Chapter 16: The Harbor Massacre

Since the sinking of the Itsukushima, the Japanese fleet has not had any incident, and they have been escorted by the Beijing ship for a day and a night, and at ten o'clock in the morning of September 19, they reached Garulin Bay.

Galulin Bay is located in the north of Incheon, is a temporary anchorage for the Japanese army, and the shore is also equipped with dozens of coastal defense heavy guns with a caliber of more than 200 mm, they are Ito Youhyung's worst bet, if the opponent's ships sail into Galulin Bay, the Japanese army will immediately use mines to block the exit, at that time the other side's ships under the blow of the shore defense artillery, it will be more than lucky.

Ito Yuhiro stood on the bridge and looked at the port in the distance, he didn't expect that the seemingly shrewd Captain Lin to agree to his request so easily, it seems that the people of China are the people of China!

Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing were invited to the bridge at this time, and Ito Youheng looked at them triumphantly, thinking, "It's finally time to vent the evil spirit." ”

Just when Ito wanted to laugh at Lin Yuan, suddenly he realized that something was wrong with the situation in the port!

It was no longer the sunburst flag that fluttered over the harbor, but a dragon flag!

Ito's smile froze, he already understood what the flag change meant, that is, the port had been occupied by the Qing army!

Impossible, absolutely impossible, since the Japanese army conquered Pyongyang on September 16, the Qing army has all retreated to the north of the Yalu River, while the Japanese First Army, under the leadership of Yama County Aritomo, is stationed south of the Yalu River, ready to cross the Yalu River and enter northeast China at any time.

Lin Yuan looked at the dragon flag in the distance, smiled happily, and said: "Your Excellency the commander is really hospitable, knowing that we are coming, he specially asked his subordinates to hang out the dragon flag to greet him. ”

Lin Yuan looked at Ito Youheng, who was not smiling, and said with a smile: "Our ship is not familiar with the situation in the port, and our ship has a deep draft, once it runs aground in the port, it will be very troublesome, our ship will not enter the port, and I and my assistant will enter the port with you, and after entering the port, we will temporarily take over your fleet." ”

Ito Yuhiro did not speak, and the bridge was unusually quiet for a while, and gradually, the Itsukushima ship sailed into the berth, and the Japanese soldiers on the shore were all dejected, because behind them, Qing soldiers were pointing guns at them. Ito Yuhei Zhilu said that the Qing soldiers who were captured in the Battle of Chenghuan and the Battle of Toshima were imprisoned here, but he really couldn't figure out how these walking dead prisoners turned our warriors of the Imperial Japanese Army into prisoners!

The Lang speed ship was the first to lean on its berth, and there were more than a dozen Qing soldiers with loaded guns in front of the berth, who were originally prisoners, all holding guns at this time, looking at the Japanese soldiers on the ship proudly, Lin Yuan frowned, how could these Qing soldiers stand in the open space in a big way, what if the Japanese soldiers on the ship shot at them! At this moment, Lin Yuan discovered that something was wrong with the situation, the turret on the ship, behind the mast, there were many Japanese soldiers with guns dodging!

Lin Yuan didn't have time to remind him, the Japanese soldiers on the ship had fired!

The crew of the Lang speed ship is 352 people, excluding the observers who were shot by snipers in the previous battle, there are 348 people left, and the ship is equipped with 50 Murata 22-year rifles, this gun is a single-shot gun, designed by the Japanese Army Major Samura Murata Jingfang, we often hear about the 38-type rifle, that is, the Murata 38-year rifle, that era is not the Common Era, but the year of the Japanese emperor, the so-called 38-year style and 22-year style, refers to the 38th year of Meiji and the 22nd year of Meiji.

Compared with later automatic rifles, the shooter had to remove the cartridge casing from the chamber with his hand after firing, and then load the next bullet with his hand, so the rate of fire was slower. After all, the Japanese troops on the ship were not the army, and their shooting level was not high, so they used a salvo fire, and after a gunshot, more than a dozen Qing soldiers were all shot and fell to the ground.

At this time, the Japanese soldiers on the ship set up a ladder from the side of the ship to the ground, and as soon as they got off the ship, they rushed to the Qing soldiers at other berths.

Seeing this situation, Ito Youheng glanced at Lin Yuan proudly, but he didn't expect Lin Yuan to have a panicked expression at all, he said lightly: "Your Excellency Commander, please give the order to your subordinates to stop the senseless resistance, such a charge can only cost their lives!" ”

Ito sneered, "Even if you can capture the port, our heroic samurai of the Great Japanese Empire can take them back." ”

Lin Yuan sighed and looked at Ito Youheng silently, his eyes seemed to be looking at an ignorant child.

At this time, the sound of "da-da-da" and "da-da-da" sounded, and Ito Yuhyung was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily asked, "What kind of sound is this?" ”

Lin Yuan was too familiar with this voice, which was the sound of the Type 03 squad machine gun used by the Marine Corps soldiers. A squad of the reinforced platoon led by Chen Fei was shooting at the Japanese soldiers on top of a pile of cargo boxes.

The history of machine guns, which began in 1884 with the American inventor Halleym? Makqin, he invented the world-famous Maxim machine gun, and the machine gun was widely accepted by the Japanese army after the Russo-Japanese War in 1904, the Japanese army suffered the loss of machine guns when attacking the Russian fortress in Lushun, at that time some commanders did not even know that there was such a thing as a machine gun in the world of Ludao, and they sighed in confusion: "For what Russians beat the drum, the heroic samurai of the Japanese Empire fell?" ”

Almost all the sailors on the Lang speedship took part in the battle, those with guns with guns, and those without guns with bayonets and even kitchen knives! There were about 200 people, and they also saw the fire point on the pile of goods 400 meters away, and at this time, I don't know who roared, and everyone rushed towards the pile.

A smile appeared on the corner of Ito's mouth, after running a distance of four hundred meters, he still had to have a certain amount of physical strength to fight after running, almost a minute and a half, a minute, and the best shooter could only shoot ten bullets.

But what happened later forced Ito Youheng's smile back, because he saw that the gun at that firing point did not stop at all to change the bullet manually, but kept spitting out tongues of fire "da-da-da"!

This machine gun uses the same bullet as the Type 03 rifle, which is extremely penetrating and the Japanese are very dense, so a single bullet usually penetrates two or three Japanese soldiers.

In a minute and a half, enough for a machine gun to fire a thousand rounds, and soon, about two hundred Japanese soldiers lay down on the ground!

To borrow the words of a Japanese commander after the ambush in Pyongyang during the First Sino-Japanese War, he described the battle at the port, "This is not a battle, but a massacre!" ”

In less than a minute, 200 Japanese soldiers were killed, and such a scene shocked every Japanese officer and soldier, and there was no trouble in the ensuing detention process.

At this time, Lin Yuan and Shen Wanqing stepped off the Itsukushima ship, and Shen Wanqing asked, "All of this is part of your plan, isn't it?" ”

Lin Yuan smiled and didn't answer, Shen Wanqing smiled bitterly, and said, "When I was on the ship, I helped you, but you still don't trust me, do you?" ”

Lin Yuangang wanted to explain something, but Shen Wanqing said lightly: "No need to explain, I understand, anyway, my enemy charge can't be cleared." After saying that, she sat alone in a place where no one was and quietly looked at the sea.

Lin Yuan looked at her lonely back under the golden sunlight, and felt indescribably sad, he just wanted to walk over and say something, when he saw a group of soldiers, wearing 07-style camouflage uniforms, walking towards him from the shore, led by Chen Fei.

I saw Chen Fei "snap" upright, saluted, and said: "Report to Comrade Chief, our department has successfully completed the task of seizing the port, whether to return to the ship, please instruct!" Commander: Instructor of the Marine Brigade of the Beijing Ship, Chen Fei! ”

These few sentences are the command phrases commonly used by our army, and in all levels of troops, when the personnel are assembled, there will be a procedure for requesting instructions and reporting.

Lin Yuanha said with a smile: "Okay, if there is no one else here, you don't have to do this form, hurry up and return to the team, we are about to have a big operation!" ”
