Chapter 66: A dozen Yao villages

June 5th

On the mountain road leading from Yao Village to Pan Village, more than 200 people and horses of Shifo Mountain are ambushed on the mountain beams on both sides of the mountain road, and the big lifting poles and earth cannons are densely arranged in the woods on the hillside, and a lot of land mines are also buried on the road in the mountain and on both sides, which will explode as soon as they are pulled.

However, this time, the "wealthy" Shifoshan not only dispatched these people, in addition to the mountain guards, more than 100 people went to Pancun Village to make a feint.

But until the afternoon, there was still no movement in the direction of Yaocun.

"The big boss, the big boss is not good!" A bandit who went to a stone Buddha Mountain in Pan Village also ran back, shouting as he ran.

The team ambushed in the forest all looked at him in an instant, and "Bad Water Ma" grabbed the mountain bandit, stopped him from yelling, and asked, "Take a breath, tell me more details, what's wrong?" ā€

"Brother Lin, they were scattered, and the people in Pan Village are not from the village protection team, so they are all fast guns."

Wu Xiaoya and "Bad Shui Ma" looked at each other, more than 100 people, there was no news all morning, and now there is a broken up.

"Get up, hurry up, let's go back to Pan Village and have a look!" Knowing that the people on his side have a low culture, he couldn't ask anything after asking for a long time, so he directly pulled the team to the scene to have a look.

Halfway through, I met the three masters who were withdrawn, Lin Dakun. This is also the old man left by Shi Foshan, after Wu Xiaoya took office, no one was available, so he was chosen as the third master.

After everyone's gossip of explanations, Wu Xiaoya and "Bad Water Ma" knew that they were blown up by the other party with the earthen cannon at the entrance of the village.

Wu Xiaoya was so angry that her braids were almost erected, in order to feint, so this passerby deliberately did not bring heavy weapons, I didn't expect you to bring it, others have big guys. As soon as the other party fired the cannon, the people here scattered in a hurry. Fortunately, the other party didn't chase it, otherwise the loss would have been even greater, "The big boss, really, they are really different from before." Awesome! The marksmanship is particularly accurate! Lin Dakun, the third master, explained profusely. It is not good to be a teacher, but in ancient times, it can be directly "clicked", and this rule is generally the same even in the Republic of China.

"Forget it, it's all here, take me to see it." Wu Xiaoya tightened the two shell guns on her waist, looking like a tigress, of course, this gun was also given to her by Zhao Yun.

There are more than 300 people in the two groups of men and horses, and they are the main force among the mountain bandits. There are all kinds of big lifters, shotguns, muskets, Mauser pistols, and "made in Hanyang", but there are no earthen cannons.

The earth cannons were all left in the ambush place just now, and the land mines and earth cannons were not convenient to transport, so Wu Xiaoya left fifty people in the same place and went straight to Pan Village. Although this earthen cannon is not heavy, it is compared to a cannon made of iron, and it is impossible to carry this thing over the mountains and mountains.

Wu Xiaoya led the people of Shifoshan to a place more than two hundred steps outside Pan Village and stopped, this is also the place where the people of Shifoshan were annihilated last time.

Before coming to the village, Wu Xiaoya began to carefully look at this village that made Shifoshan "hate". After some exploration, Wu Xiaoya felt that this place was really different, and the layout of this village was similar to the "fortress village" that Zhao Yun said. Just a village, even built a big wooden gate, and there are people standing on it, you know how strong the defense of this village is.

This kind of defense can only be found, not forced. In order not to force her to break into Pan Datou's Yao Village, Zhao Yun also deliberately told her a lot of siege stories that he had heard before. Therefore, Wu Xiaoya has a certain theoretical knowledge in dealing with fortifications such as city gates.

Of course, these belong to three knives, why three knives? Because her teacher, Zhao Yun is also a second knife, and she has only heard of it, but she has never tried it, and the general direction is correct, but the details are far behind. It is conceivable what kind of siege tactics of this generation can become.

After watching the entrance of the village for a long time, Wu Xiaoya felt that it was not a way to wait like this, so she asked her cronies to call the door, "Huh! As soon as Wu Xiaoya finished speaking, how far away the cronies around her flashed and how far away. The last time I hit Pan Village, what happened to the one who went to shout, who doesn't know!

Seeing that the cronies around her were all like this, Wu Xiaoya shouted with a calm face, "Draw lots!" ā€

This is the old rule in the cottage, it is generally risky, and it is decided that no one does more work. Everyone didn't dare to refute, so they could only get a branch and guess the length. As a result, a cronie went trembling under Wu Xiaoya's advice.

The people in Shifo Mountain here are also prepared, and the last time the people in Shifo Mountain were annihilated was because they were not prepared when they called the door.

The shouting trembling walked a few steps, walked a distance that he thought was safe, and shouted to the entrance of the village: "Listen to the old and young people in the village, we are from Shifoshan, and we are here to trouble Pan Datou, and it has nothing to do with you." As long as you surrender, we will never kill innocents indiscriminately, you think about it carefully, so as not to regret it! ā€

The cronie shouted to the village several times, the village was quiet, there was no movement, and he didn't dare to touch it to see if there was anyone in the village, so he had no choice but to return to Wu Xiaoya's side to resume his life.

Seeing that there was no reaction in the village, many people in Shifo Mountain built yƬ to attack the city immediately, Wu Xiaoya thought for a while, "Go cut down the tree, make a wooden shield, and come again!" ā€

"The big boss doesn't even know if there is anyone in the village, why are we going to cut wood? In my opinion, attack now. "The three masters saw that there were a large number of people on their side, and their courage rebounded.

"Okay, I'll send you to see if there is anyone in the village, and if not, shout!" Wu Xiaoya replied to him, and walked towards the foot of the mountain without looking back.

The three masters held back for a long time, and they didn't dare to go to the village to see, so they could only lower their heads and go to chop wood with Wu Xiaoya.

After about an hour, more than a dozen rough wooden shield carts were pushed out.

Two wheelbarrows, with a dozen horizontal logs on them, were set up in a row to form a wooden shield cart. If the bullet hits the wood, I don't know if it will penetrate or not, but it should be difficult to penetrate the scattered pieces hit by the guns and artillery, but the gap between the logs will not be managed.

Pushing the wooden shield cart slowly, the people of Shifoshan Mountain were all leaning behind the wooden shield cart, and there were more than 20 people holding wine bottles and clay pots, which were filled with a mixture of spirits and sugar, which Zhao Yun taught Wu Xiaoya to use to burn wooden walls. Wu Xiaoya also tried it with good results, so she made dozens of them, and brought them out this time.

The man behind the wooden shield is armed with a rifle, and if the enemy appears behind the wooden wall, he must deal a blow to the enemy at the first opportunity.

Behind them were people with miscellaneous weapons, and Wu Xiaoya pressed all of them as soon as the battle began. "Bad water hemp" has no opinion on this, there are so many people on his side, and there are at most 100 people in the village.

Three to one, there is still a surplus!

Eighty paces closer, bullet holes in the wooden wall could already be seen. There was still no sound in the village, and two shield carts had fallen apart because they were too heavy, so they had to be parked there.

Finally, fifty paces closer, through the cracks in the wooden wall, a figure could be seen behind the wooden wall.

Suddenly, a shout of "open fire" from behind the wooden wall indicated that the battle between the two sides had officially begun. Four earthen cannons were stretched out of the wooden wall, facing the four wooden shields, "Boom! "Boom!" "Boom!" Three rings, "Knock! "One door exploded.

Three loud bangs brought three iron eggs, at a speed visible to the naked eye, blasted out the muzzle, hit the wooden shield, the wooden shield on three sides immediately split apart, sawdust flew sideways, the people behind the wooden shield immediately screamed and covered their faces, covered their waists, and the people behind the two shield cars around were also affected, many people were stabbed by the sawdust, howling and screaming, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Behind the wooden wall of Pan Village, there was also chaos, and the explosion of an earthen cannon killed several people on the spot, several were deaf, and more than a dozen people around were bombarded.

However, Shi Foshan obviously has an advantage in numbers, and they have a large number of people, and they are still worth it according to the proportion of dead and wounded.

"Kill!" Wu Xiaoya was not stunned, and directly commanded the men and horses to continue to push the wooden shield. The rifles behind the wooden shield also began to fire intensively, firing at the village guards on the wooden wall.

"Reload!" "Reload!" Pan Datou's nephew, Pan Liuye, as the captain of the village protection team, wears a long shirt and dresses as a literati, but he is by no means ambiguous in fighting. If Zhao Yun was here, he would have recognized him as the person who ran after him last time.

Commanding the earthen cannon to load, another round was fired, this time one shell did not hit, but formed a ricochet, knocked down a row of people, and the other two shattered two wooden shields.

However, with the second round of artillery fired, the distance between the two sides was less than twenty paces, and Wu Xiaoya's men began to throw wine bottles directly at the wooden wall.

"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!" It didn't take long for a flame to ignite on the wooden wall, which could not be extinguished with clothes. The people of Pan Village could only retreat into the village under the leadership of Pan Liuye.

Wu Xiaoya took advantage of the situation to lead people to occupy the wooden wall, and the three earthen cannons also became their own capture.

These three cannons look like the general cannons of the Qing Dynasty, so the power of the firing is huge, and the wooden shield collapses as soon as it is smashed.

After tidying up the team, there were more than 50 people injured and more than a dozen killed in the attack just now. Because of the wooden shield, there are relatively few injuries from gunshot bullets, but the damage caused by earthen cannons is the greatest, and eighty percent of casualties are caused by earthen cannons.

Wu Xiaoya ordered someone to clean up and prepare to enter the village to fight again.

"The big boss, the big boss is not good!" Someone on the hill behind him shouted again. As soon as Wu Xiaoya turned around and saw a spy who was out of breath, she ran to Wu Xiaoya out of breath, pointed behind her and said, "Pan Datou's men and horses are here, there are more than 300 people. ā€

When Wu Xiaoya heard the news, she almost gritted her silver teeth, "Hey! "I stomped my foot and knew that I couldn't beat Pancun today.

"Go back!" There are still more than 50 mountain bandits left on the mountain road, and it is no problem to resist once, but it will be dangerous after a long time. Turning back and glancing at Pan Village again, Wu Xiaoya asked "Bad Water Ma" to rush to reinforcements with a team of more than 100 people first, and he took the wounded soldiers and carried the earthen cannon behind the palace.

Not long after leaving, the sound of firefighting with Pan Datou's outpost was already heard in the mountains.

"Bad Shui Ma" is cool this time, he is usually a figure who walks behind in the team, so that after Wu Xiaoya breaks off, he, as the second leader, has to lead the team to quickly leave from Pan Village and rush to the ambush site.

As soon as he arrived with his front foot, a "long dragon" appeared crookedly on the opposite mountain road. Timid, he didn't care whether the other party entered the firing range or not, and immediately ordered the big lifting poles arranged in the mountains to fire in turn, and the Yao villagers were defeated and retreated one after another with a dense rain of bullets.

But this is nothing more than a preemptive advantage. The loading of the big lifting bar is much more troublesome than the rifle, and Pan Datou's team is equipped with more rifles, and the shooting accuracy of the shooter is also higher than that of the people in Shifoshan, so the gunner who fires the cannon is often shot. All of a sudden, the two sides were fighting fiercely.

However, this situation did not last long, and Shi Foshan had an overwhelming upper hand on the battlefield. Why? The large lifting bar and the earth cannon fire scattered bullets are both surface lethality, while rifle bullets are point killing, and on narrow mountain roads, it is unavoidable. At the same time, weapons such as the big lifting bar are all black powder, and in the face of the smoke caused by continuous shooting on the battlefield, of course, it is the face lethal weapon that prevails.

However, due to the early fire of the "bad water hemp", the militia in Yao Village had just entered the firing range, so they could not fight, they were still able to retreat calmly, and after this battle, the mountain was full of smoke, and the people and horses of Shifoshan could not see the situation on the mountain road and did not dare to pursue rashly.

Afterwards, the casualties were counted, and the casualties in Shifoshan were still less than those of the militia group, and of course, both sides announced to the outside world that they had repelled the enemy and won the victory.

That night, the two families started a new round of "diplomacy" on the territory of Langxi, showing their strength to the outside world, and then striving to be recognized by the local landlord armed forces and large clans.

This is not to pull allies, but to pull sponsorship. Once these third-party forces think that either Pan Datou and Wu Xiaoya are at an overwhelming disadvantage by the other party, they will have to take action to gain some benefits.

Of course, Pan Datou would not let Shifo Mountain revivenation, so he didn't care about the losses during the day, and also sent a lot of personnel and villages to publicize today's achievements.
