"I am a Chinese, I love my motherland, since I am lucky to be reborn in this great era, then, let me use my blood and bayonets to change this world and recast my road to the rise of China." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info life and death, life and death will not change! ”

This is the oath He Changying made when she crossed the heavy rain on the execution ground.

Then, he narrowly escaped his life.

Then, he and Ploppy bought and sold, wrote "Heroic Soul Sacrifice", wrote "The Scream", broke Ishikawa Wuyi's mental defense line in a few words, met Li Hongzhang, punched the baron of Tsarist Russia, killed the 'mixed star' of Jinmen, and hooked up with the daughter of a friend in Shanxian County-

Then, conscription, go to North Korea, Dongxian Ling, Shun'anyi, Zhisongwon, Hushan, Andong, Jinzhou, Dalian, all the way to the triumphant song, until now standing in Shanhaiguan.

His He Changying's books are famous all over the world.

His He Changying's achievements are famous all over the world.

He was young and lived in the second grade, holding tens of thousands of heavy soldiers, and the cohesion and combat power of this army were far stronger than the Hunan army and Huai army in the Qing Dynasty.

In just half a year, he He Changying has laid a world of his own and has a group of staunch followers.

He has begun to have the qualifications to win Kyushu.

But!

The oath of 'recasting my road to the rise of China' is far away, so that He Changying can't see any other side.

At this moment, this cannon roar easily shattered the thin shell that He Changying had shielded, but he had to face the world and his oath in that rain.

"How hard!"

He Changying's answer was not what he asked, and he sighed again.

"Boom!"

At this time, the second salvo of Japanese artillery began, and three projectiles, under the order of Nanshan Hideyoshi, concentrated on bombarding the North City Tower of Shanhaiguan.

At this time, twenty or thirty people were crowded into the tower.

Wang Liansan of Jiaoshan led his subordinates along the Western Great Wall and strode back to Jiaoshan.

The new Jiesheng battalions in Weiyuan City ran along the East Great Wall to Huanxi Ridge.

The rest of the banner soldiers defending the city, the Ting Army, and Mei Dongyi's Lu Yong, saw that the situation was not good, and they all ran down the Great Wall.

Only this group of banner soldiers on duty on the north city wall, the Thunder Army, did not dare to go down the city wall due to military orders, so they had to hide in the north city tower, hoping that the wall and brick roof of the city tower could block the terrifying flowering shells of the Japanese artillery.

And the corpses lying on the right city wall and the Qing soldiers who were seriously injured and screaming, no one was in the mood to deal with them at all.

"Boom!"

It was at this time that a new round of salvo fire by the Japanese began.

"God forbid!"

"Buddha blesses, I will serve you two hard dishes during the New Year!"

"Jade Emperor bless! Pity me for being old and young,-"

"Boom-"

This time, the three shells only burst suddenly after they landed.

One fell on the city behind the city walls, blowing down a large blue brick house.

The two fell on the ground in front of the north city wall, and the flames and black smoke accompanied by a thunderous roar exploded two mushroom clouds more than ten meters high.

"Oh-"

There was cheering on the upper floor of the north city of Shanhaiguan.

"What kind of bomb is this, so ferocious!"

When the smoke cleared, Li Jingfang looked at the two big pits outside Shanhaiguan City, put down the binoculars, and looked shocked.

"High-explosive bombs, which are the main weapons of the Japanese Combined Fleet now; However, the gunpowder in their high-explosive shells was Shimose gunpowder, which was more ferocious than black powder. ”

He Changying's face did not show joy and anger: "I arrived at a batch of German high-explosive bombs before, and Zhongtang promised to ration a batch of Lushun coastal defense batteries, but when Liu Duxian came, it was all gone. ”

Yao Mountain Slope.

"Yaga, you bunch of waste, you waste a lot of money that the empire has spent on nothing! You women should all go out and sell them to repay the Empire's precious silver! ”

Seeing that two high-explosive bombs had landed in the open space outside the city, Shinroku Kondo put down the binoculars in his hand and began to scold his head and face.

"Hey!"

Kusuyama Hideyoshi answered the order loudly, and Tetsu Qing yelled at the commander of the three guns in front of him with a blue face: "Are you waste? Is it a rice worm that wastes the Empire's grain in vain? Adjust the gun distance and reload the bombardment! ”

"Boom!"

The Japanese artillery fired another salvo, and a high-explosive bomb perfectly hit a corner of the north city tower in Shanhaiguan.

In He Changying's sight, the North City Tower was instantly shrouded in flames and smoke, and a large amount of smoke and dust.

Where the smoke and dust are scattered, the north city tower of Shanhaiguan no longer exists.

"Yo Xi, it's very good!"

Kondo Shinroku nodded in satisfaction and ordered: "Start cleaning up the Qing artillery." ”

Japanese Hanakopo, artillery position.

Okubo Toshisada stood in front of the position for a long time, and behind him, thirteen artillery pieces were loaded with high-explosive shells and were ready for battle.

However, the silent Kanwai Three Castles made Okubo Toshisada very disappointed.

"Could it be that these Qing troops really don't have modern artillery?"

Okubo Toshisada thought about it for a while, and also thought it was very possible.

The Western field artillery of the Qing Dynasty, in Zhili and the Northeast, was concentrated in the hands of the Beiyang Army.

Now the Beiyang Army is either compressed in Lushun, or it is beaten to the ice and snow north of Mukden to survive, and there is not a single new artillery in Shanhaiguan, which is not unusual.

I thought so in my heart, but Okubo Toshisada didn't let up at all, and still stood straight and stared at the shelling in the distance.

"Whew-"

Even on a sunny day, the north wind was still biting.

Behind him, the Japanese artillerymen were also in the cold wind, motionless waiting for a possible battle.

Yongping Mansion, Yuguan Daying.

After a noisy argument, the eye-popping six hundred fast guns were finally distributed.

The generals sat down in the lobby of Zhou Fu's camp office, drank tea, rested, and bragged.

At this time, there was a sudden slight roar in the big room.

"What? It's really strange that there is thunder on this cold day! ”

Mei Dongyi's master was also invited into the lobby this time because he had an old relationship with Zhou Fu.

Master Jia, who has always liked to drink flowers and wine and chant poems, was very uninterested in talking about Qiu Ba bragging in the lobby than military children, and when he was bored, he heard a faint thunder in his ears, and he couldn't help but be surprised and wanted to write a poem.

"Whoa—"

Nie Shicheng suddenly changed color and stood up, knocked the chairs behind him to the ground, and said in an exclamation: "It's not thunder, it's shelling!" The Japanese are attacking! ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole house changed color.

Soon, a group of fast horses rushed out of the Yuguan camp and went straight to Shanhaiguan.

However, by this time, the speed of the horse team had already slowed down, and it had become a slow and uniform march on weekdays.

Because Nie Shicheng and a group of generals from Shanhaiguan all heard that although these cannons were loud, they were very sparse, and they didn't look like they were going to attack at all.

You must know that this time the Japanese brought eighteen cannons, if the cannon group is fired together, the sound is absolutely earth-shattering, how can it be as weak as now.

On January 5, 1895, the 1st Heavy Artillery Wing of the Japanese Army dispatched a squadron of three fortress guns to bombard Shanhaiguan and Dongluo City.

During this period, which lasted about an hour, the general attack fired two solid armor-piercing shells, three grenade bombs, and one hundred and eleven high-explosive shells with black powder texture.

The battlements of the Shanhaiguan city wall were destroyed by a large number of blow-ups, and only two of the more than ten artillery pieces were not destroyed by Japanese artillery fire.

The three red-coated cannons of more than 4,000 catties on the head of Dongluo City were all blown up by Japanese artillery.

After one of them was hit by a 105mm caliber high-explosive shell, the high cannon body directly collapsed a 1.5-meter-deep inclined gap on the side of the city wall.

In Guancheng, Dongluo City, 21 houses were destroyed, 53 soldiers were killed, 19 were seriously injured, and countless minor injuries were inflicted.

After the shelling stopped, Nie Shicheng and the generals hurried back to Guancheng, looking at the messy north city wall in front of them.

All the generals are disgraced.
