Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

The Bechuchi was right in front of him, guarding the coastal commercial city with 500 feet. All the crossroads and docks were blocked, and the city officials who were dripping blood intimidated the citizens who were trying to escape.

No one dared to resist. It was true that the merchants were crafty and deceitful, but they were naturally afraid of power and violence, especially when facing this violent group of the army. No one even dared to breathe loudly.

However, the war in the Bechuchi was far from over. Just when all of them were trembling in fear, waiting for the end of the bloody war, huge sails suddenly appeared on the distant ocean.

The fleet ships in the distance were extremely fast, and not long later, the Bechuchi's soldiers and citizens could all see the typical western style sails.

"Look …" Is that a foreign ship? Heavens, what happened to us in Japan this year? "No Amitabha to the south …"

"Line up... Musketeers, prepare for battle … " The soldiers were very shrewd. They could see the densely packed cannons on the side of the armor from far away.

The one who came was Xiao Letian's expedition fleet, the Bechuchi was the nail that the fleet had to pull up to the north, thus blocking their way out of the water.

Xiao Letian calmly watched as the sailors on top of the Roman prepared for battle, while Cai Mao gave out all kinds of orders in front of him. The sails started to drop and slow down. The gunner was ready to fire and the marines had already controlled the boat and were waiting for the sound of gunfire before they started to grab the beach and land.

Cai Mao walked in front of Xiao Letian and saluted. "Prime minister, please give the order!"

"I don't need to order a battle of this scale. You have to take command of the navy, leave the command of the marines to Luo Huo. It's just a Bechuchi and a few hundred soldiers, I can just watch the show … "

"Yes!" Prime Minister! " Cai Mao saluted and took two steps back, before turning his head to the entire army and giving the order. "Destroy those soldiers!"

The gunner below the deck had long been prepared. Fifteen of the newest pre-installed rifled guns were already prepared. The gunner pulled on the flintlock and a string of sparks entered it.

Boom! Boom! Boom! After a series of explosions, the deck was filled with white smoke. The soldiers coughed and coughed, "Clean the gun chamber and prepare to refill it a second time …"

At this time, the deck was filled with cheers of "Great …" A single move to determine the outcome … "This is too exciting …"

"Stop shooting... The Marines put the ship into the sea... "Quick, quick, quick …" At this time, the Bechuchi's pier was already filled with explosions. Xiao Letian watched in shock as the chain of explosions covered the entire pier, causing him to be so shocked that his jaw almost fell off.

"This, this, this, this …" This Japanese doesn't know about safety regulations, so don't the French know too? "

In just a single round of shooting, countless ammunition box s were set on fire at the Bechuchi Pier. The explosion had torn apart the formation of the Japanese soldiers, and thick flames were visible from far away.

One after another, the boats started to move across the sea. Luo Huo stood on the leading boat with his command blade in hand and shouted out loud, "Speed, speed... Haven't you eaten your fill? Attack Bechuchi immediately, don't let anyone escape … "We can't let the enemy find the smoke..."

The soldiers were shouting and waving their oars. The small boat was moving forward like a dragon boat, and its bow was about to tip up. The moment the bow of the ship touched the shallow water, Luo Huo was the first to jump down, fiercely slashing the command blade in his hands, "Brothers … "Follow me …"

The general took the lead, the soldiers dared not to fight, and with the addition of the fact that this was the first modern army in Asia to be civilized, their morale did not need to be encouraged. Hundreds of soldiers splashed into the sea, directly rushing to the shore from the shallow water.

"Quick, quick, quick..." End the fight now... "Seal off the road and organize the people to fight the fire …" The Mauser's rifle s all clattered as they pulled the safety on the spear.

At this time, it was simply impossible for the Bechuchi to organize an effective resistance. Nearly half of the five hundred guards died in that explosion, and the rest were all deaf and dizzy, as they could not even stand steadily.

After Mao Se fired off his first round of arrows, Luo Huo immediately ordered for a ceasefire. Killing these soldiers who had no power to resist was truly a futile effort, "Don't bother with these trash, immediately seal Bechuchi … Tell these people to extinguish the fire as soon as possible! "

Xiao Letian stood on the deck and looked at the one-sided battle and let out a long sigh. The next hundred years will be the era where cannons will be crowned king. Only armoured vehicles and aircraft will be able to replace them! "

"What is an airplane? What is an armored car? " The clever Zai Chun asked from the side.

"Hur hur, did I say that? You misheard me... "Ahahaha …" Xiao Letian smiled as she shook her head and avoided the topic: "Zai Chun, you must remember that in the future, the mainstream of wars will be firepower output. Heavy machine guns and cannons will become the essential weapons of the army.

"Why are Western battleships so powerful? "In fact, because every battleship is a moving artillery barrack, one battleship with hundreds of cannons, one shot at a time can turn the enemy's position into a sea of fire, even the Ironmen will have to burn you …"

"I will bring you to Shanghai for a look later. If you look carefully at the renters of English and French, you will see that the locations are very ingenious, and are all within the range of the battleships' cannons. In other words, if there is a war, the sea is their position, and the cannons can isolate all the enemies."

Zai Chun blinked his eyes and suddenly said, "Then Master once taught me that the techniques of cannons are also changing at a rapid pace. Their range, firepower, and power will all increase exponentially in the future … In that case, the English and French's tenancy in Shanghai will also grow at the same time! "

"Ahahaha …" That brat is really smart … Now you've learned another trick, the geopolitical change brought about by military advances in science and technology. This is what you figured out yourself, damn brat! "

Zai Chun was flustered by his master's praise, as he clenched his little fists tightly.

By this time, Luo Huo had finished his battle, and the rushing marines had quickly sealed up all the exits of Bechuchi, their rifles and bayonets threatening the citizens to start the fire, the thick smoke gradually disappearing from the pier.

"General Luo Huo returned to the ship, the Bechuchi left behind three hundred marines to defend, destroyed the bridge over the Bechuchi, and destroyed the road outside the city …"

The three hundred soldiers could not defend against such a huge city. Their only function was to destroy the city's Infrastructure and block the enemy's retreat path.

The wharf's wooden bridge was destroyed, the road outside the city was blocked by a small landslide made by explosives, and even some trees that had lived for hundreds of years were cut down and blocked the road. Tokugawa's retreat on the water was completely blocked.

Under the terrified gazes of the citizens of the Bechuchi, the fleet started to head north. It was already past one in the afternoon, if nothing unexpected happened, the new army of the Tokugawa would arrive in three hours.

Three hours was a very short period of time for ordinary people. Perhaps it was just a few rounds of mahjong, or perhaps it was just a chat while tasting tea, but for the battlefield, three hours was equivalent to three centuries of time.

The Osaka City had already been turned into a city of blood, after the allied army camp beat down all the death soldiers, the people held onto the pieces of the Imperial Banner and cried loudly. stabbed his blade into their faces, and fresh blood flowed down from their foreheads like waterfalls. He vowed to kill all the living creatures in Osaka City.

"Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city! Slaughter the city! " Xi Xianglongsheng took off the clothes on his right arm and put it on his waist. He walked at the front with the Katana in his hand and was half-naked as he walked with Zhong Gangshentailang, Gao Shanjinzuo, Shan Xianyoupeng … Even civil servants like Itou Hirobumi followed the main general with a blade and walked towards Osaka City.

Even Sakamoto Ryoma, who had been always calm, was within the group. At this time, the mood of the allied army was truly fanatical, if Sakamoto Ryoma dared to speak a different opinion, he would definitely be killed on the spot.

The generals were already on the battlefield, let alone the soldiers and warriors. They carried all kinds of siege weapons and started charging forward. Everyone was shouting the slogan of massacre.

The sound of the pieces of jade breaking through the Osaka City's head had already pierced the sky, until Tokugawa Yoshinobu finally appeared as he stood by the side of the Heaven's Tower's fence and shouted.

"My most loyal warriors and soldiers... If the enemy wants to slaughter the city, what should we do? "

"Jade Fragment …" "Jade fragments …" A sound that was like the waves of a ocean rang out.

"That's right, I, Tokugawa Yoshinobu, am standing right here. We are not lambs waiting to be slaughtered, if they want to slaughter the city, we have to retaliate …" Jade fragments! Jade fragments! "Jade fragments …"

The battle erupted under the shroud of dark clouds as a black tide of people rushed towards the walls of Osaka City. Hundreds of ladders were built on top of the city walls, and the cruelest ant Ant Attack City began.

Xi Xianglongsheng screamed and was about to climb the ladder as well, but the warriors around him stopped him. "General, please hold your ground and let us die for you …" Everyone was pulling him back, and one by one the warriors rushed up the ladder.

Xi Xianglongsheng's eyes were wide open as he roared out like a wild beast, "Let me go... Go away... Slaughter the city! " At that moment, a bucket of boiling water suddenly splashed down from above his head.

"General!" With a loud roar, the two warriors threw him to the ground. The boiling water scalded their backs, and the smell of human flesh rose up.

The warrior with a sinister expression shouted at Xi Xianglongsheng in pain, "General! Your position is in the tent, you are the commander... "The matter of suicide, let us do it …" With that, he jumped up from the ground, enduring the pain, and started crawling towards the top of the city wall.

Until now, when Xi Xianglongsheng was finally awake. He let the warriors pull him one after another, all the way until he was fifty meters away from the city wall. Only then did he stop.

"Warriors of the alliance, I, Xi Xianglongsheng, will stand right here as the final general reserve. I will watch as you attack the city, and I will pounce on the city wall as the last death warrior … "

"Either our entire army dies here, or we attack the Osaka City … Slaughter the city! " Xi Xianglongsheng roared like a wild beast.

"Slaughter the city, kill …"

"Here's the duck, board load! "Board Load..."

"Look, Mr. Ryoma and Shentu have already broken through the city wall …" The first wall has been taken! "
