Chapter 5: Weeser (5)

For those troops who dare to fight, weapons are the foundation of their victory. For the defeated soldiers who fled for their lives, weapons were an obstacle to their survival. On the official road leading to Yong'an City, the collapsed Qing army's grain transport team threw down heavy muskets and obstructive spears, turned their backs to the pursuing Taiping army, and cried for their fathers and mothers to flee for their lives.

On the potholed official road, some Qing soldiers were lucky enough to run away, and some accidentally fell to the ground. The Qing army that fell down tried to get up and run again, but was trampled on by the Qing army that fled behind. The guy who fell to the ground screamed in pain when he was trampled on, but he couldn't get up.

These Qing troops were followed by the relentless guns of the Taiping army. Needless to say, Wei Ze can solve the life of a Qing army with one shot. Wei Changrong, whose marksmanship is not so accurate, can calmly stab the vital point of the Qing army at this time, and the killing degree is greatly improved.

Flee and kill. There are also those who rush to the bloody battlefield.

From the very beginning of the battle, Zhang Yingchen could not say that he did not work hard. The excitement of the battle completely controlled Zhang Yingchen, and he was looking for an opportunity to attack like crazy. But killing the enemy is not something that can be done with passion, because of his lack of combat experience, Zhang Yingchen has never been able to achieve any results. When Zhang Yingchen was a little sober and tried to catch up with Wei Ze and them, what Zhang Yingchen saw was Wei Ze's figure charging bravely in front of rows of black holes.

Zhang Yingchen's heart rose to his throat, and he didn't even scream. He never dreamed that there would be someone in this world who could be so brave. Admiration is admiration, Zhang Yingchen thinks that Wei Ze is dead this time. The exhibition of the matter was once again unexpected by Zhang Yingchen, Wei Ze blocked the musket with his bare hands, and killed the Qing army with only one person's bravery.

Zhang Yingchen had heard Wei Changrong boast of Wei Ze's bravery many times, and Zhang Yingchen was skeptical about this. Zhang Yingchen was born in the Heaven and Earth Society, and he used to travel from south to north, and he didn't meet as many famous characters as he met. It wasn't until he saw Wei Ze's heroic posture in battle that Zhang Yingchen knew that some people were better than being famous.

After Wei Ze dispersed the enemy's array, the old Taiping soldiers who followed Wei Ze launched a merciless slaughter of the Qing army. Zhang Yingchen was deeply shocked by the battle, and there was no longer the slightest fear in his heart, and a high-spirited courage overflowed in Zhang Yingchen's chest at this time. He chased after him with his spear, full of only the idea of joining the battle as soon as possible and killing the demons with his boss and comrades.

In front of the corpse-strewn array, a Qing soldier who had just fallen staggered up and prepared to flee for his life. Zhang Yingchen was already panting for a long time, and his violently beating heart showed signs of wanting to jump out of his throat, Zhang Yingchen was still holding a gun, and stabbed at the Qing soldier's vest that was slashed in the back, and the military uniform on his back was soaked with blood. After the tip of the spear pierced into the enemy's body, it was blocked by something, and Zhang Yingchen didn't care what blocked the tip of the spear, he used all the strength of his body to dig the spear deep into the vest of the Qing army.

The Qing soldier let out a miserable scream, and the whole person fell forward weakly. Zhang Yingchen stabbed to death the first enemy in his life. Struggling to pull out the spear, Zhang Yingchen gritted his teeth, raised the spear high, and stabbed it with all his strength at another dying Qing soldier on the ground.

The imperial guard Colondo looked solemnly at the battlefield in front of him, he had been following the minister Cezanne, and had never seen the rebels in Guangxi with his own eyes. The Manchu Qing sent a total of nearly 50,000 troops to encircle and suppress the Taiping army in Guangxi, but they were defeated one after another. Colondo has never understood why the official army has been defeated repeatedly, everyone has two arms and two legs, and the equipment of the official army is much stronger than that of the rebels, why can they never win in the face of the rebels? Various official documents say that the traitor is quite capable of fighting, and Colondo does not believe in this too much.

Seeing the attack of the twenty thieves in front of him, Colondo finally believed that the thieves were indeed brave. The officers and soldiers can't say that they don't do their best, but the bravery of the group of rebels in front of them is Cheng Dù written in the official document. But it wasn't enough to make Colondo flee like the Qing troops of the grain caravan. Colondo pulled the reins, and the seated war horse circled in place. Just as Colondo was about to personally lead the team to meet the traitors, Wang Feixiong, another imperial guard next to him, grabbed Colondo's reins first. Facing Cologdo's grim gaze, Wang Feixiong said loudly: "Brother Cologdo, let my brother and I take the lead with my own soldiers." ”

Cologon thought for a moment and replied, "It's okay, Brother Wang, you have to be careful." After speaking, Colondo took out the single knife on his waist and handed it to Wang Feixiong. This is a good knife specially awarded to the imperial guards, Wang Feixiong wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he understood Cologondo's kindness. Although the gang of rebels in front of them were brave, they had no firearms. Cologdo's knife was extremely sharp, and it was easy to cut through the spear of a traitor. At this time, as long as the momentum of the rebels can be stopped and a little time can be gained, Colondo can reorganize the remaining Qing troops in the front team and launch an attack on the rebels.

Thinking of this, Wang Feixiong took the single knife, turned over and dismounted, called the minister Cezanne to give the personal soldiers of the imperial guards, and strode towards Wei Ze and them.

Wei Ze had already sensed that something was wrong with this Qing army at this time. Defeating the rear of the Qing army and defeating the Chinese army of the Qing army, the process of the two engagements was normal, and the green battalion of the Qing army fully demonstrated the combat ability that they should have. What is abnormal is that these Qing army's Chinese troops have always been in a strict formation, and they can continue to attack in a situation of defeat after defeat.

Needless to say how effective these attacks were, the fact that they were able to attack showed that the commander of this Qing army saw through the weakness of Wei Ze's too few troops. If the Qing army can attack one or two more times, Wei Ze and they are afraid that they will not even have the strength to escape.

Fighting to this point, Wei Ze and they had no other choice. If you retreat at this time, you won't be able to grab much loot. Since the Qing army is still in order, once they follow the pursuit, the Taiping army, which is carrying a pile of booty, will definitely not be able to resist. At present, the only way to go is to completely defeat the Qing army and drive them out of the battlefield. And Wei Ze firmly believes that as far as the Qing army's current table is concerned, if he can't come up with his hole cards, Wei Ze can lead his brothers to persevere. Even if this group of Qing troops fought to the last soldier with their current combat effectiveness, Wei Ze and the others still had at least a fifty percent chance of winning.

When Wei Ze saw the small troops sent by the Qing army to counterattack again, he knew that the Qing army was also going to fight hard. When he saw Wei Yi wearing a striking yellow coat, Wei Ze was even more surprised. The one wearing the yellow jacket should come from the capital, and in Wei Ze's imagination, the yellow jacket from the capital is equivalent to an incompetent person and a timid mouse. There is still a yellow coat in the capital that can persist in fighting in the chaos? Weeser really didn't believe it.

It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, the important thing is that as long as Wei Ze is not an auditory hallucination now, the yellow jacket that led the team has already carried a knife and rushed over the defeated soldiers. Crossing the gap of the defeated army, Wei Ze saw that the Qing army, which had greatly shrunk in size, also wore yellow jackets.

Wei Ze's left hand had returned to normal at this time. Since the Qing army insisted on the method of constantly meeting the attack, Wei Ze could only adhere to the established tactics of hand-to-hand combat to defeat the enemy. Due to the small number of Wei Ze's subordinates, the Qing army's method of attacking in batches could not even be said to be an inefficient tactic of adding fuel.

Without waiting for the yellow coat on the opposite side to rush closer, Wei Ze strode forward to meet it, and with a shock of his arm, he danced a spear flower at the yellow coat. The previous owner of the possessed body was also called Wei Ze, although he was only 19 years old, he was a guy who had been practicing literature and martial arts since he was a child. There is nothing shocking about that bit of culture, but this kung fu is really powerful. The Spear Flower is one of the tricks in the arts, and its usefulness in large-scale battles is very limited. But when you go heads-up, the function of this scaffolding is revealed. If the yellow coat's attention is attracted by the spear flower, at the moment of slight distraction, Wei Ze can go up and stab the yellow coat to death.

Things did not go according to Wei Ze's imagination, the yellow jacket is also a practitioner who knows goods, and when he saw Wei Ze's posture, he actually took a few steps back, handed the knife to his left hand, and took out a pair of double-barreled handcuffs from his waist with his free right hand.

"I'm cāo your mother!" At this time, Wei Ze couldn't help but curse again in his heart, he was really shocked. At first glance, this double-barreled handcuff looks like a product imported from a foreign country. Now the distance between the two sides is only three or four meters, and if they are hit by a handcuff at this distance, they will definitely be killed or injured. But at this time, if you pounce on it, you will hit the muzzle hard, and the hit rate of the opponent's shot will be greatly improved.

Just when Wei Ze was in a dilemma, he heard the sound of the wind, and it turned out that Wei Changrong had made a move. After killing the Qing army in front of him, Wei Changrong's attention also fell on the unusually eye-catching yellow coat on the battlefield. Even if he hadn't seen a double-barreled handcuff, Wei Changrong knew that it was a firearm. Because of the distance from the yellow coat, Wei Changrong threw the spear in his hand as a javelin at the yellow coat.

The yellow coat's kung fu was not weak, even if he was attacked by this sudden attack, he still did not panic, the single knife in his left hand was picked up, and the spear that Wei Changrong threw was actually cut in two.

Where would Weese let go of this opportunity, he also threw his spear with all his might. Wei Ze's strength is much greater than Wei Changrong's, and the spear is fast and accurate. In an instant, it flew to the chest of the yellow coat, which was extremely stable, and at this critical moment, he tried to turn his upper body, which avoided the vital point of the chest. However, Weese's spear still stabbed the yellow coat's right arm. At this time, the yellow coat could no longer hold the double-barreled handcuff in his right hand. But this guy was really ruthless, he gritted his teeth, swung the single knife in his left hand, and slashed the shaft of Weezer's spear along the head of the spear.

Seeing such a ruthless person, Wei Ze even admired it a little. This kind of thing has appeared in the movie, but when you see it with your own eyes, it is still full of shock. The yellow coat's response was very correct, and if he pulled out his spear at this time, it would immediately be the result of blood spraying. If you don't care about this spear, the barrel of the spear is falling heavily, and the guy can't move at all. Even if you force the bullet, the wound will be opened by the spear, and it is easier to die at that time. Cutting off the heavy barrel of the gun and leaving only the lightest gun head on the body is already the best way to deal with it.

Such a guy can't be let go, at this time Wei Ze has no spear in his hand, and when the Qing army spearmen fled, they threw a lot of spears in their hands. Wei Ze casually picked up a spear from the ground, and prepared to go up to deal with the heroic yellow coat.

At this moment, someone in the forest on the side of the official road suddenly shouted in Cantonese accent: "Kill!" Kill the demons! "It's not just shouting, someone is hitting the trees and grass with sticks, and there is a lot of movement. According to the original plan, Wei Ze's subordinates were divided into two routes, and Wu Changlin Asheng took eight brothers with five muskets to ambush in the woods, and when it was time to rush and kill, they suddenly shouted and bluffed to put more psychological pressure on the Qing army. It's only now that they've come up with this, thinking it's because the arena is moving too fast. The official road is potholed, and it takes more time to walk through the forest.

This timing can't be said to be bad, and more importantly, Lin Asheng and they brought five arquebuses. After shouting for a while, they released a round from behind the grass and trees against the chaotic Qing army on the official road, and even if it did not cause any damage to the Qing army, it made the Qing army even more frightened. At this time, even the Qing army, which was originally regarded as a strict lineup, was a little shaken.

Just as Wei Ze was about to continue to charge and kill, the few people who followed behind the yellow coat stepped forward to protect the yellow coat. Wei Ze didn't dare to rush forward too rashly, if those few followers also suddenly took out their double-barreled handguns, Wei Ze was not an invulnerable King Kong indestructible body. But the yellow coat did not insist, and said a few words to the entourage of the soldiers, and the soldiers escorted the guy back.

The battle was unfavorable, and they encountered suspicious soldiers, and the Qing army, which had always been quite capable of fighting, finally gave up their plan to continue fighting with Wei Ze. The Qing army's Chinese army had already gathered the rout on the official road, and began to retreat in an orderly manner before the morale of the entire army was completely shaken. What Wei Ze admired was that the guy in command of the Qing army's Chinese army could still let the Qing army's musketeers lay down an array and force their positions with muskets when they retreated.

The Qing army began to retreat, but Wei Ze could not take the troops and began to retreat. It was not easy to overwhelm the Qing army with weak forces, and what was needed at this time was to maintain this psychological advantage. If Wei Ze led the people to retreat, the Qing army that reluctantly retreated would only be able to regroup and start pursuing, and those brave battles in front would be tantamount to being lost. A few steps forward to pick up the double-barreled handcuffs and single knives dropped by the yellow jacket, Wei Ze and his brothers stood on the official road and shouted at the retreating Qing army. Because of the young man's temperament, and seeing that there was a yellow jacket in the other party's array, Wei Ze first scolded in Hakka, and then changed his usual Hakka dialect, and scolded in a Beijing accent, "You bunch of rabbits!" Your grandma's! I'm cāo your uncle! After scolding, Wei Ze laughed at the Qing army.

In 1852, it was almost impossible to hear such authentic Beijing dialect in Guangxi, and Wei Ze struggled to shout and curse at the top of his throat, and even the retreating Qing troops could hear it clearly. After shouting, I saw a slight fluctuation in the Qing army's formation. However, the Qing army still maintained order, still guarding the first half of the grain team, and continued to retreat in an orderly manner along the official road away from Wei Ze and others.

After the distance between the two sides exceeded two hundred meters, Wei Ze immediately led his brothers to run towards the pack team that was trying to escape from the rear of the Qing army. The Qing army in the rear team had already run away without a trace, but the horse gangs transporting military rations felt sorry for the horses, and they tried hard to hold the horses one by one.

"We're not going to kill you!" After catching up with the pack caravan, Weser stood beside a pack horse and casually comforted the groom, who was like a sifting chaff, and as he spoke, he had already untied the not-so-large bag in the bamboo basket on the horse's back. Be sure to have salt! Be sure to have salt! Weser prayed in his heart.

Both bags were filled with black powder, and without looking too closely, it was gunpowder. Then I opened another bag, and it was also gunpowder. And Wei Changrong, who was inspecting another pack horse next to him, had already shouted excitedly, "This is salt." Everyone looked at Wei Changrong in surprise, only to see that Wei Changrong didn't dare to believe himself, and pinched a small pinch of white things and put them in his mouth. Then the whole face wrinkled. "It's really salt!" Wei Changrong smashed his mouth and smiled happily.

Everyone was overjoyed at this moment, no matter what the brothers were panting for, Wei Ze ordered everyone to try their best to take as much as possible. The brother in charge of the answer had already brought hemp rope over, and everyone knew that they had to be quick at this time. Tie two cloth bags with twine, and put them on your shoulders to carry two.

Wei Ze didn't bother to look for anything else, he shouted to his excited subordinates: "Get all the demons' shoes off." Don't straw sandals! ”

This reminder is really timely, after all, it is the Qing army, and these people all have military boots on their feet, that is, these military boots are made of cloth, which are much better than these straw shoes on Wei Ze's feet. The warriors immediately went wild, and each of them was able to get a pair. Wei Changrong's straw sandals and shoelaces were broken, so he simply sat on the ground, took off his straw sandals, and directly replaced them with Qing Jun's boots. Standing up and taking two steps, Wei Changrong smiled: "This is really good. ”

Wei Ze didn't want to let his brother get sè at this time, he shouted: "Retreat! ”

One bag weighed about ten pounds, and Wei Ze asked each brother to bring four. He brought six with him. Wei Changrong walked at the end, only to see that he also carried four cloth bags on his shoulders, just walked a few steps, but turned back and threw away the two bags, and then picked up several large pieces of bacon brought by a pack horse and carried them on his shoulders, and then rushed into the forest quickly. Seeing Wei Changrong take bacon, there was immediately a burst of cheers in the ranks of the Taiping Army.

When the distance between the two armies was more than a mile, Wei Ze immediately ordered: "Withdraw quickly!" Wei Ze urged repeatedly. In the blink of an eye, the roles of the two sides on the battlefield were reversed. The Qing army became the pursuers who had not yet begun the pursuit, and Wei Ze and the others became the fugitives who were fleeing.

The road to retreat was prepared a long time ago, and no matter how the Qing army responded, Wei Ze led his brothers on the road back to Yong'an City.
