What the ancients said about loyalty was nothing more than this. They had no sense of nationality and had a vague concept of the country, but they also had their own loyalty in their hearts.
It is only natural that soldiers must pay their dues and work hard, and the oath of loyalty sworn in the first place must always count. If the world is full of ungrateful villains who break their oaths, then what kind of world is this?
The more bitter and cold the human beings are, the simpler the education they have received since childhood. They have not seen the colorful world, and they do not have so many self-interested cleverness in their hearts.
They just follow the simple beliefs in their hearts. Almost all powerful armies in human history are such soldiers. They are simple and grateful to have their own inner way.
Hunchun has been operating outside the customs for many years and has successfully created such a group of outstanding warriors. However, it is a pity that Hunchun is a traditional general in a traditional era after all.
He could not improve the excellent character of these soldiers to another level. In fact, only these people were placed in Xiao Letian's hands and patiently educated for a year or two, so that they could understand what a nation is, what a country is, and what it means to go for ideals. fighting.
It is not difficult to build a modern and powerful army!
It's such a pity that such an excellent warrior was eventually destroyed in the Manchu Civil War!
At five o'clock in the morning, it was already dawning in the east. A night of bloody battle was coming to an end. The Nerchinsk camp, with great perseverance against the Rakshasa ghosts and contempt for the enemy, launched the last charge.
They didn't know it before, but now they know that Nerchinsk was also the land of the Qing Dynasty, but it was ceded.
So today's sacrifice is not a loss. Our ancestors had sacrificed their lives for the Qing Dynasty back then, and now it is the turn of these later generations.
"Death in battle and heading west... I will give you and I a share of the blood sacrifice... Escort the general on his last journey..."
Boom...boom...
The last bullet was fired, the last bayonet was broken, and only the glorious bullet was left for that moment. The Nerchinsk camp was also completely wiped out in the Battle of Tianjin.
After a night of bloody fighting, all the elites of the four battalions around Hunchun were wiped out. The Xionggui battalion became deserters, and the remaining three battalions held back the enemy's pursuers with their lives.
At this time, Xiang Lang and his breakout troops had already seen the outer city of Tianjin beside the train track. After breaking through, the world would be vast.
As long as they encounter the new Chinese army patrolling regularly, they will go home!
But is this last train gate so easy to break through? The rebels have taken control of all the city walls, and two Gatling machines are currently set up on the east gate leading to the train track.
A dark group of soldiers stretched out their muzzles from the city wall, and the sabers used to climb the city tower were blocked by sandbags.
"Listen below...you can't fight us...surrender quickly...the prince will give you a way to survive!"
"Listen carefully...surrender quickly! Surrender without killing..."
"Damn...someone lead a charge...to destroy the spirit of these bastards!" Xiang Lang shouted from hiding.
"I'll go..." Huo Yuanjia was young and energetic and wanted to be the first to rush forward, but he felt his shoulders sink and he could no longer move.
"You don't understand what's going on in the ranks, so you're watching from behind..."
Huo Yuanjia felt his waists on both sides loosen, and the two cluster grenades were pulled away. Who did it? The final master in the Jingwu Heroes Association.
The old farmer and the eagle seemed to be flying. They stepped on the turf and rushed forward. Their bodies swayed left and right, never giving the enemy a chance to aim.
"Fire...fire..." There was chaos on the city wall.
Click, click, click... The heavy machine gun started shooting at the shadow on the ground!
Bang bang bang... Guns were fired at the city wall, but no one could stop the two figures!
Whoosh...two black shadows rushed straight to the tower, and the old farmer and the eagle threw cluster grenades up from the nearest distance.
After throwing it away, he didn't dare to stay for a while, but he heard two violent explosions from the top of the city. Four or five bodies were blown up in the air, rolled and fell down.
The two Gatling machines suddenly misfired and flames shot into the sky, killing more than a dozen rebels!
After the old farmer and the eagle returned to their hiding place, Huo Yuanjia clapped his hands excitedly, "Uncles... what a great effort! If only I had one-tenth of your skills..."
"A few more grenades... blow up these bastards!"
But this time, no one answered him. Xiang Lang approached the old farmer with a gloomy face, "Farmer...how are you doing?"
Only then did Huo Yuanjia realize that the old farmer had been covering his left waist with his hand, and blood was already oozing out from between his fingers. "It's okay... the bullet bit the flesh, but it didn't affect the bones!"
Huo Yuanjia was stunned that the master who was like a god in his heart was actually injured?
The old farmer looked at Huo Yuanjia and smiled and said, "My child... you have seen a real war tonight. Times have changed. In the future, we, the masters of martial arts, will not be able to rule the roost!"
"Firepower... Firepower is king. They can turn helpless children into murderous demons. We have to learn!"
The old farmer turned to Xiang Lang and said, "It's not easy to rush... We tried it out, and the ones above are elites. They are not messy at all. The guns are not accurate, but they know the principle of fire coverage..."
"The bullets are all fired into one area... This is not something ordinary gangsters can understand. It's hard for us to rush in!"
Huo Yuanjia was still unconvinced, "I don't believe it... The general's three battalions of warriors risked their lives and perished together with the enemy! Are we all practitioners cowards?"
"Give me a grenade... I'll charge for it myself... Even if I die, I won't be a coward!"
Xiang Lang looked at Huo Yuanjia and sighed, "My child... what we just threw away... are our last two bundles of cluster grenades!"
"We now... don't have heavy firepower anymore, and we don't even have enough bullets..."
ah! Hundreds of troops who broke through were in an uproar. Only then did they realize the seriousness of the matter. At this moment, they had run out of ammunition and food!
How can you attack a city without heavy weapons? Facing the enemy's fortified city walls, will you charge with your flesh and blood?
At this time, there were rumbling cannons and shouts of death from the west. I looked closely and saw the British military flag faintly appearing beside the railway. The Three Kingdoms Allied Forces, with many rebels, were approaching on the left and right with the railway road as the dividing line. Come up.
Especially the army of foreign devils, they even drove their mules and cannons to catch up!
"Surrender... Surrender without killing... Surrender!"
At half past five, it was already dark. Xiang Lang and the unconscious Hunchun were completely in dire straits, surrounded by enemies on all sides!
"Hahaha... We lost this battle because of intelligence, which is not a crime of war! If we could have known in advance that the foreign devils were participating in the war, we would not have behaved like this..."
"I just don't understand! How come the foreign devils dare to start a war? How come they dare to start a war? Why?"
"Head of the State...are you really going to watch Tianjin Guard disappear? Ah?"
Xiang Lang was ready to die in battle, with the last bullet loaded in his pistol. He was ready to commit suicide rather than be humiliated by the enemy.
"Master, please don't...we can continue negotiating if you live, but you can't die..."
A group of people held Xiang Lang, who was about to commit suicide, and ordered to grab the pistol in his hand!
"Let me go...let me go..."
Just as everyone was struggling, two cannons suddenly blasted, and a thunderous sound came from the east!
Boom... A cannonball hit the city wall, flames shot into the sky, and gravel and rubble rained down.
