Chapter 225: The Massacre at Night

After forcing the soldiers of the 1st Volunteer Brigade back to the fortifications in the stronghold of Dashiqiao, Yama Prefecture felt that the balance of victory in this battle was already tilting in his favor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe arrival of the giant beast in the evening slowed down their efforts to harvest the fruits of victory. It's powerful, and it can stay in the air longer than the other one that comes up frequently. Night had fallen, and it was still circling the sky, unwilling to leave its comrades on the ground.

Hum! Want to rely on the roar of the engines to deter our attack? We are not afraid of an airplane that is blind in the dark. When we get close enough to fight with your soldiers, what can you do if you see us, do you dare to shoot your own soldiers?

Aritomo Yama had received reports that the First Volunteer Brigade was good at night warfare, but this stubborn Japanese old man of the late 19th century could not understand the working principle of night vision devices by his own imagination. Shan Youpeng imagined that those Great Song soldiers who carried out night raids should have some advanced equipment that could judge their location by the weak light source they used. Therefore, he ordered the soldiers involved in the assembly not to use torches and other lighting materials, and even to cover them with bright bayonets and sabers, and to assemble in front of the Dashiqiao stronghold by groping through the tunnels dug during the day.

At this time, Youpeng in Shanxian County's eyes were red, and he had a crazy and hideous expression at the end of the road. After seeing the powerful firepower of the Crossing People, he knew that his original so-called plan to force the Great Song Dynasty to revise the secret agreement had been completely bankrupt, and he felt that perhaps Lushunkou had fallen into the hands of the First Volunteer Brigade at this time. He was the main culprit in provoking this conflict, which would eventually end with the Japanese navy and army being beaten to the brim. In order to appease the anger of the Great Song, he will be pushed out to be the chicken that kills the monkeys.

However, at this time, what he was thinking about was not the fate of some scapegoat. The Japanese army and the Great Song Dynasty fought for several months but it was not confirmed that they had obtained the exact results of killing the local soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and Shan County Youpeng felt that this was a shame for the army, and he wanted to be the first commander to reap the record of killing the local soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, so that even if he ended up committing suicide and apologizing, he was still the first person in the Japanese army to win this honor!

The rise of the empire requires someone to shed blood and sacrifice for it, and now that I have successfully introduced the polar bear, if the Great Song wants to seize the interests of the Far East, he must fight to the death with this greedy polar bear, and the empire will get a precious respite. And I, Yama Prefecture Aritomo, Ichisuke Takeo, will receive the honor of being the first commander of the Japanese army to capture the 1st Volunteer Brigade Maji, and this will be enough for me personally, thought to the fanatical militarist.

Despite being in a state of brain-dead that resembles shouting Alahu Akoba, Yama Youpeng's plan has not been successfully implemented. The big lawn mower, which costs more than 100 million dollars, is not all the shelf goods of the arms dealer Pit Eagle Sauce Congress, and it has many advanced fire control radars and thermal imagers all over its body. Finding a few thousand soldiers on the ground 1,300 meters down the ground by night was not a problem for it at all, although those soldiers seriously and strictly carried out the order of Yama Prefecture Youpeng to eliminate all light sources. The soldiers' body temperature 40 degrees Celsius above their surroundings would allow them to appear clearly on Cheng Ziyi's aiming screen.

Cheng Ziyi held the remote control stick in his hand and waited for the AC-130U to fly to the side of the Japanese assembly column, so that the lethality of the "Balancer" 25mm cannon would reach the maximum, and the shells fired into the Japanese queue from the side oblique would have a greater chance of hitting multiple targets. The AC-130U, which was circling as a lighthouse against the Oishibashi stronghold, quickly bypassed the front of the Japanese line and came to the left side of the line.

“Its?/show/?time!?” The female man Cheng Ziyi screamed loudly despite the disdainful eyes of his younger brother Cheng Jinqian, and pressed the launch button in his hand.

Strings of tracer bullets whipped like flaming whips towards the Japanese soldiers who were assembling on the ground. Through daytime attempts, Cheng Ziyi has roughly grasped the gap between the landing point of the flawed "balancer" Gatling machine gun and the landing point given by the fire control computer at this speed, and the Japanese troops on the ground are gathering unscrupulously and intensively because the defenders of the Dashiqiao stronghold retreat to the inner ring fortifications, Cheng Ziyi's round of strafing is really a massacre. The soldiers who were lucky enough to avoid the 25mm cannon shells could not see the situation of their companions clearly, but their ears were full of screams, and their bodies were wet and covered with the flesh and blood of their comrades.

The steel beasts in the sky stopped shooting, and the surrounding area was full of pre-dawn darkness, and the surviving Japanese soldiers had no idea where to flee, so they just stayed where they wept, screaming and crying loudly whether they were injured or not. In the distance, Youpeng in Shanxian did not know the loss of his troops because of the light, but the incessant screams and cries from there had clearly told him that his last extravagant hope had been shattered. This force he cobbled together, no matter how many survivors there were after this round of firepower, it was impossible to attack again.

The AC-130U in the sky bypassed the rear of the Japanese assembly point, turned around and flew along the right side of the Japanese column in the direction of the big stone bridge, and the cannon on its left side was still aimed at the Japanese soldier at this time. According to the original plan, Cheng Ziyi planned to make up a round of 25mm shells to completely relieve the siege of the Dashiqiao stronghold.

However, the fire controller prevented her from continuing to fire, and there were less than a third of the Japanese people standing in the column, so there was no need to spend more ammunition and wear out the barrels. These frightened Japanese soldiers could not even do anything to scatter in all directions, and it was no longer worth slaughtering them with precious ammunition.

An hour later, a bright light appeared on the horizon and dawn came. The large lawn mower hovering over the big stone bridge for nearly 12 hours also returned to the green paint area to refuel once, and the defenders in the big stone bridge stronghold have survived this cold night and began to return to the outer battlefield they abandoned yesterday afternoon, and the Japanese army has no signs of increasing its troops, and the AC-130U is about to retire.

At this time, a cavalry force of nearly 2,000 people took advantage of the faint light of dawn to move quickly towards the stronghold of the Great Stone Bridge. Advanced reconnaissance equipment on the AC-130U discovered the situation and informed the defenders of the stronghold of the Big Stone Bridge on the ground.

Both Zou Heming and Diana knew that these nearly 7,000 Japanese soldiers were the limit of what the Japanese First Army could draw. Although the Qing army was scrapped, it was not scrapped to the point where a small squad of the Japanese army could drive a thousand people away. In fact, in the Liaohe Plain, the Yi Army, Song Qingbu, and the banner soldiers under the command of Yi Ketang A all have a certain combat effectiveness. In order to stabilize the situation, the Japanese army was unreliable and increased its troops to Dashiqiao, so where did this cavalry unit come from? Did the Qing army rush over to pick peaches?

"Dashiqiao stronghold, we don't have much ammunition, we can only strafe for you one more round, and you will rely on yourself in the future, you must hold on until the arrival of the armored troops." The fire controller on the AC-130U said on the radio.
