Chapter 100: The War of Food [Collect]

In the moments after the flares were lifted off, dozens of bullets hit Liu Xianjun's shield one after another, and dozens of sparks also lit up in the night.......

Sure enough, it can't be penetrated. Niu Hongsheng was not surprised by this, his attention was now focused on the Qing soldiers holding shields.

Under the fire of muskets again and again, these Qing soldiers did not panic, and the shields were held steadily, and the musketeers were not given the slightest chance to take advantage of the action. And there is still no group gathered together, but scattered to form several human chains.

Elite soldiers, elite soldiers!

Such a tenacious soldier is by no means an ordinary soldier. "Too calm, too composed." Compared to those green battalion soldiers who had fought before, the difference was too great. The resident green camp in Henan and Shandong is scum! Even the elite Thunder Army in the Hunan Army is inferior.

Niu Hongsheng's eyes flashed with a bright light. The Twist Army rarely dealt with Liu Xian, but it seemed to be good to hear about this Qing army. But with the previous two battles at the bottom, and today's elite army fighting at night, how good is Liu Xian's army?

After the end of the battle in Caozhou, Liu Xian's army will inevitably become one of the new henchmen of the Twist Army.

To be clear, the three wars happened in less than two days.

The three flares were quickly extinguished in the air, and darkness was once again restored in front of the camp. The dark shadows were still thinking about the approach of the camp.

"Grenade ready."

Niu Hongsheng's order was passed into the army. A group of musketeers, having loaded their ammunition, did not shoot again, but immediately got up and took a few steps back towards the rampart, giving way to the barricade to fire from the position.

"Vote." Gao Qiong yelled.

"Snach...... Thirty grenades were thrown far away amid the burning sound of the line of fire.

These pitchers were the farthest and most accurate group of people who threw grenades in the Twist Army, and one by one the grenades sparked a perfect arc in the dark sky, and accurately landed in the attacking Liu Xian army. Although the places illuminated by the flares were only a few people who chatted with a few people, no matter how little they were, they were still a piece of meat.

Amid the sound of explosions, the screams outside the camp followed, and thirty grenades at least killed no less than their own number of Liu Xian's soldiers.

However, the attacking force was Liu Xian's garrison, and all the squadron leaders, and even some squad leaders, were all served by the old brothers of the swordsman era, and both combat effectiveness and cohesion were the first grade in Liu Xian's army. Although the loss is not small, it is still calm and unchaotic. Those screams stopped after a while.

The order to counterattack was also sounded in the garrison. Liu Xianjun, who often plays with firearms, is very familiar with how to guard against firearms. Liu Xian's army has always been fully prepared for the battle. For example, the shield that these people now rely on to protect themselves, the thickness of which is the best number they can get from the power of the musket in their hands. Although the overall weight is more than 50 pounds, it can block the gun tightly, which is the most important thing for them.

As for the enemy's grenadiers, of course, they have to use the same means to counteract.

No grenadier would have only one grenade on him, these people were the ones who were most afraid of being blown up by grenades and flowering shells.

"Throw."

After the defending Twist Army had just finished throwing grenades, the Liu Xian Army in the forefront also threw a lot of grenades at the town wall twenty or thirty paces away. It's just that a considerable part of it fell outside the town, and the one-foot-high town wall was broken.

But compared to throwing grenades, the Twist Army, who has just come into contact with grenades for a long time, still can't compare with Liu Xianjun's grenadiers who have been accustomed to this thing for many years.

Soon grenades landed on the town ramparts, blasting the bombardiers and musketeers of the Twisters with their heads in their hands.

The daredevils rushed all the way to the front of the town wall, and one by one they threw the gunpowder bags to the camp gate and the root of the wall, the line of fire had been ignited, and the sneering sparks were extremely conspicuous in the night, and one by one should be in Liu Xian's eyes.

"The first and second brigades are ready." Liu Xian's face became completely grim, and the opportunity for success or failure was here.

Take Wangtun Town, and tomorrow will go straight to the high-rise village.

Zhang Zongyu ate a piece of fat from the boss in one bite. The Monk Greenqin Department was the elite of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, with luxurious equipment, and there was no shortage of new weapons purchased from Britain and France. Liu Xian also has to share profits no matter what.

In the past two days, he has been desperately fighting in the high-rise village, in addition to making a show to Beijing, another important reason is the legacy of Monk Greenqin.

Those are all things that he can't buy even if he has money. snatched it back from the hands of the Twist Army, it was his own Liu Xian.

Niu Hongsheng's face was also tense. He didn't know how many soldiers such as the garrison were in Liu Xian's army. But he must keep Wangtun Town.

Maintain the 'relative independence' of the battlefield. Protect the security of the western road of the Twisted Army.

The roar of the "bang bang ......" gunpowder pack was deafening. The men and horses of the garrison discarded their heavy shields and rushed into the town of Wangtun in the face of the fire.

"Boom, boom, boom ......" is an earthen cannon.

It is a large shotgun that is completely equivalent to a small mountain splitting cannon, and when it is shot out, it will be powdered within a dozen steps. The thick barrel of the cannon was stuffed with gunpowder, iron sand, and gravel, and when it was sprayed out, you can imagine what effect it would have on people.

But the soaring casualties could not stop the advance of the garrison, they were Liu Xian's personal soldiers, and they should be the most elite and elite of the entire Liu Xian army. Naturally, it is also the team that is not afraid of death and can gnaw bones the most.

In the more than a year since the development of Liu Xian's team, he has kept instilling in the army the obligations of soldiers and the glory of the army.

The main battle brigade is a garrison brigade, and the garrison brigade looks down on the main battle brigade.

Just like the descendants look down on miscellaneous cards, and the forbidden army looks down on the van army.

The former pounced, and one after the other rushed up, stepping on the corpses of their comrades, and gushing blood, and they killed the Twist army at the cost of a small half of the dead and wounded.

"Kill—"

"Kill—"

The collapsed town gate and the broken wall are the way for the garrison to break through, and they are also the clear evidence that the front line of the Twist Army has been completely opened. The soldiers of the garrison soon collided with the Twist Army, and the two armies quickly mixed together in the shouting and killing.

"Damn it!" The sword eyebrows were raised, and Liu Xian's face was full of anger. "Niu Hongsheng, you bastard...... I can't spare you! ”

First grenades, then earthen cannons. Before engaging in hand-to-hand combat, half of the five hundred soldiers of the garrison fell, and these were Liu Xian's heart.

Knowing that there would be such a large casualty, he would rather take out the mortar cannon now than save the flowering shell that didn't carry too much for tomorrow's 'food war'!
