Section 54 Capture and surrender prisoners and pacify Lunan
"This thing is a cannon?" Liu Laoqi didn't pay attention to the more than 200 people under the mountain, after all, the last time Mengyin and Fei counties were encircled and suppressed, more than 100 officers and soldiers, and 5 or 600 strong men didn't even come in with crooked necks, and these two hundred people can take care of a fart. The guard with a crooked neck is Wang Liang, the master of the White Tiger Hall, Wang Liang has a white face, a tall man, and a mixed number of "jade banner pole" on the rivers and lakes. However, at this moment, the jade banner pole has become a fire stick, a water of black charcoal from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside, except for the eyeballs and a mouthful of white teeth, the others are "angry and fierce, don't let Hei Li Kui." "It turned out that the insurance regiment brought four flying thunder cannons, just came to a test firing, I didn't expect the effect to be so dazzling, the wooden fence wall at the pass directly became a cloud of sawdust, and a dozen minions on the wall have also returned to the cell state, Wang Liang thanks to the command in the watchtower more than ten meters behind the walled gate, this is to pick up a small life, but the flying sand and rocks and billowing gunpowder smoke directly gave this a trendy sunburn makeup, and when he stood up crookedly holding on to the railing, the infantry of the insurance regiment has begun to carry guns and sing songs to line up into the customs, Only then did he realize that the bucket that the other party had just lifted out at the gate of the village was not a war drum, but a real cannon, and it was a giant cannon like the birth of Thor. The hundred and ten minions lined up in the pass to open their bows and arrows were all rolled to the ground, knocked to the ground by the waves of air and debris, the only difference was that some were still howling and rolling, and some were already bleeding from their mouths and noses and were motionless. It wasn't until he was dragged down the stairs and thrown to the ground by the people behind him that he realized that he had been captured.
"Well, shout, is there still a Kunlun slave in this village?" Xiao Mingfeng squatted down curiously and looked left and right, and suddenly came to such a sentence, which directly amused everyone, Wang Liang rolled his eyes, what kind of eyes did he say in his heart, the dignified jade banner pole was mistaken for a Kunlun slave, it was simply unbearable.
"Don't make a fuss, go, lead your men to gather the prisoners, clear the shooting range, and prepare to deal with the bandits' counterattack." Du Zicheng became a little older, and while instructing his subordinates to control the commanding heights and paths, he asked people to help the fellow gunners clean up their affairs. "Come on" Xiao Mingfeng and Du Zicheng are also teachers and friends, so they are more obedient "The first and second squads gathered and guarded the prisoners and dug trenches, the third and fourth squads continued to go forward one hundred and fifty meters, set fire to the wasteland, and cleaned up the shooting boundary, the fifth and sixth squads cleaned up the dead and wounded and cleaned up the ground, and the seventh and eighth squads collected materials and prepared lunch. Brothers, hurry up. The eight squad leaders of the rear detachment were all veterans, so they naturally knew how to assign manpower, and for a while, the iron-gray figure with the Manlixia rifle on his back was busy. An hour later, the two trenches had begun to take shape with the efforts of the prisoners of war, the firing range had been cleared, the two accompanying Makqin and the four flying thunder cannons had been placed on the position, and when everyone put down the dishes and chopsticks, Xiao Mingfeng wondered if it was time to find a place to take a nap. From the second pass, a group of people finally appeared, and it looked like there were no less than five hundred minions, no matter what the appearance was, at least they were equipped with knives and guns, and they were carrying a few guns, birds, and the like. The leader was two big men riding pack horses, and there was also a strong man behind him holding a big flag, which were the black Xuanwu flag and the yellow green dragon flag. After the two of them stood still, the queue was also lined up in the glaive arrays on both sides of the road.
At this time, he had already entered the shooting boundary of Makqin, but Du Zicheng saw that the other party did not have heavy firepower and did not order to shoot, the man with the yellow turban on the other side rushed forward a few steps, and roared two hundred meters away: "Where did the thief bones come from, dare to spread wild here in Wanghailou, and the acquaintance quickly let go of my brother Wang, put down the foreign gun and get out, otherwise Lao Tzu knows you, and the knives of Lao Tzu's brothers don't know you." ”
"Poof" Xiao Mingfeng was directly angry, "This guy is not a nymphomaniac, he knows the foreign guns of our brothers, and he is still so confident." ”
"When the forest is big, there are really all kinds of birds, forget it, a reckless man is not worth the care." Du Zicheng muttered, and then gave an order, "Prepare for the platoon guns, listen to my command to fire a salvo, machine gun fire to suppress the two wings, don't let them hide in the forest, fly the thunder cannon and wait for this gang of thieves to retreat, give me a round of coming up to the pass, and strive to invite them back with a wave of air." Catch more work, the boss is short of manpower to open the mine. ”
The reckless man saw that the insurance regiment was forming a whole team on the position, and no one took care of his stubble, thinking that he had frightened the other party, and returned to the queue with a proud circle of horses, "Shi Laosi, how about it, brother, I scared these outsiders with a word, wait a while, we will divide the account with three or seven, I will be seven and you three, and my brother will take care of you boy." ”
"I don't think the other party has any intention of surrendering, but it seems to be in a position to attack." Although Shi Hong said that he was not very old, he had also seen the world, he saw that no one on the other side was running around and shouting, but they were all very calm and lined up, although he did not see that the other party had backup, but with this courage to calmly line up in front of a strong enemy, it was not comparable to the regimental officials in the county. However, he also knew that Liu Lianzi couldn't listen to this, so he didn't say much, but secretly called a few of his henchmen to his side, and told them to take people to retreat into the woods when they saw that the opportunity was wrong. Before a few henchmen had time to disperse into the team, Liu Nianzi had already led a group of young men to press up.
"Fire" Du Zicheng gave an order, and the left detachment, which had been lined up in four columns of firing formation, fired in unison, and in the sound of gunfire, the guys who rushed in front of him fell down in unison, but under the effect of inertia, the bandit army behind him continued to charge forward, and finally arrived in front of the red sign wood after three rounds of volleys, and had already grasped the sweating machine gunners to open the meat, the sound of firing shots, the sound of jingling bullet casings to the ground, and the humming of machine gunners clenching their teeth were not as shocking as the deathly howls of the bandits in front of them. The two Makqin were like two fire whips from the wings to the middle, peeling off the bandit army layer after layer, and the rest of the people involuntarily crowded towards the middle, and now the riflemen have begun to scatter, but the target is so concentrated that it is more difficult to miss the target than to hit, often from the gap in the front of the person, hit the bandit behind, or penetrate the limbs of the front bandit and then penetrate the chest and abdomen of the back bandit, directly sugar gourd work. The forty or fifty bandits in front died on the spot, so that the crowd quickly lost the courage to fight, the discipline of the bandits was really scum, they turned around and ran, completely ignoring their backs, fortunately, Du Zicheng stopped the machine gunner who changed the bullet chain and continued to roll the roll in time, otherwise there would be no more guys with all beards and tails. Shi Hong has seen very clearly, the other party is simply shooting targets with live ammunition, even if they are all practicing people, they have to fall halfway, the other party has set up a big barrel again, I don't know if it is a more powerful foreign gun and foreign cannon, Shi Hong has no heart to guess, although he still has forty or fifty henchmen and more than two hundred strong men, but they are already frightened birds, it seems that it is only a late death with them to run back, Shi Hong resolutely decided to surrender between thoughts, but he can't just let the sheep go.
"What is this young man making a fuss about?" Xiao Mingfeng was very puzzled, "If you come out without bringing it alone, you have to fight with us in front of the battle, is it a half-green thing?" ”
"I'm afraid it's kind of interesting." Du Zicheng asked everyone to get ready, and the flying thunder cannon must also be set up, and the other party's cooked duck can't fly. But seeing that the opponent's junior general walked to a place less than 50 meters away from his own position, he put the big gun in his hand casually, opened his hands, and pointed his palms towards the position of the insurance regiment, indicating that he had no weapons. "It's time to talk about the conditions, hehe, finally met someone who understands something."
"Sir, the villain's name is Shi Hong, and he is the second leader of the group at the moment, and the big leader has just died in front of the battle. The villain saw the sharp firearms of the military masters, and thought that he was not an opponent, so he wanted to ask the military master to let him live, so that the little ones could save a small life. The military master has orders, and the little ones naturally follow them, and they ask the military masters to be compassionate. Shi Hong kept raising his hand and walked to the array, Xiao Mingfeng waved his hand to let the soldiers get out of the way, and the two stood face to face.
"Well, if you want to survive, it's not difficult, you put down your weapons and tie your hands and arrest them, our insurance regiment pays attention to surrendering guns and not killing. If any of you dare to cheat, don't blame Lao Tzu for not leaving my chickens and dogs. "Xiao Mingfeng had dealt with bandits a lot when he was the security chief before, so he could naturally tell that this kid was indeed a leader, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to quiet the crowd just now and wait in place. Since he is willing to surrender before the battle, the boss has given him the task of catching more alive, Xiao Mingfeng is also happy to be generous, anyway, it is not the green battalion soldiers who have to rely on their heads to exchange for silver.
"Brothers, you all tried it yourself just now, even if we are iron-clad men, we can't withstand the foreign guns and cannons of the officers and soldiers, we are dead, but our family is small, there is no one to feed us, who wants to die if we can live." Shi Hong returned to the team and began to persuade others. Everyone was faced with a choice of life and death, and most of them didn't make it clear and didn't dare to talk nonsense.
"Stone Ling, you are an understanding person, do you think the government can spare us. If we want to say that our brothers have some blood debts under their hands, if the government turns its face and denies people, we will be blind. A small leader asked tentatively, and everyone below was talking, and some of the thoughtful ones were already restless.
"In this way, after a while, I will take the brothers who are willing to gamble with me to the other side to surrender, and we will try to disperse and delay each other, anyway, it will take time for the government to tie people up, and the brothers who do not want to be together will be left behind for a while, and they will run to both sides when they get out of the ditch, and whether they can run out depends on their personal creation, and the brothers will be able to say that they should disperse." Shi Hong saw that he was not an eyebrow, so he simply proposed to go their separate ways, so that Liu Nianzi's bandits would have no excuse to encourage everyone to make trouble.
"One Squad Shooting" "Two Squad Shooting"
The monotonous sound of "ping-pong, ping-pong" gunshots rang in the ears of the kneeling bandits like a big bell ringing on the ground, and some bullet casings bounced to the ground in the crowd, and the crisp collision sound made many people shrink their necks, as if they heard the black-and-white impermanence of the spirit-calling ringtone. There were those who had the courage to turn their heads and peek at them, only to see the gray-black figures running along the edge of the ditch falling to the ground in the sound of gunfire, and there were fewer and fewer heads, and finally someone couldn't bear the pressure in his heart, and he fell to the pebble field by the ditch as soon as his legs were weak, and a few turned to stand still, raised their hands high, and signaled that they would not run.
Xiao Mingfeng turned around and looked at Du Zicheng with a cold face, Du Zicheng did not say, at this time, it was the turn of the fourth squad of the left detachment to come forward to shoot, and the squad leader saw that no one dared to continue to escape except for those who surrendered and fell, so he couldn't help but forget to give the order to shoot, and turned his head to see if the detachment leader wanted to spare their lives? Du Zicheng waited for a few seconds and didn't see the team leader's order, he glared at the team leader coldly, the team leader was frightened, it seems that Du Boss doesn't plan to open the door of mercy, come on, continue to exceed. The monotonous gunshots of the "Four Squads Shooting" rang out, and several figures with their hands raised fell to the rocky beach like half a tree stump as if they had been struck by lightning, and after two convulsions, they were no longer silent. Finally, by the time the fifth team finished shooting, there were no living creatures on the rocky beach. Du Zicheng waved his hand at Xiao Mingfeng, "These prisoners have been handed over to the left detachment, let the rear detachment go up." ”
Of course, Xiao Mingfeng understood what Du Zicheng meant, "All the rear detachments should pay attention, put on bayonets, form a horizontal formation, and inspect the battlefield." ”
