The forbidden army is just ordinary people, at this time no one wants to go out to reload the cannon, without loading the cannon, they will not be able to threaten the enemy hundreds of meters away, but risking the enemy's rifle to shoot out to reload the cannon is completely an act of death. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info (.o.co) At the moment, the artillery group and the forbidden soldiers next to the artillery group are hiding behind the shield, and there are seventy or eighty people hiding behind a small shield, like ants sheltering from the rain under the leaves.

At this time, the artillery was not loaded with anything, and the empty muzzles were facing forward, although they could not threaten the army in the distance, but they were a standard cheeky face, providing a lot of protection for the soldiers behind. The forbidden army hiding behind the defensive shield is basically safe now, but the army's shooting target quickly shifted, and the forbidden army who was still standing dumbfounded next to him was immediately subjected to a dense rain of bullets, and the position immediately began to loosen. The wounded who were hit in front were crying and screaming, the corpses of the dead were strewn all over the field, and the soldiers in the back were weak and restless, lest they become the next unlucky ghost to be hit inexplicably.

Liu Lihua no longer issued orders, but just asked the soldiers to continue to fire volleys at the unsheltered enemy. The advantage of rifled weapons in firing distance was very obvious at this time, although there were also musketeers on the side of the forbidden army firing at this side, or longbowmen who had been numb were shooting arrows in this direction, but whether it was arrows or projectiles, they fell less than half the distance between the two sides, and could not pose a threat to the soldiers of the army at all.

At this time, the attention of both sides on the battlefield was focused on the side of the army, and the guns were preoccupied with projecting fire on the unlucky ones who did not find cover, and the forbidden army on this side was miserable. At this time, several members of the Forbidden Army artillery team quietly climbed out, crawled to the front of the muzzle from the side, and quietly loaded the artillery. At this time, there was chaos on the battlefield, and neither side saw the situation.

But at this time, a new command came from the array of the new army, "March!" Let's go! Walk! ”

One by one, the New Army soldiers flattened their bayonet rifles, and those behind stabbed their rifles upward, and the whole array began to advance slowly, and because of the rough and undulating ground, they could not make a uniform step, but the formation was basically the same, like a approaching wall. The cold light of the bayonets shone in the sun, making the forbidden soldiers who saw it shudder.

At first, he wanted to flank the new army with the Xiang army on the west side, but who knew that a blue-clothed enemy army suddenly burst out of the woods and dragged his troops to death. Now the new army in the distance is approaching him again, but the van army in the distance, which was expected to appear, has not moved at all. Now I originally planned to flank the enemy army, but I was flanked by the enemy instead, which is really a waste of rice. Now he waved the long knife in his hand and yelled, "Withdraw, withdraw first, defend the camp!" ”

He did not dare to let the troops flee to the port of Champa, if he retreated at this time, it would inevitably become a rout immediately, and if he was hit again, it would inevitably become a rout, and once it became a rout, the group of soldiers under his command would completely lose their combat power, and they would easily be caught up and killed by the enemy. Rather than this, it is better to hide back in the prisoner camp, which was a military camp before, at least it can provide a lot of places to hide, reduce the casualties of your own people, after all, it can protect the combat effectiveness of the entire forbidden army, and at least you can negotiate with these enemies.

Although they had been shooting at the forbidden troops who had retreated into the barracks, the number of the army was still too small, and they were divided into three groups of salvos, and more than 30 people were fired each time, which did not constitute a substantial mass damage to the more than 400 forbidden troops. Therefore, despite the continuous casualties, the Praetorian soldiers quickly fled back to the barracks, and the artillery crew soldiers dragged the artillery upside down, and the shields continued to maintain limited defensive capabilities.

"Close! Close the door! The general of the forbidden army shouted loudly, completely ignoring the fact that a few wounded soldiers of the forbidden army were knocked down in front of the gate of the wall, and they had no courage to go out to save people. At this time, Nguyen Minh Fang's order to slaughter all the prisoners of war had long been forgotten by them, and as for burning the barracks and dreaming, this was the only bulwark to protect themselves.

============================= divider =============================

Nguyen Minh Phuong was inviting his father-in-law from Hue to dinner, and although the money of fifty taels of silver was still too little, alcohol was always a good lubricant for interpersonal relationships, so the two talked about some things that happened in Hue during the banquet, and then continued to talk about some jokes in the officialdom - although the eunuch was not an official, he was also a member of the system, and it was easy to talk about such jokes.

"Father-in-law, how long do you say it will take for the reward from the emperor to arrive this time?"

"It's all said that it's not a reward, didn't you see the emperor lose his temper, saying that you are not doing things cleanly here, which has made Champa Port now a burden to our Annan, and this money is used to develop Champa Port."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's development, when will this money arrive?"

The eunuch squinted his eyes and took a sip of wine, his fingers lightly tapped on the table, with an expression of "you want to hear the inside story if you don't give money", and then directly picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes on the table. "By the way, why is your food so delicious? It tastes so fresh, why is it different from what I eat in Hue? ”

"Hehe," Ruan Mingfang hurriedly changed the topic, "This is the goods obtained by the Dongfang Port thief, it is said that it is a hundred flavors, no matter what kind of dish, as long as you put a little bit in the dish, the taste will immediately become much more delicious." Ruan Mingfang suddenly beckoned, and a servant who was waiting hurriedly came over. Go, take a pound of Baiwei Xian and give it to your father-in-law. ”

This eunuch's face was a little unhappy, such a good thing, what is a catty? Now you have to ask me, and you are still slamming the door like this?

Ruan Mingfang is a good person, why don't you know what this father-in-law in front of him is thinking? Hurriedly stood up and explained: "Father-in-law, this Baiwei Xian is a thief who poured the goods from nowhere, and the selling price is very expensive, one or two Baiwei Xian is one or two silver, and there is no bargaining. ”

At the moment, this father-in-law is also stunned, what is it? A tael of silver is only a tael?

When the next person offered a strange paper bag, he opened it and saw that a large handful of fine, transparent particles were tightly wrapped in the paper bag. The father-in-law picked one up and put it on the tip of his tongue, and suddenly a rich umami filled his mouth, with a little bit of sweetness and saltiness at the same time.

"Father-in-law, this thing is the thief's Baiwei Xian, I don't know where they got the goods, as long as you put one or two in the pot when cooking, the taste will be much better, the umami is overflowing, and it makes people salivate." Ruan Mingfang hurriedly said, "This thing is very rare, you must know that the people of Maidno are now buying these things in large quantities and exporting them to the Yaning Continent." If it weren't for ......"

While they were talking, there was a sudden "boom" from the west, and before the two of them could react, there was another boom.

"What's going on?" As soon as the eunuch was nervous, the paper bag in his hand was loosened and fell down, and the subordinates on the side were quick to catch it in the air, and hurriedly held the paper bag and put it on the table.

"The lower officer doesn't know, it sounds like the direction of the rebels' former camp, could it be that the rebel prisoners are making trouble?" Ruan Mingfang only thought that the slaughter had begun, but he was just talking nonsense, and played Tai Chi with the eunuch at the table, "Come on, father-in-law, you might as well try this, this is canned seafood sold by the thief, and the black beans in it are tempeh, which tastes very good." ”

The eunuch is usually inland, rarely eats fish, and now it is a canned fish with a strong flavor, and it is MSG that stimulates the taste buds, and he is unwilling to put down his chopsticks for a while. This is exactly what Ruan Mingfang wants, what is needed for the massacre over there is time, and when the eunuchs here go over to announce the decree, the walls of the military camp must have burned down, and the moment is to persuade wine and vegetables.

The eunuch didn't get much benefit in the first place, but now that he has delicious food and a bag of Baiwei Xian, which is known as sixteen taels, he can't think about it now, anyway, the prisoners of the new army will not run away for a while and a half, and he recklessly ran to the barracks where there may be a battle, isn't he looking for guilt? So just eat this meal quietly, anyway, someone always has to come to report after the battle, and then everything is calm and then go, naturally there is no need to worry about your life.

After three rounds of drinking, Ruan Mingfang felt that the time had basically come, so he asked again: "Father-in-law, when will the money sent by the emperor for the development of Zhancheng Port arrive?" ”

The eunuch felt that it was about the same, so he touched his beardless chin, his cheeks were red and his eyes were squinted, and he said: "This time it is directly from the inner treasury, first of all, through the internal affairs office, approved the slips, and then to the inner treasury to withdraw silver, and then escorted by the forbidden army, it will not be able to come down for half a month, and I am afraid that there will be losses on the way to the escort, you know this......"

Ruan Mingfang couldn't help but secretly curse a few words, who doesn't understand? Escort 100,000 taels all the way, the forbidden soldiers have not been paid for a long time, one by one like red-eyed flies seeing the fishy smell, they definitely have to pass three points of fat, this money will have to occupy the city port, and it will be impossible to leave 60,000 taels. At that moment, he hurriedly promised the eunuch in front of him: "Then this matter will be hard for the father-in-law, the lower officials will continue to carry out the construction of the city port with this money, dredge the waterways or something, and start construction with this money, and ask the father-in-law to bother more, and when this money is in place, the benefits of the father-in-law will definitely be indispensable!" ”

The eunuch didn't speak, his face was drunk and hazy, just playing Tai Chi with Ruan Mingfang, he just didn't say anything. Just kidding, Lao Tzu drove more than ten days from Hue to get here, and the result was only fifty taels of silver and a bag of Baiwei Xian, which is too little, right? Although the benefits of Lao Tzu are indispensable at that time, how many can they have? At best, it's only one or two hundred taels, you must know that just dealing with the dead eunuchs in the Internal Affairs Office who eat people and don't spit out bones will cost a few hundred taels of silver, and in the end, how much can you get? Maybe it's upside down. Although this Ruan Mingfang in front of him said sincerely, but in front of money, everything is scum, who knows that he will not break his word and gain weight?

Ruan Mingfang naturally knew what he was thinking, but right now he smuggled almost 400 kilograms of Baiwei Xian from Dongfang Port in one go, which was more than 10,000 taels of silver! Although this thing can easily earn six or seven times as soon as it changes hands, but at the moment it is all pressed in his hands, Hue's sales channels are not ready, and there is really not much silver at hand, and it is really not enough to bribe the dead eunuch in front of him. At the moment, he had to make a false deal with this eunuch, and when he went to the prisoner camp that had to be burned, he couldn't see the prisoners alive, even if he couldn't pass the decree, this eunuch was also guilty. When I was bargaining with this dead eunuch at that time, I really don't know what these dead eunuchs who had no children and grandchildren were doing with so much money?

Just when both of them were calculating with each other, a small colonel rushed into the flower hall with a rolling belt, and finally tripped on the threshold and fell into the mud.

"What happened?" Ruan Mingfang only said that he had come to report the incident of the prisoner camp, and he didn't take it seriously, but he was surprised when he saw a hole in the shoulder of the junior colonel of Xiangjun that had been punched by a bullet. "What's going on?" The wound was so shocking that it almost immediately reminded him of the gunshot wounds on the fallen soldiers during the Occupy Harbor Rebellion a few months ago, "How did you get hurt?" ”

"Huh?" The eunuch was stunned, he had never seen such a wound before, it was as if he had been poked by a spear, "Could it be that those new troops are so brave?" Can being imprisoned also hurt the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court? ”

"Yes...... It's a rebel army! "The little school gasped for breath and gasped again and again, twitching the wound from time to time with a painful expression." The rebel army suddenly appeared this morning, and now it has surrounded the prisoner camp, killing and wounding six or seven hundred of our troops, and more than 100 of the forbidden army have been killed outside the camp. The small ones broke out from there to ask for help. "As he spoke, his face turned pale, and he suddenly fell to the ground and did not move." Come on! ”

Several family members hurriedly ran over and carried the little school out with all hands and feet.

"Prepare a sedan car! Go to the new barracks in the west of the city! Ruan Mingfang was very annoyed, he had obviously calculated everything, everything was carried out step by step, and suddenly he was robbed like this! The forbidden army, which is known as the elite of the Annan army, was blocked in the barracks, and it is estimated that they dare not stretch their heads now. "Go to the castle guard," he said, pointing to a servant waiting nearby, "take my piece!" Tell him to mobilize all his troops! We're going to wipe out this group of traitors next to the barracks today! ”

The eunuch couldn't help sighing again and again, he came here to release this group of new troops, but now that he is making such a fuss, even if he is not a rebel, the crime is now confirmed, and he immediately asked his subordinates to prepare their own sedan chairs, and under the banner of the emperor, presumably neither side will beat themselves, right?
