Kowloon wins

Chapter 929 Fighting Gedeng Mountain ([-])
Heh, the old man is quick to see the opportunity, so he just shrinks back?
The soldiers of the Qing army couldn't help being elated about the easy victory, but Hong Qing didn't feel complacent at all. It is so powerful, and against the Russian army that is rigidly following the backward code of conduct, it is also a defensive battle. Victory is a matter of course, and it is not surprising at all. The real test is yet to come. No, wait. After a full incense stick, there was no sign of the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms attacking again, and Hong Qing knew that the Russian army was planning to play a game of wait and see.

"Order: The three armies push forward two hundred steps, Cheng Guiwu's troops press down on the ground, Yue Zhongqi's and Zhang Miao's two troops immediately launch an attack, mainly to destroy the enemy's vital forces, there is no need to rush to attack."

The fundamental purpose of Hong Qing leading the army to the west this time is to severely attack the arrogance of the Russian Empire, and he will not give up just because the Russian army turned from offensive to defensive. However, he did not intend to take the lives of his soldiers There is nothing else to do in exchange for victory. Don't look at Hong Qing's power in the court and the opposition is huge, but in fact, what can really make Hong Qing sit firmly in the court is this powerful army under him. He naturally does not want to be here. The losses in the battle were too great, and the order to attack was naturally reserved.

For more than a year, the Qing army has been invincible and invincible. The morale of the army is extremely high. Even if the enemy's strength is more than twice that of their own, the soldiers of the Qing army don't care about it. In addition, they were relaxed before. Having defeated the strong attack of the two divisions of the Russian army, their spirits were soaring to the extreme, and they all wished to rush forward and quickly wipe out the enemy on the opposite side. With such a state of mind, Hong Qing's order to advance slowly was inevitable. They were all a little dissatisfied, but an order is an order, but no one dared to disobey the order. As the horn was sounded, the soldiers of the three armies moved after hearing the order. Except for the reserve team led by Hong Qing, the three Qing army They all began to move forward slowly, and they pressed on to the position of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces at the same time.

"It's all steady, bring the yellow-skinned monkey closer and hit again!"

"Steady, don't mess up!"

"Don't mess around, anyone who dares to act recklessly will be killed without mercy!"

……

Nearly [-] Qing troops pressed forward in unison, although the speed was not very fast, but the momentum was as majestic as a mountain. Although the distance was still far away, there was unavoidable disturbance in the formation of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces. Van Dundob, Wachaifsky and the others had no choice but to press down loudly with enough energy, and only the Russian First Guards Army, which was deployed in the middle, was still calm. can be ignored.

Under the orders of commanders at all levels, the commotion of the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms was quickly suppressed, and everyone was fully alert and waiting for the strong attack of the Qing army. The artillery is ready to fire, waiting for the Qing army to rush forward, and there will be a massacre to avenge the previous fiasco.

"Fire the cannon and blast out those bastards!"

"Let's begin."

……

Although the calculations of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces were good, it is a pity that the Qing army did not intend to follow the pace expected by the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces. No, after the three-way army pressed forward for 200 meters, it stopped immediately and formed an array on the spot again. After the arrangement was completed, Zhang Miao and Yue Zhongqi issued the attack order almost at the same time, the difference was that Zhang Miao roared vigorously, while Yue Zhongqi simply gave orders.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

With the order of the two chief generals, the anti-aircraft artillery and heavy artillery deployed in front of the two Qing armies immediately began to bombard violently. The target was aimed at the artillery position in front of the Russian army array. Still kept silent, did not launch an attack on the Junggar army, but the light infantry artillery of the Qing army on the center and left wings did not fire, but were only ready to attack.

"Fire, shoot back, shoot back!"

The two Qing armies had a total of six heavy artillery pieces, with an effective range of more than 1000 meters; It was bloody bad luck, and the cannons and the soldiers on standby were all blown to pieces. Only one round of salvo shot down, and more than 160 cannons of the two Russian armies were destroyed. I don't know how many gunners were killed or injured. Upon seeing this, Lieutenant General Huachaevsky, the right-wing commander of the Russian army, and Lieutenant General Pantsevsky, the deputy commander of the First Frontier Army in the middle, were all enraged and issued orders almost simultaneously. Command to fight back.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

With the general order, the Russian artillerymen did not dare to be negligent, and started to counterattack according to the drills. One after another, the artillery shells roared and pierced the sky, smashing towards the Qing army array in the distance, and exploded in an instant. There were clusters of flames, countless shrapnel flying wildly and sweeping around, the momentum was not small, but the result of the battle, apart from blasting more than a hundred big holes in the flat ground, not even a single hair of the Qing army was injured. Root, nothing else, the maximum firing range of the Russian artillery is only more than 550 meters, and the artillery positions at the forefront of the Qing army array are more than 600 meters away from the Russian army. white blind.

"Order: Khmelnytsky's troops attack immediately to disrupt the enemy's formation, and each unit is on standby. In addition, let the Junggar army attack and contain the enemy's right-wing group!"

The Qing army's way of fighting relying on their superiority in weapons is really too bullying. After two rounds of shelling, the artillery positions of the Russian army were thrown into chaos. When the army was wiped out, Lieutenant General Tolsky was unavoidably a little anxious, and he gave two orders in a row with a livid face.

"The first division attacks the enemy's left flank, the second and third divisions come with me, smash the enemy in the front, kill!"

Upon receiving the attack order from Lieutenant General Tolsky, Khmelnytsky, the head of the First Cossack Corps, did not dare to procrastinate, and issued the attack order with a roar.

Cossacks (Ukrainian: Козаки; Russian: Каза?ки) are a group of nomadic communities living in the steppes of Eastern Europe (Ukraine, southern Russia). In the 15th and 16th centuries, some Russian and Ukrainian peasants who did not want to become serfs migrated to Russia after the Kipchak Khanate was overthrown. In the southern region, these people are called "Cossacks", which means "free people" in Turkic.

The Cossacks are known for their bravery and combat skills. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, the Cossacks established many small countries in the Don River Basin. After being defeated in the war with Poland, they had to surrender to Tsarist Russia in [-]. After decades of running-in, it was completely incorporated into the Russian Empire around [-]. In June [-], Peter the Great ordered the Cossacks to be reorganized into ten legions, which have since become the sharp edge of the Russian Empire’s external expansion. , the standard equipment is saber and spear, and some troops have prepared arquebus, wearing a round curly hat on the head, and wearing a black cloak. From generals to ordinary soldiers, no one wears armor. They belong to the fast and mobile light cavalry unit. The crotches are all good Don horses of the same color, with strong explosive power and endurance. Once they charge, they often have no retreat. They are the best assault troops in the Russian army. Charged out, the momentum was extremely huge, rows of bright sabers were raised like a forest in the sun, the cold light of death flickered dazzlingly, the hooves sounded like thunder, and the murderous aura rose into the sky!

"A sudden attack by artillery fire, hit me!"

The more than 150 Cossack cavalry charged forward, neither Zhang Miao nor Yue Zhongqi dared to ignore them, they gave the order almost at the same time, and immediately saw the more than [-] light infantry guns that had never been fired, immediately began to fire. In order to cover the shooting, after a while, the heavy artillery and anti-aircraft artillery also adjusted their shooting positions, and continuously smashed shells into the ranks of Cossack cavalry rushing madly, and dense clusters of flames exploded, countless shrapnel scattered all over the place. The next shot, many Cossack cavalrymen and horses were beaten into sieves in an instant, but even so, they could not stop the desperate charge of the Cossack cavalrymen.

"Everything is there, shoot!"

"Fire, call me!"

……

Seeing how brave and furious the Cossack cavalry was charging, Zhang Miao and Yue Zhongqi did not dare to take it lightly. When the Cossack cavalry rushed to a distance of less than [-] steps from their own formation, they issued general orders almost at the same time. It was like a burst of firecrackers. Although the distance was a little far away, the density of tens of thousands of people firing in turn was astonishingly high, not to mention the many machine guns firing at the same time. Countless chains of ammunition intertwined into a huge Even if the vanguard of the Cossack cavalry was beaten to the ground, even so, a group of Cossack cavalry still surged forward, rushing towards the Qing army without fear of death. Unwilling to give up at this point, as time went by, the desperately charging Cossack cavalry finally rushed to a distance of less than [-] meters from the Qing army formation.

"Bastard, why did the right wing stand still, go, tell them to sweat quickly and order an attack!"

This Cossack cavalry was rushing madly at all costs, but the Junggar army on the other side was completely silent. Seeing this, Lieutenant General Tolsky immediately became angry. He waved his hand and called a messenger , and let out a snarl in frustration.

"Yes!"

Hearing Lieutenant General Tolsky's roar, the orderly dared not hesitate a bit. He stood at attention and saluted, and promised loudly. After turning around, he rushed to the top of the mountain...
