Chapter 149 Mutiny

Xiao Lin's rogue attack style made Sameer feel extremely toothache. In this forest, both sides can only rely on their legs, but the guards in Xiao Lin's hands are strong bodies trained by three well-balanced meals a day and rigorous training. The Hessian mercenaries are inferior in both endurance and speed. At first, he could get a little closer, but then he was completely in the middle of Xiao Lin's play. As long as you chase it, then Xiao Lin will just come out and shoot a few shots and leave, without delay at all.

And if you don't chase them, then they will come out and pick a place and stay still until they cooperate with their comrades in the frontal battlefield to break through the defense. The 1,000 Hessian mercenaries have not lost a single one, that is, their physical strength is about to be exhausted. Xiao Lin also took the soldiers to tease them, but when they were so tired that they couldn't even lift their guns, a reflexive assault ate the Hessian mercenaries directly. And the anxious Sameer and the leader of the thousand Hessian mercenaries did not find out about Xiao Lin's attempt.

What is Sameer doing? He's plugging the gap. I found that I had been in the midst of a frontal assault and Harassment from Xiao Lin's back, and when I first set it up, I didn't have to set up defensive facilities behind it because I didn't think it was necessary, causing everyone's backs to be unobstructed. Xiao Lin's shooting of the 500 people, there is no need to aim accurately at all, just shoot at the place where the people are gathered, and there will definitely be results. You said that if you keep hitting one place, it's a big deal to send some people to tear down the carriage and tear down the house to make a baffle, and the dead and injured can be accepted.

However, Xiao Lin had to change places with one shot, and he couldn't build defenses at all. You must know that the militia has never been a highly disciplined and high-morale army. I was able to muster up the courage before, but it was also because I was forced to die. The three Apache led a large army to press the border, and if they didn't fight, they would die. Sameer also commanded in a timely manner and did not allow the troops to suffer too many casualties. But now, six gaps have been opened in the defensive line, and the number of dead and wounded has reached more than 6,000, and the 40,000 army a month ago is now only more than 20,000 people left.

Because the militia was unreliable, and Sameer was unwilling to stop attacking, the Hessian mercenaries suffered even more casualties. There were 10,000 Hessian elites who survived on the British and French battlefields, and now there are less than 3,000. The frightened cavalrymen, when Xiao Lin and the others appeared behind, ran directly, and those commanders and generals were left behind. Xiao Lin didn't have enough manpower, so he let them go. As soon as Shawlin saw that the militia were showing signs of wavering, he temporarily handed over command to Sam, and he was ready to shout.

"Gentlemen, you have also seen that there is no possibility of victory for you, and do not cause any more unnecessary casualties. Surrender, we will treat our captives favorably, and we will not harm your lives. ”

"And you promise that?"

As soon as Xiao Lin shouted, some people were moved. The militiamen were meant to be a mixed bag, who would be willing to give their lives for the colony, and Charlie would not give any compensation to their relatives. Even, if they are lost, the life of the family will be even more miserable. Sameer didn't have any thoughts at all, the arrogant German soldier, after being washed by Shawlin so many times, his heart was already full of hatred for Shawlin.

The 7,000 dead and wounded comrades did not allow them to surrender to the enemy of life and death. Sameer yelled and tried to find out who had just asked Sholin a question, so frightened that the militiamen all shrank their heads and did not dare to say anything.

"You can ask your frontal warriors, many of whom were previously our captives. We didn't hurt them, we healed them. After that, whether you want to go home or stay with us, you can do so, and we'll pay you twenty pounds for the journey home. ”

"yes, that's how we used to be. ”

"Yes, yes!"

The horn in Xiao Lin's hand was powerful, and the sound was enough for most of the people around him to hear it clearly. The recruits of the company naturally began to cooperate with Xiao Lin, regardless of whether they were converted from captives before, they all said it as if it was a real thing. At this point, the militia was in an uproar, and they did not usually see the presence of the pound. This twenty pounds is not a small amount of money for them, enough to spend on their own journey home. One by one, the militia even slowed down the speed of shooting, and whispered to the people around them.

The three Apache were smart enough to pause the violent assault and give the militiamen enough time to think. When Sameer saw this scene, he became even more angry. He rushed to one of the most hotly discussed militia defensive lines and yelled at the militiamen.

"You eggless pirates, do you think the enemy will really let you go? ”

It is well known that the British started as pirates. It was only when Portugal and Spain were making their fortunes through the seas that the shipbuilding industry of the British officially entered a period of formal development. Because the technology could not catch up and there was not enough money, a magical profession was born, privateer pirates with royal authorization. Relying on the funds stolen by these people and invested in industry, British talents eventually rose. However, the British, who professed to be gentlemen, hated being called pirates the most.

This is the third time for Sameer, and the previous two times were due to the poor behavior of the militia and the slanderous messages circulating in the camp. The militia forces are weak-minded, so naturally it is not easy to get angry. Now in this situation, they just want to live, and they are scolded by Sameer again, and the mixture of anger and fear of death makes them emboldened. It's not good to lie on his stomach at the defensive line, a group of more than 30 people, gathered around, waiting for Sameer together, as if they were going to beat him up at any time.

Seeing that their commander was in danger, the Hessian mercenaries gathered hundreds of people at once, holding brown bass muskets at the thirty or so militiamen.

"What? What do you want to do? You still want to rebel, and one last warning to you, go back to your line of defense immediately, or you will all be convicted and shot directly." ”

"If you say treason, you treason, you Prussian mud monkey, what are you arrogant!"

"That's it, what are you arrogant!"

......

Sameer was completely enraged by the militiamen's answer, and immediately ordered the Hessian mercenaries to shoot. Although there were still some people who were still sane and did not shoot, most of them pulled the trigger on the reflex board at Sameer's orders. More than thirty militiamen, who died on the spot, did not survive a single one. Xiao Lin, who was peeping in the rear, was directly happy. This commander is also a talent, and when the army's morale is fluctuating, it is absolutely impossible to use force. As long as force is used, the likelihood of mutiny will increase several times.

Such a good opportunity, how could Xiao Lin let it go, took out that big speaker, and continued to shout.

"Gentlemen, these Prussians don't care about your lives at all, and they don't care if you die as long as they achieve their purpose. Are you willing to be the instruments of the Prussians? Consider that your children in your family who are waiting to be fed do not have a wife who has not yet been dressed in decent clothes. I promise that as long as you surrender, after ten days, you will be able to return to your hometown. There weren't many of these Prussians, so let's rebel against them. ”

......

Xiao Lin tried his best to bewitch the militiamen whose military morale had been shaken, and these militiamen who had lost their minds, as soon as they were teased by Xiao Lin, looked at Sameer with angry and suspicious eyes. When Sameer saw this, a cold sweat broke out on his back. His anger was immediately overwhelmed by fear and worry, and it was only then that he remembered what he had done stupidly. He secretly motioned for the Hessian mercenaries to move closer to him, and slowly backed away himself.

"What do you want to do, you know, I am your commander, do you want to listen to the enemy? You know, we have been fighting to the death before, and they can't be trusted. ”

Sameer's IQ recovered, and he finally said a human word. If this continues, then maybe these militias will be persuaded by him. However, his men were not as calm as he was. The Hessian mercenaries are not all veterans of a hundred battles, and if they are really composed like this, I am afraid that Prussia will have no strength to fight. Now the situation is very critical, and if one is not handled well, they will even die at the hands of their own people. All of them unconsciously put their fingers near the trigger, ready to shoot at any moment.

One of the destabilizing factors of front-loading guns is that there is no formal insurance. As long as there are gunpowder bullets in the gun, as long as the finger accidentally presses the trigger, it will shoot out. Shawlin had just put out his loudspeaker again, ready to debug it to continue to bewitch the British militiamen. "Zi!" sounded, the sound was very loud, and the battlefield also stopped shooting, and there was no sound, which suddenly frightened a Hessian mercenary into anger.

It didn't matter, and it hit one of the militiamen who was confronting them. This misfire shot was also really accurate, directly punching a hole in the militiaman's head and killing him on the spot. This time, the militia was completely blown up, and the brother of the militia who was killed also opened fire with a roar.

"Damn, these Prussians just don't want us to live, they just want us to plug the guns, don't listen to this nonsense, kill them, I'm going home. ”

A man who seemed to have quite a reputation among the militia stood up and shouted, and all the militia responded. Then, turning the muzzle of the gun, he opened fire on the Hessian mercenaries. Xiao Lin and all the soldiers of the escort team were stunned, the conscience of heaven and earth, he just wanted to stir up a relationship between the two sides, further reduce the morale of the enemy, so that the army's attack would be more rapid and effective. Unexpectedly, he actually directly let the enemy himself infighting, and seriously, it made the militia mutiny.
