Chapter 603: A Great Victory
Although it was night, He Tengjiao could still feel the situation on the battlefield, which was the genius intuition that an excellent general had on the battlefield!
Ran away?
A smile appeared at the corner of He Tengjiao's mouth, it was not so easy to run!
"Zhang Hexiang, lead your two cavalry battalions, give me to continue to pursue the Twist army that broke through, and the remaining cavalry will give me all the best to besiege and kill all the remaining people!"
He Tengjiao quickly gave his order, Zhang Hexiang agreed, and chased in the direction of Du He's escape, where can Du He's two legs run past the four legs of the cavalry, and it didn't take long for Zhang Hexiang's cavalry to catch up from behind, the cavalry continued to shoot, and when they chased the back of the Twist Army, the cavalry carried their rifles behind their backs, began to wave the saber in their hands, and beckoned to the head of the Twist Army!
Du He led more than 2,000 people of the twist army was completely stunned, there was no intention of fighting, in the face of the cavalry's saber, and even some people have forgotten to resist, one by one the heads were cut off by the cavalry, miserable, Du He was angry and anxious, even if his own strength is far superior to the cavalry, it is still not the opponent of others, the cavalry of Baoding Town is like a rainbow, and then the impact of the war horse, coming and going, like chopping melons and vegetables, the twist army will only hug the head of the rat, dodging the attack of the cavalry, as for fighting back, that dare to fight back? There is no power to parry at all!
Just when Du He was anxious to wipe his neck, in the distance, Zhang Zongyu's cavalry galloped over, and Zhang Zongyu took the lead and rushed towards Zhang Hexiang's cavalry!
Zhang Hexiang was shocked, cavalry, a large number of cavalry, it must be that Zhang Zongyu led the main force of the cavalry to kill back, at this time, he only has two battalions of troops, less than a thousand people, and the other party is not the best strategy, once the cavalry of the twist army is approaching, he will not be trapped to death!
"Order, the cavalry retreats!"
The two battalions of cavalry in Baoding Town retreated from the pursuit, and while shooting, they retreated to the rear to protect their formation.
At this time, Zhang Zongyu had already rushed over, Zhang Zongyu brought over 5,000 cavalry, and almost all the cavalry belongings were brought out, just to give Du He out!
"Du He, Du He!"
Zhang Zongyu shouted.
"King Liang, King Liang, I'm here, I'm here!"
Seeing his cavalry coming to help, Du He was so excited that he almost cried, finally, King Liang hadn't forgotten himself.
The horses of the two rushed together, Zhang Zongyu was ashamed, and said: "Du He, thank you for your hard work, this time I patronized and broke through with the cavalry, but I left you aside, I am really confused, how about it, how many of our infantry are there now?" ”
Du He said astringently: "King Liang, I only rushed out with more than 2,000 people, there was a fierce battle just now, and there were hundreds of brothers killed and wounded, and there were only less than 2,000 left, and our main infantry force was surrounded by the Qing demons in the middle, and we couldn't rush out at all......"
Zhang Zongyu's heart jumped, with a strength of more than 10,000 people, only more than 2,000 people rushed out, doesn't that mean that the remaining eight or nine thousand people have to be explained?
"The cavalry assembled, continue to assault me, and we must rescue the brethren!"
Zhang Zongyu's eyes were on fire, and he tried to attack the encirclement arranged by the soldiers of Baoding Town again!
"King Liang, no!"
Du He hurriedly stopped: "King Liang, now Baoding Town is like a rainbow, and the combat power is extremely strong, if we continue to attack, I am afraid that not only will we not be able to save the brothers who are under siege, but even the cavalry will have to go in, quickly withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops, and save the strength is the best policy!" ”
"Is it true that thousands of our brethren will not be left alone?"
Zhang Zongyu was full of unwillingness, thousands of brothers, just watching being cleaned up by the Qing Demon, who would give up in their hearts?
"King Liang ......"
Du He said astringently: "The overall situation is important, thousands of infantry have been sacrificed, we can recruit again, but if our main cavalry force is all killed here, then the Twist Army will really not be far from destruction......"
Zhang Zongyu was shocked, yes, the infantry is easy to recruit, but the cavalry is trained, but it is difficult, there is no more than a year to train, if you want to cultivate a mature cavalry, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky, especially the shortage of war horses, the price is super high, the twist army does not have so much financial resources, and there is no limit to the purchase of war horses!
"Alas!"
Zhang Zongyu waved the whip in his palm fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops immediately!" ”
Five thousand cavalry protected two thousand infantry and slowly retreated to the southeast, behind, Zhang Hexiang faced five thousand cavalry, and easily did not dare to pursue, after all, the cavalry of the Twist Army was too strong, and he had no certainty of victory, and he would add casualties in vain, but he couldn't do it, and the lives of the soldiers in Baoding Town were very expensive!
However, if you don't attack the cavalry of the Twist Army, there are still battles to be fought in the back, but there are still thousands of bandit infantry in your own encirclement, so let's clean them up first!
Zhang Hexiang led two battalions of cavalry to turn around and kill back, at this time, the cavalry surrounded in the middle of the Twist infantry, has already been killed, in the face of the momentum of the cavalry and the periphery of the Baoding Town infantry, the Twist Army can not break out of the encirclement at all, can only be under the siege, step by step to perish.
After holding out for less than an hour, the twisters could no longer hold on, and one by one the twisters were full of despair, and began to throw the knives and guns in their hands on the ground, lying on the ground to express surrender.
With the lead, the other twisting armies are also moving very fast, at this time, life is important, it is simply in a desperate situation, there is no hope of survival, can only surrender, surrender, maybe there is a glimmer of life!
Thousands of cavalry in Baoding Town continued to coil, the war horses kept neighing, and the infantry rushed up one by one, began to collect the weapons of the Twist Army, lined up the Twist Army one by one, and escorted them back to their positions.
At this time, Guo Ye is still standing on the position, the cold wind is biting, now the midwinter has just passed, there are still many days before the spring flowers bloom, but Guo Ye's heart is boiling, with the elite of 12,000 people, in just one day, he defeated the army of more than 40,000 troops of the Twist Army and the Taiping Army, and defeated the other party, although there are a large number of recruits in Baoding Town, but under the First World War, all the new troops have been sharpened, nothing is better than a big victory, more can sharpen the new army, what they lack is not endurance, not technology, but absolute self-confidence shown in the war!
Endurance can be exercised, skills and tactics can also be honed, only self-confidence is absolutely indispensable to the army, this is the source of courage and murderous spirit of an iron-blooded hero!
