Chapter 176: Robbery of the Grain Brigade Annihilation of the Pursuers

Judging that there were two fast horses running over, Li Jing hurriedly waved his hand. The special forces understood this, and they quickly took out the rope from their backpacks and stopped the rope in the path that the two horses had to pass. When the two horses came closer, several special forces who were ambushed on both sides of the road worked together to pull the rope, and the two horses were tripped by the rope one after another, and even the people and horses fell to the ground. The people in front of them went up and tied up the two people who had fallen half to death.

Li Jing saw that they were two Mongolian soldiers.

One of Li Jing's special forces, who had learned a little Mongolian, stumbled in Mongolian and began to interrogate the two captives. Like all Mongolian soldiers, they all went through a special education of special forces to stop scolding and began to be obedient.

Because the gap between the Mongolian dialects of the two sides was too great, it took a long time to finally understand that the two Mongolian soldiers came from the grain and grass base in the east, and their task was to inform Azig that the brigade transporting grain and grass was about to arrive, and asked them to send troops to meet them.

The grain and grass that were transported to the naturalization with the soldiers and horses of the Ezhe brigade were only enough for temporary use, and a large amount of grain and grass was hoarded in the gathering place of the Ezhe and their Chahar tribes. Because the grain and straw trucks were too slow to move with the brigade, they needed to transport grain to the front regularly.

Li Jing knew this time, and immediately sent a telegram to Liu Yun, informing him that the grain transportation team of Liu Yun's brigade was about to arrive, and where they were.

Liu Yun immediately telegraphed back and said, "Don't act yet, I'll be there soon with two cavalry regiments." ”

Li Jing had no choice but to take his men and horses to find a place to hide again, but sent a reconnaissance team to the east to continue the reconnaissance. Until the evening, the reconnaissance special forces returned, and they had already seen the brigade's transport convoy from a distance, there were 2,000 wagons, the convoy was moving very slowly, and it was estimated that one day it would be almost here.

Li Jing estimated that Liu Yun and the others had been walking for most of the day today, and they would be able to arrive here tomorrow afternoon at the latest, which would be enough time to deal with this transport team. This time, we will strive to directly transport the grain to Dongsheng Prefecture. In the future, those immigrants who will open up the land will need a lot of food.

Li Jing and Liu Yun were worried about Azig's grain transport team, and Azig himself was worried about it. It stands to reason that the grain delivery team should also come. Usually, he doesn't worry too much about the grain team, because when the food team is about to arrive, they will send someone to contact them first and ask them to send someone to greet them. However, he sent out to find the more than 5,000 cavalry who attacked his artillery camp, and there was no trace of him after he went out, which made Azig's psychology very unstable. That's more than 5,000 elite cavalry, how can you say that it's gone. Thinking of this, Azig decided not to wait for the grain team to send someone to contact, and first sent out a thousand cavalry to meet the grain team.

Just as Li Jing estimated, Liu Yun and the others arrived the next afternoon. However, Li Jing and the others estimated the speed of the grain transport team to be high, and they were still far from there. Liu Yun and Li Jing discussed it and went to the front area to meet the grain transport team. When it was almost dark, the scouts in front reported that they had found the grain convoy camping in front.

Li Jing was a little lazy, "Senior brother! I see them encamped, and we rest. ”

Liu Yun knew what the hell Li Jing had in mind, "What, are you going to rob the camp at night?" ”

"I'm not that stupid! After we had robbed the camp, we had to feed the horses and set up the carts early tomorrow morning, which was more than 2,000 carts. It's just too much trouble. Li Jing shook her head and said.

Liu Yun couldn't keep up with Li Jing's train of thought a little, "Little rabbit, what is your idea?" ”

"Didn't I say that? They rest, and so do we. When they're ready to go on the road early tomorrow morning, I'll just go over and pick up the carriage and drive away. Li Jing said.

"Great idea! Just listen to you. Liu Yun admires this junior brother from the bottom of his heart, he has a lot of ghost ideas.

Liu Yun and Li Jing also set up camp and rested behind a mound in the distance with their cavalry.

As soon as it was dawn, Liu Yun and Li Jing stood on the mound to observe the terrain, and then asked everyone to quickly eat something and make operational arrangements.

Although on the grassland, the carriages and horses do not have to walk strictly according to the road, because most of the roads on the grassland are temporarily stepped out, but it cannot be too far behind, because since it is the road stepped out by the predecessors, it can be walked, and if you don't follow the road, you may not be able to walk. More than 2,000 carriages have been a long time from the start of the first car to the start of the last car. Even if the two cars were in parallel, the convoy was dragged out for a long time.

Not long after the grain convoy hit the road, Liu Yun led a group of cavalry to meet the direction of the grain convoy, and the soldiers rushed along both sides of the grain convoy in two ways, one left and one right. The more than 50 cavalry guards who opened the way in front of them immediately beat their horses and waved their swords to meet them when they found that they were not good. But they found that the opponent did not hold a saber, and before he got close to the opponent, the opponent could not see what it was, and the fire flashed, and then they heard a "pop" sound, and they received several heavy blows to the head and chest, and they fell off the horse when they could not sit still, and they did not know anything.

Liu Yun and the others killed the guards of the grain transport team, and the war horses did not stop, so they rushed forward with the grain transport team. As he rushed over, he shot and killed the guards and the drivers without stopping with his rifle in his hand.

While Liu Yun and the others were moving, Li Jing led a team of cavalry to start a flanking operation from behind. Where could these small number of cavalry guards and Mongol soldiers who were driving the chariot be able to stop the Yaogang cavalry, they were all killed on the carriage and on the side of the road. However, there were still some cavalry who reacted quickly, and they did not rush recklessly against the kiln cavalry, but ran directly to the grassland on horseback. Riding a horse and galloping on the steppe, compared with the Mongol soldiers, the Yaogang cavalry had no advantage. I could only watch them run away.

There was no suspense in the battle, and Liu Yun ordered all the Mongol corpses on the carriage to be taken down. The Yaogang cavalry all dismounted and became grooms, driving the carriages away from the original road and heading southwest.

Liu Yun took some people to open the way in front, and Li Jing led some people to the back hall. A large cart carrying grain marched on the grassland.

The Mongolian cavalry who had escaped, seeing that there were no pursuers behind them, discerned the direction and ran in the direction of naturalization. They knew that Azig had to be informed and asked to send troops to chase the grain convoy, because the convoy could not go fast, and if a large cavalry arrived, they might be able to recover the grain.

These galloping Mongol soldiers met a group of cavalry who had come to meet them on the way. When this cavalry heard that the grain transport team had been robbed, they were furious, and they didn't know who robbed the grain and how many people there were. Now they dare to rob grain trucks so boldly on the grassland, they are simply looking for death.

This team was led by a thousand households of the Horqin tribe, and their more than 1,000 cavalrymen, with their hooves raised, galloped wildly on the steppe in the direction where the grain cart had been stolen pointed out by the Mongol soldiers. By the time it was almost noon, they had seen from afar, a long convoy moving slowly on the grassland in front of them. The idea of this thousand households was to go straight to the middle of the convoy and cut the convoy into two parts at once. And then the people who rob the grain will be eliminated.

Liu Yun and Li Jing had already heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and they had seen them earlier than this thousand households. Because Liu Yun and Li Jing both had telescopes, they saw them at both ends of the team at the same time, and there were more than 1,000 cavalrymen coming. The two brothers didn't need to discuss, they knew how to destroy more than 1,000 people.

The marching grain transport team did not stop at all, but when the Mongolian cavalry rushed into the convoy, several heavy machine guns on the car fired, and the heavy machine guns of "Da Da Da" sprinkled bullets at the cavalry that were also getting closer and closer. Chino, who led the team, found that the cavalry that rushed ahead was blown to the ground like grass blown by the wind. He was also surrounded by people behind him, and only then did he feel a chill in the back of his neck. Could it be that his brave and invincible cavalry doesn't even have the ability to parry in front of others? But he didn't have a chance to figure it out, so he surrounded their cavalry behind, and without pausing when he closed the siege, he rushed straight at them, firing a dense barrage of bullets at the same time. Including this Qianhu, I don't know how many blood holes I have been beaten.

More than 1,000 machete-wielding Mongol cavalry were surrounded by more than 2,000 kiln cavalry armed with automatic rifles, just like hunting around a yellow sheep, without any suspense. The battle was quickly over.

Liu Yun ordered the scattered war horses to be brought back, and cut some of the dead war horses and brought them up. The convoy marched on the steppe again. Liu Yun looked at the soldiers who didn't even feel a little excited after the battle, and knew that the people of Yaogang were accustomed to such a victory, and thought to himself that this was the real warrior.

When the cavalry who escaped from the grain transport team ran back to the outside of Hua City, they reported to Azig that the grain transport team had been robbed, and when the thousand households led a thousand cavalry to chase the grain transport team, Azig smashed a cup in his hand. He was angry that the thousand households were not crazy or stupid, and more than 1,000 of them were not sent to death.

At this time, in one of the solid mountains of the Great Tent of Azig, he said, "Lord Belle! Now is not the time to get angry, I need to send someone to chase that grain convoy quickly. Their convoy could not go fast on the steppe. ”

Azig was a little embarrassed, he didn't know how many people to send to chase after him. He didn't know what happened to those 5,000 people last time, but if too many people were sent out, it would reduce the force of encirclement and naturalization.

This Gushan saw Azig's concerns and said, "Lord Belle! This time we need to send at least 10,000 cavalry to chase after us. Otherwise, we will still be meat buns and dogs. ”

Azig looked up at this solid mountain and said, "I don't worry about sending others, I think you will personally lead people to chase after you!" Be sure to chase the food back. ”

This Gushan was so angry in his heart, and thought to himself, "I have a lot of words, and I have found such an errand for myself, unlucky!" ”

There is no way, since you want to go out to pursue, you must do it as soon as possible, this Gushan immediately returned to the camp and gathered 2,000 Qing soldiers, and brought 8,000 Mongolian cavalry to chase east.

After chasing eastward for a while, the Mongol soldiers who led the way of the grain transport team pointed out to them the direction of the pursuit of the thousand cavalry. And they pursued it in that direction.

Li Jing walked in the convoy for a while, and Tima caught up with Liu Yun and said, "Senior brother, I estimate that the Mongolian soldiers who ran away now should be naturalized." If Azig sends a large army to chase us, they will still catch up with us before we reach Dongshengzhou. The convoy was too slow. ”

Liu Yun said: "I am also thinking about this, I will immediately send a telegram to Dongshengzhou, asking them to leave an infantry regiment to stay in Dongshengzhou." Two other cavalry regiments and an infantry regiment came out, and we used this convoy as bait. Fight them well on the grassland. ”

"I think it's okay, that's it. I guess they'll be able to catch up tomorrow. I'll send troops out tomorrow with a radio station to monitor the whereabouts of the pursuers. Li Jing said.

The two cavalry regiments that remained in Dongshengzhou and the infantry regiment that Liu Yun had selected to go out of the city to fight were so happy to hear that they were allowed to go out of the city to prepare for battle. They were trapped in Dongsheng Prefecture and couldn't participate in the war, and they were all suffocated. They immediately prepared their equipment according to Liu Yun's instructions, opened the city gate and ran in the direction of Liu Yun's travel. Since the infantry were also on horseback, they marched very fast, and they met Liu Yun's convoy before dark.

In the evening, the two groups of people camped together. According to the characteristics of the grassland, Liu Yun assigned tasks to all the teams. The soldiers of that infantry regiment completely replaced the cavalry as coachmen. Because Liu Yun still wanted to concentrate cavalry for mobile combat.

Early the next morning, Li Jing sent reconnaissance detachments in several directions, all of them carrying radio stations.

Liu Yun and the others commanded the convoy to move on. It was almost noon when Li Jing sent back a telegram to the detachment sent out to say that a large group of cavalry had chased after him from behind.

Liu Yun and Li Jing immediately issued an order, and according to last night's arrangement, the convoy immediately approached a dirt slope and surrounded a circular position with horse-drawn carriages. This is the classic defensive position of Yaogang. The difference was that Liu Yun sent out two cavalry regiments and ran into the distance.

After setting up the position, everyone began to arrange the defense facilities again. The tripwires used by the potters were nailed all around. There are also buried everywhere around, anti-infantry**. There are also fire oil bombs for night lighting. There is also a one-foot-square trap.

Before the kiln gang people finished arranging the position, Li Jing's reconnaissance detachment had already galloped back. They reported that the cavalry of the brigade arrived afterwards. In fact, Liu Yun and Li Jing had already heard the sound of the horses' hooves of the cavalry "rumbling".

The solid mountain sent by Azig, with a large group of cavalry, pursued along the rut marks, and they found that the rut marks were becoming clearer and clearer. This Gushan knew that the convoy carrying grain was ahead. Their scouts suddenly returned to report that the convoy that had been found in front of the kiln had stopped and had set up camp in front.

This Gushan was a little confused, he brought people up to watch it in person, and when he saw it, he wanted to kill the person who had just reported. This is a camp, this is a defensive position waiting for him. However, this Gushan is still very confident in its numerical superiority. He knew that the opponent's strength must be inferior to his own, otherwise, they would not be waiting for him in a position to be beaten. However, he did not understand how these Han Chinese knew that they had caught up, and their position was obviously newly arranged.

Liu Yun, who was in the circular position of the kiln gang, was also watching this solid mountain with a telescope at this time, at this time Liu Yun didn't know who was coming, but he knew that he must be the biggest leader who led the troops to pursue. Liu Yun turned around and asked the artillery battalion commander: "Can you cover those who are watching our position?" ”

"No problem, if we can't hit this far, we don't have to mess around. What do you do now? "The commander of the artillery battalion is also bullish.

"Do it now!" Liu Yun gave the order.

The battalion commander saluted and left. After a while, I heard a few cannon sounds from the artillery position behind, and a row of shells flew towards the solid hill where they were observing the position of the Yaogang people.

This Gushan and his generals were observing the position of the kiln gang people, and suddenly heard the sound of "squeak, squeak, squeak" from the kiln gang position, this Gushan had heard this sound in naturalization, and knew that the shells were flying over, and it was too late for them to run. His own soldiers also knew that it was not good, and the brave and loyal soldiers immediately lay on this solid mountain, and after a "booming" explosion, this solid mountain was only slightly injured, but several of his personal soldiers were killed by the explosion. Several of the generals who observed the position with him were also killed and wounded.

This Gushan, trying to calm himself down, he knew that this group of Han people was not easy to deal with, they not only set up a good position, but also equipped with artillery, this is the kind of artillery they suffered a great loss in naturalization.

He knew that he could not hesitate, and only by taking advantage of the rapid impact of the cavalry and rushing forward like a mountain at once could he win.

Ignoring the pain on his body, this Gushan summoned the officers of the Manchu and Mongolian armies to a meeting and arranged the mission. In fact, the order is very simple, that is, to attack from one direction, divided into two echelons, the front echelon of 5,000 people is the first group, charge together, the rear of 5,000 people, follow the front group, follow the attack, no matter how many people die in front, the attack is not allowed to be interrupted. As soon as the offensive was interrupted, where it was interrupted, the officer who led the team there was killed.

The command is simple, but it's actually very practical. They don't have any other tricks to play with.

The more than 10,000 cavalrymen, who put down all the things that had nothing to do with the attack, began to ride their horses and rush towards the position of the Yaogang people after the formation was ready. At this time, Liu Yun had already discovered that the attacker wanted to concentrate his forces to attack a little, so that the defenders' forces defending elsewhere could not play a role. and did not dare to concentrate all his forces on the defensive.

After the speed of the attackers' horses rushed up, the mortars of the kiln were the first to speak. The cavalry who rushed into the barrage led the men and horses, and the explosions flew in all directions, and the cavalry that rushed through the barrage soon ushered in the fire of heavy machine guns. More than a dozen heavy machine guns knocked most of the cavalry who rushed through the barrage off their horses, and when the cavalry that was lucky enough to break through the heavy machine gun blockade rushed into the position of the kiln gang, they immediately fell on their backs. The tripwires of the kiln workers are specially made, and the steel wires are painted grass green. The cavalry and horses could not see at all. The cavalrymen who fell to the ground were right in front of the muzzles of the kiln men's rifles, and they all became live targets for the infantry.

The barrage quickly swallowed up the cavalry that rushed in like a devil. In the back, he commanded the continuous attack of this solid mountain, and his heart began to pinch up, this solid mountain has participated in too many battles, whether it is Han or Mongolian, he has fought many bloody battles. But it is so easy for no one to die, and now as long as they rush up, they will be sent to death, not only can this solid mountain see it, but also the officers and soldiers who are waiting in line to attack in the back can also see it, and they know that now they are not queuing up to attack, but queuing up to die.

Slowly, Gushan found that the attacking team was not so closely following. But Gushan knew that if he stopped now, the people who died in front of him would die in vain. I don't know what to do in the future, so I must attack resolutely. Gushan brandished his waist knife, urging the soldiers to attack. However, the echelons in front of them all rushed up, but in front of the kiln position, piled up into a wall of flesh composed of horses and soldiers' corpses. They didn't have much chance to rush into the Kiln Gang people's position. The opponent's firearms were simply too impressive, and the fire-breathing weapon was like a harvester of horse-human flesh. Gushan really didn't dare to attack like this again, and the attack of the second echelon was stopped by Gushan.

At this time, someone came to Gushan's side and said, "If we attack in several directions, the density of their weapons will not be so high. Maybe we still have a chance. Gushan couldn't think of any other way. "The task was reassigned, and this time Gushan arranged a four-way simultaneous attack. There are 1,000 cavalry on each road, and his requirement is to attack on four sides at the same time, and he will not be able to win.

Liu Yun also knew that this was the last time the opponent attacked, but when the opponent began to attack, Liu Yun did not let the artillery fire. Gushan felt strange, why didn't the Han people fire a cannon? Could it be that it is not suitable for attacking from all sides? Didn't wait for him to think about it. Liu Yun had already put them into the ambush circle of the anti-infantry **. Liu Yun ordered: "Detonate." ”

All the ***, was pressed down. "Knock knock" one by one the anti-infantry ** was blown up, and then they exploded on the heads of the attacking cavalry. Powerful anti-infantry**, throwing thousands of prefabricated fragments on the heads of the attacking cavalry. Even the horses and cavalry blew up on the ground one by one. The cavalry, which had not been blown up, continued to rush forward, either tripped by the stumbling rope or knocked down by the rifles and heavy machine guns of the kiln soldiers. Gushan, who was in the back, couldn't believe his eyes. Seeing more than 10,000 strong cavalry, in less than an afternoon, there were more than 1,000 people left around him, which he brought from Liaodong to the elite with white flags. But what if he hasn't had time to think about meeting him? The sound of horses' hooves of a brigade of cavalry was heard from behind. They looked back and saw that a large number of Han Chinese cavalry had surrounded them.

Gushan understood that he had already been in the calculations of others, and today's battle was very well prepared. The battle was fought like a smooth stream, and he was not wronged in the hands of such a person, and both tactics and weapons were too far behind others.

Gushan understands that he has to die like a man as much as possible today is the best ending.
