Chapter 240: The Qing Army's First Victory
On a high ground far away from the Twin Mountain Passes, Zeng Qi, the general of Shengjing, led many generals to watch the battle. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What's the matter, this battle has been fought for so long, why don't you see the Black Dragon Army come out, according to intelligence, there is a Black Dragon Army team stationed in the Eighteen Union Fort?" Sheng Jing General Zeng Qi wondered.
"General, isn't our tentative attack too gentle, causing the regular army of the Black Dragon Army to hide inside and watch the excitement?" Tan Song, the commander of the infantry association, arched his hand and replied.
"I don't think so, I heard that the Tsarist Russia sent a large army today, and the whole territory was pressed, is it that the Black Dragon Army originally stationed here has been transferred back, after all, the defense line of the frontal battlefield of the Wolf Domain is more than ten miles long, and if the Black Dragon Army wants to defend comprehensively, the number of troops it needs is not small." Lu Guohui, the commander of the other infantry associations, also bowed his hand and expressed his opinions.
"Hehe, my lord, it seems that the other party does not have the kind of small artillery of the Black Dragon Army, and this place is far away from the wolf domain, and there should be no artillery support, and the fortifications at the Twin Mountain Pass are far inferior to the wolf domain, even so, it is better to lead the cavalry charge by the humble position, and destroy this militia in one fell swoop."
The cavalry association commander Hairi Gusiro suddenly stood up and asked for a fight, no way, as Zeng Qi's descendant troops, and the only cavalry association in the entire Qing army, it was defeated in the first battle yesterday, and more than 1,000 horsemen were killed and wounded, today it is hard to see a soft persimmon pinch, Hairi Gusiro naturally wants to win back a game, save some face for Zeng Qi, after all, no matter what, if this is a victory, it is the first victory, or even the first victory of the entire coalition army, and it will be spread out in the future, it is also a matter of double face, as for saying that the opponent is not the Black Dragon Army, Who cares about it?
It should be said that Hairi Gusiro's idea is good, but after Zeng Qi heard Hairi Gusiro's invitation to fight, his teeth trembled, no way, the cavalry association is Zeng Qi's descendant troops, all kinds of equipment are the best, even the cavalry guns are the most advanced, but it really took Zeng Qi a lot of silver to raise the team, yesterday's battle, was forced to be sent to the battlefield by the commander-in-chief of the Russian general Kuzuo Siro, and lost more than 1,000 horsemen at once, but Zeng Qi was distressed.
Now that the war has just started, Hairi Guxi Road is invited to fight, Zeng Qi is really a little uneasy, you must know that the Black Dragon Army is not only strong in combat, but also more cunning as a fox, what if you fall into a treacherous scheme, you must know that the cavalry association is not only a lineage, but also a team that saves their lives, once defeated, this cavalry is their last reliance.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Zeng Qi said a little entangled: "I don't think it's annoying to the two masters, Tan Song is the unification, I think the tentative attack can come to an end, and you will still be the main attack, and strive to win the Twin Mountain Pass with one charge, and win the first victory for our Daqing Dynasty?" ”
"Chirp, the humble will definitely fight bravely to kill the enemy and take the Twin Mountains Pass in one fell swoop."
Tan Song's face showed a look of joy, and he hurriedly knelt down on one knee to receive the order, after all, compared with the frontal battlefield of the Wolf Domain, these hundreds of militia groups in front of him are undoubtedly soft persimmons, and this is a matter of first victory, but it is a great achievement, who can not be rare.
When Tan Song got up and was about to leave, he suddenly saw Chris, the commander of the Tsarist Russian artillery regiment, who had been standing by and observing the battlefield without saying a word, so he arched his hand at Zeng Qi and said: "General, look, do you want this Colonel Chris to give a few shots to the Twin Mountain Pass, so that we can also reduce unnecessary casualties, you see?" ”
Tan Song said this, Zeng Qi's eyes lit up obviously, in yesterday's battle, although he failed to win in the end, but the artillery of Tsarist Russia is undoubtedly a bright spot, which is why Zeng Qi at last night's military meeting, he would rather leave two infantry associations to serve on the side of Tsarist Russia, and let Kuzuosco send an artillery regiment to help him in the battle.
Fortunately, Kuzuosco also spoke, and originally sent the Gary Artillery Regiment to help in the war, but the Gary Artillery Regiment was attacked last night and was basically abolished, so the Chris Artillery Regiment was sent, but no matter who comes, there is no need to use this ready-made cannon in vain, and the two infantry associations that I left under Cuzuosco, I'm afraid that Kuzuosco will also be used to death.
After thinking for a while, Zeng Qi smiled at Colonel Chris: "Colonel Chris, how about bothering your artillery regiment and shelling the Twin Pass for five minutes?" ”
After the interpreter translated Zeng Qi's words to Colonel Chris, Chris shook his head and said: "No, Your Excellency General, the other party's troops don't need our artillery regiment to dispatch at all, they are not regular troops after all, and they don't have heavy weapons, you can do it yourself." ”
Just kidding, when the cannon is not worn, when the shell is muddy, it all costs money, and when the cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold, you people don't know it, right?
In the face of Chris's direct refusal, Zeng Qi's face immediately became frosty, and the iron was blue, but Chris didn't bird Zeng Qi at all, after finishing speaking, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the battle not far away with relish, as if the battle was very fierce.
"General, forget it, I heard that the artillery shells of the Tsarist Russian artillery regiment are also fixed, I think this foreign lord is worried that there will be not enough shells for the Black Dragon Army later, so I don't think it is appropriate to use it for the time being." Tan Song hurriedly helped Zeng Qi deliver a ladder.
"Hmph."
Zeng Qi snorted coldly, and Tan Song hurriedly retreated.
……
"Rush."
"Kill."
"If you win the first victory, all the officers will be promoted to one level."
"The first to rush to the opponent's position will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."
After more than ten minutes, the Qing army finally dispatched a large army and began to charge towards the Twin Mountains Pass.
A team of more than 4,000 people from the Editorial Association, divided into two groups, rushed towards the Twin Mountains Pass like a tide.
Da-da-da-da!
Bang bang bang!
"Kill."
"Kill these sons of bitch."
The mortars and grenadiers equipped by the militia regiment, as well as the Makqin heavy machine gun, were all temporarily recovered by Yuehu, but the submachine guns and light machine guns were not recovered, and the water lianzhu rifles used by the ordinary regiment members were also more advanced than the equipment of the Qing army, so in terms of firepower alone, the militia still had an advantage.
Besides, the Twin Mountains Pass is so big, more than 2,000 people poured in at one time, in fact, only about half of them can really be put into attack, and on the side of the militia group, there are many Twin Mountains distributed on both sides, so for a while, the two sides are evenly matched, of course, in terms of casualties, the Qing army must fight more, after all, one is hiding in the position, and the other is on the way to charge.
Bang bang bang!
Da-da-da-da!
"Commander, aren't we going to pretend to fail, why are we working so hard now?" Wu Youzhi, the captain of the second team of the militia group, was puzzled.
"Damn, what do you care about so much, how do you want to fight, just fight how you want, what nonsense." Qiao Jinbao shouted: "You pig brain, even if you are acting, you have to play a full set, can we withdraw as soon as the other party charges, why don't we have a good fight, pretend to have heavy casualties, can we withdraw casually?" ”
"Oh, who told you not to say it earlier, pretending to be profound." Wu Youzhi muttered: "This strategy must not have come up with you, otherwise it would have been used to show off, hmph, Lao Tzu is too lazy to expose you." ”
The battle continues, I have to say, the combat effectiveness of the Qing army, really poor, a group of more than 4,000 people launched several charges, stunned by the 600 militia to be beaten down continuously, moreover, it is still a militia without heavy weapons, if Yuehu will return the dozens of mortar grenadiers, has been ten Makqin to the militia, I am afraid that the current battle scene will be different, of course, if the militia uses a large number of heavy weapons, it is estimated that the Tsarist Russian artillery regiment will also be the first to strike, in that case, it may not be able to hold for so long.
Half an hour passed, an hour passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was twelve o'clock at noon, and the Twin Mountain Pass was still firmly in the hands of the militia.
"How about checking the casualties of the brethren?"
Qiao Jinbao looked at the sun on his head, he had reached the middle of his head, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, why hasn't Commander Yue come yet, okay, at most he will come for an hour, as soon as he comes, the militia can evacuate, but now it has been almost two hours.
"Regiment commander, more than 20 brothers died, and more than 50 brothers were seriously injured, and they were no longer able to fight, and nearly 100 were slightly injured." Wu Youzhi came over to report after a little counting.
was charged by the four thousand Qing troops in turn, and after two hours of fighting, the militia lost so many people, I have to say that it is a miracle, even Qiao Jinbao felt incredible after hearing it, when the combat effectiveness of the militia was so powerful, but this is indeed a fact, it is impossible to fake, originally I wanted to send someone to pass a word to Yue Hu, but now when I heard such a result, Qiao Jinbao said decisively: "Fight, then beat me, beat me hard,......。 ”
Thundered!
Thundered!
Thundered!
Before Qiao Jinbao finished speaking, he saw a string of dark shadows suddenly flying in the sky, and then there was a rumbling explosion, and when he looked closely, he found that the cannonball flew from the back of his head, and then fell into the charging Qing army, Qiao Jinbao was also immediately relieved, and the black dragon army finally came.
"Brothers of the militia, you can withdraw."
Yue Hu took the lead, galloping with a group of cavalry, and the people arrived before the sound came, but the number of people was small, only about two hundred.
In fact, Yue Hu and the team of the cavalry battalion had been watching the battle on a small hill hundreds of meters away, but he didn't expect to watch the battle for two hours, and he was a little impatient to wait.
"Hehe, Commander Yue, fortunately, I don't disgrace my life." Qiao Jinbao arched his hand and said: "If Commander Yue doesn't recover those cannons and heavy machine guns, the ass of the Qing army designated by our militia to be beaten, hehe, this is not a thing." ”
"Okay, don't be here yet, if you use heavy weapons, do you think that other people's artillery regiments are just dry meals, once you let the other party's artillery regiment fire, do you know how many brothers will die in this pass?" Yue Hu glanced at Qiao Jinbao and said: "Don't say anything, directly lead the brothers to retreat to Daming Mountain, five minutes later, we will also retreat, and then we will meet at Daming Mountain." ”
"Yes, Commander Yue take care." Joaquin said: "Brothers, withdraw"
When Qiao Jinbao led the militia brothers to evacuate, the cannon in the sky did not stop, and the Qing troops who were originally on the way to charge were so frightened that they ran back one by one, no way, the prestige of the Black Dragon Army was too great.
"Rush to kill."
When the sound of artillery on the battlefield stopped abruptly, Yue Hu took two hundred cavalry, holding submachine guns, and rushed to the retreating Qing army, although there were only about 200 people, but it was really like a tiger entering a flock, like a sharp sword directly inserted into the Qing army, instantly drawing a vacuum.
Da-da-da-da!
Da-da-da-da!
Thundered!
Thundered!
The two hundred cavalry were interspersed back and forth in the ranks of the Qing army, and after just four or five minutes, they returned to their original positions, but the casualties caused by these four or five minutes of killing will far exceed the casualties caused by the militia group in two hours.
"Withdraw."
After returning to the position, Yue Hu did not stop, but directly led the team to evacuate in the direction of Qiaojiabao.
Thundered!
Thundered!
Thundered!
It was only two or three minutes after Yuehu led the team to leave the Twin Mountains Pass, the frightened remnants of the Qing army had just left the battlefield, and the Tsarist Russian artillery regiment in the distance finally opened fire, no way, this time Zeng Qi was really anxious, Zeng Qi was the chief general of the Qing army, or a friend of Kuzuosco, when the battle was gentle, the artillery regiment did not work, Zeng Qi was not good at saying anything, but the other party used heavy weapons, which instantly caused huge damage to the Qing army, if Chris didn't open fire, then Zeng Qi was afraid that he would really go crazy.
The dense shells fell on the pass of the Twin Mountains, and the explosion was called a shaking of the ground, and the simple positions built by the militia collapsed one by one in an instant.
More than a thousand meters away, Yue Hu and the others also reined in their horses, looked back at the pass of the Twin Mountains, and finally showed a smile on the corner of their mouths.
"Let's go."
……
The Qing army finally won its first victory, at the cost of nearly half of the soldiers and horses of Tan Song's department, and finally relied on the strong firepower of the Tsarist Russian artillery regiment to finally take the Twin Mountain Pass.
After passing through the Twin Mountains Pass, Lu Guohui's men and horses changed to the forward, and entered Qiaojiabao smoothly all the way, until they passed through Qiaojiabao, walked through Mugutun, and came to Daming Mountain, only to find the militia and the Black Dragon Army cavalry department that had been withdrawn to this point, so far, the Qing army forward also began to build fortifications, and the Black Dragon Army looked at each other from afar.
"General, Qiaojiabao has been carefully investigated inside and outside, and the team sent by Colonel Chris has also been carefully inspected, Qiaojiabao should be safe." Hairi Gu Siroyu reports.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and two hours had passed since the end of the battle at the Twin Mountains Pass, and within these two hours, the main thing the Qing army did was to check whether there were any buried explosives in Qiaojiabao.
"Well, so the main force will be stationed in Qiaojiabao."
Who let it is now the end of September, although it has not yet snowed heavily, but the weather is really cold, especially at night, in this ghost place, there is a swishing cold wind everywhere, and the house must be much warmer than the tent, and everyone knows that if you want to take the Eighteen Lianbao and open up the road to the wolf domain, it is definitely not something that can be done in a day or two, and naturally a safe and comfortable base camp is indispensable.
