Chapter 255: Unexpected Combat Effectiveness
Listening to Inspector Liu's words, Xu Xianchun was stunned, looked at Inspector Liu in disbelief and said loudly: "What did you say? Say it again? ”
Stretching out his hand and pointing outside the city, Inspector Liu shouted loudly: "Our reinforcements are coming, we are waiting!" ”
Looking in the direction of Liu Xunjian's finger, a pair of men and horses came not far away, and it was actually a team of cavalry running in the front. However, the number is not very large, only a few dozen people, and everyone has a flag behind them, which can be seen to be the leading probe.
It's just that Xu Xianchun was surprised that these people didn't mean to be a horse scout, each of them took a knife and rushed towards the rebel team. This stunned everyone, including the rebels under the city. A cavalry contingent of dozens of people rushed over like that, and it looked like a joke no matter how you look at it. Xu Xianchun, who was standing in the city, had a feeling of irony, he had thought about five hundred against three thousand, which already made him feel crazy. Of course, these 500 people must be elites, are these dozens of people the legendary heavenly soldiers and generals?
But the results surprised everyone, just these dozens of people, dozens of horses, waving the way in their hands and rushing into the rebels. Chop left and right, rush and kill, just like a tiger. All the rebels who came forward were hacked to death under their horses, and the leader rode a red tall horse, with a large gun in his hand. The big gun stabbed left and right. Blood flew, and countless heads were picked up, and they were unstoppable.
Looking at the battlefield under the city in a daze, Xu Xianchun's face was full of disbelief, from the clothes of these people, Xu Xianchun could see that these people were all from the three major battalions. Xu Xianchun is very familiar with the three major battalions, and he knows the combat effectiveness of the three battalions very well. But the scene in front of him shattered his cognition, how could the brave cavalry below be a member of the three major battalions? Even the elite of the border army doesn't have such courage and combat power, right?
Although it was unstoppable, but soon these people fell into a heavy encirclement, and Xiong Tingbi's heart sank, and he secretly said in his heart: "Although they are very brave, they are still a little reckless, and these dozens of people are afraid that they will die here." ”
But before Xu Xianchun's thoughts could land, the city suddenly remembered a crackling sound. Hearing this voice, Xu Xianchun was stunned, he was very familiar with this voice, this was the sound of a musket.
Xu Xianchun hurriedly leaned on the wall and looked down, and in the direction where the cavalry had just rushed over, a group of officers and soldiers appeared again. There were quite a few men in this army, about four or five hundred, and each of them had a musket in his hand. Dozens of people were divided into teams. Seeing this team, Xu Xianchun laughed, it was the people of the firearms battalion. It's just that the shooting method of the firearms battalion quickly attracted Xu Xianchun, and the battalion soldiers below formed a group of three, first the musketeers at the front fired, and then retreated to the rear of the team to concentrate on loading ammunition, and the second soldier stepped forward to fire. The three of them alternately reload and fire, and the speed is very fast.
Xu Xianchun always felt that he had seen this kind of shooting method, and after thinking about it for a long time, he remembered that he had read a book that recorded the war in the south at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the barbarians in the south possessed elephants, which caused heavy losses to the Ming army. At that time, the general of the conquest was Mu Ying of the Principality of Mu, and in order to deal with this kind of elephant, Mu Ying invented this method. Concentrated and dense muskets shot at elephants and won the battle.
However, after the entire firearms battalion was abandoned, no one paid attention to the tactics, but it was surprising enough to see hundreds of people shooting collectively. Watching the rebels fall in rows like wheat, Xu Xianchun felt for the first time that Da Ming was also strong.
However, Xu Xianchun soon discovered that the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion did not seem to be using the original arquebus, but should be said to be an improved arquebus. After shooting for so long, none of them blew up, and it seems that the range is a little farther than the original. Looking at the musket in the soldier's hand, Xu Xianchun knew that these were probably newly made.
After thinking of this, a young face suddenly flashed in Xu Xianchun's mind, it seemed that this majesty had done a lot of things. Not only do I not know, but others probably don't know.
When Xu Xianchun was thinking nonsense, the rebels had already begun to be chaotic and scattered and fled. The role of the dozens of cavalry was shown at this time, and through the battle just now, they already knew which were the leaders of the traitors, and at this time they slapped their horses under their crotches and chased after them.
After the soldiers and horses of the Shenji Battalion appeared, on the hillside not far away, countless men and horses appeared. These people surrounded the rebels in a semicircle, and seeing this scene, Xu Xianchun knew that the overall situation had been decided. The gates below the city had been opened, reinforcements from outside the city had entered, and the rebels in the city had been quickly eliminated.
More than 1,000 of the 3,000 rebels were killed, and the rest were all captured, and the leader of the rebels was a man in his thirties. However, Xu Xianchun didn't see that person for the first time, because he fainted.
When he woke up again, it was already night, and looking at the moonlight outside, Xu Xianchun's mood was quite indifferent. Without the joy of the rest of his life, without the fear of death, Xu Xianchun didn't know what kind of emotion he was. After this incident, Xu Xianchun seems to have undergone a transformation, and the utilitarian heart is still there, but it is not so urgent.
Thinking of his father's complicated gaze at him before, Xu Xianchun suddenly had a hint of understanding in his heart, and seemed to understand something. Slowly getting up, I felt some pain in my waist and a little dizziness.
seemed to feel a little dry mouth, Xu Xianchun said in a hoarse voice: "Someone! ”
Hearing Xu Xianchun's shout, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a delicate woman walked in with a small porcelain bowl. With a sweet smile at Xu Xianchun, the woman said softly: "The adult is awake, the slave and maid pour a glass of water for the adult!" With that, the woman walked to the front of the table and poured Xu Xianchun a glass of water.
With the clear water in his stomach, Xu Xianchun asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Where is this? ”
"Lord Hui, this is Qingyue Tower, and the inspector sent you here. The adult was injured, and the inspector asked the slave to serve the adult well! The woman smiled lightly and brought over the porcelain bowl just now, which was a bowl of shredded chicken porridge.
Just as he was about to reach out and take it, it seemed to pull the wound, Xu Xianchun frowned. Seeing this, the woman hurriedly supported Xu Xianchun and said softly: "The adult is injured, let's let the slave come!" As she spoke, the woman picked up the porcelain bowl on the side, took a spoonful of porridge, put it to her mouth and blew it gently, and then sent it to Xu Xianchun's mouth.
"The porridge is good, and your cooks here are good! It's almost time to catch up with my house. Xu Xianchun smiled indifferently and said to the woman beside him. What kind of place is this, Xu Xianchun naturally understands, and he also knows the identity of the woman around him. However, as a brocade guard, he doesn't care about these, and at this time, the scholar sleeps in the flowers and willows, which is also considered to be an elegant thing. However, Xu Xianchun's opinion on Liu's inspection is good or not, he is really good at doing things.
The woman was stunned when she heard Xu Xianchun's words, he didn't know Xu Xianchun's identity, Liu Inspector just said that this was a big official. But the woman didn't think much about it, this was not a problem she cared about, smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly: "Thank you, the slave, for the compliment, the porridge was made by the slave." ”
Slightly stunned, Xu Xianchun looked the woman up and down, the woman's age is not very old, sixteen or seventeen years old, but she looks very beautiful. He speaks softly and greasy, and his voice is also very beautiful.
After drinking the last mouthful of porridge, Xu Xianchun asked with a smile, "What about Inspector Liu?" ”
"Lord Hui, Lord Zhixian is also here, and Lord Inspector and Lord County are accompanying Qincha to eat. The inspector has explained, the adult can recuperate here, we have told the news that the adult has woken up to Liu Patrol, I believe they will come in a while! The woman smiled softly and said in a coquettish voice.
Xu Xianchun was slightly stunned, why is it Qincha again? After a little thought, Xu Xianchun knew that it was probably this time to suppress the bandits. Thinking of this, Xu Xianchun was also a little curious, seeing the combat effectiveness of the Beijing camp today, Xu Xianchun was also curious. Who is the person who has such the ability to turn the originally unbearable Beijing camp into this? Could it be Sun Chuanting?
Now it is Sun Chuanting who is in charge of the Beijing camp, it is not surprising that Xu Xianchun thinks so, looking at the woman next to him, Xu Xianchun asked in a deep voice: "What is your name?" ”
"Back to the adult, the slave maid's maid's surname is Li, and the cheap name is Tiantian." The woman smiled at Xu Xianchun and said respectfully.
Hearing the woman report to her home, Xu Xianchun was stunned, this is not right! Ordinary Qinglou women all report their stage names, how can they report their real names when they come up?
As if seeing Xu Xianchun's doubts, the woman smiled lightly and said in a coquettish voice: "Don't be surprised, the magistrate bought the slave after learning about the adult. There was no one around the adult to serve, so the magistrate let the slave and maid come over to serve. ”
Nodding slowly, Xu Xianchun didn't expect that this magistrate, who had never met, would have such a mind. Since this is the case, he will laugh and accept it, otherwise it will make others uneasy, glancing at the woman, Xu Xianchun asked in a deep voice: "How long have you debuted?" ”
"My lord, the slave has not yet received a guest, but her body is clean. The slave was trained by her mother since she was a child, and she was supposed to be an Oiran, but now she can't do it. I hope that in the future, by the side of adults, I can feel more sorry for the slaves! Hearing Xu Xianchun's words, the woman was slightly stunned, and then said miserably.
Xu Xianchun praised again in his heart, this county is not an ordinary person, and the gift is really comfortable. Looking at the woman's delicate face, Xu Xianchun nodded with satisfaction, it is still good to take it back to be a concubine. The magistrate who hadn't met, Xu Xianchun was also a little curious.
