Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 158 Tokyo Massacre (5)
Feng Zicai's unexpected sacrifice suddenly aroused the deepest anger in the hearts of all the Qing soldiers who were about to attack Tokyo. That kind of anger can only be felt after losing their closest relatives. The energy that burst out is limitless, and The final result is unpredictable.

All the people held back their energy and built the artillery position an hour in advance.After learning the news of the fall of Mount Fuji, the city of Tokyo has naturally become a mess.

Emperor Meiji was also deeply shocked by the desperate posture of the Qing Dynasty. The fierce artillery battle on Mount Fuji last night kept the emperor awake all night in the palace.The sporadic gunshots in the morning and the dazzling dragon flag on Mount Fuji had already completely broken him.

"Your Majesty, the Qing army has not attacked the city yet, so let's withdraw quickly. We can make a comeback when we go to Hokkaido." Hirobumi Ito said earnestly.

"No, my subjects are still here, and I want to live and die with them." Emperor Meiji's deep-set eyes shone with unusual firmness.

"But, Your Majesty" Ito Hirobumi was interrupted by Emperor Meiji before he could finish speaking.

"Notify Major General Inoue and issue a notice so that all the people in the city can come to the military supply department to get guns, and the whole people will resist the invasion of the Qing army. I am with them!" Emperor Meiji has the common characteristics of all samurai.

But in today's view, this feature is quite naive, ridiculous, and even stupid.If the emperor hadn't made this stupid act, I believe Tokyo would not have seen the bloody scenes that followed.

"Yes. Your Majesty." It cannot be denied that Ito Hirobumi was also infected by such a firm belief.

Of course, all the people were also infected, whether they were old people who were over half a century old or teenagers who had just turned 14, they all got guns, and what was even more ridiculous was that Zhao Bingjun also got a British-made rifle.

"Report, a secret message from General Zhao Bingjun." A telegraph soldier handed a telegram to Feng Xianghua.

Feng Xianghua took the telegram and looked at it, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. It was obvious that he liked the content of the telegram very much, and he could even be said to be very satisfied. "Notify the team that is preparing to attack, after entering the city, use the company as a unit, not to act alone, and kill all living things."

"Yes" a correspondent turned and left, and he went to convey this strange order.

"Hey, this order is interesting! Everything that has life? Whether it's human or animal, whether it's a soldier or a civilian, kill them all!" Xu Bangdao said to the communication soldier who sent the order.

"Brigade Commander, I don't think General Feng regards devils as human beings at all. The original words of his order are to kill all living things, they are things!!" The communications soldier imitated Feng Xianghua's tone and said.

Xu Bangdao frowned, and said, "Why did you give this order suddenly? He wants to massacre the city? To avenge his father?"

"No, I heard from the telegraph operator that General Zhao Bingjun sent a secret telegram, saying that the people in the city were all shooting, and it seemed that there was going to be street fighting, so General Feng was afraid that we would lose money and be blacked out by the people, just like Master Feng, who died for no reason. So let’s simply act first and kill them all first.”

The communications soldier said unhurriedly.

"You know what a fart, go back and say that we are ready for battle and can attack at any time. Make sure that there is no living thing in front of our troops!" Xu Bangdao waved his hand.

"Yes." The communications soldier who was still smiling just now suddenly became serious, and turned and left as quickly as possible.

At 9:30 in the morning, 30 minutes earlier than expected, the prelude to the city massacre began.

"boom", "boom"

On the top of Mount Fuji, 20 German Krupp cannons with a caliber of 180mm sounded at the same time, and the shells flew towards Tokyo below.

Several guard firepower points at the gate of the city were easily torn like pieces of fragile paper. After an hour of heavy artillery bombardment, the impact point began to move forward, and the small-caliber artillery, including Cai Ning's mortar, was in Tokyo City. A temporary artillery position was built outside, and it continued to cover the area that had just been bombed with artillery shells. I am afraid that there was a carpet bombing like a slipping through the net.

"Brigade Commander, why are we still rushing in if the bombardment continues like this? It's become a dead city." Chen Shanyuan pouted.

Xu Bangdao waved his hands impatiently. He was looking at the city with a binoculars, "Have you ever seen such a big scene? The artillery of the two main divisions has been fully used. Didn't you see the general order issued by General Feng? That is It will take 5 hours of continuous bombing. Let’s rush in again. If you are greedy for guns and no one is guarding you, you should go ahead.”

"Brigade Commander, do we need to charge in future wars? When the cannon is fired, we can't get something ready by rushing in, right?" Chen Shanyuan scratched his head and couldn't figure it out.

"Don't ask, just enjoy the scenery in front of you, look, how spectacular!!" Xu Bangdao said intoxicated.

"What's so good about this? I just want to rush in to avenge my teacher." Chen Shanyuan said without cutting.

Xu Bangdao turned around, looked at Chen Shanyuan and said solemnly: "I'll let you rush later, repeat the order for me."

"Yes, after entering the city, take the company as a unit and kill all the sons of bitches, whether they are soldiers or civilians, as long as they have guns in their hands, kill them all." Chen Shanyuan immediately stood at attention and replied.

"Fuck you, kill all the living things. You can't miss the ones without guns!" Xu Bangdao said angrily.

"Yes." Chen Shanyuan replied excitedly.

The sound of artillery continued, and the area of ​​Tokyo near Mount Fuji was in ruins.The artillery of the Qing Dynasty is still working hard to spread towards their maximum range, and the mortars move the artillery positions forward time and time again, and the mortars are almost put on the tower.

"Your Majesty, let's go. The southern wall has collapsed. The Qing army is about to enter the city. The people and General Inoue's troops will not be able to stop the time anyway. Let's go." Ito Hirobumi is still working hard Persuading Emperor Meiji.

Emperor Meiji waved his hand and said: "You go, I will die in Tokyo even if I die. I will not go anywhere, and I will fight the Qing army here."

"Your Majesty, with you here, we will definitely be able to make a comeback. Don't ruin the whole country just because of a momentary impulse." Ito Hirobumi knelt on the ground and cried.

"boom"

Another cannonball exploded near the palace. This location is already the third cannonball today.

It seems that the maximum range of the Qing army's artillery is here, and I am afraid that it will not be able to hit it any farther.

"Go, let Inoue transfer all the troops to the north of the city. Our buildings there have not been damaged. We will fight a street battle with the Qing army there, and let them pay the price of blood for every step forward." Emperor Meiji still Full of passion, he will not give up until the last moment, or he will not give up until the last moment.
