Rebirth of the Northern Giants

kill

The squadron occupied the city gate with little effort, crossed cover and rushed into the city.

Only then did the British soldiers react.

"The Chinese are attacking" drums, whistles and other sirens sounded together.

Boom boom boom.

The squadron quickly intersected in front of the British position, and the soldiers took out grenades and threw them into the British trench defensive position.

A series of explosions made the British soldiers tremble with fear, and thick smoke and flames continued to rise on the front line.

Da da da

The Chinese soldiers with light machine guns fired a swarm of bullets before the British guy, who was dizzy from the bombing, could react.

The neatly lined up British people were suddenly blown to pieces and fell into a row.

In the Potala Palace, Macdonald, who suddenly heard the gunshots, was puzzled for a while. With his experience, he heard the gunshots coming from the city.

The squadron actually broke through the line of defense and entered the city. It was impossible. No matter how brave they were with shotguns and broadswords, it was impossible for them to rush in in such a short period of time.

He didn't keep him waiting for long, the communications officer with a tattered body and a dark face rolled into the door,

"General, the Gurkha Regiment has rebelled and opened the south gate. The squadron has already rushed in, and the defenders at the east gate have also been attacked."

When MacDonald heard the report, he dug his ears in disbelief, fearing that he had heard it wrong, and asked in disbelief: "What are you talking about, the Gurkhas rebelled, and the squadron came in? Even so, you should fight back Their offense."

"General, this squadron is different than usual. It is very powerful and equipped with advanced rifles, and they also have cannons and machine guns." The communication officer said with a pale face.

Macdonald yelled and ordered the surrounding officers: "Go down quickly and organize the soldiers to counterattack. The main force of the Chinese has arrived."

Before the British generals had time to leave the Potala Palace, a large number of British army routs flocked here from all over the city.

Immediately, the small Potala Palace was squeezed to the brim.

"No, the Chinese have surrounded us."

"Chinese weapons are too powerful"

They who were still dreaming of getting rich just a moment ago finally woke up and retreated steadily.

The panicked soldiers passed all kinds of information in a mess.

Macdonald stared at this scene dumbfounded, when did the soldiers of the British Empire become like this.

Fortunately, his reaction was not slow, Ma pulled out his pistol, fired a shot, and shouted angrily: "Soldiers, we are soldiers of the British Empire, how could we be defeated by a weak squadron, hurry up, follow me to break through. "

MacDonald didn't want to be surrounded by the Chinese in the holy palace, so Ma gave the order to break out.

The terrified soldiers gathered around him as if they had found a backbone, and rushed towards the north gate that had not yet fallen into the hands of the squadron according to the order.

Tatt-tat-tat, a deafening sound of horseshoes sounded from the streets of the city, and not long after, a cavalry troop appeared behind the defeat of Britain.

Those fleeing soldiers only hated their parents for not giving him a few more legs. They ran around like howling ghosts and wolves, forgetting to fight back. The British were defeated.

However, no matter how fast the two-legged man could catch the four-legged beast, click, click, there was a sound of cutting watermelon, and heads fell from the bodies of the British soldiers.

A strong shock hit the soldiers around Macdonald, and the brutal slashing frightened the courage of these soldiers.

"Quickly, don't let those rout soldiers run over." Macdonald had gathered an army of more than [-] people, fearing that the soldiers who had just been hunted down would disperse his team, so he immediately ordered.

His order did not have any effect, because the Chinese cavalry chopped down the group of soldiers, and then the whole army turned around beautifully, turned around outside the range of Macdonald's troops, stopped advancing, and then stared at them. Stare at this formed resistance force.

MacDonald didn't dare to run away. He was afraid that after he gave the order to flee, the troops would be disintegrated. He found that what was even more tragic was that there were no heavy weapons in his team, and those heavy weapons were deployed in the defensive line of the city gate.

Due to the rapid breakthrough of the squadron, these heavy weapons had no time to transfer,

There were bursts of gunshots everywhere in the city, but outside the Potala Palace, there was the trembling British main force, and Macdonald felt sad for a while.

He knew that the enemy must be waiting for the infantry to wipe out the other troops in the city, and then the artillery and machine guns will annihilate their own troops.

No, staying here is just waiting for death. Once the four city gates fall into the hands of the Chinese, there is only one way to die.

No matter how many people are lost, they must escape.

MacDonald gritted his teeth, leaving behind a broken army, leading more than 1000 people to march towards the north gate in fear.

Except for one or two dead-headed soldiers, all the soldiers who were cut off felt strange when they heard MacDonald's grandiose statement that he was going to lead people to open the passage.

On the way to the north gate, an attacking team lay in ambush halfway, just as the British were coming, Wu Dashan divided the troops into four brigades, two of which entered the city, quickly attacked the other two gates, and the other Ambushes in the city, waiting for the British army to escape from the north gate, the last most mobile force, ready to support other brigades, this is also the decision he made after learning that the British generals were gathered in the Potala Palace.

In order to prevent the British army from sticking to the Potala Palace and destroying this historic palace, they must be given a way to survive.

"The British are coming." Hiding in the ruins, the Chinese soldiers behind the houses couldn't help shouting excitedly when they saw the British soldiers fleeing in panic.

Almost at the same time, as soon as Britain stepped into the attack range, more than a dozen heavy machine guns burst into anger, and the bullet rain swept towards the unprepared enemy.

Macdonald stared dejectedly at the soldiers who kept falling. This was a massacre. He couldn't help but think of the words that the old lama said when he massacred the Tibetan army - the road ahead is long, and there must be a place to die.

Is Lhasa the place where I will be buried?

"Raise the white flag," Macdonald said weakly, looking at the soldiers who had no fighting spirit.

Lhasa finally returned to Chinese hands

Except for a 2000-man army stationed outside the city and a small number of soldiers who escaped from the north gate, the British were dumped by the squadron.

Chapter 3 and Nine Squadrons will never attack the city

Volume 3 The Wind and Cloud of the Capital [-] Chapter [-] Beijing Treaty

3 Chapter [-] Treaty of Beijing

News of the disastrous defeat of the British army at Lhasa shocked the entire Western world.

When China defeated Russia, various experts pointed out that, firstly, Russia was not strong in the Far East due to internal and external troubles, and secondly, although Russia has always played the role of European military police, they relied on their large numbers of people, and the army in Europe could only be regarded as Second-rate role, therefore, for the squadron's ability to defeat the Russian army, apart from being amazed, it is more of a lament for the good luck of the Chinese, which encountered a peasant uprising in Russia.

After that, China's defeat of Japan will not cause much sensation. Japan, it is estimated that any small country in Europe can pry open its country. If it is not located in the Far East, far away from Europe, and there are not many resources to plunder. I don't know how many times I have been ravaged.

However, this time, the Chinese actually defeated a British army of more than [-] in Tibet. Who is the British? The United States is even more so.

He was defeated in a battle by the Chinese in a daze. I heard that even that guy named MacDonald was arrested by others. How can we not shock the Western world.

Although Curzon, the governor of the British Indian colony, clamored to continue to send troops to Tibet and expand the war, most of the British could not help re-examining the significance of sending troops to Tibet, China.

This conquest, which lost troops and defeated generals, did not bring any substantial benefits and glory to Britain. Instead, it caused a lot of troubles in diplomacy. The failure of military operations also made other countries see clearly the plight of the British. The emerging United States and Germany saw the possibility of challenging traditional forces, and the status of the boss was seriously affected.
