Looking at Liao Jieren's appearance, Geng Shangzhi was a little puzzled. According to the reason, Liao Jieren, as an assistant leader, would not be so distracted.

"My lord, it can't be said that the brothers are not desperate in this battle, but the other party is too strong." Liao Jieren came back to his senses at this time, and knelt down to Geng Shangzhi and said.

Geng Shangzhi asked Liao Jieren to get up and speak, and then asked him to continue.

"My lord, at that time, Li Hengfeng and I had already obeyed your instructions and moved forward carefully. However, the enemy did not know when to lay an ambush there. It popped up all at once. Before the brothers could react, a volley of gunfire rang out. ”

Bursts of gunpowder smoke filled the air in an instant. Bullets swept in like rain, and the brothers suffered many casualties at once. Liao Jie tried hard to recall the scene at that time, and he wished that Geng Shangzhi could watch it on the spot.

"This is how you coped with such a battle?" Geng Shangzhi continued to ask, quite unwilling in his heart.

"At that time, I discussed with Li Hengfeng, and this musket was the first shot on the battlefield. As long as the brothers rushed forward, they could only be used as burning sticks. Liao Jieren said

"Yes, that's right." Geng Shangzhi also affirmed Liao Jieren's point of view.

"So, I organized the brothers with Li Hengfeng to rush forward. Who would have thought that they had never broken the row of guns. The front of the whole valley was full of their musketeers, two or three hundred men in a row. The front row is played in the back row, and the back row is played in the back. Liao Jieren said with a sad and indignant face

Geng Shangzhi heard this, and also understood Liao Jie's difficulties. Even if he was there at the time, it wasn't necessarily much better. If there were no cavalry to harass them, it would have been difficult to break them through.

"It's not just hateful. By the time the brothers had paid hundreds of casualties, they were about to rush in front of the musketeers. In front of them, a number of soldiers with half-foot tall shields and spears appeared. ”

"If there were just spearmen, there would be nothing, but their platoon of guns still didn't stop. At this point, the brethren who rushed forward began to crumble. Liao Jie was very helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

Just as the brothers began to flee back, they heard the rapid sound of suona. Then there was what they shouted: there is a medical team when injured, and there is a sixth brother when he dies. ”

"At first, everyone didn't understand the meaning of these words. But after a while, I saw the enemy with muskets in hand rushing forward. They also had a short sword in front of the muzzle of their muskets. ”

When some of the brothers saw this, they wanted to turn around and fight back. Liao Jieren's eyes flashed slightly. But then he said in a more depressed tone:

However, the brothers who turned back and fought back were stabbed to death by them. They don't do one-on-one heads-up, they're all mixed together in teams of three or five. If one of them picks off your weapon, there will naturally be another person to set up the pose. The next thing is someone stabbing you in the body. ”

At first, the brethren did not understand the horror of this kind of fighting. It turned out that they were all in a three-on-one or five-on-one situation. Kill one and kill another, simply and neatly, without mercy. ”

"When I saw this not far away, I knew that we had lost this battle. So, I came over to find the adults to leave first..."

Liao Jieren said this, and slowly exhaled. Then he looked around at the soldiers of the Han Army who ran back with him, but it was a scene of "mourning all over the field".

Many of the soldiers of the Han Army kept wiping their tears, and even complained about Geng Shangzhi's meaning.

However, they forgot that when Geng Shangzhi said that after encircling and suppressing Zhang Rui, he would give each of them twenty taels of silver, and they cheered at that time.

Geng Shangzhi listened to all of Liao Jieren's statements, and he was quite emotional in his heart. He really didn't expect this Zhang Rui to be so powerful.

If he knew that Zhang Rui was so difficult to fight, Geng Shangzhi would not stupidly rush up to test his combat effectiveness no matter what.

But is this still the strength that a mud leg should have? From this point of view, his defeat of Yang Yingju and Sitku was not just "opportunistic".

I really hit the muzzle of the gun this time. It's okay to say anything at your own risk.

now

If there is regret medicine in this world and you need to cut yourself a few times as a price, Geng Shangzhi will not hesitate to cut himself several times.

"It's really a handful of rice that steals chickens, and this rice is not a small handful." Geng Shangzhi said sadly in his heart

……

"Sixth brother, we have won a great victory in this battle! The statistics are out. Forty-three brothers died, fifty-nine were seriously wounded, and one hundred and thirteen were lightly wounded. Among them, we killed 232 enemies, killed and wounded 187 enemies, and captured 110 enemies..."Wang Kaiyuan really said to Zhang Rui one by one at this time, looking at the data he knew

"Why do we kill and wound so many brothers?" After Zhang Rui heard his casualty data, he hurriedly asked unhappily

"This death was mainly caused by these musketeers and archers of the Han Army in the early stage, and their counterfire caused so many casualties on our side." Wang Kaiyuan inquired about what he understood

"Got it, you go and tell the presidents of each team. Say I have something to tell them, let them come over to my side. Zhang Rui said to the bandit team members around him

"Yes, Sixth Brother."

The five members of the bandit team around Zhang Rui replied one after another

"It seems that it is necessary to prepare some soldiers who give special orders, otherwise it will be inconvenient to give orders." Zhang Rui looked at the departing bandit team members and couldn't help but think
