Chapter 1136: Killing Bears on Killing Bears Ridge
Since Vilskoy looked down on the Manchu army, especially the guy named He Jueluo Sixty-Nine, who was more timid than a rabbit, but claimed to be more cunning than a fox, he arranged his troops according to this characteristic of him.
Of course, Virskoy himself did not know this, he listened to the commander of the city defense.
The name of the commander of the city defense is Norinsev, and he is also the master of both civil and military affairs, and he is very familiar with the surrounding situation, especially those Qing soldiers, whether it is the deputy capital of the 69th Qing Army, or the 30,000 Qing soldiers under him, and the 60,000 regiments or something, he knows everything well.
In addition to the timid rabbit of the deputy capital, those soldiers are also wrecked!
The commander of the city defense said that they Chinese have many strange sayings, most of which are nonsense, and there is only one sentence, what "a soldier instigates one, will instigate a nest." It is really a good saying.
Those soldiers are more timid than their vice-commanders!
Why?
Of course, it is evidenced by the battle between our Great Russian army and these Qing soldiers!
It is well documented that in battles with more than ten people, none of those Qing soldiers have won!
It's remarkable!
That's more than 300 times!
No matter if our Great Russia has more troops or fewer soldiers, even if the Manchus are more than ten times more than us, they will be defeated!
The most powerful time, we only sent one squad, and there were more than 3,000 people on either side of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and they even retreated in a panic!
That's a difference of 1 to 300!
Not only did they escape, but we killed, wounded, and captured more than 100 people.
These militia groups should be even worse!
They were all called up after the recent instability in the south, and they were originally going to go to the interior, but Yinglong here, that is, General Lulongjiang, was stuck, saying that our Great Russia is more dangerous and needs more troops!
I have to say, this old guy still has a bit of vision and knows how good we are!
Now, these 30,000 standing troops and 60,000 militia groups are all here!
"My soldiers can deal with them, but there are too many of them, I'm afraid that if you cut people to the end, the knives will be curled!" Nolinsev.
"Since they are in the militias, we have too! Especially the Cossack cavalry, who are too idle to make trouble! Let them all go up!" interjected Mayor Lotovsky.
"Needless to say, since they are here, and they are so cowardly, let's cut them down! At least let our brethren rejoice, lest they die at the hands of those American soldiers and the Celestial Army. "Virskoy is the final word!
As for which troops will go on that front, Vilskoy has already made a decision!
And now he categorically ordered!
The commander of the city defense, Norinsev, and all his soldiers, go and intercept the US Navy!
Mayor Lotovsky, lead all the militia to fight against the Celestial Army coming down the river from upstream!
When Nolinsyev and Lotovsky heard this order, they were shocked and puzzled!
Just as he was about to inquire and argue, Vilskoy shouted: "Those who do not obey orders and fail to complete their tasks will be punished by military law!"
The military law of the Russian army is strict and strict, and the military is to ask for your life on the spot!
Norinsyev and Lotovsky were immediately silent, and no longer dared to act against it, or even to speak!
And that's not all, Verskoy called out two squads of law enforcement, one to protect Nolinsev, the other to protect Lotovsky!
Clearly said it is protection, but in fact it is supervision, and everyone knows that protection does not have to send law enforcement teams!
The two people in question knew that as long as they dared to do anything that did not go against Virskoy's orders, the law enforcement team would not hesitate to kill immediately!
The present condition of the two of them is like being sentenced to death, advancing is death, being killed by a strong enemy, and retreating is also death, death at the hands of their own people!
If you advance you will die, this is a thing that even fools understand, because the navy and the army led by the governor, which are ten times more powerful than their local arms and ordinary residents, have all been defeated, let alone these miscellaneous soldiers.
Look at the faces of those law enforcement team members, all of them are like deaths, I am afraid that if they make the slightest abnormal move, they will immediately die without a place to be buried!
If you want to intercede with them or bribe them, don't think about it!
Not to mention that they have been tried and tested for a long time, it is said that there is also a system of mutual supervision!
For example, the captain has a deputy captain to supervise!
As long as the captain hesitates and softens his hand, the vice captain has already been authorized, and he has taken immediate action and dealt with it categorically!
And that deputy captain also has a deeper level of supervision, I don't know which soldier is staring at him!
Everyone had such a sword of Damocles hanging from their heads, and only a thin line kept the sword from falling, and anyone in the law enforcement team could have cut the thin line.
In this case, everyone is at their own risk, even a little approach to them is not allowed!
Maybe you don't have this intention, but if you don't care about others, as long as you are suspicious, you will be killed!
Therefore, if you try to intercede to avoid death, you will most likely be killed on the spot by the person concerned, because they want to prove their innocence!
They don't want to die, it's you!
I didn't want to die, but I would die faster!
This is the quintessential life-and-death!
The two of them knew this, and now they were not confused, so they honestly went to their own slaughterhouses, accompanied by the law enforcement team, no, the battlefield!
The two of them have actually broken the kettle in their hearts, although they did not take the initiative, they were broken, and the two had no other way but to seek this glimmer of life.
At the same time, although they are all dead, dying at the hands of their own people is still very different from dying at the hands of the enemy!
Choose between greed for life and fear of death, killing the enemy and sacrificing, all bloody men know which one to choose!
Although these two are not small officials, they are essentially the same as other colonialists!
It's all the true nature of outlaws!
Besides, there may be hope of victory, even if it is one percent, they have to go all out to fight for it!
It's not the first time they've encountered such a tightrope walk!
Therefore, as soon as the two of them left Vilskoy, they immediately went crazy!
The fish is dead! Success is today!
Sending the two cannon fodder away, Vilskoy left his command ship, and by this time all of his fleet, with the exception of a very few who had remained to guard the warship, had landed.
These people are not only combat troops on warships, but also all kinds of technical soldiers and professional soldiers in various positions!
Now, they all have their own professional and technical positions, and they are converted back into combat soldiers!
Now each of them has a Mauser and a long-bladed saber!
There is no difficulty for them in this conversion, because the vast majority of them were excellent combat soldiers before they took up these professional and technical positions!
Those gunners who operate heavy artillery, playing with Mauser guns, is a piece of cake in any way.
All these people combined, there are as many as 50,000!
According to Verskoy's rough calculations, the Manchu regular army had 30,000 and the militia 60,000, a total of less than 100,000 people, and he himself had 50,000 people, and each person was assigned less than two people.
I heard the city defense commander say that their local miscellaneous soldiers are all one as ten and one as a hundred!
Forget it! It's just a good kill! It doesn't make much difference!
When he arrived in front of the brigade, he didn't say much, and gave an order: "Let's go!"
The army marched out and set off against the way of the Qing army!
They are calm, fighting where they meet, the idea of fighting, the two teams get together, there is always a time when the encounter is fought, and there is no need to rush to send each other to the door.
After walking a short distance, I came to a place called Bear Killing Ridge, which was a hill.
The reason why this hill is called Bear Killing Ridge is because at some point in the past, there were many black bears here and they preyed on people.
Annoyed a warrior, he went up to the mountain in anger and killed thirty black bears in a row!
During the decisive battle against the last bear king, this warrior was seriously wounded and died with the bear king!
In order to commemorate this unknown warrior, the local people erected a stone monument for him, with four big characters written on it: "Bear Killing Hero"!
Therefore, this hill is also named Killing Bear Ridge.
When Vilskoy heard this name, he shuddered for no reason, and felt that there was no other high ground nearby, so he ordered his team to go and seize Killing Bear Ridge!
The wishful thinking in his heart was that after occupying this hilly and high ground, he would not advance any longer, but would occupy this high ground and take advantage of the high ground to kill those Manchu soldiers and militia groups who were not self-sufficient.
He was still thinking in his heart, anyway, I already have the advantage, and I will definitely win, so I might as well take advantage of one more high ground to make the victory more enjoyable!
The soldiers, who had not been able to exert their strength, heard Virskoy's order, let out a shout, and swept towards the top of the hill like a whirlwind of clouds!
In an instant, the sound of leather boots stomping on the ground, like the sound of a cow panting, resounded through the field!
After a while, they approached the top of the hill, and the anxious soldiers began to shout "Ula"!
Hearing Vilskoy laugh secretly in his heart, but occupying a small hill, where is it worth "Ula"?
With this "Ula", when the murder is like hemp in a while, you will shout again!
When I kill them, will I strike while the iron is hot and continue to go deep into their interior? That direction may be the only way out for a person who has left them to die and survive!
He was shocked by the flash of inspiration!
Just as he was about to continue to flash a few times, suddenly a fierce burst of gunfire erupted!
Virskoy's train of thought was interrupted, a little embarrassed, if there were a few more seconds, his brilliant plan would have come out!
He thought it was his soldiers who shot at random in celebration of their ascent to the top of the mountain!
But when she looked up, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded!
It turned out that the top of the mountain was full of Qing soldiers, and they were firing at these soldiers who had reached the top of him!
Quite a few people have already fallen to the ground injured!
Unexpectedly, these Qing soldiers seized the opportunity!
However, this error obviously did not discourage Vilskoy, who shouted: "Rush forward!".
