Chapter 39: Annihilation!
Quan Qizhun and Yan Shiyong saw that Ren Chao had made up his mind, and they dared to persuade him again, so they could only stand aside honestly. It's just that at this time, the two of them thought completely differently, and Quan Qizhun saw that Ren Chao looked confident, and couldn't help but secretly guess in his heart, what magic weapon did this Ren Chao have to deal with the Japanese cavalry! Quan Junjun, who has experienced the incident in Seoul, has already regarded Ren Chao as a god in his heart. And Yan Shiyong, at this time, was standing there tremblingly, constantly praying in his heart for the blessing of the Buddha, bless the Japanese cavalry not to come, in Yan Shiyong's eyes, Ren Chao's behavior is tantamount to looking for death, the power of the Japanese cavalry Yan Shiyong has already seen it, he doesn't think that Ren Chao has any way to deal with the Japanese cavalry.
"Your Excellency, Captain, look there!" One of the horsemen grabbed the reins of his horse and pointed to a hillside in the distance.
Ito Nakasa slashed a fleeing Togaku soldier to the ground, and when he heard this, he raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see a dragon flag waving in the wind on the hillside. Ito Nakasa, who was lamenting that his opponent was too weak, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this big banner, laughed and said, "That's the handsome banner of the commander of the Qing army, pass the order, immediately stop chasing and killing the rebels, attack there, we want to capture the commander of the Qing army alive!" Hahahaha" After saying that, Ito Nakasa couldn't help but look up and laugh.
The little devil herald quickly began to impress the banner, and the Japanese cavalry, who had been scattering to chase and kill the Dongxue Party soldiers, quickly gathered together after receiving the order.
"Kill, give!" Ito Nakasa excitedly waved the command knife in his hand and shouted loudly.
The little devil immediately urged the war horse under his seat, brandished his shining saber, and rushed towards the hillside where Ren Chao was located.
"Rumble!" The dull thunderous sound sounded again, and hundreds of Japanese cavalry lined up in a charging formation and rushed over quickly. Its momentum is like a galloping horse, and the momentum is impressive. In fact, this is also one of the advantages of cavalry, this kind of overwhelming, irresistible momentum, has made the enemy frightened, and even completely lost the courage to resist.
"Fire!" Ren Chao was naturally not intimidated by this momentum, and decisively gave the order to open fire.
"Knock knock!" A dull sound of artillery rang out, and the twelve mountain guns and field artillery equipped with the artillery battalion let out angry roars one after another. With a whistling sound that tore through the air, the twelve shells cut a perfect arc through the air and landed accurately in the charging formation of the Japanese cavalry.
"Boom, boom!" A series of violent explosions sounded, setting off a bloody rain, which suddenly turned the little devil on his back, and the stormtrooper formation became scattered.
"Keep charging! Kill give! But this did not stop the crazy Ito Nakasa, but made Ito Nakasa even more excited, because this showed that his judgment was not wrong, the hillside is indeed the main force of the Qing army, and its commander is likely to be on the mountain, Ito Nakasa seems to have seen a shining medal beckoning to him.
Speed is an advantage of the cavalry, and it can also be said to be the greatest advantage, the twelve cannons of the artillery battalion are obviously impossible to stop the charge of hundreds of cavalry, because the cavalry is fast-moving, not a stationary dead target, often when the cannon is still aiming, the cavalry has already rushed over. In the end, the artillery battalion completed only two salvos, and the Japanese cavalry had already rushed to a distance of five hundred meters.
"Lord Ren, the cavalry of the Japanese Invaders is too powerful, let's prepare to retreat!" At this time, Yan Shiyong could no longer control the panic in his heart, and ran to Ren Chao and begged bitterly.
"Shut up! If you dare to shake the heart of the army, Lao Tzu will behead you and sacrifice the flag! Ren Chao glared at the beads of his eyes and reprimanded loudly.
"Ahh Yan Shiyong was forced by Ren Chao's momentum, and he took several steps back in fright, sat down on the ground with a slump in his ass, and muttered to himself, "It's over!" Finished! Looks like I'm going to give an account of my old bones here! ”
"Tell the infantry battalion to prepare for battle!" Ren commanded loudly.
As Ren Chao's order was conveyed, rows of black holes of guns stretched out of the trenches and aimed at the Japanese cavalry who were rushing quickly.
"Call me! Hit hard! Ren said loudly.
"Bang bang bang!" The riflemen pulled the trigger in their hands one after another, "Da Da Da!" Sixteen Maxim machine guns also roared in anger almost simultaneously.
The bullets swept towards the little devil like a storm, and the screams of the devils and the sorrowful screams of the war horses suddenly rang out.
The Japanese cavalry who rushed ahead were shot and fell from their horses, and the war horses roared one after another and fell to the ground.
"Kill, give!" Ito Nakasa, whose eyes were red, was still roaring loudly, urging the war horse to charge forward. "Puff puff" A few muffled sounds sounded, and Ito Nakasa's body splashed with clouds of blood mist, and his body flew backwards like a broken sack.
Ito Nakasa was lying on his back on the ground, looking at the blue sky, and suddenly felt very tired, at this time, a huge horse's hooves continued to expand in the pupils, Ito Nakasa with a face of unwillingness, finally lost the last trace of consciousness, and ended his extremely dirty life.
The fierce battle lasted only ten minutes before it was completely over, looking at the more than a dozen Japanese cavalry that disappeared into the sky in the distance, Ren Chao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, a cavalry brigade of more than 500 people in the Japanese army, only a dozen people escaped, and it can almost be said that the whole army was wiped out. Looking at the mountain of corpses in front of the position, Ren Chao couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Ren Chao turned his head to look at the shocked Quan Qizhun and Yan Shi, and said with a smile, "You see, the little devil is nothing more than that, as long as the tactical movement is appropriate, even the most powerful enemy can only be trampled under our feet in the end." ”
"My lord is wise and martial, the heavenly soldiers are powerful, and I am just an Oriental wolf, but I am just a chicken and a dog in front of adults, what a way!" At this time, Quan Qizhun had been completely shocked by the strong combat effectiveness of the Tiger Army, and this shock directly affected Quan Qizhun for the rest of his life, so that after Quan Qizhun took charge of Korean military affairs, he did not dare to betray the Celestial Empire in the slightest.
Ren Chao laughed, waved his hand and said, "What a few hundred little devil cavalry are!" ”
At this time, Yan Shiyong finally woke up, tidied up his official uniform, stepped forward and said with a smile, "My lord is wise and martial, it is simply Guan Gong alive." It's just a slave on the three islands of the East, and the light of the fireflies dares to compete with the sun and the moon, which is simply beyond one's own strength and self-defeating! ”
"Alright, alright!" Ren Chao waved his hand impatiently to interrupt Yan Shiyong's sycophancy, turned his head and instructed the soldiers beside him, "Pass the order and clean up the battlefield immediately!" Be quick! The big army of the little devils should be almost there, and the real battle has just begun. ”
