Chapter 131: Whose Hand Killed the Deer?
After breaking through, Guangxu still ran forward for about three or five minutes, and did not stop until there were no pursuers behind. When I looked back, I found that there were only about 100 soldiers who broke through with me. The main force of the Sixth Regiment was still firmly blocked in the position of the army in Ping'an Town, and the left and right forces had not yet been able to kill.
"Your Majesty, let's break through, let's go." A battalion commander gasped and stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Song Qing's troops in the north are storming Xi'an Town, and now that the emperor has been freed from the predicament, he only needs to go all the way to the north to join Lord Song's troops." ”
"What's up ahead?" Guangxu sat on the ground, and he didn't feel it when he was fighting, but now he broke out of the encirclement, and a sense of detachment and fierce fire struck. The arms that had been slashed in the middle of the night were already trembling and non-stop.
"A quarter of an hour ahead is Dafang Village, as long as you cross Dafang Village is Xi'an Town. Don't take Xi'an Town, take the road to bypass Xi'an Town. We are now few and will not be discovered. We will swear to protect the emperor and Lord Song to the death. ”
Guangxu raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was only half past two. It took only three and a half hours from 11 o'clock to launch the charge and rush through the Japanese army. And the army didn't send troops to pursue, and the Dafang Village in front was too quiet.
No, this was Guangxu's first reaction. Guangxu thought about it carefully, and Tianzhuangtai was besieged, because the army wanted to capture him alive. In the breakout battle just now, the Yue army also concentrated its forces to attack Guangxu's location. Why did I, an important person, break through and not even send a pursuer? There is a conspiracy.
Guangxu tore off two of the plackets tucked in his waist, holding the double knives tightly in his hands, and let people tie their hands tightly with the strips of cloth on the placket. Then he said: "Our hundred or so people have been killed, but you all look at the back." We still have many more brothers who have not been able to make it, do you think we escaped on our own** or do we go back to save the brothers who have been fighting side by side with us? ”
"Your Majesty can't." The battalion commander hurriedly stopped him: "You are the emperor, as long as you can keep the emperor safe, no matter how big the sacrifice is, it is worth it." ”
"Fuck the bullshit." Guangxu's eyes glared: "Let's see if I have any injuries on my body except for the blood of a little devil." Do you have? He spun around as he spoke.
"Nope." Someone spoke.
"Why not? Because he said that he captured me alive and forced the Qing Dynasty to surrender to them. Therefore, they did not dare to hurt me, for fear that after hurting me, the Qing Dynasty would play with them. Why don't I dare to play with my life, because they can't afford it. So just after killing all the way out, I rushed to the front, but it was the safest. I don't dare to hurt me, so do I dare to kill our brothers? ”
"Dare." Someone screamed loudly.
"Anyway, I don't dare to hurt me, so why don't I kill and rescue my brother. Do you want me to leave my brothers behind and run for my life alone? Can we do that? ”
"I can't." The shouts of more than 100 people still shook the sky.
With a "bang", Guangxu touched his two knives. Inadvertently, Guangxu glared at the battalion commander: "Go and get ready." Rush back with me. ”
Two or three minutes later, the Qing soldiers who tied the big knife to their hands like Guangxu were ready. After a short rest, everyone's physical strength also recovered slightly.
"When you rush back for a while, don't make a sound and rush with your head down. After rushing to Yue Jun's side, he yelled at Lao Tzu and caught the dog off guard. Let the brethren inside know that they have not been abandoned, and that we have come back to kill. The raised right hand waved downward, and the long knife pointed at the army: "Follow me." ”
Guangxu, who rushed to the front, had just knocked down an army, and more than 100 people shouted in unison: "Kill-"
The sound of killing, which had disappeared before, returned. The soldiers were not afraid of death and were most afraid of being abandoned, and the Qing army in the formation was suddenly high-spirited, and the brothers who broke through the siege came back to meet them. "Kill-" The Qing army broke out again.
Guangxu turned around and rushed back to meet the trapped Qing army, which deeply moved all the officers and soldiers present at that time. To be able to fight side by side with such an emperor, what is there to be afraid of. Guangxu regained the hearts of all the Qing soldiers at once. But Katsura Taro, who was ambushed in Ofang Village, was furious.
In the breakout battle, the imperial warriors did not dare to harm the Qing Emperor, and could only continue to kill and injure the guards around the Qing Emperor. However, the continuous replenishment of Qing soldiers made the Qing Emperor always full of people, and it was impossible to capture the Qing Emperor on the battlefield. Therefore, his plan was to attack from both sides behind Guangxu and cut off the strength of the Qing army. Guangxu is in front of him, but he no longer blocks it, and lets Guangxu break through. Katsura Taro believes that once the emperor who has been trapped for a long time succeeds in breaking through, he will definitely have the feeling of escaping, and will go all the way north to try to join the Qing army in the north. In this way, as long as a large group of men and horses are ambushed on the only way to Dafang Village and annihilate these hundred or so Qing soldiers, the Qing emperor can only be captured. But who would have thought that the emperor of a big country would turn around and rush back into the formation like a big-headed soldier. This frustrates Katsura Taro's ambush plan.
"You're an emperor, not a soldier." Katsura Taro roared. The emperor became a big soldier, which made him embarrassed.
Since the ambush can't be successful, then knock hard. Katsura Taro didn't care about any tactics, and ordered the whole army to strangle the Qing army to the death, and be sure to capture the Qing emperor alive.
"Your Majesty, the army is fully **, and the front cannot be attacked." Yongshan pulled back Guangxu, who was fighting on the front line: "The emperor retreats." If they don't retreat, the army will cut off the back road, and I'm afraid they won't be able to retreat. ”
"Damn, your head of the regiment, I am the head of the regiment. Lao Tzu can't command troops to fight, and now Lao Tzu is just a soldier. You are the one who commands the troops, and you can do whatever you say. Guangxu said angrily.
This soldier is really good. Yongshan ordered: "Retreat, the front team becomes the back team, and the back team becomes the front team." Attack in the direction of Grangeda. ”
It is said that the encirclement of the rear road was not sealed, because the sixth regiment broke through to cover the main force, and Yongshan always kept two companies to support the rear road. Since he wanted to ** Tianzhuangtai, Guangxu transferred from the northern line to the southern line to fight. Under the leadership of Guangxu, the sixth regiment rushed back to the Tianzhuang platform. But he rushed headlong into the forward troops of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army.
After the Qing army began to break through, the Fifth Division on the east bank of the Liao River also began to attack, but the Qing army's blocking firepower was much weaker. After the Qing army broke through, those who remained were wounded soldiers who could not walk. Only the wounded soldiers with machine guns and rifles did not have the strength to push the army back down the river. Once the blocking position is occupied, the wounded soldiers, who can only be carried by people, automatically ignite the explosives bag and die with the enemy. Unable to recapture the position, he used this kind of fighting style to drag down the Fifth Division. As soon as the forward of the Fifth Division entered the town, he ran headlong into the remnants of the Sixth Regiment of the Qing Army who had returned to Tianzhuangtai.
The battle unfolded again in the Grange platform, and the sound of explosions from time to time was the swan song of the wounded Qing soldiers lighting explosives bags and dying together with the army. At this time, Guangxu had already concentrated a company's troops, which Yongshan had put together to closely follow the emperor to protect the emperor. But as soon as Guangxu rushed into the town, he did not entangle with the Fifth Division. rushed straight over and rushed into the headquarters of the Qing army in Tianzhuangtai.
"Don't shoot, don't shoot. I'm back. Guangxu ran all the way to the front, and said with a smile on his face to the wounded man who was guarding the gate with a machine gun. Oh, what a luxury, take the shells in front of the line as a machine gun mount.
In fact, there is no way, the arms gathered in Tianzhuangtai were originally prepared for the three armies of the Liaohe River. After being suddenly surrounded by the Yue army, there was a significant increase in munitions, and the Second Division fought extravagantly for seven days, and it was precisely this extravagant fighting style that allowed more than 5,000 people of the Second Division to withstand the repeated attacks of more than 20,000 people of the Yue Army. But there are still a lot left, and all the ones that can't be taken away are concentrated here, and they all have to be destroyed anyway, so they are simply placed at the front. Guarding the gate with machine guns, the army could not tell which shell to hit when they opened their guns, and if they didn't shoot, they didn't want to rush through the four heavy machine guns and didn't have a chance to kill a thousand people. Even if they can rush through, there will be a wounded person holding an explosive bag in each of the warehouses behind, as long as one of them can detonate. I don't want to take any of this ammunition.
Now the 6th Regiment cannot rush out, so it can only turn back and join the 7th Regiment, so that the ammunition may not be enough. So Guangxu rushed back to the headquarters as soon as possible to get more ammunition. The wounded soldier guarding the door saw that the emperor ran back again, and said in a hurry: "Your Majesty, how can you come back?" ”
"This ......" Guangxu was speechless when asked: "This-come back to see you." Ha ha. ”
"There's no way, I can't rush out." Guangxu explained: "We will immediately go south to join the 7th Regiment. Come over and get some ammo. In the end, I have to leave you alone. ”
"It's okay, Your Majesty. Here's what we're breaking. After speaking, the wounded soldier guarding the door shouted: "Listen to the guys in the back, the emperor will come back to get ammunition." Be damn careful, don't hurt the emperor. ”
Guangxu commanded the troops to get the ammunition: "Take more bullets." One box per person. Be fast. ”
"Your Majesty. The 7th Regiment and 6th Company were ordered to receive the emperor. "When the 7th Regiment learned that the emperor and the 6th Regiment had returned to Tianzhuangtai, they immediately sent a company to meet them.
"Don't talk nonsense, take things." Guangxu pointed to the wire ring in the corner of the wall and said, "Take all those wires away." ”
The forward squad of the Fifth Division was finally annihilated in Tianzhuangtai Town, and although most of the Fifth Division landed on the west bank of the Liao River, including the Nozu Road that had just crossed the bridge, they were crushed on the river beach by the Sixth Regiment of the Qing Army that had just crossed the bridge. It was not until the 3rd Division from the north came to attack that the Qing army abandoned its position and finally entered Tianzhuangtai.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, we have surrounded the arsenal of the Qing army in the Tianzhuang Terrace. It's just that the arsenal is well defended, and all three charges are repulsed. Konosuke Nohara, who had been promoted to division staff officer, said in frustration: "The Qing army used artillery shells as cover, and our army did not dare to shoot with Ben. ”
Nozu Michikan looked at the four machine guns outside the gate, the ten machine guns on the roof, and the corpses of the imperial warriors that surrounded the courtyard, and shook his head: "Surround it first, and then discuss it when General Oyama Yan arrives." After speaking, he asked about the battle.
Nozu Michikan learned that the Qing army was constantly retreating south, and that the 6th and 7th regiments of the Qing army had converged. Now that the battle has been fought, the possibility of encircling and annihilating a Qing army has been lost. Nozu Michikan deeply sighed that the impact of the Qing Emperor's personal expedition far exceeded the estimation of the base camp and the Liaohe army headquarters. Unexpectedly, the Qing Emperor would fight on the front line like an ordinary soldier.
"The broken army turned out to be the emperor of the Qing State again." Regarding the behavior of the Qing Emperor everywhere for the troops to be cut off, Nozu Michikan felt helpless: "You are an emperor, not a soldier." ”
"Nozu-kun, we're meeting again." Guangxu, who walked at the back of the troops, looked at Nozu Daoguan with a smile: "There is no camera this time." ”
The sky had already lit up, but Guangxu's ridiculous tone really made Nozu Michikan very uncomfortable. If you are not the emperor of the Qing Kingdom, if it were not for the pressure from Western countries, it will only take a bullet to solve you. But this is the truth, under the pressure of all sides, none of the imperial warriors dared to make a move against the Qing emperor.
"Your Majesty, the main force of the Second Division of your country has successfully broken through, and there are only less than 2,000 of you in the encirclement of the Emperor Ben's ** team. At this moment, there are 20,000 people in the Imperial Army. Does Your Majesty think that you can resist with 2,000 men? Nozu Michikan also said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, surrender." We will give you the treatment that an emperor deserves. ”
"Blow, blow, blow." Guangxu despised and said: "Your troops surrounding Tianzhuangtai are full of 20,000 people. In the past seven days, our army has fired a million rounds of ammunition and several thousand shells. Could it be that all the pigs and dogs are hit? I have calculated your strength, and now even if you count all the wounded, it will be 15,000 men. And your available combat strength is just over 10,000. ”
"Even if it's 10,000 people, that's five times as many as you. Could it be that His Majesty's 2,000 remnants of soldiers can stop it? ”
"Please, we're on the defensive, the defender who doesn't attack. With the geographical advantage, 10,000 people may not be able to stop it, but it is still no problem to withstand 35,000 of you. But do you dare to throw all 10,000 men into the attack? Could it be that the Qing army behind you is all fake? Please think about it, I am the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, how dare the Qing army not save me. On the one hand, you have to attack my defensive line, and you have to constantly deal with the Qing army behind. Add in the reserves that remain, and it would be nice if you could throw in 4,000 men to attack at a time. The defender knows how to defend it when he hits two people. ”
"Isn't Your Majesty afraid of us launching a strong attack?"
"I'm afraid of a fart. I still have 2,000 people here, and when you kill all these 2,000 people and rush to me, a day will be indispensable. And the Qing army behind you can mobilize at least 30,000 people to attack. Do you really let the other Qing troops follow you and beat your chrysanthemums? Or do you think that the 30,000 Qing army is not only your more than 10,000 things in half a day? ”
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by the Storm Chrysanthemum?" A Qing soldier asked puzzled.
Guangxu stabbed the middle of this Qing soldier's ** with his middle finger: "This is called a violent chrysanthemum." At this time, the Qing soldiers burst into laughter.
At this time, Zi Qingbing was even more puzzled: "In this case, why do you still use chrysanthemums as a symbol." Is it inherently violent to people? ”
"Maybe. Who knows. The next time you go to Tokyo to catch the emperor yourself, you will find out. Guangxu's words once again made the Qing army position laugh.
Lost again, again to the Qing Emperor. It's like an emperor, talking like a hooligan on the side of the road. Nozu Michikani didn't want to say more: "Your Majesty, facts speak louder than eloquence. See you on the battlefield. ”
Guangxu also lowered his face: "Then let's see who killed the deer in the end." Guangxu waved his hand: "Let's go." (To be continued.) )
