"Kill your enemies in the simplest and most straightforward way, and you will be able to defeat them both mentally and spiritually!" After the war, an officer said this to his soldiers.

Just after the frenzied Japanese army rushed through the three blockade lines at an extremely heavy cost, they were greeted by a group of Beiyang soldiers who had already been prepared. Each group is armed with rifles, combat pistols, and offensive grenades, with lobster-like armor at the forefront.

When the Japanese found that their ferocity could not deter the other side, they themselves became weak, became afraid, and became shrinking. "Kill!" With the captain's command, the Beiyang Army launched a killing campaign against the Japanese soldiers who rushed into the trenches! Grenadiers armed with offensive grenades occasionally threw grenades outside cover to block support.

And the soldier armed with the box cannon became the main force of killing, and at close range, the high rate of fire, the large charge of the box gun with the butt against the shoulder was undoubtedly a formidable weapon...... With the constantly beating muzzle flames, the rain-like bullets easily penetrated the thin military uniforms of the Japanese army, rolling and deforming in the human body, and these bullets cut through the warhead and armor, and when they were shot into it, it was a small hole, and when it came out, it was a big hole with the mouth of the bowl. The Japanese army struggled to fall, looking at the wounds on their bodies in some disbelief, and under shock and fear, they ended a life of guilt ..........

The soldiers standing at the front with rifles with bayonets in their hands relied on their skillful assassination skills and heavy armor to cover their comrades behind them. Although the heavy armor on his body brings good defense, after all, he can't block rifle bullets at close range. And the limbs that were not protected also became the focus of the Japanese army's attack. In the face of this cold and shining bayonet, these sons and daughters of China did not flinch or give in. They were pierced into blood gourds in time. He also rushed to the enemy line with several grenades, and in a burst of explosions, groups of Japanese soldiers were killed. But more people are afraid, they are afraid. They ran into people who were even more desperate than them, and in the face of these people in heavy armor with rifles in their hands and "glorious bullets" strapped to their bodies, the Japanese suddenly realized that it was impossible for them to break through this line of defense, even if only one percent of the Beiyang Army dared to do so. I will definitely replace all these remaining Japanese troops!

When hope is completely gone, the fierce will lose the confidence to fight. The Japanese began to retreat. They began to abandon the attack and look for a place to hide, hoping that the other side would not find them, and even some people threw away their weapons and began to run out of the trenches. But in the face of a close-range fire strike system consisting of bayonets, box guns at medium distance, and machine guns at long distances, these escaped people could not run 100 meters before they were beaten into a sieve by flying bullets! …。

The first wave of Japanese attacks was defused. But that doesn't mean the offensive is a failure. With the support of the artillery units regardless of their own losses, and under the supervision and cover of the Gatling guns in the rear, more and more Japanese troops rushed through the blockade line and poured up like a tide! Seen from above, pairs of soldiers converged in a stream of soldiers, who crossed the trenches, rushed over the minefields, over the broken barricades, and rushed towards the Beiyang positions, a wave of charges cut by machine guns and artillery. Another wave of charges arrived, and those Japanese officers did not care about their men, and under the ethereal temptation of imperial hegemony, they screamed wildly and shouted hysterically, encouraging themselves and their men to use their lives to attack the defense system of the Beiyang Army.

"The main offensive of the Japanese army has begun, and I think that the Japanese First Army has already invested all the troops that can fight in this battle. After this battle. The backbone of the First Army of the Japanese Army will be broken by us, right? Peng Yi looked at the battle report on the front line and said thoughtfully. Now send a report to Lord Huang and Hannagan to teach us, and our 8-inch artillery railway artillery can be powerful! ”…。

And just after the order was delivered, a full 18 8-inch Armstrong guns converted into train guns were making final preparations. Because of the long range, all the Japanese artillery could not pose a threat to this artillery at all. So in order to increase the rate of fire. Piles of shells and propellants are piled up near the gun position, the artillerymen under the command of the commander, for a shell on the timing fuse, in order to deal with the group of infantry, the Beiyang artillery is specially equipped with 8-inch level grenade bombs, unlike the bump fuse used by the navy, the army in order to kill and injure the opponent as much as possible, the use of timing fuse, if lucky, the shell will explode right above the head of the opposing assault force!. …。

After all the preparations were in place, the 8-inch railway cannon in Beiyang would finally let out a deafening roar. They will finally shatter the illusion of victory for the Japanese army. As the observation post at the height transmits the data. The Beiyang heavy artillery unit completed the final preparations, not only the 8-inch railway guns, but also the 240 shore guns began to shift the target after completing the suppression of the Japanese 280mm heavy artillery, and the 6-inch howitzers and some 120mm cannons in the rear also lowered the muzzle.

"Fire!" Accompanied by the gun commander's repeated command to open the cannon...... All the remaining artillery groups in Beiyang will herald a rain of bullets of destruction towards the Japanese charging troops! The hours-long artillery battle has almost destroyed the Japanese front-line artillery, and the remaining remnants of the artillery group have very limited damage to the Beiyang Army, and the Beiyang heavy artillery unit that has been freed up at this time will completely defeat the Japanese attack!

Shells rained down from the sky, and from a distance, the entire back of the Golden State Line was shrouded in smoke and fire fired from artillery. Different artillery pieces carried out all-round suppression of the attacking Japanese army according to the different firing ranges. From the Japanese troops rushing to the front of the position, to the Japanese troops who are charging, and even to the position where the Japanese attack was initiated, almost all enemy forces will be under the attack of various artillery! …。

"In this moment, I saw the end of the world, Japan, my homeland, the scene where the sun that was supposed to rise was finally completely overwhelmed by the dragon's wrath. Even at a great distance from the front line. I still feel the tremor of the beating, and I can still see the battlefield shrouded in dust and smoke. In the telescope, hordes of soldiers are wiped out in the next second by powerful cannonballs. We're done. It's all over. Katsura Taro wrote in his diary.

The tragedy of the war can already be seen from Katsura Taro's diary, but if the soldiers present were to comment on the situation of the First Battle of Golden State, they would definitely shake their heads and say: "Katsura Taro, this egg, has no idea what we have seen and what we will face!" ”

"The world in front of me has only two colors, red, which means fire and soldiers' flesh, and black, which means flying steel balls and shrapnel. At this moment, it seemed that time had become unusually slow, and under the blow of flames and shrapnel in the sky, under the attack of steel balls covering no dead ends like raindrops, we were like ants being wiped out in pieces. We can't fight against such forces, and we shout trying to temper the fear in our hearts through emotional release. But it was all in vain, because we couldn't hear ourselves at all, and more than once I saw my comrades in front of me turn into a pile of minced meat in the next second, and some of them were still crawling after being knocked off half of their bodies. One of the brothers next to me walked over and wanted to give him a good time. But 2 seconds later, he was blown to pieces by a cannonball along with the dying man. I don't know how I survived in the end, I will know that after the end of this war, I lost my left hand and left leg, and as many as 33 pieces of shrapnel were removed from me. -- Excerpt from "A Veteran's Diary" ..........

After several hours of fighting, the battle, known as the Great Victory of Jinzhou in Beiyang, the Battle of Sunset by the Japanese, and the Jinzhou Meat Grinder by the West, finally ended at dusk, and the Japanese First Army lost more than 7,200 people in just one day. A large number of losses in personnel, weapons and ammunition were consumed in exchange for nothing but being beaten and bloodied on the defense line of the Beiyang. At this time, whether it was Beiyang or the Japanese army, they all knew that the outcome of this war had been decided, and the Japanese army, which had lost most of its heavy artillery and a large number of infantry, really did not have the strength to organize a new attack! …。

Huge attrition and crumbling morale made the largest Japanese offensive a resounding sound. Although in the following days, the Japanese army organized night raids and small-scale infiltration operations, but they were all smashed in front of the rock-solid defense line of the Beiyang Army! Although the entire Battle of Golden State lasted 1 week, the result was already decided on the first day! The rest is just garbage time!

And when the Japanese base camp received the battle report of the Battle of Jinzhou...... They knew that it was time to consider an armistice, not only because the loss of sea supremacy was just around the corner, nor because of the huge losses outside the city of Golden State, but because they suddenly found that the assistance of the Russians and Americans was gone! Without the slightest warning, without a diplomatic note, the Russians suddenly cut off supplies to the front, and Ito Hirobumi did not know what was happening. But he knew that the sky was about to change! Maybe in the next moment, Japan will fall into the abyss, and there will be no return! …。

And at this time, just as the Battle of Jinzhou came to an end, the long-disappeared Russian fleet finally showed its feet, and at this time, the Beiyang Fleet, which had taken a short break, decided to launch the final blow against the last hostile force in the Far East! After this battle. In the next 5 years, there will not be a single navy that will be able to challenge the Beiyang Fleet! As for the negotiations of the Russians? Xu Jie still thinks that it is good to at least beat the Russians again, after all, it is not a good thing for Beiyang to let the Russians get the whole of Hokkaido, and letting the Russians keep more blood is only good for Beiyang!

This is the end of the land battle, it's time to deal with the remaining Russian fleet, let's support it a lot~~~
