187 Burning the inner house

War is always full of accidents, although the advanced can always defeat the backward, but the god of war is also a hippie, and it is common to occasionally make some nonsensical jokes.

Don't think that having advanced foreign guns will lead to victory, this view is inherently wrong. In the face of this problem, Xiao He believes that what they did was very right, and what they were most afraid of on the ever-changing battlefield was the direct command of the high-level commander, and this kind of decision to take it for granted and pat their heads often buried a battle that should have been won.

Just one clash of orders from Tietoutuo had already taught the young army a bloody lesson, and these soldiers were still too tender to be attracted by the quarrel of the officers, which also gave the Qing army the best chance to raid.

Fifty dead soldiers were sharp knives, and suddenly cut off the military formation of the first company, and the Qing soldiers with hideous faces clinged to these soldiers tightly, and behind them, groups of green battalion soldiers rushed into the gap and soon joined the battle group.

The young men of the New Army also crooked their noses at this time, don't think that they can only play with foreign guns, they also fought hand-to-hand combat when they were in Naha, and the Japanese ronin thugs who killed them cried and shouted for their mothers to flee everywhere.

"Damn, is this a game with us? I think the brothers are afraid that you will not succeed...... The muskets are firing freely, and the brothers are plagiarizing with knives..."

More and more green battalion soldiers rushed up, and the formation of these two companies changed faster and faster, and in the end, Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun even gave an order to fight freely, and they decided to believe the young men under them.

At this time, it can be seen whose grassroots officers are high or low, in Xiao Letian's new army, ten people are a squad, three squads are a platoon, and three platoons are a company. Don't underestimate these squad and platoon leaders, just use their plain to be a thousand presidents in the Qing Dynasty.

Can you believe that the small squad leader of a class of 10 is literate? Moreover, they can also understand military English, at least they can understand the English on weapons, ammunition, and equipment.

These squad leaders can do simple four-rule operations, and even memorize ninety-nine multiplication tables, and by the way, they also learned division. In military command, some basic calculations and measurements are not a problem for them at all.

It is this kind of education process that surpasses an era of the Qing Dynasty that makes this army full of wisdom, and it is not wrong that this battle is fought with small wisdom and small cooperation.

"Three squads in hand-to-hand combat, covering the first and second squads to shoot...... Spencer opened fire..."

"The third squad withdrew, the first squad and the second squad pincer-outflanked and hit their two wings...... The third shift prepares grenades and throws ...

"The first platoon made a detour to the north, and all the soldiers fired in a skirmish line, holding them down and charging..."

"What about the three platoon commanders, the enemy line opposite you is the weakest, piercing through...... detour back behind the enemy's formation..."

"Brothers, we have received the best military training in the world, and we have the most powerful individual weapons in the world...... Don't embarrass us..."

Now Xiao Hexin and Sima Yun don't need to directly issue military orders, they are just boosting everyone's morale in the chaotic army. Strange to say, when they mentioned the disembowelment of the Japanese, all the soldiers were boiling.

"Damn, we're no worse than Little Japan, and our martial arts are only a lot more... Brothers, don't look back and let the godsons of adults laugh, if you can't raise your head in front of Xiao Ye Heita and Xiao Bingtaro, we will all have a disembowelment...... Kill..."

The morale of the two companies doubled in an instant, and all the soldiers went crazy, maybe these people couldn't listen to the three words Japanese, maybe Xiao Letian recognized the Japanese godson This matter made the brothers very stimulated. Anyway, this sullen breath in my heart is all sprinkled on these unlucky green battalion soldiers.

The three partial generals had never been so sloppy in their lives, and they watched the bald soldiers in foreign military uniforms interspersed back and forth in their military formations, and the muskets were shot in all directions.

And once these soldiers fight hand-to-hand, they are not afraid at all, maybe each of them is not very high in martial arts, but as long as they are allowed to get close, their fighting spirit can be overwhelming.

"Crazy, this is a group of crazy people, how can they all play in a desperate way, all of them are all tricks that end up together...... How much money did Xiao Lotian give them, and how did he raise it......"

In the thinking of the ancients, life also has a price, as long as you can offer enough prices, you can also have an iron army with full combat effectiveness. Whether it is the Guanning Iron Cavalry during the founding period or the current Hunan Army, they all have no wealth and do not gather troops, not to mention the Eight Banners of the Manchurians, that is, a bandit group, all the cohesion depends on two things, one is blood, and the second is interests.

General Li looked at the bald soldiers who had already fought to the point of madness, and he was desperately thinking in his heart, how much money did Xiao Letian drive a month? Five taels, ten taels, or twenty taels? Or simply learn from the Qin Dynasty to calculate the merits of war with heads, and carry his head to exchange for money?

The old general shuddered when he thought of this, and his eyes were already a little desperate when he looked at the new army, he knew that Xiao Letian had not had time to formulate the army's salary standard until now, and the current soldiers ate and lived in the barracks, and they didn't have a penny of silver in their hands.

When the battle is fought to this point, there is no need to think about the outcome of the battle, the results of the counterattack of the green battalion soldiers were completely lost, and the army of more than 1,000 people actually made 200 people unable to raise their heads.

Interspersed, roundabout, and intensive shooting of foreign guns, coupled with short knife fighting, grenades, and Molotov cocktail attacks, the people who were punched by this set of combinations were dizzy, and the entire Green Battalion Legion was gradually being pressed to the west, farther and farther away from Tanggu City.

Just when the three partial generals were struggling with the soldiers, in the northwest of Tanggu City, the form of the Xiao family's mansion was diametrically opposite, and Xiao Letian's nest was in danger.

The Xiao family's mansion has been surrounded by a group of horses since nightfall, Sun Sanhu selected the most skilled dead soldiers to lead the carefully selected cavalry in the green camp, a total of more than 200 people took advantage of the night to approach the door of the Xiao family's mansion.

When the fireworks in the city exploded, two hundred fierce cavalry ghosts rushed towards Xiao's house with a scream.

"Whoa...... Open Xiao Letian's house, and move the gold and silver mountains in it casually..."

"Oooh oh...... Xiao Lotian has a big view garden, which is full of beauties, everyone grab it, grab it and use it......"

"Ah......hh Promotions and fortunes are just today, and the brothers have worked hard......"

The horse's hooves trampled on the ground like a small earthquake, rumbling towards the Xiao family's mansion, everyone was showing off their superb riding skills, they relied on the strength of their legs to manipulate the war horse with their hands off the reins, and at that moment there was really a realm of unity between people and horses.

"Fire..."There was a sound from inside the Xiao family's mansion, and then a row of foreign guns came out of the wall, and there was a chaotic sound, and the fire spewed projectiles straight towards the rider.

After all, the cavalry has a high degree of mobility, and this group of people are all masters of controlling horses, and as soon as there is an abnormality on the wall, this group of people has already dispersed, and many people even played the unique trick of hiding in the stirrups.

Spencer's three intricate shots didn't yield much success, except for a few unlucky ones who fell off their horses, and the rest of the riders quickly approached the Shaw mansion in strange directions.

When the masters who were hiding in the stirrups turned over and got on their horses, there were suddenly many more unlit torches in their hands, and they saw the fire flicker, and one by one the torches burned.

"Burn them, there must be no mercy...... Throwing ..."It was almost an instant, hundreds of bright arcs were drawn in the sky, and the torches soaked in grease were blazing, rolling into the Xiao family's mansion.

More than two hundred war horses galloped back and forth around the Xiao family's mansion like dragons, and the torches were lit one by one, crackling into the room. The stable, the kitchen, the tall wings, and Xiao Lotian's favorite bush in the garden were all set on fire, and the whole mansion was filled with the terrified cries of the subordinates.

The thin ice in the pond was smashed, buckets scooped up ice water and splashed it on the flames, and the whole door of the mansion was filled with the roars of men and women, and the figures of people scurrying everywhere.

"Master, why hasn't the master come back, woo woo...... Save us, sir......"

"Where's my jewelry, where's my money? I'm going home, I can't stay here, woo woo woo ......"

"Bodhisattva bless, Guanyin Bodhisattva bless, please Bodhisattva save me ......"

The women in the inner house were in a mess, and the beauties in the Grand View Garden were able to stabilize their positions except for Qingwen, Raider, and Ping'er, and the other women were already frightened.

There are those who cry for their fathers and call their mothers, those who burn incense and worship the Buddha and make wishes, those who are scared to the ground, and those who run around and collapse and scream. The entire inner house was already in a whirlpool of fear and couldn't extricate itself, and at that moment it seemed like the sky was about to fall.

At the most critical time, it was the tiger girl who went up, and at this time Qingwen, Raider and Ping'er understood why the businessman's daughter would become Xiao Letian's wife and become a wife with Aunt Manchuria.

The tiger girl in a small padded jacket actually had a colt in her waist, and her tiger eyes were round and scolded at those people who had no flies.

"Panic, panic... The sky is falling, and the master and I are going to the top, what the hell are you called? All the men obeyed the order, picked up the foreign guns and put them on the wall for me to defend, you don't need to copy the knife and cut people, you can't set the gun far away? If you don't want to shoot, get out of the way, and tomorrow you will get out of the way for your aunt and grandmother......

"Women with hands and feet, don't you even know how to carry buckets of water? You gather people in the main house, splash the water out of the separation zone, and let him burn the outer side room as he likes, we just need to protect the three tiled houses in the inner courtyard, and guard this pond, and we can live ......."

It was under the command of Hu Niu that the Xiao family's mansion gradually restored order, and the men rushed to the wall, regardless of whether the shots were accurate or not, and the muskets did not need money to shoot out. And the women were gathered in the main house compound with a pond, trembling and waiting for a miracle to come.

The women spent the most difficult night of their lives, and many little maids were frightened and white, and their upper and lower teeth fought desperately. The attacker saw that this was not good, and it was estimated that a few would freeze down this night.

"Ping'er, Qingwen, let's go and hold the clothes, otherwise we will have to freeze a few for a night......"

At this moment, a woman sitting on the steps in the corner of the courtyard suddenly jumped up, and ran into the pond in three or two steps, only to see her crackling and slapping the thin ice and cold water.

"The sky is falling...... The earth has fallen...... Demons and monsters are coming to eat people...... Haha, hee, hahaha...... "People looked at it, and it was actually a girl released from the stable, and this woman who was stimulated was completely crazy. R405
