Chapter Three: Yongzhen Guangxi (22)

At this moment, thousands of people are in front and thousands of people are behind, and the side that spews out iron sand and gravel is basically impossible to survive, it is just a vacancy deliberately left by the people who set up an ambush. However, at this time, Ding Yi, who was a little drunk, suddenly opened his eyes and said coldly to Wen Fatzi: "Destroy the firearm and break out!" ”

Wen Fatzi didn't hesitate to play any tricks of persuasion at this moment, but replied in a deep voice: "Yes!" Horseback platoon! Launched! Kill the thief! Thirty-six horsemen jogged over from the edge of the pond on the side, and gradually accelerated, and more than a hundred rebels rode up to meet them, they were all old men in the rebels, and their eyes were vicious enough, and they wanted to take advantage of the fact that the fat man did not mention their speed, and directly annihilate them. Because seeing that this group of cavalry did not rush forward or backward, and came to the side of the pond, it was obvious that there was a foundation, not an infantry on horseback, and the road should be accelerated first, and then interspersed with divisions, and the cavalry in those righteous armies would naturally not sit idly by.

But when the first dozen horsemen rushed up, they were pulled out of the revolver by Wen Fatzi, and pulled the trigger again and again on the horse, and none of them fell short on the spot, knocking down the six horsemen, he all shot at the horse, and the cavalry behind him also did the same, and for a time the gunfire rang out, and he knocked down thirty or fifty horsemen at once.

At this time, Wen Fatzi and their horse speed also came up, put away the pistol and drew the saber, and silently plunged straight into the conical formation, these thirty or so horsemen were all wearing three layers of armor, and the righteous swords and guns could not be dragged to the bloody mouth, plus half of them were border troops, and half of them were also the best trained by Mongolian instructors like Jeddah, where are the half-hung cavalry of the righteous army can be compared? A photo. The sword was light, and he was immediately beheaded thirty or forty and rode down.

Those rebels still had two or three hundred cavalry, but in this blink of an eye, the brothers in front of them fell one by one. It's nearly a hundred rides in a moment, where can I support it? Wen Fatzi They were like knives cutting mud, just rushed over, and many stumps and broken arms flew along the way, blood, intestines, skin and flesh flew in the air, and for a while, the bloody road that was killed. As in the Shura field, the rest of the rebel cavalry was so frightened that they pulled out their horses and ran. He only shouted, "Foot soldiers, come up and hold on!" ”

Where did the leader of the foot soldiers dare to go up? The dense spear formation can indeed restrain the cavalry, but even the men and horses plus the weight of the armor ton remains, this is the tank-style heavy cavalry of the cold weapon era, and the dense spear formation must be listed in front of the heavy cavalry. That requires extremely good discipline and fighting spirit.

The fighting spirit of the rebels is there. There is really no discipline in this, sparse Lala released a round of arrows, none of the thirty-six horsemen led by the fat man fell, and the foot soldiers took the initiative to retreat, what they were good at was guerrilla warfare, mountain guerrilla warfare, and asked them to carry heavy horses, how could they do it?

"Liu Tie! Hold your ground! Ding Yi roared loudly. He took out two revolches and slowly walked towards the hundreds of rebels who had cut off the back road in the northwest. "Pistol platoon, follow me!" Thirty-four pistol platoon soldiers armed with revolvers, followed Ding Yi, with a straggler line of ten battle groups, pounced on the hundreds of rebels who had just been repelled by the third platoon three times.

As soon as Ding crossed the defense line of the third platoon, he accurately shot the head of a small leader of the rebels twenty meters away with one shot, and shouted: "The great head is here, who will take it?" He kept pulling the trigger with both hands, facing the dense charging formation of the rebels, he would not miss the shot without aiming, and almost within a minute, he carried the pistol platoon and killed the hundreds of rebels back hundreds of meters.

"Pistol platoon, retreat to the line! Wu Dugan, follow me! Ding Yi put away the two revolvers, took out the Damascus scimitar and the Bailian Qiushui Yanling knife from his back waist, and said with a long smile, "If you don't kill people for a long time, a certain long knife will be hungry and thirsty for a long time!" Hahaha! As he spoke, a knife swept up from the bottom to the top, and the rebels who passed by were directly cut to the ground.

Originally, the wounds in the first platoon, as well as the dense enemy troops, made many soldiers of the guard company cowardly, and the reason why they did not break up was just one password after another, making them habitually repeat the actions they had trained thousands of times in peacetime.

But at this time, Ding Yi's long wind was flying, and he walked with a knife, shouting out words like "long knife hunger and thirst", I have to say that this is the soul of the soldier in the era of cold weapons, which made the soldiers of the guard company finally begin to calm down. Ding Yi killed fourteen people in a row, and the hundreds of rebels were brought down by him with a pistol platoon, and hundreds of people were already devastated, and at this time, seeing that he came with a knife and was so ferocious, he was really frightened and retreated two or three hundred meters, Zheng Ang even beheaded seven or eight people, and only then did he stabilize his position.

Ding Yi stood proudly with a sword, but no righteous army dared to come forward, Ding Yi sneered: "Not happy! You wait for the army to regroup, the line is ready, and then come up and let someone kill! Saying that, he slowly retreated, and none of the rebels dared to come forward in pursuit, but there was a rebel with conceited archery skills, riding a horse and rushing to a distance of about thirty paces from Ding Yi to bend the bow, and before he could pull the bow to the full string, the six students in the third row, equipped with front-loading steel rifled rifles, had already taken off their guns, lay down on the ground and aimed and fired.

Although it is only a rifling, not the spiral rifling and rear-loading rifle in Ding Junyue's hand, and it is also inserted into the gunpowder pool to cover copper thunder * mercury, but after all, it is a nitro * projectile, and it is usually good at archery, 60 meters, three out of six shots hit the horse, and two shots hit the person. As a result, the archer snorted, and two bloody arrows flew out of his chest, and even the man and the horse fell down like this, and there was no more breath.

Ding Yi retreated into the defense line with a long smile, reloaded the bullets, and wanted to lead the pistol platoon and rush to the southeast again, but who knew that Liu Tie led the second row, more than 30 revolvers, and hit three rounds, but he also beat the rebels who were blocking the way back and did not dare to charge again for a while.

The ambusher and the ambushed stopped, killing each other.

"Ding Rongcheng is stubborn." Zheng Ang sneered and said to the leader of the four hundred heroes around him, "Don't worry, his Five Thunder Fa, it seems that he can't use it if he wants to, don't listen to him, let the brothers put the team in order, and after coming twice like this, he will just take the skin!" When the time comes, if you lead another 400 strong men to kill, it will be difficult for him not to die. ”

Zheng Ang's judgment was not wrong, although on the northwest side, under the counter-charge of three rounds of grenade throwing and pistol platoon, he had broken more than 200 rebels; More than 100 people were folded in the southeast; On the south side, the cavalry platoon of Wen Fatzi was forced to break out, not only destroying those handles, but also killing more than 100 cavalry and dozens of foot soldiers, but he did not panic at all, indeed he was one step closer to victory, a big step.

The battle damage of five or six hundred people seems to be very different compared to Ding Yi's side, but in fact, not only does he have 400 strong earth hole cards that have not moved, but also a reserve team of 500 people has not yet been put into the battlefield. The reason why the team is formed is because if the team is not formed, the remaining rebel soldiers are likely to be unable to bear the casualties and collapse.

"Count the number of people!" Liu Tie gasped and gave the order, and he had to shout loudly because the drummer had died in the rain of covered arrows on the other side. The first platoon, which was fired by dozens of handles, suffered the largest battle damage, and two of the seven people who were alive just died of excessive blood loss, and the other five were rescued by the medical soldiers, which was considered to be temporarily hanging for their lives, but it was very unrealistic to expect them to fight, and they were all wounded in more than ten places, and it was a miracle to survive.

In the third platoon, eleven people were slightly injured, five were seriously injured, and two died; In the second platoon, seven people were slightly injured, two were seriously injured, and one died; The cavalry platoon went out and did not come back, and the casualties were unclear, but it was equivalent to withdrawing from the battle sequence; The pistol platoon had zero combat damage, there were no casualties at all.

In this round, thirty-two people died and twelve were seriously wounded; Another cavalry platoon was out of the combat sequence.

The reinforced company, which originally consisted of 170 men in five platoons, now has only more than 90 people still fighting, and there are nearly 20 or so lightly wounded among them. Another round like this, and even if the guard company did not collapse, it would have died. How do you keep going like this? Liu Tie couldn't help but ask Ding Yi in a low voice: "Sir, how long can we, how long can we hold on?" ”

Ding Yi didn't answer him, he was just busy loading the bullets of the revolver, he was very hesitant to build this batch of revolvers, not only the cost of the cartridge shells, but he could still bear thousands of bullets. And because the revolver itself is not a very ideal field weapon, with poor breath-holding, small bullet capacity, slow reloading, and low rate of fire, not everyone can use the cowboy gun drawing technique like Ding Yi, and even if Ding Yi does, it is impossible to use the cowboy gun drawing technique every time he fires.

At that time, the first revolver in his hand was just a backup insurance for self-defense. Later, Wen Fatzi and Ding Junyue were so greedy that they built more than a dozen, and then went to Huaiji, Du Ziteng proposed that if there were a hundred revolvers at that time, there would be no need to send thousands of people to surround and annihilate Hou Dagou's army, maybe just a company of ambushes, you can hit the other party hard and make it collapse; And Ding Junyue strongly asked the guard troops to equip the revolver, and said that Liu Yiyi and Xu Hui were moved to push it together. At that time, Ding Yi thought that he had just been removed from his post as governor of Guangxi and was confined in Huaiji, and in the spirit of being idle and idle, he came up with more than 100 and 200 guns.

"I didn't expect it to be used today." Ding Yi laughed to himself, but said to the soldiers in the pistol platoon, "Go and take off the bullets and grenades from the dead brothers." In addition to him and Liu Tie, the soldiers of the pistol platoon were only equipped with sixty bullets, while the other platoons were only thirty rounds, and now it seems that if there were no revolvers, they might be about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and it would be impossible to stop thousands of people with a hundred rifles.

Liu Tie repeated his question again at this time, Ding Yi still didn't answer him, but Wu Dugan said, "Chen San won't ask Na Yan such a thing." Then with bloodthirsty excitement, she followed behind Ding Yi and left Liu Tie with a sad face there. (To be continued......)
