Chapter 171 Riding amphibious combat

The cavalrymen of the Yongwei Battalion dismounted and held muskets, and turned into musketeers. They were divided into three rows of ten people and loaded the medicine in an orderly manner without even looking at the thieves, let alone being afraid.

The sergeants of the Yongwei Battalion quickly loaded the medicine. They looked coldly at the shouting bandits rushing towards them. In their eyes, these bandits were just shouts of struggle before death.

When the thieves rushed within a hundred steps, Li Shaoyou said coldly: "Fire!"

"Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah..." The sound of a gun blasting like exploding beans rang out, a large plume of gunpowder smoke rose up, and a large piece of the charging bandit immediately fell down.

After the first row of musketeers completed their firing, they quickly retreated from both sides of the street to the last row and continued loading ammunition.

The second row of musketeers fired another round, then the third row, and then the original first row came up again, and so on, the gunfire and firepower continued.

The bandits on the opposite side let out bursts of screams. Some of the people hit by the lead bullets were shot to death, and some rolled to the ground in pain. They didn't even have a layer of armor on their bodies, and they were directly killed within a hundred steps.

Got a pair of piercings.

The bandits were already falling down before they could get within fifty steps of firing arrows. Some of the shields in front were useless, and even the shields of people and people were penetrated. The eyes of the bandits were full of fear, and the remaining people

I was so frightened that I turned around and ran away.

The sound of fire cannons was ignored, and they sounded one after another. Every time they fired, people kept falling down, and the ground was covered with blood. The other thieves who were hiding around the houses on both sides felt a chill in their backs, and they turned around one after another.

Run away, how dare you ambush those murderous gods on the other side.

Tuo Xianling was a little panicked. If this bunch of fools dispersed, the cavalry of the officers and soldiers would mount their horses and continue the pursuit. Then he would be completely finished. He roared and shouted: "Don't run! Come on, I'll do it."

They! Share the war horses and heavy armor among yourselves!"

"Where's your mother? I'm almost dead!" A bandit ran past him and muttered.

There was another burst of shooting, once again harvesting the lives of the bandits, and even some of the elite soldiers from the old battalion who ran slowly were killed.

There were fewer and fewer people in front of him, and Tuo Xianling on horseback was finally exposed to the sight of the musketeers. This time, a row of ten musketeers pointed their guns at him, and then pulled the trigger.

Several streams of blood appeared on Tuo Xianling's body. He was stunned at first, and then fell off the horse in a difficult position, stirring up a burst of dust.

Similar scenes took place on several other streets entering the town. Gunshots continued, smoke rose, and screams could be heard in various streets.

Every time the sound of volleys from the Yongwei Battalion sounded, the bandits would become even more confused, and even the elite veteran soldiers were confused.

As soon as Tuo Xianling died, the bandits without their leader became more chaotic and immediately fled completely. The old soldiers in the camp were waving their whips and driving their horses as fast as they could.

Seeing that all the old soldiers had run away, how could the others be willing to wait here to die? The nearly 10,000 thieves who had gathered in the town waiting for a surprise attack instantly collapsed and ran away in panic.

In fact, many people have no idea what is happening in front of them. According to past experience, they will only run away if they are defeated in front, or encounter strong officers and soldiers. Anyway, if you run in front, the ones behind will follow. The same is true if you win, and you will follow.

That’s it.

Seeing that the bandits were defeated, Sun Yingyuan did not pursue them immediately. There were many houses in the town, which was not conducive to the cavalry charge. If the bandits ran out of the town on their own, and then ended up in a flat area...

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Sun Yingyuan finally shouted: "Mount your horse and kill the thief!"

The bandits who were running wildly to the south were just about to stop and take a rest when they heard the rumble of horse hooves behind them. When everyone looked at it, they saw the cavalry of officers and soldiers rushing over again. Hundreds of them were lined up in the formation.

meters wide, everyone is holding a spear, and there are countless cavalry rolling behind.

"Kill the thief!"

The galloping cavalry and the dancing cold weapons rolled over, and the thieves were frightened. They panicked and ran away, fearing that they would be caught up and killed by the officers and soldiers if they fell behind.

Not long after, the cavalrymen from the Yongwei Battalion rode their horses and hit the subjects until they vomited blood and flew away. Some of them rolled to the ground, while others were trampled to pieces by the rolling iron cavalry.

The bandits had no ability to resist at all. They were thrown away by the spears of the Yongwei battalion cavalry and chopped to death with sabers. Each one of them screamed loudly, and their blood was continuously sprinkled on the land of northern Anhui.

Some of the old camp soldiers were the most enthusiastic about running. They were all elite cavalry, but there were only a few of them, less than a thousand. Most of the rest followed the leaders of the rogue bandits.

Sun Yingyuan said to Li Shaoyou beside him: "Li Shaoyou, you lead a thousand cavalry to pursue the old camp soldiers of the bandits. You must maim them and kill them!"

"I accept my order from my humble position!" Li Shaoyou cheered and immediately led his troops to pursue the old camp soldiers.

Li Shaoyou was born into a family of soldiers. Not only was he excellent in equestrian skills and brave in battle, but most importantly, he was quick in thinking. Although he was only in his early twenties, he had repeatedly made military exploits. This time he even killed Tuo Xianling. Sun Yingyuan was very relieved about him.

The cavalry of the Yongwei Battalion have harassed and pursued the Qing army many times, and then underwent very strict training. Now their riding skills are very impressive, and their combat capabilities have also been greatly improved.

Zhu Cixiang let the cavalry fight alone this time in order to train the cavalry's mobility and organizational skills and make the cavalry more powerful.

The Yongwei Battalion is an army with firearms as its main combat force. If you want to compare with the musketeers, the status of the cavalry can only be ranked second. Therefore, the cavalrymen all held their breath and wanted to go south this time.

Show yourself well in the battle.

The cavalrymen were full of fighting spirit. Everyone mobilized their horses and pursued them vigorously, but they only killed the bandits with heads rolling down their faces. They fell down one after another and died. Many of the bandits chose to kneel down and surrender.

In this battle, the cavalry battalion killed more than 10,000 enemies and captured more than 6,000 people. The other bandits had already disappeared.

Sun Yingyuan was arranging the prisoners to clean up the battlefield and deal with the aftermath. At this time, the Pegasus came to report that the crown prince and the Yongwei camp army were still half a day away from Fengyang, the central capital.

Sun Yingyuan nodded. It seemed that the war here had to be stepped up. He ordered the cavalry that was chasing the defeated troops to gather around him and appease the fleeing people nearby.

It was not until it was getting late that the people who had originally escaped slowly walked out of the Chai ditch in the distance and returned to the town.

The surrounding officers and soldiers and bandits had been killing each other for a whole day, and they were also frightened for a whole day. In order to prevent being attacked by the cavalry, they hid far away in a dry firewood ditch and waited for the officers and soldiers to calm down the chaos.

Some people saw Master Wang's power from a distance and felt a little happy. These bandits were in trouble. However, they were also worried. Will Master Wang rob their own property after driving away the bandits?

Some Long Xiang rode their horses wildly at night and found people hiding around them. They shouted loudly: "Master Wang put down the rebellion and Qiu did not commit any crimes. There is no need to panic, everyone can go home in peace!"

When the voice came, all the people were delighted. Among them, a highly respected old man named Su asked loudly: "Master, where are you from? Who is the general?"

"According to the order of the Crown Prince, the Yongwei Battalion sent out troops to suppress the rebellion!" Long Xiang rode his horse through the night without stopping, leaving behind a sonorous and powerful voice.

"It's really Master Wang!"

"Master Wang went south to put down the rebellion!"

The people were excited and hoped that the court could wipe out these thieves who had killed thousands of people as soon as possible so that they could live a peaceful life.
