As mentioned earlier, King De deployed more than 1,000 cavalry in Ulanqab, in addition to more than 2,000 infantry, a total of more than 3,000 infantry cavalry.

The county seat of Ulanqab is nearly 60 kilometers away from the county seat of Xinghe, and it is more than 130 kilometers away from the county seat of Guisui, which is more than half of the distance from Xinghe in Ulanqab.

Therefore, although King De's reinforcements set out from Guisui at the first time and quickly reinforced Ulanqab, they still failed to reach Ulanqab before the white-robed army.

It took less than an hour and a half to set off from Xinghe County, Liu Zhenyu led the main force to rush to the outside of Ulanqab County, although he knew the news that Xinghe County was suddenly attacked and lost, but the defenders of King De in Ulanqab were still caught off guard by the white-robed army that suddenly came to the city.

They never imagined that less than two hours after losing contact in Xinghe County, the enemy would attack Ulanqab.

At this point, not only were the troops of King De in Ulanqab not mentally prepared, but even Kebin, who was leading his troops to rush to reinforcements, stood on the spot after receiving the critical news of the sudden attack on Ulanqab.

He couldn't figure out who the enemy was this time, who could attack Xinghe first and then Ulanqab in such a short period of time? In addition to being shocked, Kebin reported to King De, who was still in Guisui, and at the same time urgently urged the troops to advance quickly and rushed to the aid of Ulanqab.

In the headquarters of the puppet Mongolian army in Guisui County.

King De held the telegram that Kebin had just sent in his hand, and said with an incredulous face: "How is this possible? Where did these enemies come from? It came and went as quickly as a ghost. ”

Where did King De think that Liu Zhenyu's raiding troops, fully mechanized marching, could run fifty to sixty kilometers per hour, which was beyond the reach of his reinforcements.

Even if it was his cavalry troops, it was impossible to run a hundred miles in an hour, otherwise the mounts of his cavalry would have been reimbursed without fighting the white-robed army.

This is the gap between the modern armored mechanized units and the cavalry units, and the gap between the two sides is not only reflected in firepower and defense, but also in mobility.

It is also a flat river and a boundless prairie, and the cavalry who used to gallop through the grassland with strong mobility were as slow as snails in front of Liu Zhenyu's mechanized armored assault troops.

Due to the delay in the arrival of reinforcements, coupled with the deterrence of the powerful firepower composed of the artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns of the white-robed army, the puppet army in Ulanqab County only resisted for more than half an hour, and then surrendered one after another, this time not only the infantry surrendered, but even the more than 1,000 cavalry also surrendered with interest before they left the city to meet the battle.

In the battle of Xinghe County, the bloody end of their own cavalry is a lesson from the past, no matter how loyal these Mongolian cavalry are to King De, no matter how arrogant and arrogant, they are not willing to risk their lives.

Of course, the most important reason for forcing the puppet army in the city to surrender was that at that time, their city gates and city walls had been knocked down and collapsed in several places by the tank guns of the white-robed army, and the infantry was about to swarm into the city.

After capturing the county seat of Ulanqab, Liu Zhenyu entered the city in an armored car with the support of Xiaohong and others, and suddenly, Xiaolan, the commander of the first infantry regiment, walked towards him with a hurried look.

"What's wrong, Xiaolan?" Liu Zhenyu saw that she looked hurried, and asked as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Commander, I just got some important information." Xiao Lan stood up and saluted.

"What information, tell me quickly." Liu Zhenyu raised his hand and signaled.

"According to the confession of the captives who surrendered to us, the king of Germany had already sent reinforcements before we attacked the county town of Ulanqab, and now this reinforcement should be on the way." Xiaolan replied.

"Reinforcements? How many troops are there? Liu Zhenyu's eyes lit up and asked.

"There are more than 3,000 cavalry and more than 6,000 infantry, totaling about 10,000 people." Xiaolan replied.

While speaking, Liu Zhenyu had already asked the entourage orderlies to take out the marching battle map, got out of the car and opened it with the help of Xiaohong and others, and after staring at the map for a while, Liu Zhenyu said: "The total distance from Ulanqab to Guisui is about 130 kilometers. ”

"With the fastest marching speed of King De's reinforcements, they should now be no less than eighty or ninety kilometers away from Ulanqab, that is to say, they should be about forty or fifty kilometers away from Guisui." Liu Zhenyu said silently in his heart.

Xiaolan nodded in agreement and said: "Commander, you have analyzed very hard, it took us about an hour and a half to rush from Xinghe County to Ulanqab, and it took about half an hour to capture this city, and the total time is about two hours." If the German king's reinforcements learned that Ulanqab was in an emergency, they would have quickened their march and rushed to help at the speed of a rapid march, and in two hours, they should be able to march forty to fifty kilometers in a hurry. ”

"And even if they now learn that Ulanqab has been captured by us, they immediately turn around, and with our fastest march, we can catch up with them in two hours." Liu Zhenyu said: "You must know that their cavalry troops have been running for a long distance for one hundred and eighty miles, and they have become tired soldiers, and now they suddenly turn around and rush back, and the marching speed will naturally drop greatly, but our marching speed will not change at all." ”

Before Liu Zhenyu finished speaking, Xiaolan answered: "Once we suddenly catch up, the enemy will become a frightened bird, and in a panic, we will take advantage of the situation to cover up and pursue, and we will definitely win a big victory." ”

"Well, the reinforcements sent by King De from Guisui should be his main force, as long as we eat them, then the victory of this Western Expedition is just around the corner." Liu Zhenyu nodded.

While speaking, Liu Zhenyu suddenly rolled up the sleeve of his left arm, looked at the energy bar of the exchange machine, after the two battles just now, the exchange machine has received a lot of energy replenishment, at least it can provide new fuel for tanks, armored vehicles and military trucks, which makes Liu Zhenyu's worries disappear.

After pondering for a while, Liu Zhenyu immediately said: "Xiaolan, pass the order, leave five hundred soldiers to stay in Ulanqab to guard the prisoners, and the main force will immediately gather and continue to rush west with me to kill the ten thousand reinforcements of King De!" ”

"Yes!" Xiaolan and Xiaohong responded with their towering breasts raised at the same time, and were immediately ordered to leave separately.

………………………………

Guisui County, the headquarters of the puppet Mongolian army.

"Your Royal Highness, something is wrong, General Kebin has just sent back the latest news, Ulanqab has been captured by unknown forces." An officer staggered into the headquarters with a panicked look and reported to King De, who was anxiously pacing back and forth.

"What?" King De was taken aback when he heard this, and grabbed the officer by the collar and shouted, "What did you say? Ulanqab lost? How long has this been resisting? ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, it took less than an hour for Ulanqab to fall from being attacked." The officer replied tremblingly.

"Fuck, evil door! Who are these enemies? Can you trap two counties of our army overnight? King De was furious and amazed.

"Your Royal Highness, General Kebin asks you for instructions, is the reinforcements withdrawn back to Sui?" The officer asked cautiously.

King De suddenly realized that he was shocked and said: "Withdraw, hurry up, of course withdraw, Ulanqab is lost, what are you going to do?" Immediately send a telegram to Kebin and ask him to lead his troops back immediately, we must ensure the safety of Guisui, and Guisui must not be lost again. ”

"Yes!" The officer nodded in response, quickly turned and took the order.
