Chapter 249: Catch Lao Tzu back
The darkness of the night and the noise of the wind blowing on the trees and grass brought good cover to the Liaodong cavalry that was advancing rapidly, and even so, Liu Jun still led the cavalry to a place three kilometers away from the Russian position and stopped the troops.
Zhong Lin lit a torch, looked at the map, and took a few steps in front of Liu Jun, who was looking in that direction: "Head, is this still three kilometers away?" ”
Of course, Liu Jun knew that it was only three kilometers, and he originally wanted to rush forward two kilometers, but when he came here, he felt that the terrain here was relatively flat, and there were no high mountains around, even if there were, it was only twenty or thirty meters.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense, I know it's still far away." Again, determine the approximate location. Only then did he turn his head and look at Zhang Qing: "Put out the torches, let the mortar team take the artillery team and set off with me, you wait here for the rear team, and when you see the cannon and the fire, immediately lead the cavalry to charge." ”
After speaking, Liu Jun stretched out his hand to greet Zhong Lin, who was still there in a daze: "Go"
On a three-kilometer journey, more than 200 people walked for nearly an hour.
Leading the way was a Korean scout of the Tenth Army, this person probably had never seen a big man since he was a child, and now he suddenly found that the handsome man who was a god-like existence in his parents' hearts followed him closely and was approachable, and his heart was excited and surprised.
At the beginning of a mountain pass, the nineteen-year-old soldier pointed to the mountain bag that was not tall on the opposite side: "Dashuai......... There were enemy fortifications. ”
Liu Jun nodded, this pitch black is really hard to observe.
It seems that it will only have to wait until dawn. Liu Jun shook his head helplessly.
"Marshal, the opposite side is about 500 meters away from here, and in the middle are two mountain bags more than 50 meters high, on which the enemy has piled up a lot of sandbags, on which there are six Green guns and five field guns......"
I grass, Liu Jun's eyes widened, this soldier is a good seedling, he actually saw his doubts and said the surrounding situation.
"Are you sure?" Liu Jun showed a puzzled look.
"Sure."
Well, seeing this determined look, Liu Jun has no reason not to believe it.
Let the mortars be divided into three artillery groups, two for solving enemy machine guns and field guns, and one for maneuvering, and the time will be set for dawn.
At that time, the artillery groups were able to quickly adjust the gun markings according to the position and distance. And the other party is also the most paralyzed.
As time passed, the sky gradually faded its black coat, and the gray-white sky gradually revealed.
You can already see the situation on the other side, and as the scout said, the artillery positions on the opposite side are set up in two hills, blocking the road ahead. The only difference is that there are many tents on it, presumably where they rest.
Everything was quiet, except for a few sentries standing guard opposite each other, picking up their guns or sitting or squatting where they slept.
Hmph, with a cold snort, Liu Jun suddenly spit out the tender grass that passed the time and held it in his mouth. Only then did he viciously climb in front of a mortar and face Zhong Lin beside him: "Tell the brothers, launch an attack in five minutes." ”
"Bastards, Lao Tzu will send you to the western sky," with a loud shout, Liu Jun stuffed the cannonball in his hand into the barrel at once.
Bang bang bang, the characteristic light sound of the mortar.
The violent explosion, the blown dirt, and the soldiers who had not yet come back to their senses were suddenly blown into the sky.
The sound of the explosion and the rushing fire suddenly lit up Amaterasu, who had not yet fully dawned.
Zhang Qing, who had been waiting all night, saw the explosion and firelight, and his eggplant-like face just now was shining, and he suddenly turned over and got on his horse.
brush, the snow-white saber reflecting the cold light was suddenly held high in his hand.
"Brothers, the opportunity to make a contribution has come, give Lao Tzu a rush, chop up his Russian grandmother."
Kill...... The thunderous hooves of the horses ran, the earth trembled, and tens of thousands of cavalry suddenly swarmed from three directions to the place where the explosion occurred......
The big tent of the Chechen Khan, the earth-shattering explosion in the distance had already awakened the big sweat who was resting, and before he had time to put on his clothes, his uncle Wang rushed in: "Great Khan, let's go, the Liaodong army has come and the Russians can't stand it for long." ”
Run, only run, such an earth-shattering explosion has already frightened the Great Khan to the point that his face is pale, his limbs are weak, and the courage of the day to follow the Mongol emperor suddenly disappeared without a trace
Pack up some softness and call his own woman, who has no idea anymore, under the protection of hundreds of guards, he hurriedly went west, as for the emperor's envoys who are still in the tent behind, to hell.
Three miles away, it has become a sea of cavalry, and it is a one-sided cavalry slaughter.
Originally, there were indeed 10,000 disguised Mongolian troops stationed here, but the Qing army that entered Outer Mongolia from Gansu fought all the way, and the southern front was tight, and the commander of the Russian army had already led the main force of 10,000 people to leave here, and here, only 3,000 troops were left to cooperate with the Chechen Khan to resist the Qing army.
These were originally cavalry, and the horses were originally tied to the mountain bag behind, who knew that not long ago, a cannonball actually fell into the horse shed, which immediately blew up the horse shed, and thousands of military horses were suddenly frightened, and when the soldiers in the tent rushed out, the horses had already run halfway.
Rushing on the horse in a hurry, before he could calm down, the overwhelming Liaodong cavalry suddenly rushed over like a flood.
An unfair duel, more than 10,000 cavalry, besieging the Mongol rebels, who had only six or seven thousand men, and only a third of them got on horseback.
The end has already been decided, and the cavalry, without horses, becomes useless infantry, and the most offended.
The killing began, and the Liaodong army, which was surrounded on three sides, suddenly cut down the Mongolian rebels like chopping vegetables.
The Chechen Khan, who could not stand the stimulation, was suddenly defeated. Crazy ran to the Chechen Khan's tent.
The king of Chechnya guessed correctly, Liu Jun wanted to establish his authority and kill chickens to show the monkeys. Therefore, the Chechen Khan was inevitably slaughtered.
"The commander has an order, and all the people he encounters will be slaughtered."
The red-eyed Liaodong Army, which had been killed a long time ago, was suddenly out of control, and everywhere it went, it was like locusts, and there was no grass.
"Heads, that Chechen Khan of the ran away." Zhong Lin led a cavalry to quickly run to Liu Jun, who was riding on a horse under the protection of bodyguards.
Ran away, this time I came for you, if I don't get rid of you, how to deter other tribes.
"Go and get Lao Tzu back!" With a roar, Liu Jun let out a sky-high rage.
In one day, at least nearly 10,000 people were slaughtered, and less than 8,000 escaped.
In the dark night, the already ruined camp of the Chechen Khan, surrounded by bonfires lit by wooden stakes.
The Liaodong cavalry, which had been busy for a day, finally stopped the slaughter, and began to bury their heads in the corpse-strewn ruins to cook on the spot, and from time to time, groups of cavalry patrolling with torches in their hands would pass through them.
In the silence of the night, the burning trees crackled from time to time, and the pungent smell of burnt and blood filled the sky.
From time to time, there was no howl of despair and the wolves in the distance smelled the bloody howl, which made the whole black horror abnormal.
A relatively spacious flat ground, the surrounding corpses have long been cleaned up, and even so, the blood red around it is telling that this place was still a place of killing not long ago.
A large red fire lit up everything around him, and this was where Zhang Qing specially prepared for Liu Jun to rest.
This time the army was lightly armed, except for weapons, ammunition and food, and everything remained with the infantry.
Liu Jun is not the kind of person who is pretending to be exquisite, he casually found a place where there was no bloodstains, covered his head with a cloak, and lay on the ground to sleep, while the guards and bodyguards on the side observed everything with keen eyes. Especially Huo Yuanjia, the machete in his hand was tightly held in his hand, standing quietly beside Liu Jun. Observe everything. The sound of the rolling iron horse running came from a distance, and it suddenly woke up Liu Jun, who was sleeping, and lifted the cloak on his head, Liu Jun found that it was already dawn.
Rising from the ground, he opened his eyes and looked in the direction from which the voice had come, and he saw a man dressed in aristocratic garb tied to the horse's back.
Looking at the person's dress, Liu Jun knew that Zhong Lin chased the fleeing Da Khan and arrested him.
