Section 34 Charging into battle

Feng Guozhang led the army, along the Jinghan Railway, all the way to the Xinyang camp, after a short rest, he ordered the fourth town acting commander Wang Yujia to lead the headquarters of the people, and go out of Wushengguan to be the vanguard.

Speaking of which, Wang Yujia, the leader of the army, was originally from Wuchang, Hubei, and led his troops to quell the rebellion at this moment, which can also be regarded as a return to his hometown. This person is a Beiyang veteran, and he has studied at the Japanese non-commissioned officer school, and has always been known as a hero in the army.

After Wang Yujia received the order, he ordered Zhang Jiuqing, the commander of the horse team, to lead the brothers of the horse team to disperse far away, reconnoiter in front, and protect the engineering battalion as a pioneer; He himself led the Second Concord Infantry and the Artillery Marker as the Chinese army, and followed closely; The baggage lasts.

The Chinese army marched for a while, and the front side of the horse reported that on a hillside three miles ahead, a military flag with the character "Han" was found. It's just that there is no figure in sight except for many messy horseshoe prints around.

After Wang Yujia heard this, he knew that Wusheng Pass had been captured by the Southern Army, but he did not panic, but laughed, "This Li Yuanhong, when did he have such a vision and know how to seize Wusheng Pass?" That's fine, though. In this way, we can have a good time and have a good time with the Southern Army! ”

Having said that, Wang Yujia did not take the enemy lightly, and still ordered the horse team to search around carefully, and after making sure that there was no ambush, he led the army to continue to move forward.

He didn't know that there was no ambush around this banner of "Han". On the contrary, Fang Xiaoru led more than 100 elite horsemen of the Wuchang Han Army and hid here.

Fang Xiaoru even led people and horses, lying under camouflage, even breathing was very slight, and slowly heard a chaotic sound of horses' hooves in the distance, followed by someone shouted: "Chinese character military flag!" It is the Chinese character military flag of the Wuchang Han Army! ”

As soon as the words fell, a few horses jumped up the hillside where Fang Xiaoru was standing his flag. The horses swayed from side to side, but they didn't find anything unusual, so they heard one of them say: "Report to the standard immediately, the flag of the Han army has been found here!" ”

As soon as he rode the horse, he flew away. After a while, I heard a shout from afar: "There is an order for the commander, disperse and search!" ”

So I listened to the sound of hooves up and down the slope. The Beiyang Horse Team searched extremely carefully, there were several people, and there were several times, provoking the first layer of camouflage brought by Fang Xiaoru, but it was the luck of inviting heaven and did not continue to search.

"No hostility!"

"There's no hostility here!"

"No hostility!"

"! This southern army will know about these evil things. One of the people who was supposed to be the leader said with a big grin: "Brothers, keep going." Send someone back to report! ”

After saying that, he listened to the sound of horses' hooves and gradually went south. After a while, a group of infantry walked over, and Fang Xiaoru listened carefully and knew that this was the engineering battalion of the fourth town.

He listened to the engineering battalion slowly go, and after a while, when there was no sound, he carefully removed the camouflage, got out of the pit, turned over, and looked around to see that there was no one, and then pulled the reins of the horse and pulled the mount up.

He shook off the dust on his body three or two, lifted off the marching list on his mount, turned over on his horse, and followed by high-fives with both hands, three long and two short, after crisp applause, but there were more than 100 fine horsemen or from the dirt pit, or from the grass, rushing out. As soon as they came out of the hiding place, everyone cleaned up in three or two clicks, then turned over and mounted their horses, and relined themselves on the hillside.

The horse team walked sloppily, and even the "Han" character military flag was not pulled out, and it remained on the hillside. Fang Xiaoru saw that the military flag with the word "Han" was still flying in the wind, the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he stood under the flag of the Han army.

At this time, it was already the time of the afternoon dusk, and on the side of everyone, on the distant mountains, a round of red sun was slowly disappearing. More than 100 elite horsemen of the Wuchang Han army, since last night, have been non-stop, chasing the Yu army all the way and rushing into Wusheng Pass; After a short rest at Wusheng Pass, he forcibly marched to this place again. As soon as they arrived, they quickly found a place to hide their disguise. Seeing the red sun gradually slanting westward on the distant mountainside, and the burning clouds like blood in the sky, among everyone, whether it was the Wuchang New Army or the Zhenwutang elites, they all felt a little tired.

Fang Xiaoru, the leader of the team, did not show any fatigue. Since he was a child, he has been practicing martial arts with Mingkong and his eldest brother Zhu Chongzhen, and he has a good body. Although he was the first soldier to charge all day, his eyes were still as calm as water, clear and refreshed.

I saw Fang Xiaoru holding up the navy telescope with both hands, looking north in front of him, and in the distance in the mirror, he could already faintly see the military flag of the fourth town in Beiyang.

The long-awaited moment has finally arrived!

"Gentlemen!" Fang Xiaoru rode forward, led the horse back, and looked at these elite horsemen of the Wuchang Han army who followed him here regardless of life and death.

"Drive the full Xinghan, life and death, start from this day and this battle! Today is a battle to the death, Fang is not talented, he is willing to fight quickly for the kings, he will cut the flag, destroy the enemy, and build the first merit of the Northern Expedition of our Han Army! ”

Fang Xiaoru led the horse in front of the horses, raised his right arm, "Who wants to fight me to the death?" ”

"I am willing to fight to the death with the officer!" Thunder! After this loud shout, everyone was no longer tired, and they all clung to the saber in their hands.

"Good!" Fang Xiaoru shouted loudly: "Han Liu's eighteen horsemen are out of battle!" ”

With the shout, there were eighteen elite riders, and they came out of the crowd. When they were mixed in the army, everyone didn't think they were outstanding, but these eighteen people lined up in an array, but there was a majestic spirit of thousands of troops and ten decisive battles.

"Xu Shaobin!"

"In!" Xu Shaobin jumped out of the ranks.

"I will take eighteen horsemen as the vanguard, and after rushing out of five hundred steps, you will lead the remaining elite horsemen and rush out!"

"Command!" Xu Shaobin shouted loudly!

Fang Xiaoru turned around with his horse and looked north, only to see that the infantry and associations of the fourth town of Beiyang were already within the range of the naked eye.

Fang Xiaoru took out the red scarf from his arms, covered his mouth and nose, slowly drew out his heavy sword, and stared at the endless Beiyang New Army. Then he closed his eyes, took a long breath of three mouthfuls of the cold autumn between heaven and earth, and as soon as his mind was calm, he opened his eyes, shook his heavy sword, and shouted:

"Hit!"

With a shout, Fang Xiaoru rushed down the hill on his horse! The eighteen horsemen of Hanliu behind him roared long, the sound penetrated the sky, and the sound of hooves rolled, and they also rushed down. In the flight, the wild goose wings are lined up, like an autumn wind, sweeping straight up and down the Beiyang New Army at the end of the plain!

Hearing the long howl in front of him like a dragon's groan, and seeing more than ten elite horsemen leaping out of the remnant sun, Wang Yujia was suddenly extremely angry, and the horse team was incompetent! He cursed in a low voice: "A bunch of rubbish! But in an instant he was running along the ranks of the new army, shouting with a loud voice: "Array! Array! Stand in place! Meet the enemy in a straggler! ”

After the formation of the Beiyang New Army, although it did not go through any real battle formation, after all, it had been trained for a long time, and reacted extremely quickly on the spot.

But in a few breaths, the more than ten riders swept nearly a hundred steps. Wang Yujia looked deeply, and saw that although the momentum on the opposite side was amazing, there were only 19 horsemen, and he couldn't help but be shocked and angry. With only 19 horsemen, he dared to rush the Beiyang elite led by him, and the new Beiyang army and his king were killed, and the Tai was small! Let's take a good look at these southern troops today, what is the elite pillar of the Qing Dynasty!

Wang Yujia rode forward, but did not rush out in anger, but led the horse to stand on the side of the military formation, and looked coldly at the nineteen horsemen who rushed into the formation on the plain ahead. What I saw in my eyes was as if it was Monk Grinqin fifty-one years ago, like a moth to a fire, riding a horse and attacking the musket array.

No matter how brave he is, he is just an ancient samurai at sunset.

Stupidity!

Hanliu's eighteen riding geese wings are lined up, and the head of the geese is Fang Xiaoru. Fang Xiaoru crouched on the horse's back, first trotted, and slowly brought up the speed of the horse, until he was about eight hundred steps away from the Beiyang New Army that was waiting for him, and then he suddenly stood upright, and shouted in a long voice:

"Heavenly ...... Bless...... Middle...... Hua ......"

After a long roar, Fang Xiaoru kicked the horse's belly hard, sat down and the white horse neighed, and the speed was increased to the fastest, like stone fire and lightning, a horse shadow flashed, and slashed towards the Beiyang military array.

Six hundred steps, I heard the sound of thousands of guns in the Beiyang Army, a burst of white smoke rose in front of the military array, and countless sharp sounds, like ghost screams, hissing out thousands of deaths, and suddenly surrounded Fang Xiaoru's ears on the side of his head and body, laughing and laughing.

Five hundred steps, the sound of hooves rolling behind him, Xu Shaobin had already led the troops to rush out.

Four hundred steps, the Beiyang Army once again fired 10,000 guns! Death is roaring again! There is already the sound of falling horses behind him!

Three hundred steps, Fang Xiaoru threw off the stirrup, patted the horse's neck with his left hand, squatted on the horse's back with his strength, suddenly stood up, waved his heavy sword, and shouted again:

"Big ...... Chinese...... Must...... Victory......"

The big man will win! This long roar echoed between heaven and earth, above the four fields. The horse's hooves are like thunder, and the soldiers are like iron, as if thousands of years ago, the Huanghuang Han Dynasty, drove the Huns, and established the dignity of China for thousands of years!

The plains are reckless, the remnant sun is like blood, white clothes and red scarves, the prancing horse rushes into battle, abandons the sharp body, and sees death as home!

Xu Shaobin led the cavalry in the rear, and the horse came out, seeing that Fang Xiaoru was so heroic, all the blood in his chest was churning, and he felt that a strong spirit in his heart could no longer be contained, and he shouted loudly in unison, facing the thousands of guns, just like the flood in ancient times, galloping and mighty, and rolling straight towards the Beiyang Army.

Fang Xiaoru shouted loudly, it was less than a hundred steps before the Beiyang New Army! A good Fang Xiaoru, as soon as he fell, sat back on the saddle, buckled the stirrups with both feet, put the heavy sword horizontally at his side, and used the momentum of the horse, but in an instant, he had crashed into the military formation of the fourth town of Beiyang!

Wang Yujia was already ashamed and angry in his heart at this time, if he was really rushed by these nineteen horsemen, the face of the Beiyang elite, what face will the Beiyang elite have in the future!

In the angry scream, Wang Yujia rose up on his horse, led his own soldiers, faced the southern army, and rushed forward!

The Chinese two heroes, the two armies of the north and the south, finally shed blood on this nameless plain before they were in the country!
