Instead of retreating, some of the displaced people threw down their weapons, raised their hands and knelt in front of their positions.

Anyway, it's a dead end, and they prefer to believe in the slogan of Xincun and surrender Xincun.

Just now, in the melee of the team, they could not surrender, and now seeing the retreat of the army, they seized the opportunity, threw away their weapons, and surrendered on their knees.

The trench mourner was quickly put up with a few wooden planks, and Zhuge Shanzhen tied these people with their hands behind their backs and escorted them back to the top of the post.

There were about 200 displaced people who surrendered before the battle.

Yu Xiang ordered people to select ten homeless people who were loyal and willing to take refuge in the new village, and gave them white-flour steamed buns. These people were obviously hungry, picked up steamed buns, and gobbled them up.

They are all exiles who have come in order to eat a bite to eat and join the battle.

What's more, their wives and children are in Zhang Xianzhong's camp, and once they surrender, their wives and children will be killed, and if they don't get it right, they will be brutally eaten. This is also the reason why many would rather die than surrender.

Fortunately, among these ten people, seven of their wives and children have died of war, famine or disease, and these seven people are named Li Erguo, Guo Xiaomin, Zhang Dongfa, Zhao Zengliang, Zhao Dafa, Zhao Guyu, and Zhu Sigou. They don't have any worries at all.

They saw that Mr. Yu Qian was not like the legendary man-eating demon and murderer, but an amiable and courteous young man, and compared Mr. Yu Qian with Zhang Xianzhong, but felt that Zhang Xianzhong was even more cruel.

On the position of Huangtougang, everyone's spiritual temperament, from the inside to the outside, reveals a healthy and upward atmosphere, this kind of spiritual outlook, infects and attracts them, Li Erguo and other seven people decided to take refuge in the new village.

Li Erguo, a short, thin and dark middle-aged man, about thirty years old, worked as a carpenter, and he suggested: "Zhang Xianzhong, there are many homeless people like him, just to eat and eat, if the new village can give them a chance, they will definitely take refuge in the new village, can you make a surrender channel in front of the position, let them surrender before the battle?" ”

Qi Dayong felt that it was not feasible to set up a passage, and if there was a rush formation, it would lead to chaos in our position, and the enemy would take the opportunity to rush into the position, and the consequences would be unimaginable, so he could only deal with it flexibly according to the situation on the battlefield.

Yu Xiang felt that Qi Dayong was reasonable.

Li Erguo continued: "If they are allowed to disarm and surrender on the spot, they will be killed by Zhang Xianzhong's military discipline team, lay down their weapons, and kill themselves in martial arts. ”

Yu Xiang and Qi Dayong felt justified, so they revised the slogan of persuasion and changed it to: "Take refuge in the new village, give money and food." ”

Qi Dayong formed a persuasion team of seven of them, with Li Erguo as the captain, to persuade them to surrender in front of the battle, at this time, someone brought a few thin iron sheets to shout the horn, at this time Yu Xiang ordered the blacksmith to make it according to the shape of the horn in later generations, and let them try it, and the effect was good. It is many times stronger than empty words.

The trench in front of the second line of defense had been filled with corpses, and the soldiers quickly retreated from behind the second line of defense to behind the third line. The soldiers each handed out two steamed buns and water, and everyone took the opportunity to eat steamed buns, drink water, and replenish their strength.

A lot of water is the same as everyone, seize this rare gap, quickly eat steamed buns, drink water, he went to the battlefield for the first time, however, at present, he has adapted to it, although the position exudes the smell of gunpowder smoke and disgusting blood, but he has adapted, which does not affect his appetite. At this time, Xu Lianhua's flower-like smile seemed to appear in front of him, and a sweet voice was calling him, and a sincere smile appeared on his face. In order to protect his beloved, even if he is in danger, he is no longer afraid.

Yu Xiang was discussing the next battle situation with Qi Dayong, and at this time, Jia Binjiu came to the front of the battle with a person and said to Yu Xiang: "Master Qian, who do you think is coming?" ”

Yu Xiang saw that person, this person was Wang Xiaoliu, Liu Guoneng's subordinate who let go a few days ago. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said, "Wang Xiaoliu, how is your king?" ”

Wang Xiaoliu hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and said: "My king is all right, I heard that the new village is in trouble, he is leading the team to the loess gang, helping President Qian to repel Zhang Xianzhong, it is estimated that he can arrive this evening, and the king asked me to come first to deliver the letter." ”

Yu Xiang happily helped him up with both hands, and said excitedly: "Great, with the help of Brother Guoneng, this battle will be won!" The enemy is about to attack again, and you go first and then rest. ”

Wang Xiaoliu shook his head and said, "I still have to go back immediately and report the situation before the battle to the king, so that the king can prepare, and I will leave!" ”

Yu Xiang hurriedly called Liu Xiangzhong and asked him to protect Wang Xiaoliu.

Liu Xiangzhong asked unabashedly: "Mr. Qian, do you trust Liu Guoneng so much?" Aren't you afraid that he will take advantage of the exhaustion of our army to fight Zhang Xianzhong and take our army by surprise? ”

Yu Xiang replied simply and simply: "I believe in him because he is Liu Guoneng." The words are full of confidence in Liu Guoneng.

Liu Xiangzhong didn't say anything more, followed Wang Xiaoliu, and hurriedly escaped into the mountains and forests to find Tatian.

With Wang Xiaoliu's letter, Yu Xiang had the bottom in his heart, and gave the order to go down, so that the troops could hold on until dark no matter what, and Zhang Xianzhong must be blocked from the loess gang.

When the sergeants got the news, they burst into cheers, before they only knew how to hold their positions and how long, and they didn't know in their hearts, but now they were told that if they held until dark, they would win, how could everyone not be happy, at least there was hope.

On the position of Xincun, everyone is more confident and sees the dawn of victory.

Yu Xiang ordered someone to transfer Zhang Erhu's reserve team from the Thirteen Mile Bridge to the front line, and all the forces that could be mobilized were transferred to Huangtougang, and they held out until dark, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Qi Dayong summed up the lesson of the casualties of the auxiliary soldiers caused by the enemy's breach of the second line of defense, and singled out some people in the team who practiced martial arts, and replaced them with their own weapons.

Li Erguo, Guo Xiaomin, Zhang Dongfa, Zhao Zengliang, Zhao Dafa, Zhao Guyu, and Zhu Sigou stood on a high place, holding a simple iron horn, ready to shout.

After the third line of defense, the Forces nouvelles were heavily defended.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong also got a report from Tanmalai, and the people who broke into the tower were rushing towards the loess gang. Zhang Xianzhong was extremely vigilant, they had always been discordant, and the intention of Chuang Tatian's coming was not clear, whether they were here to help or to grab food, it was unknown.

It's just that Zhang Xianzhong never thought that Chuang Tatian was here to help Xincun.

To grasp the initiative, only by capturing the loess gang as soon as possible can we cope with all changes with the same change, and the army is short of food; if we cannot take the loess gang before dark, the army will not be able to get supplies, and then it will be defeated without a fight.

This time, Zhang Xianzhong staked his own net worth, and more than 5,000 of his personal elite soldiers, except for a few hundred people to guard the barracks tent, the rest were on the battlefield, Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi personally went to the front line to supervise the battle, Zhang Xianzhong made up his mind that this battle must be won.

As the horn of attack sounded, Zhang Xianzhong's army rushed densely towards the third trench of Loess Gang.

The sergeants behind the earthen wall were all solemn, and now, instead of being afraid, on the contrary, there was a faint sense of pride on their faces. Defend and defend the new village, their relatives, go into battle to kill the enemy, although they are still honored.

If they die in battle, their relatives will also receive generous pensions, so they do not have any worries, only to hold their positions and defend the new village from being invaded, is their responsibility and mission.

The enemies who poured up, the ones who took the lead, this time were not just homeless, but death squads, all of them strong and strong, holding the corpses of the dead and rushing forward.

Their intentions are obvious, on the one hand, they use the corpses as shields to resist the fire in the new village. Guns are fired, and on the other hand, corpses are used to fill the trenches, in an attempt to kill multiple birds with one stone.

However, holding the corpse of one hundred and ten catties, their movements must be slow, and the speed of progress is extremely slow.

Qi Dayong ordered fire. The spearmen, standing up, condescendingly, shot the enemy in the head.

The enemy entered the best shooting range of sixty paces, Qi Dayong pointed forward with his long knife, and shouted:

"Shoot!"

More than a hundred shots of fire. The guns rang out in unison, spewing fire and smoke.

Dozens of people fell in the ranks of the enemy, and the number of people hit was greatly reduced compared to the previous ones, and the corpse shield worked.

The fallen corpses were quickly picked up from the ground and used as shields.

New Village Fire. The gun was fired at a distance of 150 paces, and the reason why it was put in 60 steps was to achieve the maximum shooting effect.

Qi Dayong decided to adjust his strategy, and the enemy was bound to move slowly with a corpse of dozens of catties. The gunner's shot provided the opportunity.

Qi Dayong changed the password.

"Aim!"

"Shoot!"

"Aim!"

"Shoot!"

"Aim!"

"Shoot!"

......

Although the people who walked in front of them and held the corpses were spared, they were shot and fell to the ground one after another to those who showed their heads in the enemy group and whose bodies were weak and could not hold the corpses.

And those who hold the corpse must move slowly, and their weapons are either pinned to their waists or taken by others, which is equivalent to their bare hands.

Zhuge Shanzhen cleared his life and led the special battalion to carry out a counter-charge.

Qi Dayong had already had this intention, and he quickly mobilized people with strong martial arts and skills in the army to form a death squad to counterattack with the help of favorable terrain.

The front of the trench was quickly paved with wooden planks, and Zhuge Shanzhen led a death squad to rush out from behind the earthen wall like a wolf, which greatly surprised the enemy army.

Liu Xiangyong, Liu Xiangxin, Liu Xiangyi and other strong martial arts people, with the help of Xincun's sharp steel knives, chopping melons and vegetables, will be in front of the battle Those holding corpses, the unarmed death squads in front of the battle instantly killed all over the field, and the corpses were all over the field.

At this time, the horn of Li Erguo and the other seven people sounded, and everyone shouted together:

"Take refuge in the new village, have money and food!"

"Take refuge in the new village, have money and food!"

"Take refuge in the new village, have money and food!"

Li Erguo's outfit is a homeless outfit, and many of the homeless people in Zhang Zizhong's team know each other. Those homeless people who were unwilling to be Zhang Xianzhong's cannon fodder began to spontaneously organize and attack Zhang Xianzhong's elite soldiers, and there was a scuffle in front of the position.

However, where are these homeless people who are the opponents of Zhang Xianzhong's elite soldiers, they have been killed one after another.

There are more and more soldiers pouring up from the bottom of the back hill, and no matter how good the Xincun death squad is, it can't deal with so many enemies.

Qi Dayong ordered the second team to reload the ammunition with fire. The spearmen, took up their weapons, joined the battle, and with a wild roar, more than 200 people rushed into the enemy formation, and these more than 200 people quickly formed several mandarin duck formations, like several moving chariots, into the enemy formation.

As the mandarin ducks marched forward, like a horse-drawn cart entering a wheat field, the enemies in front of them fell to the ground like fragile wheat.

Zhuge Shan Zhen suddenly felt the pressure greatly reduced, and swung the big knife in his hand even more vigorously, and the enemies in front of him fell to the ground one after another.

Seeing that Xincun sent reinforcements, it strengthened the determination of some of the displaced people to join Xincun, and they all helped Xincun soldiers to resist Zhang Xianzhong's elite soldiers, until the enemy who had previously invaded was forced back to the second line of defense, and they used the second line of defense as their barrier and prepared to reorganize the attack.

Qi Dayong accepted it when he saw it, and sounded the horn of collecting troops.

After the displaced people who took refuge in the new village laid down their weapons, and under the guidance of Zhuge Shanzhen, quickly entered the third line of defense of the new village, the rest of the people in the new village also withdrew to the earthen wall, removed the wooden planks from the trench, and waited behind the earthen wall.

In this counter-charge, more than 30 people were killed and wounded in Xincun, while Zhang Xianzhong's team, including the displaced people, lost more than 1,500 people, and more than 300 elite soldiers were killed and wounded.

In addition, more than 400 displaced people defected and became new villages. However, there is not much ammunition left in Xincun, and the situation is dire.

It was already close to noon, and the smell of gunpowder wafted on the battlefield, mixed with a bloody smell of blood, an indescribable taste in the hot sun.

The second round of charges was repulsed, Zhang Xianzhong in the big tent was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and the fireman officer came in at this time and asked how to prepare the war meal?

Zhang Xianzhong's eyes shone with a terrible and cruel light, and he gestured with his hand. The fireman nodded yes and withdrew.

The fire husband officer understood what Zhang Xianzhong meant, this was going to take those hundreds of women. The fireman killed 400 women in one go, leaving only a few dozen good-looking young women, whom he was going to sacrifice to the leading leaders under Zhang Xianzhong. for their lewdness. Happy.

The poor hundreds of women died under Zhang Xianzhong's butcher's knife before they could be saved.
