Volume 2 Chapter 28 is about to begin
On this night, the mountainous area centered on Zailong Gorge was noisy, and the swordsmen of Jieling appeared in front of the world for the first time.
The 200,000-strong army was turned upside down by just over 200 people, and a large number of officers died in the mountains and jungles of western Xiangxi.
The swordsmen of the Ridge were assassinated, or forcibly killed, or used poisonous smoke, or used tricks, in order to achieve their goals, they simply did everything.
Most of them were able to escape after completing their goals, and their familiarity with the mountains and forests was not at all comparable to that of these foreign warlords.
Their skills, the Qiu Ba couldn't even beat their horses, and in the dense forest, it was pitch black, and the soldiers didn't even know where to chase after them, so they had to shoot indiscriminately in the forest.
But it was not useless, there were a few unlucky unlucky swordsmen who were hit by stray bullets, and most of them survived, but were injured.
Only a few extremely unlucky ones were hit by stray bullets and died on the spot.
Those swordsmen who couldn't find an opportunity to assassinate, so they first extinguished the horse lantern, and then forcibly rushed into the tent to kill people, also because of the tacit cooperation and proper tactics, and the soldiers were afraid of injuring their own people in the dark night, so they did not dare to shoot indiscriminately, and they escaped after they succeeded.
While a large number of officers of the warlord's coalition army died, and the camp was in chaos, the Hunan army troops under Luo Lao's order, which had already received Luo Lao's order, took the opportunity to launch a full-scale counteroffensive.
A great battle was fought from early morning to dawn, and a small number of the invading warlords were annihilated, most of them surrendered with guns, and some fled in all directions.
The more unfortunate was the Dian army, which was the first to be attacked and the first to evacuate, and was not bitten by the Hunan army.
However, when he was about to withdraw from the mountains and forests and flee back to Guqi County, he bumped into Luo Lao's crooked tribe who had outflanked him from the area of Roy Creek in the south of Guqi County after joining up with the Jieling Warriors.
After an ambush battle, the Dian army completely collapsed, and all of them were disarmed by Luo Lao.
In the battle in the mountainous area of Guqi County, Luo Lao's crooked forces not only did not lose the slightest, but their strength skyrocketed.
After Luo Changfeng and his entourage completed their respective tasks, they still returned to Zalongxia to converge, two hundred and twenty-three people, more than ten people were broken, and more than 30 people were injured.
However, the casualties were basically second-generation swordsmen, and only one generation of swordsmen, in order to cover the escape of the apprentices, took the initiative to stay and break the back, and finally were shot by concentrated fire and beaten into a sieve.
Other generations of swordsmen did not suffer any damage by virtue of their superior light skills.
Luo Changfeng waited until all the twenty groups of swordsmen arrived, and didn't say anything, and went straight back to Xiangyin City with them, and didn't go to meet Luo Lao Crookedly again.
In the next period of time, he will be busy reorganizing his troops and regaining the territory occupied by foreign warlords.
Luo Changfeng didn't plan either, so he let the Xieling swordsmen mix in the frontal battlefield, so he went back to Xiangyin directly.
Luo Lao Crooked received a letter from a Hunan army commander before Luo Changfeng left, and knew that they had left.
Although Luo Lao Crooked felt regretful, because he couldn't see their methods with his own eyes, he also understood it very well, after all, in this frontal battlefield, the Jieling swordsmen didn't have much chance to play.
However, the existence of the Jieling swordsmen also spread widely through the mouths of the soldiers of the Hunan Army and the Jieling warriors.
And the more it spreads, the more mysterious it becomes, what adjectives such as flying eaves and walls, coming and going without a trace, and swordsmanship like a god emerge endlessly.
In just half a year, the name of the Xieling swordsman has spread all over the world, not only on the green forest road, but also widely spread in the martial arts and even among the major warlords.
Of course, some believe, some don't.
The reason for those who believe it is very simple, because except for the explanation of the Xieling Swordsman, they really can't figure out how Luo Lao Crooked came to a perfect counterattack when he was almost facing a desperate situation.
Those who do not believe are all kinds of analysis of the various possibilities of this war, but after all, this part of the people is a minority.
No matter how the outside world spreads, Luo Changfeng didn't care, although the Xieling swordsman had experienced a baptism of actual combat, the training still did not let go, and it was in full swing.
The strength of the second-generation swordsmen is getting stronger and stronger, and they are getting closer to the level of their predecessors.
Of course, as they progressed, a generation of swordsmen did not stop and their skills continued to grow, they ran faster, jumped higher, and their swordsmanship became more sophisticated......
As for the situation in Xiangyin City, Luo Changfeng said that there was a large influx of refugees.
One is Chen Yulou's move to open a warehouse and release grain, so that the world knows that as long as he arrives in Xiangyin City, he will have food.
Moreover, there are mysterious and unpredictable Xieling swordsmen in Xiangyin, which can protect them from war and allow them to have a place to settle down.
Because in the hearts of the world, there is a city where the swordsmen of Jieling are there, and no one can enter it.
After more than a year, there were more and more refugees, the Chen family's granary became increasingly empty, and more than half of the Wanguan family's wealth was consumed, all of which were used to buy food from all over the country.
According to the current situation, it can last for another year and a half at most, and the Chen family will be "defeated" by Chen Yulou.
This also made the old boss very angry recently, he thought that Chen Yulou was "pretending to be tall" and filling his head.
Now that it is a troubled time, for the common people, it is like the sky has fallen, and Chen Yulou is the guy who pretends to be tall and supports the sky.
In this period of more than a year, Luo Lao Crooked stabilized the situation in Xiangxi, and he planned to expand outward, first of all, he would take the adjacent Qianzhou and southern Yunnan, and then connect the entire southwest region into a piece, all of which became his territory, and he wanted to be the "king of the southwest".
But while Luo Lao's power has increased greatly, military expenses and food salaries have gradually tightened, and if he wants to expand, this little family fund in his hands is not enough.
So he wanted to buy a batch of advanced rifles made in England, and now his appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and he wants to be a blockbuster, and he plans to equip a "British armorer" at a time.
Luo Lao crookedly took a fancy to the Lee Enfield rifle produced by the British Royal Arsenal, this kind of gun is a magazine feed, a magazine capacity of ten rounds, both the shooting speed and the loading speed, are faster than ordinary rifles.
The Lee Enfield rifle has an allusion to the "one-minute madness", which refers to the fact that the Lee Enfield can fire thirty rounds of ammunition in one minute, and some can fire forty rounds per minute or more.
This rate of fire is very fast for a hand-held rifle that used to be shot and pulled, and it is a veritable fast gun.
But if you want to equip a British mechanic, it is impossible to do without money, so he hit the idea of digging a grave, and what he is eyeing is the long-legendary Yuan tomb in the Mengdong River Basin of Nuqing County.
Therefore, after sorting out all the affairs, he took the engineer digging battalion and his personal guard pistol team to Xiangyin.
When Luo Lao came crookedly, he took the official road, and when those refugees saw that there was an army marching towards Xiangyin, they couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that this Xiangyin is also going to war?
At present, many refugees have changed their routes on the way, but they have inadvertently relieved Chen Yulou of a lot of pressure.
