Chapter 860: New Soldiers

Liaodong, the lush green field is dusty, Xiongfang, who has become the captain of the Anton Weishui Division, with more than a dozen brothers, riding horses and running on the official road, he is going to return to his alma mater, the Naval Academy, to see Li Lan, who has been thinking about it for a long time, and Li Lan has stayed in school to teach with excellent grades.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw a group of old and weak women and children in front of him, carrying burdens on their backs, driving donkeys along a ditch, as if they were running for their lives in a hurry.

Seeing this, Xiongfang reined in the horse's reins, and because of his strength, the horse raised its hooves high, and hurried up with him, and inquired about one of the old men in his fifties.

"Uncle, which village are you from? Why run? ”

The old man hurriedly said: "There are countless widows on the beach, and as soon as they go ashore, they kill people everywhere and set fires. ”

"Widows?" Xiong was furious, grabbed the musket on his back, and ordered: "Sixth, you take someone into the city to inform, let the county lord give the order to attack, and the rest of the brothers will follow me to kill the Japanese Kou, while the Japanese are rampant and have no scruples, let's kill them once, and also buy some time for the people to escape." ”

Liaodong County Lord's Mansion, Zhu Qiaoqiao, who had just returned, stood on the high platform with his eyebrows tightened, and he was unexpectedly attacked by the Japanese people, could it be that he came to retaliate against me for the slave trade?

Zhu Qiaoqiao sneered: "Order, I want to let these self-defeating Japanese people go and never return, and order the whole army to be killed!" A head is a tael of silver. ”

The 1,000 guards below suddenly agreed, rode horses and galloped to the scene of the incident, and the 20,000 defenders of the entire city also poured out.

Zhu Qiaoqiao was not worried about the city defense, the city of Dalian was impregnable, it could be said that it was second only to Jinling, and the latest artillery was erected everywhere, and the five thousand defenders were enough to resist ten times the enemy.

At the same time, Li Lan ignored Mak Feirong's dissuasion and insisted on following the students to kill the enemy.

In an instant, the offended would-be robbers stabbed the hornet's nest. In this important coastal town, which can be called the most well-armed and the strongest soldiers, thousands of soldiers and civilians who got the news rushed to the coast from all directions.

Thousands of Japanese slaughtered the fishing village, ransacked houses with their swords, killed any male creature they saw, and raped any woman they saw.

In the past, because of the ocean currents, and because of the barrenness and desolation of Liaodong, the Japanese rarely paid attention to this place, but now Liaodong is a household name in the Japanese country. Everyone knows that the merchants of Liaodong are rich in the first place, and it is one of the richest places.

The continuous war in the Wa Kingdom made it impossible to live without food and clothing, and there were not many areas where the shogunate could really control it. This time, it was the ronin from several northern regions who colluded with experienced Japanese robbers in an attempt to make a fortune in Liaodong, and the most fundamental purpose was to grab the coveted Daemei firearms and craftsmen, so several ambitious daimyo were involved.

The Japanese in the fishing village came to send them to their deaths, and according to the navigation charts, they came all the way from Bohai Bay, and luckily avoided the patrol warship. The purpose of sending the Japanese to death was to divert the attention of the Ming army.

An elite force of 500 high-ranking samurai and ninja troops, according to information heard over the past few years, is destined for the Naval Academy by the sea.

Nearly 1,000 students quickly formed a team and before leaving. Mai Feirong was anxious, and rarely yelled at the women, which forced Li Lan and other girls to stay.

More than half of the people rushed to the rescue of the fishing village, and the academy only had less than two hundred people left. The rest are instructors' family members and other personnel.

Faced with the encirclement of tens of thousands of people in Dalian, the fate of those self-sufficient widows in the fishing village can be imagined.

Li Lan stood on the lookout with a newly developed carbine. From time to time, I looked into the distance with a telescope, and the overwhelming gunshots rang out, and I said hatefully: "Hit hard, kill these bad guys." ”

Seeing that the battle situation easily turned into a one-sided situation, dozens of warships on the sea also surrounded them, fired a round of artillery, and the rumbling explosions were endless.

Wang Jia, a female teacher who was in a relaxed mood, asked, "Lan'er, Xiongfang is coming back, you should make up your mind, right?" The three of you have been entangled for so many years, you have to make a choice, you can't drag it out any longer, and if you drag it out any longer, you will become an old girl. ”

Li Lan smiled bitterly and suddenly shouted, "Look, the birds in the forest have been frightened, and there must be many people hiding there." ”

Sure enough, knowledge is power, and at this juncture, good people will not hide in the dense forest, and no one thinks that Li Lan is making a fuss.

At that moment, Li Lan couldn't help but say, and came out of the academy with twenty people, lurking under the trunk of the road that must be passed, wanting to observe nearby. Not wanting this move to be discovered by the condescending leader of the Japanese Bandits, knowing that his whereabouts had been exposed, he drew his war knife and shouted, and five hundred people rushed down.

Unexpectedly, the Japanese people actually used firearms, obviously prepared, and also relied on trees to shield, and people on both sides raised firearms at the same time to shoot at each other.

The projectiles flew sideways, and the trainees immediately lay down on the ground, and after the firing of a gun, they nervously reloaded their ammunition. Li Lan, who was also squatting, suddenly thought that everyone was lying down, the terrain was low, and he couldn't see the movements of the bad guys clearly, why don't I stand on the tree and look at the other side, so that I can pass the news to the big guy at any time.

With such a slender body, she flexibly climbed onto a thick poplar tree, people can hide, but they must poke their heads out from time to time, and Li Lan shoots at the enemy dozens of meters away with one hand with skillful marksmanship, while suppressing fire, while observing the movement on the battlefield, and then throwing the gun down, Wang Jia and other women are responsible for loading.

Several female trainees did not have any experience, and when they saw someone standing up and shooting, they also stood up and shot flat with unskilled marksmanship, but fortunately they were not injured, just because the projectile of the Japanese could not hit so far. From afar, I saw that six or seven of them were wounded, and the blood stained the black soil, and the excitement overwhelmed the fear.

Just as the leader of the Japanese invaders realized that the number of enemies in front of him was not large, and tried to take it down in one fell swoop, he took the lead in a frenzied rush, and suddenly a bunch of strange things jumped out in front of him, and then a rumbling sound broke out around him, and the fire that rushed to the sky was overwhelming, and the Japanese people were rolling on the ground crying and shouting for their mothers, and there were scattered corpses everywhere.

"Yay!" Li Lan, who had made great contributions, clenched his fists, participated in a battle for the first time in his life, and heard such a dense and fierce grenade explosion for the first time, such a loud and terrifying gunshot, and inevitably felt a sense of fear in his heart, and a sense of freshness.

Suddenly, she panicked, her hands trembled, she grabbed and grabbed it, pursed her lips, and ordered herself fiercely, as if an invisible god made a sacred voice above her head: You must be calm, calm, and look at death as if you were at home, you are facing a notorious foreign enemy, and as a soldier, you have the duty to guard the territory and protect the people.

The joy of being reborn, the fabulous moment filled his whole body, Li Lan suddenly felt that his whole body was full of strength, his hands were no longer trembling, and he shot the enemy one after another calmly and vigorously, without regard for his own danger.

An angry voice came from under the tree: "Are you looking for death?" If you don't listen to the command and let you out, go back at once. ”

Principal Li personally took over the position with a hundred people, Li Lan, who was lying on the tree, was stunned, grievances welled up in his heart, tears filled his eyes, and he was also moved by the principal to personally bring people to meet them, anyway, he was proud and his face was hot, he seemed to be a hero, and he was also a soldier who acted without obeying orders

With the command of Principal Li, the officers and soldiers of the four nearby outposts were outflanked by multiple routes, and the battle ended in less than half an hour, and all 500 Japanese were annihilated. It can only be said that the Japanese underestimated the Daming Naval Academy.

As soon as the battle between the two places ended, out of nowhere, ordinary people, young and old, as well as many women, all rushed up to surround Li Lan and the others, and in the woods, people cheered and shouted.

"This battle is really happy, so many widows, you all slaughtered the dogs at once, our Liaodong soldiers are really the best in the world!"

"If you fight too fast, these ghosts will go to hell in a blink of an eye, and they can no longer harm our Han people, God really has eyes, so that they will never be able to live beyond their lives."

Just as Li Lan was fluttering, the cry came, on the bloodstained corpse of the Japanese Kou, an old lady who had escaped from a fishing village took off her shoes and hit the head of the Japanese with the soles of her shoes, crying while beating: "My hard-working girl, if the officials and soldiers had come a moment earlier and beat to death these wicked people who should have been cut with a thousand knives, they would not have forced you to jump into the well!" ”

Li Lan ignored the dust, ran to the old lady, and pulled her up: "What happened to your daughter?" ”

"Jumped into the well and died! As soon as these wicked people entered the village, they killed and robbed people, and the girl was unwilling to be humiliated, so she was chased and ran to the mouth of the well and jumped down. ”

The old lady cried, her face pale, and she fell into Li Lan's arms and passed out as she spoke. The people hurried around.

Li Lan put the old lady down on the ground, and ran over a female student with a slender figure and a red cross around her shoulder, hurriedly unbuttoned the old lady's blouse, and skillfully began to breathe.

The people were amazed and admired, and the female students were engrossed in pressing the old lady's chest, taking a deep breath, and in less than half a minute, the old lady woke up.

The people around were thunderous, and some women shouted happily: "Old sister-in-law, you see, it is this handsome girl who rescued you!" She is also a female officer. ”

The female student corrected seriously: "I am a female soldier of the academy, not a female officer. ”

People asked in confusion: "Aren't soldiers just officers and soldiers, what's the difference?" ”

Li Lan said with a smile: "We are new soldiers who defend the homeland and the country, not officials and soldiers who fight for corrupt officials and corrupt officials, we are defending the country and the nation, not the old soldiers who fought at a loss and did not know why." ”

A scholar said, "Aren't all the officers and soldiers fighting for the king? What is important is loyalty and patriotism. ”

Li Lan patiently explained: "That's right, it's not right!" If the current saint is a faint monarch like Emperor Yang of Sui and Emperor Huizong of Song, how can he be a soldier to suppress the heroes of Liangshan who are acting for the heavens? The people of Jiangshan Sheji are more important than the emperor at dawn, this is what the virtuous monarch said. (To be continued......)
