Chapter 141: Killing

Looking at those people who looked numb and only knew how to flee for their lives, Tie Mo was sad and angry.

"Wanqing, shout, let them run in both directions, who dares to rush at us again, kill! Tell to go down, maintain a good formation, as long as someone dares to rush into the formation, kill directly! ”

"Whoa!"

The people poured like a tidal wave into the front of the army, and to them it seemed that fleeing for their lives was everything, and there was no time for anything else. Li Wanqing shouted at the top of his voice, but it was useless. In desperation, Li Wanqing could only give the order to shoot.

After years of training, the musket captain had formed a conditioned reflex to the order, and as soon as the first of the team gave the order, they hid behind the shield wall and pulled the trigger.

A row of ..... Two rows of ..... After the burst of gunfire, hundreds of people fell in pools of blood, and the threat of death also made their minds completely come to their senses.

Finally, the crowd parted on both sides, and at this time, Yuan Ma had already led people to cover up. Due to the previous impact by the people, the shield wall in front was a little scattered, and if the opposition party took the opportunity to rush through the shield wall, the firepower advantage of the musket team would not be able to be brought into play.

Although the musketeers were all armed with new muskets and bayonets, they were not afraid of close combat. But melee combat, after all, is the last choice.

Zhou Dingshan's anxious head was sweating, and he yelled: "Quick, plug in the iron bar, the shield wall in front is stable, the first team of musketeers, come forward to help, and put the shield ..... in good place."

"Musketeers cover..... The second team, shoot ....."

Under the command of Zhou Dingshan, many musketeers stepped forward to help the shield bearer resist the shield and urgently inserted the iron bar. In this way, it can form a complete shield wall in front of the enemy army.

Bang bang bang gun, incessantly, the improved breech flintlock gun fire frequency and lethality have increased several times. A platoon of 100 people, only five platoons of musketeers, can exert unimaginable fire coverage and kill.

The chaotic party in the advance keeps people falling, they are not afraid of death, but people can't fight bullets after all. Many were not hit and lay on the ground wailing in pain.

The others, who did not care about their wounded companions on the ground, still rushed forward, and many died not under the guns of the officers and soldiers, but under the trampling of their companions.

Tie Mo was in the center of the gun array, and saw the death zone composed of bullets that the rebels were not afraid of casualties. Gradually, the scalp began to tingle, and sure enough, it was a group of wild beasts, not only eating people, but also being so cruel to their companions.

After paying huge casualties, the rebels finally crashed into the shield wall in front of them. After repeated impacts, they realized the horror of this row of shield walls.

The shield wall is higher and thicker than before, even if you hit it with your body, you can't hit the shield in front of you, and the shield after shield is as if it has been welded to death. At this time, the front of the shield wall was crowded with people, and the musketeers in the rear did not need to aim at all.

The ferocious thieves began to step on the shoulders of their companions and cross their shields, but not only swordsmen and muskets awaited them.

The fire gun in front of him was very strange, and the barrel of the gun was equipped with a sharp blade, and it stabbed a bloody hole in the body at once.

The casualties of the thieves increased dramatically, but the pressure on Tiemo's side was also much greater. As long as the thieves are not afraid of casualties, the shield wall will be attacked sooner or later.

Damn, it's really a group of cannibalistic beasts, and it's difficult to fight a war.

"Divide half of the men, retreat three miles, and form another attack formation. Here for another half an hour, when the time comes, give me a retreat! ”

Liu Guoneng gritted his teeth a little unwillingly and said: "In this case, our brothers at the forefront......"

"Hey, this is also something that can't be helped, if you continue to carry it hard, once the thieves break through the shield wall in front of them and rush into the formation, the advantage of the musket will not be brought into play. Really close combat, our numbers are too small, and we are no match for thieves at all! ”

In more than a year, Tiemo has already grown from an ignorant military household to an iron-blooded general. He knows that on the battlefield, he must be decisive, and sometimes he often chooses to sacrifice some people in order to win.

Liu Guoneng hurried to give the order, and a moment later, the musketeers and spare shieldmen in the rear urgently retreated. In order to gain enough time, the front five musketeers increased their reload and firing speeds.

The gunfire continued, and the death and blood did not stop the thieves, but only made them more ferocious.

Gradually, a trace of cold sweat oozed from Tiemo's forehead.

I have fought so many battles and met many opponents, but this is the first time I have encountered such a murderous opponent. The chaotic parties and rogues I encountered before, which one was not defeated or collapsed, which one was like Yuan Ma's people, the more people died, the more fierce the fight.

Liu Guoneng commanded the shield wall to regroup, the new phalanx was finally formed, and Tiemo also gave the order to retreat.

The order to retreat was given, and the soldiers in the battle retreated in turn, and once out of the battle, the girl ran back. But the shieldmen and musketeers at the forefront were not so lucky, even if they gave up their shields, they still couldn't get out of the battle quickly.

In just a quarter of an hour, the soldiers in the struggle were drowned in a wave of anger.

At this moment, Tiemo's heart was very painful, and in the blink of an eye, there were more than 300 lives, and he never thought that he would fight so hard when he entered the first battle in Shaanxi.

Tiemo is distressed, while Yuan Ma is heartbroken.

It took a full hour to break through the phalanx of officers and soldiers, and after a rough count, more than 2,000 brothers were killed and wounded. Most of the casualties among officers and soldiers intensified after the shield wall was broken.

It's not that I haven't encountered the firearms of officers and soldiers before, when did the firearms of officers and soldiers have such terrifying lethality?

Yuan Ma, who suffered heavy losses, did not clean up the battlefield and return to Mizhi City, but did not stop and continued to attack. It is a pity that they could not catch up with the officers and soldiers who fled, and these officers and soldiers were able to run very well one by one.

After chasing three miles forward, the terrible gunfire rang out again, and when he stopped to look, Yuan Ma couldn't help but wail in his heart.

The new phalanx, as long as it rushes to a distance of fifty zhang from the phalanx, is like crossing a death moat. It was as if the picture was replayed, countless people wailed, and the blood quickly stained the ground in sight.

Under this kind of ruthless harvesting, even the beasts that don't want to die will have a heart of fear, and a leader came to Yuan Ma, his hands trembling slightly, "Boss Yuan, do you still continue to fight?" The casualties of the brothers are too great, and if we continue to fight like this, even if we can destroy these officers and soldiers, we won't have a few people left....."

Yuan Ma didn't think about it, and shook his hand viciously, "Fight, send everyone up, bite this officer and soldier for me, Lao Tzu wants to make the living Yama King become the dead Yama King today..."

In this team, no one dared to question Yuan Ma's orders.

The reserve of more than 1,000 people left before was sent up by Yuan Ma's order.

"Crazy, really crazy..... They don't know it hurts? ”

Tiemo couldn't understand the thief in front of him, in his opinion, this was not a charge, this was looking for death.
