Zhang Cheng knelt down for Ye Bingzhong very cooperatively, and almost licked his tongue to the soles of his shoes: "I am willing to die for adults!" ”

Ye Bingzhong pointed to the Panshi Village and said with high spirits: "As soon as the red thief responds to the situation, I already know everything about it, and if the Panshi Village is looking at the pattern, there is a lack of a pioneer officer like you!" ”

Zhang Cheng wanted to mix up vaguely: "Under the mark, lead the team to rush!" ”

"No!" Ye Bingzhong was not ambiguous: "There are only two hundred red thieves in the village, and you have to guard three gates, you have to take down the rock village this time!" ”

"Please give me some advice."

Ye Bingzhong continued to analyze: "The red thief spared the medicine, and when our soldiers advanced to thirty or forty paces to shoot, it was obvious that there were not many medicines in the village. ”

"Your Excellency is right!"

"Zhang Dusi, you take a hundred townsmen to climb the village first, one hundred and fifty spearmen to cover behind, and sixty rattan players to defend the spearmen, and go straight to the north gate, so as to defeat in a battle!"

"Zhuo guerrilla, you send eighty soldiers to harass the east gate, Ruifutai, please send a hundred spearmen to attack the west gate, so as to contain the thieves and prevent them from reinforcing the north gate!"

This is the largest offensive of the Qing army so far, and nearly 500 soldiers have been dispatched in one go, but the main force is placed at the north gate, in which there are 300 soldiers under the command of Zhang Cheng himself, and the other two wings are sideways.

With the order of Ye Zongbing, the first to go out was a hundred village warriors, all of whom were carefully selected outlaws, either erecting a long ladder, or holding a knife and a gun, shouting loudly, and walked over quickly.

Behind is one hundred and fifty shotguns, but also the famous quasi-head guns of the various battalions in Wenzhou, followed by Xiang Yong, there are sixty rattan players and sword and shield soldiers in front of him, they set up the rattan cards and round shields in their hands, and the shotspearmen are guarded.

Zhang Cheng felt that such a luxurious equipment, don't look at such a wall, even ordinary county towns can be broken, but he still didn't forget to cheer up the villagers: "As long as the rock village is opened, not only will the knife not be sealed for three days, but the first person will be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver and a meritorious card!" ”

As for the shotguns, there is also a commendation: "As long as you shoot well with shotguns, you will be paid three months' salary, and I will never break my word!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, one hundred and fifty shotguns had already slammed towards the wall, and several small cannons were also bombarded vigorously, but the accuracy was very poor, and they did not hit the wall at all.

The two sides responsible for containment have taken the lead in receiving the fire, and the villagers are also working hard, desperately running forward with long ladders.

At this time, the brave team responsible for the defense of the walled wall was silent, and Sun Huzi cheered up his brothers: "Lao Tzu has been a green battalion soldier for decades, and it is not clear what tricks Lao Tzu is playing by Ye Dog Officer, let it get close and fight again, Lao Tzu will not make a noise, and no one is allowed to fire!" ”

It wasn't until Xiang Yong rushed to about thirty steps in front of the village that Sun Huzi roared: "Release!" ”

The backbone of the Fenyong team is the surrendered green battalion soldiers and village braves, don't look at the fact that they have joined Liu Chang's small group for a short time, but they have a feeling of being reborn, and they already have the feeling of being forbidden.

"Woohoo!"

Although the shotgun was not a sharp weapon, it was a lot of power to concentrate fire on a distance of thirty or forty paces, and I saw that the formation of Xiang Yong was like a wave of wheat cut by a sickle, and a large platoon of people fell at once.

It's just that this group of villagers are indeed carefully selected outlaws, and when they heard the gunshots, not only did they not retreat, but shouted loudly: "Rush into the rock village, and don't seal the knife for three days!" ”

They set up a ladder and rushed forward quickly, just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the brave team to reload and rush directly to the wall, seeing their figures getting closer and closer, the projectiles of the shotgun were also flying on the wall, Sun Huzi while loading ammunition, while shouting: "If you want to die, come!" ”

"Boom, boom!"

Now this round of guns is simply directly against the wall of the village standing Xiang Yong directly down, in such a short distance, the shotgun caused quite a staggering casualties, even if Xiang Yong is an outlaw, but the left and right are dead and wounded The feeling of death and injury also made them unable to parry, threw down the ladder and the weapon in their hands and retreated.

Zhang Cheng was heartbroken when he saw this scene, and shouted loudly: "Shotgunners press, shotgunners press me!" ”

One hundred and fifty shotgunners slowly advanced under the arch guard of rattan cards and round shields, and fired projectiles towards the wall: "The red thief has not much medicine, the shotgunner will work hard to defeat the red thief!" ”

The two sides launched a shootout in the air, and Zhang Cheng also sent two personal soldiers in an attempt to reorganize the retreating Xiangyong and rush again.

Sharp projectiles flew in the air, Zhang Cheng thought that his side would have the absolute upper hand, after all, there were only about fifty bird guns on the opposite side, and there were one hundred and fifty quasi-head guns that were famous in Wenzhou Town.

It's just that as soon as the battle began, Zhang Cheng found that his shotgun formation had been blown around, and someone fell to the ground every moment.

On the other hand, the Red Turban Army, they hid behind the wall, took advantage of it, and desperately bombarded the Green Battalion soldiers, and only when they were lucky could they injure a Red Thief.

And the power of the shotgun has been a big difference with the Red Turban Army, at this distance, it is difficult for the medicine to hit the wall, often before it has flown to the wall, the other party not only occupies a condescending advantage, but also the power of the medicine is very large, not only after the bullet is white smoke, unlike the Qing army here is white smoke, has been hit by the projectile often fell to the ground on the spot.

Just when Zhang Cheng was determined to let the shotgunmen take thirty steps forward and bombard again, the wall suddenly had a lot of heads, and a round of guns came over, and five or six soldiers were shot immediately, Zhang Cheng saw the Red Turban Army coming from the West Gate, and couldn't help but secretly scolded the incompetence of the Rui Governor's Mansion: "It is said that the Eight Banners are unreliable, but I didn't expect that this Mengba Banners is also a rice bucket to fight." ”

Twenty foreign guns were added to the opposite side, but the power of these twenty foreign guns was even better than forty bird guns, and this kind of confrontation soon became a one-sided game in which the shotgunners fell to the ground like dumplings.

When Zhang Cheng saw this situation, he also retreated with the soldiers, and Ye Bingzhong was so angry that he wanted to kill: "Zhang Dusi, you are like this for me!" ”

Zhang Cheng saw that something was wrong, and immediately put the blame on Ruichun: "It's really the red turban thieves who transferred fifty foreign guns from the West Gate, and the bullets were like rain, and our army had too few shotguns, so we were forced to retreat!" ”

Ye Bingzhong was half convinced, he didn't expect that the medicine in the Panshi Village was endless, and he asked again about the signs that he had not been exhausted for so long: "How many casualties have our soldiers had?" ”

Zhang Cheng hurriedly went down to make a rough count, and the final number made Ye Bingzhong feel painful, more than 80 people were killed and injured in the main attack of the North Gate alone, and there were also a number of dead and wounded at the East Gate and the West Gate.

However, he also felt the details of the defenders, there are indeed not many guards in the village, especially the defenders at the east gate are the weakest, but there is also a mountain splitting cannon there: "Zhang Dusi, give you one last chance!" If you can't take it down, rectify the Fa on the spot! ”

He was already determined to use crowd tactics.
