Andreas came to Lin Zhaolong and turned over and dismounted: "Sir, my subordinates are derelict in their duties." ”

Lin Zhaolong raised his hand to stop Andreas: "Rescue the wounded immediately." Herald, go and invite Chief of Staff Xu over. ”

Xu Lang and Gao Chen came to Lin Zhaolong's side.

"Do you know who this North Korean general is?" Lin Zhaolong's first question asked the name of his opponent.

Xu Lang shook his head: "I don't know, but he is very experienced and good at fighting." ”

"We've got a match." Lin Zhaolong gritted his teeth, "Damn, I have to kill them today." ”

"Zhaolong, what do you want to do?" Xu Lang's fire was also hooked.

"Let's do this." Lin Zhaolong said, "Our purpose is to attract Taogong's troops in Tianjin, so we can't wipe out this army in Majiakou, but we must inflict heavy losses on them." You let Zhao Qi continue to fight with them and attract their cannons. I asked people to make some shield cars to guard against flintlock pistols, and you transferred a thousand men from Xu Tianbin's regiment to me and use rifled guns to deal with them. ”

"It's a good idea." Xu Lang said, "But Zhaolong, our rifled guns are only equipped with twenty rounds of ammunition each, and we have to keep them to deal with Tao Gong, so don't run out of them." ”

Lin Zhaolong finally smiled: "Don't worry, it won't." ”

The artillery of both sides continued to fire at each other for a while, and each of them died down. By 4 o'clock in the afternoon, more than 30 shield wagons had been built, and the Fifth Infantry Regiment was lined up.

Lin Zhaolong spit the cigarette in his mouth on the ground: "Herald, tell Chief of Staff Xu that they can shell." ”

Once again, the artillery on both sides rang out with an earth-shattering roar.

More than 30 shield carts slowly pushed towards Majiakou, followed by a thousand soldiers of the Fifth Regiment, and then Andreas's cavalry regiment. Lin Zhaolong invested a lot of money this time.

The commander of the Korean army saw the shield car of the Yulin Army and sneered: "Come on, the archers are preparing rockets." ”

Several bonfires were lit, and a row of archers with bows and arrows stood by the campfire, waiting for orders.

However, the Korean chief was surprised to find that the shield cart of the Yulin Army stopped more than 100 zhang away from the low wall and did not leave. The soldiers in the back bypassed the shield carts and lined up in three rows.

"What are they going to do?" The leader of the staff secretly doubted in his heart, "Do they want to charge with infantry?" ”

Xu Tianbin was followed by a sniper group selected from the Fifth Infantry Regiment, and after assessment, Xu Tianbin formed a sniper team of thirty people.

Xu Tianbin immediately handed the monocular to the leader of the sniper team: "Do you see the person standing on the house in front of you, kill him." ”

The leader of the sniper team held the binoculars and looked at them for a while, then stretched out his finger to test the wind direction and speed: "Sir, there are some difficulties. We are now 150 meters away from the target, and the rifled gun is not accurate enough. ”

"I didn't let you fight alone." Xu Tianbin said with a smile, "Can't you kill a person with 30 guns in your sniper team?" ”

The team leader patted his head: "The subordinates are stupid." ”

Thirty rifled guns fired at a target, and the North Korean officer on the roof shook his body and rolled off the roof.

"Sir, you've been hit."

Xu Tianbin waved the order flag in his hand: "Fire!" ”

600 rifled guns opened fire at a distance of more than 130 meters from the low wall, and after three rows of gunfire, none of the North Koreans behind the low wall showed their heads, and no one expected that the Yulin Army's muskets could hit so far.

Xu Tianbin waved the command flag again: "The shield cart advances, and the infantry follows." ”

The shield cart rumbled forward 30 meters and stopped again, and the low wall began to return fire, but the North Koreans' flintlock guns hit up to 100 meters, and still could not hit the shield cart.

600 soldiers did not advance anymore and began to suppress fire at a distance of 110 meters. More than 30 shield carts slowly but stubbornly approached the low wall, stopping every twenty or thirty meters, and the ten soldiers behind the shield carts fired once. The double suppression of fire made it impossible for the North Koreans behind the low wall to show their heads at all, and they could only barely stop the advance of the Yulin army by throwing rockets, but it was basically ineffective.

The shield carts stopped 50 meters from the low wall and stopped advancing, and several shield carts were hit by rockets and set on fire.

"Captain Andreas." Xu Tianbin turned his head and shouted, "Now it's time for your cavalry regiment to behave." ”

Andreas held his breath and raised the Cossack scimitar in his hand high: "First team, attack." ”

Thirty horses rushed out of the ranks, and instead of riding rifles or scimitars, they had a hook in their hands.

Thirty men rushed to the bottom of the low wall, and their hooks flew into the low wall. As soon as the horse's head turned, the rope tied to the saddle immediately straightened.

"Drive, drive, drive." The 30 cavalrymen continued to whip the horses, and finally with a "boom", the low wall was dragged down for a while.

"Fire." The 400 rifled guns behind the shield cart fired Mini rounds at the gap.

"Cavalry regiment, charge!"

Without the threat of flintlock pistols and gunpowder packs, the cavalry regiment quickly rushed through the gap into Majiakou.

"Kill the thief!" Andreas finished his two handcuffs and drew his Cossack scimitar and slashed all the way through.

Two hundred cavalrymen of the Korean New Army were improvised and launched a counter-charge against the cavalry regiment.

"Rush." The cavalry regiment did not love to fight, the place inside Majiakou was cramped, and the enemy had spears, which was not very suitable for cavalry combat. After a circle, the cavalry regiment withdrew through the gap.

"Plug the gap." The deputy chief of staff of the Korean New Army took over the command.

The Cavalry Regiment and the Fifth Infantry Regiment withdrew back to a distance of 300 meters, and the artillery on Xu Lang's side also stopped roaring.

The deputy staff leader looked at the chaotic Ma Jiakou who was rushed and was secretly anxious, he was seriously injured, and he lost no less than 300 people in the battle just now, and what was even worse was that nearly half of the 200 cavalry were defeated, and the casualty rate was too great.

Xu Lang didn't have any sense of ease, the wave of attacks just now achieved good results, but the North Koreans' sense of battle surprised him very much. Andreas's cavalry regiment lost more than 30 more, a casualty rate that the Yulin army could not bear.

"Gao Chen." Xu Lang shouted, "Bring the guard platoon, I'm going to talk to the North Koreans." ”

"Chief of Staff, you can't go." Gao Chen and Ye Zhan shouted at the same time.

"It doesn't matter." Xu Lang smiled, "Didn't you also say that an army will have the option of surrender after being besieged, I'll go see if the Koreans will surrender." ”

"No, sir." Ye Zhan insisted, "Your subordinates must report to Deputy Division Commander Lin, and your subordinates can't let you go without the order of the Deputy Division Commander." ”
