Chapter 290 Don’t Demonize Me(1/3)
The Japanese soldier has a blood spot on his forehead.
Zhao Chuanxin put away his gun and looked up. There were many Japanese troops gathered in front of him. They did not notice the situation here.
This should be the reserve force of the Japanese army.
Because this Japanese soldier was at the end of the team, and Zhao Chuanxin made his move quietly, no one noticed anything unusual here.
He took out two Krupp field cannons from the secret place and pointed the muzzles forward with a grin.
It is a pity that the ammunition for his Maxim heavy machine gun and Madsen light machine gun were used up while in South Korea.
Otherwise, the effect of using heavy machine guns here will definitely be better than artillery.
After he set up the artillery, someone among the Japanese troops in front finally spotted him.
The Japanese soldier stood up from the ground: "Hey, what are you doing? How can the gun be pointed at one of our own people?"
This voice alerted the surrounding Japanese troops.
Everyone turned their heads in shock and looked at Zhao Chuanxin and the two artillery pieces.
Zhao Chuanxin waved his hands towards them and shouted enthusiastically: "Damn it, Sayounala!"
A group of Japanese soldiers listened to the Japanese in confusion.
Then,
Boom...
Boom...
Kijiro Saito, who was conducting in the middle section, suddenly turned around.
Shinoda Harice was shocked and said: "Wu Luzhen took action?"
Saito Kijiro immediately took out his binoculars and looked back.
"No, there is no large group of people behind."
This was puzzling to him because he didn't see the enemy.
In the smoke of gunpowder, there are the remains of broken arms of our own people, and soldiers running around and fleeing.
"Come here, go to the rear and see what's going on? Did the artillery misfire? Or did the artillery explode?"
Only in this way can such a big noise be made without enemies.
In the hearts of the Japanese, who pride themselves on being meticulous and cautious, this kind of mistake is regrettable and unforgivable, especially during wartime.
Saito Kijiro looked at the battlefield ahead and the commotion behind him, wishing that the soldiers who made the mistake would commit seppuku.
But before the soldiers could go to the back to investigate, two more cannons rang out.
The first shell was still blooming in the rear, but this time it was very close to Saito Kijiro.
Shinoda Harice was shocked: "No, it's not an explosion or a misfire, there is an enemy!"
Needless to say, Saito Kijiro also noticed it.
At the same time, on the northwest hillside, the Japanese offensive was attacked from the side.
Not to mention how many people were lost, but the rhythm of the attack was disrupted.
Kijiro Saito finally couldn't sit still anymore. Through his binoculars, he saw soldiers half wearing white shorts and half wearing dark blue military uniforms, launching a fierce attack on the Japanese flank on the hillside.
There are not many people, but they fight very bravely.
Kijiro Saito looked at the two colors of military uniforms and immediately thought of who these people were.
"Rebels? No, this is the God of War team!"
The God of War team formed by the town guards and bodyguards that were disbanded by Ito Hirobumi in the Korean Empire was dressed like this.
When Shinoda Haruse heard that the God of War team had arrived here, his eyes widened and he said: "Impossible, they can't cross the border quietly and arrive here."
However, this is not the time to delve into how the Ares team arrived.
Because of the continuous sound of artillery fire from the rear, the Japanese army's flanks were attacked, and the front army fought against the backing army.
Even if Nogi Nogi, who is hailed as the God of War by the Japanese because of his bad feet, is here, he has to kneel down in the face of threats from three parties!
Shinoda Harise may be able to provide advice on strategy, but he is blind in tactics.
Saito Kijiro knew that he could only rely on himself. The lightning flashed in his mind: If he retreated, the rear would be in chaos. If he resisted the Ares team on the flanks with all his strength, he would be attacked from both front and rear. If he moved forward...
He actually only has two choices, forward or backward.
The Japanese were addicted to gambling. Saito Kijiro gritted his teeth, pulled out his command sword and pointed at the sky: "The enemy army has run out of ammunition and food, leaving a small group to cut off the rear. The rest have bayonets on, and the whole army will charge with me!"
In order to boost morale, he took the lead and rushed to the front.
……
Liu Yonghe discovered that the Japanese flank was being attacked by surprise, and Zhang Er was confused by the sudden chaos in the rear of the Japanese army.
Ge Yunpeng asked: "Batalion Commander, did Wu Luzhen join the war?"
"Impossible. I know the Qing court too well. They would never have the courage to provoke the Japanese. Even if the Japanese stretched out their hands, Cixi and the others would put their faces up and wait for a slap."
Ge Yunpeng was speechless: Look at the battalion commander's mouth, he is no worse than Captain Zhao.
At this time, the Japanese suddenly fixed their bayonets and charged like crazy.
They don't care about the enemies on their flanks or the chaos in the rear. They don't care about their fallen comrades beside them, but only the rebels in front.
Liu Yonghe was not surprised but overjoyed: "The little devil has charged, the whole army will follow me to the fourth line of defense!"
The situation on the battlefield has become delicate.
Wu Luzhen and Chen Zhaochang, who were watching the battle from a distance, felt their bodies tense up.
Although they are staying out of this war, this battle is crucial to the overall situation.
If the Japanese win, according to their virtue, they will definitely make further progress.
If the Japanese lose the war, the issue of the island can really be brought to the negotiating table.
Originally, the two of them had no hope of betraying the navy, but now Zhao Chuanxin is back!
Chen Zhaochang was a little confused and asked eagerly: "What are the Japanese troops doing?"
Wu Luzhen did not put down the telescope and answered: "Zhao Chuanxin didn't know what method he used to fire a cannon in the rear of the Japanese army, causing chaos in the rear of the Japanese army. I think Saito Kishijiro wanted to take a gamble and bet that the navy would run out of ammunition."
We are running out of food and prepare to capture Laoyinggou in one go. Although there will be heavy casualties, the crisis on the flanks and rear will be eliminated."
To be able to serve as a military counselor, Wu Luzhen has real talent and learning.
He has a very accurate grasp of the battlefield situation and Saito Kijiro's psychology.
"Then who will win?" Chen Zhaochang asked quickly.
"Zhao Chuanxin only has one man, and he has the flexibility and maneuverability of an artilleryman. So I analyze that this battle depends on whether the backing army can withstand the Japanese army's sudden charge. If it can withstand the Japanese army, it will collapse, but if it cannot withstand it, it will collapse.
Saito Kijiro won the bet."
"Then can the backwater army withstand it?"
"Hand-to-hand combat?" Wu Luzhen's face showed bitterness: "Even Tsarist Russia is no match, what do you think?"

However, suddenly there were two more cannon shots.
Chen Zhaochang pointed to the rear of the battlefield: "You said that Zhao Chuanxin was not flexible. Look over there. Every time the artillery shell explodes, the distance will be farther. It can hit the Japanese army every time. How do you say this?"
Wu Luzhen's telescope has been staring at the battlefield ahead, because he feels that the battlefield ahead is the key.
After listening to Chen Zhaochang's words, he moved the telescope to the back.
Then he opened his mouth wide: "This... this is impossible!"
Boom...
Boom...
Not only Wu Luzhen and Chen Zhaochang were puzzled, but the team left behind by the Japanese army was also confused.
Even the veterans with the most combat experience in the Japanese army have never experienced this when faced with the same crazy Tsarist Russian soldiers.
Because each shell strikes as accurately as the best rifle.
How the hell is this possible?
"Second Lieutenant, how can that man's artillery fire be as accurate as a rifle?"
The captain of the Japanese team felt numb: "As far as I know, there is only one person who can do this."
"Second Lieutenant, who is it?"
"Zhao, Chuan, Xin!"
The Japanese second lieutenant said that the man behind him was Zhao Chuanxin, and the Japanese soldiers around him turned pale after hearing this.
"Zhaophobia" followed South Korea and spread all the way to the Japanese military camps in the Qing Dynasty.
