Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 757 Surrounded by Iron Barrels
In June of AD [-], the troops of the Nanchuan Army that swept across the Far East encountered the troops of the Hanhai Cavalry in the border area between Huayu Plain and Katong Province.

Facing the rolling cavalry from the vast sea, the various units of the Nanchuan Army were advancing too fast and had no idea about the enemy's situation. They suffered their first serious damage since entering the Far East.

The No.90 Three Banners Regiment of Nanchuan, which had entered the plain area, suddenly encountered the Hanhai 90 Cavalry Division on the marching road. Most of the troops were killed.

Because the Nanchuan [-]rd Banner Regiment was close to Juelong Town, when the Hanhai cavalry attacked, the commander of the banner regiment decisively ordered to seize Juelong Town to resist, which saved the banner regiment from being defeated. They were besieged by Beihan's navy several times, and all died heroically.

The commander of the Han Hai Cavalry Troops, Metes, is a powerful general in the Han Navy. He has successively served as a regiment-level commander. This time, he was ordered to lead the cavalry to block the Nanchuan Army's attack.

General Metters was not complacent about the heavy damage to the Nanchuan Army. Instead, he assembled a total of five cavalry divisions and six infantry divisions in the Han Navy that had arrived in the Huayu Plain in the early days, and attacked the Nanchuan Army that had entered the plain. .

In Juelong Town alone, the Hanhai Army gathered two infantry divisions and one cavalry division, surrounded Juelong Town like an iron barrel with three times its strength, and was about to encircle and wipe out the Nanchuan No. [-] Banner Regiment.

The attack speed of the Nanchuan army sweeping across the Far East was very fast, and the banner regiments and banner battalions under each unit all attacked forward in an interspersed form.

Although the three infantry flag regiments at the vanguard of the Nanchuan Army have entered the Huayu Plain area, the follow-up troops have either marched in the mountains of the Kadong Province, or have entered the northern line and invaded the Yinshan Province. not much.

When he learned that he had encountered the main force of the Hanhai Army head-on, Li Qing, the sergeant of the Warhammer Legion who arrived here, immediately took over the command here, and sent the five infantry flag regiments that belonged to the Far East Army, the Second Army, and the Burst Bear Army nearby. Gather up and lay out a defense line along the border between the mountains and the plains.

Li Qing knew that if the Hanhai army in front of them succeeded in counterattacking and broke into the territory of Kadong province, then the Nanchuan army would be extremely passive, so he gathered nearby troops to set up a defensive line, and at the same time asked for help from the rear.

In a forest in the border area, Sergeant Major Li Qing's temporary headquarters was set up here, and the five infantry flag regiments he assembled were along the forest line, preparing to block the attacking Han Navy.

"How's the situation?" Li Qing couldn't wait to ask when he saw several banner leaders stepping into the temporary headquarters.

The head of the No.90 banner replied: "On the left flank of our banner regiment, we encountered two attacks from the Hanhai cavalry, but we have already repelled them."

"Our defense line was also attacked by the Hanhai cavalry. The attack was very fierce. They wanted to break through the provincial highway." The head of the No.80 Eight Banners also spoke.

"It is important to ensure that the provincial highway is under the control of our army. I will transfer another banner battalion for you. Can you hold it?"

The head of the 88th flag gritted his teeth and replied: "Since the sergeant chief said so, then I will go all out. Even if our flag regiment is wiped out, we will guarantee the control of the provincial highway!"

Li Qing nodded and asked again: "Is there any news about the No. 90 Three Banners regiment and the No. [-] Three Banners regiment?"

Someone replied: "We gathered some broken soldiers from the 93rd Banner Regiment in the early morning. I heard from them that they collided with the Hanhai Cavalry fifty miles east of Juelong Town. The 93rd Banner Regiment is gone..."

The generals in the temporary headquarters were all in grief. After all, they belonged to friendly troops. They felt uncomfortable watching the friendly troops being scattered by the Hanhai cavalry and countless soldiers being killed.

"Leave this account to the people of Hanhai first! We will definitely take revenge!" Li Qing slammed his fist on the table, his eyes bulging.

"The form of the [-]th and [-]rd Banner Regiment is not very fast. I heard from those who fell down that they have retreated to Juelong Town, and several divisions in Hanhai have surrounded them. Maybe they have already been breached by now."

They know the combat effectiveness of the Hanhai Army. Now the combat effectiveness of the Nanchuan Army has been greatly improved. Although it is comparable to the Hanhai Army, the hope of survival is still slim in the face of several times the enemy's siege.

The No.90 Three Banners Regiment has already been defeated, basically destroyed. Li Qing will never allow the No. [-] Banners to repeat the same mistakes. He ordered the combat staff: "Send scouts to Juelong Town immediately. What's going on with the group?"

The combat staff showed embarrassment: "Master Sergeant, the outer line of the forest has been blocked by the Hanhai cavalry, and our scouts will be besieged as soon as they go out..."

Li Qing waved his hand: "I don't care about that much. There are more than 1 brothers in the [-] Banner Regiment. I can't just sit and watch them being eaten by the Hanhai people. I must find out their situation immediately. Are they defeated or not?" Standing firm, we can arrange and formulate a rescue plan here."

The combat staff gritted his teeth and agreed. He was ready to throw out the entire scout flag battalion. He must break through the blockade of the Hanhai Cavalry and find out the situation in Juelong Town.

The news that the advance troops of the Nanchuan Army encountered a large number of main forces of the Hanhai Army on the Huayu Plain quickly spread to the rear as the Raven took off.

In the various corps in the rear, the flag regiment troops learned that the main force of the enemy was encountered on the front line, and immediately took action. On the provincial highway in Kadong Province, no matter the day or night, it was the mighty Nanchuan Army troops rushing forward.

The various regiments of the Nanchuan Army are still on their way to help. The five flag regiments in the hands of sergeant Li Qing are facing several Hanhai cavalry divisions. Distraught.

The fighting in Juelong Town has also entered a fever pitch. According to the order of Hanhai Frontline Commander Metes, several Hanhai divisions took turns to attack the Nanchuan [-] Banner Regiment in Juelong Town, and they were about to wipe them out.

"boom!"

Stones as big as millstones flew up into the air with a whistling sound, and smashed heavily into Juelong Town. The houses in the town collapsed, and many Nanchuan soldiers who couldn't dodge were smashed to pieces immediately.

The rumbling sound continued, and the whole town was shaking violently. If the wooden houses were hit, they would be destroyed immediately. The smoke and dust filled the air, and there were ruins everywhere in Juelong Town.

As soon as the Hanhai people's trebuchets stopped, the black arrows enveloped them again. With the screams and blood splashing, the Nanchuan soldiers suffered an unprecedented blow.

Chang Mo, the commander of the banner regiment, let out a muffled groan suddenly. His arm was pierced by an arrow, and the severe pain made his expression painful.

He gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow that pierced through his arm, and the bloody arrow flew. He cut a piece of cloth with his war knife and wrapped it up while biting his teeth.

Suddenly, Chang Mo felt a heat on his face, and turned his head to look. One of his guards was pierced through the head by an arrow, and he fell straight in his arms.

"Master Banner Commander! Hanhai's infantry is coming up again!" An aide came running from a distance with a shield on his head, and shouted at Chang Mo, the Banner Commander.

"Brothers! Follow me to meet the enemy!" Chang Mo started to fight, raising his knife and shouting loudly.

Countless Hanhai soldiers in blue battle armor rushed towards Juelong Town from all directions screaming. They were very excited and wanted to kill these Nanchuan soldiers and gain military exploits.

But the Nanchuan soldiers who were trapped in Juelong Town were not to be trifled with. Although they were exhausted, they all rose up to resist, and the two sides fought bloody in Juelong Town.
