281. The life and death field at the bottom of the ancient locust tree (3)

The horses rolled in, and the dust they kicked up covered the sky.

The King of Reincarnation allowed Transfiguration to sit on a horse, his eyes slightly closed, and he looked like he was dozing off. In fact, this is his habit, among the thirteen leaders, the strength of his troops is not strong, neither the prestige of the king, nor the cunning of Cao Ying and the eight kings, nor the depth of the generals, he can stand firm, relying on ferocity.

And when he dozed off, it meant that another ferocious thought was rolling.

"The King of the World, it's already here, do you rush over directly or wait and see?"

The question of the henchman next to him woke him up from his own world, and he took a saliva: "It's better to fry it......

"What do you say, my lord?"

"Oh, this king is just thinking, how to concoct it after grabbing the inaction tiger cub, his heart is eaten by this king, and some times he doesn't eat people's hearts...... However, this king was a little hesitant, and he didn't know whether it was better to fry the heart and liver or fry the heart and liver, so he made up his mind. Xu Chang said with a lot of salivation: "Hey, didn't the jumping tiger hold on?" ”

Looking at the scattered carts in front of the village, Xu Xu frowned, which was inconsistent with his original plan. They first hyped that the Jumping Stream Tiger would go out to plunder, and then when they jumped out of the stream, they also made a big splash, originally thinking that after attracting Yu Guozhen, the Jumping Stream Tiger held on for a period of time with 600 people, and waited for him to arrive and then attack inside and outside. But now it seems that although the jumping tiger has made all kinds of preparations, it has not even lasted two quarters of an hour in front of Yu Guozhen's guards!

This made Xu Bian have to reassess Yu Guozhen's combat effectiveness, and he waved his hand: "Surround first, don't worry, don't worry!" ”

But then, he changed his mind again: "No, it's still fighting inside, rush, rush in!" ”

He said this because he could hear the sounds of fighting and the clash of weapons in the village, and even the continuous sound of fire. If the sound of the fight and the sound of the collision of weapons can still be faked, but he can still distinguish the sound of scolding in a mouthful of Shaanxi, and the sound of fire guns will not lie. If it's a trap, it's enough to have a front, and to make a fire crackle is a waste of money.

Under his strict order, a hundred horsemen rushed along the avenue towards the gate of the village.

Xu Chang really studied Yu Guozhen's battle examples, and he found that Yu Guozhen had many tricks on the battlefield, and his favorite use was to plant fire, and ignite and detonate it when the enemy gathered. In the battle of Zhegao River, the prince of Hengtian Wang suffered this loss twice by the way, and he had a lesson from his past, so he would be careful. Therefore, he did not attack with the whole army, but attacked in batches with 100 cavalry and 100 cavalry, so that even if Yu Guozhen in the village improved in continuous fighting, his enemies also improved in continuous fighting.

A hundred cavalry soon approached the entrance of the village, and just as they were about to leap in, several tripwires suddenly crossed the entrance of the village.

The horsemen were given permission to confess, and were therefore extremely cautious, and when they saw the stumbling ropes rising, they immediately stopped their horses, and the horses neighed, but then they realized that the purpose of the stumbling ropes was not to trip them, but only to stop them.

Because a squad of musketeers was already lined up in front of them, the inquisitors of the muskets had been lit, and as they fired, there was a thud of thumping!

In May last year, Yu Guozhen got the Spaniard Garcia? Louis brought Sur muskets, these muskets were tested in the Battle of Annam, not only that, Yu Guozhen also ordered Ji Xun to lead the craftsmen to set up a special musket research and development team, the whole group is composed of fifteen people, all of whom are the best blacksmiths found from the more than 40,000 immigrants.

Their first step was to create a replica of the Sur musket, and in June the first pure imitation musket was made, but the results were unsatisfactory, with only two of the six guns being good, and one of the craftsmen was wounded during the trial. The next step is hard work and repeated experimentation.

In November, when Yu Guozhen was preparing to return to Nanzhili, the musket "Hu Weiyi", which had been improved and finalized by the Xinxiang musket research and development team, officially appeared, which meant that the Xinxiang Iron Casting Workshop began to be able to produce its own most advanced arquebuses of this era. At present, the production is still very small, about 100 sprigs per month, because of the lack of skilled craftsmen, so this capacity is already the limit.

Therefore, now only some of the Tiger Guards have changed their outfits to the "Tiger Guards", and this is the case, this death barrage composed of a hundred "Tiger Guards" is enough to cause great damage to the hundred stopped rogues. Almost the next moment they erupted in anger, more than thirty thieves had fallen under their horses.

"Shhh The Reincarnation King took a breath of cold air like a toothache, and sure enough, this Yu puppy set a trap!

The rogue cavalry, who had grown old from battle, did not need to be commanded behind him, so they turned their horses and galloped sideways, avoiding them from the front before the second round of musket fire in the village. If it weren't for the stumbling block, they could even try to rush into the stockade, and if they could get within ten feet, the battle would have been won.

"This puppy is really deceitful, and there is an ambush!" A thief beside the King of the World-changing scolded.

"Let him be as deceitful as a fox, and now he will follow our way!" But the king of the reincarnation laughed: "He is the two hundred people, let's pile him to death, brothers, surround the stockade, Hugh let him escape!" ”

Although he had lost more than thirty surnames as soon as they met, the Reincarnation King was not so discouraged, he knew where his advantages were.

With his order, the thieves scattered left and right, surrounding the village. However, the thieves on the other three sides are mainly to prevent the guards in the village from slipping away, and the main force is still by the side of the reincarnated king, confronting the guards at the entrance of the village.

"Hold the plate, attack?" A thief next to him shouted.

"Fool, what's the hurry, just surround him, after a while, more and more people will come, and we will have our own foot soldiers to attack." The King of Reincarnation sneered: "Cao Ying only asked me to bring these two thousand people, but I didn't know that there were five thousand people behind me, and at most in one hour, they would also arrive!" ”

Compared with attacking Chuzhou, which has artillery at the head of the city, it is much easier to attack this small village, and the credit is not small.

"Childe, they just surrounded the stockade, and they didn't attack from all sides." Shi Tai climbed on the big locust tree and looked around.

Originally, Yu Guozhen wanted to arrange a guard to go up to observe the enemy's situation, but Shi Tai volunteered and climbed up without waiting for Yu Guozhen to stop him. He was extremely agile, and Yu Guozhen was also happy to see him, and after hearing what he said, Yu Guozhen asked: "Are you afraid of so many rogues?" ”

"Don't be afraid! Yu Gongzi is here, I'm not afraid at all! ”

Yu Guozhen laughed: "That being the case, I don't want to disappoint you." If the thieves don't come to attack me, I'll go and be thieves, Boguang, and line up! ”

As Tian Boguang shouted, a hundred guards marched out of the entrance of the village, and they stood in a horizontal line at the entrance of the village, looking as if they were about to attack the Liukou.

When the King of Reincarnation saw this scene, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "This little thief is not slow to react, he knows that he can't wait for death in the village, but he just relies on these people to come out, isn't he looking for death?" ”

"King, shall we?" The thief next to him had been waiting impatiently.

The most common tactic of their rogue warfare is to rush up and fight, and if they fight smoothly, they will rush up, and if they fight unfavorably, they will scatter in a hurry. Therefore, these few people who don't like to use their brains are desperately urging the reincarnation king.

"Don't be in a hurry, let's retreat, if we attack at this time, the thief will retreat to the stockade. The thief has no other skills, only a firearm with a sharp ear, which can pull him out, and we will outflank him again...... You don't have to wait for the back team to come, you can win big. ”

Following his orders, the thieves slowly retreated, while the line of guards gradually approached. As soon as the two sides advanced and retreated, the battle line advanced more than ten zhang outside the village.

In the heart of the King of the Changed World, twenty zhang is a more ideal distance, and at this time, he will assault with his whole army, at most one or two rounds of muskets, and then he can break in front of the guard. When the cavalry is used against the foot soldiers, it will be a completely one-sided slaughter.

But as if he knew what was on his mind, Jiawei stopped at a distance of fifteen zhang, he just retreated, and Jiawei didn't take a step forward. The Reincarnated King hesitated slightly, and at this distance, it was very likely that he would retreat into the musket cover of the stockade when he suddenly reached half of the guards.

He was weighing in when suddenly, behind him, there was the sound of horses' hooves.

The King of Reincarnation was slightly stunned, his first thought was that King Chuang and Cao Ying were not at ease with him, so they transferred a cavalry to support. After all, Yu Guozhen only has 200 guards, and they all know very well that he still has 400 people in Xiang'an, but those 400 people are all new people, and Yu Guozhen did not transfer them.

He looked back and saw behind them a troop of cavalry rolling in, and he couldn't tell how many there were. But at the sight of the black helmet and green military uniform, the King's heart seemed to stop beating: how could this be!

Yu Guozhen is only two hundred riders, how can he still have people behind him!

Bravado?

No, it's a trick!

In an instant, countless thoughts were churning in the mind of the Reincarnated King, and before he could come up with his final decision, the enemy horse behind him had already burst to a distance of less than twenty feet from his back!

The Reincarnated King realized that he was now in an extremely awkward situation, with the enemy cavalry behind him that had fully accelerated, and the enemy musket array in front of him, but he was still there wondering where the enemy cavalry behind him came from, this was the way to die!

"Rush, break into the village!"

At this moment, he knew that it would be the most foolish thing to do to turn back and fight, so he swung his sword in the direction of the village and shouted hoarsely.

This was the most correct move, if they could storm the stockade, they had 2,000 men, and there were 5,000 foot reinforcements, and the defenders could hold on. Yu Guozhen didn't want the guards to suffer too much loss, and he would not attack hard, and then the battle would be over.

But unfortunately, just as he made a decision, the hundred guards who came out suddenly turned around and ran.

Although they were wearing armor, these guards were still not slow, and they soon ran into the staggering carts, and at this time, the cavalry of the Reincarnated King began to accelerate.

This time, the King of Reincarnation has made up his mind that no matter how big the loss is, he will rush into the village at any cost!
