The striker of the Turbulent has passed the Dirt Gate Field. In the town, except for a few old men and women who would rather die than leave home, there is not a single living creature. The thug tortured the old man and the woman, where did all the people in the town die? They replied in vague language, and in the morning a cigarette was lit on the side of Changping Mountain, and the officers and soldiers came.

A young bandit leader, dressed in a cotton armor covered with copper bubble nails, rode a dwarf, mottled horse, and proudly walked in front of the line of the tyrants.

The young bandit leader was tall and well-proportioned, with a delicate and handsome face. If he takes off his cotton armor and puts on a white robe; Take off the cotton helmet decorated with iron leaves and replace it with a pair of Lingyun scarves, and immediately look like a rich scholar. It's just that the miscellaneous horses under his crotch are really shorter. Not like a horse, but like a donkey. The rider's long legs hung from the side of the horse, almost falling to the ground, looking indescribably funny.

In addition to the fact that he did not have a decent war horse, he also did not have brightly dressed servant scholars by his side. A group of hideous-looking, dark-skinned, sour-smelling bandits surrounded him.

A spear with a golden shovel-shaped head and a red cherry blossom floating behind the scythe, was staggered by a thief and walked behind him. Behind the spears were a steady stream of thieves pouring out of the field. Some of these bandits are clearly dressed differently and stand out against the gray bandit colors. They were dressed in red and black mandarin duck armor and eight-petal helmets. Some people also carry long firearms on their shoulders.

This young bandit leader is Chen Xin, a former Chu army sentry officer who only surrendered to the thieves in January this year. He was originally a scholar in Xing'an Prefecture, Shaanxi, and defected to the Mo Chongwen Department of the Chu Army a few years ago. Mo Chongwen attached great importance to this Xing'an man who knew poetry and books and dared to fight, and quickly promoted the sentry officer.

However, Chen Xin's pursuit in life is not an ordinary junior officer. He heard that Genghis Khan had a spear, which was called "Suluding" spear. The spear is the military flag, where the gun is pointed, and where the soldier is directed; Everywhere you go, you can't see the wind! Chen Xin was fascinated, so he spent a few months of spoils to create a long spear, because the head and tail of the gun are made of fine copper, so he called this gun the golden gun, and called himself "Golden Gun Taibao".

After the defeat of Bazhou, Chen Xin and the battalion ran apart. Without eating or drinking, Chen Xin fished into the sea instead. With that one-of-a-kind bluffing golden gun, he occupied a remote village alone and started a business with no capital. Then he used this village as a nest to recruit separated officers and soldiers, and soon snowballed more than 200 people. More than two months ago, there was no food near Bazhou, so he defected to Yao Yuchuan, a well-known Jincheng. Yao Yuchuan also valued him very much, appointed him as the striker officer of the cottage, and allocated him 800 newly collected bandits.

There are not twenty miles from Tumenchang to Changping Village, and only sixteen or seventeen miles at most. After walking for more than half an hour, Chen Xin had already seen the red flag planted on the roof of Changping Village by the caravan from a distance. He ordered the thieves to slow down and wait for the next brigade to come up. But he didn't wait for the brigade, but waited for Jiang Chengren.

"Big Chen, don't be sluggish, rest for a quarter of an hour, and attack immediately!" Jiang Chengren ignored Chen Xin's tuba and directly called him a nickname.

Chen Xin and Jiang Chengren have a good relationship, they are both Qin people, and they are both from the official army, so they have a bit of a taste of heroes and cherishing heroes. Chen Xin's successful joining, which was actually Jiang Chengren's board. He didn't understand why Jiang Chengren was in such a hurry today. Increasing the number of troops one after another. It has always been a taboo for soldiers.

Jiang Chengren's face was pale, and it could be seen that he was so angry: "The young master is uncertain!" Fuck, Lao Tzu helped a dou! "He wants to go back to the village to play with his mother-in-law!"

"The big war is imminent, at this time, return to the army, and be chased and killed by the enemy, that is a self-defeating way!"

"No, it's not that he's still behind the door! I lost Lao Tzu to assist him for more than four years in vain! Jiang Chengren showed a look of hatred for iron and steel, and ordered Chen Xin: "Hurry up and fight here, Lao Tzu will go back and talk!" ”

"Then the younger brother will send three hundred new brothers to try it out, and wait for the eldest brother to urge the team to come up?" Chen Xin said tentatively.

"Okay, it's a deal!" Jiang Chengren nodded, "Don't kill all the old brothers who came out of the camp at the beginning." When the team arrives, I have to borrow my brother! ”

"Thank you, big brother, for your attention! The old brother dies one less one, and the new brother wants as many as he wants. Chen Xin quietly looked at Jiang Chengren's face, and felt that he was not acting, so he pretended to persuade him: "The eldest brother is loyal to the master, no wonder the old village mainly learns from Liu Xuande and entrusts the eldest brother to be alone!" ”

Ay! Jiang Chengren didn't speak, just sighed, turned the horse's head and left.

"I wonder if this Jiang fool understands what I mean?" Chen Xin sneered in his heart.

The world is in turmoil, and heroes are coming out in large numbers. It's not enough to be chaotic in the light of the day, and the cottage is also chaotic. As soon as the cottage was messed up, my chance came. Haven't I been training my brothers day and night for the past few months, just waiting for chaos to come?

With a wave of his hand, Chen Xin let his iconic weapon lead the bandits on, stopping the group until they were three hundred paces ahead of the caravan position. Soon, the golden gun pointed forward, and the three hundred newly joined thugs howled, rushing towards the position of the caravan in a disorderly manner.

……

Chen Youfu stood on a large rock in the central position in order to get a better view. He had authorized Lin Yan, the commander of a company, to open fire freely. The range of the guns was not long, and under the high-speed impact of the enemy, the opportunity to fire was fleeting, and it was simply unrealistic for the battalion level to give orders.

Liu Wenyu and several battalion officers stood behind the stones. Among these officers, Liu Wenyu is a staff officer, Shi Yunxiao is a trainee staff officer, and there is an old man surnamed Shi, who is also a trainee staff officer. This old man Shi had just arrived with the pack horse team two days ago. It is said that the bookkeeper who was originally a big family passed the Shu examination and training and was sent to the third battalion to manage logistics.

Liu Wenyu and Shi Yunxiao have been together for so many days, and the two are already very familiar. None of them were given leather armor, and Tie Ye didn't have a woman to help him put it on, so the two of them helped each other, so they paid two sets of crooked armor. When the howl of the local rioter came, Liu Wenyu felt that his hands were shaking uncontrollably, and sweat penetrated the back of his clothes. He felt that he had to do something to alleviate his fear, so he quietly asked Shi Yunxiao if he was afraid of fighting for the first time. And Shi Yunxiao's answer was beyond his expectations:

"Fighting is almost the same as fighting! You haven't been in a fight before? ”

Liu Wenyu was speechless for a moment. He has never been in a fight with anyone since he was a child. He was about to say something else when he heard a command from ahead, followed by a bang, and a line of white smoke rising. There was a volley of fire from the frontal firecrackers, followed by the cry of a wolf.

"They used two or three hundred men to attack a thousand of us, and that was for nothing!" Chen Youfu waved his fist, jumped off the stone, and walked towards Lin Yan's command position in front of him.

Shi Yunxiao hated that he couldn't see the shooting effect, Chen Youfu moved forward, and he and Liu Wenyu hurriedly followed. The old man seemed to be very unfamiliar with the rules of the army. He stood in place in a daze, and waited until the battalion commander took more than a dozen steps before he finally remembered that he was also a staff officer and had to follow the commander in chief at any time.

"Battalion commander, this is a false move!" Shi Yunxiao said while chasing.

"False tricks?" Chen Youfu snorted coldly, "These are two or three hundred lives!" The tyrants don't treat the people as human beings, nor do they treat themselves as human beings! He strode onto a series of observation points made of grain bags on the side of the fence, and asked Lin Yan beside him, "Can you use a cannon?" ”

"Not exposed for now! Wait a minute! Battalion commander, you see, they have no formation, no armor, no swords and guns, no archers to cover. Attacking the strongholds like this is only sending them to death. The last general thought that this was a tentative attack, and at most dozens of people would be killed or wounded, and they would retreat! The throttle also has a meaning, which is to entangle us with these rotten soldiers, so that we do not escape. ”

"I didn't want to run at all!" Chen Youfu said fiercely. Before he could finish speaking, the firing command sounded almost simultaneously from both flanks of the central position, and the deafening sound of fire rang out again. The thug cried loudly, twisted his ass and fled quickly.

It is Shi Yunxiao's duty to count the results. Taking advantage of the firecracker's retreat to reload, Shi Yunxiao stepped to the right side of the earthen rampart in a few steps.

When the smoke cleared, I looked down from the cliff of the central position, and saw sixteen local thugs staggering to death by the edge of the trench. A guy who had been shot in the waist was covered in blood, and ten fingers were digging at the dirt, trying to crawl back. Two other thugs may have been squeezed into the trench by the people behind them, and they were stabbed by the sharp bamboo at the bottom of the trench, and they were lying at the bottom of the ditch and moaning. One of them is obviously a teenager, and he is probably younger than Shi Yunxiao. His bloodstained face was distorted by pain, and when he saw the officers and soldiers looking at it, he showed a look of begging for mercy.

Shi Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, and then ran to the earthen fortress on the left flank. The terrain here was open, there were no unfortunate people squeezed into the trenches, and there were significantly fewer dead and wounded than on the right. Shi Yunxiao counted them one by one, and there were only seven on the ground. The casualties of the frontal enemy could not be seen clearly, because the deceased fell under the cliff in front of the deer and could not be seen from Shi Yunxiao's position. It wasn't until he climbed to the top of the rampart that he vaguely counted seven or eight corpses.

After figuring out the results of the battle, Shi Yunxiao hurriedly ran back to report, "Report to the battalion commander, nineteen people were killed and wounded on the right flank, seven people on the left flank, and about seven people in the center, a total of thirty-three people." There were no casualties among the four companies of the 1st battalion and our battalion. Two of the ditches in the fourth company are still alive, should we throw a rope and go down......"

Chen Youfu rudely interrupted Shi Yunxiao's report: "There is no need! You go and convey the order to Xu Shoucai, the commander of the fourth company of the first battalion, and ask them to draw a platoon and two platoons of the fourth company of the third battalion to pick up stones together, and pile them all here. The next time the local rioters charge into battle, Company Commander Lin may transfer firepower to the left flank in advance. We don't have bows and arrows, and this pile of stones will come in handy! ”

After sending the little man Shi Yunxiao, Chen Youfu turned to Liu Wenyu and said, "Staff Officer Liu, shout to the local thugs trapped in the trench and ask them to tell the details of the cottage." If you don't want to confess, that's stubborn resistance! The prince has an order, kill them all! ”

……

I only heard a burst of firearms, and the first attack was defeated in an instant.

The veteran who ran back shouted that the royal soldiers had powerful firearms, and there were deep and wide trenches and dense deer barrasses in front of the formation. They rushed to the high ground in front of them first, but as soon as they approached the cliff in front of the deer, they were hit with lead. Divided into two wings to attack, there is still lead in the middle. The central position of the royal soldiers was like a fort of protrusion, both on the front and on the wings, it was protected by a six-foot-high cliff, and there were deer barricades and fences on the cliffs, and if you want to climb up, at least 300 people will die. They were short of troops and had to retreat.

"If you want to attack the two wings, take the center first. However, it is clear that the position in the center of the officers and men is the most solid. I just have this little money, but I can't throw it all here. Chen Xin thought in his heart, "Jiang Fool has always fought hard, and it is best to let him hit it head-on." Contemptible......"

Chen Xin's plan had been decided, and he couldn't help but chuckle. Soon, the noise behind him grew louder. He knew that the team led by Yao Yuchuan and Jiang Chengren had arrived. He wiped his face, hid all his smiles, then adjusted his emotions and strode towards Yao Yuchuan's Chinese army.
