Chapter 643: One More Vote
Use the Black Dragon Guard?
Xi Changzhen's silkworm eyebrows were raised like thick ink. A pair of narrow Danfeng eyes narrowed into a line, and the eyes flashed with cold light. This expression fell in Chen Zhengshi's eyes, and he knew that Xi Changzhen was beginning to think about it. The soldiers who fell on Zhennan Pass were like a thorn in their hearts, and they couldn't pull it out, which made people very uncomfortable.
Only by using the strength of the Zhennan Army can we have a chance to win.
In the hall, there was silence.
Xi Changzhen didn't speak, and Chen Zhengshi didn't speak.
After a full two minutes, Xi Changzhen opened his eyes, and he already had a plan.
Xi Changzhen said: "Okay, I agree with the use of the Black Dragon Guard." But since the Black Dragon Guard was used, if you can't take down the Qing army in the pass this time, you don't have to come back to see me, so apologize for your crimes. ”
After a pause, Xi Changzhen continued: "If you want to take down the Qing army that landed in Zhennan Pass, you must catch them all. You remember,......, the general plan is like this, and the rest is up to you to judge on the fly. In addition to being responsible for dealing with the Qing army in the Guannai, don't forget to send scouts to spy on Li Zhen's movements. If you ignore Li Zhen, who is eyeing the enemy, it may be a mortal threat. ”
"I understand!"
After Chen Zhengshi received the order, he immediately went to prepare.
……
In the Qing army barracks, Li Zhen was also worried about the situation of the soldiers who landed in the checkpoint with a hot air balloon.
It's just that there are no communication tools such as telephones, so there is no way to detect the situation. The continuous waiting also made Li Zhen lose patience. Li Zhen called Smith and ordered: "Smith, immediately send troops back to Guangzhou and send ten cannons over." This time I didn't carry a cannon, which was a mistake. ”
"Yes!"
Smith agreed to come down and immediately carry out the order.
Li Zhen sat alone in the tent, thinking about the problems he encountered.
When the army left, Li Zhen did not bring the cannon. After all, there are no cars, no trains, etc., which is not conducive to transportation. Moreover, the weight of the cannon is very heavy, the cannon that was once placed in the Humen Fort in Guangzhou, the heaviest is more than 8,000 catties, if such a cannon is carried, it will definitely cost countless manpower and material resources.
Even if Li Zhen bought foreign cannons through Gu Lina's channel, it was inconvenient to transport them.
Thinking of this, Li Zhen had a thought in his heart about strengthening the research of artillery.
However, Dai Yuanhua is now concentrating on the study of machine guns, and he also wants to make a machine gun that can fire bullets continuously according to Dai Zi's idea, so the research on the improvement of the cannon has to be slowed down slightly. But at least it has to be on the agenda. Li Zhen had a plan, so he wrote out his thoughts in detail and organized them into a manuscript.
……
Ten miles southwest of Zhennan Pass, all the soldiers who landed in Zhennan Pass gathered. Company Commander Wu Youfu looked at the ten people under his command and said in a deep voice: "Start with the platoon commander, tell what you encountered, and let's summarize it." ”
Their group is a hundred people, Wu Youfu is the company commander, the remaining ten leaders are the platoon commanders in the army, and the rest of the soldiers are the elite selected from the army. Although this group of soldiers is inferior to the Sharp Knife Battalion, the overall quality is also very high, which is not comparable to ordinary soldiers.
The platoon commander spoke: "Company commander, there is nothing to do on my side, only a team of thirty people was wiped out. ”
The second platoon commander continued: "I wiped out a team of twenty-five. ”
Then, the third, fourth, and fifth platoon commanders spoke one after another, all of them exterminated the soldiers who came from the direction of Zhennan Pass. When it was the turn of the sixth platoon commander, his expression was not very excited, and he said tightly: "Company commander, I haven't encountered enemy soldiers coming from the direction of Zhennanguan in the past few days. Because in the past few days, I have taken the soldiers to change their uniforms, visited some local people, asked about the road from Zhennan Pass to the outside, and also asked people to explore. ”
"Oh, what's the situation?"
Wu Youfu was interested, and when he opened his mouth to ask, almost everyone was facing the battle, and the sixth platoon commander's unusual approach made Wu Youfu's eyes light up.
The sixth platoon commander spoke: "I took the soldiers to ask the people for verification, and I have heard that a small road can lead to the outside of the pass, and from outside the south of the town, you can also enter the pass. This trail is in the middle of the mountains, in disrepair, few people pass by, and it is very difficult to walk. I visited the local people and learned about this old road. ”
As he spoke, the six-platoon leader took out a roll of silk from his bosom. On this roll of silk, the location of the nearby road is marked with a black brush, and the map of entering the Zhennan Pass from outside the Zhennan Pass is also clearly marked.
Wu Youfu stroked his palm and said: "Well done, with this map, the marshal can lead troops to raid Zhennan Pass." He happily held the map in his arms and said, "Get ready, let's return to the gate and pass the news to the marshal." ”
"Report!" At this time, a soldier quickly ran in. There was excitement in the soldier's eyes, and he reported loudly: "Company commander, I found that a group of two hundred Zhennanguan soldiers appeared and were rushing in our direction. ”
Wu Youfu's eyes flashed with longing, he looked at the rest of the platoon commanders and asked, "What do you think?" ”
The seventh platoon commander opened his mouth and said: "Company commander, let's do another vote, pack up all the two hundred enemy soldiers we encountered, and then leave Zhennanguan by trail." The seven platoon commanders were eager to try, and the rest of the platoon commanders also echoed their words and agreed to send troops. The successive victories have already made these platoon commanders proud. Moreover, they have a kind of cognition in their bones, thinking that the soldiers of Zhennanguan are not powerful, so they think that they can easily exterminate this army.
Wu Youfu also said: "Okay, let's do it!" ”
Everyone, unanimous in opinion.
Wu Youfu said with his fists in his hands: "I remember that there was a hillside on the way we came, let's quickly retreat, rush to the position of the hillside to hide, and ambush it. One hundred against two hundred, not very difficult. ”
At the sound of an order, all the soldiers in Zhennanguan left.
……
Two hundred soldiers from Zhennanguan hurried away, and these soldiers were ordered to encircle and suppress the Qing army, but they were uneasy in their hearts, because they had sent so many soldiers before, but all of them were killed.
The leader is a thousand presidents, named Yu Xianhua, who looks quite brave.
Mr. Yu Qian was not as careless as Mr. Qiu, and he was very cautious all the way. The soldiers under his command didn't know what was going on, but Yu Qian always got Chen Zhenghua's orders and knew the purpose of this operation. Mr. Yu Qian walked among the soldiers, moving forward slowly, and when the team was only more than 100 meters away from the hillside, Mr. Yu Qian's heart began to beat thumping.
It's not the first time he's reacted like this.
After setting out from Zhennan Pass, every time he encountered a hillside, a mountain forest or something like that, he would always be worried in his heart, for fear that a team of enemy soldiers would suddenly be killed. Therefore, Yu Qian always wished that the road was smooth and straight, so that he would not be ambushed. It's a pity that now I have encountered it again, which makes Yu Qianzong feel uneasy.
He led his soldiers into the official road at the bottom of the hillside and looked around.
The blue sky is as blue as a wash. But a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the blue sky, which became clearer and clearer. In the blink of an eye, Mr. Yu Qian had already seen clearly, this was a wooden handle type thing. Yu Qian didn't understand what it was, but the wooden handle-like thing exploded instantly after it landed, making Yu Qian always understand.
This thing was clearly the weapon used to bomb the camp that night!
"Withdraw! There is an ambush! ”
Yu Qian always yelled, turned around and ran away.
