After hearing this, Gan Hong agreed to Feng Zicai's plan and sent two brigades of soldiers to hide across the river.
We will give the French army a big surprise later.
Maxim did not board the boat, he was preparing to cross the river with the last boat.
The second batch of 20,000 soldiers had just traveled halfway.
Feng Zicai gave the order decisively.
"Fire."
The shells kept hitting the riverside and the river.
Countless Nguyen and French troops died without warning.
Many others were shot to death by soldiers.
Heavy machine guns are like bullets that cost nothing. They keep firing and reaping heads.
The French and Nguyen troops fell in pieces.
Maxim immediately asked people to avoid them, but there was no place for them to hide here.
It was a port, and soldiers were lining up to cross the river.
Maxim's heart bleeds as he sees a large number of French soldiers dying.
"Asshole, I'm going to kill you, bastard."
"Let me attack the opposite mountain and fire the cannon."
"Your Excellency, Colonel, all our cannons have been transported to the other side of the river. We have no cannons anymore."
"Trash, give me a gun to attack and wipe out all the Tenglong Army."
"Boom boom boom boom..."
"Boom boom boom..."
Maxim was blown to the ground.
"what happened."
"Commander, there is a bomb at our feet..."
It turns out that the Tenglong Army hid many bombs under the port across the river.
They also left one person to detonate the bomb.
This man had been hiding in a pit dug far away.
As soon as the order is given, the bomb will be detonated.
These bombs are not landmines and must be detonated manually.
After the man detonated the bomb, he continued to hide in his cellar without anyone noticing.
Maxim and the others still had 20,000 troops here, but they suffered heavy losses due to the ambush by the Tenglong Army.
Especially when bombs exploded in this area just now, killing more than 10,000 people.
There were thousands of people left, all injured.
It was the same on the other side of the river. Bombs were also detonated. Most of the thousands of people who passed by at first were killed or injured by the explosion of the bombs.
The Ruan army and the French army here were also unprepared. They suffered heavy losses for a while and almost the entire army was wiped out.
The ambushing Tenglong Army had no intention of letting them go.
Machine gun and rifle fire continued.
The armies of both countries were completely wiped out before they could surrender.
The Tenglong Army was still bombing ships in the middle of the river.
There were also 20,000 soldiers on board.
The 20,000 people were passively beaten, and the Tenglong Army fired one shot at a time.
As long as the boat is hit, the soldiers on the boat will fall into the river and be washed away by the river. It is basically impossible to survive in such a fast river.
Hundreds of ships have all become living targets for the Tenglong Army's bombing.
The most important thing is that the person at the helm of the boat doesn't know which way to row now.
There were enemy ambushes on both sides, especially those on the other side who were basically wiped out.
Most boats have the option to row back.
Only here are some soldiers continuing to fight against the Tenglong Army.
The Nguyen and French soldiers on Maxim's side were panicked. Faced with the sudden and violent attack, they were unable to organize an effective counterattack.
Artillery shells exploded one after another in the ranks, the roar of cannons was deafening, and the sound of heavy machine gun fire was endless.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere, and screams came and went.
Although the Nguyen army and the French army fought hard, they were in a desperate situation due to their inferior equipment and a surprise attack.
Maxim watched the soldiers fall one by one, his heart filled with helplessness and despair.
There were fewer and fewer boats in the river, indicating that at least half of the soldiers had sunk into the river and fed the fish.
In the end, more than 5,000 people were able to go ashore and join them.
Many soldiers continued to be bombarded and destroyed by Tenglong Army artillery when they reached the shore.
Maxim took the remaining 10,000 people and prepared to flee back to Hanoi.
How could Feng Zicai let them go? The shells were still hitting them.
The Tenglong Army launched a charge.
The two armies were getting closer and closer, under cover of fire.
The French army and the Nguyen army continued to suffer heavy casualties.
After all, Maxim led the elite French army.
They also retreated while covering.
When Feng Zicai was in the Qing Dynasty, he always dreamed of leading troops to attack the Ruan army and the French army.
Now that the dream has finally come true, how could it be possible to let the French army go?
They continued to pursue him.
The French army and the Ruan army ran away, with fewer and fewer people, and they were still chasing after them.
Half an hour later, there were only a few hundred people left in Maxim.
He was still being pursued by the Tenglong Army.
They no longer had the strength to continue running away.
Soon Feng Zicai and his people surrounded him.
Maxim opened his mouth, as if ready to say something.
Feng Zicai didn't want to pay attention to him.
Then he drew his sword.
Everyone above the commander of the Tenglong Legion wears a sword.
Li Jingxiao had Li Jingxiao make their pendants made of fine iron, and they were extremely sharp.
He waved to Maxim.
Maxim originally planned to surrender, but when he saw the old man opposite him, he wanted to fight him in a military way at such an old age.
They clearly had the advantage, yet they still wanted to fight him.
Wouldn't it be unmanly if he didn't fight?
Feng Zicai was wearing a dark green deputy commander's uniform, and his body was covered with dust and blood from the battlefield.
He took off his clothes and threw them to his guards.
Guard Feng Zicai wanted to fight for him. Feng Zicai finally found such an opportunity to fight. How could he let the guard fight for him?
"I finally have this opportunity. Why are you here to join in the fun? Just watch from the side and I'll tell you a few tricks."
"Yes, deputy commander."
The guards retreated, but were ready to support Feng Zicai.
Feng Zicai's eyes were firm and sharp, like a cheetah staring at its prey.
Holding his sword tightly, the sword shone coldly in the sun.
Maxim was wearing the uniform of a French colonel. His face was covered in blood and dirt. He had just been injured by a bomb. Only a pair of deep eyes could be seen clearly.
He held a French long sword in his hand, with a straight blade and a sharp tip.
His steps were steady, as if he was calculating the distance and rhythm with each step.
The two took a deep breath.
Feng Zicai was not worried at all and had a smile on his face.
He blew on his beard.
"French guy, fuck your grandma!"
Suddenly, Feng Zicai launched an attack. The sword in his hand drew a sharp sword flower, and then it went straight to Maxim's throat.
Maxim ducked sideways and stabbed Feng Zicai straight in the chest with his backhand sword.
"You old bastard, go to hell."
Feng Zicai reacted quickly and rolled to avoid the sword.
The figures of the two people intertwined in the air, and the sword light and sword shadow intertwined in the air.
Their movements are lightning fast and dazzling.
Every attack was full of power and skill, and every defense showed tenacity and intelligence.
The battle lasted for a long time, and Maxim's physical strength began to decline.
But Feng Zicai didn't look at his old age, "Lian Po is old, can he still make a living?"
As expected of a famous old general, he is still strong in his youth.
His eyes were still firm and the weapons in his hands were still sharp.
Deputy Commander Feng continued the attack.
Maxim could only dodge desperately, and was injured in several places on his body.
Feng Zicai's advantages are getting bigger and bigger.
The morale of the Tenglong Army was high and they kept cheering Feng Zicai on.
"Come on, deputy commander, come on, deputy commander, come on, deputy commander."
Maxim really didn't expect that the old general in front of him would be so perverted.
