The soldiers transferred from other directions by Zhou Yuji couldn't get in at all.
They could only watch their comrades fighting with the enemy from a distance.
Although they were anxious but couldn't intervene, it must be a very helpless thought.
Zhou Yuji shouted: "Open the side gate, go out and attack from the outside."
Everyone suddenly realized, so the side gate opened, and the Guards lined up in three rows and walked toward the Japanese troops outside.
The Guards fired alternately as they walked.
Anyway, the Japanese troops below were all crowded.
As long as they didn't fire into the sky, they could always hit a target.
When they advanced thirty steps away from the Japanese army, the officer ordered to stop advancing and continue shooting.
The Japanese army was a bit at a loss.
They wanted to attack the city wall and attack the Guards next to them.
They had difficulty choosing.
Just like when you were about to pick a piece of fruit, you were about to pick it, but there were troublemakers nearby, and you were a little at a loss as to what to do.
After all, Tokugawa Tadagabu was not completely a lunatic.
When he saw a Japanese soldier standing and being beaten, he shouted: "Hurry up and attack the side."
The Japanese army only knew to change the direction of the attack after hearing the order.
Immediately some people rushed towards the Guards next to them.
The front row of the Guards held firecrackers in preparation for close combat, while the soldiers behind continued to set off firecrackers.
The Japanese army responded too slowly.
By the time they received Tokugawa Tadanaga's order, the Japanese army had been defeated.
They howled and rushed over.
Facing the formation of the Guards, there was no way to break through.
The Japanese army was attacked from the side, which greatly reduced the number of people climbing the wall frontally.
The pressure on the Ming army at the top of the wall was greatly reduced, and the Ming army's equipment advantages were more easily reflected, and the battlefield situation began to tilt towards the Ming army.
The Japanese army was obviously at a disadvantage, but they didn't seem to care about this and still tried their best to climb the wall or attack the Ming army on the side.
But mere bravery or stupid bravery cannot change the outcome of the matter.
The Japanese army was brave enough but not flexible enough, and they soon could not support the offensive of the Guards.
Tokugawa Tadaga sighed and ordered the messengers to wave the troop withdrawal flag.
Some Japanese commanders saw it, but most of them ignored it and continued their futile and tragic attack.
Zhou Yuji ordered: "Don't let anyone go."
If such ferocious soldiers were allowed to have the equipment of the Guards one day, it would be really difficult to deal with them.
Of course, the Guards couldn't let them go, because they kept attacking, so they couldn't stop and let them fight.
As the battle continued, Tokugawa Tadaka had no choice but to flee backward with his guards.
Zhou Yuji believed that any enemy who would run away would not be difficult to defeat, so he did not pursue them individually, leaving the Guards to concentrate on dealing with the enemies who were still resisting.
It was fine that the charging soldiers were hit by bullets one by one, but the immediate visual sense of being stabbed by bayonets during the impact made Zhou Yuji feel a little uncomfortable, but he also became more determined to annihilate these Japanese troops.
The battle lasted for more than an hour.
The battle finally ended when the last Japanese soldier was hit in the head by a bullet during the charge and fell to the ground like a sack.
Although I had fought against the Japanese army before and witnessed the Japanese army's bravery and fearlessness, the sight of so many people fighting in vain in a battle that was doomed to fail still shocked many people.
Zhou Yuji ordered the battlefield to be cleared.
The Guardsmen first rescued their colleagues, and then began to clean up the Japanese corpses.
Zhou Yuji said: "Be careful of the enemy cheating to death, work in pairs."
Even with this explanation, a soldier was still stabbed by a Japanese samurai who was seriously injured and dying.
The soldiers later had to stab the Japanese corpse twice before they could safely examine it.
In this battle, 120 Guardsmen died and 932 were wounded, while the Japanese died 3,215.
There were no wounded and no prisoners.

This exchange ratio is closely related to the fact that the equipment of the Guards is far superior to that of the Japanese army.
Especially the armor of the Guards, which injured a large number of people without dying.
After the war, Zhou Yuji convened a meeting with all the flag commanders.
He said: "This battle may have a greater impact on the soldiers.
When you go back, you must hold another meeting with the soldiers and focus on these few points."
"First, the Japanese army is very ferocious, and we must deal with it carefully when we encounter it in the future; second, the Japanese army accepts death, so we must deal with it flexibly in the future; third, although the Japanese army is stupid, their bravery is worth learning from.
It depends on how you do it.
Having said that, we can also let the soldiers express their opinions and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the Japanese army.
We must learn from the good and discard the bad, so that our combat effectiveness will increase. " As a result, discussions on "knowing the enemy and learning from the enemy" were quickly launched in the army with flags as units.
Such activities first gave the soldiers a rational understanding of the brutality of the Japanese army, and they understood that the brutality alone was not difficult to deal with, thus removing the soldiers' fear.
Secondly, let the soldiers have a preliminary understanding of the Bushido spirit.
With this understanding, some soldiers also clamored to organize death squads of our Ming army.
My Ming Dynasty will definitely not be worse than the Japanese pirates, which greatly improved morale.
Only less than 1,000 of the 4,000 shogunate troops escaped.
Tokugawa Tadanagi knew it would be difficult to explain, so he had to desperately exaggerate the number and weapons of the Ming army after joining the subsequent army.
In his mouth, the Ming army was simply Unable to defeat, the Satsuma dispute can only be resolved through negotiation.
The seven thousand troops of the shogunate mainly come from Higo, Bungo, Bungo, Chikuzen, Chikugo and other vassal states.
This battle of Akune mainly comes from the soldiers of Higo, Bungo, Chikugo vassal state.
It is so big now.
The losses made all the vassals afraid to move forward.
They all agreed with Tokugawa Tadanagi and asked the shogunate to negotiate the Satsuma issue with the Akito.
When Tokugawa Tadaga's letter was delivered to Tokugawa Hidetada, Tokugawa Hidetada was gathering the naval forces of Tosa and Awa, and the army of Iyo, Izumo, and An Yun, a total of about 8,000 people, to prepare for the expedition to Satsuma.
Tokugawa Tadanagi's letter said: "Its fire blunderbuss is sharp and cannot be resisted by our Nanbarbar body.
And its artillery can reach two miles with one strike.
It is difficult for the Nanman carcass to block its strike.
My seed blunderbuss is completely powerless against its armor.
The Japanese sword and its body can only do a little damage.
I don’t know how to win such a battle.
Please think again, sir.”
Tokugawa Hidetada received the news of the striker's failure first and was already furious, but after receiving the letter, he finally calmed down.
If what Tadanagi said is true, then there is indeed no chance of winning against the Ming army.
Since victory cannot be achieved on the battlefield, victory on other battlefields will be the same, or even better.
Doesn’t Ming Dynasty like to call itself the Celestial Kingdom?
Then take a good photo, maybe it will be beneficial
