At this moment.

looked at these officers and soldiers in front of him who were holding weapons one by one and were vicious.

Zhang Huangyan realized that this was not a martial arts exercise in Huai'an, this was a real actual battle, and it was to kill people or be killed.

He was just a scholar himself, and he instinctively wanted to retreat, even though he was quite skilled in martial arts, and even extremely strong in archery.

But after all, it was the first time to kill someone, and Zhang Huangyan was not as good as Chen Mingyu, so he forgot to load ammunition and forgot to command.

"Don't move!"

Zhang Huangyan instinctively raised his rifle, but forgot to put on the bayonet and shouted loudly to strengthen his courage.

And a group of people behind him also shouted after him: "Don't move!" ”

Zhang Huangyan, who was a little flustered, forgot the content of infantry training, but he also knew that as a thousand households, he had to stand at the forefront, and he had to remain calm enough.

After pulling the trigger again and seeing that there was no smoke coming out, Zhang Huangyan realized that he had not done anything, and when he saw this, he simply pulled out his bow and arrow.

Then, Zhang Huangyan shot an arrow directly at the hat and helmet of a Ying Tianwei officer, and the arrow feather just hit this person's helmet.

Bang!

The officers and soldiers of the guards who followed Zhang Huangyan couldn't help but sigh secretly for Zhang Huangyan's miraculous marksmanship, and their confidence increased for a while.

But at this time, the officers and soldiers of Ying Tianwei who confronted Zhang Huangyan and others were first frightened, and after Zhang Huangyan shot an arrow calmly, these Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers in front of him actually knelt down first.

Instead of realizing that Zhang Huangyan did not reload the firearms with ammunition and immediately counterattacked, it can be seen how negligent the training of these Ying Tianwei rebel officers and soldiers was.

The leading Qianhu even kowtowed directly: "Spare your life, this general spare your life!" ”

Zhang Huangyan realized that he had come here to carry out the order of purging, so he decisively pulled out his bayonet, stabbed at the thousand households, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

Suddenly, blood rushed out.

As soon as he saw the blood, Zhang Huangyan suddenly didn't seem to have any fear, and turned around and stabbed another Ying Tianwei officer.

Seeing this, the other guards officers and soldiers immediately became bloody, and hurriedly drew their swords and slashed at these Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers.

And the Chongzhen 14-style rifle in their hands, which can be used for continuous medicine, is extremely convenient to operate, and can even be used directly as a spear, has become a burning stick.

Coincidentally.

Like Zhang Huangyan, most of the officers and men of the Guards who participated in this clean-up mission forgot the main combat content of their usual training, that is, rifle assassination and shooting training, and instead used the content of their peacetime auxiliary training, that is, slashing and fighting.

Fortunately, the officers and soldiers of Ying Tianwei are all domestic slaves of the Huaining Marquis Mansion who are more afraid of death, not the family members of the border generals, so they are very greedy for life and afraid of death.

Otherwise, if they really worked hard, the officers and men of the Guards would not necessarily be able to take advantage, at least they would not have given full play to their advantages.

At this time, Jiao Lian arranged several other thousand-strong teams to surround the barracks and shoot those who fled in the chaos.

And it just so happened that at this time, there were indeed a few Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to climb the wall and escaped, and the officers and soldiers in charge of the encirclement were at a loss and pulled out their swords to chase after them.

"Bastard bastards, have they forgotten that thing they have in their hands?"

Jiao Lian said angrily, and he first picked up the Chongzhen 14-style flintlock pistol and fired a few shots at several Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers who escaped.

Only then did the officers and men of the guards realize that they had better muskets on their bodies, so they hurriedly began to bite through the paper shells, pour the medicine, and half-squatted on the ground to fire dense white smoke and gunpowder at the Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers who climbed the wall.

In an instant, all the officers and soldiers of Ying Tianwei who escaped were slaughtered!

Zhang Huangyan, who was still chasing and hunting in Ying Tianwei's barracks, also realized his previous mistake at this time, and while shouting and shooting, he personally aimed at the fleeing Ying Tianwei officers and soldiers to massacre.

Ying Tianwei's 3,000 cavalry fled throughout the camp like chickens and ducks in captivity, completely unaware of resistance, which was equivalent to serving as a live target for the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 2nd Guards Army, making the officers and men of the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 2nd Guards Army more and more enjoyable, without any pressure at all.

More than a dozen people knelt in front of Chen Mingyu, hoping that Chen Mingyu would bypass his life, and said that he was from the Huaining Marquis Mansion.

But because Shangfeng's order is to kill them all.

Therefore, Chen Mingyu closed his eyes and picked up a bayonet to assassinate these Huaining Hou Sun Weicheng's people one by one on the spot.

In less than an hour, all the more than 3,000 officers and soldiers of Ying Tianwei were wiped out by the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the Guards.

Jiao Lian, who was a guerrilla in the battalion, walked in, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, the people above may have mistaken the information, and really thought that Ying Tianwei's cavalry was so good and loyal to Sun Weicheng, and ordered not to leave a living mouth, but he would not have thought that in fact, it was just a group of mediocre soldiers who were also afraid of death.

Despite this, Jiao Lian, who adheres to the military discipline of strictly implementing the orders of his superiors, still asked at the end: "Let's see if there is any alive, and if there are any, make up for it!" If you let one go, it will be a failure of this combat mission! ”

After it was finally confirmed that there was no survivor, Jiao Lian returned to the garrison with the 3rd Infantry Battalion.

This time, the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 2nd Army returned a little more cold-blooded than when they first came, and they also regained some sense, knowing that killing people is not a casual thing, so they are much more silent than before.

After returning to the station, Jiao Lian reprimanded these officers and soldiers fiercely for this matter: "Do you think that if you have successfully killed 3,000 people, you really think that you are very powerful and a strong army in the world?" Many of you are from Xiucai, more noble than me Jiao Lian, Wenqu Xing, and the smartest people, but in my opinion, you are just a group of dumber guys than pigs, what do you use the muskets in your hands, at that time, I taught you how to line up to shoot, how to assassinate, you are good, changed to full martial arts! ”

Zhang Huangyan couldn't help but lower his head, although it is indeed much easier to kill with a knife than to shoot and kill with medicine, but it is left in the case that the other party does not resist, if the other party is the same strong combat force, even if his side can win, there will be a lot of casualties, naturally it is better to concentrate on using firepower to attack and wait for the enemy to approach and use faster and more lethal assassination skills.

"Remember, Your Majesty has already said that our Guards, especially the first three armies, will deal with the Tartars in the future, and the Tartars' horse skills and individual combat are above us, and their physique is also above us, and most of them are brave and ruthless, and if we only fight with them with swords, we will definitely suffer a loss, firearms are our best weapons, use him well, you can easily solve an old cavalry who has been fighting for several years, remember!"

Jiao Lian roared.

"Remember!" The officers and men of the 3rd Infantry Battalion shouted in unison.

"Next, train for half an hour of assassination and half an hour of shooting every day, and when you fight Tartars in the future, don't embarrass me again!"

Jiao Lian said.
