Chapter 370: Doomsday (Asking for Support, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The sharp bayonet, in the early morning sun, shines a dazzling light. The light was so bright that no one could open it, and it was flickering on the battlefield. With a deafening shout of killing, the bayonet sank into the enemy's chest. The snow was immediately obscured by blood.
A deafening crackling sound echoed across the battlefield.
"Grenades, grenades, blow up this group of Ming dogs......"
Compared with the Qing army that was killed more than ten years ago, these Qing soldiers now, although their appearance is very different from their parents, but they have courage, after all, they have not experienced the kind of peaceful years when they carried a bird cage and were born with landed silver, and in the process of their growth, everything had to be fought for, including the survival of the Qing Dynasty. Because of this, they showed unimaginable courage at this time. For the Ming army, it was difficult for them to even imagine the bravery shown by these Qing troops at this time, and this bravery was completely unexpected by them.
In the midst of the shouting, a wounded Qing soldier leaned against the trench, holding incense in one hand and a grenade in the other. Trying to stop the enemy with a grenade.
The backwardness of technology has made it impossible for the Qing army to produce grenades that pull the fuse, and they still use the old grenades used by the loyal and righteous army more than 20 years ago, although primitive but still usable, in the past battles, it was with flintlock pistols and grenades that conquered Bukhara.
The explosion of the grenade did not stop the attack of the Ming army, and more and more Ming troops poured into the defense line of the Qing army, tearing their defense line full of holes.
When the soldiers were fighting with the enemy with bayonets, the grenades exploded in the trenches from time to time, the fire and smoke from the grenade explosions filled the trenches, and the blood splashed during the bayonet fight was waved in the air, and the battle was staged here in the most primitive form.
Blood, gunsmoke, shouting and screaming echoed in the air, stirring in the air.
"Kill them all!"
With the support of the will for revenge, Li Dexin completely changed his appearance, and there was only one thought left in his heart, driven by this thought, he became like a tiger, and from time to time he tried his best to stab the bayonet at the enemy.
On the edge of the trench he held off an enemy who was even thicker than him.
"Kill ......"
Just as he was stabbing his bayonet at the enemy, suddenly, a wave of air from a nearby explosion knocked him to the ground. His whole head was thumping. I can't get back to my senses even if I hear it for a while.
I waited a long time. When he shook his head and stood up, he saw that the enemy also stood up, but the firearms in both of their hands fell into the distance, and the Qing army looked at him and immediately rushed over with a howl, without the slightest thought of retreating.
The enemy's face is so hideous that it makes people suspect that there must be a deep hatred between them to make each other so hideous.
"Are you ......?"
Panting, he immediately waved his fist to meet him, and the two quickly became a ball, hugged and fell to the ground, and after some tearing, Li Dexin, who finally crushed the Qing army under him, pressed his knee against the stomach of the Qing army, grabbed his arm with one hand, but his other hand was grabbed by the other party's hand. The two of them were completely glued, and he really had no choice but to desperately press his knee against Qing Jun's stomach and his heart, and this Qing soldier was also struggling desperately, he kept hitting Chen Dexin's body with his knees, and tried to turn him over, or struggle with him to buckle.
"Are you ......?"
Li Dexin, who was hit by the impact of his knee several times and almost let go, may have been annoyed, he opened his mouth suddenly, and then directly bit the enemy's neck, and then, desperately biting the enemy's throat, as soon as he went down, he felt the smell of blood in his mouth, and the Qing soldiers who were bitten in their throats let out a scream of pain, and the Qing soldiers, who were still desperately resisting, let go of their hands after making this scream, wanting to protect their necks, but Li Dexin, who had empty hands, did not give him a chance at all, but bit down desperately.
"Click......
With a crisp sound, blood spurted into his mouth, and even flooded his throat, choking him until he was out of breath. But even so, he kept biting. The enemy, who was originally struggling desperately, quickly gave up struggling under his bite. In panic, he tried to put a hand around his neck, trying to stop the blood gushing from his throat. But his movements were in vain, he could not stop the bleeding at all, and soon he did not move again.
Lying on the ground and gasping for breath, Li Dexin waited for a while before getting up, and then looked at the Qing soldiers around him, there was no longer breath, and the throat that was bitten open was a blur of flesh and blood.
"Scared, scared me to death."
He gasped for breath there, and he even felt a little scared in his heart, and he almost lost his life at the hands of that person before.
It was only at this time that he felt the smell of blood in his mouth, so he took a sip, spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood, and then looked at the corpse on the ground that was gradually cold. He cursed hatefully.
"You turtle son, you almost killed Lao Tzu......"
He cursed, then he stooped down to pick up his own infantry gun from the ground, and then sat down breathlessly under a stone, leaning his exhausted body against it. After a trial of life and death. By this time he was exhausted.
The smell of blood in his mouth made Li Dexin feel frightened for the first time, and he found himself so close to death for the first time. Maybe he was just careless before, but now it's quite possible that he is lying on the ground.
"I almost died just now......"
It's just a little bite, if it hadn't bitten the man's neck, it is estimated that it would have been his own to die, and that man looked much stronger than him......
When he was scared in his heart, there were still bursts of shouts and killings around him, and his comrades were cleaning up the remnants of the enemy, and at this time, the battlefield that had been torn apart had returned to calm.
There were corpses everywhere on the ground, and the comrades-in-arms counted the corpses of the enemy with bayonets from time to time on the battlefield to prevent anyone from playing dead. There is no mercy on the battlefield, there is only the most primitive tearing and killing.
"Li Dexin!"
Hearing someone shouting about himself, Li Dexin, who had finally regained some strength, shouted.
"Coming, coming......"
Then he hurried to follow the brethren and continued the attack. On the battlefield they don't have much time to rest, more often than not, they have to obey the orders of their superiors. Like now, even if you are exhausted, you must choose to obey.
This is the duty of a soldier.
Soon their second attack was stopped. In front of them, a small group of Qing soldiers hid in a rubble-filled fortress, where they relied on the stubborn resistance of the fortress, and the scorching bullets were sprayed out from time to time through the holes of the stone fort. Although this stone fort was not large and was made of schist, it was a strong obstacle for these infantrymen, and it was useless for bullets to hit it, not even grenades, and even because of the angle, the artillery was useless, and at this time, the artillery was already useless.
Now at this time, there is only people. However, instead of attacking immediately, they shouted in front of the position.
"Listen, listen, if you resist to the end, you will only die."
As in the battle in the deep mountains of the southwest, Yang Sen shouted loudly at the enemy, trying to persuade the enemy to disarm and surrender, but apparently he forgot that the enemy he was facing now was not the Tusi of the southwest, but a group of banner men who knew that they would die.
"Ming dog, grandpa is a flag man, and he will never descend to you Ming dogs!"
"Ming dog, Lao Tzu's grandfather is dedicated to killing Han people, how can Lao Tzu surrender......"
The shouting and scolding of the enemy aroused the anger of the brothers, who all stared at the stone fort with gritted teeth, and then shouted angrily:
"Grandson Turtle, Lao Tzu has to cut you all down......"
"Chopped ...... I'll have to wait until you turtle sons have knives......"
It seems that they have calculated correctly, the Ming army does not have a knife in their hands, and they even calculated that the artillery cannot bombard this position. So I was determined to resist to the end. It's completely fearless.
"Damn, don't let Lao Tzu catch it alive!"
"That's it, I grabbed them, I have to peel them off!"
Listening to the words of the brothers, Yang Sen did not speak, Li Dexin and the brothers around him would have been angered by the enemy.
"Lao Tzu, I still don't believe it, so many people have taken down the places guarded, just such a thing, can it still stop us?"
As they shouted, strings of grenades were thrown over and exploded on and around the top of the stone fortress, and the brethren, who had been stirred up to the flames, quickly rushed to the front of the stone fort under the cover of the smoke of gunpowder.
As for them, of course, they did not believe that such a small pillbox could block their way to attack.
"Don't storm it!"
Yang Mingyou shouted. As a veteran, he certainly knows that the greatest opportunity on the battlefield is to lose his cool. Once you lose your cool, nine times out of ten you will lose your life.
But by this time the brethren could not hear him clearly, and their anger swayed their reason, and they tried to take the stone fort by a single charge, as they had done before.
"Stop! Stop it! ”
Yang Sen shouted.
Hearing Janssen's shout, some of the brothers retreated, some fell to the ground, and they stopped attacking. Despite their anger, they have not forgotten who they are.
However, at this time, the enemy defending the stone fort not only attacked with firearms, but also threw some grenades from them, knocking several brothers to the ground one after another.
"Janssen! Go and bring the brethren down! ”
Yang Mingyou ordered loudly. The captain's order got Janssen into action immediately.
Lying in front of the stone castle, holding a grenade in his hand, Yang Sen threw the grenade first, and shouted with the help of blocking the enemy's view from the smoke of gunpowder.
"Follow me!"
With that, he rolled down close to the ground, and the other brethren followed suit, rolling with him, or crawling out of the enemy's firing range.
But even so, when the smoke cleared, there were still two brothers who were hit by the enemy's firecrackers and fell in a pool of blood, and even the brothers in the back could only watch them bleed to death, and the enemy's firecrackers blocked their attempts to rescue.
"You can't fight like that."
Yang Mingyou said angrily.
"Hard work is definitely not good!"
Yang Sen said, holding the infantry gun.
"When we fight, we always look at the situation, when we should be arrayed, when we should not be arrayed, we will definitely not kill ourselves, so hard fighting, in the end, we must be the ones who suffer."
As a veteran, he knows very well that on the battlefield, the Ming army never advocates fighting to the death. That's why he said that.
"What if you don't fight hard?"
Li Dexin asked loudly.
"Let's get a powder bag!"
Glancing towards the stone castle, Janssen said.
"When we were in our hometown in Guizhou, we didn't use that thing less......"
As he spoke, he looked at the brothers around him, the brothers of the year were no longer around, thinking of this, his heart was sour, and he didn't say anything anymore, how do these newcomers know so much?
These people simply don't know how to praise the enemy's cheapness. I don't know how to kill and damage the enemy to the maximum and save myself.
Come to think of it. He thought of his fallen comrades, if they were here, I am afraid that they would not have lost a few lives in vain.
"Yes, use a powder bag."
As the team leader, Yang Mingyou immediately slapped the board and made a decision.
About ten minutes later, two warriors ran back from the bottom of the hill with two gunpowder packets with long poles on their backs.
This kind of gunpowder bag for blasting is not very useful in ordinary times, because of this, even if they want to use gunpowder kit now, they have to get it from the battalion, after all, it is not very useful, so the front is not right, and it is rarely equipped with weapons. But that's when the powder pack comes in handy.
After the gunpowder packets arrived, the terrain was observed. Yang Sen immediately touched two grenades and led the two brothers, pointing to several obstacles on the way to the bunker.
"I'll throw my grenade out in a moment, and you will rush over with the smoke and hide behind the rocks to protect yourself, you know?"
Then he carefully told them which obstacles to take.
"Yes, Yang Shichang."
"Are you ready?"
"Ready!"
As soon as the grenade exploded, in the smoke of the explosion, the two Demomen rushed out and rushed to the bottom of a stone under the cover of gunsmoke, although the Qing army blocked it with firearms, but the stone covered the bullet.
When they looked back, Yang Sen was another grenade, another charge, and after throwing four grenades in succession, a demoman arrived in front of the Qing army's stone fort and pushed the gunpowder bag. Soon the other Demoman put the powder pack on it as well.
As soon as the Demoman pulled the fuse, the fuses of the two packets of gunpowder burst into flames, spewing out white smoke. Janssen then threw out two more grenades to cover the brothers' withdrawal.
As soon as the demomen withdrew, there were two explosions like thunder in succession, and the violent explosion shook the mountain for a while, and the stones of the stone fort built of flakes were immediately blown to pieces, and in the smoke of gunpowder, a large number of stones flew into the air with the smoke of the explosion, and the stone fort was destroyed, and the Qing army that had been defending the fort was buried in the stone fort.
"Rush up and throw a grenade into the hole!"
Yang Sen did not hesitate at all, rushed directly, and threw two grenades at the stone fort that was blown out of a big hole, and after the violent explosion of the grenade, in the stone fort filled with gunsmoke, several Qing soldiers crawled out of it, covered in blood, they screamed and raised their trembling arms stained with blood.
"Grandson Turtle, didn't you just say that you won't surrender?"
"Dogs, days, things!"
Amid the curses of the brothers, Li Dexin rushed over and stabbed a bayonet into one person's chest, while the other Qing soldiers who surrendered hurriedly cried.
"Uncle, uncle, spare the life of a little dog......"
Before he could finish speaking, the bayonet stabbed him from the side, piercing him in the neck with a sharp stab. The sharp tip of the knife peeked out from the other end of his neck, and the Qing soldier's mouth spat out red foam, and his eyes were full of despair, and slowly the look of despair disappeared.
"I, I'm also Han, ......"
The shout of a Qing army made the soldier with a firearm on the side stunned, and his movements seemed a little hesitant. Don't seem to know what to do. Just as he was stunned, Yang Sen had already stabbed him, and when the man fell, he said.
"This dog, the thing is a traitor, not a Han person!"
There was no need for much nonsense, and the brothers around them ended their lives with bayonets, and no one had the slightest sympathy for them.
"Grandson Turtle, when he shouted just now, he said that surrender spared their lives, but they are so good that they have to resist to the end! Well, now they're all dead here. ”
"But no, not only did these Jiannu not surrender, but they also dared to resist us, it's really weird......"
"It's just strange, isn't it also a loss of life now?"
In the eyes of these warriors who came to the southwest mountains, it was really hard for them to imagine why these people were stubborn, just as they couldn't understand why some Tusi actually dared to resist the Ming Dynasty, so they had this opinion.
Although they all spoke stiff Chinese, and even a local language would come out from time to time, it did not prevent them from calling themselves Han Chinese when facing the Qing army.
"The most hateful thing is those traitors, you say, good Han people are inappropriate, but they are traitors, mixed with those Jiannu, but I really can't understand it......"
Obviously, these people from the southwest can't understand the actions of those traitors, let alone their betrayal, and can't understand why they are willing to drive for those barbarians. But it was clear to all of them that now the Manchus had come to an end......
