The night is vast, a bright moon is reflected in the air, and the moonlight has become the only light at night.

For most people, it's an ordinary, ordinary night.

For others, however, it was a torturous night.

About ten miles away from Anding, on both sides of a narrow road, more than 50 Qing soldiers were lying on the ground, with some grass and trees stuck in their bodies, each of them motionless, their eyes either staring ahead or looking at the ground below them.

After this night, it is not known how many people will die or how many will be injured as a result. But since he has chosen, since he has accepted, even if he is timid, even if he trembles, at this moment, no one has thought of retreating.

Life has become the only motivation for them to lurk here.

If you kill one person, you will have a reward of five taels of silver, and if you kill two, you will have a reward of dozens of times.

This temptation is undoubtedly an irresistible temptation for those of them who cannot survive and can only rely on the army to make a living.

Wang Sirui's strategy was very successful, and when he told all the plans, the more than 50 soldiers instantly boiled.

For them, as long as they can get the money, that's enough. Even if they die in battle, one hundred taels of silver is enough for their families to survive well.

As for whether Wang Sirui will break his promise, they are not too worried about this. Unless this battle is completely wiped out and no one can survive, otherwise, Wang Sirui will definitely send this money down.

The royal family of Nuoda is not short of this money.

For the other side, it is not only the physical but also the mental fatigue that is tired.

Although the Japanese defeated the Qing army, to be honest, the Japanese won the First Sino-Japanese War that year, and the Japanese won by luck. Even if there was constant corruption within the Qing army, even the navy's artillery shell money dared to be greedy.

If those people were less greedy back then, then it would have been the Japanese who were defeated that year. Even the war, an ancient empire with serious internal corruption, still needed luck to win, and it can be seen that the Japanese were not much better than the Qing Dynasty back then.

Now that only five years have passed, although the Japanese have developed, but on another level, the comprehensive strength of the Qing Dynasty is still above Japan.

And the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is also inferior to that of the great powers. Don't look at the fact that this time the Japanese sent nearly 10,000 troops, but in fact, these people are mainly engaged in logistics and transportation.

It can be said that 60 percent of the logistics supply in the entire coalition army was handled by the Japanese, 30 percent by the Russians, and the remaining 10 percent by the British lackeys and by the Indian Asan.

Although the coalition forces seem to be overwhelmed at the moment, and the troops are directly aimed at the capital of the Qing Kingdom, in fact, the consumption along the way is also very large.

Hundreds of thousands of Boxer members carried out a policy of fortifying the allied forces and clearing the wilderness. Wherever the coalition forces went, they would inevitably not find a grain of grain or see a single Qing citizen.

There were Boxers everywhere, and there were broken troops of the Qing army everywhere. Along the way, the ammunition consumption of the coalition forces is actually quite large.

In the early stage, it was good to say that the ammunition carried by the troops was basically enough, but as the vanguard got closer and closer to the capital, the ammunition of the coalition army began to make an urgent sound.

In this way, the Allied Command asked the Japanese to speed up the transportation of supplies.

If it had been in the early stage, the transportation task of the Japanese would have inevitably suffered too much loss. However, due to the carelessness of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces in the early stage, Seymour, the coalition forces were defeated, and finally retreated to Tianjin again, thus giving the Boxers more time to destroy the railway.

Therefore, in June, the coalition forces could still take a train from Tianjin directly to Langfang, and then march on foot to Beijing. And now, all their actions can only be centered on Tianjin.

The Japanese set out from Tianjin at noon yesterday, and when they came out, there were more than 40 oxen and horse-drawn carts and a battalion of escorts.

However, not long after leaving Tianjin, they were attacked by the remnants of the Boxer Rebellion, which directly led to the fact that more than 100 Japanese had to withdraw from the escort ranks, and four oxen and carriages were also lost.

As a result, in the evening, the Japanese traveled more than 40 miles, and finally had to camp and rest. In the second half of the night, the Boxers raided the Japanese camp again.

Although the Japanese had done enough to defend themselves, they were ultimately unable to resist the onslaught of the Boxers for various reasons.

This time, the Japanese suffered even greater losses, losing an escort of almost two hundred people, as well as more than a dozen oxen and wagons.

Originally, the Japanese planned to go back to rest and recuperate before starting again, but this proposal was rejected by the coalition command, and if they went back for reorganization, it would be delayed for two days, and in two days, the ammunition in front had already run out, how could this work?

As a result, the Allied Command had no choice but to inform the troops in Langfang to leave a company of troops there, wait for the Japanese baggage team to come over and join them, and then go to the front line together.

But things were not as simple as imagined, when the signal corps arrived in Langfang, the troops who had been resting in Langfang had already been deployed, and there was a difference of about 20 miles between them and the Japanese army, and it was naturally impossible for the coalition forces to retreat to Langfang to protect them, so they let them go directly to Anding to join the coalition forces.

At this time, there were basically no troops guarding Langfang. It was precisely because the coalition forces did not want to retreat that Wang Sirui was given the opportunity to attack this time.

Similarly, it can be said that the Boxers have helped a lot this time, if it weren't for the Boxers who helped Wang Sirui consume a large number of Japanese escorts in the early stage, Wang Sirui would not have dared to fight the idea of this baggage team no matter what.

Along the way, they encountered two major attacks and one small attack, which made the Japanese have to be vigilant, but after all, there are only a few dozen people left, and the Japanese have limited energy, so it is difficult to maintain a high degree of vigilance all the time.

In order to be able to join the coalition forces in time, the Japanese did not set up camp and rest after dark, but thought about rushing to settle down as soon as possible.

With the passage of time, the figure of the baggage team gradually appeared in Wang Sirui's sight.

Although there are no lights, tonight's moonlight obviously helped Wang Sirui a lot.

With the help of the faint moonlight, I can vaguely see the general situation of this team.

However, after seeing it clearly, Wang Sirui had a trace of doubt. Why is this team so small? As far as Wang Sirui knows, the strength of the coalition forces does not seem to be very tense now.

At this time, the number of coalition troops has already increased from 30,000 to 50,000 at the beginning, and according to common sense, the worst side of the baggage team will send a company of troops to escort it.

A night breeze blew, and the air was filled with the slightest smell of blood, which did not escape Wang Sirui's nose.

Since I came back from time, maybe it's because the air quality is much better in this era. Therefore, Wang Sirui's sense of smell and eyesight have also improved, and this wind is mixed with a faint smell of blood, a dry smell of blood.

In an instant, Wang Sirui understood, he already knew why there were only so many people in this baggage team.

By now, Wang Sirui's certainty of victory has become bigger and bigger, this army has obviously experienced a large-scale battle, and it is still on the road at night, obviously in order to be able to meet with the stable troops as soon as possible.

This place is only less than twenty miles away from Anding, and according to the speed of the baggage team, even if it is a night road, an hour's time is enough.

Considering the garrison on the Anding side, Wang Sirui's side must resolve the battle within half an hour, and then quickly withdraw from the battlefield. Otherwise, you risk being dumpled by the coalition reinforcements who are following you.

Half an hour, that is, an hour, should be about the same. Wang Sirui said secretly in his heart.

100 meters......

Fifty meters......

Thirty meters......

Five-meter ......

The baggage team of the coalition army has already entered the ambush circle, and Wang Sirui's muzzle has already put the people in front of the coalition army inside. As for whether it is an officer or not, this Wang Sirui does not know, and it is impossible to know.

'Smack......'

A crisp gunshot completely broke the silent night sky.

The Japanese soldier who was targeted by Wang Sirui fell to the ground in response, covering his wounds with his hands and wailing in pain.

Because it was dark, Wang Sirui was not 100% sure of hitting the opponent's head, so he chose the position on the opponent's chest.

At a distance of about twenty meters, this bullet directly penetrated the opponent's chest, but the power of the Japanese Golden Hook Rifle is really a little flattering, although the Japanese soldier who was hit by Wang Sirui must be dead, but at least he will not die now.

"Ah......" The soldiers hiding on both sides of the road, I don't know who suddenly roared, raised their broadswords and rushed to the dirt road, and before the Japanese army could react, they directly slashed sideways, and the entire blade instantly sank into the shoulders of the Japanese soldiers.

Perhaps under his influence, the soldiers hiding on both sides of the road also rushed out with weapons in hand. For a time, the Japanese camp suddenly became chaotic.

In just one face, the Japanese lost ten people. Most of these people were attacked by two or three Qing soldiers at the same time, and those Japanese soldiers who were not attacked had just reacted, but before they could help, their comrades had already fallen in a pool of blood.

The soldiers in ambush of the Qing army were on both sides of the road, only about two or three meters away from the Japanese army, and their bodies were covered with grass and trees camouflage, and the whole road was full of such pictures, plus the cover of night, the Japanese army had no way to distinguish whether it was the real grass and trees, or the disguised enemy.

"Who the fuck told you that gunshots were orders?" And in the high place behind, Wang Sirui, who was only more than 20 meters away from the battlefield, couldn't help but scold when he saw this, and then looked at the five people beside him, picked up the big knife next to him and rushed down, "Don't shoot, take the knife and rush down with Lao Tzu." ”
