After two failed attacks, the Zheng army never attacked again, and the vanguard of the Qin army did not take the opportunity to counterattack, they were afraid of scaring the fish away.

Both sides were waiting for the arrival of the main forces, but it was the main forces of the Qin army that arrived first.

Zhou Ze, commander of the second regiment of the 1st Division, arrived smoothly with the rest of the troops.

After listening to the report of the vanguard and observing the position of the Zheng Jiajun at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Ze realized that the Zheng Jiajun was also waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

From the report just now, he had already made a preliminary assessment of the combat effectiveness of the Zheng Jiajun, so after a little thought, he ordered the mortar company to start setting up artillery positions near the hill on the right.

At the same time, a platoon of men and horses was sent to Wenzhou City to inform the local villagers, ordering them to be vigilant and temporarily close the city gates.

The rest of the men and horses built fortifications on the two hills and on the flanks, waiting for the arrival of the enemy's main force.

Zhou Ze didn't plan to fight a complete positional battle with Zheng Jiajun, his fighting style still liked to attack.

He believed in the words of His Royal Highness the Regent: Offense is the best defense.

Therefore, Zhou Ze only put one battalion and one artillery company in the front, and the remaining two battalions, one company was drawn out as a reserve, and the rest of the troops were used as outflanking troops to ambush the enemy's flank from the dense forests on both sides of the mountain.

Zhou Ze's purpose is very simple, that is, to eat all the enemies today.

Teachers are no match for us, let alone students.

In all the new armies of the Qin army, the commanders of units above the platoon level were equipped with command knives, binoculars, and compasses.

With the help of the compass, the Qin army basically did not take any unjust road in the dense forest, and successfully reached the designated ambush location.

After receiving the news from the communication corps that the units were in place, the rest of the Qin army was to wait for the rabbit.

Before noon, the main force of the Zheng family's army, which was out of breath and tired, finally arrived.

Seeing the black-faced major general and the embarrassed guards, everyone else also realized that the major general had suffered a defeat, and it was estimated that it was still very miserable, so they all kept their complaints in their mouths.

And looking at the tragic situation of the guards who had lost more than half of them, the others also became uneasy in their hearts.

Looking at the tired main force, although Zheng Sen had the intention to immediately let them go into the attack, he was ashamed, but in the end, after thinking about it, he still ordered to attack after resting for half an hour.

Zheng Sen's 3,000-strong troops, although nominally also firearms, were basically all musketeers, and were not equipped with artillery at all.

And in terms of training, including tactical movements, battlefield skills, tactical command, etc., the British also cut corners, just taught them a general thing, and a lot of the essence was left in one hand.

Therefore, in essence, Zheng Jiajun's overall level is still in a stage of semi-new and not old, and it is not half a star worse than Qin Jun.

Even the British themselves, many of the so-called essences are also vulgar in Jiang Chuan's eyes.

After all, Jiang Chuan's time was the era of the information explosion, and even ordinary people who had not actually fought a war could learn a lot about the combat examples and basic tactics of modern warfare through various channels, which was beyond the reach of the British, who were still in the initial stage of firearms warfare.

Jiang Chuan taught the new army after processing and sorting out the information he learned, although many aspects were full of loopholes and various deficiencies in the eyes of later generations, but it was enough to deal with the British.

Half an hour later, the relieved Zheng Jiajun began to assemble under Zheng Sen's urging and prepared to attack.

Zheng Sen's tactic this time was to divide the men and horses into four parts, one part to monitor the Qin army on the left hill, and the remaining three parts to take turns to attack the right hill.

As long as they occupy the right hill, they can condescendingly suppress the Qin army on the left hill, and then the men and horses monitoring them can take the opportunity to capture the left hill.

However, in order to ensure the insurance period, Zheng Sen still left about 500 people as a reserve team in case of accidents.

The Zheng family's battlefield communication method is still ancient, first in a whining horn sound, the Zheng family's army began to assemble, under the leadership of their respective commanders, ready to attack.

After the sound of the horn ended, the rapid and passionate drums sounded, and the first round of 500 people attacked the cave on the right in a chaotic manner.

On the position on the hill on the right, two infantry companies of the Qin army were deployed. Behind the side of the position were the positions of the artillery battery.

The regiment commander Zhou Ze looked at the Zheng Jiajun who was rushing up in a chaotic manner, and instructed the battalion commander next to him: "Listen to my orders in a while and then fire, let the brothers shoot freely, and seize the opportunity to practice marksmanship." Hitting a moving target is completely different from hitting a fixed target. ”

After the commander of the first battalion passed on the words of the regiment commander, the soldiers of the second regiment all looked eager to try and began to compete with each other, and many began to brag that they would kill several enemies.

The atmosphere is relaxed and cheerful, as if you are having a risk-free shooting competition.

"Regiment leader, you have to give us some opportunities to practice, you can't kill all the good things and let them take advantage of them." Li Dazhu, the commander of the artillery company, also came over to join in the fun.

Zhou Ze kicked him in the ass and scolded with a smile: "What are you kid making a fuss about, there is a time when you are firing." I will wait for my order for you to fire the cannon again, and if you scare the enemy away, I will use you as a target. ”

has been in the army for a long time, and Zhou Ze, who was born as a scholar, is also full of foul language when he talks to his subordinates.

However, in front of his boss, he is still the Confucian general who has a rigorous style and is good at thinking and summarizing.

Li Dazhu, who was rewarded by the regiment commander, returned to the company's position with a satisfied smile, and did not know what to say, which caused the artillerymen to also cheer in a low voice.

At this time, the Zheng Jiajun, who was attacking upwards, did not know the news of the arrival of the main force of the Qin army, and thought that there were still only about a hundred or so people, so although they were careful, they didn't seem to be too worried.

Two hundred and fifty meters, there was no movement on the top of the mountain.

Two hundred meters, still no movement.

One hundred and fifty meters, there was still no movement.

This made Zheng Jiajun even more relaxed, it seems that there are really not many enemies, and there are really not many bullets as the major general said.

When it was about 100 meters, Zhou Ze still did not give the order to shoot, which made the soldiers who had been preparing for a long time anxious.

However, the military order is like a mountain, and they can only continue to wait patiently.

Finally, when it was about seventy meters, the regiment commander Zhou Ze's command knife pointed forward and said in a deep voice: "Fire, shoot freely!" ”

"Bang ......"
