Section 235 Hand-to-hand combat Kill as a group
When Ji Qingwen heard the news, he couldn't help but panic.
It's not that the "Ming Wu Army" under his command will only use muskets as a combat method, but after the bullets and gunpowder are exhausted, they can only engage with the opponent in short combat, and the White Lotus Sect does not know how many martial arts masters, and the risk will be greatly increased.
Ji Qingwen in the "Jade Courtyard" has been looking for an opportunity to snipe Xu Hongru from a distance, but this treacherous and cunning White Lotus Sect Master knows the power of the musket, so whether he is pretending to be a ghost or giving orders, he always hides behind the crowd so that Ji Qingwen's several skilled marksmen can never find an opportunity to aim.
Since there is no way to take the enemy's head, it is natural that you can only fight hard with the opponent.
So Ji Qingwen reluctantly calmed down and said, "It's okay, after all, there are still half of the bullets and gunpowder, and it won't be the time to run out of ammunition." But you still have to think of a way out. I don't think we're in the wilderness now, but in Nanjing, Xu Hongru and they made such a big noise, Xiong Mingyu should have heard the news, and they should be about to come back, right? Moreover, no matter how brutal those White Lotus disciples were, they were not the opponents of serious officials and soldiers, as long as the defenders of Nanjing were killed, they would definitely be able to escape from danger. ”
Li Yan nodded and said, "That's right, Xiong Mingyu and them shouldn't have gone far, if they should have arrived a long time ago." Perhaps they saw that their opponents were outnumbered and were gathering their armies, so it was too late. ”
Li Yan paused and said, "Xiong Ming doesn't matter if they don't come. Brother Ji, when I came to pick you up, I had already sent Xiao Duozi out of the city to inform Huang Degong and Meng Hong, asking them to immediately lead the main force of our army into the city to meet you. As long as we hold on a little longer, and wait for them to come and join us, then we don't have to be afraid of Xu Hongru! ”
"It's still Brother Li who is thoughtful." Ji Qingwen praised it first, but then said, "I'm afraid that Yang Zhan, who is guarding the city, is unreasonable, and he will not let Huang Degong and them enter the city, then it will be troublesome." ”
Li Yan looked serious and said, "Maybe Brother Ji is too worried." I think Huang Degong is far from being a reckless man, and Yang Zhan may not be so stubborn. When it comes to big things, these two people still know how to measure themselves......"
Ji Qingwen nodded when he heard this, and said: "That's good, the situation is still within our control, as long as we hold on a little longer, when the army arrives, we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy." ”
He deliberately said these words very loudly, just to boost the morale of the brothers who were fighting in the "Jade Temple" and stabilize people's hearts.
And the soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" that Ji Qingwen brought into Nanjing City this time were all selected by him, and most of them went through the bloody battle with the Manchurian Eight Banners under the Jingshi City. And today's battle in the city of Nanjing, although it is outnumbered, fights
The fighting spirit was not strong, so they did not take the White Lotus Sect in their eyes, and their mentality was still very stable and calm.
But it was said that on the other side of the White Lotus Sect, people's hearts were fluctuating.
Those White Lotus Sect disciples originally thought that if they drank the "divine water" that Xu Hongru had cast, they would definitely be invulnerable, and they could rush over against the muskets of the officials and soldiers. But I didn't expect that this "divine water" did not play the slightest role, and those who should have been killed and wounded by the musket were still killed and wounded by the musket - and those who were not injured were just lucky and not hit.
Therefore, these people have long lost the sharpness they had before in the blink of an eye, but retreated dejectedly, although they did not say it explicitly, their eyes were full of suspicion of Xu Hongru.
Although Xu Hongru was injured, he still stood upright, with a fairy wind and a penetrating appearance and demeanor, and said lightly: "You are all new disciples, and your divine skills have not yet arrived, and your intentions are not sincere, so if you give you the holy water of the deity, it will be like a mud cow entering the sea." ”
He changed his words, not giving his followers the ability to think independently, but said: "It seems that there is no way, only by holding the thief in front of you first, can the deity calmly pass on your magic tricks." ”
As he spoke, Xu Hongru began to point and point out.
The White Lotus Sect was outnumbered, in response to the saying that "many people are powerful", but after a short period of effort, the disciples, who made a living by building and repairing houses, unloaded the door panels of the hundreds of surrounding rooms and made wooden shields according to the instructions of Xu Hongru, the "sect leader".
He also sent people wearing several layers of cotton robes wet with water, holding and carrying wooden shields, and killed them at the door of the "Jade Courtyard". The wooden door and wet clothes weighed hundreds of pounds, and ordinary White Lotus disciples wore heavy clothes and carried the wooden door, and they couldn't move freely at all, only the porters who had always been strong and strong could take heavy steps and barely step forward.
Seeing that the opponent rushed up again, with a shield in his hand, Ji Qingwen couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to fire a volley of guns at the White Lotus Sect.
The flintlock pistols equipped by the soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" were extremely elite, and the bullets fired were also powerful, piercing the wooden door held by the White Lotus Sect, and the power of the bullets passing through the wooden door was greatly weakened, and they hit the soaked cotton clothes, and finally lost their lethality, and could no longer penetrate the human body, but they were like heavy fists, hitting the White Lotus Sect hard.
Although these porters were all in the labor force on weekdays, and their muscles and bones were unusually strong and strong, they could not help but stumble under the impact of bullets, fall to the ground, and never get up again.
Rao is like this, the White Lotus Sect has finally shortened the distance from the "Jade Courtyard" to no more than twenty or thirty steps after such a stupid impact!
Seeing this, Xu Hongru waved his hand and said, "Go!" Rush me
Go up! ”
Xu Daoqing listened, and once again lit up the hundreds of fierce people in the White Lotus Sect, and was about to rush to the "Jade Courtyard" to kill.
But I heard Zhou Xiuying persuade over there: "Daddy, it seems that Ji Qingwen is really not easy to deal with, so many of us have attacked so many times, but there is no progress in the slightest, no matter how many times we fight, it will be the same, in vain we have lost so many devout believers, and some of the gains outweigh the losses!" ”
Xu Hongru glanced at Zhou Xiuying coldly, did not refute her, and ignored her.
However, Xu Daoqing intended to behave in front of Zhou Xiuying, patted his chest and said, "Sect Master, Holy Maiden, you can rest assured." This time, I will definitely be able to rush into the building and catch Ji Qingwen, the thief! ”
As he spoke, he changed his normal routine and rushed over first.
Seeing this, the White Lotus Sect disciples who had been summoned by him also rushed over.
The sacrifice of those porters was really valuable, and under their cover, Xu Daoqing finally led more than 300 people to rush to the gate of the "Jade Courtyard".
When he saw that there were some tables, chairs, and benches at the gate, he ordered everyone to remove all these objects, and then returned to the door and killed them first.
Because Xu Daoqing and the others were standing at the door of the room, they entered the dead corner where Ji Qingwen's department was shooting, and it was only a matter of time before the door of the building was breached. Therefore, Ji Qingwen had ordered the sergeants stationed at the door to put down their muskets, raise their shields, and draw their swords, preparing to engage the opponents who rushed in.
The strict training of the soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" on weekdays finally played a role again in the life-and-death battle - I saw that they had high martial arts, sharp blades, and the advantage of the terrain, and in a short time they had killed the opponents who barely rushed in.
Xu Hongru saw that although the attack from the other side had played a role, it was hindered, and felt that such a great opportunity could not be missed.
So he made up his mind, and immediately called thousands of men and horses to attack the gate of the "Jade Courtyard" head-on; He also selected four or five hundred construction workers, and went around from the left and right sides, giving full play to his strengths of climbing, and wanted to climb through the balconies on the second and third floors, so that he could meet the inside and outside; He ordered the boatman on the Qinhuai River again, shaking the small wooden boat under his buttocks, blocking all the waterways around him.
Zhou Xiuying still owes Ji Qingwen a favor, and only feels that Xu Hongru's deployment is a bit too ruthless, but she herself is also the "holy daughter" of the White Lotus Sect, so naturally she can't raise any objections, so she can only use the excuse of protecting Xu Hongru's safety, and she does not personally lead the army into battle.
And at this moment, the "Jade Courtyard" has been slaughtered.
The officers and soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" under the command of Ji Qingwen had no time to reload and shoot, but all took out their shields and swords and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the White Lotus Sect.
