Chapter 465: The Battle Between China and Japan (4)
Haribai led 7,000 troops to the hills next to Wonsan Castle. While he ordered people to set up artillery and dig trenches, he also ordered people to cut down trees and build simple ladders.
Until the artillerymen untied all the hundreds of artillery pieces and tied the pack horses to the mountains and forests, until the infantry tied up hundreds of ladders, until the fifty skyscrapers were filled with heat and slowly flew into the sky...
…
He just gave the order to bombard Wonsan Castle!
In an instant, hundreds of artillery shells accurately landed in the city. At this time, the Japanese defenders suddenly realized that their back and abdomen were suddenly attacked by the enemy! They quickly shouted, gathered their troops, and ran out.
They entered the houses they occupied, picked up muskets, and turned the muzzles of the artillery. But when they saw clearly that the enemy was three miles away from them, they all froze.
In situ...
"This... this Liang Guo's artillery! It hit twice as far as us!! Sir General!! How can we fight this battle!??" A commander shouted this with an expression of disbelief.
His last words...because the next second, his head was cut off by the angry guard!
"Anyone who messes up the morale of the army again! A person like this——!!!" Masanori Fukushima raised the head high and shouted at the soldiers on the wall: "Get off the wall——!!
Second division, third division, go out of the north gate! Directly attack the left wing of the enemy's camp! Fourth division, fifth division! Go out of the south gate! Side attack the right wing of the enemy's formation!! The remaining divisions!! Follow our general out of the west gate! Go straight to the enemy camp——!
!!”
"Hi!!"
"Understood! General!!"
"Fourth, fifth, follow me——!!!"

After a commotion, the city gates on three sides were slowly opened! But when these squadrons commanded the troops to start to assemble, they were surprised to find that Liang Guo's artillery became more and more accurate! The more he rallied, the cannonballs started to have eyes.
Usually, they are targeted at densely populated areas! In the blink of an eye, the troops that had just been assembled suffered numerous casualties and became a mess!
"Don't mess around -!!! Line up -!! Line up -!!"
"Bangtou!! Stop lining up!! The more concentrated you are, the more people will die!! Just charge straight away!!"
"Why!! Why do these cannonballs fall so accurately!!"
Located at the north gate, the feeble shouts of the commander-in-chief, who was preparing to lead the troops to attack, faintly reached the air...
"What are these Japanese people chattering about down there?" A Xingtian camp soldier murmured with a smile while holding a telescope in the air for observation.
Another flag soldier shouted impatiently: "Why do you care so much about him? Hurry up and report your position! Our flags are waiting for you down there!"
"Hey! Hey! Okay...notify the third group, move two inches to the north! Extend it to the east for twenty miles!"
The soldiers used binoculars to observe the impact point of the shells, while looking for the corners where the Japanese were most densely populated, and shouted loudly.
The flag commander immediately raised the colorful flag and waved the semaphore at the artillery camp in the distance!
"Two inches to the north!! Twenty miles to the east!!" The messenger of the three artillery battalions put down the telescope in his hand and shouted loudly. The three groups of artillery he belonged to immediately began to adjust the muzzle and reload!
Such efficient air-ground cooperation has gradually formed a tradition in the Tongshun Army. Before each artillery bombardment, the flying sky will be released first to continuously transmit information to the ground to adjust the bombardment direction. This not only greatly reduces the loss of artillery shells, but also
More enemy troops will be killed in a shorter period of time, which is why it is necessary to group artillery battalions and draw their respective areas in advance before bombardment.
It’s all about efficiency…
The efficiency of killing enemies...
Finally, the commanders and generals in the city completely gave up their plan to form a formation, and directly waved their samurai swords, ordering the group of lightfoots holding fire guns to rush towards Liang Guo's position in scattered pieces. However, this behavior
By chance, a sparse formation was formed, which greatly reduced casualties, but at the same time, it also prevented the fire gun troops from carrying out intensive shooting, completely eliminating their already low hit rate... 81Zw.????

"Qianhu, the Japanese pirates are out at the north gate! Should we fight?"
"Let's play a ball. Is it called an ambush now? Don't worry, the general can handle it himself!"
While the two officers of the ambush force were discussing, the main camp in Haribai had been equipped with lime bombs, and a large amount of white death mist was poured on the Japanese pirates...
"Look, don't we all live now? Let's just wait and fight the remnants of the army..." Qianhu, who was responsible for the ambush, turned over and lay on his back on the hill, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, humming
I played a hometown ditty...
But the Japanese pirates are obviously not so comfortable...
"Ah——!!! What is this!!! General!!! My eyes!!! My eyes!!!"
"Poisonous fog!!! This is poisonous fog!! Don't go any further!! Retreat!! Retreat to the city——!!!"
Fukushima Masanori helplessly shouted the order to retreat, but soon he found that the white mist he had sucked into his throat began to violently burn his throat, and he stopped shouting instantly, and he could not even breathe normally.
, scratching his throat, slowly fell into the hell of artillery fire.
"The general is dead! The general is dead——!!"
"Retreat!! Take up the general and retreat——!!! Ugh——! Ugh!! Ugh!!"
Countless soldiers who were agitated and shouted loudly also inhaled lime. Under the burning pain, they lay on the ground shaking and twitching violently. This sad scene also made the peasant soldiers who were already low in fighting spirit
He completely lost his mind and fled in any direction for a while, just to get away from this wasteland that was at the mercy of others as soon as possible...
"Infantry, mount your bayonet... carry the ladder up to the city wall and go shooting... Oh, by the way, remember what the commander told you, don't take any prisoners, kill them all!" After Harry gave the order, he stood up, shook, and murmured in a low voice.
After saying "It's so cold...", he turned around and returned to the temporary tent.
As for his group of soldiers who had never had the chance to practice the new weapons since they got them, they were obviously not as calm as him. They all took off the rifles on their backs and happily installed brand new bayonets.
, and got a touch of satisfaction in the crisp "click" sound...
"Taite is so exquisite... my nose is a little sore..."
"No! This guy is many times stronger than the broken bow and broken sword we had before!"
“I’ve long wanted to go to the battlefield to test this guy’s power!! I’ve been waiting for today!!”
"Go ahead——!!"
“Kill——!!!”
"Damn!! Qianhu!! Kunzi Camp and Haizi Camp have already rushed over!! Let's go too! If we get there late, everyone will be robbed!"
"Go, go, remember to stab all the dead bodies on the battlefield first! I don't want to see you come back without one or two!"
"Okay!!"
"Go ahead——!!"
"kill--!!!"

Zhang Jiajun...
A miscellaneous army was temporarily formed by the Ministry of War of Liang State on the border. The main members of the army were basically poor local people. They could not read a few Chinese characters, but they were burdened with the hatred of the country and the family and joined the army angrily. However, because they had no backers, they
There was a lack of training, so in terms of armament, they could only pick up the remnants of the regular army, using either bows with their skin peeled off, or swords with loose handles.
But now, everything has changed since I joined the Tongshun Army...
These sophisticated weapons and equipment not only dazzled them, but also reminded them of the bitter years of the past. They couldn't help but feel blood rushing to the top of their heads and were extremely excited.
Although the Zhang Jiajun's performance in this battle was remarkable, not looking like a ragtag army at all, and showing amazing combat effectiveness, their usual lack of discipline and lack of control were undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
