Although the commander of the Qing army's horse team was dead, the cavalry who had already entered the state of sprinting could not have other ideas, but could only move forward bravely, and if they stopped, they would only be bumped into by their comrades' horses. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Han cavalry quickly and steadily ran out the five bullets in the rifle and put down the rifle, at this time there were only more than 1,000 horsemen left in the Qing army, and the remaining Qing cavalry was afraid, but they had to lower their heads and rush forward.

The Han cavalry, who had put down their rifles, had no intention of charging, but took out the revolver they carried with them and aimed at the remaining Qing cavalry.

If the commander of the Qing cavalry team who had died knew that the Han cavalry was fighting like this, he would not have charged the Han cavalry, but would have fled far away: you are too laid-back, the cavalry is to use a knife to slash, how can you bully us again with a rifle at a distance, and bully us with a pistol when you get close, it's really hard.

(In addition, in addition to the Mongolian cavalry and the former Manchurian cavalry who can ride and shoot, ordinary cavalry can't ride and shoot or have poor skills, so it's better to cut directly with a knife)

It's a pity that the commander of the Qing army horse team has been killed, and it is impossible to regret it, and his subordinates will soon come to accompany him, and he will not be lonely on the Huangquan Road.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

All the Qing cavalry that approached the Han cavalry line fifty meters fell under the muzzle of the revolver, and the speed of the Qing cavalry also decreased at this time because of the uncontrolled horses in front of them.

"Kill, one can't be spared." Dong Xiangfu commanded the knife and waved it forward, and more than 500 cavalry of the Han cavalry battalion raised their cavalry knives and rushed towards the Qing army.

"Kill!"

The voices of five hundred people converged into one, pressing down on the remaining Qing cavalry of the Qing army like a monstrous roar, and some timid cavalry actually fell off their horses under this roar.

"Run." The remaining Qing cavalry had lost the courage to continue fighting, and only thought about how they could escape.

The overall situation of the cavalry battle has been decided, but I don't know how much damage the subsequent pursuit will bring to the Han cavalry battalion.

Compared to the battlefield of the flanks and cavalry, the frontal battlefield was even more brutal, of course, and this was only for the Qing army.

The crowds of Qing troops frantically poured up, but they were swept down like wheat under the dozens of heavy machine guns of the Han army.

Suddenly, the battlefield turned into hell on earth, and the recruits who were busy carrying ammunition in the Han army position saw this terrifying scene, and immediately threw up with their stomachs, and a few Han veterans also vomited.

No one vomited on the Qing army's side, but seeing such a tragic scene, many people wanted to retreat or even run away, even the most elite Chu army, but with Yang Changjun's own soldiers, the retreating people were directly killed, and the Qing officers and soldiers could only continue to rush forward, and then continue to be killed by the heavy machine guns or rifles or mortars of the Han army.

It didn't take long for nearly 10,000 Qing troops to fall on the frontal battlefield and finally let the entire Qing army collapse, even if Yang Changjun's personal army killed many officers and soldiers and generals who wanted to escape, they couldn't stop the rout, and even several personal soldiers were killed by those officers and soldiers who wanted to escape.

"Advancing is death, retreating is also death, there is no hope of life in advance, there is still the possibility of living in retreat, whoever is Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will fight with whom."

"You actually want Lao Tzu to die, he/mom/you should get out of the way, otherwise Lao Tzu will cut you with a knife."

Under such circumstances, even Yang Changjun's personal army could not stop the retreating Qing army, and the Qing army was completely defeated.

Niu Dehou saw the retreat of the Qing army, and immediately ordered the Han army to pursue the whole line, and those who could catch it alive were caught alive, and those who could not be caught were shot to death.

"Expelle the Tartars and restore my Han family's rivers and mountains!"

"Those who surrender on their knees will not be killed!"

The Han army shouted slogans and swarmed down, and the Qing officers and soldiers who could not escape could only surrender on their knees.

"Defeated." Yang Changjun, who witnessed all this, only sighed.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Yang Changjun thought of more, if the strength of the "short-haired thieves" is so strong, then how powerful will the other four-way armies usher in the "short-haired thieves"?

If the other four-way armies are also defeated, then the Qing Dynasty will be over, Yang Changjun doesn't dare to think about it, how can Zuo Shuai (Zuo Zongtang), who is like a god, fail?

In fact, Yang Changjun was a little unconfident when he thought about this sentence, will Zuo Zongtang's first army be able to win in the face of Yang Changjun's enemy now?

Thinking of this, Yang Changjun burst into tears, pulled out his saber, and wanted to commit suicide, but was seen by the soldiers around Yang Changjun, and quickly grabbed the knife, and several other guards hugged Yang Changjun and prevented Yang Changjun from committing suicide.

"My lord, stay in Qingshan without fear of running out of firewood, and when we regroup, we will fight the short-haired thief again." A pro-soldier comforted.

"I'm old, and what else is there (can I say that?) Well, let me keep this old life and continue to serve the Qing Dynasty. ”

Seeing that Yang Changjun had no intention of dying, the pro-soldiers let go of Yang Changjun, and then Yang Changjun retreated to the rear with 100 pro-soldiers, and gathered the rout by the way.

At 8:23 a.m. on June 9, the Manchu Qing Third Route Army was defeated on all fronts, and the Second Brigade of the Han Army won the final victory under the leadership of the brigade commander Niu Dehou.

At the end of the battle, the 2nd Brigade of the Han Army rested on the spot after cleaning up the battlefield.

According to post-war statistics, the Qing army had a total of 40,000 troops on the third road, more than 12,500 people died, and more than 3,000 people were seriously injured (the seriously injured prisoners were abandoned by the Han army, and it was useless to save them without rescue, after all, people were already abolished, so only death awaited them), and more than 4,000 prisoners (it can only be said that the escape was really fast, some Qing officers and soldiers actually attacked their own people in order to escape for their own lives, the reason was just that others blocked their way to escape), nearly 2,000 war horses were captured, and the grain and grass seized were not counted, 1,100,000 taels of silver were seized (the salary of the Manchu Third Route Army, which could not be taken away when fleeing).

In addition, the 2nd Brigade of the Han Army suffered 57 casualties and 89 serious wounded (most of them were wounded while pursuing the enemy, especially the cavalry battalion, which suffered the greatest losses).

The second brigade of the Han army was only more than 5,000 people, facing the Qing army of 40,000 troops head-on, and the difference in the number of the two sides was eight times, but the final victory belonged to the Han army, which was the victory of the Chinese nation against the feudal rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it was also the victory of the new army against the old army.

This battle also had a huge impact on the two provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu, the easy victory of the Han army represented that the Manchu Qing was not indestructible, it was probably just a paper tiger, as long as he was brave enough to stab him, it was a victory, so that the two provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu rose back into turmoil, but were severely suppressed by the Manchu Qing who urgently needed to stabilize, these are all later words.
