Chapter 399: Bloody Battle in Baotou City

The next day, Cheknov concentrated the remaining dozen or so infantry guns and began a new round of attacks, while the cavalry did not move, trying to use artillery to blast a gap in Baotou City, and then attack, so as to reduce the losses of the cavalry. --

Of course, Meng Qingyou saw the other party's intentions, and he also saw that the Russian army came from afar, and the artillery was insufficient, as long as their artillery positions were destroyed, the defense of Baotou City would be considered a victory.

Meng Qingyou ordered the artillery to return fire, and the two sides were completely entangled in an artillery battle in the morning.

The strength of the artillery in Baotou City is still above that of the Russian army, after all, sitting in Baotou, the artillery is still relatively sufficient, together with the old artillery, it is Yao who defeated the artillery position of the Russian army in one fell swoop.

The 'engagement' of dozens of 'guns' is not too large-scale, the shells of both sides are constantly coming, and the number of casualties is still increasing, but gradually the only few 'guns' of the Russian army have also been destroyed by the Qing army, and the morale of the Russian army has dropped to the freezing point.

By this time, it had advanced into the afternoon, and just as Cheknov was thinking about retreating, a change of fortune appeared.

It is true that the walls of Baotou City are tall and generous, but in the past 20 years, the recent Baotou people have not had time to make money, although they will be willing to spend money on the construction and reinforcement of the city walls?

In this way, after a day and a half of bombardment, Dongcheng collapsed directly on the north side, along with the Qing army and weapons there, and kicked up a huge amount of dust.

Meng Qingyou saw it really on the side, and he was so anxious that he stomped his feet, alas, he forgot to count this damn city wall, at this critical time, the city wall collapsed, isn't it fatal, once the people and horses of Tsarist Russia frantically hit this gap, then Baotou City will be in big trouble.

Meng Qingyou shouted: "Order, urgently mobilize the heavy machine guns of other city heads, all of them are concentrated on both sides of the gap to suppress the fire here, and I will knock down all the houses behind, and the cavalry will prepare to fight!" The infantry all waited for the houses in the rear, condescending to block the Russian cavalry, and once their horse team charged, we were not completely sure to keep them out of the city! Fast! ”

At this time, Cherknov, who was outside the city, was overjoyed, laughed and shouted: "God's gift, well, artillerymen, give me to continue the attack!" Artillery! Artillery, go on the offensive! ”

Cheknov shouted several times in a row, but there was no reaction around him, and when he looked back, there was only one cannon on the artillery position, but the back hall had been blown up by the shells of the Qing army, and the artillery was gone!

Cheknov pounded his head with hatred, he knew this, so he brought more cannons! Damn, this is going to kill you.

There is no way, without artillery, now it seems that it can only be attacked by cavalry, anyway, the gap has been opened, and the attack has become much easier.

Cheknov roared: "Cavalry, charge!" ”

In an instant, more than 2,000 cavalry began to charge like a swift wind, lightning-like 'approaching' towards Baotou, and now there are only two or three 'doors' of artillery on Baotou City, which is difficult to make a strong threat to the charging cavalry.

Meng Qingyou looked at the Russian cavalry so frantically, and shouted: "Heavy machine gun echelon configuration, form a three-dimensional firepower network for me, fight!" ”

The Qing troops added up their heavy machine guns and began to 'shoot' nervously, but just such a 'shooting' attack, although it brought a certain amount of lethality to the Russian army, it still could not suppress the advance of the Russian cavalry.

500 meters......

400 meters......

300 meters......

200 meters......

The army of Tsarist Russia finally entered within 100 meters, and Meng Qingyou shouted: "Fuck, grenades, prepare them for me, fuck, throw them all at Lao Tzu!" I don't believe that I can't fight back their attack! ”

This is the last trump card in Meng Qingyou's hand, in Baotou City, there are still a hundred boxes of stored grenades, which came in handy at this time, but it only suppressed the offensive of the Russian cavalry, and the Russian army still did not retreat.

Finally rushed to the city wall by the Cossack cavalry, at this time the war, the command had entered into a hand-to-hand encounter, and the command was already difficult to play.

Under the leadership of the security regiment, the Qing army who stuck to the gap here swarmed up and stood in one place with the Russian army that came up, and this time was the most critical moment!

Fortunately, the gap here is not very large, it is a gap with a width of more than ten meters, the Russian army can not squeeze up on a large scale, it has become a typical refueling tactic, the Qing army and hundreds of Russian cavalry scuffled together, the sword light 'chaotic' flashed, the bullets were 'shot' in four 'shots', the arms, arms, and heads of the soldiers of the two countries flew in the air, and the terrible screams rang out in one piece, and on the ground, the blood gathered into a stream of blood, flowing everywhere.

Fortunately, Meng Qingyou saw the opportunity early, arranged some soldiers on the roof in advance, and got out of close contact with the Russian cavalry, condescendingly, and carried out 'shooting' attacks, which greatly weakened the cavalry advantage of the Russian army.

In this way, after a bloody battle, the Qing army repelled the Russian army after paying a heavy price. The color has been completely darkened, but the comparison of casualties between the two sides of this war is completely reversed, one afternoon, the Qing army casualties reached 2,000 people, although the Russian army has suffered a lot of losses, but it is only a lot of wounded, only four or five hundred people died in the battle, the power of the Russian army in close combat is completely highlighted, not only the Qing army, even if the security regiment is in a face-to-face fight, it is not the opponent of the Russian army, after all, the security regiment has not experienced a major war, and lacks that ruthless style.

Meng Qingyou's mood was much heavier, if the Russian army didn't retreat tomorrow, then whether Baotou could be kept, it was still between the two, damn it, the fuck was Minshan's waste, the city wall became that virtuous, and I didn't know that the silver two were allocated for renovation, which led to the collapse of the city wall, so that the Russian army had an opportunity, otherwise, the Russian army would never be able to rush up, after an afternoon of fighting, the breach of the city wall was even greater, and tomorrow's defense would be more difficult.

It seems that now there is only one way to sneak attack this Huashan in the middle of the night.

Meng Qingyou shouted: "Li Leiluo, gather all the blue wolves, it's time for our blue wolves to dispatch, if they don't succeed, they will become benevolent, sneak attack the Russian army tonight, kill their general leader, and Baotou will have a chance to live!" ”

Li Leiluo said: "Lao Meng, you are in Baotou, I will personally lead someone to bring back the head of the brigade commander of the Russian army!" Meng Qingyou said in a deep voice: "No, such a critical action, there is no room for a single mistake, I must personally lead the team, I can rest assured, you give me an honest housekeeper!" Li Lei's face changed when he landed, and he said hurriedly: "No, resolutely no, now you are the backbone of the entire Baotou City, once you have some accidents, the entire Baotou City will collapse immediately, I resolutely disagree!" ”
