Nogi Noshinori Nakasa listened to the singing of these Russian women and Polish women, and somehow, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became heavier and heavier.

Just last night, information came that a large number of Satsuma troops, totaling about 30,000 men (exaggerated), with artillery units, rushed out of Kumamoto Castle and launched an attack on the Japanese government forces in the northern part of the castle.

Nogi Noshinori had not been there yet, but he had received news that a large number of armed Satsuma troops had appeared on the road.

The entire 2nd Einsatzgruppen Brigade was alerted during the night. In the dense pre-dawn darkness, which was only occasionally pierced by light, the soldiers scrambled and rushed south to cut off the road from Kumamoto to the north.

News continued to come from the headquarters, and more and more details were coming about the Satsuma who had broken through the siege, and it was said that they marched in dense columns, avoiding the settlements as much as possible.

Nogi woke up the soldiers who were sleeping in the opposite house. They quickly jumped to their feet and took their rifles and bullets.

Nogi Noshinori commanded the unit that guarded General Oyama Yan's headquarters, and the medical battalion that the Russians had helped set up was also here, and although it was far from the main battlefield and much safer than the front line, it still made him feel a great responsibility.

The sound of artillery just now caught his attention, and he planned to take a troop to check it out.

What he was most worried about now was not the large number of Satsuma people, but the small infiltration force.

Just as the troops were assembled, the sound of the artillery suddenly stopped, and he hesitated, so he sent a soldier to ride a horse and go to ask General Dashanyan for instructions, but it was not long. The soldier returned. Brought the password of General Oyama Iwa.

The general ordered: "Don't bother. The security of the headquarters and the medical battalion is fully guaranteed. ”

Nogi had no choice but to obey the order and inspect the defenses.

The weather was warm, and the white clouds slowly floated in the clear blue sky. The shadows of the trees moved slowly, and everything seemed so quiet and peaceful. But just then, there was a burst of rifle fire from the forest, and Nogi saw a government soldier reappear. He walked fast, almost running. He ran up to Nogi Noshinori and said something quickly. But his words were incoherent, and from all his words, Nogi Noshinori understood only three words: "...... I managed to escape with my life......"

Nogi immediately understood that not far from the edge of the forest, a group of enemy troops should have just arrived.

The gunshots only rang out for a moment and then disappeared again, and the surroundings became quiet again, except for the wind blowing the leaves.

The soldiers who were stationed here walked towards Nogi Noshinori. They walked past him, saluted as they went, and then walked in the direction of the farm. Nogi Noshinori took three steps forward. He saw a valley in front of him, and a log cabin far behind it. Go without saying. The enemy is in this valley - the keen hearing cultivated on the battlefield will not be deceived.

But no one came out of there, and Nogi decided to send someone to ask for the enemy, but at this moment, another government soldier stood up from the valley facing him and ran towards him, and almost at the same time a shot rang out, and the government soldier immediately fell. Then there was a "bang" of a short burst of rifle fire.

Nogi took a step back in astonishment, and at the last moment, he noticed that the green leaves had fallen from the low-hanging branches, and his eyes went black, and he fell to the grass.

The short battle of Hur is here and there is happening there. The ranks of the Satsuma Army's Odd Soldiers, who had destroyed the enemy, became sparse and scattered, but they still made their way through the forests and marshes and stubbornly continued their advance.

The team of Hayashi Yat-sei, Junichi Takagi and Takeshi Nogami never encountered strong resistance along the way. They easily blew up two Japanese government artillery. But in order not to expose their targets, they had to break into small groups and sneak through lowlands, valleys and moorlands to the enemy's headquarters.

After a short journey, they came into contact with a small unit of Japanese government troops, which immediately panicked when they saw the sudden appearance of the Satsuma, and many of them fled. However, they soon realized that there were only about twenty Satsuma people on the other side, and that they were nearly 300 of them, so the officer leading the group prevented his men from escaping, and they pounced on the strange soldiers. But they didn't expect that these Satsuma people were as terrible as death, and after a fierce battle, the government army was crushed and fled. Junichi Takagi rushed forward and grabbed a government officer with a head wound with the palm of his hand. Even though the battle had stopped, Junichi Takagi still restrained the dead enemy and punched him in the face with his reddened fists, and he vented his anger in this way, and two more members of the Odd Soldier had died in the battle just now.

Lin Yiqing looked at the tragic scene after the battle, and he was still very satisfied with the bravery and toughness shown by his subordinates.

After crossing the main road, they passed through the groves and valleys. The farther they go, the braver the players become. Junichi Takagi has always been ahead of the others, ready to destroy the enemy when he encounters it.

Soon, they came to the side of a large road. Everyone was exhausted, but fear and the desire to move forward supported them. They crossed a river. Soaking wet and hungry, I found a larger village, and it was quiet in the village. But when they saw a group of Japanese government soldiers, they immediately attacked.

Lin Yiqing recognized at a glance who the officer who led the team was, and a thought suddenly occurred in his heart, he was about to take this person alive by himself, Takagi Junichi's gun had already gone off, and he saw the other party fall to the ground.

Although the commander was knocked down, the Japanese soldiers did not retreat, but rushed forward with a scream and shooting, and the odd soldiers met them, although they were still outnumbered, but no one was afraid, but threw themselves into the battle with a hundred times the courage.

Because, Lin Yiqing is also fighting with them.

Lin Yiqing's rifle and pistol were all out of ammunition, he pulled out his combat knife and katana, and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and soon, more and more people joined in hand-to-hand combat.

The rapidly advancing government soldiers did not notice their feet. Their feet are on slightly wet grass. Some hair slippery. A soldier just rushed in front of Lin Yiqing. He raised his katana to slash, but he fell to the ground with a stumble.

He ran very fast, but his movements were not flexible, he moved his arms on the ground to try to support his body, but like a newborn child, he always lost his center of gravity, failed to stand up several times, and finally fell to the ground.

At this time, Nogi Noshinori, who rushed to his side, found out. The top of his head had already been cut off by Lin Yiqing.

He had just been shot in the chest and fainted, but the cold wind quickly woke him up, and he heard the shouts around him, so he sat up.

He looked at his chest, and the bullet from the Satsuma had hit his pocket watch, which was twisted and shattered, but his life was saved, and the fatal bullet did not penetrate his heart. It only left a large patch of black blue on his chest.

Nogi Noshinori's gun didn't know where it went, and he saw the two sides engage in hand-to-hand combat. Instead of looking for a gun, he pulled out his family heirloom samurai sword.

But before he could get closer, he saw that three government soldiers who were born as samurai in the East China Sea seemed to be cut off from their waists in an instant!

The government soldiers who rushed to the front and Nogi Noshinori were stunned, and Nogi Noshinori immediately recognized who the person in front of him was.

That's Lin Yiqing!

They snapped back to their senses, threw away their katanas in unison, turned around and ran wildly. The desire to survive supported Nogi Noshinori, and he heard footsteps behind him, and the terrible man had already chased after him, and was chasing him at an extremely fast speed. He doesn't look back, just runs, runs, runs like crazy! It was as if a split second of hesitation would kill him under the knife of the man behind him.

He felt the blood pour all over his legs, and his mind went blank. He heard the bells of the battalions ringing incessantly, the silent camps were ablaze, and the whole village was waking up, not knowing where the enemy had come and when he had taken control. There was only one road in front of him, and behind him was the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, and everything around him was like a huge black wall that was about to collapse on him, and he wanted to open his mouth to shout, but he couldn't make a sound.

At this time, his ears were surprisingly sharp, and Nogi Noshinori heard the sound of low, slow breathing behind him, and also smelled the disgusting smell of blood on the enemy's body. The enemy was almost behind him, and Nogi heard the sharp wind above him, and he knew it was a sword raised.

"I'm going to die." Nogi Noshinori thought to himself.

He suddenly stopped and turned around! He was left with no weapons and had no chance of resisting at all, but he wanted to see this terrible man with his own eyes.

He met a pair of dark eyes, and the samurai sword was whizzing down on top of his head. The enemy's gray face was expressionless, his face was full of blood, and although he was very handsome, he looked extremely pale, without a trace of blood, like a zombie emerging from the ground. Nogi Noshinori had never seen such a hideous and terrifying face, and he didn't look like a living person at all.

A black shadow brushed past Nogi Noshinori, and the samurai long sword fell to the ground, narrowly missing half a foot before Nogi Noshinori missed. The black shadow shot like an arrow, but it shot at Lin Yiqing's chest with a force far greater than that of an arrow.

It was a spear for the Cossack cavalry.

Nogi Noshinori thought that the spear could stab Lin Yiqing, and then pushed him back and nailed him to the ground. But instead of being hit, he dodged away like a ghost, and Nogi saw only another flash of the sword, and a government soldier close to him was beheaded.

Cold sweat soaked Nogi Noshinori's undershirt, and when he turned his head, he saw a black war horse galloping like a wind. The Cossack spear just now was thrown by a man on horseback.

"Akiyama Shaosa!" Nogi Noshinori recognized the visitor.

Akiyama Kawahei Shaozo is an officer under him, a samurai from Matsuyama, he served in the cavalry team, because he has a soft spot for the combat skills of the Russian Cossack cavalry, just now he attacked Lin Yiqing with a spear, saving Nogi Noshinori's life.

Akiyama Kawahei stopped the galloping war horse, and instead of answering Nogi Noshinori, he pulled out the samurai long sword at his waist. He jumped on the horse's back, jumped up towards Lin Yiqing, raised his knife with both hands, and slashed straight at Lin Yiqing.

Seeing Akiyama Kawapei display such a clever sword technique, Nogi Noshinori couldn't help but admire in his heart, completely forgetting that he was on the battlefield.

In his opinion, Lin Yiqing couldn't stop this extremely domineering knife at all.

But what happened next shocked Nogi Noshinori. Lin Yiqing didn't dodge at all. It's the same leap. Crash straight into Akiyama River.

The katana in Lin Yiqing's hand instantly turned into a backhand grip, and it stabbed straight into Akiyama Kawapei's left chest!

The figures of the two fell to the ground, and Nogi Noshinori saw Lin Yiqing smile fiercely, and then twisted the handle of the knife. Nogi Noshinori knew that such a knife would inevitably crush Akiyama Kawapei's heart. Matsuyama's struggle finally came to an end, and his hands and feet went limp.

Several more horses galloped in, all elite government cavalry, led by a Russian Cossack officer. He spun around the warhorse, and the warhorse neighed. His eyes were blood-red, and he was panting like a cow. Lin Yiqing just calmly wiped the slight sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and also gasped lowly, and withdrew his katana.

Over there, more than a dozen black shadows were rushing and approaching, and they had no formation at all, like a group of bloodthirsty wolves chasing a flock of sheep. Nogi Noshinori saw the abnormality in their running movements, and each of them ran like Lin Yiqing, incredibly fast, with vigorous and coordinated movements.

The Russians roared. Together with the Japanese cavalry, they launched a charge against Lin Yiqing.

Once again, a terrible scene was played. Nogi Noshinori couldn't see what was happening, his eyes were completely dazzled by the light of the sword, his ears were full of screams and roars, he didn't dare to look anymore, he didn't dare to listen anymore, he completely lost his fighting spirit, he only knew to turn around and run without his life.
