Chapter 475: Breakout
Outside Orkhon City, there were constant shouts of killing.
In the camp of the 3,000 battalions, a force of several hundred people rushed over with rifles.
"Report, the first battalion failed to break through!"
Li Zhen had a gloomy face and asked, "Order a battalion of thousands of households to come forward and reply!" ”
"Yes!"
A moment later, a battalion of thousands of households Zhang Qi strode over.
"Humble Zhang Qi, knock on the grandfather!"
Li Zhen's eyes were full of anger and asked, "Why did you fail to break through?" ”
Zhang Qi's face was depressed, and he said: "The enemy army is strong, and our side can't attack it for a long time, so we can break through...... Fail! ”
Li Zhen slapped the table angrily and said angrily: "You are holding the most advanced weapons and equipment of the Ming Dynasty to deal with a third-rate army like Mobeiwei, and you actually told me that you can't attack it for a long time?" ”
"Back to Grandpa, I'm ...... Running out of ammunition! ”
Zhang Qi was also very helpless, the original target of the 3,000 battalion was the 2,000 people in the Tatar department, so when he came out of the Beijing Division, he was in batches, disguised as merchants or travelers, and he didn't carry much equipment, and he didn't bring heavy weapons at all.
Now that he was dragged by Mobeiwei, there were 50,000 Warat cavalry who suddenly joined the battle in the rear, and the disadvantage of insufficient ammunition was instantly exposed.
Of course, Li Zhen knows what the problem is, but the emperor is still waiting!
If the Tatar Ministry suddenly kills at this time, the emperor will be in danger!
"Continue to break through!"
"But ......"
"No, it's either break out, or, die!"
Zhang Qi's expression was dazed, and he hugged his fists and said, "Order!" ”
Li Zhen instructed the herald again: "Order the second, third, and fourth battalions to break through from different directions and go to the place designated by the emperor to meet!" ”
"Grandpa, there is still a cavalry of unknown origin in the north......"
Li Zhen's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "Go and give the order quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
The 3,000 battalions were divided into five battalions, each with 600 people, and Li Zhen sent out all the first battalions to the fourth battalion, leaving only five battalions around him.
This decision is equivalent to using his identity as the commander of the Chinese army as a bait to contain the main force of the enemy army.
If the 1234th Battalion can break through, then his own situation will be in danger.
After Li Zhen gave the order, she was still worried, but she was not worried about her own safety, but the emperor!
"Fetch the armor and gather the men!"
A moment later, Li Zhen was fully armed and mounted on horseback.
Five battalions and thousands of households Ma Fu came to report: "The five battalions have been assembled, please give the order!" ”
Li Zhen waved the rifle in his hand and shouted: "The emperor is in trouble, there is no delay, everyone will follow me into battle to kill the enemy!" ”
After finishing speaking, he didn't talk nonsense, and rushed towards the south first.
The five battalions broke through from five different directions, but Mobeiwei built multiple fortifications around the periphery of the 3,000 battalions, only surrounding them and not fighting, while the 3,000 battalions only had 20 rounds of ammunition each.
Li Zhen is very aware of the current situation between the enemy and us, and he must not only quickly break out of the encirclement, but also try to save ammunition at the same time, this battle is really difficult to fight.
However, no matter how difficult it is, you have to fight, because the emperor may encounter danger at any time.
Even now......
Thinking of this, Li Zhen only felt a thrill all over his body, and the killing intent on his face was even stronger, he raised his gun to aim, decisively pulled the trigger, and the head of a rebel in front of him bloomed.
However, when the other party saw the fierce attack, he immediately retreated back to the fortifications.
They dug trenches in a targeted manner, and there were more than a dozen of them, which could not only curb the speed of the war horse charge, but also effectively cause attrition, so that the three thousand battalions could be dragged to death.
Li Zhen personally led the team, aiming at one direction to charge, and quickly passed through the first trench, then the second, and then the third......
The further you go, the slower the team moves forward.
However, the other party simply surrounded but did not fight.
The strategic intent is simple, if you go deeper, your team simply won't be able to charge quickly, and you'll be surrounded by me, at which point your rifle will be useless if you are in close combat.
How could Li Zhen not be able to see through the other party's intentions, and now he has no choice.
The men and horses of the fifth battalion continued to penetrate deep into the enemy's ambush circle, and the speed of advance became slower and slower, and finally, a low horn sounded, and all the ambush soldiers from all directions were dispatched, waving long knives to kill.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The sound of gunfire rang out, and after a burst of gunsmoke, corpses were lying in wait everywhere.
However, there are too many people on the other side, and they are everywhere in all directions.
Li Zhen immediately ordered: "Get on the bayonet!" ”
Click!
Click!
The soldiers took out the three-edged military spur and stuck it on the barrel of the gun, closed the safety, and began hand-to-hand combat.
"Kill!"
"Rush!"
Suddenly there were shouts of killing on the battlefield, people kept falling, and the snow on the ground turned red.
Li Zhen was already red-eyed at this time, and he knew very well that as long as he was dragged for a moment, the emperor would be in more danger.
Now there is only a fight to the death, fighting to fight to break out of the encirclement.
However, the number of enemies is simply too many......
"Grandpa, we can't break through the front, let's withdraw first!"
Li Zhen raised his eyes and saw that in front of him were five camps and thousands of households.
I saw that he was carrying a rifle, covered in blood, and there was a long cut on his face, and his skin and flesh were turned out.
"Ma Fu, you can't withdraw!"
"But ......"
Li Zhen pointed a gun at him and scolded impatiently: "Damn, why didn't Lao Tzu find out that you were a bad person who was afraid of death before?" ”
"Grandpa, I'm not afraid of death!"
Ma Fu sighed heavily and said, "But, if we all die in battle, what will the emperor do?" ”
The anger on Li Zhen's face dissipated instantly, yes, the emperor is still waiting for the three thousand battalions to protect it!
Boom, boom......
A low voice rang out, like thunder.
Li Zhen looked up at the sky, and suddenly looked at his feet again, and the earth was trembling.
Ma Fu also sensed that the situation was wrong, and immediately became alert: "There is a cavalry a hundred paces ahead, at least a thousand...... No, at least two thousand! ”
For a professional cavalry corps, such a voice is all too familiar.
Li Zhen was puzzled: "There are still ambush soldiers in Mobeiwei?" ”
Ma Fu looked around, but there was no snow in the sky, and he couldn't see anything.
"Grandpa, let's withdraw first!"
At this point in the battle, the men and horses of the five battalions had fallen into a state of exhaustion, and if the other party suddenly killed a cavalry of thousands of people, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Li Zhen's teeth are about to be crushed, since the formation of the new 3,000 battalion, when has he ever eaten such a suffocation?
"You can't retreat, pass the order down, continue the attack!"
Ma Fu persuaded: "Grandpa, you can't ......"
Li Zhen waved his hand to stop it and said, "No matter what, you have to rush out today!" ”
"Kill!"
While the two were talking, they faintly heard shouts of killing coming from ahead.
Li Zhen immediately raised her eyebrows, realizing that the situation was not right.
If this cavalry is an ambush or reinforcement for the other side, their target must be themselves.
However, he started to rush and kill when he was far away, and this was obviously not for himself!
