45. Guerrilla Tactics (9)

After tossing for half a night, Ergin finally settled the various parts of the army, for the shameless harassment of the Chinese, Ergin deliberately doubled the patrol and sentry, before going to bed and discussed the route of the march with Ge Luo, Ge Luo means to give up taking the official road, would rather take a detour than face those endless traps, Ergin insisted that his opinion should also go from the official road, "Go from the small road, there are more traps, our army of more than 10,000 people has no group advantage, on the official road, our army drove over, no tricks are used!" ”

Gro reluctantly agreed with Elgin's opinion, but with a reluctant look, the two parted unhappily, Ergin came back to his room, wrote a little diary, in which he satirized the stupid Gaul, and was lying down and sleeping for a long time, when he heard the barking of dogs, followed by a crackling explosion, Elgin jumped up from the marching bed, and shouted outside: "What happened!" Soldier, tell me what's going on! ”

There were noisy figures outside, countless people were walking around outside, and there were crackling sounds everywhere, and there were many dog barks. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Outside it turned into a huge playground, countless dogs ran around excitedly, each dog had a long firecracker tied to its tail, crackling and exploding in the darkness, the fire was full of fire, some sparks splashed on the wood, and began to burn, the fire shone on the whole town, the horses were disturbed by the fire and the sound of firecrackers, and the dogs running around, some of the horses had broken free from the reins and rushed to a quiet place outside the town, and many soldiers took knives to cut the firecracker dogs that were scurrying around, Many dogs screamed after being cut and ran to other places, but the buildings in other places were also set on fire, but more dogs were injured and stimulated by ferocity, biting the soldiers and not letting go, and the chickens and dogs jumped on the scene. It's not lively.

A black dog with a firecracker exploded and was surrounded by soldiers with no way out, and when he saw that there was a safe place near Ergin, who was standing on the steps, he rushed towards Ergin's four hooves, and Ergin was shocked. Hurriedly fled to the side, the black dog saw that Ergin's room was still open, and rushed into Ergin's room with crackling and exploding firecrackers, and several people watched Ergin's room crackle and explode, and many small firecrackers flew out of the shattered windows. A spark exploded in mid-air that seemed very mocking to Elgin, and the black dog finally broke free from the firecracker, came out of the room, looked at the few people standing on the ground, wagged his tail, and turned away disdainfully.

"it!" Ergin finally stormed away, completely ignoring Gro's pitiful eyes on the side, "Can these Chinese be more shameless!" They all sent a team of dogs to attack us as an army! FK! "When Ergin was thundering, a gong sounded outside the town, which had just calmed a little, and countless people shouted outside. Erjin hurriedly held back his anger for the time being, went to the place where the troops were assembled, and ordered everyone to prepare their defenses, "The whole army is on alert, the Chinese are going to attack!" Ergin sneered, "If it weren't for these firecrackers and stupid dogs, the hateful yellow-skinned monkey might have been able to give us some trouble, so don't dream about it now!" ”

When Erjin heard those few words shouted outside, he asked the interpreter what he meant, and the interpreter trembled and replied: "They shouted to kill foreigners." Earn money! ”

Ergin cursed and commanded the whole army to be on guard, and it was not clear at night, and he did not know how many Chinese were outside. Ergin did not dare to take risks, especially in the face of the scheming Chinese, who could only focus on defense. The gongs and drums outside are beating urgently, it is obvious that the Chinese are about to attack, let's have a dignified decisive battle, I will let you see the bravery of the British! I swear by the honor of our family of Count Elgin! Ergin swore secretly in his heart.

...

Wu Yundi, who was not far away, laughed. "In ancient times, there was a single fire ox formation, and now we also have a firecracker dog formation, which is really innovative and infinitely useful, not to mention anything else, I'm afraid that the foreign devil won't be able to sleep well tonight," Wu Yundi said with a smile towards Feng Wanzhen, who was riding a rouge horse beside him, "This is thanks to Feng Xiangjun's good strategy!" ”

Feng Wanzhen, who was still wearing green clothes, smiled generously, "Where is the scheme, it's just a little girl's trick-or-treating thing, to have fun for foreigners, lest they sleep well at night, and come to toss our people with full energy during the day, my lord, can you send some regiments to practice in the town to take a look?" ”

"No need, this foreign devil must be on alert for the whole army, waiting for us with his teeth bared, needless sacrifice, let's go back and rest first, let's let go of the foreigners today, let's come to them tomorrow!"

"My lord," Feng Wanzhen's eyes rolled, and she came up with a strange idea, her eyes lit up, "My lord, how about we set a fire today?" Hengzhu Town has been occupied by foreigners, it is better to burn it clean, pour fire oil saltpeter on the downwind, the wind borrows the fire, presumably," Feng Wanzhen laughed, "Maybe I can see roast suckling pig tomorrow." ”

.....

Still noisy outside, Gro said to the heavily armed Erkin, "It seems that the Chinese will not attack." ”

"Shameless Chinese!" Ergin's eyes were filled with anger, "Don't dare to fight us head-on, but you always use this harassing method!" Ergin felt that he was sweating all over his body, how could it suddenly get hot, and the herald jumped out from behind Ergin, and stammered, Ergin hates to see this herald the most now, because he has no good news to him, and now it is bad news, "My lord, the town is on fire, and it is burning in the direction of the wind!" Three directions! It was put by the Chinese! ”

Only then did Ergin realize that he was not sweating from anger, but sweating from the fire.

There are still many people shouting outside, but Ergin must solve the more serious problem in front of him, that is, the fire that is burning rapidly in the distance, it seems that it can only break through in the direction of the downwind, the shouting outside suddenly stopped, Ergin, who was originally preparing to break through, did not give an order immediately, Gro hurriedly said: "What is the Earl in a daze, hurry up and break through!" ”

"No, the Chinese must be ambushing us," Ergin felt that he had mastered the enemy's movements, "did you hear, Mr. Minister, they deliberately pretended to retreat, waiting for us to take the bait!" (To be continued.) )
