Chapter 384 Keep Running, Keep Running

"It's a dog! The foreign devils have fired, and they will all return to me! ”

Hear the whistling shells! Zhang Jinqi immediately asked everyone to retreat from the trenches to the rear, he did not expect that the coalition forces that had just stopped the offensive would suddenly launch such a fierce attack again, and the shells were tilted down.

Fortunately, he was not careless, and received Yang Dongfang's order to make Kailangfang not have to fight with the British and French forces, otherwise this blow up will cause great casualties.

Leaving a company in the rearmost trench in the anti-artillery hole, the evacuate team prepared in advance quietly withdrew with the wounded.

When the shells of the British and French troops were finished and the infantry cautiously rushed up, there were only sporadic gunfire to counterattack, which made the British and French troops excited, and Bahrain swore to his subordinates: "See, the new Nationalist army in front of us has finally been eradicated, and this group of monkeys has been wiped out by us, so that the charging team will directly rush up to occupy their positions." ”

The broken company, fighting and retreating, quickly withdrew before the large forces of the British and French forces rushed up, and the coalition forces immediately fully occupied the position and broke through the Langfang blockade.

However, they did not find many corpses of the New People's Army on the position, let alone prisoners.

French Colonel Deville said: "Commander! Although we occupied the position of the New People's Army and opened up Langfang, the remnants of the New People's Army that resisted us fled, should we pursue them and completely destroy them? ”

Bahrain waved his hand and said, "No need! Most of the New People's Army was wiped out by us, and only a few stinky rats escaped, and our top priority was to rush to Tianjin. ”

French Colonel Davier asked again: "What about these cannons, now there is only a little bit of artillery left, I am afraid that it will not be effective, if you take the artillery with you, it will delay a lot of time." ”

Balin smiled weirdly: "It's okay! Let's go first, let the artillery palace be behind, and ask General Liu of the Qing State to protect our artillery, anyway, he likes to play tricks and doesn't want to work. ”

"Hmmm! It works! Let the cowardly Qing army be the nanny of our artillery. ”

Liu Mingchuan was woken up again, looked at the sky, and wondered: "Lord Yang asked us to protect their artillery, pull the cannon and push the cannon to Tianjin?" ”

Wei Rugui replied: "Yes! What should we do with the military gate, now that my brother's physical strength has only recovered a little, I am afraid that there will be complaints to help the foreigners push the cannons. ”

Liu Mingchuan's eyes became sharp, and he looked at Langfang County: "This time the coalition army captured Langfang too quickly, the New People's Army has been blocking for so long, and it has been very tenacious. ”

Speaking of the back, Liu Mingchuan's eyes revealed a gloom, and Wei Rugui, who knew his boss, would also smile meaningfully, you know how to become tacit.

The coalition army was in a hurry, just crossed the Dragon River, and there was a new roadblock in front, Yang Dongfang personally led the troops to meet the coalition army, Yang Dongfang immediately chose a section of the road, waved his hand and threw out countless sandbags, and immediately built a blocking position, waiting for the coalition army to attack.

"Damn! How come there are also troops of the New People's Army here, and this army has built fortifications in such a short time. "Curse after curse, Bahrain still immediately let people launch an attack, wipe the combat effectiveness of this army, and see if this temporary trench is strong.

However, they were soon met with fierce return fire, followed by a burst of artillery shelling, and the rhythm of the attack disrupted the troops and the troops retreated, and as a result, more than 300 people were killed and wounded in this round of attack.

"This is also a strong army, I have a hunch that this is a force that is many times stronger than the new national army in Langfang!" French Colonel Deville was not optimistic about the prospect and began to decline.

Bahrain didn't deny it much, it was obvious that the troops in front of it were all breech-loading guns and heavy artillery, and their own people were only bombed, and if they wanted to pass through here, they had to take a detour, otherwise they had to die.

And at the time of this scrubbing, the newly sent reconnaissance came back, this time they were not robbed and killed by the New People's Army, Yang Dongfang deliberately let them collect useful information.

This Ba Lin was convinced of the situation in Tianjin, his eyes were worried, his face was extremely pale, and the blow to him was really a bit big, and the officers who had to know the news were also silent and dead.

Bahrain made a decision: "I'm sorry guys, we have been misjudging and now we have to make new adjustments.

This news should not be spread, lest the morale of the army be shaken, so as to say that Tianjin was taken by the New People's Army, but the troops in the concession have moved to the north, so we must also move north, and the troops will then withdraw to Langfang, and from there they will lead to Xianghe County, gather the troops attacking Jizhou, and go to Tangshan together. ”

Seeing that the coalition forces were preparing to withdraw to Langfang, Yang Dongfang smiled: "I want to leave now, it's a little late, give me a bite of them, and I want to eat Bahrain little by little." ”

With Yang Dongfang contained, the speed of Bahrain's northward retreat is extremely slow, although the new people's army is only more than 1,000 people, but with Yang Dongfang's BUG, he can build trenches at any time, and it is impossible for Bahrain to kill him directly.

had to slow down, divided into two rounds to cover the retreat, and retreated all the way across the Dragon River, leaving a battalion to guard the mouth of the river, and then the brigade quickly reversed Langfang.

But he was wrong again, Yang Dongfang waved his hand, and the pontoon bridge was erected, and a few miles away from the bank of the river guarded by the coalition forces, he quickly crossed the river, and then killed the flanks, and the number of two to one was added with artillery.

The British troops of this battalion were defeated and fled, and more than 400 people were killed by Yang Dongfang, and Yang Dongfang continued to pursue with his people.

It turned out that after Liu Mingchuan left, the security brigade of the New People's Army, which was defeated by the coalition forces, turned back and attacked the coalition artillery regiment, and the artillery of more than 1,000 people was either killed or captured.

Bahrain, which hurried back, only recaptured the artillery that had been captured by the New People's Army but was not taken away.

But at this time, it was useless to keep the artillery, so he decisively abandoned the artillery and went east with 2,000 remnants along Liu Mingchuan's buttocks.

"Haha! Yes, yes, some more artillery pieces were captured. Yang Dongfang met with Zhang Jinqi of the Security Brigade, encouraged him, and by the way, promoted the Security Brigade to the regular main brigade and rewarded him, and then ordered the troops in Tongzhou to pursue Xianghe in an all-round way.

Tell all the departments to chase closely but don't attack hard, bite slowly, tear off the flesh of the coalition army piece by piece, now is the time to pick up snail shells, there is no need to fight with sharks.

When they arrived at Xianghe, Bahrain received news from Shunde Prefecture that an integrated division of the New People's Army rushed to Tangshan, intending to attack Shanhaiguan, and the coalition forces that originally attacked Jizhou had all withdrawn to Tangshan and Luanzhou.

Only then did Bahrain shout that the New People's Army was cunning, knowing that the situation was even worse, and that if he was not careful, he would be in danger of being wiped out, so he went faster.

However, the Tongzhou New People's Army and Yang Dongfang both chased after him, and the New People's Army was more than him in terms of strength, so after converging with more than 1,000 allied troops withdrawn from the southwest of Jizhou, more than 3,000 people from the Bahrain Department hurriedly went to Baodi, not daring to fight.

When he arrived in Baodi, he received the news that the New People's Army in Jizhou took the initiative to go south to intercept the news, which was a big blow to the army's heart, and he did not dare to stop and continue to run eastward.

It is not an exaggeration to say that they can only run together, and run more desperately, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are fleeing in the wilderness and breaking up, fighting endurance is not what they are good at, as long as they stop, the New People's Army will follow them like a shadow.

There are countless people who have fallen behind in this way, all of them were captured alive by the New People's Army, and finally the Qing army that ran and led the way slipped away, and the situation was even worse, they didn't know the road, so they could only look for the direction and go straight to the east, and finally they didn't get lost in Tangshan County, and God took care of them.

But looking at the number of people around him, Bahrain did not have a happy look, and some only lived for the rest of their lives.

"Mo Han, it's good that you didn't lose Tangshan, otherwise I would have become a prisoner of the New People's Army." After running at a high intensity, Bahrain and his troops were so tired that they fell on the side of the road as soon as they entered Tangshan County, like a puddle of mud.

Mo Han looked at the state and number of troops that broke through from Bahrain, and he also gasped, secretly saying that this was too miserable, there were only more than 1,400 points left, and he really couldn't bear to hit Bahrain again, but after struggling, he still reported truthfully:

"Your Excellency Commander, one thing I'm sorry for, the New People's Army attacking Tangshan actually has only one regiment, and we were fooled."

"What! Oh! Fack, Mohan, you are a standard, do you know how much damage your error message caused me? More than 2,000 people were in a hurry, afraid of being surrounded by the New People's Army, so they fell behind, they are the elite of the empire. Bahrain was so angry that he couldn't speak, because he was so tired and too Russian.

He didn't expect Yang Dongfang to be so despicable that he would let a regiment bluff under the banner of a reorganized division, and he was so scared that he kept running, kept running, Nani turned out to be a big liar!

So Bahrain wanted to save face, drank some porridge, and his head cleared up a little before he gritted his teeth and said, "No!" I want to fight Yang Dongfang in Tangshan, I want to defeat him in a dignified manner, let him also taste the pain of the siege, Mo Han went to pull up the troops in Luanzhou, and informed the navy to attack Tianjin. ”
