Mamluk has two characteristics, one is fast and the other is scattered.

They were not good at fighting large armies, and they were not able to launch knee-to-knee group cavalry charges like hussars. But the target of high-speed dispersion is really a headache for Zhao Fu and the marine battalion under his jurisdiction, otherwise he would not use the marine battalion for ambush.

"I'm not used to retreating." Ding Yi stretched out his hand to wipe the blood and yellow sand off his face, and ordered the guards who ran over, "Send Mr. Yanghao to the boat and execute it immediately." No matter how Xu Bin jumped, the guards politely but firmly put Xu Bin on the destroyer.

And Ding Yi said to Cao Jixiang: "Equipment." Cao Jixiang naturally wanted to persuade, but when he looked into Ding Yi's eyes, he couldn't help but shiver, bowed his head and took the order to get Ding Yi's equipment. Soon, a leather backpack like the other soldiers of the guard regiment was taken and placed in front of Ding Yi.

Just in front of the fortifications, in front of Su Zhen and the soldiers of that platoon, and the more than thirty corpses that had not yet been confiscated, Ding Yi took off his robe and put on a black combat uniform naked, his movements were not flustered, but he did it extremely fast, every detail was practiced thousands of times, and it was almost a conditioned reflex of the muscles themselves.

Then he pulled out the sapper shovel from the head of the Markyumu cavalry, jumped into the fortifications that had not yet been dug, and began to dig hard, Cao Jixiang was anxious when he saw it, and couldn't help but run over and say: "Young master, this is not your job, there is no shortage of trenches!" If you're in a hurry, the old slave will dig it! ”

Ding Yi waved his hand away from Cao Jixiang's hand that was about to grab the shovel of the sapper, and said in a deep voice: "I'm a trench digger." Don't you understand? He pointed in the direction of the remains of the martyrs, "I'm no different from them. It's all about making Huaxia strong and dreaming, and coming here thousands of miles away! ”

"No one can kill my robe. Without paying a low price, no one can do it! ”

Then he silently waved the sapper shovel, and this figure led the soldiers of the other guard regiments, a battalion-sized fortification, and with an unbelievable speed, soon took shape on the side of the Suez Canal. As soon as Ding put down the sapper shovel and checked the rifle in his hand, then the pistol at his waist, Wen Fat Man was appointed to command the battalion.

The twenty horsemen of Mamluk. Leaving behind twenty Damascus steel scimitars, as well as ten uninjured Arab thoroughbreds, and ten steppe soldiers with the best riding skills, they took out from their backpacks many chicken breastplates, arm armor, thigh armor, and lower arm and lower leg armor that had not been worn in actual combat. There is no zài problem at all.

"Just get acquainted with it, don't overdo it, their endurance is not as good as that of Mongolian horses, that is, when sprinting. That's when they show what they can do. In Ding Yi's tone, there was a faint calmness, on the battlefield. There is no need for too much affection, he can put all the sadness. All sealed for the time being, best soldiers. Originally, it was described as a dumb chicken.

Cao Jixiang was sent to the destroyer, and Ding Yi gave him the right to judge the enemy's situation for himself.

The morale of the guard battalion is not high, they are very proud, they can wipe out hundreds of elite people in the old border town with sixty people.

But they had never fought such a battle, and as soon as they engaged, the losses of their side were so great.

The Mongolian horse, which has a speed of thirty or forty kilometers per hour, and the Arabian horse, which has a larger circle and a speed of eighty kilometers per hour, are really two different concepts.

In particular, the combat method of the Mamluk cavalry made the soldiers of the guard battalion feel a little powerless, because they were not group charges, scattered, high-speed targets, and they were really not an easy enemy to deal with.

So some grassroots officers began to reprimand the soldiers: "What are you panicking about? Pack up your gear! ”

"Enter your mother, you won't die for thousands of years, damn dick!" This is the sergeant major using the rough language of the army to cheer himself and the soldiers around him.

This atmosphere is not right, there is too much tragedy flowing.

Ding Yi climbed to the top of the command post, holding an iron horn, and began to shout loudly to the soldiers in the fortifications:

"It's just a bunch of rogues, don't be too nervous!" Ding shouted loudly at the soldiers of the guard battalion in the fortifications, "Zhao Fu led the landing battalion, and he can nail it here for a few years!" What's the big deal? It's just shit luck for them! If anyone is afraid, get on the boat, I don't blame you! Just one of the fucking people, I'm going to keep this class of mongrels too! ”

No one thought that Ding Yi was bragging, even if there were no horses just now, he killed eight heavily armed Mamluk cavalry.

Not to mention that he still has captured war horses!

Morale gradually picks up, leave? Of course, no one would choose to do this, and they could be selected into this guard battalion that protects Ding Yi, either Ding Yi's brainless fans, or fanatical angry youths, they will follow Ding Yi closely, even if it is to the death.

But after Ding Yi's rough words, they were re-convinced that they would follow Ding Yi and move towards another victory.

Yes, it always has been.

Victory.

Ding Yi's banner has always been synonymous with victory.

The soldiers became silent, they had enough battlefield experience to know what they had to do when they were settled.

Wan An's efficiency was not slow, he was brought over by the guards, and when he was about to send him to the ship, he reported to Ding Yi: "Someone poisoned it, threw some animal carcasses in the water source, and then soaked it for a while, and someone took it away, and Zhao Fu found out a month ago." The soldiers of the black regiment and the soldiers of the local Egyptian regiment did not pay attention to hygiene, did not follow the rules, boiled water before drinking, and very few people washed their hands before eating and after using the toilet, so almost more than ninety percent of the people got sick. ”

This is the oldest biochemical warfare.

"But very few people in the Marine battalion got sick because of this, and the disease on a large scale was because of a cold, and I don't know what happened, so it spread quickly, like a plague. The battalion doctors were quarantined according to the battlefield protection manual, but sixty or seventy percent of the people were infected with this cold, high fever and cough. ”

Wan An pointed to the queue of about 100 people sixty or seventy meters behind him: "These are the officers and soldiers in the Marine Battalion who can still maintain their combat strength. ”

Disease can always break the body beneath the hardest armor.

Not to mention this era, even in modern times, it is still difficult to effectively control this kind of influenza when medical development has reached a certain level.

"Let them build fortifications on the flanks, as long as they guard the flanks." Ding Yi pondered for a while, and said to Wan An, "You did a good job, get on the boat, this is not what you are good at." ”

To Ding Yi's surprise, Wan An saluted Ding Yixing, and Wan An, who was wearing a bulky rubber jumpsuit, looked very clumsy and ridiculous when he made this beating, but his words were not ridiculous at all: "Disciple, please fight." He pointed to the soldiers of the Marine Battalion who had received Ding Yi's order and were running to the side, ready to start building fortifications, "If Mr. allows, the disciple is willing to lead them." ”

Ding Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, only to see Wan An confess, and took off his gas mask and rubber jacket on the spot: "How can you say that you have no clothes?" Fellow with the Son! It was a statement, in stark contrast to his previous fear of catching the plague, and he no longer cared whether the deadly cold would infect him.

Wan An is very smart, if he is wearing a rubber suit and a gas mask, the soldiers of the more than 100 marine battalions, even if they can understand, will definitely have a separation from him, and if he wants to stay, he will dare to take risks. He was originally a person who dared to take risks, not necessarily an official who was born as a real jinshi, in order to be lucky, how many people dared to offer aphrodisiacs, shamelessness is one thing, there are risks, and it is undeniable.

He is such a good person, in order to get ahead, he dares to play. Ding Yi doesn't use aphrodisiacs, then Wan An dares to vote for his good, go down to the trench and fight for his life, as long as the fight is successful, he will have a very different natural position in Ding Yi's heart.

"Can you listen to Liu Zijian's assignment?" Ding Yi asked in a deep voice.

Ding Yi's relationship with these personal disciples is actually clear, he knows that many people look down on Liu Tie, Wan An is definitely one of them, although he didn't say anything or do anything to Liu Tie, but that tone, Ding Yi can still feel it clearly, so he asked such a sentence.

"The disciple will be able to do it." Wan An did not hesitate.

Ding nodded: "Okay, Liu Zijian is in charge of the main position; Wan Xunji was in charge of the left position and cooperated with the action under the banner of the main position. Be steady, don't be afraid, twenty against thirty, Mamluk may be able to take advantage of the horse quickly, one hundred against one hundred, they will not necessarily take advantage, four hundred against four hundred, they will lose! ”

"No matter how he disperses, their goal is the people who built the canal, and if they want to pull out the nails of the Ming Dynasty in Suez, they must first disperse these people, so their ultimate goal must be the people, as long as they hold their positions, there is no big problem. Zijian sent a machine gun squad to Xunji's side to build a crossfire array. ”

"Yes!" Liu Tie and Wan An were ordered to go down.

No one asked, what about the right.

Because Ding Yi had already led the nine steppe soldiers and stepped onto the Arabian thoroughbreds. Behind them, there were twenty soldiers on short Mongolian horses, and several supply ships that followed the destroyer could only carry these twenty horses, which were originally used as signal soldiers, but now these signal soldiers followed behind Ding Yi, and even they only had a chicken breastplate, but no one flinched.

Just because in front of him is Ding Yi's battle flag.

From one victory, to the banner of victory.

But at this time, Cao Jixiang, who was on the destroyer, climbed to the mast and raised the telescope, but he couldn't help but curse.

Because he is also aware of military affairs, especially the military affairs of cold weapon warfare.

Looking at the smoke and dust rolled up in the telescope, there are definitely not only a few hundred riders, but at least more than two thousand! (To be continued......)
