"Accelerate, accelerate, accelerate the rapid march... The sooner we arrive, the better. We must reach Zhuozhou Camp before Isiha's army arrives!"
"It's his grandma's fault. No matter what, I have to take the lead in the first battle when I come over here!"
Ronglu was already anxious. The intelligence from all over the front was gathered, and the entire Zhili land was stirred up. The eye of the storm was the Zhuozhou camp.
Na Duobao infiltrated into the north of Zhuozhou early, joined forces with the direct descendants of the princes and nobles who had come to the capital, and began to desperately harass Guaizima and the new Yulin army.
Na Duobao no longer cares about life and death, and is fighting for all his money, just to buy time for the army in the south!
Ronglu was in charge of marching on the eastern front, while the Isiha army on the western front marched quickly along the edge of the Taihang Mountains. Although the mountain road was not easy to walk, there were fewer obstacles from the enemy.
Yisiha's troops were not as large as Ronglu's because the Baihegou area of Ronglu was located in the plains and could be supplemented by reinforcements from Emperor Guangxu at any time.
With more troops, the speed has slowed down. When Tan Ma came to report, Isiha's vanguards were already at war with the sentinels from Zhuozhou Camp!
Not only that, but Emperor Guangxu's main camp in Dingxing also started to slowly move north. Even Yi Xin couldn't wait to break camp in the middle of the night, which shows the desire of the three armies for this victory.
"Damn it, the first battle must be mine, the first win must be mine... People in this world only know the number one, who the hell would know the number two?"
"This is the first large-scale decisive battle since the flag was raised. Our unit must be the first to enter the battle and take the first credit for this first battle!"
"The whole army is marching urgently... The losers who can't run get out of the main road and form a reserve team... All the young and strong people are working hard for me, let's run!"
At this moment, Ronglu had no idea how many people there were in the army. It was originally a rebel battle, and the victims were all gathered together. They were marching late at night and were being replenished at any time. There was no need to forget this bad debt.
Ronglu only had Zhuozhou Camp in his eyes and nothing else!
At the critical moment, it still depends on the effectiveness of one's own servants. Rongbao and Ronggui, who have children in the family, are Ronglu's right-hand men. At this moment, they also risked their lives and led the vanguard troops to charge forward on war horses.
The two of them even issued an inhumane order to kill the team. Any soldier running at the end of the team would be randomly selected and killed on the spot.
There is no reason or humanity. At this moment, they are relying on killing people to maintain the morale of the army!
There were screams in the darkness. Driven by fear, people kept running forward. Fatigue made people lose the ability to think, and their brains could not move.
All the physical strength was poured into the two legs. In fact, there were still opportunities to escape during this rapid march, and a small number of victims did escape secretly.
But most people have fallen into the herd effect, and they have forgotten about escaping!
In fact, this is the psychology figured out by the ancients, which is to use fatigue and fear to bind people's hearts. This is an invisible rope that binds these people who are usually unwilling to use their brains and are not clever.
I didn't dare to resist because I was afraid, because the high-intensity physical exertion deprived the brain of nutrients, and in addition, they were a group of uneducated people on weekdays.
I don’t like to use my brain in the first place, and now I don’t know how to think in this special environment!
Everyone is like a flock of sheep, running wildly under the leadership of the leader. Many of them don't even know where they are going or what they are going to do.
Bang bang bang... gunshots suddenly rang out, and Rongbao's troops were in panic.
"I found the cavalry from Zhuozhou Camp... They want us to attack!"
"Shoot... kill them. The Zhuozhou camp is definitely not far away. We must win!"
After a hard night's forced march, the light finally came to light, and they were able to encounter the Kaizi Ma patrolling the Zhuozhou camp. This meant that the army had entered the edge of the battlefield and the action was about to begin.
The people patrolling outside the Zhuozhou camp at night were all Hu'er's kidnapper horses. These people were the most elite old hunters. When encountering an enemy attack, they would first fire warning shots. After discovering the sound of the gunfire, thousands of people were attracted. The cavalry in front Hundreds of them all rushed over.
Knowing that the enemy was strong, he did not dare to turn around and run away, relying on his superb equestrian skills to avoid the rain of bullets behind him.
But there were too many of these rebels. Hundreds of cavalrymen fired without aiming and there was a hail of bullets. There were always a few cavalrymen who were shot in the back and fell off their horses.
During the chase in the dark night, many cavalrymen tripped and fell and broke their bones and tendons. More infantrymen were tripped and fell one by one, but no one dared to stop. At this moment, people could already see the faint light in the distance.
"Zhuozhou Camp... King Dun's 30,000 troops are indeed stationed outside the city... Haha, brothers! My guess is not wrong at all. King Dun really wants to fight with us..."
"You can't take advantage of his wishes...the army spreads out and attacks immediately without any rest..."
Ronglu stood on a high slope, looking at the lights of the camp in the distance. He looked at his pocket watch and it was only half past eleven. He was actually half an hour ahead of schedule.
Rong Gui rushed over on his horse, panting, "Master! There are too many laggards in the army. Do we need to rest for a quarter of an hour and gather the people before fighting?"
"The size of the army in the darkness right now is only twenty to thirty thousand, which may not be enough..."
"No!" Rong Lu yelled, "You must not let go of your momentum in one go. Have you ever fought in a war? When the chaos came back, the soldiers who fought in Baili went crazy with exhaustion..."
"At that time, I could only order to rest, and I would never get up again! Whoever rested at this time would be dead... While they are still in this mood, rush forward and attack!"
"Have you forgotten Marshal Zuo's Western Expeditionary Army? Once it's daytime and the cannons and heavy machine guns fire, we have no chance of winning!"
"No matter how many people you have, you can't win! You have to fight at night and mess up the entire battlefield! Kill them..."
"Hey! Master, please look at it... the whole army presses forward and charges..."
"Brothers, the Zhuozhou camp is full of gold and silver treasures, beautiful women, delicious wine and meat to enjoy... rush in and enjoy the blessings!"
"Kill...kill..." tens of thousands of people shouted slogans hysterically and ran straight to the Zhuozhou camp!
When a person is exhausted to the point of exhaustion, such as at the end of a marathon, after a person breaks through that limit point, he actually doesn’t feel tired at all!
It was a kind of ethereal feeling and even a little comfortable!
No fear, no fatigue, no thinking... people just look at the people around them and I do whatever they do!
You shout to kill, I shout to kill, you shoot and I shoot, and you rush forward and I rush forward with you... The world has become illusory in people's eyes.
"What are the lights in front of you... This is the Zhuozhou Camp that the adults... are talking about... What's the use of it? What am I doing here again?"
In a daze, this ordinary farmer from Nanzhili suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and then his consciousness flew directly into the sky.
His body fell to the ground, and countless figures stepped on his body. Only then did he know that he was dead.
In the sky, along the perimeter of the Zhuozhou camp, the flames of rifle shots formed a line of gunfire. Every time a shot was fired, a piece of the villagers fell to the ground.
"Is this... the end..." The last bit of consciousness fell into nothingness.
