In the early summer of 134o, a battle began three kilometers northeast of the county seat of Hexian. A thousand households surnamed Zhang led by the officers and soldiers of the county town originally planned to let the officers and soldiers go to Xiaohuangzhou to suppress bandits in half a month, the purpose of which was to have a relationship with several big families in the county, but they did not expect that the thieves in Xiaohuangzhou were so rampant, and they actually took the initiative to leave the island and persecute the gentlemen. When he first received the report, the county magistrate still felt that it was an exaggeration from his subordinates and dismissed it. Later, when he heard the people in the county town spreading the word everywhere, Chen Xianling sighed that these people were so bold that they dared to be so rampant, Chen Xianling was a little happy in his heart, thinking that the big families in the city must be flustered at this time, and Chen Xianling was ready to slaughter them fiercely. A few days later, when Chen Xianling heard that Cheng Pan's thieves had gathered thousands, he was anxious. Hurriedly closed the city gate to defend it to the death, and at the same time sent people to urge Bart to send troops, and at this time Bart also panicked, he lived in the county seat, in case the mob broke the county seat, he would definitely not end well. And so it was delayed for another two days. Later, after exploring the treasure, there were only 100 people in Xiaohuangzhou, and the rest were rabble, so Chen County Commander released the news of the official army suppressing the bandits, and sure enough, the thieves were defeated in one day. Everyone sighed that Chen County's order was extremely resourceful, so the officers and soldiers who had been put together according to the original plan finally appeared.
It is said that Zhang Qianhu and Zhang Hongfan have some kinship, although most of his team are Han, but most of the officers are Mongols and Semu. Zhang Qianhu often does not call these people. Fortunately, he couldn't get entangled for a while, and as soon as he got out of the city, he met a thief.
Cheng Pan saw the crowd on the opposite side, most of them were infantry, and there were also ten people riding high-headed horses, but Nafu's figure and gorgeous clothes were definitely not the front-line soldiers who charged. Cheng Pan was a little stunned, this was not at the same level as the cavalry that beat him into a dead dog a few months ago.
Cheng Pan breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "Two rows of queues" The village guard team immediately formed a two-row line of 100 meters long, facing a group of officers and soldiers in front. In Cheng Pan's drill, two rows are against the infantry, and the third row is against the cavalry.
When the people on the other side saw this group of people with spears lined up, they knew that they had met the main one. Zhang Qianhu has read some books and has some insight and said, "This gang of thieves, I don't know where to learn the art of array, but they learn so nondescript, the team stands so thin, loose, and the weapons in their hands are not long enough, I heard that the commander of Xiao Huangzhou is a showman, this showman thinks that he can lead the troops after reading a few military books, it's a joke." One of the Mongols next to him said, "Let me wait a round to destroy them."
Zhang Qianhu said: "Then everyone, let's rush together to crush them with the momentum of Mount Tai."
After a while, Cheng Pan saw the opposite side rushing over, and ordered, "All reload." All the personal protection village teams reload the ammunition in a multi-pronged exercise.
"First row crouch aiming". Cheng Pan then gave the order. It seems that there is a little worry and there is another sentence: "Everyone will fire after hearing my order, and if anyone dares to shoot indiscriminately, military law will serve." Fortunately, the hundred people brought by Cheng Pan have all gone through a fierce battle with the water bandits, and their psychological qualities are all qualified. No one fired in advance.
When Cheng Pan saw the person on the other side, he rushed to a place fifty meters away from him and excitedly shouted "fire".
A neat and loud voice appeared in the wilderness, and the hot weapon made a strong voice across the ages in this era. This is the first salvo of humanity on the battlefield in this space-time. , fifty barrels of guns lit up in a neat light, and then two meters of white smoke erupted from the muzzle. Fifty buckshot spun at a degree invisible to the naked eye, and rushed in a straight line towards the opposite side. Buckshot loaded with human bodies after 5 seconds of flight, due to the different softness and hardness of the human body, the lead bullet rolled and stirred in the human body, denatured, completely released the powerful kinetic energy, leaving bones and muscle fragments in the human body.
The opposite side suddenly stopped charging after this volley, as if encountering a strong gust of wind, and the thirty people in the front fell back en masse, and the rest stopped by themselves. On the one hand, they were intimidated by the strong sound and light effect of Cheng Pan's team, and on the other hand, the people who charged in front of them didn't know how swollen, and they were knocked down before they could do it with real swords and guns, and people were always cowardly in the face of unknown dangers.
Zhang Qianhu and several other officers had never encountered such a situation, and after a few seconds he suddenly remembered something and shouted loudly, "It's a firearm, and the other side is a assault rifle."
Before the words fell, another column of fire flickered on the opposite side, and another thirty or so people on his own side fell, and a second loud bang was heard after a few tenths of a second.
After the first platoon, Cheng Pan felt that his expected battle plan was too conservative. So he decided to take the initiative
So he shouted "Shoot as you advance, the second row comes forward"
In this way, after each volley of rows, the other row went to the front row and aimed in, gradually advancing. In fact, he didn't advance much, and the opposite side began to collapse after 5 rounds of blows, and Zhang Qianhu originally shouted a few words like it was useless to rush to the front and assault the rifle. But after the oppressive advance of the rows of firelight, who believed his nonsense. It was early summer, the wind was southeasterly, and the direction of the wind was parallel to that of the village guards, and the fog of war from the muskets quickly dissipated, and the effect on aiming did not last long. When Cheng Pan appeared, the person opposite had already begun to escape, and he also ordered to be closed.
At this time, more than 300 young people who were watching the battle in the rear and were ready to flee at any time saw such a terrifying result. They all looked at the village guards with awe.
Cheng Pan began to gather the team, and at this time, another squad leader, Wang Tao, asked Cheng Pan, "Report to the chief, why don't we pursue it." ”
The team members next to him were also eager to try, Cheng Pan said: "It's enough to fight to this point, we have shown our strength, and then we will go forward to the county seat, and if we press forward step by step, the army of the imperial court will come, and now our task is to establish order in the places we have taken." ”
After listening to Cheng Pan's statement of the powerful relationship. The people of the village guard team calmed down. Began to organize the youth in the back to clean up the battlefield.
After the raiding team returned to the county seat, Chen Xianling and Bart broke out in a cold sweat. Barter asked for help on the spot by sending someone to the Huaibei Wanhu Institute, but was stopped by Chen County's order, asking for help? The county seat has not been lost, so I asked for help. Chen Xianling persuaded Barth to wait and see. So once again, the gates were closed and the spies were released. The results of the investigation made Chen County Ling bittersweet, the thieves in Xiaohuangzhou did not enter the county seat, but they did not leave Jiangbei, and were gathering people in various villages outside the county.
In the evening, Chen Xianling returned to his study depressedly. At this time, a young man appeared in the study.
Chen Xianling shouted: "Who are you and why are you in my study." This young man is of course our Cheng Shaoxia, and the four-meter-high small city wall is like walking on the ground for him.
Cheng Pan said: "In the next Cheng Pan, it is the commander of Xiaohuangzhou."
Chen Xianling didn't believe how Cheng Pan entered the city and laughed and was about to refute, when his laughter broke like a duck with his neck choked. He looked at Cheng Pan with wide eyes
I saw Cheng Pan's right palm glowing with golden light, and when it was pressed to the solid wood table, bursts of green smoke came out. Cheng Pan put away the exercises, the brilliance in his hands disappeared, Cheng Pan looked at Chen Xianling with a shocked face and said: "A little trick, don't be surprised by the county master, I can take your study or even the city with the city gate closed." Chen Xianling said in a hoarse voice: "What is the reason why the hero comes to visit late at night." Cheng Pan smiled and said: "There are some conflicts with people from the county during the day, Cheng Pan is here to make amends to you" With a wave of his right hand, a pile of silver appeared on the table. Chen Xianling was taken aback by the sudden appearance of silver, but he didn't ask much. Cheng Pan said: "I have never visited the county master before, and I will make up for it today, and I will pay a thousand taels of silver every year in the future." Chen Xian Ling was relieved and then said politely: "Master Cheng Zhuang is polite, today is a pure misunderstanding, misunderstanding, hehe." Cheng Pan stared at Chen County's eyes, and Chen County's order stared at him with a hairy heart. Cheng Pan said: "Today's incident is either a misunderstanding, or some people in the county want to hit my attention, I know." Chen Xianling smiled wryly. Cheng Pan continued: "So if someone wants to take away my property, I will raid their home" Chen Xianling said: "This, this is not very good." Cheng Pan replied: "What's not good, we are originally bandits."
Chen Xianling was choked in his throat when he heard this, and his mouth was half open. Cheng Pan said to himself: "But we know the rules, the land we grabbed should be taxed to the imperial court, and we will still pay it." Twenty catties per mu" Chen Xianling said at this time: "This subordinate has no opinion, it's just that Bart in the county was sent by the imperial court" Cheng Pan interrupted Chen Xianling's words and said, "Don't worry, Bart will die in the center tonight" Chen Xianling felt a chill in his heart and didn't say anything again.
After coming out of the county commander's house, Cheng Pan sneaked into Barth's house, which is the most luxurious house in the county.
Cheng Pan broke the blood vessels in his brain in his sleep. No trauma is visible on the outside.
In this way, Cheng Pan controlled all the land in the southeastern half of the county except for the county seat.
In August, he sent troops to occupy the land in the north of Dangtu County, three kilometers from the river, and shot dozens of people to death in Dangtu's county government, Cheng Pan coerced and lured the county commander in Dangtu County, and finally brought the Ma'anshan iron ore mining area under his rule.
Since September 134o, the population under Cheng Pan's rule has reached 2oooo people.
