Chapter 28: The Great Alliance Moving Forward (13)(2/2)

However, just when the commander of the right wing of the Grand Parliament Army thought he had successfully suppressed the enemy in front of him and just waited for the friendly forces on the flank to be in place, Colonel Saner, who followed the gunshots to the artillery position, was almost blown up by anger.

Perhaps because of the terrain, the front-line commander in the farmland could not confirm the enemy's strength, but the condescending Sanel could see clearly.

The left wing units of the "rebels" were still huddled at the edge of the effective range of heavy artillery. Where were there any enemy troops on the river bank? It was just some musketeers who were fighting stubbornly.

Moreover, the "rebels" hid behind the field embankments and bushes, and the musketeers of the parliamentary army were unable to effectively kill them. On the other hand, the soldiers of the parliamentary army stood foolishly in the farmland they had just harvested, and they were all targets.

The artillery commander who urgently replaced round bullets with shotguns also felt a little tricky - bombarding the musketeers scattered behind the dike with heavy artillery is tantamount to wasting ammunition; if you don't use the cannon, you can only watch your friendly forces be beaten.

Without waiting for the artillery commander to ask for instructions, Sanel was furious and had already rushed down the hills. He cursed the incompetent phalanx leader and ordered the latter to charge. At the same time, he mobilized the cavalry teams on both wings to cross the river to surround the enemy.

Captain Sakashich saw a school officer on the other side of the river galloping down the slope, and then the clumsy and slow enemy phalanx "wake up" and the cavalry on both wings of the enemy's front also took action.

Captain Sakashich knew it was time to retreat, but he couldn't help but want to have a gamble.

"Quick! Give me a gun! Hurry!" Sakashich stared at the figure in the uniform of the school officer across the river, and urged his subordinates impatiently: "Carry my ammunition gun!"

The musketeer behind him quickly pulled out the bar from the barrel and handed the clamp to the captain.

Sakashi personally hung the fuse, erected the gun, aimed at the school officer who was waving his arms to give orders in the distance, and prayed to pull the trigger: "Let me end this killing! Merciful Lord!"

The flame flashed, and the lead was left, waiting for the smoke to dissipate. Sakashi saw in disappointment that the school official was still sitting in the saddle.

Meanwhile, Colonel Sanel touched his cheek, stabbed his ribs, turned around and left.

Seeing the other party running away, Sakashi punched Tiandi and ordered: "Blow the trumpet! Retreat!"

The sharp trumpet pierced the various noises of the battlefield, and the musketeers behind the dike got up one after another and ran towards the square formation in the distance. Sakasic also raised his sword and strode towards the square formation he commanded.

However, at this moment, the artillery commander of the Grand Parliamentary Army seized the opportunity of the "rebel" musketeers leaving the bunker and ordered the cannon to open fire.

The thirty-two-pound cannon sprayed out strong smoke and sprinkled ruthless rain of lead on the back of the escaping life.

The wheat fields on the west bank seemed to be scratched by a comb, and there were many "scratches" in an instant. Many musketeers suddenly fell down without warning while running, and never got up again.

When he heard the thunder sound from behind, Captain Sakashichi immediately shouted at his subordinates: "Distract!"

But he didn't make any sound, and the final order dissipated in his chest. Sakashich was pulled by a walnut-sized lead bullet and he fell heavily into the wheat field and bid farewell to all the killings after that.

The six square formations of the Grand Parliament Army rushed across the nameless river with shouts, and the light cavalry also surrounded the two wings, intending to kill all the musketeers of the "rebels".

However, the various phalanxes on the west bank also beat the war drums and the military flags were waving. The six phalanxes of Leiqun County and Baishan County faced the six phalanxes of the Great Parliament Army.

At the same time, the Leiqun County cavalry hidden behind the Hegu Village Highlands rushed out from the ground and cut off one wing of the "pseudo-army" cavalry in the middle.
