Ma Fuxiang sighed, "Could it be that we can't cross the river?"

"If everyone is tied together with a rope, it is possible to cross the river, but those mountain cannons are too heavy to push across the river."

Ma Fuxiang raised his eyebrows: "Order the cavalry division to cross the river with platoons and horses tied tightly with ropes. I dismantle all the mountain cannons, and each cavalry team takes some parts. I think there are mountain cannon parts pressed It’s heavy, maybe it’s safer to cross the river.”

"Yes." The group leaders immediately went to prepare.The soldiers of the Independent Cavalry Division quickly used the ropes they carried to string people and horses into a long string, and at the same time fastened the weapons, bedding and other things all over the body to prevent them from being washed away by the river.

"The first sharp knife battalion goes into the water." Ma Fuxiang waved his hand, and the soldiers who were waiting for the order started to move immediately. The troops of a battalion were divided into twelve groups, and they slowly entered the river in platoons.The strongest platoon is the most upstream, resisting the water flow for the downstream platoons, so that the brother troops can relax.

Ma Fuxiang and many officers stared at the officers and soldiers entering the river. As the vanguard, they were responsible for the task of testing the crossing area. Once they could successfully cross the river, it would be no problem for the whole army to cross the river.The atmosphere on the river bank was very solemn, and everyone was waiting for the result.Ma Cheng, the commander of the Sharp Knife Battalion who was in charge of crossing the river, walked in the front, leading the cavalry platoon that was at the top.

No one dared to walk too fast, for fear of falling due to unstable center of gravity.In such a rushing river, once you fall, it is very difficult to stand up again.Finally, someone controlled the horse and fell into the water headlong. Fortunately, the rope was pulling it so that it was not washed away by the water.

"No one is allowed to stay, keep moving forward." Battalion Commander Ma Cheng shouted, ordering everyone to move forward, only the fallen platoon stayed where it was, desperately rescuing its soldiers.Ma Fuxiang clenched his hands tightly, and he was also very nervous, but as a qualified commander, no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't show it, because it would affect the morale of his subordinates.

Seeing the people who fell into the water were rescued and the soldiers of that platoon moved forward again, Ma Fuxiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.Soon the sharp knife battalion cautiously arrived at the opposite bank. When the soaked soldiers boarded the river bank, everyone cheered, and then the second battalion also started to enter the water, and the army began to slowly cross the river.

Ma Fuxiang and his guard company finally crossed the Qiaktu River. Although seven or eight people were washed away and their lives were unknown, the crossing was generally very successful.A search platoon was sent to find those who had been washed away, and Ma Fuxiang led the cavalry division on the road again. They were still a long way from their destination.

The two armies of Gao Yuhan and Deng Xihou gradually started to fight, and their charges became more and more sharp.In order to increase the lethality, many people braved the rain of bullets to bring the grenades hundreds of meters in front of the opponent's position, and used these grenades to violently bombard the Luocha army's position.

Although the power of grenades is not great, they are better in sufficient quantity.Once this kind of weapon, which can be regarded as the nemesis of the machine gun, was used, the machine gunners of the Raksha Army suffered great misfortune. In just two days, the Raksha Army lost more than half of their machine guns.

The artillerymen of the Rakshasa Army had to focus on the soldiers who were using grenades there, which invisibly relieved the pressure on the assault team. The fighting between the two sides became more and more intense, and even the few artillerymen of the two independent brigades joined the ranks of combat.The two sides went from artillery battles to gun battles, and then to hand-to-hand combat, and the battle became increasingly fierce.In the end, Gao Yuhan had to use the air force again to bomb the Luocha army's defense line.It is a pity that the number of Air Force aircraft is too small, and the mortar shells used are too weak to play a decisive role.

The battle on this day was extremely fierce, and the two sides finally stopped to rest until they defeated Tian Hei. As a result, the Raksha Army suffered more than 2000 casualties, and the Gao Yuhan Army suffered more than 400 casualties. There are only a few people left in the platoon.

"What is Ma Fuxiang doing? Why hasn't the battle planned in advance started yet? Could it be that our plan has been leaked?" Deng Xihou asked anxiously. Today's casualties made him feel very sad, and he wished to wipe out the Raksha people in front of him as soon as possible.

At this time, Ma Fuxiang was leading a team lurking outside the city of Kyakhta. According to the conclusions drawn by the scouts, Kyakhta was already an undefended city at this time.In order to strengthen the defense of Maimai City, Major General Ivan concentrated all his troops in Maimai City on the other side of the river, but in the end he took out the troops of Chakhtu.

Now defending Kyakta is a garrison team organized by the young and strong of the local Raksha country. Although Major General Ivan has given them a full amount of rifles, it is of little use.Such untrained youths are a mob.If it is still possible to fight to the death in the city, if there is a glimmer of life, their morale will collapse immediately.

Ma Fuxiang was so entangled in this that he didn't launch an attack immediately after the cavalry division arrived.Although Chakhtu and Maimai City are separated by the Chakhtu River, the straight-line distance is only more than 100 meters away.The defenders of the Rakshasa Army in Maimai City have boats, and they can quickly rush to the rescue of Chakta. Once the cavalry division is entangled in the city, the Rakshasa Army may quickly return to defense.

Chapter 456 A Fake Attack

After thinking about it, Ma Fuxiang decided to launch a night attack, taking advantage of the opponent's insensitivity and lack of training.Rely on the night battle to eliminate the opponent, and occupy this Rakshasa military station closest to the Outer Huns in one fell swoop.

The cavalry began to feel in the dark to reassemble the disassembled mountain cannons. Everyone skillfully cleaned the guns, waiting for the order to attack.The calm Ma Fuxiang did not choose to attack by force, but sent several groups of scouts and the first regiment following closely behind.

Most of the scouts are unselected special warfare divisions, and their technical and tactical level is far higher than that of ordinary soldiers.Using the height of the horses, these people quickly climbed up the not-so-high city wall of Kyakta.After killing the unsuspecting sentries, they quietly opened the gate.

The north gate was opened first, and the cavalry soldiers rushed into the city without a sound. They put all their horses outside the city to prevent too much noise.Each troop was quickly divided into countless units based on squads, and rushed towards various important places in the city.Without any preparation, those youths of Rakshasa who had no quality at all were disarmed in their sleep.By the time they came to their senses, the cavalry division had taken control of the entire city.

After sending out two regiments to patrol the streets, and gathering all the Raksha people together for centralized surveillance, Ma Fuxiang's heart fell to the ground, and his sneak attack finally succeeded.As soon as his eyes turned, Ma Fuxiang took a plan, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to open the arsenal in the city of Kyakhta, pull out all the artillery of various calibers and place them on the city wall, and those cavalry trained in artillery measured the city wall and the Raksha army. The angle and distance between the camps were adjusted one by one.

Gao Yuhan and Deng Xihou waited for a whole night, but still did not wait for the news that Ma Fuxiang's surprise attack was successful.The two wondered secretly, what was the reason why Ma Fuxiang did not carry out the sneak attack as scheduled, and did not even send a telegram.

How did the two of them know that Ma Fuxiang had secretly occupied the city of Kyakhta.As for the failure to send a telegram, it was because the telegraph machine was damaged by water when crossing the river, and it was impossible to send a telegram at all, which caused the two parties to lose contact.

"No matter what, we must continue to increase our offensive strength, and we must not let the Raksha people sit idle. If the other party notices something different, the cavalry division will be in big trouble." Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Gao Yuhan slapped the table stood up and said.

"Alright, let's fight the Raksha people for one more day. We just hope that the casualties will not be too many. I think we can let the air force increase the bombing intensity, which can relieve the pressure on the ground." Deng Xihou's heart was quite heavy, despite the casualties Most of the numbers are wounded, and they can return to the army as long as they recover.But after all, these wounded need to lie on the beds in the field hospital, and they will have no fighting power in a short time. Facing the decreasing number of combat soldiers, his heart is very heavy.

"Alright, let the Air Force take off immediately to fight. This time, kill the artillery of the Raksha people first." Deng Xihou nodded in agreement, and he immediately asked the radio operator to transmit the order to the Air Force.

After receiving the order to attack, the air force who had been waiting in front of the planes dispatched collectively. The eight reconnaissance planes in a brigade were all loaded with mortar shells, and one after another rose into the sky.This is the beginning of the Hualan Air Force entering the war arena on a large scale, and they must show results.According to the training of the aviation school, the pilots formed a formation in the air and flew towards the direction of Maimai City.

"The air force has been dispatched, let's start the attack. This time, let's let the eighth brigade go first, cover with heavy weapon fire and prepare to charge." Deng Xihou said with a wave of the pistol in his hand.

"Blow the charge horn." Deng Xihou gave an order, and the loud trumpet sounded, and the heavy machine guns on the Shu army's position fired almost simultaneously, suppressing the firepower of the Luocha army.Then thousands of soldiers threw off their backpacks and all their loads, put bayonets and rifles on their hands, and launched an attack on the Raksha Army's position.

The soldiers of the Luocha army shot desperately, hoping to kill more Hualan people, but in every squad of the Shu army, there was a sharpshooter.Those Rakshasa Army soldiers who are the most active or have the most firepower will soon be taken care of by them.

Seeing that the Shu army launched an attack, the artillery of the Luocha army quickly started firing salvos, and the dense shells fell on the battlefield, causing thick smoke to billow.Even with the optimized triangular formation, opening a gap of more than 40 meters to launch a charge, the casualties of the Shu army are still rising rapidly, and Deng Xihou felt distressed watching it.

The rumbling sound in the sky came quickly, the airport was only a dozen miles away from the trading city, and the plane arrived in no time.Not long after the Army's offensive was launched, eight reconnaissance planes arrived as scheduled.According to the prior agreement, Li Ruyan was the first to lower the height when she pressed the nose of the aircraft.The remaining seven planes followed closely behind and rushed towards the artillery positions of the Raksha Army.

Zhao Yunpeng, who was sitting in the back seat of Li Ruyan, saw the opportunity and was the first to drop the bomb, followed by the second plane, the third plane, and eight planes dropped the bombs one by one, and then pulled up again.A series of mortar shells exploded on the artillery positions of the Luocha army. Although these shells were not powerful, they greatly affected the artillery operations of the Luocha army.The Rakshasa army had no ability to resist the attack from the air, and the soldiers fled in all directions, and the shelling was forced to stop.

Major General Ivan looked at the attack from the sky a little stupidly. He hadn't paid attention to it when he saw that the bombing power of the plane was not strong yesterday.But today the Shu army air force changed its tactics and hit the vital points directly, which made the artillery of the Luocha army suddenly misfired. However, the bad luck of the Luocha army today is far from over.

Immediately afterwards, a large cloud of thick smoke suddenly rose from the top of the city of Chaktu, followed by a rumbling sound like thunder, which attracted everyone's attention.Major General Ivan turned his head curiously, wanting to see what happened behind him, but before he could clearly see the situation behind, dense shells had already covered the Raksha Army's position like raindrops.

The sound of explosions was endless, and the artillery of the Raksha Army who had just been bombed by the air force was hit hard again.Originally, the damage caused by the mortar shells was not that great, and the damage suffered by the Rakshasa Army was more due to the psychological damage they suffered in the face of unknown things.If it was just the bombing of the plane, it would be a battle of delayed artillery at most. When the plane dropped all the bombs and left, the artillery of the Raksha Army would soon be able to resume combat effectiveness.

The bombardment from Kyakta City was another matter. The bombardment with more powerful and dense shells actually hit the artillery position of the Raksha Army, even though all the soldiers of the Raksha Army on the position had fled at this time.People can run out, but the bulky artillery is difficult to move.The cavalry divisions also don't need to be accurate, they win purely by numbers, as long as the artillery is roughly aimed at the position, it will be a fierce bombardment, which makes the people of Rakshasa lose their temper.

Chapter 457

Seeing the destruction of the artillery positions, the artillery of the cavalry division immediately shifted their targets. There are hundreds of 75mm infantry guns found in the warehouse. These are the material reserves of the Irkutsk Military Region, but now they are cheap. Hualan people.

The sound of cannons kept ringing, and the powerful firepower of the cavalry division devastated the position of the Rakshasa Army on the opposite bank. The soldiers of the Rakshasa Army suffered heavy casualties, and it was difficult to form a powerful counterattack.Facing the enemy's predicament, Gao Yuhan seized the opportunity and ordered the whole army to charge.

Seeing that the shelling from the opposite bank suppressed the Luocha army, the officers and soldiers of the Shu army knew that reinforcements were coming, their morale was greatly boosted, and they rushed to the Luocha army's position with bayonet-mounted rifles.On the other hand, the Rakshasa Army was just the opposite. After learning that Qiakta had been occupied by the opponent, their morale dropped to the bottom again.The collapsed frontline Raksha army gave up their positions and retreated to the rear. They crossed the trading city without entering, and rushed straight to the river.

In the eyes of the Raksha people, Maimai City is the land of the Hualan people after all, and they have no sense of intimacy when stationed here.These officers and soldiers from ordinary families in Northern Lia are more willing to fight on their own land, so when the situation is unfavorable, they naturally think of withdrawing to the country.

The Rakshasa army flocked to the river, but there were only a dozen ferries there, and it might take a long time to get tens of thousands of Rakshasa troops across the river.The Luocha army had no choice but to divide their troops to block the approaching Gaoyuhan soldiers, and the fighting between the two sides became more and more fierce.

Ma Fuxiang gathered all the artillery deployed by the cavalry division and stayed in the city to operate the artillery, and sent a cavalry regiment to help the artillery.Then he gathered the remaining less than [-] cavalry and laid an ambush in the city of Qiaktu, waiting for the most favorable time to fight.

The shells from the artillery of the cavalry division and the artillery of Gao Yuhan's independent brigade did not stop for a moment, causing heavy losses to the Raksha people. They finally tasted the feeling of being suppressed by artillery fire.At this time, Major General Ivan was in a panic. He took the guards to cross the Chaktu River first, hoping to gather troops on the opposite bank and stabilize his position again.

Although it is no longer easy to enter the territory of the Outer Huns to gain more benefits for the Rakshasa Empire.But at least he can organize troops to recapture the city of Kyakhta, lest he be dismissed and investigated for losing land.

More and more Luocha troops crossed the Qiaktu River. They regrouped on the bank of the river and blocked the attack of the Gaoyuhan tribe across the river.The Raksha army who hadn't crossed the river was already in a mess. They rushed to board the boat, hoping to get out of danger as soon as possible. As a result, many people were squeezed into the river.

Although the Kyakhtu River is not wide, the river is very turbulent because of its high altitude and slope from the Altai Mountains.Ma Fuxiang led the cavalry division, and it was very reluctant to cross the river on horseback, let alone the infantry of the Luocha army.As a result, the soldiers who fell into the water had no time to shout "God", they were wrapped in the river and rushed downstream. As for whether they survived, it only depends on their character.

Just as thousands of Rakshasa troops crossed the Kyakhta River, the artillery in the city of Kyakhta suddenly shifted their targets and began to violently bombard the crossing Rakshasa army.The dense artillery shells hit the area near the river bank until the soil was churning, and the Raksha army who had no fortifications to cover them was even more vulnerable to the sudden blow, and the casualties began to rise in a straight line.

Seeing that the time had come, Ma Fuxiang immediately opened the four doors.The soldiers of the cavalry division raised their sabers high and shouted all kinds of slogans, urging their horses to fight out of the city.

After being baptized by shelling, there was another violent attack by cavalry, and the Raksha army was completely chaotic.They threw away their rifles one after another, and fled in all directions with their heads in their arms. Although Major General Ivan tried his best to stop the rout and formed a new formation by the river to fight against the cavalry, it had little effect.It was too late for everything, the defeat was overwhelming, and finally Major General Ivan had to join the ranks of fleeing.

In the first battle in the trading city of Chakhtu, two divisions of the Rakshasa Army were defeated, with more than 2 casualties and 4000 captured.The victory of the Shu army was not easy. More than 2000 people were killed and nearly [-] wounded soldiers needed to recuperate.The number of people who can continue to fight, even including the cavalry division, is only about [-].

Gao Yuhan knew that his side had almost lost its combat effectiveness. If the Rakshasa army continued to increase its troops, it would be difficult for them to hold on to the Maimai City and Kyakhtu that they had already acquired.After gathering all senior officers to plan together, Deng Xihou volunteered to lead a reorganized regiment to garrison Qiaktu City as the vanguard against the Rakshasa Army.

All the weapons, equipment and luggage in Chaktu were transported across the river by boat and gathered in the trading city.The Shu army overhauled the artillery positions along the Kyakhtu River, and placed almost all the available artillery there as fire support for the Kyakhta city. Gao Yuhan then sent a report to Pan Wenhua to report the situation here.At this time, Pan Wenhua couldn't help in terms of military strength, because after entering Tangnu Wulianghai, his military strength was also stretched.

Tangnu Wulianghai is located in the northwest of the Outer Huns, with Sayan Mountains in the north, Tangnu Mountain in the south, Barnaul in the west, and Sugulpo in the east. It is a basin surrounded by mountains with an area of ​​more than 20 square kilometers.Tangnu Wulianghai is the nomadic land of the Huns Wulianghai. Since the Tang Dynasty, it has established a vassal relationship with the Tang Dynasty, and established the Jiankun Dudufu in [-] AD, which is under the jurisdiction of the Anbei Duhufu.

After the decline of the Later Jin Empire, the Raksha Kingdom took advantage of the second Opium War to force the Later Jin Empire to sign the Treaty of the Capital of the Hualuo Emperor. Book of Jokes, and occupied the Amuha River area in the west of the Tangnu Ulianghai area.

In 1869, representatives of Hua and Luo established eight demarcation signs in the west of Tangnu Ulianghai area, and signed the "Uliasutai Boundary Treaty", which completely delineated the border between Hua and Luo in this area.
