Chapter 339: Pacifying Yungui Five


After the expeditionary machine gun group fired, the visual impact of that kind of was definitely not comparable to that of a rifle.The thousand-meter-old charging formation of the New Han Army was quickly torn open ten cracks.All the machine guns swept by, and all the blood splattered three feet, and the flesh flew everywhere.The corpses fell like dominoes, like a carpet of corpses, spread all over the ground.Under such a dense strafing fire, no one could maintain their composure, and all of them were frightened, and the timid ones had already been scared to pee their pants.Secretly glad that he didn't rush to the front, he turned around and retreated.The generals and generals who were mixed in the ranks of "withdrawing and withdrawing quickly" had no longer been able to find their formations, and they all turned their heads, hoping to get out of the gap immediately.It's too late, how can a human leg run past a bullet.As long as the New Han Army jumped into the gap, it was completely wrapped in a rain of bullets.Starting from the soldiers at the front, they fell backwards, and were pierced by bullets layer by layer.The soldiers behind were lucky enough to run to the gap, only a twenty-meter-wide gap, but there were thousands of people crowded, where could they run out.Under the blind spot fire of rifles and machine guns, all of them were pulped by the bullets that followed.For a moment, even the air smelled of blood.Mixed with the strong smell of gunsmoke, it makes people unconsciously sick to their stomachs.The people outside heard the howl inside the broken wall, and although they didn't know what was going on, they all turned around and retreated.The brave soldiers who attacked the city wall all the way did not take advantage of the howl, and the piled up corpses were level with the city wall.The soldiers didn't need a ladder at all, they just stepped on the corpse and climbed the city wall.But if you rush up for a wave, you will be beaten down in a wave, making a meat pad for the soldiers who are attacking behind.After the soldiers inside the city began to howl and retreat, the soldiers outside the city had already collapsed to the extreme.After someone took the lead, the rout began.It's like the waves at low tide, surging towards the back."

Victory, Victory, Victory" The Huaxing army on the city wall raised its guns and raised its arms and shouted, the bright red military flag was waving in the wind, and the dragon on the military flag seemed to roar in the wind, constantly waving its fangs and claws.Although Li Chendian didn't care about the life and death of Bingyong, he was still dumbfounded when he saw such huge casualties.However, the direction of the main attack was not on the north and south city walls, and he secretly hoped that there would be some good news from the east and west.But soon the sound of collapse from the eastern and western highlands instantly shattered Li Chendian's hopes.In fact, Li Chendian's deployment was also quite accurate, and there was only one brigade of troops in the eastern and western highlands to defend it, while the New Han Army organized a siege of 60,000 people, and the outcome seemed to be completely unsuspenseful.The battle was quite fierce from the beginning, and the only regret was that the generals who commanded the battle did not have Li Chendian's brain.As soon as the artillery arrived at the position, they organized 100 artillery pieces to bombard the stronghold of the Huaxing Army on the high ground.Although there were only twenty mortars on the heights, there were 400 shells.The commander also did not count on these shells to kill the enemy, and all concentrated his firepower and opened fire on the artillery positions of the New Han Army.In an instant, 20 shells smashed into the artillery positions of the New Han Army one after another, because the ammunition loading and firing of the New Han Army was too cumbersome, and basically only one round could be fired in ten minutes.And the mortars of the Huaxing Army did not give them a chance to change ammunition at all.Of the 100 guns, only one round was fired.Under the dense cover of mortar shells, it was completely blown into scrap metal.The artillerymen suffered all the casualties and all withdrew from their positions in terror.Although some of the artillery has not been completely destroyed, no artillery has been fired.Without the cover of artillery fire, the brave soldiers attacked on their backs towards the high ground, that is, they used their bodies as live targets.Although the 30,000 people covered the entire hillside, they were repelled again and again by the dense bullets on the high ground.Like the waves of the sea, one wave swells up, and another wave retreats.fought back and forth dozens of times, and the commander of the Huaxing Army on the high ground also used a machine gun at the most critical time to add salt to the Xinhan Army.Fifteen machine guns fired wildly at the same time, and the soldiers who rushed to the front rolled down like a snowball.No matter how large the number of the New Han Army is, they have never seen such a bloody scene.Where do the people behind still have the courage to rush, and they don't care what military orders are or not, they turn around and retreat.Li Chendian's eyes were red, looking at the scene of the rout of the army.couldn't help clenching his fists, and he almost vomited blood in anger.At that time, Rong Lu also led foreign spearmen to the south to conquer and suppress, but Li Chendian still followed this method of rushing and fighting, and he simply beat Rong Lu back.He was very confident in himself before the battle, thinking that Huaxingjun was just like Ronglu, even if they were all equipped with foreign guns, there was nothing to be afraid of.He had made up his mind.Even if it is half of the casualties, Qujing City must be taken.Looking at the situation now, the casualties are more than half.The remnants of the army that fled from the east and west were only more than 10,000 people.And the battle situation on the north and south city walls was even more tragic, and there were not even tens of thousands of people left.Just as Li Chendian gave the order to retreat, bursts of gunfire suddenly rang out in the north of the city.Suddenly, a herald soldier came across the horse, and when he saw Li Chendian, he turned over and dismounted, and bowed loudly, "Tell the marshal, Guiyang Chen Feixiong led the army to help." ”"Great, great, God help me" Li Chendian immediately cheered up his spirit, just now the Huaxing army has consumed a large part of the ammunition, and there must be a shortage of materials in the city.Now that Chen Feixiong is coming to help, the two armies will work together to take Qujing City in one fell swoop."

Knock, knock, knock, knock" The rumbling war drums sounded on the battlefield again, and the broken New Han Army seemed to hear a signal for help.They consciously resumed their establishment and temporarily stationed themselves outside the southern city.The casualties were quickly counted, and the Ten Route Army fled, and there were only more than 50,000 people left.At dusk, Zuo Zongtang and Guo Songtao also quickly gathered their soldiers and horses.After a big battle, the Huaxing army only suffered more than 50 casualties.The fallen soldiers were quickly registered, and the corpses were burned and the ashes were packed under the personal auspices of Zuo Zongtang.All Huaxing soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country will be buried in the martyrs' cemetery in Nanjing's Purple Mountain after their deaths.Families enjoy lifelong government subsidies, whether it is schooling, medical treatment, or housing, they do not have to spend any more money.The soldiers solemnly saw off their companions, and after the ceremony, Guo Songtao hurriedly deployed tomorrow's defensive tasks with Zuo Zongtang.The two of them originally wanted to deal Li Chendian a heavy blow and let him retreat in the face of difficulties, but today they did injure most of the enemy, and they won the victory in sight.But who wants to kill halfway to bite gold, Chen Feixiong didn't know where to come out.Li Chendian made up his mind again, organized the soldiers and horses again, and scattered half of the reward promised to Bing Yong on the spot.As soon as it dawns tomorrow, he will continue to launch an offensive and unite with Chen Feixiong to take Qujing City to the death.Guo Songtao and Zuo Zongtang sat in the military tent with serious faces, and they were about to finish smoking a pack of cigarettes.The two stared at the topographic map and did not speak for a long time."

Brother Ji Gao, we don't have much ammunition left.The soldiers have just entered the battlefield, and if they fight with bayonets, they will definitely not be the opponents of the New Han Army," Guo Songtao thought worriedly, and finally spit out lightly."

This Li Chendian is not easy to deal with, and he is completely reckless when he fights.Do you say that as soon as Liu Kun takes Guiyang, why Chen Feixiong will lead the army south" Zuo Zongtang replied, choking on the smell of smoke and tears.Since joining Huaxingjun, I have been obsessed with this newly produced cigarette.Whenever you are upset, taking two puffs can always calm people down."

It's very likely, but according to the scheduled deduction, it shouldn't be that fast.Guiyang also has 100,000 soldiers and horses, unless someone raises troops to surrender, otherwise it will not be taken down so quickly" Guo Songtao calmly analyzed, and gradually sorted out the original situation.At this time, the communication conditions were still very backward, there were many mountain roads between Yunnan and Guizhou, and the news that Liu Kun had taken Guiyang had not yet reached Yunnan."

Because that's the case, according to the spies, there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses of Chen Feixiong outside the northern city.That is to say, it is very likely that Guo Songlin led his troops to surrender. ”Zuo Zongtang also added, nodding approvingly."

Then we are fighting or defending, with the ammunition in hand, there is absolutely no problem in breaking out of the encirclement and retreating."

Guo Songtao and Zuo Zongtang discussed.Zuo Zongtang hesitated, shook his head and said resolutely, "You can't withdraw, according to my understanding of Liu Kunyi."

He knew that Chen Feixiong was retreating south, and he would definitely lead his troops to chase after him.Qujing City is a key step for us to march into Yunnan, if it is ceded to the New Han Army.If you want to take it again, you will have to pay a considerable price.Hold on for a few more days, and our grain, grass and ammunition will be replenished, and then we will wipe out Li Chendian and Chen Feixiong in one fell swoop. ”"Okay, that's it.I'll go down to mobilize the soldiers before the battle, if it really doesn't work, we'll fight with the Xinhan army with bayonets" Guo Songtao nodded, since he used the rifle, he almost forgot that he also used cold weapons.The military camp outside the city was also very lively at this time, and after Chen Feixiong's army had just mixed with Li Chendian, Li Chendian set up a banquet for Chen Feixiong.The supplies supplied from Kunming have been delivered to the front line, and Li Chendian has also strengthened his determination to take Qujing City."

Come, Brother Flying Bear, little brother will give you a bowl.Thanks to you leading the troops south, otherwise the little brother would really be a little unable to hold on. ”Li Chendian took the wine bowl and saluted Chen Feixiong, although he had a smile on his face, he was constantly making calculations in his heart."

Brother Li, don't be polite, brother, I also failed the emperor's trust and didn't take good care of Guiyang.Hey, don't mention it, do it" Chen Feixiong remembered to cut off his robe with Guo Songlin, and couldn't help but feel sad again, picked up the wine bowl and drank it full.Guizhou is a place where Moutai is produced, and Chen Feixiong has to bring a few jars everywhere.The two drank happily, Li Chendian listened to what happened in Guiyang, and deliberately slapped the table and scolded, "This Guo Songlin is really too much, the emperor is more kind to him than the mountain, how can he do such a disloyal and unrighteous thing" "Brother Li, don't say anything, tomorrow my brother will be the pioneer."

Take Qujing and atone for his sins in order to repay the emperor's kindness. ”Chen Feixiong patted him on the shoulder and boasted, and after speaking, he was drunk on the table.Li Chendian looked at Chen Feixiong and smiled coldly, continued to take a few sips with the wine bowl, and then arranged the siege of the city tomorrow after going down
