Chapter 247: Rush to the Rescue

The precursor of Zhang Yuliang's army was the brave battalion of the Qing army that had just been defeated, but after changing the leadership of the people, seeing the villagers shouting loudly to go into battle, the morale of the whole team had already been raised.

There are no soldiers in the world who can't fight, there are no generals who can't be led, and a good general plays an exemplary role, which is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Therefore, these seven or eight hundred soldiers bravely came back with a murderous spirit, but they were only ten miles out of the city, and the Hong Army, who was collecting the spoils of war on the front line of the ** gate, had already obtained the exact news: "Zhang Yuliang is desperate and has pulled the team out!" ”

"Prepare for defense, prepare for defense, and pack all the sub-medicines!"

The cadres gave orders loudly, but although some troops were gathered at the temporary time, the total strength of the Hong Army near the ** gate was only the size of two reinforced infantry platoons and a small amount of artillery, and it could not withstand the large-scale impact of Zhang Yuliang's army at all.

It's just that Zheng Zhangyu, the deputy commander of the infantry company, also made up his mind, and he took the lead in shouting: "With our rock battalion, we can definitely defend like a rock!" ”

Although he is now the deputy company commander of the 3rd Independent Battalion, no one can say that he said the wrong thing when he shouts like this, and the 3rd Independent Battalion and the Panshi Battalion are brothers, and they are always close together.

He took the lead in leading the team to kill: "Brother, I'll go up and kill for a while!" Why do you want to block the Qing Demon, you brothers have pressed me down! ”

He was a butcher before he joined the army, and now he has the temperament of a butcher in battle, so he led the team out of the ** door directly, and they walked four or five miles, and they met the striker of Zhang Yuliang's army, and the two sides immediately opened fire.

He personally held a firing pistol in his hand and shouted: "Rock Battalion, no one is allowed to retreat!" ”

In terms of combat effectiveness, the independent battalion was a little higher than these re-energized warriors, but there were seven or eight hundred brave men in the vanguard, and there were only fifty or sixty men in his hands.

It's just that Zheng Zhangyu is very slippery, and he shouted loudly: "Hit the official, hit the official first!" ”

And on the left side there was an infantry company to cover, the two troops joined forces, and they first concentrated their firepower to shoot the officers in the rout, these new generals, thousands of generals, and foreign commissioners can be said to be the core backbone of the Qing army's forward, killing five or six, these seven or eight hundred Qing troops finally started a confrontation with Zheng Zhangyu.

It's just that they didn't step down, but quickly retreated a little to sort it out, and then, their backing had rushed up, Zhang Yuliang's troops were equipped with a lot of foreign guns and foreign artillery, they first used Xiaoyang artillery to bombard twice, and then invested three or four hundred Qing troops, Zheng Zhangyu found that the original method of beating officers was no longer feasible, and an infantry company plus a reinforced platoon was a little difficult to deal with, and shouted loudly: "Damn, the Qing demon hasn't really done it yet!" ”

And then, Zhuang Yong, who had just collapsed again, saw that his side had the upper hand, and was stimulated by a higher reward, and immediately shouted: "Kill, kill!" ”

Seven or eight hundred brave men outflanked from both wings, Zheng Zhangyu was a little difficult to deal with, and now he felt that it was difficult to deal with, although the brave fighters who rushed up were not strong, at most they played a role in shaking the flag and shouting, but after all, it was seven or eight hundred people, he immediately shouted: "Get on the bayonet, rush forward!" ”

"Get on the bayonet! Get on the bayonet! ”

Only the veterans from the Rock Battalion had the courage to fight hand-to-hand, and they familiarly mounted their rifles with bayonets, while the recruits stood behind them, waiting for the veterans' next move.

"Rush! Kill! ”

Although Zhang Yuliang's soldiers are not weak in combat, but there are not many scenes of such white soldiers encountering, when they see the red thieves killing out like a tide, they were taken aback, and the hand-to-hand combat between the two sides only lasted for a moment, and then Zhang Yuliang's troops retreated first, ready to use firepower to solve the rest of the battle. ..., and the brave on both sides retreated faster, but this time Zheng Zhangyu also received a shot of lead, and he shouted loudly: "Retreat, be careful of the demon's artillery, be careful!" ”

By this time, the Qing army had already begun to shoot with shotguns and grapeballs, and the infantry retreated to the breastwork, suffering some losses, and Zheng Zhangyu saw with his own eyes that a deputy platoon commander of the Panshi battalion was unfortunately killed.

On the other side of the battlefield, Zhang Yuliang already has the bottom, this team of red thief veterans and new recruits have it, the combat effectiveness is not weak, but the number of troops is too small, he has 4,000 soldiers, if he can't defeat the red thief in front of him, then how can he be worthy of Xiang Shuai's trust.

It's just that the next moment, he hesitated, and another red thief was killed in front of him, full of foreign guns, wrapped in a red scarf on his head, and a white armed belt around his waist, obviously a team of old red thieves, although the number was only more than a hundred, but it could not be underestimated.

It's just that he hesitated, and the red thief guarding the position over there had already retreated, and Zheng Zhangyu asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?" How to withdraw! ”

"Sun Huzi has already led a large group of people to the ** gate!" The deputy commander of the 3rd Independent Battalion, who came to support, told him: "Sun Huzi is here!" ”

"Good!" Zheng Zhangyu immediately laughed: "Sun Huzi is here, the things that the Qing Demon dropped this time are all our trophies!" ”

The deputy battalion commander told him: "Sun Huzi asked us to pick you up, the troops have already used the village to build fortifications at the ** gate, no matter how many demons come, we have two battalions!" ”

And at the ** gate, Sun Huzi swept the spoils of war with joy, the Panshi battalion has a small family background, and it has obtained so many trophies, I am afraid that in addition to weapons, there is no problem in expanding a regiment.

"The 3rd Independent Battalion is on the left flank, and the Rock Battalion is on the right flank, we must wait until the checkpoint arrives!"

He had already quickly informed Liu Chang that this time Zhang Yuliang was willing to make a big move, so it was a good time to cross Zhang Yuliang in the field battle, presumably the Dragon Lance Battalion and the Panshi Battalion would soon rush over to participate in this battle.

"The main force of the red thief is up!"

Zhang Yuliang, as a veteran, had clearly observed the changes on the battlefield, he clenched his fists and said: "Hurry up and return to Pujiang City, and bring the team left in the city with Pujiang. The people of the county are brave and brave, and they all pull me up! It's just two battalions, and I, Zhang Yuliang, can eat it! ”

"And!" Zhang Yuliang ordered again: "Hurry up and ask the prefect of Jinhua Shi for help, let him lead the troops to fight and harass the red thieves, and also, the militia group in Lanxi County heard that it is very effective, and also asked them to send troops together, the morale of this battle is available, the red thieves are just two battalion heads, I have four or five thousand soldiers, even if I spit, I can drown the red thieves!" ”

He commanded again: "Don't worry, the arrival of the Red Thief's brigade will take at least a day!" ”

At this moment, the battle on the front line has become intense, and the newly won battle has come into contact with the newly formed independent third battalion, and both sides have paid a lot of casualties, but the defeat Yong feels that he has Zhang Yuliang's main force behind him, and a few foreign cannons to cover him, plus a huge amount of reward, it is also quite desperate.

Zhang Yuliang also invested two battalions in a timely manner to assist in the attack, after all, the third independent battalion was a new unit, and the troops participating in the battle only had more than half an infantry battalion, so they lost several strongholds under such circumstances.

But in this case, Zheng Zhangyu, the butcher, led the team to kill again, and always repelled Zhang Yuliang's offensive.

The battle on the right flank was even more intense, with fifty or sixty casualties on both sides, and even in this case, the Rock Battalion brought in a reinforced platoon to support the left flank.

Sun Huzi didn't expect Zhang Yuliang to be more difficult to fight than he imagined, and his troops were not fully in place, and Yiwu County left the remaining troops, but when it came to such a time, it was time to be more determined: "Just fight until night!" ”…,……

"What? The main force of the Panshi Battalion and the 3rd Independent Battalion fought fiercely with Zhang Yuliang's troops on the front line of the ** gate, and asked for reinforcements from the Dragon Lance Battalion and the Nanxi Battalion! ”

Shi Tinglan found the location of the ** door on the map for the first time: "In Pujiang. In the prefecture! ”

The messenger of the news was sweating all over, and he said loudly: "Check, the main force of the Qing Demon Zhang Yuliang has all come out, and we have been looking for such an opportunity to annihilate the enemy in a field battle for a long time!" ”

"The history of the third independent battalion is too new, I'm afraid it won't be reliable at this time!" Liu Chang was a little worried: "Now the Panshi Battalion and the three independent battalions have gone up?" ”

"The 3rd Independent Battalion left a reinforced company in Yiwu!"

"This Sun Beard!" Liu Chang could only say one sentence, and he said to Shi Tinglan: "Go and invite Camp Commander Zhou, and also, I want to go into battle in person!" ”

"Checkpoint?" Shi Tinglan and Yang Changmei were a little curious: "How can you say that there are two battalions on Camp Commander Sun's side, right?" ”

"Zhang Yuliang is not simple! Can't be underestimated, I'm afraid that they won't be able to hold out today, give orders! ”

As he was talking, news came from the front line over there: "Jinhua's Qing Demon has moved!" They sent hundreds of brave soldiers and 1,6700 brave and green battalion soldiers who could still fight out of the city, and Shi Jingfen personally led the team. ”

Liu Chang glanced at the sky, and now it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon: "This is to respond to Zhang Yuliang of the ** gate, ignore him, and let the independent battalion be responsible!" Order, the dragon spear battalion and the rock battalion, immediately assemble, rush to the ** gate, and strive to annihilate Zhang Yuliang's troops! ”

"If this battle is fought, then Jinhua Mansion will be ours!"

As she was talking, Zhou Xiuying over there was already dressed in military uniform, and rushed over with a war horse: "Check!" I'm coming! ”

Liu Chang asked Zhou Xiuying directly: "How many men and horses can the cavalry battalion dispatch now?" ”

Zhou Xiuying immediately replied: "In addition to the wounded and those on duty outside, the cavalry battalion can dispatch men and horses to ride 94!" ”

"Enough!" Liu Chang immediately said: "Camp Commander Zhou, get ready, Sun Huzi and Zhang Yuliang are working at the ** gate of Pujiang, he only has two battalions in his hands, I am afraid that Sun Hu will not be able to support it, you and I will go to the ** gate immediately!" ”

Zhou Xiuying replied without hesitation: "Resolutely obey the order!" ”
