Chapter 776: Blood Splashed Old Summer Palace
Hundreds of French soldiers lay on the ground and set off a riot of guns in the Old Summer Palace where there might be hidden people, and naturally they didn't even see a ghost. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoSo far, the French army has only detonated one mine, but this mine was detonated in the most dense place of the French army, and the indiscriminate attack of the anti-infantry mines caused hundreds of French soldiers to be injured, and at least a dozen people were killed on the spot.
Since the attack on China, how has the French * team, which has been smooth sailing, ever suffered such a heavy blow? And even without seeing the enemy.
The marister who led the team was Mitterrand's grandfather, Mitterrand the Elder, and he lay on the ground and carefully observed for a long time, and finally could not determine where the cannon they were hit from.
The Qing army's 'cannons' stopped after only one shot, and old Mitterrand was even more self-righteous in concluding that they had been attacked by artillery.
The cannons of this era were basically breech-loading guns, and after firing a shot, it was necessary to wait until the barrel had cooled down a little or artificially cooled before the second ammunition could be reloaded.
Old Mitterrand knew that if they continued to lie here and fight back indiscriminately, they would only become the target of the Qing army's artillery, waiting to be beaten.
So, old Mitterrand jumped up from the ground, brandished the gun in his hand, and shouted, "Come with me, everyone, if we wait until the pigtail cannons are cooled, they will shoot like us." ā
That's right, now lying here waiting for the pigtail army cannon to cool down, isn't that lying here waiting for death?
The French soldiers got up from the ground with a shout and rushed after the elder Mitterrand towards the Old Summer Palace, leaving only dead bodies and wounded soldiers in the spot.
The French army under the leadership of old Mitterrand frantically rushed towards the gate of Xianliang, old Mitterrand took the lead, the first step of the gate of Xianliang, before he could wave his weapon to encourage the period, when two huge explosions sounded behind him one after another.
I'm afraid there is no weapon in this world that likes the enemy to launch a group charge as much as the M18A1 anti-infantry mine, these two mines were originally stepped on by two French soldiers who were afraid of death and deliberately hid in the middle of the crowd.
Time is urgent, mines are precious, and the number of mines planted by Ren Liang and others in front of Xianliangmen is not very large, only a dozen.
Dozens of people rushed over in front, all of them safe, but these two mines were stepped on by these two unlucky guys, and they were in the center of the most dense crowd.
The French soldier who was following the two unlucky men clearly saw a strange thing that he had never seen before suddenly bounce off the feet of the guy in front of him, and one of them reached out curiously to grab the mine that flew up.
The chief said that China is full of treasures, especially the Forbidden City and the Old Summer Palace, where countless treasures are placed, waiting for them to come and take them.
At this time, he had arrived at the gate of the Old Summer Palace, and the countless gold and silver treasures in the Old Summer Palace were only left in his mind, and he thought that what bounced up from the feet of the guy in front of him might be the treasures left by the Manchu Emperor in the Old Summer Palace, so he couldn't wait to squeeze away the soldiers who had reached out to reach the thing with his shoulders, and grabbed the treasure with his hands.
Unfortunately, the tips of his fingers had not yet touched the treasure, and the treasure suddenly made a loud bang, and it exploded in an instant in the dazzling explosion light.
The cargo and several people around him let out a scream almost at the same time, and then, the cargo watched a black thing fly towards him, and he didn't even have time to blink, so he snorted, fell to the ground with a pop, and went to hell to continue his dream of making a fortune in China.
With two explosions, hundreds of soldiers from Old Mitterrand's battalion fell down in unison, and the screams instantly brought people into the Asura Hell.
Old Mitterrand was at this time in his youth, and he quickly threw himself to the ground, shouting, "Lie down quickly, they are shooting again." ā
The man who had already thrown himself to the ground, with at least a dozen bloody holes in his body, scolded old Mitterrand fiercely in his heart with the last remaining consciousness, and he no longer had the strength to tell others the scene he had seen with his own eyes.
The French soldiers who followed Mitterrand Sr. were no more stupid than anyone else, and when they heard the explosion, their first reaction was to lie down, and the second reaction was to find cover nearby and hide.
When the reflexes quickly find the nearest rockery or tree to hide, disaster strikes again.
Two loud explosions were heard again from the direction of the rockery and the tree, and the steel balls flying in the sky smashed like hail towards the French soldiers who were fleeing in panic.
However, the reaction of the people was as fast as the steel balls that were hit by the explosion of the mine, and in the blink of an eye, two large groups of people fell in unison, and even many French soldiers who were lying on the ground and did not dare to move did not escape the catastrophe.
Old Mitterrand felt only a sharp pain in several places all over his body, and then looked at his battalion of soldiers, who could hardly find a single soldier who had survived, except for those who were rolling on the ground.
"Retreat, retreat quickly, the pigtail army has an ambush in the Old Summer Palace." Old Mitterrand finally came to his senses, he knew that the soldiers of this battalion had no strength to fight again, and including him, had been frightened, and he dared to continue to stay here.
Old Mitterrand got up from the ground and limped back to the way he came, followed behind him by a hundred and eighty French soldiers who were crying out for their mothers who were missing arms and legs, and most of them had remained permanently in front of the virtuous gate of the Old Summer Palace.
In front of the Zhengda Guangming Palace, Tang Dou was holding an AK47 in his hand, listening to the successive explosions coming from the direction of Xianliangmen, he quickly shouted at Ren Liang and the others: "Follow me." ā
After that, Tang Dou had already taken the lead in running in the direction of the Xianliang Gate where the explosion sounded, but he didn't dare to stare at the road under his feet in the slightest, for fear that he would also step on a landmine and die unjustly.
All the way without hindrance, Tang Dou led Ren Liang and other skilled eunuchs to run to the vicinity of Xianliang Gate, and from a distance, Tang Dou saw the French soldiers lying all over the ground, and he waved his hand and ordered: "Conceal the advance." ā
Tang Dou and the others quickly approached the Xianliang Gate by means of the statues, big trees, rockeries, etc. on the side of the road, and when they saw that the outside of the Xianliang Gate had turned into a sea of blood, and the French soldiers who were discarded everywhere had become corpses, Ren Liang couldn't help but raise his arms and cheered: "Brothers, let's beat the foreign devils away." ā
"Oh~" The eunuchs also cheered.
Tang Dou shook his head, the Chinese people have been weak for a long time, especially in front of the foreigners, they need a victory too much, so don't hit them at this time.
Without Tang Dou's orders, Ren Liang had already led those eunuchs to the battlefield quickly to review their victories.
"Foreigners have suffered such a big loss from us, they will definitely not give up." An aging voice came from behind Tang Dou.
Tang Dou turned around and saw that it was Wen Feng who came later, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wen, why did you come here, it is dangerous here......"
Wen Feng smiled bitterly: "The country will fall, where is it safe?" ā
As he spoke, Wen Feng raised the AK47 in his hand and smiled at Tang Dou: "Isn't the adult looking down on Wen's old bones?" Lao Chen didn't kill two foreign devils with his own hands today, and he didn't blink an eye. ā
Tang Dou hugged Wen Feng with emotion, and said in a low voice: "The foreign devil will come back soon, and Master Wen will follow me after a while." ā
What Tang Dou can do is to do his best to protect Wen Feng as much as possible, he knows that Wen Feng has made up his mind to die, rather than this, it is better to let him fight happily. (To be continued.) )
