"You, how do you know?"

Anderson was very surprised, Ling Jingyang was the governor of the five armies of the Ming army, and he was a senior general of the Ming army, how did he know the secret of the French Empire?

His expression was fully seen by Ling Jingyang, and Ling Jingyang said with a smile: "Don't ink here, hurry out of the city to fight, let the British capture Boluo County, your five machine guns are not of much use." ”

Anderson was forced to go out of the city to fight, Ling Jingyang and he ordered troops in the city, and Anderson was also determined to fight the British cavalry, and the battle was about to break out.

The Royal Cavalry Regiment outside the city did not find the Ming army in the slightest, and the French army was about to attack.

Henry also thought that the Ming army in the city was a group of cowards, and he didn't attack the city, just to give the Ming army a chance to survive, how could the Ming army dare to come out of the city to fight back?

He left only one cavalry company in the rear as a rear army, and led the main force straight to Boluo County, robbing the population and grain and grass.

Shortly after the departure of the Royal Cavalry Regiment, the Ming army launched an attack on the British cavalry from the north gate, and before the attack, the artillery battalion used the only nine remaining breech guns to bombard the British cavalry.

Two thousand soldiers of the French Guard, also led by Anderson, quietly left the city from the west gate with five machine guns.

When the sound of artillery sounded in the night sky, the rearguard of the British cavalry regiment was beaten bloody, although the flesh and blood of the bombardment were blurred, the British rearguard cavalry looked down on the Ming army, turned their horses' heads and launched an attack on the Ming army.

Halfway through the charge, this group of cavalry was wiped out by dozens of people, and when the remaining cavalry continued to attack, they suddenly discovered that the Ming army also had rifles and grenades.

Ling Jingyang still had more than 90 guards left, all scattered among the shield bearers, using rifles and grenades to reap the lives of the cavalry, the British rearguard cavalry was almost completely wiped out, only a few withdrew, and reported to Henry that there was a Ming army in the rear to attack.

Henry had already heard the sound of guns and cannons in the rear, and rushed back with his troops, and found that the Ming army had launched a surprise attack, he was quite contemptuous and said to the general: "The Ming people are not afraid of death, they will be fulfilled tonight, anyway, the people of Boluo County are not fast, destroy this group of Ming troops, and then go to rob Boluo County." ”

Under Henry's order, all the officers and men of the Royal Cavalry Regiment were forced to turn their horses' heads and launch an attack on the Ming army.

In the face of the charge of the Royal Cavalry Regiment, Ling Jingyang put all his hopes on shield soldiers and pikemen, firmly believing that he could block the cavalry charge, and ambush the French army on the side of the battlefield, he could definitely defeat the British army.

Bai Lushui was beside Ling Jingyang, full of love and Ling Jingyang said, "Governor, are you afraid? ”

Ling Jingyang smiled, knowing that this was his sweetheart to relieve him of pressure.

"Don't be afraid, I have so many soldiers, and you are by my side, I will protect you for the rest of my life."

While the two were talking, the British cavalry launched a group attack on the Ming army, and at the forefront of the Ming army were sword and shield men and pikemen, who held shields and spears to meet the British cavalry charge.

The British cavalry attack was huge, and the scene alone could make the cowards tremble in fright, Ling Jingyang looked to the west, and Anderson led the French Guards in the dark, waiting to give the British cavalry a head-on attack.

At this time, Ling Jingyang suddenly regretted that if the French reneged on their faith, let the British and the Ming army fight, and then come out to snatch the fruits of victory when both sides were defeated, wouldn't this be a wedding dress for the French?

Seeing the British cavalry getting closer and closer, the Maxim machine gun he expected never sounded.

He was forced to lead his army against the British Household Cavalry.

The officers and men of both armies roared, and tonight at a great time, the first wave of British cavalry rushed to one hundred and fifty meters in front of the Ming army, Ling Jingyang ordered the guards to open fire, and after a burst of gunfire, the British cavalry that rushed to the front fell a group, but more cavalry accelerated the charge.

A distance of one hundred and fifty meters took only a few breaths for a charging cavalryman.

The guards fired wildly with rifles, returned fire with grenades, and killed and wounded a number of British cavalry, but they still could not prevent the British cavalry from rushing into the Ming position.

The pikemen at the front held their spears and faced the cavalry facing them, the horses and spears collided in the air, and the Ming army's pikemen did not resist for long, and they were broken through by the British cavalry.

Ling Jingyang clearly heard the wails of the soldiers under his command who were cut through their bodies by sabers.

Xu Sheng, who was supervising the battle in front, shouted: "Don't retreat, don't retreat." ”

When the pikemen were crushed, the shieldmen quickly rushed forward, but instead of slashing the enemy, the shieldmen cut the legs of horses.

They held shields in one hand and in the other

Chopped off the horse's legs, but did not achieve the expected effect, did not bring much damage to the war horse, but was hacked to death by the British cavalry.

More and more British cavalry rushed into the Ming army formation, slashing wildly with sabers, most of the Ming soldiers used cold weapons, although the British cavalry had rifles, they could use rifles on horses, but they were not as easy as sabers.

The British cavalry slashed up, and the resistance of the Ming army became weaker and weaker, and although they fought to the death, the casualties increased sharply.

Ling Jingyang was almost desperate, he carried a big knife and Xu Sheng roared.

"Go up, I'm dead today, and I have to buy time for the people of Boluo County to retreat."

Xu Sheng turned his head and winked at Ling Jingyang, and responded loudly.

"Dudu, I haven't drunk the blood of Hu people for a long time with this spear, so you should be optimistic about it tonight."

After speaking, he carried a spear and entered the battlefield, killing the British soldiers who did not dare to approach, and his personal bravery could not save the overall decline of the Ming army.

The British cavalry was stronger than the Ming army, and soon broke through the second layer of the Ming army's defense line, and Ling Jingyang put all the troops on top, but still could not stop the British army's attack.

At this time, Ling Jingyang and Bai Lushui said, "I'll have someone escort you to Boluo County." ”

After speaking, he ignored Bai Lushui anymore, pulled out his long knife, and decided to fight with England.

Bai Lushui hugged his arm tightly, and Ling Jingyang pushed her away ruthlessly.

There were also fifty rifle platoon soldiers beside him, loading the bullets, silently loading the rifles with bayonets, and fighting the British cavalry hand-to-hand after the bullets were fired.

"Lushui, don't listen to me, do you, hurry up."

Bai Lushui cried and cried, tonight is death, and she will also go to Huangquan with Ling Jingyang.

At least on the way to Huangquan, with him with his beloved, she and he are not alone.

Ling Jingyang shook off her arm vigorously, and Bai Lushui hugged her tightly.

Ling Jingyang looked up to the sky and sighed, he didn't want his beloved woman to die, seeing that the British cavalry was only a few tens of meters away from him, and there were not many soldiers fighting in front, he almost shook off Bai Lushui and rushed up to slash and kill the British cavalry.

Suddenly, there was a burst of artillery fire in the city, and Ling Jingyang looked back to see that the breech gun did not bombard the British cavalry, but slammed into the French Guards Corps in ambush on the west side of the battlefield.
