After eating, Zhu Houzhao and the others were going to Texas. On the way to the dock, the five hundred soldiers of the land and water battalion were already cautiously approaching, each with their guns already loaded with ammunition and ready to deal with the emergency.

The crowd was separated by a small road leading to the wharf by the water and land camps, about five meters wide, and it was about two miles from Linqing City to the wharf in total.

Zhu Houzhao and a group of people slowly walked to the dock, while Zhu Yuan led people to follow after a distance of more than ten meters. When he walked less than 100 meters away from the dock, he suddenly rushed out of the crowd on the side, took out the short knife in his arms, and ran quickly towards Zhu Houzhao and his party without saying a word.

The group of people was only less than 20 meters away from the path, and Zhu Yuan couldn't care so much, and shouted "Shoot." About thirty soldiers of the amphibious battalion nearby fired conditionally, lowered their guns, and there was a burst of gunfire "bang", and the two hundred people who attacked fell at least a tenth, but this did not stop their footsteps, and at this time, as long as they took a few steps forward, they could be handed over in a short manner.

Zhu Houzhao brought a second round of firing of more than 50 people, all of whom had been in the army for more than a year, and had also experienced all kinds of battles, large and small, and did not panic in the face of the enemy who was close at hand, and more than 50 guns opened fire at almost the same time, which also brought huge casualties to the enemy.

The battle that took place here made the people around them stunned for a moment, and then they cried and ran in other directions, and the only thought in their heads was to stay away from the right and wrong place. Adults screamed, children cried, and the scene was chaotic.

The crowd running around also brought a big obstacle to Zhu Yuan's rescue, but dozens of soldiers from the nearby water and land battalions were already very close and ready to shoot. For these recruits, they have done a very good job, although mainly by orders from veterans who are already commanders. At this time, some of the nearest thirty or so soldiers were still loading ammunition, and some directly threw their guns to the ground and pulled out the Yanling knife on their waists. As a soldier of the land and water battalion, cold weapons are also an important subject of training.

The two people rushed together in an instant, and the shouts in their mouths were all boosting their morale. The two Zhu Houzhao brothers just led the team to take a few steps back to buy time for the team to reload ammunition. The two of them and Ma Sanniang still stood at the front of the team.

The thirty men who were fighting in front suddenly reached four or five, and the enemy was even more about ten, and the few people who were loading ammunition just now were all new recruits, and now they could only hold muskets and block the enemy's short knives. Fortunately, the quality of the musket was excellent, and there were no cases of the gun being cut, but the barrel was slowly deforming, and they did not have time to draw the waist knife, and the situation was still not optimistic.

To add insult to injury, in the crowd on the other side, there was a group of people who were different from other people, who did not leave this small battlefield, but rushed towards Zhu Houzhao and the others with sharp weapons, and the two groups of people formed a flanking attack.

The area where the thirty people in front of them were engaged with the enemy was so large, and the other enemies bypassed both sides and continued to rush towards Zhu Houzhao. And Zhu Houzhao's team continued to reload, and the enemy was only ten meters away from them.

At this time, the two Zhu Houzhao brothers took out a short gun from their waists, and the two of them shot "bang", and the two enemies fell. Zhu Houzhao hit the enemy's heart and hit it with a fatal blow. Zhu Houwei was about to be bloody, he hit the enemy's head, and suddenly, an exploding watermelon appeared on the battlefield, and a big hole appeared in front of the watermelon, and the red and white watermelon juice splashed everywhere, and the enemies on both sides were startled, and then immediately continued to move forward. This group of people is not afraid of death, their eyes are full of fanaticism, being startled is just a normal reaction of people, but it will not discourage them, Zhu Houwei understands in his heart that this group of people should be people in the cult.

Ma Sanniang was powerful, and two flying knives were sent out, and the enemy also fell in response, followed by two flying knives, and the enemy lost their combat effectiveness again. However, the attack of the three people could not stop the hundred or so, but fortunately, the team behind was already loaded. This time the shooting used the old method, three-stage shooting, and slowly retreated while shooting to buy time.

There were about twenty people who fired the guns, and at a distance of less than ten meters, even if they were recruits, they would basically not miss the target, and besides, this group of enemies stood relatively densely.

The team retreated while shooting, causing huge casualties to the enemy, Ma Sanniang did not hide it, and the firepower was full, which surprised the Zhu Houzhao brothers, and they sent out more than ten knives in a surprise, but Ma Sanniang still did not weaken the firepower.

A group of people on the other side were handed over to the soldiers of the land and water battalion brought by Zhu Yuan, that group of people is about 300 people, and it should be no problem to hand them over to Zhu Yuan, Zhu Houzhao What they have to do now is to slowly retreat to the boat docked at the dock but ready to set sail.

Looking down from the top of the battlefield, you will find that most of the people seem to be retreated to the periphery of the battlefield by an invisible layer of air, and inside the battlefield, they are separated by several small pieces. The white smoke would block the view, but it was possible to guess that it was the men of the land and water battalion who were shooting. The crowd with cold weapons fell round by round, but a few people rushed into the range of gunsmoke, bringing casualties and chaos to the land and water battalions.

Zhu Houzhao's side has already entered a handover, after all, the distance of ten meters is still too close. Zhu Houzhao is fighting with the enemy with a waist knife, others can't stop it at all, Zhu Houzhao's desire for the battlefield is only known to Zhu Houwei, seeing him wielding a waist knife, with blood on his face but still smiling, Zhu Houwei knows that this brother is enjoying.

Zhu Houzhao was not the only one who fought with cold weapons, and there were also ten people from the land and water battalion who joined the battle, and while killing the enemy, they also had to pay attention to protecting Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houwei was not confident in his martial arts, and his body had not grown yet, and his strength was not enough, so he was very lethal in cold weapon battles, so he took two steps back, loaded his short gun, and released the cold gun at any time. As the largest firepower output, Ma Sanniang is undoubtedly the first, at this time she has drawn out the katana to fight on the front line, basically can do one knife at a time, it can be said that in this battle, Ma Sanniang's real combat power has been released to the maximum, in just a few seconds, three enemies have fallen.

"Bang bang" There was a burst of gunfire, and the remnants of the enemy were reduced again, and there were less than ten people who could stand. Suddenly, two enemies threw the short knives in their hands at Zhu Houzhao, but at this time, Zhu Houzhao did not notice it, and was still concentrating on fighting with the enemy in front of him. Zhu Houwei didn't shout, because he knew that if Zhu Houzhao was distracted at this time, he might be hit hard. There was no way, he took a step forward, ready to knock off one of the flying short knives with a short gun of more than thirty centimeters in his hand, he was not confident in the results.

At this critical moment, Ma Sanniang slashed with a long knife in her hand, and a lancet flew out with her backhand, stopping the advance of the two short knives, and then turned around and used it erected in front of her chest to block the enemy's slash.

"Bang", the enemy who was fighting with Ma Sanniang was stunned, and then lost all strength and fell to the ground softly. Ma Sanniang glanced back at the white smoke that did not drift around Zhu Houwei and his somewhat smug smile, and then immediately turned her head and prepared to continue to destroy the remnants of the enemy.

When Ma Sanniang turned around, her pupils shrank, because she found that two short knives flew over again, and this time the target was Zhu Houwei.

Zhu Houwei was still observing Ma Sanniang's back with a sense of security, anyway, he was far away from the enemy, thinking that there were few enemies left, and there should be no danger. It's a pity that he was slapped in the face immediately, and before he could figure out what was going on, he saw Ma Sanniang's katana knock, and with a "dang" sound, a short knife fell in response, and Ma Sanniang held another short knife in his left hand, and then the short knife fell to the ground, but Zhu Houwei clearly saw that the red blood in Ma Sanniang's hand was falling drop by drop.

There was a burst of gunshots, and there were no more enemies standing here. On the battlefield, every second must be counted, and a difference of one second may result in many sacrifices. There were only more than a dozen soldiers of the 30 or so land battalions who fought in front of them who were still fighting at this time, and the number of enemies was about the same. The two sides are intertwined, and if you want to use a musket, it will definitely cause accidental injury.

Zhu Houzhao shouted, "Follow me." Then with the troops behind him holding waist knives, he rushed to the dozens of people who were still fighting, and Ma Sanniang also rushed forward, as if she didn't hear Zhu Houwei calling her.

The number of people was superior, the length of the weapon, the quality was also superior, and the enemy was quickly eliminated. The next step was to treat the wounded, and Zhu Houzhao rushed to the battlefield on the other side with more than 30 people to reinforce the battlefield, although the situation was basically under control there.

Zhu Houwei quickly issued instructions, for him, this is not the first time he has done such a thing. With command, things became orderly, and now the main thing is to do a good job of emergency treatment, bandage wounds, and prevent the wounded soldiers from losing too much blood. Later, it will still be handed over to the military doctors and nurses who come with the army for treatment.

When Zhu Houwei was arranged, he looked back and saw that Ma Sanniang was standing on the other side watching the situation on Zhu Houzhao's side, and the wounds on her hands had already been bandaged by herself.

Zhu Houwei slowly walked to her side, and also pretended to watch the situation on Zhu Houzhao's side, but the rest of the eyes were observing Ma Sanniang. Ma Sanniang seemed to have known that someone was coming next to her, and when she was not far behind just now, Zhu Houwei saw her body tighten, and then let go.

The two were silent for a while, and Zhu Houwei felt a little embarrassed, so he said, "Sanniang, thanks to you for saving me today." Thank you. ”

Ma Sanniang said calmly, "You also saved me, no need to thank you." Zhu Houwei spoke again: "The wound on your hand has not been disinfected, it may become inflamed, and we will bandage you again after our military doctor comes." Ma Sanniang nodded expressionlessly and didn't say anything.

Zhu Houwei couldn't think of the topic for a while, and it happened that the military doctor who was guarded by dozens of soldiers from the land and water battalions in the distance came, which was considered to have broken the embarrassment.
