The Confederate reinforcements and the rangers were only five or six miles apart, but they were held up by Chen Hai and Xin Fengxiang, and the two fists were always difficult to put together, even if the rangers and reinforcements used all their strength, they could not break through the opponent's defense, and could only sigh.

The Confederate army didn't have anything, it really couldn't rush over, so at least there was no problem with self-preservation, and Edgar still had confidence this time.

But the rangers can't do it, they have been fighting fiercely for four or five hours in a row, the rangers not only can't break through the defense line deployed by Chen Hai, but they have lost their troops, and the six thousand cavalry are now only four thousand people who can keep fighting, and the huge casualties make the rangers show fear for the first time, the federal army in front of them is too powerful, it is so powerful that it is difficult for the rangers to bear!

Morton was so angry that he couldn't rush over, he just couldn't rush over, but what to do? Although it also caused huge pressure on the federal army, the federal army suffered a lot of casualties, but compared to the cavalry, life was much better, Chen Hai still commanded the battle without hurry, his face did not change, and his heart was calm, like a veteran general who was used to seeing big scenes on the battlefield.

With the stalemate of the battle situation, the passage of time, the situation became more and more unfavorable for the Rangers, at this time, the Federation Army behind had begun to catch up, although their two legs were not as fast as the Rangers' four legs, but four hours was enough time for the Federation infantry to catch up from behind.

The first to arrive was a Union brigade on the west side, and as soon as they reached the rear of the Rangers' flank, the brigade commander Hilton immediately ordered the artillery battalion to start preparing for firing. Nearly twenty guns were quickly ready for the attack. The red flag in the hands of the signalmen. One cannon after another let out an astonishing roar, and dozens of shells fell on the cavalry one after another.

Boom Boom!

The explosion continued to sound on the position of the rangers, beating the rangers bitterly, the federal army in front was powerful enough, and now the federal army behind has also caught up, this is really enough for the rangers to drink a pot!

Moulton's heart sank, and he was at the hands of the enemy, damn it. Why haven't the rescuers arrived in the direction of Loudoun County yet? If you don't come again, Lao Tzu will be wiped out!

"Order, the 4th Regiment turned around, launched a surprise attack on the Federation Army, and put their artillery positions on me!"

Morton made a decision immediately, clearly realizing that he had to kill the artillery positions behind him, so that he could calmly launch another assault towards Chen Hai's position.

The Fourth Regiment, under the leadership of Conlifen, made a U-turn and charged straight at the Federation Army behind them.

At this time, the brigade commander of the Federation Army, Hilton, was still complacent because he had taken advantage, and now the Rangers were attacking Guo Ye's army with all their might. I'm just picking up cheap, this cannon is so ****** cool!

Didn't think of it. Retribution came so quickly, although a brigade of Hilton was nearly 5,000 people, but it had not been deployed at all, but the artillery was the first to start, and now the strength of a regiment of rangers was roaring, and the distance was only about two or three miles, so it could be said that it was coming in an instant.

Hilton was stunned, and then shouted: "Order, all troops immediately open fire to stop the Rangers from attacking!" ”

It's just that now in the organization, it is obviously too late, completely unprepared for the federal army, lack of sufficient adaptability, at this time, the difference in the ability of the officers is revealed, Chen Hai of the second brigade and the regiment commander and battalion commander below can be independent, on the battlefield, to make a quick response to the battle, but the federal army absolutely can't do it, it can't do it at all, and when the federal army starts shooting, the cavalry is less than two hundred meters away from the federal army!

Two hundred meters, that's just around the corner!

A cavalry regiment went straight into the position of the Federal Army, and the strength of a brigade of the Federal Army was instantly blown up by a cavalry regiment, and the rangers, who were fed up with the spurs, were like crazy, brandishing their sabers as if they were chopping melons and vegetables, and a cavalry battalion rushed straight to the artillery position, and went down to the artillery position!

One of Hilton's brigades reached the point of blood mold, and in the blink of an eye, paid the price of blood, and was beaten to pieces by the cavalry regiment!

In the distance, Chen Hai watched carefully through the telescope!

"I'm rubbing! What a bunch of shit! It's so useless! ”

Chen Hai was depressed, what a problem, Lao Tzu didn't have artillery, he faced a cavalry brigade alone, and he persisted in fighting for four hours, and the casualties paid were not as great as the casualties paid by the first one of your brigades. Damn it!

Hilton was even more depressed, after all, the dead and wounded were all his brothers, but now that the cavalry is raging, at this time, one of his brigades is all in chaos, and it is very difficult to reorganize the attack!

Fortunately, at this time, the Federation Army in the northeast also arrived at the same time, and as soon as the 21st Brigade arrived, they saw the scene of Hilton's army being **** by other rangers, which was too miserable.

The 21st Brigade Commander Dagama's face turned red with anger, shame, how long have you been up at Hilton? was actually approached by other cavalry in the wilderness, are your artillery and muskets ****?

But complaining is complaining, after all, their own people are their own people, da Gama gave an order, a regiment of infantry began to press up, shooting at the cavalry continuously, under the pressure of the 21st Brigade, the 4th Cavalry Regiment gradually lost its original advantage, had to retreat towards the main force.

Hilton looked at his position and wanted to cry without tears, in less than half an hour, the casualties had exceeded 1,000 people, a loss, a loss of blood!

"Hilton, are you a fool? How did you let the cavalry charge your position so easily? ”

Vasco da Gama roared angrily.

Hilton replied angrily, "What the hell do you have the face to say? We're the same distance, but Lao Tzu arrived twenty minutes earlier than you! If you arrive with Lao Tzu, where will you be exploited by the Rangers of the Confederate Army? ”

When the two of them were fighting, behind them, the twentieth brigade in the direction of due north also arrived, and this time it was Lieutenant General Riley, the commander-in-chief of the front, who looked at the chaotic position of the nineteenth brigade and frowned: "Hilton, da Gama, what are you all doing?" Now that Guo Ye's department in the south has been supporting himself for four hours, you still have the heart to quarrel? Why don't you go on the offensive yet? ”

Hilton said abruptly: "General Riley, just now, my 19th Brigade was launched by the Rangers for a surprise attack, and the artillery position suffered heavy casualties......"
