Chapter 317 Timely Rain!

Chen Tianhua waved the silver spear in his hand with the force of his feet, and smashed the arrow away.

But Jin Chengyi's arrows were really tricky, and two of them were actually shot towards the big black horse.

Seeing that it was too late to block the two arrows below, once the war horse was hit by the arrow, the drama of the knight falling off the horse and being trampled to death was about to take place.

At the critical moment, a gray horse came up from behind, and a whip was swung from the thorn.

With two porphins, the arrow flew away.

"Young Master, be careful!"

Sun Yong arrived in time and rescued Chen Tianhua and his black horse Lao Hei at the critical moment.

It turned out that Chen Tianhua was riding alone and jumped too far forward and too fast, and there was no one around him to protect him.

Zuo Gang and Jiang Wu were both seriously injured and are receiving rescue treatment from military doctors.

Song Xiaoniu, the captain of the guard, was also injured during the pursuit.

The knights of the First Ranger Battalion under Chen Tianhua were either dead or injured, and the remaining remnants were also exhausted and unable to pursue them.

Sun Yong could see clearly. Regardless of his physical fatigue, he dashed the gray horse and ran towards Chen Tianhua alone.

Arrive in time at the critical moment.

Jin Chengyi's tiger master was well-trained. Although he was disrupted, it would be very dangerous for one person to fall into it.

At this time, Chen Tianhua didn't think so much. He only saw his bright eyes staring at Jin Chengyi who was running further and further away.

Capture the thief and capture the king, "Hurry up, chase them, don't let Jin Chengyi's Tiger Division breathe, otherwise they will organize a counterattack, which will be troublesome!"

Chen Tianhua shouted at the top of his lungs.

He was very conscious. Once these horse bandits were out of the pursuit range, they would turn their horses' heads, reorganize their formation, and immediately counterattack.

Jin Chengyi's thousand tiger troops were just defeated in all directions for a while, and the casualties would not exceed too many.

As for the New Army cavalry team, Zuo Gang's 1st Ranger Battalion has been disabled. Currently, only Sun Yong's Assault Battalion is fully staffed. However, they started marching at dawn and immediately went into battle when they arrived at Yingzui Mountain. Several of them

Even after fighting at a young age, I was so tired that I almost collapsed, and even my horse could no longer run.

Seeing the enemy running further and further away, Chen Tianhua felt very anxious, knowing that this would be very dangerous.

However, it is necessary to give the tired troops a certain amount of rest, so that the wounded can be bandaged, and the horses can eat and drink. Only in this way can the troops regain a certain combat strength.

"Rest in place and build fortifications to prevent the horse bandits from counterattack." Chen Tianhua ordered not to pursue.

If you can't catch up, you might as well rest where you are and regain some strength for defense.

"Understood." Sun Yong and others responded.

While they ordered the people to dismount and rest, eat, feed, and drink water, they also built piles of rocks and wood to prepare for the attack with rifles.

As expected, without any pursuers, Jin Chengyi slowly gathered the scattered troops and reorganized them into formation.

More than an hour later, Jin Chengyi's men began to counterattack.

The defeated Tiger Division actually suffered no more than 30% damage. It still had more than 600 people on horseback when it was gathered up, and behind them, there was Military Master Liang and his 500-man general reserve.

This new force also carries several rapid-fire cannons.

In this case, the total strength of the Tiger Division is more than a thousand men, but Chen Tianhua's place, in addition to Sun Yong's assault battalion and the remnants of the first ranger battalion, only has a total of 600 men capable of fighting.

The battlefield situation has become confusing again, and a fierce battle will definitely follow.

The Tiger Division was not a Muslim bandit. They used the trees for cover in the forest, mounted their horses and attacked slowly with guns, without exposing their bodies as targets.

On Chen Tianhua's side, he lay down behind fortifications or big trees and fired to resist.

"Bang bang..."

"Bang bang bang..."

"..."

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of gunfire in the forest, fallen leaves were flying on the treetops, and the birds and beasts in the forest had long been frightened and fled away.

Seeing that the enemy was getting closer and closer, what followed was another brutal hand-to-hand battle.

Suddenly, a scout captain came galloping over to report, "The Commander-in-Chief, Deputy Commandant Li Xinghong, led by the Second Ranger Battalion, has arrived outside the field, and they are preparing to attack the enemy's right wing."

Li Xinghong finally arrived, just in time! Chen Tianhua, Sun Yong and other officers jumped for joy.

The 2nd Ranger Battalion is a reinforced battalion. In addition to four infantry and cavalry companies, there is also a machine gun company, with a total strength of about 600 cavalrymen.

These people are veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles and have strong combat effectiveness. They are the main force of this winter offensive.

Before Chen Tianhua could issue the order, Chen Er was heard shouting loudly from the side, "Young Master, look, on the right side...the Panlong Army Flag..."

Following Chen Er's gesture, he looked to the right and saw a large banner with a coiled dragon appearing in the distance, as well as hundreds of cavalry advancing quietly.

"Shh...boom..."

"Shush...boom..."

"Da da da..."

"..."

Li Xinghong, who was ready, had already begun to attack the enemy's right wing, and his cannon battery was the first to open fire.

With his eyes only fixed on the front, wails and screams could be heard from the defenseless Tiger Division camp.

The bullets from the Maxim machine gun came in a fan-shaped pattern, and the soldiers of the Tiger Division fell one after another like wheat in a field.

Wherever the cannonball landed, flesh and blood flew everywhere, broken limbs wrapped in white snow and black soil were thrown into the air, while war horses roared and kicked wildly.

This sudden attack confused Jin Chengyi, who was organizing the attack. Before he could react, several artillery shells roared down on his Chinese army camp.

"Rumble..."

"..."

When he was pulled out of the ruins by several guards with his face stained with blood, he immediately issued an order to disperse and retreat, "Order the troops to disperse and retreat to both sides and quickly return to the military camp..."

The flag-bearers immediately waved new instructions, and the commander-in-chief's messengers also conveyed orders everywhere.

The scene was in chaos. A minute ago they were organizing a counterattack, but now they are immediately in retreat. This is not easy.

Seeing this situation, Chen Tianhua suddenly felt energetic and understood that it was time for his new army to attack.

"Brothers, our reinforcements are here. Hurry up and follow me to chase the bandits. I will reward you based on your merits after the war."

He naturally understood that at this time, he must speed up his cavalry to a sprint state and cripple the enemy cavalry in one go.

"Go ahead..."

I saw Chen Tianhua taking the lead, holding his iron gun high, clamping the horse's belly, and then charged forward.

Behind them, Sun Yong, Chen Er, Shi Jin and other hundreds of riders also rode up to follow.

Li Xinghong's troops on the right also stopped shelling and machine gun fire, and hundreds of cavalry who were hiding and sneaking also launched a charge.

At this time, the entire battlefield has become extremely chaotic, with knights galloping everywhere.

The only one that can maintain a certain size and formation is the new army.

At this time, the soldiers of the Tiger Division were like a group of headless flies, habitually scurrying around, distracted or fighting independently.

The cavalry was in disarray and was even worse than the infantry because it was impossible for him to turn around and meet the enemy.

Most of the cavalry didn't even dare to stop.
