"Kill! Kill! ”

Howling like a beast, thousands of Manchurian cavalry suddenly came out of the concealment, and attacked the defeated team of the Taiping army with lightning speed, although the Taiping army team also reacted immediately, but hunger and exhaustion have seriously weakened the physical strength of the Taiping soldiers, plus the Qing cavalry came too suddenly, leaving too little time for the Taiping soldiers to react, so before the Taiping soldiers turned the loose lead formation into a tight phalanx, the Qing cavalry was already like a sharp knife, Directly inserted into the loose formation of the Taiping army. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Another massacre began, with the inertia advantage of the war horse charge, the condescending Qing cavalry brandished a saber to slash and kill the Taiping soldiers fighting on their backs, blood splashed, the war horses neighed, people shouted knives, and the messy gunshots were interspersed, and the Qing cavalry cut the same with a sharp knife, directly breaking the Taiping army's ranks, leaving the corpses of people and horses all over the ground. Then the cavalry of the Qing army kept their hooves, turned around in a circle on the open plain, and plunged headlong into the chaotic Taiping army, once again causing countless casualties to the Taiping soldiers.

The soldiers of the Taiping army roared helplessly and sadly, but Shengbao led another cavalry to laugh in the distance, very proud of his army's performance. The Qing army generals such as Kuifu, Kexing'a and Qingqi next to him were constantly sycophants, and they all praised the defeated generals for their use of troops like gods, and their commanders were well-organized, wiser than Kong Ming, and Zhang Fei was better than Zhang Fei in martial arts, and the marching battle was a hundred times better than that of the monk and the prince.

The demoralized rear team of the Taiping army was quickly crushed by the cavalry of the Qing army, completely collapsed and scattered, and fled all over the mountains. refused to let his subordinate Dumei Shengbao also personally lead the army to kill, try to maximize the results of the battle, and personally hacked to death a Taiping soldier who had laid down his arms and surrendered on the battlefield, in exchange for the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry applauded in unison, "Good knife skills!" Handsome and mighty! ”

In the end, it was still near the position of Chen Yucheng's troops of the Taiping Army, who had already been well prepared, that General Shengbao, who had already suffered from Chen Yucheng, ordered Mingjin to end the pursuit that no longer had any meaning. Chen Yucheng's army suffered from the fact that there were too few cavalry, and he didn't dare to touch the stone with an egg, so he had to watch General Shengbao leave.

In the afternoon of the same day, Shengbao received a report from scouts that the front team of the Taiping army's defeated troops had arrived at Chenqiao Town, but had not been able to enter Chenqiao Town, which was protected by earthen walls, and was confronting the Wu army guarding Chenqiao Town and Chenqiaodu pontoon bridge. When Shengbao heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Do you understand?" Wu thief really didn't let the long-haired front team into the town? ”

"Back to the big handsome, the small one can see it clearly, the Wu thief white hat soldier guards the town gate, and no long hair is allowed to enter the town." The scout replied truthfully.

"Good! Continue to explore again, as soon as there is any movement, report immediately! ”

Shengbao was even more overjoyed, first explaining that the scouts were closely monitoring the situation between the Taiping army and the Wu army, and then gathered the Qing cavalry that were pursuing in three directions, and gathered troops in Pandian Town, twenty-five miles northeast of Chenqiao Town, while letting the Qing cavalry, who was also exhausted, take a break, while patiently waiting for the scouts to report. In addition, General Shengbao also carefully sent a large number of scouts to closely monitor the surrounding movements, especially Fengqiu County, where the Wu army was stationed.

It didn't take long for the good news that General Shengbao was so happy that he couldn't believe his ears suddenly came - the Taiping army led by Shi Dakai actually had a skirmish with the Wu soldiers guarding Chenqiao Town, and a group of Taiping soldiers who tried to storm the gate of Chenqiao Town were shot away by the Wu soldiers!

"Lao Tzu has long said that Wu Chaoyue is a dog thief who looks at wolves, with a human face and a beast's heart, and is a jackal hungry tiger who eats people and does not spit out bones! Really! Really! Today, his true colors are revealed! Long Hair is in good alliance with such a traitor, it's really damn blind! ”

When General Shengbao laughed wildly, the generals of the Qing army were also happily discussing the reasons for Wu Jun's refusal to allow the Taiping army to enter the country, and as a result, the generals of the Qing army quickly unanimously decided that Wu Jun was either afraid that the Taiping army would harass the place after entering the country, and even suddenly made trouble to occupy the magpie's nest, or that Wu Jun saw that the Taiping army was in general and was ready to turn against the Taiping army.

"Congratulations to the handsome, congratulations to the handsome, as long as Changmao and Wu Thief fight, this time we just can't think of winning a big victory."

While rushing to congratulate Shengbao, all the generals of the Qing army were also envious of the unfortunate luck of the commander of Shengbao -- they were able to encounter the good thing of the Wu army and the Taiping army suddenly turning their faces and starting a war. And our Sheng Dashuai even smiled so much that even his eyebrows bloomed, and he said with a fake modesty: "This also depends on your meritorious pursuit and growth to this point." Rest assured, if this battle can really be won a big victory, and Shi Dakai captures Yang Yuanqing alive, when the red flag is victorious, your name will definitely not be missing on the fold! ”

Indeed, the generals of the Qing army who could drink some soup hurriedly thanked them, and also prayed vigorously that the Wu army and the Taiping army would quickly fight, so that the self-army could pick up a big advantage. It didn't take long for another scout Pegasus to arrive, and immediately cheered from afar: "It's time to fight!" It's time to fight! Wu thief and Long Hair have fought! Changmao stormed Chenqiao Town, and the Wu thief army is crossing the river from the pontoon bridge to reinforce Chenqiao Town! ”

"God help me!" General Shengbao jumped three feet high, and immediately shouted: "The whole army is on the horse and marches to Chenqiao Town!" ”

"Dashuai, do you want to wait a little longer, and wait for Wu Thief and Long Hair to lose both?" The confidant Shanlu admonished.

"Afraid of a ball! We are all cavalry, ready to retreat at any time! ”

With a wave of his hand, the commander of the victory, who was anxious to establish a full merit, categorically rejected Shanlu's kind proposal, led the Qing cavalry directly south, and hurried to Chenqiao Town to prepare to pick up the cheap. As a result, what made Shengbao and the Qing soldiers even happier was that they had just seen the pontoon bridge erected by the Wu army on the Yellow River, when they heard the gunfire at the pontoon bridge ferry, and the cannon fire was incessant, and the battle was in full swing.

At this time, the cavalry of the Taiping Army led by Li Kaifang had already blocked the way, and after many fierce battles, the cavalry of the Taiping Army had only more than 1,200 people left, and the number had been far away from the Qing cavalry, so Shengbao did not hesitate, and immediately commanded the cavalry to attack. And Li Kaifang obviously didn't expect the Qing cavalry to move so simply, so he hurriedly led the army to turn around and run, and the Qing cavalry took advantage of the situation to pursue, approaching the periphery of the battlefield in Chenqiao Town, and reined in the horse's head a mile away from the Taiping army's infantry position.

Relying on his own cavalry to run fast, Sheng Dashuai also led the main force to the front line to check the situation, the result is okay not to see, as soon as he saw Sheng Dashuai, he smiled crookedly, the Taiping army's attack on Chenqiao Town has been repelled by the Wu army, and was forced to line up a defensive formation at the same time to confront the Wu army and the Qing army, and the Wu army is still crossing the river from the pontoon bridge endlessly, strengthening the troops on the north bank, and clearly preparing to fight with the Taiping army.

Seeing this scene, General Shengbao even had a whimsical idea, and instructed his henchman Shanlu: "Choose one who is not afraid of death, go around to the edge of Chenqiao Town and contact the Wu thief, just say that we have absolutely no intention of going to war with them, if they join forces with us to attack Changmao, the spoils will be divided equally!" ”

"This ......, will the Wu thief army probably agree?" Shanlu asked with some concern.

"What are you afraid of?" Shengbao said in a big way: "If it doesn't work, there is no loss, if it does, we will have a great contribution this time." ”

Shanlu thought about it, and was about to send someone to contact the Wu army, but he never thought that there was a Qing army scout rushing to the east, shouting: "Dashuai, in the woods of the three-in-one camp, a Wu thief cavalry suddenly appeared, and it was killing us!" ”

"What?"

Shengbao's heart jumped, and when he hurriedly raised his binoculars to look east, he saw that a Wu cavalry wearing white crowned hats appeared in the wilderness to the east, and was striding towards the west. At the same time, there were also Qing army scouts rushing to the west, shouting loudly: "Great marshal, the Wu thief cavalry has been found in the west, and they are killing us!" ”

"The west too?" The frightened General Shengbao hurriedly turned his telescope to the west again, and sure enough, a cavalry of the Wu army suddenly appeared in the wilderness to the west.

At this point, although General Shengbao had a faint premonition of being deceived, he still had a little hope - these Wu cavalry might have come to the Taiping army, because the Taiping army did not attack the Qing army?

The cruel facts soon completely shattered General Shengbao's last illusions, and the Wu cavalry, which came from two ways one after the other, not only rushed directly to the two wings of the Qing cavalry, but also opened fire on the Qing cavalry as soon as they entered the firing range. At the same time, after confirming that the Wu army's ambush was really against the Qing army, the cavalry of the Taiping army also launched a charge without hesitation, and cooperated with the Wu army's cavalry to attack the Qing cavalry on three sides.

"Hit the mark! Evacuate! Wu thief, long hair, I'll fuck your mother's eighteenth generation ancestor! actually used such a shameless method to deceive Lao Tzu into an ambush! Remove! Evacuate! ”

In the desperate howl of the commander Shengbaosheng, the cavalry of the Qing army turned their horses one after another, scrambling to retreat the way they came. However, it is a pity that at this time, the weakness of the Qing cavalry that was too tired after chasing the Taiping army for thousands of miles was infinitely magnified, and they could not outrun the Wu cavalry who had been recuperating for a long time in the galloping and galloping, and were easily chased and shot by the Wu cavalry.

When he was forced to engage the Wu cavalry, General Shengbao found out in pain and despair that the Manchurian cavalry under his command was purely a gift to the Wu cavalry - the Wu cavalry, armed with revolvers, fired their bows left and right, and could shoot the enemy off their horses without waiting for the Qing cavalry to get close. However, the arquebuses and short guns equipped by the Qing cavalry became burning sticks and iron lumps with only one shot, and the firepower was completely suppressed by the Wu cavalry.

The sound of gunfire continued, and the Wu cavalry, which was well-stocked, fired as much as they could, shooting off the Qing cavalry one after another. Nie Shicheng, who personally led the army into battle, also kept yelling, "Kill!" Kill! Fighters are rare, and the cavalry of the chaotic party must be annihilated! Never let one go! Shoot, don't skimp on bullets! ”

"Run! Come on! "Marshal Shengbao is also constantly yelling, and constantly kicking the belly of the war horse to force the mount to accelerate, but unfortunately, even if the Marshal Shengbao rarely participates in the battle, the physical consumption of the war horse is not as good as the ordinary Qing cavalry, but after galloping down more than a thousand miles, without getting enough rest, the horse of the victory still can't outrun the Wu cavalry, not only can not get rid of the pursuit of the Wu cavalry, but also gradually been shortened by the Wu cavalry.

In the pursuit, the Wu cavalry with the advantage of melee weapons was led by Nie Shicheng on one side, easily biting the butt of the Qing cavalry, and constantly killing the enemy by name with a revolver, and the other was led by Ding Ruchang, who returned to the flank of the Qing cavalry from a detour, and directly charged towards the place where Shengbao's handsome banner was, opened the way with a revolver, and easily entered the ranks of the Qing cavalry.

It was also at this time that some Wu cavalry who had no time to change their ammunition were forced to raise their sabers to fight white-knuckle combat with the enemy, but even so, the Qing cavalry that had no desire to fight was still not the opponent of the Wu cavalry, unless the Wu cavalry was forced to meet the battle when they were in front of them, otherwise they could hide and hide, and flee as far away from the Wu cavalry as possible.

In the fierce battle of people on their backs, Ding Ruchang, who rushed to the front, always stared at Shengbao's handsome horseman, holding a knife in his right hand to slash and kill, and holding the gold-handled revolver given to him by Wu Chaoyue in his left hand, patiently waiting for the opportunity to shoot Shengbao. As a result, relying on the help of the Wu cavalry, Ding Ruchang really rushed to the vicinity of Shengbao's handsome banner, found Shengbao's handsome man wearing conspicuous cotton armor, and raised his gun to shoot without hesitation.

Bang, Sheng Bao Sheng Shuai screamed, was shot in the thigh, bang again, the helmet on Sheng Bao's head flew into the sky, and Ding Ruchang, who failed to shoot Sheng Bao off the horse with two consecutive shots, was furious, and simply deducted two more shots in a row, but what made Ding Ruchang depressed was that these two shots only hit Sheng Bao's hands and feet, and failed to kill Sheng Bao. And the revolver in Ding Ruchang's hand only had the last bullet left.

"I must use the gun that Wu Dashuai gave me to kill Shengbao!"

Ding Ruchang was ruthless, and when he was about to urge the horse to accelerate, the marshal Shengbao suddenly reined in the war horse, raised his hands and shouted with a crying voice, "Stop fighting!" Stop it! I give up! I give up! ”

"Brother sharpshooter of the rebel army, I have a bit of a holiday with you Wu Dashuai, but it's not big! Can you deliberately beat me hands and feet to torture me? My enmity with you Wu Dashuai is not so deep-?! ”

In this campaign, with the help of the cavalry of the Taiping Army and the cavalry of the Wu Army who arrived later, the Wu army eliminated more than 6,000 cavalry of the Qing army, captured more than 2,000 prisoners, and captured Shengbao, the deputy commander of the Qing army and the chief cavalry general of the Qing army, basically annihilating the main cavalry force of the Manchu court, and completely reversing the disadvantage of the mobility and power comparison between the Wu army and the Qing army in one fell swoop.

As a result, after the news reached Hubei, Wu Chaoyue of course cheered loudly, yelling and saying that he finally no longer had to worry about the grain road being threatened by the enemy. And after the news reached the Qing army, the old fox Luo Bingzhang vomited blood on the spot, and the official document smashed the case in front of him, but the devil six foamed at the mouth and roared loudly, "Defeat!" You're really defeated! You return my cavalry, and return my Manchu and Mongolian cavalry of the Qing Dynasty! ”

It is worth mentioning that, like the battle of the high-rise village in history, after this battle, the Manmeng Iron Cavalry has completely become a historical term and has disappeared forever in the long river of history.
