Chapter Seventy-Seven: "Shaking the Gun" is mighty
Because of the restrictions of the city gate and the massacre just now, a large number of corpses have piled up at the city gate, so until now, the Qing army that has cleaned up the corpses and entered the city is less than a thousand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the Qing army did not have many troops entering the city, Guo Sheng understood that he had to hurry up to deal with these people, otherwise the Qing soldiers would continue to pour in, and they would not be able to break through at all.
"There are not many Qing troops, if you kill them, you can get out of the city, and if you want to live, you can rush with me!" At this time, no passionate words have come to life.
As soon as Guo Sheng's words fell, both the neatly lined soldiers behind him and the routed troops gathered behind them all rushed up and rushed towards those Qing troops with a roar.
With these people dragging the Qing army, Guo Sheng's burden was also much lighter, I saw him lead fifty special combat soldiers, straight towards the city gate, and when he left, he didn't forget to say to Stilwell: "Take your people with me, don't get lost!" ”
At this time, there was still a large influx of Qing troops at the city gate, and if you want to get out, you must deal with these Qing troops.
"Grenade ready, blow a gap ahead!"
The special combat team will not throw all the grenades at once like the Qi Jiajun.
The city gate space is not large, and throwing four or five grenades into it is enough to achieve a saturation strike.
With several explosions in succession, the soldiers gathered at the entrance of the city gate all lay on the ground, and even if they were not dead, they were stunned by the loud sound of the explosion.
"Quick, rush out, the first and second squads are full of firepower, and the third and fourth squads are covering!" Guo Sheng seized the opportunity and prepared to rush out of the city gate.
The special operations team had a squad of twelve men and two squads of twenty-four revolvers, and they opened fire with full firepower, and soon knocked down a large area.
However, the Qing army, who did not know the truth, thought that this soldier in strange costumes, after a round, there would be a fire vacuum, and they were just about to counterattack, who knows what these guys in strange costumes were pulling on the fire gun while walking forward, and before they had taken a few steps, they held the fire gun and shook it vigorously.
"What the fuck are you doing? Jumping gods? "Not only the Qing army, but even Stilwell, who is following behind, feels incredible.
After all the bullets have been fired, they don't draw their knives in melee combat, or retreat to let the army behind them shoot, isn't this looking for death?
Soon, the second shot completely subverted everyone's thoughts, this jumping god really works?
Just wave your hand twice and fire again?
Stilwell's three views were subverted, not only him, but also the Qing army was afraid, because the strange army in front of him, not long after the second round, began to "dance the gods" again.
Human beings' fear of some things stems mainly from their ignorance, and those who are both ignorant and fearless have become ghosts under the gun.
When a group of special combat personnel who had finished jumping the "Great God" raised their guns again, the Qing troops at the forefront instantly froze, threw away their weapons, and fled.
"Stop the chase and keep going!"
Since the Qing army fled, Guo Sheng did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but led the team to continue to break through.
As the Qing army that entered the city was repulsed, Guo Sheng led the special combat team, as well as more than 2,000 soldiers of the Ming army, and quickly walked towards the river.
"Strange, didn't you say that there were fifty or sixty thousand Qing troops at the South Gate? Why didn't you find any trace of the Qing army all the way? Guo Sheng kept moving forward, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
This thing is really abnormal, the team has been more than four miles away from the city gate, although along the way encountered three waves of Qing army blocking team, the number of Qing troops that can be blocked, the number of people is only one association (about 4,000 people), Guo Shengli used the special combat team as the vanguard, a wave of grenade bombing, and then "shaking the gun" to open the way, and soon broke through the Qing army's defense line.
In just four miles, this army quickly broke through several blockade lines, but including the Qing army in the city, Guo Sheng faced a total of no more than 30,000 enemies, which was seriously inconsistent with the number of Qing troops before.
What puzzled Guo Sheng the most was that the army that finally blocked them was obviously more numerous than the first two groups, an army of nearly 6,000 people, but after the grenade bombardment, as soon as the "shaking gun" was flashed, before the fire was fired, the Qing army scattered as if they had seen a ghost.
When breaking through in front, in order to avoid being entangled by the enemy, Guo Sheng has always used rapid advance tactics, not seeking to destroy a large number of enemies, but only to quickly chisel through the enemy camp.
It stands to reason that this method of breaking through the encirclement quickly, coupled with the fact that the distance is not too far, the Qing army in front has no time to inform the rear of their encounter, so it should be impossible for the Qing army in the rear to know the power of the "shaking gun".
But why didn't the other party disperse directly before the shot was fired?
Guo Sheng did a good job of one point, he didn't understand the problem, he never wanted to think about it, it was better if the enemy army didn't go head-to-head with them, and the increase in the province would be more casualties, and his special combat team rushed all the way and had already killed seven people.
And those Qing troops who were broken through before, the casualties were not large, once the main general reacted and turned back to pursue, Guo Sheng estimated that he would have to leave another group of people behind.
The team continued to move forward for a distance, and all the doubts in Guo Sheng's heart finally had answers.
It turned out that Li Hongfei sent the receiving force in advance, which entangled the main force of the Qing army, and the reason why the Qing army scattered and fled when they saw the "shaking gun" was also because they were hit by Zhang Chao's revolver company...........
The destruction of Yangzhou City was a great joy for the Qing army, and Bolo immediately dispatched a large number of troops, wanting to take the opportunity to enter the city.
The 500 self-generated firearms arranged by the Qing army earlier also played a huge role in the siege of the city.
Seeing that the south gate was in danger, Stilwell not only went to the front line in person, but also threw a large number of grenades from the city tower, which barely suppressed the Qing army's offensive.
Although the city gate is broken, it has never been able to enter, Bolo himself is not in a hurry, he still has more than 50,000 soldiers under his command, even if it is slowly consumed, it will also consume Shi Dewei, not to mention that there is still the main force of Duoduo at the north gate, which is besieging with all his might, and now it is only time to occupy Yangzhou.
However, just when Bo Luozhi was complacent, more than a dozen merchant ships sailing on the other side of the river gave him a slap in the face.
Seventy Furlong guns (20 guns for a battalion of the new army, plus 50 additional guns) were lined up near the river, with an effective range of 180 meters and a frontal blockade effect of 30 meters, and soon a landing field three miles wide was created.
With such ferocious firepower, coupled with more than a dozen merchant ships docking, Bolo had no idea how many Ming troops had come from across the river, and an accident inevitably occurred, so Bolo had to divide his troops into two parts, one part continued to attack the city, and the other part was transferred to the river to block the reinforcements of the Ming army.
