning and cursing are constantly being heard.

About five hundred meters in front of them, there was a mound of corpses at least two meters high. After the fall of their comrades in front, these Japanese still bravely climbed up to the block of the corpses and continued to charge themselves.

Until the bullets that came out of the Chinese Empire pierced their chests, pierced their heads, and pierced their necks, until they drained their last drop of blood, until they were completely unconscious!

Looking at the hills composed of corpses in front of them, an inexplicable fear arose in the hearts of many Chinese soldiers, are the Japanese in front still human! What's the difference between this and ants? It is not known which fire fired the first shot, and then heavy machine guns and infantry guns rang out again on the entire front.

The fortress guns in the fort also began to fire, no matter what was in front of them, and the previous training content was started, starting from the coastal seaside of Port Arthur and Dalian Port on the opposite shore. Started the fixed-point clean-up along the way, frantically pouring ammunition.

Weihaiwei, Lushun, and Dalian were all key ports of the navy, and the defense forces deployed in these three places played a key role at this time. In one night, at least 100,000 Japanese corpses fell on the three beaches.

The Chinese Empire determined this figure in later statistics, but Japan was always secretive about this number and never determined this matter. But Fairy Ah put another thing on Li Hongzhang's request, which almost drove the old man crazy.

Sheng Xuanhuai, who was in Tianjin, had already received a clear battle report, and there was a Japanese army with very strong fighting force, and they were the first to go to the port of Tianjin. Before the Tientsin guards' troops arrived, two forces broke through the defensive line and fled westward.

This incident is what worries Li Hongzhang, Li Hongzhang called Shang Rongqian, hoping that he will immediately organize forces to intercept it, and it is best to eliminate some Japanese troops as soon as possible, so as not to cause losses to the people!

However, for the sake of the safety of Shang Rongqian's first division, it was impossible to throw all the troops into intercepting these small Japanese forces. In this way, Li Hongzhang's heart was half cold, and now Li Hongzhang's reputation in China has been questioned.

This time, the Japanese advance team landed in Tianjin, and really broke through the defense line of the navy and marines, and attacked in the direction of the Beijing Division. In any case, Li Hongzhang, the marshal of the navy, is to blame.

Li Hongzhang put down the phone and shouted loudly; "Send a telegram to Ding Ruchang and Liu Buyun immediately! Hurry back! Hurry back! Hurry back! Yes! ”

At 15 o'clock on April 5, the Military General Staff of the Chinese Empire issued a martial law order at the highest level throughout the country. The entire southeast coast entered a wartime defensive state, and all ships coming and going had to go through the inspection of the armed police and navy of the Chinese Empire before they could be allowed to enter the port.

The entire coastal area has been affected by this incident, and a lot of business transactions and times have been affected. At first, no one cared about these things, but then someone began to analyze why things had developed to such a point.

That is Li Hongzhang's inaction, if the Japanese fleet had been annihilated earlier, instead of restoring the bad idea of the Ryukyu Kingdom, the Japanese would not have landed on the land of China at all. So at this time, the whole country is brewing again, and the call for Li Hongzhang to resign!

April 5 at 4 p.m., 20 p.m. For a whole day, the forts of the Bohai Rim of the Chinese Empire were pouring cannonballs on the entire Bohai Sea, and it was not the sound of breaking the air in the sky. The hearts of the soldiers hiding in the trenches calmed down a little. Especially those old soldiers, they can't hear this sound and can't sleep.

It was getting dark, and because of the fog, the gunboats and torpedo boats on Liugong Island did not explore the open sea and returned. So what the situation was outside, the coastal defenders of the Chinese Empire did not know.

Will these crazy Japanese launch such a crazy attack?

In a situation where everything is a mystery, it is slowly getting dark!

This night was spent in horror by the soldiers of the entire coast. At present, the Beijing division has begun the process of martial law, and all those who enter Beijing are guarded by armed police and army soldiers.

In the place where Tianjin and Zhili meet, there is a village called Niuzhuang, which mainly grows vegetables, because it is relatively close to the urban area of Tianjin. Therefore, growing vegetables is the most cost-effective business.

But that morning, at least one company of soldiers came to the village, still in army uniforms, led by a lieutenant, and came in from the east side of the village, and began to gather all the adult men and tell them to call out all their guns.

This rude condition made everyone feel very angry. Because it is the right of every citizen to own a gun, it is very abnormal, someone said at the time; "It's okay to die, but let's hand over our guns, it's absolutely impossible then!"

Without getting to the officer first, he really shot the man who spoke, and the other men were furious. But in front of this group of specially trained professional soldiers, these civilians seem very clumsy.

The resistance of the people led to the slaughter of the entire village, which originally had more than 300 people.

The militiamen who came to encircle the Japanese invading army, because they did not have a unified command, missed the best opportunity from time to time, and even misjudged the situation in many cases, and their own people were injured by their own firepower.

At this time, the Chinese Empire had been pursuing the system of neighboring watch, which reflected its own merits. This Japanese secret service team continued to lose a large number of personnel along the way to the west, and came to Guozhuang at the southern end of Pingkai District, Tianjin.

They no longer had the ability to attack forward, and this was their final battleground.

In the second year of Guangming, 1985, at about 22:59 p.m. on April 6. The cavalry brigade of the 3rd Guards Division of the Japanese Empire, the squadron leader of the special operations brigade, Kaichi Nakagawa, looked desperately at the more and more Chinese outside.

Since the landing of his army with his army that night, Kaichi Nakagawa has been advancing westward, all the way. The Chinese troops encountered on the way were few in number and simply could not stop his attack.

At the beginning, Nakagawa Kaichi was very confident that as long as they could attack the vicinity of the Beijing Division, they would let the envoys of other countries see that the troops of the Great Japanese Empire could attack the capital of the Chinese Empire.

Even if the strategic goal of this time is achieved, even if the entire 600-strong special combat team members are all dead, it will be nothing. As long as the Chinese Empire rounds the Japanese peace talks, any kind of loss is acceptable.

But the current situation is no longer as originally imagined, and the number of regular troops on the road is really small, but the ubiquitous militia, and even the ubiquitous dreams of the Chinese people, also make them tremble.

The weapons used by the people of these Chinese empires are very advanced, the lion rifle is only the most basic equipment, and there are many civilians who use submachine guns, grenadiers, light machine guns and so on.

Such a thing was something that Kaichi Nakagawa did not expect, and with the blows everywhere, his special combat team could only fight constantly, and there was no chance to rest at all. The attrition in the battle was very fast, and the ammunition was depleted too quickly.

But these people of the Chinese Empire outside really didn't feel sorry for their bullets at all. Many people are reluctant to eat even a meal of meat in normal times, and saving money to buy a gun is the top priority.

Normally, I don't have any chance to use it, but today I have a rare opportunity to use it. With a telegram from the government of the Tianjin Special Administrative Region, the forces around the entire Tianjin perimeter were mobilized.

These forces began to gradually converge, and the army chasing Nakagawa and Ichi had nowhere to escape. Last night, when the other party had not yet gathered an effective response force, he captured the village of Guozhuang. Although the resistance in the village was strong, it did not resist the strangulation of a wing of the main Japanese.

When there was no gunfire around, Kaichi Nakagawa thought it was safe, and at the tense moment, he ordered the troops to replenish supplies on the spot and take a break. Armament and disposal of the wounded. Before dawn, there is also a night to get out of here.

When the group came to the outside of the village, they found that the situation in the village was not right, and immediately began to fire at the village, and some young Japanese soldiers began to return fire, and soon repelled the attack of the people.

But because of these gunshots, the location of the Japanese special combat team was leaked, and Kaichi Nakagawa immediately ordered his troops to leave here, and when the Japanese soldiers after the whole team came to the west of Guozhuang Village, the armed police, militia and other brigades had already been killed.

The two sides did not use any verbal exchanges, and the meeting was a fight. Kaichi Nakagawa did not pay attention to the militia and armed police in front of him, and ordered the troops to rush over. But what he didn't expect was the firepower of these people.

Many of the inexperienced civilians were shot by the Japanese soldiers without firing many bullets at all, and the Japanese soldiers began to shoot at the people of the Chinese Empire on the way to the charge.

At this time, many people were shot and fell to the ground, but no one retreated. Because behind them is their hometown, and behind them are their own families and property. Yo, let these Japanese pass, and the consequences will be like Guo Zhuang.

So these Chinese men began to guard the land under their feet without giving up an inch of land. The people in front kept falling, and the people behind kept rushing forward with their submachine guns.

At that time, the Japanese special combat team could no longer stand it, and they had killed more than 100 people and injured more than 200 in this counter-fire.

Therefore, Nakagawa Kaichi Osa ordered all the Japanese soldiers to retreat to the village, first of all, to wait for reinforcements. This order ruined all of Zhonghe's dreams.

When the Japanese army retreated to Guozhuang, the people realized the cruelty of the war, and many men were killed in this battle. After the ceasefire, the people began to search for the bodies of their loved ones, crying, scolding, and shouting.

The armed police who arrived in the back, the militia began an organized offensive, first of all, infantry artillery, mortar attacks, not sparing an inch of land. At this time, Zhonghe Kada Dazuo was very annoyed, if only he hadn't killed all the people in this village when he first came.

There are still people from the Huaxia Empire in this village, and the soldiers outside will have to take care of their safety and lives, and they will not bomb indiscriminately like now, but there is no chance of restarting all this.

As more and more Chinese people and troops gathered outside, Nakagawa Kaichi knew that the final time had come, and he first ordered all the seriously wounded who had lost their combat ability to be broken, and then ordered other soldiers to attack the Chinese defense line.

At about 3:22 a.m. on April 8, 1895, the Japanese special combat team attacking the capital of the Chinese Empire was annihilated on the spot by the armed police force, the militia force, and the armed people of the nearby empire in Guozhuang Village, Nankai Jia County, Tianjin Wei Special Administrative Region!

It is a pity that the Japanese special forces, which were trained in the Prussian Empire, which was known as the strongest army at that time, did not survive the arrival of the Royal Army of the Chinese Empire.

Of course, the people of the Chinese Empire who blocked this time also paid a heavy price, which is also the main reason why Shang Rongqian and Li Hongzhang were impeached later, because they were afraid that the impact would be too huge, so in the 50 years after the war, how many people died in China in this blocking war, the people, the Tianjin Special Administrative Region Government, the Ministry of the Interior, the General Staff, and the Armed Police Force have never been unified.

On April 9, 1895, the second year of the Chinese Empire, the Japanese army in the north of Heilongjiang launched a large-scale attack, and the royal army of the Chinese Empire on the battlefield of Heilongjiang had reached 300,000 at this time.

However, there were too many strategic points to defend in Zhangzhidong, and the soldiers on the front line seemed to be a little insufficient, and the front line, which had been quiet for more than 20 days, suddenly launched a large-scale attack with at least 400,000 Japanese troops on the whole line.

The troops on the front line were also faced with the phenomenon that there were too many Japanese people to kill them at all. Many soldiers of the Royal Army felt that these Japanese could not be killed, because even if they were shot, they would still get up from the corpses.

After a difficult resistance, on April 10, the troops deployed on the northern defense line of Heilongjiang began to retreat, and Batu, who was deployed on the second front, once again became the commander of the front.

After inspecting the fortifications on the front line, when he returned to the headquarters with the arrangement of the artillery fire, he saw Zeng Lingqin, who had retired from the front line.

The current Zeng Lingqin is the lord of the largest land in Mobei Province, and he also has a large area of land in Heilongjiang Province. On the one hand, it is because people were born with a golden key, and on the other hand, this prince is really diligent.

When other Mongolian princes had enough money to spend, they began to live in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, but this prince never left the grassland. Open mines, build factories, build railways, and build towns on the steppe!

Many members of the current Senate have rushed to this guy, don't you want to be the king of your own right? Look at a lot of things he does to buy people's hearts!

Many people gave ideas to the Ministry of the Interior, and asked the emperor to immediately order that Zeng Sen Greenqin and Gadamerin had always been at odds, and asked Gadamerin to go to Mobeixing Province, and the two of them would be divided into Mobeixing Province, so that the central government would be relieved.

Therefore, the Ministry of the Interior gave Gadamerin the title of King of Khan to Gadamerin, hereditary replacement, and the rank of knighthood in the empire was the same as that of the earl. Originally, I thought that after Gadamerin arrived on the grassland, he would work against Zeng Lingqin all day long.

But I didn't expect that the two of them were reconciled, and now it seems to be a family.

Zeng Greenqin saw Mentu come in, he straightened his figure, trying to show his majestic side, in fact, he was very tired now, and he hadn't closed his eyes for two days. Both fingers were yellowed from the cigarette smoke.

After Mentu saw Zeng Greenqin, he did not salute the army, but raised his arms above his head, and then crossed them in front of his chest, bowed his body at an angle of almost 90 degrees, and spoke Mongolian in his mouth, praising Zeng Greenqin's achievements.

All the Mongolian warriors who followed behind Mentu followed behind Mentu and saluted Zeng Lingqin, who was like a god of war! After all, in the battle to recover the entire grassland, this prince has made great contributions, and this prince's personal virtue is very good!

When the other officers saw this, they saluted Zeng Greenqin and went out. This is all the Mongolian officers gathered around Zeng Lingqin. At this time, Zeng Greenqin also left the chair and sat on the ground with his old subordinates.

Zeng Grinch took out another pack of cigarettes, which were printed with the golden dragon logo. These cigarettes were now enjoyed by agents to the nobles, but they could be purchased on the market for a large price.

Zeng Greenqin took out one by himself, and then sent the others to everyone. Zeng Greenqin asked while smoking a cigarette while looking at Mentu; "How's the battle line preparing!"

Mentu said; "On the entire main front, a total of more than 600 heavy artillery pieces have been deployed, with 170,000 main battle troops and 300,000 other reserve troops.

Marshal Jang Zhidong said that the war in Silla Province is also very urgent, and the troops of the six divisions that originally supported us have been transferred to Silla, so our soldiers may be tightened. ”

Zeng Greenqin took a hard puff of his cigarette and said; "Zhang Zhidong, this old guy, didn't tell the truth!"

Mentu said; "Is there any news from the prince?"

Zeng Greenqin said; "There was news of internal affairs, and the emperor ordered the royal army to be stationed in Kunming, Guiyang, Guilin in the southeast, and Kaifeng in northern China. The 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th armies all headed for the battlefields in the north.

It's been half a year since the order was issued, but there is still no trace of these troops, so Zhang Zhidong must have an ulterior secret! ”

Mentu didn't speak, he thought about the information contained in the prince's words in his heart, the current prince is very different from before, the prince never let his subordinates guess when he speaks, but now Mentu finds that the prince thinks more and more about the "sour Confucian" they hated before! "Those people.

Zeng Greenqin finished the last puff of his cigarette, then stood up and spoke; "You are all fine, there is an evil nature in this Japanese attack, it doesn't look like they are fighting with people, these Japanese are like a group of powerful ghosts. I don't have any sense of myself at all! ”

After finishing speaking, Zeng Lingqin left the tent, and then left with his own guards, his defense line is on the fifth layer, and the fortifications, supplies, communications, transportation and other facilities along the line, Zhang Zhidong has already been built, so that it can be used occasionally today.

Now it seems that this old man is still a bit serious, but this old man still hasn't sent his own descendants to the front line. So this old man still has his own selfishness, and Zeng Greenqin also knows it.

So far, the most capable of fighting in the Chinese army are the Mongolian militia and the ethnic groups that originally lived in the northeast. Although the losses were great, they also brought the soldiers and civilians of these nationalities into contact with the most modern things of this era.

The post-war Far East also had the highest proportion of industrialized population in the country, and this advantage lasted for three decades.

Changchun, Jilin, the headquarters of Zhangzhidong. Zhang Zhidong was originally a southerner, and this winter was the most difficult winter in his life, especially the dryness in winter, which was a disaster that the old man could not escape no matter what he did!

Zhang Zhidong, who almost never gets frozen, will also have bleeding holes on his feet, and the dry air makes the old man never leave the teapot, Rao. There is also the problem of heating in the north, when in the south, it is enough to burn a charcoal stove.

However, in the north, Zhangzhidong encountered a cold temperature of minus 40 to 50 degrees Celsius, and he had to light a stove in the room, and the smoke and dust flew so that the old man could not breathe!

Emperor Guangming knew the bad environment in the north, so in order to sympathize with this important minister, he asked him to return to Beijing to take over the work of the General Staff, and let Shang Rongqian command in the Far East.

But this order made Zhang Zhidong refuse, because now he is no longer his own marshal, and now every marshal is a mountain. Looking to the south, where is the Zuo Zongtang Chu army, Duan Qi Ruichuan army occupied.

The sea is almost all Li Hongzhang's territory, and Silla and Mukden are Yuan Shikai's world. Zeng Greenqin in the north was obviously the biggest beneficiary, but in the development process of Mobei, too many people came here, so the territory of Zhang Zhidong's Qingfeng Army (Hunan Army lineage) could only be in the north.

The marshal is not distributed according to military merits, but according to the mountain, and now almost every mountain has an heir, but Zhang Zhidong's faction has never seen a suitable leader.

So the old man is very anxious, in order to maintain stability, he can only hold on to the front line, hoping to find a suitable candidate during this period, otherwise as soon as he dies, the entire Qingfeng army will collapse. But as long as he is alive, whether it is the emperor, the General Staff, or other marshals, the generals will give him three points of thin face!

April in Jilin Province does not have the cold wind of winter, the sun is no longer so stingy, and the snow covering the white mountains and black water begins to melt gradually, all of which shows that spring is coming back.

Especially in the Far Eastern General Headquarters where plum blossoms are planted, the plum blossoms in full bloom, accompanied by the ice and snow that have not completely melted, look particularly handsome and cold!

Zhang Zhidong finally survived this winter, and after the ice and snow melted, it was like Zhang Zhidong who was reborn again. I became swept away from the decadence of the past, and began to actively deal with official business. At the same time, the construction of the railway, which he was most concerned about, could start, and at this time, Marshal Zhang Zhidong had the top priority in his heart.

Zhang Zhidong sat on his handsome case, and in front of him was a sand table diagram of the entire war in the Far East. Hanging in the distance is the overall map of the war in the Far East, in fact, the current Zhang Zhidong's eyes have no way to see the map in front of him clearly.

But Zhang Zhidong is very clear in his heart about the current war situation, including the people in the Guannei who are scolding him for being incompetent and losing a large amount of land, and the voices that let him step down immediately, resign, and even assassinate him have never stopped.

If it weren't for Li Hongzhang and Yuan Shikai, two old friends, who were on top together, there would have been no way to stand up, and the three of them often talked on the phone, encouraging and supporting each other! In fact, the biggest support in their hearts comes from the Emperor of Light!

The Emperor of Light has issued an edict to determine the country!

The First Sino-Japanese War had a bearing on the historical trend of China in the next 100 years and on the survival and disgrace of China in the world. Therefore, even if this battle is lost, I will retreat to Nanjing to accompany the capital, and I will fight the Japanese to the end.

The generals on the front line don't have to worry, as long as you are motivated and strive for the best goal, all the consequences will be borne by me!

Winner! Reward according to merit!

Loser! I have made an edict against myself!

The loser on Zhang Zhidong's table, the eleventh edict issued by the Emperor of Light!

The emperor's face is thick enough, but every guilty edict is a pressure on the front line! The people of the whole country don't think that the emperor is at fault, it's all because these generals are incompetent!

At this time, the emperor came forward again, these generals were all appointed by me, and it was my fault to defeat them, and I will be guilty of my own edict next time!

Since the beginning of the war, the Bright Emperor has issued more guilty edicts than all previous emperors combined! And looking at the current situation, it must be a record to be broken!

It was a staff officer who came in, saluted and spoke; "Marshal! An urgent telegram from the General Staff! ”

Zhang Zhidong said; "Read it!"

The staff officer reads; "According to reliable sources, the number of troops set out from Japan this time is between two million, and it is the last fight of the whole country. Retreat to the sixth and seventh lines of defense, and even withdraw from Changchun City!

--------------- the commander-in-chief of the three armies of the Chinese Empire! ”

Zhang Zhidong looked at the generals under him and said; "The emperor is really generous! You can even stop the whole of Heilongjiang and Jilin, and then retreat back. We have arrived at Rehe, where and Yuan Shikai's commander-in-chief is not far away!

Can't be in the retreat, on the letter to the Ministry of the Interior and the General Staff!

Zhang Zhidong swore to die in Changchun! ”

This staff officer is carefully recording Zhang Zhidong's words!

After saying that, he asked again; "Is there anything unusual about Kyoshi?"

The staff officer said; "The telegram we sent from the General Staff said that Marshal Duan Qirui and General Wu Peifu have arrived at the General Staff!"

Zhang Zhidong looked very excited, he said; "A bunch of little kids! How could he be a marshal! I really don't know what the emperor thinks! ”

Ahem!

Zhang Zhidong coughed twice, then tried to adjust his breathing evenly, and then spoke; "Inform Zeng Greenqin and Mentu that Gadamerin should come to Changchun, Jilin as soon as possible, I'm afraid that time in Changchun is running out!"

Before I leave, what else can I help them with, let them bring it up quickly! ”

In the second year of Guangming, on April 7, 1895, the army of the Chinese Empire once again retreated to the vicinity of the 38th line of defense line, and this time the retreat was very hasty, the army of the Chinese Empire was equipped with a large number of cars, so the losses were small, but the Korean army with two legs lost nearly 50,000 people this time.

It turned out that because at the beginning. The battle on the front was very smooth, so Yuan Shikai took his chief of staff to the front line of the Korean battlefield. Also with him was Li Kun, who was already the king of the Korean Kingdom, but these officials in Huaxia didn't take that matter seriously.

When they came to the periphery of Seoul, the hearts of all the personnel were full of emotion, and in an instant, how many things had changed, Min Yongyu's army was the most excited, and he led his army to start the recovery of Seoul first.

But the reconquest and release into the city was very slow. The Japanese army was unaware of the power of resistance everywhere, and many Korean soldiers had almost lost their minds, and they were too eager to avenge their families.

Many North Korean soldiers died on the way to the charge, which lasted for several days.

All this made the army of the Chinese Empire feel very unworthy, so Yuan Shikai, Lu Yonghu, and Zhou Lemin led the troops to begin to lay out the defense line on the line of Suwon, Chuncheon, Sucho, and Incheon.

At the same time, it moves forward regularly and regains lost ground. It was very smooth, but on the night of April 5, a group of Japanese soldiers with green eyes appeared on the newly established defensive line.

Their two little short legs, unaware of the danger of the bullet, screamed strangely. Rushing towards the military positions of the Chinese Empire, the defending forces of the Empire began to put up a difficult resistance. ‘

This kind of hardship is mainly in the heart, because I have never seen such a bloody battlefield. On the open battlefield, every Japanese was running at a high speed, believing that if they ran fast, the bullets would not reach them.

But if they get hit by a bullet, it only means that they are not running fast enough. So the Japanese soldiers on the battlefield began to sprint frantically, and rows of Japanese soldiers fell under the fire of heavy machine guns and infantry guns, grenadiers, mountain artillery.

But these Japanese soldiers didn't seem to see such a dead person, and they still rushed forward excitedly, and they had no intention of stopping at all.

The entire defense line of the Chinese Empire, all the weapons were activated, and when the heavy machine guns were fired, the lines of fire left in the air in the night sky were like weaving a web of death. Fishing in this large pond in North Korea is the life of the Japanese.

That night, the entire defense line of the Chinese Empire, in less than three hours, fired a total of 5 million rounds of bullets and more than 60,000 tons of shells of various types! At this time, Yuan Shikai was also stupid, the consumption of this ammunition was the largest consumption in a single day since the war began on the Korean battlefield.

At that time, when the next day, when they looked at the hillocks of dead bodies on both sides of the entire battle line, stretching for almost no boundaries, the soldiers and generals of the entire Chinese Empire were shocked.

They firmly believed that if they hadn't had enough bullets last night, at least 300,000 Japanese troops on the opposite side would have attacked last night, and every soldier of the Chinese Empire would have been torn to shreds. Yuan Shikai, who only had 50,000 troops along the line, did not dare to take risks.

He ordered the troops along the line to begin to retreat, there was a more important reason, Yuan Shikai did not say, but all the soldiers and generals, except for the Korean New Army and the Silla militia at this time, were unwilling to retreat, and the rest of the soldiers retreated very quickly.

Among them, Min Yongyu came to Yuan Shikai's handsome tent and asked; "Marshal! Why should we retreat! As long as I am given two days, I can take Seoul, and then North Korea will be restored. ”

At this time, Yuan Shikai already had red eyes, chapped lips, and much less hair, but he was not completely bald, and his face was full of oil and dirt. There is no such thing as the marshal's majesty at all!

After hearing Min Yongyu's words, Yuan Shikai threw the cigarette butt on the ground fiercely, regardless of the presence of other generals, and then spoke loudly; “******！ Don't talk to Lao Tzu, facing the corpses of 300,000 Japanese soldiers in front of you, 300,000 people died in one night, but you didn't see a single living Japanese during the whole day, there was no negotiation, no corpse collection, no signs of attack or defense!

What do you say the Japanese are going to do! ”

Min Yongyu was stunned all of a sudden!

Speaking of subordinates being stupid!

Yuan Shikai said; "They were accumulating anger and turning all the Japanese soldiers into devils, so that when they charged, they would forget everything, forget their families, forget their pain, and even forget that they were still alone.

The Japanese in front of them are all beasts, and we can't fight hard against beasts, in the cage they have made, we humans have no chance of winning, we have to go outside the cage! ”

Min Yongyu said; "Marshal! O great rivers and mountains that we have just recovered! Will it just be conceded to the Japanese again? ”

Yuan Shikai said; "Stupid! If you want to stay, stay for yourselves! We must consolidate the defensive line near the 38th parallel, where is the real main battlefield, and where is the insurmountable trench of the Japanese! ”

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shikai left the headquarters with his subordinates, and after Yuan Shikai left, a small group of soldiers began to pour gasoline on the headquarters, and within a few minutes, the entire headquarters turned into a sea of fire.

Then all the fighters got into the car and began to evacuate!

Min Yongyu once again scolded Yuan Shikai in his heart for always burning things, these are all important strategic materials!

Then one of his subordinates asked; "General! Shall we withdraw! ”

Min Yongyu said; "At this time, we should guard the land, we will not withdraw this time, and the order will go down, before it gets dark tonight, we must completely take all the city defenses of Seoul!"

The armies of the Chinese Empire, which had the entire Inchon defensive line, began to retreat on all fronts. Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Yuan Shikai ordered the troops to throw away all the equipment except for weapons, advance lightly, and rush back to the 38th defense line as soon as possible!

At the same time, the army on the 38th Parallel Line was fully prepared and ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time, especially the heavy artillery units along the line. Ready to cover in all directions is the shelling, towards the Japanese attack last night, and the hearts of every soldier are palpitating.
