The situation at the Saihantala camp is very bad.
Meanwhile, the situation was equally dire for the grassland bandits and cavalry on the outskirts of Saihantala.
Even after breaking out of Saihantala, the steppe bandit cavalry still couldn't gain much of an advantage against the attacks of the 5th and 6th Cavalry Divisions.
The situation collapsed instantly!
From the outside in!
When the news reached Karhana Beile's ears, he instantly realized that the situation was dire.
The situation is even more dire for the cavalry on the outer perimeter.
If we wait until the outer cavalry are completely wiped out, they will probably all die here.
Thinking of this, Khalhanabele took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "We can't waste any more time here!"
Um?
Karhana Beile's words caused the expressions of those around him to change slightly.
However, they quickly realized the dire situation and understood that if they didn't consider their options, things could become extremely dangerous.
Therefore, they did not object much to Karhanabele's proposal.
"Give the order to retreat!"
Karhana Bele spoke up.
Immediately, Karhana Beile, carrying the three Yanning Year 1 breech-loading rifles he had fought so hard to seize, rushed outside.
Under the protection of the Imperial Guard cavalry, they retreated northward.
After receiving the order, the grassland bandits on the Saihantala position also fled north.
At the same time, the grassland bandits and cavalry on the outskirts also began to withdraw from the battlefield.
In a short period of time, the situation in Saihantala changed dramatically.
...
"Report!"
A staff officer rushed to Li Lanhe's side and said, "Commander Li, the grassland bandits have retreated!"
"Yeah?"
Upon hearing this news, Li Lanhe quickly picked up his binoculars and looked at the chaotic battlefield of Saihantala in the distance.
The battlefield was extremely noisy, with people coming and going.
However, Li Lanhe still saw some signs of a rout.
"hehe!"
Li Lanhe sneered and said, "These grassland bandits are really going to retreat! But do they think they can escape like this? They're dreaming!"
Li Lanhe sneered, feeling utterly confident.
He knew that in the north, the 6th Infantry Division and the 4th Cavalry Division, led by Commander Mu, were waiting for them.
This time, the Battle of Saihantala was planned for a long time.
Li Lanhe and his group arrived in Saihantala and waited for several days, hoping that the encirclement would be fully in place.
The purpose was to ensure that the main force of these grassland bandits all died here!
How could we let the duck that was almost in our mouths get away?
joke!
Li Lanhe smiled and said, "Order all units at the front to launch an attack! Don't let them escape!"
"yes!"
The staff officer quickly responded.
The order was immediately given, and the various units at the front began to pursue the enemy northward.
Although the soldiers of the 7th and 8th Infantry Divisions moved slowly on foot, the long range of their rifles and machine guns proved very effective.
The bullets, as if they had eyes, aimed at the bandits who had fallen behind and fired directly at them.
One by one, the grassland bandits died on the spot.
While the 7th and 8th Infantry Divisions were fiercely pursuing, the 5th and 6th Cavalry Divisions in the open field were also flanking the fleeing bandits from the east and west sides respectively.
Rumble!
Rumble!
The thunderous sound of horses' hooves echoed across the wilderness, stirring up clouds of sand that billowed into the air.
"Stop them! Stop them!"
Seeing the billowing dust behind him, Karhana Beile's face changed drastically, and he roared hysterically.
Upon hearing the news, some grassland bandits and cavalrymen on both sides rushed towards that direction.
However, their journey there was likely to end in disaster.
On both sides, the grassland bandits and cavalry circled around the Gobi Desert and charged directly at the Fifth and Sixth Cavalry Divisions.
Yellow sand filled the sky, and dust filled the air!
"Giddy up! Giddy up!"
One after another, warhorses galloped forward.
Seeing this scene, Du Zhanjun, commander of the 5th Cavalry Division, frowned slightly and sneered, "They still dare to fight us? They're really tired of living! Since that's how it is, then let's grant their wish! Brothers, kill them all! Kill them to your heart's content!"
Alright!
The soldiers of the 5th Cavalry Division around him gripped their Type 1 Yanning breech-loading rifles, aimed at the grassland bandits and cavalry in the distance, and pulled the triggers.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A dense hail of bullets shot forward. The bullets pierced through the air, hurtling towards the grassland bandit cavalry.
Pfft! Pfft!
Instantly, several grassland bandit cavalrymen were shot and killed on the spot.
After firing a single bullet, the soldiers of the 5th Cavalry Division skillfully pulled back the barrel of their rifles, preparing to reload.
However, sand and dust blew into the chamber, and the bullet jammed right after it was loaded.
"Hold!"
A company commander roared, looking at his rifle, and shouted, "Brothers, watch out for the sandstorm! It might jam!"
At the company commander's prompting, the other soldiers loaded their bullets and also managed to block the bullets with their hands.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another volley of bullets swept forward.
Rows of grassland bandits and cavalrymen fell on the Gobi Desert.
Meanwhile, the two sides were getting closer and closer.
"Fix bayonets!"
