Molde led an army of 40,000 at full speed and rushed towards Batavia, and almost at the same time, Zhao Xin led the three infantry battalions of the first town in the direction of Dalawan Bay!

Zhao Xin led the army to reach Mount Kesford in just over a day, but before Zhao Xin could build fortifications, Molde's 40,000 Western coalition troops arrived!

Neither of them thought of it!

Molde didn't expect that there was also a main force of the Tianxiong Army on the island of Java, and the banner of the Tianxiong Army was fluttering in the wind, which was very conspicuous! However, the other party's troops are obviously insufficient, and it will not exceed 20,000 people, hum, the last battle of Medan caught you off guard, and with the strong troops, you almost killed Lao Tzu, this time, it is finally Lao Tzu's turn to take revenge!

"The order was given, the artillery regiment immediately entered combat readiness and carried out a comprehensive artillery bombardment towards the positions of the Ming army, the army of England advanced forward and launched a strong attack from the frontal position, and the French cavalry regiment was ready to storm the left flank of the Ming army, this time, Lao Tzu wanted to avenge the dead brothers!"

Molde yelled.

Zhao Xin also didn't expect that the Molde army would rush forward so quickly, and his own advance speed was already very fast, but he didn't expect that he was hurrying slowly, or a step slower, just climbed Mount Merchant Kesford, the fortifications had not had time to be built, and even the troops had not had time to deploy and deploy, and the Western coalition army had arrived!

I only brought three large battalions from the second town, but 15,000 troops, and now I am a little struggling to face 30,000 or 40,000 Western coalition troops......

"Someone!" ‘

Zhao Xin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly shouted: "Go, go back to Batavia immediately, send a letter to Inspector Tan, we encountered the main force of the Western coalition army in Kesford Mountain, and we didn't have time to build fortifications, so we started an encounter with the enemy, please Inspector Tan immediately send the main force to help!" Order, the first battalion is on the left, the second battalion is on the right, the third battalion is in the center, the artillery battalion and the rocket battalion, build positions on the spot, prepare for defense, and be especially careful of the opponent's cavalry! ”

Fortunately, Zhao Xin and the Second Town still arrived one step earlier and stood on Mount Kesford in advance, if Molde was allowed to climb Mount Kesford, the Western coalition forces would be condescending, then the Second Town would be really dangerous!

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

The artillery battalion and rocket battalion of the second town were unceremoniously, as soon as they came up, they were the first to shell, and they were the first to fight, and the flowering bombs and rockets flew all over the sky, covering the positions of the Western coalition forces, and they continued to explode under the mountain, igniting piles of fires, this time, Molde learned to be obedient, and no longer dared to occupy a place intensively, the flowering rockets of the Ming army were too powerful, and the troops were crowded together, that was purely to find their own death, disperse the attack, and pull the horizontal side of the attack away, even if the Ming artillery was violent, It is absolutely impossible to envelop the whole of Kesford Mountain!

Groups of English troops began to charge towards the hill continuously, and the mountain here was only a few hills, not steep, and the soldiers charged quickly!

Zhao Xin's brows furrowed tightly, specially, this time, the Western alliance army has learned well, and they are scattered to launch an attack to avoid Lao Tzu's artillery, but even if Lao Tzu doesn't use artillery, he can still nail you here!

"Order, third battalion, ready to shoot! Aim and fight, Lao Tzu let them make our muskets powerful! ”

Zhao Xin gave an order, the elite of the second town lying on the ground began to shoot frantically, unlike the Western coalition army, the flintlock musket in the hands of the Western coalition army wanted to shoot, and it had to stand and reload to shoot, the elite of the second town with the help of the firing pin type rear loading gun, were lying on the ground to shoot, either lying on the stone, or leaning on the trunk of the tree, the body was hidden, constantly shooting, and it was to put the British infantry closer and then fight, the British army directly suffered a big loss, the last battle of Medan, the British army did not participate, did not experience it personally, I didn't know that the musket of the Ming army was so powerful, I had to stand up straight to shoot, and everyone was lying on the ground to shoot!

I am a live target, within a hundred steps, this hit rate is too high, on the contrary, it is too difficult to aim at the Ming army, even if I charge with all my strength, if I want to go up and fight the bayonet, I have to be able to rush through this firepower network, right?

The British infantry was firmly suppressed on the mountainside by the Ming army, and they couldn't rush up at all!

"Molde, what the hell is going on? Why is the way these Ming troops attack so weird? The rate of fire and range of this musket are too powerful, right? Look at that soldier, he was still 300 meters away, and he was knocked down by a bullet from the Ming army! ”

Brigadier General Vergenton, the commander of the British infantry, roared, "What the hell is going on? ”

Molde grinned and said disdainfully: "How does Lao Tzu know? The Ming army is so powerful, the last time in Medan, Lao Tzu suffered a worse loss, but this time, Lao Tzu still let them disperse the charge, otherwise, squeeze into a pimple, it is not their turn to muskets, just the Ming army's flowering bombs and rockets are enough for you to drink a pot! ”

The corners of Virhengton's mouth twitched, what the hell is this called? You kid only told Lao Tzu that the artillery rockets of the Ming army are powerful, but you didn't say that their muskets are also so powerful......

"Then you still don't let your cavalry launch a surprise attack? Storm their flanks with all their might, attract the Ming army's firepower, as long as the cavalry can rush up, the Ming army's position will inevitably be chaotic, and we will not need much strength to break through their defensive line! ”

Verhengton shouted.

Molde sneered, "Charge? Are you talking in your sleep? Now the cavalry charge is a feint, which is not conducive to the cavalry assault, and the Ming army's artillery and rockets are too powerful, our cavalry can't rush up at all! ”

"Then why don't you just take Lao Tzu's soldiers and fill it up? Aren't Lao Tzu's soldiers human? ”

Virhengton's nose was crooked, and he shouted sharply.

"Wei Hengtong, Lao Tzu is the commander-in-chief of the army, on the battlefield, you must listen to me, your soldiers are people, aren't Lao Tzu's soldiers? In the first battle of Medan, our French soldiers suffered more than 10,000 casualties! How many of you have just lost a few people and are squeaking and screaming here? Wait for the opportunity, you must wait for the Ming artillery fire to stop, and the cavalry can launch a charge, otherwise, it will be in vain! ”

Molde sneered, "Don't worry, as long as the Ming army's artillery fire stops, Lao Tzu will naturally press the cavalry up!" ”

As soon as Molde's words fell, the artillery of the Ming army really stopped.

Virhengtong sneered: "Molde, there is nothing to say now, right?" You let the cavalry charge, huh? ”

Molde snorted coldly, very dissatisfied, specially, this Ming army's artillery is too uncooperative, right?

"Order, Royal Cavalry Regiment, attack the flank of the Ming army!"
