No destruction, no establishment!
The new army could not arrive in time, and the other troops had to go up first. The Huai Army and the Green Camp had long since been corrupted. If they still had a trace of backbone, they would not have been defeated too badly. Their fate was completely in their hands.
He used these incompetent officials, generals, and soldiers who smoked opiums to exchange for a chance to purge the court and defeat the French army.
After Feng Zicai received the order, he rushed to the Southern Mountain's City without stopping. Even the weapons were escorted over by his son.
He still had a sliver of hope that he could save some people…
Unfortunately, those cowards would not give him a chance.
This scene immediately threw the French army into chaos. That small hill could not hide so many people at all. If they wanted to go up, they would have to take the water route.
However, the French clearly could not care less. The other side had already cut into their formation from the flank and separated them.
The few Black Flag soldiers on the high ground had also rushed down. These people were all injured, but they still bravely went to the front.
They finally knew how the other side had climbed up the hill.
At the same time, over a hundred Black Flag Soldiers with short knives in their mouths emerged from the water and charged towards the French army.
Most of Liu Yongfu's brothers were from Guangxi, and they were good at swimming. The pearl diggers had to be brought underwater for a long time to search for pearls. These water ghosts couldn't chisel the boat, but they could attack from behind.
"Avenge our brothers! Hit him hard! "Yellow Hand took the lead and killed a foreigner.
" Bite them and rush in. Be careful of the Western cannons.“
Zhong Huaixiu rushed down from the battlefield covered in blood. In order to imitate the French firing, he desperately let his subordinates charge into the enemy's crowd.
"Kill! Kill all the Kunlun slaves! "Huang Shouzhong had already killed four to five Algeria. The continuous blood was like a demon god, scaring those people into running away.
Order the troops to retreat immediately and attack indiscriminately in one minute!“
Snoopy had no choice but to give the order to retreat. There were too many casualties now, and the cannons were useless.
He finally understood why his army had been defeated by the Black Flag Army. These people were not only brave, but they were also full of wisdom, making use of his close combat advantage.
Sometimes, a broadsword could really defeat a rifle.
If he had the same weapon as us, I'm afraid we might really have failed this time. What a pity!“
Gu Ba, who was temporarily commanding the army, couldn't help but praise. However, he didn't know if he felt pity for his own soldiers or Liu Yongfu.
"General, what should we do? If this continues, our losses will be too great!”Liam didn't care about Gu Ba's feelings. The most important thing now was to reduce their losses.
"Colonel Snoopy is already working on it.”Gu Ba waved his hand and didn't care about these colonial troops at all.
The French army desperately ran back, and the Black Flag Army took advantage of the situation to attack. Liu Yongfu closed his eyes. He knew that his losses would be great, but he had to do this.
As expected, when most of the French army pulled away, the French army could not wait to open fire. Under the suppression of the dense firepower, the Black Flag Army suffered heavy casualties and could only retreat.
"Frenchmen, one day, I will make you pay with your blood!”Liu Yongfu watched as his companions fell one by one and held Shuang Quan tightly, his joints turning white from his grip.
He could only wake up and run faster.
This time, Liu Yongfu was supposed to retreat, but once he lost Shanxi, not only would he not be able to threaten the Black River, the entire North Qi would be cut off. This would allow the French army to attack without restraint, and the entire South Yue would be in danger.
It wasn't that he didn't want to retreat, but that he couldn't. It wasn't that he wanted to place his hopes on the unreliable Qing army, but that he had no choice at all.
The French army launched another attack after resting. This time, they sent mercenaries, whose combat effectiveness was obviously higher than the colonial army.
However, they were also repelled several times. The French army had to increase the intensity of the artillery and attack again. The two sides launched a fierce battle. Zhong Huaixiu took the lead and carried out a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the French army. The two sides occupied the river bank for more than half an hour and finally retreated because they were outnumbered.
Huang Shouzhong led more than 100 remnants of his troops to retreat. Zhong Huaixiu, who had been shot several times, still shouted to kill the enemy and bravely advanced. In the end, he fell on the river bank. Not a single one of the more than 600 people surrendered...
The French also suffered heavy losses. This time, their mercenaries suffered more than 200 casualties, while the colonial army suffered more than 500 casualties. If it were not for the support of the cannons, the losses would have been even greater. Gu Ba had no choice but to mobilize a batch of backup troops.
The French began to build their positions and were no longer in a hurry to attack. Liu Yongfu also gathered his troops in the city and waited for a new opportunity.
In the Shanxi Admiral's Manor, a few people sat together. The atmosphere was a little silent.
"Has the Qing army sent troops yet?" Liu Yongfu suddenly raised his head and asked.
"Big brother, there's no news for now. I'm afraid we still have a few days to defend!”Yang Zhu 'en's expression was somewhat solemn. He did not think that this group of people would come.
"The French have been completely held back by us. If they pincer attack the French from the back now, they will definitely retreat. I just don't know if these dogs will come.”
Huang Shouzhong was from the Taiping Army and had always had a strong opinion of the Qing army.
"Let the people in the city evacuate. Be prepared that the Qing army won't come!
" Liu Yongfu sighed. He was worried that the Qing army would be too stupid, and he was also worried about tomorrow's situation. Suddenly, his expression turned solemn as if he had made a decision…
Northern Tranquility Military Governor's Mansion
"General Li, I already know about your request. I will send someone to the country overnight to ask for instructions. After all, we have not received orders to not send troops privately.”
Zhao Youting smiled as he drank his tea, looking harmless.
Li Wenbin couldn't help but be furious. He had finally sensed Bei Ning, but he didn't expect this to be the case.
