Chapter 55 Adventurer's Gift(2/2)
"Whoosh..."
"Colonel-dono, be careful!" The nearest chief of staff took the lead and threw Colonel Hashimoto to the ground.
"Boom boom boom..."
Cannonballs exploded among several officers, completely ending their feeling of being overwhelmed.
.
"Hit, hit!"
The old squad leader shouted excitedly.
In the telescope, the small dirt bag where the little Japanese official was standing was covered with artillery shells. Ten mortar shells fell on a small area of less than ten square meters, and even the copper and iron bones were blown apart.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Ten shells were fired within thirty seconds, and the little Japanese officer had no time to react.
As soon as the bombardment ended, several brothers wanted to grab the old squad leader's telescope to watch the results of the battle, but Gao Quan kicked each of them in the butt.
"Run away, run away!" He took the lead and got into the reed swamp where he came from. "If you don't run away, you will be buried with the little devil and the high official!"
The dozen or so brothers dispersed in a hurry. They even forgot to take the mortars.
"Boom boom boom..."
Just a minute after they left, the mortar position was blasted into the sky by a Japanese mountain cannon.
Five minutes later, the aggressive little Japanese search team arrived at the scene.
There was nothing left for the little devils except the blown-up mortars.
The Japanese search team pursued along the track in the reed swamp, but the troops were too small and did not dare to go deep, allowing Gao Quan and others to escape from this reckless operation.
As for which high-ranking official killed the little Japanese, we may not have a chance to know until a long time later.
The fighting on the eastern front stopped for two hours that day, which greatly relieved the pressure on He Dingyuan and Xie Chengrui. However, the little Japanese commander who arrived later was more decisive and ruthless in his attack.
