"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Just as the Japanese army started to attack Sasebo, the Pacific Fleet started to bombard them. The dense artillery shells were like rockets that covered the sky and covered the earth as they enveloped the Japanese army.
Violent explosions occurred one after another, and balls of blazing flames shot into the sky. In less than ten minutes, the Japanese artillery formation was completely destroyed. Hundreds of cannons and thousands of Japanese soldiers were turned into ashes in an instant.
"Charge!"
"Kill the chicken, give, give!"
The Japanese army was caught off guard and fell into chaos. At least 2,000 people died in the first round of bombardment. However, they were still the elites of the Japanese army, and they quickly reacted. They screamed and charged at Sasebo.
In the pitch-black night, the densely packed Japanese soldiers were like a pack of mad dogs as they charged at Sasebo.
Yes, without the cover of heavy firepower, they unleashed the Bushido spirit to the extreme and launched a suicidal attack. There were simply too many of them. At a glance, they were like a swarm of locusts that blotted out the sky and covered the earth, causing one's scalp to go numb.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Facing such a foolish suicidal charge from the Japanese army, Zhuge Qing naturally wouldn't hold back. The 16 'Queen Elizabeth Class' battleships and 15 'cruisers' fired their cannons at the same time, and the artillery shells rained down on the Japanese army.
One cannonball after another exploded in the middle of the Japanese soldiers, and the terrifying shockwaves and burning flames instantly took the lives of hundreds of Japanese soldiers.
"Tsk!" "Tsk!" "Tsk!"
After the cannonball exploded, thousands of steel balls and iron shavings shot out. They were even more terrifying than bullets from machine guns. Wherever they passed, the Japanese soldiers were pierced like tofu.
"Charge!"
"Kill the chicken, give, give!"
Not only did the Japanese soldiers feel fear when they saw their fallen comrades, but it also triggered the ferocity in their blood. With bloodshot eyes, they roared and charged at Sasebo.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
More than 5,000 soldiers of the Celestial Army calmly accepted the challenge. They first placed the enemy within a distance of 200 meters before firing at the same time. The dense bullets interweaved into a dense and terrifying fire net.
"Puff!" "Puff!" "Puff!"
In an instant, hundreds of Japanese soldiers were turned into a hornet's nest, and corpses fell to the ground one after another. The scene was extremely bloody and tragic!
The fierce battle continued. The Japanese army used a strategy that disregarded sacrifices and consequences, launching wave after wave of suicide attacks on Sasebo. Their fearless and fearless " Bushido " spirit left a deep impression on the soldiers of the Marine Corps.
However, it was a pity that no matter how much they charged forward, they were unable to break through the defense line of the soldiers of the Heavenly God Army. Other than leaving behind a small mountain of corpses, there was no other effect.
After charging at them nine times, the Japanese army finally stopped attacking. They left behind over 20,000 corpses and retreated in a sorry state!
……
"General, we can't continue to attack. Otherwise, our troops will be wiped out!”In the temporary command center of the Japanese army, a middle-aged soldier in his forties knelt on the ground and begged.
"Fujino-kun, the order to attack was personally given by Lord Yamagata Aritomo. Do you still want to disobey?”The old general in his fifties roared. "Lord Yamagata Aitomo said that the Emperor ordered that Sasebo must be taken down at all costs, even if all the troops are wiped out!”
"Fujino-kun, are you going to disobey Lord Yamagata Aitomo's orders? Are you betraying the trust of the Emperor?”
"General, I am not disobeying orders, nor am I betraying the trust of the Emperor. It is just that there is no hope of victory in this battle!”Fujino Ichiro said. "General, I believe you have seen the previous battle. The enemy's firepower is too terrifying. We launched nine consecutive charges, but other than leaving behind more than 20,000 corpses, it was useless!”
"Lord General, you should know very well that under such terrifying firepower, not to mention our two Regiments, even ten Regiments would not be able to break in!”
"General, are you willing to watch your subordinates rush up to their deaths?”Fujino Ichiro said loudly.
"Sigh! Forget it, forget it!" The old general could not help but sigh. "I will personally go to the emperor and tell him what happened here!”
……
Japan, Tokyo, Imperial Residence.
"Emperor, their fleet is too powerful. Our soldiers are as weak as paper in front of their cannons.”The old general knelt on the ground and said in a fearful voice. "We launched a total of nine charges and lost the lives of 20,000 soldiers of the Imperium. However, we did not even see the slightest hope of victory.”
"Your Excellency, I am not disobeying orders, nor am I afraid of death. I just don't want the soldiers of the Imperium to make unnecessary sacrifices!!”After the old general finished speaking, he lay on the ground.
