Chapter 42: The scene is too cruel
After a round of bullets, Qi Heihu's men and horses fell again.
Qi Heihu yelled for the soldiers to fight back. However, the soldiers had not engaged in a single battle since they had been armed with muskets.
As a result, the scene of the first actual battle was so cruel and bloody, except for the dead, the rest of the people were already out of proportion.
Some people lie on the ground and don't want to get up, holding their heads and shivering.
Some people are holding guns, but their hands are so shaky that they don't know where the bullets are going.
The few who barely fired normally also shot at the boats on the river, while others shot at the convoy that was blocking ahead.
Still others simply threw away their weapons and turned around and ran.
The strength of the counterattack is basically negligible.
After another round of guns on the river, Qi Heihu's people fell down again, and even Qi Heihu himself was grazed by a lead bullet from his left arm, and the pain was scorching.
At this time, the officers and soldiers who used the convoy as cover threw another wave of grenades and cut off the heads.
Qi Heihu hid in a group of corpses, and as far as he could see, there were less than five or six hundred people standing, which made his heart ache and at the same time very frightened.
He soon realized that their operation had leaked and that someone had leaked the news to the officers and soldiers, so the officers and soldiers were ready to wait here to harvest them.
This is a mortal situation!
Qi Heihu was shocked, angry and scared in his heart, he wanted to know who the traitor was, and he wanted to avenge the traitor with a thousand knives for so many brothers.
But he also knew that only by getting out alive could he have a chance to find a traitor for revenge.
The front is blocked, the west is a canal, and there must be officials and soldiers waiting to block the mouth on the back road, only to the east, rushing into the city of Jining, there is a glimmer of hope for survival.
Although I don't know if the official army is arranged in Jining City, but at this time, there are not so many things to take care of.
"Brothers, withdraw with me! Run to the city! Run! Qi Heihu roared and took the lead towards Jining City.
The surviving three or five hundred people saw that the boss had run away, and they all subconsciously ran towards Jining City.
Qi Heihu's escape did not attract the pursuers, the officers and soldiers on the boat on the canal stopped shooting after shooting for a while, and the officers and soldiers behind the convoy stopped throwing grenades.
The officials and soldiers watched Qi Heihu and a group of people running towards Jining City in a panic like lost dogs, and they all showed a relaxed look of waiting to see a good show.
The hundreds of cavalry of the rebels listened to the dense gunfire and explosions coming from the direction of the dock, and they all became excited, and they all discussed: "General Qi's movement is really not small, look at this gunshot, tsk!" ”
"The sound of this explosion is those earth-shattering thunders that press the bottom of the box, this time General Qi is really out of his old ways, those earth-shattering thunders are all the treasures of his pressing the bottom of the box."
"We can't let these infantry guys steal our limelight, and we'll show the government how powerful we are in a while."
"Then don't you need to say, General Arima takes us, and the government can still please us?"
Facing the confident excitement of the cavalry behind him, General Ma had some bad feelings in his heart.
Although it was said in advance that it was necessary to make the movement on the other side of the wharf larger, so as to better attract the attention of officers and men and achieve the goal of diverting the tiger away from the mountain.
But this movement is also too big, and the successive explosions make him even more puzzled, when did Qi Heihu have so many earth-shattering thunder in his hands?
He knew that Qi Heihu only had a dozen earth-shattering thunderbolts in his hands, and they were all old antiques from the warehouses of the official army through special channels, and it was hard to say whether they could explode or not.
But in the distance, there were definitely more than a dozen explosions, dozens or even hundreds of times!
Wrong! Absolutely not!
There must be something wrong with this!
General Ma frowned and looked in the direction of the dock, but unfortunately he could not see much except for some smoke from the explosion, because it was too far away.
This made him very anxious.
What the hell is going on over there at the docks?
Could it be that the officers and soldiers were prepared and ambushed in advance?
But this is absolutely impossible, the specific situation of this time Childe knew about it, and the other soldiers only told them after they were temporarily pulled out, and they also knew very briefly, even if someone wanted to tell the truth, it was too late in time.
If someone does leak the secret, then the traitor can only appear in the henchmen of several of their sons.
So who will it be?
Figures flashed in General Ma's head, but he still couldn't determine who it was.
Everyone in this has been around Childe for a long time, and if you want to say that the latest person to come, it is yourself. But of course he knew that he hadn't betrayed his son, so who was it?
The more General Ma thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he began to fidget a little.
He can only judge the situation by the reaction of the officers and soldiers in the city.
If the officers and troops in the city go to the direction of the dock to support, then it means that the situation is not as bad as they thought.
If the officers and troops in the city did not dispatch, it means that the officers and troops on the dock have already been prepared.
So he turned his gaze to the city gate.
"General, the officers and soldiers are out!" Someone behind him suddenly whispered.
General Ma fixed his eyes and saw a large group of officers and soldiers pouring out of the west city gate and quickly heading towards the direction of the dock.
The officer leading the team looked anxious and shouted at the soldiers to speed up, and some of them were even whipped.
This scene made General Ma's hanging heart gradually let go, and his frowning brows slowly relaxed.
After the officers and soldiers had walked a long distance, General Ma categorically drank: "Rush with me!" ”
After saying that, he rushed towards the west gate first, and hundreds of people behind him hurriedly urged the horses to follow.
The charging position they chose was originally very advantageous, condescending, and the distance was also short, so they quickly appeared under Jining City as soon as they charged.
General Ma, who rushed to the front, had even seen the panicked appearance of the soldiers at the head of the city, and he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and suddenly whipped his horse and urged the war horse to speed towards the city gate.
Hundreds of horsemen followed closely.
Getting closer and closer to the city gate, he could already see that the gate was still not closed.
Although I vaguely felt that the official army was a little too slow to react, it was a bit strange.
But when they thought of a large number of officers and soldiers leaving the city just now, the remaining officers and soldiers were probably frightened by their own people, and maybe they all dispersed in a hurry, so naturally no one closed the city gate.
By the time the officers and soldiers from other directions arrived, they would have rushed into the city long ago.
The war horse is galloping, the iron hooves are flying, the horse general is on the horse, the horse chopping knife is held back in his hand, a mountain armor is like a god descending to earth, and the red cloak behind him rolls with the wind, and the end is majestic and dignified, and it is indispensable.
The gates are right in front of you, and you can storm the city in no time. When the time comes, there will be chaos in the city, and you will be able to take advantage of it.
The city gate finally arrived, and General Ma rushed in first, and the long knife was raised, and all those who dared to stand in the way would have their heads cut off by him.
It's just that his face suddenly froze, and his frightened eyes looked at the direction of the city gate hole in front of him.
There, rows of officers and soldiers in short gray military uniforms, large-brimmed hats, and muskets in their hands were looking at him with expressionless faces.
"Put!" An officer standing at the far left of the queue slashed his command knife downward.
"Bang bang bang ......!"
That was the last sound General Ma heard.
