As a result, more than 100 casualties were caused to the cavalry regiment, and the defenders lost their combat effectiveness in the blink of an eye.
Rushing behind, the cavalry didn’t miss this great opportunity to quickly bypass the sight, which was still shrouded in smoke and swallowed dozens of colleagues. The battlefield killed itself to the gate as quickly as possible …
Soon several cavalry rushed into the city gate hole and dozens of grenades were piled at the city gate …
Ignite the grenade and matchlock. Several cavalry quickly rode their horses out of the city gate hole …
At this time, a violent explosion directly sounded in the city gate hole, and then a lot of black smoke and strong smoke quickly poured out of the city gate hole.
However, even if the smoke has already rushed to the entrance of the city gate, the soldiers of the first cavalry regiment can still vaguely see that the city gate was closed just now, and the dark hole of the city gate has given a glimmer of light.
There is no doubt that the city gate has just been blasted in the explosion …
In the face of this better ending than expected, the head of the team quickly flashed a smile.
After kicking a horse’s ass, he rushed into the gate hole still shrouded in smoke.
Explosions and horseshoes keep going to the battlefield, and it is impossible to go out even if the head of the team, Wen Wuda, orders.
By direct action, the head of the regiment told the officers and men to rush forward and rush directly into the city to destroy the garrison …
So the head of the civil-military figure just rushed into the gate hole and the soldiers followed closely …
Of course, at this moment, the cavalry soldiers have mastered the Grenade in their hands and replaced it with sabre.
Holding high the sabre blade and screaming forward, I rushed into the city to prepare for sending out cold light. Sabre cut off the heads of all the garrison troops who dared to resist the city …
But the idea is good, but there is no way to realize it.
As soon as the head of the first cavalry regiment rushed into the county seat, it crashed to reinforce the musket company.
So close to the battle, the defenders were dispersed by the cavalry before they responded. Facing this situation, the head of the garrison knew that the musketeers in close combat could never be cavalry opponents.
Without thinking, the colonel reached the order to retreat and give up the county seat.
Chapter one hundred and twelve Proactive attack
It turns out that Luo Jingshan, the commander of the headquarters of the First Cavalry Division of Tiger and Leopard Army in Qing Chuan County, is with a full face of serious analysis that the Cavalry Division may face fierce battles in the next few days
If you don’t analyze, you don’t know.
Add a group of Qing Chuan county captive musketeers to move their own forces, although more than 10 thousand people
However, the strength of the opponents I received far exceeded my own …
Zhou Yuanmi trained thousands of elites in the camp, and Kelly Y Zhou may send reinforcements … At any time, Kelly Y Zhou may reinforce tens of thousands of imperial army troops stationed in Sichuan … Not to mention that there are thirty thousand more people.
More importantly, these 30,000 opponents are not only well-trained but also well-equipped.
In the face of such a strong enemy, Luo Jingshan, the first cavalry division commander of Tiger and Leopard Army, had to treat this battle with caution no matter how arrogant and confident he was.
After confirming that he may face the size and strength of a strong enemy, Luo Jingshan finally looked at the crowd and said …
"Brothers, the opponent’s equipment is not worse than ours, and even more than ours in artillery … After all, it is convenient to March, we brought mortars, and our opponent is whether the new imperial army or the fifth army is equipped with heavy artillery …"
"Plus the enemy’s strength is several times that of us. If we defend the county seat and fight with the enemy, even if we have more than ten thousand people, we can’t fight them …"
"So I decided to find a way to take the initiative to attack the enemy several times before the enemy’s main force attacked on a large scale, and give the enemy a divide-and-conquer way to consume the other party’s possible siege forces as much as possible …"
"In addition, even if we are forced to the end, we have to defend the city … we can’t set bare walls on the defense line unless we have to … Everyone is a veteran and knows that the other party has a large number of artillery for artillery support. There is no difference between sticking to bare walls and dying …"
Luo Jingshan words just say that finish a needle hurried footsteps outside the door.
Then the division scout battalion commander rushed into the room with a full face of anxiety.
In the face of everyone looking at their eyes, the battalion commander directly said, "Teachers, heads of emergency military intelligence …"
"My scouts battalion is responsible for patrol investigation. Soldiers have just returned to report that two regiments of enemy cavalry are attacking us quickly … Now a company of soldiers in the scouts battalion is relying on the terrain to rob and slow down the other party’s marching speed step by step …"
"But even so, at the latest, two enemy cavalry regiments returned to the enemy’s city to ask teachers to prepare early …"
As soon as the words of the scout battalion commander were finished, Luo Jingshan’s eyes quickly shot out two shirts.
But I haven’t waited for him to open his mouth and attack the city all the way and take a mass of Zhang Wenwu from Qing Chuan County as if a hungry wolf smelled blood and cried.
"Teachers, you just said that taking the initiative to attack the enemy will send our initiative to the mouth … at the end, I will take the initiative to attack and eat these two regiments of cavalry …
After a group of civil and military leaders finished speaking, his two leaders quit …
So in order to grab this piece of fat, the three heads directly argued in front of Luo Jingshan.
Very satisfied with the performance of the Ministry. After a little, Luo Jingshan directly interrupted, "Well, although there are not many enemies, after all, there are two regiments with confidence in their forces, but they must never underestimate their enemies …"
"I decided to deploy two or three regiments and add two heavy mortars to attack the horse. The chief of staff will command me to choose the battlefield to eat these two regiments …"
"You guys remember that these two regiments of cavalry are enemies now … but there must be a lot of people who don’t really follow Kelly Y Zhou in the battle …"
"Wen Tuan, you won’t be idle. Although you can’t eat meat, it’s heavy and important …"
"Twelve hours, no matter what way you organize the local garrison troops and prisoners to build three chests and three trenches outside the city along the way … after the start of the battle, we will resolutely not bare the walls if we can stop the enemy with trenches and chests …"
Although one company of the cavalry division scout battalion intercepted along the way, it failed to cause too many casualties to the two cavalry regiments
However, not attacking at all times has definitely had a great impact on the morale of more than 4 thousand cavalry in the two regiments
From the fact that they are not even as fast as the infantry at this moment, we can see that the morale of the two regiments has been reduced to the lowest point.
Get the information. The Chief of Staff knows about the low morale of opponents. If they are told that they have been profited again, these morale enemy cavalry are likely to mutiny directly on the battlefield.
The chief of staff of the first division of cavalry led by him did not hide the cavalry as usual to give the enemy a sudden attack and disrupt the enemy cavalry formation at one time.
Instead, the two regiments were formed into two huge cavalry phalanxes to block the road and wait for their opponents to arrive quietly.
Of course, further disintegration of the opponent’s army, all flags that can express their identity as Tiger and Leopard Army have also been erected by the Chief of Staff Department, and even if hundreds of steps are separated, you can clearly see the specific identity of the first cavalry division of Tiger and Leopard Army behind these flags …
Sure enough, the morale of the two enemy cavalry regiments was low, and they finally rushed to the battlefield and put on the same cavalry to charge the army array. After that, a needle of riots directly occurred in the army array …
Because they all clearly saw that the first cavalry division of Tiger and Leopard Army played the banner and was the same as themselves.
So I want to attack my opponent, not what the officers call the new imperial army, but the tiger and leopard army …
But since we are all tigers and leopards, why should we attack each other …
In the face of all kinds of arguments in the army, officers at all levels have not achieved good results despite their efforts to suppress them. After all, people in the flag tree of the first cavalry division would rather believe their eyes than what the officers said
Besides, even if they are encouraged by the officers around them, they decide to follow Kelly Y Zhou to the end.
But when they saw the flag of the first cavalry division, their courage and courage disappeared completely …
In the eyes of these cavalry, the first cavalry division, all cavalry are gods, and they have never lost a battle against such an army. Isn’t that self-defeating?
Chapter one hundred and thirteen mutiny
So the commotion among the four thousand cavalry became more and more intense …
In the face of this situation, the cavalry division commander who led the team is also a hardcore confidant of Kelly Y Zhou, who is very aware of the increasingly unfavorable situation for himself.
It can be said that the longer you confront the first cavalry division here, the more turbulent the morale of thousands of soldiers behind you will become than the direct battlefield collapse …
Under such circumstances, if teachers want to solve this dangerous situation, there is one way, that is, the horse goes to war … Without considering the soldiers, they are forced to fight with the first cavalry division opposite.
Thought of here, the anxious expression on teachers’ faces was directly covered by thick murderous look … The big command people were still loyal to themselves, and Zhou Yuan urged their people to attack the butch army opposite …
No matter how unwilling an officer threatens and lures ordinary soldiers, he can hold back his heart.
Soon four thousand cavalry began to move, and they rushed at the first cavalry division faster and faster.
The first cavalry division formed the front of the army array and saw that although the attack had been launched, there was no murderous look from the opponent’s army array. Ma Bai, the chief of staff, himself launched a psychological offensive against the enemy
Even though the officers in more than 4,000 cavalry are still loyal to Kelly Y Zhou, their officers and men have become turbulent …
Facing the faster and faster charge speed, the opponent’s chief of staff opened his mouth without much hesitation and ordered, "The two regiments will form an attack formation and divide the enemy’s army into three parts … In the process of killing, the enemy officers will be killed first in the ordinary enemy soldiers to ensure their own safety. Don’t kill them …"
"Not surprisingly, there are four thousand cavalry in front of us, and we can capture three thousand people …"
