Chapter 50: Victory

Chapter 50 is a triumphant start

Last time, it was said that Zhang Bao was teased by Lu Jian in a few words and wanted to go up and fight with others, and the first battalion commander immediately came out and grabbed Zhang Bao's horse reins and prevented him from riding his horse out. Zhang Bao glanced at the battalion commander who was holding the reins of his horse and didn't pay much attention to it, and Lu Jian's voice came again: "The little kid from there dares to talk nonsense here, and he dares to come to death before his hair grows?" There's a kind of you who comes out and fights a certain family for 300 rounds, no, against a little kid like you, with 300 rounds there, I can send you back to your hometown to see your grandfather in 300 rounds. ”

"I'm sorry, dare to look down on you, master, I'll let you see the power of my eight snake spears." Saying that, Zhang Bao wanted to urge the horse to step forward, but the battalion commander grabbed the reins with one hand, and with the other hand, he simply went directly to pull the horse's bridle and pulled the horse's head back.

Zhang Bao glared at the battalion commander fiercely and shouted: "What are you doing, let it go, I want to pinch out the of this unknown person." ”

"I'm sorry, General Zhang Xiao, the prince has a strict order, no fighting generals, and I ask General Zhang Xiao to forgive me." After speaking, the commander of the first battalion walked towards the Shu army camp without looking back.

Lu Jian looked at this scene dumbfounded, Shenma? That's it? Didn't you say that you were going to have a duel? Why did the horse lead away? Is this a Shenma situation? I still want to bully the child, why doesn't God give me this opportunity?

"Sure enough, it's a gutless bandit, he can only speak beautifully, but he doesn't dare to do it with a real knife, I think you are scared by grandpa and my might." When Lu Jian saw that Zhang Bao was about to return to the front of the Shu army, he used the general strategy again, wanting to provoke Zhang Bao to fight with himself. He is confident that he is more than enough to deal with this kind of battlefield rookie with only one heart. As long as the enemy's main commander is cut down, and with another charge, the enemy should collapse.

"What? You say it again, you, you, you, see I don't pinch your out. Zhang Bao was furious, pulled the horse's head hard and wanted to rush over, and the battalion commander desperately grabbed the horse's bridle and didn't let go, this is a matter of his own head, can he let go? Just when he was about to lose his support, he suddenly had an idea and shouted:

"All the battalions have it, and they take five steps forward."

Just listen to "Click." Five neat footsteps sounded, and a battalion of 500 soldiers marched forward five steps in a straight line. And Zhang Bao and the commander of the first battalion were crossed by them and left behind.

"Prepare to shoot." The commander of the first battalion gave another order.

"Smack! Syllable! "The first battalion of shooters had the barrel of their guns flat, the butts of their guns on their shoulders, the ammunition had long been loaded, and now they were ready to shoot.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Zhang Bao had no choice but to give up, waved his hand, and said to the second and third battalions, "Keep up." ”

The men and horses of the two battalions immediately followed under the orders of their respective battalion commanders, ready to shoot. Now the three battalions formed a three-stage strike camp, and each battalion formed a long snake formation about 300 meters long, a total of three long snakes, and took turns to shoot.

Lu Jian looked at the formation of the Shu army, sneered, and said, "I don't know the so-called formation. Then he quickly ordered to draw out a thousand men and horses to attack the left flank of the Shu army, a thousand soldiers and horses to attack the right flank, and also sent 2,000 people to guard the rear, because he had just seen that the Shu army had divided about a thousand people and wanted to detour to his rear, and he laughed at the Shu army generals in his heart: he still wanted to divide his troops to attack when his troops were insufficient, which was really a pig's head.

"General Zhang, please give the order to fire." After all, Zhang Bao is the commander of the regiment and the commander of the entire second regiment, and he still needs to give this final firing order, so the first battalion commander asked Zhang Bao to give the order to fire.

"Okay, let me see if this nameless rat will be-and-urine under my three-stage hit. Aim - Fire! As soon as Zhang Bao gave the order, the gunfire of "bang ......" rang out, and what an amazing sight it was for 500 guns to fire at the same time, and the sound alone was enough to shake the earth and capture people's hearts.

The Shu army, including the horses, were stuffed with strips of cloth on their ears, Rao was like this, and Liu Hou, who was in the back, also felt that his ears were shocked and couldn't stand it. The Wei army, which was 100 paces away, was so frightened that many of them were trembling and almost fainted. Of course, the person standing in the front row fell straight down and was shot and knocked down.

At least 200 people were shot in a volley, who wanted them to stand in such a dense formation? People won't lie down when they shoot, they deserve it. Liu Hou and Guo Youzhi stood on a temporary wooden shelf behind them, and they were secretly happy when they saw what happened in front of them.

There is such a hit rate 100 steps away, which is much higher than the usual target practice, and the main general of the Wei army does not understand the characteristics of hot weapon warfare, if they stand sparsely and lie on the ground, the casualties are estimated to not even be one-tenth of the current one-third, if they know how to dig trenches, it will be even smaller.

Unfortunately, they didn't, and they were cut down in rows like wheat. After the first battalion fired, it reloaded on the spot, and the second battalion passed through their gaps, took two steps and then aimed and fired a salvo. The reason why I had to walk two steps before the first battalion was because after the first battalion fired just now, a burst of black smoke rose up, which had a great impact on the field of vision, and today it was a windy weather, which was not conducive to the spread of black smoke.

Naturally, the Wei army was thrown down by a row of people. Lu Jian was lucky, in the first round of blows, he was not shot, but the horse under his crotch was shot, he was lifted off the horse by the painful horse, and was surrounded by loyal guards, who used his body to help him block the gun.

Therefore, even though many musketeers aimed at him, he finally fled into the army in panic under the protection of his human shield. It wasn't until the Shu army finished shooting 3 rows of muskets that he reacted, and hurriedly shouted orders for archers to return fire and shield bearers to raise shields for protection.

However, as soon as the archers ran out, before they could draw their bows and shoot arrows, they were discovered by the Shu army, and a platoon of muskets came over, and the Wei army's bow battalion landed with heavy casualties. The rest only shot a few scattered arrows, which landed on the Shu army camp, splashing blood flowers, and more than 10 musketeers fell to the ground. The medical battalion immediately ran out dozens of people in white clothes carrying stretchers, went to the front line, picked up these casualties, put them on stretchers, and ran away.

The medical battalion set up a temporary ambulance camp 50 paces behind the front line, which was enough distance to escape the blows of the Wei army's long-range weapons. At 50 steps, the well-trained ambulance soldier only took 20 seconds to reach it, even if he was carrying a stretcher.

As soon as the stretcher was put down, a group of doctors and nurses gathered around, and a whole set of standard procedures for treating arrow wounds such as cutting clothes, disinfection, acupuncture and anesthesia, lifting arrows, rinsing wounds, stopping bleeding, applying medicine, suturing, and bandaging had long been practiced by them.

A few unlucky people who were shot to the point couldn't see it, but these doctors didn't give up, and they invited senior doctors to give them first aid: acupuncture, ligation to stop bleeding, matching blood types, blood transfusion, feeding sugar and salt water, feeding ginseng soup and other precious herbs to prepare first-aid soup

The blood transfusion technique was also taught to Hua Tuo by Liu Hou through Zuo Ci's mouth, and was regarded by Zuo Ci as the supreme magic method of the immortal family, called the great fa who borrowed blood to continue his life, and when Zuo Ci taught Hua Tuo, Hua Tuo was so shocked that his hands trembled.

Fortunately, Liu Hou patiently explained to Zuo Ci, and after Zuo Ci accepted it, he patiently explained to Hua Tuo, so that their fears were slowly eliminated. In fact, blood transfusion is not difficult, the first difficulty lies in blood type. Just match your blood type. As for the spread of infectious diseases because of blood transfusion, it can only be ignored when it is necessary to save lives.

The second difficulty lies in the blood transfusion equipment, Liu Hou threw the concept to the craftsman camp, and let them figure it out by themselves. Nor were the skilled craftsmen who covered it, but they hammered the silver into thin slices, and rolled it up to make a large and small hollow needle. There were no hoses, and these craftsmen tried many materials, such as reed pipes, boiling beef tendons into glue and shaping them into tubes, and even using thin metal tubes.

Among them, the reed pipe and the metal pipe are hard and will not bend, but it is nothing, the big deal is that the fixed posture of both sides of the blood transfusion is motionless during the blood transfusion.

These materials have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they are currently being placed in the medical camp, ready to be used in the actual situation, to test which one is better, and a qiē based on facts has gradually become a benchmark creed of Liu Hou Group.

Seeing that the medical battalion below was busy rescuing the wounded, Liu Hou couldn't help frowning, he didn't like to see his soldiers have casualties, but he also knew that in a fight, casualties were almost inevitable.

The shape on the battlefield was very good, the musketeers advanced in rows and rows, and after each row of fires, the back row would advance a few steps before firing, and even so, the distance between the two sides remained almost 100 paces, because the Wei army was constantly retreating.

The archers were crippled as soon as they came up, and the shields in their hands were useless, and the shields in the hands of these Wei soldiers were not made of thick wooden planks or covered with iron sheets, and they did not have enough protection, and under the blow of the musket, they were no different from the papier-mâché. Most shieldbearers were hit directly by the lead bullet that pierced the shield, and then fell with a bang.

The Wei army was not only ordinary soldiers, but even the main general Lu Jian had never seen this situation, he was slaughtered as soon as he came up, and he wanted to organize a few charges to break down the camp of the Shu army, but now he didn't have to do anything, only to be killed. It's like a peerless swordsman, how powerful the swordsmanship is, but as soon as you meet the enemy, your hand is held down, and you can't even pull out the sword, no matter how good your swordsmanship is, it's useless.

When the Shu army fired 10 shots per person, the Wei army finally collapsed, and the number of dead and wounded had exceeded 2,000, more than one-third of Lü Jianzhong's army.

The soldiers began to flee in all directions, and it was useless for Lu Jian to shout in a loud voice, only less than a third of his own soldiers were desperately protecting him, and they also ran in the direction of the Shu army.

When leaving, Lu Jian did not forget to look at the two partial divisions he sent out to attack the flank of the Shu army, and found that they were no better.

There are still 2,000 people in the rear, yes, there is still hope, Lu Jian immediately asked his own soldiers to pass the order, so that the 2,000 men and horses in the rear moved closer to him and helped collect the men. However, he soon found out in despair that the 2,000 men in the rear were quickly disrupted by the rout, and many of them were even swept back by the rout.

"You can't run backwards!" Lu Jian shouted, he remembered, there was a team of living Hades of the Shu army waiting for them behind. But who can hear him in the chaos of the battlefield?

The rout who ran backwards was quickly retributed, and Guan Xing's 1,000 men and horses lined up in three rows, and after the rout entered the firing range, they began to shoot in a three-stage attack. Although the routs ran fast, they could not make it to this distance.

A skilled flintlock gunner can fire a shot in 15 seconds, and even a slow one shot can be guaranteed in half a minute. Liu Hou's musketeers fired an average of one shot every 20 seconds. The three rows of soldiers fired in turns, and there was hardly much space in between, and under such a blow, the position between the rout and Guan Xing almost became a death zone, and I don't know how to deal with the Shaowei army lying here.

However, Guan Xing has few troops after all, and can only block a horizontal plane of about 200 meters. It didn't take long for the routs to find that the rear could not be passed, and seeing that the situation was not good, they turned around and fled to both sides of the Guanxing position. For this reason, Guan Xing was helpless, so he had to order the soldiers to shoot themselves, hoping to kill and injure the Wei army to the greatest extent.

At this time, there was no shooting target in front of the 2nd Regiment in charge of the main attack, and Zhang Bao ordered the troops to bayonet and chase down the Wei army. Liu Hou asked people to send an order to Zhang Bao, only allowed to chase and kill 5 miles away, and pay attention to the signal to withdraw troops at any time.
