Chapter 533: Urban Guerrilla Warfare (I)
"Invulnerability, invulnerability, invulnerability......"
In the urban area of Tianjin, countless Boxers also shouted that they were invulnerable, and they were forced to rush in the direction of the foreigners. And they shouted that they were invulnerable, just to cheer themselves up, and they knew that they were not invulnerable. Behind the Boxers, there were many Manchu officers and soldiers who supervised them and forced them to fight the foreigners. Because these Manchu soldiers and officers hated these Boxers very much, these Boxers not only burned, killed and looted everywhere, but also relied on the tiger skin of the Queen Mother to make the capital a mess, and there was no peace everywhere.
It's not that the Manchu officials and the army don't want to take care of it, but if they take care of these Boxer affairs, then what awaits them is the empress dowager's will to strictly investigate and even execute. No one dares to care about these Boxers, and the people of the capital are also miserable. And now, these Boxers are finally going to be punished, and when the foreigners come, they are going to charge on the front line. And the Empress Dowager issued a decree requiring these Boxers to resist the invaders, so that those Manchu officers and soldiers also immediately forced these Boxers to resist the armies of various countries.
Of course, those Boxers didn't do it, but they were killed a lot by Manchu soldiers as a prestige. As for what the Queen Mother they went to, the Queen Mother's people ignored them at this time. Because the reason why the Empress Dowager Cixi allowed them to be so presumptuous was to hope that they would be able to fight. If the Empress Dowager Cixi wants to use them now, then they will naturally have to find a way to resist foreign enemies. If they enjoyed the benefits given to them by the Empress Dowager Cixi, but did not think about how to resist foreign enemies, then what else did the Empress Dowager have to take care of them?
And in this case, the Boxers were forced by various armies to resist the invaders. As for the Empress Dowager Cixi, they will not help them anymore, and they all begin to despair. I had to go forward and resist. And they know that they are not invulnerable, but they have to use their flesh and blood to meet the foreigners' firearms, which must make them very painful. However, who made them do so many bad things, so their retribution will come, let them enjoy this feeling of being hit by the enemy.
"General Seymour. There is a large group of gods and sticks shouting invulnerability in front of us, what are we going to do? Immediately, a staff officer asked Seymour, commander of the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Seymour immediately asked, "Who's going to clean them up?" ”
"We Americans are willing to clean them up, and these unruly guys still want to go against us? I don't believe it, we Americans can't clean them up! Lieutenant General Jared said.
"Since the Americans are so willing, and they deal with these Boxers, there is no need for our soldiers from the Great Japanese Empire to go out and kill chickens with knives!" Genjiro Akashi said.
And the American Lieutenant General Jared heard the English phrase Akashi Motojiro, and at first he still didn't know what the phrase "kill chickens with a knife" meant. But later, an interpreter told him in detail. Jared couldn't help but glance at Genjiro Akashi viciously, obviously very angry.
Akashi Motojiro's words are really annoying, what do you say to kill chickens with a knife? Of course, it is true that dealing with this kind of Boxer is a killing of chickens and using a knife, so that the Americans can easily defeat it. But although everyone knows that the Americans are weak in combat, don't say it directly! Killing chickens uses a knife to kill chickens, which means that the Japanese army is a knife and a powerful "knife". The American army is an ordinary "chicken killing knife", which is not as powerful as the Japanese knife knife. So. This is clearly exalting the Japanese army and belittling the American army!
Because of this, the American general Jared was very angry. Glared at Genjiro Akashi. However, Akashi Genjiro didn't seem to see it at all, and he continued to close his eyes and recuperate. But Akashi Genjiro was thinking about how to provoke the relationship between these Eight-Nation Alliance. This time, the Eight-Nation Coalition is actually a group of bandits, although they cooperate with each other, but in fact, they are also guarding against each other, obviously afraid of when they will be hacked. In addition to Austria-Hungary, there were also Italy two soy sauce presences, and the Germans did not work. Don't expect much benefit. Other countries want to be able to reap the benefits, so this is where Genjiro Akashi can use his talents. As long as they can sow discord among these Eight-Nation Alliances, it will be a good thing for both Nadi and Wang Guorui. When the time comes, their internal contradictions will deepen, and Wang Guorui can take the opportunity to cooperate with Genjiro Akashi, which can cause problems within them.
"Next. Rush me and beat me all these unpopular guys! Jared shouted at the American troops.
This time, the Americans sent more than half of the country's army, that is, they hoped to follow the Eight-Nation Alliance to gain advantage of this opportunity. Anyway, they don't have any enemies at home, and they don't have any strong enemies in the Americas, so they don't have anything to fear. So now more than half of the country's army has been sent, hoping to reap the benefits. This kind of United States is really a good place, not only is it far away from the world core of Europe, but although it has left the core of the world, it can develop here detachedly, and without participating in any European competition, it will naturally not lose its national strength, and sooner or later it will surpass Europe.
"Kill!"
The Americans lined up in a row and walked to the front.
"Invulnerability, invulnerability!"
The Boxer soldiers continued to shout and then attacked the Americans.
"Raise your gun!"
The thousands of Americans who were at the forefront also immediately raised their rifles, and for such an unpopular guy as the Boxers, they didn't even use any special weapons or special tactics, just just use this almost outdated queue tactic to shoot them.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Gunfire rang out one after another, and the Boxers were also killed, and then they were killed almost a thousand people in one shot. These Boxers were good at harming the people, but when it came time for them to fight, they were nothing. They can't even defeat the decadent and backward armies of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, how can they beat the armies of these foreigners?
"Hahahaha, these guys are not vulnerable at all!" American General Jared laughed.
However, then, no one noticed that a Boxer leader immediately began to transfer troops.
"You guys, don't be stupid enough to follow them head-on. Not to mention that we Boxers, even the army of Taiwan has no way to resist them head-on! So now you can take a detour from the side, and then you can sneak up on their rear. Then you must fight if you can beat it, and run away if you can't beat it. Anyway, it's just to delay their attack, and your goal is not to destroy the enemy, understand? Tian Lihui asked.
Soon, the Taiwanese officers disguised as Boxers immediately said: "Okay, shall we prepare immediately, carry out a sneak attack from both sides of the street, and then conduct guerrilla warfare?" ”
"That's right, we also want to conduct urban guerrilla warfare in such places, to ensure that we can delay these invaders as much as possible. What we have to do is to use the limited army we have, and then through harassment and so on, and then we can get those guys under our siege as well. At that time, we can let them all be delayed, as long as we wait for our large army from Taiwan to come to support, then we can also get very great security. ”
"Remember, our goal is to delay the enemy's attack and make their attack to the capital later, and to try to delay the arrival of our large forces. As for that time, our task will be completed, and everyone can follow Lord Wang to ask for an official position. Tian Lihui said.
Someone immediately reassured: "It's just that if we don't let us destroy the enemy, then we can all rest assured." We can't even get a gun in our hands, so we might be able to destroy the enemy if we don't go hungry. But as long as we hold them back, we can still do it. We're just going to hold them back, so we'll just wait for reinforcements from our rear. These foreign devils, I will also let them see the methods of our Chinese. ”
The guerrillas who were mixed in with the Boxers also began to advance one after another, they were all Taiwanese officers who developed from the Boxers, they were all young and middle-aged, and they were all very powerful people. When other Boxers went to rob and rape, they were training seriously. Although they are much worse than those who are professionally trained, they are able to train very effectively and seize the time, so that they can get a steady stream of training results, and now it is time to test the results. They had been training in urban guerrilla warfare, and their purpose was to be able to conduct guerrilla warfare in the cities and to be able to resist the enemy's means in the cities. And the means of fighting the enemy in these cities are actually changed according to some tactics in street warfare in later generations. And the army of this era rarely has experience in street fighting, and even they advocate field warfare.
The armies of this era were all field armies, and they rarely fought in the cities, so they certainly had no experience. This also gives Taiwan the opportunity to target them, and Tanya is very good at street fighting in the city, so it is absolutely very good to let Tanya write the teaching materials.
