At this time, there was a groan in the Horn Temple, the Mongolian army was attacking too fiercely before, let them come in, and everyone would die. From the officers to the soldiers, everyone tensed their nerves and tried their best to resist the attack of the Mongol army. At this time, once the sharp sword hanging over his head was taken away, his spirit was relaxed, and the fatigue after a long battle surged like a tide. Hunger, fatigue, cold.

"Hurry up and make a fire, it's cold, ahhh

"At such a late hour, the rebels probably won't fight again."

"The rebels are also made of meat, so I don't believe they won't get tired."

"Everyone, take out everything you can eat at once, and gather after eating!" Liu Kangning had a gloomy face, just in the previous fierce battle, the hardcore brother who had been in the army with him for four or five years was killed, so that the anger in his heart was still burning until now, and no matter how cold and rainy it was, it could not be extinguished.

"What is this for? I won't get carried away and want to continue to consume the rebels. ”

Many people were eating dry food and roasting the fire and guessing that they were not willing to fight against the Mongolian army any longer, at least not until the reinforcements arrived. It's just that their speculation has become a reality.

"Everyone, listen, although the Mongolian army is now temporarily retreating, but it may turn back at any time to chase and kill, there are a large number of rebels in the south and north of Tuquan, we can only flee to the east, but there are at least more than two hundred miles from here to the east, the rebels are many, the speed is fast, and there is definitely no way to escape from the city. I know that you are tired, but the rebels are also people, and they also carry two shoulders and one head, and they should be more tired than us when they come from afar. Therefore, Lao Tzu is now going to take advantage of the night to attack the camp of the rebels just now. They robbed them of their clothes, robbed them of their food, and robbed them of their horses, so that they could escape smoothly to the east, in the east, in Taonan, where there were large groups of Feng troops. As long as we get to the vicinity of Taonan, we will be safe! Liu Kangning said loudly.

"Camp, although you have a point, but this black light is blinding, the rebels have withdrawn for so long, they must have run away, where do we go to find someone?" At that moment, someone was unhappy and said, "Besides, there are more rebels than us, even if we kill them." I may not be able to beat it. ”

"If you were a rebel, would you be able to guess that we would dare to kill a horse pistol after being hunted down all this time? They burned and looted all the way, robbed a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, are you not tempted at all, it is the black light that blinds the fire, it is easy to do things, according to Lao Tzu, it is not fucking interesting to be a soldier on the grassland. The military was detained from time to time, and he often lacked food and clothing. It's better to take the risk. After taking this vote, he left directly, and he didn't suffer from this bird on the grassland, what do you say? Liu Kangning knew that these soldiers were all old oilers, and it would definitely not work to give orders bluntly, and they had to be coerced and enticed.

"Alright, let's do it!"

"It's done. The camp is right, when he came to this grassland, he couldn't save money to beg his daughter-in-law, not to mention, it was difficult to even fill his stomach, and Lao Tzu quit. After doing this vote, he left directly. Several of Liu Kangning's henchmen responded.

"It's done!"

"It's done!"

"Well, the brothers who don't want to go are here to take care of the wounded, and if we don't come back by tomorrow morning, you can find your own way back. The others follow me. Liu Kangning waved his hand and led the remaining two hundred and thirty people to search for the distance following the horseshoe prints left by the Mongolian army on the ground.

The winter rain comes and goes quickly, but the cold and rancid wind blows on people, making people shiver with cold.

"These bastards will really escape, camp, and if you can't find anyone again, the brothers are afraid that they won't be able to hold on." Xu Yanqing shuddered, and walked for more than half an hour, except for the darkness, there was not even a shadow to be seen, only the wolf howl in the night made this silent grassland a little lively.

"Let the brothers eat everything they can eat, the rebels will never think that we will dare to kill a horse pistol, we will definitely not be able to escape, there is no way to camp in this weather, it must be in a nearby village."

"See, up front!" Sure enough, as Liu Kangning guessed, the cold and tired Duo Mo also didn't take his subordinates to run far, so he found a nearby village, robbed the house and lit a few fires, and killed cattle and sheep to settle down nearby. As for the Han army just now, it is only half of their strength and a little less, and they are more tired than them after fighting for so long. They don't go to trouble the Han army, how dare the Han army come over again, and besides, the road is pitch black and the weather is cold, so it is not so easy to find it.

The sentry set up outside by Dormer also thought the same way, and he came out reluctantly, and then directly found a relatively warm place to eat something and fell asleep.

Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government began to organize immigration in order to alleviate the financial pressure, resettle the victims, and strengthen its control over the northeast and Mongolia. Han Chinese immigrants brought farming to the grasslands. The houses in this small village were built by the Han Chinese peasants who came here, but at this time it was inevitable that the rebels would be cheaper.

"Everyone's hands and feet are light, touch it first, solve some problems, and then shout in unison to kill if you can't hide it, tonight you have to break the guts of these people, so that these bastards understand that we are not easy to mess with." Liu Kangning's dirty face was murderous and looked a little hideous.

"Listen to the camp, kill all these bastards." Thinking of being pressed and beaten by this group of rebels just now, many acquaintances were either killed or disabled in battle, and these soldiers were on fire in their hearts at this time, looking at the defenseless Mongolian army, like looking at a group of cake sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

"Let's go, kill these rebels, these horses alone are enough for us to make a big pen." Liu Kangning waved his hand and took advantage of the night to cover up the past.

The knife grazed the necks of two sentry posts, who were killed in a daze while they were still asleep.

The other soldiers were also not slow, and in addition to the guns, many sabers were thrown aside, which became a sharp weapon for the 3rd Battalion to retaliate at this time.

The knife fell, the blood gushed out, and in a moment's effort, dozens of people were silently pumping animals on the ground. Due to overwork, most of the Mongolian soldiers slept very hard, and only a few were injured and infected with the wind and cold, and at this time they lay there and turned on their sides, and it was difficult to sleep. When I looked closely, I saw that it was the Han army that had fought with them in the dark, and then I looked at the bloody sabers in their hands, and I couldn't help but feel dead.

"The Han army is coming, the Han army is coming!"

"Kill him!" Someone whispered angrily, but the shout just now had already awakened the other Mongolian people.

"I can't hide it, kill!" At this time when the visibility of the night was not high, the two armies were in a state of confusion, and the saber was far better than the rifle. Although the Mongolian army reacted at this time, Liu Kangning had already led people to rob the Mongolian army of a large number of sabers, and he came prepared. A considerable part of the chaotic Mongol army had already been killed in their sleep, and the rest woke up in a daze, unable to organize effective resistance in a hurry. Sporadic revolts have not been able to shake the deterioration of the situation.

Defeating twice as many enemies as you, inflicting heavy casualties on the rebels, and capturing a lot of them, is an impressive record so far. Compared with Liu Changning, in this war that spread throughout Inner Mongolia, the Beiyang Army performed unsatisfactorily. In the western part of Inner Mongolia, Wang De and others led thousands of rebels to invade the central and western regions of Inner Mongolia, and the key passes of Pangjiang, Baishentu, and Dashetai fell one after another, and the banditry atmosphere was quite rampant. Wang De also sent an army to invade the Houtao area, coerced the alliance flags to send troops, and made a detour to besiege Baotou, so "the Jin-Gansu border was in an uproar." The rebels in the middle road successively captured the Lao Ye Temple, the Bailing Temple, and the Black Sand Earth Temple. On the grassland, from the princes and nobles to the poor herdsmen, most of them believe in Buddhism. Most of the buildings in Mongolia are not very majestic. The temples in each area are almost the tallest and strongest buildings, and they are built on the mountain, which is very suitable for the base area. The rebels relied on these places to launch and infest the localities.

In the east, on the battlefield centered on the West Sunit and the Pangjiang River, the Beiyang Army also suffered a lot of losses, if it were not for the strong troops, I was afraid that it would be difficult to protect itself at this time.

"A pot of good rice is boiled into raw rice." Qin Yu threw the battle report from the front on the table and shook his head, the Beiyang local army deployed in Rehe, Chahar, and Suiyuan added up to more than 40,000 on the books, forty or fifty machine guns, and more than 50 cannons, and in the later period, no less than 25,000 reinforcements were put in, and only more than 20,000 Outer Mongolian troops were dealt with.

Qin Yu couldn't help but think that during the European War in later generations, Japan was in every possible way with the Republic of China, and was very arrogant, no wonder the Japanese were late, the performance of the Beiyang Army in this battle was really difficult to make the powers look at it differently, even if the most elite Beiyang Army was in Guanzhong, ready to solve the threat of the Kuomintang by force, but the foreigners were realistic, and the overall weakness of the Beiyang Army still could not hide from the eyes of the Japanese.

"The battle was not so ugly, the armies of Chahar, Suiyuan, and Rehe were under the control of different cities, and each fought its own, and the reinforcements sent by the central government also had their own command, and no one obeyed anyone. Naturally, the rebels could take advantage of it, and the Russian commanders who went south with the rebels were not vegetarians. Most of them experienced the tragedy of the Russo-Japanese War and had rich experience in actual combat. "Lan Tianwei hit the nail on the head.

"Well, if you lose the battle and make a fool of yourself, you wish that others would also make a fool of yourself, this Lu Yongxiang is a living example." Qin Yu shook his head and said, "I can't control other positions, if anyone in the Feng army dares to do this, I will directly drag people out of the army and shoot them, so as not to let them live in the world and harm others and themselves." ”

"Master! The things from Taonan have arrived. Wang Yuhai knocked on the door outside.

"Really? I'll take a look. Qin Yu stood up happily. (To be continued......)
