Li Hongtang has been dealing with foreigners for many years, and he also knows that the foreigners have strong ships and powerful guns, but the Daqian Empire has been poor and weak for a long time. Even if he wants to catch up, it will not take a day or two, especially in the In terms of land artillery, we fell too far behind.
When we saw such a scene before, it was all foreign artillery bombing us. At that time, Li Hongtang was extremely envious. If we had such an artillery force, we might not have to pay so much money and cut so much land. But now It's not too late.
Now that many years of wishing have finally become a reality, how can an old man not be excited?
"The first company and the second company alternately cover, let me rush in directly."
Boss Wang issued the combat order. Since the original plan is useless, now they just have to attack directly. They also trained this subject during training. The main reason is that our rate of fire is relatively fast. Two soldiers cover one soldier. Rush forward.
The Haicheng garrison can be regarded as a well-trained elite. When the first artillery shell fell, the alarm sounded in the entire garrison, and a large number of soldiers rushed to their posts.
They originally thought it was a small-scale conflict. When a large number of artillery shells fell, these soldiers finally understood that today was by no means a small-scale conflict. It seemed that others wanted to destroy us.
How could there be a fight with us when we are surrounded by foreign armies? Our weapons and equipment are all provided by the six major powers, and they can be considered their own people. What is going on now?
Look at the enemies in front of you. They seem to be wearing strange clothes. The armies of the six major powers do not wear such clothes, and the army of the Daqian Empire does not wear such clothes. Where did they come from?
The most terrible thing is that after the guns in their hands have fired a bullet, according to the soldiers of the garrison, it will take a long time for the opponent to load a bullet. They can take advantage of this opportunity to fight back. Who knows that the opponent is just Pulling the bolt, the second bullet was fired.
Many soldiers thought that the opponent was about to reload bullets, and they also thought of rushing forward while reloading bullets. As a result, they suffered a tragedy.
Several men were shot through the head as they escaped from the trenches.
These people never thought that the opponent did not need to load bullet after bullet.
The casualties continued to increase. When more than 100 people died, the garrison did not take it seriously. When more than 300 people died, the garrison was still able to hold on. When more than 800 people died, the garrison did not take it seriously. , the soldiers finally couldn't stand the pressure anymore, and ran back one after another, and the first line of defense was lost.
In the span of half a pack of cigarettes, the so-called elite Haicheng Guard Group lost its first line of defense.
In addition to the sharp attack of the Suppression Army, the main reason why all their officers were killed is that if they can't find their commanders during the war, those soldiers may desert. It doesn't matter if one or two soldiers have ideas, but If hundreds of soldiers had ideas, this army would have no hope of winning.
"Three consecutive people lit torches and drove toward the center."
Seeing a lot of people running out, Wang Wu issued the next order, and a large number of torches were instantly erected around the Haicheng Security Group.
I originally thought about running out while it was dark, but who knew that the surrounding torches made the place look like daylight. If I continued to run forward, it would definitely be a dead end.
It’s been half an hour…
Li Hongtang has been looking at his watch. Half an hour later, it seems that the overall situation has been decided. Except for the people in the middle who are still resisting, most of the people around have put down their guns, and there are groups of prisoners next to them.
Was escorted over.
Is the Haicheng Guard Corps so weak?
This question mark appeared in Li Hongtang's head. In fact, it was not that the Haicheng Guard Regiment was so weak, but that the First Infantry Regiment of the Suppression Army was too strong.
Originally, these people were old men on the battlefield. Gao Shaoyi gave them enough weapons and equipment for training, good horses with good saddles, and the Haicheng Guard Group was attacked by surprise. If the battle cannot be ended in an hour, then the first step
It's time for those in the Corps to go home and take care of their children.
"Master Hou, Mr. Li, this person is Zhang Sanmao, the leader of the security regiment."
In less than an hour, the leader of the Haicheng Security Regiment was pressed over.
"Li Hongtang, please see clearly. I am Zhang Sanmao. My sister is married to Mr. John of the Windsor Empire. If you kill me, you won't get anything good."
This guy is just the leader of a mere guard regiment. Li Hongtang is a real official of the imperial court. He dares to call Li Hongtang by his first name, which shows how arrogant he is at ordinary times.
"What's going on? He can't speak? Didn't he find someone to teach him?"
Gao Shaoyi said with some dissatisfaction, although this guy was scolding Li Hongtang, after all, it was his own people who did it. He was embarrassed in front of Li Hongtang, and Gao Shaoyi's face didn't look good.
Fuck you.
Tang Shuang has a bad temper. He was originally in a bad mood today. A good operation turned into a strong attack because of a slight noise from his men. Fortunately, the top brass of the defense group were caught by him. Unexpectedly, this guy came up and
He spoke so wildly that he lost face in front of the Marquis.
With one kick, Zhang Sanmao's face changed shape.
Tang Shuang wore military boots on his feet. These boots were so powerful. If he hadn't asked this guy, this kick would probably kill him.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Although Tang Shuang had controlled his strength very well, Zhang Sanmao was still speechless, and his jaw was broken, and his upper and lower lips could not match each other. It would take him the rest of his life to expect this guy to speak.
"Master Hou..."
Tang Shuang was very embarrassed.
"Forget it, young people have great firepower. If the leader is no longer good, isn't there still a deputy leader?"
When this guy started cursing just now, Li Hongtang had a look on his face. Wasn't he just a foreigner's brother-in-law? He really regarded himself as a piece of cake. Li Hongtang admired Tang Shuang very much in his heart. Seeing that Gao Shaoyi wanted to criticize his subordinates
I just said something to Tang Shuang.
"Why are you still standing there? I'll go and get the deputy captain over myself. If it weren't for Mr. Li's sake, you won't be able to beat him away today, so hurry up and pick someone up for me."
After Gao Shaoyi finished speaking, Tang Shuang quickly ran into the crowd and brought the two deputy captains over.
Li Hongtang was very surprised at the side. The battle just now was so chaotic. It was not surprising that the top brass of the garrison were killed. Unexpectedly, all of them were captured...??
