readx;? When the black pressure of the five thousand reserves rushed to the gate of Yunan with neat steps, there was the same blank garrison, there was no sign of an enemy attack, except for a few mischievous fires and some arrows from the shadows, there was an unexpected silence outside the pass, what was going on?.

cm, but at this time, Yubei was in the midst of a fierce battle. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info When the jack gate is raised, the heart of the mountain pillar that has been fluttering and beating non-stop is the real direction. Ten people poured into the pass like a tide, and according to the plan, the gate of the Taiping army garrison in Yubei, which was struggling for the camp gate, was firmly closed, and under the encirclement and suppression of the Northwest Army twice as large as their side, the three thousand Taiping Army, which was already restless, quickly collapsed, except for the small field where more than 1,000 corpses were piled up in the barracks, the rest of the prisoners were imprisoned in the corner of the field by the Northwest Army.

At the same time, the battle to seize Huashuiyu was also sounded. When more than 10,000 steel soldiers marched smoothly and smoothly, and even the entire Huashuiyu fortress trembled and shook with every footstep, the Taiping Army's arrow team, a group of heavily armored soldiers in full armor, did not bring much substantial damage, and powerful attack weapons such as crossbows and catapults were erected on the wall and could not be wielded at all.

CM This is a slaughter of the Taiping Sect light infantry of the Northwest Hoplite Corps, every time he waved his hands, there was always a rain of javelins, this was a special reform carried out by Ling Tian in response to the lack of mobility of the hoplites and it was difficult to deal with the faster movement of the military, each hoplite was equipped with three small javelins behind it, the javelins were not long, only less than one meter, but the suffix was added with a tin block, which could effectively control the flight distance, although it could not be compared with the lethality and effective distance of Gao Yue's spearmen, but it was a nightmare for the general light infantry and light cavalry。 Within a hundred meters, a skilled Gao Yue soldier could easily finish throwing three javelins, and then unhurriedly lifted the spears placed on the ground and entered a defensive attack state.

The small javelin may have limited lethality for heavy cavalry wearing iron leaf armor, but it is more than enough for light cavalry and light infantry with only ordinary leather armor, and the small javelin that flies can easily pierce the protective leather armor and pierce the soldier, and the javelin body with deep blood grooves can turn a strong soldier into a corpse in a minute or two.

The rain of javelins whistling in the two armies when they met head-on, this rain of guns not only made the Taiping Army reserves that had been ready for battle suffer heavy losses, but also greatly dampened their will to fight, and the body in heavy armor was obviously higher than their own soldiers, and the overwhelming momentum also made the Taiping soldiers who were already inferior to the other side in their minds even more weak.

As soon as CM Fu engaged, the three arrow formations composed of the three wings of the First Division were fiercely stabbed like the reserve of the Taiping Army that had just returned from running back from Yunan, one came prepared, one was caught off guard, one was high-morale, one was weak-hearted, one was well-trained, and the other had been lazy for a long time, and the results could be imagined. After the main force of the first division successively broke through the three lines of defense of the Taiping Army's 8,000 reserves and the 2,000 Yunan defenders reinforced from Yunan, the Taiping Army could no longer support it, and the propaganda personnel selected from the original Taiping Army to do the work of attacking the heart also joined the battlefield in due course, after the two thousand team captains first laid down their weapons, they immediately triggered a chain reaction, and a large number of Taiping soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit dropped their weapons and surrendered, and finally in the case of no hope of breaking through, the Taiping Army garrison in Huashuiyu finally joined the ranks of surrender.

The entire Huashuiyu raid only lasted less than five hours, and when the sky was white, the entire Huashuiyu fortress had fallen into the hands of the Northwest Army, and only the finishing work of cleaning the battlefield remained. In the first battle of Huashuiyu, the Northwest Army completely annihilated 15,000 Taiping defenders of Huashuiyu and captured more than 10,000 of them, while the 1st Division of North Luzon only paid the price of less than 1,000 people, and achieved brilliant results at an extremely small price. In this battle, for the first time, the sniper team participated in the battle as a group, and played a very important role in the battle, they sniped the enemy officers and police posts, paralyzed the enemy's vigilance, slowed down the enemy's offensive rhythm, weakened the enemy's morale, and their active figure can be seen on every battlefield.

Shan Zhu, commander of the 1st Division of the Northern Luzon Division, spoke highly of the two sniper sniper squads that accounted for only one-seventieth of the total strength of the 1st Division, in a letter to Liang Chongxin, commander-in-chief of the Kansai Theater: " You can't imagine how effective they are in battle, they can take out the police posts before the enemy police post goes off the alarm, they can shoot the enemy when they organize a defense or attack, they can give the enemy a blow to the head when the enemy army is in full swing, such feats are enough to prove that they are worthy heroes in the first battle of Huashuiyu, and I think they should be credited. ”.

The first division that occupied Huashuiyu in the first time to the Kansai army that had moved to the north of Tianshui went to the battle report of the successful occupation of Huashuiyu, the soldiers left a wing to guard the prisoners, and they began to march to Ping 6 and 6 non-stop, and Liang Chongxin, who received the battle report, also immediately issued an order, so that the Tengger Third Heavy Cavalry Division and 30,000 Mot light cavalry, which had rushed to the southern foot of the Dayun Mountains in the north of Tianshui, quickly advanced along the valley leading to Huashuiyu, and the unicorn special brigade and the third of the Northwest Army Corps followed. The 4th Division also immediately followed up, striving to enter Ping 6 as quickly as possible, because at this time, the northwest had already received a large-scale southward invasion of the Kamans and Pooles, and the number of troops dispatched was unprecedented, obviously with the idea of swallowing the northern part of the Tang River Empire.

CM Yusuf proudly stood at the head of Qinghe Fu City, overlooking the entire Qinghe Fu City, the whole city was prostrate at his feet, and all this was solved in just one day and one night. Yusuf didn't think this was a surprising thing, after dealing with the Taiping army in Qinghe Mansion for so long, it would not be difficult to take Qinghe, but for various considerations, Yusuf chose to stay and see. More than 100,000 elite centaurs are in their own hands, and no one can ignore the power of their own hands, this is the weight.

Although CM had already been mentally prepared, Yusuf was still surprised by the progress of his own troops, and the Taiping sect was about to collapse, and retreated to Qinghe Mansion City in one breath, and the defense of Qinghe Mansion City only lasted for one day and one night, and the Taiping army broke through the siege and fled westward at night, which made Yusuf feel even more strange. Could it be that the combat effectiveness of their own city guard corps has improved, or has the combat effectiveness of the Taiping army really declined so quickly? Although there were the remnants of the gentry in the city to respond, the Taiping army almost made some resistance at the beginning, and later fled westward with little resistance, allowing itself to take Qinghe Fucheng so easily.

cm anyway, he finally won the city of Qinghe, no matter who ascended the throne to govern, his gift is not satisfactory, it is better than those who lost the city, if the wind is not right, he can still defend the city, as long as he has the control of the 100,000 army, he is not worried about anything.

CM strolling through the city of Qinghe Province, Yusuf appeared a strange phenomenon. When the Taiping army evacuated Qinghe City, they wantonly destroyed the defense facilities of Qinghe City, not only destroying all the original catapults, crossbows and hidden forts, The watchtowers were deliberately destroyed, and even the city wall was deliberately demolished in a few places, and a few places were made into dangerous walls, demolition is not, repair is not, and what is worse is that they even deliberately destroyed the gate of the west city gate, and even the area of the city gate hole was demolished by them, it is said that they repeatedly collapsed the entire city wall with heavy cones when they fled all night, but unfortunately they did not want to surround them at that time, surrounded three queyi, and deliberately set aside the west to let them escape, otherwise you can understand why they did this. Now that the entire area around the West Gate has become almost undefended, could it be that these Taiping troops are really desperate, but they will not tear down the city gate and city walls to flee for their lives? Yusuf simply cannot understand what these Taiping Sects are thinking, do these Taiping Sectarians really think that they can make a comeback, and this will make it more convenient for them to counterattack in the future?

CM Taiping Army has fled west, it is estimated that it is preparing to flee into the territory of Ping 6, the second division has followed up, only need to expel these guys from Qinghe, even if their task is completed, they can sit in Qinghe City and watch the performance of those guys in the imperial capital with peace of mind.

cm: "My lord, it's not early, the gentry and merchants in the city of Qinghe Mansion have already set up a banquet and are waiting for you, and several other division commanders are also waiting for you in the city guard mansion, do you think it's time to leave?"

CM "Hmm, I see, is there any news from the 2nd Division?" Yusuf asked nonchalantly.

CM "Back to my lord, there is no news back yet." The attendant immediately replied: "My lord, these earth dogs are really hateful, and they will destroy these walls before leaving, and I heard that the southern city tower was also burned down by them, and it will take some energy to repair these city defense facilities." ”.

CM "Well, pass on my order, so that the second division does not have to fight too much, and only needs to expel those Taiping rebel troops from the territory of Qinghe. Yusuf nodded, thought for a while and then said meaningfully: "Since the gentry of Qinghe Mansion are so gracious, it seems that I can't go for a while, then let's go to the meeting, this city wall repair naturally requires their help, maybe in the future, the base of our city guard corps will be built here." ”.
