Chapter 176: The City Is Fallen

When Wei Jichen heard Li Shun say this, he was overjoyed. It was like someone had sent him a pillow when he was sleepy.

However, seeing his weak body, Wei Jichen asked with some concern: "Mr. Li, it's raining bullets. I'm afraid you're in danger."

Li Shun said solemnly: "I'd rather be a Chinese headless ghost than bend my knees to the Japanese slaves. The reason why I ran away before was because I felt that death was worthless. This time the general led the troops to recapture Jinzhou. I can do my best. Even if I die, I will die for a good cause."

Wei Jichen didn't expect that this thin old man was actually born with a strong body.

"I'd rather be a Chinese headless ghost than bend my knees to the Japanese slaves. Old sir, I, Wei Jichen, remember this sentence, and let my descendants remember it forever."

Wei Jichen turned around and looked at the more than 300 commando members neatly lined up below. Obviously, they had just heard what Li Shun said, and now they all looked at him with admiration.

"Brothers, I won't say any more nonsense. You are all veterans of the Weizi Army. Since the establishment of the Weizi Army, we have been suppressing the Japanese. This time, I will lead you to continue to create brilliance, rush into the city, capture Shan Di Yuanzhi alive, and avenge the tens of thousands of civilians in Lushun." Wei Jichen looked at Jinzhou City with a ferocious face and said slowly.

The soldiers of the Weizi Army were infected by Wei Jichen's passion for capturing Shan Di Yuanzhi alive. When others were still fighting small, our Weizi Army had long disdained these things. We wanted to play big.

"Brothers, victory is within reach. Even if the Japanese racked their brains, they could not imagine that our army appeared here like a heavenly soldier. As long as we enter the city, it is victory. We are the nemesis of the Japanese. Who are we?"

"Weizi Army!" The three hundred veterans immediately responded in a low voice.

"Pinqing, leave it to you." Wei Jichen turned and said to Wang Shizhen.

He didn't want to see any young faces. How many of them would stay after tonight?

But I was not wrong. I was not doing this for selfish desires, Wei Jichen shouted silently in his heart.

The commandos were carrying explosives, holding Mauser sniper rifles, or holding ordinary quick-fire rifles, and holding grenades in their arms, slowly disappearing into the night.

The generals who watched the news of the commando members were silent, especially Ma Jinxu and Ma Yukun. They couldn't believe that Wei Jichen didn't need to lure the soldiers with high positions and generous salaries. Just a few words could make the soldiers willingly complete the mission of life and death.

"Everyone, hurry down and prepare for the battle. I want our army to charge forward like an arrow after hearing the explosion." Wei Jichen said neither lightly nor heavily.

"Yes, General Wei!" The generals received the order and hurried down to restrain the soldiers.

Ma Yukun and Ma Jinxu were still a little confused. After a short pause, Ma Yukun asked worriedly, "General Wei, shouldn't we wait for the signal that the wall has been broken before we attack?"

The explosion only meant that the explosives had exploded. As for the result, no one knew. However, Wei Jichen asked the entire army to charge forward without hesitation, which really made Ma Yukun incomprehensible.

Wei Jichen looked at the place where the commandos disappeared and said lightly, "I believe in my soldiers."

Ma Yukun and Ma Jinxu were shocked and said no more. Instead, they turned around and left. At the same time, they were extremely shocked in their hearts. What kind of army is this? The soldiers put their lives in the hands of the commander, and the commander regarded the soldiers as one.

Wei Jichen entered the system. The army system showed the temporary joint army with a morale of 70. It may be because almost half of the temporary joint army was the Wei army, which raised the morale so high.

Without hesitation, he quietly began to boost morale.

Boosting morale is the most frequently used military skill by Wei Jichen, and it has been upgraded to level three without him noticing.

Level 3 boosting morale requires 100 points of prestige and consumes 7 points of mental power. The target is the army led by the host, and the morale of a team of about 2,000 people is increased by 10 points. The effect time is 2 hours.

Wei Jichen released boosting morale several times in a row, raising the morale of the entire temporary coalition army to more than 90 points before he stopped.

Then, he could clearly feel that this army was different. Although the previous temporary coalition army was composed of elite troops from various armies, the soldiers still lacked a lot of murderous aura, which was daunting at this time.

More than 4,000 people formed an attack formation, all lying quietly on the ground, their eyes looking at one place at the same time - Jinzhou City.

They were waiting, waiting for a loud noise, waiting for the fire.

At the east gate of Jinzhou City, there were four or five Japanese sentinels on the city wall hiding in the leeward and yawning. It was about three o'clock in the morning, and it was the most sleepy time.

"Hey, Xiaotian, when do you think we can go home? Didn't the Qing people get scared by us and beg for mercy?" A Japanese man put his hands in his pockets and asked the Japanese man opposite him.

After fighting for more than half a year, even the Japanese were a little tired.

The man named Xiaotian on the opposite side nodded and said, "It shouldn't be long. I heard that Li Hongzhang of the Qing Dynasty is halfway. When he arrives in Japan for negotiations, the two countries will definitely cease fire."

Another Japanese sentry interrupted, "Even if there is a ceasefire, we have to stay here. Do you think this place will become the territory of the empire?"

Xiaotian smiled and said, "Now that we occupy it, it will become the territory of the empire. Can it be returned? Such a vast land, I only need a small piece of it to farm."

"Hush, did you hear any noise?" Xiaotian suddenly stood up and looked around, but found nothing unusual.

"It's late at night, what could happen? Maybe a wild dog passed by. Hurry up and squat down, let's continue talking." Another Japanese soldier impatiently pulled him down to sit down.

Under the city wall, Wang Shizhen followed Li Shun and watched him touch and knock on the city wall, fearing that his noise would be too loud and attract the attention of the Japanese. Fortunately, the Japanese did not move for so long.

My dear, there is more to this chapter^.^,

And his group also arrived at the city wall without any danger.

Wang Shizhen ordered the other soldiers of the commando team to lie in ambush not far away, and he brought the soldiers of the engineering team to blow up the city wall.

"Here, here!" Li Shun suddenly whispered excitedly.

Wang Shizhen looked at the city wall here suspiciously, and there was nothing different.

Li Shun explained softly: "Although there are a few stones outside, the inside is just some rubble that our people have stuffed in in a mess. It's just good-looking but useless. Lord Wang, just trust me."

Wang Shizhen nodded and waved his hand. More than a dozen engineers walking behind him walked forward carefully and found a place to bury the explosives.

"Sir, the explosives have been buried. Please go first. The subordinates and others still need to detonate them." A moment later, a team officer reported to Wang Shizhen.

Wang Shizhen also had to command the assault team to attack after the city collapsed, so he didn't say much. He was about to leave quietly after hearing this.

"No, I really heard a rustling sound below. Light the torch and throw it down." Xiaotian Gang said a few words and stood up again, this time in an unquestionable tone.

"You are the only one who has too many things to do!" Several other Japanese cursed and lit a few torches according to his instructions, and then threw them down.

Before Wang Shizhen left, he saw a flash of fire from above, followed by several torches falling down, illuminating the area below.

"Oh no, we've been discovered by the Japanese." Wang Shizhen was shocked.

"Baga, there are people below." Xiaotian shouted, and several Japanese changed color and hurriedly stretched out their guns.

Bang bang, they fired at the bottom of the city wall, and the sound of gunfire spread far away at night. Some Japanese in the city were awakened and were a little confused.

"Quick, light the explosives." Wang Shizhen yelled, rolled over several times, avoided the bullets from above, and quickly went to the assault team.

More than a dozen engineers stayed together, and the target was large. They had no time to dodge, and were hit by the bullets from above, and four or five of them died at once.

The engineer officer dragged his injured thigh and lit the fuse. To be on the safe side, he walked to another place.

"You go, my thigh is injured, I'm afraid I can't leave." The officer roared at the remaining engineers.

"Team officer!" Several soldiers wanted to come forward to help him up.

He kicked and hit like crazy, shouting: "Damn it, I want to watch the explosives explode here with my own eyes, hurry up."

Several engineers gritted their teeth and had to retreat quickly.

At this time, Li Shun, a teacher from the school, stumbled over, snatched the fire starter from the team officer's hand, and shouted: "Let me do it."

Li Shun looked at the explosives they buried and naturally knew where the fuse was.

"Old sir!" The team officer didn't know what to say.

"My whole family died in the hands of these beasts. My grandson was only three years old and was also thrown to death by the beasts. I will avenge them tonight. My son, you all watch." Li Shun's tears flowed down his cheeks.

Swish, swish...

The fuses everywhere were lit.

Oda, who was above, saw the two Chinese people fighting to the death. He suddenly understood and shouted in panic: "The Chinese want to blow up the city wall, get out of the way."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from below, and the sky-high flames rose up. The city wall under his feet shook violently, and bricks and stones fell down.

"Oh no, the city wall collapsed." Several Japanese lay on the ground in a panic.

Crackling, booming, the city wall finally collapsed with a bang.

Several Japanese were also buried alive.

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

Two different places, but this order was issued at the same time.

Wang Shizhen looked at the gap in the city wall that was exchanged for flesh and blood, shouted, and took the lead.

Wei Jichen looked at the dazzling light in the distance and uttered these two words clearly from his mouth.

"Kill! Capture Yamaji Motoharu alive." Thousands of soldiers roared in the dark night, and like a pack of wolves looking for food, they rushed towards the city of Jinzhou fiercely.
