Chapter 222: Chaos 2
A fleet is approaching the port of Jiaozhou, standing on the bow of the ship, which has recovered the round head and round brain and fat Kong neatly, is also looking at the movement from afar, and the expression is a little uncertain.
"Proprietor, do you want to take a break for a while?"
One of the principals couldn't help but ask.
"Anyway, with our fresh water, we can still support it to Guangfu. Just let the little ones stick with it."
"No."
The hole nicknamed "Fat Hole" was neat, and these immediately reacted.
"We want to enter the port as scheduled. Let all the people on the ship pick up their weapons. ”
"Get ready to go ashore and come to the rescue."
After all, how could there be no weapons and armor for self-protection on the ships of overseas merchants, especially when they were still supported by the "official" in disguise, and there were many guards on the ships who were themselves soldiers who had been in battle and seen blood; Even if you temporarily change careers and do some part-time jobs, it is enough to beat the "peers", but it is worth the price.
"Then tell those hussars and Tianzhu people in the bottom warehouse that if you want to settle down well in Dongtu, you will give me your life to work hard."
As the rush to the harbor at any cost, there were one after another to hit the bottom and rush to the beach, and the sailors and guards who also raised a green flag also waved their weapons and rushed into the chaotic port area under the swagger of the flag, and more and bigger fights broke out.
"Someone will put on my armor, and I will personally go ashore to command."
Kong Liluo worked hard to twist the thick fat on his body, and made a righteous and awe-inspiring expression
"Why is this the case, there is no need for the proprietor to take risks himself. Just leave it to your little ones."
A tent clerk hurriedly dissuaded.
"Bastard, that's the most basic attitude problem."
"Besides, Lao Tzu hates these pirates the most, if it weren't for these dog things, how would I have fallen into this situation step by step."
"Don't stop me, just let me behave like this."
。。。。。
The scorching sun of September in Annam was still scorching, and under the wooden fence in an abandoned village, Shi Niu, a strong man who was already on fire, touched his cone head hexagonal hammer; Feeling this heavy coldness made me crouch for a long time, and some irritable thoughts slowly calmed down a little; and refocused his attention on the seven remaining soldiers of his own fire;
Only three of them were old men who had come with him to the hot and humid land of Annam, the other two had been transferred from other units after being damaged in battle, and two were roughly-trained locals from the supplementary battalion. As a result, their respective outfits were also different, with the three old men all sword players, the two armoured archers, and the local recruits armed with short spears and small pikes.
This kind of mixing and matching has changed from the original all-round arrangement, which is also due to the operational environment. This combination of squads is the most suitable for those bandits, barbarians and the like who have no structure or order to speak of.
After all, in this plain area full of river networks, there was not much terrain to ambush and defend, and there was not much chance of obtaining surprise suddenness; Therefore, most battles are spent in the cycle of discovering and encountering the enemy, and then arraying and destroying it; At least these days, he has participated in nearly twenty large and small battles with the team, and this fire has almost changed several people.
(Therefore, in the counterattack against Vietnam in later generations, after Liangshan and other places in the northern mountains that were taken by the PLA, the plain area where Hanoi is located is basically a flat river without danger, and it is impossible to stop the advance of the mechanized corps, and has to prepare to move the capital.) )
"Let me emphasize it again,"
In order to relieve tension and anxiety, Shi Niu habitually taught several soldiers under his command according to the teachings of the night school.
"Don't drink raw water. You are not allowed to drink it when you die of thirst... Everything has to be cooked and eaten.。。 ”
"Regardless of the corpses of people and animals, they have to be buried. Garbage and dirt should not be littered, but must be disposed of in a centralized manner. ”
"If you don't want to harm yourself and others, you have to do it strictly if you lose your life due to the epidemic. If you can't do it, you have to eat military law. ”
"It's coming, it's coming."
The lookout, who stood on the top of an old tree in a cloak full of grass branches, couldn't help but cry out loudly.
"Get ready..."
I saw a group of embarrassed earth masses in the dust and smoke, and they ran for their lives under the roar and shouts of the larger number of barbarian tribes. And after crossing the predetermined ambush location, he still ran away without looking back, instead of stopping and resisting and entangled a little as planned. Obviously, this so-called plan to lure the enemy forward is estimated to have turned into a real rout and fled, and it can no longer be stopped.
In the sound of whistling whistles, for a moment this lifeless abandoned village seemed to come to life, and suddenly many figures with bows and arrows leaning upwards appeared; And in the sound of long and short intervals, many arrows were shot like the wind blowing through the treetops, and they poured down like dense locusts, covering the barbarians who had been stretched out and strode forward, and in an instant they cleared a sparse area.
Even the brass drums they lifted fell to the ground and rolled away; Then a second salvo covers the rest of the area, and a third wave clears the concentrated pile; By the time the command to open the bow and shoot freely for the fourth time had been sounded, the brutes of the collapsed corpses and wounded had dispersed;
The rest of the brutes screamed as if they had finally reacted, and some of them fled on the spot, while the rest rushed towards this side in a chaotic manner, and then were shot down on the road one after another. At last only a few men rushed to the front of the village, and then on the fences and earthen fences they had climbed, they poked spearmen and pike darts hidden behind, pierced them, and knocked them down.
In the blink of an eye, the onslaught of hundreds of barbarians was easily blocked by the terrain under the low wooden fences and earthen walls, and the crowding and treading were never able to advance an inch; On the other side of the village, the sword players who were in charge of receiving the enemy had completed their assembly and formation, and suddenly rushed out along the edge, and immediately cut off these brutes who were several times their own and scattered them;
Therefore, this not very perfect ambush battle soon ended in the panic of the fleeing figures, and the soil groups that ran away also helped each other one after another and walked back, joining the ranks of cleaning the battlefield and mending knives.
"That is, the number of roads of the third-rate soil regiment, even the officers and soldiers I have seen are not as good as it."
As the leader of the team, the stone ox wiped the stained things on the hammer head in the sand, and said silently in his heart; It was after he had knocked down three brutes and smashed the head of a leader with a rudimentary crown.
At least he has transformed from the stupid stonemason who was so cowardly that he could only explode in silence to a righteous soldier who was willing to fight for the poor people in the world and initially adapted to the bloody scene. It's just that there is one less person under his men, but he was unlucky to be hit by the medicine arrow blown by the barbarians, and half of his arm was swollen, and he put most of the basin of blood to save his life.
However, the results of the battle were still quite good, and they also killed more than half of the more than 1,000 barbarians who broke through at least a small hole at the cost of more than 100 casualties with a mere regiment of soldiers and the same number of earthen regiments; In addition to the cave owner who was missing, he also captured and killed more than 20 people from the cave general, the head of the village, and Dulao, and captured at least more than ten large and small copper drums. In this way, the task of their regiment moving north to block the enemy's situation and to detect the enemy's combat strength was initially completed.
It's just that God doesn't seem to let them be satisfied, and soon after eating a portable ration with the cold tea pre-filled in the kettle, Shi Niu saw the smoke and dust that fled back from afar; This time, there were not only those soil regiments and village soldiers who went to chase and kill the remnants of the enemy, but even the existence of the same uniform of the rebels, and groups of three or five covered in dust and mud supported each other.
Their shouts were faintly heard in the wind.
"Quickly form a defensive formation on the spot."
"A lot of barbarians have come over."
