Chapter 37 Shooting the Prisoners (Various Requests)

Da Gaoling, the outpost of the Yongzi Camp of the Luyu Defense Army.

The defeated soldiers swarmed in like a tide, shouting and cursing at the defending soldiers in front to open the passage.

Wei Jichen set up many obstacles in front to prevent cavalry attacks, blocking the escape of these defeated soldiers.

Seeing this, Li Yunfei asked in a low voice: "Wei Shao, should we open the road to let these soldiers pass?"

Wei Jichen frowned and shook his head and said: "How can that be done? If the Japanese take the opportunity to attack at this time, wouldn't we be inviting wolves into the house?"

"Wei Shao is too cautious. The Japanese have just captured Jiuliancheng. They will definitely rest for a day or two before attacking." Li Yunfei just finished speaking, raised his head and saw Wei Jichen staring at the distance with his eyes and mouth wide open.

What happened?

Li Yunfei followed Wei Jichen's gaze and turned pale. He saw that behind the fleeing soldiers, a Japanese cavalry of more than 500 people suddenly appeared on the road. These cavalrymen were holding short guns or sabers, and rushed over here with a roar.

Behind this cavalry, there were dense Japanese infantry.

The Japanese actually attacked.

"Quick, quick, let those fleeing soldiers take a detour to leave me." Wei Jichen jumped off the command post and shouted at the soldiers.

Damn it, I'm really a jinx, and what I say comes true.

The soldiers at the outpost were shocked by the sudden change and didn't know what to do. At this time, they heard Wei Jichen's shouting and reacted.

Fortunately, Wei Jichen had prepared the soldiers for the battle before. At this time, they had already taken their positions, each holding a rifle and aiming nervously at the front.

"Brothers in front, listen up. This is a defensive stronghold. Please go around it quickly."

"Brothers, please go around it!"

The shouts came from every corner of Wei Jichen's defensive position. The defeated soldiers were a little surprised when they heard it, and then they felt the ground shaking. Looking back, they understood that they saw the Japanese cavalry rushing towards them with great momentum.

This time, the defeated soldiers were so scared that they did not go around to the sides, but rushed to the position one after another.

"The Japanese are coming, run away."

"Oh my god, how can the Japanese come so fast."

These defeated soldiers only hated their parents for not giving them two more legs. They only wanted to run back to their own position, and they would not consider other things.

The soldiers opened their eyes wide and looked at the increasingly chaotic defeated soldiers. They didn't know what to do. Seeing that the defeated soldiers were about to rush into the position, they all looked at Wei Jichen.

Damn it, if they rush over, it will be terrible. The more than 100 defenders will be scattered.

Gritting his teeth, Wei Jichen was relieved and immediately roared: "Those who disobey orders, I will kill them!"

Wei Jichen grabbed the rifle from a sergeant next to him and shot at the fleeing soldier in front.

After a bang, the fleeing soldier fell down.

The soldiers around were silent for a while, and then someone shouted: "Shoot, shoot, if the fleeing soldiers come, we will all die."

"Quick, quick, the Japanese are coming, we can't let the fleeing soldiers disperse us."

Bang, bang, bang!

Wei Jichen's order was finally executed, and the soldiers pointed their guns at their own soldiers with reluctance.

After a series of gunshots, more than a dozen fleeing soldiers fell down in succession. After this, they calmed down and stopped in doubt.

"Damn it, you actually shot at your own people."

"I curse you to die!"

The defeated soldiers cursed loudly, but they dared not move forward.

Seeing the Japanese cavalry gradually approaching from behind, the defeated soldiers were really in a dilemma for a while.

Some of the defeated soldiers gritted their teeth and fled to the two sides of the dangerous terrain, but from time to time some people fell down the mountain from above and were half dead. Some of the defeated soldiers continued to flee to the defensive positions without believing in evil. In the end, only a small number of defeated soldiers turned around and fought with the Japanese.

The soldiers who fled back would naturally not have a good end. Although the soldiers who rushed towards the Japanese cavalry were courageous, they were like watermelons that hit the tide and were smashed to pieces.

"Kill them!" The Japanese cavalry brigade major Jin Tian Zhengyi drew out his command knife, waved it hard towards the sky, and shouted repeatedly.

Jin Tian Zhengyi wiped the blood on his face, which was splashed on his face when he killed a defeated soldier just now.

Although the enemy commander reacted at the last moment, he lost his composure and wasted a lot of time to let the imperial cavalry rush here. Let's see how you resist this time. Jin Tianzheng looked at Wei Jichen's defense line and smiled.

Hundreds of Japanese cavalry rolled in, splashing dust.

Cavalry is worthy of being the king of the cold weapon era. Just the momentum is enough to terrify people.

A cold light flashed in Wei Jichen's eyes, but it was a pity that it was the era of hot weapons, not the era of cold weapons.

Not far from the halfway point, the Japanese cavalry suddenly found a half-person deep "horse pit" in front of them.

Hum! Such a narrow horse pit also blocked the pace of our cavalry.

Some Japanese cavalry with excellent riding skills couldn't help showing a mocking expression on their faces, and then galloped and jumped up without stopping, trying to jump over the horse pit.

Unfortunately, the short-sighted Japanese cavalry did not notice that although the horse trap was not very wide, it was dug like a trapezoid, wide at the top and then gradually tilted and became smaller towards the bottom.

What's even more deceptive is that Wei Jichen poured a lot of water on the entire slope, and after one night, a thin layer of ice formed.

These Japanese people didn't notice, so they were destined to be tragic.

The war horse had just jumped over, and its hind hooves happened to step on the slope. On normal days, the war horse would have been able to escape from danger by kicking its hooves backwards.

Unfortunately, when they stepped backwards this time, they slipped down.

Then, these beasts let out a mournful cry and struggled to stand up and run forward, only to find that they were destined to fall backwards.

Baga!

These Chinese people have a bad conscience and are so despicable and shameful. The Japanese cavalry who fell off their horses immediately discovered what was going on.

More than fifty horsemen fell into this trap without taking precautions. After the horses rolled to the ground, they struggled and trampled them everywhere. From time to time, some Japanese were trampled to death or were crushed until only one was left. The sound of screams became louder.

This scene caught the eye of Kaneda Masa, who was commanding from behind, and he couldn't help but take a breath of air. These cavalry were all his treasures. It's a good thing now, they were lost in this small way before the Qing army came into contact. In the ditch.

Fortunately, when the other cavalry saw this, they immediately pulled their reins and avoided the same fate. However, the Japanese cavalry's arrogant offensive posture was also slowed down.
