"The whole team! The whole team! Phalanx! Phalanx!"
"Attention, every company, check firearms, bayonets, ammunition..."
The twelve battalion commanders of the 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th regiments of the Ming Army Young Guards all held the handles of their sabers in their hands and walked back and forth in front of their respective battalion formations, shouting from time to time. The sound of shouting.
In front of them, twelve battalion-level phalanxes were neatly arranged, with clusters of torches shining, and bayonets reflecting the firelight, shining with a frightening light in the night.
The four regiments of the Ming Army's Young Guards are ready for battle!
The temporary third regiment that Don Juan Jose placed in the Central Valley had long been beaten by these four regiments with their overwhelming superiority until the whole army was annihilated. The gunshots and explosions that were made before were actually caused by Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren. The order was deliberately created to confuse the Spaniards.
Most of the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers were recharging their strength in the afternoon in order to launch a decisive offensive against the Spanish tonight!
Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren didn't know at this time that Zhu Cihuan had lost his fortune and that his career, which had always been sluggish, had improved. They thought that the silly prince was going to pledge his life to the country in the blink of an eye... Oh , his situation can be regarded as giving his life to the country, right? A little or a lifetime!
Although Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren don't care about Zhu Cihuan's life or death - everyone knows that this stupid prince does not like the emperor, and now he has stolen the emperor's pension money. He is probably a piece of shit that no one loves and loves! But as human ministers, Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren still have to work hard to save the silly prince. This is a matter of attitude!
A good attitude can prove that they are loyal ministers!
In addition to attitude issues, tonight's general attack is also life-threatening for the four infantry regiments of the Young Guards who have advanced more than 800 miles.
If they can't break through the long valley where the Spanish are defending, they will suffer heavy losses. Behind them is a mountain road of more than 800 miles, and there is basically no way to get supplies along the way (there is no other way except fishing, hunting and robbing Indian tribes), and they may be pursued by the Spaniards! This refund should not result in the loss of three to five thousand people?
Therefore, you cannot retreat, you can only rush forward at all costs! Break through the Spanish defenses, rush all the way into the Satsuma Valley, force the Shimadzu family to surrender, and then sweep across the entire California!
Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren were already on the front line of the north entrance of Changgu. Behind a hilltop, they were listening to Zhang Cheng, the leader of the Sixth Regiment, reporting on the enemy's situation. The commanders of the 7th, 8th, and 9th regiments are also here, waiting for Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren to give the order to attack.
"There are at least four to five regiments of the Spanish Army! It is also equipped with a considerable number of Japanese soldiers. Those Japanese soldiers are very fierce and can fight better than the Spanish! Half of the muskets they use are flintlock muskets, and the other half are matchlocks. .In addition, there are 6 doors and 6 pounders! The breastworks have been constructed, from the slopes on both sides to the bottom of the long valley. However, no trenches have been dug, and there is no deer village...
Through interrogating the prisoners, we learned that there was another fortification at the south entrance of Changgu, and about one regiment of Spanish troops were guarding it. In addition, there are two regiments of Spanish troops and more than a thousand Shimazu troops besieging Honxonji Temple where the prince is stationed... Admiral, Commander, we must launch an attack immediately, otherwise the prince will be in danger! "
Qi Yuanbi glanced at Yu Daren.
"Admiral, there are 12 battalions ready, ready to launch attacks at any time!"
There are a total of 16 battalions in the four regiments, 4 of which are already stationed at the north entrance of Changgu and the captured camp, and 12 are ready for use at any time. However, the width of the valley in front of them is limited, and 12 battalions cannot be deployed, so they can only attack in turns!
Qi Yuanbi nodded, "Has the order of the attack been decided?"
"It's been decided!" Yu Daren said, "All battalions are in place."
"Then let's start! Before dawn tomorrow, we have to rush into the Satsuma Valley! Even if we use human lives to fill it, we will fill up the Spanish defense line! Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
The four regiment commanders below him all performed military salutes and turned to leave.
They all understand this truth. The Young Guards rushed 800 miles away, and there is no way to retreat. Moreover, everyone already knows how much the Spaniards and the Japanese who depend on them are worth.
As long as the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Young Guards are willing to fight, there is no reason why they cannot be defeated!
The four regiment commanders all walked in the direction of their respective regiment headquarters, and each regiment headquarters also moved to the front line, right behind the 12 infantry battalions preparing to launch an attack.
As bursts of harsh suona sounds sounded, the Young Guards' night attack began again!
Under the moonlight, the cold light of steel undulated like waves. Hundreds of officers and soldiers from the infantry battalion that was the first to rush to the battlefield stepped forward in neat steps, pointing towards the north entrance of Changgu... ..
...
When the battle started again at the North Exit of Hase, the Marquis of Gaspara was waiting for Mitsuhisa Shimazu and Noyoshi Shimazu in a tent outside Honsunji Temple. According to the order he brought, the Japanese soldiers originally assigned to the two regiments commanded by de Velasco, as well as the Japanese soldiers in Satsuma Valley City, were all gathered and handed over to the Shimazu father and daughter, plus the previous The Japanese samurai commanded by Shimazu Noyoshi totaled just over 2,000 people.
The old Marquis asked them to break away from contact with the Honsonji Ming army, then rest for one night, and go to fight under the Duke of Florida early tomorrow morning.
Shimazu Mitsuhisa went to take orders at dusk. It's already late at night, why haven't he returned yet? Could it be that because it was dark and blind, I went astray? Won't they light a torch? How stupid!
The Marquis of Gasparra yawned, feeling a little tired.
How can a person of his age still stay awake all night long like he did when he was young? He was exhausted, maybe he would see God in advance... Just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly heard the sound of dense footsteps coming from outside.
Shimazu Mitsuhisa is finally here?
As soon as the Marquis of Gasparra thought that he could explain a few words, he immediately went to bed. His mood suddenly improved a lot. He stood up from the cot and strode out of the camp.
After leaving the camp, he realized that something was wrong. Through the moonlight, he seemed to see a large, dark group of people rushing towards the camp where he was!
How is this going? Who are they? Why not light a torch?
While he was wondering, the German mercenaries guarding the camp had already shouted in blunt Spanish: "Who are you talking about?"
"We are samurai of the Shimazu family, and we have been ordered to come to see His Excellency the Marquis of Gasparra!"
Someone among the visitors shouted in Spanish.
Marquis Gasparra thought to himself: Why did Mitsuhisa Shimazu bring all the Japanese samurai to me?
At this time, two Germans came forward with torches. By the light of the torches, Marquis Gaspara saw a tall man wearing a helmet standing among the group of dwarfs. This sturdy man seemed to be carrying a very long spear.
Who is this person? The Marquis of Gasparra was a little puzzled: Why are you so tall?
At this moment, the big man suddenly shouted, then leveled his spear and pointed it straight at the camp of a German mercenary cavalry regiment where Marquis Gasparra was.
What is this for? Before the Marquis of Gasparra could react, the two German mercenaries who came forward had already shouted: "Attack! Attack! The Japanese are the enemy!"
Are the Japanese the enemy?
The Marquis of Gasparra was startled, and just as he was about to do something, he saw a flash of fire in front of him, and then felt something hit him hard twice on the chest, followed by unbearable pain and deafening gunshots. Come!
Not good... When the Marquis of Gasparra fell, he already knew that something was not going to happen. The Japanese had rebelled and turned over, and New Spain was going to suffer a disastrous defeat!
Moreover, it seems that I will soon see God! No, it might be seeing Satan! My sins are many! There are no indulgences for sale now...it's really a scam!
