Chapter 438: The Position Has Been Changed Again

This shouting and killing came quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was behind the Taiping army led by Lu Qingtian, and the dazzling sun flag fluttered in the wind, Lu Qingtian saw this, his face couldn't help but change greatly, the situation could not be clearer, the Japanese army is coming.

However, Lu Qingtian's reaction was not slow, he immediately divided his Taiping army into two parts, one part was used to withstand the Japanese army attacking from behind, and the other part was used to continue to exert pressure on the Japanese army led by Togi Takayoshi.

Although Lu Qingtian and his Taiping army reacted quickly enough, after all, the Japanese army came by surprise, so the Taiping army's defense line was not completely built, and the Japanese reinforcements had already crashed into the defense line, which immediately put the Taiping army's already very weak defense line into a dangerous situation.

Seeing this scene, the Taiping army fought back desperately.

It's another melee.

Togi Takayoshi and Takasugi Shinsaku, who were directing the retreat of the Japanese army, were overjoyed when they saw the reinforcements coming, and they immediately ordered the army to stop retreating, began to turn to the counteroffensive, and together with the Japanese reinforcements, they flanked the Taiping army led by Lü Qingtian and Li Kaifang.

Once again, the situation on the battlefield was reversed, and the Japanese army once again gained the upper hand.

This is really a turn of feng shui, when to come to my house, however, this time the feng shui turned a little bad, and it turned to little Japan.

With the strength of the Japanese army, the pressure on Lu Qingtian and Li Kaifang increased suddenly, they had been fighting with the army led by Takasugi Jinsaku for a long time, both physically and mentally, the consumption was very huge, and at this time, with the addition of this new force of the Japanese army, it is conceivable how difficult it is for the Taiping Army to resist at this time, and how much pressure they have to bear.

Perhaps, if it weren't for the belief in their hearts that encouraged them to persevere, I'm afraid they would have collapsed.

And as the Japanese army advanced step by step, the space occupied by the Taiping army was getting smaller and smaller, and the casualties were increasing.

For the Taiping army, the shape shì was already very severe.

So, where did this Japanese army, which brought such pressure to the Taiping Army, come from, and how did they come to attack the Taiping Army at this time, Lu Qingtian and Li Kaifang thought of this question almost unwillingly in despair.

Lu Qingtian, who was in a bad mood, raised his head, he wanted to see what kind of sacredness this Japanese army suddenly appeared, he looked at the flag of the Japanese army carefully, and saw a few big characters written on it, the first division of the Japanese army.

It turned out that the Japanese 1st Division, which escaped outside Pyongyang, that is, the old division of Yoshida Shoin, is now under the command of Obokuritsu, but aren't they guarding in Kaesong, how could they suddenly appear here, Lu Qingtian can't figure it out.

In fact, Ito Hirobumi, who was sitting in Kaejo, never left these two armies for a moment since he beat Takasugi Shinsaku and Sakamoto Ryoma led his troops, and he always grasped the pulse of these two armies, and when the camp led by Takasugi Shinsaku was attacked, Ito Hirobumi learned the news, and after consulting with Obokuritsu, he decided that Ohbokuritsu personally led the 1st Division to aid the besieged Takasugi Shinsaku, while Ito Hirobumi continued to lead the 10th Division to stay in Kaesong.

Obokuritsu led the army in a timely manner, and as soon as he arrived, he relieved the danger suffered by Takasugi Jinsaku, and by the way, forced the Taiping army to a dead end.

Under the pressure of the Japanese army step by step, although the shape shì is very unfavorable to the Taiping army, but the Taiping army will definitely not sit still, they launched a Jedi counterattack under the leadership of Lu Qingtian and Li Kaifang, and the purpose of their counterattack is not to stand out, but to kill more small Japan, in fact, surrounded by the superior forces of the Japanese army, the Taiping army has been surrounded by water, if the Taiping army wants to break through, I am afraid that it is to hit the stone with an egg, and kill itself.

However, if you don't break through, it will be a dead end, so no matter which way you go, everything you put in front of the Taiping army is a dead end.

Perhaps, the Sixth Legion has really embarked on a point of no return this time.

At such a critical moment, the Sixth Legion must come up with a solution, otherwise, it will have to wait for death.

"General, give the order to break through, only by breaking through can we have a glimmer of hope." Li Kaifang looked at the retreating Taiping army, and a sense of powerlessness arose in his heart, and he said to Lu Qingtian with an extremely sad heart.

After fighting for so long, to be honest, Li Kaifang is really a little tired.

"Kaifang, we can't be discouraged, as long as there is a slight opportunity, we have to persevere, and then insist, even if we die, we must die standing up, even if we leave the last drop of blood, we can't let the Japanese army have a better time." Lu Qingtian gritted his steel teeth and hated the earth.

The ambition dies before the body is rewarded, and the hero is full of tears.

Lu Qingtian has always had a heart to serve the country, he really never thought that he would bury his bones here today, he has too much unwillingness in his heart, and too much nostalgia, he still wants to kill more Japanese.

"Yes, General." Li Kaifang nodded, and the trace of war intent in his heart that was about to be extinguished began to burn again.

Lu Qingtian thought for a while, and then asked, "Kaifang, how many people are left?"

"It is estimated that there are still about 120,000 people, and since the departure from Pyongyang, our Sixth Army Corps has lost 30% of its men and horses, and the losses are really huge." Li Kaifang's face was gloomy and he said very unhappily.

With so many brothers dead, who will be happy.

"Hmm." Lu Qingtian nodded sternly, and it could be seen that he was in a very unhappy mood.

Yes, who can be happy with the death of so many people, but this is not over, if it continues like this, the remaining 120,000 people of the Sixth Army will probably be planted here, Lu Qingtian is a little afraid to think about it.

If these 120,000 people are really compensated here, then there is no need for Huang Xu and the coalition command to pursue it, and Lu Qingtian can only apologize with death.

What should I do now, Lu Qingtian let out a long breath, as if he wanted to spit out all the depression in his heart, he shook his slightly swollen head, and he was still at a loss for the current shape.

He really couldn't think of any good way to solve the danger today.

The blind people understand that now they only have two ways to choose, first, fight to the death with the Japanese army, kill as many as they can, and second, break through, but no matter which way they go, there will be risks, and the last thing Lu Qingtian can take now is the risk, not to the point of last resort, Lu Qingtian does not want to take risks, because his top priority is to find a way to keep the remaining 120,000 troops of the Sixth Army.

Is it to break through or fight to the death, Lu Qingtian looked around at a loss, his heart was even more dazed, and he didn't know what to do.

It would be nice if the military advisor was here, at least, he could help him come up with ideas, maybe the situation would be better.

Lu Qingtian couldn't help but think of Wang Xiaoyong, he finally understood the importance of strategizing now, what he lacked now was this kind of think-tank type who could strategize.

"Alas......" Thinking left and right, thinking before and after, Lu Qingtian couldn't help but sigh.

The current predicament is a dead end, Lu Qingtian is unspeakably worried in his heart.

Seeing that Lu Qingtian was silent, Li Kaifang became anxious, and he said: "General, it seems that the shape is becoming more and more unfavorable, and you have to make a decision early."

When Lu Qingtian heard this, he looked at the battlefield in front of him, and the shape that caught his eyes was indeed very unoptimistic, and it was no exaggeration to say that the shape was almost at the point of danger, if they hesitated again, the shape would definitely be a thousand miles away, and they would never be able to turn back.

Lu Qingtian was very nervous and didn't know how to draw this conclusion.

"General..."Li Kaifang couldn't help but urge again.

It seems that Li Kaifang is even more anxious than Lu Qingtian, yes, in the face of such a scene, can you not be in a hurry.

"Order the army to break through." Lu Qingtian sighed again and made a final decision.

Maybe this is the best choice now, retreat, you can also save part of your strength, if you continue to stay here, then what awaits them will be the fate of the annihilation of the whole army, so, the lesser of the two, in the current situation, retreat is undoubtedly the best choice.

"Yes, General, I'll arrange it now." Li Kaifang got Lu Qingtian's approval, and seemed to be relieved, he wanted to turn around and leave, and immediately went to convey the order to break through to the army.

"Kaifang, you wait first." Lu Qingtian seemed to remember something and stopped Li Kaifang.

"General, what's the matter?" Li Kaifang's face was puzzled.

"Although it is said that we want to break through, we also have to decide on the strategy in advance, how to break through, where to break through, who will cover, who will break off..., these things must be decided first." Lu Qingtian frowned and said.

"General, needless to say, you lead the main force of the army to break through, and I am responsible for attracting the enemy and breaking the rear." Li Kaifang is rightfully authentic.

Looking at Li Kaifang's calm face, and the bland words that floated into his ears, Lu Qingtian's heart fluctuated, he was proud of having such a brother, and he also had reason to be proud, knowing that he was going to die, but he did not hesitate, what kind of mind does this need, and how much courage does it take.

"No..."Lu Qingtian was about to refuse.

didn't think about it, before he finished speaking, Li Kaifang had already reached out and held his hand, only to hear Li Kaifang say with a smile: "General, this kind of thing, it's better for me, you don't have to fight, this Sixth Army can be less than me Li Kaifang, but it must not be a young general, general, I have made up my mind, you don't say it again."

Li Kaifang's face was resolute, and it could be seen that he had made up his mind.

"Kaifang, you..." Lu Qingtian wanted to say something, but his eyes were red, and he just called Li Kaifang's name, and he couldn't say any more.

"General, don't worry, the fortune teller has already said that my life is long, you don't have to worry, I will definitely meet you safely." When Li Kaifang said this, his voice began to become a little hard.

"Good brother!" Lu Qingtian couldn't help but hug Li Kaifang into his arms and said affectionately.

A good brother, plus a simple action, is worth a thousand words.

The two hugged each other for a while, and then Li Kaifang gently pushed Lu Qingtian away, and then made a victory gesture at him, and then turned back step by step to prepare for the breakthrough.

Yes, it's time to break through, Lu Qingtian looked at the soldiers who were desperately fighting on the battlefield, and his heart was full of emotion. (To be continued.)
