However, Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace still thought too simply, and to carry out artillery bombardment in the city where there were buildings everywhere blocking the line of sight, someone had to help calibrate the fire in front of him, but the problem was that the rate of fire of the old field guns equipped by the wing was too slow, and after the first shot was fired, more than half a minute had passed by the time the corrected information was transmitted back to the second shot, because the enemy was not holding on to one place, and the size of the troops was small and flexible enough, the position had already been moved at this time, considering that the calibration had to be carried out many times, in fact, it was completely unoperable......

So the only way to do this was to get close to the point, but how could a bloated and sluggish artillery unit keep up with the maneuverable light infantry? This path is obviously more impassable......

Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace was also sick and rushed to the hospital, and when he heard the captain say this on the phone, he quickly realized his unwisdom, and could only give up his plan to block the marines in the city and eliminate them in a depressed manner. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

With more than 10,000 heavy troops in hand, he actually let a force of no more than a few hundred people fight in and out of the city of Tokyo, Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace has no face to continue to stay in the position of division commander, but after leaving behind his personal honor and disgrace, he quickly found that the enemy out of the city may be a good thing, when he is in the city, because the fighting is all street fighting, the strength advantage of the Guards Division can not be brought into play, and because of the rat trap and tied up, the fight is extremely aggrieved, but if the battlefield is transferred outside the city, these problems will no longer exist.

After thinking about this, Prince Nengjiu of the Northern Shirakawa Palace suddenly showed a fierce look in his eyes, and said fiercely, "Damn Chinese, don't even think about running away!" ”

And by this time, the Marines had already returned to the starting point where they began to penetrate the wall, but instead of continuing along the same path, they took out the remaining explosives and "pierced the wall" again, and it took less than ten minutes to completely break out of the crowded city!

"Haha, when you get outside the city, the devil will never want to stay behind Lao Tzu!" , Huang Haitao took a few breaths of the fresh air in the suburbs, and the pride in his chest doubled, and he laughed and made such a bold statement, which was diametrically opposed to the calculation of Prince Nengjiu of the North Shirakawa Palace!

Considering that the officers and men had been marching for a long time and had a lot of physical exertion, after leading the team to a relatively open area, Huang Haitao ordered everyone to stop and rest, and at the same time seize the time to replenish water and electrolytes. When leaving Yokosuka, the second battalion could have brought three days of dry food, but Huang Haitao took into account the hot weather, decided to bring only one day of dry food, and the saved load was replaced with salt boiled water......

However, as soon as the second battalion was delayed, the devils quickly caught up, and the speed of the cavalry was really fast, although it took a little time to reorganize, but the cavalry brigade of the Guards Division, which had lost no less than a third of its strength, was still the first among the Japanese troops to catch up.

Originally, the captain of the cavalry brigade was going to go around to the front of the second battalion to cut off its retreat and wait for the friendly troops to arrive before encircling and annihilating it, but after seeing in the telescope that the second battalion had not even built an improvised position and the personnel looked loose, he suddenly had the idea of being greedy for merit and was unwilling to wait any longer, "How can the infantry without a position to support resist the impact of the cavalry?" Chinese It's really unfortunate that there is a commander who has the courage of a horseman......"

But after seeing the devil's cavalry screaming and rushing towards him, a disdainful smile appeared on Huang Haitao's face, "There are eighteen heavy machine guns here, and you dare to rush?" ”

In order to conserve ammunition, the experienced machine gunners of the Marine Corps did not shoot immediately, although with their marksmanship, they still had an extremely high hit rate even at a distance of 600 meters, even at a high-speed target such as the charging cavalry.

It wasn't until the Japanese cavalry rushed to a distance of 400 meters that the machine gunners opened fire one after another, almost like a sudden storm, and the ghost cavalry who rushed in front immediately fell to the ground in pieces, and the devils who were a little later did not have time to dismount to evade, and the bullets from the extended shooting sent them to reunite with their comrades......

Almost in an instant, the devil's cavalry lost more than half, and the dense fire network intertwined by six heavy machine guns easily smashed the charge of hundreds of cavalry, and also swept away the pride in their hearts. Why is there such a weapon? What to do with the cavalry after that? What should I do? ”

Seeing the collapse of the Japanese army, Huang Haitao immediately ordered the infantry to rush up to clean up the remnants of the enemy, and the marines immediately rushed up with a roar to mend the knife for the devil who fell to the ground and did not know whether he was really dead or faked to die. Some devils fought back, some devils hurriedly got up and ran away, and some devils raised their hands in surrender, but no matter what choice they made, the outcome was the same. The biochemical sharpshooters mixed in with the charging infantry had no bullets, and if they didn't die, the bayonets of the others would send the devil on their last ride......

The annihilation of the cavalry brigade of the Guards Division disrupted the overall deployment of Prince Nohisa of the Kita-Shirakawa Palace, and without the cavalry to intercept the front, and relying entirely on the pursuit of infantry units, it would only be necessary to fight for the physical strength and willpower of both sides. But there is a disadvantage on the Japanese side, because the weapons are inferior to the people, if they do not have the advantage of troops, they will be killed, but as soon as the number of troops is large, the speed of the march will inevitably be affected, and if you want to catch up with the more mobile and flexible enemy, where is it so easy?

"Fortunately, there is an infantry brigade that was useless before, and their physical strength should have some advantage." , Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace thought somewhat happily. However, the greater impact is actually the attack of the Fourth Division on the Yokosuka Naval Base, as long as the encirclement is completed, Huang Haitao's battalion will not be able to go back, but in that case, all the credit will go to the Fourth Division, and he will completely become a negative example, which is difficult for Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace to accept.

"Why don't you borrow the cavalry brigade of the Fourth Division? Cavalry is not needed to attack the fortifications anyway. Although it is better to share some credit, it is better than not getting it at all, although this little merit is far from enough to offset the ......crime", but this made Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace come up with a new idea, "And the cavalry brigade of the field division is still a lot more than us, if they come, they will definitely be able to wipe out the Chinese army!"
