Chapter 381

"kill!"

The rebels suddenly heard the sound of shouts and killings in the diagonal stabbing, and Di Cang returned with his cavalry.Shooting started from a hundred meters away, and the rebels were constantly being killed.When they got closer to 30 meters, Di Cang whistled and led the cavalry to turn their horses and retreat.

Seeing that Di Cang and the others retreated immediately, Hou An knew that they wanted to delay their attack.But there are not many cavalry on hand, so I can only make my men take precautions.If you want to attack the position of the official army as soon as possible, the official army has no artillery support at this time, and if you don't rush to attack, you will fall into a passive position.

"Brothers, follow me up. Let's pick the beautiful girls in the city first." Hou An shouted loudly.

"Haha, brothers, let's go."

The charge of the rebels suddenly intensified, and they were about to break through the first barrier and reach the front of the position.

"Soldiers, it's time to serve the country. We can't let them rush to the battlefield, rush down with me, and drive them back!" Dong Shang shouted, holding a knife.

"Serve the country!"

"Kill!"

Yuan Shang rushed to the rebels with more than 300 people in the forward position, stopping the formation of the rebels' attack.Hou An shouted: "Don't stop, keep attacking!"

The second-line officers and soldiers added to the position, and the machine guns started firing "chug-chug", killing a large number of rebels.This is Yuan Shangliu's backhand. Only when the rebels charge in a dense formation can the machine guns exert their power.

Otherwise, with their ammunition base, it is difficult to persist in a long-term battle.Fortunately, Hou An's troops were not equipped with machine guns, only a few old-fashioned light artillery, which could cause very little damage to the positions of the officers and troops.

Under the leadership of Yuan Shang, the officers and soldiers repelled Hou An's troops.Di Cang waited for the opportunity to sneak attack with all his heart, beheading hundreds of people.Hou An was so angry that he was about to get on his horse and fight Di Cang desperately. He did have a bit of courage, but when it came to commanding the formation of troops, he was not enough.

Wang Fan also knew in his heart that it would be difficult to defend the Xiaojie River with Hou An alone.So he wanted to take advantage of Hou An's bravery to defeat the army guarding the bridge in one fell swoop, and then let someone take over the position.

After that, Hou An can be arranged to find trouble with the cavalry of the official army. It is best for Hou An to eliminate them, and it can be delayed for a while no matter how bad it is.As long as the fortifications of Xiaojiehe are completed, he doesn't care about Hou An's life or death.

Seeing heavy casualties, the cavalry was almost wiped out.An angry Hou An yelled at the position of the officers and soldiers: "Damn, if you have the ability, come out and fight to the death. What kind of ability is it to bully people with a lance!"

Yuan Shang listened to his yelling and sneered and said, "You have no guts to be a gangster, if you have the ability to charge forward."

The two sides scolded each other for a while, and Hou An was held back by his own soldiers: "General, the officers and soldiers are delaying time. We will be in danger when their reinforcements arrive."

At this time Hou An suddenly woke up, brandishing a knife and shouting loudly: "Follow me to charge quickly! As long as you defeat the officers and soldiers, everyone will be rewarded!"

His subordinates were all horse bandits, and as soon as they heard that there was a reward, they rushed to the official army's position without fear of death, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

However, a small group of rebels had already reached the point of fire. Although machine guns were suppressing them, the officers and soldiers could not target them.Several people were also killed by them. Yuan Shang shouted: "Everyone enters the position, the enemy's charge is coming."

He saw that a large group of rebels had already started running, so he asked his men to be on guard.The figure commanding in the formation was exposed to the guns of the rebels, and was shot down by one of my rebels in the shell crater.

Seeing Yuan Shang fall, the officers and soldiers froze, and then started shooting again under the leadership of political commissar Chen Fang.The rebels were suppressed at a place less than 50 meters away from the position, where there were already a large number of corpses.Hou An commanded his men to pile up the corpses to block the bullets, and shot at the officers and soldiers there.

Several soldiers who were close hurriedly caught the fallen Yuan Shang, the bullet hit him in the stomach, the blood stained the military uniform, and Yuan Shang passed out.

There were medical soldiers on the ground, who hurried forward to bandage him to stop the bleeding.Although there is no danger of life, it is difficult to wake up in a short time.

Seeing the ferocious attack of the rebels from a distance, Di Cang rushed over again with his men.With the help of the impact of the horses, the formation of the rebels was cut off.However, dozens of people were also killed by the rebels, and it was difficult to continue fighting for a while, so they could only retreat.

Liu Bian put on the armor for Wu Zai, mounted his horse, and prepared to lead the troops to set off.

"My lord, the troops have been assembled." Song Ran rode over and said.

"set off!"

On the way, he continued to accelerate, and the speed had been raised to the extreme, heading towards the Xiaojiehe.Liu Bian estimated that the battle there would be very stalemate. After all, Wang Fan would not be ignorant of the importance of the Xiaojie River. At this time, the counterattack of the rebels should be very violent.

If an army of tens of thousands of people attacked, Zhang Chenghua should take the opportunity to send troops to eat this army.It's better to eat this army by himself, he needs the cavalry under his command to work together as soon as possible, so that he can continue to disrupt the situation on the Langya battlefield.

At this time, no one knew that Langya's city defense was empty, and they all thought that Wang Fan was a cautious person and put the main force in the city for defense.Even Liu Bian thought so, after all, there was no news of the mobilization of Langya's army from Niandengfang.

The army sent by Wang Fan was led by Shi Yuansi, although he had never been in the army before.However, he is quite famous in the local area, he is familiar with the art of war, and he is very good at leading troops and managing the army.He is also Wang Fan's sworn brother, and his daughter is married to Wang Zhenghong.

The in-law relationship with Wang Fan allowed him to be in charge of Langya's army, and now they have taken advantage of the emptiness behind the army to get behind Shi Xinghe's army.

Now he only has to wait for the messenger he sent to come back, and he and the Kong family's troops can defeat Shi Xinghe's army in one fell swoop.

"General, the messenger still hasn't returned." The junior officer said, clasping his hands.

Hearing Xiaoxiao's words, Shi Yuansi said: "Go and guard outside the camp. When the messenger comes back, let me know as soon as possible." Then he turned his head and continued to look at the map. There are already his troops near the points marked on the map. By ambush and waiting for his notice, these strategic locations can be taken down.

After Xiaoxiao retired, his deputy general Zhou Rong said: "General, will there be any accidents on the way?"

Shi Yuansi put down the oil lamp in his hand, pulled up the cloak on his body and said, "There shouldn't be any accidents, we also arrived a day earlier than expected."

"Besides, we marched on trails all the way and killed those who found our whereabouts along the way. The officers and soldiers should not find us. Wait until dawn tomorrow, regardless of whether the messenger returns or not, you will issue an order. Let's put those strategic Take it down."

Lieutenant General Zhou Rong cupped his hands and said: "The last general will go to prepare."
