Chapter 473: Night Attack and Counter-Night Attack (3)

"Report, our army's attack on the mountain was blocked, Kazuo Kato, the daimyo of the Mizuguchi Domain, and the Daimyo of the Kuchiki Domain, Masayasu Kuchigi, were all shattered, and Lord Tokugawa asked for reinforcements from Lord Honda."

"Report, the firepower of the people of Shina is fierce, there are many casualties in our army, the battle situation is unfavorable, the whole army of the Takashima Domain, Lord Sakuma, is broken, and Lord Shimono asks for reinforcements!"

……

At the gate of the camp of the Japanese coalition army, Juntaro Honda stood quietly, and he was unmoved by the unfavorable battle situation on the front line as if the horses were being reported like a stream, and he did not even pay attention to the requests for reinforcements from the horses, but just stood still like a mountain, his face was extremely indifferent.

"Your Excellency, there is a cavalry army in the east that is killing in a big way, and it is less than two miles away from my camp!"

Just as Hiroharu led his troops to rush towards the camp of the Japanese Alliance, a black-clothed ninja lying not far from the camp suddenly jumped up, rushed to Honda Juntaro like a frightened rabbit, and said a word very quickly.

"Heh, is it finally here? Very good, let's get into camp! ”

Hearing the ninja's report, Honda Juntaro not only did not panic, but became excited, no side, Honda Juntaro's various deployments have only one purpose, that is, to induce the Qing army to counterattack the camp, since he has already made relevant preparations, just waiting to eat this Qing cavalry that came to counterattack.

Heh, there is no movement, these cunning slaves are actually planning to pit the master, hey, there is no door!

The land of three miles is not short, but for the cavalry running at full speed, it is just a matter of a moment, and soon, the galloping Qing cavalry has been killed to a distance of only more than 400 steps from the camp of the Japanese alliance, and at this time, there is still a dead silence in the camp of the Japanese alliance, and it seems that he is unprepared, but Hongqing does not think about it, there is no side, it is just intuition - the premise of the cavalry attacking the camp is that the enemy is unprepared, if it violates this, it is to hit the stone with eggs, such a stupid thing, Hongqing obviously will not do it.

"Grenade ready!"

Hongqing led his troops to rush all the way, but he did not go to the gate of the Japanese alliance, but led his troops to go straight to the east, and when he was less than two hundred steps away from the coalition camp, he heard Hongqing roar with full energy, and in an instant, a group of cavalry soldiers who were galloping took out the grenades hanging on the bullet bags on their waists.

"Turn left, throw!"

When they rushed to a distance of less than fifty paces from the enemy camp, but at the sound of Hongqing's loud roar, the entire cavalry immediately drew a beautiful arc and swept past the enemy camp from close range, and at the same time, all the officers and men threw out the grenades that had already drawn the fuse.

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

With the help of the momentum of the horses, the grenades of the Qing soldiers were really thrown very far, and smashed into the east side of the coalition camp like raindrops, and suddenly exploded into a cloud of fire, and countless shrapnel flew in all directions, instantly blowing up the Japanese soldiers who were ambushed in the camp and preparing to ambush the Qing army.

"Hahaha...... come again!"

Hearing the miserable howls in the camp, Hongqing couldn't help laughing, and didn't intend to just stop, but shouted and gave the order again.

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

At this time, Hongqing led his troops to the rear camp of the coalition camp, and another rain of grenades smashed over, and the ambush soldiers in the rear camp who were panicking suddenly fell into blood mold, and countless soldiers were blown to the ground by shrapnel flying in all directions on the spot, and the miserable howls resounded one after another, and half of the camp was as miserable as hell on earth.

"Yaga! All the cavalry attack, come with me, and kill all the dogs! ”

The explosions rang out one after another, first to the east, and then to the rear camp, which made Juntaro Honda anxious, although he didn't understand what was going on with these explosions, but he knew that all this must have been the ghost of the attacking cavalry, and he refused to be beaten so passively, so he turned on his horse, shouted, and led his cavalry to rush towards the camp gate like thunder.

There are not many horses in the Wa country, and the cavalry is very precious, and the coalition forces of more than a dozen daimyo add up to only four hundred horses, and Honda Juntaro has tried his best to persuade many daimyo to integrate the cavalry for the purpose of ambushing the Qing army, of course, Honda Juntaro did not plan to put the cavalry, the most important strategic force, into an ambush battle at the first time, but just wanted to pursue the remnants of the Qing army, so all the cavalry troops were arranged near the Chinese army where Honda Juntaro was located, This rush will inevitably be blocked by the chaotic front army, and the speed will not be fast.

Yo, can't you bear to go out to the cavalry? Hey, let's have fun!

After Hongqing led his troops to blow up the rear camp, he did not go around to the west, but led his troops back to the east, and once again gave the chaotic Dongying Japanese army a grenade attack, and was galloping on his horse, Leng Buding heard the sound of hooves in front of him like thunder, and he knew that this must be the Japanese cavalry dispatched, but he didn't care, and roared while running: "The whole army is here, turn to the right, retreat!" ”

"Chase, chase after me, kill the dog!"

Honda Juntaro led his troops to rush out of the camp, and was about to find the Qing cavalry for a decisive battle, but he didn't expect to hear the sound of hooves in front of him to the east, obviously the Qing cavalry was about to slip away, and Honda Juntaro, who had suffered a big loss, was unwilling to the extreme, so he raised his sword and roared, led his troops to turn to the left, and chased the rear tail of the Qing army to the east.

"Sunny Belle, the dogs are following!"

Hearing the loud sound of hooves, a cavalryman who had fallen behind rushed to Hongqing's side on horseback and said in a loud voice.

"Good time, turn left and take these bastards for a ride!"

Hongqing didn't care about the tail of the Wa cavalry chasing and killing, looked up at the sky, and saw that there was still some time before dawn, so he was not in a hurry to get rid of the Wa cavalry, so he raised his hand and shouted an order, and then saw that the Qing cavalry brigade drew a beautiful arc in the wilderness and rushed to the north.

"It's all there, turn east!"

At three o'clock, the darkest dawn had passed, the sky showed a trace of fish belly white, one in front and one behind the two cavalry armies were still running wildly in the wilderness, the distance between each other was only less than three hundred steps, and they were already dimly visible, Hongqing looked up at the sky again, and then shouted a loud shout, Le Ma turned to the east again, and led his troops to run in a straight line.

"Chase, chase me, the people can't escape, catch up and kill them!"

As the sky grew brighter, Juntaro Honda could vaguely see the scale of the Qing cavalry, and when he saw that the opponent's strength was smaller than his own, the anger in his heart was greater, and he drove his troops to the east again and again, and chased after him with all his might.

The cavalry of the Qing army is a selection of elites, all of them have been trained since childhood, equestrianism is exquisite, and the quality of the war horse under the crotch is far stronger than that of the Wa cavalry, even if it is all the way down the sea, quite strained, but in terms of horsepower, it is still stronger than the Wa war horse, in the case of both sides sprinting at full speed, the gap between each other is unmistakably shown, not long, the distance between each other has been widened to four hundred steps, even so, Honda Juntaro still refuses to give up, Regardless of the recklessness, the troops chased after him.

"Walk through the main formation!"

Hongqing led his troops to rush wildly, and in an instant he had rushed out of the place of two miles, and he could already clearly see the phalanx of his own infantry not far in front, as soon as he saw this, Hongqing did not dare to delay much, shouted, and led his troops to gallop through the gap between the three infantry phalanxes.

This group of troops had already taken advantage of the cover of the night with the cavalry last night to get out of the camp, and ambushed three miles away from their own camp, with a total of 1,000 troops, divided into three phalanxes, in a zigzag formation, waiting for the Japanese ** pawn who dared to chase and kill their own cavalry - Honda Juntaro can calculate that Hongqing will counterattack the night attack, and Hongqing can also calculate that Honda Juntaro will set up an ambush to plot the Qing army's night attack troops, with Hongqing's wisdom, it is impossible not to set a trap for Honda Juntaro because of the advantage.

"Raise your gun, aim, shoot!"

As soon as Hongqing's troops rushed through their own infantry phalanx, the Japanese cavalry who were chasing after them were immediately exposed to the Qing infantry phalanx.

"Sudden ......"

As soon as the battle order was given, more than 20 machine guns placed at the forefront of the whole army took the lead in firing, and in the roar of the guns, countless bullets were intertwined into a net of death, and in an instant they covered the unprepared Japanese cavalry.

"Keep rushing, don't mess around, rush up!"

Juntaro Honda was lucky enough to avoid the first round of fire attacks of the Qing army, but many of the cavalry behind him were thrown into chaos by the fierce firepower, seeing that the situation was not good, Juntaro Honda was even red-eyed, while roaring wildly, while desperately hitting the horse forward, trying to lead by example to attack the infantry phalanx of the Qing army.

Honda Juntaro's choice can not be said wrong, at this time the Japanese cavalry has been completely exposed to the Qing army's firepower, if you want to turn around and escape, the speed of the horse is bound to drop to a very low level, by the Qing army such a strong firepower strafing, it is really difficult to say how many can survive, besides, the Qing cavalry is not vegetarian, at this time has already completed the U-turn around the infantry phalanx, and will pounce out from the side at any time, the Japanese cavalry has lost its spirit, how can it escape the attack of the Qing cavalry, The only way to survive is to rush into the phalanx of the Qing infantry, if so, you can rely on the momentum of the horse to give the Qing infantry a ruthless blow, as for whether such a good wish can be realized, it depends on how the two sides behave with each other......
