In the bushes, Chen Fei was looking at the Mauser 1971 rifle in his hand and complained in his heart: "What kind of broken gun is this, the accuracy is too poor, you can't hit wherever you want, but fortunately, you can hit the little devils." ”

At this time, Chen Fei's clothes were sewn with a lot of strips of cloth, and from a distance they looked no different from a bush. This kind of clothing is very similar to the modern Gillette camouflage suit, the invention of the Gillette camouflage suit can be traced back to the 13th century in Scotland, where hunters often wear such clothes to hunt prey, among them there is a bird called "snipe", because it is extremely sensitive, so it is difficult to hunt, relying on this camouflage suit, it is much easier to hunt them, because birds and humans are very similar in the way they obtain information from the outside world, both rely on sight. Those who were adept at hunting this bird were called "sniper", and the word was later translated as "sniper".

At this time, the Japanese army did not care about looking for Chen Fei in the bushes, because the group of Qing cavalry had already rushed up the soil slope, the Japanese army was too small in number, and there was no advantage in front of the war horses, so there were heavy casualties, and the soil slope was soon occupied by the Qing army.

The Qing army immediately turned the muzzle of the Maxim machine gun above and aimed it at the Japanese army who were still struggling in the river.

The Japanese were lying on the ice under the command of the officer, but as soon as the guns rang out, several horses pulling artillery were frightened!

War horses were originally specially trained to ensure that they were not frightened by the sound of guns on the battlefield, but in the Japanese army, well-trained military horses were assigned to cavalry wings, and what should infantry wings do if they want to use horses? The quartermaster told the Wing Commander a word: you go and figure it out for yourselves!

The Japanese army's contempt for logistics and supply was once again revealed, these horses and guns were all snatched from the villagers, in fact, two of them were mules, but it was a pity that the Japanese soldiers who went to rob did not know the mules, so they were snatched as horses.

The cattle were frightened, pulled up the gun wagon and ran frantically, knocking the nearest two gunners to the bone and breaking their tendons, and killing them at that time, the cattle ran, and the ice was shattered again, and the shells on horseback fell on the heads of the Japanese soldiers, and several Japanese soldiers were smashed to death at that time.

At this moment, countless bullets fell on the heads of the Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese troops near the east bank of the river were very lucky, because they could quickly escape back to the shore, the Japanese troops on the east bank wanted to organize a counterattack, but the Qing soldiers changed the direction of fire and began to concentrate their fire on the Japanese troops on the east bank, the range of the Makqin heavy machine gun could reach 2000 meters, and the east bank of the river was a large open area, without shelter, so the Japanese soldiers had to retreat.

The most unfortunate is the Japanese army who has landed on the west bank of the river, they struggled in the cold river for a long time, and finally climbed ashore, the cold wind blows, people are going to freeze into popsicles, some barely raise their guns, but find that the bolt has been frozen, at this time, a soak of urine on the bolt is the fastest solution, but the Japanese soldiers have just come out of the cold and biting river water, that thing is frozen and almost retracted into the stomach, how can you pee!

The Qing soldiers did not directly rush at the Japanese troops on the riverbank, they only fired at a distance of about fifty meters, and the dense rain of bullets knocked down the crowds of Japanese soldiers.

Some Japanese troops began to run in the north and south directions, hoping to escape from the shooting range of the Qing army, but they seemed to have forgotten a little, and the soaked cotton clothes on their bodies lost their buoyancy on the shore and looked even heavier, where was the opponent of the Qing cavalry?

The Japanese soldiers who had already landed on the shore were quickly wiped out, and the Qing army approached the river bank and began to massacre the Japanese soldiers struggling in the river.

Speaking of the Grimm Cannon, many people will be at a loss when they hear it, but if it mentions its other name, I believe many people will suddenly understand, that is, the Gatling cannon.

In this era, the Gatling cannon was translated as the Grimm Cannon or the Grimm Cannon. The inventor of this cannon was not an engineer or a soldier, but a doctor, who saw the terrible conditions of the wounded on the battlefield and was bent on inventing something that would reduce the casualties of soldiers, and he invented this machine gun with a rate of fire hundreds of times that of ordinary rifles.

Unlike machine guns, the Grimm gun does not use the remaining gas after the bullet is fired to complete the automatic action of the bolt, but adopts the way of barrel rotation, it has multiple barrels, each barrel has an independent firing pin, and there is a bullet feeding device to provide bullets for the barrel. When firing, a shooter rotates the handle, the barrel rotates around the axis, the bullet is obtained at the feeding device, and then fired, and then the shell is withdrawn by turning the feeding position, and then the next barrel is fired, so as to achieve a high rate of fire.

Four Grimm machine guns aimed at the Japanese soldiers in the river and spit out tongues of fire, the blood of the Japanese soldiers instantly dyed the ice and water surface red, some soldiers began to swim to the east bank of the river, almost 200 meters to swim, the world record of human running 200 meters is less than 20 seconds, and the world record of swimming 200 is 2 minutes, so it is a wonderful means to kill the enemy in the middle of the crossing, and the river is full of ice and the corpses of Japanese soldiers, so it is slower to swim, and in an instant, the battlefield is full of the sound of bullets passing through the flesh.

Many Japanese soldiers tried to dive into the water to avoid the bullets, but the bullets still hit them in the water, and the bullets fired at high speed were still lethal at a depth of 20 meters.

Wing Commander Aoda Tsunobu on the east bank wanted to order his subordinates to return fire, but the artillery had all fallen into the water, and the Makqin heavy machine gun was suppressed by the machine gun on the opposite slope.

In fact, the bullets of the Qing army were not rich, especially the bullets of the Green machine gun, so soon the bullets of the Qing army were left, and they retreated in the direction of Jinxian.

This day is February 3, 1895, this battle is called the "Great Victory of the Great Ling River" by the Chinese side, there is no special name in the history of the Japanese war, this battle, the Japanese army killed 547 people, 1284 wounded, 801 missing, the reason why the number of missing is very large, because the surface of the Daling River froze again, and the later development of the war situation also made the Japanese army have no time to salvage the corpses, did not see the corpses, can not be counted as killed, can only be regarded as missing.

When the news was transmitted back to the headquarters, Lin Yuan's hanging heart finally let go, after all, the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it was really a lucky thing that the battle situation could develop as expected.

Wu Yuankai said: "Lord Lin is really a god in using soldiers, we might as well take Jinxian in one go." ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "No, order the troops to withdraw to Jinzhou immediately." ”

Wu Yuankai asked, "Lord Lin, what is this for?" We've just won a big battle! ”

Lin Yuan said: "I expect that the Japanese troops stationed in Jinxian will soon retreat. ”

Lin Yuan looked at Wu Yuankai's puzzled eyes and said slowly: "Moreover, a more brutal battle is coming soon." ”
