Chapter 298: Hard to Fly?
Leonid naturally did not expect that in fact, the nightmare was just the beginning. Ivan was also completely desperate about the current situation, just snorted coldly and stopped talking, but sat there, closed his eyes slightly, bathed in the sunlight and began to close his eyes to recuperate.
Leonid couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, and began to close his eyes there, following Ivan's example.
As Leonid said, they did not wait long, and their immediate superior, the commander of the 1st Goksa Cavalry Army of the Far Eastern Military District, Andreev, led the army to Majiagou.
"Hello sir!" Ivan and Leonid greeted Andreev and his party very respectfully.
"How's it going?" Andreev asked coldly.
"Report to the sir, the heavy troops of the Qing army have been surrounded by us in the valley, and there is only one entrance to this valley, and they are already unable to fly." Ivan replied first.
"Then why not go on the offensive? So, what are you waiting for? Andreev asked aloud with great dissatisfaction.
"This~!" Ivan was speechless for a moment.
"Report to the sir, the enemy's fire is fierce and occupies favorable terrain, and we have launched several attacks, but we have not been able to break through the enemy's resistance." Leonid replied honestly, even if Leonid didn't want to tell the truth, after all, those corpses were still there! With such a heavy loss, you can't hide it even if you want to!
"Humph! A bunch of useless rubbish, the face of our Godsa cavalry has been lost to you. Andreev's face couldn't help but flash with anger, in fact, he had already received a specific report before. Besides, Andreev himself had personally experienced the powerful firepower of the Tiger Army, and he knew that these two guys had done their best.
"Our scouts have spotted that a large number of Tiger Ben troops are urgently reinforcing this side. So we must do everything we can to end the battle here, destroy these hateful yellow-skinned monkeys, rob them of all their supplies, and then retreat immediately. Now I order a new offensive at once. Be sure to do your best to eradicate all of these yellow-skinned monkeys. Andreev ordered loudly with a stern face.
"Yes!" A group of Goksa generals responded respectfully.
Soon, under the personal command of Andreev, the Goksa cavalry launched a new round of fierce attacks. Although Andreev brought about 3,000 more Goksa cavalry, the strength of the Russian army skyrocketed. However, the terrain of the valley around Majiagou was narrow, and the Goksa cavalry could not be used at all, and the advantages of the strength of the troops and the speed of the Goksa cavalry could not be brought into play at all. However, the Goksa cavalry still has an advantage, at least they can launch round after round of fierce attacks without interruption, and constantly consume the Tiger Army.
Although the convoy was once again carrying a large amount of military supplies, including a large amount of weapons and ammunition, the transport convoy did not have to worry about ammunition in a short period of time. But the consumption of personnel. It is the transport brigade that cannot be replenished. As the Goksa cavalry attacked one after another, the casualties of the transport brigades were increasing, while the Cossacks attacked in waves.
"Hold on! Hold out a few more hours, brothers, and our reinforcements will soon arrive, and our large forces have formed an encirclement of this odious Cossack cavalry, and if we hold on a little longer, the main force will be able to annihilate these Goksas in one fell swoop. Shen Hongcai raised his gun and kept shooting at the rushing Cossack cavalry, while shouting loudly to cheer for the brothers. Before, Shen Hongcai didn't know Ren Chao's plan to lure the enemy at all, and thought that it was just an ordinary escort mission. The only special thing may be the five million taels of silver, but this matter is a top secret in the army, even the people in the transport team and most of the people don't know that the twenty or so carriages are all white silver. It wasn't until Shen Hong arrived after Majiagou. Only then did I receive a notice and know Ren Chao's plan to lure the enemy, it turned out that the five million taels of silver were just bait to lure the enemy into being fooled, and of course, together with their entire transport brigade, they also became part of the bait. But Shen Hongcai was not dissatisfied because of this. On the contrary, he was unusually excited. As a soldier, who wants to be in this kind of baggage army for a lifetime, Shen Hongcai's biggest wish now is to be able to enter the main force. And this time will undoubtedly be a godsend. As long as he makes great contributions in this mission, then it will no longer be a dream to enter the main force, so Shen Hongcai cherishes this opportunity very much, especially when he heard that Ren Chao was personally commanding nearby, Shen Hongcai was even more excited, so there are not many opportunities to show Xiàn in front of the marshal! How could Shen Hongcai give up this opportunity lightly. Therefore, in any case, it is necessary to block the attack of the Goksa cavalry.
"Captain, our casualties are getting bigger and bigger, and if we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long!" An officer under Shen Hongcai ran to Shen Hongcai and said loudly.
"If you can't stand it, you have to resist it!" Shen Hongcai stared at a pair of big eyes that were already covered with blood, and shouted loudly, "Go!" Organize all those people to participate in the battle, if those old hairy people rush into the valley, none of them will want to live. If you don't know how to shoot, won't you still be able to deliver ammunition? Throw a grenade always! As long as I can still move, I will go to battle, and no matter what, I must not let the enemy rush into the valley. Just go! ”
"Yes!" The officer hurriedly answered, turned around and ran away.
"That's right! That's it! Hit me hard! Come on! Old Maozi, grandpa invites you to eat guns! Ha ha! Shen Hongcai laughed wildly, picked up a machine gun and began to shoot wildly at the rushing enemy.
"Humph! These hateful yellow-skinned monkeys are really hard to deal with! Andreev couldn't help but frown and said.
"Sir, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, and the casualties of the troops are too great if the attack continues like this." Andreev's adjutant couldn't help but remind.
"Humph! Is there any other way for us? Andreev snorted coldly and asked, "The enemy's reinforcements will arrive soon, and if we can't do our best to eliminate these pesky yellow-skinned monkeys, we'll be in trouble!" This convoy was carrying millions of salaries, which were months' worth of those yellow-skinned monkeys. Think about it, if we succeed in grabbing this batch of salaries, what will happen to the yellow-skinned monkeys who don't have the salaries. ”
"If the troops are not paid for a long time, it will inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction among the soldiers, and if these are nothing in peacetime, but in wartime it is difficult to say, and it is likely to cause a large-scale mutiny in the troops." The adjutant replied without thinking. (To be continued......)
