Chapter 1058: Everything is in vain
Dozens of long ladders leaned against the city wall near the three city gates in the west of Changsha City, and the officers and soldiers struggled to climb it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
At 4 o'clock in the morning, the mosquito boat heavy artillery on the river began to shoot again, with a loud bang, a big hole was blown open on the city wall in the northeast of Changsha City, the city wall here was already in disrepair, and the gap was even bigger than imagination. The rebels guarding the city wall suffered heavy casualties, and a huge shock wave spread along the city wall, shaking the rebels in the distance and losing their combat effectiveness.
The moat of Changsha City absorbed most of the shock wave, and the officers and soldiers did not encounter this problem, but the flying fragments of masonry and stone posed a considerable threat to the soldiers. When splinters of various sizes flew in all directions like a storm, shattering all the obstacles, the shock made the soldiers near the moat rejoice. It is already clear that without the mobile cover prepared in advance, everyone will never be safe from such a gravel attack.
Within a minute of the gravel falling to the ground, a sharp charge horn sounded. "Brothers, follow me!" Officers of all ranks were the first to jump out of their bunkers, and the soldiers followed their officers in the direction of the gap, which was still shrouded in thick smoke.
Both the northeast and southeast attacks in the city went smoothly, and the rebels in Changsha were almost immediately defeated. In the face of war, these rebel officers and soldiers were very sluggish, even more so than the bandits.
The rebel defense system in Changsha had collapsed, and the rebel officers and soldiers had never seen such a fierce enemy. The previous battles gave the rebels the impression that the officers and soldiers had no actual experience of warfare, and that the closest they could get to war was various drills. And the drill has a scale. Or capture the flag, or get somewhere. Moreover, the results of the drill are also the affairs of the officers, and everyone's competition is just to get more benefits after the drill is over. But when bullets and thunder bullets rained down on them, and their companions in front of and behind were knocked down like mowing grass, these rebel officers and soldiers realized that the enemy was completely different from before. They follow their death-running instincts almost exactly, backwards, backwards, backwards.
And the enemy is approaching and closing at a faster pace. The rebel companions who fell behind were either killed or surrendered. The soldiers, who were lucky enough to escape death, lost their morale and fled to the rear, familiar places. When the dawn faintly illuminated Changsha City, most of Changsha City had already fallen into the hands of officials and soldiers. The rebels either surrendered or fled to the last stronghold, the rebel camp in Changsha.
The commander of the rebels, Wang Jinlan, was completely blinded in this nightmarish night. Originally, the official army that was only harassing outside the city suddenly began to storm onslaught, and then the west city was lost, and as soon as Wang Jinlan's order to mobilize troops in the east was transmitted, with a loud bang in the east, Changsha City almost shook. After a while, news came from the east of the city that countless officers and troops had invaded the city?
How many officers and troops are out there? Wang Jinlan couldn't figure it out, judging from his war experience, if he wanted to break through a big city like Changsha, even if there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city, it would not work without fighting for two days. But the dense gunfire and explosions did not stop at all, and the officers and soldiers suddenly entered Changsha City. Wang Jinlan suddenly had an unreasonable thought, could it be that the officers and soldiers outside were invulnerable?
But the matter has come to this, and Wang Jinlu has no other way. He hurriedly ordered the hardcore troops who remained in the barracks to quickly drag the Gatling guns out, set up barricades in the streets, and defend them no matter what. The officers and soldiers came so fast that now they don't even have a chance to escape. At this time, Wang Jinlan put down everything and began to deploy according to the military knowledge he had learned, preparing for the final battle.
As the sky grew brighter, the defense line built by Wang Jinlan's personal command of the personal guards was probably completed. He had already sent his family into the barracks. The women were so frightened that they couldn't even speak after seeing Wang Jinlan. Wang Jinlan ignored their hysteria and sent someone to pick up Zuo Pinghu, but Zuo Pinghu was nowhere to be found.
There were no artillery in the Changsha rebel barracks, only six Gatling guns. Now the machine guns were all dragged out and used to defend several street crossings. Bags full of grain were brought out and piled up at the crossings of the barricades. The approximate position has been erected. From dawn to now, the routs fled into the last defensive positions.
Soon, some officers and soldiers dressed in dark blue appeared at the corner of the street. Wang Jinlan raised his binoculars and looked at the opposite side, only to see those officers and soldiers in blue clothes hiding in street corners and other places where they could hide in a very orderly manner, each of them had a rifle, and the posture of holding a rifle was not a layman at all.
"Are these people really the forbidden army in the capital?" Wang Jinlu was taken aback.
There were more and more people wearing blue clothes, separated by an empty street, and soon after, Wang Jinlan's telescope saw the red dragon flag, the river wind was very strong in winter, Changsha was on the Yangtze River, and the wind blew the red flag. The dragon above with teeth and claws is very conspicuous.
At this moment, someone on the street corner shouted, "Listen, traitors! You're surrounded! Hurry up and lay down your arms and surrender! The court is benevolent, only the first evil! ”
"Ma Chenglin, beat that person to death for me." Wang Jinlan said to a personal soldier beside him.
Ma Chenglin was originally a "gunner" on the rivers and lakes, and a gun made it extremely accurate. Later, when he committed a crime and was arrested, Wang Jinlan heard of this person's name, released him from the prison, and hired him as a personal soldier with a lot of money. Hearing Wang Jinlan's order, Ma Chenglin stepped forward without saying a word, raised his rifle and aimed for a while, only to hear a gunshot, and the person who shouted fell backwards in response.
"Good!" Anyone who could see the rebel officers and soldiers couldn't help but shout. was suppressed by the officers and soldiers on the opposite side and fought for half the night, and now suddenly seeing Ma Chenglin's accurate marksmanship, the rebel officers and soldiers were all in high spirits.
Although the officer was killed, the soldiers in blue seemed to be enraged, and they only hid a little, and then a group of men had already attacked along the wall.
"Machine guns!" Wang Jinlu ordered.
Six Heavy loaded their magazines and began firing at the blue-clad soldiers. With the sound of "sudden, sudden", the bullets began to fly sideways in the street, and deep pits were punched out on the walls, and the white wall skin was cut off by the bullets, turning into powder and flying.
The Bluemen probably understood the power of the Gatling Gun and no longer attacked, but retreated, and after a while, there were no more Bluemen on the streets.
Suddenly, the sound of an explosion was remembered in all directions, and billowing smoke mixed with flying pieces of masonry and stone rushed into the barricades of the Forces nouvelles. The explosion was caught off guard, and Wang Jinlu only felt as if his heart was tightly held by a big hand, shrunk into a ball, and he couldn't open it.
What he could see was that several bamboo-like things flew out of the smoke and dust, and then there was an earth-shattering explosion, and Wang Jinlu's eyes went dark, and he fainted.
