Chapter 92: Retreat! Fall back!

Duan Zhenghong saw from a distance that those shells smashed straight on the blocking position, jumping forward and rolling, and suddenly several soldiers jumped up and ran to dodge, knowing that it was not good, and was waiting to calculate the azimuth distance, only to see a ball of flames exploding next to two of the cannons, and the two cannons immediately fell apart, and the artillery soldiers next to the cannons were also hit by shmelnel and fell to the ground.

The commander of the machine gun platoon set up the mortar position behind the blocking line, and at first he was directing the machine guns to fire at the enemy artillery battalion, and when he found that the range of the machine guns was not enough, he immediately rushed to the artillery position to direct the artillery attack, but due to the lack of communication and cooperation, the two artillery teams on the mountain and down the mountain actually missed the red-coated cannons at the same time.

As the mortar shells continued to bombard the Qing artillery team, it didn't take long for the rest of the artillery to fall apart, and the remaining Qing soldiers pushing various types of small cannons dropped their artillery one after another, crying and crawling on the ground.

As the mortar continued to extend and fire, the shells exploded like eyes chasing the surging crowd, and the valley soon became a hell on earth, full of ghosts crying wolves, and the sun that was about to set had already been shrouded in the gray-black smoke that was gradually accumulating, and the light kept dimming, as if someone had painted a layer of black on the canopy with ink, no, not only a layer, but a thicker stroke on this faint black, the ink must have been smeared too much, It was as if a drop of water was about to fall from the canopy.

Seeing this, Kong Youde, who was staying at the edge of a small village, had straight eyes, his legs trembled unobediently, and a cold feeling rose from the soles of his feet.

it! Finished!

When did the Ming army have so many repeating firearms? There is even a flowering bomb that hits so far?

With such a powerful firearm, it is still engaged in defense? Isn't this deliberately playing Lao Tzu? Lao Tzu's killer red-clothed cannon is all gone before a few shots are fired, how can this battle be fought?

"Dashuai...... Things are not good! Seems to be in ambush? Or...... Why don't you retreat first? Gou Youxin beside him shouted in a trembling voice.

"Retreat! Fall back! The back team becomes the front team! Retreat! Kong Youde reacted and hurriedly shouted.

Want to withdraw now? What did you do earlier?

Before the Chinese army general who had not waited for the order to run far, he saw the rear team of the Qing army in the direction of Hulukou behind him rushing forward like a tide.

The ring-headed leopard-eyed general stumbled forward and cried, "Lord Wang...... Oh no! The prince is not good! The Ming army is coming! ”

"Click!"

Kong Youde shouted violently, waved his war knife and slashed off the head of this unlucky ghost, who is wrong with a mother? Can you still talk well?

Before the general's head hit the ground, Kong Youde glared at the stunned Gou Youxin and shouted, "Give me back!" You! Take the barracks, kill me, and fight hand-to-hand! ”

"Huh! Don't worry! The last general will definitely open a bloody road! ”

Gou Youxin was also loyal, and after receiving the order, he went to the ironclad guard camp of the Chinese army.

The guard battalion of the Han Eight Banners of the Qing Army is equipped with steel helmets, cotton clamp steel composite armor and horse armor of heavy cavalry, the standard weapons are mainly spears, bows and sabers, and about one-third are equipped with muskets, and there are 300 Manchu cavalry who are good at riding and shooting to supervise the formation, which is the backbone of the Qing army with the strongest combat effectiveness and the strongest ability to resist attacks.

At that moment, Gou Youxin led the 800 cavalry of the still complete escort battalion, and ordered a full man Niu Lu Ezhen to lead 300 full cavalry to take the lead, ignoring the crowded infantry soldiers around him, stepping on the corpses all over the ground, and lining up in a neat queue to break through to the north with stray bullets.

Seeing this, Kong Youde immediately led his personal soldiers to follow closely behind, and moved north with difficulty, along the way, Kong Youde's personal soldiers continued to wave their knives to kill the defeated soldiers who were running around in despair, and the scattered soldiers gradually restored order, and more and more horse infantry soldiers followed Shuai Qi to the north together.

Not far away, the front team of guards encountered Zhu Yu Jiabu, who led the troops to kill.

It turned out that Zhu Yujia received the order to act, and immediately led the army to rush out of the hidden woods behind the mountains around Zhoucun, and the main force quickly occupied the preset position at Beihulukou, while the soldiers of the baggage company pursued and killed the Qing army's baggage team that had not yet entered the valley all the way, shooting all the way and shouting: "Fellow, squat!" ”

After Zhu Yujia commanded several machine guns to occupy the hillside positions on both sides, he saw that the rear team of the Qing army had no intention of counterattacking, but rushed to the valley, so he led the second company and the reconnaissance platoon to rush into the valley, and chased and killed all the way.

After chasing for a while, Zhu Yujia saw that he was approaching the blasting point preset by Ding Shuai, and quickly ordered to stop the pursuit, some of them retreated on alert, and some of them took in the prisoners and retreated outside the valley.

Suddenly seeing a large wave of heavy cavalry of the Qing army rushing towards the valley mouth, Zhu Yujia looked back at the machine gun position behind, and found that he was out of the range of the machine guns, and immediately shouted to the soldiers to speed up and run back, he knew that machine gun fire was the nemesis of these heavy cavalry.

When Zhu Yujia led his troops to run backwards, Gou Youxin in the guard camp shouted when he saw this: "Kill the warriors!" Rush up and cut down these brutes! ”

The Manchu cavalry who rushed to the front heard the roar and rushed to beat the horse again and again, and the mouth of the "ho ho" sound, these tendoned Manchu men only knew the charge and did not know the retreat since they formed the army, and when they saw the Ming army fleeing, they habitually stimulated the wildness, staring at the blood-red eyes and waving the knife to chase them.

"Sneer, snort, snort!"

As Zhu Yujia and the soldiers of the second company rushed into the range of the machine guns, they all drilled into the roadside rocks and began to return fire, several machine guns on the high ground behind them lost no time in roaring, and the high-speed flying bullets swept into the Qing army like raindrops, "poof" into the flesh of people and horses.

The heavy cavalry team suddenly fell into a piece, but this team of tendoned cavalry continued to beat their horses and galloped forward with their swords in spite of it.

However, when they were fired by five or six machine guns from a machine gun platoon, how could the cavalry of the 17th century survive? Only all of them were killed.

Gou Youxin, who was shouting and cheering in the formation, was shocked when he saw this.

According to his understanding, he only knew that the Ming army's muskets were extremely far and accurate, and they were very powerful, but he couldn't imagine that the penetrating power of this bullet was so great that they were invincible, and the ironclad cavalry who were almost invulnerable had no resistance, which was completely beyond his cognition.

Different from the Manchurians, Gou Youxin was not stupid at all, immediately bowed down and turned the horse's head, the first to flee backwards, the Han cavalry behind him who were at a loss saw this, immediately scattered as birds and beasts, and fled in all directions, most of them ran into a dense grove at the foot of the mountain, and when they entered the forest, they were lying on their stomachs all over the ground.

Kong Youde had just left the village and followed them not far behind, and before he had gone far, he saw Gou Youxin fleeing backwards first, eager to slash him with a knife, and before he could open his mouth to scold, suddenly an extremely dazzling light flashed in front of his eyes, which made Kong Youde temporarily blind in both eyes, and he couldn't see anything clearly in front of him.
