Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Three-row shooting means that the first row squats down to reload after firing.

The second row fired again and crouched down, followed by the third row.

After the third row finished firing, the first row had already reloaded.

This cycle repeats over and over to ensure that there are bullets output at all times.

At this time, it was already broad daylight.

Five minutes later, the Japanese soldiers formed a battle array, but did not attack. A Japanese leader holding a wooden trumpet walked 50 meters away and shouted in Chinese through the trumpet:

"What part of the opposing army are you from? Why are you attacking the defense zone of Great Japan?"

Xiao You, the battalion commander at the front of the Tiandi Army, shouted loudly.

"Shut up, you little dog. Shuri Castle belongs to us Chinese. Listen up, little devil. We are the Heaven and Earth Revolutionary Army! Put down your weapons and surrender!"

"What! Chinese people, the Heaven and Earth Revolutionary Army!" Tokugawa Kosato found it hard to believe when he heard the shouts from the other side.

The giant country of China is thousands of miles away and across the sea, so the Chinese army has never been to Ryukyu.

But according to the spy report, King Shangwen has sent an envoy to ask Huaxia for help. Could it be that the army on the opposite side is really the army of Huaxia?

If it is really an army sent by the Huaxia country, then the more than 1,000 people in front are probably the vanguard, and the main force should be behind.

Thinking of this, Tokugawa Kosato said to Yanagi Zhengbei beside him:

"You should immediately return to the Tokugawa shogunate and report the situation of Shuri Castle to the general Tokugawa Koyasu. Tell him that China has sent troops to reinforce Ryukyu. The number of troops should be no less than 50,000. Please send troops to reinforce as soon as possible."

After receiving the order, Liu Ye Zhengbei went back to the city and went out from the east gate to seek reinforcements.

Facing the more than 5000 Chinese army vanguards, Tokugawa Kosato was confident that he could defeat them. 1600 versus , his number was three times that of the enemy.

"Forward," Tokugawa Kosato ordered.

Then the war drums roared, and the Japanese soldiers formed a square formation of 500 people.

Ten square formations marched forward to the beat of drums.

Walking in the front were three phalanxes of musketeers lined up side by side.

Next are three phalanxes of archers, and finally four phalanxes of sword and shield soldiers.

When the front team of the Japanese troops advanced to 120 steps and were about to enter the effective range of the musketeers, a barrage of crossbow arrows flew down from the sky without stopping.

One thousand Zhuge crossbows from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the Tiandi Army fired simultaneously.

Ten thousand crossbow arrows immediately covered the Japanese musketeers and archers.

At this time, six catapults threw six large 6-jin white phosphorus bombs to the rear of the Japanese soldiers.

There was a sea of ​​fire at the city gate, and the last four sword and shield phalanxes were immediately caught in the fire.

Countless figures were struggling in the fire, stuck with white phosphorus. Some of the burning Japanese soldiers were rolling on the ground, some were running in the fire, and more were grabbing each other in the chaos, which made the fire bigger.

In the Japanese phalanx, except for the sword and shield soldiers, every soldier has a wooden shield, and the first row in front, behind, left and right of each phalanx has arrow-blocking shields.

But the archers and musketeers standing in the middle of the phalanx were in bad luck. The crossbow arrows shot up from the sky made their shields helpless.

They were shot one after another. Those who were hit in the vital parts struggled for a few seconds and died, while those who were not hit in the vital parts cried and screamed and fled in all directions.

Tokugawa Kosato lay behind his shield and turned back to shout, "Charge, charge, charge..."

As soon as he finished shouting, he saw unknown flying stones thrown by the opponent's catapult whizzing towards him.

As soon as it hit the ground, it exploded with a loud bang, flames shot out in all directions, and a raging fire immediately broke out within a hundred meters around it.

Those sword and shield soldiers who were still struggling in the fire and had not died fell down in a large number in an instant.

It is no exaggeration to say that this scene is hell on earth.

When Tokugawa Kosato saw this scene, his heart sank.

The Japanese soldiers lying behind the arrow-shielding shields in the front row, upon hearing Tokugawa Jiali's call to charge, also formed groups of three or five and rushed forward with their arrow-shielding shields raised against the rain of arrows.

When they were about sixty or seventy steps in front of the Tiandi Army's formation, the sword and shield soldiers in the rear of the Japanese had all been killed, while the archers and musketeers in the front totaled less than a thousand people.

At this time, the Japanese had already rushed into the effective range of the archers and musketeers. The archers were preparing to draw their bows and shoot arrows, and the musketeers were preparing to load powder and projectiles.

At this time, the crossbows of the Tiandi Army stopped attacking, and a flood of white phosphorus grenades were thrown over.

The Japanese had never seen this thing before and thought the other side was throwing "stones" during a war.

The Japanese soldiers all wore helmets woven from rattan and leather helmets made of various leathers.

Although this equipment is not very defensive against powerful crossbow arrows, it still has a certain degree of defensive power against stones.

A fist-sized stone won't kill a person, at most it will cause some pain.

When the Japanese soldiers saw the other side throwing "stones", they immediately forgot the shock they had just received from the crossbow arrows.

Just as he was about to laugh at the Chinese for their inability to fight a war, he saw the "stone" under his feet hit the ground and exploded immediately.

Iron chips flew and hit the surrounding Japanese soldiers. The iron chips penetrated their leather helmets and pierced into their flesh.

Before the Japanese soldiers could even scream in pain, balls of fire were already coming towards them, sticking to their bodies like maggots and burning them.

Soon the helmet and leather helmet caught fire, and the fire burned into the Japanese soldiers' muscles, causing them to scream in pain.

Some smart Japanese soldiers immediately took off their leather helmets and prepared to run naked.

As a result, the explosive stones came again, and the iron filings pierced through the defenseless Japanese soldiers.

Those who were lucky died immediately, but those who survived danced in the fire in agony, in so much pain that they regretted running to the Ryukyu Kingdom to cause trouble, and only wanted to die quickly to be relieved of the pain.

Tokugawa Kosato was set on fire by the first wave of white phosphorus grenades and was almost killed.

After three waves of white phosphorus grenades, there was no one left standing among the Japanese. Except for a few who were not completely dead and were still struggling in the fire, there was no one alive among the 5,000 Japanese infantrymen.

Wei Xiaobao stood next to the catapult and ordered the special forces company to put away the catapults and prepare to enter the city.

When Yang Lin, the leader of the Heaven and Earth Legion in front, saw that the fire had died down, he ordered the sword and shield soldiers to finish off the enemies while the other personnel cleaned up the battlefield.

The sword and shield soldiers had been watching the crossbow soldiers operating the crossbows and throwing white phosphorus grenades to kill the Japanese from behind, and they were envious. They just hoped that the crossbow soldiers would not kill the Japanese in one go, leaving some for the sword and shield soldiers so that they could satisfy their addiction to killing enemies on the battlefield.

The sword and shield soldiers walked into the pile of enemy corpses and found that they needed to finish off the dead. All the devils in front of them were burnt to death and died in a horrible way!

Only those who passed the explosion zone of the white phosphorus grenade and a few who were stabbed by crossbow arrows survived.

These sword and shield soldiers rushed into the pile of dead Japanese soldiers who were shot into hedgehogs as if they were grabbing gold. They didn't care whether they were alive or dead. The brand new Tang swords had to see blood and be consecrated on the battlefield!

In a short while, more than a thousand Japanese corpses, dead and alive, were separated.

There was nothing to clean up on this battlefield, just collect the iron from the weapons that were burned on the battlefield so that it could be recycled and used to make steel.

Of course, intact crossbow arrows must also be collected and can be used again after washing.
