The gap between man and man is greater than the gap between man and pig.

In the same way, such a horse is naturally very vigorous, walking on the avenue, very fast, even the speed of his companions can not catch up with it, can only barely pull it.

When returning, it will not return the same way, but take a more comfortable road, there is no so-called highway on the grassland, and naturally rely on various old drivers to lead the way.

Of course, such a march naturally cannot be based on comfort alone, and those difficult roads should be patrolled more often.

Hu Sanqi is looking forward to returning to Zhangjiakou, he can go out for activities, and there are all kinds of good days in the city.

When it was time to have lunch, everyone found a place to rest, Hu Sanqi had just received his share of roast mutton, and was thinking about eating, when suddenly a huge sound came out from afar, and at the same time, there was a red flash in the sky, but there was a spark shot into the sky, and Hu Sanqi was very familiar with it, it was released by his own people.

It's a call for help.

Seeing this signal, almost all the staff mobilized, although Hu Sanqi didn't understand the situation, the squad leader was shouting to stop eating, and then look at the situation.

Not only the fireworks calling for help, but also the sound of "dong dong" gunfire in the distance, very dense, the company commander's face was not good, could it be that a certain brother unit was attacked?

Who was so bold and dared to attack the railway detachment? You know, although they can only be considered light infantry, the rain of bullets from hundreds of rifles is enough to tear apart any small enemy, and the large group of enemies who want to gather here will not escape their eyes.

The company commander is a person who makes decisions on the spot, and the railway detachment takes turns on duty, and there are people who will protect the surveyors to survey the railway site, which is very important.

He looked at it and immediately ordered that, except for Hu Sanqi's squad, the other squads would spread out the combat section and scatter to see the situation.

A company can spread out almost a mile wide, which is at least infantry, and their mobility is stronger, and their combat method is to use mobility and advanced weapons to search for the enemy, make contact, find out the truth and reality, and then penetrate little by little.

This requires long-term training, and it is not something that a few people can do with target shooting.

You need to have a minimum of education first, know how to draw and read maps, and then it seems that the head coach of the basketball team is holding a board on the side and teaching those non-commissioned officers and students from the most basic place.

These things need to be honed for a long time.

Of course, the elders of later generations came from a time when they were in fact quick to discard these things and focus more on how to wash the floor.

Fortunately, their enemies are all weak chickens among weak chickens, and with such a weapon advantage, the railway detachment has established its prestige on the steppe.

Hu Sanqi and the others left the guards to guard the baggage, but they didn't hurry to drive the carts together, made a defensive formation, and then let those gift-giving teams stand aside as protection.

The men of the Yan family in the team came over to ask what was going on, and the squad leader heroically raised his rifle in his hand and said some comforting words.

Hu Sanqi looked at the horse, this white horse was really good-looking, the whole body was white, without a trace of variegation, it looked unique in the middle of a group of horses that were dirty by the wind and sand, but Hu Sanqi thought more about whether this horse would eventually belong to a certain elder.

For a long time, it was just that before coming to the new troops, when reporting on the military parade, the elder of the parade on the rostrum, and afterwards, the elder went to some troops to shake hands and comfort, but he did not meet Hu Sanqi.

If he goes back this time and some elder comes to receive the horse, will he have a chance to take revenge?

After a long time, after receiving the good life of the imperial capital, Hu Sanqi's hatred for the elders has begun to decrease, and it has been replaced by an unfair indignation, why can't he help the Hu family? Help the Hu family, let the Hu family live such a life, Hu Sanqi is also willing to be a soldier to repay the imperial capital.

It's just that he killed some homeless people who are not as good as pigs and dogs, and he encountered such a fate, Hu Sanqi felt wronged, how many years have been like this, how many Confucian and upright people have not done this.

If there is a chance, you can use a gun to restrain an elder, he wants to ask, why is it so unfair to my Hu family, the Ming Dynasty gave the Hu family tax exemption and exemption, and let those inferior people do whatever apportionment, why can't they cooperate with the Hu family to kill the poor.

Occasionally alone, crying alone in the toilet, Hu Sanqi couldn't help sobbing, he learned a little military science, and he also generally knew the military structure of the imperial capital, and what was the position of his hometown.

At present, the elders do not have a direct garrison in Shandong, but through various means, they have established absolute authority, and both black and white have recognized the various activities of the elders in Shandong, such as surveying and mapping.

The situation at that time, that is, the Hu family was really unlucky.

Looking at this horse, imagining those elders, Hu Sanqi was a little confused, and suddenly, a voice came from a distance, it was smoke and dust, but the direction was the opposite of the direction where the squadron leader went, it was a huge number of horse teams!

At first, it was just smoke, but slowly, the centaurs began to appear, and soon surrounded the position of the squadron salute at a long distance.

The squad leader shouted: "It's a disaster, this is a tiger who has been transferred from the mountain!" ”

Thinking of this, he immediately opened fire and blew the whistle at the same time, hoping to call out to the squadron leader for reinforcements.

But the squadron leader seemed to have run too far and never heard back, while the horse thieves approached.

The Yan family in the team was running outside the mouth all the year round, listening to the voice in the horse team, but said: "It's bad, they came to this horse, thinking that this horse is a tribute, and whoever gets it is the master of the grassland, this is not ......."

They just want to curry favor with the imperial capital.

The squad leader became nervous, there was only one squad left in the whole squadron, plus a few people who were not in very good condition, a dozen or so people, according to the reserve of 100 rounds of ammunition per person, more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition, if they could hit 100 rounds, they could still repel these enemies.

But how is this possible, in fact, after being semi-surrounded, these horse thieves only need to be on all sides, endure the pain of the gunshot, and can rush to the front.

There are a lot of people in line to be shot, and this great plain is unobstructed, and it is impossible to resist at all.

In fact, he doesn't know how to do it now, if the squadron leader is still there, more than a hundred guns are lined up in several teams, so that a horse team of a thousand people is not enough to see, but he only has so many people left.

But the squadron leader never heard back, which had to make him anxious, whether to abandon the baggage and go to the squadron leader for help, or?

Hu Sanqi looked at the approaching enemy, as well as those Mongolians who looked at the Mongolian who were holding sharp blades and had superb equestrian skills, he was scared at first, he didn't know what was happening, but he was already panicking, and suddenly saw the big white horse near the left, and suddenly thought of a crazy idea.

"If I ride this horse away, will I be able to take revenge on the elder?"

This kind of thinking is getting stronger and stronger, at this time, the men in the squad are all nervously looking at the enemies who are surrounding them, and want to shoot, but the number of people is so small, how to fight has not been calculated at all.

According to the calculations of the Council of Elders, due to the lack of border defenses, although a large number of thousands of horses would be quickly discovered if they came, it would be difficult to detect if there were only a thousand men running over, but a team of hundreds of Mauser guns could almost chase down the ancient armies that were not maintained by these sabers and had short bows of only a few tens of meters.

But the Soldier's Code of Conduct never said what a squad of soldiers should do in the face of a hundredfold enemy.

"Shoot closer, aim at the horses, kill the horses, they are all dead!"

A knockdown of a horse means that the formation is broken, and each person is equipped with three grenades as standard, which is also a sharp weapon in melee combat, so fight hard......

"Hu Sanqi, open the ammunition box and divide the grenades for everyone,, Lao Tzu fights!"

It's really unlucky, it's only been a few days since I met this one, but I should still work hard, I can't eat the food and salary given by the elders in vain.

The squad leader turned his head, but saw the most surprising scene.

Hu Sanqi jumped on the horse, but he rode on the tall white horse, it took two steps back nervously, and then under the control of Hu Sanqi, he gently lifted the horse's hooves and jumped up directly.

This horse is almost as tall as a man, with four long legs, and Hu Sanqi only has a small back in a few breaths.

"Hu Sanqi, come back, you ......"

Before the squad leader reacted, Hu Sanqi rode his horse towards the enemy's gap, but it was not the direction where the squadron leader went, but towards the east, the squad leader was in a hurry, and he was still trying to figure out how to give the order, so he saw a group of horse thieves, bypassed the squad, and chased Hu Sanqi directly!

Then, as if something had been discovered, the horse thieves on the side and opposite also heard the news, and they basically had no formation or formation, and just ran forward in a swarm.

The squad leader barely maintained the line, but the horse thieves didn't seem to be interested in him, but they chased Hu Sanqi, in fact, to chase the white horse.

The squad leader, who thought he understood what was happening, burst into tears, "Sanqi, Sanqi." ”

He shouted with red eyes: "You guys go and inform the squadron leader, go and save Sanqi, this ......"

The squadron leader was already thinking about returning at this time.

There was a battle scheduled for friendly forces to call for help, and there was no mass shooting, and in fact, after the squadron leader ran for several miles, he found almost no one, and he felt that it was inappropriate, so he scattered the differences, and whistled each other to look for the enemy, and they were getting farther and farther away.

This is also the reason why the squad leader's whistle could not find a response, until a long time, a combat squad called, went to look, but found a waste wooden barrel, which was full of debris from many firecrackers, he frowned, and did not understand what it meant, but a soldier shouted: "The sound of the gun came out of this barrel, they lit the whip, threw it in, and from a long distance, it sounded like a shot." ”

The squadron leader was suddenly startled and understood something, this is nine times out of ten fake, the fireworks can also be fake, the gunshots can be fake, but what is the intention of the counterfeiter?

No, the squadron leader is absolutely wrong, and ordered: "Go home immediately, let's go back, we can't stay here for long!" ”

Immediately rushed back, and gradually approached, but the hazy gunfire could be heard, and the squadron leader became more and more anxious, urging the whole team to return.

On the way, he met the soldiers who came to report the news, and intermittently, saying that a large group, an innumerable number of horse thieves, had appeared and besieged the group.

The squadron leader was shocked, but when he returned to the camp, he seemed to be fine, but the squad leader was crying and shouting: "Squadron leader, we have to avenge Sanqi." ”

"Take revenge." He looked at the man next to him and shouted, "This is your horse causing trouble again, and you can actually know in advance that our people are around, and there are ghosts in your team!" ”

He didn't care about scolding these merchants, and quickly figured out the situation, there would be a few squadrons of men patrolling on this grassland, and the border guards had a rapid reaction force, which could attack at any time, and it stands to reason that horse thieves would not dare to come to Monan.

But since he came, he didn't have to go, the horse thief's combat mode was actually very easy to deal with, and the squadron leader ordered the whole team to set off, on the one hand, he ordered the disgusting Yan family to get out of the way, and at the same time sent a fast horse back to Zhangjiakou to report the situation, on the other hand, it was in the direction where the horse thief left.

An hour has passed since Hu Sanqi left.

But they walked more and more carefully, along the way, there is the best roadside, every few hundred meters, you can always find a dead horse that fell to the ground, or a dead body, all of them are gunshot wounds caused by Mauser guns, frontal wounds, the more they look at it, the more frightened they are, how many enemies did Hu Sanqi kill?

Running all the way forward, you can see that the direction is changed from time to time along the way, southeast and northwest, and the corpses of the horse thieves are gradually increasing, and the distance between the corpses is from 500 meters to 100 meters, getting closer and closer, which naturally means that Hu Sanqi shoots and hits the enemy faster and faster.

"How many bullets did Sanqi carry?"

"He had a fixed 100 rounds of ammunition on him, and I wanted to send the stock of bullets, but unfortunately...... But the grenade was there, and it was also a chance to save his life. ”

"When it's time to throw the grenade, it's too late, that white horse looks a little more godly, but it's also a horse, running out for dozens of miles, and if you don't rest, something will happen!"

As soon as I thought of this, I accelerated my speed and whipped up quickly.

The entire steppe was almost alarmed.

The troops of the railway detachment who stayed behind to repair and rest, and were ready for the next patrol, were all assembled, without baggage, and each with two horses, poured out of the nest, and the border guards sent all their horses to chase in the direction of the legendary enemy.

For a long time, after a few years of calm on the grassland, it began to be gradually stirred up again.

For Hu Sanqi, he naturally didn't understand, he only knew that he wanted to run away on horseback, but those horse thieves all pounced.
