Seto Tatsumasa of the 25th Division came to Hunchun first and was preparing to move forward to single-handedly eliminate the new anti-alliance regiment in Wujiashan. At this moment, Yamashita Fengfumi's telegram was placed in front of him .
Yamashita Tomofumi's telegram was very clear, telling Seto Tatsumasa to temporarily stop advancing and wait for the arrival of the remaining four divisions behind him before attacking together to avoid being defeated by Xu Rui one by one.
After Seto Tatsumasa received this telegram, he immediately formed a ball and threw it aside. He had 20,000 subordinates, while Xu Rui only had 5,000 soldiers. The art of war was well known, so he doubled the number to attack, not to mention that his number of soldiers was four times that of Xu Rui. , with such a huge gap in strength between the two sides, there was no need for him to listen to Yamashita Fengwen's words and wait for the rest of the divisions to act together.
Seto Tatsumasa was very arrogant and believed that Yamashita Fengfumi's giving him this order was a distrust and insult to himself. He could not execute such an order.
Japanese soldiers have always had a tradition of disobedience. It was a few disobedient mid-level officers who planned the Liutiao Lake incident and killed the Northeast King Zhang Zuolin.
Those who launched the September 18th Incident were also some disobedient Japanese military officers. The Japanese military has always been very tolerant of these acts of disobedience. In their view, if disobedience will have good results, then it is correct. This conniving behavior of the Japanese military has made disobedience a trend in the Japanese army. , Incidents of disobedience to orders abound in battles, which the Japanese military did not expect.
At this time, Seto Tatsumasa believed that Yamashita Tomofumi did not believe in him, or simply wanted to hand over the credit to the guys in the First Division in order to make friends with the high-ranking officials of the Japanese army. This was something he could not tolerate.
Therefore, Seto Tatsumasa threw aside Yamashita Harufumi's order, and prepared to use the 25th Division's own strength to attack Huanglong and kill the five families of Yamane Tatsuki. Seto Tatsumasa ordered the entire army to march towards Heading to Wujiashan.
The 25th Artillery Regiment is affiliated to the 25th Division. The entire Regiment has 36 105 mm caliber mountain guns. The Regiment Commander Tokugawa Shinichi.
Tokugawa is a noble surname in Japan. The Tokugawa shogunate established by Tokugawa Ieyasu ruled Japan for hundreds of years. It was not until modern times that it was overthrown by Satsuma and other southwestern Tibetans, and the power returned to the hands of the emperor.
As a descendant of the Tokugawa family, Tokugawa Nobu has always been proud of his name. He feels that it is his responsibility to let the great Tokugawa surname shine again in Japan.
When he was ordered to advance towards Wujiashan, Tokugawa Shinichi had a feeling that his chance to revive the Tokugawa family had finally arrived.
There is no doubt that Xu Rui was the most troublesome opponent that Japan encountered during the entire war of aggression against China. How many generals fell at the hands of Xu Rui, and even the emperor was frightened because of him. If he could defeat Xu Rui , then it will definitely become famous and become the pride of Japan, and then revitalizing the Tokugawa family will be just around the corner.
Therefore, Tokugawa Shinichi continued to urge the troops to speed up their advance, closely following the footsteps of the infantry in front.
It was already late at night, and Tokugawa Shinichi had not rested yet. He stayed in his tent and kept looking at the information and maps of Tengyu Wujiashan.
At this moment, Tokugawa Shinichi felt the ground begin to tremble. With many years of experience in marching and fighting, Tokugawa Shinichi could determine that this was the tremor caused by the running of a large group of cavalry.
Tokugawa Shinichi couldn't help but frown. As far as he knew, the cavalry regiment of the 25th Division should have passed Hunchun long ago and could not appear here. He had not heard of any cavalry coming from the rear, so there was only one left. One possibility is that Chinese cavalry came to sneak attack and rob the camp.
Thinking of this, Tokugawa Shinichi was startled. He immediately lifted the door curtain and walked out of the tent. He saw huge black shadows appearing in the darkness in the distance, like demons in the darkness, constantly moving towards where he was. The campsite is close.
Those black shadows are getting bigger and bigger, and through the reflection of the faint moonlight and snow light in the sky, it is gradually possible to see clearly that they are war horses galloping forward.
"Enemy attack!"
Tokugawa Shinichi let out a sharp scream, and then the Japanese soldiers kept coming out of the tent. However, it was too late. This torrent of iron cavalry had rushed into the Japanese military camp in an instant. Under the moonlight, A sharp saber flashed with cold light in the air, and kept slashing downwards.
"idiot!"
Tokugawa Shinichi pulled out his command sword and rushed towards a knight in front. The knight slashed down, but Tokugawa Shinichi rolled on the spot, swung his command sword and cut off a horse's leg.
"hiss!"
The war horse let out a mournful hiss and fell to the ground. The knight on the horse fell to the ground, but the knight rolled over and stood up immediately, holding a saber and killing Tokugawa Shinichi.
"Ah!" Tokugawa Shinichi roared, swung his command sword, and struck at the knight. The knight blocked it with his sword. The sharp command sword cut the saber into two pieces in an instant, and hit the knight's shoulder. In the knight's block, Tokugawa Shinichi was already weak. Although the command sword struck the knight's shoulder, it penetrated an inch deep into the flesh, but it did not stop the arm.
"Onboard!"
Tokugawa Shinichi slashed at the knight again, and saw that the knight was about to be killed by the sword. At this moment, a sword fell from the sky and collided with Tokugawa Shinichi's command sword again.
"clang!"
Sparks flew everywhere, and Tokugawa Nobu felt numbness in one of his arms. He looked up and looked ahead in surprise. He saw a knight riding a black horse, wearing a Sirius mask with wolf teeth on his face. A scary and mysterious feeling.
Tokugawa Shinichi couldn't help but be shocked, thinking that he was so strong and so powerful!
In the land of the Northeast, the legend of Sirius has been circulating for a long time. According to legend, Sirius is the god of murder in the world and a symbol of killing. Could it be that the knight opposite is really the legendary Sirius who descended to earth?
Tokugawa Shinichi was a person who believed in ghosts and gods. He looked at the mask on the knight's head opposite and thought about the legend of the Sirius God, and his momentum couldn't help but weaken.
I saw the knight raising the sword in his hand high, pulling the reins of the horse, and the black horse stood up, and then rushed towards Tokugawa Shinichi again.
"Onboard!"
Tokugawa Shinichi raised his saber high and shouted hoarsely.
"kill!"
The knight wearing the Sirius mask on horseback attacked Tokugawa Shinichi again. The saber flashed strangely and escaped Tokugawa Shinichi's horse. The next moment, the saber was drawn from Tokugawa Shinichi's neck. Cutting across, Tokugawa Shinichi's head flew into the sky, but the body holding the sword still stood on the ground.
The war horse rushed for more than ten meters before stopping. With a plop, Tokugawa Shinichi's body fell down. The knight on the horse took off his Sirius mask, revealing a heroic face.
"Captain, you killed a colonel!" Zhuoligetu ran over on his horse and said.
Xu Rui nodded and said: "Tell the comrades to fight quickly and blow up the cannon!"
"yes!"
"kill!"
Xu Rui put on the Sirius mask again, raised the saber in his hand and killed forward.
Xu Rui led 3,000 iron horsemen to trample the enemy camp. For a time, the entire Japanese artillery regiment screamed and blood flowed. The battle was very short. In less than an hour, the cavalry unit led by Xu Rui The Japanese artillery regiment was basically eliminated. With a loud noise, the Japanese's thirty-six mountain cannons were blown into a pile of scrap metal.
The war horses once again swept forward like a tide. Because the 25th Division underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, the army's battle line was stretched very long. The artillery was far outside Hunchun City, and the forwards had reached Wujiashan. They were separated by hundreds of kilometers. The several parts that did not belong to each other gave Xu Rui the opportunity to eat each other one bite at a time. Before that, Xu Rui had already killed an advance infantry group of the Japanese, and had just killed the Japanese artillery unit. , Lian Zhan Lian Ji, the mood is very good.
Xu Rui's eyes were once again fixed on a Japanese infantry regiment. This infantry regiment was the main regiment of the Japanese 25th Division. If this regiment was killed, then the 25th Division would It will severely damage your vitality.
In the distance, little lights appeared, and Xu Rui knew that that was where the Japanese infantry regiment was camping. A hint of ferocity appeared on Xu Rui's face.
Gently putting down the wolf fang mask, Xu Rui raised the sword high and shouted: "Kill..."
The sky gradually became brighter, and the massacre finally ended. Facing the sneak attack by Xu Rui's cavalry, the sleeping Japanese basically lost the ability to resist. Of the more than 3,000 Japanese troops, except for a few hundred who escaped, the rest were wiped out. .
Xu Rui looked around. On his left side, there were hundreds of Japanese prisoners of war. In normal times, Xu Rui would have spared their lives and let them do hard work. But now, Xu Rui has no Time takes care of these prisoners of war, so the fate of these prisoners of war has been determined.
The steel knife passed by, heads fell to the ground, and the heads of hundreds of prisoners of war were chopped off. It was only then that Xu Rui showed a trace of relief on his face.
This night, Xu Rui led three thousand cavalry in three battles, killing an infantry regiment, an artillery regiment, and an advance brigade of the Japanese. Six to seven thousand Japanese became the target of the sword. This battle , and also wiped out one-third of the 25th Division's troops. Now the 25th Division has more than 10,000 troops left. It depends on how Seto Tatsumasa takes over!
At this time, Seto Tatsumasa had just received the battle report from last night. Seto Tatsumasa was shocked. In just one night, one of his artillery regiments, an infantry regiment and an advance brigade were killed by Xu Rui. This was too much. It’s shocking. Could it be that all the heroic and capable imperial troops under his command have become paper pulp
Seto Tatsumasa finally knew how powerful Xu Rui was, and also understood Yamashita Fengfumi's good intentions. Yamashita Fengfumi told him not to underestimate the enemy and advance rashly. Now it seems to be correct. He really has no face to see Yamashita Fengfumi.
Thinking of this, Seto Tatsumasa raised the short sword at his waist and wanted to commit suicide...
