Philadelphia is located within the British defense line, with four fortresses scattered in an orderly manner, forming an impregnable barrier.
However, Qin Changfeng and the Longyan Cavalry under his command were not afraid of the dangers, broke through the enemy's formation, and took the lead in attacking the southern fortress. The flames of war ignited instantly, and the British soldiers in the southern fortress rose up to resist.
The sky was covered with bullets and the sound of artillery fire was endless.
With their superior strength, the British soldiers did not take it lightly. Their expressions were still tense, and they kept firing with their muskets, hoping to block Qin Changfeng's attack with the help of numerous figures.
They set up a dragnet here just waiting for the enemy to fall into their siege!
However, the Long Yan Army's battle was more courageous than he imagined!
Although it was the British Army that was attacked, it relied on more troops and advance arrangements.
The Long Yan Army's attack did not make effective progress.
However, General Qin Changfeng was not discouraged. This battle was just to contain the enemy, not a decisive battle.
Attacking cities and demolishing strongholds is not an advantage of cavalry.
Facing the strong southern fortress, what Qin Changfeng had to do was to obtain the greatest results in the shortest time.
Although the fortress was not damaged at all, the enemy's advance preparations were calculated and many defenses were destroyed, which was also a big gain for them.
"Withdraw the troops!" Qin Changfeng gave the order, and the Long Yan Cavalry was about to leave.
But the British army had no intention of letting them leave.
What they are doing is preparing for annihilation, not defense! The British army quickly moved out, attacking from all directions.
The British army, relying on their large numbers, immediately surrounded Qin Changfeng's troops.
Qin Changfeng frowned and felt troubled. The two armies clashed, and the British troops formed teams of three, encroaching on the battlefield bit by bit.
The area available for Long Yan's army to operate is constantly decreasing. At this time, the biggest drawback of the Dragon Flame Cavalry was exposed.
Since all weapons were changed to muskets, cavalry charges cannot be as deterrent as before!
This means that charging and breaking through is difficult to achieve! In the past, cavalry used daggers, knives or spears. Once the cavalry got close, just one blow would kill the enemy!
But muskets are not good. Although muskets are powerful, they are difficult to attack on horses. They can only rely on quick action and roaming.
Utilize the mobility of war horses and the long range of muskets to achieve mobile combat. At this moment, Qin Changfeng, who was surrounded, was helpless.
But at this time, he saw the British army on the north side. Because there was a jungle entrance there, there were not many soldiers stationed there.
"There is a gap in the north, break out!" The Longyan cavalry charged towards the north. The British troops did not stop them and allowed Qin Changfeng to break through.
The trap they set there is just waiting for Long Yanjun to jump into it! At this time, Qin Changfeng also noticed something was wrong.
Just when he was about to break through, he saw light reflected on the ground, and an extremely long and slender iron rope was lying in ambush below!
Qin Changfeng pulled the horse's head hard, and the war horse neighed in the sky like a human being.
He abruptly stopped his horse from advancing, turned around and shouted: "There is a trap!" The strong military discipline of the Long Yan Army was demonstrated by the prohibition.
Their assault force reacted instantly. Their troops separated on both sides and attacked the British troops inside.
At this time, the artillery dragged by Long Yanjun's war horses also came in handy. The artillery on both sides fired simultaneously, and the British troops hidden on both sides were forced to bear the artillery fire.
The brutality was unprecedented. Hundreds of people who had been ambushed were already dead before they could react.
The ambush devices set up on both sides were also destroyed.
But at this moment, the rest of the British army had already surrounded them.
When Qin Changfeng saw this, he was secretly delighted. These British soldiers who besieged them were several times the number that besieged them before, and they were the main force of the enemy's army! Containing them is enough to buy enough time for General Vinod's actions!
They fought and retreated, and there was no obstacle to their retreat.
The Long Yan Army that had cleared the obstacles gained a huge advantage at this moment, and their advantage of fast movement was also displayed.
The British troops, who had no way to encircle and suppress the Longyan Army, could not pose any danger to the Longyan Army at all.
Although the Long Yan Army led by Qin Changfeng only had 4,000 cavalry, the British army of more than 10,000 people was helpless against him!
…
"General Qin has bought us time, now is the best time for us to attack!"
At the same time, Vino observed through the telescope on the distant hills that the British army was engaged in a bitter battle on the battlefield!
Their infantry, cavalry and other arms were unable to effectively block Long Yan's army.
Now is the best time for them to attack!
Vino turned around and shouted boldly: "This is our America's war!"
"We can't just let our supporters contribute, it's time to let them see how powerful we are!"
"Ho! Roar! Roar!"
The army of three thousand men burst out with a momentum of swallowing up the sky and the earth. Vino was ecstatic, turned around and waved his hand: "Attack!"
"kill!"
Vino's target is also the southern fortress, and now all the troops in the fortress have been attracted.
And he was beaten around by the Dragon Flame Cavalry!
Now the southern fortress can be said to be empty of troops, and now will be the best time to attack.
Qin Changfeng's military action was just to find out the reality and find out the real strength of the southern fortress.
And contain them.
Vino's mission is to take the initiative to launch an attack and strive to inflict heavy damage on the troops in the southern fortress in the shortest possible time!
Then take advantage of this opportunity to complete the strategic shift and attack other fortresses.
The four fortresses in Britain all echo each other from a distance. If there is such a large-scale battle in the southern fortress, they will not believe it if the troops from other fortresses do not support it.
What Wei Nuo and Qin Changfeng wanted was for other British troops to come to support first, so that they would have a short opportunity to attack other fortresses with troops.
So far, it seems that no matter which step it takes, it is within their expectations.
As long as other fortresses mobilize their troops, they will have enough opportunities!
When Vino's troops appeared in the southern fortress, Vino changed his previous combat style and directly launched a fierce attack on the enemy!
They used ten cars donated by Dexter to carry heavy artillery!
This is their family fortune. In many previous battles, Vino was reluctant to use these artillery pieces.
The power of these artillery is huge, and they only have fifty rounds of artillery shells now!
There is no way to manufacture these weapons and ammunition.
Any cannonball is extremely precious!
But at this moment, Vino, as if he had drunk chicken blood, ordered the artillery to attack continuously!
