***************************************************************************
Bolo felt bitter, especially since he had never made such a strenuous march.
Harassing and sneaking up on these things, which are like eating every day, made him feel a little numb, and he couldn't arouse too much anger. All he could do was try to line up as soon as possible for the trouble they had caused, and lead the army forward as quickly as possible.
After all, Wuxi is his lifeblood, skilled craftsmen, reserved materials, and military salaries are his everything. Therefore, although there were still 35,000 elite soldiers led by Gushan Ezhen Tulai, Bolo still felt relieved! Especially at the moment when the Shenzhou Army was ravaging Jiangnan, this made him even more uneasy.
And he felt that the misery of the road was on this boundless field, and that it was soaked in mud in the rainy season. When a group of cavalry passes, the ground may be trampled to a thousand holes, and the cavalry behind can hardly walk. Helplessly, Bolo only needs to turn the column into a horizontal line, so that the advance and speed can be slightly accelerated.
The mud splashed and made the armor on the cavalry look as colorful and ridiculous as the clothes on the stage. Moreover, these mud made it impossible for the cavalry under Bolo's command to move quickly, even if they were not constantly disturbed.
Looking at the good official road less than two roads away, Bolo was very hesitant in his heart, but he didn't dare to go up. Shi Cai was almost wiped out by a salvo of dense artillery fire from those boats, and this time the brigade really drove over, it may not be what the situation will be.
"These hateful fellows!"
As long as he thinks of the guy who came and went without a trace along the way, but constantly harassed him, Bolo's stomach was full of fire.
In the end, no matter the pain or the bitterness, this road like a roll of broken canvas soaked by the rain is still shortening under their feet, and this is not far from the "Suzhou Defense Line"!
Thinking of the "Suzhou Defense Line" Bolo suddenly had hope again, he took out the eternal mirror and looked at the edge of the canal. As long as they get there, the cavalry can rest their feet, and the soldiers there can build bridges!
Under his look, he was really dumbfounded, the "Suzhou Defense Line" was gone! It's gone! In his mind, the fortress that could not be leveled by manpower was simply gone, and this was really the hell!
"Alas! If it's gone, it's gone! "But this river still has to be crossed, so the order to go down, the whole army to speed up the movement and quickly advance to the river, and send another herald to speed up the movement of the convoy carrying timber and tiger squat cannons behind it.
The four-horse-drawn cart, loaded with wood, gunpowder, cannonballs, and tiger cannons, was all Bolo had to cross the river, and walked slowly along the road trodden by the cavalry. The soldiers who had lost their horses followed the cart and pushed hard.
Not to mention that these guys are reckless, and their heads are like pockets that won't move. Let's start to make some branches in front of us, so let's push it a little faster than in the mud, just such a little decision, the Qing soldiers who don't have a good brain just can't think of it.
And Bolo, who led the cavalry first, had already arrived not far from the water's edge at this moment, and what made Bolo a little puzzled at this moment was that in his memory, the opposite bank of the river seemed not so close and not so neat!
"These, these must have something to do with the Shenzhou Army!"
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Bolo reached out and grabbed the reins. He stood up on his horse's pedal and took the binoculars to see the black openings on the riverbank.
Then he saw that his cavalry was already approaching the riverbank.
An icy chill swept through Bolo's heart, and he exclaimed, "Herald ......!" But before his words fell, the neat "embankment" had changed.
"Tom...... Tong...... Tom ......" like a heavy drum, hit Bolo's heart at once, shaking him into dementia, and his heart was like a knife.
It seems that the enemy's attack on Wuxi is real, and the ambush on this shore is also real, but I am afraid that this Wuxi city will not be able to be saved.
The artillery fire of the Shenzhou army did not directly hit the dense formation of the Qing army, and the first row of shells exploded by the river, raising a fairly neat water curtain.
Almost immediately following the second and third rows, the shells slowly advanced at a rate of about ten meters. The Qing cavalry who approached the river bank stared at the cannonballs that were getting closer and closer to the explosion point, and their hearts were full of uneasiness.
The sound of cannonballs exploding like thunder was getting closer and closer, and the clever ones turned their horses around and ran backwards. The brigade of the Qing army began to have a commotion. Obviously, the barrage of barrages like waterfalls is getting closer and closer to the team, and if it happens, it will definitely be a disaster.
As more and more shrapnel flew over his ears, the neat formation of the Qing army began to melt like a candle encountering something hot.
"The rear team becomes the front team, and the whole army retreats ......"
Bolo gave the order to retreat. Originally, he thought it was good. As long as the tiger squatted and fired a cannon at the river, how could those flowering shells and armor-piercing shells ensure the safety of crossing the river, or could also catch the enemy army attacking Wuxi by surprise.
Now I saw those strange ships that leaned like river banks, and they were not at all a cavalry or tiger squat cannon could compete with.
The mud that had been blown up by the explosion of the cannonballs formed a brown wall, and it rushed towards this side like a sea of mountains.
The barrage had caught up with some of the slower horsemen, and the horses and human bodies were torn apart by the sound of gunpowder exploding, rising into the air.
And the front army has completely collapsed, they are urging the horses to run like a lifeless, like a mudslide, they don't care about what is in front of them, and behind them is an even more terrifying force.
As the barrage got closer and closer, Bolo couldn't look any further, turned his horse's head, lowered his body and added his legs to the horse, and ran back desperately.
There is only one thought in mind.
"Run...... Come on...... The farther away from those horrible stuff the better! ”
The sound of the wind whistling in his ears sounded, and the horses seemed to be frightened by the sound of the approaching cannons, and they often scurried forward on all fours.
The entire tens of thousands of cavalry ran together, as if they were charging, but in front of them were nothing but their own carts with tiger cannons and wood. There are also some ......soldiers who are desperately losing their carts and losing their horses.
They watched as their people's war horses swept over like a rough whirlwind. At the back, there was the artillery fire that looked like a high wall.
The road, which had long been trampled into a quagmire, had become a trap of death, and the cavalry and their horses had no chance to run again because of the mud.
When they ran nearly two miles away, the shelling finally stopped, but at this time, they were completely panicked, they could not stop, could not form a team, and could only run desperately towards Suzhou City. Only the protection of the city walls can make them settle down slightly.
