Chapter 138: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Sparrow Follows
"Well done!"
Zhang Feng happened to have already descended the mountain, and when he came to the outer defense line of the camp, he happened to see the cavalry of the cavalry regiment in the distance holding short guns and fighting Tartars, and the battle was completely one-sided. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Each cavalry warrior could fire three shots, and after three shots, the cavalrymen thrust their short guns into the holsters on both sides of the saddle, then drew their sharp sabers, clamped their legs between the belly of the horses, and headed towards the tartars.
Some of the cavalrymen had not finished shooting the bullets in their short guns, and they took the short guns, also with their legs between them, and rushed over.
The white-knuckle battle began, of course, mixed with gunfire one after another.
"Well done!"
A cavalry platoon commander was cutting down a Tartar light cavalry with a knife, and another Tartar cavalry next to him rushed over and was about to kill the platoon commander, when a gunshot rang out, and the Tartar who rushed over fell from his horse, and it turned out that a cavalryman next to him fired a shot.
The cavalryman had finished firing this shot, and the muzzle of his short gun was still smoking, and he did not care about this, but thrust his short gun into the saddle and rushed forward with his saber.
On the outer defense line of the camp, Zhang Feng had already seen that the soldiers of the cavalry regiment had already met the opponent's short soldiers, so Zhang Feng had a short gun in one hand and shouted: "Kill!" Kill me! ”
"Kill!"
Reinforcements came, and the soldiers were in high spirits, with guns in their hands, lined up neatly, and killed the Tartar cavalry, and those who cooperated with the battle were not to be outdone, and followed with grenades.
Everyone still fired in three stages, while shooting, they approached the Tartar cavalry, and in the face of everyone's shooting, the Tartar cavalry was completely unable to resist.
The Tartar is flanked on both sides!
Killing shouts, gunshots, grenade explosions, outside Jinzhou City, a big battle was staged. However, a discerning person can see that the battle is in a one-sided form.
The Tartar light cavalry originally had 3,000 people, but when they attacked Zhang Feng's outer camp just now, they suffered a lot of losses, and then they were shot and killed by the cavalry regiment that descended from the sky, and they no longer had an advantage in numbers, coupled with low morale, they had no advantage at all.
The leading Tartar Armor Lama looked around the entire battlefield, and then shouted sharply: "Retreat, retreat!" ”
The Tartars knew that this time they were originally coming to sneak attack, and the target was Zhang Feng's camp, but now the mission has failed, so they can only retreat, and then the melee continues, and if they don't do it, they will be wiped out.
"Bang!"
Zhang Feng held a short gun in his hand, and after the second shot, a Tartar cavalryman was killed by Zhang Feng's shot, Zhang Feng looked at his smoking muzzle with relief, and thought in his heart, the single shot is still a little bit worse, and the second shot cannot be fired if it is not loaded.
There were dozens of guards around Zhang Feng, everyone either used guns or knives, but the Tartar cavalry could not rush in front of Zhang Feng, and Zhang Feng had time to reload.
Reloaded, two short guns could be fired again, Zhang Feng saw the target, twenty or thirty meters away from him, there were several Tartars, one of whom looked like the leader.
This is the leading Tartar Jia Lae Zhen, who is struggling to break through and wants to escape, but the leading Tartar has been targeted by Zhang Feng.
I saw Zhang Feng aim carefully, and then pulled the trigger, as soon as the gun rang out, the blood on the head of the leading Tartar appeared, and then he fell off the horse's back and was shot in the head by Zhang Feng.
"Lord Commander, your marksmanship is really good!"
A guard next to him happened to see this scene, and immediately praised it happily, and then, following Zhang Feng's example, he took a musket and aimed at the Tartar not far away.
On the city wall of Jinzhou.
Gao Qiqian had a dark face, and was going down the city wall, accompanied by several eunuchs, back to the mansion in the city, and some of the generals of the Guanning Army did not leave, but watched there with relish.
"It's really relieving, that's how to fight!"
"Kill these Tartars!"
“……”
We don't know how many times we have fought with the Tartars, often losing more and winning less, where have we seen such a battle, see the excitement, some generals even cheered happily.
"Look, General Zhang's reinforcements are here again!"
In the distance, on the avenue, a large group of soldiers in army green uniforms and steel helmets were running forward, and the infantry of the independent brigade also arrived, everyone ran over and quickly joined the battle.
The die is cast!
With the addition of the main force of the independent brigade, the three thousand Tartar light cavalry were completely slaughtered, and a few dozen cavalry escaped, but they were chased and shot by the cavalry regiment, that is, the three thousand Tartar light cavalry, up to the leading Tartar armor Lama Ezhen, down to the ordinary Tartar cavalry were all killed.
At the end of the battle, the corpses of the Tartar cavalry were strewn all over the ground, most of them dead under the muskets. Zong Dechao, the commander of the independent brigade, walked over quickly with a group of battalion and regiment-level officers.
"Hello Chief Soldier!"
Everyone's voices were neat and loud, and Zhang Feng said with satisfaction: "You came in time and well!" ”
Zong Dechao stood upright and said loudly: "Lord Commander, this group of Tartar cavalry has been completely annihilated, what do you want us to do next, you give an order!" ”
Zhang Feng doesn't talk nonsense, the soldiers are fast, since the independent brigade is coming, then there will be a big fight, so Zhang Feng waved his hand and said: "Map!" ”
A large map was spread out in front of everyone, the matter was urgent, and everyone was not particular, they all gathered around, Zhang Feng pointed to the map and said: "Everyone came just in time, in this position, Master Wang has arrived at this location with more than 3,000 people, and then we will have a big ......."
It can be seen that Zhang Feng is ready for the next big game of chess!
…………
On the top of the mountain, Dolgon looked ahead, and a Tartar general next to him said, "Master, the warriors should have finished their work, and we can do it too!" ”
Dolgon looked at the sun, estimated the time in his heart, and said slowly: "Wait a little longer, when our warriors come back, we will start attacking." ”
At this time, Wang Chaoyong and the others have been surrounded by tens of thousands of Tartars, and the two sides have set up a position and have been facing each other for a long time.
However, Wang Chaoyong kept Zhang Feng's words in mind, braked quietly, the Tartars did not attack, Wang Chaoyong definitely did not fire the first shot, and the two sides had been facing each other like this for at least two hours.
"Division commander, which one is this singing of the Tartars, the light thunders, and it doesn't rain."
Hearing the complaint of a regiment commander next to him, Wan Chaoyong said, "Wait a little longer, what's the hurry, wait a little longer, it is estimated that it won't be long before the Tartar should move." ”
After speaking, Wang Chaoyong beckoned: "Camp Commander Sun, come here." ”
Artillery battalion commander Sun Yongcai trotted over all the way, "Division commander, what instructions do you have?" ”
Wang Chaoyong pointed to the distance and said, "Seeing that the red-coated cannons of the Tartars are not there, can our seventy-millimeter artillery be able to reach them?" ”
Sun Yongcai had been paying attention to the red-clothed cannons of the Tartars for a long time, and had already visually measured the distance between the two sides, Sun Yongcai said: "Division commander, the distance is too far, there is a little hanging." ”
Wang Chaoyong said with a slight regret: "The biggest threat to us is the dozens of red-clothed cannons of the Tartars, if only they could be defeated." ”
Sun Yongcai said: "Division commander, the other party's red-clothed cannon is relatively far behind, and it can't hit us here." ”
Wang Chaoyong shook his head lightly and said: "We are in this position, the other party will definitely not be able to fight, but if we rush over to kill the Tartars, then there will be a threat to us." ”
Sun Yongcai said: "Division commander, we have twenty-four artillery pieces, it's better to move six of them forward by two hundred meters, so that the problem will not be big, we will definitely be able to hit their red-coated artillery, but ......"
Wang Chaoyong naturally knew what Sun Yongcai's "but" meant, that is, these six cannons were in the front and were more dangerous.
Wang Chaoyong was ready to take the risk, and with a wave of his hand, he said: "Move six of our artillery pieces forward by two hundred meters, and then listen to my orders." ”
"Yes!"
Sun Yongcai immediately agreed loudly and immediately went to do what Wang Chaoyong requested.
Little by little, time passed......
On the hill.
Dolgon felt a little uneasy, and thought in his heart, could it be that his sneak attack failed, but it was impossible, he had sent three thousand horsemen, and Zhang Feng had more than a thousand people in his hands.
"Master, our warriors should return."
Dolgon nodded silently, at this moment, what Dolgon wanted to see most was the triumphant return of his three thousand light horsemen, but the reality was a little cruel, and there was no figure of the three thousand light horsemen.
"Wait patiently, maybe our warriors will be back soon."
Dolgon was still waiting for his three thousand light horsemen, and at this time, Zhang Feng was playing a big game of chess.
………
"Quick, quick, everybody's here to help!"
The commander of the artillery battalion of the Independent Brigade personally commanded and commanded everyone to erect artillery at a rapid speed.
The mountain is not high, no more than 100 meters high, but it is only separated by a mountain, and on the other side of the mountain is an open valley, where about 10,000 Tartar cavalry have been in ambush for a long time, this is one of Dorgon's killer weapons, ready to kill from this valley with lightning speed, and make a surprise attack on the dynasty.
Zhang Feng had already discovered the conspiracy of the Tartars, so a praying mantis catching cicada and yellow finch came behind and commanded the artillery battalion to explode the opponent's chrysanthemum.
The Tartars were careless, there was not a single guard post in this area, so that the artillery battalion and the cavalry regiment were not found when they arrived at the back of the mountain, and Zhang Feng and Zong Dechao, with dozens of guards, had quietly gone up the mountain, and on the top of the mountain, relying on the cover of shrubs and dead grass, they were condescending, looking at the Tartar cavalry in the open valley under the mountain.
Zong Dechao's eyes lit up, and he whispered: "Lord Commander, those cavalry seem to be Mongolian cavalry, and the number is not ten thousand, but eight thousand. ”
Zhang Feng clicked a little bit, Zhang Feng's first step in this game of chess was to first defeat the 10,000 cavalry of the Tartars.
At the foot of the mountain, twenty-four seventy-millimeter guns were erected, and on the slope near the top of the mountain, twenty-four unconscionable guns were ready.
"Lord Commander, everything is in order, you give the order!"
