- Although he suffered a defeat in the first battle, Bao Juhua was not particularly worried.
The forward commanded by Taro Matsumoto is not very effective in combat. Occasional small setbacks, even if they are not encountered by the Tiger Guard, can wake up the Tiger Guard soldiers.
Bao Juhua didn't pay much attention to the thousand Japanese people on the opposite side. Those who still used swords didn't need to worry too much in the face of the absolutely superior firearms of the Huben Guards officers.
The only problem is how to completely and cleanly annihilate those thousand Japanese.
Bao Juhua has no doubt about victory. Breaking through Iwakuni and occupying Hiroshima is an absolutely unchangeable plan. Any force that blocks the way forward will be ruthlessly eradicated.
A new attack is already brewingand in this attack, Taro Matsumoto, who suffered humiliation and was eager for revenge, was still placed in the attack position.
Taro Matsumoto¡¯s failure made him feel not only angry, but also full of frustration. He knew what military success meant in the Ming Dynasty army, especially in the Huben Guards.
That will bring you glory and great wealth
On April 21, the thirteenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, the slightly adjusted Huben Guards launched a new offensive against Yanguo.
This time the Tiger Guard Artillery appeared on the battlefield, and it was also a powerful weapon that made all enemies feel fearful and helpless.
Especially since the Ming army¡¯s artillery began to widely use explosive bullets, the damage caused on the battlefield was terrible
When the artillery fire started, Iwakuni suffered a devastation that made the Japanese tremble. Without warning. One shell after another roared towards the enemy's position.
The damage caused by explosive bullets is completely incomparable to that of solid bullets.
The Japanese who lined up waiting for the enemy to charge did not see the enemy, but they were greeted by an overwhelming cannonball. The shells fell one after another in their formation, and the fragments stirred up were enough to kill any one of them.
?????? Hayakae Chuyasu and the deputy director Shinemon tried their best to organize the formation so that it would not collapse, and they worked hard to organize the team so that it would not be chaotic.
But the current situation is not optimistic.
At first, his team tried its best to maintain stability, but as the Ming army's artillery fire became sharper each time. The line began to become chaotic.
More and more people are falling down, more and more people are lying in a pool of blood and moaning
"For His Majesty the Emperor, for the Yoshikawa family. Fight hard!" Tadayashi Hayakae howled loudly.
You can¡¯t lose. You absolutely can¡¯t fail this time. You must persist no matter whateven if you persist until the last person. We must not let Iwakuni fall into the hands of the enemy.
Vice-Chairman Shinemon had the same idea. But the current situation makes him feel very difficult.
"Sayakage-kun, charge!" Seeing the large numbers of samurai fall, the worried deputy commander Shinemon said loudly.
Yes, there is no other way besides charging. If the enemy's artillery fire is allowed to wreak havoc here, they will have only one ending:
Completely defeated by the enemy!
"Charge!" After another round of enemy shells fell, Tadayoshi Hayakae finally made up his mind.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? else, even if they are going to die, they will die on the road to charge and once they get close to the enemy. Then the enemy's artillery will not be able to work, and perhaps the bravery of the warriors can produce miracles
¡° I have to admit that Hayakage Tadayashi and the deputy leader Shinemon are still brave. They don¡¯t care too much about their own life and death. But they have no idea how far firearms have developed in this era.
A hasty charge can only lead to the most horrific massacre
This is exactly what the Japanese are facing now!
The shells fell crazily into the Japanese formation. Round after round of shells slaughtered the charging enemies, and the Japanese fell in droves. But there are still dozens of enemies rushing forward regardless of life and death!
Massacre, this is a real massacre!
The raging artillery fire made it impossible for all the Japanese to see any hope The blood has dyed the ground under their feet red, and the corpses are almost filling the place.
Now, it has completely turned into a mechanical and numb charge.
They see no hope, they will never have any hope
When some people worked hard to escape from the coverage of the artillery fire. But they were "received" by muskets again. Rows of Ming soldiers held up their muskets, and amid the smoke, all they could see were their naked bodies.??Bloody!
The showdown between cold weapons and hot weapons is no longer on the same level. Even though the current Tiger Guards have not yet developed to the point where they can fully utilize thermal weapons to achieve victory.
But it¡¯s enough to deal with these Japanese
The air on the battlefield is also full of the smell of blood, and the breath of death surrounds these Japanese who are only half left. The hopeless Japanese are fighting a hopeless battle. They are numb, sad, and desperate. This is their entire mentality
The charge suddenly came to an abrupt halt.
The noisy battlefield suddenly became quietquiet, with no sound at all
The deputy commander, Shinemon, was sitting on the ground. One of his legs was broken. He was holding his companion Tadayashi Hayakae in his arms.
Zaijing Zhongtai is dead. The deputy commander, Shinemon, watched helplessly as Hayakae Tadayashi fell in front of him, and his body was penetrated by countless muskets.
When he died, maybe Zaoking Tadayai didn't have much pain. Is this also a kind of relief for him?
Vice-Chairman Shinemon wanted to cry, but he couldn't shed a single tear. Too much sorrow had made him numb.
He never imagined that it would end like this. He couldn't even rush in front of the enemy and use the bravery and determination of the warrior to have a "fair" contest with the enemy.
Dead, almost all of his people are deadThe Yoshikawa family will also suffer such an end sooner or later
Countless enemies surrounded him. But Shinemon, the deputy director, didn't even raise his head to look. He knew who was coming and what fate he was about to face, but what was the use?
Taro Matsumoto appeared in front of the deputy commander Shinemon, his blood-red eyes staring at his enemy.
It was the injured man in front of him and the dead man in his arms that caused him the greatest humiliation. He looked at Bao Juhua who arrived later. Bao Juhua's expression was indifferent.
Taro Matsumoto was relieved.
The katana in his hand was raised high. At this time, the deputy commander Shinemon suddenly raised his head: "Are you still a Japanese?"
Are you still a Japanese?
This sentence may be useful to others. But it had no effect on Taro Matsumoto. He had already forgotten his identity, and he even hated the word "Japanese" extremely.
? Japanese people, Japanese people. Why do you want to be Japanese? He worked loyally for the people of the Ming Dynasty precisely to get rid of such a shameful status.
"Eight!" Taro Matsumoto roared, and then the command sword in his hand fell heavily
A head rolled to the groundeverything fell into silence
Taro Matsumoto, covered in blood, came to Bao Juhua's side: "Your Excellency, Commander. What should we do with the remaining people?"
He was talking about about two hundred prisoners. Bao Juhua looked at it and then smiled slightly: "These people are all yours now. No matter how you want to deal with them, they have nothing to do with me."
¡°The simple words made Taro Matsumoto feel great trust.
Let yourself handle it? That is to say, the commander's trust in him has reached a level unmatched by others. The high-spirited Matsumoto Taro gathered all the prisoners.
Those who had been injured by Matsumoto Taro thought they were of no use and were all brutally executed. Those who were willing to surrender were incorporated into their own teams. Of course, there were also some who were determined to serve the Yoshikawa family, and these The human condition. But it is extremely sad. There are only two words for the ending they face:
die!
A new massacre is beginning here.
One after another, the heads of the captives were beheaded, and the land that had been soaked red with blood was once again soaked with blood.
About half of the people chose to surrender, while the rest were executed en masse
When the last prisoner fell. Only then did Matsumoto Taro put away the blood-covered katana. An exhilarating massacre, a blood boiling massacre!
On April 21, the 13th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, Bao Juhua, the commander of Hubenwei South Road, successfully captured Yan State. In this battle, two of Yoshikawa Buwu's most powerful generals, Hayakae Tadayai and the deputy commander Shinemon, were killed, and the entire army of one thousand Japanese was destroyed.
Iwakuni fell into the hands of the Tiger Guards, and the door to Hiroshima was opened!
Now Buwu Yoshikawa must face this serious situation.
Bao Juhua didn¡¯t want to stay any longer. Iwakuni is just a small episode on the road to march, and? has only one ultimate goal:
Hiroshima!
The Japanese people headed by Taro Matsumoto have become the force he can most rely on. These surrendered Japanese were very familiar with the local situation. With their assistance, the Tiger Guards could reach Hiroshima in the shortest time.
And subsequent developments also proved that Ding Yunyi's method of using Japanese traitors was correct.
These Japanese traitors played a huge role, especially those samurai warriors of the Yoshikawa family who had just surrendered.
They are familiar with every road from Iwakuni to Hiroshima, and are familiar with every defense of the Yoshikawa family. They know where to pass in the simplest way.
All this also caused Yoshikawa Fuwu to learn the news of Iwakuni's tragic defeat. Before he could make any adjustments, the enemy's forward troops had already appeared in Hiroshima.
The plan to stay in Iwakuni for ten days completely came to nothing.
Yoshikawa Bugo did not panic too much. He actually knew from the beginning that if he lacked external help, it would be impossible for him to hold on to Hiroshima.
Failure is just a matter of time.
"If you can hold on here for one more day, you will hold on to Japan's defense for one more day!" Yoshikawa Buwu made up his mind to fight to the end here. He gathered all his retainers: "Iwakuni's deadly battle is here. Buying time for Hiroshima, and the deadly battle for Hiroshima is buying time for His Majesty the Emperor and the General!¡±
The retainers were silent.
Iwakuni's defeat came too quickly. Originally, they thought that with the bravery of Hayakage Tadayashi and the deputy leader Shinemon, there would be no problem in holding back the enemy for more than ten days in Iwakuni.
But who would have thought that it would end like this now
"Master Governor, do you really want to fight to the end?" Lie Qing, a veteran of the Yoshikawa family, raised his own question: "Judging from the defeat of Iwakuni, the firearms of the Ming army have reached a point where we cannot resist. Hiroshima Castle has been around for a long time No serious repairs have been made, and I am skeptical about whether it can hold on to this place in such a short period of time.¡±
Yoshikawa Buwu nodded. He didn't want to hide anything in front of his retainers: "Yes, we alone cannot hold Hiroshima, but now our battle is not for ourselves. Everyone, if Hiroshima is easily lost, , what does that mean? The enemy can pass through here unscrupulously and directly pose a huge and terrible threat to Kyoto with Hiroshima as the rear. That is not what I want to see. "
Yoshikawa Buwu's eyes slowly swept over the retainers one by one: "The general has always been wary of the Yoshikawa family, but now is not the time to discuss personal grudges. Japan's interests are above all else!"
When these words were spoken, all the retainers had a new view of the former playboy Yoshikawa Buwu.
"Since the Lord Governor has decided to fight to the end, let's follow him and die here together." From a bird's-eye view, Lie Qing no longer hesitated.
Yoshikawa Buwu smiled slightly: "Thank you, Bird's-eye view is worthy of being a veteran of my Yoshikawa family. I order that all men over the age of twelve in Hiroshima be incorporated into the city's defense army, and all women are also incorporated into the city's defense army. In the team. When the enemy arrives, let them see the determination of Hiroshima City!"
"Hai!" the retainers shouted together.
Although Yoshikawa Buwu is ready for a fight to the death, he still hopes to create a miracle here. The question now is whether the general's family will send reinforcements in time.
But I sincerely hope that the general can put aside all the previous grievances and fight side by side for the future and destiny of Japan like myself.
He knew clearly that the Ming army must have been fully prepared if they chose to send troops suddenly at this time. They had only one purpose this time:
Completely destroy Japan!
The fate of Japan is in everyone's hands. As long as Japan works together as one and fights to the end, Japan will definitely not be destroyed.
However, the development of things was completely different from what Yoshikawa Buwu thought! Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work - Didn't finish reading?
