Zhao Tu immediately thought that He Zhen might have fallen for the red-haired devil and left the mountain, he squinted his eyes and thought about countermeasures in his mind, should he return to Haifeng?

Seeing the empty city, he was about to order the troops to withdraw, but then he still resisted the idea of retreating, after all, he was also a general, if He Zhen was defeated by the red-haired devil in Haifeng, at least he could withdraw to Lu Feng to breathe.

He immediately ordered his troops to defend the city and further search for the living.

The hard work paid off, and the soldiers found a group of shivering people on the edge of a pond, who were covered in mud and numbly watched the soldiers of the Ming army coming and going.

Soon they were brought to Zhao Tu, and Zhao Tu asked them, why was there no one in the city?

didn't pay attention to him, Zhao Tu was a little angry, and roared at this group of people again, why are there no shadows of the soldiers and civilians in the city?

An old man who looked very old said to him, "General, they are all killed." ”

Zhao Tu's mind shook for a moment, he seemed to see the scene of the Qing army slaughtering in Jiangbei, and he asked the speaker with a big knife.

"Who killed me?"

The people were visibly frightened, and after a long time, they said bitterly, "Red. Red-haired devils. ”

Zhao Tu asked his soldiers to give him a sip of water and some food for the others, which made everyone emotionally stable, and they also learned about the tragedy of the soldiers and civilians in Lufeng City from their mouths.

Probably last month, a group of red-haired merchants suddenly brought a large amount of spices and other materials to Lufeng to trade, and hundreds of mercenaries came with them, and these mercenaries were well-equipped.

In a small county town, hundreds of red-haired devils suddenly came, and the local officials didn't care about the arrival of these mercenaries at all, but welcomed the red-haired people to trade.

Especially after these mercenaries came to the city, they were very low-key, neither disturbing the residents, nor clash with the local garrison in Lufeng.

There are also a few local officials who are also aware of the threat of red-haired merchants and mercenaries, but the red-haired merchants sent thousands of taels of silver to local officials, as well as red-haired women, and almost all the local officials were bought

business, and also very much maintain the status of the red-haired people in Lufeng and other places.

The local officials have completely fallen to the red-haired merchants, and transferred a large number of red-haired mercenaries into the barracks to train Lu Feng's garrison, which happened to be this operation, so that after He Zhen's scouts entered Lufeng, they only saw that there were only more than 100 red-haired merchants and mercenaries in the city.

Because of the shamelessness of the local officials, He Zhen's intelligence was seriously wrong, and before he led the army to Haifeng, the local officials of Lufeng did not go to Jin Sheng's banquet. It was gathered together by the red-haired mercenaries in the name of congratulatory gifts, and then launched a surprise attack to kill all the local officials.

Before He Zhenshuai's army attacked Haifeng, Lu Feng's hundreds of red-haired mercenaries had quietly arrived in Haifeng County, and lurked in the city, waiting to give the Ming army a fatal blow.

Because Lu Feng's red-haired mercenaries reinforced Haifeng, He Zhen kicked on the iron plate, and the troops suffered heavy losses.

Listening to the people's complaints, Zhao Tu couldn't breathe.

These red-haired devils are too hateful, even more hateful than Jiannu and Fusang.

When he thought of this, he let out a long sigh, how could the Ming Dynasty have so many enemies? There are the Great Shun Army, the Great Western Army, and the Jiannu and Fusang people, and at this time there are red-haired devils, and they said softly, the Ming Dynasty that is adrift through the wind and rain.

Zhao Tu decided to defend Lufeng City to the end, because the food they brought was not much, only enough for the whole army to use for three days, and after three days, there was no food, and the whole army was going to run out of food, he asked the troops to look for it in the city, expecting that there would be food in the city, and the troops of thousands of people wandered around the city, and found some food, which was enough for the army to last for seven days.

A general asked Zhao Tu to withdraw, Zhao Tu slapped him and scolded: "Shit, don't give Lao Tzu a good guard in the city." ”

Zhao Tu settled the city defense, personally led the troops to Haifeng, the distance between the two places was not far, and the group quickly stepped up and arrived in Haifeng in the evening of the same day.

When he arrived at the battlefield, just after the battle, he was surprised to see that the Haifeng battlefield was one-sided, in his opinion, He Zhen's soldiers and horses belonged to elite generals, but he didn't expect that in front of the red-haired devil, he was defeated.

There were hundreds of corpses at the city gate alone, and a large number of corpses of Ming soldiers were thrown from the city walls in the city

。

And not far away, He Zhen gathered the remnants with red eyes.

After the battle, the red-haired devils in the city did not continue to attack, He Zhen took advantage of this opportunity to gather thousands of soldiers and horses, retreated to a forest in the northwest of Haifeng City, and led the troops to garrison the woods, waiting for Ling Jingyang to lead the reinforcements to arrive.

The commander of the red-haired devil in the city is Colonel Jackson, the commander of the Royal Grenadier Regiment from the British Isles.

Jackson was on the city wall, arrogantly looking at the Ming soldiers outside the city, thinking that this Ming man really couldn't help fighting.

It had only been a long time since he had beaten the Ming army like a piece of shit, and then his adjutant said to him.

"Your Excellency Regiment Commander, the Ming people will definitely not give up, there will definitely be more reinforcements coming, our army does not have many soldiers and horses, it is better to meet with the Spanish Legion in Guangzhou and the French Corps as soon as possible, with the joint efforts of our three corps, we can achieve a hegemony in the land of China."

Jackson laughed at the adjutants for not having guts, they were from the Royal Grenadier Regiment in the British Isles.

It is much more noble than those barbarians in France and Spain, not to mention dozens of warships escorting and sending more than a hundred troop transports from the South Seas to support.

He firmly believed that as long as he had advanced weapons, he would be able to sweep across the land of China, and the thought of enslaving tens of millions of Ming slaves made Jackson laugh wildly. Suddenly, a captain pointed to the position of the Ming army outside the city, and Jackson saw that the Ming army was arranging artillery, as if it was going to bomb Haifeng County.

The adjutant asked him if he wanted the whole army to avoid the artillery, Jackson looked at the red-coated cannons of the Ming army, and some miscellaneous cannons, sub-mother cannons and other artillery, and looked down on the Ming army even more.

In his eyes, these cannons were toys for three-year-olds, and the guns of the Royal Grenadier Regiment were more powerful than these cannons, and he said to his adjutant: "Go, give the Ming people a gift from the British Isles, and let the Ming people also taste the power of British artillery." ”

The guns of the British Isles, that is, the breech guns of later generations, are far more powerful in reloading speed and power than the redcoat cannons, and what is even more terrifying is that the shells of the breech guns are flowering shells, not solid shells of the redcoat cannons.

The breech guns went down, as long as they hit the target, they could cause pieces of damage to the Ming army, and there were twenty breech guns in Haifeng City, looking forward to showing their bloodthirsty fangs.
