Chapter 88 Never let one go
Two slaps, so that Clark and Bobby completely sobered up. However, even if this was the case, there was nothing they could do. The situation of cavalry being slaughtered still exists. The loss of thousands of infantry could not be made up for back. Poppy still wants to go crazy at the end, and enters the crazy situation again.
"Keep going, what about the last 1,000 people, give it to me, the enemy will be almost unable to hold on, and if you rush again, we will win." โ
When Clark heard Bobby's words, he couldn't hide the anger in his heart, and rushed up to grab the collar and slap him three times.
"Fool, are you waking up, we failed, we failed!!"
What is the current state of Bobby and Clark, Shoren doesn't care. Xiao Lin only knew that the time he had been waiting for had finally arrived. The number of fighters capable of fighting in the enemy was already less than four thousand people, and it was not enough to pose much of a threat to the convoy. It's time to get rid of these and take one or two more towns. The trumpeter was called to Shawlin's side, ready to blow the trumpet at any moment. Shawlin also wanted to wait for the cavalry unit to completely lose its combat effectiveness before letting the trumpeter move.
However, Clark had already begun to pull Bobby and escape. The remaining thousand musketeers, driven by carriages and with all the people and things they could take with them, were ready to leave the city at any moment. It's a good thing that Logan kept staring there, otherwise they would have been mixed up and left. Seeing that the final result of the battle was actually about to escape, how could Xiao Lin give up and immediately let the trumpeter blow the trumpet.
At the top of Xiaoqingshan, a young Indian figure appeared here. He held up a golden cornet and blew the trumpet of victory.
"Dididi...... Didi"
"Rush!"
"Kill!"
Xiao Lin used to think that this kind of slogan was really silly to shout. Killing people, silence is enough, why bother with this. However, now that he heard these words, Xiao Lin didn't have that feeling, but just hoped that this kind of roar would be louder and more enthusiastic. Just because, in front of these roaring warriors, there are enemies who are powerless to fall. The few cavalrymen and musketeers who were left could not withstand such a charge.
Why was the weak Dongying able to defeat the powerful Tsarist Russia with the Banzai charge, in addition to many factors, the kind of oppression brought by this charge to the enemy was really enough to completely erase their resistance to the enemy. The convoy doesn't plan to kill them all, and they may be able to work together in the future. As long as you throw away your weapon and raise your hands in surrender, you will not be attacked.
A few frightened lobster soldiers did this first, survived, and then a chain reaction ensued, and the enemies on the battlefield surrendered in pieces. Of course, Clark and the others also saw this situation, and they also gave up the things they couldn't take with them, and started to set off directly. There were still enough wagons in the camp, and if you were fast enough, you might be able to get away. At the critical moment, Xiao Lin was ruthless, using a loudspeaker to make everyone surrender immediately, and while talking, he also used a submachine gun to strafe the lobster soldiers who were still fleeing.
The people were so shocked that they didn't dare to run around anymore, and slowly threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground. The convoy finally had access to pursue the fleeing enemies. Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, thinking that the bicycle would be useless in this battle, so he didn't bring it with him. If you want to pursue the enemy, you can only rely on the No. 11 bus. Not to mention, I chased a lot of people. Almost half of the carriages behind failed to escape.
Of the more than 2,000 horses who fled together, only half of them escaped. Five hundred musketeers and five hundred wounded soldiers fell into the hands of the pursuing convoy soldiers. When they were caught, these whites did not resist and surrendered honestly. For the rest, the soldiers really can't chase, a big battle, a pursuit of thousands of meters, has exhausted their vitality. In desperation, Xiao Lin could only watch them flee.
However, Xiao Lin is not going to be in such a position of being beaten all the time. He chose a place and decided to take it completely this time. It's still a small town, but it's in the hands of the Addams family, and it's all the places that are exposed, and there is no barrier between it and the Yanhuang town. The reason why he chose this place was that Sholin did not want to completely anger the British for the time being, the situation in the colony was complicated, as long as he did not offend everyone or attract the attention of the British mainland, it would not attract the siege of the entire colony.
The town also has no official name, just Deer Valley Town, which was originally inhabited by a group of Indians. It is said that there were many wild elk in the vicinity, and they were able to provide not only enough meat but also valuable items such as antlers and skins. But then, the whites took over, and the elk were either killed or forced to move. Legend has it that in the middle of the night, the whining of elk can be heard.
It's a white man's sin again, Xiao Lin shook his head speechlessly. It also took more than two weeks to walk before Xiao Lin took the first, second and third battalions to the outside of Lugu Town. The prisoners and the safety of the town were handed over to the fourth, fifth and sixth battalions. With the addition of more than a hundred policemen, the strength is quite enough.
Shawlin attacked this town, and he didn't think about sneaking around, he just wanted to tell others that he was coming for the Addams family. And seeing the soldiers of the escort team, the town of Deer Valley also shrank its defense, and the wooden walls were full of white soldiers who were trembling and looking outside. Never feel that the white army is invincible, because when it comes to the strong, they are more intimidated than anyone else. But it should not be considered that the white army is weak, and they can summon unlimited courage in defending their homeland.
Except for the soldiers stationed here in the colony's general office, the militia of the town, although nervous, was not afraid. A few acquaintances are still cheering each other on. But Mayor Asma doesn't want a real fight. Xiao Lin only saw that a fat white man, who was even more exaggerated than the original Babu, staggered onto the wooden wall. He poked his head out tremblingly and spoke in a ridiculous tone.
"I don't know which hero is out there, why do you want to make such a big move, this town doesn't seem to have provoked you. โ
As soon as the fat man's voice fell, the entire escort team burst into laughter. Xiao Lin was originally a very serious and cold face, and it was also because of his broken skills. After laughing out loud, Xiao Lin could only follow his words.
"How do you know you're not messing with us. I'll just ask you, are you from the Addams family?"
"This, yes. โ
"So isn't this town run by the Addams family?"
"Well, that's too. โ
"That's right, Lao Tzu, I specifically look for trouble with the Addams family, and the rest of the people surrender to avoid death. โ
"Could it be that you are the Yanhuang Trading Company?"
"Yo, your brain isn't stupid, so you can guess it. โ
"You dare to appear here, aren't you afraid that our family's army will sweep away your base?"
As soon as these words came out, the guards laughed again. Feeling these people, they don't know that the army led by Clark Poopy has been wiped out by the convoy. Xiao Lin adjusted his tone and did not smile with him.
"Don't worry, those people won't come to your rescue. Believe it or not, they were all captured. Fire. โ
In the last two words, Xiao Lin was given to the soldiers of the artillery unit. The heavy cannon was erected, and the artillerymen began to wield their might. The fifteen heavy punches here were loaded with solid cannonballs almost at the same time, and then shot out at the same time, and then hit the wooden walls of the town at the same time. There weren't many bells and whistles, and the wooden walls collapsed in several places. The unfortunate soldiers, under this impact, may not even be able to keep their bodies intact.
The powerful artillery bombardment also frightened the fat mayor and the militia. An experienced soldier shouted the words "Eighteen-pounder cannon", which made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom. Eighteen-pounder cannon, how can such an ordinary town be able to stop it. The soldiers in several corners actually chose to secretly retreat at this time, and also took off their military uniforms and threw away their weapons. Everyone said that they were specifically here to trouble the Addams family, so why should they keep it as cannon fodder.
After four shellings, the wooden wall had caved enough to open the gap, and the convoy fighters began to cooperate with each other to attack the town. The soldiers who resisted had no fighting spirit, and the soldiers of the convoy came with the might of a great victory of 1 to 6. The entire siege battle, without any suspense, after three hours, the soldiers of the escort team controlled the situation of the entire town.
The fat mayor didn't have much loyalty to the Addams family either. Like Bรกb, he was an opportunistic man who wanted to cool off against a tree. However, his luck was not as good as that of Babu. At the last moment, when he was packing up and fleeing, his own soldiers, whom he thought were close to him, betrayed him. He shot a black gun in the back, and then fled by himself with money.
And the soldiers and civilians who were unable to escape could only wait for their fate with anxiety. Xiao Lin also strictly restrained the soldiers, this time it was not a loot, but an occupation, which one could not control himself, so he could only let him take care of it. The notice of peace of mind, coupled with the report of a few tax cuts, gradually settled down. The Yanhuang trade industry was also prepared, and other departments and officials also began to slowly enter the town after two days.
The efficiency of the management team of Yanhuang Company, which imitates the government model of the 21st century, is not comparable to that of the previous city lord and mayor. Within a week, production began to resume. Xiao Lin is also ready to go back, there are a lot of things in the 21st century, and after a few days, he should go back and take a look. Unexpectedly, this time, he really caught up with a battle that he had always wanted to be more technological. But that's all for later. With Yu Wei and her mother Zhang Yaling taking care of her, Xiao Lin is also very relieved.
