Chapter 153: Scarlet Batang

Seeing this, Del's heart was chilled, he knew that he had encountered hard stubble, these Sichuan troops were far better equipped than the previous Qing army, and it was said that there were still large troops behind, if he couldn't even take this small army, he was afraid that he would inevitably lose the fate.

Thinking of this, Del couldn't stand it anymore, and personally took the rest of the cavalry to start a charge against the Sichuan army, this round of charge, Del seemed more shrewd, the cavalry team was as scattered as possible, each knight put his head close to the horse's back, and moved forward quickly, machine gun bullets swept over, mortar shells whistled and fell, and gradually the cavalry of the rebels became less and less, but they were getting closer and closer to the Sichuan army's position, maybe God was still sheltering, Del was not injured, With the cavalry team, they soon approached the position of the Sichuan army.

Just as he was preparing for the final sprint, suddenly the soldiers in the front row of the Sichuan army stood up suddenly, throwing out a black object in their hands, and there was green smoke, Del still had some knowledge, although he didn't know what this thing was, but he also knew that it must be a sharp weapon to kill, so Del wanted to gather the team, but the rebels were only left with a crazy energy at this time, where to retract.

In an instant, the grenade exploded, and the scattered shrapnel was like a shower of steel, and a large part of the charging cavalry was immediately eliminated, and the men and horses fell to the ground, with stumps and broken legs, blurred flesh and blood, and some big ones, let out a terrible wail, and the people shouted that the horses neighed, so pitiful.

Del was stunned all of a sudden, completely ignoring the fact that the splattered shrapnel had cut off a large piece of flesh on his shoulder, and now he was bleeding profusely, and several personal guards also saw that the situation was not good at this time, and hurriedly protected Del and was about to escape, and at this time the grenades of the Sichuan army were thrown out again, and the mortars were also more violent, and thousands of rebel corpses had been left in front of the position.

Del only felt that the blood on his body was rapidly draining, and his vitality was disappearing little by little, but before he died, he did not see the call of heaven, but his eyes were full of people who had died because of his rebellion, and their unjust spirits came to ask for their lives at this moment.

Liu Xiang saw that the rebels had been completely defeated, and hurriedly ordered a team of men and horses to pursue, and the rest of the people all collected prisoners, cleaned up the battlefield, and reported to Qiao Yu at the same time, this time and the rebels encountered, the Sichuan army fought against the opponent's 3,000 cavalry with about 1,000 troops, and its own casualties were less than 20 people, and a total of more than 1,300 cavalry on the other side were eliminated, including the commander Del, and nearly 800 people were captured, and the results were not small.

After Qiao Yu received the report, his heart was also full of joy, and Wu Tong was also full of joy.

"Handsome! Liu Fucheng fought very well, and now it seems that we have overestimated the combat effectiveness of the rebels, and we can march at a faster pace and strive to quickly relieve the siege of Batang! ”

Qiao Yu is qualified to serve as a patrol envoy, his identity has changed, and he naturally deserves the honorific title of the marshal, Qiao Yu also nodded when he saw the battle report: "Back then, Zhao Erfeng was able to quell the rebellion with thousands of soldiers, it can be seen that the combat power of the rebels is indeed limited, but counterinsurgency has never been solved by means of war, and we must find ways to get the people here to support us and make them completely reconciled, otherwise if there is a rebellion every three or five times, how can we still build, and the British will definitely put pressure on our President Yuan." , the British are holding Lao Yuan's life, our difficulties are behind! ”

Wu Tong also nodded, Qiao Yu's analysis was not bad at all, he was too optimistic, "Dashuai, then what should I do next?" ”

Qiao Yu took a closer look at the map, "Chief of Staff, I think so, I personally lead the main force of the first division to smash Batang as quickly as possible, since Del has been killed in battle, the morale of the rebels who want to come to Batang will definitely be low, and they will be able to succeed in a battle, but if these rebels disperse to the countryside, it will still be a scourge, you command the follow-up men and horses to clear the remaining rebels, if you see them endangering the people, kill me on the spot, not a single one will be left!" ”

Qiao Yu's words were murderous, Wu Tong also nodded yes, soon Qiao Yu marched straight to Batang with a large army, after Liu Xiang cleaned up the battlefield, he also hurriedly gathered the troops, originally Liu Xiang had more than 3,000 people, and the rest were all sent out to protect the people, so there were only 1,000 people facing the enemy, and now they got Qiao Yu's new order, asking them to quickly open the way for the army and march to Batang.

As soon as Liu Xiang heard that the army led by the patrol envoy behind him, his heart was suddenly excited, if he could leave his name in the heart of the patrol envoy, then he would not be far away, so Liu Xiang worked hard, used all the captured war horses, selected 500 people from the Sichuan soldiers, and led him personally to open the way in front, and the Sichuan army quickly advanced to Batang.

And the rebel high-level besieged on the periphery of Batang was also panicked at this time, this rebellion was clearly on the face of Del as the commander-in-chief, but he was only a thug at best, the real master was Gongjue Jiebu, he was the largest slave owner in the Sichuanbian area, the number of slaves in his hands was also the largest, and the pasture was also the largest, and this person was extremely hateful to the Han people, and always wanted to betray the motherland, and he was originally going to be captured and killed when Zhao Erfeng put down the rebellion.

However, the old guy used all kinds of relationships to intercede with Lao Zhao, and at the same time promised that he would never betray the motherland, Zhao Erfeng was also worried that the impact of killing him would be too bad, so he shed the old guy down, this time the Sichuan side rebelled again, it was he who instigated it behind his back, and he also had contact with the high-level of Lhasa, as long as he could expel the Han forces, he would appoint him as the king of Kangzang, and the British also promised huge benefits behind his back.

The old guy couldn't stand the temptation and raised troops again, but he was also worried that something would go wrong, because he pushed Del to the forefront, who knew that the Sichuan army really entered Tibet quickly, and Del attacked with elite cavalry, but even the vanguard of the Sichuan army did not win, and the old guy's heart was covered with a layer of clouds.

He invited his chief assistant, the Grand Lama Dorjee, to his tent, and Gongjue Jepo treated the master with great respect and let him sit on the throne.

"Master, now that the Han people are attacking, the snowy areas that kill people have turned red, and it will only be a day's journey from here, Master quickly show me a clear way, how should I deal with the situation in front of me?"

Dorjee was extremely large and stout, looking like the protector of the temple, and the name Dorjee also means Vajra in Tibetan, he raised his head slightly, pretending to do something and reciting a mantra.

"Just now I am communicating with the divine, I have received the will of God, rest assured, the Han people will withdraw from Tibet, we want to build a new country, God will test us, as long as we pass the test, it will be a smooth road, these Han people do not have to worry, the key is our determination!"

Dorjee Shen said a few words, Gongjue Jiebu felt a lot more relieved, but he was not stupid, after all, fighting a war is to look at weapons, not just a few words of relief, so Gongjue Jiebu leaned forward again and asked, "Does the master have any specific methods?" ”

"There are unclean people in Batang, as long as we kill them and use their blood to exchange God's forgiveness and get the protection we deserve, we can be invincible!"
