Chapter 613: The Beginning of the Rout

With a single charge, the opponent's team of more than 2,000 people was scattered and disintegrated. But before Wu Sheng could catch their breath, a team of 1,000 people came not far away. The two sides met in the streets of the city, which were not very spacious, and now the two armies met and the brave won, and the battle was melee together.

At this moment, Leng Feng and the auxiliary soldiers gave full play to the three-three tactics, and the three of them worked as one, as if they were ordinary training, and launched a bayonet charge. Every time a white bayonet was stabbed forward, an enemy would fall to the ground, and his intestines and blood would flow everywhere.

The brave men of the mercenaries also led the five thousand Lao mercenaries behind them, who were originally holding cold weapons, either broadswords or spears, and this moment finally came in handy, following Leng Feng and the auxiliaries, they also wielded their knives to kill the enemy, showing their strong combat effectiveness.

The team of 7,000 people was like a torrent of steel, constantly killing the enemy, attracting the appearance of the opponent's main force, and after fighting for half an hour, the battle situation here finally attracted more soldiers from the Phnom Penh Dynasty. Especially after they heard that this mercenary army did not have muskets, some of them felt that their opportunity had come, and they all put down their footsteps towards the north gate and came towards the east gate.

The pressure on the east gate is increasing, and the pressure outside the north gate is getting smaller and smaller. When Chunyang and the others fired another long-range shot, they found that the number of enemies had begun to decrease sharply, and they could no longer form a human wall in front of them, the third battalion Changchun Yang decisively said to the messenger beside him: "Go and inform the sixth young master, the time is coming." ”

Yes, the time has come. The earliest breach of the North City Gate, and the later killing of the East City Gate, were all for the next third step, that is, the joint general attack of the 2nd Leng Feng Regiment, 14 auxiliary battalions and 15,000 Lao mercenaries.

Considering that the Phnom Penh Dynasty had 150,000 troops in the city, if they were all attacked from one gate, it would probably lead to a blockage of the city gate, and eventually their way was blocked by corpses alone. If this is the case, the enemy will have enough time to flee, and then the goal of inflicting heavy damage on the enemy will not be achieved. So there were two waves of feints.

The east city gate began to exert force, most of the enemies went there, the north city gate was empty, Yang Chendong, who got the news, immediately issued an order for a general attack on the whole line, and the main force of more than 20,000 mercenaries poured in from the north city gate, and the three battalions of Leng Feng, who converged with Chunyang, rushed towards Chuanlong City.

The 30,000-strong army was like a whirlwind, unstoppable wherever it passed, and the squad coordinated with machine guns, submachine guns, and semi-automatic rifles so that any enemy who tried to block the way or approach them was killed in the streets.

The north gate suddenly became the main attacking force, which surprised Doon, who was rushing towards the east gate. This between the virtual and the real, the real and the virtual, is to confuse him, where is the main force of the enemy, and where should he put the army to defend?

By this time, the 150,000-strong army of the Phnom Penh Dynasty was already in disarray. Even some of the troops have been hurrying back and forth between the North City Gate and the East City Gate, and just as they were running all the way from the North City Gate to the East City Gate, there was a military order to let them return to the North City Gate.

Now it is obviously too late to return, the mercenaries have already entered the city, and while attacking, they have stabilized their own defenses, and as they advance step by step, the entire five main streets near the north gate have been successfully occupied by them.

After the first step was established, the second step was divided. The mercenaries were divided into more than a dozen units in different directions, and they radiated rapidly to the surrounding area like a spreading virus, and no one could stop them.

A platoon can often be divided into groups. Once you encounter the enemy's hundred-man team, you will raise your gun and fight, and with the advantage of weapons, it is not difficult to fight a hundred in a row. And once they encounter the enemy's thousand-man team, they will fight and retreat, waiting for the intellectuals to keep throwing down the corpses in the process of pursuit, often fighting, and there will be another mercenary squad from other streets, and then it will be a two-sided attack, hitting the enemy a dizzy image, hitting the enemy a helpless, hitting the enemy a crying father and calling mother, hitting the enemy a corpse all over the field...

More and more mercenary squads began to show their terrifying lethality and destructive power, and slowly gave the Phnom Penh Dynasty soldiers in the city a feeling that there were enemies everywhere, danger everywhere, and no safety anywhere.

In such an environment, the morale of the enemy was rapidly disintegrating, and after resisting for more than four hours, before it got dark at night, finally the tight string broke, and the morale of the soldiers of the Phnom Penh Dynasty fell to a low point at that moment, and a large number of routs and deserters began to appear, which was irretrievable.

Under the blurred vision, the inspection team could not see the situation on the battlefield clearly, so that more people had more opportunities to escape. As some of the brave men took the lead in leaving, more and more soldiers began to flee, only to see black shadows scurrying in the darkness everywhere, and some soldiers even sneaked away twenty meters in front of the inspectors, almost in a fair and upright manner.

General Dahn was unaware of all this, and since the beginning of the mercenary attack at one o'clock in the afternoon, four or five hours had passed, and he had been in a state of panic all the time, and now he finally had a chance to rest, and under the protection of his own soldiers, he fell asleep by the battlements of a corner of the street.

The environment is not good, even a simple marching bed is not available, but in the eyes of General Dahn, who is extremely tired, this is nothing, what he needs is tranquility, that's all.

In ancient times, people were malnourished and prone to night blindness, and night battles made it difficult to recognize comrades and enemies from a distance, so no army was willing to fight at night unless necessary. In contrast, mercenaries are naturally fearless, and even the common subjects they usually train for night combat are training. But tonight, on a night when there was almost no moon in the sky, Yang Chendong made an unprecedented decision to let everyone rest.

The first battle during the day, although it was only one afternoon, but because the number of enemies was too large, the battle situation was very fierce from the beginning, especially the first battalion and the second battalion of the third regiment of Leng Feng, they not only used up all the bullets, but also carried out a face-to-face white-edged battle.

For this reason, one-third of the wounded soldiers of the entire first and second battalions were reached, and although most of them were slightly injured, if they were not treated in time, it was easy for small problems to become big problems.

There are so many wounded that they need to rest; After a hard battle during the day, the soldiers of the first battalion and the second battalion also need to rest and recuperate. In addition, there were too many bullets consumed in the first battle during the day, and it was urgent to replenish them, so Yang Chendong simply issued an order for the whole army to rest. It is believed that after a good night's sleep, the next day the warriors will be able to become alive and ready to return to the fierce battlefield.

With the exception of the soldiers who were in charge of the night, most of the soldiers leaned on each other or found a place that was relatively simple to lie down and sleep. As the head coach, Yang Chendong did not go to rest with everyone, with the existence of that qi, he now only needs to rest for two hours a day to recover to his peak state, and occasionally not sleeping all night is nothing. Without resting, he took Yang Er and some members of the First Guard Team to walk through the streets he had occupied before.

The whole street was still full of blood, although most of the corpses were removed, but the blood was not washed away in a while, and when these bloody gases were combined, it was inevitable that a very bad smell would be born, which made people feel sick.

Fortunately, it was not the first time that Leng Feng and the auxiliaries had gone to the battlefield, and although the smell was unpleasant, it was not unbearable. Besides, when people are tired, what does it smell like? In this way, under the foul smell, the streets and alleys were full of mercenary fighters who slept. They weren't cut down to the ground, but they were so tired that they found a random clearing and went to sleep.

In the first battle of the day, the army of the Phnom Penh Dynasty showed a strong resistance ability, Dahn deserved to be called the first general, and the tenacious fighting spirit made the mercenaries also invest a lot of energy, plus the role of the inspector team, they fully showed the demeanor of a strong army that was almost second-class.

Before, Yang Chendong had divided the army into four classes. When there are too many enemies, the second-class army can threaten the first-class army, and this battle is a bit hard, and it is reasonable that the soldiers are tired.

Walking on the street, his eyes are full of cute tired soldiers, once he finds out which soldier's hands and feet are exposed outside the quilt, Yang Chendong will step forward to help re-cover it, if this scene is known by the soldiers, I am afraid that they will be excited, but their sixth young master personally helped them tuck the quilt corners.

Not only did Yang Chendong get started, but Yang Er on his side and the members of the First Guard Team who followed him also helped to do things together. There are too many fighters, and they are too tired, except for the fact that Leng Feng is equipped with such a good thing as a sleeping belt, and there is no need to worry about catching a cold, the auxiliaries and Lao mercenaries do not have such conditions.

While helping the soldiers cover the quilt, Yang Chendong said to Yang Er beside him, "Tomorrow you arrange for someone to go to Chiji City, so that there are more sleeping bags over there, our soldiers can't get sick because of poor rest, this is a great injustice to them." ”

"Young master, I wrote it down." Yang Er nodded heavily, this is the young master caring about the soldiers, and orders like this must be conveyed as soon as possible.
