Chapter 229: Stuck

"All the soldiers of the Green Battalion obey orders. Rush over, kill all the thieves, everyone will be rewarded, and those who dare to retreat will be killed. When the green battalion soldiers couldn't stop the retreating villagers, they only heard a loud order from behind the green battalion soldiers.

At this time, if the Qing army allowed this unfavorable situation on the battlefield to develop, the green battalion soldiers would definitely collapse with Xiang Yong, and all the previous casualties and efforts would be in vain.

As the order came from behind him, the green battalion soldiers and the villagers staggered past. Since the casualties of the battle in front were all carried by the villagers, the damage suffered by the green battalion soldiers was really minimal.

Between the staggered positions of the Qing troops, the distance between the two armies was once again shortened.

The musketeers obeyed the order and stepped back. The pikemen advanced. "Seeing the arrival of the Qing army that is getting closer and closer, the bandit army has also begun to change positions.

Originally, musketeers could also be replaced with bayonets for hand-to-hand combat, but after fighting for so long, muskets always had a lot of heat, which was not conducive to hand-to-hand combat.

It would not be cost-effective if the musketeers damaged the guns in hand-to-hand combat with bayonets at this time, after all, the muskets of the bandit army were not so extravagant that they could be destroyed "willfully". Unless it was a last resort, as long as there were pikemen, the bandit army did not need musketeers to give priority to fighting bayonets.

"Haha... The anti-thief musketeers retreated, and they were finally unable to hold on. Just rush over for hand-to-hand combat, and victory is at hand. Some of the Green Battalion generals who rushed to the front waved their sabers in their hands and shouted loudly to boost morale.

Not only these green camp generals, but also Fu Heng and others who were watching were also in a good mood.

"Who said that the firearms of anti-thieves are so powerful that their tactics can't be cracked? Under the leadership of the wise and brave, wise and martial General Fu, didn't we break the firearms of the anti-thieves? Zhang Zewu, the deputy general of the Green Battalion, said with a flattering smile on his face, but he turned a blind eye to the casualties all over the ground.

"Haha... Isn't. And I said, how powerful is this thief? It seems that they are nothing more than that, and I am worried in vain. Remove the firearms, where will these Nikans be the opponents of my Qing soldiers. I don't need my Eight Banners disciples to make a move, the Green Battalion soldiers are enough to deal with them. "Eight Banners Counselor General Atamu. He Yan also took the conversation with a big laugh. A happy dew, without the slightest intention of covering.

"What General He said is true." The chief soldier of the green battalion was also smiling, and his face echoed.

Although Atamu. He Yan didn't listen to what he said, but the situation was stronger than people. To be inferior is to be conscious. They are also people from the capital, and they are deeply loved by the emperor. If he didn't echo the smiling face, if he returned to the capital after the war and said a few unpleasant words in front of the emperor, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

"You guys, keep a low profile. The battle is not over yet, how can we take it lightly? Fu Heng looked at the people beside him who kept boasting about themselves, and said a little unbearably, with a lot of smiles in his words.

"Tiger..."

"Tiger..."

"Tiger..."

After the musketeers retreated, the pikemen behind them shouted in unison with their spear shields in hand, and marched forward in unison.

"Kill..."

The Green Battalion soldiers who rushed to the front saw that all the musketeers on the opposite side had retreated, and finally let go of the breath in the center. Shouting and running over to build up his courage.

At this moment, the pikemen of the bandit army have already set up a hedgehog array and are waiting for the arrival of the Qing army.

Rows of spears poking out from within the shield were neat and powerful, their cold heads glistening in the sunlight.

This array can be attacked and defended, and it is not easy to break.

However, at this time, it was no longer possible for the green battalion soldiers who rushed to the front to stop. Not to mention that there is a bandit army in front, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front, you have to rush over. If you stop hastily, you will either be hacked to death or overthrown and trampled to death.

In the Qing army, except for the Eight Banners, the weapons and equipment were more abundant and sophisticated. Most of the Green Battalion soldiers are monotonous.

Because the Green Battalion has always been regarded as a battlefield consumable, many of the Green Battalion soldiers who have been recruited have not even seen the generals who will lead them until the last day before the war.

It was also not taken seriously, so the Manchu court gave them either a Qing saber or a red tassel gun, and other messy weapons were extremely rare unless they were prepared.

As the saying goes, one inch is long and one inch is strong, and one inch is short and one inch is dangerous.

Did the Qing army have a red tassel gun array? The answer is yes. It's just that the Manchu Qing Dynasty was lucky, and since the Southern Ming Dynasty, they have not encountered more capable enemies. The enemies they encountered would only need to rush with the Green Battalion soldiers and the battle would be over. Therefore, the Manchus slowly became accustomed to not using guns, after all, there was no need.

The Green Battalion is dead, the corpses are thrown into the pile of dead, the weapons are retrieved, and new men can be recruited. Even if there are many deaths, how much loss does the court have? As long as the weapons are there, there are as many soldiers as there are soldiers.

However, the advantage of this kind of chaos is that it is easy to win and easy to lose. If you encounter a weaker enemy, you will win after a wave. But when it comes to a slightly stronger enemy, even 800 soldiers similar to Russia can't defeat it.

"Bell..."

One of the Green Battalion soldiers who rushed to the pikemen drew his machete and picked out a spear that was stabbing at him, thinking that he could not go any further.

"Poof... Burst... Poof..."

The sound of several spears entering the body came out, and the green battalion soldiers took a few steps back.

"Receive..."

"Thorn..."

"The shieldman withstands..."

With the mechanical voice of the bandit army on the opposite side, the green battalion soldier looked back again, and saw the Qing army falling in front of the shield of the bandit army. Blood flowed, staining the meadow red.

"Kill..."

The green battalion soldiers behind him were still shouting, but the killing in front of them frightened the people in front.

Originally, these green battalion soldiers thought that the thieves were just bullying people with firearms, and as long as they got close to hand-to-hand combat, they would be defeated.

But

Everything is different from what I imagined!

"Ahh Yes... Ahh

A green battalion soldier with a punctured stomach fell to the ground, holding his hand to his stomach and screaming loudly. The miserable scream frightened the Green Battalion soldiers beside him into retreating.

"What the hell are these mud legs?" Many people questioned it.

After a few rounds, the pikemen fought their way out of a vacuum. There is no way to get close, and there is no way to stop. Those who do not believe lie on the ground and do not move, they just howl there, and even keep retreating to save their lives.

"Shield forward..."

"Spearmen march..."

As the Green Battalion continued to retreat, the pikemen of the Bandit Army followed closely.

Rows of killings came side by side, and the bloody and tragic conditions of each made some of the Green Battalion soldiers unable to bear the fear in their hearts any longer. Many of the Green Battalion soldiers began to flee quietly.

This is the case with the left, center, and right military equipment, and the Qing army's rout has been achieved.

The generals of the Qing army, who were still laughing at the observation platform, were suddenly stuck at this time, standing there stupidly.
