Chapter 185: Into the Urn
He had never seen such a novelty in the army under the command of Chahar. Usually, I can't even pick at rifle bullets. Save after province, like this, the bullets are like rain, or even if the Chahar sees it, he will turn blue.
"Hurry up, if the artillery has any three longs and two shorts, go back to the division seat and peel off Lao Tzu's skin." Lei Hu, who received Yang Xing's order, immediately gave up the order to intercept the rebels, and rushed to Shang Zhen's artillery department at full speed, hearing a rumbling sound in the distance, like a rolling cannon. Lei Hu knew that Shang Zhen had already fought with the rebels. When he rushed to the battlefield, Lei Hu saw the demoralized rebels and the impregnable Shang Zhen, and he was suddenly relieved.
"Kill!" Without any extra words, Lei Hu directly drew his war knife and led all his troops towards the terrifying rebels like a gale. Although the rebels were outnumbered at this time, a group of demoralized herders had lost their most belligerent capital.
Even if Morrigan had the courage to fight again, the morale of his men had been shattered, and he faced the Feng cavalry that swept in like a wolf and a tiger. Mo Zhigen had no choice but to lead his troops to evacuate.
"Brother Qiyu, you're fine." After some rushing, the burly Lei Hu was also a little out of breath, and rode his horse to Shang Zhen and dismounted.
"These rebels have a good nose, they actually smell the position of my artillery, fortunately, the sky is not right, I asked Brigade Commander Yang for more people, if it weren't for the enough manpower, I'm afraid that today's battle will be a little hanging." Liu Kangning's two hundred people were the people who had just taken refuge in Chahar, and Yang Xing was originally going to take them to encircle and suppress Babu Zabu together, but it happened that the sky was different, and Shang Zhen was concerned. In addition to artillery, an infantry battalion, a machine gun reinforcement company, and Liu Kangning, two hundred people, were under the surprise attack of the rebels. The convoy was hastily arranged in a large circle. Without these manpower, the rebels would have taken advantage of the gap to rush in, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"It's good that nothing happens, with the performance of these rebels, it seems that we have overestimated the combat power of the rebels." Lei Hu laughed.
"Let's finish this battle first. It's just that you're here, otherwise it's a bit of a hangby to guard against the rebels reappearing and be ready for battle at any time, and in this case to transport artillery to the designated place of operation. Shang Zhen said. The quality of these officers promoted by Qin Yu is very good, Shang Zhen has a very high opinion of himself, and he can't help but secretly call a good word for Yang Xing's dispatch and ability to respond to emergencies.
"Qu Kuisu, where is your general Mo Rigen? The large amount of goods that Mukden traded with Lama Tuzhen was only part of the target of this operation, and all of Lama Tuzhen's possessions, as well as the nearby villages, were also targeted by this operation, if due to the lack of troops. As a result, our plans will be frustrated, but the gains will outweigh the losses. "Babu Zab is dissatisfied.
"Of course, it will not affect the operation. Morrigan's scouts have found a Feng army, and have already led their troops to attack, and after destroying that Feng army, they will be able to join us. Qu Kuisu was also a little cautious, those dozens of cannons, and a lot of baggage. If it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to grab it alone, six or seven hundred Feng troops are still infantry, and it will not be a problem to send three times as many cavalry in the past. If you grab something, even if Babu Zabu has any dissatisfaction in her heart, you can just share it with him.
"Really?" Babu Zabu glanced at Qu Kuisu suspiciously. "If you were really just a soldier, would you be happy to gnaw hard bones? I'm afraid there is some other purpose. This time, Tuzhen Horn bought a large amount of goods from Fengtiancai, but my people found out first, and if you have any other gains, you can't miss my share. ”
After saying that, Babu Zabu snorted, with Qu Kuisu's cunning, he would not do such a thankless thing. took advantage of him, and also hid flowery intestines, his mind was really bad.
"General!" An hour later, a large man with a full beard came galloping on horseback.
"A large convoy was spotted ten miles ahead." Dahan said with a bright face, "All I pull are a large cart of goods." ”
Hearing the words of the big man, Babu Zabu's face was quite calm, but the people around him showed an excited look, the Han people were much richer than them, especially the ones on the Fengtian side, and they successfully grabbed it once, enough to eat and drink for a lifetime. It's just that most of the ones grabbed have to be taken away from the top, and there are not many that can really share the profits.
Babu Zabu glanced at Qu Kuisu, "Let's take down this caravan first, capture the Tuzhen Lama who has taken refuge in the Han people, and when your generals come back, let's talk about the distribution of the spoils." ”
"Let's take the caravan first." Qu Kuisu's eyelids jumped, and he knew that his private action and wanting to eat alone had caused the other party's dissatisfaction, but Babu Zabu originally had more troops than him, and now he divided his troops, and the right to speak was not with him.
"Ha Luha, despicable Han people, now the thing is ours!" Receiving the order, Billeg, with a large force of cavalry, approached the convoy like a long dragon.
The people in charge of the convoy scattered and fled, and Bilegg was a little surprised to see this scene, these people must have fled too fast. And almost everyone has a horse to ride.
"Will there be fraud!" Babu Zabu, when Qu Kuisu learned of this situation, they glanced at each other, there must be a demon when things go wrong, such a large batch of goods, there are always some people who can't get in love. If you don't tell the original owner of the money, Babu Zabu thinks that now in the face of a large force of Feng army, he should hesitate whether to give up these materials.
Of course, this is just a hypothesis, but Babu Zab did not expect that his hypothesis would soon become a reality.
Shout. The artillerymen, who had already arrived at the designated place, condescended under the command of Shang Zhen, and the shells with their tails of fire in the air roared and smashed into the Mongolian army.
The first shot was a test firing, and the shells were still a few hundred meters away from the Mongolian army, and the accuracy was quite a bit worse. Even so, the Mongol army was taken aback by the sudden cannonball.
This power is also too great, but fortunately it didn't hit him, otherwise he wouldn't have been shattered, and even the corpse would not have been left intact. Look at the rising plume of smoke. As well as the muddy water flying in mid-air, all the Mongolian soldiers risked such thoughts in their hearts. It's just that the facts soon let these Mongolian soldiers know that it was just a fluke just now. After adjusting the firing of Zhu Yuan, the second round of shells whistled.
The earth trembled.
Two of the seven shells hit a crowded area, causing a bloody rain on the muddy ground. The power of the steel giant beast of the 75MM mountain cannon is something that these ordinary herdsmen have never seen before. Even Babu Zabu and Qu Kuisu's knowledge is very limited. I had only seen a single shell, but for the first time today, I had seen the power of the artillery group. This is simply not something that human beings can resist.
"Oops, it's a trap!" Qu Kuisu reacted first, he sent Mo Rigen to snatch the Feng army's artillery, and now Mo Rigen has not returned, but the Feng army's shells have fallen on their heads, and Mo Rigen is either scattered by the Feng army or eliminated. Or is it that the Feng army has a second artillery unit? The deafening explosion made Qu Kuisu's thoughts a little confused.
After this stunned effort, the third round of shells arrived as scheduled. 20 German-made Krupp mountain guns, one cannon can fire up to 11 to 12 shells a minute. At this time, the frequency is only six or seven rounds a minute. 20 guns in three rounds. The interval is only two or three seconds. It felt as if the artillery on the head of the Mongolian army had never stopped. The sound of shells bursting through the air, the sound of explosions was uninterrupted.
There were more than 9,000 people before the Babu Zabu and Qu Kuisu departments combined, and 2,000 did not come to Mozhigen, and there were about 7,000. Even if the team was not very concentrated, a few rounds of shells fell, and there were one or two hundred dead and wounded. Dead and wounded are secondary. The deterrent effect on the Mongolian army is even more incomparable.
"General, do you want to kill all the artillery of the Feng army?" A daring Mongolian soldier asked Babu Zab.
"Stupid. It's not now to fight. Babu Zabu also wanted to do this in his heart, if he wanted to enter the urban area of Taonan and obtain the most valuable wealth, he could not rely on cavalry alone, if there were these artillery, maybe there was some hope. This kind of earth-shaking lethality will be shattered by anyone who is blown up. However, at this time, the shells fell on their heads, obviously because the Feng army had been prepared for a long time, and it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time.
"Pull all this stuff back! Quick, get out of this damn place. ”
For the decision of Babu Zab. Qu Kuisu had no objection. The scene in front of me is too evil.
"Bahutu, where has Bahutu gone, bring me Bahutu!" Babu Zabulema shouted, as he moved forward.
"General, general, Bahutu is gone."
After receiving such a reply from the attendant, Babu Zabu sighed in his heart and secretly said that it was broken. All indications show that this is a trap set by the Feng army through and through.
A long whistle sounded, and in the distance, two or three rows of about a hundred or dozens of strange-shaped guys slowly drove towards this side, and the speed was not fast. It's just that the body shape is undoubtedly much more burly than ordinary war horses.
"What are these things? Venerable Volosky, what the hell is this, what the hell are these? "Fear comes from the unknown, and these big guys make Babu Zabu and Qu Kuisu even more uneasy. Behind the huge convoy of cars was a black cavalry. Just looking at the number, compared to the six or seven thousand of them, it is not much worse.
"Damn, this is the cavalry of the Feng army, how can there be so many cavalry in the Feng army? Qu Kuisu, where did Mo Rigen die, and he was not notified to come soon, the Feng army was already preparing for a general attack. Without waiting for Volosky to answer, Babu Zabu was shocked again, if he had known that there was such a large cavalry team in Fengtian, even if he came to Taonan, he would have brought in more helpers.
"Finally got you guys in their hands." Yang Xing was sitting in one of the cars, responsible for personally commanding the largest cavalry duel on the grassland since the end of the Qing Dynasty. On the steppe, the cavalry of both sides is coming head-on, and in this case, whoever spins around, leaving their backs to the other side will have fatal consequences. Only by fighting desperately and killing the enemy's army can there be any chance of survival. (To be continued......)
