The straight-line distance from Baoshan to Taicang is about 80 miles, Wang Feng and Hong Xuanjiao did not lead the army at noon, and advanced at an ordinary slightly slower speed, and in the evening in the middle of Taicang and Jiading, they found the grain team that was slowly approaching.

Li Erhu leaned over and said: "The supervising army, the division commander, the Qing army's grain transport team went out of the city early in the morning, and it was late in the evening before walking for more than 20 miles, there is really a problem!" ”

Hong Xuanjiao nodded with a heavy face: "I just received the news that dozens of small gunboats in Kunshan sailed along the Suzhou River, obviously to intercept us, but I don't know how far the foreigners are from us, so it's better not to be caught." ”

As he was talking, Hong Xuanjiao held Wang Feng's shoulders and stood on tiptoe to look, and the Qing army's grain brigade about a mile ahead obviously found that he was blocked by a Taiping army of 2,000 people.

Xiangyong is also the local group training, by the Jiaqing period of Hezhou Zhizhou Gong Jinghan on the "Jianbi Qingye and Recruit Fu Proposal" to build yì set, the court ordered the local gentleman training, inventory and protection, Jianbi Qingye, local self-protection, the funds for running the group are from the people, by the chief of the practice of the master, this is the authentic squire's private arm, and the Qing court in addition to the name of the subordination, in fact, there is no other relationship.

This group of village warriors, due to the short time of forming the army and the lack of sufficient training, everyone's face is more or less nervous, and there are even people whose arms and thighs are trembling, after all, they are facing extremely vicious bandits, or two thousand!

Moreover, due to the short time they had been in the army, they did not have time to buy them, and their equipment was extremely inferior, there were no flintlock pistols, only a few dozen arquebuses, and the bows and arrows were not a pair of bows and arrows, and the only fully equipped was spears.

In the face of such an army, there was no pressure, Hong Xuanjiao said again: "Wang Feng, do you want to attack immediately?" It should be no problem to take the food and hurry up. ”

Wang Feng shook his head: "The attack is to attack, but we can only feint, our goal is to introduce the foreigners into the mine array, how to run away with the grain truck?" I am afraid that before I reached the ground, I was killed by a burst of random guns surrounded by foreigners, you know, we only have dozens of mini guns, and foreigners have one mini gun is certain, according to my estimate, since Xu Naizhao has set up such a large pocket array, foreigners must have at least five or six hundred. ”

Everyone's faces showed a look of pity, if this hundred carts were fully loaded with grain, seven or eight hundred thousand catties would be fine, but Wang Feng's scruples were very reasonable, the foreigners' guns were too strong, and it was not the time to fight hard.

Zhou Xiaoying, the female brigade commander, looked at the grain team with burning eyes, and couldn't help but say: "Xu Naizhao's purpose is to lure us into the drain, there is no need to really use food as bait, if there is a mistake, wouldn't he cry and faint in the toilet?" ”

"Impossible!" Li Erhu followed and said: "Xu Naizhao was robbed by us in the grain camp, what will his seven or eight thousand people eat if he doesn't transport grain?" What's more, his set is still quite thorough, the gunboats and foreigners are all in battle, as long as we get in, it will be certain death, so he should not worry about the problem of the grain truck being robbed, using the grain truck as bait is just killing two birds with one stone, after the foreigners appear, the grain truck will continue to drive towards Jiading. ”

"Humph!" Zhou Xiaoying snorted coldly and glared at Li Erhu fiercely, but Li Erhu had a lewd look in his eyes and smiled with a smug face.

'Huh? Another couple? Wang Feng's heart is unbalanced, these people are all first-class masters in terms of bubble girls, they are all stronger than themselves, except for that strong come, he never got Hong Xuanjiao to bed again, he couldn't help but look at Hong Xuanjiao resentfully, waved his hand and said: "Whether the grain truck is true or not, but its speed is slow, wait for the foreigners to be blown up, we have to work hard to catch up?"

From now on, don't get close, shoot with Minny, try not to kill if you can, Xiangyong is different from the green camp, they are all composed of people from the same village and the same clan, and it is easy to form a mortal enmity with the entire village if you make a mistake, which is not conducive to our occupation of southern Jiangsu. ”

"My subordinates understand!" Li Erhu clenched his fists violently, and was about to disperse with the Minnie spear team, but his eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "The foreigner is here!" ”

"Huh?" Everyone brushed and looked over, and about a mile or two behind the grain transport team, five or six hundred foreigners appeared, all wearing orange dazzling military uniforms, extremely dazzling, one of them was obviously a commander and waved his sword, and suddenly, the speed of foreigners increased sharply!

"This" Hong Xuanjiao puzzled: "Why did it come so quickly?" I thought that foreigners would only appear when we were entangled with Xiang Yong, and the ghost guy in red clothes and cockscomb hat did he understand the art of war? ”

Wang Feng was dissatisfied: "Sister Xuanjiao, aren't you happy that the enemy is stupid?" Okay, the foreigners are coming up, let's run! Then he gave Li Erhu a look.

Li Erhu shouted at the top of his voice: "It's not good, it's an ambush, the foreigners are shooting far away, let's not fight with the foreigners, brothers, retreat quickly!" ”

Two thousand Taiping troops, both men and women, did not fire a shot, and ran away as soon as they turned around, Meng Douban waved his sword again and again: "Chase, chase!" ”

Six hundred foreigners spread their legs and gave hot pursuit.

Although the sky is gradually dark, but the terrain of the Jiangnan water town is flat, not afraid of chasing and losing at all, and the foreigners are tall and long-legged, with beef and mutton as the staple food, they are indeed a little stronger than the Oriental in terms of running, after three or four miles, the distance between the two sides is almost close to the range of the Mini gun, and the anxious ones began to put the gun, and there are four or five miles ahead, which is the tributary of the Suzhou Creek.

In the running, the Taiping army always gathered the formation and fled along the dirt road, which was also one of the reasons why they were drawn closer by the foreigners, Wang Feng sometimes looked back, and sometimes looked down to look for road signs.

"Wang Feng, this is it!" Hong Xuanjiao suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed!

On the edge of the ridge, three pieces of rubble of different sizes were piled up into a character shape, which was a sign of agreement with Lu Da, Wang Feng immediately beckoned slightly, and took the lead in jumping down from the ridge and jumping into the paddy field next to it, and the soldiers also followed.

In May, the rice is in the transplanting and tillering period, there is a layer of shallow water in the field, stepping on it is deep and shallow, which affects the speed very much, Meng Douban suddenly laughed and said: "These yellow-skinned monkeys are as thin as hemp poles, they must not be able to run, soldiers, now is the time to show your marksmanship!" ”

In the eyes of foreigners, the Chinese are backward, ignorant, inferior creatures, and infidels, and they all rush over with a scream without any moral pressure to kill!

Because the Taiping army jumped off the paddy field and continued to run forward, and the transplanting and tillering period of rice needs to be fertilized frequently, from a distance, you can smell a smell of farmhouse fertilizer, the field is muddy, the foreigners are unwilling to go down, have pursued along the ridge, a large part of which went deep into the front of the pile of rubble.

Lu Dayou, who was shrunk into a ball under the ridge, had a cruel smile on his lips, and pulled the rope in his hand violently!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Starting from the pile of rocks, just like a relay, the mines exploded one after another, and in an instant, the flames soared into the sky, the gravel flew, and the foreigners were thrown into the air in pieces, and fell like dumplings, the scene was extremely spectacular!
