If you really want to talk about it, Yuan Shikai's artillery battalion actually has a few shells per cannon, and there are hundreds of shells in total, but Yuan Shikai also knows that if these hundreds of shells really go out, then these tens of thousands of new troops are afraid that the phoenix that has shed its hair is not as good as a chicken, and the rest of the time will definitely only be slaughtered.

Yuan Shikai increased his troops, with two battalions on the flank, two battalions on the front, plus the previous two battalions on the front and one battalion on the flank, a total of seven battalions of troops have been used.

Of course, Yuan Shikai is not only the strength of these seven battalions, his total strength should be about 20 battalions, but the ones directly used in combat, including the cavalry battalion, are only about 16 battalions. In other words, just in the previous battle of less than an hour, Yuan Shikai invested nearly half of his combat power, and, it seems, the effect is difficult to predict.

The effect is well predicted, because the effect comes out right away.

The two battalions that joined the frontal battle, of course, will not bury themselves in the ground and shoot each other cold, if so, the effect is not much better than the previous two battalions, because the Mengshan bandits occupy the position of attack, and they are stuck in the uncomfortable place of the Qing army, Mao, why didn't the Qing army occupy the ridge before?

There is no way about this, if you want to talk about the understanding of the terrain, none of the ten Yuan Shikai Xu Lie is powerful.

Therefore, after the two battalions went up to the position, they immediately launched a decisive charge in a burst of charges, and after hearing the charge, the two battalions on the flanks also launched a death-defying assault.

At a moment's notice, the position of the Mengshan Army was crumbling.

Suddenly, the Mengshan Army's position, which originally only had the sound of rifles, sounded with the sound of fierce electric racing guns! Moreover, this electric race gun is not one, but a dozen, oh my God, don't rush, come back quickly!

It's just that sober people are often outside the situation, and people who have already entered the game, how can they go back so easily? Therefore, in the roar of the heavy machine gun, I saw the Qing army fall to the ground one by one like wheat piles, some of them seemed tenacious, unwilling to fall, there was a popping sound from their bodies, at least a few 12.7 mm heavy machine gun bullets drilled into the body, and then what I saw was flesh and blood, and when it completely fell to the ground, the parts on the body seemed to be no longer so complete.

The charge of two battalions and a thousand men turned into a pool of blood under the sweep of 12 heavy machine guns. Of course, there must be some alive, but the living ones are also lying on the ground and don't dare to move, because they are already frightened!

On the flanks, the two battalions also launched a decisive charge, but the terrain on the flanks was more conducive to defense, and the attack distance of 60 could be as far as 2 kilometers and as close as 50 meters, and there were almost no dead ends. Therefore, the charge of the two battalions on the flank did not look as miserable as being strafed by heavy machine guns, but because the area of attack was wider, the number of Qing troops that could be hit by each shell must be more...... Obviously, these guys who rushed through the rain of bullets have lost confidence.

The lack of confidence on the part of these Qing troops shows that they have correctly judged the battlefield situation. Although they seem lucky, they are not much different from the soldiers who died in battle. Because at this time, the sharpshooters of the Mengshan Army can just use them to practice again. The most important thing is that the troops located on the high kan after that are no longer seventy or eighty people before, but more than three hundred. Immediately after the arrival of the regiment and the battalion, two companies were sent to support the flank positions.

To put it bluntly, this flank front is a pit, waiting for the Qing army to jump down.

"How so? How so? Yuan Shikai, who had only combat experience on the Korean Peninsula in the early years, was suddenly stunned by the battle situation in these two places. As a new army trained by him, and Yuan Shikai himself has absorbed a lot of regulations and regulations about the Rhine Army, how could his army be beaten so badly? Could it be that the bandits on the other side are more powerful than the armies of the great powers?

"My lord, do we need to find another way?" Wang Shizhen, who followed Yuan Shikai's footsteps, reminded loudly. Just now, Wang Shizhen also observed carefully, with the equipment of the bandits in Mengshan on the other side, even if the new army at this time is still relatively organized, and the absolute number of soldiers is quite large, but if it is really tough, it is estimated that there will not be a few left in the end.

"I wonder what's going on over there?" Although Yuan Shikai already had a plan to retreat in his heart, he still had some integrity.

"Let's lean on the big handsome." Wang Shizhen proposed.

"Okay, immediately pull out and go to the rescue of the handsome!" Yuan Shikai suddenly thought of a good idea.

However, it seems that Yuan Shikai came to his senses a little later, and just when Yuan Shikai decided to withdraw from the battle, the reconnaissance battalion suddenly came out of a small road.

Xu Lie personally took two battalions, only one battalion of the guard battalion was used to attract Qing firepower, and the reconnaissance battalion left with the help of the terrain before reaching the position.

The terrain in this area is more familiar to the Mengshan army than the Qing army. Because considering the possible future battles, Wang Qinian had already sent intelligence officers to pretend to be merchants to go to the villages and draw a map of the Shandong Peninsula.

The reconnaissance battalion suddenly rushed out and engaged the Qing army in close combat, which was equivalent to the last straw that broke the camel's back. This may be an exaggeration, but the sudden appearance of the reconnaissance battalion made Yuan Shikai's orderly retreat suddenly turn into a rout.

"Bang, bang, bang......" The gunfire of the reconnaissance battalion was different.

Because when the reconnaissance battalion fought in close combat, it used the famous box cannon and barge gun, which also came from the Rhine pistol, and was the first automatic pistol in history.

In this era, the biggest advantage of box guns is not automatic shooting, but the ammunition load of its magazine, barge guns, twenty rounds, twenty rounds For a well-trained soldier, even if he is unlucky, he can take out two or three people. A reconnaissance battalion of 500 people, an average of two or three people killed per person is a god horse concept? Of course, being killed is only a consequence, and for the living Qing soldiers, the barrage formed by hundreds of automatic pistols is what really makes them frightened.

"Quick, my lord, the enemy's fire is too fierce!" Wang Shizhen shouted as he ran, and at the same time signaled Yuan Shikai's guards to immediately help Lord Yuan onto the horse, at this time, it was really time to race against time.

Yuan Shikai originally wanted to wait a little longer to see how many soldiers he could gather, but a shell exploded twenty meters away, so he had to quickly step on his war horse, and then more than a hundred people ran towards Nie Shicheng's position in the middle army.

As soon as Lord Yuan started running, the soldiers of the New Army, who were still insisting on resisting the attack of the Mengshan Army, also retreated back one after another in squads and platoons. Judging from this scene, it seems that the soldiers of the Forces nouvelles were also trained to retreat. Whether or not an orderly retreat can be achieved on the battlefield is actually one of the elements of an army's combat strength.
