The Huaxia Army and the Houjin Army once fought to the death at the ferry crossing north of the Fuzhou River, and the corpses of both sides were piled up on the side of the narrow ferry port.

Later, the enemy and the enemy were almost stepping on each other's corpses and fighting, which was enough to witness how tragic this small-scale battle was.

However, with the follow-up of the Huaxia Army reconnaissance battalion and the cavalry infantry battalion, one team after another kept filling in this flesh and blood ink workshop, and in the end, the Houjin army that defended this place finally couldn't hold on because of heavy losses.

Less than half of the remaining men and horses of the Houjin army scattered in a panicked shout and fled in the direction where the large army of Duoduo was located.

The follow-up Huaxia army swarmed across the Fuzhou River and went to the riverbank, chasing those Houjin troops was a rapid slash.

Because it was a blocking battle on the bank of the river, the Houjin army left the war horse in a safe position behind, and at this time, they were busy fleeing for their lives, and many Houjin soldiers didn't even have time to lead the war horse, so they fled to the south in a panic.

Zachdan, who immediately stopped to check the battle situation on the other side of the Fuzhou River, saw that the ferry had been opened, and waved his hand, and the herald immediately understood.

After a while, the remaining personnel of the reconnaissance battalion took the horses that were tied to the trees on this side during the previous battle, dragged the horses and began to cross the river.

Then the battalion commanders and political workers quickly led a large army of cavalry to wade across the river.

As soon as the number of troops is large, it is easy to have various situations, and when the troops go ashore, there is some confusion because of the height of the riverbed.

Most of the horses of the reconnaissance battalion and the mounted infantry battalion were Mongolian horses, each of which was relatively short, and sometimes they could not go up to the shore for a while, so the soldiers could only get off the horses and drag the horses up.

They stopped, and the other horses continued to descend the river from the other side, coming this way.

As a result, traffic congestion was created at the ferry crossing.

The formation of the right wing of the 1st Mixed Brigade of the Huaxia Army also became chaotic because of this.

And it was at this time that the road to the south was filled with smoke and dust, and it was obvious that it was the Houjin Army Duoduo who was retreating to Fuzhou City, and was desperately rushing to the ferry position here.

Zachdan looked at the location of the smoke closest to him, frowned, and urged the adjutant behind him, "Let the battalions speed up the whole team." At the same time, the cavalry infantry battalion was instructed to hand over their horses to the care of the logistics department, cross the river in an infantry march, and then line up on the side of the Fuzhou River to prepare to meet the enemy. ”

······

"The special service platoon of the company directly under the battalion headquarters has priority to cross the river, and then several infantry artillery groups of the direct company.

"The other companies crossed the river in the last sequence, in the order of their respective numbers. Other auxiliary units directly under the company are ranked last. ”

"Infantry artillery crews are ready for firing and give priority to shrapnel shells."

The commander of the mounted infantry battalion, seeing that the cavalry troops in front of him were in some confusion when they crossed the river and landed, immediately roared at the heralds.

The herald quickly ran out with the battalion flag in hand to convey the order, but the battalion commander was still not at ease, so he sent another herald to convey his order for the second time.

He didn't even need a telescope to see the smoke and dust from the cavalry galloping in the distance.

The forward cavalry troops of the Houjin Tartars are already in sight, and from the time and the news learned from the previous battle report, it is estimated that the follow-up troops of Houjin Fangmin should have also been deployed.

Time waits for no one, and the forward cavalry of the Houjin Army gallops with all their might, and will soon reach their own position, and there is no time to cross the river for his battalion.

The special service platoon of the direct company that uses pump-action rifles is his treasure, and this elite combat unit equipped with pump-action rifles has a platoon establishment in each battalion, and there are less than 50 people.

Although the number of people is extremely scarce, this platoon can not only provide fire support beyond the range, accuracy, and rate of fire of other riflemen, but also have a certain ability to fight alone, and it can be said that it is an elite team of ten thousand essential oils.

Moreover, in the Chinese Army, the commander of this platoon is concurrently served by a deputy company commander of the company directly under him, which is different from the establishment of any other platoon, which is enough to see the importance that the superiors attach to them.

Originally, the deputy company commander who led the team should have commanded the special service platoon to fight, but this time, the cavalry battalion commander decided to personally lead the special service platoon to cross the river to deploy the special service platoon, and the special service platoon has always acted quickly.

The commander of the cavalry battalion, despite the opposition of the battalion deputy, insisted on handing over the command of the battalion headquarters to the battalion deputy in accordance with the regulations, and then he personally led the soldiers of the special service platoon to the tail position of the cavalry team waiting in front of the road to be cleared.

The cavalry battalion had received an order from the brigade headquarters and was moving company by company to flank, preparing to vacate the crossing for the men of the mounted infantry battalion behind.

After the cavalry battalion commander led the special platoon to cross the river along the ferry, he immediately moved a distance to the south, which was to give way to the follow-up troops to make way for the crossing, so as to prevent the subsequent battle from blocking the road and making it impossible for the follow-up troops to land.

After selecting the formation of the column, the soldiers of the four squads of the spy platoon quickly lined up into two arrays on the left and right.

Thanks to the strict training and tactical regulations of the Chinese army, they were able to line up very quickly, check their ammunition, and begin to prepare for the onslaught of the enemy.

At this time, the forward cavalry unit of the Houjin Army had reached a position less than 1,000 meters away from the spy platoon.

This Houjin forward cavalry, about 300 people in the appearance of Niu Lu, the front of the banner is the banner of the white flag owner Duoduo's personal soldier Bayara.

It seems that the commander of this forward team is a Jia Lae Zhen.

Moreover, it can be seen from the fact that the Houjin army still maintains a basic formation in the march that this team of men and horses must be the so-called protectors who jumped out when Huang Taiji reformed the military system.

These cavalry are very fierce and sophisticated, and when they saw the Huaxia army here, except for a group of infantry who were ready for battle, the other cavalry had not yet formed a complete array, so they knew that there was an opportunity.

Immediately, the more than 300 Houjin forward cavalry did not hesitate to charge towards the Huaxia army.

The cavalrymen of the small reconnaissance battalion who were on guard in front and drove away the enemy scouts by the way had already emptied the ammunition in the chamber of the revolver in the battle just now, and it was extremely troublesome to reload that thing.

Without self-defense weapons, coupled with the significant disparity in numbers, the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion could not resist such a large number of enemy cavalry, so they could only retreat to the flanks one after another.
