0359 Night Cannon Attack
Out of absolute self-confidence, the Japanese camp did not have walls. At the same time, this was also a huge bait. Camps without walls were most vulnerable to enemy raids. So Kono Joey selected two teams to ambush outside the camp.
A team specially waiting for the enemy to attack at night.
Near midnight, the night attack team did come. But it was not the large group of people Huashan Jiugao imagined, but only a few dozen people came. This is probably what Huashan Jiugao never expected. This night attack team was Qiqi
Tao personally led the team. It was not that Liu Pei paid much attention to this night attack, but he wanted to use Qi Qitao's eyes to see the reaction of the Japanese team.
The location of the artillery launch has been surveyed long ago, and even the gun emplacement has been dug. The artillery position is probably less than two miles away from the enemy's camp. At this distance, the artillery can penetrate the Japanese camp, but the accuracy is not good.
Think about it. The impact point of the cannonball is completely random.
Qi Qitao sat on his horse and looked at the Japanese camp from a distance. He said to himself: "I hope you have prepared a team to defend against night attacks."
The leader of the artillery team kept urging the gunners, saying: "Faster, faster, faster! Remember, we only shoot four rounds!"
After a while, the artillery was ready to fire. It was really troublesome to do these things in the dark, but fortunately the gunners were well-trained. When Qi Qitao saw that the gunners were ready, he whispered: "When you are ready, just fire."
!”
After receiving the order, the gunners immediately pressed the fire matcher on the fuse. The seal burned out in the blink of an eye, and only a loud "boom" was heard. The four artillery guns were fired almost at the same time. In this silent night, the four blasts were superimposed.
The sound of the cannon could be heard by the entire Ryukyu Island!
As soon as the shells flew out, the gunner who was clearing the barrel inserted the wool brush into the barrel! Immediately afterwards, the other team members followed up and prepared for the second round. Soon, the four rounds of artillery were fired, and twelve shells were smashed into the barrel.
The Japanese camp. The gunners didn't care about the results of the battle, so they mounted the cannons on their horses and ran away in a hurry!
Huashan Jiugao was awakened by the sound of artillery in the camp. He subconsciously thought it was thunder. But after being in battle for a long time, he immediately realized that it was definitely not thunder. Huashan Jiugao couldn't help being shocked. Could it be that the enemy was launching a massive attack at night?
Attacked? Why didn't the soldiers in ambush outside call the police? Kaguyama Kutaka believed that Kono Kamui was not a fool. He would arrange sentries and teams according to the situation. If they didn't respond, something must have happened!
Huashan Jiugao didn't care about anything else. He picked up his sword and rushed out of the tent in single clothes. When he rushed out of the tent, the first round of shells happened to land. One of the shells landed in a tent not far from Huashan Jiugao.
Above, the tent was instantly penetrated by a cannonball, and then the splashing blood dyed the tent red! Then the cannonball jumped out from the other side of the tent and smashed into the other side.
A tent. A moment later, a scream came from that tent!
Huashan Jiugao knew without looking that the guy who screamed was missing an arm or a leg. At this time, other soldiers were also awakened by the sound of cannons and got up to check the situation. The one Huashan Jiugao saw was the first to be defeated.
A series of screams came from the tent.
Huashan Jiugao rushed over and cut open the tent with a knife, and immediately understood what was going on. It turned out that after the shell hit the tent, it directly killed a soldier in his sleep. The soldier went to see Amaterasu without any pain.
Great God! But after the other soldiers were awakened by the sound of cannons, they found that half of the body of their comrade had rotted away, so they screamed in surprise.
Just as Huashan Jiugao was about to speak, noises came from several other places in the camp. It seemed that other tents were also hit by artillery shells. After all, the tents in the camp were quite dense!
We can't blame the soldiers for not obeying military discipline and shouting randomly. After all, when they opened their eyes, they saw the torn corpses of their companions around them, and even their own faces were splashed with blood. How many of them could restrain their shock and not scream?
of!
Huashan Jiugao knew that he was in big trouble! Soldiers are prone to do crazy things when they are awakened at night. Camp roars mentioned in military history often occur under such circumstances. Sometimes even because of a certain
The soldier had a nightmare and shouted twice. The people around him thought that the enemy was coming in their sleep. They grabbed weapons and slashed to protect themselves, which would cause the camp to roar! Those rational soldiers would be killed by the irrational soldiers.
Get involved. In order to save their lives, everyone will subconsciously kill those who get close! By the time everyone regains their senses, the camp will probably be destroyed, and the personnel will suffer heavy casualties!
Now there are signs of this in the Japanese camp. Huashan Jiugao made a quick decision and immediately took a few steps back and stood next to the fire, shouting loudly: "Everyone, stop where you are! Don't move! No enemies! No enemies!"
At the same time, many officers were doing similar things. As soon as the soldiers stood firm amidst the officers' roars, the second round of shells fell again! Unfortunately, this round of shells did not achieve any results, only killing them.
Seven or eight people were injured.
At this time, the soldiers in the entire camp had woken up and got out of the tent one after another to see what was going on. As soon as they came out, many people saw the broken bodies and flowing blood, and couldn't help but scream again! Now in the camp
The atmosphere inside was extremely tense! There were soldiers everywhere who didn't know what was going on and officers shouting loudly.
Just when the officers were trying their best to explain to the soldiers that someone in the distance was firing artillery into the camp, the third round of artillery shells landed! This round of artillery shells achieved the greatest results so far! At this time, all the soldiers in the tent climbed out of the tent
, asking each other what happened
The crowd was quite dense, so each shell took away at least one life and different parts of limbs of more than four people!
In an instant, screams resounded throughout the camp. Splashes of blood irritated the eyes of the soldiers. The soldiers who had just stood still were frightened by the shelling scene. The soldiers who did not see the scene of the shells falling were more horrified than those who did.
Scared! Because they didn’t know what was happening, they instinctively wanted to find a safe place to escape the unknown disaster, so many soldiers started running, and a terrible marketing was right in front of them!
Huashan Jiugao naturally knew how terrifying Ying Xiao was! These soldiers must be frightened at this time, otherwise even he might not be spared! So he directly picked up the sword and chopped off the head of a bewildered soldier in front of him. He shouted loudly
Shouted: "Everyone lie down where you are! Those who stand will die!"
After speaking, he took two quick steps and chopped down another soldier who was already running! The flying head greatly frightened the surrounding Japanese soldiers, who subconsciously fell to the ground. Other officers also quickly killed the Japanese soldiers.
The order was passed on. Moreover, the officers were not gentle, and more than ten soldiers who were running around were killed. This was so shocking that the entire camp fell to the ground.
At this time, the fourth round of shells landed. However, all the soldiers in the camp were lying on the ground at this time, so this round of shells did not achieve any success and only knocked over a few empty tents.
Huashan Jiugao strode around the camp with his sword in hand, constantly yelling at the soldiers who were all lying on the ground and not allowed to get up. But no more shells fell. After a long time, Huashan Jiugao was sure there would be no more shelling.
Only then did he order the soldiers to get up and tidy up the camp. Looking at the messy camp, Huashan Jiugao's teeth were almost broken!
After about two moments, the camp was restored to its original state, and the corpses were collected. However, the smell of blood still lingered in the camp. At this time, Kono Kamei ran back from outside the camp with a large group of people.
As soon as he saw the fixed price, he bowed and said, "I'm really sorry, sir!"
Huashan Jiugao shouted: "What happened outside? Are there any enemies attacking at night?"
Kono Ueyoshi bowed again and said: "I'm very sorry, sir. I did not ambush the enemy's night attack team. At that time, I led people to ambush outside the camp. Unexpectedly, I suddenly heard the sound of the collapse of the country. At that time, I felt that something was not good.
, I immediately ordered the team to move towards the place where the sound came from. But when we got there, there was nothing there, only the smell of gunpowder smoke left! I carefully surveyed there and found this carrying
