Chapter 999: Crushing the Village and Crushing the Stubborn Chieftain
Ji Yuguang captured Zeng Guoquan alive, drawing an end to the battle of Lieshan.
Xiang Yong descended from Zeng Guoquan, and no one was able to escape.
This Zeng Guoquan is also unlucky, why is he captured alive every time?
It is estimated that his own heart is extremely depressed now.
The first two times were folded in Mai Ke's hands, and his heart was still a little balanced, but this time, I didn't know where a little-known general of the Heavenly Army came out, and he defeated me in this way!
Not only defeated, but also captured alive!
I don't know what my eldest brother used to exchange for me this time?
Mai Ke met with Ji Yuguang and Peter, and decided to hand over these prisoners to Xiao Chaogui of the Western Corps to manage, including the three Hunan army generals captured this time.
This place is very close to Huaibei and is a strategic place, since it has been defeated, it should not be given up lightly, so Li Baohong's army was sent to garrison here.
Those ships of the Hunan army were captured by the Heavenly Army, and Peter couldn't look down on them, so they were all left to Li Baohong, and asked him to organize some locals to send these heralds back to make production and living ships, just to help with some transportation when the Heavenly Army needed it.
As soon as the arrangements are made, Ji Yuguang will tend to Shi Da to report on his work, and Mai Ke will fly straight to Nian Zhuang!
Just when the Celestial Army attacked Rift Mountain, Emperor Xianfeng finally understood that the battle arrangement he signed with Mai Ke was nothing more than a dead letter.
After repeated wars, it can't be delayed, and in the end, you can only rely on strength to speak.
The time and place that is said to be good does not count, and only those who have the initiative can determine the next move.
After figuring out this, he began to look for loopholes in the Celestial Army on his own, preparing to attack them suddenly.
He has not yet been allowed to act. The sixth master of Xuzhou has already made a move.
He learned that Xu Guangjin's east was blocked by the group army by Lin Fengxiang and Zhang Wen in Nianzhuang, and he couldn't escape after several attempts, so he finally decided to send troops to meet him.
At this time, he didn't care about the combat arrangements of the fourth brother Xianfeng Xuandi.
This mission, he weighed it again and again. It was decided to hand it over to the steward of Donkey Strongle, and let him take his soldiers and go to pick up the people.
If the pick-up is successful, it will be converted into a victory for them, well, only to lay down the mill, which place will give them everything, they can do whatever they want.
This widow has always been strictly controlled, like a fierce beast caught in a cage. As soon as he heard the opportunity to unlock the cage, he immediately screamed with excitement.
In the midst of the howling of ghosts and wolves, these descendants of the Japanese were like goshawks chasing away the smell and running away.
The donkey's head and the pig's head are rare in this matter, and they must fight the first battle, showing the fearless spirit of the samurai who can fight, fight well, and dare to fight.
Hey, other little things. We must get this mill in our hands and become the first place for us to stay.
The two of them originally didn't have any military elements. When a battle starts, it is a brave charge, and there is no strategy or tactics.
Now when they encounter such a thing and need to use wisdom, there is nothing they can do.
In order to get the reward promised by the sixth master just now, you just need to ask for advice from that viper.
Before departure. The man in black, called the Soul Dementor, once explained to them that there were heavenly armies on the left and right sides of the village, and a river in the south blocked the way. There are no bridges to Guò, and to the north is a barren mountain with no access roads.
In order to help them, the regent recommended to them a person named Vi Da, with whom he could discuss all matters, and Vi Da could represent him in matters together.
And the regent also clearly told him that he represented the sixth master in the matter of one qiē.
However, the donkey head and the pig's head did not take this viper seriously, and in an emergency march like today, the two of them muttered in front, but drove the viper to the back, responsible for urging everyone not to fall behind.
Vid Da hurried from the rear army, but he didn't complain much, and when he heard what the two wanted, he brought out his thoughts.
He didn't have any complicated arrangements, but he divided the 50,000 men into ten teams, and at the same time the enemy could attack the defensive line west of the village until it was breached.
For the first to break the line of defense, Vi Dajian yì gave them priority to steal the right to steal for an hour.
It is to break through the defense line and occupy the mill village, let them loot for an hour at will, so the others can stare and watch at this time period.
The two of them immediately liked the idea, and from then on, they felt that the viper was very close and so understanding.
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese mercenaries swarmed in, and immediately divided into ten lines and launched a charge against the defense line of the heavenly army!
At the same time, Xu Guangjin, who was on the inside, also launched a fierce breakthrough battle from the inside out!
In an instant, the ten regiments led by Lin Fengxiang were 10,000 people, and they were under strong pressure, and the enemies on both sides had a total of 100,000 people, and the strength ratio was 1 to 10!
After Lin Fengxiang arrived in the west of Nianzhuang Village, he was ready to be attacked on his back.
One of his first preparations was to build a system of fortifications.
This system consisted of a trench, a raised mound of earth, and a number of improvised pillboxes.
This mound is actually the soil in the trenches, which is made of local materials and used to the fullest.
Because it was a belly and a back to the enemy, this mound of earth was on both sides of the trench, and it was only three feet high, so it can only be said that it is better than nothing.
These two ridges constitute the line of defense that the Heavenly Army cannot lose or retreat!
When the enemy on both sides attacked the ridge, the heavenly army condescended and engaged the enemy!
These Japanese robbers, each with a katana, is a long-bladed war knife with a blade up to two meters long and a slightly curved head, and the user holds it with both hands, condensing the strength of the whole body on this sword!
The ten regiments brought by Lin Fengxiang were all spearmen, and they had practiced the simple moves of collective cooperation, but when they faced the enemy, they had great power.
Katana and pig iron spears collide fiercely!
The enemy is attacking on a vertical line, and the Celestial Army is defending on a horizontal line, which immediately shows the power of the Celestial Army to cooperate in combat!
The Japanese warriors who were charging forward were all blocked by the spears of the Heavenly Army, and before they had time to make any follow-up reactions, two more spears rushed to their throats and chests without delay!
He only cared about lifting the katana up, slightly affecting one of the spears, but it didn't matter!
One went into his chest, the other pierced his throat!
He screamed unwillingly and died on the spot!
In the first round of the battle, 500 Japanese were killed!
The death of their companions further aroused the ferocity of these widows, who turned a blind eye to the dead bodies under their feet and continued to rush forward with their knives!
At the same time, on the inner side of the direction, the Qing army was also full of blood, relying on the strength of the crowd, and rushed up in a swarm!
This is different from the outer line, where a Celestial Army soldier has to deal with four or five Qing soldiers.
The soldiers on the defensive, I am still the main one, and the enemy comes up more, so I will kill them in batches!
The spears of the Heavenly Army's defense are neatly formed in a row, and when one shot goes down, it will stab one piece!
Take the gun back and start again!
Another sting!
Five times in a row, the eyes were quiet.
Although the Qing soldiers came bravely at the beginning, they were discouraged after the first round of bloody suppression by the Heavenly Army.
At this moment, the Celestial Army in the east launched a powerful offensive!
The Western Front was under pressure, and of course the brothers on the Eastern Front could not stand idly by, so Zhang Wen immediately launched an attack according to the original arrangement!
This is not to relieve pressure on the Western Front, although it is superficially so, and objectively it also plays this role, but this is the beginning of a decisive battle that has been planned for a long time!
That is to say, as long as one of the enemy's support forces is attracted over, it will begin to converge and eat the enemy's Northeast Army and reinforcements together.
Mai Ke's appetite has never been very big.
The other enemies stayed behind and ate bite by bite.
The troops led by Zhang Wen are all the old team of the original Niangzi Shuisheng City, and the main cadres of the nearby satellite villages are now the backbone officers of this team, at least the official titles of regiment commander and brigade commander.
The soldiers under their command are all their fellow villagers, and many of them are childhood playmates.
However, in the past, it was just catching snakes and birds, but now it is killing people!
In addition to defending the Western Front and encircling the Heavenly Army, there were about 100,000 people living in private houses in various places.
Because Xu Guangjin was bent on withdrawing to Xuzhou, he did not consider establishing a defensive system in the village at all, so he was basically in a state of scattered sand.
Zhang Wen's sudden attack, they basically did not form any systematic resistance!
Soon, these more than 100,000 Qing soldiers interspersed and divided these regimental heavenly armies, and as a group army, they no longer existed.
After the partition, they lost their unified leadership, and then they were surrounded by the Celestial Army, and various forms of attacks followed, and these Qing troops soon collapsed.
They were either crippled and wiped out by the demoralized Celestial Army, or surrendered under the strong pressure of the Celestial Army, but within ten minutes, the organized resistance was completely gone.
Only a subordinate brigade of the group army headquarters, about a thousand people, all carefully selected elites, took a secret passage and escaped.
It just meets the donkey's head.
Seeing that the rescued people were cleaned up first, Vid Da felt very devastated!
Knowing that nothing can be done, the donkey head immediately retreats!
He estimated that the Heavenly Army must have another step, and a little later, it would be stewed with a spoonful!
Unexpectedly, the donkey's head was tendoned up at this time, and he categorically rejected the viper's construction!
"I'm not a coward!" said the donkey.
The pig's head fully supported the donkey's head, and even threatened that whoever said and deceived people's hearts would slash him with a knife!
Xu Guangjin was in front of him, very anxious about the IQ of these warriors, but he had no power to control them; besides, he didn't seem to have any face to care, how could the general of the defeated army be brave?
He didn't say anything more, just walked away by himself.
The Heavenly Army really has the next step of arrangement, as soon as Xu Guangjin left, the Heavenly Army surrounded this wave of Japanese Bandits from all directions, and it was difficult to fly! .
