Chapter Seventy-Six: Militia Bandits vs Taiping Town
"Oh? If you can kill ten of my subordinates and rob the county mansion, then this person is a character! ”
The young man of this newspaper originally wanted to brush up on a wave of presence, and by the way, he gave Shi Chen a hatred value, but who knew that this Zhou Tianmin was purely a moody person, but he also appreciated it.
This made the young people of the newspaper dare not talk more.
Instead, Ah Gan nodded and agreed.
As Zhou Tianmin's old subordinate and a sharpshooter, he naturally didn't want to be afraid of Zhou Tianmin like an adjutant.
"Ah Gan, if you can be captured alive in a while, try not to kill him, that person, I want it!"
Zhou Tianmin glanced at A Gan, and then explained, if a character like Shi Chen receives his command, it will definitely be a big help!
With Ah Gan, a long-range sniper and a melee raid are definitely humanoid killers on the battlefield.
Ah Gan nodded again, then stepped aside, took a few bullets from the cartridge box, pulled the bolt of Mosinnagant's rifle, and pressed the bullets in.
Zhou Tianmin was not surprised, and waved his hand again, letting the whole team move forward.
On the other side, the people in Taiping Town did not slack off, and did not arrange more firepower points.
With the previous deployment, Meat Tu Zheng simply divided the villagers into three squads.
Shi Chen continued to lead the first squad, and since the number was the smallest, he assigned another twenty of the newly armed people to him.
The rest were merged into Meat Tu Zheng's second squad.
The third squad led by Zong Shen had the largest number of people, the latest charge, and the lowest losses, so there was no increase in numbers.
"Little brother Wencai, you take the brothers of the first team up the mountain to ambush, just go to the location where the bandit squad ambushed just now, don't shoot easily, and when the two cast iron cannons in the town are fired, you are on the move."
Meat Tu Zheng took a fancy to the position where the bandit squad was ambushed before, once it relied on the front, it would be an excellent ambush place, the terrain was high, and the main force on the front was delayed, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Shi Chen nodded, after the replenishment of personnel, he now has more than 30 village warriors under his command, and twenty of them are still armed with bandits, which is enough to play a great role.
Immediately afterwards, Meat Tu Zheng turned his head to Zong Shen and said.
"Lao Zong, you take the third team, first cooperate with my second team to fight, pay attention to the frequency of shooting, save ammunition, once you pull out the cast iron cannon, you will take twenty steps back and go to the second line of defense in advance!"
Zong Shen agreed.
Meat Tu Zheng's arrangement made Shi Chen a little impressed, and his tactical arrangement was quite flexible.
After the arrangement was completed, Shi Chen did not delay, summoned all the members of the first team, and drove towards the high place of the mountain forest on the right again.
And Zong Shen and the Xiangyong team of Meat Tu Zheng continued to rely on the frontal arc bunker, staring at the main road and guarding the gate of Taiping Town!
When everyone is in place.
The large army of militia bandits finally appeared in the field of vision of everyone.
They also saw Taiping Town in the distance, as soon as the queue stopped, Zhou Tianmin and several adjutants stopped in place, while dozens of militia bandits behind them put dozens of sandbags on their backs to form a temporary fortification, which became Zhou Tianmin's temporary commander's office.
About a company of troops was stationed here, armed with three light machine guns, to defend it to the death.
The rest of the militia bandits, under the command of their respective battalion commanders, dispersed into straggler formations, pounced on one piece, and gradually advanced towards the front.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was still relatively long, and neither of them entered the effective range.
On this side, the people in Taiping Town relied on their bunkers and prepared calmly, while the militia bandits on the other side were numerous and violent.
The smell of gunpowder on both sides is full.
And Shi Chen led the first team to lurk quietly in the mountains and forests on the right, patiently waiting for the roar of the cast iron cannon.
Soon, the militia bandits approached a position less than 500 meters away from the defense line of Taiping Town and began to shoot intermittently.
Shots at this distance should not be considered to hit at all, except for sharpshooters who are in excellent condition for their guns.
The shooting on both sides was like a joke, more of a deterrent.
And the sharpshooter Ah Gan was not on the front line at all.
The task given to him by Zhou Tianmin was to deal with Shi Chen, and at this time he ran back to the mountains and forests, not knowing where he was hiding.
As the distance drew closer, casualties began to appear on both sides.
The militia bandits relied on being more numerous, more experienced in combat, and more accurate in marksmanship.
On the Taiping side, it relied more on bunkers and fortifications that had been built in advance.
This time it was also evenly matched.
After exterminating a team of bandits before, after seeing the blood, the villagers of Taiping Town all radiated new courage, and the bandits who were once invincible to them did not seem to be so strong!
However, as time went on, the bandits gradually approached their positions, and the Taiping side began to suffer casualties more quickly.
The two sides are caught in an eerie balance.
Zhou Tianmin didn't care, the old god was sitting in the temporary command post, closing his eyes and recuperating.
Eventually, when the distance between the two sides was about 200 meters, the bandits took advantage of the terrain and scattered horses and obstacles to build a rudimentary fortification.
More than a dozen light machine guns were set up one after another, pouring fire on the fortifications of Taiping Town.
"Da Da Da!"
"Da Da Da!"
The guns are eye-catching and the bullet casings are flying, this style of play is simply extravagant in this era.
The firepower of the marksmanship pressed the Taiping Township villagers in the fortifications and couldn't lift it!
The sandbags erected in front of him were riddled with holes by light machine guns, and in terms of fire suppression, the militia bandits were more than a hundred times better than the brave townsmen of Taiping Town.
The rest of the bandits, taking advantage of the machine-gun suppression, made a detour to both sides, forming a large net and rushing towards the fortifications.
"Lao Zong! This doesn't work, the firepower is too strong, and the light machine gun is a way of suppressing firepower, it seems that they are bloody! ”
Meat Tu Zheng roared, the gunfire had completely suppressed his voice, and everyone's brains were buzzing.
"Let's cast iron cannons, fuck it, pay attention to defense on both sides!"
Zong Shen also yelled at Meat Tu Zheng, and then stretched out his hand and made a gesture to Xiang Yong, who was waiting behind him.
That township bravely got the order and ran out of the town, it's time for the two ancestor-level cannons to come out of the rivers and lakes again!
And the stragglers of the militia bandits, as the distance approached, some of them even began to throw grenades.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
A series of explosions sounded inside and outside the fortifications, and many villagers were directly knocked away by the impact of the explosion, and the sandbag defense was also blown open.
Under this round of grenades, Taiping Town let go of several people.
However, the villagers are not vegetarians.
Relying on the angle of the fortifications, avoiding the fire of the machine guns, shoot at the approaching bandits.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen bandits were hit and fell, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead
