The next day, they had only traveled ten miles. These ragged soldiers had some messy weapons in their hands. They walked hard in the cold early spring. Just after the foot of Jinsiding Mountain, they froze to death two old soldiers, so they had to stop camping again. They are largely untrained. At most, they go to the market town or Liaozhen to repair turtle shells. Wei Li only had food to eat for two or three days. Most of them brought some dry food of their own. In the first month, they have to work hard and bring their own food and grass. No wonder they complain a lot. On the third day, there was good news. The White Rock Cliff garrison brought more than 50 people to join the brigade. In the afternoon, Zhang Tongzhi of Cheng Shanwei also brought more than 10 families and more than 200 families of soldiers. Only the farthest Jinghaiwei did not arrive. Jing Haiwei did not take this path. Only one thing that was shipped to Weihai was snatched by Tong Tianliang, so it cannot be actively understood. This time, the main forces are Weihaiwei and Chengshanwei. If Tong Tianliang had been robbing them, the commercial routes between the two places would have been broken. Officials from both sides must fight this lawsuit, both publicly and privately. This is why Yang Yunnong is so cold and wants to send troops.

After the end of the two sessions, there were more than 700 soldiers. Although it is an encirclement army, it is at best an officer and soldier. Everyone also has a lot of weapons in their hands. There are fifty or sixty people in your family. We don't think that Tong Tianliang can defeat the officers and soldiers,

Yang Yunnong has the highest official position here. On the morning of the fourth day, not far from Weiqi Mountain, he brought the people and horses of thousands of families in Baishi Cliff first. Finally, he thought of having an outpost.

Chen Xin's team is still at the end. The road goes to Wendeng County. The road conditions are not bad. The soldiers were still marching in two columns. In front are Dai Zhenggang's two murder teams. Behind are Lu Chuanzong's two killer teams. The gun team and the Hou Qin team are in the middle.

Chen Xin also walked in the middle with his own soldiers, following the gun team. Zhu Guobin happened to be by Chen Xin's side. He's been playing with these three new bows for the past few days. The bows and arrows used on the Fu boat were relatively less powerful. Zhu Guobin doesn't like them very much. The bows and arrows of the left thousands of households are the leftovers of the delivery department. The quality is a bit poor, but it can still be used. Good power. He chose two bows and arrows, and Chen Xin was the only team that he and Zhou Shifa could shoot arrows. Both of them had a pair of bows and arrows with thirty heavy arrows on them. The last one is Nie Hong. Although he had great strength, he could not bow. These days, he is practicing shooting tree trunks, but his results are poor.

In front of the team are five peaks with an average elevation of more than 200 meters. The highest peak, the Jade Emperor Peak, is the old nest of Tongtianliang, about 400 meters. In many places, the mountains are steep, and the trees on the mountains are bare in winter. The snow has not changed in the past few days, and the mountains are black and white.

In fact, Weihaiwei is very close to Go Mountain. Probably in the middle of Weihai and Wendeng. It is 50 miles away from Wendeng County, 40 miles away from Weihai, and nearly 20 miles away from the mountains. If Tong Tianliang can't defend and the weather is a little longer, it is estimated that the beggar army may be disbanded.

Half an hour later, the front of the car stopped again. Zhou Shifa ran all the way to the front and looked. In return, he said the wooden bridge over the Angkor River had been demolished and that people on the White Rock Cliff were building it.

Chen Xin listened to Zhou Shifa's answer, frowned and said, "The bandit leader may have known that we were here for a long time. He didn't know where to wait, but he could only fight with a hundred people. How dare he attack the army?"

Zhou Shifa said: "Tong Tianliang was a soldier in Dengzhou. I'm afraid he knows a lot. ”

Zhu Guobin also felt that it was inappropriate, so he asked Zhou Shifa: "Did the outpost send scouts to cross the river first?"

"I don't think so. They're all building bridges. ”

Zhu Guobin said angrily: "It's enough to walk slowly, how can you not send scouts when you march." ”

Chen Xindao: "The people on the White Rock Cliff are all boy scouts. Guo Bin will go with me to the river to have a look. ”

The two men came to the river with their own soldiers. There is not much water in the river, and there are some ice floes on the river, but they can't get across. The wooden bridge on the official road was demolished, and the piles and planks were tilted in the middle of the river. Several family members of Baishi Cliff and Qianhu escorted more than 30 military families to build the bridge. They installed the bridge deck directly under the riverbed, instead of erecting the bridge deck as before.

Chen Xin looked across the river. The river is flat. There are traces of cultivation in the fields on both sides. It seems that last year it was peaceful here. There are several hillsides about a mile from the riverbank. The mountains are covered with bare dense trees after falling leaves. They seemed to be silent.

Chen Xin said to Zhu Guobin: "The mountain behind is easy to hide hundreds of people. You can also hide a lot of things in the woods. Tong Tianliang really wants to ambush the officers and soldiers here, is it really difficult?"

"There's a good chance he won't be able to tie us in half. I'll load the gun squad right away. ”

At this time, Zeng Qianhu also arrived. Chen Xin told him about his worries. Zeng Qianhu didn't believe that Tong Tianliang dared to come out, but he asked Commander Yang and Jiang Tongzhi to tell him. Yang Yunnong was not worried at all. He doesn't care about robbers. He still didn't send scouts. He just thought it was too slow. He asked Zeng Qianhu to find another place downstream to build another bridge.

Chen Xin and others had no choice but to follow more than 100 people from Zuojiahu Lake and find a shallow water area fifty steps downstream. The water here is only knee-deep, but it is not easy to dry your shoes and pants after wading in winter. Zeng Qianhu sent servants to lead the military households to harvest timber and prepare to build a bridge.

The bridge of Zuo Jiashu has not yet been built. The bridge for this brigade was completed. More than 50 people from the lake in front of the White Rock Cliff crossed the river first. After crossing the river, Qianfushuo sent two cavalry to the south side of the mountain. Chen Xin looked at it with a sigh of relief, and then looked around at the bridge. His heart hung again.

The Weihai Guard did not wait for the two servants to return. They can't wait to cross the river. By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, dozens of people had already passed by. One of them got off his horse and went up the hill. His figure disappeared into the trees. After a while, more than a hundred people passed by. They lined up in a small line on the shore and walked forward with the people on the White Rock Cliff. The garrison led by Yang Yunnong began to cross the river, and Chen Xin saw Wang Yuanzheng and seven servants lined up.

Zeng Qianhu's pontoon bridge was only half built. He was ready to give up and cross the river directly from the brigade. The servant next to him suddenly pointed to the other side. Zeng Qianhu and Chen Xin looked up and saw that the servants at the foot of the mountain were running this way. Dozens of figures drilled into the woods behind him. One of them rode the rest of the horses and followed the servants.

The guy in the back is better riding. He chased more than a hundred steps. When he got behind the servant, the rider drank a large glass and the javelin in his hand flew out. He stabbed the servant in front. The servant spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and put the spear on his chest several times. It was as if he wanted to tear it off. After a few more steps, he finally fell. The bandit rider continued to chase for a while, while leading the servant's empty horse, and looked at the garrison fifty or sixty paces away from the opposite side, where a large number of bandits still poured out of the woods, and stood behind him one by one. "You're such a bandit,-. Zeng Qianhu looked at those figures, stupid, needless to say, they all knew that the family business in their previous life was over.

Before crossing the river, the lives of the military and civilians were in shambles. The 2,000 families in Qianshuo Baishi Cliff took a few servants to drink and scold, and lined them up. Yang Yunnong, who was on the riverside, also urged the city management to cross the river. The soldiers and civilians who did not cross the river were also panicking. The town's caretaker removed two soldiers from their belts to prevent them from escaping.

Chen Xin said to Zeng Qianhu: "Lord Zeng, you should let the sergeant wade across the river immediately." ”

Zeng Qianhu took the ice floe and looked at the river, and hesitated: "The water is so cold......

Chen Xin didn't wait for him anymore. He turned around and ordered the army to take off their shoes and roll up their trouser legs. On the orders of the leader, the soldiers rolled up their trouser legs and stepped into this biting river. They quickly entered the South Bank. There are four killers in two rows, two in front and two in the back. The gun squad is behind the murderer.

When Zeng Qianhu saw it, he also persuaded his men to cross the river. After a long time, more than 30 soldiers came here. Zeng Qianhu, who knew how to lead the troops, did not dare to delay for too long. He took more than 30 people to the left flank of the front.

When they crossed the river, all the bandits reached the opposite bank of the siege army. There were four or five hundred. Although there were more than 700 siege troops, half of them did not cross the river. Only three hundred of them completed the battle, but their combat condition was getting worse and worse.

There are only 50 steps left for both sides. They were thin and shabby. The robber in front of the robber has a weapon. The people in the back looked at the pure peasants. Someone took a hoe and a pole. A couple of people simply took a large branch. The first ten robbers saw the body of the butler on the ground. They rushed in and stripped him naked of his clothes and shoes. They stripped the housekeeper naked in a few moments. Even a pair of socks was shared by two robbers.

Then the bandits in the front row parted, revealing a large black red flag with a beam drawn at the back. He was also a bandit leader on horseback. He was so strong that his face could not be seen from a distance. He was supposed to be the same dawn himself.

"My lord, where are we going?" Zhu Guobin saw that the two sides were about to start a group fight, but Yang Yunnong did not give an order, so he hurriedly asked Chen Xin.

"Move to the left. From the left flank. Chen Xin did not wait for a clear order. He saw that the vanguard of the garrison was reduced to a regiment, and the garrison behind was also arranged, but he was not transferred to the front. He was worried about the chaos of these people, so he moved to the left himself.

There were two rows of mandarin ducks in the combat team, and they quickly ran to the left flank. The 11 soldiers of the logistics team also dropped their luggage, each with a knife and a stick, and followed.

As soon as they left, a battle broke out in the middle. Tong Tianliang shouted to the bandits: "The officers and soldiers have come to rob us of grain and grass, so that they can get their hands on it." We're going to starve to death. All who retreated would have their heads killed, and those who killed officers and troops would be rewarded with a silver coin or two. "You can sleep at night. The robbers howled. These robbers had a lot of courage. Most of them were forced to become desperate peasants. As soon as they exceed the limit of patience, the most honest and responsible peasants turn into bloodthirsty fanatics and a mad vengeful society.

With a wave of his hand, Tong Tianliang immediately rushed to the garrison. The bandits did not have any organization. The bandits are in front, and the bandits are close behind. The five or six robbers in front were the most powerful. They held their walking bows and stopped shooting a few steps before they ran. It looks like they've practiced it. In a few moments, they each fired three or four shots. The garrison was assembled. Some people in the front row have shields. They quickly picked them up and blocked them. Those who did not have shields were shot seven or eight people at the same time. There was a scream. The people in line panicked. Thousands of families on the front line hurriedly asked their families to start fighting back. Arrows come and go on both sides. Some of the bandits were shot and fell to the ground. They were immediately trampled by countless feet.

"Raise your gun!" the tree shield raised, and the thousands of soldiers in the garrison shouted loudly. All the soldiers quickly raised their swords in the direction of the robbers. The defenders were supposed to draw swords, shields, and spears in the back row, but they were poorly equipped. When they were attacked, they were in a hurry. The ranks are chaotic. There were only a few guns in the front row, which did not scare the bandits at all.

Fifty paces later, many of the soldiers of the garrison shouted loudly to embolden themselves, and some of them screamed uncontrollably in fear. Screams were everywhere in the garrison.

With a "bang", the bandits charged at high speed with their weapons and slammed into the front row of the guards, and a wave of people appeared on the battlefield, mixed with the sound of blades crashing and screaming.

Chen Xin led the team around the left flank. From his point of view, he saw only one weapon and weapon dancing, and the crowd was still spewing blood mist. The brutality and gore of melee combat far exceeded that of later wars. Military families in Weihai receive little training. They had never seen anything like it before. After the casualties, the front platoon had already begun to retreat. Chen Xin looked at Yang Yunnong's national flag identification, and saw that Commander Yang was immediately shouting and ordering the defenders to stand up.

In the melee between the two sides, the situation of the bandits was not much better. They just fought bravely. At this time, after the bandits had a slight chance of victory, the momentum became even stronger. The defenders in the rear of the garrison filled and stabilized their positions.

Suddenly, there was a scream in the middle of the front row. The red flag of Tong Tianliang has arrived. The bandit leader personally brought more than a dozen bandits to attack the middle of the front row. They were armed with spears, broadswords, axes, and other heavy troops. These people were the bravest of the bandits. Seven or eight people were killed in the guardhouse in front of them. The surrounding soldiers and civilians couldn't control their fears, and fled to both sides with shouts, and were pulled apart by the same dawn.

The robbers will kill them on both sides. Tong Tianliang rushed out of the gap with more than 30 bandits and went straight to Yang Yunnong's flag claim office.

"Run!" After the family members of the Weihai First Army shouted these words, the confusion quickly expanded. The front platoon of the garrison was disbanded. All the servicemen cried out for their lives. They dropped their weapons and fled to the river. The mayor killed several people with a waist knife. The soldiers and civilians of Zuo Qianhu, who had just crossed the river, had just lined up. When they saw it, they rushed back to the other side. At this time, Chen Xin's men and horses appeared more than 30 steps away from the bandits' right side. Several scattered families of the Left Army were panicked. They saw that there were officers and soldiers here. They came here in desperation. Among them was the strong man who angered Lu Chuanzong back then. Chen Xingang ordered the soldiers to form a team and looked up at the deserters. After a few glances, he found the strong man and said coldly to Nie Hongdao, "Take off his head." ”

Nie Hong looked at the man, very unhappy. He didn't hesitate to draw a knife to meet him. The brawny man bypassed the line of killers in the front row and ran desperately, shouting, "Run!" The impact on Chen Shui-Bian's new team also fluctuated slightly.

He bypassed the second group of soldiers and shouted the word "run away". A bright light shot from the side, leaving the two words in his stomach behind him. His head flew high, a red fountain erupted from his broken neck, and the headless corpse fell several meters away. Although the warriors practiced killing every day, they also simulated pigs, sheep, internal organs, and blood water, but very few actually killed people. They just watched the bloody battle, and then looked at the decapitation up close, and they were all pale.

Nie Hong held his head high, and Chen Xin said loudly behind him: "In our army, there are people who retreat from the battlefield and resist life. The officers could immediately behead them, and those without pensions and families would be expelled from Weihaiwei and die for themselves. ”

That damn head was in Nie Hong's hands. All the soldiers knew that there was no way back. For recruits who go to the battlefield for the first time, threats are much more effective than agitation. Chen Xin used someone else's head as a warning, which not only did not require losing his own hand, but also achieved the effect. Chase away the annoying.

"Line up in front of the gunfire team!" Chen Xin shouted at Zhu Guobin from behind. He didn't expect the garrison to retreat so quickly, so he had to use firearms to attract the attention of the bandits and let the brigade reorganize the formation.

Zhu Guobin quickly led the guncorps to form a horizontal line in front of the killers, 3 feet apart. He and Zhou Shifa took off their bows and arrows and opened fire on the nearest bandit to cover the firearms team. At this time, command was handed over to the captain of the firearms team.

"Check the line of fire!" Captain Gungun shook slightly.

Ten cannons nervously blew the arquebus, aiming the fire at the lid of the fire door. One of them quickly reached out, and the Panzer Commander immediately took out a firebox and lit it for him. The movement here has attracted the attention of some on the bandit right. A little head is rising. Seeing that this army dared to provoke, he rushed over with more than 50 bandits.

Zhu Guobin and Zhou Shifa shot arrows at the dense bandits and shot several people in front.

"Open, open the fire door. ”

The shotgunner's ammunition was loaded before crossing the river and could be delivered after the fire door was opened.

Seeing the bandits rushing in front of the gun team, Chen Xin's heart was pounding. Battles on land are still more egregious than battles at sea. He does not have the basis of his own training troops, and its effectiveness depends on the upcoming battle in the blink of an eye. The corners of Nie Hong's mouth also twitched, and Haigouzi and the others stood beside Chen Xin, ready to protect Chen Xin at any time.

"Aim!"

More than 50 bandits fled from the brigade and rushed twenty paces away. Their eyebrows and eyes were clearly visible, and the gunner's hands trembled slightly.

"Fire!" Captain Gunner also picked up a turtle spear and pulled out the hook. On the "Gunner" array, a series of explosions occurred, and at the same time, a large amount of white smoke was emitted from the front and above. The loud roar tingled the soldiers on both sides.

Seven or eight people fell in front of the bandits at the same time. Plumshot of about 10 mm can easily hurt their bodies. When a soft lead bullet encounters resistance, it rolls out of shape in the muscles and internal organs, forming small external and thick internal wounds. They fell to the ground, let out oozing screams, and did not die for a while. Within 20 steps, there was no armor to stop a qualified bird, and the clothes were not worn by bandits.

As soon as the guncorps fired, it returned to the rear row to load. After the smoke cleared, the group of killers preparing for battle saw that the bandits were still rolling on the ground, and... A fugitive.

The most ferocious bandits in front suffered heavy casualties, and the light of fire and gunfire had a great psychological effect. The flanks in the back were hit, and morale was quickly lost. They turned to the timid peasants and fled into the ranks.

Chen Xin breathed a sigh of relief. These robbers are really robbers. They always bully the weak and fear the hard. Even a well-trained army could not stand shooting at close range. What's more, these robbers. The killer in front of us seems to be more relaxed. Striking from a distance is very effective for gaining a psychological advantage.

I didn't expect the ferocious bandits to run away in a row. Zhu Guobin has some experience. He ran back to Chen Xin's side and whispered, "Sir, let's get rid of all the past." As long as we defeat the middle way, this battle will be won. After all, Chen Xin went to the battlefield for the first time and did not seize the opportunity to pursue. After the gunshots, the right-wing bandits fled back to the center in a panic. The middle way was also in chaos for a while. Tong Tianliang reacted quickly. He yelled at the nearby robbers. The robbers around him stopped the pursuit. The bandit flag has been moved to the right. Chen Xin was inexperienced and lost a good opportunity to cover up, Chen Xin complained to himself in his heart, took a deep breath again, and calmed himself down a little.

The rest of the bandits were still pursuing the defenders. Chen Xin saw that Yang Yunnong's banner had been pushed to the river. A large number of garrisons screamed and jumped into the river. They ran to the opposite bank. Some military families who did not cross the river were shaken and could collapse at any time. However, the garrison and their families are still partially completed. At this point, they can only attack directly in the middle. If they can stop the attack of the bandits, it will be possible to change the situation, after all, these officers have families, and the real combat strength of the bandits does not exceed 150 people.

"The killer moved forward, and the archer followed. The logistics squad protects the firearms squad and chases the brigade after reloading. ”

"One-two-one-two" was in the front row, and the leaders of the two murderer brigades shouted slogans and hurried to the bandit brigade. The latter two killer teams are not far behind.

They were not moving quickly, but the threat from the flanks still made the bandits take it seriously. The banner of Tong Tianliang has reached the right flank as early as possible. The robbers had no command. The left knows nothing about the right. They are still hunting down officers and soldiers.

Yang Yunnong was eventually driven across the river, but Tong Tianliang's ferocious bandits left, which caused Yang Yunnong to lose positive pressure. He took the opportunity to organize his family to go to the river to fight back, and some bandits who were chasing the river were beaten back. Some chengguan picked up rocks from the river and threw them away. Some family members started shooting arrows again. The robbers threw down several corpses and walked a few dozen steps away from the river, and the same losses were handed over to the command. The troublemakers saw the bandit flag moving to the right at dawn and did not know what was happening. Most of the military and civilians in the garrison are still on the run. The other officers of the garrison sent their servants one by one to the front row. These servants were treated much better than military men, and they blended in with the fate of the officers. Their fighting intentions and fighting abilities are far superior to those of ordinary military families. There was no confusion between the garrison and some of the city defenders, the situation was stabilized, and the confrontation between the two sides has resumed.

Chen Xin saw that the bandits had stopped pursuing, and his goal had been achieved. As long as Yang Yunnong organizes the family and the city guard, the officers and men will still have combat effectiveness. As soon as they shot the retreating enemy, his confidence increased, but the momentum of the bandits remained. He did not dare to directly oppose the bandits. Seeing Tong Tianliang's bandit banner appear in front of him, about 80 paces away, he immediately ordered: "Stop advancing!

The two front queue leaders shouted, "Stop!"

The four killers stopped at the same time. The two killers in the front row were ten paces apart, and they were still lined up in two lines against the enemy. The two round shields in the front row and the four soldiers in the back row used their weapons on both sides. The captain stood next to the two sword and shield soldiers. As soon as the birds and cannons were filled, they caught up.

Under the banner of the bandits, Tong Tianliang looked at the officers and soldiers opposite. He had long known that Weihaiwei was going to kill him. He has been training his men for a long time. He was confident in defeating the defenders. He was impatient. In the end, he got the exact news. He sent people to follow the officers and soldiers all the way. Today, he dismantled the bridge and prepared for battle. He almost succeeded – he used to be low-key. He had a lot of luck last year. After swallowing a few gangsters, he wanted to agitate a little and fight for the safety of the gangsters. He was also obsessed with government. He used to be a warrior. He knew the level of the Wesso army. He wanted to hurt Yang Yunnong so that he could speak better when recruiting. Everything was going well. As long as he chases all the way and fights all the way, the officers and soldiers will only be defeated. If Yang Yunnong can be captured alive, it is better to talk about it. However, he was upset about this small force. Of course, he hated these people. The army on the opposite side did not have a flag, not even a flag on their backs. Only a few of the team members have red pennants on their flag guns. Only four round shields and two officers with flag guns were on the other side. The people behind hid behind the round shield. The saber stretched out like a hedgehog. There were several archers in the back. A group of birdspear soldiers came.

When he was a warrior, he knew that the army was well trained and let them rush over from the flanks. There was only one way for him to die. Only a few soldiers remained in the former garrison and the garrison on the opposite bank. He couldn't attack for the time being, so he settled a small unit first. When they returned, the robbers were in shambles. His command was not good, but the defenders on the opposite side were the same. He was not worried about the front, so he took more than 100 bandits to the neighborhood to make calls, ready to personally attack the right flank.

"Welcome to the gate!"

The leader of the bandits who began to kill the horseman drove his horse over, "Great Cabinet, I'll take someone to break the formation." ”

Tong Tianliang glanced at it and scolded: "You are still riding a horse to find death." You don't think people will shoot at you. Roll down. ”

The welcome door beam chuckled: "Look far away, no, close the door." ”

Yingmen Liang is the third of the bandits, which means pioneer. He was especially responsible for fighting and killing. The bandits of the Ming Dynasty were generally divided into four beams and eight pillars. The boss is called Dage, and Tongtianliang is called a nickname.

"I have sent a hundred little brothers and thirty old brothers to break his line for me. ”

"I see!" Eimenliang knew he was using his little brother as cannon fodder. These little brothers are not young, but the newly attached refugees and broken settlements, are used as cannon fodder. Tong Tianliang planned to take more than a dozen bandits with them after they set off and prepare to attack them as before. These were his old subordinates for many years. They were very brave in battle, the equivalent of his family.

After these two people thought about it, they stopped being verbose. Tongtian Liang sent a personal retinue to lead more than 100 little brothers. After threats and agitation, they were ready to go. Yingmenliang and thirty old brothers blended in the middle of these two little brothers. He still rode his horse so he could see better. Just as the order for the attack was about to be given, a group of birdspear soldiers turned from the back to the front, and an officer continued to command vaguely. At this time, he saw that the guns of the officers and soldiers were between 70-80 steps. He wasn't worried at all.

The old bandit shouted to the little brothers. They also saw the Shotguns 80 paces away, but they weren't as worried as Yingmenliang. How could the bird spears of the officers and men hit so far? As soon as they had arranged their people, there was a sudden sound of opposites.

"Ahh The people in the back don't know what's going on. They wanted to squeeze into the front row, but the door beams were clearly visible. This was a mistake on the part of the officials. So far, Dog Day can continue to fight. He shuddered, and hurriedly dismounted from his horse. He yelled and scolded his men, but no one heard.

He slammed the scabbard all the way to silence the men. There was a roar on the other side. The three robbers fell to the ground. The screams were louder. One of them was shot in the abdomen. The bullets were huge. He opened a large blood hole in his stomach, and some of the spoiled colorful intestines came out. The robber screamed violently. One by one, the surrounding little brothers retreated. They are stimulated by the status quo, and that bloody courage has long since disappeared.

"Damn, so fast. Tong Tianliang also heard the voice behind him. The interval between the two was short, at least much shorter than he had imagined. He had just seen that there was only a team of shotgunners, how could they be so fast. Looking at the bandits in front of him who were getting louder and louder, he knew he couldn't wait. "Yingmen Liang, wait for me to show you how to go, what route, just rush over. ”

Yingmen Liang broke out in a cold sweat and shouted: "If you want to eat meat and sleep, you will kill the officers and soldiers!"

The robbers responded in unison, but their momentum was much weaker than before. Together, they rushed to the officers and soldiers there. They were afraid of the birds and cannons of the officers and soldiers. They were more or less hesitant and refused to hurry. They're a lot slower. They had just rushed thirty paces and fired another shot in the opposite direction. Several more robbers fell to the ground. The courage we had just mustered disappeared in a moment. They all slowed down. Many little brothers rushed to the sides and behind.

After 50 steps, the gunners on the other side were divided into two groups, each group retreated to the rear row to continue loading. However, some archers began to shoot several people in succession. The bandits of two or three archers also began to fight back. However, only four circular shields can be seen opposite. The others hid in the back row, and the arrows they shot were blocked by the round shield, and not a single hair was shot.

Facing the door beam, while holding the formation, looking at the opposite formation, secretly calculating. He put only two sword and shield soldiers in front of him. As soon as he rushed to the front, he removed the sword and shield from the front, and the long weapon behind him was useless.

The robbers have already lost more than a dozen people. They are on the verge of collapse. The little brothers in the front row watched the hedgehog formation rush more and more slowly and fall behind. Most of them are old brothers. However, Yingmen Liang didn't care. It's thirty paces now, and it's a close fight. He believed that in the event of hand-to-hand combat, these officers and soldiers would soon retreat, and several of the bandits who were shooting arrows would also pick up their bows and draw their waist knives.

With a shout from the opposite side, many figures flashed to the two wings behind the four round shields at the same time, forming a dense horizontal line. Liang Yingmen's face suddenly darkened, and he fell off the abacus of playing round shields.

The vertical arrangement soon became a horizontal arrangement, which is what Chen Xin saw that day. When the Mandarin Duck Formation encounters the enemy's defense, it can use a vertical formation, using the round cards and long cards in the front row to cover the whole team and reduce the damage of the enemy's long-range weapons. After approaching the enemy, it quickly turned into a horizontal formation, and the force was fully expanded. This is exactly the same concept as the French vertical array attack concept during the Napoleonic reign in 1791, except that the deployment method is not as numerous as the French army, but Chen Xin believes that the deployment of Qi Dashuai is simpler and easier to use. There are also protective covers for the front rows. Unlike the French army, which relied only on enthusiastic soldiers as flesh shields to keep bullets out, few soldiers in front of the vertical could survive every battle. In addition, the Yuanyang array can also be quickly converted into a large and small trinity array, which can be used in smaller streets or mountainous areas. Each of the triad arrays has its own characteristics, building combat capabilities. The disadvantage is that the arm composition is complex and the training is difficult. After the first two teams are deployed, the last two killer teams are also deployed at the same time. Hurry to the back of the front team and put the blade in the gap. Dai Zhenggang and Lu Donkey followed the two teams of the other side to supervise the battle and fill the gap.

When the horn sounded, 48 killers stepped forward and shouted "Tiger!" (Note 1)

Wang Changfu stood in third place on the right. With the wings extended, the swordsmen and shield soldiers remained in the middle. There are four spears in the middle and on each side of the two sword and shield soldiers. Outside the spear was the captain, boring palladium and long knives. The robber on the opposite side was twenty paces away. He was going to the battlefield for the first time. He was short of breath. His face was red and his mouth was dry. But he still held the weapon firmly. He used a flag gun, which was his main weapon in battle. It is eight feet long. It's as long as boring palladium. There is a red triangle underneath the tip of the pipette.

The four spears in the middle of the line intertwined and stretched freely. It was a real spear, 7 feet (over 5 meters) long. It makes barrels from bamboo from the south. This kind of old bamboo, which has been dry for many years, is not the kind that is bent when picked up. It is very hard, even harder than many hardwoods, and it weighs very lightly.

The second horn sounded, and Wang Changfu followed everyone and took a step forward, and after each shout, his nervousness weakened slightly. He could feel the strong shouts of the comrades around him, which was a collective strength. If the third horn sounds, it will be a moment of hand-to-hand combat, and it will be endless.

The robbers walked twenty steps. Four soldiers with knives and shields stretched out from behind their shields and threw four javelins in their right hands. Four heavy javelins roared away, and the speed of the bandits also increased the power of the javelins. Wang Changfu saw the three old bandits fall to the ground and scream together. Faced with the Assassins' razor-sharp spears, some of the peasant-like threats fled in either direction, or simply turned and fled.

However, Wang Changfu suddenly felt a relief from tension, and a mouthful of saliva entered his dry mouth again, and his throat felt a burst of comfort.

The third horn sounded, Wang Changfu shouted "tiger" hoarsely at the same time, and the whole team began to run forward. There were footsteps behind him, and they were the comrades of the second team. Behind him, the shout of Deputy Squadron Leader Lu Chuanzong came, "There is no retreat." If there is retreat, there will be death!

Wang Changfu never thought of retreating on the battlefield. He has a tough personality and is also familiar with military law. Anyone who retreats on the battlefield can be decapitated. If he retreats after entering the speaker three times, he does not need to go back to the execution. The deputy squadron leader cut directly into the battlefield. It is better to be killed by the enemy.

"Kill it!", the soldiers shouted together, and the old bandit in the middle also shouted. The distance of more than ten steps between the two sides disappeared in an instant, and the two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

"Poof, poof" gunshots kept coming, and the soldiers rushed in. A five-meter spear stabbed the robber on the opposite side. Wang Changfu stepped forward and forced back an axe bandit in front of him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Captain Fan Shouye stabbing an old robber in the chest. It is estimated that the spear pierced his sternum, and then he carried the robber directly back into the sky and flew to the robber's chest, the blood from the wound in a strange arc in the air.

Eight spears in the first row killed six or seven people. These spearmen were made up of the strongest and most ferocious. They practice hundreds of assassinations a day. During their daily training, they also need to tie weights to their hands and feet. Now there is nothing so heavy on the battlefield, they are more agile with their hands and feet, and their speed is amazing. Small spearheads are not easy to block. What's more, such a high-speed assassination is a human life for bandits without armor, every time a spear is killed. For ease of carrying, the bandits did not have such long spears. Qi Jiajun's bamboo spear is very light. Its attack range can reach more than 4 meters, in addition to maintaining balance at the back of the body and keeping the body small in length. At this distance, the bandits could only receive simple attacks. It is an area equipped by regular troops and bandits.

The rest of the bandits continued to pour in under inertia. The two Assassins subconsciously grabbed their guns, and the spears of the other gunmen were retrieved. Several bandits in front of Wang Changfu tried to get close to each other and tried to fight at close range with old guns. Wang Changfu and the boring hand next to him stabbed them at the same time. This is something they often encounter in team confrontations. The spear is the main assault weapon, but the spear style is prone to aging. To cover the spear, we need to drill palladium and sword shields, drill the head of the palladium trident for attack and defense. With the help of Wang Changfu's spear, the two bandits could not escape, so they had to block with knives, took a step back, stood firm, and the spear was assassinated again. After a meal, the robbers fell limply.

The second round of spears is about to be collected. A strong bandit leader suddenly came out from behind, with several ferocious bandits. It's the door beam. In the final stages of the impact, he wanted to kill them from both sides. As soon as he started, he saw five shotguns in the rear wing. He had a big psychological shadow on these shotguns. One of them shuddered back, or went back to the middle. He took a long gun to collect it, and he grabbed one and stretched out his broadsword, ready to charge straight at it. He deliberately avoided the boring palladium and flag spear, attacking the middle of the sword and shield. After all, waist knives are not so scary.
