Chapter 72: Attack

To tell the truth, Zhang Kui had no hope of observing this battle, and although the stone walls on the periphery were high, they were dilapidated, and they were almost like paper paste in front of the fried yào bag that He Xiǎo had brought. He Xiǎo Jun is definitely a violent person, so thin a wall, I don't know how many fried yào this guy has brought

Anyway, when the soldiers waiting outside the east wall heard a loud bang, the entire east wall collapsed by a third, and the dilapidated barracks inside...... Even the six or seven barracks near the walls were damaged by the huge tremors.

He Xiǎo was the first to take the lead and rushed in, and the Vietnamese boys with stunned expressions inside obviously didn't understand the situation, and a few Vietnamese patrol posts who heard the movement and ran out to see what was going on were directly swept to the ground by the bullet storm in front of them, and the two who didn't catch the bullets screamed all the way and fled in the opposite direction.

However, after all, this Dongxingkou Pass is an old checkpoint that has been built for hundreds of years, and He Xiǎo rushed in, only to find that this is not a wall structure, behind the first layer of the outer wall that was blasted, there is a stone wall more than two meters high, at this time, there are already panicked shouts from behind the wall......

And with the sound of the explosion on the east wall, the sound of jī fierce jiāo fire also came from outside the north and south two large méns, Ma Desheng and his people also blew up the heavy wooden mén behind them with the fried yào bag they carried, but the low NV wall on the second floor inside also surprised Ma Desheng, and just when he was about to blast again, there were already enemies rushing up to the NV wall.

"Fire suppression" Ma Desheng waved his hand, and several soldiers with Type 80 submachine guns immediately leaned on the bunker and aimed their guns at the enemy on the wall close at hand.

Spit and spit and spit out, such a violent torrent of metal is absolutely unimaginable for the Vietnamese boy above, several Vietnamese soldiers who were preparing shè arrows were knocked to the ground in an instant, and the blood from the metal penetrating the body was sprinkled on the wall, causing a burst of frightened shouts.

Immediately, there was no longer a lù side on the wall, and soon, the fried yào bun placed in the corner of the two wooden mén was ignited again...... After the loud bang, the wooden mén was directly blown away, and at this time, the Vietnamese inside did not even understand who the enemy was who was coming by surprise?

"Don't let the first battalion take the lead" Ma Desheng brandished a rifle with a long bayonet mounted after seeing the wood explode rapidly.

In fact, at this time, He Xiǎo was a little depressed, the plan he formulated for the side assault was already very effective, but he didn't expect that there was a wall behind the opponent's high outer wall, directly blasting this kind of multi-layer thick wall, it would take a lot of fire, and this kind of wall was a defensive thick wall, which could provide soldiers to stand on it against the attacking enemy, for the wall of this structure, after thinking about it for a few seconds, he depressedly chose to make a detour before mén......

When Ma Desheng rushed into the wood that had been blown down, he heard someone shouting loudly in front of him from a distance, and he didn't say a word just bang a few shots, and the soldiers equipped with submachine guns next to him also immediately poured a round of projectiles, and there was a roaring sound on the opposite side, obviously the enemy in front of him had also gathered a group of soldiers.

"Fire suppression, arson, arson" Ma Desheng smiled and shouted loudly, in the dark, he didn't think about any unwarranted disaster.

A few happy soldiers rushed up from behind, holding a wooden xiǎo box in their hands, after opening, they were all tightly blocked clay long-necked bottles, after igniting, hiding in the bunker began to smash up, and immediately dozens of whirring and burning bottles flew towards the wooden house in front of them, and after hitting the house, a large flame immediately burst out.

In the blazing firelight, a team of more than 30 people with spears and shields appeared on the opposite side, and the low wall that the other side was leaning on was still trying to resist, and there was a Vietnamese military attache who looked like he was wielding a waist knife......

Bang bang bang, when Ma Desheng still wanted to raise his gun, he actually let a few of his subordinates take the lead, and the military attache who was shouting fell to the ground like a sack, causing a panicked cry from those Vietnamese boys behind the wall.

"Scatter Them"

The shuffle of submachine guns and rifles rang out, and even with the protection of a low wall, a dozen fell on the opposite side, and the remaining dozen let out ghostly howls, and then weapons such as spears and broadswords were thrown from behind the wall of love

"Liu San, you group of people take care of the prisoners" Ma Desheng didn't have time to look at these xiǎo soldiers, he was going to take the lead now, and the big room in the middle was his destination. ,

Obviously, He Xiǎo was rather depressed at this time, when he arrived at Zhengmén, several groups of people and horses on the assault side had already controlled all the key points, and were steadily advancing towards the middle, because there were 0 casualties, all Xiǎo teams were fighting steadily, plus the vision in the dark was not good, and there were really a lot of big Xiǎoxiǎo houses in this pass, and the advance was not very fast.

However, the raging flames that soon rose from the rear mén illuminated the scene ahead, and Ma Desheng's guy actually let the fire be set off, which made He Xiǎo a little depressed, he didn't figure out how the third battalion could set such an amazing fire at this moment, but now it was easy!

"Outflanked on both flanks, charge at once" he immediately gave the order.

The Vietnamese soldiers in front of Luàn had completely lost their ability to resist, and the first battalion encountered no organized resistance during the charge, and it was only when they rushed to the vicinity of the central house that the real enemy appeared.

The sound of a counterattack finally came from the window of the stone house in the middle of the "bang", and the three Vietnamese boys with old-fashioned bird guns made the first resistance of this round of charge.

However, in the sound of gunfire like bursting beans, two corpses were immediately left behind, and they no longer dared to face each other. For them, such firepower on the other side is completely unthinkable, and in the face of incomprehensible things, it is obvious that the only thought of ordinary people is to flee as much as possible.

The first battalion was still clearing the scattered enemy forces around it, and took control of the surrounding defensive points, and at this time the other end of the big room had been opened with a bang.

Ma Desheng finally accomplished his goal, and after putting a fried yào bag behind the big room, he rushed into the house first with his men, but ...... Among the dozen or so Vietnamese soldiers who had been shocked inside, Lao Ma was surprised to find that there was no general guard here.

When Ma Desheng's men swarmed out, the enemy on the periphery had already been controlled by a battalion of men and horses, obviously this general was not in the house for a long time, he brought over a Vietnamese soldier who looked like a military attaché, but the local dialect spoken by this guy, even the guide could not hear it, and finally gestured that the rout had escaped from a ditch in the west

This made He Xiǎo Jun and Ma Desheng, who met him, look depressed, and ran to the corner under the west wall, and sure enough, there was a water outlet that could walk three or four people, and the iron fence originally installed on it had been lifted up and thrown aside, and it was obvious that this was the passage for the enemy to escape

There are no troops arranged here, and you can't blame He Xiǎojun, because I have observed the terrain, this pass is stuck on a high slope, and there are mountains on both sides, and the big camp is just on the protrusion of the two mountain passes, and the west side of this big camp is a slope behind the big mountain, and it is quite difficult to climb up, and you need to go around two mountain beams to get there, so the scouts of the first battalion observed that this side was a wall, and they didn't think that there would be such a ditch that could run out.

The two generals waved their hands, each sent half of their troops out to continue the search, and the others began to clean up the battlefield, although this victory was slightly regrettable, but it still completed the drill task and this way to kill, it was a real battle, although the enemy was a little weak, but also let the soldiers get a very valuable combat exercise.

The two returned to the big room, which was fried by Ma Desheng and turned to ashes, so they couldn't sit at all, so they had to move some tables and chairs and wait outside first, waiting for news from the pursuing troops, but as soon as the two sat down, they thought of a question......

"Ma Desheng, what do you say about this Qi Fang person? This xiǎo zi doesn't look like a corner sè that will fall behind," He xiǎo spoke first.

"Yes, I'm also thinking about this, the table tennis here, this fire is higher than the sky, if this Qi Fang is not deaf or blind, he won't come out and make a head" Ma Desheng was stunned for a moment and shouted, "MD, Qi Fang's xiǎozi, I understand"

“……”

The two looked at each other, obviously thinking of an answer, and when it was dawn, the soldiers sent out to search came back, obviously finding nothing, which made the two generals depressed for a while, but where did this Qi Fang die, it was dawn, and he hadn't arrived at the camp yet

Said Cao cào, this Cao cào arrived, at this time, a large number of people rumbled in, and the leader was Qi Fang, this guy still looked innocent and kind, but his face was somewhat excited.

"Brother He, Brother Ma, I'm late, so I didn't rush over to grab the credit"

He Xiǎo Jun and Ma Desheng glanced at each other, and muttered in their hearts, Ma Desheng and Qi Fang were from the same village, and immediately ran over to look at the back of this team, and it was really as the two of them expected, holding a lot of prisoners, at least thirty or so,

"Qi family two xiǎo son, isn't it a credit behind this?"

Qi Fang smiled, "I just picked up the leak outside, but I didn't expect that there were a lot of leaks."

The two commanders of the first and third battalions of the "......" always had black lines on their faces.

Zhang Kui followed Qi Fang closely, and in the ensuing inventory of the results, he affirmed the training results and battle arrangements of the three battalions.

The steady and steady attack of the first battalion and the prior scout arrangements are in place, although the attack launched in the dark of night has rules to follow, and there is a degree of advance and retreat, and it does live up to the title of the jīng sharp battalion, and Ma Desheng of the third battalion can be said to have given full play to the characteristics of the infinite wisdom of the people, Ma Desheng has long planned to launch an attack at night, he is from a hunter, and he has long considered the light problem that affects the night shè attack, so he prepared earthen kerosene bottles in advance for arson. This is arguably one of the keys to a quick resolution of the battle

When Qi Fang was in Hejuni, he unexpectedly found an old man who had been a soldier in Dongxingkou Pass, and knew the general terrain here, and learned that the back mountain was not a dead end, but a way to escape, and he also guessed the general pattern of the attack of the first battalion and the third battalion, and he made up a position with the past.

So the main force copied the mountain road and ran to the only back mountain that could not be attacked, and of course he also sent three other xiǎo groups to check for leaks in the front mountain, which fully reflected the cooperation between the teams. And his results were also very good, capturing more than 30 prisoners, including the general of the pass

Three days later, outside Mawei Harbor, the 501 ship took the lead and sailed out of the mouth of the Min River, and there were six cargo ships accompanying it, which wanted to double the number of cargo ships compared to the first trip to Vietnam, but this time the ships were not all cargo, but carried a large number of ammunition, artillery, and guns.

Although Ding Richang's general order was invited for this trip, the pipe belts of the ships of the Nanyang Naval Division were basically Liu Shen's cronies, and Qin Kai went to transfer troops twice, and each said that the ship had a problem and was being overhauled, and when it could be repaired, it was completely accurate, but Chen An, the "Ji'an" ship pipe belt who had run through Guangzhou once last time, was willing to accompany the order.

Chen An is willing to go along, naturally has his thoughts, he is not Liu Shen's cronies, just because the qualifications in the Nanyang Naval Division are older than anyone, so he still sits firmly in the position of this pipe belt, but now the good things in the Sailor Division are generally not related to him, he is now almost 50 people, and he will return to his hometown after a few years, and he has no strength to bother with the idea of drilling the camp, and when the time comes, he will return to his hometown with a seven-rank martial arts, which is also an honor.

It's just that there are still some people in his own family who are working in the army, which makes him want to find a way out, go back to Guangzhou, but he figured out a little meaning, when Qin Kai got on the ship that night, he came on a German gunboat, and he also came out of the lend-lease, how much ability does this take, so he thought about going to sea with this lord once, and it was also in the relationship.

When he saw the ironclad ship of the training camp appear, he was so surprised that after repeatedly looking at the soldiers standing on the bridge of the other side with clairvoyance, he confirmed that it was indeed the people of the training camp, and that Xu Shoushan, who was also from Fuzhou, was the one he had recruited into the Nanyang Naval Division back then, and he was not standing on the side of the ship at this time to direct the soldiers to carry out cào training

He has been a veteran of more than 20 years in the naval division, and he has seen the changes in the Western warships in Mawei Harbor over the years, and the foreigners' gunboats have changed from sailboats to the common iron-hulled ships now, and now the battleship in front of him is definitely an ironclad battleship, not the iron-clad wooden thing of the Nanyang Naval Division.

The tonnage is also much larger than the latest flagship of the Nanyang Naval Division, the "Chengqing", which can be easily distinguished from the length of the battleship, the draft and the height of the ship's side, and what shocked him even more was that the battleship actually had six long barrels in front and behind, and the cannon looked mighty from a distance.

The Ji'an ship is a warship, with a mén 7-inch Amstrand breech gun in front, and a 6-inch Krupp gun in the stern, and a few mén green guns on the side of the ship as auxiliary firepower, these guns are all luǒ loaded, there is no turret at all, and the steering angle is very xiǎo, when facing the enemy, you need the bow to face the enemy, and the firepower on your own ship is compared with the battleship of the training camp, which is simply the difference between a beggar and an emperor......
