Chapter 259: Decisive Charge!

"A general?"

Yang Hao's heart moved, took the sword and looked carefully, and saw a chrysanthemum badge with the Japanese royal logo printed on it. Although he didn't know much about it, he also knew that this thing must be something that ordinary people could have.

Huang Lebo's back teeth were almost exposed with laughter: "The insurance is right! You will understand it when you get his body out later."

Yang Hao could not wait for him to get someone out. He rushed in a few steps and saw the temple hall that was smashed by artillery shells, lying all over the bodies of Japanese officers. The soldiers under Huang Lebo were catching the time to search for spoils and harvest the heads.

In the middle of a bunch of people, an incomplete body was twisted and skewed on the ground. The blood on the head seemed to be cut off by a shell, and the brain was flowing out.

Judging from his beard and figure, he is not young. The most conspicuous military uniform shines, and it is obvious that a general can never make a fake.

Yang Hao couldn't hide his excitement, and clenched his fists and waved hard: "Beautiful job! This is the commander with the highest rank of the Japanese army to kill since the battle. I don't know how much shock it can bring to the Japanese! Come on, drag his body back, I want the whole world to know your achievements!"

"Okay!" Huang Lebo and a group of soldiers screamed excitedly, took off the bed board with all their strength, tied the body up, and then used a platoon of troops to escort it to the rear.

Yang Hao guessed that this person was most likely the commander of the Japanese First Brigade, Nogi Haki, and only such a madman would make the Japanese army in this era rush to the machine gun and cannon positions regardless of casualties. It was obvious that this place might have been threatened with artillery bombardment, but he still insisted on regressing, so it would be no wonder that he would be killed by himself.

Looking around the broken hall, various documents and instruments were torn to pieces by explosions and scattered all over the floor. Among the officers of at least twenty people, there was at least a captain. It was obvious that the entire brigade headquarters was taken down in one fell swoop.

This means that the Japanese army had no idea about artillery fire that transcends the times. They thought that they could easily avoid attacks when they were far away and hidden under the package of multiple buildings. However, they did not know that large-caliber mortars could attack the top from a high place and a large angle, and the power of the explosion was by no means comparable to the army's black fire-medicine cannons.

"I believe that after this war, the military equipment around the world will undergo a sharp upgrade."

Yang Hao knew very well that although his automatic weapons had not flowed out, his performance in the battle could not be hidden. The great powers could definitely get all kinds of information from the Japanese army. At that time, they could follow the map and ensure that the research equipment of the rapid-fire guns and machine guns would be greatly accelerated. The revival of grenades will become inevitable, and it is only a matter of time before the mortars are produced.

As expected, in the next big war, there will inevitably be barbed wire, trenches, machine guns, grenades, mines, and mortars. This is almost the rhythm of entering the first battle ahead of schedule.

The soldiers stepped up the cleaning of the battlefield and took away all the information, including the secret codebook that the Japanese army had not had time to burn. From the ruins, you can see countless Japanese soldiers rushing towards this side from the east and south directions from afar!

Yang Hao sneered: "The brigade headquarters was taken down, and the Japanese army will definitely counterattack wildly, but it is too late to seek reinforcements now!"

The artillery attacks for several consecutive days caused the Japanese troops to be severely dispersed. The 15th Regiment avoided nearly ten kilometers east to set up a camp; the remaining soldiers of the First Regiment were scattered around and had just been defeated by counterattacks, making it difficult to form an effective synthetic blockade. This led to the brief isolation of the brigade headquarters.

At five kilometers, it took twenty minutes for the exhausted Japanese army to run over with their energy, which was enough for Yang Hao to clean up the surroundings and bring people back calmly.

It is a wise move to stop when you see it is good. The entire camp retreated without hesitation and returned to the position smoothly at dawn.

At seven o'clock in the morning, two other raid troops returned one after another. Yang Hao rushed over to inspect the situation and found that the casualties of his side were extremely minor, but the results achieved were quite large!

Shi Jianfei led his army to attack for the first time, and it was the first time that he had truly applied his learned skills in actual combat. He was as happy as a fish in water, as if he was using his fingers. Although it was just a small test, the battalion of troops he led still sharply cut through the Japanese army's rear formation, completely defeating the incomplete enemy army of a regiment, and killing two majors.

Seeing Yang Hao coming, he took off his hot helmet and said excitedly: "It's so satisfying! If there are three regiments in a complete system today, we can completely annihilate the more than 20,000 Japanese troops in one fell swoop!"

Yang Hao laughed and said, "The future is long, so don't rush for a moment. Let's lay a solid foundation first, and then burn the war to Japan. Some of them will be big battles. Now let's plan how to deal with the Japanese counterattack. The damage we caused this time is quite serious!"

Shi Jianfei nodded cautiously: "If you kill a major general, the Japanese army will definitely go crazy. However, with their current abilities, at most, they will be able to break him up in one breath and immediately collapse."

"So, you must not relax in the next period of time. Especially since the Qing army has not undergone rigorous training, if you are careless and the Japanese army seize the loophole, there will be big problems."

Yang Hao knew very well that their conduct was mostly just temporary recruitment of strong men. How much fighting will do you expect them to have? It would be a blessing to follow the battle without causing trouble. Now I am afraid that I will be happy when I see the results of the battle, and I will all be relieved and start planning the way out.

But the results of the battle cannot be hidden. When Xu Bangdao and Lian Shun suddenly heard that Yang Hao actually brought people to fight back, killing one major general who commanded ten thousand people, several brigade commanders who commanded thousands of people, dozens of staff officers and other assistants, killing and injuring at least two thousand Japanese troops. Such a huge result scared the two!

They were not shocked by the combat effectiveness of the new army, but their first reaction was the conventional rules in the army since ancient times - lies and exaggerations.

Since the Ming Dynasty, when the anti-Japanese war could kill ten real Japanese in one go, they dared to claim great merit, with hundreds of fake Japanese infighting. If they could kill thousands at a time, such as having such a result when fighting the Tartars, it would be considered a great merit, and a lot of people would benefit.

The Qing army naturally followed this "fine tradition" and made it even worse.

They witnessed the strong combat effectiveness of the new army, but it was fired based on trenches and artillery. If you counterattack and attack, just scare people. If you want to make such a big battle, you are so embarrassed to say that?

However, when they saw Nogi Hinomi's body, piles of heads and sabers with their own eyes, and then listened to the hysterical wails of the Japanese army in the distant battlefield, they could not refuse to believe it.

"Great achievements! Great contribution! Commander Yang, he fought bravely and did a beautiful job!"

The two adults were excited and ran around the ground, their eyes lit up and thought about how much benefits this could bring to them.

We must be excited. Before, all the defeats were defeated, and the generals could not defend their positions. When they were replaced, they relied on the powerful force of the new army to win consecutive battles. Such outstanding performance would inevitably shock the government and the country. Even if the two were not young and had military positions, they had limited room for growth, but after all, they were unique victories!

Yang Hao didn't mind their sharing of luck, but first reminded: "Two lords, don't be too happy too early. According to the custom of the Japanese army, the generals are killed and their soldiers must fight for revenge, otherwise they will have to be punished. Therefore, there will be an extremely crazy counterattack next, and we have to guard against it!"

Xu Bangdao and the others suddenly woke up and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! This is reasonable! You must be wary of being wasted all your efforts... I will go forward to supervise the battle now, and I must not be careless and slack!"

The credit that has been obtained must not be let go. The two of them took their personal soldiers to the front line without hesitation. Xu Bangdao was in the middle, Lian Shun stared at the left, and acted desperately, staring at all the soldiers one by one and not relaxing.

The counterattack of the first Japanese army regiment came quickly!

The corps leader Okiki took away the remaining troops and rushed to the brigade headquarters. He found it was too late and the brigade commander was missing. Many officers had their heads cut off. Looking at the looted appearance, they must have encountered an unexpected accident.

Hiroki wrapped his head in white cloth, his eyes were congested to the captains who arrived one after another: "The brigade team was attacked and the major general was unexpected, all because of our unfavorable combat. Therefore, the captain of this regiment decided to redeem the Major General with his life and avenge his revenge!"

"Revenge! Revenge must be!"

The first team leader, Major Antaro Takenaka, Major Ken Zuo Riya, and Major Nobuke Imamura, all took off their military caps and white cloth and swore their blood with a sabre!

Japanese samurai have had a tradition of killing and revengeing for their own lives since ancient times. No matter how many ridiculous and weird things a person does, they are taken for granted.

The officers expressed their gratitude, and the blood of the remaining soldiers under the motivated men was ignited. Infinite power seemed to emerge from their tired bodies. Thunderous shouts and howlings spread across the back of the position. Soon after, they sang songs with strange sounds and sounds rising and falling. More than a thousand people gathered in a formation, and even set up a row of scattered soldiers in front and back, raised their bayonets and raised their heads and rushed forward.

The smoke of gunpowder was blown away by the wind, and what appeared in front of the defenders was a high-ranking military formation that ignored life and death. The shining blade reflected cold light, and the wave formation was like a sea of ​​waves surging with an invisible momentum that was thrilling, forcing people to come!

At first, the Qing army did not take it seriously. However, as the Japanese army advanced from one thousand meters to five hundred meters, heavy machine guns in the rear opened fire and people were constantly shot and fell down, but they still rushed forward in the same formation.

There was a slight commotion among the Qing army.

The so-called hard ones are afraid of being arrogant, and the arrogant ones are afraid of being desperate. The Japanese army before had any tactical actions, but now they clearly don’t take their lives seriously. A few hundred meters away, the Qing army was so scared that their hair stood up all over!

Fortunately, Yang Hao and others were prepared, and the officers shouted at the top of their voices: "What are you afraid of?! If they dare to die, you dare not help him? They will pick up the guns and aim them all. This is all the credit for the door! I will never encounter the second time in my life. Keep calm and keep calm!"

Four hundred meters! Three hundred meters! Two hundred meters!

The light machine gun joined the strafing, and the conscience-free cannon smashed heavy medicine bags into the array from time to time. The fierce explosion swept a circle with a radius of more than ten meters, and nothing could be kept in an area the size of a basketball court.

But the Japanese army remained unmoved and continued to move forward!

The Qing army, who had finally trained some confidence, panicked again, with gunfire sounds everywhere, and 90% of the bullets were not aimed at all, and 10% were aimed at the goal, with a skewed shot, with a hit rate not even a thousandth.

Yang Hao shook his head straight: "It's still useless. Fortunately, all the troops did not withdraw, otherwise they would be defeated."

The new army soldiers who had just had a brief rest were unmoved. After the Japanese army entered a hundred meters, they all had all firepower! Accurate shooting and short-shot sweep, and the grenades that were bombarded from time to time and 60 mortars that pinched the head and tail, knocked down the Japanese troops in the chaotic positions one by one!

Ataki, Nakasa walked in the last array, and saw the troops in front of him falling down like a wheat harvest. The corners of his eyes shattered and bleeding. He raised his sword high and shouted: "Avenge your lord! Post a black card onboard! Assault---!"

"Bang!"

A bullet lifted off his sky spirit cover, and his excited shouts came to an abrupt end. His two eyes protruded unwillingly, and his body shook three times, falling forward.

The fierce gunfire lasted for nearly ten minutes. After the sparse stop, the corpses that were moving forward all over the mountains and fields formed a terrifying and weird scene.

The winning soldiers could not shout excitedly, their hearts were just cold, as if they were standing naked in the wilderness of the 39th day, trembling with coldness.
Chapter completed!
