Under the leadership of Vladimir, a Russian infantry battalion composed of more than 900 soldiers quickly detoured to the opposite side of the left flank of the Wu army's formation, lined up four rows of dense horizontal formations in front of the left flank of the Wu army, and forced the Qing army, which had suffered heavy casualties, to continue to serve as the vanguard to attack the left flank of the Wu army, officially firing the first shot of the battle between the Russian army and the Wu army.

Adopting Li Hongzhang's suggestion, Cao Yanzhong calmed down and did not make any adjustments to the left flank, and allowed the two ordinary battalions of the Wu army that had been arranged before to meet the enemy on their own. Because there were not many enemies on the opposite side, the Wu army on the left flank, which shouldered the heavy task of luring the enemy, was also very calm, first bombarding the enemy column with artillery as much as possible, and then patiently waited until the Qing army on the opposite side entered within 60 meters of the self-army, and then the Wu army on the left flank took turns to shoot and use three shots to meet the enemy head-on.

It was completely the same as before, the demoralized Qing army did not have any courage and determination to fight to the end with the soldiers of the Wu army, the Wu army had only fired two waves of round shots, and the Qing army that was forced by the Tsarist army to stand in front had already thrown down the corpses all over the ground and collapsed, and the Qing army's supervision team had little interest in forcing their companions to come forward to die, and almost at the same time fled to both sides with the combat troops, and threw the glorious task of fighting hard with the Wu army to the Tsarist Russian army behind.

Cursing loudly for the incompetence and cowardice of the Qing army, Vladimir continued to advance with four rows of Russian infantry, and had the courage to rush to about 50 meters away from the Wu army's position before stopping, taking turns shooting, and the twenty-four grenadiers of the two ordinary battalions of the Wu army desperately threw bombs and bombarded, but they still failed to quickly blow up the Russian ranks, and the Russian guns and bullets were like hail raindrops, which continued to shoot at the Wu army's position, causing a lot of casualties to the Wu army.

The Russian soldiers who were accompanied by guns all day long were obviously superior to the Qing army in terms of shooting skills, and their body was much stronger than the Qing soldiers. But fortunately, the grenadiers of the Wu army played a huge role at the critical moment, and accurately hit the Russian army many times during the successive launches, causing many casualties to the Russian army, and at the same time, it also shared huge pressure on the Wu army's infantry.

During the fifth wave of rounds, the loosening of the Russian army's position was even more serious, and at the same time, the war horse of the Tsarist Russian officer Vladimir was also killed by the bullets of the Wu army, Vladimir fell off the horse, the Russian army temporarily lost its command, and the Russian hooligans under him took the opportunity to break up, shouting and fleeing to the way they came. Seeing this situation inside the large phalanx, Cao Yanzhong did not hesitate, and immediately ordered the cavalry of the Wu army to attack and attack the back of the routed army of Tsarist Russia.

It was the turn of the Wu cavalry to make meritorious service, shouting the slogan of killing the Rakshasa ghost, the Wu cavalry rushed out of the gap between the Wu army's horizontal team, holding a knife in the right hand and a gun in the left hand, rushing to the front first shot and then a knife to chop, chopping melons and vegetables like a crazy slash to kill the defeated Russian soldiers, most of the Russian soldiers took care of their own lives, only a small number of people turned around and shot back, which was not much of a threat to the Wu cavalry at all.

Vladimir's fiasco did not surprise the commander of the Russian army Kazakievich at all, on the contrary, carefully observing the performance of the left-wing Wu army in the real fierce battle, Kazakevich also smiled very happily and said with a smile: "Poor yellow-skinned monkey, even dealing with the bastards under Vladimir is so difficult." It seems that there is no Prussian enema gun, and you are at most only the strength of the second-rate army of the West. ”

"Dear General Kazakiewicz, the most ridiculous thing should be the cavalry of the yellow-skinned monkey." Colonel Nikita, the Russian colonel who commanded the Cossack cavalry, laughed even more mockingly, and said: "Vladimir's army has collapsed, and the cavalry of the yellow-skinned monkey does not dare to charge at full speed, if I guess correctly, this cavalry of the yellow-skinned monkey has definitely not been formed and trained for more than a year, and it has definitely not been on the battlefield several times." ”

Nikita really didn't guess wrong, because the control of the land does not produce war horses, the cavalry strength of the Wu army has been very weak, and later after taking Sichuan and Yungui, he gradually obtained some Sichuan horses and Yunnan horses, Wu Chaoyue can only give priority to the war horses to the Central Plains Wu army led by Nie Shicheng for suppression, the Wu army cavalry trained in Sichuan can only be used in the northwest battlefield, and the Cao Yanzhong corps, which has been fighting in the southeast, can only rely on the captured war horses to build its own cavalry, Therefore, the cavalry battalion of the Wu army, which was directly subordinate to Cao Yanzhong, was inferior to the cavalry of Nie Shicheng, Ding Ruchang and the Wu army in the northwest in terms of training and equipment, and naturally it could not be compared with the Cossack cavalry that was notorious all over the world.

To get back to the point, although the Tsarist Russian army that took the lead suffered a defeat, the Russian commander Kazakievich, who had gradually become a bamboo in his chest, did not mind, in addition to forcing the commander of the Qing army, Chonghou, to continue to attack and contain the front and flank of the Wu army, and decisively sent two battalions of infantry to detour back to the left flank of the Wu army and attack the left flank of the Wu army again. At the same time, under the personal leadership of Kazakevich, the main force of the Russian army gradually shifted its position to the east, preparing to concentrate its forces to storm the weakest left flank of the Wu army.

Finding that the enemy had gradually taken advantage of the plan, Cao Yanzhong not only decisively recalled the cavalry battalion that had attacked before, but also adopted Li Hongzhang's suggestion and sent 24 grenadiers to the two ordinary battalions on the left flank to reinforce the firepower, and at the same time asked Wu Dadao to lead Wu Chaoyue's pro-soldier battalion to line up behind the two ordinary battalions and put on a posture of preparing to defend the left flank.

Ten minutes later, the Russian army's offensive against the left flank of the Wu army resumed, two Russian infantry one after the other, lined up to attack the left flank of the Wu army, the two ordinary battalion officers of the Wu army on the left flank gritted their teeth, and continued to resist the enemy's attack with three shots.

This time the battle is far more fierce than the previous one, the cruelty is even more outrageous, in the dense gunfire, the soldiers on both sides continue to be shot and fall to the ground, the screams of dying come and go, never stopping, the Russian army's offensive queue is like a wave of turbulent ups and downs, constantly slapping at the Wu army soldiers with flesh and blood to build the position embankment, every time they collide, they have to erupt countless blood-colored waves, and more than once there is a hand-to-hand white-edged battle, and the red-eyed soldiers on both sides curse all kinds of swearing, There are endless images of each other stabbing each other in the chest with bayonets.

In the fierce battle, in order to further lure the enemy, Cao Yanzhong once again sent a cavalry battalion to attack and attack the flank of the main force of the Qing army in a roundabout way, but the Tsarist Russian army did not pay attention to this at all, and the stride was only a frontal shift to the left flank of the Wu army's phalanx. And because the Tsarist Russian army did give its life to fight with the soldiers of the Wu army, the main force of the Qing army, whose morale was inspired, not only tried to stabilize the position, but also sent cavalry to launch a counter-charge against the Wu army's cavalry, and the Wu army launched a fierce battle in the open area west of the self-army position.

After about half an hour of fierce fighting, the main force of the Russian army successfully completed the task of transferring positions, lined up the field artillery brought by the army in front of the formation, aimed at the left flank of the Wu army, and at the same time decisively recalled the two infantry battalions that had attacked before, making room for a more fierce attack.

Correspondingly, the adjustment made by Cao Yanzhong was to send people to rush back to the camp to give orders, and asked Qian Wei to send two battalions to the southeast corner of the camp to line up, and put on a posture of being ready to go south for reinforcements or to receive the main force back to the camp at any time. And at this moment, the two ordinary battalions on the left flank of the Wu army have already suffered nearly half of the casualties!

Cao Yanzhong's vivid tactical deception finally deceived Kazakievic's eyes, seeing that the Wu army left behind in the camp sent troops to line up, preparing to go south to rescue the main force or cover the retreat of the main force, Kazakevich almost did not think about it, and immediately ordered the artillery team to open fire and violently bombard the left flank position of the Wu army, and at the same time sent someone to Chonghou to give an order, telling Chonghou to strengthen the frontal attack on the main force of the Wu army and cover the attack of the Wu army's left flank position.

"The Rakshasa foreign devil raised by the son of a bitch has finally given up his real skills!"

After scolding, Chonghou, who dreamed of winning the battle, also showed ruthlessness, and sent 5,000 troops to attack the front of the Wu army's phalanx in one breath, faithfully carrying out Kazakevich's orders, and covering the Russian army's strong attack with the lives of Qing soldiers.

At the same time, the left flank of the Wu army was already shaking the sky, and the artillery on both sides desperately fired and bombarded each other, trying their best to suppress the opponent's artillery fire and strike at the opponent's position, and the result was that the Wu soldiers panicked that the Tsarist side suddenly used a large number of black powder flowering shells, which greatly enhanced the shelling effect and caused more casualties to the left wing army of the Wu army, which had already suffered heavy casualties before.

Finding that the enemy was showing signs of a large-scale attack, Cao Yanzhong finally made some moves, and sent someone to bring a message to Wu Dada, and the hundred-person chariot sentry team in Wuda's battalion team quickly moved, took out sacks to fill soil and sand, and rushed to build ten waist-high sandbag fortifications behind the two ordinary battalions of the Wu army. ”

After shelling for a period of time, an infantry battalion was first sent north to intercept and monitor the reinforcements of the Wu army who had just arrived outside the camp to assemble in formation. ”

The order was issued, and the entire two battalions of the Russian regular army, under the personal leadership of Kazakievich, lined up in a dense horizontal line as thick as ten stories and strode towards the left flank of the Wu army. More than 1,500 Cossack cavalry led by Nikita divided into two lines, followed behind the infantry column, and trotted towards the left flank of the Wu army, which was already covered with corpses.

It was only at this time that the Wu army, which was hiding behind the two ordinary battalions, made a big move, the combat soldiers and cavalry unhurriedly untied the canvas wrapped in the guns, revealing a shiny Henry serial gun, smiling and loading metal bullets, and the Wu army chariot soldiers who had already rushed to build sandbag fortifications uncovered the canvas on the car, revealing ten strange big guns with six barrels, loaded the wheelbarrow and pushed them to the front of the formation in a line, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the front after arranging the sandbag fortifications that had been rushed before. The rest of the space on the twenty carriages was neatly stacked with sturdy wooden boxes, all of which contained yellow metal bullets connected with canvas!

It was too far away, and there was a queue of Wu soldiers to block it, Kazakevich and other Russian officers and soldiers of course could not see these small movements of the Wu army clearly, what Kazakevich and the Russian army saw next was just a scene that surprised them The two ordinary battalions of the Wu army that had been stubbornly resisting the attack of the Russian army before, when they approached the Wu army's position about 200 meters, suddenly moved to the rear of the Wu army's northern position, revealing a huge position space, and there were only one battalion of Wu army guards!

"Speed up!"

When Kazakievich shouted this order, the Wu military camp on the opposite side also moved, and some soldiers trotted forward, swinging out a full thirty-two grenadiers in one breath, and immediately loaded and threw bombs, violently bombarding the Russian ranks. However, it is a pity that although the grenadiers and equipment of this Wu military camp are many, they cannot frighten the Russian regular troops who have been trained from the rain of bullets, the Russian infantry is still trotting forward, and the Cossack cavalry of the Russian army is gradually accelerating.

After paying a certain price for casualties, the Russian army's front team finally approached within one hundred and fifty meters of the Wu army, and it turned out that it was also at this time that the Wu soldiers who had been maintaining a squatting posture on the opposite side all lay down, ready to take a lying position to shoot and fight, which the Russian army hated! Seeing this, Kazakievich was furious, and decisively gave Nikita an order to the behind: "Rush up and trample on those yellow-skinned monkeys!" ”

When the order was delivered, Nikita, who had long been itching and unbearable, roared, raised his saber and gave an order, and a war horse took the lead in rushing towards the Wu army's position like an arrow from the string, and more than 1,500 Cossack cavalry followed closely, roaring excitedly and charging with horses, like two iron fists, one left and one right smashed into the Wu army's position. At the same time, Kazakiewicz ordered the infantry to continue with their bayonet-loaded rifles, determined to smash Wu's left flank position in one fell swoop, and then completely destroy the hedgehog tortoise formation that Wu's army had learned from the British.

"Da da! Dada! Dada! ”

After the ten sandbags in front of the Wu army's position, it was as if ten orange fire snakes suddenly erupted, cheering and galloping and swept towards the Russian Cossack cavalry rushing left and right, countless brave and warlike Russian Cossack cavalry didn't even know what was happening, they had already hit the body or the war horse, the person turned on his back, the rider spurted blood arrows on the body, the horse was shot and fell, the horse was shot and fell, and the blood of the man and horse was splashed on the battlefield like splashing ink. Almost in the blink of an eye, hundreds of Cossack cavalrymen screamed and fell to the ground in a pool of blood.

The Cossack cavalry, who did not understand what was happening, continued to charge, stepping on the corpses of their companions and horses that had fallen inexplicably, and behind the ten sandbags of the Wu army, which had already emitted gunsmoke, the huge fire snake was still raging, spraying cone-shaped metal bullets at the Cossack cavalry at an imaginable speed, just like an invisible big hand, knocking the Cossack cavalry to the ground one after another, piercing the bloody arrows.

The unimaginably fast gunfire was still continuous, the Cossack cavalry and the Russian infantry who were charging forward were also lying down in rows like cutting wheat, the corpses of men and horses quickly covered the space in front of the Wu army's position, and the blood quickly stained the brown ground, and many Russian soldiers who were shot and died did not even know what killed them until they lost their breath and closed their eyes, what could have such an amazing rate of fire and shoot so many bullets.

Whether it is the Chinese civilization, the Middle Eastern civilization and the Western civilization, they have suffered great suffering countless times because of the invasion of the nomadic cavalry, the property has been plundered, the old and weak children have been killed, women have been humiliated, their lives have been deprived, and even their society and culture have been completely destroyed. It is no exaggeration to say that every time the nomadic cavalry rises, millions or even hundreds of millions of people in the civilized world are sacrificed, countless cultural treasures are destroyed, and countless prosperous city-states are turned into mountains of corpses and blood, and the flames are flying and destroyed.

The Cossack cavalry in Tsarist Russia is a typical representative of the nomadic cavalry, it is their nature to be arrogant and aggressive, it is their instinct to kill innocents indiscriminately, and adultery and plunder are their hobbies.

The first shot of the civilized world to completely drive the nomadic cavalry out of the stage of history was to hit these brutal Cossack cavalry. Therefore, the bullets fired from the machine guns of the Wu army soldiers not only represent the revenge of the Chinese against the Russian invaders, but also the revenge of the Eastern and Western civilizations against the nomadic cavalry!
