860 First Offensive
"Rush. Come on. "After the Kwantung coalition forces reached the front. Immediately launched an attack on Dong Zhuojun's position outside Bishui Pass.
The soldiers with spears launched a ferocious attack, because they could not see where the enemy was, they only knew that the other side had dug a lot of trenches, and they themselves did not know what they did.
"Fire, shoot." Officer Dong Zhuojun in the trench brandished his ring head knife and shouted loudly.
"Bang bang. Bang bang. "The old-fashioned arquebus, as well as the guns that constantly spew out deadly tongues of fire, they are in the second echelon, most of them are third-line, second-line troops, and it is really unacceptable for them to stick to such a position. But fortunately, their commanders are more open-minded, and if they can't hold on, they can abandon their positions and retreat to the second line, and their main task is to fire, shoot, and shoot those Kwantung coalition soldiers who dare to rush over, and shoot those soldiers as much as possible to prevent them from approaching.
"Oh. Yes. Puff puff. The soldiers who rushed over were caught off guard, and many of the armor on their bodies became useless, and many more spearmen without armor were beaten in pieces. Many soldiers fell to their knees crying out.
"Ahh Mother, mother. Mother. The Kwantung Army soldiers cried loudly. He was shot in the arm by a flying bullet from his rifle. The caliber of the bullet is very large, and in the Republican Army, it may already belong to the category of artillery. The flying bullets directly knocked the opponent's arm flying. The soldier behind was even more unlucky, he was directly shot in the neck, blood spurted continuously, and then he fell to the ground motionless. The soldiers in the back were covered in blood and shouted loudly, although he didn't have anything to do, but this terrifying scene brought a great shock to these soldiers who had just joined the battle. They've never encountered this before. "Ahh The screams continued to be heard, and many soldiers felt pain before they knew what was going on. Then he fell to the ground, blood pouring out.
"Retreat, retreat." Some of the soldiers reacted in a panic and then retreated, losing their weapons.
This is the first time that the Kwantung coalition army has launched an attack, and they simply feel that this is not to fight, this is to send them to death, although they are not very perceptible to the sound of firearms, in a tense situation, they are easy to ignore a lot of things, coupled with the psychology of escaping, the blow to morale, they naturally run very fast.
But those who run fast also suffer quickly. Because this was the first time to fight, it was so embarrassing that it was beaten back before it could hit the enemy's position, and it was a great crime to severely demoralize, and many people were killed on the spot. Many of the people in the back were also arrested. Killed. It's already unavoidable.
"Ugh." Cao Cao stood on his position and said helplessly.
To protect against shelling. After Cao Cao left the camp, he ordered all the men to dig a trench. Many soldiers were extremely puzzled, and Cao Ren was even more disdainful, thinking that this was too unlucky, wasn't this digging a hole for himself? Did they die? Did you save the enemy from digging and burying yourself? With such complaints, under Cao Cao's forcible orders, they had to do it again, although many people were puzzled, they still exerted their usual vigor to do farm work, digging trenches little by little, and then connecting them, although they did not know how to arrange them, but in doing so, there was nothing wrong with doing so.
"Most of the Kwantung Coalition Army has never fought with the firearms troops, and Dong Zhuojun opposite us has a lot of firearms equipment, plus some firearms produced by the Xiyuan New Army and the arsenal before, which greatly strengthens Dong Zhuojun's firearms equipment rate. We're going to suffer a big loss. Xi Zhicai said helplessly.
Indeed, the Kwantung Coalition Army boldly launched an attack in accordance with the way of fighting in the era of cold weapons, and in order to show the attack, they did not even put a bow and crossbow. This was a great surprise to many people, not only that, but the way of fighting was also extremely bold, they did not even carry out any reconnaissance, and launched an attack on the trench position built on the opposite side without any temptation. As a result, heavy losses were made.
Cao Cao estimated that of the 3,000 people who launched the attack, at least about 500 people were lost. A lot of people were scared back, plus their own killings. This is a very bad start.
"What I'm worried about is that Dong Zhuo's artillery units will play a role, and if they do, what will be the result? Most of our camps were on the surface, which was a good target for artillery, and we were extremely new to firearms. Xi Zhicai said this worriedly.
"Ugh." Cao Cao was very helpless and said anxiously. He repeatedly suggested the alliance leader Yuan Shao. Improve the way of stationing camps, for example, digging trenches, letting soldiers live in scattered places, etc., but the characteristics of cold weapon combat have determined that they are unlikely to be too dispersed, if they are scattered, the formation, and the queue will be difficult to gather, and the difficulty will be very great, which is a situation that is difficult for everyone to deal with, and in the face of such a situation, Yuan Shao cannot solve it at all.
Although Cao Cao's suggestion is very practical, that is, Dong Zhuo's cannon will still exist, and it will pose an extremely serious threat. But this method of combat has not impressed everyone. Therefore, the way they are stationed is to proceed in the same way as before, and in such a state, their situation will become extremely bad.
Sure enough, the retreating people were beheaded more than 200 people, and the heads were killed. A lot of people are terrified. It was a horrific killing. If they retreated, they themselves would be killed. It was very frightened for the soldier to think.
Immediately afterward, at the urging of the military judge, the second offensive began again.
This time, many people were still killed. Wounded. Some cunning soldiers would deliberately fall and lie on the ground, and they would slowly advance on their stomachs so that they could not be killed, while those who were stupid and buried in the attack, staring at the risk of being killed, took the first line of defense after suffering more than five hundred casualties. Dong Zhuojun's trench.
The first line of defense was deliberately retreated by Dong Zhuojun, because their strength to defend the trenches was less than three regiments, each regiment only had more than 1,000 people, and each regiment had only 300 firearms. Therefore, in such a situation, Dong Zhuojun's deliberate abandonment is, in fact, a trap, because the other side has to pay a lot of casualties to enter such a position, and they only consume some ammunition, and in the end, the Kwantung coalition army must suffer heavy losses and cannot advance. In fact, it is.
Although Yuan Shao was very happy, the results of their first day were still very good, but many people were worried about this, firearms taught them a lesson, they knew the power of firearms, and they no longer dared to underestimate them. However, it seems that it will take some time and events to get to such a situation in order to attract a lot of attention and become equipped.
Inside Luoyang City. The elite Flying Bear Army is driving the crowd out of the east of the city. It became a safe zone set up by the Republican Army, for the people in the safe zone. This is a very important asset, and no one can stay in Dongcheng District.
The Flying Bear Army does not kill, but only drives and whips with leather whips, but it will definitely not be whipped to death.
A lot of people are extremely numb and blasted out. There are a lot of people crying and crying, after all, they have no home to go back to.
"His grandmother's." The officer scolded loudly. This side is driving away, and the other side is quickly establishing a blockade zone.
Some of the Republican Army's plainclothes fighters occupied the high ground, but this did not seem to have any effect, because there were few of them, and secondly, more people were needed to maintain order, and some businessmen had to get involved.
"Grab the paper. Come in, come on. "The businessmen on the IRA side handed out some notes. It's just stamped with some stamps.
On the other side, Dong Zhuojun's soldiers counted the numbers.
Women, young and old, in groups of twenty, can be exchanged for republican dollars. Men are in groups of five, and they can be exchanged for five dollars. One dollar one.
This transaction is done in this way, the value of women is not very large, and the value of men is still there, so it has increased a little.
For people, Dong Zhuo has, but people need to eat food, dress them, and treat diseases. This is a big trouble for him, and he will never do such a thing, it is too costly.
One side blasted out, and the other side was sent in groups. Many Luoyang people didn't know what was going on, but what they did know was that it seemed to be some kind of deal, and those Dong Zhuojun soldiers who used to be very ruthless killed people at every turn, and now they didn't kill people at all, which made them feel strange.
However, they still don't want to think too much about these strange things, after all, in such a troubled world, it is good to be able to survive. The crying gradually stopped under the whip and the hope of seeing it. People don't know exactly what happened, but it's better to live than to die, and they are still willing to accept such a situation and survive.
The Republican Army and Dong Zhuo reached an agreement, the Republican Army provided funds according to the number of people, but used paper money, the other side provided manpower, and promised not to carry out arbitrary arrests, to ensure their personal rights, and not to enter the area controlled by the Republican Army. The IRA also needs to provide medical help to solve the problem of ambulance on the front lines. This is an additional condition, and the IRA can accept it, after all, the IRA does not suffer.
