Chapter 443: Choice
His Royal Highness King Yan
It was only the next moment that Nan Bohang found that Liu Chang had pulled out the two pistols he was carrying, and he no longer hesitated, he shouted loudly: Let the reserves come up, let the reserves come up, you see......
What to see, Nanbo Hang revealed the mystery at the first time: His Royal Highness King Yan wants to personally carry out the steadfastness and sharpness, this is the shame of our soldiers, who is willing to come with me Nanbo Hang
When Liu Chang wanted to seize this combat staff officer, who was very easy to use, Nan Bohang had already shouted: Come with me, I am Nan Bohang
I'm Hu Songxing here
I am Zheng Dong indispensable
Of course, there is also my Xiaolinzi
……
In a hurry, in addition to the guards around Liu Chang, Nan Bohang actually mobilized all the combatants and non-combatants near this hill, and some people didn't even have rifles with them, Nan Bohang told them as soon as possible: Follow me to the battlefield, if you don't have a gun, take one when the time comes, if not, then use your fist to grab one
This almost added an infantry platoon of combat soldiers, and Liu Chang was also enthusiastic, he could see that this group of people was sincere and sincere to fight the French, even if they were a little inferior to the French in combat effectiveness today, but in terms of fighting will, this was the best force
He personally mounted his war horse, waving the red battle flag, and under the battle flag were nearly a hundred troops that could be regarded as the highest morale of the entire Rainbow Army: Charge with His Royal Highness King Yan...... No......
Nan Bohang immediately changed his words, and he shook his fist vigorously: How can you let us charge behind His Royal Highness King Yan, and my comrades-in-arms will come with me
Except for a squad guard beside Liu Chang, the soldiers of the two infantry platoons rushed forward with a roar, but fortunately, they did not forget to inform the general reserve behind them: It is time for the general reserve to come up
And Liu Chang is also ready to enter the battlefield at any time, and some times the victory or defeat of the battle depends on his group of guards and cavalry
He looked at his pocket watch again: it was about an hour and a half before sunset
It's going to be an extremely difficult hour and a half
In view of the defeat on the flanks, it would be impossible to continue the siege of Fengjing Town, and the Rainbow Army would have to withdraw and reorganize its ranks, but it would be impossible to withdraw now on both fronts, not to mention that most of the wounded and heavy firearms and baggage would be discarded, and in the current situation, it was very likely that the Rainbow Army would turn a retreat into a Waterloo-like collapse
We must persevere...... Liu Chang also thought of one thing: to believe that the Russians did not react so quickly......
……
It's just the last madness
Meng Toban had already seen Nan Bohang rush up with about two platoons of infantry brandishing rifles with bayonets, and he could clearly see that some of these infantry were not even armed, and some were using revolvers that only high-ranking officers had
Therefore, it is logical for Meng Toban to think that this is just the last madness of the Rainbow Army, but it turns out that his prediction is completely wrong
After a bitter battle, the troops of the front line were reduced to only one reinforced company, and the support of two infantry platoons was nothing short of a rain for them, even though there were still thousands of French and Qing troops gathered there in front of them, but this could not stop their cheers
His Royal Highness King Yan
His Royal Highness King Yan
His Royal Highness King Yan
Nanbo Hang told them loudly: This will be the last and most crucial battle of the day, and we will have the victory in our hands after beating them
He also told these soldiers of the Rainbow Army: If we can't resist it, His Royal Highness King Yan will personally be killed by Rui here, do we still have to bear such a shame to kill
Kill, kill, kill
Kill, kill, kill
Kill, kill, kill
The front that was originally part of the confrontation became more disorganized and complicated by the addition of these two rows of infantry, and in some places even hand-to-hand combat was staged, and Major General Montoban had not received any reports from the Russian troops on both flanks until now, so he had to put the last reserves into battle in advance..., the French for the emperor
For the emperor
For the emperor
For the emperor
The Qing troops who fought with them did not understand what they were saying at all, they only knew that these French suddenly became crazy, and drove them forward with bayonet rifles, these poor people, who had worked hard all day, and some of them did this and that under the bayonets of the French, without even drinking a drop of water
Thousands of Qing soldiers in uniforms were already shouting under the threat of bayonets, and then turned into an avalanche, and they were enveloped in it, and from a distance, it was a truly terrifying scene
Open fire, fire
Artillery shotgun double shotguns
Give me the gun
It's just that the infantry and artillerymen in the fierce battle have no time to pay attention to the torrent of influx, they are now engaged in a catch-and-fight with their opponents in front of them, and only a few rifles will take care of this huge crowd
Liu Chang had already drawn his saber, and the cavalry around him also tightened their ropes, no matter whether Liu Chang chose the direction of the front or the rear, they would follow closely, this was their mission
But by this time about half a battalion of infantry had already appeared on the hillock, and they quickened their pace and shouted: Oh my God
We came at the right time
Don't worry that our Jiaxing detachment is coming
We are the 2nd Battalion of Dragon Lances
It shouldn't be the 2nd Dragon Lance Regiment
And in their procession, Li Guanglei had already heard their shouts: Then show the spirit of the dragon lance battalion and follow me
They stabbed past Liu Chang's horse team and towards the crowd opposite
And when they entered the French formation, it was the critical time when the French infantry was coerced by the Qing army, and now it was the most gorgeous moment of the whole battle
Countless blood was gushing, bayonets were mercilessly stabbing into people's bodies, cannonballs crushing all the enemies in front of them, and the continuous loss of blood on both sides had already caused some Qing troops to collapse, and they would rather be beaten to death by the overseers than dare to participate in such a fierce battle
At any time, someone fell, and someone paid huge sacrifices there, but the battle situation remained deadlocked, the Rainbow Army did not beat the French army out, and the French team, which had a great advantage in strength, also did not break through the defense line of the Rainbow Army, Liu Chang raised his saber again
Damn it
Meng Toban had to wipe the sweat from his forehead with a white handkerchief, he didn't expect these rebels to be so strong-willed to fight, they not only built a good defensive line, but also had an iron team to hold on here
In fact, the entire front was turned into a slaughter field gushing with blood, and soldiers could be seen fighting everywhere, but it took a while for Meng Toban to say to his adjutant: We will win in the end
The adjutant smiled: the French army has not lost a battle since His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne
This statement relieved Major General Montoban, and yes, since the accession to the throne of His Majesty Napoleon III, our French army has not lost a battle
……
The direction of the Marine Regiment was also fiercely clashed between the two sides, and at first the result of the Marine Regiment annihilating an Algerian infantry platoon made the French in front of them furious, even in the Crimea, they had not fought such a big defeat, so the battle became particularly bloody
Rather than even leaving prisoners behind, both sides threw all their strength into the equation in an attempt to finish off their opponents with a ferocious uppercut, but both proved to be good opponents, and neither side could tell the winner
Shi Huiji felt that this was the hardest day of his life, they had never imagined that such a wave of offensive would last so long, and now on the battlefield, both sides were exhausted, but the next moment they could hit a straight punch full of weight
The pace of the infantry's movement has become difficult, the ammunition is almost exhausted, and many times they can only rely on bayonets and even fists to solve the battle, but Shi Huiji clearly knows that he can't retreat..., he must not take a step back and the whole line collapses, not only will he lose more than 200 wounded in the battalion, all the heavy firearms, and most of the baggage, but in this case, most of the troops cannot be withdrawn at all, so he can only bite and hold on
And the French army on the opposite side also knew this, as long as they had the slightest willingness to retreat, then they would never be able to pass under the Arc de Triomphe again, both sides had exhausted all means, but there was no way to open the situation in front of them
But over there, Fu Wendao quickly gave Shi Huiji a big problem: Han Zhonghan, the company commander, gather your company...... And how many
It was too late to name them one by one, and there were bullets flying everywhere, and Han Zhong could only make a slight estimate: there were about seventy people......
Some personnel may have participated in the battle in other positions and have not yet been contained, but this is also the only mobile force in the hands of Shi Huiji and Fu Wendao, Shi Huiji just wanted to put these seventy people into it, but when he heard Fu Wendao, he made an unexpected choice: Seeing that His Royal Highness King Yan did not
I saw Han Zhong's young face with envy and admiration: he was with us, and he was only two hundred meters away from the front line......
Putting His Royal Highness King Yan in such a dangerous situation is the greatest shame for our soldiers, and Fu Wendao has already given the order: Now I will hand over the most glorious mission to you, Company Commander Han
Just the moment he spoke, Fu Wendao had already pulled the plate of the revolver that was loaded, and the bullet was loaded: Go to support His Royal Highness King Yan
The barrel of the revolver has been pressed on Han Zhong's temple: or die (to be continued, if you like this work, you are welcome to come (.) Vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation)
