Chapter 196 Skyscraper Ridge, the key to landing on the mainland stage

"Well done, grandma, can you see who it is?"

He lay in the trench and looked down from the high ground with a telescope. Suddenly, there was an explosion in the Russian camp. The fire was soaring into the sky. Countless sleeping Russian soldiers were awakened and ran around with guns and shooting randomly.

Seeing this scene, Hu Sangui grinned and slammed the mound beside him. On this day, he was almost suppressed by the Russians. He had been thinking about whether to bring troops to a counterattack, but after weighing it again and again, he had to continue to stay in the pit against the dense rain of the Russian army. But even so, the situation is no longer optimistic. The battle has been reduced by more than 30%, and the machine gun has been stopped not long ago because of its long-term use. The most important thing is that the ammunition is also tense, and the mortars have less than five rounds left, which makes the third battalion have to consider putting the shells at the most critical time. It's done!

There is no big problem in losing the cover of mortars. Anyway, there are not many Russian cannons. The most important thing is that if you can't give the soldiers a little confidence, no one knows when the defense line will collapse!

Now, someone finally fulfilled his wish in his place, and unexpectedly attacked the Russian camp at the most sleepy time in the early morning! Did the supporting brother troops arrive?

"It's not very clear, but it doesn't look very big." Next to him, the instructor shook his head, and his face was still solemn.

Hu Sangui also saw at this time that the scratching and explosion were only in the northeast corner and did not extend to the depth. He sighed from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that this might be a reconnaissance company nearby, and the soldiers around him also sighed one after another. Everyone knew that if this kind of night attack was not large enough, I'm afraid that they would have to continue after dawn. Continue to fight hard.

Just as everyone watched the explosion and chaos gradually subsided, the instructor suddenly shouted, "Look." Following his fingers, everyone saw that a group of thousands of cavalry suddenly rushed out of the northwest. Their speed was very fast. In the blink of an eye, they rushed to the edge of the Russian camp in the northeast. Next, there were dense and fiery red raindrops, and explosions sounded one after another. The Russian camp suddenly became larger. The mess. sling.

The cavalry, who didn't know where it came out, was like a fiery red and hot long gun, suddenly inserted into the panicked Russia [***], and made a rude and unreasonable assault.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to the middle of the battalion, the Russian cavalry finally came out. At this time, the troops of the assault battalion also suddenly turned around and rushed to the north. Behind them, thousands of Russian cavalry chased and killed out of the camp.

Seeing that there was a large number of cavalry missing in the camp, the soldiers saw a glimmer of hope in their eyes. Although the famous Cossack cavalry did not participate in the attack except for the first head-on collision, after seeing them leave, the number of Russian troops opposite fell by one-third, and everyone was slightly relaxed. The tone.

Hu Sangui also held up his binoculars in a daze and saw a Qing army with braids on the horse chop off a Russian soldier who was trying to stop it. As the cavalry disappeared into the darkness, he swallowed.

"Qing army?"

"It should be." The instructor was also slightly stunned. He couldn't figure out why the night attack was the Qing army. Could it be that the Qing army launched a counterattack?

"It doesn't matter so much." Seeing that the Russian cavalry were attracted by the Qing army, Hu Sangui looked at the red sky in the east and took a deep breath: "Has the radio repaired?"

"No, the messenger said, it may not work."

"Forget it, order everyone to get ready." Hu Sangui threw away his telescope and said fiercely, "The previous order was to let us stick to it for a day and a night, that is to say, we must stay until noon. If the support troops can't..." After thinking about it, he said again, "Let's talk about it again!"

"Yes." -

Fereval, with a blue face, returned to the camp under the protection of several guards and immediately roared: "Tell me, what's going on? Who are those guys who sneak up on you!"

"The lieutenant general is angry. It is some Qing army cavalry. At present, Major General Andre has personally led the heroic Cossack cavalry to chase them!"

Qingjun!

It's okay not to say that Fereval's fire is even bigger, and Fengtian City has been beaten down by himself. Why do these damn guys come to join in the fun? Did they join hands with those guys opposite? Do you deliberately want to transfer the Cossack cavalry and take the opportunity to sneak up on yourself?

Thinking of this, Felevar's back was cold and immediately shouted, "Send a scout immediately. I want to know if there is another sneak attack nearby!"

"Mr. Lieutenant General, please rest assured that I have sent reconnaissance cavalry, and now the camp is well prepared. Whether it is the Qing army or those damned Pacific troops, they can no longer sneak up on us!"

Hearing these words, Feireval's face was much better, but when he saw the two hills next to the horse road in the distance, his heart burst up again. Until now, he couldn't believe that the Pacific Army had come here to snipe at his army!

In two positions, about a thousand people relied on four Maxim machine guns to stop the hero's Slavic army for half a night, causing them to lose more than 2,000 soldiers, but even so, these two mountain bags are still hanging there like sharp knives without any wear and tear!

Every time his soldiers rush up the low slope and are about to cross those tunnels, the hidden Maxim machine gun will launch a rainstorm-like barrage, which not only kills a large number of soldiers, but also makes the remaining soldiers afraid to continue to attack, and the soldiers of the Pacific Army are also different from the Qing army that is defeated at a touch, that is, He did not frown at all in the face of the intensive charge, and still killed his soldiers with one bullet at a time!

If it hadn't restricted the cavalry on the hillside, he would have sent the elite Cossack cavalry to cut off the heads of the damn Pacific Army with a knife to let them know the power of the great Slavs!

However, the crazier the other party's blocking, the more exposed the intention. They must want to block themselves here, hold themselves back, and ensure that their main force will land as soon as possible!

It takes two days to arrive at the Liaodong Peninsula from Ryukyu, and it will take a day to get here from the nearest landing point. Even if they really defeat the fleet and leave immediately, it will take at least one day and one night to get here!

Filivar's mouth flashed by with a ferocious smile. The young master of Hawaii made a wrong calculation. Did he think he could block himself with a thousand people and a few Maxim machine guns? As long as these obstacles in front of you are removed, one day and one night is enough for the Cossack cavalry to sweep the whole Liaodong Peninsula!

Thinking of this, he looked at the bright sky and looked at a major beside him: "Colope Wallov, Major Andre has led the cavalry to chase those damn whip pigs! They will come back later. I want to know if you can let me pass those two damn slopes before noon?!"

The named Colonel Valov trembled all over, his face turned blue, and his temples sweated. He knew the temper of the Lieutenant General sent from Berria, and the more he knew that the more he called you with respectful words, the more disappointed he was with you.

Walov secretly clenzyed the sweat in his hand and immediately nodded and promised, "Your Excellency, don't worry, I will definitely kill all the Pacific troops who blocked the way before noon and make sure to let the cavalry pass by!"

"That's good." Felivar stared at Valov and nodded: "I'm here waiting for your good news. Please don't let me be disappointed in you again!"

"Yes." Walov didn't dare to go out. He hurriedly ran out to arrange for the troops to attack again. Looking at the back of the departure, Filivar took out his pocket watch and looked at it and ordered loudly, "Gentlemen, the Pacific Army has declared war on the Empire!" We don't have much time. We must enter the Liaodong Peninsula before tonight. I hope you can work hard!"

"Don't let me down!" -

"How long will it take?"

Two days ago, three battalions rushed by on the same road. At this moment, a force with the same dress and equipment was also moving forward at a speed. Zhao Long walked beside the team and looked at the rising head from time to time. The guard behind him led the horse and looked at the team that could not see the head. His eyes were excited.

Next to

, Luo Feng gave orders to several battalion commanders and walked to Zhao Long's side, with an excited red tide on his face.

The Pacific Army finally landed in the Qing Dynasty! Is there anything more exciting than this for those of them who advocate in the Continental Army? Although the army has also participated in some battles in the past two years, neither the first battle of Chile nor the recent landing in Ryukyu have actually met a decent opponent.

I once hoped to touch the so-called tenacious Japanese army, but the war in Ryukyu really didn't have much appetite, mainly because I didn't expect the Pacific Army to land, the defense was lax, and the narrow islands also gave people a feeling of not being open.

Over the years, every time I saw the navy everywhere and made great achievements, one or two of the army generals were envious, especially when the fleet and the transport fleet turned around not long ago, they saw the mottled wounds on their ships and saw their smoke but bright smiles in the eyes of the army soldiers. All of them are shining with envy and jealousy.

It's finally different now!

The three northeastern provinces add up to a thousand times more than Ryukyu and Hawaii! The vast inland fleet will not be able to do it. This is undoubtedly the best place for the army to show its strength! Especially this time, the opponent is still the old power Russia, which makes everyone's hands itchy!

Turn his head to look at Luo Feng, who rubbed his hands. Zhao Long knew very well what these guys were thinking. These guys finally had a place to have fun this time, and the Pacific Army will also be on the stage of the mainland from now on!

But before that, there is another key!

That is whether the three battalions can defend the Skyscraper Mountains and prevent the Russian army from continuing to go south!

"Is there any news about the Third Battalion?"

Luo Feng shook his head: "No, maybe there is something wrong with the radio. According to the report of a reconnaissance team in the early morning, they saw that the position was still in the hands of the Third Battalion, but now..." Luo Feng looked at the raised head and quietly clenched his fist.

Zhao Long knew what he wanted to say and shook his head: "The third battalion should be fine, otherwise we would have met the Russian cavalry long ago." After saying that, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "How long will it take?"

"At the current speed, our first division can reach Motianling in up to five hours, and the fourth division that landed from Yingkou can almost arrive!"

"Five hours." Zhao Long took a deep breath. If the third battalion can hold on for these five hours, the first official land battle will start with a big victory. If it can't be defended!

"Order the former battalion to speed up and send scouts to investigate, and be careful of the Cossack cavalry."

"Remember, the Cossack cavalry are not easy to mess with. They are the real elite, and they must not rush!"
