Chapter 63: Ding Rongguang is shot

The angry Major General Shimoto Xiong Ya grabbed the adjutant beside him and shouted, "Immediately order the mountain artillery brigade to cover the position of the Chinese people with artillery fire!" I'm going to blow all these abominable Chinese pigs into powder! ”

"But Your Excellency, General, there are still some imperial warriors who have not yet withdrawn." The caught adjutant stammered as he reminded.

"Baga Ya Road!" Xia Yuan Xiong Ya pushed the adjutant to the ground, pointed to the direction of the battle between the two sides in the distance, and shouted loudly, "Do you think those people can come back?" Execute the order now! ”

"Hayi!" The adjutant struggled to get up and answered respectfully, and then hurried down to give the order.

Ding Rongguang cut down a little devil to the ground with a knife, and seeing that the living little devil had been almost wiped out, Ding Rongguang shouted loudly, "Brothers! Don't fight, retreat! "I've been fighting with the little devil for so long, Ding Rongguang's natural way of the little devil's tricks, and he also knows the power of the little devil's artillery, if he pursues it again, the little devil will be covered by artillery fire, and in this unobstructed open space, I'm afraid that all of my people will have to stay here, so Ding Rongguang saw that the little devil had been almost eliminated, so he decisively gave the order to retreat.

After Ding Rongguang finished shouting, he turned around and ran back, and after hearing the regiment commander's order to retreat, the soldiers also stopped the pursuit and retreated. Ding Rongguang had just run a few steps when he suddenly found a crooked machine gun next to him, which seemed to be intact. Ding Rongguang smiled, "This is a good thing!" So the old boy thrust his big knife behind his back, grabbed the machine gun and ran. Ding Rongguang saw that there were still more than ten meters to run into the trench, when a piercing scream suddenly sounded in the sky. Ding Rongguang's face changed, he gritted his teeth, and rushed towards the trench with his feet speeding up. Seeing that he was about to run into the trench, Ding Rongguang only heard a loud noise behind him, and then his feet were light, and he flew up directly, Ding Rongguang's body fell heavily on the edge of the trench, and the two quick-eyed soldiers immediately pulled Ding Rongguang in. I saw that Ding Rongguang had fainted at this time, his face was blurred by the flesh and blood, and a hole on his back was bubbling with blood.

"Your Excellency, General!" The chief of staff of the 24th Brigade, Nakasa Hirano, walked into the office of Kumaya Shimotomoto and said respectfully.

Xia Yuan Xiong Mi nodded with a gloomy face, "Say it!" What about the losses of the Fujino brigade? ”

"Hayi!" Hirano Nakasa lowered his head and reported respectfully, "In today's battle, a total of 891 imperial warriors, including Fujino Shaosa, were shattered, and all six new chariot vehicles of the chariot squadron were destroyed. More than 130 more people were wounded, most of them seriously injured and have temporarily lost their combat capability. ”

The muscles on Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's face trembled violently, and a pair of triangular eyes were instantly enveloped by angry flames, "Eight Ga Ya Lu!" Shimoto Kuami swept the teacups and other objects on the desk to the ground. An infantry brigade of the Chinese army had only 1,100 men, but in today's one-day battle, it lost nearly 900 men, and more than 100 people were wounded and withdrew from the battle sequence. You must know that although the 24th Mixed Brigade is a brigade, there are only three infantry brigades plus a mountain artillery brigade, and it loses the strength of one brigade in one day. Of course, the reason why Xiong Mi Xia Yuan was angry was not because he had lost nearly a thousand troops, but because he was worried that the loss was so great, how to explain it to His Excellency the division commander after the war! The loss of one brigade of troops failed to capture the position of the Chinese people, and there are still two brigades of troops left in the future, and it is even more difficult to capture the position of the Chinese people, and if you can't break through the position of the Chinese people, how can you explain to Your Excellency Commander Ueda! Thinking of this, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi only felt a burst of egg pain.

"Hirano-kun! Is it clear what kind of new weapon the people are using today? Shimoto Kuami asked as he rubbed his temples. When there was no second salvo of conscience cannons, Shimoto Kumaya made a special observation and found that those shells were fired from the positions of the Shina army.

Hirano Nakasa replied respectfully, "According to further investigation, this weapon used by the Shina people is not a heavy artillery at all. Rather, it was a new explosive bag throwing device invented by the Chinese people, and according to the soldiers who had escaped, they found that many used oil drums had appeared on the positions of the Chinese people, and those explosive bags were fired from these oil drums to the heads of our imperial warriors. ”

"Nani?" Shimoto Kumanya's eyes widened in surprise, although he had already guessed that it was not some heavy artillery, but when Hirano Nakasa said that those cannons were just some waste oil drums, Shimoto Kumanya's eyes widened in surprise, "Hirano-kun, are you sure those are just some ordinary oil drums?" Can just a few discarded oil drums inflict such heavy losses on our Imperial Army? ”

"Hayi!" Hirano Nakasa bowed his head respectfully, "Your Excellency, I am so sure that those are just ordinary waste oil drums, but the people of China have transformed them into a new type of artillery, this new type of artillery is extremely powerful, and its power is comparable to the power of heavy artillery with a caliber of more than one hundred millimeters. When the imperial army was caught off guard, it suffered a big loss. ”

Shimoto Kumiya had also seen the power of the conscienceless cannon at that time, so Shimoto Kumanya did not have the slightest doubt about Hirano Nakasa's statement about its power, "It's just that some waste oil drums have such a huge power?" ”

Hirano Nakasa continued, "It is estimated that after the transformation of the Chinese people, this kind of artillery can completely launch a bag of explosives weighing ten kilograms, and Your Excellency the general can imagine that the power of the explosion of ten kilograms of explosives is still quite huge. ”

Xia Yuan Xiong Mi sighed helplessly, and sat down on the chair with a buttock, "Now that the people of China have this new type of weapon, the next battle will be difficult to fight!" ”

Nakasa Hirano continued, "Your Excellency the Shogun, don't worry too much, although this new type of artillery is very powerful, it also has its fatal shortcomings. ”

"Oh! What a disadvantage. Xia Yuan Xiong Mi raised his eyebrows and hurriedly asked.

"According to humble estimates, the range of this new artillery is very limited. At most, there is a distance of two or three hundred meters. Your Excellency General, think about it, if the range of the artillery of the Chinese people is sufficient, there is no need for them to place their artillery directly at the forefront of the position, let alone wait for the Imperial Army to attack more than 100 meters away. Therefore, it was concluded that the effective range of this kind of artillery was only two or three hundred meters. Today, it is mainly because the imperial army was unprepared and was caught off guard by the Chinese people, so it caused such a big loss, and now that the imperial army is prepared, then this new type of weapon of the Chinese people is not to worry. Nakasa Hirano said confidently.
