Chapter 100: Killing (3)
The Ming army, who was watching the battle from behind, erupted into a long, unstoppable cheer. www.biquge.info On the battlefield, the Ming army, which was also shocked by the combat effectiveness of the friendly army, was in ecstasy, and the morale was high, under the command of the officer, the Ming army once again inserted itself in front of the guard, and this time the Miao people were no longer as arrogant and arrogant as before.
The faces of the leaders were ugly, and more than one person asked to withdraw their own soldiers, but the second brother was not allowed, but Bao Weng, who has always loved to sing the opposite, stood on the side of the second brother this time. He roared viciously at the leader who was shouting for the withdrawal of troops: "Now as long as one person dares to run, we will all be finished!" If we can't keep this team, how can we go to see the general then! How to have the face to ask for more clove slaves! ”
He turned around suddenly, waved his hand and chopped down, cutting down a small tree with the thickness of his wrist, barely calculated a little bit of evil anger in his heart, squinted his eyes and said gloomily: "If anyone dares to say that he will withdraw, look at this tree first, and then think about whether your neck is hard, or my knife is hard!" ”
The second brother looked at him with a dull gaze, then looked away, sneered at everyone, and said unhurriedly: "Where is this?" Panic what! Now let them be proud, but they are only relying on firearms, and in a while, I will see what they will rely on!? ”
In the middle of the Ming army, there were no less than four or five officers who asked Li Yongzhong to fight, and they were all beaming, as if they were the ones who defeated the Miao people in front. One is more positive than the other, and if Li Yongzhong does not agree with them to go to reinforcements, it means that he will prevent them from obtaining military merits and preventing them from progressing.
Whether it was fear, anger, panic, joy, excitement, jealousy, all human emotions were interrupted by the sudden rain - the Ming army was stunned, the Miao people were ecstatic, and the water stopped together, looking up at the cloudy sky in a daze, the iron-gray clouds pressed down and began to thin, and then the gradually dense rain soaked the robes, and the feet began to be heavy, and the sand with the smell of blood mixed with water turned into sticky mud, firmly sticking to the soles of shoes.
In less than half an hour of incense, the rain curtain that covered almost the entire world took shape.
The Miao people erupted into a burst of earth-shattering cheers, and although the originally high-morale Ming army was still fighting hard, many people's faces showed a look of panic, and the movements on their hands began to be out of shape.
Zheng Guocai dodged a stabbing bamboo dart sideways, raised his hand under his armpit, and used force on his waist, almost lifting the opponent's Miao people up, and he shouted angrily: "Let go!" The Miao man involuntarily let go, and when he didn't see how Zheng Guocai was doing, as soon as the waist knife was sent forward, he stabbed straight into the opponent's lower abdomen!
Pushing the corpse away from the waist knife, Zheng Guocai easily set up a Miao long knife that was ready to sneak attack, and when he looked up, he realized that it was his own general banner. He didn't have time to say thank you, so he only wiped his face and scolded: "Thief God! Now for the trouble! "Just now, Zhang Yiyi was stabbed twice on the back, and at this moment, the wound was washed white by the rain, and it hurt when he moved.
"How's the brothers?" Zheng Guocai finally had time to catch his breath, and he asked Zhang Zheng: "Are you still successful?" ”
"The barbarian is fierce!" Zhang Yi scolded and reluctantly stood up straight, "I'm okay, the brothers can support it, but there are too many barbarians!" He looked back at the Ming army, which was still standing still in the rain, and pursed his lips, anxious in his heart - why haven't the reinforcements come up yet!
"Zhong Guan'er! Let's just watch right here!? A hot-tempered hundred households asked Li Yongzhong in a daze, he pointed to the inextricable battlefield in front of him, and said angrily: "That's a brother of one of our battalion leaders!" Now we're drenched in the rain and watching them die!? ”
"Shut up!" Li Yongzhong unceremoniously threw a horsewhip on the ground beside him, and immediately the muddy water splashed him! "That's all that big! Haven't you seen military science!? The young man gritted his back molars and said, "Sending people up now is just adding fuel!" Let's wait a little longer, I don't believe it, they can't hold down this idea of!? His hand holding the whip was already white, and he suppressed his anger and said word by word: "The whole Chinese army is in a group, and if you give an order in a while, the whole army will be pressed!" ”
It is self-evident who Li Yongzhong said about them -- when the rain became heavier and heavier, the guards only had time to release the second round of guns, but this time the effect was much worse than the last time, and more than half of the guns did not fire. The Miao people on the opposite side still suffered casualties, but they were no longer as afraid as before, and even pounced on them fearlessly!
Without hesitation, the Musketeers discarded the valuable Musket, and then took the spears behind them as fast as they could—each of them had spears on their backs when they set out—and no one looked at the Muskets thrown in the muddy water, and they formed a formation and rushed towards the Miao without fear under the leadership of the Captain!
The Li family's guards, according to Li Yongzhong's regulations, only the pikemen with the best spear skills and assassination skills are qualified to turn into musketeers, receive an extra penny of silver every month, and the food is better than that of the pikemen. Therefore, when the musketeers throw away the muskets, it can be said that they have finally returned to their duties - they are better pikemen than ordinary spearmen.
Unlike the previous assault of the whole team, now the guards have all been scattered, and three or five people form a small gun formation to fight on their own. In the battle, one person serves as the main attacker, and the other or two people defend the flanks, echoing each other's defense, even against five or six Miao people, they are not left behind. The gun in their hands is as thick as a chicken egg, it is fine ash wood, and the holster and the gun head are two feet long.
Seven or eight Hmong surrounded five or six guards, and in the previous careless attack, the Hmong paid the terrible price of one seriously wounded and two dead, and the guards were almost unscathed—one of the dead was hanging on the shoulder of one of the guards when he swung his weapon before he died, and his armor helped him bear the damage, and his muscles ached, but they were still intact.
Compared to the first attack, the Miao people were obviously much more cautious this time, the two people who used the bamboo darts were the first to stab at a guard who stood a little prominently, while the others were eyeing each other, and as long as there was the slightest flaw, they would not hesitate to pounce on them and completely tear these hateful Han people apart!
The guard deftly pushed away the bamboo dart closest to him, and didn't look at the second bamboo dart that attacked him on the side, the Miao man didn't have time to ecstasy, and suddenly stretched out a spear next to him, lightly pushed away the bamboo dart, and then stabbed into the abdomen of the Miao man along the unprotected middle road, the guard who successfully helped his companion get out of danger didn't have time to pull back the spear, and the Miao man on the side had already swung a knife at him!
Something that made the attacker feel miserable happened again, the hook knife did not hit any target, and two spears had already held the knife, one of which was owned by the guard who had just been covered. The Hmong roared wildly, finally losing their patience, and those who were still able to stand up frantically pounced on this strange and desperate array of guns, and the result was not surprising - the guards paid the price of two minor wounds and one death, turning these enemies who dared to provoke them into cold corpses.
In the pouring rain, there is a tooth-aching sound when weapons collide, and a human screams or groans when they are injured. Groan, the cold metal creates all sorts of wounds on the human body—knife wounds with rolled muscles, gunshot wounds the size of teacups, bruises from fists and kicks, and even bites.
The faces of the leaders watching the battle were gloomy. The same is true for the second brother. He clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes stared coldly at the guards who were getting braver and braver - they were really easy to identify, compared to the somewhat scattered Ming army, the guards were in formation, advancing and retreating together, and there were hardly any stragglers, and the Miao people who dared to approach them were gone, no, there were no more now.
"They don't have firearms, how can they still be so strong!" An uncontrollable leader spoke, with a slight fear in his tone that he hadn't even noticed, "Where the hell is this person from!" ”
"What now!" Chaha couldn't sit still, originally said that he would let the Han people under the second brother go first, but they coveted the capture after the battle, and they snatched the striker back, and now the desperate people on the battlefield are all his real clansmen! Although most of them are slaves, they are also young and strong! After this battle, even if you can win, it will be a miserable victory!
"Otherwise, let's withdraw......" The head of a small village timidly suggested, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he shrank back uneasily, but still mustered up the courage to say, "We are no better than the Han people!" It's a bigger village, and how many people can there be! There are only more than 600 dings of our families together, and how many people are dead now! We can't afford to die! ”
As soon as he said this, people's hearts suddenly floated! The second brother hated it in his heart, but his face was still calm, but his face was ugly, and when he saw that several leaders were a little moved, he had to speak: "Everyone! Now that we're retired, the dog officers and soldiers won't be soft! Withdrawing troops now will surely be a rout! He can be regarded as having experienced a lot of battle formations, not a layman, seeing that the faces of several big-headed people are not good, he said in an aggravated voice: "We are tired, and the dog officers and soldiers are even more tired!" How many can that guy kill? They are few after all! He added another fire: "If we withdraw now, it will be a failure!" Falling short! ”
While hesitating, a small soldier in charge of the herald rushed towards them with a rolling belt, and before he could reach him, he had already shouted loudly: "The Ming army is coming up again!" ”
The second brother was shocked in his heart, but he laughed on his face! shouted a good word viciously, and the opponent said: "This Ming army can't stand it!" After all, this is still our winning side! Pass my order, brothers, don't nest, rush up, and kill the dog officers and soldiers to the ground! ”
And a little farther away, the Chinese army of the Ming army finally woke up from the silence, Li Yongzhong did not leave any back hand, an order, the soldiers moved forward, he carried a big gun, under the protection of Liu Xiaoqi, Chen Mingjiang and other guards, without hesitation, and even rushed towards the killing field with joy!
