Chapter 687: Raid on Dongjia Town (1)
"Hey, is the message accurate?"
Yan Chunyu threw the wine gourd to Nie Feng, Nie Feng raised his neck, poured a few sips first, and said with a smile: "There is no problem, it is true, their strength in one town is only about 7,000 people, although there are more than us, but our cavalry raid will definitely be able to beat them to the ground!" ”
Yan Chunyu stood up and said lightly: "Okay, since that's the case, then let's have a good time, give an order, all eight cavalry battalions will be dispatched, and Zuo Zhongliu will lead the three cavalry battalions to return to the back of Dongjia Town to block the escape route of the Taiping army; Order Zhang Yushan to lead four cavalry battalions to attack Dongjia Town directly from the front! Let's go! “
Not far away, Zuo Zhongliu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brigade Commander, we are all leaving, why are you going?" ”
"Nonsense,"
Yan Chunyu said disdainfully: "Lao Tzu has more important things to do, you attack from both ends, the dog jumps under the wall, the Taiping army will definitely break through to the west, I will take a battalion of troops to defend the west side, and be ready to capture that Liao Chuhui alive!" Ha ha! ”
Zuo Zhongliu pouted with Zhang Yushan, what about it, let the old men go to the battle, and you kid go to pick up the cheap? Forget it, who made him the boss, he can't afford to mess with him!
Yan Chunyu finished the deployment, and eight cavalry battalions and 4,000 people galloped towards Dongjia Town!
It is exactly the same as the extermination of the Northern Taiping Army in Qixian County, the only difference is that last time, Yan Chunyu met unexpectedly, and this time it was deliberate, and it was more secure than the last time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Dongjia Town, now it has entered the middle of the night, Liao Chuhui arranged a guard, fell into a courtyard, fell asleep, a sentry troops patrolled back and forth around Dongjia Town, and the rest of the Taiping soldiers had already entered the dream, and they were exhausted from the rapid march for days!
At this time, the cavalry of the Lu army arrived, and Zhang Yushan led four cavalry battalions to Dongjia Town.
Dongjia Town is leaning on the Tianxian River on one side, has a small wharf, is land on three sides, and is built near the river, because of the existence of the wharf, this town is born by the water, with a population of no less than 10,000 people, it is a famous big town, interspersed with a wide official road in the middle.
Almost all of his Taiping troops rested on both sides of the official road, so many Taiping troops appeared, and every family was already so frightened that they closed their doors and locked their doors and did not dare to show their faces, from the south end of the town, all the way to the north end of the town, the official road was full of resting Taiping troops, and now the weather has entered May, and it is starting to get hot, even if there is no bedding tent, it will not freeze.
The sound of dense horses' hooves came from far and near, quickly approaching, and it was precisely because the patrolling Taiping army also patrolled from the north to the south, and when they heard such a dense sound of horses' hooves, the patrolling soldiers naturally noticed that something was wrong!
"Quick, gong! Enemy attack! ”
The leading sentinel shouted.
As soon as the words fell, a bullet flew over, hitting the center of the sentry officer's eyebrows, and the sentry officer didn't even let out a scream, and he died in Huangquan, a foreign gun!
The patrolling Taiping soldiers all changed color, and they struck the gong in their hands fiercely!
"Bell Bell Bell ......"
The crisp sound of gongs spread far away in the silent night, and even if they slept to death, the Taiping army on the south side woke up from their sleep and looked around blankly!
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
The roar of the Taiping army completely sobered up the Taiping army, jumped up from the ground one by one, looking for their weapons, in a small courtyard, Liao Chuhui also woke up from a deep sleep, jumped up, carried a ghost head knife in one hand, and a revolver in the other, and rushed out of the courtyard!
In less than two minutes, two thousand Lu cavalry had already rushed into Dongjia Town from a distance, and the bright swords had already been rounded and cut off at the heads of the Taiping soldiers!
In the dark night, in the face of the rushing cavalry, the Taiping army panicked, and wanted to organize for effective resistance, where is it so easy, everyone is cavalry, galloping all the way, the huge impact is not at all what the Taiping army can stop, and even some of the unlucky Taiping army was directly hit by the war horse and flew up!
Blood and light appeared, stumps and broken arms were everywhere, and the terrible howls of the Taiping army shook the sky, which was particularly terrifying in the quiet night.
"Command, stop, stop! The first battalion in the front gave me to withstand the attack of the Qing Demon, and the second and third battalions in the back were immediately ready to shoot! ”
Liao Chuhui, who came out of the small courtyard, shouted.
The generals under his command acted one by one, but the first battalion in front was completely entangled with the cavalry, and the soldiers of the first battalion were scurrying around by the cavalry's swords, where could they resist such a rapid impact of the cavalry?
As for the second and third battalions in the back, in the face of the cavalry raid, they also retreated again and again, and they were a little at a loss.
Liao Chuhui was furious, and with a wave of the ghost head knife in his hand, a retreating Taiping Army's head flew up, "******, if there are those who retreat, there will be no forgiveness for killing, give me to resist, attack, attack!" ”
In fact, how could Liao Chuhui be willing to fill in his 123rd battalion? These three battalions are all large battalions equipped with foreign guns, and the loss of one is distressing, under the close combat, in the face of the impact of the cavalry, I don't know how many people will die, it is completely their own shortcomings to attack the other's strengths!
Finally, under the command of Liao Chuhui, the Taiping army gradually began to stabilize its position, but before the third battalion in the back began to shoot, the rear and rear began to be chaotic again!
Zuo Zhongliu rushed to the rear, and saw that Zhang Yushan had already started, and he couldn't bear the battle spirit in his heart, so he gave the order to attack directly, and the three cavalry battalions killed him from the north to the south!
Before and after, the Taiping army was completely blindfolded, there was no way to advance, no way to retreat, and was squeezed in the middle by the two cavalry, once the two cavalry turned together, then the entire Taiping army had only one way to perish!
Liao Chuhui's heart was cold, what a problem, didn't he say that the Qing Demon had already marched towards Anqing with all his might, why did he suddenly run out of a cavalry? Damn, this time it's Lao Tzu's life!
Not only did Liao Chuhui die, but the entire seventh town of the Taiping Army had been completely crushed, and under the thunderous offensive, the Taiping Army was crowded together, and there was no place to hide, so they could only wait for the doom to come!
"Order, all departments immediately disperse, enter the alley, and all parts scatter to break through!"
Fortunately, Liao Chuhui is experienced, and he has not been completely defeated, so he made a decision to disperse and break through and stay here, there is only a dead end, there is a small alley in the town, and if you drill into the small alley, the cavalry will not be able to deploy, as long as you distance yourself from the cavalry, it is possible to escape, and even organize a battle with the Qing Demon again, it is not impossible!
