Text Chapter 830 The Imperial Alliance Army attacks (third update!)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Kyushu Allied Forces' attack was very fierce. They adopted the tactic of attacking from three sides at the same time and then encircling Zhao Hongyu.  To a certain extent, it did bring a lot of pressure and trouble to Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    Faced with the enemy's tactics, Zhao Hongyu also adopted the phalanx tactics to deal with them.

    Now, Zhao Hongyu and the others have been completely surrounded by the Kyushu Allied Forces.

    It can be said that the Kyushu Allied Forces have completely achieved their goals, but their tactics have not achieved the results they wanted.

    The phalanx used by Zhao Hongyu is different from the Spanish phalanx, but the very popular phalanx during the Napoleonic era in the 18th and early 19th centuries.

    The soldiers with guns were neatly arranged in five neat columns, aiming their guns at the four directions of east, west, north and south to deal with enemies attacking from all sides.

    At the same time, because the muskets are equipped with bayonets, these muskets can also be used as spears to a certain extent.  This makes the attacking enemy feel like facing a hedgehog with its own spines spread out, unable to effectively attack to a certain distance.

    In this era, if there is no way to suddenly reach an effective attack distance, then there is no way to cause harm to the infantry under Zhao Hongyu.

    For the Kyushu Allied Forces, the situation they are facing now is very troublesome.

    Because the long-range offensive weapon archers on the Kyushu Allied Forces side were already destroyed by the Imperial Army's artillery in the first attack, if the Kyushu Allied Forces want to defeat Zhao Hongyu and the others, they must get close.  Zhao Hongyu and the others had to start a hand-to-hand fight.

    The reason why we have to achieve this level is because the Japanese are still in the cold weapon age.

    Yes, swords or spears are still relatively weak compared to Zhao Hongyu and others who are equipped with flintlock guns and artillery.

    So, there is no way around this.

    After all, Zhao Hongyu can use the weapons in his hands to cause great damage to the enemy from a long distance.  The Japanese couldn't do this.

    This war has been going on in Maitreya Plains since the morning and has been going on for an hour and a half.

    "If both sides use cold weapons, Zhao Hongyu's small number of soldiers and horses cannot be the opponent of the Kyushu Allied Forces with 150,000 troops.

    However, the reason why Zhao Hongyu and the others could continue fighting after an hour and a half.  The reason is that relying on the sharpness of the firearms in his hands, he was able to cope with the two crazy attacks of the Kyushu Allied Forces without being defeated.

    It can be seen that in the early seventeenth century, using flintlock guns to fight wars that were ahead of their time still had obvious advantages.

    Zhao Hongyu can see this, but the Japanese can't see it clearly.

    What's more, Zhao Hongyu's army not only has long-range attack weapons such as flintlock muskets, but also even more powerful artillery.

    If these two weapons are superimposed together, the damage produced is not as simple as 11=2.

    At the same time, in addition to flintlocks and artillery, Zhao Hongyu's army also has some equally lethal weapons, but they have not used them yet.

    However, soon, the soldiers of the Kyushu Allied Forces who are shaking the front line of the phalanx will feel the power of those weapons.

    Zhao Hongyu¡¯s messenger came to the position facing the Japanese attack and conveyed Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order.

    After receiving this order from Zhao Hongyu, the genetic man commander who was directing the frontal defense operations relaxed his frown.

    After all, they didn¡¯t carry many knockoffs like disposable rocket launchers.

    This kind of weapon was only produced in Ontario City. At the same time, when they came to the East, they did not carry too many of these weapons.

    At the same time, more importantly, because this kind of weapon is a knockoff, its stability cannot be guaranteed.

    And, after using it once, the entire rocket launcher will be discarded.

    In other words, one use is one less, which is very precious.

    But now, because the soldiers¡¯ flintlocks are being used too frequently, some minor troubles have arisen.

    And the Japanese on the opposite side have already rushed within a range of 20 meters, so they have to consider using this weapon.

    However, before that, they can also use another weapon to give the Japanese a taste of its power.

    Among Zhao Hongyu¡¯s infantry, each infantryman carries five wooden handle grenades.

    This kind ofOf course, grenades are not a product of this world, but were obtained by Zhao Hongyu in the virtual world through his heaven-defying plug-in.

    Otherwise, how could such a thing be made in this world?

    However, there are not many such grenades, and they cannot be used effectively by Zhao Hongyu and others.

    At that time, one of Chen Zhenbang¡¯s brothers was working as a militia logistics director in a county under his jurisdiction.  It happened that the county town needed to clean up some grenades from the 1950s and 1960s, and the government had approved some expenses for disposing of these grenades. At that time, Chen Zhenbang thought of Zhao Hongyu.

    Because if these grenades can be disposed of, then Chen Zhenbang can pocket the expenses with his brother, and at the same time, he can transfer another sum from Zhao Hongyu.

    ? Such a good business can be done by anyone who is not a fool.

    It¡¯s just that these grenades are all old-fashioned with wooden handles from the 1950s and 1960s, so they were difficult to dispose of in the era of the virtual world.

    "Thanks to Zhao Hongyu once bragging to Chen Zhenbang that he had a wild way in Africa, that's why Chen Zhenbang thought of him.

    When Zhao Hongyu learned that this thing was available for purchase, he was very excited.

    After all, although this kind of wooden handle grenade is an old-fashioned thing, it was definitely a very powerful thing in the seventeenth century.

    ¡°At least, it¡¯s more powerful than the wine bottle bombs they copied from the Song Empire in America.

    Therefore, Zhao Hongyu bought all the grenades at once, and he also wanted to ask if there were any old firearms that needed to be disposed of, and he was willing to help.

    It¡¯s a pity that hand grenades can be sold to him, but Chen Zhenbang still doesn¡¯t dare to deal with firearms.

    Therefore, Zhao Hongyu did not realize this small hope, and he was very sorry for this.

    " However, at least in Zhao Hongyu's view, he has hit a line, so if he keeps this path, it may come in handy in the future.

    However, since then, Chen Zhenbang has never contacted him about this matter, which made Zhao Hongyu very disappointed.

    Therefore, the army soldiers under Zhao Hongyu are only assigned seven or eight wooden-handled grenades per person.

    ??Moreover, a lot of them were used in the battle of Osaka Castle.

    Therefore, basically each of the army soldiers under Zhao Hongyu only has four or five wooden handle grenades left to use.

    But at a time like this, you can no longer think so much, right? The enemies have rushed to a distance of twenty meters. As long as you hesitate for a while, you will start a hand-to-hand fight with the opponent.

    For the people on Zhao Hongyu¡¯s side, hand-to-hand combat is the last thing they want to see happen.

    Because although the Kyushu Allied Forces have suffered heavy losses, their strength is still three or four times that of our own.

    If we start a hand-to-hand battle with the opponent, this will be very detrimental to the Imperial Army.

    Therefore, what Zhao Hongyu and the others consider is to kill the enemy from a distance as much as possible and prevent hand-to-hand combat from happening.

    What I have to say is that after the Kyushu Allied Forces began to encircle Zhao Hongyu, their battle losses were very heavy.

    Artillery and close-range musket fire cost them at least another 30,000 lives.

    This turned their original strength of 80,000 troops into more than 50,000.

    It can be said that within an hour and a half, the Kyushu Allied Forces lost nearly 100,000 troops, which was very huge and shocking in the history of war.

    Of course, Zhao Hongyu did not expect that it could cause such losses.

    This is also thanks to the dense formation that the Japanese launched when they reunited.

    It is precisely because of this dense charge formation that the artillery shells can exert their maximum lethality.

    Otherwise, Zhao Hongyu and the others would not have been able to inflict such heavy losses on the Japanese.

    If it were a modern war, no army would make such a mistake and use such a concentrated formation charge.

    "However, this is the seventeenth century, and the Japanese don't understand this yet.

    Therefore, the Japanese people were taken advantage of by Zhao Hongyu and caused such huge battle damage.

    The Japanese are really tragic.

    "Team 1! Throw the grenade!"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Under the order of the commander who took a frontal position to resist the Japanese, the genetic people in frontThey quickly took out the wooden handle grenade, unscrewed the small iron cover, pulled off the fuse and threw it out.

    Then, there were violent explosions and dusty scenes among the Japanese soldiers who were rushing over.

    The soldiers who defended the enemy from the front had a total of five columns, each with more than 400 people.  Therefore, this time it is equivalent to more than 400 grenades being thrown out, so you can imagine how much damage it can cause to the Japanese.

    However, because these grenades were produced in the 1950s and 1960s in the virtual Chinese world, some of them did not explode at all.

    However, even so, more than 300 grenades exploded successfully.

    The Japanese experienced the explosion of more than 300 grenades for themselves.

    The dust in the sky was flying, making their visibility very low.

    At the same time, the deafening explosion made them dizzy and caused some people behind them to be thrown far away by the air waves.

    This greatly eased the pressure on the front line, and completely eliminated the Japanese who were nearly 20 meters away, blasting a no-man's land within 10 meters.

    In other words, the Japanese originally rushed to a distance of 20 meters, but were blown up by a grenade and were vacated by 10 meters. Now they are still 30 meters away from the enemy.

    At the same time, the Japanese are now suffering from the syndrome of being attacked by bombs, and they are still dazed and have not recovered.

    Therefore, the genetic soldiers on the frontal battlefield seized this opportunity very well, replaced the grenades with bottle bombs and began to throw them at the enemy one after another.

    Grenades are still very precious, so they cannot be used often.

    But this is not the case with wine bottle bombs, which can be used unlimitedly to attack enemies.

    Therefore, the five columns of genetic soldiers on the front line constantly rotated back and forth and began to throw bottle bombs at the enemy, causing the aggressive Japanese on the opposite side to suffer.

    The genetic soldiers also used this time to let their flintlock guns slowly start to cool down.

    At the same time, because of Zhao Hongyu's order, Kawabe Yuuji also brought more than 600 Japanese soldiers under his command to the frontal position and joined the ranks of defending the frontal enemy.

    A big flag with the word "demolished" flying in the wind, Yuji Kawabe led more than 600 people wearing riot suits and camouflage uniforms.  Wearing black leather boots, the Imperial Alliance Army entered the battlefield. This was also the first time they appeared on the battlefield against their compatriots.

    Unlike the battle of Osaka Castle, this time they were not hiding behind the city wall to kill their compatriots, but were going to kill those compatriots with real swords and guns on the battlefield.

    However, regarding such a matter, there seems to be no expression of unbearability on the faces of these Imperial Alliance soldiers, their expressions are very indifferent.

    In the history of another time and space, China once had many teams called the "Imperial Association Army". This was an indelible shame for China in that time and space.

    I don¡¯t know if it was for this reason that Zhao Hongyu, who had always had a bit of a bad taste, gave this Japanese team that had taken refuge in him the name of the ¡®Imperial Association Army¡¯ as revenge?

    Regarding this issue, only Zhao Hongyu himself knows clearly.

    However, it is obvious that no one will ask him this question.

    Strictly speaking, Yuji Kawabe and the ¡®Imperial Association Army¡¯ led by him are well equipped.

    Although they did not have weapons such as muskets, they did carry riot shields and spears converted from javelins.

    In terms of pure weapons, their weapons are much more sophisticated than those of the Kyushu soldiers on the opposite side. This is also an indisputable fact.

    At the same time, the camouflage uniforms and riot suits they wore gave them a lot of defense.

    Especially those big black leather boots, it hurts when you kick them.

    "Just watching these teams with magic helmets on their heads, wearing camouflage uniforms, and holding banners with the word "Demolition" quickly arrive at the front position, they always make people feel a sense of disobedience.

    When this team entered the frontal position, the genetic warriors here had just defeated the Japanese on the opposite side from a distance of thirty meters and stabilized their position.

    "You attack quickly, clean up the enemy's wounded within 30 meters in front, and then quickly withdraw. Remember not to fight with the enemy. There are many enemies and you are definitely no match."

    The Gene Commander issued an order to Yuji Kawabe.

      After receiving the order, Yuji Kawabe, with more than 600 Japanese soldiers, stepped out of the queue and began to walk cautiously outside.

    With the addition of Yuji Kawabe and the others, the situation on the frontal battlefield was finally eased.

    Letting them go out to deal with the enemy's wounded was actually just an excuse. The commander's real idea was to turn these more than 600 people into cannon fodder to help them withstand the enemy's attack for a while.

    In this way, the "Imperial Alliance Army", which will become famous in the future and make the Japanese hate, fear and fear, officially stepped onto the historical stage of this time and space, and will also leave a disgraceful historical record (To be continued.  Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
