Chapter 386: Raise your body to Qingchi
Chapter 386 Raise your body to Qingchi
Cavalry was an invincible existence in the history of warfare, and the knightly system appeared in the West, but the appearance of gunpowder and phalanx destroyed the knights and castles, and turned the cavalry from a decisive force in a frontal confrontation to a pursuit force invested after the infantry and artillery opened a gap.
Unfortunately, China in the East, which had not yet completed such a military revolution, was led into the darkness of two hundred years by the barbaric Jurchen heavy cavalry, and now it was this revolutionary military progress that was unfolding before the monk king, and their opponent was the Manchurian horse army, which had been in retreat for two hundred years in degradation.
He watched incredulously as his cavalry could only circle around the phalanx one after another, dizzy, but none of the cavalrymen dared to pull out their own troops, and dared to bravely bump into the spear forest composed of bayonets, but they were far away in a meaningless circle, and his heart was dripping blood.
This is the most elite horse team of the Qing Dynasty, if at the beginning of the country, the horse team led by Taizu will not hesitate to charge away with such a gun array with the most dense formation with an astonishing spirit of sacrifice, and they even dismount to form a formation and force a surprise attack, but the Manchurian cavalry and the green battalion cavalry of this time and space, they have been reduced to a group of nomadic combinations.
Time passed in such a torment, and he saw dozens of cavalry falling from their horses by the rain of red thieves, and the white mist rising in the distance made this battlefield so hateful.
He glanced at He Chun, the minister of the Qin mission to supervise military affairs and the governor of Jiangnan He Chun was already sitting on the ground and crying, he shouted loudly: "Grandpa Tai, Grandpa Tai, where is your invincible horse team, is this the horse team of the Qing Dynasty?" β
This is the horse team of the Qing Dynasty, and Seng Lingqin had to accept this cavalry, but the distant battlefield appeared again, and two new large phalanxes entered the battlefield, which made the whole battle situation take a new turn.
"Whose troops is that?" Ju Dun immediately searched for their flags, and then he shouted, "Zhu Hailan, it's good to come!" Well done! After this battle, I will swear goodbye to you brother and sister! β
These two phalanxes are standard infantry battalion hollow phalanxes, which are much thicker and more conspicuous than the hollow phalanx formed by the front troops with one infantry company or two infantry companies as the backbone, which also makes Juton relieved, no matter what, this battle dragon spear regiment is invincible, even if the infantry phalanx in front is crossed by the Qing cavalry troops, it can be contained.
And in the front phalanx, Chen Duoyun also breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, he couldn't believe that his phalanx could withstand the charge of these thousands of cavalry, and when the Qing army team that was like a flood poured down, he, a veteran, couldn't control the idea of retreating.
But the past infantry and cavalry actual combat training told that retreating before the impact of thousands of iron cavalry was definitely a dead end, so he straightened his chest, but he found that the shooting action of the soldiers of his company had been deformed, and he could usually shoot three or four rounds, but now he could only shoot two or even one bullet, and some soldiers even shook their hands and fought hard against their own generals.
He walked over and kicked the little soldier in the ass, and then shouted: "Calm down, it's just a few thousand cavalry, and it's not that you haven't practiced!" β
But it was just Zhou Xiuying's cavalry engaging in confrontational drills, he felt that these thousands of horses would drown their small phalanx of only two hundred people in an instant, but an incredible scene appeared, behind the snow bright bayonet forest, Liu Duoyun saw with his own eyes hundreds of horse teams bypassing their phalanx and detouring towards the wings, and he almost knelt down. ...That's right! The inspector was right, absolutely right, his fanaticism returned, and he was full of energy, and shouted, "Quick! Fast! Fast! Shoot! β
After the feeling of escaping death, the phalanx formed by the entire second company as the backbone suddenly burst into vitality again, and their gunfire was so dense that white smoke rose one after another, drowning out the shadows of the officers and men, and the horse team on the opposite side was already blocking the front of the second company.
Some of the horsemen followed the course of the horse team in front of them, and bypassed the two flanks of the second company of hollow phalanxes, while more cavalry stared at the facts in front of them in a daze, and they stopped, trying to start a confrontation with the rainbow army.
At Bali Bridge, the monk's horse team was standing on horseback and engaged in such a confrontation with the British and French troops, and their bows and arrows and shotguns had obviously caused some casualties, but the front of the second company had turned into a tide of bloodβyes, a tide of blood.
This place has become the target of concentrated artillery bombardment, solid shells, shotguns, grenades, grapeshot bombs and even incendiary bombs, plus the results of the concentrated fire of at least three infantry phalanxes, every moment the Qing army fell off their horses, and the guns from the rear even accidentally injured several soldiers of the second company.
But Liu Duoyun personally held a revolver and shot at the Qing army on the front line, shouting: "Brothers, you can't retreat!" After this battle, we will be the first company of the whole army! β
As one of the oldest infantry companies of the Rainbow Army, the second company of the dragon spear broke out in this bloody battle with amazing perseverance, although there were thousands of them on the opposite side, they were still incredibly dense to shoot at the opposite side, and even ready to fight the dismounted cavalry rushing up at any time, and sometimes the frightened horses would crash into the bayonet formation.
β¦β¦
And Zhu Hailan's eyes are another scene.
Countless cavalry were walking like a labyrinth, spinning, shooting, dismounting and even crying in one phalanx after another, and there were almost no cavalry in front of them, but with the sound of horses' hooves, finally a cavalry with half blood rushed in front of the phalanx.
Liu Senyan, who rushed to the front, finally squeezed in front of Zhu Hailan's phalanx after going through several circles, he almost couldn't believe his eyes, this phalanx was different from the previous phalanx, this was a thick phalanx with a triple human wall, he didn't know how many people there were in this phalanx, he only knew that his impact had come to an end.
And Zhu Hailan saw a lone Qing cavalry bypassing one labyrinth phalanx after another, and finally rushed to her own phalanx, she drew her saber without any scruples, and ordered: "Shoot in the first row!" β
"First row shooting!"
The soldier who was half-kneeling on the ground had already familiarly pressed the trigger, and in front of at least a hundred rounds of bullets, Zhu Hailan saw a scene, this cavalryman flew through the rain of bullets unscathed, and behind him were more Qing cavalry: "Volley!" Salvo! β
Liu Senyan didn't know what adjectives to use to describe the thrill he had just now, there were at least a hundred rifles aimed at him, and several bullets even slid past his body, bringing a burning sensation, but he still didn't dare to rush into such a bayonet forest.
It's Jedi!
On the left is another more massive hollow phalanx, on the right is the lake with a depth of several feet, and in the rear is the infantry phalanx that he just rushed out, and now it is this infantry phalanx that is too thick to speak, he looks at the hundreds of snow-bright bayonets, he feels that he is dead!
He heard the dull sound of falling horses behind him, and he knew that these colleagues had almost no chance of surviving, even if they didn't fall to their deaths, they would be shot alive by the red thief, and now at this time, the red thief would not accept his surrender at all!
What to do! He finally thought of a way, he clamped his legs, struggled to hold the horse's neck, pulled the horse's head, and the whole man and the horse rushed towards the lake in an instant. β¦,
The officers and men of the Rainbow Army had already seen a miraculous scene, their second salvo almost wiped out the cavalry that rushed up behind, leaving the unbeatable guy, under the next salvo of the Rainbow Army, he and the war horse had already flown into the lake, and then this lucky guy had been freed from the war horse.
His actions clearly set an example for many of the later Qing cavalry, who were rushing towards the lake at a high speed, preferring to drown rather than crash into the bayonet forest of the phalanx.
β¦β¦
Seeing that the war horses were planted in the lake one by one, and watching the infantry phalanx at the front withstand the pressure and launch a round of round-to-wheel shooting with the rainbow army, Zhu Dun already had a smile on his face: "Tell the second company!" If you can't hold on, you can retreat appropriately! β
The 240 men of the 200-man phalanx of the 2nd Company, including the subordinate units, have suffered more than half of the casualties so far, but many wounded soldiers are half-kneeling on the ground, struggling to reload ammunition and shoot at the Qing troops on the opposite side.
At this time, the cavalry of the Qing army no longer had a commanding command, and the horse team behind did not know what was going on in front of them, but they all stopped and blocked the front of the second company.
The strength of this platoon made Liu Duoyun, who was hanging the color, almost jump up, and he shouted loudly: "I, Liu Duoyun, would rather die than retreat, and stay with me!" β
In the back, Qu Jie was a little frightened and said: "Judun is really confused! This first phalanx, how can it be a battalion phalanx, just a second company, a little thinner! β
"Even if you can cross a phalanx of our army, you can't rush across my dragon spear regiment!" Liu Chang defended Zhu Dun: "This battle is over, and you have surpassed Huo Qiu again!" β
"That's, that's!" Qu Jie was very modest: "The main thing is that the 63rd Regiment performed very well, and Commander Zhu Hailan cooperated well!" β
As he was talking, the offensive of the Qing army changed a little, and it was Shengbao who pressed up with the seven or eight thousand infantry team under his command, and he shouted: "Rush up!" Rush up! When the brave meets on a narrow road, the horse team rushes up! When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! "ββu-c-t-x-tββ[UCebook]End of body [UCebook]ββuββcββtββx-t
