Chapter 24: Becoming an Army (11)

"The Gully Filler?" Wei Ze muttered.

In the past, when he fought on the battlefield, Wei Ze was on the front line. This time he was still on the front line, but as a commander, he was on the front line and did not directly enter the battle. Wei Ze didn't expect that he would actually sigh on the battlefield.

This sigh was not a diseaseless moan, just now more than 100 people of the Qing army rushed over, and forty or fifty people were knocked down within a minute. In front of the position occupied by Weze, there was a small ditch, which at this time was filled with the dead.

Within 20 steps, more than 200 people fired at close range, and these Qing troops in front of them lay down in an instant. There were also a few unlucky people who rushed to the "horse rejection array" composed of spears in front of Wei Ze, and were stabbed to death with spears by the Taiping soldiers who were squatting on the ground.

The Qing army behind was immediately frightened and fled back, directly behind was a deep valley, at least seven or eight guys could not hold their feet, and their lives and deaths were unknown after falling into the valley.

Wei Changrong, who commanded the spear formation, waited for Wei Ze to order to stop shooting, and then he led the pikemen to stab the Qing soldiers who were not dead on the ground to death. The corpses of the Qing soldiers close to the position were temporarily thrown into the ravine in front of the position. The corpses of more than 30 people not only filled in the peace, but even raised the mountain bags of corpses on the ravine. The thick smell of blood filled the air, and the rain could not wash it away.

Putting away this idea of sad and compassionate sighs, Wei Ze ordered: "The pikes retreat!" ”

At this time, the musketeers had already completed reloading, and Wei Ze did not feel that the pikes needed to stand in front of the muskets before the opponent continued to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

It didn't take long for a large number of Qing troops to appear opposite Weze. In the face of the depression that Wei Ze and his people were holding onto, the Qing army on the opposite side only sent hundreds of musketeers to line up with Wei Ze and them at a distance of about forty paces, and the musket teams on both sides held muskets and aimed at each other, but no one fired.

The Qing army forced Wei Ze with the musket team, and on the ten-pace-wide path behind the musket team, the retreating Qing army ran forward. Wei Changrong couldn't help but lean in, "Brigade Marshal, this ......, will you let the Qing demons go?!" ”

Wei Ze wanted to drive Wei Changrong back to prepare for the attack, but thinking that he needed to train officers who could take over the command, Wei Changrong was undoubtedly ranked first, and he explained: "The faster the Qing army ran and the more rain it rained, the more their guns could not be fired. And the faster they retreat, the more the Qing troops behind will want to run, just wait for them to ......"

Just as he was saying this, he saw a large banner with the word "Xiang" written on it running from behind the Qing army. Wei Ze didn't have time to explain, he said to Wei Changrong: "Go back to your team and prepare to charge!" ”

Wei Changrong took the order, and ran back to the spear team in three steps and two steps.

Near the banner of the word "Xiang", I am afraid that it is Xiang Rong and others. Wei Ze didn't want to have a hard fight with Xiang Rong, the current subordinates were all taught by Wei Ze with great effort, and this group of people will be the core of thousands of troops in the future, and they are the seeds of the future. So what Wei Ze was waiting for was the opportunity for Xiang Rong and the others to escape. The loss of troops in pursuit and hard fighting is completely different.

Sure enough, after the vanguard of the Qing army fled out, the follow-up troops ran faster and faster. The fighting spirit of the Qing army confronting Wei Ze was also greatly reduced, and many Qing troops began to look left and right.

"Ready to shoot!" Weeser shouted. The Taiping Army, whose will to fight was also much relaxed, tensed their nerves again.

A minute later, Wei Ze saw a group of Qing troops trying to quickly get through Guò to face Wei Ze's "danger zone", and one of them bumped into the Qing army with guns from behind, disrupting the Qing army's queue a little.

"Shoot!" The single knife in Wei Ze's hand swung down violently.

In the sound of gunfire, the slightly chaotic queue of the Qing army immediately became chaotic. The Qing army, who was in a hurry to flee, tried to flee even more after hearing the gunshots, trying to get out of the firing area as soon as possible. But the narrow road simply couldn't accommodate so many people, so the Qing army's musket queue was pushed from behind.

Some Qing soldiers subconsciously fired their guns at Wei Ze and others, and the musket team under Wei Ze was wearing water-stained robes, hats and straw hats, and the bullets failed to hurt anyone at all. And when the gunshots were heard at close range, the Qing army was even more chaotic.

At this time, the distance between the Qing army and Wei Ze was only 3o steps, and the four sections struck over, and the Qing army was already screaming. How could Weese let go of such a good opportunity, he shouted: "The third pawn continues to reload!" The second pawn for the spear, the first pawn, charge! ”

Wei Changrong had been waiting for this order for a long time, and after listening to Wei Ze's shout, Wei Changrong broke off and shouted: "Brothers of the first pawn, follow me!" ”

This is a very classic battle between the modern army and the Qing army, when the Qing army failed to overwhelm the opponent in the musket fire, and the opponent dragged the Qing army into a white-knuckle battle, the battle situation irreversibly unfolded in the direction of the Qing army's defeat.

Wei Changrong led more than 100 of his subordinates to rush forward in a horizontal line, and the Qing army in front of him was instantly stabbed down by the dense spears. The Qing troops who were not stabbed retreated again and again, and with a series of screams as they fell, dozens of Qing soldiers fell into the valley. In just a moment, Wei Changrong cut the Qing army's waist into two ends.

Wei Ze rushed forward with Wei Changrong's second pawn who had changed his spear, and when he saw a charge, he accomplished his goal, and he ordered Wei Changrong to chase down the Qing army that had fled out of the valley. The second pawn attacked the mountain. Soon the third pawn was also loaded, and Wei Ze ordered them to follow Wei Changrong down the mountain to kill.

The roar, the screams after being shot, the screams of falling off the cliff. In a matter of moments, the battle was in a fever pitch. Wei Ze also wanted to rush to the front line to lead his brothers to fight, the Taiping army's gun array was very neat, and round after round of stabbing forced the Qing army to flee to the mountain.

At this time, the shouting and killing behind the Qing army became louder and louder, and Yang Xiuqing, the king of the East, had annihilated the Qing army in the Dayuan Valley, and the Taiping army was like a mountain torrent, killing out of the valley.

The Qing army had no intention of fighting any longer, and they fled to other roads in the valley, and those who could not find a way struggled to climb the mountain wall. Some of the braver ones began to climb into the valley.

Ulantai did not spare any Taiping troops yesterday, and men, women, and children were killed by the Qing army led by him. Now the Qing army knows very well that there is only one way to die if it falls into the hands of the Taiping army, which is boiling with a vengeful heart. All the Qing troops were trying to escape.

The second pawn was Hu Chenghe, and Wei Ze finally dragged Hu Chenghe out of the team from Hu Chenghe, who was storming the mountain. Hu Chenghe had already thrown his coat and hat into nowhere, and a lot of blood was splashed on his face, collar and shoulders.

"Your second pawn is here, and I will take the musket team to chase the demon down the mountain." The earth-shattering sound of fighting echoed between the mountains and valleys, and Wei Ze shouted at both sides of his voice, and Hu Chenghe could hear it clearly.

Hearing this, Hu Chenghe immediately shouted anxiously: "Brigade commander, we have thrown away all the muskets, everyone is a spear, and there are no muskets." ”

Wei Ze didn't understand at first, and after thinking for a while, he figured out what Hu Chenghe was talking about. The second pawn was the musket team, and Wei Ze said that he led the musket team down the mountain to chase, referring to the third pawn who was still carrying the musket. Hu Chenghe was so confused that when he heard the musket team, he remembered that his troops only had spears in their hands.

Wei Ze shouted again at the top of his throat: "You take a second pawn for me now to resist with a spear, and I will now take the others down the mountain to chase the demon." Do you understand? ”

"Got it!" Hu Chenghe shouted, and then he pushed away the brothers who were blocking the way in front of him, and squeezed to the front with his spear.

Wei Ze looked at Hu Chenghe, who was on the rise of killing, and the spear team of the second pawn. On the mountain road, according to the training of the pikes, the troops formed a dense array, the first row was a spear stab, and the second row put the spears on the shoulders of the first row. The array of pikemen ran forward like a tank with dozens of barrels in front of it, without stopping.

If the Qing army's Chinese army did not flee to the bottom of the mountain, Xiang Rong could still command the Qing army to use a platoon of guns to deal with such a dense array of guns. But at this time, Xiang Rong had already fled down the mountain, and the remaining Qing army had no commander at all, so where was there still fighting spirit to speak of. If it weren't for the blockage of the road behind, they would have fled in all directions. Even if they were blocked on the mountain road, the Qing army would rather jump into the valley than resist desperately.

Seeing that the Qing army had no chance of turning the tide of the battle at all, Wei Ze yelled at Ke Gongyu, the third pawn, "Lead the team to chase me down the mountain!" ”

Ke Gongyu said hello, and the brothers of the third pawn began to pursue the Qing army with muskets.

On the mountain road down the mountain, the Qing troops all the way down, each of them was shot in the back. Wei Ze and the others jumped down from the mountain road, and a Qing army who fell in the middle of the road saw Wei Ze and others rushing down and tried to get up and dodge. The guy was shot in the thigh and only held up his upper body, but he couldn't crawl.

When Wei Ze passed by the Qing army, he continued to descend the mountain with the momentum of the mountain, and cut off the guy's head with a knife. The bald head with the tail of the money rat rolled down the mountain trail even faster than Wezeweizer had descended.

Looking from afar, I saw a group of Taiping soldiers holding spears and chasing a long group of Qing troops like ducks. That was the army led by Wei Changrong. The way down the mountain is easier to walk, Wei Changrong and they still have to kill the Qing army, after all, it is impossible to run with all their strength. After chasing for more than ten minutes, Wei Ze finally caught up.

The rain had stopped by this time, and the mountain road was slippery. Wei Ze and the others also had straw sandals on top of the military boots on their feet, and many straw sandals had already broken at this time. The military shoes sucked up the water and were also heavy to death. At this point in the battle, Wei Ze couldn't remember where he had run at all. However, as soon as he rushed into a new valley, Weser saw a lot of corpses appear in front of him. There was a thick smell of blood in the valley.

Wei Ze was stunned, when was there still a battle here? But if you smell it carefully, the bloody smell is not the kind of fresh blood, and there is already some ** smell in the bloody gas in this valley. Now Wei Ze understood that they had rushed to Longliao Ridge, where there was a bloody battle yesterday.

When I looked closely, the clothes of the corpses on the ground were indeed the clothes of the Taiping Army. Especially the long head of the man's corpse is definitely the Taiping Army. In any case, the Qing army did not have such a full head. Even if there is no special family relationship with these Taiping army rear army war dead. But Wei Ze still couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart. Like Wei Ze, the soldiers of the Taiping Army couldn't help but pay attention to these Taiping Army war dead, because they couldn't bear to trample on the Taiping Army war dead, and everyone couldn't help but slow down.

The Qing army did not have such concerns, they knew that if they ran slowly, it would be a dead end. No matter what they were stepping on, the Qing army ran forward frantically, and soon opened up the distance from the Taiping army.

Wei Ze saw that the troops were running slower and slower, and knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with the Qing army. He ordered a stop.

The troops slowly held their pace, looking at the corpses of their comrades, men and women, old and young. The Qing army had already run away at this time, and Wei Ze and the others also stopped their pace. The valley is quiet. The corpses everywhere showed how tragic yesterday's battle really was, with some of the Taiping brothers lying face up on the ground, clutching a stone in their hands. It turned out that before he died, he had to smash the Qing army with stones.

Wei Ze couldn't stand it anymore, he shouted: "Close! Return to the army! ”

Wei Changrong was out of breath, he ran over and said, "Brigade Marshal, let's rest and chase again." ”

Weeser shook his head, "No, we'll take the team." Don't take the mountain road this time, let's go through the valley! ”

"Why?" Marching Sima Zhang Yingchen also asked breathlessly, because there was no reconnaissance mission, Zhang Yingchen also joined the spear team with his brothers from the reconnaissance unit, and was temporarily under the command of Wei Changrong.

Wei Ze said viciously: "Some Qing demons jumped down the valley. The valley is not very steep, but I am afraid that some Qing troops will escape with their lives. Let's search along the valley, and we won't let go of a single demon. ”

Seeing the corpses of the Taiping Army brothers covered the Longliao Ridge Valley, Wei Ze's murderous intent not only did not relax, but became more intense.
