Chapter 199: Destroying the withered and decaying
The agitated grenadier march continued to beat, and the soldiers of the American Independence Honor Corps, who had erected their flintlock pistols in front of them, strode forward with their backs straightened and did not squint, and when the remnants of the unwilling Japanese samurai on the opposite side rushed forward, they stopped, raised their flintlock pistols, and fired a volley, and the remnants of the samurai who had shouted Sakaki before trembled and fell to the ground unconscious.

If one salvo isn't enough, it doesn't matter, we still have the second and third rows......
With the roar of artillery and the advance of the line infantry, the last formed shogunate raiding party outside the town of Yokohama collapsed.
Noguchi Yamamoto stood in the roar of artillery fire, looking at the deserters who had collapsed and scattered with tears in his eyes, pulled out the katana in his hand, and said to Yamada Motoshi behind him: "Yamada-kun, the rest is up to you, this defeat will be borne by me to apologize, but you must persuade Your Excellency the general, you must no longer confront the Han Empire, their troops, tactics and weapons are an existence that we cannot fight, our samurai, we can't afford to die!" ”
Yamada Motoshi nodded heavily and said, "I know, Your Excellency Noguchi can go with confidence." ”
After speaking, as if he didn't want to see the scene of Noguchi Yamamoto committing suicide, he left this command place where the enemy was gradually approaching!
Noguchi Yamamoto stared at the bull's eye, raised his ribs and stabbed it into his abdomen, the corners of his mouth began to twitch and endure the pain in his abdomen, and the wrong person behind him swung his katana just right and cut off Noguchi Yamamoto's head!
Since then, there is no possibility for the shogunate crusade team to turn the tables, of course, even if Noguchi Yamamoto does not commit suicide, it is impossible to turn the tables, because the Japanese samurai and cavalry team, as the main force, were wiped out in the battle when the American Honor Independent Regiment landed!
The Honor Independent Regiment of the Americas, which was strengthened by nearly 10,000 troops, defeated all the Japanese samurai and cavalry who were not afraid of death in World War I, and the other units of the shogunate crusade team were defeated all the way back to Yokohama Town, and then the Japanese samurai and army stationed in Yokohama Town, and the flax troops that were crushed over, easily collapsed again......
So, there was no way to retreat, and Noguchi Yamamoto, who did not have any reserves, chose to commit suicide by seppuku in Yokohama Town!
With an absolute advantage in numbers and a solid landing point, the main force of the shogunate's raiding team, which was suddenly encountered, was crushed into powder.
It can be said that after this battle, half of the samurai of the Tokugawa shogunate have disappeared......
Dressed in military uniform and carrying a command knife, Flimado walked into the dilapidated town of Yokohama under the escort of many guards, and saw the tragic scene here, Flimado couldn't help but feel sorry for the Marines.
Although the main force of the Marine Corps is gone, their exploits and reputation have spread throughout the expeditionary fleet, and if Major Wang Gang had not personally supervised the battle in the final battle to defend the port position, I am afraid that the responsibility for the destruction of the main force of the Marine Corps this time will be held on his head!
However, the current situation is that the main force of the Japanese shogunate crusade is wiped out, and the Han Empire's landing force must have a smooth road ahead, and the soldiers of the Marine Corps will receive a pension except for becoming martyrs and their families......
Under the aura of great victory, there will be no punishment for army members, this is the army routine of the Han Empire, as long as there is victory, there are no sinners!
Although Wang Gang betrayed Mondora's troops and buried the main force of the Marine Corps, he successfully completed the basic goal, and that is correct!
How can there be immortals in war?
The Japanese civilians in Yokohama Town, who were constantly pulling through the ruins, retreated to the corner in fear after seeing Flaxdo's honor guard, and their numb eyes were full of grief and a trace of fear hidden in their hearts!
The civilians of Yokohama Town are the people who have the most intuitive insight into the armed forces of the Han Empire, and the scene of hundreds of samurai who are high up in the sky on weekdays falling under the guns of these overseas soldiers is destined to become a nightmare that will linger for them for the rest of their lives!
Flaxto glanced at the remnants of Japanese civilians around him, most of them were old and young, women and children, and men in the prime of life had almost become a rare existence, and it was clear that the invasion of the shogunate raid team had caused the town of Yokohama to be devastated!
Those young men of the security team who were loyal to the Shimaren family before, and the Japanese samurai who were victorious, came to a very thorough purge, and even many innocent Japanese young men were affected!
In Japan at this time, the orthodox samurai slashed and killed civilians, as long as there was a plausible reason, there was no blame (no wild samurai ronin in the background!). )。
A group of red-eyed Japanese samurai rushed in and swept up, and you can imagine what the town of Yokohama has become!
Suddenly, a soldier with a flintlock pistol on his back ran to the lineup of Flaxdo, and after saluting, he reported loudly: "Report to the regimental commander, we found the battalion commander of Mondora and his men from the cellar, as well as two Japanese!" ”
"Oh? Let Battalion Commander Mondora come and see me, I will meet the heroes of the Empire for myself! ”
In a short time, Mondora and Appado, with their hair scattered, faltered in front of Flax Do, escorted by several soldiers, and Mondora, who didn't even know where to throw his military hat and command knife, could be perfectly transformed into a 'noble' profession if he took off his military uniform, squatted at the street corner, and put a broken bowl in front of him......
"Mondora, the commander of the Special Imperial Marine Battalion of the First Expeditionary Fleet, reports to the commander of the Honorary Independent Regiment of the Americas that the Imperial Marine Corps has not failed, and we have always insisted on the battlefield in Yokohama Town!"
When Flax heard Mondora's report, his eyes flashed with a different color, and he held back the words in his mouth, and ordered the officers beside him: "Send someone to let the battalion commander of Mondora and his adjutant rest, take a shower and change clothes, and then let him go to my headquarters!" ”
Seeing that Flax was going to chat with him privately, the corners of his mouth curled a little, and without saying more, he followed the officer down!
――――
After a full rest, Mondora once again turned back into the fierce man full of majestic temperament, holding a military hat in his hand, and standing straight in front of Linendo!
The temporary headquarters where the two of them were located was one of the few houses in Yokohama that had not been burned down, and the flax was not used to the Japanese tatami mats, so they simply made two small wooden benches and put them here.
In addition to the military uniform, the two people who talked were like ordinary people chattering......
"Battalion Commander Mondola, there are no outsiders here now, you can tell me how the Marines were 'almost' wiped out."
Flax said indifferently, as if he didn't know anything.
Mondora lowered her head, paused and replied, "Commander, I am an officer from an Indian background. ”
After hearing more flax, the essence in his eyes flashed! (To be continued.) )
