"Rush! If you hurry up, as long as you rush into the ranks of the Xinhua army, you can slaughter them wantonly. Riding on a tall horse, Monk Grinqin watched the charge of the Mongol cavalry with a telescope. Seeing that the Mongolian cavalry was constantly killed and injured by the artillery fire of the Xinhua Army, he was very distressed, these were all Mongolian warriors under his command!

The artillery fire of the Xinhua army raged in the charging ranks of the Mongolian cavalry, and the dense shell explosion caused huge losses to the Mongolian cavalry. However, even this did not stop the advance of the Mongol cavalry. The last time 3,000 Mongolian cavalry attacked, they were killed by the Xinhua army, which made the Mongolian cavalry hold back a fire in their hearts. The last attack would have failed, because of the terrain and narrow official roads, which were not conducive to the charge of the Mongol cavalry, but now it is different, on flat ground, the Mongol cavalry will let these Xinhua troops taste the bitterness.

"Infantry ready, fire!" When the Mongol cavalry rushed to the position of the new army in Lixinhua, less than three hundred meters, the infantry opened fire. Two rows of new Chinese troops formed a queue, the first column squatted on the ground, and the second column stood. All the soldiers were firing at the maximum rate of fire, trying to crush the Mongol cavalry in front of them. Everyone knew very well that once the Mongol cavalry broke through the position, the Xinhua army would pay a heavy price.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! The crisp sound of a rifle rang out. Bullets were fired at high speed, killing the charging Mongol cavalry. Dense bullets, like an invisible wall. Let the charging Mongol cavalry break the blood flow from the head.

The 'Zhonghua I' rifle equipped by the Xinhua Army has five rounds in its magazine. This allowed the soldiers to finish five rounds in a very short time. The terrifying rain of bullets formed was enough to hinder the offensive of the Mongol cavalry.

In fact, it is indeed the case, the charging Mongolian cavalry, as if they were cutting wheat, fell to the ground one by one. In front of the position of the Xinhua army, a place of corpses was left.

"Damn it!" Seeing this, both of Monk Greenqin's eyes were about to erupt with fire. Huge losses. It made his heart feel as if it was dripping blood. The number of Mongols was already small, and the number of adult males was even rarer, so such a big loss. It's enough to make Mongolia break its bones.

When the infantry of the Xinhua Army finished the rifle magazines and began to reload them, the Mongol cavalry got the opportunity to attack. It's just that they soon found out. There was actually barbed wire in front of the positions of the Xinhua Army. They were blocked by barbed wire. The barbed wire fence is only more than a meter high, and it is difficult for war horses to jump. The cavalrymen angrily used their scimitars to slash the barbed wire, but they found that the barbed wire was so resilient that it could not be broken at all.

By this time, the soldiers of the Xinhua Army had already reloaded their bullets. Horrific firing began again, and the barrage of bullets knocked down the Mongol cavalry that had been held back from the barbed wire. Some of the Mongol cavalry, who had found a gap in the middle of the barbed wire, were also unable to rush to the front of the positions of the Xinhua army. Intensive firepower of the Xinhua Army. These Mongol cavalry paid a heavy price.

A squad of Mongolian cavalry, braving a hail of bullets. Luckily rushed to the front of the position of the Xinhua army. They raised the scimitars in their hands, and soon, they could use the scimitars in their hands to harvest the lives of the soldiers of the Xinhua Army. However, in the next second, dozens of black iron bumps were thrown out of the position of the Xinhua Army.

"Boom! Rumble! "These iron lumps exploded, and the scattered shrapnel turned the Mongolian cavalry on their backs.

The attack of the Mongol cavalry was very fierce, but their attack was doomed to be in vain. Not to mention the loss of troops, the head of the Xinhua army in front of the defense line of the Xinhua army was broken and bloody, even those Mongolian cavalry who were lucky enough to rush into the defense line of the Xinhua army did not cause much damage to the Xinhua army. Often, after slashing and killing a few soldiers of the Xinhua Army, they were shot by other soldiers of the Xinhua Army.

The fierce battle lasted less than half an hour, and the 8th Brigade of the Xinhua Army also rushed to the battlefield, and the addition of the new force greatly increased the firepower of the Xinhua Army. The Mongol cavalry suffered even more heavy losses.

"Lord Wang, we have already lost three or four thousand people, and we can't go on like this." A Mongolian general said to Monk Grinqin.

Monk Lingqin nodded, Chen Jinshou arranged his task, but it was just a break to create a chance for the retreating green battalion soldiers to escape, there was no need to fight with the Xinhua army.

"Woo! Woo! The mournful trumpet sounded as if it were weeping. The Mongol cavalry, which was attacking the position of the Xinhua army, began to retreat like a tide. However, the corpses left behind and the wounded and dying soldiers testify to the tragedy of the battle. The ownerless horses roamed the battlefield, as if they were looking for their masters, and everything seemed so sad.

After the Mongol cavalry withdrew, they counted their numbers and found that in just a few moments, they had lost almost 3,500 men. After hearing this number, Monk Lingqin almost fell off his horse.

"Bastard, this king and the Xinhua army are not in the same sky, one day, this king will definitely kill all these Han dogs!" Monk Greenqin said viciously. Such a loss made him very uncomfortable.

In this attack by the Mongol cavalry, the Xinhua army lost less than 100 men. It was all caused by the Mongolian cavalry breaking through the defense line of the Xinhua army by luck and entering the ranks of the Xinhua army.

After repelling the attack of the Mongol cavalry, the Xinhua army did not defend, but began to press on the Mongol cavalry step by step. Especially when the follow-up 9th Infantry Brigade and 20th Infantry Brigade also arrived, the strength of the Xinhua Army greatly exceeded that of the Mongolian cavalry. More than 20,000 Xinhua troops slowly pressed towards the location of the Mongolian cavalry. The rifles in the hands of the soldiers were already loaded. If the Mongol cavalry had the intention of attacking, they would immediately stop and defend on the spot. Mortars from several infantry brigades were even more advanced with the troops. At each stage of the advance, dozens of mortars were aimed at the front to prevent a sudden attack by the Mongol cavalry.

As the Xinhua Army got closer and closer to the location of the Mongol cavalry, the Mongol cavalry felt a great threat. Even the horses under their crotches became restless.

"Lord Wang, the Xinhua Army is coming up. What are we going to do? A Mongolian cavalry general said to Monk Grinqin.

"Damn the dog!" Monk Greenqin's head was full of green muscles. He very much wanted to order the Mongol cavalry to attack, defeat the Xinhua army, and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor. However, he could see that the attack of the Xinhua army was very orderly, and it was obviously preparing for the attack of the Mongol cavalry. In particular, a large area of dust was raised in the distance, and there was no need to think about it to know that the follow-up troops of the Xinhua Army were approaching, and there must be terrifying heavy artillery of the Xinhua Army there. Once these Xinhua troops approached, the Mongol cavalry would suffer heavy losses.

"Retreat!" After a sigh, Monk Grinqin had to give such an order. Although, they didn't delay for two hours, not even an hour. However, even if he disobeyed the military order, Monk Lingqin was unwilling to break off again. If this continues, the Mongol cavalry will suffer even greater losses, and there is no need to sacrifice the lives of the Mongols to save those Han Chinese, which is very unworthy.

The Mongol cavalry began to slowly retreat. Even if they were brave, they were terrified after fighting with the Xinhua Army.

The speed of the cavalry was far from being comparable to that of the infantry. If the Mongol cavalry was bent on retreating, the Xinhua army would not be able to catch up.

Fortunately, although the retreat speed of the Mongol cavalry was fast, the speed of the green battalion soldiers who fled before was much slower. Compared with the strong soldiers of the Xinhua Army, the green battalion soldiers with vegetables on their faces are obviously unable to compare with the Xinhua Army in terms of physical strength. Even if they retreat for more than an hour first, it is not difficult for the Xinhua army to catch up with them.

The retreat of the Mongol cavalry made the green battalion soldiers who had withdrawn in advance even more nervous. Chen Jinshou, the governor of Zhili, even questioned the monk Lingqin why he did not obey the order and buy two hours for the retreat of the large army. However, Seng Lingqin ignored Chen Jinshou at all. His Mongol cavalry had already lost more than 3,000 men, and he believed that he had done his duty.

Without saying a word, Monk Lingqin led the Mongolian cavalry to quickly retreat to Chenzhou, leaving all the Green Battalion soldiers behind. There is no way, the green battalion soldiers behind can only run away desperately, they all know that once they are chased by the Xinhua army, they will die.

In the following days, the Xinhua army launched a pursuit of the Qing army in the direction of Hunan. The Qing army, which was constantly falling behind, was chased by the Xinhua army and then annihilated. In order to delay the pursuit of the new Chinese army, Chen Jinshou, the governor of Zhili, had to divide his troops many times, but this only made the strength of the Qing army continue to weaken.

Three days later, Chen Jinshou led the remnants of the Qing army to retreat into the city of Chenzhou. But the Xinhua army immediately rushed to the outside of Chenzhou City, and as more and more Xinhua troops arrived, the entire Chenzhou City was surrounded. And Seng Lingqin has already taken the first step and retreated to Hengyang.

During the three-day pursuit, the Xinhua army won a lot, captured more than 20,000 Qing soldiers, and killed tens of thousands. Coupled with those Qing troops who fled in rout, the Qing army was able to retreat into Chenzhou City, only less than 50,000 people. The rest were either captured or killed by the Xinhua army, and many became deserters. Seeing that they were about to fail, they simply dragged their clothes and fled. The remaining tens of thousands of Qing troops retreated in Chenzhou, and their fate was obviously doomed. The Xinhua army besieged the city, and it would definitely not let them go.
