Arriving at the shore of the lake, the soldiers of the Eight Banners began to land. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The info team was disorganized, with angry scolding and shouting. The shore is a shallow area, and the Houjin soldiers want to wade ashore on the water, and the crowd is densely packed together, rushing to the earthen cliff on the shore like a market.

"Battalion commander, the enemy's vigilance seems to be low, when will we attack?"

Zeng Shi lay on the grass on the earth cliff, stared ahead, and said in a low voice: "Wait, wait until the enemy gets closer before fighting." ”

Everything was as usual near the earthen cliff, and the sound of known calls continued, and from time to time there was the chirping of birds. The sound from the jungle reassured the cautious Heshuotu, who ordered his soldiers to climb the cliff as quickly as possible and quickly assemble towards their designated destination. The crowd was dense and chaotic, distracting the soldiers of the Eight Banners, and suddenly a dozen grenades were thrown into the crowd in a volley.

Booming explosions continued one after another, and waves of air lifted grenades that had never exploded, sweeping them farther into the crowd, connecting the explosion circles. The Houjin soldiers who were caught off guard were immediately stunned, and after standing for a few seconds, with a loud shout from Heshuotu, several panicked Houjin soldiers ran towards the boat with their heads in their hands.

"Bastard, hold me up, charge forward, don't back down, pick up your weapons and rush forward!"

Heshuotu roared as hard as he could, puffing up and closing the team. The Ming army's swift and sharp attack made Heshuotu's efforts come to naught. Soon, the sparse strikers were stuck by the Ming army that suddenly burst out.

The Eight Banners Army rushed up and wanted to fight hand-to-hand with the Ming army, but the Ming army had a lot of eyes, they quickly threw out a few grenades, and blasted a clearing at the junction of the enemy's forward and follow-up troops, blocking the enemy's follow-up, and other companions took the opportunity to fill the position, and the remaining dozens of Eight Banners forwards were immediately divided and surrounded by the Ming army.

Peshuo Tu saw that the situation was not good, and he regrouped his formation while fighting and retreating. However, the explosions above and under their feet terrified the Eight Banners soldiers, and the ambitions they had had lost before they disembarked had long since disappeared. The terrified Eight Banners soldiers cling to their companions, trying to create a sense of security. However, this kind of behavior made them pay a great price, and the Ming army liked this dense formation the most, blowing up a large area. Tens of seconds later, Heshuotu saw that the situation was not right, and immediately ordered a retreat. At this time, all the Ming troops on the earth cliff rushed down, and they chased the soldiers of the Eight Banners in squads, encircling and annihilating them.

Just as the Fourth Battalion was fighting in the front, a company of the Fourth Battalion sneaked up near the boat and killed most of the soldiers in the back eight banners who were responsible for guarding the boat. The few who escaped, under the pressure of the Ming army, did not hurry to untie the cable, so they had to jump into the lake and disappeared. The Ming army did not chase either, and after a round with the main force of the three battalions, they took the back road and killed the main force of the Eight Banners.

There were enemies in front and behind, and the soldiers of the Eight Banners could neither advance nor retreat, they could only jump along the lake. The Eight Banners system was completely disrupted, and everyone ran around around the shore of the lake like headless flies, trying to find a glimmer of life.

Most of the soldiers around Heshuotu ran away, and the remaining dozen or so relatives were still injured and persevered. More than 20 Ming soldiers clung to Heshuotu's team and did not leave an inch. The continuous fighting made Heshuotu's personal guards panting, and the Ming army was disgusted with this endless waste of physical strength, and suddenly a few grenades fell over. He Shuotu was shocked, and hurriedly lay on the ground while shouting. Just now, he relied on this trick to successfully dodge the explosion of a grenade.

Daqi was blown to the ground in an instant, and He Shuotu's quick reaction saved his life, but his personal guards didn't have such good luck, more than half of them were blown up, and a few people who were alive were swaying, their faces, bodies and limbs were blurred with flesh and blood, miserable, and a strong smell of blood rushed towards them. He Shuotu understood that he was finished, and he glanced helplessly at the other side of the lake, trying to get up and stand up.

The Ming army quickly approached, and several big knives were instantly placed on Heshuotu's neck. He Shuotu raised his hands high, slowly stood up, and kept saying: "I surrender, don't kill me, I surrender!" ”

"Dog, I thought you were tough, I didn't expect you to be a soft egg!" After that, the handle of the knife was heavily pumped on Heshuotu's face, and Heshuotu's eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fell.

"Wu Liuyi, don't fucking mess around, if this slave dog faints, you have to carry him back to the camp, smart people don't do stupid things." Wu Liuyi smiled, withdrew the handle of the knife, and scolded He Shuotu while escorting him backwards.

With the fall of the banner of Heshuotu, the Eight Banners on the shore of the lake were completely chaotic and fell into the encirclement of the Ming army. In the bitter cold land outside the gate, the lower Jurchens had already worn out their tenacity, and with the encirclement of the Ming army, the soldiers of the Eight Banners found that they had nowhere to escape, so they simply took up arms and resisted to the end.

The Ming army liked this game the most, and they felt that the prisoner policy formulated by Instructor Shen was too cowardly to show the martial arts of the Ming warriors. Since Jiannu refused to surrender, it was necessary to see how hard Jiannu's head was tough, or the grenades of the Ming army were powerful. Several explosions tore the crowd apart, and some Jiannu who tried to resist set up bows and arrows to shoot, but unexpectedly they had no strength in their bodies.

The Ming army took the opportunity to rush forward, and the spears were out, stabbing the soldiers of the Eight Banners who tried to resist. The remaining 100 or so people saw that the situation was not good, and they threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground to beg for surrender. There were a large number of wounded Houjin soldiers lying on the ground, and it was easier to deal with them. The Ming army lacked medical care, not to mention these Jiannu. Sending the wounded Eight Banners soldiers to see the old slave became the only choice and the most merciful way for the Ming army.

The 4th Battalion withdrew from its position, and according to the plan, they were to be stuck near the important official road on the north bank, responsible for guarding, and at the same time monitoring the movement on the south bank. The three battalions stayed behind to clean up the battlefield, and at the same time stripped off the captured weapons and armor, burned the bad ones on the spot, and collected and took away those that could be used.

Looking at the naked corpses everywhere, the captive door shuddered. This kind of method, only they have done this to the Ming army in the past, but I didn't expect that it was only a few years, and the Ming army used it on them in turn.

"Battalion commander, what should you do with these corpses, just throw them here?"

Hong Cheng thought for a while, pointed to the water of Salhu Lake and said: "Isn't that a ready-made cemetery, just throw it into the water to feed the fish, maybe the Jiannu can catch fish that grow up eating meat in winter." ”

Hong Cheng smiled, quite proud of his improvisation. Not long after, the lake on the shore was soaked with blood, and a strong smell of blood emanated everywhere, which was disgusting.

Liu Wu was extremely envious of this easy victory, and he kept complaining to Shen Jia, thinking that it was a huge mistake to dismantle the first battalion system. Shen Jia didn't care about this at all, he smiled, quietly pulled Liu Wu aside, and said in a low voice: "Your battalion, under the leadership of Li Fulai, together with the Elite Company, is preparing to ambush Jiannu, what else do you want?" ”

After listening, Liu Wu was stunned, he didn't expect Li Fulai, who didn't speak much on weekdays, to secretly make such a big deal. Liu Wu thought about it for a while, and said hurriedly: "Li Fulai is not a lot of people, Instructor Shen, why don't we send someone to reinforce it?" ”

"Reinforcements, Li Fulai took away all the explosives in the first echelon, he just met an iron tiger, and he had to pull off a few tiger whiskers for me, we will rest here, the other side of the lake is Salhu City, don't go back and forth for half an hour, once Jiannu stops the waist and cuts off the retreat of our army, this battle will not be easy to fight."

"But Li Fulai only has more than 700 people, even if you add the sharp knife company, it is not enough for 900, and it is difficult to accept it if you want to expand the results of the battle." Liu Wu sighed and slandered Shen Jia's arrangement.

"Damn Liu Wu, you like to fight so much?"

Liu Wu squeezed his eyebrows, twisted and said, "It's not, these few fights have been smooth, and I feel itchy to watch." ”

Shen Jia smiled and said, "There are too many prisoners, and there are a lot of weapons captured, don't you still have a platoon?" How about sending them to the outpost? ”

Liu Wu's face suddenly fell, and he complained: "Instructor Shen, I'm also a battalion commander anyway, don't you keep letting me do the auxiliary soldier thing, okay?" I just want to go to war. ”

"Damn Liu Wu, you are still reasonable, you give me a way to send the captured materials away, don't think about fighting, we will stay here today and wait for news from Li Fulai."

The first regiment was formed less than half a year ago, and there was still a big gap between the entire army and the experienced Eighth Banner Army in terms of coordination and tactical execution. The reason why the last few battles have been won has a lot to do with the meticulous reconnaissance of the Sharp Knife Company. The Eight Banners Army crossed the lake, making it impossible to give full play to the advantages of its cavalry, and the number of troops assembled was limited, which gave the Ming army the opportunity to fight more and less. For this kind of small-scale battle, as long as the Ming military implements the battle plan in accordance with the rules and regulations, coupled with its own advantages and firepower allocation, it can basically be invincible. But if you want to win big, that's really an extravagant hope. Throughout this year, under the same conditions, Shen Jia could not see the hope of the Ming army winning the field battle.

Although the grenade is a good thing, after all, the number of equipment is limited, and the manufacturing speed cannot catch up with the large-scale use of the Ming army. The most important thing is the musket, only once the musket is formed, it only needs to be mass-produced ammunition in the later stage, the maintenance and manufacturing costs are very low, and the lethality is not too weak. It's just that the current progress of the musket, Shen Jia smiled bitterly, feeling that he was a little too extravagant.

"Liu Wu, since you can't be idle, go to see where Li Fulai is on my behalf, don't let your opinions be indiscriminate, this time Li Fulai is the commander, do you understand?"

"Instructor Shen, don't worry, I have the bottom in my heart."

Liu Wuxing rushed out of the forest and collided with Zeng Shi who rushed over. Zeng Shi stopped, glanced at the excited Liu Wu and asked: "I saw you wilting like a frosted eggplant just now, why after a while, you are like being beaten with chicken blood, what is the good thing, tell my brother." ”

Liu Wu's eyes widened, and he looked at Zeng Shi with disdain and said: "Your four battalions have made a big profit, and after you go back, you will evaluate the military merits, obviously the first share, when the time comes, drink wine and eat meat, your share is indispensable, his mother's battalion is like a bubble of shit, and it can't be collected, when the time comes, the brothers will complain about me, I can only shrink my head in the crotch, you still ask me for a chance on a dog day, can you give my brother a way to live?" ”

Zeng Shi was disgusted when he heard what Liu Wu said, and hurriedly said: "Hey, Brother Liu, Camp Commander Liu, Uncle Liu, you are deliberately harming me, you can say anything directly, I promise you, our brothers in the old camp, that's all, who is with you!" ”

Seeing that Zeng Shi was happy, Liu Wu laughed, patted Zeng Shishi on the shoulder and said: "Give me a little more grenades over there, before Li Fulai set off, he took all the grenades of the first echelon away, there is only one platoon beside me, I have to go to the front to inquire, there is no fire support on the road, I always feel empty, how about it, our old brothers, give it or not, say a happy word!" ”

Zeng Shishi's face twitched, he regretted it extremely much, why did he have to talk to Liu Wu. Liu Wu clearly did it on purpose, and he had already calculated himself. Zeng Shi was a sincere person, he hesitated for a long time before saying: "Just give you thirty, remember to pay me back in the future!" ”

"One hundred!" Liu Wu didn't think about it, stretched out a finger and shook it.

Zeng Shi looked confused, he was really shocked by Liu Wu's shamelessness. Zeng Shi shouted: "Forty! ”

"Eighty!"

"Fifty!"

"Brother Zeng, Brother Zeng, Zeng Shuai, is it good? Our brothers are going to be born and die, you can't watch my brothers go on adventures without one to rely on! ”

Zeng Shi gritted his teeth and said: "Seventy, no more, there is also movement on the other side of the lake, you must be guarded against." With that, Zeng Shi stared at Liu Wu, waiting for him to respond.

"Deal!"
