Chapter 141: "Turning Away from Darkness and Turning to Light"
"Sir! There are still two kilometers ahead to Wenshan Port! A soldier carrying a 1628 rifle said to Shu Lihua that they had fled from a secret passage in Shabak three days earlier and were heading towards Wenshan Harbor. However, because they were afraid of being pursued by the counterinsurgency forces, they did not dare to take the main road, and they all walked on the forest path near the main road, and because they knew that there was an observation post set up by the squadron north of Wenshan Port, they also made a big circle to the west five kilometers away from Wenshan Port, and came to the vicinity of Wenshan Port from the west.
The clothes on Shu Lihua and the rebels at the moment had long been torn by the bushes because of the rapid march in the primeval jungle, and now they looked like a group of 'flowers' in an embarrassed state, with no military appearance at all. Fortunately, when they escaped, they stole a large box of dry food from the logistics warehouse, which ensured that they would not go hungry during the march, and it would not be difficult to obtain drinking water along the way, so they looked embarrassed now, but not hungry and thirsty.
"Okay," Shu Lihua sat on the big rock, took a breath and said, "Rest for five minutes, and we'll go to Wenshan Port." The soldiers around him were all lying crookedly on the grass at the moment, not wanting to move, and they all had at least one rifle by their side, and even three or four.
According to Shu Lihua's order, these soldiers collected a large number of weapons and ammunition around the deceased on the way to retreat, and even Shu Lihua himself carried an M240 machine gun, which was picked up next to the corpse of the special reconnaissance team stationed in the operation area, and along with a chain of about 50 bullets. Although these remnants of the army now look like a group of 'flowers', the weapons in their hands are very 'fine', the Senate rifles, 1628 rifles, shotguns, 1628 pistols, 56 semi-automatic rifles and machine guns are all available, they are full of expectations for the future to get better treatment in De'annan, you must know that what they bring is really a militaristic weapon, absolutely worthy of the eyes of the Medenor people.
Behind them was a field of rice, and the ears of rice in the field were all hanging low at the moment, some of the rice fields were half-harvested, some were not harvested at all, and the peasants who were harvesting saw that their strange clothes and guns on their shoulders had abandoned their work and fled. Shu Lihua sighed and said to the soldiers beside him, "Alas, you look at the land of Annan, and then think about the land of Dongfang Port, it is completely different, this field is so big, how many grains of grain can be made?" It is also harvesting with manpower. ”
"Sir, don't talk about it, we've all escaped now, so don't care how these mud 'legs' farm the land." The soldier didn't bother to get up, but just covered his eyes with his arms over and half-dazed as he spoke. A soldier next to him leaned on the stone and said with some concern, "Sir, if we are heading towards Wenshan Port like this, will we treat them as a squadron that will attack?" Do you want to change your clothes? ”
"Don't worry, we have such a good weapon now, they can't beat ...... at all" As soon as the words fell, I heard a shout around me, "Kneel down to avoid death!" Kneel down to avoid death! ”
With a roar, dozens of men dressed in shabby samurai costumes jumped out of the woods on the side of the road, and the leader rushed to the front brandishing a wild sword, and one soldier got up in terror and was beheaded by him, and blood gushed all over the ground.
"Bang" As the gun rang out, the samurai wielding the Notai sword shook all over, but he took a few steps forward and stabbed the tip of the knife into the 'chest' of the shooter before falling to the ground.
With this bloody opening, the samurai next to him rushed forward waving their weapons one after another, and the soldiers lying on the ground also got up one after another, and fired at the rushing samurai with the weapons in their hands, and the two sides soon became a mess.
"Get down! Hit the standing! Shu Lihua suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, recalled the encounter tactics that the veteran instructor had said, and hurriedly shouted loudly, and he immediately fell to the ground, raised his pistol and shot at the rushing warriors again and again, knocking down four. The soldiers around him also fell to the ground one after another, shooting at all the people standing with their rifles, the 1628 rifle was originally fast to load, and it was not as cumbersome as the loading of breech weapons like the Senate rifle, and at this moment, because their lives were in danger, the soldiers moved much faster. With a crackling gunshot, more than a dozen samurai were shot and fell to the ground on the spot.
The samurai were still screaming and rushing forward, but their pace had begun to slow down, and they were horrified to find that the group of people in front of them who looked like bandits had a terrible way of fighting. They lay on the ground, and the spears and katanas used by the samurai were too long for those lying on the ground to attack. The weapon used by the enemy is different from theirs, it is a musket, the 'fire' of the musket is powerful and accurate, and what is more terrible is that the 'fire' speed is outrageous. Although the distance between the two sides is very close, it is difficult for the samurai to please in the face of such a method of warfare that they are not afraid of death. With a bang after a burst of gunshots, the two sides suddenly looked bad.
At this time, several soldiers in some positions in the rear of the 'engagement' 'touched' the shotguns, and they immediately rejoiced in their hearts, knowing that their group of rebels had suffered a lot from shotguns when attacking the arsenal, and now was a good time for the shotguns to exert their power.
"Bang bang" With the two gunshots, seven or eight of the samurai who were still attacking in front fell to the ground, and many more ran back screaming under the dense rain of bullets. At this time, the battle was only a minute or two, Shu Lihua's side killed two people and wounded three, while the assault warriors killed more than twenty people and injured even more.
"They ran away!" The people around Shu Lihua said loudly, but they didn't stop loading the gun chamber at all. Shu Lihua nodded, while putting out the pistol cartridge nest, pressed the unbullet button, withdrew the cartridge case, and quickly loaded the bullet inside. "Don't let your guard down! The enemy has not fled yet! Reload your bullets and prepare them for the next round of attacks! After he shouted this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly again, these passwords are all standard squadron passwords, but he is already a rebel at the moment.
The samurai on the opposite side had retreated into the woods, hiding behind bushes and trees, not daring to probe. After a long time, when both sides were a little out of breath, a small leader of the samurai shouted in Annamite at this side, "Over there! Who are you? ”
"We are ......" Shu Lihua couldn't help but be stunned when he said this, what is his identity now? Although he used a Chinese weapon, he was no longer a Chinese soldier, and he came to join the Maidno people, but he had not been able to contact the other party, and he was a complete black household at the moment. "Who are you? Are you here to attack Wenshan Port? ”
"What?" Shu Lihua was stunned and said, "No, we're just here to join the Maidno people!" ”
It turned out that when they appeared in the west of Wenshan Port this morning, they were discovered by the local rice harvesting farmers, and the farmers were frightened by this group of disheveled "suspected bandits", and some of the farmers fled into Wenshan Port and reported the situation to the county commander 'Bo' Tano Hideyoshi.
After the hatred of the Ke Qiu Cool Ship Academy, I couldn't help but be the lonely
The knot is far away, and Sun hates to learn from the trouble
At that time, Yingji was also frightened, you must know that the peasants reported that they were holding muskets and wearing bright red 'color' clothes, and he had already heard of this kind of report, and that was when the Foreign Legion captured the port of Champong, and the Foreign Legion was wearing the big red 'color' clothes. At this moment, although it was only a small group of people wearing bright red 'color' clothes, they could not take it lightly, so they ordered the whole city to be under martial law, closed the city 'gates', and at the same time sent a patrol of about 40 people to investigate, which led to the conflict just now.
Jie Ke is far away, and Sun hates to make trouble, "Yes!" Shu Lihua stood up slowly, his eyes didn't leave the group of soldiers opposite for a second, if anyone moved, he would lie down again as soon as possible. However, the army on the opposite side did not move in the slightest, and the human wall only slowly gave way to a small path, and a man in an official robe walked up from behind.
"You said you came to join the Maidno people, do you have any proof?" Someone shouted again in the woods.
"We escaped from Champa Port a few days ago, and we were going to seize Shabak Fort and wait for the support of Wenshan Port." Shu Lihua shouted loudly, "But the squadron acted quickly and quickly recaptured, and we could only transfer to Wenshan Port." ”
The crowd in the woods here is staring at each other, why are they waiting for the support of Wenshan Port? They had not received any orders to fight, but in the past two days, the ships and land merchants who had been coming and going to the port of the East had been saying that Shabakri had been banging all night and had settled down at about dawn, and that there were hundreds of corpses in Shabak at night, which were densely placed on the training ground outside the castle. Presumably, what this group of red-clothed visitors said was not a lie, but where were these low-ranking samurai qualified to make such a decision, several samurai got together and discussed for a while, and decided to let a soldier go back to report the news, stabilize them here, and wait for Lord Hideyoshi to make a decision.
Not long after, a soldier wearing a light blue 'color' military uniform came from the east, Shu Lihua almost didn't feel scared at that time, this military uniform style and 'color' at first glance looked like the army's, he thought for a while that it was the Chinese chasing troops coming, and he wanted to run at that time. But a soldier next to him patted him on the shoulder and handed him a binocular, "Sir, it doesn't look like it's from the Army." ”
Shu Lihua hurriedly picked up the binoculars in front of him, and took a closer look, it really didn't look like it. First of all, the equipment of the Chinese soldiers is unified, the weapons used are unified, and the armed belts and equipment on their bodies are all neat and uniform, but the military uniforms on the troops that come look similar in appearance, but there are really enough bits and pieces on their bodies, and the weapons are even more 'fancy', and the people who walk in front are holding spears in their hands, and even the spears are of different lengths. He immediately let out a long breath and put back the heart that had just mentioned in his throat - this kind of military appearance was not even comparable to the Senate militia, let alone the regular army.
Sure enough, when they got closer, the team unfolded, but the weapons in their hands were all facing the sky, and they were not pointed at them. Shu Lihua and his entourage still lay on the ground and did not dare to 'mess' move, and the weapons in their hands pointed in all directions, for fear that any more troops would rush out from where they could not see.
"Ahead is the rebel army from Champa Port?" Someone at the back of the team asked loudly, Shu Lihua felt refreshed now, he had always felt that his name was not right, but this "righteous army" shouted out, which filled his whole body with a feeling of happiness - finally someone appreciated him. He hurriedly waved his hand to this side and said, "Yes, I waited a few days ago to come out of Shabak, and I came here to take refuge, and please take him in." ”
"It's easy to say, can you let me come down and confirm?" The person behind asked, "Although I believe it, but after all, seeing is believing, isn't it?" ”
"Yes!" Shu Lihua stood up slowly, his eyes didn't leave the group of soldiers opposite for a second, if anyone moved, he would lie down again as soon as possible. However, the army on the opposite side did not move in the slightest, and the human wall only slowly gave way to a small path, and a man in an official robe walked up from behind.
Seeing this official robe, Shu Lihua couldn't help but be stunned, this is the six-grade official robe of the county order, could it be that this person is the county order of Wenshangang? The man bowed in the distance, and then walked slowly. Shu Lihua hurriedly stepped forward, came to the man's side, and stretched out his hand to hug him.
The person who came was none other than 'Hatano Hideyoshi', who had ordered the closure of the city 'gate' not long ago, and he thought it was the squadron that had gone south, and he was so frightened that he was already preparing to die in the backyard. You must know that the squadron only has less than 500 people, and it has captured the port of Champong, which is defended by more than 2,000 people, and their combat effectiveness can be seen. At this time, if the squadron really went south, he was confident that his troops would not be able to hold it at all, even if it was not enough to add the two infantry battalions stationed in the military camp south of Wenshan Port. However, when the samurai who had reconnoitred the situation returned, they actually reported to him that there were no more than a dozen people, and claimed that they had come to defect to the Medeno people, who were friends with the Annan court, and at this moment they were constantly transporting troops from the sea to land at Wenshan Port and go to Jiezhen to prepare to drive away the North Annan army. Since they have come to defect to the Medeno people, they have also come to defect to the court of Annam. Yingji was overjoyed in his heart, and he was about to go out of the city to greet him. However, the officials in the city were not at ease with this group of people who came to vote rashly, and after some discussion, they decided to let Ruan Minh Fang's infantry battalion escort them, and if there was fraud in coming, it would be better to have the protection of the army. Even if the people who came really came to take refuge, it would be good to show the strength of the Shangang army below.
Now seeing the people who claim to come to take refuge step forward quickly, Eiji himself is also a little hairy, after all, he can't be sure of the authenticity of the people who came to take refuge, but he looked at the corpses of the samurai lying on the ground, he must be in their 'shooting' range, if he really came to kill himself, anyway, he will enter the other party's 'shooting' range, it is better to hold his head high and 'chest' to appear braver. However, the person who came really took refuge sincerely, and before he came closer, he first hugged himself, and then bowed down to himself, giving himself enough face as a county order.
Shu Lihua himself used to be Annan's soldiers, and he naturally knew these by heart, and now this pass has made the county commander on the opposite side look happy. "It turned out to be the county magistrate, how can I wait for the villain, how can I actually work the adult's 'jade' body, I am ashamed."
Yingji smiled and nodded, "Where, where, it is rare for you righteous people to come out of the thief camp and abandon the darkness to the light, we have to set an example!" The feat of feeling 'exciting' to you is! ”
