Chapter 364: The Key to Victory or Defeat
"The third child, one of you looks at one, if they are one fucking slow, they will cut off his dog's head with one sword!"
Chen Wenqi said to the third child with a smile in Annan dialect, and the object of his sneering was the remaining sixty or seventy artillerymen of the Quy Nhon Xishan Army.
Yes, without waiting for the Ruan defense envoy sent by Zhang Wenduo to be in place, Chen Wenqi captured this artillery position of the Xishan Army, and even dozens of artillery soldiers who had no time to run were captured.
"Boom!" The sound of the handcuff firing sounded, and the triangular eyes of the third child emitted a murderous light, and a gunner of the Quy Nhon Xishan Army was shot in the forehead and fell to his feet!
"If you don't let it slow, you dare to give Lao Tzu a stunned god!"
"Brother! My brother! You Tang Kou, you are not human! ”
A miserable cry sounded, and a gunner not far away flew over, falling on the dead body that was no longer breathing, crying and cursing!
The third child slowly picked up a sledgehammer from his feet, and rounded the back of the crying with a hammer!
The crying stopped abruptly in an instant, but the third child did not stop, and kept saying that the back of the corpse was hammered into a meat sauce!
"Now wait for Lao Tzu's order, Lao Tzu will fire a cannon when he shouts, whoever dares to cry again, who dares to slow down a step, Lao Tzu will hammer his head like this!"
The third child howled loudly without humanity, and Chen Wenqi nodded at the third child with an appreciative smile on his face, and then walked forward to arrange the defense.
The Nguyen defense envoy sent by Zhang Wenduo simply transferred more than 6,000 men from the crumbling Chinese army in order to recapture the artillery position.
And what Chen Wenqi has to do is to use the more than 900 people who are still by his side to defend this captured artillery position.
As for the rest of his regiment, it is estimated that they are lost in this choking battlefield full of smoke.
One should be the way, three should be strange, more than a dozen of the team and dozens of deserters, all of whom died under the military law of the Ruan Defense Envoy.
As the clan of the Xishan Dynasty who changed from the surname Hu to the surname Ruan along with Ruan Yue, Ruan Defense made Ruan Wenchang know that the Xishan Dynasty had reached the most critical juncture.
If this battle on the Ma River side is lost, there will be no more Xishan Dynasty, and the cruelty they once inflicted on the Nguyen clan in Quang Nam will be returned to them a thousand times over.
That King Ye is the son-in-law of the Guangnan Ruan family, and he has a deep blood feud with them, so he is also ruthless, no matter how many people die, he must recapture the artillery position, seven thousand to nine hundred, there is no reason why he can't be defeated.
This artillery position of the Quy Nhon Tay Son Army was on a small hill on slightly higher ground.
Chen Wenqi was directing his soldiers to dig up the soil without their lives, and even used the corpses of the Xishan Army on the ground nearby to build a simple breastwork.
Now facing an eightfold enemy, everyone is moving like crazy, even Chen Wenqi is no exception.
"Fire on Lao Tzu!" The third child waved the red flag in his hand violently, and ten field guns that originally belonged to the Quy Nhon Xishan Army opened fire on their comrades.
No one dares to hesitate, as long as the slightest hesitation, it is definitely a hammer directly hammered off the head.
The condescending ten shells bounced and flew into the crowd of Xishan troops who came to attack, and suddenly there were bursts of screams.
The third grinned, he put down the blood-stained sledgehammer and red flag in his hand, and applauded nervously.
"Good hit, pretty accurate! Just hit like this, speed up Lao Tzu! ”
Looking at the behavior of the third child, all the gunners of the Quy Nhon Xishan Army are chrysanthemums, this does not look like a normal person, they are very sure that if they take a step slowly, they will definitely be hammered to death!
As a result, these gunners of the Quy Nhon Xishan Army, who were not very well trained, were all exceededly under the death threat of the third child, and they bombarded their comrades with a cannon like a cannon, which was much more ruthless than bombing the Fuxing Army!
Ye Kai raised his binoculars and looked at the place where Chen Wenqi's group was, they had already repelled the enemy's attack three times in a row, but the casualties must be not small!
The battle has been fought from early morning to the west, and the soldiers' mental and physical strength should be almost at the limit.
However, the slightly better thing about the Baath Army was that although they had already marched several kilometers before, they had only appeared after a hearty breakfast.
But the South China pirates and the Quy Nhon Xishan army have been fighting until now, they have not eaten anything, and they are hungrier and more tired than the revival army.
Now the success or failure of the battle of the siege of Quy Nhon Xishan Army is no longer on the side of the frontal attack of the Young Guards.
Zhang Wenduo's Chinese army on the front has almost 20,000 people, the best equipment, and the most determined will to fight, and it is not something that can be gnawed down in a short period of time.
On the contrary, on Chen Wenqi's side, Ruan Wenchang only has seven or eight thousand people, and he has to face Chen Wenqi's artillery to attack on the back, and it is not difficult to be defeated!
And once Ruan Wenchang is repulsed, Chen Wenqi can use the artillery over there to bombard Zhang Wenduo's Chinese army.
Therefore, the place where Chen Wenqi is is the key to the battle, and the pressure he is under now will definitely be great.
Ye Kai looked around his side, the Young Guards and Huang Guangyi's Second Division and the Third Regiment, and Wu Wenyong's First Division of the Three Towns were besieging Zhang Wenduo, and they only had more than 6,000 people in total, and it was already very difficult to besiege 20,000 people, and they could not be mobilized.
And the more than 600 light and heavy cavalry of the cavalry artillery regiment could not move, without them watching from the sidelines, Mo Guanfu would definitely send people to rescue the Quy Nhon Xishan Army.
There were still 14,500 people in the vicinity of Moguan Fulongshou Hill, and if it weren't for the fear of being shelled by the cavalry artillery regiment first and then charging into the battle with heavy cavalry, he would never have stayed at Longshou Hill so obediently.
Therefore, the only thing that Ye Kai could use around him was the Praetorian Guard Battalion, which was responsible for protecting his personal safety.
"Brother Huang, leave me twenty people, and you can bring the rest with you, and give me an attack on Ruan Wenchang's department, and you must help Commander Chen hold the artillery position."
Ye Kai said to Huang Zhongtong beside him, even though it has been almost five months since he became the master of Shenglong, Ye Kai has always insisted on calling Huang Zhongtong Brother Huang.
This upright and strong man, who was originally He Xiwen's confidant, is now one of Ye Kai's most trusted people.
Huang Zhongtong knelt down on one knee and shook his head resolutely, "We are the king's guards, don't move lightly, let's be drawn from the Young Guards!" ”
In fact, the first priority of Ye Kai's four hundred guards was not to fight at all, but to protect his safety.
Half of these 400 people have horses, so that in case things are not harmonious on the battlefield, they can escort Ye Kai to leave first.
Ye Kai also shook his head, "You can't transfer the Young Guards, they are outnumbered, and if they are redeployed, the frontal battlefield will not be able to be maintained, and now you are the only ones who can be called!" ”
Huang Zhongtong still shook his head and persuaded bitterly: "But we are the king's guards, and our duty is to protect the king's safety."
The king is the soul of the revival army, no matter what the battlefield is, as long as the king is there, the revival army can be rebuilt, in case the king misses, even if the enemy in front of him is annihilated, please forgive the last general for not daring to take his life! ”
"Huang Zhongtong, all my brothers in life and death here, they are all working for me, I, who is the king, can't leave them!
You are my guards, carefully selected by me, not just to keep me safe! There can be no further delay, and the military order will be carried out immediately! ”
Although he knew that Huang Zhongtong was doing his duty and thinking about his safety, Ye Kai couldn't help but be impatient.
Success or failure was here, he pulled out the long sword at his waist, looked at Huang Zhongtong and said, "If you still don't go, then I'll go by myself!" "I'm going to lead the horse!
"King!" Huang Zhongtong roared angrily and grabbed Ye Kai's hand!
"The last general commands!"
"You and others are all skilled horsemen, you must remember that the king cannot be lost, even if you die, you must also ensure the safety of the king!"
Huang Zhongtong's face turned pale and left thirty horses and twenty skilled guards for Ye Kai, and gave instructions carefully before taking the rest of the guards battalion to the artillery position where Chen Wenqi was!
