Chapter 267: Magnificent Mountains and Rivers
The roar of the five elm sprays not only hit the officials and soldiers, but also hit Zhao Dahai's heart.
He didn't expect that his prestige in this cavalry team was so low, he originally thought that as long as he killed Zhao Xiaozi, he would almost be able to ascend to the top and respond to every call. At that time, if you lead the army into the valley and capture the stars in one fell swoop, then you and your brothers will have a great credit, and it will also lay the foundation for dominating one side in the future.
Now not only did not that kind of scene appear, but countless enemies were set up, and at this time, some bullshit captain stood up and gathered a plate of scattered people and horses, making himself more passive.
When the captain heard the sound of the cannon, he didn't feel a little relaxed in his heart, now that the civil strife has reached such a point, it is no longer a reality to want to form a team again and block the officers and soldiers, someone must report to the commander of the military division, but now the candidate for the report is difficult to choose, and ordinary people report it, and no one can believe that Zhao Dahai will betray the cottage.
Suddenly, the captain remembered that there was a person who could take on this role - Zhang Dalang, as long as he went back to report the news, there would be absolutely no problem, so he immediately shouted loudly: "Brother cavalry, hurry up and send a squad out, grab Zhang Dalang out, send some brothers to protect him, and report to the military division." β
This shout almost killed Zhao Dahai, he knew that his brother's character originally wanted to be a wooden boat, if he really let Da Lang go back to report the news, then all his plans would go wrong, but fortunately, in order to protect Da Lang's safety, he was afraid that Da Lang would be reckless, and found an excuse to tie up the kid, but at that time, he just sent a few cavalry brothers to guard and detain him in a small mountain pass, if those guys suddenly released Da Lang, Those two hundred and five guys will really let their hard work go to waste, and now the brothers of the cavalry on the opposite side are risking their lives and deaths like a tide, and there are already a few who have seized the swords and guns, and they are inseparable from their cronies, how to take a shot to stop them from rescuing Dalang?
"Brother Xinjunjun, you are eating the cottage, and you understand why you want to join the cottage, now that the cottage is in danger of survival, please dedicate yourself to the cottage and exterminate Zhao Dahai, a traitor." The captain shouted at the dazed new annex brothers.
Zhao Dahai also shouted when he heard this: "The cottage has perished, and accepting the court's recruitment is the way out, everyone followed me to exterminate this stubborn guy, and followed me to the court to be an official to eat and make a fortune." β
This is a great temptation, especially when things are almost clear, and struggling any further is a dead end, at this time, the new annex army is really shaken, some people's faces are already full of hesitation, some people are already full of eagerness and greed, but most of them are at a loss and don't know what to do.
When the captain saw that he couldn't do anything, he shouted at the time: "In this case, everyone has their own ambitions, I don't force it, for the sake of the poor people, please don't want to help." β
This request is in line with the people's hearts, and the two don't want to help, and sit back and watch the result This is the mind of most of the newly attached troops.
"All squad leaders, military commanders, immediately withdraw and reinforce the firearms battalion brothers, they must block the officers and soldiers, even if it is a moment and a half, they must buy time for Da Lang to be saved." As soon as he saw that the new annex had become stable, the captain arranged again.
Immediately fifty or sixty still wanted to rectify the new annex army and Zhao Dahai to fight, the original old eight team brothers immediately gave up this **, at that time shouted empty-handed rushed to the pass, although there were no knives and guns, but the pass was already full of big wooden boulders, which could be completely topped for a while.
As soon as they arrived, they saw the officers and soldiers once again trampling over the bloody corpses of their comrades and attacking the pass, while the brothers of the firearms battalion were rapidly loading elm sprays.
So, these brothers didn't say much, copied the stone in front of them, the big wood, and smashed it at the officials and soldiers in the pass, and for a time the boulder rolled down, the giant wood rolled, and the flesh and blood alleys were opened in the group of officers and soldiers like sardines, and the officials and soldiers immediately let out a deafening scream and wail.
However, the officers and the army all know that now is a critical time, and where to spare their lives, time is for everyone.
Driven by the butcher's knives of the junior officers, the officers and soldiers had just stopped and launched another charge.
Only this slow, immediately bought time for the elm spray, the five elm sprays were loaded again, and without waiting for the captain's command, they were ignited one after another, and the loud noise sounded again, and the iron-blooded broom of lead immediately swept through the crowd of the officers and soldiers again, and the crowd of the officers and soldiers was beaten out of the flesh and blood alley again and again.
The attack of the officers and soldiers was suffocated again, and the two blows made those officers and soldiers hesitate, and no matter how the officers shouted and urged, they also slowed down the pace of the attack.
However, after two launches, the elm spray has reached the time to dissipate heat, or it will blow up, but where is the time to dissipate heat at this time? Seeing the sparks flickering in the barrel of the cannon, as long as the gunpowder is put inside, it will burn on its own.
And at this time, those low-level military attaches of the border army had already waved their broadswords and cut down more than a dozen hesitant soldiers in succession, seeing that the effect was not great, a thousand generals suddenly took off their shirts and shouted loudly: "The time has come to serve the imperial court to seal his wife and son, it is an officer's, follow meββ"
Under his leadership, his own soldiers also tore off their shirts, and rushed up with their main generals shirtless in the winter, and the other low-level officers saw that their superiors were desperate, which one was willing to lag behind, and they also learned from the appearance of the thousand generals, took off their shirts, and killed them with red eyes.
At this time, the border army at this time of the Ming army, is still the strongest army in Asia, or the most bloody army in Asia, their previous failures, not defeat in these low-level officers and soldiers, their failure is the failure in that ** system, the literati fingers, the current officers and soldiers are still bloody, there are proud of a group of real men.
The captain of the firearms battalion, when he saw that the matter was urgent, he could no longer stop the officers and soldiers who were swarming up and had red eyes by relying on the rolling wood and stones pushed down by the dozens of brothers.
Gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and said: "Things are no longer possible, we are dead, and we have to drag the officers and soldiers for a while, brothers, we can't do it, come, pour water into the elm spray, extinguish the open fire inside, fill up the explosives, pour all the lead into it, we use it as a cannon battle, and fight with the officers and soldiers." β
Under such a decision, no one hesitated, no one was timid, and immediately according to the instructions of the team, a basin of cold water was poured directly into the elm spray, and then the water was poured out again, and then the gunpowder was poured into half of the cannon body as much as possible, and then the remaining space was filled with lead, and the two brothers picked up the elm wood spray, handed the torch to the team leader, and shouted: "Brothers, line up, let's go to the king of Hades to gather, and we will still be the Black Tiger Army there." β
"Brothers, let's goβ" The group was not even the slightest excited, as if it was just a feast for the brothers, and put the torches on top of the fire twist, and the fire twist was ignited, and the two brothers shouted: "One, two, three, jumpβ"
Directly on the high cliff, he jumped into the dense group of officers and soldiers with the elm spray in his arms.
"Boom-" An earth-shattering explosion sounded, and a high pillar of smoke and fire flew up, tearing a corner fiercely in this boundless darkness, illuminating the sky in that corner.
This loud sound was as loud as the firing effect of ten elm sprays, and countless lead bolts flew wildly in the smoke and fire with a scorching light, sweeping everything they encountered, the ** of people, the bodies of horses, knives and guns, and the cliffs, so that everything was mixed together, and it was impossible to distinguish them anymore.
In the long passage of the pass, it suddenly became a hell on earth.
Those who are not dead, as long as they are close, also have bleeding from their mouths and noses, and their internal organs are shattered.
Guo Weiquan looked at the sudden fire in front of him, and then the ground under his feet trembled, and he almost fell down, grabbing a personal soldier next to him to stand firmly, in this explosion, the 20,000 border troops stopped together, and the battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
"Beat the drums, charge." Guo Weiquan took out his long knife and pointed forward: "Don't die, killβ"
In the sound of the earth-shattering war drums, the border army once again slaughtered like a tide.
However, after a while, there was another loud thunderous sound, and the officers and soldiers in front were once again engulfed in smoke and flames.
"Don't stop, killβ" Guo Weiquan howled through gritted teeth, he had already lost all his face in the face of these thieves who were not afraid of death, and now, no matter what, he had to rush over.
The men and horses flooded into the small pass again, and then there was another loud bang.
After doing this five times, there was no more sound, Guo Weiquan breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the officers and soldiers who poured in like a tide again, and really breathed a sigh of relief.
It's done.
After the last earth-shattering explosion in the pass, a black and red mushroom-like cloud rose into the sky, standing on the ground, and plunged straight into the dark sky, as if it was the passage between heaven and earth, that is, the link between heaven and earth.
Guo Weiquan knew that it was the thieves who finally lit the powder keg, and they really had no way to stop the attack of the official army.
When Zhang Dalang was rescued, he ran to the battlefield and saw his Pao Ze brothers fighting desperately, Zhao Dahai saw Dalang and shouted anxiously: "Dalang, come here, it's dangerous there." β
"Why did you betray the cottage, why did you betray Uncle Lu, why did you betray our brother?" Da Lang screamed hoarsely.
"I have no children and no daughters, it's not for you, Da Lang, Da Lang, come here, it's dangerous there." Zhao Dahai's spear once again provoked the two cavalry brothers who were fighting back to the death, shouting.
At this moment, a series of explosions came from behind him, and a huge wave of air shook everyone at once.
After the last explosion, the flags of the border army were already seen flying over the ruins of the pass.
It's all over, and there is no going back.
Regardless of the pain all over his body, the captain shouted loudly to the brothers around Da Lang: "What are you still doing in a daze, quickly protect Da Lang and get on the horse, and report to King Chuang." β
When everyone heard this, they pushed Da Lang, who looked like a mad tiger, on the horse, and more than 100 brothers grabbed the war horse and rushed to the south with Da Lang.
When the captain saw Da Lang walking away, he immediately stood up and shouted loudly to the remaining brothers, "For the fathers and elders behind him." β
The rest of the brothers should make peace together: "Fight to the death and never retreat." β
Dozens of brothers were in front of tens of thousands of people, and they launched a charge with their bare hands.
