Chapter 54: Retaking the Docks
Heihetun Wharf, there was silence, not affected by the fierce battle two kilometers away, the sleep that should be slept, the stand guard, only in the temporary command of the Russian army, the commander of the fourth battalion Mark, some of them were sitting on pins and needles, standing restlessly, but the regimental chief of staff Rochel was calm, with an extraordinary bearing of sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, the battle has been over for a while, why don't you see the regiment commander send someone back to inform you?"
Major battalion commander Mark is really in a heavy mood at the moment, for the battle two kilometers away, the original bad premonition seems to be getting stronger and stronger, in fact, at the beginning of the battle of Vlaar Mountain, Mark proposed to send troops to check, and even send troops to support, but the arrogant chief of staff Rochel stopped his 'stupid' behavior.
Chief of Staff Rochel has a good reason.
First, there are two battalions and an artillery company around Commander Anania, and the Qing army does not have the strength to eat them at all, and the reason why the battle is fierce is nothing more than because the sky is too dark to accurately judge the number and location of the enemy, so our Russian army may have more personnel to fight at one time.
Second, Heihetun Wharf is a very important outpost, and the headquarters will transport troops and materials here later, and the task of the Mark Battalion is to hold this outpost, and there must be no mistakes.
Third, if the Qing army is really very powerful and Anania is invincible, don't forget, the Anania regiment is equipped with war horses, which can be returned at any time, besides, we only have a battalion of soldiers left, even if we pour out, what can we do?
Three reasons, so that Mark's bad premonition, completely disappeared, and even a few reconnaissance posts were too lazy to be dispatched, the reason is that the boys have been busy for a day and a night, and it is time for them to have a good rest, to believe in Commander Anania, believe in the strength of our Russian army, the Qing army is really weak, just landed and operated, and easily occupied the dock, isn't this the best proof?
However, at this moment, the battle has been over for more than ten minutes, but Anania still hasn't sent someone back to inform him, which makes Mark's uneasiness invisibly amplified, after all, it is less than two kilometers, and the speed of riding a horse will not take more than a few minutes.
"Major Mark, you have to calm down, as a major of the great Tsarist Empire, you should have the bearing of a major." Rochelle glanced at Mark, and then said slowly: "Perhaps, after Commander Anania killed the Qing army that was not long-sighted, he forgot to send someone to inform us, so he hurried directly, after all, the battle just now lasted more than half an hour, and it was a lot of delay, and it was only more than an hour to calculate the time agreed with the headquarters to attack Heihe Tuncheng." ”
"This?"
"What's this, could it be that Major Mark would think that our regiment commander had suffered a defeat, and more than 1,000 people were all killed by the Qing army in just half an hour? Say it, do you believe it? Rochelle said with a look of certainty.
More than 1,000 soldiers of the Tsarist Russian Empire were killed by the Qing army in just half an hour, and if this thing was said, everyone would think it was a joke, and whoever believed it would have a sick head.
The combat effectiveness of the Qing army, not to mention, is far away, in recent days, the Russian army has dispatched several large armies, which way is not invincible, so Rochelle's confidence is not blind pride, but justified, of course, his bad luck ran into Yue Weihua, a traverser, so it is doomed, Rochel is tragic.
"Well, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, it's your subordinates who are overly worried."
Mark was persuaded by Rochelle again, and besides, Rochel was the chief of staff after all, and he was Mark's superior, and the rank and file crushed people to death, this kind of strict hierarchy in the army was the same in any country, and after chatting a few words innocentially, Mark walked out of the temporary headquarters, and there were still some concerns in his heart, so he was going to find a few cronies and go to the place where he had just fought.
However, before Mark could find someone, he felt a slight vibration from the ground, as a major who had been fighting on the march for many years, Mark was still very experienced, and immediately lay on the ground, his ears were close to the ground, and after a little discrimination, he understood that this slight vibration should be the unique vibration rhythm of the horse's hooves on the ground.
Mark immediately ran to the direction of the entrance of the dock, and found that a group of sentries had also risen, and they were all aiming into the distance, and in the vast night, a group of cavalry was approaching the dock unhurriedly.
"Major Mark, it should be our man." A Russian soldier pointed to the oncoming cavalry.
Because of the closeness, you can already vaguely see the military flag belonging to the Tsarist Russian Empire, of course, there is no problem with the clothes on those cavalry, after all, the combat uniforms of the Tsarist Russian soldiers and the Qing army are very different, and it is still easy to distinguish.
"Well, it seems that it should have been a waste of time cleaning the battlefield, and it is estimated that someone was sent to send the loot back." Mark said lightly, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and secretly said that he still thought too much.
"So, let's open the door?"
"Open it."
With Mark's order, the gate at the entrance of the dock was quickly pushed open, and even the obstacles stacked at the gate were quickly cleared, at this time, the cavalry team was less than 100 meters away from the dock, and with the faint light in the dock, Mark vaguely saw that these cavalry were marching, and many people seemed to have something flying behind their heads.
"Braids?"
Mark suddenly realized that what was flying behind the cavalry's head seemed to resemble the braid on the back of the Qing army's head, and immediately shouted: "Bastard, hurry, close the gate, hurry, close the door,......
Boom!
The action of the Tsarist soldiers preparing to close the door instantly stimulated this group of cavalry, and the cavalry, who was not in a hurry, entered a galloping state in an instant under Fei Qing's roar, and the distance of 100 meters was a matter of three or five seconds for the cavalry in the charging state.
In the end, the gate of the dock could not be completely closed, Fei Qing led the Qing army to directly rush in, and the Qing army did not even have time to raise their guns, but plunged into the dock, and the speed did not decrease at all, and rushed towards the depths of the dock, so that the team behind could also enter the dock.
"Kill."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Da-da-da-da!
Thundered!
The battle started instantly, and in just two or three minutes, the Qing army led by Fei Qing and the Black Dragon Army led by Yue Xiaodong, a total of three or four hundred people, all rushed into the dock, like a group of bandits in the village, rampage, wanton fighting, especially the Qing army was killed one by one, because just a few hours ago, their comrades were tortured and killed by the Russian army in this way.
Of course, when it comes to combat effectiveness, although the weapons in the hands of the Qing army led by Fei Qing have all been replaced with water beads, compared to the Black Dragon Army, it is weak, and the box guns and Madsen light machine guns all give the Black Dragon Army an advantage in this melee and melee.
Also, the grenade that seems to be free of money, just like Yue Weihua said, as long as there is light, wherever there are many people, throw the grenade into it, especially the temporary military camp of Tsarist Russia, which has been taken care of, and the power of dozens of grenades to explode in unison has made more than half of the soldiers in the Mark battalion die in the barracks before they have time to participate in the battle.
The battle happened suddenly and ended quickly, lasting less than ten minutes.
With lightning speed, launch a thunderous raid, with super fierce firepower, carry out a covering strike, and quickly decide, this is Yue Weihua's favorite combat method, and after several battles, the Black Dragon Army has basically mastered this battle rhythm.
As the gunfire slowly stopped, the Heihetun Wharf, which had experienced two consecutive baptisms of war overnight, finally regained its calm again.
However, although the Heihetun Wharf has regained its calm, at this moment, Yue Weihua's heart is extremely uncalm, because now Yue Weihua is in the temporary telecommunications room of Tsarist Russia, holding two telegrams in his hands, falling into deep thought and falling into a difficult choice.
In this raid, Yue Weihua arranged for Nie Youcai to personally lead the reconnaissance company and take down the Russian army's telecommunications room at the speed of thunder, so that the Russian army had no time to destroy these telegraph records, and two of the telegrams were extremely important, both from the Russian army headquarters in Hailanpao.
The first was to order the Anania regiment to launch a feint attack on Heihetun at half past five in the morning.
The second is to order Rochel to do a good job of receiving the Russian steamer and tugboat, which will carry a regiment of soldiers, as well as supplies and weapons from Hailan at about 6 o'clock in the morning.
After being silent for a few minutes, Yue Weihua's frowning brows finally relaxed, only to find that only Nie Youcai had been guarding him in the telecommunications room and had never left, so he patted Nie Youcai's shoulder and smiled: "Youcai, you have made great achievements today." ”
"Hehe, where, speaking of which, today's head work should belong to Liu Liren's guy, don't say it, this guy is indeed a thief for intelligence and telecommunications,......
"Haha, I said that you are talented, you are also an old man, this Liu Liren has only been in contact with you for a few days, and he will give you a mystery."
Since the day before yesterday, after defeating the Su Ma clan, Liu Liren was determined to follow Yue Weihua, Yue Weihua actually had a preliminary idea of how to arrange Liu Liren, but Lao Maozi's invasion was imminent, so Yue Weihua did not have time to free up his hands to arrange for the time being, so he put Liu Liren in the reconnaissance company and asked him to follow Nie Youcai.
"Commander, you have wronged me, I am sincere, I will seriously give you a talent inspection, this Liu Liren is a returnee according to what you said, and he also has the ability, so I recommended it to you,......
"Haha, okay, I'm kidding you, I know that Liu Liren is a talent, don't worry, I can't treat him badly, so let's do it, there is a task right now, you let Liu Liren lead the brothers of a squad of the reconnaissance company to do it, it can be regarded as the final ability test, the task is to go to Heihe Tuncheng immediately, so ,......, like this......
