People say that the autumn of the Double Ninth Festival in September is high and cool, the sky is high and the clouds are wide, which is suitable for bringing relatives and friends, climbing high and overlooking.

At this time, the fort was already on strict alert, except for a few teams of soldiers in the fort, the rest of the men were young and strong, and even the women in the fort were each under wooden sticks. These bandits did not have siege equipment, and the only way they could enter Jingbian Fort was the low walled gate in front of the barracks of the outlying military households, especially the walled gate.

After seeing the situation clearly, Wang Dou led Han Chao, Han Zhong, Zhong Tiaoyang and several other officers to the gate of the village to prepare for battle.

Wang Dou now has seven teams of soldiers, each team of four bird soldiers, a total of twenty-eight bird soldiers. At this time, all the bird soldiers in the fort have been withdrawn, all standing behind the wall next to the wall, Wang Dou also specially picked out ten sword and shield soldiers and ten pikemen in two rows to stand quietly behind the bird soldiers, just waiting for the bandits to rush up and tear them apart.

In addition, there is a team led by Han Chao who does not collect and lead the horses at night, just waiting to be used for pursuit after the war.

As for Gao Shiyin, he is still the groom's official, Wang Dou asked him and Yang Tong, Qi Tianliang and a few people to stay on the castle wall with the rest of the soldiers and soldiers to guard, although his face was full of reluctance.

Beside Gao Shiyin, his newlywed wife Zheng Xiaoyun, as well as Wan Shenghe's Zheng Niangzi and Zheng Jinglun are all pale, and the bandits are ferocious and powerful, can this Jingbian Fort be defended? Regarding their worries, Gao Shiyin was naturally disdainful.

The sergeants in front of the Jingbian fortress were all standing solemnly, and everyone was not afraid, but on the contrary, there was a faint sense of excitement on their faces. For these sergeants who have been brutally trained and tempered by the battle to suppress bandits, the bandits in front of them are not only not threats, but their best source of wealth.

In the upcoming battle, Wang Dou divided these bird-fired soldiers into two groups, one assembled and one group fired, which could greatly improve the efficiency of shooting operations. At this time, the twenty-eight bird guns were standing in two rows, holding the black and thick bird guns in their hands, which had already been loaded with the paper cartridge ammunition and the fire rope.

After the bandits shouted for a while, seeing that there was no movement in the fort, they slowly gathered a few hundred paces away from Jingbian Fort, and then began to form a team.

After a while, more than a hundred men were separated, all with swords, guns, shields, and other men carrying dirt bags, and it was evident that they saw the trenches dug around the barracks outside the fort walls, and they wanted to fill them with these dirt bags.

Jingbian Fort is well-behaved, sixty paces away, and the lethality of the bird guns is extremely high, and it can easily break the shield in their hands.

"Shoot!"

The bird guns in the back row had already handed the bird guns in their hands to the hands of the brothers in the front row, and they took the bird guns that the brothers in the front row had just shot, took out the fixed paper cartridge ammunition in the oil pack, and quickly reloaded.

Another row of birds spewed out a large amount of fire smoke, and the screams were heard again.

"Shoot!"

"Shoot!"

"Shoot!"

……

The gunshots in front of the walled wall were lined up one after another, and the advantage of fixed cartridge ammunition made the two teams of bird soldiers reload extremely fast.

After several rounds of shooting, the front of the walled wall was covered with thick white smoke, Wang Dou ordered a ceasefire, and waited for the smoke to clear to see the results of the battle.

The two rows of bird-guns just cooled the smoking bird-guns in their hands, and after a few rounds of shooting, the bird-guns in everyone's hands were hot and had to be cooled. Otherwise, under the high temperature in the gun, the poured gunpowder will be in danger of burning immediately.

The smoke finally cleared, and Wang Dou and the others saw dozens of rolling and screaming bandits on the ground within a range of more than ten to sixty steps, some of whom were killed on the spot, and some of whom were not dead, but were screaming loudly on the ground in a blur of flesh and blood.

When the smoke cleared, Wang Dou and the others also saw dozens of bandits who were standing in front of their brothers' corpses, their mouths were wide open, as if they didn't expect the firearms in Jingbian Fort to be so powerful, and before they rushed close to the wall, dozens of brothers were injured and died.

The wall in front of me is not high, and the trench trap is not very deep (). Then, within a few dozen paces of the bird's range, it was like a death zone, filling in the lives of many of their brothers.

Looking at the terrible scene in front of them, the faces of the bandits changed from stunned to frightened, and suddenly they shouted hoarsely, turned and ran back, they threw away their armor, and all the weapons in their hands were thrown away, just to run faster.

Seeing them shouting and fleeing, Han Chao and Han Zhong brothers were also very surprised, the two of them had been in the border camp for a long time, how could they have seen such a powerful and fast bird? They just muttered, "What a sharp firearm......"

For the first time, the Jingbian Fort Bird Gun showed its outstanding power in a large-scale battle!

……

Looking at the results in front of the fort, Zheng Niangzi, Zheng Jinglun and others on the fort wall were also surprised, Zheng Xiaoyun just clapped her hands and laughed, and Zheng Jinglun muttered: "Is this still an officer and soldier?" ”

After the group of bandits fled back, there was also a commotion in most of the bandits, and a few people who looked like leaders seemed to be shouting and scolding, but no matter what they said, no one was willing to lead the army to come, these bandits were mostly a rabble, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, seeing that Jingbian Fort was so difficult to gnaw, it was greatly unexpected to them, and after scolding for a long time, they had to withdraw their troops and retreat.

According to the news from all sides, there are as many as 3,000 thieves who have entered Baoan Prefecture this time, and the core of its backbone is a cavalry of more than 300 people, and the rest are some old and weak or a group of outcasts.

On the 12th, most of the thieves invaded the city of Baozhou, and the integrity officer Xu Zucheng was furious.

There is also news that when the young lady in the Zhizhou Mansion was on her way to the Acropolis, she encountered bandits on the road, and if it weren't for the loyal protection of the lord by her subordinates, she fled to the death, I am afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable.

It is imperative to exterminate the bandits in Baoan Prefecture, especially under the strict orders of the garrison, Xu Zucheng decided to send orders to all forts and gather troops to exterminate this gang of bandits.
