The battle went more smoothly than expected, this is because Cun Kaitai is too cooperative, it is simply a step-by-step drill according to the battle plan of the second brigade, and the defensive side that originally had the advantage gave up the advantage and took the initiative to change the role and transferred to the role of the attacker. As for the attacker, who was at a geographical disadvantage, the 4th Squadron turned the disadvantage into an advantage so easily, built fortifications on the high ground, and fought a defensive battle.

Just before the battle began, the heralds came to report that consuls and military attachés from more than a dozen countries had entered the battlefield, they remained neutral, and asked to observe the battle between the two armies, and Cun Kaitai had agreed to their request.

Dong Yunbiao sneered a few times, of course he understood Cun Kaitai's thoughts, he wanted to find a witness to victory, and the best witness was a foreigner, this is a great opportunity to become famous, not only in the Qing Dynasty, but also in the world.

"It seems that it is difficult for our free army to be famous, pass on the order, and everything will go according to plan!"

The battle began in a frantic charge from the Yunnan defenders.

"Boom, boom, boom, bang" Gunfire and cannon fire rang out at the same time.

The Qing troops who charged towards the position fell in pieces, their bodies hit by heavy machine guns, torn everywhere, although the defenders were well trained, the speed of the charge was fast, and the route was moving in a curved motion, which was also correct, but the only mistake was that they were facing a squadron of 1,000 people, a barrage of 30 heavy machine guns, and the muzzles of the guns roared like the sickles of death, harvesting the lives of the charging soldiers.

"Infantry fire can be so fierce? It's simply unthinkable! Wang Mingtai, the co-commander who commanded the charge, was shocked to the point of incredulity.

The military attaches of various countries who observed the regiment put down the binoculars in their hands and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I have never seen such fierce firepower, even if it is impossible for the army of my own country."

Military attachés and personnel of various countries have realized that the days when the Qing State was at the mercy of others are gone forever.

A German military attache took out a pen and paper and recorded the battle in detail, and even the Free Army soldiers' short haircuts were recorded in detail.

The French military attache had a great panic, the defeat of the Qing-French war made their whole country a great shame, and the French army had sharpened its morale for several years, preparing to launch a more comprehensive war against the Qing country, but now they must stop the stupidity at home, and they must not send troops to the Qing country until the army is not strong.

The Japanese military attache who observed the face was excited, the strength of the suzerainty is indeed strong, although the country has been much stronger since the Meiji Restoration, but it still can't be compared with the big brother of the Qing Dynasty, he must correct his domestic mistakes, he can't learn from the Western barbarians, he must learn from the masters of the Qing Dynasty.

Wang Mingtai gradually became numb to despair, and if he continued to charge like this, the two thousand soldiers here would all have to be explained here, "Alas" Wang Mingtai let out a long sigh, I hope that Lord Dutong can listen to his own advice, focus on defense, and never charge.

"General Inch, General Inch, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, we will lose two battalions at once" Wang Mingtai couldn't care about Cun Kaitai's anger anymore, he had to stop his blindness.

"Do you still look like a soldier, that's your guts, you've let me down too much!" Cun Kaitai reprimanded very dissatisfied.

But Wang Mingtai, who was bent on redeeming it, couldn't care about these anymore, and persuaded bitterly: "General, retreat quickly!" Fall back! You can't fight anymore, retreat! If we keep fighting like this, we're done! ”

Wang Mingtai's earnest persuasion made Cun Kaitai feel angry. This is the general under his command? He was so afraid of death that he didn't deserve to be his subordinate. Cun Kaitai thought of the promise he swore in front of the governor that if he went back like this, he would not end well, so he turned his heart sideways, "Bang!" Cun Kaitai slapped the table vigorously and roared: "Guard! Come and drag this life-hungry scum out of me! ”

Cun Kaitai called the herald, and continued his death-defying operation, ordering two battalions of troops to go up and take down the position.

"Report to the captain, two battalions of the defenders are massing towards our positions."

Liu Bingzhe saw that the defenders' formation was still the same as just now, and his heart calmed down, and he said lightly: "Order to go down, wait for the defenders to enter the range of 100 meters before shooting." Since they don't want to live anymore, let's not be polite and take their lives to bribe Lord Yama. ”

After the defenders were assembled, they quickly rushed up to the position, this time they learned a lot, and the points were very scattered, but they still misestimated the firepower of the Free Army, and did not understand the threat of heavy machine guns. Although the Fourth Squadron only had 1,000 men, the logistical forces allocated to them during the war reached 1 to 1, and they only had 1,000 men on the surface, but in fact there were 2,000 people fighting, and because of the perfect supply system, they did not worry about the consumption of ammunition at all.

"Fire!"

The "clack" of gunfire rang out again, and the rain of bullets soon formed a complete covering net, and the scythe of death was swung again.

This time, the defenders entered the range of the grenades, and the grenades fell at their feet as if they didn't want money, and the explosion sound of "boom boom" made Cun Kaitai, who was far away in the observation room, feel the threat of death.

"Retreat! Retreat! The Qing army general shouted! But they had already charged too far ahead, and it was so easy to retreat, and when the smoke cleared, hundreds of corpses of Qing soldiers were left on the battlefield. This defeat can be said to have completely destroyed the will of the Qing army, and how many people are truly brave in the face of death?

Just as the will can defeat fear, so can fear defeat the will. The will of the defenders was on the verge of collapse, and after only two charges, they lost 1,500 soldiers, and realized that they had made a mistake, and they also put away their arrogance, and asked the guards to quickly release Wang Mingtai and call him to the barracks to discuss what to do next.

"Continue to strengthen the fortifications, abandon the offensive, and focus entirely on defense!" Wang Mingtai said categorically.

"Also, we must pay attention to the use of heavy machine guns, Lord Totong, the positional defense of heavy machine guns now seems to be invincible"

As soon as Wang Mingtai's words fell, the Second Squadron gave him a resounding slap in the face, and their understanding of modern warfare and the use of new weapons were really far behind. The heavy machine gun fire was powerful, and the threat to the infantry was far greater than the artillery bombardment, but they did not understand that the position of the heavy machine gun continued to fire for a minute, and the position had to be shifted, because in only five minutes, the accurate mortar shooters scrapped their only four Makqin heavy machine guns.
