Chapter 97: Going straight to Seoul

"Yo Xi!" Yamachi Motoji nodded with satisfaction and said, "I'm still quite relieved about Akiyama-kun!" Come on, come on! ”

Motoji Yamachi beckoned Akiyama Yoshiko to the map, pointed to the map and said, "The mission of your 1st Cavalry Brigade is to bypass the defense line of the Korean army in Suwon from here and go straight to Seoul!" With the speed of your cavalry brigade, you will be able to reach Seoul tomorrow morning, and Akiyama-kun will be able to act at the opportunity, understand? ”

"Hay! Humble duty understands! "Akiyama responded respectfully.

"Yo Xi!" Yamachi Motoji said with a smile, "After the infantry attacks, you can take the opportunity to bypass the defense line of the North Korean army, okay, you go down and prepare!" ”

"Hay!" Akiyama replied, turned around and strode away.

After Akiyama Yoshiko left, the chief of staff of the first division, Odaiji Yasumi Osa, walked up to the side of Motoji Yamagi and said, "Your Excellency the division commander, Katsura Taro has always been arrogant and arrogant, and he didn't ask us for help, why should we take the risk to save them!" Wouldn't it be better for us to reap the benefits of the fishermen when the Tiger Ben Army and the First Army fought to the death! ”

"Humph!" Mountain Motoji snorted coldly and said, "You drip, stupid drip!" Now that Katsura Taro has been completely surrounded by the Qing army, it is only a matter of time before he is annihilated. Once the main force of Katsura Taro's First Army is completely annihilated, do you think that with more than 5,000 people of our First Division, we will be able to defeat the Tiger Ben Army, which is in full morale? Although Katsura Taro is really annoying, from the perspective of the overall situation, we still have to try to rescue him as much as possible! ”

"Hay! Subordinates understood! Oji Yasuchun hurriedly responded. Your Excellency, Division Commander, although the Dongxue Army is vulnerable, but after all, there are many people, if they fight to the death, it will be difficult for the Locust Army to break through the Suwon defense line in a short time! ”

Hearing what Oji Yasuchun said, Yamachi Genji couldn't help frowning, "Oji-kun said this, is it possible that there is already a good way to break the enemy, you might as well say it!" ”

Daji Yasuchun smiled, "Your Excellency the division commander, Sun Tzu's art of war is cloudy, soldiers, and treacherous!" He believes that if we attack in a step-by-step manner, although we can win in the end, it will inevitably take time. So I came up with a plan that might be able to win by surprise! ”

………………

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The cannon roared, and the Japanese launched a fierce attack on Suwon Castle overnight, despite the darkness in the middle of the night. More than 2,000 little devils rushed towards the positions of the North Korean army with bayonets.

"How's the battle going?" Seeing that his general Cui Jingshan had returned to the headquarters, Quan Xun hurriedly asked.

"The attack of the Japanese is very fierce, and the battle is very tragic!" Cui Jingshan shook his head and said, "The losses of the troops are extremely heavy, and in less than half an hour of fighting, the new army suffered more than five hundred casualties!" If we continue like this, we will not hold out until dawn, and the entire defense line will be broken through by the Japanese pirates! ”

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!" Quan Junzhun gritted his teeth and said, "I think in two days at most, Lord Ren will be able to draw troops to support us, and then it will be time for us to counterattack!" ”

"Two days?" Cheng Douhan, a general of the Dongxue Army, frowned and said, "Even if we can hold out for two days, how many people will be left in the new army by then?" ”

Hearing this, Quan Qizhun couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, the new army can be said to be the lifeblood of Quan Qizun, if it is so desperate, how can Quan Qizhun not feel distressed. There was a hint of hesitation on Jeon Junjun's face, but he quickly made up his mind, and said with a stern face, "Even if the new army is defeated, it must hold Suwon, the new army is lost, and it can be rebuilt, but if it is defeated this time, North Korea may be destroyed!" Pass the order down, hold the position, no one is allowed to retreat without an order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded! ”

"Yes!" The generals responded.

The battle lasted less than an hour, and the little devil saw that he couldn't break through the defense line of the Dongxue Army in a short time, so he suddenly stopped attacking, looking at the little devil who retreated like a tide, and couldn't help but burst into cheers on the position! They have finally succeeded in repelling the attack of the pirates!

Quan Qizhun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he finally got through it! But thinking that the little devil's next attack would be even more violent, Quan Qizhun couldn't help frowning again, "Pass the order, repair the position, strengthen the vigilance, and never give the Japanese Kou any opportunity to take advantage of!" ”

"Yes!"

"In addition, report the latest battle situation to Lord Ren quickly!" Jeon Junjun finally added.

"Yes!"

Just when the Japanese army attacked, Akiyama Yoshiko's cavalry brigade had already taken the opportunity to bypass the defense line of the Donghak Army and went straight to Seoul. After the failure of the first round of attack, the main force of the 1st Division did not rush to launch a new round of attack, and the silence that it should have gradually returned in the middle of the night.

Most of the soldiers of the Dongxue Army on the city wall were already exhausted and leaning on the city wall and began to nap, at this time, a group of black shadows suddenly appeared outside the city, and they were slowly walking towards the city wall! There are hundreds of these people, all of them cautious, as if they are afraid of being discovered!

"Someone! Bang! The silence of the night was broken by the crisp sound of gunfire, and the gang was eventually spotted by the guards on the city walls! The guard decisively pulled the trigger and fired a warning shot!

"Don't shoot! We are not pirates! It's your own people! I'm Kim Kyung-tian! Open the gates! The Woko are about to chase after them! The people outside the city shouted.

"What? It's not a waka! Hurry up and report to the general! One of the leaders of the Dongxue Army hurriedly ordered.

"Bang! Bang! At this time, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded outside the city, and I saw a group of people running towards this side with torches in the distance, and I heard someone shouting something in Japanese from a distance.

After Cheng Douhan got the news, he hurriedly climbed the city wall, "Is Jin Jingtian you?" Cheng Douhan shouted at the city.

"Cheng Douhan! It's me, I'm here! We were scattered by the Japanese and have not returned to Suwon until now! Let us go into town! The little devil is about to catch up! Jin Jingtian shouted loudly under the city.

Cheng Douhan saw that the little devil was still far away, so he stretched out his hand and beckoned an officer of the Dongxue Army, "You take a platoon of brothers and go out to pick up General Jin into the city!" ”

"Yes!" The officer hurriedly replied.

"Order the third battalion to prepare for battle, and strictly prevent the little devils from taking the opportunity to sneak into the city!" Cheng Douhan continued to order.

"Ga Zhizhi!" The city gate was slowly opened, and a group of new army soldiers rushed out with guns, Jin Jingtian saw the city gate open, and immediately waved his hand excitedly and said, "Brothers! Town! As he spoke, he ran towards the city first, for fear that the little devils behind him would catch up!

When the little devil in the back rushed over, Jin Jingtian and the others had already entered the city, and at this time, the two machine guns on the city wall suddenly opened fire, and the little devil was caught off guard and was knocked down more than a dozen people at once, and the rest of the people ran back in a wolf.
