613 The frightened Qing army

The Qing soldiers began to run towards the surrounding villages, and from the air, the light of the torches radiated around the barracks, and Lin Gecheng picked up the blue bird machine and asked: "How many shells are left in each airship?" ”

Lin Gecheng commanded on the Golden Hoop Stick, so the captain of the Golden Hoop Stick first reported: "The Golden Hoop Stick also has more than 100 shells for the Green Rapid Cannon and more than 20 105 mm grenades. ”

The other three airships also sent messages, and their remaining shells were about the same as the Golden Hoop Stick.

Lin Fei stipulated that the Monkey King airship must run out of shells before it can return to land, and it is absolutely not allowed to land with bullets, which is to prevent accidents and shell explosions when landing.

Lin Gecheng pondered for a moment and ordered: "Aim at the radial fire on the ground and throw cannonballs, fire cannonballs, give everyone ten minutes, shoot all the shells within ten minutes, and return after they are gone." ”

"Understood!" The captains of the four airships agreed, and then began to chase the Qing soldiers to bomb indiscriminately, and when throwing 105 mm caliber shells, there were no auxiliary equipment such as guide rails, but at the bottom of the pod of the Monkey King's airship, there was a bomb port, and the bombardier threw the shells down from this bomb port.

The reason why Lin Fei did not design a special guide rail was because it was difficult for the grenade to blow up accurately when it fell from the sky, and it was useless to design the guide rail.

The four airships bombarded indiscriminately, and the Qing soldiers suffered heavy casualties, at this time, the Qing soldiers finally reacted, the torches were the things to beat, and they extinguished the torches in their hands, and as soon as the torches were extinguished, the Monkey King airship in the sky suddenly lost its target, and it happened that the four Monkey King airships had almost hit all kinds of shells, and Ringo gave the order: "Return home." ”

The first thing Lin Gecheng did when he returned to the base was to listen to the statistics of the intelligence department's results, and Lin Gecheng couldn't see how many people were killed by the shells at an altitude of 2,000 meters, and he couldn't even see whether he was hit or not, and everything had to wait for the intelligence department of the theater to report on it.

However, Hainan is too far away from Guangzhou, and the news can't come for a while, so Lin Gecheng can only wait helplessly......

Lin Gecheng was waiting, but Yuan Shikai didn't have to wait, as soon as the morning dawned, he rushed to the barracks to investigate the sneak attack that happened last night.

As soon as Yuan Shikai entered the camp, he saw a miserable situation in the camp, the open space was full of large and small craters, there were two kinds of craters, one large and one small, the diameter of the large crater was five or six meters, and the depth was one or two meters.

Looking at the tents in the camp, there are countless downfalls, some of them are on fire, and now only ashes remain, and there are carts in the camp that pull grain, which have overturned and some are on fire.

Looking at the Qing soldiers in the camp, it is even more miserable, the Qing soldiers have already cleaned the battlefield preliminarily, and the corpses have been sorted out, put aside, lined up in a row, these corpses are not covered with white cloth, because last night was too chaotic, and the white cloth could not be found for a while.

Looking closely at the corpses, some of them were full of holes and mutilation, apparently killed by fragments of shells; Although some of them had no obvious wounds, they were bleeding from all their knots, and their clothes were torn, apparently killed by the shock wave.

The dead look extremely miserable, the appearance of the living is not much better, the shock wave washed away the braids of the Qing soldiers, many Qing soldiers were scattered, the shock wave also broke the clothes, many Qing soldiers were bare-assed, many Qing soldiers were injured by shrapnel, the Qing soldiers did not have a perfect military medical system like the Chinese army, in the Chinese army, on average, there was a military doctor for every ten soldiers (of course, this military doctor was not a professional doctor, but a trained medical nurse), and the Qing soldiers, a thousand soldiers had a military doctor, so the injured Qing soldiers had no one to treat, Showing bloody wounds, he couldn't stop screaming and moaning.

When Yuan Shikai saw his subordinates like this, he was furious and shouted, "Commander, come over to me!" ”

This time, Yuan Shikai marched with a total of three armies, one of which was his own new army, the second was the Qing army of Zhili, and the third was the Qing army of Shandong, the Qing army of Zhili and Shandong, each led by a commander, Yuan Shikai came to this camp, which was the station of the Qing army of Zhili, and Ma Yunfu, the commander of the Qing army of Zhili, hurriedly ran over, "My lord, I am here." ”

Yuan Shikai asked angrily: "How many people were killed and injured in total?" ”

"Lord Qiqi, more than 200 people were killed and more than 300 were injured in our direct subordinate department."

"What about the Shandong Division?"

"It's not clear what this lowly position is."

Yuan Shikai snorted angrily, and sent someone to call the commander of the Shandong Qing army to inquire about the situation of the Shandong Qing army, and Yuan Shikai's henchman New Army, who was not stationed here, was not attacked, which made Yuan Shikai very happy. Yuan Shikai's henchman, the New Army, was the most effective Qing army, and he escaped in this air raid.

Soon Zhao Mingyong, the commander of the Shandong Qing army, came to report that the Shandong Qing army also suffered heavy casualties, more than 300 people were killed and more than 400 people were injured. ”

Zhao Mingyong hurriedly said: "I have caught, a total of more than 500 thieves have been caught." ”

"Where are those people now?"

Zhao Mingyong pointed to the east with his hand, "We are detaining you over there." ”

"Take me to see it." Zhao Mingyong hurriedly took Yuan Shikai to see, Yuan Shikai was immediately annoyed when he saw those "thieves", only to see them kneeling on the ground one by one, trembling all over, many people were whining and crying, outside the crowd, surrounded by a large circle of Qing soldiers, outside the Qing soldiers, there was a large group of crying and crying women, many of whom were still holding children.

Yuan Shikai frowned, and said angrily: "Zhao Mingyong, did you arrest the nearby villagers as thieves?" ”

Zhao Mingyong was ashamed for a while, lowered his head, Yuan Shikai waved his hand impatiently, "Let these villagers go, let them all go, Lin Fei will be difficult enough to deal with, and you still arrest the villagers to cause chaos, it's just nonsense." ”

Zhao Mingyong hurriedly sent people to let the villagers go, and said helplessly: "My lord, we also want to catch the thieves, but there are really no thieves." ”

"Nonsense, how can there be no thieves, you look at these craters in the camp, if there are no thousands of thieves, where can they be hit?"

"My lord, it's really not, last night I chased ten miles to the east and north, and there was not a single thief at all, and I asked a lot of people on the way, and they said that they didn't even see the shadow of the thief." Zhao Mingyong saw that Yuan Shikai didn't believe himself, and a middle-aged man in his forties was about to cry.

Ma Yunfu also helped on the side: "Yes, my lord, there are really no thieves, I took people to the west and south to chase twenty miles, and they all chased to the beach, and I didn't see the thieves." ”

Yuan Shikai stomped his foot fiercely and scolded angrily: "Shut up, don't say it again, if there are no thieves, then where did the cannonballs that hit us come from, from the sky?" ”

Ma Yunfu and Zhao Mingyong lowered their heads and were silent, Yuan Shikai couldn't imagine that the cannonballs that hit them really came from the sky......

Yuan Shikai saw that Ma Yunfu and Zhao Mingyong didn't speak, scolded "waste" in a low voice, and then said: "Be vigilant tonight, don't let the snitch come to steal the camp again." ”

Ma Yunfu and Zhao Mingyong hurriedly agreed, and ordered: "No one is allowed to sleep tonight, and I will be honestly guarded." ”

Yuan Shikai, Ma Yunfu and Zhao Mingyong were confused and confused, and the Qing soldiers below were even more confused and confused, some Qing soldiers felt that last night's shells came from the sky, but they didn't dare to report this matter to the high-level, so they secretly said to the people around them: "Do you know where the shells came from last night, heaven!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, how can cannonballs fall from the sky!"

"It's true, I saw a flash in the sky last night, and these shells are coming down from the sky!"

“……”

"In my opinion, Lin Fei of Huaxia is an immortal, and he has invited the heavenly soldiers and generals to recite mantras......

"There are heavenly soldiers and generals in Huaxia, his grandmother is a bear, and he will fight a grandson in this battle......" Rumors spread in the Qing army, and people were panicked.

In July last year, Lin Fei drove away the Portuguese invaders and recovered Macao, which became an outpost for the Chinese Empire to monitor the Qing Dynasty.

The Huaxia agents summed up the casualties and morale of the Qing soldiers, sent them to Hainan Island, and sent them to Lin Gecheng, who was very happy to see that more than 1,000 Qing soldiers had been killed and wounded in the first battle last night, and saw that the Qing soldiers did not set off or move the camp, so he immediately decided to attack the Qing soldiers again.

The Huaxia agents specifically wrote in the report that the Qing soldiers did not know what the airship was, so they were very afraid of the airship, so Lin Gecheng decided that this attack would be carried out at night, deepening the fear of the Qing soldiers.

The Huaxia agent mentioned in the report that the military camp bombed last night was the camp of the Qing army in Shandong and the Qing army in Zhili, and the camp of Yuan Shikai's henchman New Army was not bombed.

Lin Gecheng was disappointed when he saw this news, because Lin Gecheng heard Lin Fei say that the Qing army that came this time had the strongest combat effectiveness of Yuan Shikai's henchman New Army, and other Qing armies could not be compared with Yuan Shikai's henchman New Army, and only by inflicting heavy damage on Yuan Shikai's New Army could they defeat the Qing Army.

Lin Gecheng then decided to set out tonight to bomb the camp of Yuan Shikai's henchmen and new army, but there was a problem that had to be solved, that is, the camp of Yuan Shikai's henchmen and new army could not be seen from the air.

Lin Gecheng then came up with a solution, that is, let the Huaxia agents light the fire outside the new military camp area of Yuan Shikai's henchmen, and use the fire light to indicate the target for the Monkey King airship in the air, but with the combat effectiveness of Yuan Shikai's henchman New Army, can the Huaxia agents light the fire outside the barracks?
