Chapter 109: Field 2

It is recognized that the Jin Army's combat strength is fierce and invincible in the field, but even if the warriors of the Jin Army are brave and not afraid of death, they are flesh and blood after all, and their courage is so pale in the face of the hell of death built by the rain of bullets.

The speed of the war horse's full sprint was very fast, but the distance between it and the Shenji Battalion phalanx was like an insurmountable moat, but no matter how brave the warriors were, how desperately they charged, they could not rush to the defensive phalanx of the Shenji Battalion.

Bang bang bang –

The deafening gunfire continued to explode, mixed with the mournful neighing of the war horses, the terrible screams of the soldiers after being shot, and the painful cries for help.

As more and more fallen horses and soldiers fell, they were lying on the ground, and they also became obstacles blocking their companions behind, and the Jin Army warriors who were charging behind had to slow down their charge, bypass the obstacles all over the ground, and re-charge.

It is precisely because of this circumference that the speed of the war horse sprint slower, and it allows the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion to calmly load ammunition, calmly shift, and shoot calmly, although they have just experienced a city defense battle before, but after all, they are rookies who have just entered the battlefield, and the invincibility of the Jin Army in the field is spreading, it is a lie to say that they are not nervous.

However, after a few rounds of guns, the tension in my heart gradually weakened and disappeared, and the feeling became smoother and smoother, and finally returned to the level of the usual training, and the guns were playing more and more slippery, and the table tennis was more and more joyful than the firecrackers during the New Year, and the rate of fire was also increased, which was a greater disaster for the Jin Army.

This battle is not so much a battle as a one-sided massacre, and the cold-armed archery and machete face the musket that has been fully advantaged, it is a completely unequal battle, and there is only the share of being knocked to the ground and beaten violently.

After paying a lot of casualties, they once braved the rain of bullets and rushed to a distance of nearly ten meters, and the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion used grenades to greet the guests who could not come from them, and the two waves of grenades blew the Jin army on their backs, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, and it was so miserable that it was indescribable.

No matter how brave and fearless a person is, after witnessing N many companions and brothers struggling and howling in a pool of blood, their courage will be low, not to mention how many people are really not afraid of death?

After paying the heavy price of casualties, the Jin army, whose morale had fallen to freezing point, did not wait for the commander to give the signal to retreat, and had scrambled to turn around and run, and soon disappeared at the end of the horizon.

"Roar, victory, roar, victory."

All the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion burst out with a roar of victory, and Zhou Zhen and the others who were standing on the top of the city watching the battle couldn't help but cheer with their arms, and they were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

Li Xin did not order the pursuit, the Jin army was mostly cavalry, how could two legs catch up with four legs, he just ordered one phalanx to go out to defend, and the soldiers of the other two phalanxes cleaned up the battlefield, and the soldiers and civilians in the city poured out to help collect the spoils of war and bury the corpses to avoid the outbreak of the plague.

This is an era when science and technology and medical technology are backward, and the common cold may not be cured and people die, not to mention injuries, most of them are inflamed and hung up, and those who can survive are super lucky, Xiaoqiang, who has a few lives, but also basically disabled.

Zhu Jian is a stingy emperor who fell into the eyes of money, and he will never do anything that is not beneficial, and he wants him to pay for medicine to treat those injured Jin soldiers, and raise them for nothing, it is easier to climb into the sky and pick stars, so there is one of his orders to Lu Hongniang and others, do not accept seriously injured prisoners, minor injuries can be cured, and it is okay to be so-so who can be used as free labor, of course, it costs some money to flirt with sisters, and a little wealth is not included.

The Jin soldiers who were lying on the mud and struggling and screaming were either injured by the gun, or they were thrown or pressed by the war horse, the unlucky neck was broken and hung up, and the lucky hands and feet were broken, anyway, they were all waste of money and medicinal materials in Zhu Jian's eyes, and they couldn't do much work, and of course the waste had to be disposed of.

In the end, only a dozen or so prisoners of the lightly wounded who were well treated and would not be crippled were identified, and the others were all among the seriously wounded who could not be saved, and were mercilessly disposed of by the soldiers.

In this battle, more than 1,600 Jin soldiers were killed, more than 10 people were captured, and more than 20 people were wounded, all of whom were slightly wounded who could be cured and returned.

A lot of swords and armor were confiscated, and the muskets and artillery of the Shenji Battalion were all useless, Li Xin waved his hand and gave them to Zhou Zhen very generously, making Zhou Zhen grateful.

There were more than 1,000 wounded or dead horses, and the soldiers and civilians of the whole city enjoyed a very rich horse meat feast, which made the poor people grateful.

The same thing happened at Longjing Pass, where Lu Hongniang discovered the abnormality of the Jin army in the defensive battle at the head of the city, and also risked leading the army out of the city to fight a field battle with the Jin army like Li Xin, and the commander of the Jin army also wanted to make war merits and turned the feint attack into a strong attack.

Lu Hongniang's Phoenix Legion is equipped with nearly 1,000 rear-loading pistols, the rate of fire is nearly twice as fast as the front-loading Lu Mi Gong, and the soldiers' rows of guns and ping-pong are put happily and intensively, making people have a kind of gunfire and bullets, a steady stream of illusions, if the Jin soldiers of Da'ankou were pressed to the ground and beaten violently by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, the Jin soldiers of Longjing Pass were trampled under the feet of the Phoenix Legion, and the casualties were more, with more than 2,000 heads.

It stands to reason that women's hearts are softer than men's, and they should be more gentle in dealing with prisoners, but Lu Hongniang is Zhu Jian's pillow person, and she is often brainwashed by him, and she hates Jin Jun who committed crimes against me, burns, kills, loots, and does all kinds of evil, and is much more ruthless than Li Xin when dealing with prisoners.

Colonel Zhou Yuji stepped forward at a critical moment, bought valuable time for the Phoenix Legion's aid, and was appointed by Lu Hongniang as the acting general of Longjing Pass, in charge of the defense of Longjing Pass.

Zhou Yuji is also a cattle man in the late Ming Dynasty, beat Li Zicheng, kicked Zhang Xianzhong and other famous rebel generals, with less defeat, creating a rare example of winning more with less in the history of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is definitely called a brave and resourceful loyal and brave general, and the original history is slightly deviated from the fact that he did not know how to mix a small school in Longjing Pass, and now he has risen in advance, appeared in Zhu Jian's field of vision, and also entered the cattle genealogy he recorded.

In the woods on the side of the official road north of Hongshankou, Cao Bianjiao climbed on a big tree, holding the trunk with one hand and observing the front with a monocular in the other.
