Chapter 364: Ambush Battle

Mayor Auro's team was ambushed by the men led by Yang Xiaoshan.

He sees the Chinese as sheep, and Yang Xiaoshan sees his team in the same way. Yang Xiaoshan, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, just by observing the walking posture of this group of Peruvian soldiers, he knows that they lack exercise and are unguarded.

So he set up an ambush circle by a small river at the bottom of the mountain, where the road was lined with dense trees and easy to hide. More importantly, the terrain on both sides is relatively high, and it is a small hill that is not too big or small, which is very conducive to condescending ambush warfare.

"Brothers, wave the banner and aim the bow and arrow in your hand and shoot again." Yang Xiaoshan arranged the Fuhu Formation, which was often used by the Taiping Army.

The essence of this formation is to take the enemy by surprise, and suddenly the flags are overwhelming, the lineup is majestic, and the momentum is magnificent, giving the enemy a great visual impact and playing a psychological war function of deterring the enemy.

The Peruvian army was really in a mess, and under the fire of bows and arrows, they even ignored their heads and tails, and ran around with their heads in their hands.

It's a pity that the Taiping Army has just been established, and the arrows prepared are not enough, and the team is not full of old brothers of the Taiping Army.

Even so, this wave of the Taiping army's offensive also dealt a huge blow to the Peruvian army, many people fell to the ground with arrows, and the blood made the flowing water of the small river instantly turn red.

Mayor Oro's mount was also shot, and the brown horses were obviously in great pain, and their front hooves flew into the air, knocking the chubby Mayor Oro off their horses.

Di Mari, who was next to him, saw that it was not good, jumped the horse's head and fled immediately.

Although Oro was very panicked after falling off the horse, in front of everyone, he couldn't pull this face and shouted to retreat. I usually brag about how brave I used to be, but if I run away now, I won't be laughed to death in the future.

"Don't panic, everyone, calm down, whoever runs back will be dealt with by military law!" Mayor Oro forced his composure and said loudly.

Fortunately, the Taiping army has a limited number of arrows, otherwise it would be useless to let Oro shout. After a while, the arrows of the Taiping army were obviously much thinner, and the Peruvian army barely stabilized the formation, and they all lay on the ground looking for cover, looking very embarrassed.

Yang Xiaoshan secretly sighed a pity, after all, he had just formed an army, and there were not so many logistics supplies, and it was already the result of everyone's hard work to be able to make so many arrows in a short time.

"Big stick, you take people up to rush and practice your courage!" Yang Xiaoshan ordered Wang Dabang to take the lead. This opportunity is rare, the opponent's strength is very weak, and the recruits will only grow when they see blood when they go to the battlefield, and this is a rare opportunity to train them.

"Me?" Wang Dabang looked a little reluctant, he is a strong person in the middle, and he usually pretends to be okay in front of people, but when he really arrives on the battlefield, he is a little vain.

"Yes, it's you, what are you waiting for? Hurry up, catch the fighters! Seeing his hesitant appearance, Yang Xiaoshan was a little angry, and his tone hardened.

Seeing Yang Xiaoshan's angry appearance, Wang Dabang stiffened his head and turned around and shouted, "Brothers, rush." ”

As soon as the connoisseur made a move, he knew if there was one, and Wang Dabang just rushed down. Yang Xiaoshan regretted it, a rookie is a rookie, and Wang Dabang's charge is full of loopholes in his eyes.

His men stood too densely and charged very hesitantly. This is very easy to be countered by the enemy's weak points.

Fortunately, the Peruvian army is really weak, and that's it, it was also rushed out of the way by Wang Dabang. On the periphery is the police force of the mayor of Oro, these people have only undergone a small amount of military training, let alone go into battle, and they are barely able to catch thieves in peacetime.

They saw the Taiping army brandishing the Taiping knife and holding the Taiping spear, rushing down the hill, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly ran back, only hating their father and mother for missing two legs.

When Wang Dabang saw that the Peruvian army was so indifferent, he was still a little forward-looking just now, and he suddenly became confident, and he didn't observe the battlefield, but just loudly urged his recruits to continue to rush forward in the back.

Yang Xiaoshan, who was standing on a high place, knew that it was broken, and Wang Dabang, an idiot, rushed headlong into the middle of the Peruvian army, and was surrounded unconsciously.

As Yang Xiaoshan expected, this mayor of Oro was not a person without ability, and when he saw the Taiping army attacking like this, he was overjoyed, and immediately commanded the Peruvian army, raising his musket and firing back.

Wang Dabang's men were surrounded by Peruvian firepower, and multiple firepower points were cross-fired, so that Wang Dabang's soldiers were dizzy and didn't know how to hide. Although the accuracy of the Peruvian muskets was limited, the Taiping army was too dense to stand and several brothers fell.

A recruit is a recruit, and as soon as he saw someone fall to the ground, the others immediately panicked, retreated and trampled on themselves.

Yang Xiaoshan was distressed when he saw such a tragic situation, the Taiping Army had fewer people, and if they lost one, they would lose one.

"Damn the king's stick, it's so bad!" No matter how good Yang Xiaoshan's temper is, he can't help but scold his mother.

"King Dong, I'll pick it up." Bao Chao volunteered to stand up.

"Okay, you go to the aid and save Wang Dabang's people." Yang Xiaoshan nodded, if it goes on like this, the price of training recruits will be too great.

Bao Chao's people are obviously different. He and Feng Zicai acted separately on the left and on the right. Two detachments of men rushed into the positions of the Peruvian army, moving forward and backward, looking for the enemy's weak points. As soon as the Peruvian army they faced wanted to raise their guns, they were cut down by Bao Chao's men, with neat movements, fast and accurate, without a trace of superfluity.

Bao Chao was so killed, I saw him roar, like a thunderbolt, his hand rose and fell, I don't know how many Peruvian soldiers' heads were cut off by him.

Veterans are veterans, and they cooperate very well with each other, and only more than 300 people divided and surrounded the Peruvian army, cutting off the connection between them.

As soon as the situation reversed, Wang Dabang's recruits regained the courage they had just now, and the recruits were like this, they couldn't fight against the wind, and it still had some effect if they fell into the well. With Bao Chao's people, the Taiping army seized the initiative on the battlefield, and it was already a matter of time before the Peruvian army was taken.

"Damn it, give it to me! Don't run! "Mayor Oro saw that his subordinates were in a crumbling army, and he was furious, seeing that the Chinese were about to die just now, and in the blink of an eye, he was beaten back like this, and such a gap was really difficult for him to accept.

Bao Chao had long paid attention to the chubby old man, knowing that he was the head of the Peruvian army.

The thief captured the king first, Bao Chao quietly turned back, aimed at Oro, and threw out the Taiping knife in his hand.

The knife was thrown extremely fast and with great momentum. Before Mayor Oro could react, he was stabbed through, and his body flew several meters away. The Peruvian army next to him was stunned, and when they saw that the mayor of Oro was killed, they fled back without looking back.

"Alright, you don't have to." Yang Xiaoshan, who was watching the battle, gestured to Li Shixian's musket team. For the sake of insurance, once Bao Chao can't open the situation, he is ready to let Li Shixian lead the old brothers of the Taiping Army to carry muskets into battle. (All the muskets seized in the mine were handed over to Yang Xiaoshan's old brothers in the Taiping Army.) )
