Chapter 127 Complete Victory

The grand year scared me to trembling.

More than 1,000 Japanese troops on the beach were killed by Cai Ting's naval gun, and the remaining 700 Japanese troops risked their lives to break through the naval gun blockade area and rushed under the fort, rushing up the hillside.

There are only 700 people left in the 3,000 Japanese marines who came across the sea, but these 700 people are crazy dead! They completely ignore the cannonballs above their heads, regardless of the casualties of their companions, and only rush forward. The reason is very simple. If they can't rush to the fort, they are waiting to die!

On the fort, plus Liu Yongfu and Shannian, there are only 30 people. In any case, I can't resist these 800 crazy Japanese troops.

And the warship gun on the sea stopped the shelling.

The Japanese army has rushed under the chest wall of the fort and began to climb with their bare hands. The naval gun was afraid of accidentally injuring the Black Flag Army on the fort and dared not fire.

There was no artillery attack, and the Japanese army was more arrogant. Under the chest wall, Colonel Takahashi raised his command knife and shouted: "Go! Kill all the people and avenge Yoshino!"

Liu Yongfu led 30 Black Flag soldiers to resist, but there were too many Japanese troops. After a while, the Japanese army climbed to the waist of the chest wall like locusts.

Takahashi's eyes were staring at the blood-red eyes, looking at the soldiers struggling on the chest wall, and his voice was fierce.

The Marine Brigade is the essence of the Japanese army. It is composed of elite officers and soldiers drawn from various divisions. This new service has only been established for more than half a year, 3,000 elites, and there are only 700 people left in the First World War!

After the outbreak of the First Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese army won victories in North Korea and mainland China, which finally prompted the base camp to establish a mainland offensive strategy! This strategy requires Japan to take the navy as the basic service and establish an expanded overseas military strike force!

The Marine Corps is the product of the mainland's offensive strategy!

With a strong navy assigned to the marines, Japan can attack cities and regions far away overseas!

Therefore, when the First Sino-Japanese War was in full swing, Takahashi Zhongsheng, the former commander of the Second Division, was secretly recruited back to China. The base camp promoted him to colonel and ordered him to form a training marines to prepare for the battle in Taiwan.

Takahashi graduated from the British Military Academy and is a follower of British ocean-going strategic ideas. The concept of the Marine Corps was first proposed by the British, while the British Marine Corps is only in the ept stage.

Takahashi lived up to expectations. It took only half a year to complete the formation and training of the Marine Brigade, and the Marine Brigade formed a strong attack power.

When the Japanese army captured Penghu, Gaoqiao's army became famous in the first battle. He only sent a brigade and easily broke through the defense line of the Qing army of Penghu, while only two of his troops were injured.

The Battle of Penghu was too easy, and the attack of the Marine Brigade was decisive, but because the victory came too easily, the record of the Marine Brigade was ignored by the base camp. The base camp took it for granted that the Marine Brigade easily broke through the Penghu defense line, not because they were too strong, but that the Qing army was too weak.

This makes Takahashi very helpless. After the battle in Taiwan, the Japanese Guard Division attacked the city and pulled out the fortress in Taiwan, which was invincible, and the Marine Brigade completely became spectators. Seeing that the battle in Taiwan was coming to an end, Gaoqiao Zhongsheng couldn't sit still and ran to Taipei to beg for orders from Yidong Youheng, hoping to send his troops to capture Tainan.

At that time, the Black Flag Army was basically annihilated. Tainan was actually a ripe fruit that was about to fall. Yidong Youheng was happy to be a favor.

So Takahashi Zhongsheng led the entire Marine Brigade.

Originally, it was thought that this landing battle was just a flower shelf, and the Marine Brigade could swagger on Anping Port and then march to Tainan.

However, Takahashi never thought that two-thirds of his troops had been killed by a fleet falling from the sky before landing!

On the mast of the fleet, there is a strange flag - the wolf flag!

However, Takahashi Zhongsheng finally recognized the Zhenyuan ship, which was the largest iron-clad cruiser in Asia.

The Beiyang Marine Division of the Qing Dynasty went to war against the Japanese army!

The marine brigade of Takahashi was forced to the end of the road.

He knows that the only way to live is the Anping Fort.

He has found that there are hundreds of ships flying wolf flags on the distant sea, an army of at least 30,000 people!

Only by capturing the Anping Fort can we wait for work. The Guards Division has arrived in Chiayi, not far from Tainan, and there are few black flag troops left in Chiayi. As long as he can persist for a day at Anping Fort, the Guards Division can break through Chiayi and go straight to Tainan. At that time, he will blossom in the center and gather and annihilate the 30,000 wolves under the Anping Fort!

Takahashi Zhongsheng led the remnants and launched a crazy attack on Anping Fort.

The attack was extremely smooth, and the counterattack of the defenders on the fort was sparse, which showed that the defenders were extremely weak, judging from the sound of gunfire, there were only 50 people at most.

Takahashi is secretly grateful that although he lost more than 2,000 people, if he captures and sticks to the Anping Fort and defends the landing point of the Chinese army, then he is likely to create a brilliant record of gathering and annihilating 30,000 Chinese troops!

A Japanese army has never made such a record!

Thinking of this, Takahashi swept away the haze and refreshed his spirit!

He suddenly found that the Anping War was God's favor for him!

"Forward!" Takahashi Zhongsheng waved his sword and shouted loudly!

His shouting was drowned out by another voice.

Both shouts sounded in the north and south of Anping Port at the same time.

The chief of major staff around Takahashi Zhongsheng exclaimed: "Emy!"

A row of bullets flew over, and the major staff was shot in the head and fell to the ground, together with three Japanese soldiers, who were killed at the same time.

A bullet hit Takahashi's lower abdomen, and Takahashi sat softly on the ground.

Dense gunshots sounded in all directions. The Japanese stormtroopers climbing on the chest wall of the fort fell one after another like cut straw.

Thousands of soldiers in gray military uniforms roared from the north and south of Anping Port.

Gaoqiao Zhongsheng supported his body with a command knife and stood up tenaciously.

He found that the enemy in gray uniforms were everywhere. He and his soldiers were surrounded by the enemy on the open ground under the Anping battery and became the target of the enemy.

"Cunning Chinese!" Takahashi howled angrily, and several bullets hit his chest and back at the same time.

The moment he closed his eyes, he saw that there was an armband attached to the enemy's gray cloth uniform, and an anchor on the armband! That's the symbol of the Marine Corps.

The Chinese also have marines! The marines of the Japanese Empire were completely defeated by the Chinese Marines!

Takahashi closed his eyes in despair and hit the ground heavily.

......

Before dawn, Li Guoge led the Zhang army's naval and marine brigade to land on Qifu Mountain on the south side of Anping Port.

The Japanese Tainan Detachment is so arrogant that they easily leaked their course of action and didn't even keep any secrets about their troop configuration. Originally, the Japanese army wanted to make a big move and shock Liu Yongfu. Unexpectedly, their actions reached Zhang Jun's ears.

Luo Mingfang did not act blindly when he led his troops from Mawei Military Port. He had already ordered Wu Peifu to send an intelligence team to board Penghu to make the Japanese army's actions clear.

Given that the Japanese Tainan detachment was about to land at Anping Port, Luo Mingfang decided to gather and annihilate the Japanese army in Anping Port.

Li Guoge's marine brigade took the lead, took a quick ship and moved to Anping Port overnight. Before dawn, it landed first and ambushed on the mountain bag in the north and south direction of the port.

At that time, Liu Yongfu on the fort was still sleeping. He was unaware of Zhang Jun's arrival, let alone the Japanese.

Cai Tinggan led the fleet to ambush in the sea east of Anping Port, waiting for the Japanese landing fleet.

After the landing fleet of the Japanese army was eliminated by Cai Ting. Li Guoge launched a surprise attack on the Japanese army in Anping Port.

Four thousand officers and soldiers of the Marine Brigade launched a devastating attack on the 700 Japanese army.

There is no suspense in this battle. In about half an hour, the Japanese army suffered a devastating blow.

700 people, most of whom were killed on the spot, and 43 people were captured.

Li Guoge faithfully carried out the order of the Zhou Charter and gave humanitarian treatment to the prisoners. This is the first time that Chinese troops have captured Japanese troops since the outbreak of the Qing-Japanese War.

After Li Guoge cleared the remnants of the enemy, he boarded the Anping Battery.

On the fort, Liu Yongfu was celebrating with Shannian. The two of them were crying and laughing and making a scene. Suddenly, they saw Li Guoge coming. Shannian hurriedly picked up the teacup and sent it to Li Guoge: "Congratulations on Li Lu's first achievement!"

Liu Yongfu asked, "Who will come?"

Li Guoge raised his hand and saluted: "Li Guoge, the commander of Zhangjun Marine Brigade!"

"What's the future, brigade commander?" Liu Yongfu asked.

Shannian said in a hurry, "Li Brigadier is the third-grade general of the Qing Dynasty."

"Three-pin generals, you should kneel down when you see me!" Liu Yongfu has the title of second-grade general.

Li Guoge held his head and said, "I don't want the fame of the Qing Dynasty for a long time. I am now the brigade commander of Zhang Jun!"

"How many grades does the brigade commander count in your Zhang's army?" Liu Yongfu looked ignorant.

"This..." Shannian thought for a moment: "Let's put it this way, there are 4,000 people under Brigadier Li. In your hand, General Liu, there are 30 people. Well, it seems that the grade of Brigadier Li should be higher than yours!"

Liu Yongfu is also a sincere person. Seeing Shannian's words, he hurriedly bow to Li Guoge. Li Guoge grabbed Liu Yongfu: "Liu Marshal, you are the interim president of Taiwan's democratic country. How can my little brigade commander dare to accept your worship? You are killing me!"
