Chapter 354: The Loss of the Logistics Detachment
The morning air in Tianjia Town was so fresh, and the team leader and a member of the team walked out of the gate with copper coils and turned onto the street.
This street is only more than 100 meters long, but it is the most prosperous commercial street in Tianjia Town.
Suddenly, the detachment leader saw two young men running onto the street, and one shouted: "Thousands of Tatar robbers have come out of the mountains!" ”
Another shouted, "Everyone, get out of the way, that carriage is full of robbers!" ”
When the detachment leader saw that the two young men's hair was scattered and their clothes were all in tatters, he thought the two of them were crazy!
Can a Tatar robber run out of the mountains? No way!
When the two young men saw the captain of the detachment, they immediately shouted: "It's true, I'll see that they have cut copper wires!" ”
Yes! The captain of the detachment immediately believed it, and he drew his short fire and pulled the trigger, while his team dropped the copper coil and pulled the bolt of the spear.
The squad leader turned back to the sentry on the watchtower and shouted, "First level combat readiness!" Level 1 Combat Readiness!! ”
The sentry immediately put down the monoculars, took out a copper whistle and blew three short sounds repeatedly, which is to ask the team members to prepare for battle directly!!
At this time, the captain of the detachment also drew his steel knife, and he stood majestically in the middle of the street with a knife in one hand and a gun in the other.
His guards raised their spears in a military posture and aimed ahead------Come, Tatar bandits, we are not afraid of you!"
One after another, team members also rushed out of the gate with guns and stood in two rows very consciously!
As the first four-wheeled/horse-drawn carriage approached, the people on the street began to be chaotic, and several shops that had opened early immediately closed their doors again, secretly observing the outside through the cracks in the doors.
The actions of the logistics detachment have calmed the people in the town a little, and the Liuqiu Guards have already won two big victories!
However, what the team leader didn't expect was that more than a dozen people suddenly burst out on the roof on his left, and they raised their bows and arrows and crossbows to shoot at the team members!
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" Two crossbow arrows were specially shot at the detachment leader, and because the distance was only more than ten meters, the crossbow arrows accurately hit the detachment leader's neck, and he immediately vomited blood and fell down------
This surprise attack seriously injured seven or eight members of the team and killed three!
The rest of the team members and the sentry immediately counterattacked, and there was a chaotic "Bang! "Smack!" Sound!
But the men on the roof were very agile, and they quickly fell down, only to be hit and rolled off the roof.
The enemy has an ambush!
The squad leader shouted, "Go back to the camp and hold the warehouse!" ”
The rubble flew from a sharp gunfire just now, which frightened those people and did not dare to raise their heads, taking advantage of this opportunity, the team members carried the dead and wounded comrades to the camp and quickly retreated to the camp and closed the gate!
They never thought they would be besieged, they had no defensive equipment at all.
Another squad leader shouted, "Go and bring the boxes and stand on the wall to defend them!" ”
For a while, the scene was a little chaotic------
Zhang Hongfan was on the carriage and saw those pirates closing the gate------- he was just one step away, he thought hatefully!
However, he is not in a hurry, more than 2,000 carefully selected soldiers still can't break through this broken courtyard?
He immediately ordered a thousand men to besiege the courtyard, and the rest of the men followed him to storm the rear of the pirate defenses!
He had a feeling that victory was in sight------ and he ordered the thousand men to join him as soon as they had taken the courtyard.
They didn't have time to loot the shops in the town, they only snatched the three four-wheeled/big carriages on the street, Zhang Hongfan asked to rush as quickly as possible, and the commander Boyan was probably already at war!
He quickly left Tianjia Town with more than a thousand people and rushed to the front.
The sentry on the watchtower saw it clearly, and he shouted below: "Captain, captain, they must have gone to attack my front line!" ”
The two squad leaders panicked after hearing this, what should they do?!
At this time, the sentry was attacked by several bullets, and one of the bows and arrows was deeply pierced into the wall panel of the observation post!
Ah, they even have arquebuses!
The sentry was lying on the floor of the watchtower and still shouting: "The enemy has surrounded the entire compound and scattered the defense!" ”
The two squad leaders immediately divided into the front yard and the back yard to defend, but fortunately, the enemy was also afraid of the fire guns in their hands, and they did not dare to attack over the wall at the first time------
The two sides soon formed a confrontation, and the buckshot on both sides "chirped", and when it hit the wall and corner, countless sparks immediately burst out!
From time to time, someone was shot or hit by an arrow, and they screamed in pain------
The logistics detachment is small, but the fire is sharp; The other side is numerous and well-staffed, but has fewer firearms!
Zhang Hongfan's deputy commanded the attack, and he called the people who had been ambushed on the roof to inquire about it, only to learn that someone had reported it in advance.
He scolded: "If there is such a thing in the future, do not have the kindness of a woman!" Death!! ”
He ordered everyone to hurry up and tie up more ladders, and then divide into several directions to charge together, the other party is less than 200 people, even if there are firecrackers, what can I do?!
At the same time, he also ordered his subordinates to take out the explosives bag, and then arrange for someone to prepare to blow up the gate again, and attack in five ways to see what the other party does!
At this stage of stalemate, many people, especially young men, secretly went to the roofs and watched the battle carefully.
Three young men in a shop were also secretly watching, they were squatting on the second floor to peek, the situation of this battlefield was more clear than the sentry who was beaten and did not dare to stand up------
One of them said worriedly: "The situation of the Liuqiu Guards is not good------"
Another said: "These Tatar robbers flew in? How can they get through those barbed wires?? I've seen not even a deer get in! ”
The third said, "They robbed the proprietor's carriage------"
The three of them immediately fell silent, the proprietor was a begging medicine merchant, and he had always been kind to them------ but unfortunately the sky did not take care of the good people, and the carriage was worth a lot of money just for the four-wheeled horse------
They didn't dare to stand up, the sound of lead in the air was terrifying!
At this time, their owner also came up quietly, and saw him carrying two arquebuses and a bow and arrows------ what is he going to do?!
The proprietor also squatted to talk to them.
"I taught you how to load bullets, and I taught you how to shoot, remember?"
The three of them were silent, just nodding.
"Hehe, don't be afraid!"
The proprietor pointed to a smaller man and said, "Run quickly to the front, and do everything in your power to tell you what is going on here to the Wandering Guards, and if you can get ahead of the Tatar robbers by taking the mountain road, I will have a thousand rewards!" ”
A thousand!
That guy has gained momentum, and the owner is a man who says the same!
He immediately ran downstairs and stealthily ran to a mountain road, which, although not easy to walk, was the shortest way to the front.
