Although September is early autumn, the heat has not yet dissipated, and most of the dignitaries and dignitaries of the Qing Dynasty are still eating watermelon, dissipating the last summer heat, and the gluttonous Guoxinga is no exception. However, the place where he ate watermelon was relatively special, neither in the courtyard of his house, nor in the left and right of his subordinates, but lying on the grass not far from the Hexi Military Station of the coalition army, nibbling in small bites.

Although Guo Xing'a was determined to win, for some unspeakable considerations, the manpower of a battalion used by Guo Xing'a in this sneak attack was all from the light cavalry regiment. These elite horse bandits are no worse than the reconnaissance battalion in terms of stealth, and night combat and sneak attacks are also their specialty. After once again announcing that Xiande's fierce opposition was invalid, Guo Xing'a personally took these former horse bandits to change their military uniforms and sneaked outside Hexi Wu Town. Guo Xinga did not rush to attack, but observed the defensive posts of the coalition army for a whole day, until he thought that he had figured out the rules of the coalition army, and then ordered the troops to start moving closer to Hexi.

Although the horse bandits mainly robbed, they did not do much to tie up meat tickets, and they had a deep understanding of those who quietly entered the village to shoot. They are also familiar with this kind of thing, although they can't shoot, but darts and arrows are also the strong point of the horse bandits. By the time Guo Xing'a had finished nibbling half of the watermelon, the horse bandits had already destroyed more than a dozen sentry posts and broke into the wall of Hexiwu.

"Ding stick, take one and take it down, take down the gate for me, okay?" Guo Xing'a picked up half a piece of watermelon again, looked around, and kicked the stick next to him.

"If you can fight down, let the gun be kept, and if you don't let the shot, you have to make up another company!" Ding Stick carefully observed the situation and said seriously.

"Go ahead! Tell the people of the three to prepare! We're getting started! Guo Xinga nodded, and Duo San brought a battalion outside, ready to pursue the remnants of the coalition army's defeated retreat.

"You first echelon, don't bring guns for the time being, and I'll bring them to you when it's stable!" Since the horse bandits were cleaned up by Guo Xing'a, they seem to be suffering from a firearms addiction and are studying guns every day. However, because of the lack of equipment, the hussar regiment only had guns during training, and there were no guns in actual combat and on the march, which suffocated these guys. Guo Xing'a was worried that he would shoot them now, and these big brothers couldn't control themselves, and when they entered the town, they banged and exposed their targets prematurely.

"Good!" Ding Stick didn't say much, called his subordinates, and ran to the town with his waist bent.

Guo Xing'a is a good talker, Ding Stick has long been clear, and after joining the official army, he was not discriminated against, but saw the hope of promotion. One of the company commanders of their light cavalry regiment was thrown from the long hairy side, and this kind of person can be promoted to become rich, and the Ding stick gang of horse bandits is even more capable. Therefore, Ding Stick and the others are extremely serious in their work, and they also have a very strong desire to perform, even if they can't be promoted if they have a bad foundation, this bounty is all the same.

"Will there be an Armstrong cannon? Do you want to imitate it? It's so tangled! Watching Ding Stick lead people into the town, Guo Xing'a lay on the grass and daydreamed happily, he had not lost this kind of sneak attack battle. The Armstrong cannon is currently the most advanced artillery in the world, and if Guo Xinga can imitate a batch and replace all the front-loading guns in his hand, his combat power will definitely be able to rise a lot. The problem is that there is not enough time, the Armstrong cannon is not technically difficult for Goxinga, if it is not too tight in time and insufficient capital, Goxinga can now make World War II artillery such as the 92-step gun. It's the same with the Armstrong cannon, it's okay to imitate, how long does the problem take! If it is only built after the battle is over, Guo Xing'a might as well directly engage in the ninety-two rifle cannon! It's economical and convenient, but it's also more practical.

Before Guoxing's lust was over, the town of Hexiwu resounded with the sound of gunfire and horses' hooves, and Ding Stick and the people he brought in ran back like rabbits being chased by dogs.

"There is an ambush! Retreat, adults! Ding Stick ran and jumped over and over again, and shouted to Guoxing'a to warn.

"I'll go!" Guo Xing's jaw was about to fall to the ground. There will definitely be no traitors on his side, first, he has always done a good job of secrecy, and second, even if there are traitors, it is estimated that he will not be able to find the temple gate of the British and French forces, where to betray himself. But there will be an ambush in Hexiwu, which is really a ghost.

"Cloth*! Remove! "Ignoring the sound of gunfire and just listening to the sound of horses' hooves, the strength of the coalition army is not less than 500 people, and Guoxinga is not like fighting hard with the coalition army. Let the soldiers arrange a trap with * on the retreat route, and Guo Xing ran away without looking back.

"I'm Nima!" Guo Xing'a just ran a few steps and still hasn't found the horse! A cavalry of no less than 1,000 men had already run in the direction of Goxing'a, bypassing Hexiwu.

"Protect your lordship!" Fuquan and several soldiers of the guard platoon lowered Guo Xing'a's head and dragged Guo Xing'a away.

Everyone is stupid, Guo Xing'a and others can be said to have completely fallen into the pit, and it is still a big pit. It is not clear how many men and horses are ambushed in the town, but there are thousands of cavalry outside at the same time, and if they are rushed in front of them, it will be too late. Once the ranks are dispersed by these cavalry, the coalition forces in the town will chase them out and attack them inside and outside, and Goxing Adu may be captured alive.

"Second company, third company, skirmish line to meet the enemy, free shooting! Cover the retreat of the adults! Hillab's eyes were red, and he couldn't care about the losses of his subordinates, so he directly ordered his subordinates to delay the enemy in place and buy time for Goxinga's retreat. His first battalion of light cavalry had a total of three companies, and it was not clear how much the first company that followed Ding Stick into the town would be able to come back, and at the moment he was not ready to ask for Xu Dingyi's second company and Li Qiao's third company. After all, his battalion has been exhausted, and it is better than Guo Xing'a's accident, as long as Guo Xing'a is still in the army and money, if Guo Xing'a is finished, it will be all over.

"Bang bang bang bang...... more than 400 people lying on their stomachs in the grass were also in a state of confusion, and everyone wanted to run. But after all, they were horse bandits, and they knew that running like this was no different from committing suicide, and even if they wanted to run, they had to disperse the pursuing cavalry. Moreover, the military law here in Guoxinga is strict, and the treatment for those who died in the war is good, and there are family members who will be greatly compensated, and those who have no family members will also adopt a righteous son for you to pass on the ancestry. But if you run away, you will die if you are caught, and even if you are not caught, you will be implicated in your family, or you will be wanted by the whole country. Therefore, everyone basically cut off the back road, and they could only shoot indiscriminately at the cavalry rushing with desperate thoughts.

"There's an ambush in the grass!" The cavalry running over on the opposite side was actually Chinese, shouting loudly in Chinese, and they didn't look like they were coming to attack Guo Xing'a and the others, but also like a flock of frightened birds. After being shot indiscriminately, he did not return fire or send anyone to contact him, but turned his horse's head and ran down to the east again.

"What are these birdmen doing?" Goxinga looked back as he ran.

"My lord, let's go!" Fuquan pressed Guo Xing's head down again, even if these cavalry were not in danger, there would be a coalition army chased out of the town behind them! Goxinga must run.

As soon as the cavalry of the brigade ran over, they were followed by another group of four or five hundred cavalry, which only stopped slightly, and then followed the previous thousand or so cavalry. Ding Stick also fled back with his people, and he chased after more than 400 cavalry and more than 300 infantry, and Helab provided him with a burst of fire cover, and took advantage of the opportunity for the other party to regroup, and ran away with most of the troops.

He retreated to the bolted horse three miles away, got on his horse and began to run, to catch up with Goxinga, who had run a few miles ahead and a few miles away. Xilabu Xiading, Xu Dingyi, Li Qiao and others all thought that it would be safe to get on their horses, but they only threw off the infantry chased out of the town, and the more than 400 cavalry still chased after them, and the distance was getting closer and closer.

"Damn it, these calves are running so fast!" Li Qiao knew the horses very well, and in the chaotic sound of hooves, he could also hear that the mounts of the coalition army were much faster than his own.

The horse bandits were ready to bleed their horses, and they barely ran ten miles before they could catch up, but something happened that made Shirab extremely disgusting. Goxinga and dozens of horsemen of the guard platoon did not run far, but waited for them on the high ground in front.

"Can't shake it off, turn, array!" Unless he would rather run to the death of the war horse, the first battalion of light cavalry really can't get rid of the pursuers, and Shirab could have thought of going around in circles, but now he can't, Guo Xing's big burden makes him have to turn back and fight hard. Now there is still a chance to turn around and line up, if you run for a while, I'm afraid it's too close to even turn around.

The first battalion of light cavalry divided into two sides, circled in a semicircle, and then gathered together again and formed a phalanx. When they were charging, they didn't have the habit of using guns, especially this time they were preparing to fight a tough battle, so they brought more Schneider, which was not suitable for use in the charge. The former bandits put their rifles on their backs and picked up the familiar lances and sabers.

The pursuing coalition forces also slowed down, reorganized their formations, and prepared to have a hedge with the first battalion. But just when the two sides were ready to start, a group of cavalry using * suddenly appeared, gave the coalition forces a hard blow from behind, and then quickly rushed through the coalition positions and joined the first battalion.

"Duosan, it's a fucking time for you to come!" Shirab added his hand to the amount.

"There's a group of Mongolian horses out there, and they're all fucking messed up! I'm going to get it back! Duosan was also panting, and he was not easy.

"The second battalion of the three is the main attack, and the first battalion of Helab, your battalion outflanked the two wings and killed them!" There are more people in his own right, and Guo Xing's courage is stronger again, and he is back on the front line.

"Huh!" Guo Xing's face was very bad, and the two of them didn't say a word wisely. Since Zuo led the army, Guo Xing'a has never been so embarrassed even if he was blocked by Li Xiucheng. This time it wasn't the soldiers who had an accident, and the Goxing A Benzun was turned into a rabbit.

Before the arrangement of troops on both sides was over, the more than 1,000 cavalry that had just flashed appeared again, and rushed between the two armies at once. The more than 500 horsemen who had been chasing them behind them also followed them like shadows. The two sides spun around in the field, and finally crashed into the coalition cavalry phalanx that had just been beaten by the multi-three-one stick.

"It's a bit chaotic! Remove! Guo Xing'a can't understand it, anyway, now the three families are fighting, and he has nothing to do, so if he doesn't leave at this time, he will wait for when. These thousand cavalry have completely lost their souls, unless they are killed together, otherwise Guo Xing'a will definitely be dragged down by them. One thousand against one thousand, it is still possible for Guo Xing'a to win these two teams of cavalry, but with this thousand gangs, Guo Xing'a will definitely die, so it is better to run away as soon as possible. And Guo Xing's dispatch of troops this time can't be recognized, of course, he can't make trouble for himself, so he can only let these big brothers ask for more blessings.

"Hexi Wu, you wait for Lao Tzu!" Guo Xing'a took his two battalions and took advantage of the chaos to run quietly, but Guo Xing'a ran and was ruthless to Hexi.
