"The foreigner called! The foreigner called! ”

Just as Wang Sirui was thinking about how to put this heavy machine gun into his hands, there was a sudden commotion in front of him, and many people shouted loudly.

At the same time, you can see the billowing dust and smoke in the distance, as if thousands of horses are galloping.

Before anyone could react, the battalion of men and horses walking in front of Wang Sirui suddenly became chaotic, and one by one they began to flee to the rear in a panic.

In an instant, the whole scene was a mess, and the soldiers could not find the generals, and they would not be able to find the soldiers.

"Run, the foreigner is coming!" In the panic, I don't know who shouted again, and even the baggage battalion with Wang Sirui began to panic.

Many soldiers began to flee in all directions, most of them still fled directly in the direction of the capital, but some even fled directly to the side of the road.

Now that the foreigners are fighting so fiercely, even if they return to the capital, they are not sure that there will be any deviations.

Although most of these people are here to eat, that's why they came to join the army. But when their lives were at stake, more of these people chose their lives.

Besides, now that each of them has a weapon in their hands, even if they can't eat the army, they have every strength to occupy the mountains and become kings. Although the reputation is a little worse, it will not lose his life.

The soldiers in charge of the heavy machine guns in the front battalion tried to lift their guns in a panic and ran back with the team in front.

And Wang Sirui thought about the heavy machine gun all the way, how could he let them take it so easily at this time?

"Run, the foreigners are coming, with such a heavy guy, can you run away? Come on! Come on! Put the heavy machine gun in the car, and I'll help you transport it back to the capital. Wang Sirui hurriedly yelled at the soldiers.

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then hesitated.

This heavy machine gun is the most valuable in the entire battalion, and if this heavy machine gun is lost, the only thing that awaits them is the result of beheading.

"What are you stunned about? If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave. Seeing that the soldiers were a little hesitant, Wang Sirui yelled again, as if he was in a hurry to run back.

"My lord, I'm sorry for your trouble." Under Wang Sirui's yell, those soldiers also seemed to realize that life was the most important thing, and after thanking Wang Sirui, they hurriedly picked up their feet and ran back.

In a short time, the soldiers were gone. I have to say that without the drag of heavy machine guns, these soldiers still ran very quickly.

As more and more soldiers surpassed Wang Sirui's baggage battalion, the military morale on the baggage battalion also began to appear, and some people even ran directly and quietly to both sides, or directly threw away the baggage cart and ran back.

Wang Sirui hurriedly beckoned several henchmen soldiers, quickly hid the heavy machine guns and ammunition into a carriage, and then ordered these soldiers to keep an eye on this carriage, even if all the baggage was lost, this carriage could not be lost.

"My lord, why don't we drop our supplies and run?" Wu Zixuan looked at the messy team and said a little anxiously.

"Leaving supplies? How many heads do we have enough for them to chop off? Wang Sirui reprimanded.

This battle is also enough to be fought, and before even the shadow of the enemy has been seen, the team has run away.

Not to mention anything else, there will definitely be a scolding after going back, and it will be certain to deal with people when the time comes.

Although Wang Sirui is only a baggage team, if these materials are lost, then Wang Sirui will definitely not be able to run at that time.

Therefore, transporting these materials back to the capital safely and securely is the foundation of Wang Sirui's life.

"My lord, what do you think of them? Some of them even lost their weapons, and no one would say anything if we lost some supplies. Seeing that more and more people surpassed the baggage team, and some people even lost their weapons, Wu Zixuan hurriedly said.

"What's the panic? We have at least a few thousand troops in front of us, and even if the coalition forces do fight, it is not us who will be the first to be unlucky. Besides, the coalition forces are not advancing in unison, and the ones encountered in front are estimated to be the vanguard of the coalition forces. After being ambushed, I thought it was the main force of the coalition army, and I was scared as if I had lost my soul. Pacify the troops, don't mess with yourself, we have enough time to transport the supplies back to the capital safely. Although Wang Sirui didn't want to say too much to them, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Wang Sirui could only say this.

In fact, it is not too much different from Wang Sirui's guess, the front did encounter a battalion of the vanguard of the coalition army, and the coalition army was relatively vigilant because it was close to the capital, and the Qing army was found to be going to block it from afar.

Prepared to fight unintentionally, the coalition side quickly defeated the troops in front of the Qing army. After seeing it, the troops behind mistakenly thought that the main force of the coalition was coming, so they bought feet and hurriedly fled for their lives.

The people in the back saw that the people in front had fled, although they hadn't figured out what was going on in front of them, but that didn't prevent them from running away together.

As the saying goes, a soldier who dares to fight hard may not be able to bring out the blood of another person. However, a soldier who escapes can often easily sweep away ten soldiers, and ten soldiers can take more soldiers to escape with them.

The Qing army has already proved their corruption and fragility, and it is quite majestic to bully honest civilians on weekdays, but when it comes to the battlefield, these people are more timid than anyone else.

"My lord, this ......"

"You know what I've done, I don't think I need to say more about some things, right?" Wang Sirui warned.

For the situation on the front line, Wang Sirui has enough confidence.

Even if the vanguard of the coalition forces really pursued, they would not dare to go too deep, and after the pursuit was enough for a certain distance, they would definitely stop for a while, wait for the troops behind, and then continue the pursuit.

After all, the previous battles of the Qing army and the Boxers also taught the coalition forces some lessons, and the coalition forces were not unimpeded all the way.

And then again, the coalition army was only more than 20,000 people at the beginning, and later it also felt that the troops were insufficient, so they successively increased the number of troops to 50,000, which already shows that the coalition army did not have enough confidence to defeat the Qing court.

"Yes, sir!" Wu Zixuan suddenly remembered that Wang Sirui had killed so many foreigners with just a few dozen people, and he secretly had some confidence in his heart.

Except for the baggage team, the other Qing troops did not look like an army at all.

And this rout, under Wang Sirui's repeated vigilance, still took away some of the soldiers of the baggage team. This time, each of the five companies also had some deserters.

These people were mixed in with the fleeing ranks of the Qing army, and it was impossible to distinguish them in just a minute or two.

Finally, in order to prevent more soldiers from joining the fleeing camp, Wang Sirui forced the 1st and 2nd companies to be on both sides of the ranks, prohibiting any rout from rushing into the ranks.

There were two companies of soldiers between the Qing army's rout and the baggage battalion as an obstacle, and there was a gap of about two or three meters in the middle, which also made some soldiers who wanted to escape unable to find any chance.
