Saxton was determined to march in immediately, attacking Yang Gate from the Twin Bridges, and no one could dissuade him, and he had to obey the commander-in-chief.

The 15,000 British and French troops began to march in the direction of Yangzha.

What Arman said was right, the rain for several days not only caused problems with the bullets and guns of the British and French troops, but also made it impossible to advance normally on the muddy road, and the artillery of the artillery battalion, on the main road, did not fall into the pit, even the horses were difficult to pull up, and the British and French troops complained bitterly.

Just after traveling seven or eight miles, before reaching the Bali Bridge, he heard a whistle in the distance, He Qimou led a team of cavalry to rush up towards the artillery behind the British and French forces, and the rifle in his hand kept ringing!

The road was muddy, and it was attacked by cavalry, the British and French troops were in a panic, and there were constantly people in the team who were shot.

It's ****** again!

Saxton's heart was furious, and he shouted: "Order, the cavalry will attack immediately, and the Qing cavalry in front of me will be destroyed on the spot!" ”

The Royal Cavalry Regiment roared out and rushed towards He Qimou's cavalry.

He Qimou sneered and shouted, "Brothers, withdraw!" ”

Five hundred cavalry turned around and ran, the royal cavalry regiment chased after it, and retreated in a daze, just out of the land of less than three or four miles, the Qing cavalry made a comeback again, this time it was not the artillery that struck, but the British army in front!

Moreover, the cavalrymen all abandoned their rifles, picked up their sabers, and charged at the British army, and arrived in front of the British army, although the British army was armed with rifles and kept shooting, but because the bullets were damp, the speed of this shooting was more than one or two times slower than that of a sunny day. With such a close charge, the cavalry arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye, and the swords of the handle were constantly waved, slashing towards the British army, and the British army had to meet them with bayonets!

With a strong impact, the cavalry of the Qing army was raging in the ranks of the British army, and the royal knights at this time were still around the artillery barracks behind! The team of more than 10,000 people stretched out for at least four or five miles, and the roads were full of people and horses, and it was impossible for the cavalry regiment to rush to the front at the first time!

Saxton was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood! roared: "Cavalry regiment, cavalry regiment, attack me, you must destroy this cavalry for me!" ”

The Royal Knights had to make a detour from the north to the front, trying to fight a decisive battle with the Qing cavalry, but he didn't expect that He Qimou saw the Knights rushing over, and he actually whistled and retreated to the southeast again with the cavalry! One on the left and the other on the right, the cavalry regiment complained bitterly, separated by a large number of infantry, how could it catch up with the cavalry of the Qing army in time?

Grant, the commander of the cavalry regiment, could only retreat in hatred, and arranged the cavalry regiment on both sides of the British and French forces, and continued to guard in case the Qing cavalry attacked again.

He Qimou saw that the other party's cavalry was scattered, and protected the British and French troops from both wings, and his heart was also anxious, and he said, you are so separated, how can Lao Tzu tempt the enemy?

He Qimou gritted his teeth and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come for us to fight hard, and launch a charge towards the artillery battalion again, specifically to cut at the artillery, grandma!" Be sure to hook the cavalry out! Then, induce them to retreat in the direction of Lucheng! ”

Seeing that after crossing the Bali Bridge, we will reach the Double Bridge, and the two sides are only a few miles apart, and if we can't lead all the cavalry away, then Guo Ye will not be able to start.

The cavalry of the Qing army rushed up again and launched an attack on the artillery of the British and French forces!

The cavalry on both sides saw that the Qing army was rushing again, and they also approached the position of the artillery battalion, but it was better to be quiet, the soldiers were fast, the Qing army was charging from afar, and the royal knights could only run slowly, where could they catch up with the speed of the Qing cavalry!

The Qing soldiers put up their sabers one by one and began to shoot at the artillery again!

The artillery of the Anglo-French army was beaten by the cavalry, and they had no ability to resist when they were unarmed!

Saxton really couldn't stand such a wretched anger, and roared angrily: "Send an order to Grant, if you don't annihilate this cavalry in front of me, Lao Tzu will want his head!" ”

Grant, who got the order, was also anxious, when had the Royal Cavalry Regiment been so embarrassed, and it was actually being played by the cavalry of the Qing army here! Is it tolerable or unbearable! Attack, attack, be sure to destroy them! “

The Royal Cavalry Regiment surrounded it again, the strength of a regiment, more than 1,000 people, and He Qimou was only about 500 people, naturally far from being the opponent of others, He Qimou saw that the cavalry regiment surrounded it again, and whistled! Lead the cavalry battalion to gallop into the distance again!

However, this time, the Royal Cavalry Regiment has no intention of stopping like this, you run, Lao Tzu will chase, even if it is chased to Tianjin, you will be killed! Grant has already made up his mind to encircle and annihilate the Qing cavalry!

The two cavalrymen ran out for more than twenty miles in one go and arrived near the Lucheng Canal Wharf! He Qimou's cavalry stopped, and ran again to the dock, this time the battle was inevitable!

He Qimou took a deep breath and shouted: "Brothers, prepare to fight, disperse and fight with foreign devils!" Whether or not we can drive the foreigners back to Tianjin depends on our brothers! ”

Twin Bridges, Saxton saw that the cavalry had already gone out in pursuit, and ordered the army to speed forward, and hurry forward while there was no cavalry attack!

The double bridge is a single-hole bridge with a masonry structure, compared with the Bali Bridge, the degree of solidity is too poor, and it is much narrower, and the British and French troops need to stretch the team very long to pass from above! The entire Tonghui River, where the width is no less than 400 meters, is also a barrier to the capital.

Guo Ye's ambush was placed here, less than two miles away from the last ambush site, for this ambush, Guo Ye took matters into his own hands, dismantled dozens of shells, took away two or three hundred catties of explosives, and made them all into simple explosive packs, in a hurry, it was too complicated to get out, but two or three hundred catties of explosives were enough!

A small boat was hidden under the double bridge, and four explosive bags were placed on the entire ship, weighing dozens of pounds, and once it exploded, the consequences can be imagined!

Seeing that the British and French troops had boarded the earthen bridge and marched towards the opposite bank, the strength of four or five regiments had already passed, and the strength of one regiment was on the double bridge, and the remaining ones were the artillery battalion and two French regiments.

The Qing army in ambush under the double bridge knew that the time was up, and they attacked it halfway, which was Guo Shuai's teaching, so they hurriedly ignited the crossing line and ran along the Tonghui River towards the distance!

The British army above saw it very clearly, there were people!

"What are you doing, stop for Lao Tzu, or you'll shoot!"

Boom Boom!

A violent explosion is the best answer to the Anglo-French forces!
