Chapter 341: Movement Warfare

After a while, in the grove to the east, there were several gunshots, which were loud and noisy compared to the flint muskets that used bulk gunpowder, and these gunshots seemed a bit crisp and single, obviously Mauser rifles using metal cartridge bullets! So Xiao Yao knew that the squad in the east had discovered the enemy, and then began to hunt the opponent! Because Xiao Yao's order to them is to break it into pieces, then look for the enemy, and destroy the enemy before the enemy finds himself!

After a while, there were bursts of gunfire all around, including Mauser rifles, flint muskets, and even a few grenade explosions, accompanied by all kinds of screams! And Xiao Yao, who was at the commanding heights, also found a few Qi State killers hiding in the grass in the rifle binoculars in his hand, holding flint muskets, but looking nervous and overwhelmed, so Xiao Yao did not hesitate to aim the muzzle of the gun at his forehead, and then decisively pulled the trigger!

Because the development of the plot is completely different from what Wei Xiangyuan predicted, these killers hiding in the shadows didn't expect that before they could attack, the other party suddenly shot at them, did they already know in advance that they were ambushing them here? And they have been hiding in these bushes and haystacks, but they are still discovered by the other party, how do they see themselves?

The companions around him were injured and fell to the ground, but the killers still couldn't see each other's figures at all, even if they wanted to shoot in the direction of the gunshot, but now there were chaotic sounds everywhere, so that although these killers who had already got the flintlock half a year ago, but because of the shortage of gunpowder and could not carry out shooting training, they didn't know how to listen to the sound to distinguish the direction, how to aim at the target at three points and one line, and even some people were so frightened that their hands trembled: is this us ambushing them, or are they ambushing us!

Wei Xiangyuan was also a little panicked by this sudden attack, and shouted in his heart: I didn't expect that this assassination operation of mine had been recognized by Xiao Yao in advance, and he underestimated the enemy, it was really too light on the enemy!

Since Gao Changgong led them to defeat the invincible infantry battalion on the Huainan battlefield, they have restored the arrogance of the Qi soldiers who looked down on these southern armies before, and came to Jinling to see Xiao Yao being deposed and removed by the emperor of Chen State.

So Wei Xiangyuan underestimated the enemy, he thought that Xiao Yao had begun to fall willingly, he had lost the murderous aura of being a soldier on the battlefield, and now he was like a waste man who could only eat, drink and have fun, and there was nothing to be afraid of! And now he has those powerful firearms snatched from Xiao Yao in his hands, so he has always thought in his heart that this assassination of Xiao Yao can definitely be successful!

But it wasn't until Xiao Yao's guns rang out, and his subordinates were knocked to the ground before they could make a move, that Wei Xiangyuan came to his senses, it turned out that all this was a play played by Xiao Yao, and he deceived all their enemies! Xiao Yao was drunk and dreamed of death in Jinling City, and also held a poetry conference that attracted thousands of people, so that everyone's eyes followed Xiao Yao to stay in Jinling City, but he forgot that Xiao Yao's subordinates all went to Jiangcheng, and his master was still in Jiangzhou!

"This Xiao Yao is really cunning, he is too cunning! He already knew that we were going to ambush him here, and then prepared in advance, and now they ambushed us! But it's no wonder that we've always lived in his general casino, and their every move has been monitored by them for a long time, and I'm so underestimated! Yu Xiangyuan slapped himself hard.

However, Wei Xiangyuan is Gao Changgong's right-hand man, his psychological quality is still very good, and he has experienced a hundred battles and has seen many big scenes, so he quickly calmed down, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, don't be afraid!" There are only twenty of them, and we have more than a hundred brothers, and we are all using such powerful muskets, and we can completely destroy them! According to the original plan, all of them will attack! ”

After speaking, Wei Xiangyuan picked up a Sui musket and took the lead in rushing out of the woods, followed by dozens of killers who were also holding Sui muskets, but they ran for a while, but they still couldn't find those opponents who had been hidden, so they could only shoot at the surroundings and shoot wherever there was movement!

The opponent has a numerical advantage, so it is necessary to avoid close contact with the opponent and attack from a distance, this is the tactic that Xiao Yao asked this guard to execute! Shih Tzu literature

Therefore, seeing that Wei Xiangyuan rushed out like crazy, and there were many of them, even if the Mauser rifle in his hand was faster than their muskets, it was a little too much to deal with, so the various detachments of the guard immediately retreated and hidden, and then fired at these obvious targets wantonly.

Moreover, Wei Xiangyuan still retains the tactical thinking of the outnumbered people in the era of cold weapons, and many killers are unconsciously close together, so the team immediately threw a few grenades at them, "bang", the crowd was blown up, and the killers were all blurred with blood, either dead or wounded!

"Get down! Don't stand up and be a live target for them! Don't lean together, their bombs are too powerful, spread out, everyone spread out! Wei Xiangyuan also immediately came to his senses, and then shouted a loud order, and his heart was even more shocked, what kind of battle is this, why can't he even see the shadow of the other party, but he has been shot dozens of people by the other party, how did this Xiao Yao develop such a tactic!

This is sports warfare!

In order to carry out Xiao Yao's tactics of keeping a long distance from the enemy to attack, the guards must always run, even if they are lying on the ground, they must change places with one shot, so that the enemy cannot judge their position at all, and then destroy the enemy's living force step by step.

In less than half an hour, more than half of the more than 100 killers led by Wei Xiangyuan have been shot by Xiao Yao with a guard of only twenty people, and in the combat position, the remaining fifty or so killers have been surrounded by Xiao Yao's small detachments scattered in four directions, and the gunfire is getting louder and louder, which means that the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer, and the scope of this encirclement is getting smaller and smaller!

Even though Wei Xiangyuan wanted to use the sub-mother cannon to bombard the opponent, he found that the other party no longer seemed to be approaching, deliberately kept a certain distance from him, and then deliberately surrounded himself in the middle, waiting for him to run out of ammunition!

"What kind of battle is this? Why is it that everyone uses this musket, but they can shoot us, but we can't even determine where they are, and if this continues, sooner or later we will be killed by them one by one! Wei Xiangyuan said anxiously.

"My lord, my brothers don't usually have the opportunity to use these muskets, so we have no idea what tactics these muskets need to use to exert their true power! And these firearms were all invented by Xiao Yao, I heard Zhang Dabao say that Xiao Yao usually lets his subordinates train different tactics in different environments, so now of course we can't win Xiao Yao who came prepared! My lord, it is impossible for us to assassinate Xiao Yao today, before they have completely surrounded us, let's retreat quickly, if it is a little later, we will be surrounded by them here! The deputy persuaded Wei Xiangyuan.

"This, thanks to the fact that we have gathered so many brothers, and brought these firearms to ambush Xiao Yao, I wanted to treat Xiao Yao in the same way as others! Now let alone kill Xiao Yao, we haven't even killed one of his men, but we have already lost so many brothers, if we retreat like this, we are really too nestish! Wei Xiangyuan said unwillingly.

"My lord, now is not the time to be rash, the task entrusted to us by the prince is not to make these senseless sacrifices here in order to kill Xiao Yao! I know that the adults are worried about Prince Chen's side, afraid that he will not fulfill his promise! But now that we have lost so many brothers, I believe that Prince Chen has nothing to say, and if we all fall into the hands of Xiao Yao, then our deal with Prince Chen will be discovered, so Prince Chen will definitely try his best to let us leave Jinling City and then disassociate ourselves from him! The deputy said bitterly.

"What an unwillingness! Why is God still on Xiao Yao's side, why do we have so many chances, but we can't kill this Xiao Shilang! Fall back! Everyone retreats immediately! Wei Xiangyuan had a tearless expression on his face, and shouted depressedly.
