"Banner master, you can't rush anymore, the brothers are about to run out."
In Wang Youquan's military tent at the east gate of Zhenjiang City, a general covered in blood rushed into the camp tent and knelt down to Wang Youquan and wept."
What are you talking about, how many people do we have left" Wang Youquan was dumbfounded, and the time for this breakthrough was only half an hour.Zhang Zongyu and Luo Sanyuan were also full of surprise, his Huozi Banner was also ordered to attack the East Gate, it seems that the situation is not much better, so the combat effectiveness of the Qingzi Army is too rebellious."
There is only one hall left, probably less than two thousand people."
The general couldn't stop crying, and hissed and roared.When Wang Youquan heard this, he immediately collapsed on the general's seat, and his eyes were round and he couldn't speak."
Sanyuan, let the brothers all withdraw, we are not the opponent of the Qingzi Army, don't let the blow make any more senseless sacrifices."
Zhang Zongyu was stunned and commanded Luo Sanyuan, he had been in the army for several years, and he had never been so unconfident in his Huozi Banner."
Brother Zhang, we still have the Fire Bull Formation that we haven't tried" Luo Sanyuan was a little unconvinced, and wanted to fight again."
Fire Bull Formation, yes, Fire Bull Formation, how did I forget this stubble."
Zhang Zongyu immediately cheered up the spirit, put on a helmet and went to the front line with Luo Sanyuan in person, standing on the city tower to launch a new round of impact.At this time, the artillery fire on the river had stopped firing, and the wall of the urn city more than ten meters high outside the east gate was bombed into slag, and the ruins outside the city were full of rolling gunpowder smoke and flames.The fire ox array is a tactic invented by Tian Dan, the general of the Warring States Period, which is to tie the blade to the horns of the ox at night, tie the reed on the tail and fill it with oil, ignite it with fire, and rush the enemy to achieve the effect of surprise and take advantage of the chaos to attack.Luo Sanyuan is familiar with history, so he naturally knows this formation, and he has tried it several times when he fought against the Hunan army in the past, but it was a formation of more than 100 calves.This time, Zhang Zongyu made preparations and plundered all the buffaloes inside and outside Zhenjiang City, with a total of more than 1,000 of them, enough to break out of the encirclement of the Qing army."
Woo, woo, woo" There was a sudden whine of military trumpets on the battlefield, and the twisted army outside the city that was breaking through the bloody siege heard the sound, and hurriedly withdrew, and the battlefield was quiet for a while, only sporadic gunfire echoed in the night sky."
Look, big marshal, the Twist Army has retreated."
Chen Bingwen stood behind Qiao Zhiqing and yelled excitedly.Qiao Zhiqing held the telescope and pondered, and couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart, outside the east gate is the direction of the main attack of the Twist Army, gathering almost forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses, although half of the casualties were lost, but they did not completely defeat the Twist Army, how could they retreat at a critical time?"
”After the Qingzi army on the battlefield saw the retreat of the Twist army, they immediately fell into bursts of cheers."
Bingwen, you go and inform everyone to continue to be vigilant, I have a bad premonition."
Qiao Zhiqing looked at the defending army on the city tower, and saw that the direction of the torches had not changed, they were still on alert, and there was no chaos."
Yes, Marshal."
Chen Bingwen replied and stepped back.But I don't care.In his eyes, the Twist Army has been beaten to the ground, where can there be any big waves.It was only a moment before bursts of firecrackers rang out from the city gate.Qiao Zhiqing was taken aback at first, thinking that it was the sound of foreign guns in the Twisting Army, but then he heard the sound when he listened carefully, but he was full of doubts, and he didn't know where the custom of the Twisting Army was, and he lit firecrackers to celebrate the defeat.Just after the sound of firecrackers fell, Qiao Zhiqing finally understood, only to see groups of buffaloes pouring out of the city, and the sharp knives on the heads of the cows were clearly visible.The tail was like a flaming whip, waving back and forth left and right towards the Qing character army."
It's a herd, it's a herd."
The soldiers of the Qingzi Army looked at the water buffalo herd like a wave in front of them in horror, and hurriedly opened fire.After being frightened, the buffalo rushed around the city outside the half-circle of a thousand meters, roaring "moo, moo, moo" and rushing forward like crazy."
Sir, what should I do, the bullets are useless" The soldiers of the Qingzi Army shouted anxiously, the buffalo had rough skin and thick meat, and after being shot by foreign guns five hundred meters away, it did not work at all, on the contrary, it aroused the wildness of the buffalo even more, and rushed forward even more frantically."
Don't mess up, keep shooting, and those who confuse the army will be killed."
The roars of the generals were heard from all directions, and the soldiers had no choice but to continue shooting.At this time, another fire dragon rushed out of the city, and the shouting of killing was earth-shattering.The ground beneath his feet shook with the onslaught of horses and buffaloes.Zhang Zongyu finally led the elite of the Huozi Banner to launch a general attack, and the buffalo herd opened the way in front, and the impact was also unusually smooth, and the long dragon with torches gathered in an instant hit more than 200 meters.After the buffalo rushed to a distance of more than 100 meters from the Qing army, it finally entered the effective firing circle of the foreign gun.Although it did not effectively stop the impact of the buffalo herd, the more than 100 buffaloes that rushed to the front had been beaten into honeycomb coal, and the plasma stained the whole body red.Finally, he fell to the ground with a low roar, and the buffalo behind him couldn't react, and tripped over the corpse and fell a few meters away.The soldiers of the Qingzi Army finally had a trace of confidence, but they were still a little out of shape by the huge impact of the herd.Constantly, some generals rushed into the ranks with leather whips in their hands, and the soldiers roared bravely, and it was only by thunderbolts that the morale of the army was stabilized slightly.The foreign guns continued to shoot in turns, and the dense bullets tore apart the buffalo herd layer after layer after the buffalo herd hit a range of 50 meters, like a strong wind tearing through the window paper.Rao is like this, there are still more than 500 buffalo herds less than 20 meters away from the Qing army.The veterans in the Qingzi army had already hissed and roared, "Brothers, fight, you will still be a good man after eighteen years." ”"Fight, fight" Countless roars echoed in the Qingzi army, and the gun array still did not waver at all."
Crackling" continued to shoot at the rushing herd of buffalo.Because the distance is too close, in the dense bullets, even if the rhinoceros comes, I am afraid that one of them will be drilled into the eye by dozens of bullets, and there will be no signs of survival.More than 500 cattle were shot within a few tens of meters, and the corpses piled up to completely fill the trenches.The Qingzi army had not slackened at all, and the fire dragon that rushed out of the city had already struck a hundred meters away.This fire dragon was not like a herd of buffaloes, but like a sharp blade, it stabbed straight into the Qingzi army."
East Outpost prepares.""
The west post prepares" """Fire, fire, fire." ”Countless military orders roared in the gun array, and dense gunfire roared in the night sky again."
Damn, why can't the bullets of the Qingzi Army run out" Zhang Zongyu led more than 10,000 elites of the Huozi Banner all lay on the horse's belly, and after impacting a distance of less than 100 meters from the Qingzi Army, before they had time to rejoice, they heard the deafening gunfire again.When dealing with the buffalo formation, the dense bullets seemed to be firecrackers, and he didn't care about the loss of ammunition at all, Zhang Zongyu was still secretly happy, estimating that the ammunition of the Qingzi Army was almost consumed, but he didn't expect that there would be a dense gunfire so soon.Zhang Zongyu's expectation was good, there was indeed a shortage of ammunition in the area defended by the Qingzi Army.The place where the buffalo herd hit most intensively just now was also the area where the ammunition was most consumed, and after a round of intensive shooting, the gunfire was obviously weakened.Zhang Zongyu was furious in his heart, and divided his troops into three routes according to the plan, and hurriedly rushed all the way towards the weak area of gunfire, and the two roads rushed towards the two wings.In the face of the cavalry on both wings, the Qing army could not care about returning to the middle of the road, so they could only let Zhang Zongyu rush over."
There is also a dragon and a crouching tiger in the army, and it can seize a glimmer of life in the ever-changing battlefield.It's just a pity that he ran into me Qiao Zhiqing. ”Qiao Zhiqing stood calmly and looked down on every move on the battlefield, and lightly praised this twisted army.Chen Bingwen was in a cold sweat in a hurry at this time, and kept stomping his feet and scolding, "His mother's middle section must have run out of ammunition, and this twisted army is afraid that it is going to rush out." ”"Calm down, as the commander of a division, no matter what situation you encounter, you must always keep your mind clear."
Qiao Zhiqing scolded Chen Bingwen with a cold face."
I was wrong, Dashuai.The subordinates are in a hurry, what should we do now" Chen Bingwen took a deep breath and looked at Qiao Zhiqing suspiciously."
Don't worry, I have already prepared the accompanying special operations team, and this twisted army will not be able to rush through."
Qiao Zhiqing replied confidently, not taking the twist army in the middle of the road in his eyes at all.Zhang Zongyu looked at the Qingzi army that was getting closer and closer, and after spending so much effort, he finally hit a distance of more than fifty meters, even if the Qingzi army had artillery to help it, it could tear a gap."
Brothers, draw your sword and charge me."
Zhang Zongyu showed his saber at the right time and roared at the night sky."
Chong, rush, rush" The cavalry of the Huozi Banner roared, and the bright swords of the five thousand iron horsemen behind him flashed a cold light in the night sky in an instant.At this moment, the Qingzi army defending in front all retreated a distance of more than ten meters.Under the light of the bright torches, Zhang Zongyu had clearly seen that there were piles of Qing character soldiers in groups of two, prostrate on the ground, holding black iron things in their hands, like cannons, and his heart suddenly chuckled.In a moment's effort, the iron thing finally let out its roar, which was many times louder than the sound of foreign guns, and a lightning-like fire dragon crossed over at a distance of a hundred meters
