Chapter 418: Never Spare the Enemy's Infantry

The infantry in the Tatar army consisted mainly of the Han Chinese in the north, and a very small number of them were Semu.

The Semu were generally lower-rank officers, and they obeyed only the orders of the Tatars.

However, the officers did not expect the war to be like this, very different from what they could perceive.

The artillery fire has already exceeded their expectations, and this kind of shooting style of falling and exploding from the sky is simply unreasonable!

The majesty of the Tatars was largely ineffective under the threat of extreme terror------ and the entire mixed military and civilian groups were in disarray------ but most of them fled to the left and right.

The commander of the Tatar army was in flames, and he gave the order for the infantry to regroup, but fortunately the pirates did not rush out of the barracks------

The command flag of the Tatar army waved, but it had no effect, and no one seemed to pay attention to the orders given!

When the commander of the Tatar army was about to order the cavalry to go and suppress and organize, all the cavalry saw dozens of rockets rising from the camp of the begging pirates!

“#@¥%!”

Without waiting for the order of the commander of the Tatar army, all the cavalry shouted and retreated for shelter.

As the cavalry retreated, they were even more panicked, and before the rockets fell, the first thing that fell from the sky was a cannonball that could explode!

No one saw the opposing positions firing artillery------

“*&……%¥——”

The cavalry who had been blown off their horses let out a long wail------ mortar shells were not as lethal as the bombs of the air force, and they could not directly tear people apart, but they could also cause serious injuries.

The rocket landed immediately after------ since the Tatar cavalry was ready, it was not too lethal, but it was enough to frighten the horses.

The rockets of the begging pirates are far more terrifying than they have seen!

But then they saw the second batch of rockets rise into the sky!!

The commander of the Tatar army narrowly escaped these two blows, he was so disheartened that he had no intention of fighting, and rushed towards the fortified city with the rest of his cavalry------ there was no way to fight such a battle------

Division Commander Hua Yin watched the enemy escape, leaving only a few dead bodies------ at this time to release light cavalry, only a row of horse pistols to shoot, the other side will definitely suffer greater casualties.

However, all his light cavalry were sent out to support the Taomu division commander.

Forget it, let them go for now------

Don't let those infantrymen go!

The trumpets of the charge sounded in the formation, and the Imperial army began to attack.

Division Commander Hua Yin ordered six battalions and two four-wheeled chariot companies to be dispatched at a time to exterminate the enemy's infantry------ ignoring the civilians and letting them move!

The fighters of the six battalions quickly began to move, and two companies of four-wheeled tanks immediately drove out------ which would be a race of running battles.

Division Commander Hua Yin once again lamented that his light cavalry team was not around.

On such a field battlefield, the soldiers, under the command of the officer, immediately turned into squads to fight------ and the battlefield soon resounded with the sound of crisp gunfire, and occasionally the sound of a hand-cranked Gatling.

Commander Hua Yin looked at the message from the hot air balloon, and the Tatar cavalry had run out of their sight: this was a complete escape.

Well, the Tatar cavalry was defeated, they could flee------ but their infantry could not be spared------ without such accomplices, the Tatars would weaken day by day!

At this time, good news came from the rear, and the light cavalry cooperated with the ironclad chariot that came to support, and in addition to not finding the body of the main officer, they completely wiped out a complete Red Horse Exploration Army with 3,000 horsemen!

A total of more than 800 horses, more than 200 tons of cold weapons, and more than 500 muskets were captured.

There are also more than a thousand dead horses that are whole and edible!

Division Commander Hua Yin smiled when he saw this, the good news ------ dead horses were mentioned, which showed that the fighters had an excellent mentality.

But if you look at it any more, you can't laugh: there are more than 300 light cavalry killed and seriously wounded!

That's the ratio of 1:10!

Division Commander Hua Yin knocked on the report and asked, "Ironclad chariote?" What is the difference with our chariot, also a four-wheeled carriage draped in iron sheets? ”

The signal corpsmen proudly replied at the time:

"Report to Master Hua! The ironclad chariot is powered by a large flywheel diesel engine, which is full of power, far more dexterous and endurance than a four-wheeled chariot!

It was they who drove the Tatar robbers off their horses and had to flee to the mountains for shelter!! ”

Commander Hua Yin was overjoyed to hear this------ he once again looked at the powered hot air balloons in the distance, they were still slowly fluttering in the breeze.

That diesel engine can drive a balloon, and of course it can also drive an ironclad chariot!

Division Commander Hua Yin immediately gave an order: "Hurry, hurry, let them hurry up and assist the infantry to kill!" ”

The signal corps received the order and immediately flew on his horse and hurried to the rear.

The scouts of the Imperial Air Force saw in the air that the soldiers in green uniforms were eating away at the black flow of people one by one.

The soldiers were skillfully coordinated, and by no means developed into a melee, and the enemy's infantry was either killed or knelt together in surrender.

The scouts of the Imperial Air Force were also responsible for directing the fighters on the ground to distant targets.

Pursue boldly, the enemy can't outrun the Imperial Army, which has been recuperating!

The addition of the four-wheeled chariot helped the army even more------ although the ground on the battlefield was undulating and the four-wheeled chariot could not exert its full power, but its momentum was enough to scare the enemy's infantry.

The infantry of the Tatar army was mainly runaway, and few resisted------ knowing that their Tatar masters had long since run away.

Such a battle cannot be rushed, and a little nibble is the best way.

Civilians dressed in motley clothes ran everywhere, and some sat in heaps and waited honestly for the victors to deal with them.

Maybe they just can't run.

When the ironclad chariot convoy appeared in front of Division Commander Hua Yin, he didn't bother to take a good look at it, and immediately ordered them to be put into the battlefield!

At the same time, the entire barracks were thrown in, except for the necessary remaining personnel------ the enemy's infantry were trophies, and so were the scattered civilians------ otherwise, I don't know when they would become accomplices of the Tatar robbers!

Division Commander Hua Yin watched with great joy as the ironclad chariots rampaged across the battlefield, they were indeed far more dexterous than the four-wheeled chariots!

He had just caught up from the battlefield in the rear, and he didn't even look tired------ of course he didn't know that the soldiers on the ironclad chariot had already jumped off------ professionals all understood, but if it was possible, don't sit on it, because in such road conditions, it may be possible to turn people's internal organs upside down!

Later, the fighters on the battlefield in the rear also rushed back.

They had already determined that the rear was completely safe, and it was enough to leave the necessary sentries to keep a close watch.

In this way, this closing battle was busy until the evening.

When they began to count the spoils, Master Hua and Master Tao could only smile wryly at each other.
