"Boom! Boom!" The cannonballs exploded among the cavalry formations that were charging at high speed. The strong air waves erupted, throwing the cavalrymen high into the sky, and the flying shrapnel killed them mercilessly.
When the artillery battalion of the Western Sichuan Army deployed 12 Type 82 infantry cannons and aimed them at Gu Hongqiang and his henchmen, their fate was already determined. The shells tore their bodies apart one after another, killing them.
Sent into the arms of God.
"Boom!" A cannonball exploded next to Gu Hongqiang. He suddenly felt that he was thrown up. The horse under his crotch had already fallen to the ground with a wailing sound. With a "bang", he fell to the ground.
, felt a pain in his chest, and saw blood spurting out from his chest like a fountain. He wanted to shout, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked, and he could not make any sound, so he could only watch helplessly.
Stare at the blue sky until your eyes lose their luster.
Under the superior firepower of the Western Sichuan Army, the six battalions of cavalry that went south from Maqin to support Yushu suffered heavy casualties. Anyone who wanted to resist were all shot dead mercilessly. The remaining people lay down holding their heads.
Trembling on the ground.
Five minutes later, the Western Sichuan Army stopped firing. After the smoke cleared, the entire Yiniugou valley had turned into a hellish scene. There were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and scarlet blood was flowing in the valley, gathering into a
After crossing the creek, the ownerless horses were either wandering in confusion, or wailing in front of their owners who had died early in the morning.
"The battle is over, we are completely victorious. But the ammunition consumption seems to be a bit high!" Cai Yun put down the telescope in his hand and said with some waning interest, as if he thought this battle was too easy.
"Uncle Cai, it is very rare to be able to annihilate six thousand Green Horse Army with such small casualties. Although the ammunition consumption is relatively large, the lives of the soldiers are always the most important. Besides, the prisoners below are very valuable to us.
Very useful, the 11th Brigade is still waiting for these people to replenish it!" Wang Yuze said. When there were only two of them, he always called Cai Yun and Uncle Cai. This can make the relationship between them closer.
Cai Yun is a very capable person. In Wang Yuze's view, after the country is unified in the future, Cai Yun will be the Minister of Defense!
"Well! Let them order the Green Horse Army to surrender!" Cai Yun nodded. Wang Yuze was very satisfied that Wang Yuze could value the lives of soldiers so much. After all, who in the army doesn't want to have a soldier who loves him?
Where is the commander-in-chief of Ruzi? And now, Wang Yuze's performance is undoubtedly very much appreciated by Cai Yun. This also makes Cai Yun feel that Wang Yuze will be the best choice to inherit Western Sichuan.
"Listen to the Qingma Army below, put down your weapons and surrender, and I will spare your life!" Suddenly, a voice came from the mountain wall next to the valley.
"Hand in your guns and don't kill!" Then, the soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army in the forest on the mountain wall shouted one after another, and their voices resounded throughout the Yiniugou Valley.
The remaining soldiers of the Qing Ma Army did not move and looked at their commander in unison. Now, Gu Hongqiang had been killed. Among the surviving Qing Ma Army soldiers, the ninth battalion commander Lu Yuanqing had the official position of
The highest.
"Brother Lu, you decide whether to fight or surrender!" Several other battalion commanders spoke one after another, leaving the decision-making power to Lu Yuanqing.
Lu Yuanqing smiled helplessly. He didn't know what these people were thinking. If the Western Sichuan Army failed in the end, and the superiors investigated, it would be Lu Yuanqing who surrendered, and he had no responsibility for them.
"War? What to fight for? Are you waiting to be massacred by the Western Sichuan Army?" Lu Yuanqing said with a sarcastic smile.
The other battalion commanders immediately fell silent. It was not that they didn't know that if they persisted in fighting, they would have no chance of survival either. But in order to shirk responsibility in the future, they gave the decision-making power to Lu Yuanqing.
"For our own lives, and for the lives of many soldiers, surrender!" Lu Yuanqing sighed and said helplessly.
"Surrender, we surrender!" The battalion commanders immediately shouted loudly. With expressions of relief on their faces, they surrendered and didn't have to die. Even if they were held responsible in the end, it had nothing to do with them at all.
It’s the best of both worlds!
The soldiers of the Qingma Army who were originally confused also started shouting after hearing such an order, and their faces were full of surprises.
Later, some soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army went down to the valley, collected all the weapons of the prisoners, and then took care of them. At the last count, there were more than 5,000 captured Qingma Army soldiers, and only a few
Up to a thousand people were killed in the battle. However, among these prisoners, there were hundreds of seriously injured people. Even if these seriously injured prisoners received simple treatment, it is estimated that it would be difficult to survive. However, the war was originally
That's it. If there is a war, people will definitely die. The Western Sichuan Army can provide simple treatment to them, which is already the most benevolent and righteous thing.
The losses of the Western Sichuan Army were minimal. In this battle, only two unlucky soldiers were shot and killed by stray bullets. Only a few people were slightly injured, and no one was seriously injured. Such battle losses are undoubtedly extremely serious.
Astonishing.
Next, the battlefield was cleaned and all the corpses were buried to prevent plague or the like from happening when the temperature got higher and higher. When all this was done, it was already evening.
At this time, there was a rapid sound of horse hoofbeats from the south. However, it was not the enemy, but the people from the 11th Brigade of the Western Sichuan Army. After they heard that the Western Sichuan Army and the Qingma Army were fighting in Yiniugou, they came immediately. However,
, they obviously arrived too late, the battle was already over, and the Western Sichuan Army once again achieved a great victory.
"Young Marshal, Chief of Staff, the battle is over?" Ma Qi asked with a surprised look on his face. Originally, he came in a hurry with the 11th Brigade, hoping to participate in the final battle! He didn't expect to arrive when he arrived.
, the battle has ended long ago, and even the battlefield has been cleaned.
"It's over! You guys are too late!" Wang Yuze said with a smile.
"Young Marshal, what was the result of the battle?" Ma Yuntao asked.
"The 10th Brigade lost two men and wiped out more than 6,000 enemies. Among them, more than 5,000 were captured, and more than 4,000 could be reorganized!" Cai Yun said with a smile.
"Oh my God! We wiped out 6,000 enemies and only lost two people. Isn't this incredible?" Ma Qi and other officers of the 11th Brigade smacked their lips. If all the battle losses were like this, even if the Ma Jiajun
All three companies combined can't compete with the Western Sichuan Army.
"Chief of Staff, can these prisoners be handed over to our Eleventh Brigade? With them, our Eleventh Brigade will be full!" said Ma Yuntao, Chief of Staff of the Eleventh Brigade.
"No problem, you send someone to take care of the prisoners! Those who are willing to join us, let them join the 11th Brigade. However, those officers must be escorted back to Qamdo for custody. We will decide what to do with them after the war!" Cai Yun
said.
"Yes! Chief of Staff!" Ma Qi and Ma Yuntao immediately took the order.
After most of the prisoners joined the 11th Brigade, the total number of soldiers in the 11th Brigade reached more than 8,000. Except for the weapons and equipment that could not keep up with the 10th Brigade, the personnel configuration was almost the same as that of the 10th Brigade.
Because there was no heavy equipment, the 11th Brigade organized its subordinate troops into eight battalions, each with a strength of more than 1,000 men. The battalion commanders were all old men who were at the time of Nangqian's surrender and those who were at the time of Yushu's surrender.
The general of the Qingma Army. Originally, these people had no sense of belonging to the Western Sichuan Army. But after seeing the terror of the Western Sichuan Army again, they did not dare to have two minds about the Western Sichuan Army. At the same time, in view of the previous Bai Meng
This time he got his wish and became the deputy brigade commander of the 11th Brigade.
The next day, the Western Sichuan Army set off again and headed for Maqin. The two brigades, with a total of 16,000 to 7,000 people, fought against Maqin in a mighty manner. After two days of marching, on the morning of April 10, the Western Sichuan Army
The soldiers of the 10th and 11th brigades of the army approached Maqin. At this moment, Maqin had already closed the city gate tightly. Many Qingma Army soldiers on the city wall looked at the densely packed Western Sichuan Army in horror.
