242 Raid by mounted infantry

"Christian warriors, the glory of heaven guides you, as long as you rush to the Taiping soldiers who maintain order and detonate explosives, you can enter the heavenly world of eternal happiness, and at the same time, your children can also become the descendants of heroes and enjoy superior Christian benefits!"

In a secluded corner of a market town, a man in a gray hooded robe is making the final mobilization for a group of 'bloated' middle-aged men.

In the 17th century in Europe, more than 40 years old was equated with old age, and children in their thirties were basically adults.

On the one hand, heaven awaits them, and on the other hand, their children and families can be subsidized by the Christian Brotherhood, and these middle-aged white men who have only one rotten life left in their lives and feel that they have not many years to live have naturally become the best targets for suicide attacks.

The bewitched crowd nodded, because the outside was full of Taiping soldiers patrolling and suppressing, and instead of shouting Christian jihad slogans as before, they silently dispersed according to their prior explanations.

The whole market town is the main distribution center for the Taiping army and the survival of the refugees, and it is also the hardest hit area for those white refugees, and it is here that the elite musketeers of the Taiping army crush the crowds of refugees who have gathered, and now the streets are full of people who are frantically fleeing and being arrested.

The refugees in the market town were not wiped out, otherwise, the border area would really be left with only the Taiping army itself......

At that time, who would farm the land for the Taiping army and do coolies?

Besides, there are thousands of white refugees living around the market town, and with the strength of the Taiping Army, it is unrealistic to kill them all, and the refugees can't run away if they can't fight?

Therefore, the Taiping army was just an ordinary suppression of the riot, but the slaughter of the entire town.

In the huge market town, dozens or hundreds of middle-aged men with expressionless faces and slightly bloated bodies and linen robes walked out at some point.

Apparently, the Christian Brotherhood did a lot of preliminary work for this attack, and it took a long time to infiltrate the border to reach this scale.

Of course, the fact that the Christian Brotherhood's attack was so successful was inseparable from the fact that the Taiping army had committed too many murders.

The man in the robe and hood who led the preaching saw that the other parts of the martyrs had also set off, and his figure quickly disappeared into the depths of the corner, and he left this dangerous place with great familiarity.

Soon, these people who were the leaders of the preaching gathered together, away from the market town, and the riots in the market town and the slaughter of the brawling crowd distracted a lot of the Taiping army's energy, causing the cordon to be full of flaws, so it was easy for these people to get out of the way.

When a man in a gray robe and hood saw that he was safe, he asked the man in charge, "My lord, how will the children who have sacrificed their lives for Christianity be accommodated?" ”

"The descendants of heroes naturally want to be inspired to be heroes, and the children of these people will be warriors in the Christian Brotherhood who will inherit the hero's legacy, and the Brotherhood will provide them with a good battlefield to play their 'heroic bloodline'."

When everyone heard this, a chill suddenly rose in their hearts.

The word hero sounds very good, but the end of the hero is often not good, these people know best how they fool those 'heroes' to voluntarily tie explosives to their bodies, and naturally they know best the thoughts that the hearts of the simple poor people crave most.

Heaven was a major factor in their deaths, but most importantly, the poor who were dynamized thought that their death would save their children from the war and lead a happy and prosperous life.

It is a pity that under the religious and national righteousness, the children of heroes still have to go to the battlefield to shed their blood, and the sacrifice for the country is certainly lofty, but for individuals, it may only be an extension of one tragedy after another.

These people understand this truth in their hearts, but they do not hold a grudge against the Christian Brotherhood, the Taiping Army, an alien invader, must be driven out after all, otherwise they are all inferior slaves!

Naturally, fighting a war means death, and if they can fool others into suicide attacks in the name of heroes and martyrs, their chances of survival are naturally greater, according to the selfish logic of human nature, they even have to fool more poor people to take the initiative to die generously, only if the lives and blood of the people below are watered enough, they can promote victory more powerfully.

As long as they are victorious, no matter how many people die, they are the founding fathers!

This can be regarded as the helplessness of the little people, the beneficiaries of the war are always the big people above, and the civilians at the bottom need only two words - peace!

would rather be a peaceful dog than a chaotic person, 10 words express the cry in the hearts of the people.

It's a pity that the voice of the people will never become the mainstream, and the people in power will always have 10,000 reasons to reverse the idea of the people, and use all kinds of righteousness and ideology to make the people die generously.

There's no right or wrong here, it's just a difference in the position where the butt sits.

After the departure of several thoughtful Christian Brotherhood leaders, there was a rumbling explosion in the market town, these suicide attackers were covered in black powder, even if they were shot by lead bullets, they would detonate under the scorching sparks......

The terrain of the market town greatly exerted the advantages of suicide attackers, and the order that had just been pacified by the Taiping army fell back into chaos due to the suicide attacks everywhere, which caused the elite soldiers of the Taiping army to suffer heavy losses.

At the same time, the scouts of the Taiping army hurriedly brought the news of the overwhelming cavalry of the Christian Brotherhood to the Taiping commander......

In order to catch up with the civil strife in the Taiping army garrison as quickly as possible, the Christian Brotherhood scavenged a large number of horses, among which the destruction of the Holy Sword Knights contributed a lot, and the cavalry of the Christian Brotherhood was actually just a horse infantry, I have to say that Jobs was a genius, he learned the importance of rapid maneuver in war without anyone to teach!

Thousands of Brotherhood soldiers, who had been transported by various horses, quickly dismounted on the outskirts of the market town, and after a simple reorganization, rushed towards the chaotic market town.

All the refugees who were not their own people were cut down to the ground by the soldiers of the Christian Brotherhood, and after the Christian Brotherhood took advantage of these refugees who did not deal with them, they issued a total killing order like garbage!
