Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 239 Showdown 9

The 140 gunmen were originally placed by Zhou Shixiang at the front to block the enemy in order to delay the Qing army's cavalry. There was no support force on the left and right flanks. Therefore, after the Qing army rushed over, these soldiers of the guard battalion who could no longer open their guns could only face the Qing army. The slaughter of the cavalry.

The dozens of gunmen at the front saw that the Qing army cavalry had rushed over, knowing that they could not escape and that they would not survive, and they waved their guns and shouted and rushed towards the Qing army, hoping to use their own sacrifices. To fight for the time for the following brigade to deploy, and to exchange hope for the parents, wives and children in the city.

The heroic act was quickly shattered under the hooves of the warhorse. The time was so short that it could be described as a few breaths. However, the sacrifice of these warriors made the Taiping soldiers who had already been defended in the rear aroused the spirit of mourning and ignited the Jedi. The will to fight to the death also caused the dozens of Qing troops who were riding at the forefront to instinctively rein in their prancing horses, so as not to trip over the corpses on the ground.

"Open the gun, open the gun! Kill these dogs, my mother-in-law!"

Seeing dozens of subordinates rushing towards the Qing army without any hesitation, the bald Jianghe's eyes were red, he roared loudly, and there was a sound of crying in his nostrils. He screamed so hard that his voice was broken, but his voice was quickly obscured by the sound of the Qing army's hoofs and shouts of killing.

The long knife was constantly swung down, the corpses of people were constantly separated, and there were people who fell to the ground screaming. The meager troops, the almost powerless gunmen, were instantly slaughtered.

"Damn it, I'm going to fight with you guys!"

The death of his subordinates made the bald man go wild, and he couldn't roar anything. He screamed in a voice that he couldn't understand, and rushed towards a galloping war horse. The knight on the horse was a young Qing soldier. When he saw a bald man who looked like a Taiping army officer rushing towards him, he smiled contemptuously, and without wielding a knife, he slammed his horse towards the bald man with his legs tied.

Seeing that the bald man was about to be hit by the war horse, a gunman jumped up and pounced. Both hands tightly grabbed the mane on the horse's head, causing the horse to neigh and scream, jumping two times in a row, and also startling the Qing soldiers to change color in shock. The bald man has been dragged back by his subordinates.

….

The first to lead the troops to the Taiping Army was the leader of the blue flag, Zeng Shicheng. He was from Gaizhou, Liaodong. Before entering the customs, he was just an ordinary vest soldier. He is in his prime and is physically strong. Even if there are more layers of iron armor on his body than his subordinates, it does not affect his flexibility on horseback. After dodging the thin fire cannon fire of the Taiping army in front, Zeng Shicheng cut off the neck of a Taiping army with a perfect slash. When the Taiping Army was unwilling to fall to the ground, Zeng Shicheng was full of admiration. This is the first Nanmanzi he has seen since he went south to bravely rush to him, instead of just fleeing and ignorant of his backs wide open.

After crushing and killing these dozens of very brave Taiping troops, Zeng Shicheng waved his sword and led his subordinates in the vests to charge towards the Taiping troops who were fleeing to the rear.

Qin Guocheng was overjoyed by the successful breakthrough ahead and the retreat of the Taiping Army. Those flag soldiers hiding behind fences and mounds also saw the successful breakthrough of their own soldiers in front. One by one, as if victory was in sight, they roared and followed their own soldiers to kill the Taiping Army. However, most of these flag soldiers were out of physical strength because they had fought against the Taiping army many times before, so even though the spirit of the army was greatly boosted. However, he couldn't run, so he could only dash forward from behind the soldiers.

kill! Kill these savages! Kill, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, for the prince. For the prestige of God helping soldiers, kill!

Qin Guocheng was excited, this kind of galloping on the battlefield. The feeling of chasing and killing opponents is really exciting. He has had enough of that kind of battle to storm and climb the city. In his opinion, that kind of battle that completely consumes human life is definitely not what a wise general should do. When a wise general fights a war, the first thing to do is to promote his strengths and abandon his weaknesses. His Royal Highness is still too impatient and too tender.

"Sure enough, it is the number one army under my Pingnan clan! The thieves are unbearable!"

Ban Zhifu, who was closely watching the battle of the soldiers from his own family, saw the scene of the soldiers of his own family showing their majesty from the telescopic mirror, and he was relieved. After the attack.

The Qing army cavalry succeeded in one hit and continued to chase and kill along with the defeated troops of the Taiping army. The Qing soldiers on the horse were all invincible, as if the Taiping army in front were waiting for them with their heads set up one by one. They did not see it at all when it was taken away. In their eyes, the Taiping Army, who was waiting like a lamb to be slaughtered, was nervous and fearful, but it established a line of defense in an orderly manner, relying on various terrains under the command of the officers.

Fences, trenches, mounds, caltrops, tents, vehicles….

In the shortest possible time, Zhou Shixiang used all available terrain on the battlefield to deploy all the Taiping troops that could be used. The biggest advantage of the Qing army now is the cavalry, and these cavalry are also the biggest threat to the Taiping army. Zhou Shixiang had no cavalry strength that could compete with the opponent, so all he could do was to use the conditions he could take advantage of to weaken the advantage of the Qing army's cavalry as much as possible. Obviously, terrain is the biggest and most accessible force on a battlefield where the sky is littered with corpses and trenches.

Reinforcement, reinforcements!

The personal soldiers around him were sent out one by one, some to the riverside, some to the south to fall into the camp. Zhou Shixiang urgently needed the support of living forces, especially the navy on the river.

He knew that even if he could maximize the favorable conditions on the battlefield, if there was no reinforcements, the final result would still be a failure, because the cavalry had a huge natural suppressing power over the infantry. His subordinates are not rifles, but broadswords and spears, not even bows and arrows! The terrain can only delay the speed of the Qing army, and the so-called line of defense can only delay the Qing army. The Taiping army has no ability or conditions to cause heavy casualties to these Qing army cavalry.

Marines, you **** go ashore! I can't stand it anymore!

Looking in the direction of Tan Jiang, Zhou Shixiang was so anxious that he almost cried.

…

"Run, run!"

"Brothers of the guard camp, run this way, hurry up!"

Less than 30 gunmen from the Guard Battalion, led by Baihu Jiang He, ran desperately back~www.mtlnovel.com~ Behind them were cavalry roaring, and some people kept falling behind, and some people kept falling. The rest of the people have ignored the fallen companions, and just ran forward like crazy.

Jiang He was also running out of breath. He didn't think that instead of running like this, he might as well get rid of his head and fight against the demon, but his reason told him that he could only die in vain if he turned around now, and would not do anything for anyone. A brother got his revenge.

Keep the green hills, not afraid of running out of firewood, Qianhu and the other brothers are waiting for the clear demon in front!

Nanbanzi wants to run!

Zeng Shicheng is chasing and killing, how can he allow the remnants of the Taiping army in front to run away, but he is also smart, and wants to take advantage of the situation to follow the retreating Taiping army and disperse the several groups of soldiers they have assembled. In this way, the general trend is Certainly. Driving the defeated soldiers into the enemy line, this is a method passed down from the Eight Banners Army in Manchuria. However, as the defeated soldiers chased after a few hundred steps, Zeng Shicheng found that these defeated soldiers were too cunning, and they turned around from both sides together instead of rushing straight ahead. When Zeng Shicheng approached with his horse, he violently restrained his mount, and his face became very ugly. To be continued.
