Chapter 150 (14) Moments of Desperation

Batur Saye had this confidence because he already felt that the odds of victory were in his hands, and he was confident enough to wipe out the Qing army. Long before the Qing soldiers entered the country, he let the five primitive tribes in the southeast and west of Gurkha: Zhe Mengxiong, Brook, Zongmbuk, Jiagar and Bazuomu cooperate with the army of the royal city to encircle them from behind and Guerrilla tactics cut off the back of the Qing army, and the Qing army can be wiped out at that time. This plan is extremely terrifying. Once it is implemented, it may really be like what Qianlong feared most. At that time, only Sun Shiyi and his fellow escaped back to report the letter.But there was only one thing that Batur Saye did not think of.

He can write letters, and so can Fukang'an. As soon as he entered the country, Fukang'an wrote a greeting letter to one of the chiefs of many tribes in Gurkha.The letter said: If you are willing to cooperate with the Qing soldiers to kill Badur Saye, then everyone can seal off the borders of Gurkha and dominate Gurkha. Each tribe received two letters, look at this one, look at the other: Well, which side should I help?With that, I will wait and see, whoever wins, I will help. People have the same heart, the same heart, and opportunism is never easy.Therefore, all the primitive tribes in Gurkha stood still and nervously watched the battle between the Qing army and the Wangcheng army.At this time, it was discovered that the Qing soldiers had advanced to the front of the Wangcheng, and the way was like a broken bamboo. The Wangcheng army was obviously not an opponent.The tribes acted immediately and asked Fukang'an to distribute money to the tribes, and everyone helped him fight the Wangcheng army.

But Fukang'an has become a primitive man now, where will the money be distributed? After much deliberation, Fukang'an could only think of one way: take Jiaergula and Jimuji, and then go straight to the royal city to end the battle. The guards Amantai and Eredeng were sent to cross the river and attack Jiaergula; Fukang'an personally attacked Jimuji. The battle started, and the guards Amantai and Eredengbao led the Qing soldiers to rush to the other side of the river.On the opposite bank was a wooden fence that stretched as far as the eye could see, and the Gurkha soldiers hid behind the fence and shot at the Qing soldiers.The guard, Amantai, rushed over first, and leaped with his hands on the fence. Just as he was about to jump over, he was accidentally shot by a Gurkha below. Amantai screamed and fell into the water to die.

Under the leadership of Eredengbao, the rest of the Qing soldiers climbed over the fence regardless of their lives and fought hand-to-hand with the Gurkha soldiers.In the end, it was the Qing soldiers who were so vicious that they finally pinched the defenders and retreated hastily.Eredengbao led his army to the top of Jiaergula Mountain, and then swooped down to cooperate with Fukang'an to attack Jimuji. Jimuji is even more dangerous. On the top of the mountain, there are ten barracks of Gurkha alone, and the defense is tight.The old warrior Hai Lancha suggested to set up camp according to the river and fight a protracted war.Fukang'an is in a hurry: Come on, Lao Hai, our morale has reached a critical point. If we miss today, our morale will collapse. Whether there will be tomorrow is a big question.At this point we have only one way to attack Jimuji, if we don't win this battle, everyone might as well die here.

Hai Lan checked: Yes, it's such a critical time, why set up a camp?Hurry up, charge and kill... With a loud shout, the Qing army launched a fierce attack towards the top of Jimuji Mountain.The Gurkhas on the top of the mountain were also furious, and they shared the same hatred. This battle was about the survival of the country, and there was no reason not to go all out. They saw stones and logs rolling down like rain, throwing their generals down on the Qing soldiers on the hillside.At the same time, with a long cry from across the river, three groups of Gurkha reinforcements rushed to kill, and the Qing army greeted them. The two sides first fired muskets, bows and arrows, then fought cold weapons, and then fought hand-to-hand.In the battle report written by Fukang'an to Qianlong, it was stated that the Gurkhas were coming so fiercely that the Qing army was forced to fight and retreat.

At the critical moment, Fukang'an held a saber and rushed forward like his life. The commanders at all levels of the Qing soldiers also fought bloody battles with the Gurkha soldiers. Died in battle.Under the desperate protection of the family general, Fukan'an was not strangled to death by the crazy Gurkhas. After fighting fiercely for a whole day, at nightfall, the Gurkhas came to help again, and they were about to pass the bridge guarded by the guard Eredenbao.Eredenbao did not retreat, and only heard groups of people in the dark, and there were clumps of people everywhere. After fighting all night, the sun rose, and both sides were at the end of their battles.At the end, they had to go all out, but both sides had no strength to scream anymore, so they could only choke each other tightly, and continued to fight slowly and stiffly, and they fought like this until night.At this time, all the Qing soldiers lost their strength and lay down on the ground without moving.If there are Gurkhas rushing up again, the Qing soldiers will definitely not be able to chant.

In the night, Fu Kang'an sat on the ground blankly, looking at the corpses one after another beside him.Half of the Qing soldiers who accompanied him to this expedition had died. It is a distant dream after all to drive directly to Wangcheng and take Gurkha. Despair came with the darkness at the same time, and Fukangan closed his eyes weakly.
