Chapter 446: Disguised Counterattack
The follow-up British troops have already passed through the middle ground, and most of them have rushed to the front line to participate in the battle, so the British troops behind are almost gone, if it were not for the dozens of damned wounded who have not yet been rescued, it can be said that the British army belt in the rear is uninhabited,
More than 6,000 squadrons, after outflanking the division, left 1,000 people to monitor the position of the coastline and the Sand Point Battery, and the remaining more than 5,000 troops immediately copied to the back of the British army.
Along the way, many British wounded were trampled by the Chinese **, surrendered work, did not surrender, killed, because of the fierce fighting, because the Chinese were killed by the British ** team in Guangzhou after the robbery and massacre, extremely hated the British, so, although there was a discipline that did not allow the torture of prisoners of war, it still did not play a big role,
"Kill, kill." Several Chinese soldiers stabbed a British ** officer who was wielding a saber into a hornet's nest,
Behind the British formation, the emptiness was abnormal, giving the squadron a huge opportunity to attack the attack, they advanced quickly, and soon, they copied the back of the British ** team and surrounded it.
At this time, the fierce artillery fire of the squadron had blown up the British ** team into a mess, with countless casualties, and the British ** officer, who knew that the situation was not good, had to accept this reality and decisively ordered a retreat.
Part of the British army resisted, and part of them carried the wounded and sick to retreat, but the retreat route behind had been cut off, where else to retreat,
The huge British fleet, listening to the guns and cannons on land in the bay, but there was nothing to do, and he couldn't help at all, General Nelson's face was extremely melancholy, he didn't know what the outcome of the battle was, but he knew that the process of the battle was quite fierce, and many of the cannons were not British artillery,
"What kind of cannon do the Chinese use, and why is the sound so strange."
Of course, the British are not equipped with mortars, and they don't know about this thing at all.
After the British army was surrounded, the situation immediately became difficult, and the front was bombarded and collapsed, retreated backwards, and encountered a strong interception by the squadron.
It was a bitter battle of encirclement and annihilation, the battle lasted for half an hour, and then, it was over,
The British ** team here was all wiped out,
More than 3,500 British ** troops, surrounded, like pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, were ruthlessly slaughtered by the squadron, in fact, the artillery bombardment, raindrops, the British casualty rate rose to 70 percent, and the shooting of the Chinese **, grenade bombing, made the British army even more frightened.
More than 400 undead British soldiers, mostly scarred and covered in blood, discarded their weapons and surrendered.
"Spare your life, forgive, please allow us to surrender." The British said in a few stiff Chinese sentences,
"Surrender, stand still, don't move." "Bring the money, and your gun." This is also what the British say,
The Chinese officers and soldiers in charge of the capture sometimes have to go crazy, because the British devils who are raising their hands to surrender and kowtowing can actually talk like this,
Later, the squadron passed the interrogation and learned that ordinary British devils learned a few words of Chinese, the purpose of which was to communicate when capturing Chinese people or robbing Chinese people after the victory of the battle.
The mountain artillery of the British ** team also has a certain threat to the ** squadron, but the threat is not big, because, at the beginning of the bombardment of the mountain artillery, the ** squadron immediately took this place as a key target, and the mortar fire rate of the ** squadron was seven times that of the British mountain artillery.
After the battle, part of the squadron cleaned up the battlefield, and the other part returned to the coastline, and the remaining troops moved forward, in order to avoid the British fleet firepower, dispersed the action, and reached the Shajiao Battery, which can be seen clearly with the naked eye, the British fleet is still stupidly waiting for its own army.
After Qiu Yuancai heard about the situation, he immediately had a plan, "Quick, peel off all the military uniforms of the British devils to Lao Tzu." ”
"General, what are you going to do?" Many officers and soldiers were puzzled, didn't this kill the dog, strip naked, do you want to pull these scourges to the city of Guangzhou to violent corpses, in the twilight of spring, the weather is getting hot, these stinky meat......
"If you don't understand, don't ask, execute it immediately." Qiu Yuancai will also have a few very fashionable military orders,
The Chinese army immediately executed, after all, General Qiu Yuancai, but a veteran, or the commander of the Guangdong Military Region, soon, on the battlefield, stripped thousands of British soldiers.
When the captured British officers and soldiers saw that these squadrons were so barbaric, they were afraid that they would have any bad thoughts about the white and tender bodies of the British, and they were all frightened, afraid that these strange barbarians would do something to them.
"Quick, you guys, take off your clothes too." The squadron shouted,
"This, sir, us." The British soldiers who spoke in English, or the soldiers in India, really couldn't communicate with the squadron, so they could only roll their eyes.
The Chinese soldiers did not hesitate to go up and strip off the military uniforms of these people, because the clothes of these living people were quite clean and did not have too much blood.
A team of 1,000 people was formed, the white-skinned and red-hearted squadron, and they were required to carry all the mortars to the coastline, and they also took the military flag that the British had just handed over, and also lifted some of the British corpses, very much like that,
"Let's go, follow Lao Tzu to see the British Maozi's warship." Qiu Yuancai said with a smile,
The strange behavior of the squadron is also very logical, this British puppet army soon returned, and then, the squadron on the coastline that received the order quickly fled, and the "British" troops, bravely pursued, and then, the squadron was gone, and the "British" army, with a large number of corpses, rushed to the coastline, waving small hands and military flags, that means, they won the victory and wanted to return to the fleet,
General Nelson finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Alright, our army is back. ”
"Ah, yes, good, they're back."
The British naval officers and men, who were stunned by the strange sound of mortars, were finally relieved,
The fleet quickly approached the shoreline, and when it reached the limit of the waterline, the gunboats leaned against the shore,
The British troops continued to advance, and waited a lot on the beach, and the British gunboat crews, one after another, came out to help transport the sick and wounded,
"Yes, you guys." The British ** officers who came down from the gunboat suddenly found that these returning British ** teams were all dejected, as if they had lost the battle, they all pulled their hats very low, and some soldiers covered their faces with their hands, as if they were crying, or stupid,
Suddenly, these British ** teams roared like thunder, rushed over, and intercepted and captured more than a dozen British officers and soldiers who had come down from more than a dozen gunboats.
The British officers and men of the navy rose up to resist, but they were outnumbered, and some of them did not even bring weapons, so they were cut by knives or guns, and the whole army was pitifully annihilated, and only about 20 British soldiers, who were very clever and undisciplined, raised their hands and surrendered, and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"What's going on, what's wrong with them, how do they beat their own people." Many officers and men of the British Navy fleet were stunned for a moment, greeting God's old mother,
The squadron on the beach immediately bombarded the British Navy with mortars, this kind of mortar, the firing range is more than 2,700 meters, even if it is because of the difference in gunpowder, the range of the strike is much shorter, to hit the British fleet in the bay, it is still more than enough,
It's not an armor-piercing shell, so it can't sink the behemoth's British ** ship with a hole, but that kind of flowering shell, with its magical firing speed, really shocked all the British.
