At dawn, the soldiers of the Tang Army, who had rested all night, were in good spirits. [Full text reading. Xie Jinwu brushed his teeth with a toothbrush, very fast, the perennial army life created his such a mode of action, when he was still an officer of the national government army before the crossing, he could not be like this, after the crossing became a Tang officer, the Tang army has higher requirements for the discipline and initiative of the soldiers, the time from getting up to assembling is very short, and the movements of the soldiers have become extremely fast. As an officer, Xie Jinwu thinks that he wants to become an example of the soldiers under his command, so he is naturally the same as everyone else.
Liu Zhiyu came over with a small notebook and said to Xie Jinwu: "The news from the capital, the Qing army has whitewashed their military exploits again, we took the initiative to withdraw from the contact department last night, and the Qing army said that it was their own victory, and it seems that His Majesty the emperor, who was not very smart, also believed it, and gave an order to his army to annihilate our first brigade." ”
Xie Jinwu rinsed his mouth, then coughed twice and said, "Don't laugh." Anything else? ”
Liu Zhiyu smiled and said, "The Xiongwei Regiment has arrived at our periphery, and our troops have been replenished. ”
Xie Jinwu nodded: "It's almost this time." ”
"In addition, at three o'clock in the morning last night, the Dragon Tooth Regiment had an exchange of fire with the North China New Army west of Langfang, and it was judged that it should be the North China New Army that was ordered by Jiaqing to take the initiative to attack, and the scale was about 3,000 troops in a brigade, and it was defeated by the Dragon Tooth Regiment as soon as the exchange of fire was made. The Dragon's Tooth Regiment is expected to arrive at Nanyuan in three hours and join up with our hussars. ”
The First Brigade of the Datang Army stationed in North China is a brigade-level unit with a large establishment, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a division in fact. It has brigade direct troops, three mechanized infantry regiments of Longxiang, Longya and Xiongwei, a cavalry regiment of the Hussar Regiment, and an artillery regiment of the Fire Arrow Regiment, with a total scale of more than 10,000 people, which is larger than the scale of the Qing military town.
Xie Jinwu wiped his face with a towel, adjusted his military uniform, and said: "After breakfast, we will launch an offensive against the Qing army, and today we will basically wipe out the resistance forces outside the capital." ”
"Oh no, we're doing it." Xie Jinwu said with a little sly.
An hour later, the Tang Army's Longxiang Regiment moved, in fact, Xie Jinwu withdrew his troops from the contact department last night, and he did not withdraw far at all, but although the Qing Army claimed to expel the Tang Army, in fact, it did not follow the pursuing Tang Army at all, and even did not place any defensive force in the position of twenty miles around the Tang Army.
First of all, the self-propelled artillery units of the Don Army again established their own artillery positions and fired at the outermost Praetorian Guards. The Praetorian Guards, who had not been relieved from the panic of last night, were bombarded again and began to retreat backwards in confusion, and at this time, the armored battalion of the Longxiang Regiment drove over with two infantry battalions. The cross-country speed of thirty or forty kilometers per hour is definitely faster than that of two legs, and it is not the first time that the Tang Army has verified the coordinated operation of infantry and artillery in real combat. After the artillery ploughed the ground, the mechanized infantry assaulted, and this time for the first time the Don Army had tanks involved in the actual battle.
With fierce straight firepower and stronger protection, tanks have become a better weapon to cover the infantry, and the Praetorian Guards are not completely, they still set up some machine gun fortifications and use coffee mill machine guns purchased from Datang to defend. It's just that the machine gun bullets with limited power are impossible to penetrate the armor of infantry tanks and tanks, and the murderous Datang armored soldiers rotated the turret, and the shells from the 85mm tank gun directly knocked out the machine gun fortifications.
It's like a group of monsters chasing sheep, and the mechanized infantry of the Tang Army can't describe the Praetorian Guard's combat as torture and killing. The Praetorian Guards could not raise the will to counterattack the Tang army at all, and could only be driven away by the Tang army.
In a corner of the battlefield, Ban Qi led a horse and pulled Sai Chong A anxiously: "My lord, let's go, let's go, the Tang Army's iron car is coming, and if they catch up, you won't be able to go!" ”
Sai Chong's eyes were red, "Lao Tzu doesn't go, Lao Tzu doesn't go, Lao Tzu wants to fight with the Tang people!" ”
Ban Qi shouted: "I can't fight, I can't fight!" ”
A cannonball smashed at this time, and two thousand meters away, a tank had already appeared accompanied by a group of infantry, and the shell exploded at a position of about ten meters from Saichonga, blowing away several panicked Praetorian Guard soldiers, and a piece of shrapnel flew over, just learning half of the head of Ban Qi standing beside him, and by the way, the war horse was also cut to death.
Saichong Arden became calm, fear overcame everything, and such an enemy was impossible to defeat. Sai Chong'a began to understand that the imperial court should not try to oppose the Tang people from the beginning, and the gap in strength was too great.
The commander-in-chief of the Praetorian Guard, Delentai, was also completely shocked at this time, although he expected that there was indeed a certain gap between his Praetorian Guard and the Tang Army, but the Tang Army really fought and was as fierce as a tiger, and his soldiers were not even a dog. In the face of the surprise Tang Army's infantry coordination, Delentai was also red-eyed, and ordered the artillery of the Praetorian Guard to fire at the Tang Army, ignoring the fact that more of the remnants of the Janissaries were defeated on the battlefield.
Although the sudden Qing artillery was not accurate, a shell still exploded next to a Tang army's infantry chariot, killing and wounding two Tang soldiers and destroying the tracks of the infantry chariot, but this was the only result of the Qing artillery. The actions of the Qing artillery infuriated the proud Tang artillery, and the self-propelled artillery units that followed the assault of the mechanized infantry immediately opened fire on the Qing artillery.
The entire Qing Forbidden Guard Army's troops in the second town were killed by more than 1,000 Tang troops, and after the fight, the Qing army also knew that they couldn't run with wheels, so they simply threw away the weapons in their hands and knelt down with their heads in their hands and surrendered. And Delentai didn't dare to send troops from other Praetorian Guards to come to the aid at this time, obviously even if he transferred a large army, it would be impossible to defeat the mechanized infantry of the wolf-like dragon regiment. The fear brought to him by those iron chariots was too great, and Delentai was originally able to concentrate the not a small number of artillery in his hands to inflict casualties on the Tang army, but he was not decisive enough, and he did not arrange it reasonably, and the covering level of the Tang artillery was very high, so he had no room to play, and could only watch his troops being easily defeated.
The battle lasted just over an hour, with more than 3,000 casualties among the soldiers of the Second Town, and more than 3,000 surrendered to the Tang army, who managed to reach the east gate of Beijing, but Xie Jinwu did not give the order to storm the city. The Tang army began to swagger and clean up the battlefield under the fearful gaze of the Qing army on the city wall.
