Chapter 500: Spring 7
After killing everyone in the mansion, Zuo Helin realized that the room they raided seemed to be a shelter for wounded soldiers.
The Qi army blew up and slashed, killing about 30 people, including a few female Tartars who were taking care of the wounded, and the other corpses were also obviously wounded, and many of them were tied with gauze and other things.
Of course, there is no law of war in this era, neither the wounded nor the medical personnel will receive additional care, and Zuo Helin and the others did not feel that there was anything inappropriate to kill these people.
They didn't even take a second look at the corpses all over the ground, the commando captain waved his hand repeatedly, and this time it was the Blue Brigade who rushed ahead.
Saliana opened the door and was stunned to find two golden soldiers half a step away in front of him!
One of them seemed to be wounded, hanging his head and being helped by another golden soldier and about to push the door and go inside.
The two were caught off guard and faced each other for about two seconds, and finally it was Saliana who reacted first, his shoulders were short, he took a step forward, knocked the golden soldier who was holding the wounded man into a rolling gourd, and then pounced on it, stabbing the Jurchen armored soldier with his waist knife.
The golden soldier screamed miserably, kicked his feet wildly, and tried to push Saliana away with both hands, but Saliana's strong size and iron armor were not at all something that a thin armored soldier like him, who had been half-starved and half-fed for several years, could push him, not to mention that he was also injured.
Saliana grabbed the neck of the soldier with one hand, and stabbed the waist knife in the other hand repeatedly, the armor soldier's eyes widened, and he looked at him with horror and despair, and after a moment, his hands finally hung down weakly......
A group of soldiers from the Blue Brigade poured out from behind Saliana and rushed into the front yard of the house, and they saw clearly that this was a large courtyard, and the gate of the front yard was open, and standing at the door of the house, they could see the Tartar soldiers shouting and coming and going on the street outside.
There were quite a few enemies, but no one seemed to notice the presence of a Qi commando in the fierce battle.
This is also a side benefit of the explosive assault tactics in street fighting, as the Qi army does not have to stick to narrow lanes at all, and they can use explosives to pack explosives into a solid building to directly break a passable road.
In this way, the enemy's previous defenses based on the architectural layout are likely to be directly invalidated, and it is also easy to be caught off guard by the Qi army that breaks through the wall.
Several sappers quickly ran to the corner of the front door, each took out a small sky-shaking thunderbolt, lit it, and threw it into the alley on the other side of the wall.
Three seconds later, an explosion rang out, and the alleyway in front of the courtyard was plunged into thick smoke, and the screams of the Tartars were heard incessantly.
The Qi army, which had gradually adapted to this tactic, poured into the alley through the gate, with the Blue Brigade on the left and the front on the right, each of them shooting a round with a bow or pistol, and then pulling out their knives and killing everyone who could still stand up.
Before the Qi army had time to taste this small victory, there was a sudden cannon sound at the end of the roadway, and hundreds of lead bullets spilled into the roadway, and the five blues and four Xuanfeng fell in response, and the rest did not dare to resist the cannon in this narrow terrain, so they had to retract back into the courtyard.
The commando leader half-crouched at the gate, stretched out his smooth-polished waist knife to look, and through the reflection, he found that there was a small two-story building opposite the end of the alley, and there was a bowl cannon emitting green smoke from the window of the upper floor.
"Lao Sa!" The Commando Captain called to Saliana: "What do you see on the other side?" β
Saliana glanced at the knife face and said firmly: "That is the mansion of Wanyan Zongmin, the king of Tartar Shu!" β
Wanyan Zongmin is the son and son of the puppet Taizu of the Jin State, the general of the Jurchen clan, although he did not catch Bo Jilie, but he was the minister of the Jin State, so he is also a high-ranking nobleman.
Although he was executed during the coup d'Γ©tat of the four princes for supporting Wanyan Wu begging, his old mansion was still relatively luxurious and sturdy.
This kind of building naturally became an important support point for the Jin army's defense, and even if Zhou Ning's initiative was so important, Wanyan Zongbi still forcibly detained a few artillery pieces and placed them in similar buildings to act as the core of defense.
The commando leader also saw several muskets pointing in this direction in the reflection, and it seemed that there were various models and calibers.
"It's condescending, it's too dangerous to leave it alone, we have to pull out this point!"
The captain shouted:
"Let's get on it!"
It's not about playing ant attachment together, you have to have tactics.
Two sappers secured an explosive pack in the corner of the wall farthest from the small building, lighting it up and blowing up a new passage.
Before the enemy upstairs could react, Zuo Helin and the two clever Xuanfeng suddenly rushed out of the hole in the wall, without even looking at the enemy, and rushed to another alley with their heads down as fast as they could.
Jin Bing obviously didn't expect that the Qi army would actually rush out from here, and several Aha heavy gunners subconsciously fired at the figure that quickly disappeared, regardless of whether it was within range or not, naturally they didn't aim.
There was a burst of gunfire in the ping-pong pong, during which another bowl cannon also fired a shot, and the lead bullets hit the walls and the ground, splashing up bursts of dust, but none of the Qi troops hit.
The Qi army's understanding of firearms far surpassed that of the slave soldiers of the Jin Kingdom, and taking advantage of the enemy's reloading, the sappers blew a new hole in the corner of the wall closest to the small building.
The Blues burst out of the new opening, and the Vanguards walked through the gate, five or six meters apart from each other, just enough for both the musketeers and archers to put the small building within range.
Puffy puff, puff puff puff ......
The archers and musketeers of the Qi army fired at the same time, and the feather arrows and lead bullets rained down on the second floor of the small building, and all the Jin troops were so frightened that they retracted their heads, and the Jin army was easily suppressed by the Qi army.
Then, two sturdy sappers sprinted a few steps, waved hard under the small building, and threw two smoking earth-shattering thunderbolts from the window into the second floor.
The screams of the Jin army and the earth-shattering thunder explosion rang out at the same time, and as a ball of fire flashed, the wall on the second floor facing the alleyway collapsed entirely, and the masonry dust and dead corpses rained down like a rain.
The commando captain took the lead, found the side door of the Tartar Shu Palace, kicked it open, and rushed in with the Xuanfeng Blues.
In the courtyard of the Shu Palace, more than a dozen Tartars stood at the door of the house and shot at the Qi army with heavy arrows, and the bow and arrow could not pose any threat to the protection of the shield and cuirass.
The soldiers of the Qi army formed a small shield array, and walked forward side by side with the feather arrows of the Tartars, the shield made a loud noise, but none of the arrows caused damage, and as the distance approached, the Jin army armor soldiers collapsed in the face of the shield wall, and some people began to flee backwards.
The shield array was disbanded, and the Qi army shouted in unison, pounced together, and hacked all the slow Jin troops to death from behind.
The few remaining people were blocked in a small room by the Qi army, and when there was no way to retreat, they were forced to surrender.
