The battle with the Mailai people was Jia Lian's first battalion and Feng Zijing's second battalion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There were more than 700 people in the two battalions, plus the baggage team, a total of 800 people. And what they had to deal with was the four thousand cavalry of the Men of Mailai.

After a round of fighting, the fighting is currently at a temporary standstill.

The two battalion commanders Jia Lian and Feng Zijing, plus the six company commanders Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Qin Zhong, Feng Zipu, Feng Zimiao, and Shi Song, were gathering together to study tactics.

"I think that's what they do, they don't have any tricks, and I've been fighting with them for so long, and I haven't seen any progress from them."

Jia Qiang's words were full of contempt for the Mailai people.

"It's better to be careful, after all, they still have an absolute advantage in numbers."

Feng Zijing has always been more cautious, and his advantage is that he is more calculating when fighting.

"At the moment, it seems that everything is still going according to our plan, and the reaction of the Mailai people is similar to what we expected. This rhythm, it should be fine. Our first phase goal has been achieved. ”

Jia Lian stood up and looked into the distance.

"Over there in Heishakou, there should be a war now, right?"

Feng Zijing also stood up, holding a map in her hand, and looked at it with Jia Lian.

"It is estimated that the reinforcements of the Iron Buddha should have arrived, and when it comes to marching, their speed is still not slow."

"I hope Chen Yeqing and Zhao Dahai can withstand it."

"Then it depends on how many people come to the plum blossoms. However, we have to believe in the third and fourth battalions. ”

"Yes, the fourth battalion has made rapid progress, I hope they can perform better this time."

"Battalion Commander Jia, you have to believe in Commander Min's training methods, how long have we been here, aren't we going to do it with the Prairie Iron Cavalry? If I had said it before, I wouldn't have believed it myself. ”

"Camp Commander Feng, I don't know how many people are waiting to see our excitement now? It is estimated that the guys in the imperial capital are also waiting for news at this time, right? ”

"I guess they're all waiting for news of our defeat, right? When I used to talk about the grassland cavalry with other provincial regiments, they were all very afraid? ”

"Hmph, as far as their training methods are concerned, no matter how they practice, they are still a bunch of rookies, plus they don't have firearms, if they meet the Prairie Iron Cavalry, where will they be other people's opponents?"

"Hehe, I'm curious to know what their expressions will be when they learn that we defeated the Prairie Iron Riders?"

"What expression? It must be an expression of disbelief. Alright, it's almost time, call your men to attack. ”

"Okay."

Feng Zijing took two steps.

"Feng Zimiao!"

"Here!"

"Lead your company to attack, behave well, Chief of Staff Feng and the Khaki are watching over there."

"Yes, battalion commander, you must not disgrace the Feng family."

Feng Zimiao waved his hand and led the second battalion and the second company to start crossing the river.

As soon as the 2nd Company of the 2nd Battalion went down the river, six Franc machine guns opened fire.

The cavalry of the Mailai retreated as they widened the distance and spread out on both sides.

After a while, the Franc cannon of the second company stopped firing. Seeing that the Bukui people's cannons were gone, the Mailai people gathered again and began to counterattack.

The long guns of the Buqua opened fire, and after a short fight, they withdrew to the west bank.

It seems that this is how their offensive ability is, and the two armies are back to a state of confrontation across the river.

McKayman had been watching at the back of the line, and he knew it in his mind from the first round of the Buqua attack.

However, he was a man with relatively military experience, and he knew that the Bukui people were here, so he must have been prepared. Sure enough, the other party's firearms are still very powerful. Especially the flowering bomb, the lethality of people and horses is still very strong.

However, he soon found a way to deal with it, and that was to distance himself. In this way, the lethal effect of the flowering bomb is greatly reduced.

At first, McKayman was skeptical about how many people had come. He didn't believe that the Bukui people would be so realistic, and when he said eight hundred, eight hundred came.

But, now he believes. This, of course, is the result of his own observations.

"Khurhan, take eight hundred men and go downstream to cross the river. Moritu, take eight hundred men upstream, cross the river, and outflank them on both sides. Hmph, Bukui people, since you're here, don't even think about going back. ”

Khurhan and Mori were given the order to leave, and soon two puffs of smoke and dust rose and the two cavalry left and right.

"Hauge, send three hundred men to cross the river from the front."

"Yes, Chief."

Haug agreed, and in a short time the three hundred Mailai cavalry began to cross the river. Hauge also returned to McKayman.

"Hauge, the Bukui people consume a lot of gunpowder, if these three hundred people are beaten back, it proves that they still have a lot of gunpowder, and the others will not cross the river for the time being. If these three hundred men were able to land, it would prove that their gunpowder was gone. At that time, it was time for our main force to cross the river. ”

As soon as the 300 cavalry of the Mailai people were launched, the Bukui people reacted. More than twenty francs opened fire suddenly. The shell fell into the water and exploded, causing a high splash.

When the splash fell, I saw three hundred cavalry, and less than half of them were left.

Some of the Bukui men lined up in a hundred and began to shoot with long guns, and soon there were only seventy or eighty men left in the Mailai cavalry.

If there is another round of artillery fire and long gun fire, these seventy or eighty people will soon be wiped out in the river.

These tribal warriors were veterans who followed Mackament, and they were loyal to him. Although they have suffered a lot of personal losses this year, and there are many complaints about McKayman, they still came.

One by one in the water, it made McKayman very sad. Just as he was hesitating about this, the situation changed.

The Bukui people suddenly began to retreat. Not only did the people who fired just now retreat, but the other people who watched the battle also retreated together.

"Hauge, they're out of ammunition, where are Hurhan and Mauri breaking through?"

"They have crossed the river and are outflanking."

"We are also ready to cross the river and chase after them, and we can't let them run away."

"Chief, could this be their ruse? Want to lure us into falling for it? ”

"Aren't our people already ashore? They didn't fight back, which proved that they were not strong enough, and they didn't dare to fight us in close combat, so they had to flee. They also found that Khurhan and Mori were outflanking them, and if they did not run again, they were surrounded. ”

"Okay, this time, I'll kill him without leaving a piece of armor. Warriors, all cross the river and kill those Bukui people! ”

Brother Hao raised his arms and shouted, and the tribal warriors were immediately excited, and they rushed towards the river.

Still, McKayman was a little worried.

When a large group of men and horses cross the river, they are most vulnerable, and if the Bukui people kill the horses and guns, and a cannon and musket, the losses will be great.

Looking at the seventy or eighty people who had already come ashore before, there seemed to be nothing unusual, all waiting for the large group of people to cross the river, and McKaymen relaxed a little.

It wasn't until the whole team had crossed the river that McKayman's hanging heart was completely relieved. Then pat the horse and start crossing the river.

The Mailai cavalry were accustomed to running rampant on the grassland, and this time they had been pressed and beaten by the firearms of the Bukui people, and they had long held their breath in their hearts. I can't wait to catch up with those cowards and chop them under their horses at once.

Now that the gunpowder of the Bukui people has run out, they just have to wait for the leader to come ashore and give the order, and they will go after the cowards.

They were not afraid of them running, for Khurhan and Morithu were outflanked on either side, and the Iron Buddha men were coming to stop them.

This time, the Bukui people never wanted to run again.

Hmph, dare to go to the grassland to spread wild, and don't look at who is the master here!

By this time the McKay men had reached the middle of the river, and in a few moments he was ashore. At that time, it was time to attack.

They were all looking forward to the moment of revenge, however, no one noticed the six haystacks around them.

These haystacks were piled up by the tribes when they were threshing the grass. Nowadays, there is not much pasture left on each haystack mountain, only a few scattered pastures, which are piled up there in a haphazard manner.

If someone pays attention at this time, they will find that there is something moving under the grass. After a while, someone lit a straw rope. This straw rope seems to be no different from ordinary straw rope in appearance, but it seems to be particularly willing to catch fire, and the fire makes a sneering sound while the fire burns.

There were six such ropes of straw, which extended from different directions to the place where the cavalry of Mailai gathered.

Haug had already landed first, and was now in formation, and as soon as McKayman came ashore, he was about to begin the pursuit of the Bukui.

"Huh? Why is there still a fireline snake at this time? ”

A tribal warrior pointed to the beach not far away.

The firing snake is a non-venomous snake commonly found in the Wendura grassland. The whole body is fiery red, and it walks on the ground, like a tongue of fire piercing through the ground.

"Hey, there's one over there."

"yes, there's one over there."

Brother Hao also felt strange, so he wanted to go over and take a look, and suddenly, he felt ominous in his heart.

"It's not good, there's gunpowder, spread it out! Spread out! ”

Haug shouted hoarsely, and the tribal warriors understood, and immediately dispersed in all directions. However, it was already too late.

Earth-shattering explosions came and went, one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the people called the horses neighing, and there was a mess. Plumes of smoke, along with something that exploded, spread in all directions.

The mount under him did not dare to go forward, and McKaymen rode on his horse, standing in the middle of the four rivers in a daze.

Around him, there were constantly things falling from the sky, falling into the water, stirring up splashes. Some things sink to the bottom, and some of them sink to the bottom and float up again.

There were scraps of clothes and severed limbs of people ...... what floated up.

McKayman didn't know how long the explosions had been going, and all he had in mind was one thought.

It's over, it's over, it's over.
