Chapter 274: Three crossings of the Shiban River
Yang Dongfang looked at Daniel carefully and felt that this guy was too smart, and he had just come up with the Taizu killing move to cross the Chishui River four times, and this guy saw through it, he really deserved to be a lieutenant general, and his ability was greatly reduced.

At the same time, Yang Dongfang wondered again, how could such a talent not be reused by Robert Lee, when the Southern Army was not optimistic about his plan and was unwilling to bring people to join his 2,000 commandos, only such an unpopular general was pushed out and wiped.
Unable to figure it out and not bothering to think about it, Yang Dongfang released a conjoined floating raft specially for crossing the river, and quickly crossed the river with 2,000 people and returned to the south bank.
At this time, Sheridan's men and horses had been searching north for more than ten miles, and suddenly lost their target, and the entire cavalry division pursued in separate directions in regiments, but still did not see the shadow of Yang Dongfang and others.
It wasn't until the regiment to the east sent out a trace of clues by the river that it was judged that Yang Dongfang and the others had crossed the river to the south again, and hurriedly reported. And look for the river crossing point alone.
"What! The little rat who escaped from the southern army crossed the south bank of the river. Sheridan was extremely confused, shaking his head, he really couldn't guess how Yang Dongfang and the others crossed the river, there are no bridges here, and there are no boats, will the Southern Army fly?
Because he is a cavalry, he can cross the river on horseback and shoals, and it is not easy for the southern army to cross the river on two legs, and it will not be very fast.
Unable to think of a reason, Sheridan had to instruct the regiment to the east to cross the river to pursue as soon as possible, and he was willing to bite and not chase and lose, but he also reminded: "Tell Commander Murray, otherwise disperse the troops, take the regiment as the target of action, don't underestimate the enemy, be careful, it's not too late for the whole regiment to cross the river and chase it." ”
After saying that, Sheridan rushed over with his headquarters, but this time he learned to be obedient. With an extra heart, he left a regiment down the river, not planning to chase him to the south bank of the river, he was afraid that the southern army would cross the river again and go around in circles with him.
Famous generals, there are indeed reasons for famous generals, they will draw inferences from each other and take precautions, this time it really made Sheridan guess half right, Yang Dongfang does have plans to cross the river again.
Of course, before crossing the river, he ate a little chess piece of the Northern Army, and the 1,000 people of the Morry Regiment were in the dust, and they finally crossed the river after them and chased them according to their footprints, but he didn't take Sheridan's words too seriously.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, he was not worried about the fate of the three companies nearby, like the three companies last night, after all, he was a regiment, a cavalry regiment, with all Henry serial guns in his hands, and he was afraid of the two thousand lost dogs of the Southern infantry.
"The target is approaching, everyone is in position, pay attention to concealment, no one can shoot without an envoy."
In the hazy spring, the sky in the distance was slightly bright, and among the barren mountains and groves, everything seemed extraordinarily quiet, and the Moli group did not know that death was coming, urging the horses to rumble past, and soon entered the ambush ground preset by Yang Dongfang.
"Hit!"
The first shot was left to Yang Dongfang, and the Sharps breech gun was quite powerful, and he killed two hundred cavalry of the Northern Army in an instant.
The Moli regiment, which was fiercely attacked, was shocked, and never expected that this group of southern troops would really ambush them, and they made a counterattack at the moment, but they were inferior to the southern army in numbers. In addition, it was ambushed, flanked on both sides, and it was very passive.
Stopping in place to counterattack relative to a live target, realizing that he was a cavalry and needed mobility, Commander Murray immediately ordered: "Rush out, don't fight hard with the traitors, gather four miles ahead." ”
Half of the Mori regiment was already defeated, and immediately rushed forward, trying to get past this fire attack point as soon as possible.
But in front of them was an even more terrifying existence, with two halls of Gatling in the middle of the road, and in front of them was a sandbag position, blocking the way of Maury's regiment.
"Fire!"
"Da Da Da Da .!"
"Puff puff .!!"
"Ahhh
The head of the Mori regiment rushed to the front, and fell down in response, and the momentum of his first echelon to break through was instantly knocked out, and more than 200 people were below, and the war horses collided together one after another, and for a while people turned on their backs, and the scene was tragic and bloody.
The southern armies on both flanks took the opportunity to surround them, and it took more than ten minutes to finally solve all the northern armies of Commander Murray.
"The envoy has won the battle again. Haha we won again. ”
Killing another regiment of cavalry, the results are indeed not small, enough to make everyone excited and proud.
"Special envoy, we have killed a regiment of the Northern Yankees, this time Sheridan has to fight with us, he will want to eat our flesh, and I am afraid that he will be in the mood to drink our blood." Daniel pointed his mouth straight and laughed, and then asked: "Envoy, you don't want to cross the river once, it's going to be dawn later, I'm afraid it's not good to be ambushed this time." ”
Three or four battles were fought in one night, all of which ended in victory, and Daniel was almost gone.
Yang Dongfang also nodded, but he already had a draft in his heart, and asked him, "Then what do you think?" ”
"Envoy, you don't want to be in the pit again, do you?"
Yang Dongfang smiled: "Strike while the iron is hot, eat a regiment, or directly kill Sheridan's cavalry division." ”
Daniel secretly said, the envoy is not human, is he? I'm still going to take out a regiment.,Really want to kill Sheridan.,But.。。 Looking at the sky, Daniel felt that it was too difficult, but he was also a war maniac, and bloodthirsty excitement also swelled in his heart.
Hold up the bold, starve the faint-hearted.
After thinking about it carefully, Daniel gave a suggestion: "Envoy, although the destruction of a regiment is enough to make Sheridan crazy, it is not enough to make him lose all his mind, if I were him, I would definitely prevent us from continuing to cross the river to the north bank, and divide his troops and move him around." So I guess this time he'll put troops on both sides of the river and search east. ”
"So if we cross the river to the north bank, we should go backwards to the west and cross the river, so that we don't know what is going on, and we have time to fight an ambush and eat the northern army troops on the north bank."
"Good! Do as you wish, but this time we will divide our troops, and you will pick out two companies of men who can ride horses, and I will take them upstream, and you cross the river, find an ambush point, and ambush them, and eat them when the northern army on the north bank gallops westward, and then we will meet here. Yang Dongfang said his plan again, and then Daniel shook his hand, and he was very happy, and called this plan absolutely amazing, his eyes radiated light, and there was another thing in Yang Dongfang's heart.
It turns out that this Yang envoy can not only summon God, not only brave, but also has a strong military command ability, arranging troops in a set, and such a powerful trick can be thought of.
Soon Yang Dongfang found a place upstream, sent Daniel and others across the river, and then rode west with the captured war horse, of course, leaving clues by the way, and was soon discovered by Sheridan's scouts.
"Bastard! Who is the commander of this group of little rats, they are too bold and have repeatedly attacked our department. Sheridan found out that his Mori regiment had been wiped out, and he felt a chill and rage.
The 2,000 infantry provoked him and killed his pursuers again and again, and he vowed to avenge his men by destroying them once and for all.
Since his debut, he has not suffered such a loss, and now he continued to go west along the river with people, and this time he made another move, sending a liaison officer to notify the Communist Party of China that the infantry regiment was cut off.
This time, he is not chasing so fast, and plans to search inch by inch.
With the James River and the Shiban River and all the river boundaries within dozens of miles around it as the defense line, 2,000 people were completely besieged and killed.
Soon, however, he received another message from the Scout Rider ahead.
"General! The rats crossed the river again, this time on horseback and in the shallows, where we had crossed the river last night. ”
Now Sheridan was in a hurry, he didn't expect the Southern Army to ride the captured war horse, so he couldn't move forward slowly, otherwise the target would be lost, so he didn't wait for the other infantry regiments to come, so he had to order: "The herald to speed up the crossing of the river, inform the Dao Pabo regiment to also speed up the westward march, and be sure to block these rats, this time we can't let them escape."
