Chapter 47: Xianyang County is in danger

"Is there any latest information from Jeon Junjun?" Ren Chao asked casually.

"A scout just came to report that the little devil launched an attack on the defense line of the Dongxue Army, but the scale was not large, and it seemed to be just a tentative attack!" Zhou Tai replied.

"If something goes wrong, it's a demon! There's something wrong with this bunch of little devils. Ren Chaoyue thought about it and felt that it was wrong, and couldn't help frowning and said.

"Questions? What's the problem? Zhou Tai couldn't help but ask.

Ren Chao shook his head, then turned to Zhou Tai and said, "You immediately send a company and five hundred Dongxue Army soldiers out of the city to launch an attack on the little devils outside the city, and see how the little devils react." ”

"Order!" Zhou Tai bowed down to receive the order.

Soon, 500 soldiers of the Dongxue Army, led by a company of Tiger Benjun, drove out of the city. Then an attack was launched on the little devils outside the city.

"Bang bang bang! Da-da-da-da! "Fierce gunfire rang out, and the attacking troops were met with stubborn resistance from the little devils, and the Dongxue army was worthy of a rabble, and just encountered a little stubborn resistance, and then began to rout. Fortunately, there was a platoon of Tiger Ben troops behind to supervise the battle, and as soon as they found out that the retreaters were shot and killed, they barely stabilized the formation, but under the resistance of the little devils, it was difficult for the attacking troops to advance half a step.

Listening to the dense gunfire outside the city and looking at the scattered formation of the Dongxue Army, Ren Chao's face was cloudy, and after a long time, he sighed helplessly and said, "Order the troops to stop attacking." The third battalion and the artillery battalion, as well as the personal guards, were all ordered to go out of the city, and the Dongxue Army in the city sent 2,000 people out of the city to assist in the battle! ”

"My lord! There are nearly a thousand little devils outside the city! If you attack rashly, I'm afraid it will~" Although Zhou Tai was impatient to wait for a long time, after careful consideration, he still felt that it was a little inappropriate to attack rashly.

"What? Scared? Ren Chao turned his head to look at Zhou Tai and said coldly.

"I never knew what I was afraid of! As long as the adult gives an order, even if there are thousands of troops in front of him, Zhou Tai will never frown. Zhou Tai bowed and said.

Ren Chao then remembered that Zhou Tai was just a system warrior, he really didn't know what it meant to be afraid, and he was naturally obedient to himself, even if he let him die, he would not hesitate to pull out a pistol and shoot himself in the head. Seeing that the flesh-and-blood iron-blooded man in front of him turned out to be just a puppet of his own, Ren Chao couldn't help but show a wry smile, stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Tai's shoulder and said, "Then carry out the order!" ”

In less than half an hour, Ren Chao led 1,000 soldiers of the Tiger Army and 2,000 soldiers of the Dongxue Army to set up an offensive formation outside the city.

"Artillery battalion fire!" Ren Chao commanded loudly on his horse. At this time, although the horse that Ren Chao rode was still called the black dragon, this black dragon was no longer the black dragon. In order to please Ren Chao, Yan Shiyong carefully selected an imported Western war horse and gave it to Ren Chao as a gift.

"Boom, boom!" Violent explosions continued to sound in the woods, and the little devils in the woods were not moved at all in the face of the fierce shelling of the Tiger Army, and honestly hid in the temporary fortifications, silently bearing the anger of the Tiger Army. Strangely, the woods were still filled with smoke at this time, as if this layer of smoke had a protective effect, mixed with the smoke from the explosion, and the situation in the woods became even more blurred. But Ren Chao can now be sure that there must be something wrong with this little devil in front of him.

"Attack!" The shelling lasted less than ten minutes, and Ren Chao couldn't wait to give the order to attack.

"Kill!" In the earth-shattering shouts of killing, Ren Chao personally led the third battalion of infantry and about 700 people from the personal guards to rush towards the Japanese position. The 2,000 soldiers of the Dongxue Army, driven by the Tiger Ben Army, also rushed out one after another, and the momentum was very strong for a while.

Gunshot! Shout to kill! Screams! For a while, it sounded like a whole and shook the world! Seven hundred wolf-like soldiers of the Tiger Army took the lead in breaking through the Japanese fire blockade and threw themselves into the woods to meet the little devils.

The fierce battle lasted less than an hour before it ended, Zhou Tai ran to Ren Chao, wiped the blood on his face, and angrily pointed to the corpse on the ground and said, "My lord! We were fooled! These little devils are all here, and there are less than 200 people in total! ”

"Less than two hundred! That is, the strength of a squadron! Ren Chao nodded and said.

"Didn't Quan Qizhun say that there are more than a thousand little devils who have come back to the back of our army? Could it be that these North Koreans are deliberately exaggerating! The anger on Zhou Tai's face became even stronger.

"Jeon Jun-joon? He shouldn't have the guts! Ren Chao said coldly, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, the big army of little devils continues to detour, it's not good!" Xianyang County is in danger! ”

"Report~!" At this time, a scout hurriedly arrived on horseback, "Lord Qiqi, the scout of the Dongxue Army has just come to report, and found traces of the Japanese in the small sloping valley, the strength is about 1,000 people, and the Japanese are heading north, I'm afraid they are going to Xianyang!" ”

"Bastard! Why is it only now! Ren Chao couldn't help but scolded loudly.

"After the scouts of the Dongxue Army discovered the traces of the Japanese invaders, they immediately reported to General Quan, and General Quan immediately sent someone to Shanqing to report to the adults, and this time it was delayed!" The scout said as he fell to his knees on one knee and bowed his head.

"Bastard!" Ren Chao couldn't help but scold, and at this time, a guard next to him had already taken out a map,

and pointed out to Ren Chao the location of the small sloping valley. Ren Chao glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning, from the small sloping valley to the Dongxue army camp in the south of the city, and then back to Shanqing, it will take at least an hour and a half to go back and forth, which means that at this time, the little devil may have passed through the small sloping valley and approached Xianyang County!

Now there is only one second battalion of infantry in Xianyang County, plus several thousand Dongxue Army soldiers to guard it. These thousands of Dongxue troops are simply useless, and they may miss a major event at a critical moment, and it may be difficult to hold Xianyang with only a second battalion, if Xianyang is lost, the back roads of Shanqing's various armies will be cut off, and the little devils can drag down Ren Chao's tens of thousands of troops without even attacking. Although the Dongxue Army is outnumbered, the daily consumption of grain and grass by tens of thousands of troops is an astronomical amount. As soon as the Donghak Army collapsed, the Korean officers and troops, which had no combat effectiveness, would naturally collapse. And with Ren Chao's more than 1,000 tiger troops alone, once they fall into the situation of being attacked by the Japanese army on both sides, the result can be imagined.

"Order the third battalion of infantry and the personal guards, lightly armed and simple, and quickly support Xianyang County! In addition, he sent someone to inform Zhao Bin, the commander of the second battalion of Xianyang County, that Xianyang must be held at any cost! Ren Chao gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Order!" The generals commanded in unison.
