Chapter 205 Encirclement Formation
(Still given without saying a word, not without saying)
"Haha! Yang Dashuai really didn't wait for me, and when I arrived in Yizhang, there was a musket support. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Touching the Minnie rifle that had just arrived, Li Jinxue couldn't put it down with his Miao family disciples, his rough big hands stroked back and forth on the barrel of the gun, and he was very excited for a while, he had just fought a battle in Xicheng, Chenzhou, and once again tasted the depressed feeling of being suppressed by the musket, and he was naturally very unhappy, and with these guns, he could have a good fight with the arrogant Chen Shijie.
After resting for a day in Yizhang and eating the military rations and rice mobilized by Yang Dongfang from Xichuan, everyone in the entire forward department overflowed with happy expressions, it was too refreshing to have a full meal, and they went all the way east out of Guizhou, because they did not attack the big city, and the military rations were all without a meal.
A day later, Chen Shijie did not chase after him in the north, Li Jinxue wanted to go north to find Chen Shijie to fight with a musket, but he received that the Guangwu army with Li Jinxue in the Linwu direction came to Yizhang, and now it has passed Matian, so he took the initiative to meet and decided to eat this Hunan army.
On the same day, he sent his troops to continue to attack Pingshi Town, which entered Shaoguan, Guangdong, and threatened to attack Shaoguan on a large scale.
Sure enough, Ge Chenglin and Chen Wenfu planned to attack the county seat and sent a gun platoon to open the way at the front, but the gunfire in the city was loud, and the gun platoon suffered heavy casualties.
The left battalion and the right battalion of the Guangwu Army were in chaos for a while, Ge Chenglin and Chen Wenfu knew the plan, they didn't want to have artillery in the city, they knew that they couldn't conquer it, and they led the troops to defeat them, but at this time, they couldn't go away if they wanted to, and countless soldiers rushed out of the mountains and woods on all sides to surround them.
Ge Chenglin and Chen Wenfu relied on the courage of the Guangwu Army, invincible in the land of the two states, and they were all veterans, launching a fierce breakthrough and wanting to stand out in the direction of Matian.
"Hit! I knew that the Guangwu army was going to flee in the direction of Linwu. Li Jinxue personally led his headquarters to use a thousand mini rifles to block the Guangwu army, and the sharp muskets immediately blinded the left and right battalions of the Guangwu army, and the more fierce the charge, the more casualties there were.
Ge Chenglin and Chen Wenfu were shocked, they didn't expect this group of Miao troops to have such strong firepower, and they quickly broke through to the north and south in two, but they were defeated by flintlock pistols on both sides, and there were many dead and wounded, and they both retreated.
Just when the two were frightened, 10,000 Miao soldiers launched a general attack, not giving the two any chance, and most of the left and right battalions of the 6,000 Guangwu Army were annihilated, and the rest surrendered.
After eating the left battalion and the right battalion of the Guangwu Army, Li Jin sent 10,000 men to the west to Linwu, invaded Guiyang Zhili Prefecture, and then directly attacked Linwu, Jiahe, and Lantian counties.
He himself took his headquarters north to encircle Chenzhou, Chen Shijie didn't know that he had lost one-third of his troops, and the nest was about to be destroyed.
As a result, Yang Daliu did not wait for his reinforcements to arrive, and directly launched an attack on Chenzhou City, making a fierce feint in the north to attract Chen Shijie's attention and troops, and Li Jinxue took the opportunity to attack Chenzhou City from the south under the suppression of muskets.
Chen Shijie was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the city to break so quickly, Li Jinxue's combat effectiveness he knew, he fought once, at that time he had 20,000 people, and he could defeat it in the field, and now he 10,000 people in the north actually broke through the state city in an instant.
"My lord is true, Li Jinxue's people are all muskets, not only flintlock pistols, but also Minnie rifles, there are too many, there are too many muskets, they can't be counted, the brothers can't stop it at all, all are dead, all are dead."
Chen Shijie still has a lot of trust in his Guangwu army that dares to fight and rush, and of course he doesn't believe it when he hears that Chengpo can withstand Shi Dakai's attack back then, and the Guangwu army at that time was only a few thousand people who did not flee and resisted to the death.
Now that the army has expanded by 20,000 people, how can it be defeated in front of just Li Jinxue.
It turned out that they were all killed by muskets, where did these Miao soldiers get their muskets, if they really had, they would have fought with themselves outside Chenzhou City a few days ago, and there were so many, all the way from Guizhou, it was indispensable to capture many cities.
Chen Shijie felt that he had been deceived, how could there be such a deception, you don't need good weapons in the field, you have to use it to attack the city.
Almost spit out a mouthful of stuffy blood, Chen Shijie fainted to death, he had 10,000 people, guarding in the city of Chenzhou, there had never been a big defeat, and he was so defeated that he couldn't escape, and tens of thousands of people surrounded him outside the city.
Chen Shijie fainted to death, but his subordinates chose to surrender, there is no point in fighting, now they are all Han regimes, one is that the New People's Army has a good reputation, and the other is that after the expansion of the Guangwu Army, most of them are recruits, and there is no need to fight to the death.
The deputy middle battalion and the rear battalion heard the news of Chen Shijie's defeat before they arrived in Chenzhou, and quickly turned around and returned to Guiyang County, but they were dumbfounded when they came back, Guiyang County had been lost, and finally under the promise of persuasion, the second battalion wisely chose to surrender and did not go to Hengyang in order to counterattack in the future.
After capturing Guiyang and Chenzhou, the third column marched westward to Yongzhou Prefecture to occupy Ningyuan County and Dao County, and joined forces with the fourth column north of Guilin to form an encirclement circle around Jiang Yifeng and Xi Baotian.
"How so!"
"How could Zhaoqing be lost, Gong Jichang should be damned, how could the New People's Army break through Gaozhou Mansion and insert it directly into Zhaoqing, Master Mao was defeated too quickly, how could Liang Peiyou's army defeat his elite sailors."
Xi Baotian, who was in Lipu County, really couldn't accept these news, and as soon as Wuzhou lost his southern barrier, the New People's Army could threaten Hezhou, and at the same time lose the supply of weapons and ammunition.
"My lord, Su Yuanchun and others have broken through Yurong Town. The 20th Regiment of the New People's Army withdrew from Luorong Town and retreated to the north of Liuzhou to join the 21st Regiment of the New People's Army, and Zhang Kaisong's men also retreated to Liuzhou City. What are we going to do next, do we want to continue to attack the 20th and 21st regiments with Zhang Kaisong? ”
"The 20th Regiment of the New People's Army withdrew from Luorong Town?" Xi Baotian looked at his subordinate general Xie Lanjie strangely, and was puzzled: "Why did the 20th Regiment of the New People's Army retreat, what do you think of the 2nd Division." ”
Xie Lanjie replied directly: "The 2nd Division of the New People's Army is very strong, Su Yuanchun and other 10,000 troops attacked a regiment for seven or eight days, with no less than 3,000 casualties, but it was not taken, let alone defeated, it can be said that this is a strong army with a tough fighting style." Now that I have said that I will retreat, there is no warning, I think the New People's Army did it on purpose, and something must have happened. ”
Xi Baotian didn't know why, he suddenly had an ominous premonition, and said something that he himself didn't believe in a little: "It seems that we underestimated this Iron Thirteen, he must be doing something, maybe he wants to capture Hezhou first and cut off my rear and encircle and annihilate us." ”
"They don't have such a big appetite, Jiang Yifeng, Zhang Kaisong, plus our total number of almost 100,000 horses, and the rabble of a division and a brigade of the New People's Army plus a fourth column advancing eastward is only 50,000." (To be continued.) )
