Chapter 20: Heavy casualties
"Bang bang!"
Two gunfires broke the tranquility of the royal palace, and hundreds of foreign devils rushed out of the door with long spears shouting Jijiwawa's French.
The officer listened to the gunshots outside and dared not move rashly. He left thirty people to defend the palace, and the others lined up to the place where the gunshots were densely populated.
The remaining thirty people did not dare to sleep anymore, guarding the gates entering and leaving the palace. In the palace, there were only Fan Guoliang's door. At this time, there were two French soldiers guarding the gate standing in front of the door.
The gunshot just now were not released by Bai Jingqi, but this just gave Bai Jingqi a chance, and all the soldiers in the royal palace were attracted to the outside.
At this moment, Bai Jingqi was on the beam above them. He frowned. He could not help but feel a little upset when he listened to the sound of gunfire and explosions in various parts of the city. He knew that these gunfires mean that the number of casualties in the Hei Family Army was increasing, but at this moment he was powerless.
The assassination plan is called the "Three O'clock Plan". It lasts for two hours from 3:00 to 5:00 a.m., and the operation is about 1,000 people. Except for dozens of combat commanders and staff, everyone else will participate in the operation.
Three hundred people completed the designated removal task, and the other seven hundred people will be divided according to the area. In their own area, like him, they will choose their own targets. After this night, there are still many people left for these thousand people.
But he had to do this, and a century of shame happened before himself. As a Chinese, he could not watch the group of foreigners show off their power and run away after they robbed them.
Since you have decided, let’s start the war!
Thinking of this, Bai Jingqi no longer hesitated. A hook hung on the beam of the house. Bai Jingqi's figure was like a bat walking at night, quietly crossing the wall above the two French troops, and then landed from behind a soldier to the ground.
Before the soldier could react, a dagger penetrated into his heart. At the same time, Bai Jingqi threw another dagger out at the throat of another soldier. The strength of the dagger was so strong that it almost penetrated the entire soldier's throat.
After a moment, two soft corpses fell into Bai Jingqi's arms. He slowly placed the two corpses at the door. After five seconds, he dealt with them. A smug smile appeared on the corner of Bai Jingqi's mouth.
Twenty years of hard training have given him almost 100% control over his body. Over the years, there should be no less than a hundred people in his hands. Now, killing people seems to have no fluctuations in his heart.
But what he knew better was that even though he was dealing with ordinary people, he felt like he was playing house now, no matter how skilled he was, he was still just an ordinary person after all, and he could not be invulnerable to swords and guns when facing a spear. Therefore, his role was not to take action, because it would be better to do less of such things.
The higher his identity, the greater his responsibility. Bai Jingqi knew very well that when walking by the river, there was no way to wet his shoes. If he had wet his shoes, the Bai family might soon fall apart, and the Hei family army would completely lose control. His life was no longer his own.
The two French soldiers were dealt with, but there was no reaction in the room. Obviously, the other party did not notice the danger.
Perhaps for the missionary Fan Guoliang, he might never have thought that under the protection of the French army, someone would come to assassinate him. In his eyes, the Chinese were just a group of soft-legged shrimps without any combat power.
In fact, it was almost the same. In June, under the command of King Duan of the Qing Dynasty, tens of thousands of Boxers launched an attack on Fan Guoliang's Xishiku Church, but failed to capture it for two months. At that time, there were only dozens of foreign soldiers in the church, and they shot and killed one round after another. It was not until the coalition forces of the great powers arrived that the crisis of the Xishiku Church was resolved.
This incident also made Fan Guoliang completely lose any fear of the Qing court. He just wanted to make money at this moment and got all the silver from the families of the princes and nobles of the Qing court. Fan Guoliang in history got millions of taels of silver, but now, he can only go to the King of Hell to make money.
Bai Jingqi heard the increasingly fierce gunfire in the city, and felt that he should go and see. His skills could save many Hei family troops facing desperate situations. Thinking about it, he kicked open the door.
As soon as I stepped into the door, I saw a foreign bearded man in Chinese clothes sitting in the living room on a master chair, crossing his legs and reading a book, looking leisurely. Obviously, the other party did not take the gunshots outside seriously.
The bearded man was a little surprised when he saw Bai Jingqi's yellow-sex face. He immediately scolded with a proud look.
"Get out!"
Bai Jingqi was too lazy to talk nonsense to the other party, so he took a few steps forward and pulled out the specially made long thorn sword on his back. The bearded man saw the long thorn on Bai Jingqi's hand, and the shock and surprise on his face flashed away, and quickly raised his hands to block it.
Bai Jingqi smiled and raised the long thorn, and stabbed hard at his chest. The tip of the sword passed through his palm, and there was almost no resistance. It penetrated deeply into his heart. As soon as he stirred his hand, the bearded man's face turned blue in an instant, his eyes rolled round, and he swallowed completely.
Bai Jingqi drew out the long thorn sword, rubbed blood on the other party, took it back, looked at the bearded face, Bai Jingqi spat, spit on the other party, and then turned around and left without looking back.
When he walked to the door, he dragged the two soldiers at the door into the house and kindly closed the door.
Half an hour later, Bai Jingqi appeared on a street. The streets not far away were lit up in the sky, and the gunshots kept thundering. It was obvious that a battle was taking place in front of him.
He climbed up to the roof of a house and looked at the six foreign soldiers chasing a man in black running towards this side. The man in black's arms were drooping, obviously already injured. He staggered towards Bai Jingqi's street.
Bai Jingqi looked coldly and watched him walk into a dead end. It was obvious that the Hei Family Army was not familiar with this terrain, and judging from the appearance, he was not old and should be a member of the next few periods.
Six foreign soldiers soon followed. Several people looked at the dead end not far away and shouted excitedly. Several people raised their spears and stopped at a distance of more than ten meters from the Hei Family Army, and raised their guns toward the young man.
The Hei Family Army turned around and looked at the six spears, with despair in his eyes expressing his words. He roared hoarsely at the six foreign soldiers.
"Foreign devils, my god, grandma! I'm worth it in this life. I'll kill your whole family again in the next life! Come on! Shoot!"
"Bang bang...bang bang bang bang bang!"
As six gunfires sounded, the young Black Army closed his eyes and waited for death to come, but for a long time after the gunfire, it seemed that he was not shot?
He opened his eyes and looked at it and saw that there were only a few corpses lying on the dim streets, with the surrounding streets empty.
The young man was a little disbelief and walked carefully to the six corpses. Taking advantage of the dim moonlight, he saw that there was a bloody hole in the middle of the six people's heads. He then reacted and looked up quickly, but the roof was empty. At this moment, the young man completely understood.
He was rescued by someone, and the other party was on the opposite roof. Although it was only seven or eight meters, in this dark night, the other party shot six times and shot him to death. This shooting technique is so amazing. The person who can save him on this night can only be his own member.
At this moment, the young eyes became even more determined. In the Hei Family Army, one day they would overthrow the Qing court and do a grand career!
Bai Jingqi did not show up in front of this young man. In fact, many members of the later period only heard of Hei Qiye’s name but did not see him. This kind of meeting was meaningless.
Bai Jingqi's figure was like a ghost on this night, sometimes saving people and sometimes dealing with a few left-in-one foreign soldiers. Finally, the sky gradually turned white, and the gunshots in the city gradually stopped.
He looked at the pocket watch and it was about five o'clock. The mission time was officially over at five o'clock. It was obviously over. After the mission was over, the Hei Family Army who was carrying out the mission would return to the underground hiding room.
In recent years, there are hundreds of these small basements in the capital city, divided into areas, five people in groups, five groups in groups, and five groups in groups. All of them are divided into locations, and five people in basements. If anyone of these five people is captured, they will immediately contact the team leader and replace it with a new basement.
I don’t know what the result of this battle was, but his record tonight was still good. Thirty-three people were killed at his hands and saved five Black Family Army who were in desperate situations. It was enough!
After this mission, it will be temporarily suspended. There are medicines and food in the basement, which is enough for them to stay for a month. If there is no next task arrangement, they will start to find ways to leave the city within a month, and the second phase of the strategic task will be officially completed.
I have been preparing for so long just for these two hours tonight, but Bai Jingqi knew that what happened in these two hours would definitely be recorded in history books decades later. I am now creating history.
Bai Jingqi returned to the underground command room. It was already six o'clock in the morning. He simply wiped his face and did not rest. He was waiting for the teams to report on the performance and the situation in the city.
This will determine the next plan. He ate a piece of bread and slowly finished a cup of tea. At the long table, several combat staff members were obviously not in the mood to drink tea. He was nervously writing and drawing on the map and recording the situation.
Until eight o'clock in the morning, through special channels, news gathered one after another in the command room. Bai Jingqi looked at the reports one after another, and the sad face between her eyebrows did not dissipate.
His sadness was not because of the failure of this plan, but the three-point plan was implemented very successfully, exceeding his expectations.
This time, the coalition forces are expected to suffer more than 4,000 casualties, including nearly 150 officers of various types. Currently, there are less than 20,000 foreign soldiers in the capital. Such military achievements are enough to shock the whole world.
His sad expression was that the casualties were too great this time. There were less than 300 people who returned to the basement, most of whom were injured.
There were less than fifty people intact, and a group of wounded people were probably killed in the end. The medicines in the basement were not enough to treat the fatal injuries. This loss was too great for the Hei Family Army.
What Bai Jingqi didn't know was that the attack of the Hei Family Army completely shocked the entire coalition. At this moment, the coalition forces of various countries on the ground were gathering forces frantically.
This night was a nightmare for the entire coalition. The soldiers in the barracks were destroyed by explosives and even machine guns.
In the streets and alleys, without any precautions, daggers cut their throats, and some owners in the tavern had already put medicine in the wine. More than a dozen soldiers watched their comrades cut their throats by a knife. This memory was too tragic.
Everyone who attacked them was desperate and desperate. Their shooting skills and combat experience were no less than that of them. Even close combat, the thin figure of the other party could even fight against three. They were filled with endless dangers. All this was too sudden and the chaos continued until dawn.
This night was also an unforgettable night for the people of the entire capital. Although they closed the doors, the gunshots and explosions outside the house began to ring from midnight until dawn.
After dawn, they carefully opened the door and saw countless foreign devils standing upside down on the street. They were in a very complicated mood. They were both nervous and excited, and all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky.
The coalition soon began to implement a comprehensive blockade of the capital. Now they have completely sobered up, and they dare not leave alone. All teams have begun to occupy various streets. Under the orders of the senior management, they have begun to conduct carpet-style searches of key areas.
However, they obviously looked at the Hei Family Army less. The Hei Family Army that had been deployed for several years was not so easy to be found. Of course, some Hei Family Army teams found some groups along the bloodstains. In the end, the scattered gunfire and resistance were quickly calmed down.
On the 18th, there were panic in the capital, and the casualties of the coalition were too heavy. Among them, the 53 teams of Italy were slaughtered, leaving only three pretending to be dead and avoiding the disaster.
France was the most miserable. At that time, the Hei Family Army, who received the task of targeted removal, attacked the command center under the control of the French army. Since most of the French army looted outside, there were only more than 80 guards and fifty designated removal personnel, and began to eliminate the French army in the base at a certain point. The French army's highest commander, Lieutenant General Fury, was shot and became the highest commander of the coalition's casualties. The top leaders of the French army were slaughtered cleanly.
Other coalition commands also suffered heavy casualties, with middle and high-level personnel losing more than 150 people, and the total casualties exceeded 4,300. The coalition forces in the entire capital suffered nearly 30% of their staff.
In fact, the British army suffered the most heavy losses this time, with nearly a thousand casualties, including nearly a hundred second Japanese devils from the Huayong Camp. The Hei Family Army was particularly fierce in attacking these two Japanese devils and placed several TNT explosive packs in their battalion headquarters. The explosion that Bai Jingqi heard at that time came from this.
The coalition was able to suffer such great casualties this time, and TNT explosives made an indelible contribution. In fact, long before the coalition entered the city, the combat staff of the Hei Family Army could have guessed where they finally stationed the army, and thus had already arranged personnel and explosives in those places. This time, the coalition casualties accounted for 70%.
However, the Hei Family Army suffered a great loss. Among them, the 300 Hei Family Army participated in the designated removal mission, lost more than 80%, and less than fifty people left alive. In the end, everyone was injured. Their retreat route had been planned, and even more than a dozen machine guns were arranged on the retreat route, which also harvested hundreds of coalition forces.
However, the coalition forces counterattacked very quickly. They even attacked the machine gun points of the Hei Family Army without hesitation of artillery fire, completely destroying the retreat route of the Hei Family Army.
Bai Jingqi did not expect that the Hei Family Army suffered such heavy casualties. The number of casualties in this plan was about 30%, and it was planned to eliminate about 1,000 coalition forces.
But I never expected that this time the game was too big, but the matter had already happened. At this moment, he had to deal with the aftermath. The coalition forces suffered such great casualties, so they would definitely conduct a carpet-style search on it next.
The plan could not keep up with the changes. Originally, he wanted to let everyone hide in the capital for a while, then carry out a small-scale attack, waiting for the situation to stabilize, and then find a way to rescue these people from the capital. However, now, the majority of the injured are so heavy, and the casualties are so heavy, the coalition forces will definitely be prepared for another action, and the next action is no longer of great significance.
Now he must rescue the remaining Hei Family Army from the capital alive. In the humid and stuffy basement, the injured people couldn't last long.
At this time, the arrangements of the Hei Family Army in the capital over the years have been truly utilized, and the seeds sowed out in those years have officially begun. A large number of peripheral members of the Hei Family Army, and countless gangs in the capital have received notices to assist the injured Hei Family Army in escaping from the capital.
At this moment, the gangs in the capital finally understood that the big thing that happened last night was done by the Hei Family Army, killing thousands of foreign devils. As long as a Chinese person had such a record, he would feel excited, let alone these all the religions and all the worlds who have been in the world for many years.
People say that rats have rat paths, and more than two or three hundred wounded people are transported out of the city. This is not a difficult task for these people. While the coalition forces were still counting the number of wounded people and planning a search plan, countless people began to act that night.
Late at night on the 18th, the Hei Family Army began to be secretly transported out of the city from various secret passages and city walls. Some people even hid in the toilet by taking advantage of the opportunity to overturn the toilet and were smuggled out of the city. After a night, there were only less than fifty members of the Hei Family Army in the entire capital. These people were intact and would lurk in a wait for the next instructions.
At this moment, in the command center of the little Japanese, the Japanese Army General Sushi Yamaguchi tied gauze on his hand and listened to the report of the subordinates in the conference room with a serious expression.
In this attack, the little Japanese were injured and killed nearly 500 people. Compared with the 8,000 people sent by the little Japanese this time, the proportion of the little Japanese was not high.
As for the reason, it was because after the little Japanese army entered Beijing, they began to quickly occupy some important yamen and grain warehouses, even money warehouses, academies and residential warehouses of some wealthy families.
They have great ambitions. They want to get everything from China, no matter what it is, so the army is very scattered, and the discipline of the little Japanese army is better than that of other armies, so their casualties were not severe in this attack.
However, the nearly 500 casualties still made the little Wozi feel sad. Faced with hundreds of thousands of Boxer Rebellion and Qing soldiers, they all suffered only two or three hundred casualties. This sudden two-hour attack resulted in nearly 500 casualties, which was a shame for the little Wozi!
The little Japanese have another advantage, that is, knowing shame and then being brave. Learning from the strengths of the enemy is the tradition of the little Japanese.
The attack of the Hei Family Army deeply shocked the senior management of the little Japanese. In particular, Sushi Yamaguchi is a general in charge of the army. He never expected that an army could launch an attack like this, or even have such superb assassination skills. The most important thing is the Chinese.
At this moment, on the table in the conference room, there were the Hei Family Army's sting daggers, pistols, machine guns, and even explosives. There were eleven scarred Hei Family Army locked up in the interrogation room in their military camp. They wanted to find out what the mysterious Hei Family Army came from.
Little Wozi is familiar with the Hei Family Army. They had already fought with the Hei Family Army during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 a few years ago. At that time, a major general was lost and more than 300 people, and now the casualties are even more severe.
In just over five years, this army called the Hei Family Army has obviously grown into a man-eating tiger. The damage of the coalition forces this time shocked the whole world. Now foreign news media have begun to report it.
This matter is still fermenting and is far from reaching the top. The outside world is not very clear about the inside story of this attack. In the news reports, there are only a large number of casualties. When the real inside story breaks out, it will really detonate the entire world.
At this moment, the senior government officials of the great powers of various countries probably already knew the casualties of their own troops, and they were obviously shocked. It is estimated that every country is crazily collecting news about the Black Family Army, and the little Japanese are no exception.
Sumon Yamaguchi reported the news and information about the Hei Family Army to the country as soon as possible. Now more professional troops have been sent to China to conduct investigations of the Hei Family Army.
At this moment, Yamaguchi Sumo had a calm face. After listening to the weapons experts report on the weapons situation of the Hei Family Army. These weapons were not produced by any country. Moreover, from the weapons collected, it can be seen that the Hei Family Army must have a professional military factory and the quality of the weapons produced is no less than that of the little Japanese. This Hei Family Army is obviously not a small-scale military organization.
Yamaguchi Sushen picked up the dagger and stabbed on the table. There was a trace of black blood on the special notch. He slowly touched the blade on it. At this moment, an indescribable chill suddenly popped out of his heart. He seemed to see his soldier being stabbed into his heart by the stabbing and finally pulled out, and a large amount of blood rushing out!
Yamaguchi Sushen put down the sect and suddenly shouted to the officer in the conference room seriously.
"All the exits in the capital are blocked completely and search for all the injured Hei Family Army. This time we must capture all the Hei Family Army in the capital. I will go to the coalition command now and ask all countries to act together. I have a premonition that the Hei Family Army will be the biggest enemy of our Great Japanese Empire in the future, and we must eliminate them in the bud!"
All the little Japanese officers below stood up together, bent down and nodded.
Chapter completed!
