Even if the actual number of the Co-Prosperity Army far exceeds that of the Shanshan Guard Cavalry, it still has no effect.
When the Shanshan Guard cavalry charged, many Co-Prosperity Army soldiers were shot and killed first. When the Shanshan Guards rushed in front of them, they staged a scene of overwhelming defeat.
Everyone knows that at high speeds and without formation defense, once the high-speed cavalry rushes in front of them, it will cause huge damage. It is simply beyond the reach of human power. In this situation
In such a situation, the only thing they can do is to escape.
As long as you escape faster than the people around you, you have hope and opportunity to survive.
There is only one life. In line with the idea that a dead Taoist friend will not die a poor Taoist, everyone is running away frantically, which makes the situation of the Co-Prosperity Army even worse. When no one wants to resist, Shake the Mountain
The guards came with an invincible momentum, chasing after the enemies and constantly taking their lives.
When the captain of the Five Thousand Captain just arrived and wanted to ask about the situation, he saw this scene. When he saw that the situation was over, he did not dare to think about anything else. He turned around and ran away. He did not forget himself.
To comfort him, he was not timid, but wanted to inform General Kunimura Haru about the news.
In fact, the political situation in Guocun at this time was not much better. Just after the captain of the five thousand men came to report that there were many cavalry in the rear, news soon came from the front that the Great Chinese Army was
The infantry actually launched a counterattack.
How dare the Dahua Army fight back?
This was really beyond Kunimuraji's expectation.
On the battlefield, the side with more people will always attack the side with fewer people. As the latter, they can only defend and hope for a miracle. How can the side with fewer people take the initiative to attack?
Kunimuraji thought that either he had heard wrongly or that the Dahua army must have gone crazy.
As soon as this idea appeared, commotions broke out on the left and right sides of his army. It turned out that the 10,000 Shanshan Guards hidden on both sides of them finally attacked, using the cover of the night.
, they quietly came to both sides of the Communist Army, and then suddenly appeared, catching the enemy by surprise.
The Chinese army launched a counterattack from the front, middle and rear directions. This large-scale and orderly counterattack directly cut the 120,000 Co-Prosperity Army into several sections. Unprepared, they were instantly internal.
Big chaos.
Many members of the Communist Army were overwhelmed by the chaos in front of them. Even if they wanted to resist, they didn't know what to do.
Under such a situation, Kunimuraji listened to the news from all sides in the Chinese army, and cold sweat began to flow down his cheeks. He knew that this time he might have fallen into the trap of the Chinese army.
, after the front army, middle army, and rear army were attacked respectively, the army was in chaos. At this time, government orders could not be issued smoothly, and it was impossible to organize a decent resistance. It was already beyond hope.
"well!"
After letting out a heavy sigh, Kunimuraji glanced at the generals around him and said, "Go ahead. Before the Great Chinese Army has completed the encirclement, you can escape if you can."
"General, please come with us." Several generals heard something and said with some concern. "It's useless. So many troops were lost this time. Someone must be responsible. Rather than go back and be punished.
, it is better to die here, at least you can leave a good name." Kunimuraji shook his head. At this time, the spirit of Bushido had just appeared in Japan, but there was no such thing as suicide by caesarean section. Otherwise, I'm afraid it would be
He is now ready to commit suicide to thank the world.
Japan's military regulations are still very strict. If you lose a battle, as a commanding general, you have to bear a great responsibility. Everyone knows this and understands that even if Kunimuraji can escape back, he will still be beheaded.
, and it will also affect the living family members, it is better to die on the battlefield, at least the family can be saved.
Everyone knew this truth, and no one tried to dissuade him. After bowing their heads to Kunimuraji, the generals strode away from here, and started to break out with their own soldiers. But here he was just
Only dozens of Kunimuraji's soldiers were left behind.
The fate of the soldiers and the general has been tied together for a long time. They will both be prosperous and suffer losses. These soldiers also understand that since the general cannot leave, they have no choice but to fight. Throwing their lives here is their fate.
"Come on, Japan's most heroic warriors, let's fight out together. We want the Chinese army to see that we Japanese people are not greedy for life and fear of death." It seemed to be cheering up the soldiers, but also seemed to be encouraging.
As if to cheer himself up, after saying these words, Kunimuraji pulled out the Japanese sword on his body and led a group of people to kill into the chaotic battlefield.
On the frontal battlefield, Shen Ping'an, Sun Fuhu, Zhou Qian and other military chiefs personally went to the front line, took out their weapons and led their men to cover up the Co-Prosperity Army.
At the beginning, the Co-Prosperity Army still had some fighting will, and it was difficult for the 50,000 infantry to advance. But with the appearance of the Shanshan Guard cavalry in the rear and on the left and right wings, the Co-Prosperity Army's formation was in chaos. At this time, the front battlefield
The Co-Prosperity Army above also lacked confidence. When faced with the infantry of the Chinese Army again, they could only retreat and had no power to fight back.
"It's done! Kill!" Looking at everything in front of him, Sun Fuhu was overjoyed. After shouting loudly, he was the first to rush out with tens of thousands of brothers from the Guiyi Army.
With the Guiyi Army taking the lead, more and more Dahua Army infantry followed, forming a torrent and chasing down the already defeated Gongrong Army.
Although it is true that the Co-Prosperity Army has undergone certain military training, their foundation is still very weak. When fighting a smooth battle, they can persist for a while with various stimulations, but when the advantage is no longer there, they perform very badly.
.
Facing the powerful Chinese army coming from all directions, most people threw away their weapons and chose to surrender. As for the Communist Army who had surrendered to the Japanese, they no longer knew where they had left their dignity. Now,
It's just another surrender. For many people, not only do they not feel any pressure at all, but they become more familiar with the road.
As a result, wherever the Chinese army went, they often didn't have to do anything. There were prisoners everywhere waiting for them to catch and receive them. There were often a small number of Japanese soldiers who still wanted to resist, but
In front of the Chinese army, which was many times their number, they could no longer afford to make any waste.
Even Kunimuraji himself, with dozens of his own soldiers, was in the chaos and was surrounded by a company of Shanshan Guards cavalry. Then the war horses galloped past, and the short-legged Kunimuraji only shot two
The knife blocked a blow and was hit by the fierce charge of the horse. Bright silver bullet holes appeared on his body, and he fell to the ground dead with blood flowing down.
Siluke
It seems that in such a melee, the role that an individual can play is always very limited. It is even more impossible to say that one person can turn the entire war situation around. It is like the rule of Kunimura, where one person died on the battlefield without killing anyone.
Even when he died, the Mount-shaking cavalryman who killed him didn't know that he had just killed the enemy's general, because at this time he was still galloping on his horse, still looking for the next one to kill.
goals and enemies.
Kunimura Haru was dead, and the Koei Army had no one to command them even if they wanted to form a joint force. More than two hours later, when it was daylight, the battle situation was decided.
That night, the number of dead and wounded of the Communist Army reached nearly 30,000, and about 80,000 were captured. Less than 10,000 people took advantage of the darkness and chaos to escape.
Those who escaped were mainly Japanese soldiers. When they fled all the way and met the Daimyo Ikeuchi who was coming here, they quickly informed him of the defeat of the army. Ikeuchi was almost furious on the spot.
Not a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
I originally thought that when I appeared on the battlefield, the Japanese army won the victory and entered Zhangcheng. How could I have imagined that there was still such a long distance, and I got the bad news of the army's defeat?
I don't know how many times I scolded Kunimuraji in my heart. After his mood stabilized a little, Ikeuchi retreated with 50,000 rear troops. The 300,000-strong army dropped nearly 200,000, but they were unable to break through the eastern camp of Zhangcheng.
, so with the more than 50,000 people in his hands, how is it different from charging to death?
Ikeuchi withdrew in a very unloyal manner, or it could be said to be a helpless move. A defeat is a defeat. No matter who is blamed, it is impossible to reverse this reality.
After the time went back three hours ago, Xu Kun, the commander-in-chief of the Xiangzhou Army on the Western Front, sent out many scouts, who had been paying attention to the war, waiting for the best opportunity to enter.
Even the 120,000-strong Xishu Army was already prepared, with armor on their bodies and knives in their hands. They were just waiting for an order to launch a full-scale charge. But at this moment, a piece of news suddenly came
, the Dahua Army actually counterattacked.
The Great Chinese Army suddenly had a large number of cavalry at some point. They rushed out like a flood, encircling and cutting the 120,000 Communist Army.
The 120,000 seemingly ferocious Communist Army were completely wiped out in the cut, with less than one out of ten survivors.
When the news reached Xu Kun's ears, his eyes almost popped out of his head. At this time, the Chinese army and cavalry were not used. This result is too terrible to think about?
Including himself, everyone thought that the Great Chinese Army was not strong this time. No matter how capable they were, the lack of troops was ultimately their biggest weakness. Just like during the battle two days ago, the Great Chinese Army seemed to be in a precarious state.
Looks like I can't stand it.
But who could have known that they still had cavalry that was not put to use? It was not until this time when the Japanese army wanted to launch a general attack at night that they used a trump card and defeated the unprepared Japanese army with one blow.
Defeated and completely turned the tide of the battle?
