Chapter 219: A Different Wei Rugui

In the field of vision of the telescope, I saw Wei Rugui, who was not wearing official clothes, riding on a horse, brandishing a waist knife and rushing across the bridge, more than a dozen personal soldiers were rolling and crawling behind his horse as if they were dead, and then behind were two sentinels holding rifles and then running behind Sheng Jun.

This peculiar scene made Qin Chuan couldn't help but be surprised.

Qin Chuan understood that this must be Wei Rugui who saw that the siege of the Songyuan Fort was in a critical situation, and led his troops over to reinforce it.

However, in Qin Chuan's memory, isn't this Wei Rugui scolded by the mainstream historical materials of later generations to be incomplete, and he is a historical sinner who is greedy for life and afraid of death, fears the enemy and avoids war, and fails in Pyongyang!

But how could such a sinner through the ages not avoid the sword when he was in battle, and at the most critical moment of the battle, he took the lead and forgot his life to rush to the front?

Although Qin Chuan now thinks that Wei Rugui is not what he said in the mainstream historical materials of later generations, he still opened his mouth in surprise and was speechless for a long time when he saw such a scene.

Qin Chuan knew that Wei Rugui should be in the west of the city and Ye Zhichao commanded the Sheng Army and Gubeikou to train the army to resist the attack of the main force of the Fifth Division commanded by the commander of the Japanese Fifth Division, Nozu Michikan, but how did Wei Rugui run to the south of the city?

Could it be that the west of the city has been lost?

No, if that's the case, Wei Rugui still has time to come here.

Is it the Japanese army in the west of the city who has withdrawn?

Qin Chuan heard the sound of cannons in the west of the city in the morning, which was a sudden thought of Qin Chuan, and his attention was attracted by the battlefield in the south of the city.

Thinking of this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but be shocked again, and hurriedly listened to the movement in the west of the city, and there was really no gunfire in the west, so Qin Chuan was relieved.

If there is no sound of gunfire, it means that the battle over there is over, otherwise even if the Japanese army breaks into the city, there will be street fighting, and gunfire is inevitable.

But could it be that Wei Rugui and Ye Zhichao commanded the Sheng Army and the Gubeikou Training Army, which not only successfully blocked the attack of the main force of the Japanese Fifth Division, but even repelled the main force of the Fifth Division?

Thinking of this, Qin Chuan didn't believe his judgment a little, you must know that the main force of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army has more than 5,000 people, and the Sheng Army and the Gubeikou Training Army combined are only less than 4,000 people. With 4,000 against 5,000, can you defeat the Japanese army?

If this is the case, this Sheng Army is really not in vain!

If Qin Chuan knew that Ye Zhichao and Wei Rugui not only repelled the attack of the main force of the Japanese Fifth Division with fewer enemies, but even sent hundreds of cavalry out of the city to chase and kill the Japanese army, I am afraid that he would be even more surprised that he could not distinguish between the east and the west, the north and the south.

Just when Qin Chuan was thinking nervously, Lopet suddenly exclaimed.

"This Wei Dasan is ruthless enough, and he is really a man."

Qin Chuan looked again, only to see that Wei Rugui had already rushed to the side of the fortress of Zhisongyuan, it seemed that Wei Rugui wanted to take his two sentinel reinforcements directly from the gap to the back of the Japanese army, that is, to block the follow-up troops of the Japanese army that rushed over, and then to attack the Japanese army who rushed into the fort from behind and the Yi army.

If Wei Rugui really hit the gap, it would not only be as simple as him and Yi Jun flanking the Japanese army who rushed into the fort, but he himself would have to withstand the Japanese army's two-sided attack. With only about 200 people, he dared to do this, and this Wei Rugui was really as Loped said.

Ruthless enough!

As a dignified second-class member, the body of the young man can still take risks in person, braving the rain of bullets and sacrificing himself to kill the enemy, just this courage is admirable.

For a while, Wei Rugui's past unbearable things suddenly came to naught in Qin Chuan's heart. And the other belief in Qin Chuan's heart was also firmer, no matter what, he could no longer let Wei Rugui be wronged to death.

"Not good!" Yu Guangxi, who was on the side, also exclaimed.

Looking at Wei Rugui again, I saw that his war horse suddenly had a weak front hooves and fell to the ground, and Wei Rugui on horseback was thrown out violently, which threw Wei Rugui out more than two feet away, not only the big hat on his head flew out of the distance, but the waist knife in his hand was also gone.

It turned out that the second wave of Japanese troops who rushed over discovered Wei Rugui's intentions, and while charging quickly, they shot at Wei Rugui indiscriminately, and it should have been Wei Rugui's horse that was shot, which lifted Wei Rugui off the horse.

Wei Rugui fell, panicked and followed behind him lifeless more than a dozen pro-soldiers hurriedly ran over to surround Wei Rugui, two pro-soldiers set up Wei Rugui and ran back, the rest of the pro-soldiers blocked behind Wei Rugui, while shooting at the charging Japanese army, while covering Wei Rugui. The two sentinels that followed up also dispersed on the spot, and while covering and shooting, they followed Wei Rugui from the gate behind the Plantation Courtyard to the back of the large mound in the fort.

Because of the smoke and fire mound, Qin Chuan couldn't see the situation behind, but one thing is for sure, because Wei Rugui personally led troops to reinforce, which greatly boosted the morale of the Yi soldiers in the fort. The Yi army, who was shooting at the Japanese on both sides of the mound, was no longer satisfied with this, but hundreds of Sheng troops and Yi soldiers poured out from each side of the mound, charging at the Japanese army while constantly firing with the rifles in their hands.

The Japanese troops who rushed into the siege were only a little more than 100 people alive and still able to fight, and the Chunta-style rifles in their hands that had to be reloaded after one shot, where the opponents of the Sheng army, which were equipped with more than a dozen rounds of ammunition at a time, quickly fell in the almost unconcealed fire between the two sides.

The firing between the two sides lasted only a short time, and the Japanese soldiers threw corpses all over the ground, and even the wounded soldiers did not have time to drag them away before they turned around and fled to the gap, from where they retreated in a crawling manner.

Perhaps seeing that his commander was taking the lead, the Sheng army in the No. 2 siege fort also opened the gate and rushed out of a sentry, shooting and rushing towards the gap.

Seeing that the troops that had already rushed into the siege were beaten out by the Qing army again, the Japanese troops outside knew that there was no chance, and no longer rushed to the siege, so they lay down on the spot about a hundred meters away from the siege fort, and shot desperately at the sentry Sheng army that rushed over, covering the Japanese troops who retreated from the gap and retreated behind them.

The Sheng army that rushed over was also planning to plant the Songyuan Siege Fort, but seeing that the Japanese army had been beaten out by the Yi Army and the Sheng Army inside, they also withdrew to the No. 2 Siege Fort after a burst of gunfire.

The Sheng army and the Yi army in the courtyard of Zhisong drove the Japanese army out of the gap, and under the command of several sentry commanders, they wanted to plug the gap with stones, and immediately attracted a rain of bullets from the Japanese army 100 meters away, and tried several times and killed and wounded more than a dozen people.

Perhaps the Japanese were really unwilling to give up this opportunity, and this time the Japanese rushed over the hundreds of people who did not retreat, but began to dig trenches on the spot.

It was only then that the cadres who were watching the battle from the hill breathed a sigh of relief.

Lopet looked at the siege of the Pine Courtyard and sighed: "In the past, people said that the three emperors of Weida were very harsh, and in the event of war, they were afraid that the soldiers would not use their lives, but now it seems that the rumors are not credible. ”

Yu Guangxin sighed with emotion: "The rumors may not be false, but according to the following, although His Majesty Wei has shortcomings, he is willing to take the lead in the battle array, and this battle is to resist external humiliation, how can the soldiers not have to die." ”

"Wow!"

"This little devil seems to have been trained, and this trench is dug very quickly."

Schindlin pointed to the Japanese troops below the hill and said with some surprise.
