686 Raid (I)

There is no doubt that the goal of the barbarians is themselves. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Huang Taiji, this guy is really persistent enough in order to save face, and he vows not to give up if he doesn't get a "really short hair" head, so he doesn't hesitate to send these elite forces over and over again to act as dead soldiers to engage in sabotage and sneak attacks, and the elites of the Houjin soldiers are really so many? Don't care about consumption at all?

- Definitely elite, although these people in Pang Yu's eyes were all ragged and tangled, and they looked like savages. But their actions were resolute and resolute, and although they were running, they did not appear to be flustered at all, and they even had time to look around along the way—not absent-mindedly, but with the corner of their eyes observing any target that might pose a threat to them. For example, Pang Yu saw a Houjin soldier walking, suddenly squatting down with his legs apart, his posture was ugly, but the bow and arrow in his hand were raised high, which was the standard posture of pulling a strong bow with waist force in archery.

Before Pang Yu could figure out whether he should dodge or not, the bowstring had already shaken violently and shot the arrow, and then he heard a scream from the tree, and a secret sentry of the Qiong Navy who was originally hidden in the tree planted green shade. But he didn't fall - he was nailed to the trunk of a tree!

Pang Yu's face tried to keep calm, but a hint of horror flashed in his eyes - due to the cover of the jungle, this group of Houjin death squads were discovered when they were close to the range of bows and arrows, so the greatest range advantage of the Qionghai rifle was negated. Now both sides are within range of each other, and it seems that each other's weapons are lethal enough.

"Free fire! Don't worry about those workers, kill as many enemies as you can! ”

―― The order of the captain of the guard came from Pang Yu's side, and it seems that he is also a little panicked. The captain of the escort who served as the leader of the cooking squad also served as the deputy company commander, and participated in the Battle of Qiongzhou, the Dengzhou Counterinsurgency War, and the Battle of Lushunkou not long ago. But he still showed some panic at the moment - because this "veteran" himself was only in his twenties, and the entire Joan Navy was actually basically composed of these young people.

Although there have been many victories since the founding of the army, it is only because the opponent is too scumbag -- including the army of the Ming Dynasty, the various armed forces of the late Ming Dynasty are actually not regular armies by the standards of modern people. And the Qiong Navy itself is too young and too simple for the object of its efforts to imitate, it has never suffered a loss since its formation, and it is accustomed to fighting with the wind with advanced weapons, and it really needs to test the toughness, courage and endurance of an army, in fact, it has not experienced it a few times.

Even if it hits such a hurdle at the moment, it is only a small sudden battle in terms of scale, but the importance is not low - Pang Yu's identity is here. Those lumberjacks may only regard him as a master-like character in the short hair, and it is estimated that the person who will personally bring people out to work is not a big official, but just occupies the name of "real hair", and even those Houjin soldiers who came to attack probably think so. But the deputy company commander who was responsible for protecting him knew how heavy the responsibility was on his shoulders, and it was this huge sense of responsibility, as well as the pressure it brought, that made it difficult for this young man, who was usually quite brave and resolute, to maintain his normal heart at the moment--his psychological quality is not good, and it is estimated that this child will be the life of a battalion and company-level commander in the future.

"Chief of Staff, we're here to stand up, you take two people to withdraw first."

Seeing that the woods were faintly thick, and there were many fur-clad Houjin soldiers coming out, the captain of the guard couldn't help but make such a suggestion to Pang Yu. But the latter's overall view is much stronger than him, and he just smiled bitterly when he heard this:

"If you can't run, you can't race against those wild people in the woods, you have no chance of winning. Instead, it will only give the opponent more chances. Our only strategy is to stay on standby. ”

"But our troops are too small, and those workers can't be regarded as combat strength at all, and I'm afraid they won't be able to stop each other."

"How many men do you have left?"

"Fifteen...... A baker's dozen? ”

The captain of the guard hesitated to reply as he looked into the woods, at a secret post that had not responded since two gunshots, and at the second hapless man who had just been shot. Pang Yu nodded, and raised the imitation 54-style pistol in his hand - now he didn't dare to sit there with a big grin anymore and pose for a deep game, but like other soldiers, he honestly found a cover and lay behind him, and it was the stump from before.

"Well, with you and me, we still have fifteen more who can shoot, and I'm sure the other side definitely doesn't have more than thirty people, otherwise our observation post would have found out. So each of us only needs to shoot two shots - of course you have to be accurate, I'm not very good at shooting. ”

The captain of the guard obviously didn't understand Pang Yu's painstaking efforts to tell jokes and try to make him relax until this moment, and his brows were still tightened:

"Is there only thirty? You should be able to spell it out! Then I'll just lay it out. ”

As he spoke, he twisted and crawled down to pass the word, Pang Yu looked at his prostrate movement posture, and sighed softly - as the chief officer, he was so nervous, and his subordinates were not even more stressed? It's a pity that he can't directly command those low-level soldiers instead of him, otherwise the chaos of instructions caused will only make the situation worse.

Now we can only pray that this young commander can grow up quickly, get rid of negative emotions, and perform at a normal level, so that he can hold out in front of at least twice as many enemies - Pang Yu just said categorically that the other party could not exceed thirty, but he himself was not sure in his heart. The post-gold and white-armored soldiers of this period are not the Eight Banners masters of later generations, and they are quite able to endure hardships, in case they really have the ability to hide forty or fifty people in the forest, they will suffer a big loss this time.

After a slight delay, the front has already been handed over. The captain of the guard was indeed correct in his judgment - the lumberjacks who rushed to the front had already run head-on into several Houjin soldiers, but with courage and a sharp axe, they immediately showed a gap when they encountered the battle-hardened Houjin white armor soldiers. Their opponents didn't seem to be much stronger than them, and their knives were only a little faster and more accurate than a lumberjack's axe...... It was inserted into these workers first, and always - it was clear that the latter soldiers were far ahead of their opponents in terms of combat skills, and the gap between them was not bridged by courage or greed for money.

And the courage that was temporarily aroused always wears down quickly, so that, like all rabble, when the bravest of those who rushed to the front and showed the bravest were easily killed, the others immediately became timid. They hesitated, hesitating, not knowing whether to continue to rush forward, or to slow down and see what was going on.

Under normal circumstances, this situation occurs, as long as the other party impacts again, the next thing will definitely be to scatter birds and beasts. But this time, the Jin soldiers failed to carry out this tactic, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't - their main opponent was not the lumberjacks......

As a series of gunshots rang out, several lumberjacks were cutting coolly, and the Houjin soldiers, who didn't pay attention to the hidden figures, sprayed blood on their heads or bodies and fell down. However, those people in the back reacted immediately, and hid behind the trees, and no matter how much they fought, they would try to avoid the direction of the bullets, or let those lumberjacks block in front, in short, it was not so easy to be hit, and their flexibility was definitely the fastest response and the most timely armed personnel that Pang Yu had seen since they came to this era.

Of course, this dodge made it not so easy for the bows and arrows of the Houjin soldiers to work, at least it was impossible to stand still and calmly open the bow. The Houjin soldiers had to hide behind the trunk of a tree, pull the bowstring apart, mount the arrow, and then quickly dodge out and shoot an arrow at a promising target and immediately duck back, an action that usually draws two or three bullets for the shooter, which is an extreme sport on the tip of the knife. In such tight conditions, you can't expect much from the hit rate.

The two sides fired at each other for a while, and on the side of the Qiong Navy, although the rifle did not have the advantage of range, it was able to shoot in a variety of postures, and the lying and kneeling positions could effectively cover themselves, and these advantages still existed. But the opponent had a numerical advantage, and the rate of fire of the bow and arrow was not inferior to that of the rifle, at least for a short time. And what is worse is that their desire to attack is quite strong, and they are not like the enemies that Joan's navy has encountered before, often find a shelter under rifle fire and stop moving, and cower and hide there without advancing.

These post-gold raiders find every opportunity to approach their opponents on any given foot: a tree, a rock, or even a lumberjack who is attacking them will become a springboard and shelter for them to approach forward. And they also cooperate with each other quite tacitly, often several people dodge out at the same time to shoot arrows as cover, and the other people take the opportunity to leap forward a few steps, and then they cross and swap roles, each of their soldiers seems to have good archery and melee ability!

Of course, it was impossible to be unscathed in the process, and at least ten people on the Houjin side were knocked down on the offensive road. But Pang Yu also paid the price of three people. The arrow shafts used by those Houjin soldiers were thick and long, although they did not reach the level that Pang Yu and others had heard from Ming Dynasty officials that they could shoot arrows into the city wall as ladders. But it is unlikely that you will be able to maintain your combat effectiveness after receiving an arrow, and even if you don't die on the spot, at least you will be seriously injured.
