Chapter 361: I'm Not Fighting
For the cavalry of the Qing army, it is most suitable to start and accelerate from 30 zhang.
The distance is too close, the horse's speed can't go up, and the combat effectiveness is discounted. It's too far, it's a waste of horsepower, and these horses have to go up the mountain.
"Jump..."
Suddenly, a crater exploded in the ground. The person who stepped on it was directly blown off a leg, and the person was also lifted up. The two green-collar soldiers who happened to pass by the pit not far from were also directly killed by the explosion.
The surrounding Green Battalion soldiers didn't know what was going on, but the people who were running didn't think to stop.
The cavalry behind him also seemed to speed up.
"As long as we can pass through here and fight with the anti-thieves on the other side, we will be safe." Many of the running Green Battalion soldiers were all dissatisfied and hopeful.
However...
"Jump... Jump... Jump..."
The explosions kept ringing, and at the same time, people were constantly killed or blown up.
"Hong Zhen, get down quickly..."At this time, Ma Wu, who was running behind, immediately rushed forward and knocked down Hong Zhen who was in front and said.
"Big brother, what's going on? Why is there an explosion in the ground here? It's terrible, I don't want to die, I want to go home..."Hong Zhen, who was pressed to the ground by Ma Wu, said with tears on his face.
"Don't say so much about it, quickly drag the corpse next to you over and cover yourself, otherwise when the cavalry accelerates over, even if you are not killed by the things here, you will have to be trampled to death by them." Ma Wu did not answer Hong Zhen's question, but anxiously commanded Hong Zhen.
I saw that Ma Wu also hurriedly rolled to the corpse next to him at this moment, and pumped the corpse to cover himself.
The corpse on Ma Wu's body had just died, and the body was not stiff, and there was even blood flowing down Ma Wu's face.
However, Ma Wu did not show a trace of disgust at this time, and even more did not dare to find another corpse in any way.
Because the sound of the horse's hooves behind him was getting closer and closer, if he dared to move, he might be trampled to death by the cavalry who came.
Seeing this, Hong Zhen on the side did not dare to hesitate in the slightest. Hurriedly following Ma Wu's example, he rolled to the corpse on the side, and dragged the corpse to cover himself.
In fact, Ma Wu didn't know whether it was useful to cover the corpse on himself, and he also heard this method from a green battalion soldier who escaped back before, and he was still laughing at others at that time.
But I didn't expect the world to be so ironic. He used to laugh at other people's things, but now he has to go through them one by one.
"Drive..."
"Boom..."
The sound of the majestic horses galloping closer and closer.
At this moment, Ma Wu, who was lying on the ground, even felt that the ground was trembling. One can imagine how shocking the scene was when the cavalry charged.
"Driving... Drive..."
The shouts of the cavalry faintly reached Ma Wu's ears. Soon, Ma Wu felt that the huge cavalry formation was mainly splitting off on both sides of their Green Battalion formation, because Ma Wu only saw a few cavalry passing by him.
Speaking of which, this can be regarded as Ma Wu's luck, because the green battalion soldiers in front of Ma Wu are constantly stepping on the mines in front, the huge explosive force startles the cavalry behind them. So these cavalrymen subconsciously thought that the land where the Green Battalion soldiers were walking was unsafe.
Moreover, there were green battalion soldiers blocking the way in front of the Ma Wu area, which was not suitable for their cavalry to run and charge. So the cavalry bypassed their Green Camp and passed over to the safer land on either side of the Green Camp.
But even so, after being stepped on by a horse, Ma Wu also felt very uncomfortable. Even if the horse is trampled on a corpse.
When Ma Wu came back to his senses and thought about it, he couldn't help but shout gladly, if he hadn't been covered by the corpse on his body, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die!
The distance of thirty zhang is not far away, but it is not close. For some people who have been running for a long time, it is only a few breaths away.
However. Under the gunfire of the bandits, especially under the bombardment of mines under their feet. The more than 2,000 Green Battalion soldiers were left with less than 500 people left when they reached the barbed wire fence of the first line of defense of the bandit army.
The casualties of the green battalion soldiers in this formation are serious, which can be imagined.
However, after arriving at the barbed wire fence of the bandit army, these green battalion soldiers were even more desperate.
They originally thought that the thin barbed wire of the thieves would be split through after a few cuts with a knife, but they did not expect the barbed wire to be so difficult.
Several of the Green Battalion soldiers used all their strength, and after several slashes, they only cut a few wires, but they still failed to pass through the opening. But their close-range targets are accurate for the bandit army who are shooting and suppressing them.
"Smack..."
At this time, a green battalion soldier with a knife in his hand cutting barbed wire was hit and fell, and his eyes that were wide open before death were clearly expressing unwillingness.
"Another one, let you come and die."
At this moment, the soldier of the bandit army who had killed him turned around and hid back in the low wall, and continued to quickly reload the bullets.
At this moment, I heard another explosion around me.
"Jump..."
"Jump... Jump... Bouncing..."
The huge explosion was deafening, and even set off a huge wave of air, which dispersed a lot of gunpowder smoke from the bandit suppression army.
When the bandit soldiers loaded their bullets and were about to turn around and shoot, they saw that it was the cavalry of the Qing army who had also stepped on the mines buried outside.
In the huge cavalry charge formation, the mines buried in the ground seemed to have a chain reaction, and the explosions blew up the cavalry above on their backs, and the tragic situation was unbearable.
"Ahh
Seeing this, a green battalion soldier with resentment and unwillingness, holding the machete in both hands, as if he was going to make a final effort with the last strength of his body, desperately slashed at the barbed wire fence blocked by the bandits.
"Bang..."
The strength was so great that when the blade fell, several wires were broken in a row. But after a few swaying strokes of the barbed wire, the last of his strength was removed.
The gap was much larger than what others had cut, but it could only be done by pulling open the broken wires and stepping over them.
So it doesn't seem to have much effect.
"Don't fight, I won't fight, surrender, I surrender..."
The green battalion soldier, whose arm was numb from the barbed wire, threw the knife behind him, and the whole person fell to the ground, shouting.
"I don't fight anymore, I don't fight either, I surrender, I surrender..."
Another green battalion soldier next to him saw it, and he also threw away the knife in his hand and lay down.
And the moment he lay down, a bullet grazed the money sling's tail above his head. All of a sudden, a lot of hair fell on the ground.
