0359 Artillery Night Attack

Out of absolute self-confidence, the camp of the Japanese people did not have a wall. At the same time, it is also a huge bait. Camps without walls are the most vulnerable to enemy raids. So Kono Ueyoshi selected two teams of people to lie in ambush outside the camp and wait for the enemy's night attack.

Approaching midnight, the night raider arrived. However, it was not the brigade that Hisataka imagined by Birshan, but only a few dozen people came. This is probably something that Hisataka Kayama never expected. This night attack team was led by Qi Qitao himself. It's not that Liu Peiduo attaches more importance to this night attack, but he wants to use Qi Qitao's eyes to see the reaction of the Japanese team.

The firing positions of the artillery have long been surveyed, and even the gun emplacements have been dug up. The gun emplacements were probably less than two miles away from the enemy's large camp. This distance artillery can hit the camp of the Japanese people, but don't think about the accuracy. The landing point of the shells was completely random.

Qi Qitao sat on horseback and looked at the Japanese camp from afar. 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: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Remember, we're going to play four rounds! ”

After a few moments, the artillery was ready for fire. It was really troublesome to do these things in the dark, but fortunately the gunners were well trained. Qi Qitao saw that the gunners were ready, so he whispered: "Get ready, open fire directly!" ”

Receiving the order, the gunners immediately pressed the fire medium to the fuse. The seal burned in the blink of an eye, only a loud "boom" was heard, and the four guns were fired almost simultaneously. In this silent night, the sound of four cannons superimposed on each other is afraid that the entire Ryukyu Island can be heard!

As soon as the shell flew out, the breezed gunner poked the wool brush into the chamber! Immediately after that, the other team members followed up one at a time to prepare for the second round. Soon, four rounds of artillery were fired, and twelve shells smashed into the camp of the Japanese people. The gunners didn't care to see the results of the battle, so they hung up the guns on their horses and ran away!

Hisashi Kayama was awakened by the sound of artillery in the camp, and he subconsciously thought it was thunder. But after a long battle, he immediately realized that this was definitely not thunder. Birshan, Hisataka couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that the enemy had attacked in the night? Why didn't the soldiers in ambush on the periphery call the police? Hisaka Kayama believed that Kono Ueyoshi was not stupid, and he was supposed to set up the sentinels and teams, and if they didn't react, something must have happened!

Birch Yama didn't care about anything else, and rushed out of the tent with a knife in his single clothes. When he rushed out of the tent, the first round of shells hit the ground. One of the shells was falling on a tent not far from Hisataka, Birshan. The tent was instantly pierced by shells, and then the splatters of blood stained the tent red! Then the shell jumped off the other side of the tent and smashed into the other. A moment later there was a scream from that tent!

Kayama Hisaka didn't need to look to know that the guy who screamed was either missing an arm or a leg. At this time, the other soldiers were also awakened by the sound of artillery and got up to check the situation. As Hisakama saw, a series of exclamations came from the tent that had been broken first.

Hisakama rushed over and slashed 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 Amaterasu without any pain! But when the other soldiers were awakened by the sound of the cannons, they found that half of their companion's body had rotted, and they let out an exclamation.

As soon as Hisaka wanted to speak, there was another commotion from several other parts of the camp. It appears that other tents were also hit by shells. After all, the tents in the camp are quite dense!

This cannot be blamed on the soldiers for not obeying military discipline and shouting indiscriminately. After all, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the torn corpses of my companions around me, and I was splashed with blood all over my body, how many people could restrain the shock and not scream!

Hisakama knew that he was in big trouble! Soldiers are awakened at night and are prone to manic things. What is known in military history as a battalion howling often occurs in this situation. Sometimes even because a soldier has a nightmare and shouts twice, the people next to him think that the enemy is attacking in their sleep, grab their weapons and slash around to protect themselves, which will cause the camp to roar! The sane soldiers will be swept up by the irrational soldiers. In order to save their lives, everyone will subconsciously slash and kill those who come close! By the time everyone comes to their senses, the camp will be destroyed, and the personnel will be killed and wounded!

Now there are signs of this in the Japanese camp. Hisataka Kayama immediately made a decision, immediately took a few steps back and stood next to the fire, and shouted: "Everyone stand still!" Don't move! There are no enemies! There are no enemies! ”

At the same time, quite a few officers are doing similar things. The soldiers had barely stood firm under the shouts of the officers when the second round of shells fell! Unfortunately, this round of shelling did not achieve much success, killing and wounding only seven or eight people.

By this time, the soldiers in the entire camp had come to their senses and came out of the tent to see what was going on. As a result, as soon as many people came out, they saw the broken corpses and the flowing blood, and couldn't help but exclaim again! The atmosphere in the camp is tense right now! Everywhere there were soldiers who didn't know what was going on and officers who yelled loudly.

Just as the officers were desperately trying to explain to the soldiers that someone was firing artillery at the camp in the distance, a third round of shells hit the ground! This round of shells has achieved the biggest result so far! At this time, the soldiers in the tent all climbed out of the tent and asked each other what was going on, and the crowd was quite dense. So each shell took at least one human life and more than four different parts of the body!

Suddenly, screams rang out in the camp. The blood splatters irritated the soldiers' eyes. The soldiers, who had just stood firm, were frightened by the scene of the shelling. And the soldiers who did not see the scene of the shells falling were more scared than the people who saw them! Because they didn't know what was going on and instinctively wanted to find a safe place to escape the unknown disaster, many soldiers began to run, and a terrible marketing was just around the corner!

Birshan, Hisataka naturally knows how terrible the camp is! These soldiers must be deterred at this time, otherwise even he may not be spared! So he directly picked up the knife and cut off the head of a bewildered soldier in front of him. He shouted, "Everyone get down on the spot!" Death to those who stand! ”

After saying that, he rushed two steps and cut down another soldier who was already running! The flying of the human head greatly shocked the surrounding Japanese soldiers, and they subconsciously lay on the ground. The other officers were quick to relay the order. Moreover, the officers were not lightly attacked, and more than a dozen soldiers who were running around were killed, which shocked the entire camp and fell to the ground.

At this time, the fourth round of shells landed. However, at this time, the soldiers in the camp were lying on the ground, so this round of shells did not work, and only a few empty tents were overturned.

Biryama Hisataka strode through the camp with a sword, constantly shouting and scolding the soldiers for lying on the ground and not being allowed to get up. But no more shells fell. After a long time, Kayama Hisataka was sure that there would be no more shelling, and he ordered his soldiers to get up and tidy up the camp. Looking at the chaotic camp, Birch Mountain's teeth were about to be crushed!

After a quarter or so, the camp was put back to its original state, and the bodies were collected. But the smell of blood still wafted through the camp. At this time, Kono Kamiyoshi ran back from outside the camp with a large group of men.

As soon as he saw the fixed price, he bowed down and said, "I'm really sorry." My lord! ”

Hisakama shouted, "What the hell is going on outside? Are there any enemies attacking at night? ”

Kono Kamiyoshi bowed again and said, "I'm very sorry, my lord. I did not ambush the ranks of the enemy's night attack. At that time, I led people to ambush outside the camp, but I suddenly heard the sound of the collapse of the country. I didn't think it was good, so I immediately ordered the team to move towards the place where the sound was coming from. But when we got there, there was nothing but the smell of gunpowder burning! I carefully surveyed there and found that the team carrying the collapse of the country had only come with less than 100 people. The shooting was two miles away from the camp, so we didn't catch anything! I just don't know what method they used to move away so quickly? ”
