At this time, although it was already the beginning of the third lunar month, the temperature in Mukden was still firmly welded below freezing, the mountains were covered with snow, and the rivers were frozen.

The long procession of Japanese troops marched on the frozen bed of the Hunhe River, with ice-covered forests on both sides, and the sun above their heads shone warmly on the bodies of the marching Japanese soldiers.

It's just that they have only been out of the city for more than ten miles, and many soldiers are sweating all over.

And the sick and wounded soldiers lying on the sleigh were pulled by the coolies and swayed to death, and they couldn't stop vomiting and moaning and screaming.

"Baga, steadily, steadily, steadily,—— bastard!"

The Japanese infantry who saw this scene were all furious and picked up the butts of their guns and severely beat the hard labor of the Qing Dynasty that had been forcibly recruited.

And these Daqing coolies who were beaten to the point of bleeding all gritted their teeth and endured the pain, not daring to say a word.

Komatsuzaki saw that the men and horses were tired, so he hesitated whether to let the soldiers rest for a while before leaving, anyway, the war was over, and the troops were not in a hurry.

At this moment, a 'bang' gunfire was suddenly heard in his ears, which shook his scalp and made his scalp tingle.

The sound of gunfire was curling, rolling in the entire river, mountain and forest.

"Whoa-la-"

The sudden explosion of gunfire shook some of the ice hangers in the forest, which had reached the critical burden, and left the branches and leaves of the trees one after another, and smashed to the ground.

The falling ice hanging, hitting the branches and leaves along the way, 'crackling' and bursting, actually triggered a greater chain reaction.

For a time, the woods on both sides of the entire river were all falling ice hangings, causing ice and snow to fly in the mountains and forests on both sides.

Seeing this situation, everyone in the Japanese infantry on the riverbed was shocked, and almost forgot the gunfire of the culprit who caused this scene.

"Baga, who is shooting? This bastard! ”

On the long river, more than 1,500 Japanese troops, as well as 300 Fengtian people who were forcibly recruited to pull sleds, lined up a long queue of more than a mile.

The gunfire just now was sudden and rolling in all directions of the river, and Komatsuzaki Rikuma couldn't figure out if the guns of the soldiers in the team had gone off.

However, before he could get an answer from his subordinates, Komatsuzaki Rikuma had already gotten the answer.

At his feet, the entire ice of the Hunhe River was shaking violently, shaking his whole body and his heart trembling.

"Boom, boom, boom-"

Immediately, the air of the entire river was filled with the sound of horses' hooves rolling and trampling.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack, pick-up, pick-up! Bastards, these shameless pigs! ”

Komatsuzaki Lio roared in anger: "It's the cavalry charge, pick up, pick up, stop them!" ”

"Tick Tick Tick Tick-"

A loud trumpet resounded throughout the river.

"Aid to the DPRK army, it is to aid the DPRK army!"

"Yaga, isn't there a contract already? Why are these bastards still fighting, what do they want to do! ”

"Raise your gun, raise your gun!"

In the midst of a shout of rage, at the bend of the southern river, a large group of cavalry of the new army dressed as a Western-style army commander rushed out.

In the galloping of the horses, a war knife raised high glittered in the sun.

"Shoot, shoot to stop them, stop them!"

Seeing the Qing cavalry on the southern river, Komatsuzaki knew clearly that once these cavalry were allowed to successfully rush into the Japanese ranks, there would be a terrible massacre below.

So he yelled desperately and ordered the soldiers to raise their guns to stop them.

"Lift the machine gun on the sled, reload the chain, reload the chain, immediately, immediately!"

Matsumoto Keii Shaosa, who was in charge of two Green guns and two Makqin machine guns, ordered in a hurry.

"Bang, bang—"

"Shoot, shoot now!"

At this time, all the officers of the Japanese army also knew very well in their hearts what bloody consequences would be once the cavalry rushed into the ranks.

They shouted loudly and ordered the soldiers to gather in rows of southward firing lines to stop the charge of the Qing cavalry.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

Suddenly there was a loud gunfire on the river, and flakes of gunpowder smoke rose up.

"Yu—"

The cavalry of the New Army, which was at the forefront of the southern river charge, was beaten into a sieve by the dense bullets along with the war horses, and the war horses neighed and raised their front hooves, and smashed into the river ice bloodily.

"Yo Xi, just ——, Baga, shoot, shoot, kill them! Green cannon, Maxim machine gun, Baga, waste! So slow? Set it up immediately and annihilate these Qing pigs! ”

Seeing the charge of the Qing cavalry in the southern river, beaten by the dense flow of bullets, Komatsuzaki couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Jumping and jumping, he ordered the soldiers to continue firing south, and cursed a group of machine gunners who had not yet assembled their machine guns.

"Kill!"

Suddenly, in the mountains and forests on both sides of the river valley, there was a large roar, which shook the Japanese soldiers on the river and looked at the mountains and forests on both sides in horror.

I saw that in the mountains and forests on both sides, countless war horses lined up in a linear line of attack, stepping on the snow in the forest, flexibly bypassing the big trees, and rushing towards the river.

"There's an ambush, Baga, these bunches of damn cunning bastards!"

At this time, Komatsuzaki finally knew which side hit the first gunshot.

- These cavalrymen just want to clear the falling ice in the woods on both sides in advance, and clear the way for the cluster charge at this time!

"Stop, stop!"

"The second squadron is going west to take over, take over!"

"Machine guns, machine guns, Yaga, pigs, pigs, get ready!"

"Shoot east, immediately change the muzzle and shoot east!"

Ritsuo Komatsuzaki, Keizo Yamaguchi, and Yoshijiro Ohara were all frightened and screamed as they tried to reorganize a new defensive line.

"Stump, Tread, Tread—"

However, how could the cavalry regiment of the New Army give the Japanese such an opportunity, from the second and third battalions on both flanks to the charge, to rush into the river, but it took less than a minute.

"Kill!"

With the roar of the cavalry, one after another broadswords slashed at the frightened Japanese infantry like lightning, instantly disrupting the Japanese army into a mess and dividing it into scattered fragments.

In particular, the two Grimm guns and the two Maxim machine guns were slaughtered by the cavalry of the New Army.

"Form a ring formation, huddle together tightly back to back, raise your gun and shoot!"

Seeing this chilling scene, Komatsuzaki Rikuma wanted to resist to the death, but the entire river was full of yelling, gunshots, slashing knives, and heart-rending screams, and no soldier could notice his order.

"Shoot, shoot, Imperial—"

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Several cavalrymen of the New Army noticed this Japanese officer who was guarded by a group of Japanese soldiers in the middle, holding an Oriental sword and shouting, and since the knife could not be reached, they opened fire directly.

After a series of gunshots, Komatsuzaki was not only shot several times, but also had his head shot directly.

"Dazuo!"

"Commander!"

The Japanese soldiers who saw this scene shouted in horror.

"Kill them all! Not a single one to stay! ”

Qu Desheng rode on the war horse, drove the war horse to kick to death a Japanese soldier who stabbed him with a spear, and shot a Japanese soldier who tried to flee with a pistol, and ordered loudly: "Kill all their blood and blood and use their corpses to feed the wild wolves in the mountains!" ”

"Kill all these dogs!"

Meng Zhou, the commander of the cavalry regiment, also roared with excitement: "Kill Pyongyang, kill Seoul, kill Busan!" ”

"Kill to Busan, kill to Busan!"

Because the New Army required the company clerk to teach all the soldiers to read and write, all the soldiers of the cavalry regiment were familiar with the map of Korea, and they all shouted with excitement.

At the same time, the broadsword slashed at the head of the Japanese army in the river again and again.

The bloody killing was carried out tragically in the river, and after Komatsuzaki Rikuma Osa was shot in the head, Yamaguchi Keizo Shaosa, Ohara Yoshijiro Shaosa, and Matsumoto Keii Shaosa were hacked to death one by one by the cavalry's broadsword.

Soon, there was not a single Japanese soldier standing in the entire river, and the cavalry of the New Army jumped off their horses to deal with the battlefield.

"Ahh

In a short time, a rapid scream sounded in the river, indicating that another Japanese soldier had his head cut off by the broadsword of the cavalry regiment.

"Tadd, step, step—"

Qu Desheng, Lu Tiejiao, Mengzhou, and the three of them gathered together.

"If you go south now, I don't know if you can catch up with the big battle on Lushun's side?"

Lu Tiejiao looked in the direction of Lushun from afar, with an unwilling face.

"Don't dream, the commander-in-chief has an order before, go to North Korea immediately after taking Mukden, the Yalu River Military Region has recruited another North Korean infantry battalion and a baggage battalion for us, and we must immediately go to Anzhou to join Fang Dahai; Blocked the remnants of the 9th Brigade in Pyongyang and fled east across the river. ”

Qu Desheng didn't have any big thoughts about Lushun.

Let him choose, he believes that his brothers, including his brothers in the cavalry regiment who changed from the 6th battalion of the Sheng army, will not hesitate to choose to enter Pyongyang.

In that city, there are too many memories of the blood of the Sheng army.

"Our cavalry regiment, an infantry battalion, and nearly a thousand guerrilla troops in Fang Hai are as long as they can annihilate the Japanese army in Anzhou;"

Meng Zhou pondered and said: "You can call Lushun, and you don't have to wait for the Jinmen Brigade to launch the Pyongyang Campaign." ”

"So what are you waiting for, go south, go south!"

Qu Desheng laughed.

"Not going to Mukden?"

Lu Tiejiao looked at a corner of the city wall under the sky in the north, and was a little moved: "I heard that Song Qing and Zhang Gaoyuan are still blocked in the north, why don't we go over and humiliate them?" ”

"No, we don't know them well, I guess I saw this group of Hanako, and I'm worried about the guns we have in hand."

Qu Desheng looked at the two Makqin machine guns, and smiled with admiration: "Fortunately, it's a surprise battle!" With this sharp weapon, the Japanese army in Pyongyang is also all scum! ”

Soon, the cavalry regiment used war horses to pull a large amount of captured military resources and directly turned south.

All that remained on the river were the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, large patches of frozen blood, and 300 undead Mukden coolies like a dream.
