No wonder Hun Sen has a look of disbelief. More than 10000 people can defeat more than 50000 people, but what should we do next? The battlefield is too close to suon city. Once there is any disease, the mercenary himself will be the first to suffer. The other party won't know this truth. Why do they dare to chase and fight? Don't they die?
If these deserters say that mercenaries are only chasing them on a small scale, he may believe it. It can be said that it is the pursuit of the whole army, which makes no sense in theory. That is, it is elite, and we should know the importance of cleaning the battlefield. In this way, the words of these deserters are not credible.
"Let's say they are deserters in front. They are all afraid of death. Pull them out and kill them all." Hun Sen waved to the deputy general around him. The situation ahead is unknown. It's hard to say whether he was really defeated, but what he has to do now is to stabilize his military morale. Otherwise, if his morale is insufficient, how can he fight the next battle?
These 100 deserters now regret that they did not die or surrender under the fierce attack of mercenaries, but they never thought that they would eventually die in their own hands. If they knew so, it would be better to surrender to mercenaries.
"General, what shall we do next? Will we continue to move forward?" several generals on the side asked without ideas.
"It's already dark. The army should have a good rest for one night. Send more scouts to let them find out what's going on ahead. Also, let's all sleep with one eye open tonight." Hun Sen ordered after thinking about it.
After knowing the other party's cavalry, the army made a lot of horse pits and horse rejection stakes outside the tent in order to prevent being attacked secretly at night. Even in the dark, many people wait with bows and arrows, waiting for mercenaries to appear, and then kill one of them unexpectedly.
Just one night passed safely without any danger. One morning, the scouts in front sent back the news with carrier pigeons in the army, saying that they had almost arrived in suweng city and did not find any bodies left by the war. As for where the 50000 troops are, they are still searching, and there is no news yet.
"Ha ha." looking at the news from the scouts, Hun Sen laughed, "I said that the 50000 troops in front of us would be fine. Otherwise, how could we clean the battlefield so quickly after such a war. Hum! It was cheap for those greedy deserters to kill me by mistake. Now I order the whole army to rush to Suong city after breakfast."
"General, are we waiting to get in touch with the army there? We're moving forward?" a deputy general asked out of caution. It's understandable for a deserter to say that, but more than 100 deserters say the same, which can't help but be suspicious.
"It doesn't matter. They must have taken advantage of the terrain to hide. As soon as our main force arrives, they will come out. At that time, it's time for us to fight back with all our strength. Well, inform the army to prepare to start." Hun Sen said with confidence on his face. It's right to be cautious in fighting, but if you are too cautious, you will be timid and the gains will outweigh the losses.
After a night's rest, the 50000 elite troops in Phnom Penh set off again and headed for suweng city hundreds of miles away. Their move was discovered by the Scout of the first division of the world cavalry hidden in the dark, and quickly returned to the division commander Tian Hu, who was hiding in a nearby depression.
Hearing that 50000 elite of Phnom Penh Dynasty had not been attacked overnight, Tian Hu smiled, "it seems that some people think the same as us. They also gave up the plan of night attack."
"Yes, the cold front is the cold front. They are afraid to see that the 50000 enemy is the elite force of the Phnom Penh Dynasty. With preparation, it is not difficult to sneak an attack, and they may also be trapped by the other party." Liu duo, the second leader, nodded his head and showed a sense of concept on his face.
"Yes, that's right. If everyone chooses the same thing, the next attack should begin. Brothers, we are the first division of the world cavalry ordered by the sixth young master. In any case, we can't lose to others. We've been doing well before. Now it depends on who can win the head of Hun Sen. do you have confidence?" Tian Hu got up. He knew that the war was about to start. Before the war, he needed to boost his morale.
On the other side of the road, Lengfeng fourth division was also ready to attack. After a night of fear, the Phnom Penh army still chose to move forward, which can only show that they were not sure that the 50000 army under suweng city had been destroyed, otherwise they would turn around and withdraw.
"Comrades in arms, the enemy is on the main road. At this time, they don't know our existence. This is our opportunity. If my guess is correct, the first division of the cavalry must be staring at this place, and they may start at any time. Then our fourth division will shoot the first shot. OK, all regiments and battalions will focus on your classes later Machine guns should concentrate their firepower. Once the war starts, they will rush down like broken bamboo. The target is the center of the enemy. As long as the enemy's main general is captured alive or killed, the enemy will be in chaos. Next is the moment when we win. "
Division commander Ling Daqiang summoned all the commanders and battalion commanders of the fourth division and gave orders to prepare for World War I. after the meeting, the officers returned to the troops to prepare. Half an hour later, when the 50000 elite Phnom Penh army brought by Hun Sen entered the preset ambush circle, the loud bugle sounded, and then countless cold fronts dressed in military green uniforms suddenly appeared on the earth Soldiers, spearheaded by machine gunners, formed attack forces and rushed to the enemy advancing towards suon city.
The sound of bugles was loud, followed by continuous gunfire. One by one, the soldiers in Phnom Penh and Dabian fell to the ground like crops blown down by the wind.
"What's the matter?" Hong Sen, who was riding on a tall horse in the middle of the Chinese army, shouted. If you look carefully, you can see that panic has flashed through his eyes.
"Report to the general, we have met the main mercenaries on our left side. They are all armed with fire and guns, and our brothers can't stand it." a scouting young general is coming to Hun Sen to report the war ahead.
"The main force of mercenaries? How many people can there be? We have a full 50000 people. Tell the brothers, don't be afraid. Just rush forward. I don't believe how many people their guns can kill us." Hun Sen said with confidence when he thought he was carrying 50000 troops. It seems that he is afraid that his brothers will not do their best. He added, "tell you that those who kill the enemy with guns will be rewarded with ten liang of silver. There is no upper limit."
"Yes." under such a heavy reward, the scouting young general also had the confidence. After agreeing, he turned to pass the order. When he gave this order, the first division of the world cavalry appeared on the other side of the road.
The cavalry were like a roaring train. As soon as they appeared, they came unstoppable and rushed into the army in Phnom Penh. Sabers were flying, harvesting one head after another and solving one life after another.
They are like the last straw to overwhelm the camel. Once they appear, they fight the Phnom Penh army without fighting back. What's more terrible is that one of the troops is inserting into the middle army. Where we go, there is no one to stop and no one to fight.
With it is the first regiment of Lengfeng fourth division on the other side. Gao Xiang, the head of the team, personally carried a class machine gun and kept running forward with his legs open. All those who were aimed at by the muzzle of the gun were hit through their bodies by rotating bullets and fell on their backs.
Gao Xiang's speed was very fast. In addition, the charging time was earlier than the first Cavalry Division in the world. He was closer to the central army in Phnom Penh. At this point, the question is not whether we can defeat the enemy, but who can win the first merit.
Originally, in the place of the Chinese army, Hun Sen deliberately left 5000 elite in order to prevent the other party from attacking him. In his opinion, with these soldiers to protect himself, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he can't kill himself so quickly. As long as the Chinese army is OK, he can command the front and rear armies to encircle the mercenaries and win the victory of the war.
It never occurred to me that mercenaries did come straight to the Chinese army, but their speed and impact were so fast that 5000 soldiers under him were in chaos as soon as they met the enemy, and then cowards and deserters appeared in front of strong combat effectiveness.
"Don't be afraid. Hold on. The front and rear troops will come to save us soon. That's when we will fight back." Hun Sen shouted loudly on his horse to boost the morale of the army.
When he shouted and looked back and forth, his face suddenly turned terrible white. The former army is in chaos and running around; The rear army had simply separated from the Chinese army. At this moment, countless soldiers had turned and ran back. They didn't even have the courage to face the enemy, so they directly became deserters.
In fact, whether it is the fire gun of the fourth Lengfeng division or the saber in the hands of the first Cavalry Division in the world, it is far from being countered by ordinary troops. Even though this is the 50000 elite of Phnom Penh Dynasty, the morale of the army has long been lax when bad news comes from the front. Now in the face of strong attack, who can afford to fight?
Not to mention that neither bullets nor sharp sabers can defeat them. What else can they do if they don't escape at this moment.
