"Little kids, three minutes of blood. The arduous exploration trip will make him retreat. Li Hao rushed to the backyard, and Li Xiao shook his head helplessly.

"I don't think so! You, the fourth brother, I met several times when I was in the capital. Although he is not as good as your second master, his calm bearing is much stronger than that of the third master. Since he can propose to you to build the railway, he probably really thinks so in his heart. You have to be mentally prepared that one day he will come to you with the results of the exploration, will you give this errand to him or not?

You want to take the postgraduate entrance examination Li Hao, but the people below heard that Li Hao is your fourth brother. It's too late to stammer along the way, how can you give him any hardship. The old man made a bet with you, the fourth master will go to Liaodong to explore this time, and it will definitely go very smoothly. Zhang Huangyan looked at Li Hao's back and gave Li Xiao a problem.

"Uh......!" Li Xiao just wanted to embarrass Li Hao and hone his mind by the way. didn't expect that the magistrates had a hot ambition to flatter themselves. I heard that Li Hao is his fourth brother, and it is estimated that he can offer this fourth master.

"Hey......! The wicked still have to be done by the old man, and the old man will say hello all the way. Li Hao is not allowed to be given special treatment, he needs to rely on his own ability to complete this exploration mission. ”

Zhang Huangyan shook his head helplessly, it seems that this black cauldron has to be carried by himself. 's cousin, even gave birth to a son to Li Xiao. Counting up, Zhu Yihai, the Longwu Emperor, should be regarded as Li Xiao's stepson. Since the day he joined Li Xiao's gang, the rise and fall of the Zhang family has been closely linked to Li Xiao.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Fireworks go down to Yangzhou in March, the lonely sail is far away and the blue sky is exhausted, and only the Yangtze River skyline is seen.

The poems are beautiful, but Li Hu now lacks the slightest sense of beauty. The Third Division was in Yangzhou and encountered an unprecedented tactic. This made Li Hu, the commander of the vanguard battalion, suffer enough!

"The battalion commander broke three more brothers." As expected, the bad news came again. Li Hu was so angry that he looked like a grumpy male teacher, but he didn't have the slightest choice.

When there were still more than 30 miles to Yangzhou, Li Hu felt that something was wrong. When the local people saw the Liao army, they were obviously full of hostility. Black spears were fired at their own soldiers from all directions, all of which were breech-loading guns abandoned by the Liao army.

Because of the sufficient charge, this fire gun hits very far. Moreover, the trajectory is straight and accurate, and it has great lethality at a distance of three or four hundred meters.

Often, as the team walked along the official road, two bullets would come from an unknown place. By the time the team stopped to dodge and prepare for battle, the shooters had already hidden.

The team can only search and move forward cautiously. Especially when you go to a place with dense vegetation, you are even more energetic. Now it has developed to the point where you have to use a mortar to shoot a suspicious bush.

The gunmen did not kill a few, but the ammunition consumption was not small. The most head-scratching thing is that it seriously slows down the march. Nie Dahai's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he greeted the whole family of the commander of the forward battalion under him at every turn. In the end, this bad errand fell on Li Hu's head, and he borrowed Nie Dahai's eight guts, and he didn't dare to greet Li Hu's ancestors.

The weather has been good these days, and in the strong sunlight, the smoke from the muzzle of the gun is nowhere to be seen. But when the irritated soldiers rushed over, there would be people on the other side of the fire. Dog's marksmanship was very good, and in just one day, Li Hu's men killed eight people.

Finally, I was so close to the gunman that I could even see the gunman's appearance. There was a loud explosion under the feet of the soldiers, and the blast of the explosion could directly tear people apart. Steel balls, which are denser than spring rain, scatter in all directions.

That time, Li Hu lost the entire sharp knife class. Three died on the spot, and five were injured to varying degrees. Two of them are seriously injured and are not expected to survive tomorrow.

The nightmare really begins at night, even if it's staying in the village. The Southern Ming army of the dog day could also accurately shell the house of the Liao army, causing Li Hu to spend a difficult night in the cellar.

Even the well-trained Liao army suffered heavy casualties in the continuous shelling overnight. The Southern Ming army completely disregarded the lives and deaths of the locals, and the casualties of the villagers were more than double that of the Liao army.

Mortars were used, the shelling fortifications were underneath, and nets were covered. Not only was there no muzzle flame, but even the sound was quiet. Li Xiao organized people to rush over, constantly stepping on mines along the way, and I don't know how many gunmen there were in the dark. A platoon sent out was a corpse in the morning. Fortunately, the opponent has only three mortars, and it seems that there are not enough shells. Otherwise, the casualties of the Liao army would have been greater.

If their mortar shells were as plentiful as the Liao army, the entire battalion would have been wiped out by now.

Li Hu found himself like a tiger, and suddenly fell into the mire. I was full of strength, but I couldn't use any of it. In three days after entering the Yangzhou territory, the Yangzhou city wall lost almost a company without seeing it.

A search platoon sent out this morning was attacked in a thin fog. As a result, three people were lost, and the continuous deaths made Li Hu almost crazy.

"Holy shit!" Li Hu used his binoculars to carefully look at the small mountain bag on the opposite mountain, but found nothing.

Those Southern Ming troops were obviously small in number, and they were very familiar with the ground in Yangzhou. The worst thing is that these guys are surprisingly good marksmanship. Many soldiers were hit in the chest, and there was no way to save them.

"Battalion commander, there is a mist now. You can't see the muzzle smoke at all, and you have to wait for the sun to clear the fog. ”

"Get out! Lao Tzu knows. Li Hu was like an angry lion, kicking over this mouthy guy.

"Send another squad to search, and all the tricks will be bright spots for Lao Tzu, and mortars will be ready at any time. found that people were fucking blown up by Lao Tzu! Li Hu roared angrily.

This is to use a class of people as bait, as long as the opposite side can't help but shoot. No one can escape the covering fire of nine mortars!

A squad of Liao troops went out to search again, and everyone stared at the mountain bag opposite.

"Inside the paddy field opposite." Li Hu suddenly pointed to the opposite paddy field and roared, just now he saw a flash of fire in the paddy field.

Sure enough, a Liao soldier fell to the ground softly.

The Southern Ming Army of Rouri was really smart, and everyone thought that the bullet was fired from the opposite mountain. Unexpectedly, the person was lying in the paddy field. No wonder the hundreds of pairs of eyes in the camp didn't see where the people were.

They were all gunners who fired hundreds of shells, Li Hu just pointed. The gunners quickly adjusted their positions, but in a dozen seconds, the shells whistled and smashed down.

In the sound of the explosion, Li Hu saw three people covered in mud and water getting up from the rice fields and running. The silt in the paddy fields seriously affected their speed, and after laying the advance amount, another salvo was fired. The three were torn to shreds in the flying shrapnel.

"Damn, how do these dogs stay in the paddy fields?" Li Hu was a little confused, and the water in the paddy field was up to his knees. People don't drown when they lie inside, and besides, they are all water, fire, and powder are also easy to get damp. I can't figure out how these guys do it.

"Hello Commander!" A group of people stood up and saluted Cao Wenzhao who came over, so angry that Cao Wenzhao wanted to strangle this group of bastards.

"As I said, you are not allowed to salute at the front. Damn, pull it down and hit five sticks each. For these bastards who almost killed themselves, Cao Wenzhao showed no mercy at all. No matter how big an official you are, you have to run out of bullets. God knows if there are any sharpshooters around here!

Seeing his subordinates being beaten, Li Hu couldn't help it. told these bastards many times, but when these guys saw that the master was excited, they forgot the battlefield regulations, and they deserved to be beaten.

"I heard that there were a lot of casualties?" Cao Wenzhao frowned and looked at Li Hu. When he was on the periphery of Xuzhou, Li Hu's battalion was very good, and when he arrived in Yangzhou, it was like a different team.

"I can't use the strength, I just killed three sharpshooters. These dogs, hide and put hidden guns. At night, there were mortar attacks. There are mines planted on the official road, and it only takes one person to step on it. The soldiers would feel that there were mines everywhere under their feet, and the whole team would not dare to walk.

From the day before yesterday to the present, I haven't even fought a serious battle. However, the manpower has lost a small 100 people, and the casualties are combined, and there is no longer a company formation. I haven't fought such a! ”

"New tactics! It looks like there are masters in Yangzhou! After listening to Li Hu's report, Cao Wenzhao also felt that something was wrong.

The Liao army has always pursued the idea of artillery, whether it is offensive or defensive, it is the artillery that attacks first. This method dealt with the regular army, and the two armies fought against each other. can deal with this harassing style of play, but it seems to be at a loss.

"Commander, you can't take the lives of the soldiers like this. This is still twenty miles away from Yangzhou, this is ......! ”

"There is a team of mastiffs from Liaodong in the division, and I will transfer them to you. Scatter the dogs, and you don't believe that these dogs can avoid the dog's nose. Let your people hide it, and if you find the dog biting you out, you will die.

These people are so accurate in marksmanship, they must not be ordinary soldiers. It is estimated that the number of people will not be too much, let's search the periphery of Yangzhou first, this kind of bastard will be cleaned as much as possible. Otherwise, these people will be more lethal when they attack the city. Cao Wenzhao thought about it for a while and came up with a solution.

Li Hu knew that Cao Wenzhao had found a batch of mastiffs from the Jurchens in Liaodong, and at first he didn't understand that he wanted to get these dozens of big dogs for Mao, but now he understands the purpose of this dog.

You can hide to see if you can avoid the dog's nose.

Soon, dozens of large dogs were led to the front of the battle. Unleashed the ropes of the five big dogs, and the five big dogs sprang out like arrows off the string. In a bush about a mile away, a well-dressed guy was immediately thrown out.

A fine bead of sweat immediately appeared in Li Hu's head, and this guy was only five or six hundred meters away from him. If he goes more than 100 meters further, it is estimated that this guy will shoot himself. Of course, after the fools saluted Cao Wenzhao, the target should have become Cao Wenzhao.

A few more dogs were let go, and a group of big dogs were biting around the guy. The screaming sound, Li Hu heard it clearly. No one thought about shooting, they all wanted to see this bastard torn to pieces by dogs. When one of his arms was torn off by a big dog, the Liao soldiers erupted in deafening cheers.

That guy is also a tough guy, and under the siege of more than a dozen big dogs, he actually stood up with a tree.

"Not good!" Cao Wenzhao snatched the gun from the guard's hand, and before he could shoot, he heard a gunshot. The guy's head shattered like a watermelon, and there was a violent explosion as the man fell. The smoke of gunpowder engulfed more than a dozen big dogs together!

"Found it, the gun fired over there." Yangguan pierced the mist, and the soldiers quickly saw green smoke coming from the muzzle of the gun.

The mortar shell smashed over with a whistle, and Li Hu clearly saw that the man's thigh flew up to the branch with half of his buttocks.

"There was a mine next to the tree, and the man was going to rush over to death, just to detonate the mine to give himself a good time. It's a pity, it's a pity that these dozen dogs. The order went down, and the dogs were put in at most three, which was far away from Yangzhou, and I didn't know how many of these miscellaneous pieces there were. Cao Wenzhao reluctantly threw the gun to the guards. At a distance of five hundred meters, he was actually not sure to knock that guy down.

"No!" Li Hu agreed, and finally found a way to deal with these bastards. The Jurchens were very annoying, but the dogs they trained were really good. For the first time, Li Hu felt that it seemed reasonable for Li Xiao to let go of the hundreds of thousands of Jurchens and let them live in Lushun.

In one day, the pace of advancement is fast. Those guys who were dressed in colorful clothes and even had weeds hanging on their bodies were surrounded and suppressed by the big dogs. Li Hu advanced for more than ten miles without casualties, and the tall city wall of Yangzhou could already be seen in front of him.

Along the way, he killed a hundred and ten gunmen, and not a single one was left alive. Mastiff casualties were also staggering, some of which were killed by gunmen. Some of them were gunmen who pulled grenades in their arms and died with the mastiffs. When it was time to camp at night, there were only a dozen of the dozens of big dogs left.

Li Hu kept an eye on it and sent a company outside without resting in the village.

Sure enough, there was shelling again in the middle of the night. The Liao soldiers hiding in the fortifications, covering their heads to defend against artillery. The company outside had already let go of the big dog and followed the dog to find a mortar position. Soon, they found several large pits. Inside were three mortars being fired, and the soldiers pounced on them with the big dogs.

This time, Li Hu had more than a dozen captives. Tomorrow morning I finally have something to give to the brothers.
