The actions of Hauge on the Eastern Front soon spread to the Eastern Finger, causing great turmoil.

"I really didn't expect that a reckless man like Hauge would know how to attack the enemy and save him."

Bai Xiaoqi frowned, thinking about how to solve it.

Jeongseon must not be lost, the food and materials there are the guarantee of the whole army.Once there is a problem, there is no need to fight this battle.

However, there are only so many troops at hand. If they divide their troops to support them, the breakthrough that they have finally opened in the front will be useless.

At the critical moment, Liu Yiyuan, as the commander-in-chief, made a decision.

"Let the chief officer of the militia come to see me."

There are mainly two militia regiments active on the Korean battlefield, the Yizhou Militia Second Regiment and the Liangshan Militia Second Regiment.

The two regiment leaders rushed over immediately after receiving the order.

"You already know the situation on the Eastern Front, right? The little battalion commander handled it well, but he definitely couldn't hold on for too long. But the front side really can't afford to take action, and it's impossible to support. I plan to give the task of defending Hauge to Do you have confidence?"

Xia Guo's militia has the same regulations as the regular army, mainly for the smooth connection when the militia is converted into a regular army.

Therefore, the combined strength of the two militia regiments is more than [-].

It's just that there is a huge gap with regular troops in terms of weapons and equipment, training levels, and combat capabilities.

Under normal circumstances, the militia regiments serve as regular troops.After slowly tempering and reaching the standard, they will be transformed into regular troops.

But now that the situation is urgent, Liu Yiyuan can't follow the steps.

He decided to let the two militia regiments counter Haug's tens of thousands of troops.

Suddenly given the task of standing alone, Yao Yuanyuan, head of the Yizhou militia regiment, and Wu Chonghua, head of the Liangshan militia regiment, were all very nervous.

"Commander, how long do we have to hold on?"

Liu Yiyuan looked ruthless.

"Persist until the last person, do you have confidence?"

A mountain of pressure hit their faces, and Yao Yuanli and Wu Chonghua straightened their backs immediately.

"Guaranteed to complete the task, we will fight to the death."

Although they are not the main force, they are also soldiers of the Xia Kingdom and have the same sense of honor.

With a heavy burden on our shoulders and a heavy responsibility ahead, we can only give up everything and take the completion of the task as the highest mission.

Liu Yiyuan had already imagined what kind of bloody test these two militia groups would endure.But there is no way, it is like this on the battlefield, there is no room for mercy.

"You don't need to take the initiative to attack, you just need to set up a defensive line around Jeongseon. With Yao Yuan as the leader and Wu Chonghua as the deputy, do you understand?"

The heads of the two militia regiments firmly accepted the mission and rushed to the precarious Eastern Front.

"Order the whole army to speed up the attack. Tell the ministries that I only want Hong Chuan."

Liu Yiyuan knew that now was the time to fight for his will.

It depends on whether the Qing army attacked Jeongseon first, or the Xia army attacked Hongcheon first.

Whoever does it first will win the entire battle.

Although death orders were issued to the two militia groups, he didn't have much confidence in whether they could hold on.

The only hope is to attack Hongchuan as quickly as possible, break through the southern line of the Qing coalition forces, and threaten Chuncheon's flank.

The situation was quickly communicated to all ministries, and all generals knew the seriousness of the problem.

The fourth division's attack was already very fierce, but now it is going all out.

Even the Sixteenth Regiment, which had originally cleaned up the mess, quickly joined the attack sequence.

Not surprisingly, the two sides collided at Yu Yanli.

Tulai and Nikan, who had retreated from Hengcheng, helped Ashdar Khan establish layers of defensive fronts in Yu Yanli.

Dorgon has issued a strict order to them, they must guard this place, and they are not allowed to retreat a step.

Liu Yiyuan's order is beyond doubt.

We must break through Yu Yanli and hit Hongchuan.

Since both sides have no way out, only one side can survive.

A fierce battle began.

Surrounding the small village of Yu Yanli, on the mountains and hills with a radius of tens of miles, almost every inch of land started a bloody fight.

"I don't want casualties, I just want Height [-]. I let rockets support you, and you must take it down."

In the frontline headquarters, Bai Xiaoqi was like a hungry wolf.

He scolded the complaints of the generals in front, and at the same time sent additional support.

The rocket artillery units of the Fourth Division began to show off.

Hundreds of rockets roared like death, filling the sky with colorful flames.

But this kind of thing is absolutely hated by the defenders.

They have no other choice but to jump into the trenches one after another, and then leave their hope of survival to luck.

The rocket shells completely enveloped the entire high ground, and the air waves of the explosion swept across.The sharp sound explosion, the pervasive smoke and dust, and the raging fire destroyed the entire position and disappeared.

All the soldiers of the Qing coalition army lay on their stomachs in the trench, covering their ears and howling with their mouths wide open.

Only in this way can the sonic attack of the explosion be slightly mitigated.

There is not much time left for them to relax. Everyone knows that after the shelling, the Xia army will start to attack.

Before the aftermath of the explosion dissipated, the generals started running back and forth in the trench, kicking, beating, shouting and cursing.

"Get off! Get off! Go back to your place!"

The soldiers of the Qing coalition army stood up grumbling, their feet still shaking, while looking for their weapons.

But before they returned to normal, a figure as fast as a leopard suddenly appeared in the thick smoke, and the bayonet that exploded with cold light quickly approached them.

The screams immediately sounded on the battlefield, which really frightened the Qing army.

No one expected that Xia Jun's attack would be so desperate this time, closely followed by the artillery bombardment.

Are they not afraid of being bombed?
The Qing army had no time to think about this problem, and they could only resist indiscriminately in their panic.

Cruel hand-to-hand combat spread throughout the highlands, but the blood gathered into a river and flowed down the mountain.

Xia Jun's soldiers rushed up to the high ground one after another, one after another.

They lined up row after row, bayonets rolling forward like rolling waves.

Although the soldiers of the Eight Banners are very brave, but no matter how high their martial arts are, how many times can they struggle under the stabbing of countless bayonets?
The number of people fighting became less and less, and the resistance became weaker and weaker. It seemed that the loss of the highland was not far away.

Reinforcements from the Qing army arrived and climbed up from the other side of the high ground.

Once they are on the high ground, the battle will return to an evenly matched situation.

Of course, this was something Xia Jun didn't want to see.

"Grenade! The [-]th Battalion will charge with me and beat them down."

Sui Zhizhong, who personally led the team to attack the high ground, quickly took countermeasures.

At the same time, he drew his saber and led a battalion of soldiers to countercharge the reinforcements of the Qing army.

Hundreds of grenades disrupted the formation of the Qing army. The soldiers of the Xia army went up the mountain like tigers and began to besiege the helpless enemy at the front.

Behind both of them, there are still countless troops climbing up like ants.

This highland has become a flesh and blood mill.
