Chapter 571: The Enemy Situation Is Urgent

In fact, there are many things that have been kept in the dark by the "captive" men and horses in this battalion.

For example, when the Ming thieves have captured Huai'an, no one has revealed it to them; There is also a freshly baked plan to burn the city and break out, and Cui Duyan did not inform them; There was a complete loss of order in the city, and the guest soldiers and the strong squad had become fire and water, and the two sides clashed frequently, and they were completely unaware of it......

Even, even Ma Jinbao's real intention of "imprisoning" them here, it is impossible for these Qiu Ba themselves to understand.

At the beginning, Ma Jinbao of course expected that the Ming thieves would cross the river from the south, and he planned to preserve some strength and use this relatively complete new force as a reserve for counterattacks.

Later, when he was shocked to learn that Huai'an had fallen, he didn't want to adjust it even more - under the attack from the north and south, Yangzhou was difficult to preserve, and the north gate, which bore the brunt, was just handed over to this gang of cannon fodder......

As the so-called fools have the happiness of fools, for various reasons, the morale of these fools from top to bottom is still there, and there is no other team that "fears the enemy like a tiger" mood.

However, ignorance is really an obstacle to survival - if you don't fight, you don't know, as soon as you make a move, this group of megalomaniacs is beaten out!

Seeing his subordinates gradually disappearing into the night on the other side, Sun Guolin turned around - he wanted to go back to the camp to take a breath, and arrange the follow-up of the main force by the way.

Unexpectedly, a burst of gunshots like popping beans suddenly rang out, and he was suddenly startled and jumped up and almost rolled to the ground.

"What's going on?"

In the fierce burst of gunfire, he stared hard, his jaw was about to drop, his mind was blank, and he couldn't react for a while.

In a moment's moments of confusion, his men collapsed—and they soon reappeared, but this time, they fled back to the pontoon.

However, the thief's spear seemed to have eyes at this time, and he chased after them and bit them on the back.

In an instant, the soldiers who were throwing off their armor and running wildly on the pontoon bridge suddenly became live targets, and people kept popping into the river, screaming, roaring, wailing, and the sound of weapons crashing into chaos......

Sun Qian always gasped - "This fast gun, can it hit so far?" ”

He looked into the distance, and judging from the faint muzzle flames emitted from the shadows, he judged that the thief should be lying in ambush on a mound next to the official road.

"But it's not close to the shore......"

He was naturally familiar with the nearby terrain, and he knew that even the nearest small mound to the river bank was a hundred paces away.

For a moment, he felt that his brain was really insufficient......

When all the living escaped into the stone barrier, and the gunfire of the thieves finally stopped, his legs trembled, and he stood in front of these dozens of remnants who were like ashes and lost their souls, while listening to the screams of the dying from time to time, his heart was extremely cold.

"It's only half a bag of cigarettes, and there are sixty or seventy gone?"

He could hear that the firepower of the thieves was indeed fierce, but the number did not seem to be much, and the duration of the fire was not long, otherwise, none of these soldiers would be able to come back.

"Go down and rest......"

He blushed and waved his hand weakly.

The task was not completed, and he was helpless, he did not know how to explain to the above, let alone what to do next, so he had to move his legs indifferently, and returned to the side of the wall, looking at the pontoon bridge in a daze.

There, there were corpses lying all over the place, and there were many screaming wounds......

At this time, Vice General Cui arrived in a hurry with people.

"Adult ......"

Seeing Cui One-eyed, frightened and aggrieved, Sun Qian almost cried.

"I've seen them all,"

Cui Duyan just waved his hand and didn't scold him, "Do you see clearly, where is the ambush of the thief?" ”

"I see, I guess...... Two hundred steps offshore,"

Mr. Sun Qian raised his hand and wiped his face, "There are a few dirt hills...... It's on the side of the official road, there are no trees on it, but the weeds are very dense......"

Cui Duyan heard what he said quite clearly, and immediately approached the wall and raised the monocular clairvoyant in his hand.

Sure enough, although the night is still dark, in the lens, you can still roughly see a few black mounds, but their size is not the same, I don't know where the thief is hiding......

As he was looking intently, he didn't notice that on the dirt hill three hundred paces away, a sniper had set up his gun and was quietly watching the gap between the walls......

……

It turned out that Mei Jianyong commanded a machine gun and a squad of soldiers, and the head-on attack on the first batch of Tartars had just ended, and the scout squad far away on the northern slope rushed over when they heard the noise.

They held the position on the northern slope for a long time, except for the sporadic refugees running by, there was no other movement, and seeing the fierce fire in the eastern position, the soldiers were itching and asked the squad leader to fight.

The squad leader thought about it, anyway, there was a pocket set up by Zheng Jun in the back, which was expected to be enough to deal with a few people, so he immediately made a decision, and the whole class immediately rushed to help!

- Warlike is the characteristic of the soldiers of the captive army.

As soon as they arrived at the Dongpo command post, they immediately asked the second platoon commander to fight, but unexpectedly, Mei Jianyong asked them to be a reserve - he was worried that he had no mobile troops in his hands.

The soldiers couldn't laugh or cry, but they had to obey the order and obediently stay at the foot of the mountain to stand by.

However, the only sniper group in the company insisted on a sortie - according to the regulations, the snipers were in position, and there was usually a great deal of freedom of movement.

Mei Jianyong was right to think about it, hand-to-hand combat is not his forte, long-distance beheading is, so he waved his hand - "Accurate".

The sniper and deputy snipers smiled happily and immediately happily touched the vicinity of the machine gun position and set up their sniper rifles to observe the enemy's situation.

At this moment, with the help of the low-light sight, the genuine sniper found that there was a place where a trace of reflection flashed from time to time.

He secretly rejoiced in his heart that there might be a Tartar official there—the instructor had said that the flash could come from a telescope, or from the helmets of high-ranking generals, or even from the armor pieces of his body......

"Bang!"

"Whew~~~ poof!"

With a sharp whistling sound, a bullet flying from two hundred meters away slammed into the stones of the wall, and sand and stones were splashed everywhere!

Cui Duyan's body shook suddenly, his legs were weak and he almost collapsed to the ground, but Wang Jijun was a little more sophisticated, he immediately shrank his head and squatted, and his whole body was hidden behind the wall.

"What...... Ghost? ”

Cui Duyan was shocked.

Observing the enemy situation here, he is completely hidden behind the wall, and even half of his head is exposed, how does the thief know that he is here?

"It's a sniper,"

Wang Jijun said, cautiously leaned up, and looked out between the cracks in the stone wall, "This place can't stay, let's change places!" ”

Several people immediately changed places to observe the movement of the thief again.

After adjusting the clairvoyant mirror, Cui Duyan saw clearly that the earthen hill where the gunshot was fired just now was the closest offshore, and on the dirt slope that was not very high, there seemed to be a curved trench......

"Are there many thieves?" He asked, looking back.

"Like...... Not much. ”

Sun Qian, who was still in shock, replied.

"Then you take everyone, lunge and kill them!"

As he spoke, Cui Duyan looked at the city gate behind him worriedly.

The enemy situation is urgent, and the thieves in the city are estimated to be killed soon.
