Chapter 387 Battle of Yangcheng

Although there were dozens of large and small caliber artillery support, continuous volleys of gunfire, and close combat weapons such as grenades for cover, and there were white-pole soldiers holding long spears and barricades at the front, causing Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry to suffer heavy losses, the Guanning Iron Cavalry was indeed very fierce. Regardless of casualties, they frantically attacked the positions of the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army.

It was precisely because of the fierceness of the Guanning Iron Cavalry that the soldiers of the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army and the white-pole soldiers at the forefront paid a considerable price in casualties.

The Independent First Division of the National Defense Army suffered more than 300 casualties, and the white-pole soldiers suffered nearly 1,000 casualties. However, although the Guanning Iron Cavalry was fierce, their flesh and blood bodies were very fragile in the face of gunfire and rain of bullets, and there were more than 10,000 cavalrymen who fell in a pool of blood.

The corpses of people and horses with different causes of death filled the entire grassland, and the grassland was dyed red with blood.

"Retreat." Wu Sangui gritted his teeth and ordered. The tenacity of the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army and the sharpness of the firearms, no, it was brutality, caused him heavy losses. Not to mention the pain in his flesh, even his liver hurt.

Ten thousand elite Guanning Iron Cavalry.

Qin Liangyu, Hong Niangzi, Gao Jie, and Sun Chuanting all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Wu Sangui leading the army to slowly retreat.

The ferocity of the Guanning Iron Cavalry surprised them a lot. Fortunately, the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army withstood the crazy attack of the Guanning Iron Cavalry. As for the pursuit, don't think too much for the time being.

The speed of the warhorse charging at full speed was very fast, and it rushed to the front almost in an instant. If it weren't for the bravery and tenacity of the white-pole soldiers at the front, if it weren't for the sharpness of the muskets, and the powerful lethality of grenades and artillery, I'm afraid they might not be able to withstand the crazy attack of the Guanning Iron Cavalry.

If Wu Sangui killed a surprise attack and turned defeat into victory, it would be a lot of fun.

Sun Chuanting felt the most profound, and he was puzzled. The three armies of Shaanxi, Huguang, and Baoding under his command also had thousands of musketeers and a large number of artillery, but why was their combat power so poor? Why was it so different from the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army led by Hong Niangzi?

Sun Chuanting did want to lead the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army, the Royal Third Division, and the White-Pole Army to fight Wu Sangui again, but Gu Junming took out the imperial edict, so he had to give up this idea and escort Zuo Liangyu back to Beijing to meet the emperor.

Although there were dozens of large and small caliber artillery support, continuous volleys, and close combat weapons and grenades for cover, and there were white-pole soldiers holding long spears and barricades at the front, causing Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry to suffer heavy losses, but the Guanning Iron Cavalry was indeed very fierce, regardless of casualties, and frantically attacked the positions of the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army.

However, although the Guanning Iron Cavalry was fierce, its flesh and blood bodies were very fragile in the face of gunfire and rain of bullets, and there were more than 10,000 cavalrymen lying in a pool of blood.

The corpses of people and horses with different causes of death filled the entire grassland, and the grassland was dyed red with blood.

"Retreat." Wu Sangui gritted his teeth and ordered. The tenacity of the Independent First Division of the National Defense Army, the sharpness of firearms, no, it was cruelty, caused him heavy losses, not to mention the pain in his flesh, even his liver hurt.

Ten thousand elite Guanning Iron Cavalry.

Qin Liangyu, Hong Niangzi, Gao Jie, and Sun Chuanting all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Wu Sangui leading the army to retreat slowly.

The ferocity of the Guanning Iron Cavalry surprised them. Fortunately, the First Independent Division of the National Defense Army withstood the crazy attack of the Guanning Iron Cavalry. As for the pursuit, don't think too much for the time being.

If Wu Sangui killed a surprise attack and turned defeat into victory, it would be a lot of fun.

Sun Chuanting felt the most deeply, and he was puzzled. The three armies of Shaanxi, Huguang, and Baoding under his command also formed thousands of musket soldiers and a large number of artillery, but why was their combat effectiveness so poor? And the difference between the First Independent Division of the National Defense Army led by Hong Niangzi was so big?

Sun Chuanting did have the idea of ​​commanding the 1st Independent Division of the National Defense Army, the 3rd Royal Division and the White Rod Army to fight a decisive battle with Wu Sangui. However, when Gu Junming took out the imperial edict, he had to give up this idea and obediently escorted Zuo Liangyu back to Beijing to meet the emperor.
