Chapter 823: Peaceful World (17)
At this time, the grand hegemony in Li Zicheng's heart has completely disappeared. He secretly made up his mind that as long as he could escape this disaster alive this time, then he would immediately send his soldiers and horses to go incognito! This Beijing camp can't be defeated at all! He just wanted to get out alive now.
How sensitive is Li Zicheng's battlefield acumen? He immediately saw that the only way out at this time was to rush out directly through the rain of bullets and bullets of the officers and soldiers under the cover of night. And it must be fast, once the officers and soldiers on the hill rush down, then no one will want to escape.
Gao Yang, who looked relaxed, walked out of the bamboo forest rustling in the evening breeze. A few steps forward, he stood on top of a large rock and quietly observed the entire battlefield.
When I felt that hundreds of rogues got on their horses and galloped forward along the official road. He just hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile. I'm not worried about the outlaws escaping.
Since it is an ambush circle, will there be any loopholes left for the prey? Not to mention that these rogues have exposed all their flanks to the guns of the New Army, and there are hundreds of New Army defense lines waiting for them in front!
Soon, a large number of flares were fired into the air. The dim night was instantly illuminated. The rogues were all exposed.
"Free Fire!" As the shouts of the officers rang out, more than a thousand recruits stopped. Raise the gun, aim, pull the trigger. These actions, which have been done countless times in daily training, have become the enemy's talisman after entering the battlefield at this moment!
The sound of fried beans sounded one after another, and the rogues who fled fell in an instant. The mournful sound of people shouting and neighing was endless.
Li Zicheng leaned down and hugged the neck of the war horse. Keep yourself as close to the horse's back as possible. In that salvo just now, several buckshot bullets grazed his side. The terrifying 'whoosh' sound scared him into a cold sweat!
Before Li Zicheng could congratulate himself on escaping, another round of musket shooting began.
By the time Li Zicheng rushed out of the range of the gun's musket on the hill, the rogues who followed him were less than 100 horsemen.
At this time, except for Li Guo behind him. Li Laiheng, Niu Jinxing, Tian Jianxiu and others are all gone. You don't have to think about it to know that you either died under the muskets of the officers and soldiers, or you were trapped in the encirclement.
Before Li Zicheng could breathe a sigh of relief, the bright firecrackers he had seen before suddenly rose into the air in front of the official road. Reflect them completely!
"It's over." Looking at the neat queues on both sides of the official road not far ahead, he raised his musket and pointed at the officers and soldiers who were waiting for himself and others. Li Zicheng was cold. Utter despair.
"King Chuang!" Li Zicheng, who was also desperate, shouted behind Li Zicheng.
At this time, all the people who could follow Li Zicheng were the strongest group of rogues. Don't look at the fact that there are less than a hundred of them. However, if this was replaced by a normal one, the Ming army troops using cold weapons would be able to stop these desperate trapped beasts by hundreds of people!
It's a pity that all the people here at this moment are the new Ming army using advanced muskets!
No matter how high the martial arts are, no matter how brave the morale is. None of them worked in front of the muskets. Li Zicheng, who had already seen the powerful power of the musket, naturally understood this.
"Don't think about revenge in the future!" Li Zicheng pulled Li Guo to his side, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated. took a deep breath, patted Li Guo on the shoulder and said, "Live well and leave a blood for the old Li family!" ”
It's not that Li Zicheng doesn't want to run away by himself. It's just that the only way out at this moment is to escape into the Huama Lake on the side and sneak out. His water nature simply can't do that. Although Li Guo is a northerner. But the water-based is not bad.
The most important thing is that he Li Zicheng is an anti-king! His goal is so big that whether he escapes or not, the result is the same. It is impossible for the court to let him go.
“...... Uncle! Li Guo's tears are all left, this is life and death!
Li Zicheng took out a tarpaulin from his arms and stuffed it into Li Guo's arms. Taking a deep breath, I pushed him away. Yuan opened his eyes and shouted, "Let's go!" Don't let Lao Tzu die in vain! After speaking, he waved the saber in his hand and screamed. With a shout, he rode his horse and rushed towards the blocking positions of the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp in front.
Li Guo, who fell off the horse, wiped the corners of his eyes. took a deep look at Li Zicheng's distant back. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he turned around and rushed to Huama Lake not far from the official road.
"Ready!" As the officers gave the command, hundreds of new army sergeants quickly raised their muskets in their hands and began to lock onto their targets.
Gaoyang's new army is well supplied, but there is no strange rule that it is not allowed to shoot horses. Now the night is dark. Even with flares, you can't see it clearly. And all of them were so good at riding that they were all stuck to their horses. It's much more difficult to hit people than horses.
"Fire!" When Li Zicheng and the others rushed within 200 meters, the officer holding the ranging ruler immediately gave the order to open fire.
The sergeants in the front row, who had already been prepared, pulled the trigger in their hands one after another. A pungent smoke rose from the roar of the explosion. Deadly lead bullets had already burst out of the thick barrel of the rifling that had been pulled out by the machine. Straight to the rogues in the distance.
Platoon shooting. This was the most effective way for musketeers to shoot before the advent of heavy machine guns. Because this type of firing allows the maximum possible density of fire. In an era when accuracy could not be guaranteed, the density of firepower delivery became the key guarantee for victory in war.
After three rounds. The Forces nouvelles officer waved to stop the next round of firing. Because there are no targets in front of them that they can shoot at.
Shoot the man before the horse. Nearly a hundred cavalry gathered together, how huge is the goal? In the face of a dense rain of bullets, there is no place to hide.
The young Forces nouvelles officer covered his nose and walked out of the smoke-filled blocking position. With a wave of his hand, a group of more than a dozen new army sergeants left their positions and followed him forward to clean up the battlefield. The rest of the sergeants stood on standby.
The recruits carried long muskets on their backs. Take out the flashlight on your waist, push away the spring and hold it in your hand. The other hand drew the sharp bayonet that had been given to them.
Come to the pile of corpses of the rogue a hundred meters away. Ignoring the groans and screams of the seriously injured and undead, they raised their hands for help. The young officer, who was still a little immature, pulled out a deck of playing cards from his bosom.
This special deck of playing cards depicts the important generals of Li Zicheng's department. Including Li Zicheng, Li Guo, Song Xiance, Niu Jinxing, Li Yan and others.
This is the facial information collected by Gao Yang using a miniature reconnaissance robot to scan it at close range, which is much stronger than the wanted map drawn by the artists by hand.
Almost all of the rogues in front of them were wearing well-made light armor, and when they looked up at the placket, they could see that they were all wearing silk linings. Either there are big people here, or these are the backbone of the rogues.
The young officer wagged the playing cards in his hand in front of his nose with some impatience, trying to dispel the disgusting smell of blood. At the same time, his mood was extremely excited. The last thief on the poker card also received a bounty of 600 military merits!
You must know that now you can exchange military merits for fertile land outside the customs, and you only need ten points of military merit per acre of land! And an ordinary soldier who has served normally for one year has not made military merits and has not made mistakes. He was only twelve. This officer's military rank at this time is captain, and his military exploits in a year are definitely not more than 100!
If this can catch Li Yi......
Thinking of this, the young officer took out the king who had already looked at it I don't know how many times and had long been imprinted in his mind. trembling lips, he whispered, "The field in our hometown costs twenty-five points of military merit per mu, and it all depends on you." ”
The playing card with Li Zicheng's portrait printed on the front has a line of small print directly below Li Zicheng's portrait. It is clearly written, "Capture and kill Li Rebel, 50,000 military merits!" ”
"It's Li !!" When the young officer stroked the playing cards as if he were stroking the fertile fields of his hometown. The new soldiers, who had carried the wounded rogues and horses on their way one by one with bayonets, suddenly burst into cheers all day long. The young officer's hand shook, and all the cards spilled on the ground.
A few arrows rushed over, the flashlight in their hands reflected on the distorted, blood-stained face. That's right! It's the face you can ever dream of!
The sergeants who had rested on guard in the blocking positions, pulled out their cigarettes and began to relax, did not care about anything else. Cheering loudly, he rushed over.
This blockade is a team action, and these 50,000 military exploits are all shared by everyone! That's a military feat that can be exchanged for good fields! The local complex of the Chinese nation, except for the Chinese people, no one will understand!
......
"Li Zicheng is dead?" Gao Yang raised his eyebrows and asked in some surprise.
Li Zicheng is known as an immortal Xiaoqiang. Over the years, I don't know how many times I have been forced into a desperate situation with no way to escape by the official army, and I can turn the danger into a disaster. No matter how big or small, he has been defeated so many times and has never encountered danger, which is simply a protective aura of the protagonist.
Unexpectedly, he actually died here this time. It seems that his aura is still not as good as Gao Yang.
"Words from the Chinese teacher." The middle-aged officer in the army, who was in charge of the autopsy, bowed and saluted, and said in absolute certainty: "The subordinate and his colleagues have verified it many times, and there is absolutely no doubt that Li Wei is really there!" ”
"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded, raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and didn't say anything more.
Another famous figure in the history books has withdrawn. His merits and demerits will naturally be commented on by future generations.
There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. Li Zicheng's life is right or wrong, and in the eyes of different people, he naturally has different evaluations. Some people may say that he was forced to be helpless, some people may say that he is the master of the people, and some people may say that he is innocent of death. But as the party concerned, Li Zicheng, he will never know.
Everyone has their own story. Li Zicheng's story is over.
Now that the person is dead, Gao Yang is not in the mood to continue to think about his affairs. Gao Yang still has a lot of important things to deal with, and his story is still long. (To be continued!)
