Chapter 56 of the Flying Dragon: Nine Dragons Lock Sings Heavenly Grace (5)
"The enemy is coming up again, and the reconnaissance ahead says that there are as many as six or seven thousand people this time." An elder beside Xie Ming said with concern: "Is the general reserve ready to be dispatched?" ”
The so-called general reserve is only a force of 150 people, but the soldiers in it are all elites who have participated in many battles in Borneo and Java, and they are the direct subordinates of the Senate sent by Xie Ming's side, and they have not fought before.
But Xie Ming only looked at the telescope for a while, and then said calmly: "The general reserve - don't move." ”
If Zhu Daizhen can't bring this person back, he won't want to stand out in the army again. ’
I think so, but in fact, I still attach great importance to this hairy boy, at least Fang Cai's two formations are still very good, and he may not be able to do better if he goes by himself.
But it was said that there was no need for support, but the artillery side still had to take care of it, and the soldiers on the fortress who were originally familiar with Zhu Bu also clenched their fists, hoping that they would be able to 'return' soon.
However, when retreating before the battle, Zhu Daizhen was still extremely cautious, and kept the formation in strict accordance with the requirements of the drill code. Compared with Fang Cai's operational command, this kind of enemy's forward army consumed more energy, and his palms soon sweated again.
But fortunately, it was getting closer and closer to the fortress, and he believed that the chief's retreat order was reasonable, no matter what arrangements were made later, but at least it made him feel that he was not fighting alone, which was also the reason why the soldiers around him could unite their hearts and minds since the previous battles, and the chief did not treat them as just cannon fodder to be consumed, and at all times he wanted to minimize sacrifices as much as possible.
The wounded soldiers were carried on stretchers, their wounds properly bandaged with snow-white gauze, and the dead were not in the wilderness, and were also carried with the team to the fortress. Zhu Daizhen understands that it is these details that give his brothers peace of mind, as has been the case in previous battles, and the so-called victory in a hundred battles does not only rely on the sharpness of firearms.
At this time, the hearts of the soldiers were a little swaying and those female soldiers who accompanied the army, the medical soldiers had just recently become a separate branch of the army, and it was said that the troops were just scattered soldiers assigned to each team, and a team was only a dozen people, and only a slightly larger unit like them would be equipped.
Those girls are all white clothes and white hats, and many of them who have not taken off their childishness seem to be obviously unmarried, but they also have their hair in a high bun, and at first glance, they are dressed like they are wearing filial piety.
This dress was also difficult for the soldiers to accept at first, but after several battles, this barrier was gradually eliminated, these female soldiers did play a crucial role in saving the life of the soldiers, and when they were in battle, they did not have the intention of retreating, they were more courageous than ordinary men, and they did not avoid blood stains and men and women to prevent injuries and diseases, which made people feel moved. Those superfluous thoughts were naturally put to the fore, after all, no one would give up the chance to survive on the battlefield because of a dress problem, not to mention that most of them are indeed not married yet, and they are thinking differently.
At this moment, the white lotus flower that always hits the red flag in front of the medical team will look particularly gorgeous.
And those captives of Cham did not have much good looks, all of them looked depressed, at this moment they had already been stripped of their clothes, naked in a line, surrounded by separate warriors, but the distance between each other still made everyone wary, after all, these people had rebelled, in those days when there was no Ao Song, such people would only face torture and death.
Of course, this is one of the reasons why the team travels more slowly.
Zhu Daizhen looked at the fortress, and then looked back at the position where the enemy was chasing, and the hand holding the command knife was finally a little easier, and this distance was already relatively safe.
…………
The scouts kept coming, the news kept coming true, and the thieves had indeed retreated, and although the thieves stationed in the fort farther forward did not seem to be evacuating, this was the only bit of good news since the battle this morning. Even if he knew that the thief had a firearm with a long range, Ruan Fulan had now accelerated his marching speed a little, and there was only a shallow trench in front of the fortress, and it was not too steep, he knew that this was the thief's intention, in order not to block the firearm shooting, but that was under ordinary circumstances, with his understanding of the thief's firearms, although the power was indeed huge, but now he was better than the number of people, with the current six or seven thousand people, surrounding the fortress, he did not believe that he could not attack it. Thinking of this, he laughed secretly in his heart, Ruan Fuyi's miscalculation was the lack of troops invested at the beginning, so that the other party took the lead, and later Ruan Youyi was also like a salary to fight fires, if he really wanted to suppress people from the beginning, maybe when he saw so many elite infantry soldiers on the other side, he would also obediently retreat to the fortress, so that at least the morale would not be low.
Another scout approached, "Childe, the thieves are about to retreat into the fort in a day." ”
"Don't let them run away." Ruan Fulan waved the folding fan in his hand and ordered to the relatives beside him.
A moment later, a group of 500 cavalry galloped in the direction of Zhu Daizhen's department, as a rare branch of troops in Guangnan, their figure was even more striking than the smoke and dust raised along the way.
At the same time, the enemy's movements were transmitted to the headquarters through observation posts, and the movement of five hundred cavalry was no small number, and they soon caught up.
The Betrayal Army did not form a formation with their backs to the city walls until they had covered the entry of the last militia and prisoners into the city.
The thief had no intention of retreating into the city. ’
The pro-marquis Zhangqi who led the troops finally breathed a sigh of relief, he was ordered to come to pursue, but he didn't expect the thief's Lu Shi to retreat so quickly, and he was about to enter the fort, so his 'pursuit' obviously became a joke, but fortunately, the thief was also a little big, and he wanted to fight with the cavalry outside the field.
If there is still the kind of dry trench before, the other party has confidence and it is reasonable, but now what he is in front of him is just a flat river, even behind this team of thieves, there is still some distance from the fortress wall, there is only a small bridge in the shallow trench in front of the fort, if it weren't for the sharp firearms in the thief castle, he really wouldn't mind going to copy it from the back.
At present, there is a ready-made method, as long as the first two fierce attacks, the opponent retreats, as long as the confusion rushes into the shallow trench behind, then the ensuing army can take advantage of the situation to cover and kill, and this fortress will be decided in one fell swoop.
Zhu Daizhen didn't plan to enter the city, which first surprised the patriarchs, although relying on the fortress to build a defensive line is indeed the content of the canon, but in the eyes of the patriarchs, such a thing can be handed over to the Cham captives, although these people just follow the Cham king repeatedly, but they are not innocent, let them rely on the fortress to act as cannon fodder in front of it is already considered forgiving, even if the Cham captives themselves must not have more extravagant hopes.
But Zhu Daizhen did exactly that, and even Xie Ming felt that his courage was commendable.
I have to say that Ruan Fulan's direct pro-marquis cavalry still has some skills, thinking that the opponent showed flaws and did not blindly attack, but patiently sparse and scattered forward, and always paid attention to the movements on the fortress during the advance.
Seeing that there was no artillery firing on the fort wall, Na Zhangqi was secretly happy in his heart, and when he gave an order, the relatives around him raised the spears in their hands one after another.
And behind these hundreds of cavalry, because the defense line of the Beiwei army retreated, the Quang Nam army was also able to expand into a fan shape, and the problem of the attack surface that had caused Ruan Youyi a big headache before seemed to be solved, and because of this, the rhythm of the 'pursuit' of the army was also much faster, and everyone was vying for the lead for a while.
…………
The first gunshot broke out almost at the same time as the spear throwing of the Guangnan army, and the Beiwei army outside the fortress wall did not panic in the slightest, Zhu Daizhen and his brothers knew that there was the most powerful backing behind them, and the enemy seemed to have touched the door of victory, but it could never be opened.
Bullets entered the enemy line, and the horses and soldiers kept falling to the ground, but the guns also came into effective range, first a sporadic one or two, and then more at first.
Soldiers continued to fall and then dragged into the formation for treatment, and the seriously wounded were sent from the rear of the formation into the fort, and during the whole engagement, the enemy really did not dare to go around to the rear of the army.
But Zhu Daizhen also saw some clues from the hand, the opponent's cavalry leader was also a little smart, knowing that his own firearms were quite short reload intervals, so he rushed up to throw a round of guns and then hurriedly retreated, and only rushed up to throw another round after a little formation. As a result, the formation was already scattered, so even though it lost a lot of warriors under the muskets, it also caused some casualties to Zhu Daizhen's troops.
Zhu Daizhen couldn't help frowning when he looked at the other party's movements, and pressed down with the hand holding the command knife.
The soldier, who was about to shoot again, immediately withdrew his finger that pulled the trigger, and let another round of throwing guns fall into the formation.
Then as soon as the team opened, they turned around like a crane wing formation and ran straight to the shallow trench behind.
All this seems to have gone through a long time, but in fact, it is only a few breaths, and the leading soldier Zhang Qi reacted, this is a thief who has no medicine, so he simply stopped reining in the horse, and led the army to cover up the past with a shout.
When they approached, there was another round of throwing guns, but this time it was empty, and the thieves who were still 'holding their heads and running away' a few breaths ago turned back and leaned against the shallow trench slope behind them, and no one was injured. The soldiers who were crawling on the slope were waiting for work at this moment, and another volley was fired, and the dense cavalry suddenly left a large number of corpses.
The depression between the two prismatic fortress walls became a natural barrier for the military formation, which made it difficult for the enemy's cavalry to exert it, and when the war horses got closer, the muskets and artillery on the fortress wall also began to fire, coupled with the shallow trench barrier, although the cavalry charge seemed to be quite threatening, but their own losses were not small, and they did not hold out for long and finally completely retreated.
The sound of cannons and gunfire rumbled again, but the patriarch Lin Jiahe in the fort was unmoved, as a female patriarch, her performance was somewhat moving even in the eyes of other patriarchs.
A corpse that had been shot in the head by Migne's bullet was placed on a makeshift table, surrounded by female soldiers in white. The expressions on the faces of these girls varied, some were tough, some were forced to suppress the disgust and fear in their hearts, but fortunately, none of them showed obvious gaffes.
"This is the heart, Kang Guixiu, you can talk about the specific role of the heart." Lin Jiahe ignored everyone's expressions and commanded himself.
"Hmm...... The heart is the ...... of the human body Vital organs. Kang Guixiu stammered a little at first, but after seeing the teacher's affirmative eyes, he spoke more and more smoothly, but his eyes did not focus on the corpse of the Quang Nam soldier.
"The human heart is mainly a hollow organ composed of myocardium, with four chambers: left atrium, left ventricle, right atrium, and right ventricle. The left ventricle is connected to the aorta, the right ventricle is connected to the pulmonary artery, the left atrium is connected to the pulmonary vein, and the right atrium is connected to the superior and inferior vena cava. The left and right atria and between the left and right ventricles are separated by septa, so they are not connected to each other, and there are valves between the atria and the ventricles, which allow blood to flow only from the atria to the ventricles, not backwards. The function of the heart is to promote blood flow, provide sufficient blood flow to organs and tissues to supply oxygen and various nutrients, and take away the end products of metabolism, so that cells can maintain normal metabolism and function. ”
"It's the lungs that wrap the heart."
Lin Jiahe didn't name anyone again this time, but used the whip to open the organs in the chest cavity of this corpse, where is the trachea and where is the stomach, and with the movements, he continued to explain the role of various organs, and his expression was not messed up at all.
"You can try to touch this heart and feel it."
Belch......
This time, someone really vomited, and ran to the side to vomit in Lin Jiahe's somewhat blamed eyes.
There is no better teaching environment than the battlefield, and from the very beginning, the people of the Department of Health and Welfare have put the idea of quickly training medical students and nurses on the battlefield. In fact, the major battlefields are the calmest on the Quang Nam side, and the indigenous medical students of surgery have long been under the command of Java who don't know how many Agung have dissected, but there are a lot fewer dissects here.
Before Kang Guixiu became a medical female soldier, she also helped her father cook some poultry at home, but when it came to touching people's internal organs, she still felt nervous and afraid.
Something was slippery, some was warm, and she could feel the warmth slipping away.
With a 'bang', Kang Guixiu was startled.
"Don't be afraid, when this cannon sounds, is it more like the feeling that the heart is still beating?" Lin Jiahe didn't know if he was joking or really thinking so, but as soon as the words came out, it was obvious that the atmosphere of the students was much more relaxed.
But then the beating of the heart began to 'fast', as if it was about to come to life, because I don't know what kind of sound sounded faster and rhythmically.
'Da Da Da Da...... Da Da ...... even Lin Jiahe was a little moved and glanced out of the castle.
"What's that?"
"Burning the Plain Bullet Rain......" The female patriarch said without being salty.
