Chapter 467: Flags Fall on the Banks of the Whistling Horse River
Today, on the ice of the Xiaoma River, the blood of horses and people has long been dissatisfied with the entire ice, and it flows slowly along the ice of the Xiaoma River!
30,000 Cossack cavalry fought here until noon, and by now, the Russian army has less than 10,000 men and horses.
Now the number of Gan troops is less than 1,000 people, nailed to the front of Song Qingwu's guard position, Dong Fuxiang is covered in blood, the old man has no less than seven or eight wounds, and he still fights to the death, I am afraid that after this battle, he will also completely lose the ability to fight on the battlefield. --
The Russian army was still charging, and Dong Yiwu yelled: "Yi Xuan, hurry up and take the old general down!" Fast! ”
Dong Yixuan grabbed Dong Fuxiang's war horse to the death, trying to pull the old man to the back, the old general fought to the death, and finally there was no way, Dong Yixuan cut Dong Fuxiang stunned with a palm, and brought it to his horse, and several loyal guards guarded and retreated. Just when the Gan army was close to collapse and the Wuwei army was difficult to support, the Fifth Division and Yuan Shikai's army covered up, and the close ones used bayonets and the far ones directly 'shot', wrapping Linnevich's army tightly in the middle!
Now that artillery and heavy machine guns have completely lost their effectiveness, 'hand-to-hand' combat, completely hand-to-hand 'hand-to-hand' combat, and if you want to completely leave the Russian army here, it will be an unavoidable bloody battle!
The three armies were like rainbows, killing the red-eyed soldiers, completely forgetting what fear was!
Some soldiers were cut to the ground by the Russian army, and they still desperately used bayonets, which made the 'chest' of the war horse, and some soldiers even directly ignored the big knife of the Russian army, and rushed to the front of the war horse.
Linevich was also completely red-eyed, personally picked up the sabre, and fought with the Qing army, but still could not break out of the encirclement of the Qing army, and now the fifth division has bypassed the Russian army and fought side by side with the Wuwei front army.
Linevich, gradually his heart was filled with despair, it's over, the 30,000 Cossack cavalry is over, once the Qing army is desperate, the only thousands of cavalry in front of him are thinking about charging out, it's impossible.
With a long sigh, Ninevich wiped his saber towards his neck, it was time for him to be loyal to the Empire!
Tymoshenko in the back picked up the war knife, knocked the war knife in Linevich's hand away, and shouted: "General, this time is not the time for you to be martyred, there are still thousands of imperial warriors here!" ”
Ninevich said angrily: "What else should I do? We have no possibility of killing, what awaits us is the end of the whole army, I don't want to be the first Russian general to be captured by the Qing army! ”
Tymoshenko said bitterly: "General, for the sake of the imperial warriors behind us, let's surrender, only by surrendering can we save the 'life' of thousands of warriors!" We have no other way to go! Even for the sake of the 'life' of our thousands of warriors, what is personal honor and disgrace, is our honor and disgrace more important than the 'life' of these thousands of people? ”
Lynevich fell silent and surrendered? Take yourself will be really nailed to the pillar of shame in the history of Tsarist Russia! If you don't surrender, do you really watch all the warriors in front of you die?
Tymoshenko said gloomily: "General, a big defeat has nailed me to the pillar of shame, we can't wash it off, we can't mind adding another shame of surrender!" If only we could save the thousands of brothers we are living today! Checkmate! ”
Linevich said bitterly: "Okay, surrender, but all turn, I, Linevich, surrender only to the generals I respect, and order all Cossack warriors to surrender to the army of the Chinese Tiger!" ”
Towards dusk, a real great war finally came to an end, the last large-scale bloody battle in the world in the nineteenth century.
In front of Shanhaiguan, the corpses are piled up like a mountain, and the blood is flowing like a river! War is the graveyard of humanity in no measure.
In the end, the remaining Russian troops of less than 4,000 men all surrendered to the army of the Fifth Division, and Linevich handed his sword to Duan 'Yu'.
As Zhang Yi's representative, Duan Zi 'Jade' took over this sharp sword, full of pride! He shouted: "Listen, the history of you Russians severing cavalry and a few cannons to bring us Chinese to their knees has passed, and the Chinese nation is no longer the sick man of East Asia that everyone can bully from today on!" ”
Fight to fame, this is a real face-to-face life-and-death contest, this is the real squadron on the battlefield through the fight to defeat the world-class power, little Japan is just a pseudo-power in the Asian nest, only an opponent like Tsarist Russia can show the superior combat power of the Chinese people!
After some rectification, the casualties of China and Russia were counted, Song Qing's army was hit the hardest, Dong Fuxiang's Gan army was only less than 200 people left, Dong Fuxiang was seriously injured, the commander Dong Yiwu was seriously injured, and the front army of Wuwei suffered nearly 5,000 casualties; Yuan Shikai didn't have a hard battle all the way down, but the damage was not small, and the three thousand 'elite' elites who were filmed to support Song Qing were only a little more than a thousand left, all of whom were killed; the main army also lost more than 2,000 people, Yuan Shikai looked at the Wuwei Right Army that he had worked hard to manage, and the casualties exceeded one-third, and the headache was dripping blood, there was no way, this is war, only the army that has experienced the flames of war will have strong combat effectiveness!
The casualties of the Fifth Division led by Duan Zi 'Yu' were also not small, mainly after the encirclement of the Russian army, the huge damage caused by the 'hand-to-hand' combat, after the first battle, the casualties of the Fifth Division were close to 2,000 people, and the infantry still suffered a lot in front of the cavalry.
But it all sounds, it's a big win!
The Fifth Division and the two Armed Guards completely defeated 30,000 Cossack cavalry with more than 10,000 people, and the whole army was annihilated, and the remaining more than 3,000 Russian troops surrendered from Linevich!
Especially the Qing Zhengfu who had just signed the "Baoding Treaty", this battle victory was a timely rain, too timely, a life-saving victory, if it wasn't for Zhang Yi's personal command, 30,000 Cossack cavalry, I don't know how long it will be tossed in the pass, and the shame of the alliance under the city of Baoding has finally been washed away!
Could there be a more important victory than this?
Song Qing and Yuan Shikai merged together and came to see Zhang Yi together.
Yuan Shikai gave Zhang Yi a thumbs up and said: "Jianzhi, Jianzhi, you are the real heroes of the world, even if Zeng Wenzheng and Zuo Wenxiang are resurrected!" I, Yuan Shikai, am convinced, amazing. Song Qing also echoed. Zhang Yi smiled faintly and said: "Admiral Song, Brother Xiang Cheng, the war has passed, the Russian army is gone, we can also return to the Queen Mother Lafayette, now that the war in the Northeast is urgent, I don't have time to enter the court to see the two palaces." Early tomorrow morning, I will lead the Fifth Division back to Mukden, where a bloody battle awaits me! Brother Xiang Cheng, I greeted Li Zhongtang on my behalf and said that Zhang Yi would definitely not live up to his expectations! ”
