Chapter 128: Fierce Battle
In the minds of the people of the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese are short in stature, but they are very fierce and brave, like poisonous snakes, and they can bite people again when they die. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Against the Japanese people, the Ming soldiers were often outnumbered by the crowd, and the casualties were still very large, so although there were only more than 100 Japanese people this time, the troops dispatched by Xihua County reached as many as seven or eight hundred.
Zhuo Shijie stood on a hill not far from the city, observing the outside of the East City Gate of Xihua County with a telescope.
"This old Xie, after putting on the armor, is really majestic enough."
Xie Guofang did not refuse to defend behind closed doors, but chose to go out of the city to face the battle, he rode on a war horse, carried a long knife, and under the protection of his own soldiers, he rode his horse and whipped him, which was very powerful.
Liu Lao Liu sat on a big rock, looked at the officers and soldiers lined up, and asked, "Commander, do you think Lao Xie has a big chance of winning this battle?" ”
"The Japanese were originally three teams of people, and now there is only this team left, and they are just lucky, if there are not many officers and soldiers in the city, they can also pick a leak, now it seems that I am afraid that their calculation is wrong."
Sure enough, this group of would-be robbers thought that the defenders of Xihua County must be defending behind closed doors, but when they were about to approach the county seat, they found that the officers and soldiers of the brigade were rushing towards them with great momentum, and they were immediately surprised.
"Not good! They were prepared! ”
"How many soldiers and horses have they dispatched! How many people! ”
"Mom! It's got to be thousands, right? ”
Since the Warring States Period, the so-called wars of the Japanese people have actually been like villagers fighting in the eyes of the Ming people.
"Report! Lord! The enemy army has arrived, and our army can't resist it, so run away, my lord! ”
In fact, the army they are talking about may only be a few dozen people.
The territory of the Japanese country is small, but there are many small countries, and the two countries are at war, and they can mobilize three or five hundred people, which is already very amazing.
Compared with the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops at every turn, the war of the Japanese people is too small.
When this group of would-be robbers saw a black and oppressive army appear in the dust and wind ahead, they were suddenly shocked, and they couldn't even estimate the approximate number.
However, the Japanese were indeed a little wicked, and although they were frightened, they did not flee without a fight.
"Come on! The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are all waste! Let's just think of them as turnips! ”
"Rush! Kill! ”
The gang raised the long knife in his hand and greeted him.
"Bang ......"
The officers and soldiers did not engage them directly, and the gunners and archers, under the cover of the shield men, launched the first wave of attacks.
There was a dense burst of gunfire, and a rain of arrows flew in, and more than 20 Japanese people who were running at the forefront were shot and fell to the ground.
"Eight squares! There are so many of them, they still have to fire guns and arrows! It's so damning! ”
"These Ming officers and soldiers, so many people don't dare to fight us head-on, what a coward!"
Zhuo Shijie and the others standing on the hill could only hear a chaotic sound in front of the two armies, shouting and scolding, which became meaningless noise when mixed together.
Caterina, who was standing beside Zhuo Shijie, could clearly hear what each of them was saying.
She quietly translated a few words from a few of them to Zhuo Shijie.
Zhuo Shijie smiled after hearing this: "The Japanese people are not only fierce and cunning, they also have a solid eye." ”
For this battle, he felt that there should be no suspense.
When the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty advanced, in the order of the queue, there were obvious traces of formation, some in groups of three, some in groups of five, covering and cooperating with each other, without any confusion.
On the other hand, the Japanese people relied on personal force to fight, and when they rushed forward, they were like a swarm of bees, without the slightest rule.
"Look! It's time to fight! They fought! Liu Lao Liu saw that the two sides collided in one place, and suddenly came to his senses, stood up, and looked lively.
Zhuo Shijie had no interest in this.
This way of fighting is too old and backward to be taken seriously, and no useful experience can be drawn from it.
Liu Lao Liu watched it with relish, he watched it and commented at the same time.
"Look! These widows really don't say anything! Such a little bit of people are still fighting well, and at the moment, it seems that they haven't shown the slightest defeat. ”
Zhuo Shijie shook his head and said: "It's all about personal blood and bravery, and it won't last long!" ”
Sure enough, at the beginning, the Japanese performed well, and with a single face, the Ming officers and soldiers suffered a big loss, and more than a dozen people were cut down on the spot.
But when the Ming officers and soldiers stabilized their positions, the Japanese began to tie their hands and feet, and it was difficult to advance an inch.
The officers and men formed horns for each other in groups, and the swordsmen, shields, and spearmen formed a series of battle formations, which were interlocking with each other, like a chain, and put them on the heads of the Japanese people.
These widows were involuntarily slowly separated by the officers and soldiers, and each of them felt that they were fighting alone, without the cover of their companions.
"The combat strength of these Japanese people is okay, it's all like this, and they haven't been defeated yet, it's really not easy!" Liu Lao Liu also saw the doorway.
Zhuo Shijie smiled: "They don't stop there, I think, they will soon be unable to hold on." ”
He asked again, "Are our people all arranged?" ”
"Commander, don't worry, when the Japanese are defeated, our people will immediately follow! None of these widows want to run! Liu Laoliu promised.
At this time, the stalemate between the two sides on the battlefield finally changed.
One by one, the Japanese seem to be trapped in a quagmire, and no matter how much they struggle, they can't get out.
"Not good! These officers and soldiers are too evil! Can't beat it! ”
"Retreat! Retreat now! ”
As soon as they shouted to retreat, these widows turned around and ran away.
But now that they want to run, it is already a little late, and the officers and soldiers do not know when, and they have already surrounded them in a proper situation.
There are two kinds of people who are the most ruthless, one is to take advantage of the advantage, and when they bully the weak, they are the most ruthless; The other, like now, is the time to run for your life.
After discovering that they were besieged, the remaining forty or fifty widows, all of whom were red-eyed, like wolves that had been hungry for half a month, wanted to bite when they saw anyone.
These officers and men did not expect that when these Japanese people were fighting trapped beasts, their combat effectiveness would suddenly multiply, and they were all taken aback, and for a while, their momentum was suppressed.
Taking advantage of the cowardice of the officers and soldiers, more than 20 Japanese soldiers broke out of the encirclement and ran to the mountains and forests outside the city.
"Chase! Don't let one go! After Xie Guofang finished speaking, he caught up with a Japanese man, and with a swing of his knife, he cut off the head of the Japanese man.
When does a person run the fastest?
Of course, when you run for your life, when you are chased by someone with a gun behind your buttocks, you run the fastest.
The Japanese fled in all directions, each with a group of officers and soldiers chasing after them.
Caterina looked at the fleeing widows from afar and said, "There are twenty-three widows who have escaped, six of them are physically exhausted, and they may not be able to escape far before they are caught, and of the remaining seventeen, maybe half will escape into the mountains and forests."
