Steel Dynasty - Chapter 488

[Chapter 488 Soul of the Nation]

PS: I uploaded a chapter twice yesterday. I’m very sorry, so today’s chapter is free as compensation.

“Fire!”

On the wide plain, the army of the Chongqing Kingdom and the soldiers of the Japanese pirates continued to approach.

Lu Fei looked solemn and calmly directed the army to complete the second round of shooting. Suddenly, the Japanese pirates in the front row fell again, but the Japanese pirates behind them stepped forward and immediately filled the gap.

At the artillery position, Xiao Ming stared coldly at the Japanese pirate array. At this time, the two sides were facing each other like two vertical lines in the huge open land.

After the Japanese artillery was destroyed by Luo Xin, his artillery began to bombard the Japanese lines fiercely. After each bombardment, the Japanese lines would always be hit by the shells. However, these Japanese pirates were very tenacious. Will quickly make up for the soldiers every time.

This scene not only made the generals of the Qingzhou Army put aside their contempt, but also made Xiao Ming put aside his contempt.

According to Wang Xuan’s information, a samurai spirit is being promoted in Japan today. From the information on technological crystals, Xiao Ming learned that this samurai spirit in Japan has existed since ancient times, but it has been continuously exploited by those who are interested in it.

This is true in contemporary times, and it is still true today. Yamada Nobunaga strongly promotes this spirit in order to sacrifice himself for his subordinate samurai and soldiers.

Therefore, in Xiao Ming’s view, what is scary about Japan today is not the matchlock gun, but this dangerous trend of foreign aggression.

This trend of thought will turn a group of sheep into ferocious beasts. In fact, the current Japanese country is developing in this direction.

Withstanding the attacks one after another, Sakai led a line of three rows of soldiers approaching the firing range of the matchlock gun. At this time, he shouted: “Shoot!”

At this time, he was suddenly full of confidence. He believed that as long as he let These armies of the Chongqing State will collapse if they suffer the same losses. In fact, when attacking the coast, the Chongqing Army will always flee when it loses one-tenth of its losses.

“Bang bang…”

White smoke and flames emerged. The Qingzhou Army soldiers standing at the front withstood the first round of shooting from the Japanese pirates. The bullets exploded on the flesh, blood spattered, and many Qingzhou Army soldiers fell down with a groan. .

The soldiers in the back row immediately stepped forward to fill the empty seats, while other soldiers did not forget to reload their bullets.

“Shoot!”

“Shoot!”

“…”

On the battlefield, the armies of both sides fired at each other. The roar of artillery never stopped for a moment. Lu Fei’s eyes were red as he looked at the soldiers who continued to fall, but he understood that they could not retreat. This was the Qingzhou Army. The military spirit is the dignity of a nation.

When these soldiers picked up the steel guns in their hands, they knew why they were fighting.

The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army did not panic. Death was an honor to them. The Hall of Heroes outside the Qingzhou Army City always told them about the destination that a soldier should have.

“Bang bang…”

Gunshots continued to sound. The advantages of flintlock guns were highlighted in the war. The number and power of the Qingzhou Army’s shots were obviously better than those of the Japanese pirate soldiers.

At this time, the Qingzhou Army’s tight array, methodical command, and artillery support caused the Japanese pirates’ casualties to continue to increase. Gradually, the recruitment of soldiers in the Japanese pirates’ lines began to become chaotic.

Seizing this opportunity, after completing another volley, Lu Fei suddenly pulled out his steel knife and shouted: “Charge!”

As he roared, a charge horn sounded in the queue, and the Qingzhou Army soldiers raised their bayonets. The collective launched a charge against the Japanese pirates.

“How is this possible!”

Sakai looked at the soldiers from the Chongqing Kingdom who were rushing over like a flood, with disbelief on their faces. Aren’t the soldiers from the Chongqing Kingdom supposed to be insensitive? Aren’t the soldiers of Dayu supposed to be cowards? Shouldn’t the soldiers of Dayu be instantly defeated?

Why are these soldiers so fearless and fearless? Why are these soldiers so high in morale?

But there was no time for them to think now. He shouted loudly, and the warriors hiding behind the array stepped forward one after another. These warriors were all proficient in the Taoism among Japanese pirates. Their fighting skills and spirit, and the samurai swords in their hands, were even more powerful. The swords in the hands of the soldiers of the Chongqing Kingdom were cut off.

With the sharpness of their samurai and katana swords, these samurai became a feared presence for coastal soldiers.

On the high ground, Luo Xin aimed his artillery at the army behind the Japanese pirates and continued to bombard them. After witnessing the entire battle, he said: “Your Highness, these Japanese pirates are really powerful. No wonder the kings of Chu and Wei also have such a headache.”

“Indeed, in the

Even with such heavy losses, these Japanese pirates still did not break up. The Japanese pirates are really difficult to deal with now,” Xiao Ming said thoughtfully.

However, he is not worried about Bushido, **** spirit and the like. Facts have proved that the advantages of technology cannot be made up by relying solely on spirit.

During this confrontation, the weapons, training, and soldier array of the Japanese pirates were inferior to those of the Qingzhou Army.

If the Qingzhou army is as solid as a rock when shooting, the Japanese soldiers can only be as solid as a green pine, but the green pine is not as solid as a rock after all.

The large number of corpses left by the Japanese pirates also proved that the Japanese pirates had lost the battle, and now the Japanese pirates were only confident in the samurai.

But this confidence disappeared in an instant after facing the bayonet charge of the Qingzhou Army.

When a samurai wielded Bushido with all his strength and slashed the Qingzhou Army’s bayonet, they found that the thin weapon was not cut into two pieces.

This blow left him stunned. When he came to his senses, the dense Qingzhou Army bayonets thrust forward at the same time. He had no time to dodge and was pierced by several bayonets.

At the same time, more and more warriors were killed with bayonets without any chance to show off their martial arts skills.

The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army were already red-eyed. They watched helplessly as their companions fell beside them, and their hatred for the enemy turned into anger in their hearts.

They have been bullied by the barbarians in the north, and now this small barbarian country on the eastern sea is also raising a butcher’s knife against them. Under the influence of long history, they have understood what a country is and what a nation is.

Nowadays, they are no longer ignorant and numb in the face of national danger. They want to say “no” to the insults of foreigners to their own nation.

“Kill!”

The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army still had high morale, and they rushed towards the already crumbling Japanese pirate array.

At this moment, the Japanese warriors collapsed under the heavy casualties, followed closely by the musketeers, who scattered and fled.

“No retreat! No retreat!” Sakai’s expression was distorted. He kept wielding Bushido to kill the fleeing soldiers, but this still could not stop the soldiers from disintegrating.

Seeing more and more soldiers fleeing, Sakai gradually became desperate. Unwilling to forget the Qingzhou Army artillery position on the high ground in front of him, he blended in with the soldiers and escaped.

Looking at everything on the battlefield through the telescope, Xiao Ming felt a stone fall in his heart, but he was not proud, because in his opinion, these Japanese pirates were just miscellaneous soldiers.
