The cavalry that rushed out of the woods to the southeast was the First Cavalry Brigade of the First Cavalry Regiment led by Wu Fengqiu. The officers were all old brothers from the old Wu Army, and the soldiers were all dead soldiers who crawled out of the dead.
, the combat power is the highest in the entire army.【】
After two days of rapid march, Wu Fengqiu finally arrived at Dujigensk and pressed on the Second Infantry Regiment in time when it was in trouble. The appearance of reinforcements made Zhang Cheng, Agudamu and others who were in a hard battle extremely happy.
, also made Zuo Mingnan breathe a sigh of relief: Thank God, reinforcements have finally arrived!
The arrival of cavalry reinforcements from the Guanning Army made Leonid a little panicked. His Cossacks were scattered in three places. On the one hand, they had to deal with the surrounded Qing soldiers, on the other hand they had to resist the approaching Qing infantry array, and now they had to deal with it again.
The Qing reinforcements suddenly came out, and all of them were cavalry. No matter how arrogant Leonid was, he had to consider retreating immediately.
The arrival of the Qing cavalry reinforcements had already been announced by Nikita at the top of the city. In order to prevent the Cossacks from being wiped out, he immediately ordered Vasily at the bottom of the city to quickly lead his musketeers to meet them and be sure to cover the Cossacks.
When Wu Fengqiu's troops rushed to the battlefield, they rushed towards the Rakshasa cavalry at full speed, aiming directly at the Rakshasa soldiers surrounding Zhang Cheng's troops. Five hundred war cavalry rushed towards them, and their momentum alone was enough to make Jiuzhan
The tired Cossacks were frightened.
Leonid ordered the retreat without any hesitation. The merit of killing the Qing soldiers was tempting, but the danger of being backlashed by the Qing soldiers was greater. Soon, the Cossacks followed their leader towards Dujigensk, and Sver
He also considered taking the lead, but after hearing the thunderous shouts of the Qing cavalry reinforcements, he quickly turned his horse and ran towards the city gate first.
Surviving the disaster, truly surviving the catastrophe, the soldiers of the second regiment and the Mongolian soldiers after running around the gate of hell could not believe that they were saved. Looking at the retreating figures of the Rakshasa cavalry, they were happy
Yelling, hugging each other and crying.
Seeing the Rakshasa cavalry retreating towards the city gate, Wu Fengqiu's heart moved, and he wanted to take advantage of the situation to break into the city. He did not know that there were thousands of Rakshasa soldiers in the city. He only knew that this golden opportunity in front of him should not be missed, but when they were so far away from the city gate
When less than 400 meters away, the Rakshasa musketeers opened fire. There was a "bang bang" sound of firecrackers shooting, and more than a dozen cavalrymen fell off their horses. Then they heard a loud "bang", but they
It was the artillery of the Rakshasa people at the top of the city that opened fire. The huge pellets roared past, killing six or seven people, including men and horses. Upon seeing this, Wu Fengqiu knew that the law had followed him into the city, so he had to order a retreat to protect the infantry brothers from retreating.
to a safe distance.
At this point, the large-scale fighting under the city of Dujigensk came to an end. In the eleven-day battle, the Guanning Army suffered heavy losses. The Second Infantry Regiment killed 900 people and injured more than 600. Only the Fourth Battalion remained.
Completely organized, the remaining first, second, and third brigades can almost be abolished. As for the cavalry, Agudamu's Mongolian team killed 110 people and wounded 17 people, leaving only 23 people.
In addition to the 230 Cossack cavalry casualties, the Russian army suffered one casualty. As for the officers, the Second Infantry Regiment also suffered heavy losses. First, the two captains of the Second Battalion who were old brothers of the Wu Army were both killed in the battle.
Ninety percent of the officers of the army and squad were killed in the battle, while in the corresponding Russian army, one officer was still killed.
After Leonid retreated into Dujigensk, Nikita ordered the city gates to be closed tightly, and no soldiers were allowed to leave the city. Zuo Mingnan also gathered up the skirmishers and killed all the remaining soldiers of the three heavily damaged brigades.
It was organized into the First Battalion, but could only be organized into two teams. Under the cover of Wu Fengqiu's command, the Second Infantry Regiment re-selected its camping location three miles south of the original garrison. Zuo Mingnan meant
We are waiting for the division commander's order before making the next step.
After everything was settled, Zuo Mingnan ordered Zhang Cheng to be relieved of his position as division commander and awaited his fate. Zhang Cheng had no complaints about this, but Agudamu interceded for him. However, Zuo Mingnan insisted on dismissing Zhang Cheng from his position as division commander and awaited his fate.
Agudamu had no choice but to comfort Zhang Cheng, saying that he would explain the situation in detail to Captain Bagan and ask Bagan Baihu to intercede with the division commander. After hearing this, Zhang Cheng shook his head and declined Agudamu's kindness, saying that because of his own fault,
Causing death and injury to hundreds of soldiers is a serious crime and should be dealt with under military law. Therefore, Agudamu was asked not to talk to Captain Bagan about this matter. He was already ready to behead him. Agudamu saw this and did not talk to him.
Besides, he secretly sent a subordinate to Ergun to tell Bagan about the situation. The Mongolians have clear grudges and the most important thing is friendship. If Zhang Cheng hadn't saved himself, he wouldn't have committed such a big mistake. So no matter what,
Agudamu had to find a way for Zhang Cheng.
The two captains Lahu and Pei Dagang who escaped before the battle were dismissed from their military posts, and all the officers in the team were imprisoned. Their nature was different from Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng had improper command, but the two retreated before the battle, causing everyone to
The army collapsed, and according to military law, they could be executed on horseback. However, under Wu Fengqiu's persuasion, Zuo Mingnan did not execute these officers immediately, but imprisoned them first, and all the soldiers were reduced to auxiliary soldiers.
One day later, Malone's 2nd Cavalry Regiment also arrived at Dujigensk. After arriving, Malone informed Wu Zuo and Wu Zuo of the news that Udisk and Tugursk had been occupied, and told them that the commander-in-chief personally
The 3rd Infantry Regiment is heading here.
After leaving the newly formed Third Group to flank the Second Infantry Regiment, Malone led the other two groups to drive northwest of Dujigensk. His mission was to cut off all connections between Dujigensk and the outside world, and
To prevent any Rakshasa reinforcements from entering Dujigensk, he issued a military order in front of the commander, so he did not dare to take it lightly. Otherwise, if another Rakshasa army entered the city, his head would also fall off.
.
On September 24, Qi Zhuang also rushed to Dujigensk with two infantry brigades belonging to the 2nd Infantry Regiment. Along with them were 600 young men from Ergun City. Along with the reinforcements
There were more and more people, and the shadow that shrouded the head of the 2nd Infantry Regiment was slowly dispelled. Everyone was gearing up to prepare for another showdown with the Rakshasa people when the commander arrived.
Qi Zhuang did not comment too much on the defeat of the 2nd Infantry Regiment. He only comforted Zuo Mingnan that victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. There is no general who is always victorious, so don't think too much and wait until the division commander arrives.
Calculate.
After waiting anxiously, on the afternoon of September 26, Zhao Qiang led the 3rd Infantry Regiment, Cossack Brigade, and Guards to finally arrive at Dujigensk. At the same time, Ma Long sent back intelligence that a large force appeared in the northwest.
