Chapter 215: The Burning Phoenix Battalion Sets Out
I have to say. Although Zhao Dachun doesn't understand anything, he has one advantage, that is, as long as Chen Zhang says, he will obey it.
Although there are some puzzles, they do not go against each other.
In a way, a man like this is a good soldier.
At least you don't have to worry about being stabbed in the back.
The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny, Zhao Dachun and Qian Ruxue were just about to order all the soldiers to go to the rear and withdraw from the capital, but the large army led by the general defending the city had already rushed over frantically and instantly opened the formation.
Once you retreat now, it will be tantamount to being attacked by the enemy in the abdomen and handing over your back to the officers and soldiers, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
The general guarding the city rode a high-headed horse, looking at Zhao Dachun and Qian Ruxue in front of him, his brows were deeply wrinkled, and even his face was full of surprise and incredulity.
He also knew that it was the rogue who came, but he didn't even think that there was a woman among these rogues, which was too incredible.
"Guys, am I mistaken? This group of people in front of me is really a rogue."
The general of the city guard asked curiously with a slight hesitation, and the soldiers on the side also glanced at each other, with doubts on their faces
"General Qiyu, they are the rogues who rushed from Tianxuanmen"
"Since it's a rogue, why are there women, have you seen it, and there are even women in the army who have become rogues? It's also so weird."
The head of the defending general shook like a rattle, and he was really puzzled.
After all, for them, they never thought that there would be women who could become rogues, not that there are no female rogues, but generally speaking, they are very few.
The vast majority of women are basically either bullied, or become Mrs. of the village, or do some laundry and cooking in the logistics, who would have thought that they would be allowed to become rogues and come out to kill the enemy, this is really incredible, it is simply a matter of looking for death.
If a woman can do it at war, what else do you need a man to do?
"General, we don't know what the hell is going on, are they being coerced by the rogue?"
"Yes, these women should be coerced, otherwise how could they become rogues?"
"These rogues are really mad, not only burning, killing and looting, but also forcing women to become rogues and die for them, it's really despicable, really despicable."
The general defending the city was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he immediately became angry.
It seemed to him that he had found the problem of the matter, and the group of female soldiers in front of him must have been coerced by the rogues, and these rogues were quite despicable.
They use these female soldiers to attack, and at that time, will the women, who are powerless as officers and soldiers, attack or not?
If you don't attack, your army will be broken by the other side, and the rogue will be able to take the opportunity to kill into it, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
But if you attack, you'll kill women. I can't get over it on my conscience.
As soon as I think of this. The general who defended the city instantly gasped and said almost through gritted teeth
"It's really despicable."
The surrounding soldiers were the same, looking at each other one by one.
To be honest, there are really some people who don't know what to do now, after all, if the other party is all rogues, they can still kill them desperately, but if it is a group of old and weak women and children, they really can't do it.
Thinking of the general guarding the city here, he took a deep breath, raised his head, looked at Zhao Dachun in front of him and shouted
"Liukou, I am the general of the city guarding the capital, now that you have been surrounded, hurry up and surrender, maybe I can also be lenient with you for the sake of your surrender, otherwise don't blame us for being unkind to you."
Zhao Dachun's face was gloomy, and he gasped as he looked at the officers and soldiers rushing in front of him.
Unexpectedly, before he could find the lord, he fell into the encirclement of officers and soldiers. But what was unexpected was that these officers and soldiers did not charge directly, but spoke instead.
Zhao Dachun was not used to it, and shook his head and said
"Don't talk about this nonsense, if you want to beat you, if I am afraid, I am raised by you, our barbarians have never been afraid of people, and there are no cowards."
Brute?
The general was slightly stunned by the name, but he had never heard of it.
Shaking his head randomly, in today's era of war and chaos, all kinds of rogues have revolted.
Let's put it this way, today you have destroyed more than a dozen rogue groups, and tomorrow you will be able to pop up more than twenty, and these rogue names are more arrogant than the other.
If you really care, some names will make you faint with laughter, or even die of laughter.
"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll see the truth under my hands, but don't you think it's very shameful that you let go of all these women, as a big man, to let these women be scapegoats?"
The general defending the city rebuked sternly.
Although I don't know if it's useful, but if it is useful, at least it can save these women, after all, fighting is a man's business, what does it have to do with women.
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Dachun's face was full of doubts.
Elderly, weak, women and children?
What does that mean?
Do I have old and weak women and children here?
Thinking about it, he turned his head, looked around, looked at Qian Ruxue and the others, shook his head and said
"What nonsense are you talking about, our barbarian army will never use the old and weak women and children as shields, the lord said that fighting is our men's business, our barbarian army is to give the people a good life, stand up for the people, rob the rich and help the poor, and it is impossible to use the old and weak women and children as shields, this is simply impossible, you are just talking nonsense."
"What, I'm talking nonsense, I'm talking nonsense?"
The face of the general defending the city changed slightly, his eyes were round, and he almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood when he looked at Zhao Dachun in front of him.
What do you call me nonsense.
You yourself now have this gang of old and weak women and children in front of you, no, to be precise, there is this gang of captives, and you even say that you will never use these as shields.
Are you still going to be shameless, are you still going to be shameless?
The general who defended the city was almost angry all of a sudden, although he knew that the rogues were unreasonable and immoral, but he didn't expect them to really talk nonsense with their eyes open like this, which was really infuriating, and he laughed angrily in an instant.
"Since you claim to be a so-called barbarian army, what do you say about robbing the rich and helping the poor, then what are you pulling these women into the battlefield for? Don't tell me, it's just here to cheer"
The general defending the city pointed his angry hand at Qian Ruxue and the others.
Zhao Dachun reflected at this time, and his face was full of consternation. After a long while, his brows furrowed deeply, and then he said cautiously
"What are you talking about? Could it be that you are talking about the Burning Phoenix Camp? I'm sorry, the Liefeng Battalion is not an old and weak woman or child, they are also a member of our barbarian army, I don't know what you mean by this"
"What Flame Phoenix Camp? The Burning Phoenix Battalion is also a member of the barbarian army?"
The general defending the city was completely shocked, there had never been a woman as a soldier in the Dachang Empire.
, Although there is also a female soldier, but it basically belongs to the family of military generals, or all the men are dead, and only women can be handsome, but even then it is quite few, and the leader is also the man who leads.
An army of women like this is simply unheard of, unheard of, unthinkable.
As soon as he thought of it, he suddenly raised his head and gritted his teeth
"Nonsense, you rogues are simply frenzied and fighting, and even bringing women with you is simply ridiculous."
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and shouted at Qian Ruxue and the others
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are the officers and soldiers of the Dachang Empire, we will attack next, you immediately retreat, don't join it, fighting is not something you women can mix"
"Don't worry, the officers and soldiers of my Dachang Empire will definitely rescue you."
I have to say that the general who defends the city is still more conscientious, if it is some ambitious people, it doesn't matter if you are a woman or not, as long as it is a rogue, even if it is a woman, he can kill it.
After all, the rogues who killed these were all credits.
Qian Ruxue gritted her teeth lightly, she thought that after she formed the Liefeng Battalion, she would be able to be looked down upon and take revenge, but now the general defending the city in front of her gave him a strong slap, making her clearly know that even if he formed the Liefeng Battalion, it was only a women's army in the eyes of others after all, and there was no combat effectiveness at all.
At this moment, she even had some gratitude for Chen Zhang, it seemed that only Chen Zhang could really step into the battlefield and treat her as a human being, not a caged bird who only needed protection, could only have children in the back, and take care of housework.
"This general guarding the city, he doesn't need me, he is the commander of the barbarian Liefeng Battalion. If you dare to attack, then our Fierce Phoenix Battalion will definitely not show weakness, and will launch an attack to stop it"
"Don't think we're women and look down on us. We're not going to give up."
In any case, the general defending the city in front of him is indeed well-intentioned. While Qian Ruxue said cruel words, she also opened her mouth to dissuade her.
What?
What's going on?
Could it be that the clown ended up being me?
The general defending the city opened his mouth wide, he was 100% kind, but he didn't expect to be greeted by the hostility of the other party.
Looking at Qian Ruxue in front of her, she took a deep breath and shook her head with a wry smile, "Now that the people of the Dachang Empire are not living well, even women have become what they are now, they can only be said to have been completely brainwashed."
His brows furrowed, he sighed leisurely, and whispered to the people on the side
"Pass the order, launch an attack in a while, specifically deal with the men to kill, and the women ......"
There was a pause. Word by word
"If you can just stun them and don't kill them, they're just poor people, and if they attack us, then kill them too."
The defending general knew very well that the war was bloody and cruel, and he had no problem protecting some women in the case of absolute superiority.
But if these women do something to their own soldiers, they are enemies, and as long as they are enemies, he will never be merciful.
"Yes"
Many officers and soldiers were stunned for a moment, then nodded, and the eyes of Qian Ru and the others in front of them became very strange.
They really didn't think that one day they would fight a woman, which is simply ridiculous and generous.
"Kill!"
After doing all this, the general defending the city took a deep breath, took out the long sword in his hand, and with a murderous aura in his eyes, he waved his big hand and rode his horse in an instant. The many officers and soldiers behind him hurriedly urged their horses forward and rushed towards Zhao Dachun.
Zhao Dachun laughed, his eyes were full of murder, although the number of the other party was large, and he only had 200 people, but he was not afraid at all, and reprimanded angrily
"Brothers, Lord Lord is waiting for our rescue, we must not put Lord Lord in danger, kill with me, and kill all these officers and soldiers"
"We want to save the lord, and we will save the lord."
The many rogues behind him shouted, and they were about to rush forward in a frenzy, Qian Ruxue immediately stepped forward and slapped Zhao Dachun's head and scolded angrily
"What the hell are you nervous about, have you forgotten? Chen Zhang said that when you fight, you have to listen to my command."
Zhao Dachun opened his mouth and swallowed everything he wanted to say.
He had long been accustomed to rushing forward by himself, but he didn't admit that there was money beside him and said in a low voice
"But now that the officers and soldiers have attacked, do you still want to wait for the rabbit?"
"It's okay to wait for the rabbit, but don't forget what my Burning Phoenix Camp does"
After speaking, he waved his big hand
"The Liefeng Battalion stepped forward and set up a formation."
After speaking, the Liefeng Battalion, who had already held back their breath, quickly stepped forward, and they came to the center of the passage, set up a three-break formation, holding firearms, and waited for the battle.
Some of the women still had frightened looks on their faces, and even when they loaded the bullets, they were a little flustered, and they looked like a mess of porridge.
Faced with all this, Qian Ruxue's brows furrowed deeply, and she took a deep breath and shouted
"Calm down for me, don't forget your usual training, just follow the training time."
Under Qian Ruxue's reprimand, she finally picked up the muskets one by one, set up the formation, and faced the approaching officers and soldiers, Qian Ruxue waved her hand
"Shoot!"
In a split second
The 1st platoon fired.
The 2nd row fired.
The 3rd row fired.
After two rounds of firing, the smell of gunpowder filled the entire road in an instant, and it seemed that even the other party could not see clearly.
This is where the current disadvantage of the musketeers lies, once fired, the smoke formed by the inferior gunpowder almost covers all sides, which also makes it impossible for the musketeers to fire a second or even a third shot, and even if they shoot, they can't see the enemy clearly, they can only shoot with their own feelings, which can be said to be a waste of bullets.
"Retreat."
Qian Ruxue's face instantly turned pale, and with a wave of her big hand, she immediately retreated with the soldiers.
Zhao Dachun couldn't hold back and laughed
"Brothers, rush me"
After saying that, he immediately rushed forward.
The smell of gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, Qian Ruxue's face changed slightly, and only then did she find that the officers and soldiers in front of her had been knocked down, and I have to say that the three-stage shooting of the musketeers still had a great impact on the officers and soldiers. Zhao Dachun took the opportunity to rush out and kill in an instant, and for a while, both sides were fighting together, and even fought back and forth.
Qian Ruxue took a deep breath and shouted
"All the soldiers are ready to go, reload me with bullets and set up the formation."
