Chapter 149: Bloody Battle of the Twin Bridges (2)

When the explosion sounded, Gao Qi, who was in charge of the detonation, had already run to a position more than 100 meters away about 200 meters, and his body was still swept up by the huge shock wave, and he fell straight into the Tonghui River!

At this time, Gao Qi only had exclamation in his mind, I will drop a day, what kind of thing did Lord Junmen give himself! Such a great power, forty zhang away, he was still swept away!

As for the double bridge, now at the northern end of the double bridge, it has been broken from it, and the huge explosion blew out a gap three or four meters wide in the stone hole bridge, and the stones flew wildly, and the French troops on the bridge suffered heavy casualties!

Hundreds of people were directly injured in the middle of the sky, and those who were a little farther away were also swept straight into the Tonghui River by the violent explosion!

With just one explosion, the Anglo-French army suffered more than four hundred casualties! Saxton, who had just walked to the other side of the Tonghui River, was stupefied by the violent explosion. What the hell is going on!

All the officers and men of the Anglo-French army, not one of them was not shocked and inexplicable, fear, fear has enveloped all the Anglo-French troops!

In the distance, Guo Ye can see clearly through the telescope! The explosion succeeded!

Guo Ye was overjoyed, now the Anglo-French army has been successfully cut into two ends, there are nearly 10,000 people on the south bank of the Tonghui River and on the bridge, and on the north bank of the Tonghui River, there is a French infantry regiment left, as well as two artillery battalions, two artillery batteries, almost all the artillery of the British and French forces has been left on the north bank of the Tonghui River, this is the moment, the best moment!

"Order, all cavalry charge! Rush! Give me the foreign devils who encircled and annihilated the north shore in one fell swoop! ”

Guo Ye shouted, urged the war horse, and killed it first!

Three thousand cavalry killed the British and French forces, hundreds of meters away, the cavalry arrived in the blink of an eye, the current British and French troops are still in chaos, the huge explosion has completely disrupted their thinking, I don't know what to do!

By the time they could react, the cavalry led by Guo Ye had already swooped towards the British and French forces from two directions!

Clemenceau, the commander of the French infantry regiment, was in a hurry, I rubbed it, there were at least two or three thousand cavalry, and how could his own infantry of only more than a thousand people be able to withstand the attack of others?

However, if you don't fight, you can't do it, all the artillery of the army is concentrated here, and once you are defeated, then all the artillery will be finished!

Clemenceau shouted: "All the infantry regiments are ready to fight, protect the artillery!" ”

One by one, the French soldiers were still in a daze, and they didn't react at all, Clemenceau was so angry that he took out the pistol on his waist, shot a few shots at the sky, and shouted: "******, are you stupid, respond immediately, respond to the battle, quickly stop the cavalry attack!" ”

At this time, the soldiers of the army reacted, and they began to shoot one by one, but at this time, they were shooting, but it was too late, more than 3,000 cavalry under Guo Ye, almost everyone had a rifle, and the firepower was not weak, and they were shooting at the French army one by one, and the war horses under their crotches were rushing towards the river crazily!

In an instant, three thousand cavalry had already rushed into the position and launched a large-scale massacre of the artillery!

Saxton was shocked, his face changed drastically, and now he was ****** miserable! The main infantry force of the British and French forces has already crossed the Tonghui River, and the entire double bridge, which is no more than five or six meters wide, only allows a dozen or so people to shoot side by side, how can it play a role? As for the Anglo-French forces on the riverbank, they are now at least five or six hundred meters away from the north bank, which has exceeded the effective range of most rifles, and it will not work at all! As for the other bridges, the closest places here are more than ten miles away, and if you want to detour, you can't do it at all!

Saxton's eyes were about to split, I drop artillery, Lao Tzu's artillery is still on the other side!

However, in a hurry, the soldiers on the other side of the river can't use any strength!

Saxton roared: "Order, the third regiment of the British army immediately go down to the river, cross the Tonghui River to participate in the battle, and be sure to kill the cavalry of the Qing army for me!" ”

However, even if you swim to the other side, not to mention that the water is turbulent now, even if the wind and waves are calm, the rifle and bullets in your hand must not be used! You can only rely on the bayonet in your hand to fight with the cavalry, this is also a helpless thing, even if you fight the bayonet, you must repel the cavalry, otherwise, the artillery is afraid that there will be no one left!

Now Saxton regrets that he has the intention of committing suicide, and he knew this, and he said that he would not order the Royal Cavalry Regiment to chase and kill the small group of cavalry of the Qing army!

However, it's too late to say anything at this time!

The cavalry of the Qing army will not give the British and French troops the slightest room to escape!

One by one, the cavalry rushed into the position of the British and French forces, and the sabers in their hands shone with a compelling cold light, constantly slashing towards the British and French forces.

The sword light Huohuo, the war horse neighed, the Qing cavalry under the leadership of Guo Ye had already played a momentum, brave and brave, on the position, a terrible howl continued to sound, the British and French troops were killed scattered and fled, even the elite French infantry, absolutely could not resist the Qing cavalry with rifles!

In the blink of an eye, the Anglo-French casualties exceeded a thousand! Caught off guard, completely caught off guard, Guo Ye has used this kind of raid tactic to the extreme! Moreover, before he started, Guo Ye had already explained that the priority killing target was the unarmed artillery, once these people launched the might, they were even more powerful than the cavalry, but in hand-to-hand combat, they were a group of lambs to be slaughtered! Let me go of the slaughter!

Saxton watched the Qing cavalry on the other side wreak havoc on the position, wantonly trampling on the soldiers of the British and French forces, there was no way, there was no way to save it, four hundred meters of the river, the British army was wearing military uniforms and holding weapons, even if they wanted to swim over, it would take nearly half an hour, where was it so easy?

In half an hour, I'm afraid that the Qing cavalry has already packed up an infantry regiment and two artillery battalions of the British and French forces on the other side, right?

However, this time the French infantry regiment is really powerful, in order to protect the artillery battalion, desperately moving forward, constantly preventing the cavalry from attacking, even if the cavalry is powerful, it is not so easy to clean up all the infantry regiments!

Half an hour, and soon it will pass!

Under the frantic slaughter of the cavalry of the Qing army, the British and French troops killed more than 800 people, seriously wounded 600 people, and some people were killed by the cavalry, and there were less than 1,000 people who could persist in the battle!

At this critical juncture, the British army began to cross the Tonghui River and launched an attack on the Qing army!
