Chapter 130: The first confrontation
This was the largest casualty since their attack on the East, and it was a precedent that had never been seen in the entire West. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The French army was enraged, and they seemed to have forgotten that they were invading other countries, and that they were still doing what was inferior to the beasts.
At the same time, Gu Ba felt that the reason why Shangsi City was captured so quickly must be a trap of the Qing State, in order to sneak attack the artillery position when he attacked the city.
It was too shameful, so in a fit of rage, he killed the Qing court official who led the party first, and then led his subordinates to pursue.
They can't help but chase, the French artillery is still alive and must be rescued, otherwise the artillery will not fight with them in the future.
The French army, without artillery, might as well go home and have children, which is the favorite sarcastic and ridiculous words of the French in Europe after the death of Napoleon I.
Soon the French caught up with the New People's Army, located in the area between two mountains and a ravine.
The New People's Army suddenly stopped, and the New People's Army, which fled in panic, resolutely turned its guns and prepared for defense.
With Yang Dongfang here, the sacks and sandbags prepared early appeared in front of the New People's Army, and the skilled New People's Army quickly piled up a defensive front.
"How is this possible!"
It was the first time that the French army had seen someone in the East who would use sandbags to block the attack, which was something only in the West, how did the Easterners learn it.
"Brave warriors of the French Empire, rush! Kill all the Qing people, avenge God's people, and save our artillery! It's like rescuing the women you love so much. ”
French musketeers and French artillerymen, just like romantic male and female lovers on the streets of France, can only masturbate without each other, and they will masturbate to death.
The highest officer, Guba, gave the order, and the priest in the army read a scripture for them, giving them a mental blasting skill, and then the French army launched an attack on the New People's Army.
Ten French drummers beat drums next to Ze and made a thumping sound, and the French soldiers launched an attack on the New People's Army.
"Target 400 meters!"
"Ready!"
"Target 350 meters!"
"Aim!"
The French army was getting closer and closer, and the black head rushed over, and in front of the guard regiment, this was a corpse, because the French army's tactics were to arrange in three sections.
"Target 300 meters!"
"Collective fire!"
The New People's Army pulled the trigger one after another, and the rows of France fell.
This French army also did not expect the New Nationalist Army to open fire so far, and at first thought that it was the New Nationalist Army bluffing, because they knew that the Qing muskets could not go far, unless it was the Huai Army in Jiangnan with British equipment.
Otherwise, even the famous Hunan army at the top is just an old musket.
But reality quickly gave them a slap, and this slap was still very painful, knocking out the tooth.
Hundreds of people were killed and wounded at the first firing, and the Gallic chickens were dumbfounded.
it, it's not the right rhythm!
"Okay, 100 meters!"
The second wave of fire of the new Nationalist army sounded again, and at this time the fastest French army had not advanced 200 meters before they were attacked head-on.
"Open fire, kill the Orientals."
More than 200 people were killed and wounded in two waves, and the French officers could not calm down at all, and they did not care about the regulations, so they could only let people open fire.
How to say, the French army in front of the line is armed with 1857 carbines, which is one of the most advanced guns currently equipped in France, and the firing range is much longer, but it is still Mini's front-loading gun.
After a round, it was regarded as suppressing the New Nationalist Army, but it did not hurt the New Nationalist Army, because whether it is the current 1857 or the more advanced 1859 of the French army, all of them use the large-caliber of old-fashioned barrels, and the French have never studied and equipped small-caliber Mini guns.
If you shoot alone, the accuracy is terrible.
What's more, they had to stop and let the French troops behind them come forward to shoot and attack, reload their ammunition in the back, and play three alternate attacks, after all, the guns in their hands are not breech-loading type.
It can't be fired continuously, and it can be reloaded at will.
The New People's Army had sandbags to hold on to, and it could shoot continuously, and it was not afraid of the French army at all, and it had the advantage of the defenders, and the New People's Army did not suffer much damage, and it attacked Yilun, and the French army had to retreat.
Because they suffered more than 300 casualties in this round, they lost a lot of troops, the formation was disrupted, and they also saw the firepower of the New People's Army, so they really couldn't rush through.
So he retreated to rest and recuperate, and then launched another attack, this time only more than a hundred people were killed or wounded, and then retreated.
Then another attack was launched, another hundred or so died, and then retreated, and did not launch a fourth attack.
Because they felt that the troops with the same advanced weapons could not be defeated, and without artillery cover, the French army could not adapt to the Chinese battlefield at all.
At this time, Guba wanted to retreat to Shangsi City, a city that had just been occupied, and fought a delaying battle with the New People's Army in Yituo City, but the remaining French troops fled in embarrassment.
"The general is not good, Shangsi City was taken back by the Qing people, the Qing people have very powerful muskets, and there is an explosive firearm that can be thrown by hand, which is not weaker than the small cannons on our ships, we are outnumbered and driven out of the city."
"The general is not good, the Qing people who also appeared behind us, they also erected a sandbag wall, should we take advantage of the current time to launch a breakthrough, otherwise we will be surrounded."
Lone was shocked when he heard it, and he also understood that he had been tricked, and at the moment he made people rush behind and tried to rush out.
There was only one battalion of the New People's Army in the back, blocking the French army to the death, the French army was repulsed twice, with 400 casualties, this time the momentum was lower, and they retreated after another round, and finally they could only let people escape from the mountains on both wings to ask for help, and ask for help in the direction of Qinzhou.
And began to actively cling to it.
The New People's Army deliberately let go of a few French who reported the news, and soon Qinzhou heard the news and sent a rescue team of 800 people to support along the road, but halfway through the New People's Army was ambushed, and most of the casualties were lost, and the French withdrew to the city, and they did not come out alive or dead.
Only then did Yang Dongfang transfer back to the ambush team, preparing to make every effort to clean up the besieging French troops, who had been hungry for a day and a half, and heard that the rescue had been repulsed, so they forcibly broke through twice in the middle of the night.
However, they were all repulsed, and Guba himself took the opportunity to follow Garnier Ai through the mountains and fled back to Qinzhou City, which made Yang Dongfang regret it.
The rest of the French had to know that their commander had fled, so they had to surrender with their guns in tow, and the main reason for surrendering was the fear of starvation.
Only then did the New People's Army escort the captives into Shangsi City, but when they saw the tragedy of Shangsi City, Yang Dongfang roared angrily: "Bring out the priest who can speak to us, and then interrogate the red-haired ghost, all those who have spoiled the people will be killed, and all those who have no skills will also be killed." ”
"Skills?"
"Those who can operate cannons, can repair guns or machines, Dong Chemical, Gewu, can sail, can operate sea ships, etc., and the rest can only eat dry rice and be pulled to the entrance of the vegetable market to be cut." Yang Dongfang was not in a very good mood and explained slightly.
There are so many people in the land of China who have no food to eat, who has the leisure to support the invaders and treat the prisoners preferentially, and the devils are not counted for the time being.
