Chapter 396: The Battle of Baotou
()
In the second half of the night when Baotou had just been arranged, the Tsarist army arrived outside Baotou. ♀ (Debut)--
Brigade commander Cheknov is a battle-hardened general, who once participated in the Sino-Russian War in Ili that year, and has rich experience, although it is convenient to sneak attack and attack the city at night, but now look at the torches shining on Baotou City like daylight, you know that Baotou City has received the news, and it seems that it has been prepared.
Cherknov said: "Okay, the army is marching for a day, and I'm a little tired, tomorrow we will be attacking the city, and Hohhot will be taken by us within a day, and this small Baotou is not a problem!" ”
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Cheknov launched an attack on Baotou City and launched a fierce charge in the eastern city.
On the top of Baotou City, Meng Qingyou dragged Minshan to the top of the city, saying that he wanted Minshan and others to watch a good show, and a part of the commanders were invited to the top of the city 'gate' of the East City.
The soldiers under Meng Qingyou gloated and looked at the Cossack cavalry under the city, and just when the cavalry team rushed to about two miles from the city gate, an incredible scene appeared, and explosions sounded one after another on the ground where the Cossack cavalry charged, and clouds of gunpowder smoke rose into the air.
The mines planted by Meng Qingyou the day before began to exert their power, and the mines had only been used on a large scale in North Korea's Zinanshan before, and there were very few combat examples, so they did not attract much attention from various countries, and the cavalry of Tsarist Russia did not know that the Qing army had prepared such a big killing weapon!
The cavalry in front of the horse was blown up on his back, the power of these mines is not particularly large, but it is enough to completely blow up the horse's legs', the cavalry on the horse rolled off the horse, and before he had time to stand up, he was trampled into the 'meat' mud by the cavalry who charged from behind, and the cavalry behind couldn't stop the galloping horses in a hurry, and stepped on it again without hesitation, the minefield here was only less than a thousand due to the limited number of mines, but the lethality brought to the Russian cavalry was too great, in the blink of an eye, Hundreds of cavalry were all lost on this minefield, and the horses that were not completely dead were still 'twitching' on the ground, and as for the cavalry, there was hardly a single lightly wounded, either one of them returned to the west, or they were seriously injured, it was too tragic. ♀
Finally, the cavalry of Tsarist Russia reined in the offensive and retreated like a tide.
Minshan and the others in the city swallowed a mouthful of spit with difficulty, and looked at the battlefield in front of them in horror, this is terrifying, in just a few minutes, Tsarist Russia has lost hundreds of horses, this is simply a catastrophic 'sex' blow!
At this time, the corners of Meng Qingyou's mouth set off an arc of a smile, so cruel! He could still laugh!
Outside the city, Chekknov's eyes turned red in an instant, damn it! This is hundreds of Cossack cavalry 'elite', and they died completely outside Baotou before they even fired, where did this group of Qing troops get this weapon? If there is such a weapon in Hohhot, then we will not live directly!
But after all, Cheknov is a veteran who is really good at, and he understands that the current situation must not be impatient, what should he do? Charge? No, no one knows how many bombs the other side has planted in front of them. ♀ If there is any, then the charge is directly sent to death!
It's not even better to wait, but I can't stay in Baotou for long, and I have to rush to Beijing City with the army to meet the commander.
Cheknov shouted: "Come on, pull our artillery up, aim it at the open space in front of us, bombard me, if there are still bombs here, our shells will explode, and these bombs will be destroyed directly!" Clear a path for us.
In the blink of an eye, the artillery battalion behind pushed up more than a dozen 'guns', these are not heavy artillery, just light infantry guns, which can be dragged by war horses and move forward quickly.
As soon as Cherknov gave an order, the Russian artillery began to exert its might, aiming at the battlefield in front of it is an artillery bombardment, and the entire eastern part of Baotou City rose up with patches of smoke and dust, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled.
Seeing that the imaginary bomb did not appear, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, it seems that this is a bomb hastily laid out by the Qing army here, and now it is time for us to attack.
The war knife in Cheknov's hand waved forward and shouted: "Warriors, charge me!" Take Baotou City, and the gold and silver beauties in it are all yours! “
The Cossack cavalry began to rush frantically towards the 'gate' of the eastern city of Baotou.
Meng Qingyou looked coldly, seeing that the Cossack cavalry had already charged, Meng Qingyou shouted: "Order, the artillery immediately carry out a covering attack, focusing on the artillery positions of the Russian army; Heavy machine guns are prepared, and all heavy machine guns are fired after the cavalry has entered the 'firing' range! ”
Meng Qingyou's judgment of the battlefield situation is extremely accurate, in the blue wolf, first followed Zhang Yi, and later as the detachment leader, and accepted Zhang Yihu's teaching, the combat style is very similar to Zhang Yihu, and the grasp of the changes in the battle situation far exceeds that of Minshan and others, and this timing is too well grasped.
The artillery of the Russian army has just concentrated on the forward positions and has begun to attack.
Meng Qingyou directly ordered to lock the 'shooting' of the cannon to hit Zhu Yuan, and carry out a direct attack on the artillery positions of the Russian army.
Dozens of shells exploded on the artillery positions one after another, and the gas 'waves' of the explosions swept the Russian artillery far away.
Cheknov yelled angrily: "'Bastard', give me a return shot, return fire!" Destroy all the cannons in the city for me! ”
The Russian artillery was busy for a while, and then engaged in the artillery battle, and the shells of the two sides exchanged and fought, and they were very happy.
At this time, the Russian cavalry had already rushed into the Qing army's 'firing' range, and more than 30 'Ting' heavy machine guns were placed on Baotou City, which were specially prepared for the Russian cavalry.
Meng Qingyou put more than half of all the heavy machine guns in Baotou City in Dongcheng, just to suppress the attack of the Russian cavalry with powerful heavy machine gun fire.
Thirty "strong" heavy machine guns are firing tongues, in Baotou City, strong "crossing" woven into a powerful firepower network, blocking the attack of the Russian army, the tactics of the Cossack cavalry have to be said to be very superb, these people completely hide their bodies on the horses, let the horses charge forward, nearly a thousand people and horses frantically impact Baotou City, constantly people fall from the horses, and there are constantly horses are 'shot' killed!
But the crazy Russian army is still on the offensive, and has completely charged under the city walls, and has begun to prepare to occupy the city 'gate' and directly attack the city. Minshan's face in the city was pale, and he trembled, and asked in surprise: "General Meng, look, you see, the Russian soldiers have rushed up, what should I do?" Meng Qingyou shouted: "What are you panicking about, they rushed over, but they are our target, can they break through the 'gate' of the city?" Give Lao Tzu, fight back hard! ”
