Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Nogi Nozomi, who was in the command position in the distance, glanced at Imazu Takanori with disdain, his eyes clearly said: "See, the Qing army has already scared away!"

Takashi Imazu thought to himself: "It seems that I am really worrying too much. Even if the Qing army changed a commander, the cowardice of the Chinese people has already melted into their bones. What can Lin Yuan do!"

The Japanese soldiers were getting closer and closer to the city gate. Nogi Nozomi smiled. He was already thinking about the celebration banquet. Countless reporters surrounded him, and the spotlights kept flickering... The press conference accompanying the army invited him to the city gate. Take a group photo at the door, and in a few days, this photo will be published in the "Osaka Asahi Shimbun" (now Japan's "Asahi Shimbun", one of the three largest newspapers in Japan), and those photographers accompanying the army will also ask The soldiers pretended to climb the city wall, and then they filmed it to promote the bravery of the Imperial Japanese Army, just let them do what they did in Jinzhou and Dalian!

Just when Nogi Nozomi's dream was about to come true, that is, when the Japanese army running in the front was less than a meter away from the city gate, a "da da da" sound suddenly came from the opened city gate!

That is the nightmare of every soldier on the battlefield - the sound of the Maxim heavy machine gun!

An 11.43mm bullet, at a distance of one meter, is enough to beat a person into pieces!

As I said before, the Japanese army used people as a stormtrooper to attack the city gate. This number is not large, which can ensure the flexibility after entering Jinzhou City; there are not many, at least locally, it can form a numerical advantage and create conditions for large troops to enter the city. .Don't look at the 5000 defenders, but they can't all pile up at the gate of the city!

At such a short distance, the Japanese soldiers on the attack did not even have time to shoot. Soon the first and second batch of Japanese soldiers fell in front of the city gate, which was only about five meters wide. When blocked by Japanese soldiers, it is impossible for the Japanese machine guns behind to support them, because as long as they shoot, they will hit their own people.

Looking closely at the spirit of bushido, almost every sentence reveals that "death means glory", so the Japanese army is famous for not being afraid of death when fighting, but the Japanese army is not stupid. Armed with the machine gun of the Qing army, he knew that rushing up could only lead to a dead end, so he retreated.

Nogi Noki scolded "Baga" (meaning "bastard" in Japanese, which is quite a vulgar term), and I have to say that Nogi Noki's style of play is correct, and his judgment on the Qing army is also correct, but He forgot that the current commander in the city is Lin Yuan, an outstanding military officer from China in the 21st century.

Lin Yuan knew that the Japanese loved to attack the city at around two o'clock in the morning, when people were most tired, so he came up with a method, that is, at least half of the soldiers had to go to bed every day during the day, people were not some animals, not Maybe I sleep 24 hours a day, sleep all day, and feel sleepy at night.

But during the day, it is not easy for people to fall asleep, so Lin Yuan came up with a way to ask people to cover the windows of the barracks with black cloth, then heat up the fire wall, and make some good things for those on duty at night. Soldiers eat. In this way, soldiers who are full of food and drink run into the warm dark room, what else can they do if they don’t sleep. Therefore, there are energetic soldiers of the Qing army on duty every night.

As for the fact that the Qing army did not fight back when the Japanese army started shelling, it was also Lin Yuan’s idea. Jinzhou was an important military town on the Songliao Plain and had always been the gateway to Beijing. Therefore, the city walls of Jinzhou City were tall and thick. Lin Yuan carefully studied the performance of the Japanese artillery, and knew that their artillery could hardly break through the city walls of Jinzhou, so he expected them to bombard the city gates.

So Lin Yuan ordered not to fight back when the Japanese army bombarded them, but to attack them with machine guns when the Japanese army blasted open the city gate and charged into the city.

In fact, it doesn’t matter even if the Japanese army rushes into the city gate. Jinzhou City has two layers of walls, one is the outer wall, which is the wall that the Japanese army is attacking now, and the other is the inner wall. There is a large open space between the inner and outer walls, and there is no war. At that time, it was a small market for businessmen who came and went to sell things. Once a war broke out, this place became a slaughterhouse for killing the enemy.

In fact, Lin Yuan could also put a lot of Japanese soldiers between the inner and outer cities, and then attack from both sides, but he didn't dare to do this, because he was still not at ease with these Qing soldiers, for fear that they would hear: "The Japanese army has entered the city! "He threw down the gun, and Sa Yazi ran away.

Nogi Xidian sneered, thinking: "This opponent is not bad, it is interesting to fight such a battle!"

So Nogi Xidian ordered that the artillery bombard the city, and the infantry be ready to attack the city at any time.

Quite right, the infantry team had already taken out the ladders, and just waiting for an order, they carried the ladders to attack the city. On the other side, many Japanese soldiers had already started to pile up sandbags. Their purpose was to pile up one as high as the city wall. The pile of sandbags, and then set up the machine gun on it, and use it to suppress the firepower of the defenders at the top of the city.

Xiong Tiesheng was in command at the top of the city, and he saw the tricks of the Japanese army at a glance, so he ordered his subordinates to shoot at the sandbag position of the Japanese army. Ser's 2000 rifle and Maxim heavy machine gun, but the soldiers of the Qing army were condescending, and many bullets still flew to the top of the Japanese army's heads, so the speed of the Japanese army's pile of sandbags also slowed down.

Imazu Takashi knew that it is absolutely forbidden to give orders to attack the city now, because there are many defenders on the top of the city, and there are also a few fortress guns, although these fortress guns are front-mounted smoothbore guns, and they are similar to the red-clothed guns of the Ming Dynasty. There is no big difference in the cannon. Although it is old and the process is close, the iron sand flying out of the huge muzzle is a sharp weapon to kill and injure the siege infantry.

Imazu Takashi couldn't help looking at Nogi Nori worriedly. Although they had disagreements, they still had the same position when facing the Qing army. He knew Nogi Nori was stubborn, and he was afraid that he would order a forcible siege of the city. If so, the casualties will be great.

But Nogi Xidian looked at the battlefield leisurely, with an unhurried expression on his face, as if everything was under his control. It turned out that Nogi Xidian had already had a plan to break the city in his heart.

The fighting at the east gate was in full swing. Through the dark night, a team of nearly 100 people, everyone in this team was wearing black robes. Through the dark night, they quietly touched the root of the city wall between the south gate and the west gate.

It is impossible to stand guard at every point of the city wall with a circumference of more than 20 kilometers, because that would be insufficient troops, so the Qing army could only deploy heavy troops at a few key points, while other places had to send people to patrol. Once it was discovered that the Japanese army was attempting to attack the city elsewhere, the rest of the people immediately rushed to prevent the Japanese army from attacking the city.

On this dark cloudy night, the patrol team at the head of the city failed to find the Japanese squad that had sneaked up.The Japanese soldiers all held engineering shovels in their hands and carried a huge burden on their backs. Lin Yuan had previously proposed the method of pouring water on the city walls to freeze. The water flowed to the ground and formed a layer of ice on the ground. If they were digging ice with a shovel, the sound would attract others.

They took down a big kettle from their backs. When the lid was opened, white steam came out of it. It turned out that the kettle was filled with hot water. They poured the hot water on the ice, and the ice melted very quickly. Taking advantage of this gap, they shoveled away the ice that had melted into water, began to dig the ground, and soon dug a large hole in the ground near the base of the wall.

Then they put the explosives on their backs, pulled out the fuse, pushed down the safety ground, and ignited the fuse. After the sound of "呲味" was over, the earth-shattering explosion resounded through the night sky.

Nogi Xidian at the east gate could not have heard the explosion, because the battlefield was too noisy, but a messenger rode on a fast horse and came to report: "A big hole has been blasted in the city wall between the south gate and the west gate. !"
