In fact, for the ancients, the manufacture of some poisonous gases and poisonous smoke still understood, nothing more than croton, arsenic, sulfur and other more "powerful" drugs, with some groped ways to burn, the effect obtained, so-so.

But in terms of timeliness, there is also range lethality, compared to the tactics of the Presbyterian Church, the power and timeliness of things made with modern equipment are not simple, and the fine powder of grinding and sieving has the highest combustion efficiency value.

Therefore, these things scared the Zheng clan away.

Even at night, as if facing a great enemy, bonfires were lit and scouts were sent to hide in the grass to feed the insects, just to keep watch.

It's time to run away.

Li Zhongxun knew the gap between his side and the enemy, not only did he have Zheng Zhun, a traitor within the royal family, but also the direct military support from the Celestial Empire.

Through history, the Council of Elders fully knows the limit of the combat capability of the Zheng Dynasty army at this time, and the Zheng Dynasty has also summed up some experience when fighting with the Mauser army, in fact, as early as after the rifle was captured, it was found that Zheng Zhun's men did not give full play to the real firing speed of the Mauser gun, which could suppress this magical weapon that could fire continuously, Li Zhongxun had already understood that people were not going all out.

Of course, he couldn't imagine that the reason why the Council of Elders suppressed the arms of Zheng Zhun's army was not because it couldn't do it, but because he was afraid that Zheng Zhun would directly kill the Hanoi side and make their conspiracy to consume the strength of both sides unable to succeed.

I can only simply think that the enemy's bullets and ammunition are insufficient, but it is useless to know this, the news sent from the rear, the warships from other ports rushed to complete the task of blocking the landing in Hongji Port, in fact, according to the latest information, the ships from the big pirates simply scattered all the sea ships controlled by Vietnam with a single charge.

Although he had no intention of sending a large number of soldiers to die in vain, Li Zhongxun had to complete a task to block the enemy's attack as much as possible, so he scolded Zheng Zhun for his insidious betrayal and the interference of the Celestial Empire in the internal affairs of other countries.

Zheng's idea is naturally very simple, let himself maintain a group of so-called troops with the old, weak, sick and disabled, and completely unequipped, and try to keep Zheng Zhun from rushing to the capital, as the capital, Hanoi has gathered enough wealth, and at the same time mobilize to capture strong men, and it will take time to deal with Zheng Zhun with crowd tactics.

Although the Zheng clan patted himself on the shoulder and said beautiful words, he still couldn't change the real meaning.

You just stay here and die.

No matter who you are, your face will not be good when you see this situation.

However, Li Zhongxun still tried his best to do his best.

Now, the group of people he sent out, encouraged by heavy money, dug tunnels and continued to advance towards the enemy's position, not seeking to dig any important positions, as long as they were caught off guard at night, Li Zhongxun was already very happy.

The camp that Zheng Zhun dug was actually very unprofessional, only a layer of plough rakes made of not very heavy bamboo, and then there were all kinds of open areas, although they could rely on Mauser rifles to counterattack at an ultra-long distance, but it was very possible to become rigid and hesitant.

This is also a problem, the quality of Zheng Zhun's soldiers is at the level of a strong man, and the weapons and equipment are from the First World War, the reconnaissance means are at the level of drones, and the logistics supply is also very American imperialist compared to this era.

This disconnect has led to problems with their tactical setup.

For the elders, no one takes this war seriously, and it is all played as a real-time strategy game, which is nothing more than guarding several intersections, building some machine gunner bunkers, and the training center in the rear starts to storm troops, and then it feels like it can be formed, so it is just a brainless a.

From a strategic point of view, such violent tactics are suitable for a group like the Elders, which has the ability to govern and farm, and even the horizontal and vertical strategies and tactics but lack the ability to carry out them.

Of course, it is even more simple and crude to secretly instigate civil war until Vietnam, which has exhausted all its war potential.

Compared to the north, the land in Vietnam is much warmer, even during the Spring Festival, it is very soft, it is easy to be excavated, the excavation work is not as difficult as imagined, and even because of the training of soldiers and rewards for the work of the three armed forces, as well as the wine that everyone is allocated, their vigilance is also reduced.

The entrance to the cave was actually dug during the day, and even some people secretly peeked out between the gaps, the place they dug out was a low slope, because it was wet, so no one went over, but it was also suitable for digging, after discovering the location, a day of tunnel repairs was carried out, and the death squad of three hundred people was set up by Li Zhongxun, which was the last elite he took out, and after looting all the money, there was no more strength.

As long as he grabbed an enemy's rifle, it was a lot of money and bullets, and Li Zhongxun knew that the generals in the rear quickly sent a letter, saying that they had found that the guns and bullets of this new type of firearm of the Celestial Empire were almost impossible to imitate, and they were quickly exhausted, so they asked him to capture some more bullets by the way.

Isn't this nonsense, it's just to leave a bunch of garbage for him and let him die.

But Li Zhongxun has no other way, his uncle is dead, and if he wants to turn over and become a master, he can only choose this.

Fight it out.

The infiltrated death squad was ahead, and Li Zhongxun didn't know how to command them, so he gave the order to take advantage of the chaos, and his choice was simple.

Either at the time when the death squad launches, order all the people to charge, take down the enemy's camp, and buy time for the death squad, but in this way, it will definitely cause an early blow and waste their own lives.

But if it starts late, and the death squad has already started fighting, and he sets off, then maybe the brigade will sit back and watch the death squad be killed.

The final choice was a compromise, after the death squad, there was a steady stream of people entering the enemy's camp through the tunnels, and the attack of the brigade began quietly.

"Avenge your brothers, avenge your brothers who died tragically under the guns of traitors!"

"Long live the Mountain Emperor."

Several groups of people and horses were dispatched.

Of course, this kind of stealth mobile raid requires extremely high quality of soldiers, and later generations of Vietnamese may be able to use the constant night raids to make the US imperialist father sad, but this generation of Vietnamese cannot.

Night battles are a great test of the quality of soldiers, and there are always situations where they fall and fall behind, and accidents occur.

Li Zhongxun naturally didn't know that when the ancient Chinese army attacked at night, it always asked the soldiers to shout a piece of wood in their mouths and be executed if it fell, so as to maintain discipline.

The Vietnamese raid party of 1,000 people ran forward, inevitably some people fell and shouted, and there was a lot of footsteps, and the guards who were on duty inside the fence at night must have been alert, but they could not imagine what a good day the Vietnamese had chosen to do it.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first month, the fifteenth day of the first month.

The moon is very bright and sufficient, and on the day of the night attack, it is not good to choose this kind of time, but it is also the lifeblood of the Presbyterian Church, at least for Mu Rongshan, how can he have this experience? All of his experience with warfare comes from movies and real-time strategy games like StarCraft 10.

The guards were no exception, and if they fired their guns at the first time, they could at least buy a few minutes and buy precious time, but they didn't.

Seeing the enemy approaching, someone shouted in Vietnamese: "Enemy! ”

The guards standing guard are all people led by Zheng Zhun all the year round, although the quality is not good, and the marksmanship is poor, but it is better to be loyal.

For any leader, loyalty is the number one factor.

Due to the shooting boundary, the first few shots actually did not cause any casualties, and for these newcomers who have been touching the gun for more than a month at most, it is already very good to be able to shoot, and shooting requires very good arm strength and very good spirit.

And they are still at the point of shooting at the approximate goal, in the spirit of being worthy of their own military salary.

Of course, this is already quite remarkable, according to Mu Rongshan's plan, such an attack, as long as it plays the role of a sentry, then the Mauser gunners lined up below can easily deal with the enemy.

But this time it was different, day and night, the Vietnamese actually dug through the tunnel.

The sentries behind the fence were obviously taken by surprise, they kept firing, but there was no hit, until they got closer, the crowd became denser and denser, and finally there was a result, but at that time, there was also a sound from the rear, and it was clear that there were also enemies in the rear!

As we said before, Mu Rongshan obviously regarded this operation as a real-time strategy game, thinking that after blocking the mouth and building a bunker, it would be foolproof.

But on the other side, there are also people who are as alive as him.

Humans don't suffocate to a pattern.

The Vietnamese army has a characteristic that the eastern army of this era cannot match, that is, they are very experienced in all kinds of fortifications, after all, they have to fight the Nguyen clan in the south every year.

Everyone wrapped a cloth around their mouths with urine on top of it, in case of possible toxic smoke attacks, and of course, this was also unfounded.

Due to the "confirmation" that the main force of the Vietnamese official army retreated, Mu Rongshan and Bao Gonggong in the rear also slackened, Mu Rongshan naturally held back his bad plan to fool Zheng Zhun into setting off to release the blood of the Vietnamese, and Bao Gonggong recently got a few Vietnamese women sent by Mu Rongshan, although the language is not understood, but some things are actually more interesting to communicate.

Zheng Zhun had a contingency plan, once the enemy approached, in addition to the 100 people he personally led as a reserve, the other Mauser troops would advance in several directions with 100 people as a team, relying on the fence as a cover to kill and wound the enemy.

But, just afraid but, they didn't notice that someone had been digging a hole.

As a typical example of shoddy defenses, there was no second layer of defense facilities inside to guard against the enemy's broken camp, and there was not even a single trench, and Mu Rongsan had obviously put his mind to the expedition to Hanoi to take the city that was said to have a lot of good things, and of course, by the way, it was also to completely shatter the social structure of Vietnam, so that the elders could profit from it.

This shattered structure is so important that they ignore it.

The location of the tunnel happened to be very hidden, and because no one was paying attention, these people just blended into the side of a group of soldiers who had gathered in the night, and launched a direct attack.

The front and rear columns are very good formations, but to adapt, it is very poor, and it requires extremely elite elite soldiers, the strongest array in history to line up to shoot infantry is none other than the British Army in World War I, after all, they are all countries with a tradition of military schools since childhood, countries with guns, coupled with strict training, and under the conscription system of the pit father, the local corps fights, that is to say, a region is filled with a unit's military strength, and the regimental annihilation of an infantry company is likely to mean that a county-sized local family is filial piety.

Someone shot in the darkness, and someone exclaimed: "There is an enemy!" ”

When shooting at close range, regardless of whether it was their own person or not, the smell of all kinds of gunpowder began to disperse, and in a panic, the recruits kept shooting, and when it was time to load the bullets, it was the first time that they gave the enemy a large amount of close quarters.

Fortunately, the rifles in their hands are really not burning sticks, but wood of good materials from Liaodong, which really picks up and pastes their faces, which will cost a few teeth.

The weapons brought by the death squad are all short knives, and there are also some strange farm tools and the like, after all, these people are abandoned sons who block the enemy in the eyes of the Zheng royal family, and in comparison, they are actually more powerful rifles.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, although they were equipped with bayonets, basically these people did not think of using them, but were attacked one by one, and the feeling of having enemies in front and behind and left and right was simply terrible.

At the same time, due to the attack of a hundred-man team, under the gap, there was a fence, many Vietnamese soldiers had gathered, they struggled to begin to dismantle these fences made of wood and bamboo, and soon opened a gap, and after the gap could pour into the crowd, naturally someone could enter, and began to gradually open the gap.

Originally, the design of Mu Rong Shan was to delay the Vietnamese attack with a fence, and then let the Mauser battalion in the back directly hit the target, and after repeated calculations, it can be concluded that with the current level of the Vietnamese, it is basically impossible to attack head-on.

Then, the Vietnamese dug tunnels directly.

The impact of the breakthrough of the defensive line was very large, because the battle line was arranged too well, the disadvantage of a group of soldiers not being able to shoot was that it was used as a breakthrough point, and a large number of Vietnamese poured in.

The hardest part of night battles is that you can't see the real situation, and in many wars, there are more cases of trampling on each other than being killed by the enemy after a night attack in the barracks.

In a word, it was beaten like a headless fly. 2k reading web
