Chapter Ninety-Six: Night Attack (I)

On October 3, 1888, Li Zhongju led the Zhenwu army to the border of Hong Kong, Li Zhongju ordered the army to rest in place, and then Li Zhongju began to reconnoiter the enemy using the warship system. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xiaomei took the initiative to take on the task of detecting the enemy's situation this time, after all, Xiaomei's understanding of the warship system is far better than Li Zhongju.

Xiaomei is very proficient in using the detection system of the battleship system to get the enemy's information, and then tell Li Zhongju useful information, so that Li Zhongju will be much easier.

Li Zhongju carefully analyzed every useful information given by Xiaomei, and Li Zhongju found that the army commanded by the Governor's Office in Hong Kong was definitely not as simple as the six-nation alliance army encountered in Wuyi Mountain last time, this is a terrible army.

At the same time, the Governor of Hong Kong, Green, also received news that Li Zhongju, the king of Zhennan, had sent troops and had come to the border of Hong Kong. ”

Green said to the dozen generals below, "Everyone, don't panic, our British Empire is the first in the world, are we still afraid of a backward agricultural country." You think about these decades, that time it wasn't our china people who spanked their butts and urinated, and threw away their armor. ”

Everyone nodded, and at the same time, everyone was confident, the shadow in their hearts mainly came from the battle of Wuyi Mountain, but they thought about it carefully, and it all came down to the luck of the Daochina people and Thomson's incompetence.

Green ordered, "Now except for the necessary soldiers on guard, all the troops will go to the border at once, and we will confront the king of Zhennan at the border this time, and even fight, and we must let the people of China know the military strength of our British Empire." ”

All the people shouted, "Yes, Lord Governor." "They are very convinced of the Governor, and they believe that the Governor will do everything well.

Then the generals withdrew from the governor's palace, immediately returned to their camps, and began to march towards the north.

The citizens of Hong Kong already knew that the king of Zhennan had called, but they couldn't help the king of Zhennan, they could only silently cheer for the Zhenwu army in their hearts, looking forward to the king of Zhennan defeating the foreign devils.

The citizens of Hong Kong all hoped that the king of Zhennan would win and save them from the sea of suffering.

On October 4, Green led an army of 10,000 to the border of Hong Kong, ten miles away from Li Zhongju's army, and began to confront each other, and neither side seemed to make any next move.

In fact, both sides are brewing their own plans, and it depends on whose plan is more perfect, only in this way can they defeat the other side and truly obtain the treasure land of Hong Kong.

Li Zhongju summoned all the officers above the battalion commander to the big tent of the Chinese army to discuss matters, Li Zhongju looked at more than a dozen people sitting in the big tent, they all looked more excited, and smiled faintly, "Everyone, we have come to Hong Kong yesterday, why haven't we acted yet, is it because we don't know how to act?" The answer is definitely no, we need a better way to minimize casualties, and our soldiers are too precious to be hurt. ”

Everyone nodded gratefully, and their loyalty to Li Zhongju in their hearts had improved a little, after all, everyone hoped that their supreme commander would be a commander who cherished the lives of his soldiers.

Li Zhongju continued, "Now, the foreign devils have come here, and it is only ten miles away from the garrison of our army. What does this mean, I believe everyone knows that our army can already attack the enemy with artillery, and of course the enemy can also attack our army. Therefore, everyone must be careful, and it is better to build simple fortifications so as not to give the enemy a chance to take advantage of them. ”

"Yes, Commander." The earth-shattering shouts resounded in the sky.

Li Zhongju nodded, "After everyone returns to the camp, you must pay attention to the orders of your superiors, we will have an action tonight, and this king will inform you when the time comes." ”

Then Li Zhongju said some specific matters, and everyone remembered them all.

Li Zhongju looked up at the south, hoping that he could achieve unexpected gains tonight, otherwise this war might be fought for a while.

Green looked at the Zhenwu Army camp with a telescope at this time, but he was extremely shocked, the layout of this camp was too tight, and it was by no means something that ordinary people could do, Green showed a solemn expression.

Green was shocked to find that the other party's camp tent had almost no shortcomings, could it be that the other party's commander was much stronger than his own, Green shook his head.

When night fell, the moon tonight was like a shy girl, showing only a small half of her face, and it was not very dark.

Li Zhongju ordered all the troops to advance lightly, and the troops only needed to carry guns and grenades, and the rest did not need to be brought, and only a hundred people were left in the large camp to guard.

The grenade is a very convenient weapon, which was created by Li Zhongju in combination with the experience of later generations and using the battleship system, of course, the grenade shells held by the soldiers now are all made by the Guangzhou Arsenal.

Grenade bullets began to be used in Europe as early as the seventeenth century, but now, due to the improvement of guns, countries have gradually abandoned grenade bullets, but how could Li Zhongju, who is familiar with historical development, not know the role of grenade bullets.

During the last Wuyishan War, the grenade bomb was still being manufactured in the Guangzhou Arsenal and was not put to use, but this time the grenade bomb is destined to become famous in one fell swoop, so that all countries in the world can see the power and role of the grenade bomb.

The army groped their way forward in the night, although the speed was not fast, but for a distance of ten miles, it was nothing, as long as they could successfully raid the enemy camp, everything was worth it, and the soldiers would not feel tired at all at such a speed.

Finally, the Zhenwu army approached the enemy camp, less than two hundred meters away from the enemy camp to be exact. It was almost early in the morning.

According to the original plan, the Zhenwu army was divided into 15 teams with more than 10,000 people, except for Li Zhongju with 3,000 people from the independent regiment, the 1st Brigade and the 101st Regiment all had 500 people as a team, ready to raid the enemy camp.

Li Zhongju and Zhou Tiezhu led an army of 3,000 and stood still, and according to the plan, they had to wait another ten minutes at this time before they could attack.

Tan Sitong personally led the soldiers of the 500th 101st Regiment to move towards the east, this was the first time Tan Sitong fought against foreign devils, so Tan Sitong was careful with one hundred and twenty people, and did not dare to have a trace of carelessness.

Naruto Song was the same, leading five hundred of the most elite soldiers of the First Brigade to the west, and they met up to attack together.

All the soldiers of the Zhenwu army were in high spirits and full of confidence in victory, and they believed that this time they would be able to successfully attack the enemy camp.

Li Zhongju has turned on the battleship system with all his strength to monitor the important situation of the enemy camp, and Xiaomei is also extremely careful and careful, even if it is not normal at all, Xiaomei will report to Li Zhongju.

Time was passing fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was less than ten seconds until ten minutes.
