Chapter 715: One-sided
Faced with this situation, more than a dozen tiger and leopard armies immediately reacted differently.
One of the company commanders of the Haw Par Army saw dozens of subordinates who suddenly fell to the ground next to him...... The facial expression that was still calm just now was replaced by anger in the blink of an eye.
Then, without thinking about it, he ordered the remaining subordinates around him: "What are you still doing, immediately counterattack, destroy the enemy who attacked us, and avenge the brothers who died in battle......
The order was given, and hundreds of musketeers with vengeful anger rushed into the ruins used by the new army of Ganning to hide without thinking......
At this time, their faces were full of anger, not only did they not find their opponents, but they were attacked by their opponents again......
Lead bullets, grenades emitting white smoke, and even a rain of arrows that the Haw Par Army has completely abandoned its equipment...... They all flew towards them......
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Haw Par musketeers fell on the battlefield.
At this time, the musketeers, who had already been on guard, finally found the hiding place of their opponents.
But what if you find it?
The battlefield is full of ruins and broken walls, and as long as the opponent is a little careful, the lead bullets they shoot will not threaten them.
As for rushing directly in front of each other and destroying them with bayonets, it is even more unrealistic.
Finally rushed to the hiding place of the sneak attacker, and attacked his opponent, who was already under the cover of the ruins, and did not know where to hide......
And just when more than 100 musketeers, staring at a pair of eyes, searched for the figure of their opponent in the ruins.
Several more grenades emitting white smoke flew in an arc in the air and landed in the middle of them and exploded.
Moment. More than a dozen musketeers. It's like a kite with a broken string. Fall directly on the battlefield......
Of course, the other Haw Par Army, which has been cautious and cautious, has also become smart at this time.
When the musket could not contain the opponent, he immediately took out a grenade, lit the fire rope, and threw it at the position where the opponent had just been hiding.
The grenade exploded, and there was a series of screams. Immediately after, it sounded in the middle of the ruins......
It is clear that the Haw Par Musketeers, who switched to hand grenades, have paid off.
However, because the opponent is in the dark and he is in the light, the initiative on the battlefield is still in the hands of the opponent.
In this round of small-scale bombing, the Haw Par Army was obviously at a disadvantage, and at the cost of more than a dozen musketeers, it exchanged the lives of seven or eight officers and men of the Ganning New Army......
After just a few rounds of bombing, the tiger and leopard army can still stand in the ruins. There is less than a platoon anymore......
The company commander, who was lucky to be alive, looked at the few subordinates around him. I couldn't help but gasp.
In addition to the shock, a trace of panic from the heart also appeared on the face of the company commander. Then, without thinking about it, he gave the order to retreat......
However, at this moment, they had already penetrated one or two miles deep into Xining City, and if they wanted to withdraw from Xining City, they had to cross this distance of two miles.
However, at least 4,000 Ganning new troops were ambushed at this distance of two miles...... With so many people, will they watch the Haw Par Army successfully withdraw from Xining City? The answer is obvious......
Dozens of Haw Par musketeers, barely fifty paces away, were in grenades, muskets, bows and arrows...... Under the successive blows of weapons, the losses were exhausted......
As for the tiger and leopard armies that continued to attack the city of Xining, or directly retreated, they also did not avoid the end of the annihilation of the whole army......
The new army of Ganning, which kept attacking them along the way, was like a ghost in the night, harvesting their lives out of nowhere, leaving them with no room to fight back...... I can only watch my subordinates and brothers fall on the battlefield continuously......
More than a thousand Haw Par musketeers entered the city, which sounds like a lot of people.
However, after they dispersed, each group of more than 100 musketeers could not stop the attacks of the new army of Ganning from all directions.
In less than half an hour, the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions in the city completely stopped......
Because of the city wall, Sun Chengzong did not know what was going on in Xining City.
However, the chaotic and dense sound of gunfire and explosions directly told Sun Chengzong that a very fierce battle was breaking out in Xining City...... Otherwise, the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions would never have been so dense......
However, even so, all Sun Chengzong could do was wait.
He didn't know if the musket regiment he sent had the upper hand in the fierce battle in the city......
Did the attacking troops fall for some conspiracy of the Ganning New Army again...... If he rashly sends troops to reinforce the battlefield, will he add fuel to the fire and lose the lives of his soldiers in vain......
Just when Sun Chengzong was in a dilemma, the commander of the cavalry division reminded him to think of a solution immediately.
Climb the city wall of Xining City, condescendingly, and figure out the specific situation in Xining City.
When Sun Chengzong finally climbed the city wall, the battle in the city was coming to an end.
Not only that, Sun Chengzong also saw with his own eyes a picture of a musket company being annihilated under the siege of the Ganning New Army.
"The cunning Ganning New Army actually deployed so many people in the city...... One of my musket regiments ......" Sun Chengzong, who was clenched into fists, couldn't help but scold after seeing his soldiers fall to the ground one after another.
When he was done, he directly opened his mouth and ordered: "No, I must not watch a musket regiment be wiped out like this...... To save people, go into the city immediately to save people...... The second regiment of the ninth division will immediately enter the city, give me the remnants of the regiment and come back......"
Sun Chengzong's order was given very evenly, but the Ganning New Army eliminated the Tiger and Leopard Army faster......
The Second Regiment of the Ninth Division, full of murderous faces, had just rushed to the gate of the city, ready to enter the battlefield.
The gunfire in the city has slowly stopped......
More than 1,500 musketeers were either killed in battle or captured by the new army of Ganning, and none of them withdrew from Xining City......
Faced with this situation, Sun Chengzong's face was directly covered with gloom...... A pair of murderous eyes kept staring back and forth in the ruined Xining City, as if they could directly kill the new army of Ganning hiding in the city......
In the end, a pair of eyes stopped directly on the second regiment, which had already crossed the city gate and was about to re-enter the battlefield.
With a murderous face, he ordered: "Second regiment, stop attacking...... Artillery, open fire immediately, I don't believe that the new army of Ganning hiding in the city can still escape our artillery fire...... Open artillery and blow up all the new troops in the city......"
Everyone knows that the army commander Sun Chengzong is in a very bad mood at this moment.
So, as soon as the order to open the cannon came, the roaring cannon sounded outside the city. The screeching of blossom bullets across the sky also sounded overhead...... (To be continued......)
