"Kill!" Jiu She, the second brigade commander of the Canglang Division who was rushing at the front, had a hint of coldness in his eyes. As a former Beidi native and now a Chinese, he had never looked down upon the South Vietnamese. In the eyes, they are also aliens and enemies that must be destroyed.
After Jiu She gave the order, he rushed over at the lead. Using the speed of his horse, the sinking knife in his hand quickly passed through the necks of the rushing South Vietnamese troops, bringing out a shower of blood.
There are too many natural advantages when riding against infantry. In addition, the South Vietnamese Army rushed to the battle and fought with a small number of troops. Even if they did not have much advantage in numbers, how could they be the opponent of the Canglang Camp Cavalry?
In just half an hour, the bodies of South Vietnamese soldiers were left on the ground. The generals of the second brigade, led by their brigade commander Jiu She, continued to follow the escaping South Vietnamese soldiers. passed.
The war has been going on until now, and everything is in chaos.
The ones who escaped ran away very fast, and those who attacked were pursuing them from the front and back, both fast and slow. The whole battlefield was filled with chaos.
When the battlefield becomes criss-crossed, it also heralds the arrival of the South Vietnamese Army's defeat.
Especially when the Canglang Battalion pursued so fast that the number of captives exceeded the number they could control, they finally had to slow down their progress.
When the situation became such that there were often more than 2,000 prisoners in the hands of the Canglang Camp soldiers, who often numbered a thousand, their advance slowed down.
This also affected the speed of advancement. Each correspondent soldier ran quickly on the battlefield, looking for the main force of his army so that they could come over and hand over the prisoners in their hands.
Tang Ao destroyed the food and fodder of the South Vietnamese army on the left wing overnight, and when he rushed to the Chinese army's position, he saw exactly this scene.
When many communications soldiers saw Tang Ao and his party, they nervously wanted to step forward and salute, but Tang Ao waved his hands indifferently, "This is a battlefield, there is no need to be polite. By the way, you are in such a hurry. ,What do you mean?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, there are too many prisoners captured on the battlefield. We have limited manpower and cannot guard them at all. The generals asked us to look for the infantry behind us, hoping to speed them up and come to receive the prisoners. "An articulate communications soldier acted as a representative and explained what happened.
"Is there such a thing?" Tang Ao was stunned after hearing the reason. Obviously, he and the staff had never thought that such a thing would happen. All this was because so many small tribes surrendered, so that the cavalry Moving forward too fast.
It can only be said that the success of the war exceeded everyone's previous imagination, and only then did new problems arise.
But this new problem is a good thing. Tang Ao's expression quickly returned to normal and he said: "In this way, pass on my order so that all the Canglang battalion cavalry will not have to worry about the prisoners, but only need to focus on chasing the enemy and Just kill the enemies who resist."
"promise."
Naturally, the communication soldiers had no objection to Tang Ao's words. No matter what the consequences of passing the order would be, they all followed the order and left.
Seeing the communication soldiers leaving quickly one by one, Tang Ao said to Ao San beside him: "Send out the Eighteen Snow Shadow Cavalry, quickly notify the infantry coming behind you, let them speed up, and at the same time tell Zhou Qian and Qin Xuan, the two commanders, asked them to send their cavalry regiments to the left and right wings of the battlefield. If they see anyone escaping, kill them!"
The surrender of the South Vietnamese Army was probably due to inferior strength. Whether they were really willing to surrender in their bones remains to be seen. Even so, it would be better to give them a chance to show off, and if there are other people on their minds,
Things will inevitably happen again because no one is watching over them. For such people, it is not wrong to kill them. When the time comes, you will not have to blame yourself for not giving them a chance.
This is a temptation, a test of the human heart.
Only a man as broad-minded as Tang Ao dared to do this. He also believed that if he could defeat these prisoners once, he could defeat them a second and third time.
After Tang Ao's order was issued, more and more Canglang Battalion cavalry began to leave on the battlefield, leaving behind a group of South Vietnamese soldiers who had thrown away their weapons.
In fact, even their weapons were not completely collected, but were piled up not far from them. And there was no cavalry guard from the Canglang Battalion there, so it was a completely empty area.
Faced with such a scene, many South Vietnamese surrendered troops looked panicked. They couldn't figure out what was going on? Why did the Dahua cavalry guarding them withdraw? Was this to test them? Or was it?
Because of other reasons?
I couldn't figure it out for a while, but no one dared to move. Some people just looked at each other. Obviously they were still doubting whether there were cavalry from the Great Chinese Army nearby paying attention to their every move. As long as they made other movements,
Will these people jump out and kill them?
They waited and watched for half an hour. During this period, nothing changed, and they never saw a Chinese cavalryman appear in front of them. It seemed that they had really been forgotten.
"No matter what, let's fight for freedom." A South Vietnamese sergeant wearing armor and looking like an ordinary soldier stood up. In fact, he was a centurion, and his previous surrender was due to his inferior strength.
, and all the brothers under his command were scattered, so in order to survive, they had to choose to surrender.
But now, he actually had a chance to escape again, so of course he had to seize it.
In this way, the centurion was the first to stand up, and then trotted to the pile of weapons. He picked up a long knife and weighed it in his hand.
He ran towards an uninhabited place in the distance.
Every move of the centurion was seen in the eyes of the other captive soldiers. After seeing that nothing happened to him, the others also took action, and some began to follow the same example and escape again.
But most of the people stayed where they were. They were really frightened by the thunder from the Great Chinese Army. The thing seemed to be everywhere and endless, which made them give up their thoughts of resistance.
Let’s not talk about how many soldiers surrendered and escaped. Let’s just say that the Canglang camp came all the way and was invincible. It was unknown how many people were killed. Almost all the soldiers were wearing blood-stained robes. If they were not particularly familiar people, they were definitely
Can't tell who is who.
It was gradually getting dark again. The Canglang Camp cavalry who had been fighting continuously for a day and night were physically exhausted, but their spirits were still very full. This was a battle to destroy the country. After this incident, I don’t know how many meritorious personnel will appear.
When I think about returning home with meritorious deeds and being envied by everyone, the feeling of fatigue is not so strong.
"Everyone rest for half an hour." The voice of Brigadier Jiushe shouted.
Soldiers may not rest, but war horses cannot. Excessive use of war horses will only deplete the potential of war. This is undesirable and unwise.
The brigade commander gave the order, and except for a few soldiers responsible for security patrols, the other soldiers jumped off their horses and took out the horse food bundled on their horses and delivered them to the horses.
After all this work, the other soldiers should eat and solve their personal problems. But Jiu She, as the brigade commander, could not rest. He called several regiment commanders and brigade commanders under him.
The combat staff of the Ministry is studying the next combat strategy.
"Brigade commander, we should be at this position. Brigadier Lu Tian's first brigade should advance about 20 miles ahead of our left flank." A staff officer pointed to the military map that had just been rolled out and described the current battle situation.
"Well, the speed of the first brigade is very fast." Jiu She nodded and praised, but he was not envious, not for anything else. The two of them have different personalities. One is focused on hitting hard and the other is demanding.
Play slowly and steadily.
"In this way, after resting for an hour, we will move closer to the first brigade headquarters. Remember what the emperor said before we came. The enemy has not been completely defeated. He still has the ability to fight back. If anyone underestimates the enemy or transfers
If you are careful, you may suffer a loss." Jiu She said with the idea of playing it safe and steady.
It was not unreasonable for Tang Aohui to take a fancy to Jiu She. His sensitivity on the battlefield was indeed very good. It seemed that at this time, the first brigade under Lu Tian was being attacked by Li Yongli because he was rushing forward too fast.
The South Vietnamese cavalry was mobilized and besieged.
The sudden night attack launched by the Chinese army, including the breakthrough of the left wing, indeed caught Li Yongli off guard. But to say that he gave up because of this would be a stretch.
After all, he was a tycoon who could unify all the tribes in South Vietnam. It would be unrealistic to say that he would give up resistance with just one blow.
After learning that the battle situation was not going well, he immediately chose to retreat. With his own safety intact, Li Yongli quickly launched a counterattack. The first ones he mobilized were those who had to retreat due to unfavorable attacks.
South Vietnamese cavalry.
South Vietnam also has tens of thousands of cavalry. When the previous attack was unfavorable, thousands of people died, but the main force was still there. When I learned that the cavalry of the Chinese Army actually rushed dozens of miles day and night, they were completely separated from the infantry army behind them.
At this distance, Li Yongli felt the opportunity coming.
It is not that the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth lines of defense previously preset did not play a role. At least because of the existence of these lines of defense, it greatly slowed down the speed of the Dahua Army's infantry attack.
The existence of several lines of defense divided the attacking Chinese army into several places. According to the news sent back by the frontline scouts, Li Yongli was thinking about how to defeat these Chinese armies one by one.
