Chapter 66 outnumbered
In fact, we can't blame the subordinates of the Xingtian Army for underestimating these mountain thieves. In this era, not only they are they, but also large volunteers such as Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are not much better than them. In addition to the core thousands of elite soldiers under their command, the rest are also such mobs. When fighting, With a breath, there is no such thing as formation or tactics at all. Often a battle is a swarm of bees driven forward. If you can win, you can fight down. If you can't win, you will lose thousands of miles, and a swarm of bees will escape. The way of rushing like Yidougu today can be said to be the collective style of pulling the pole.
Before Xing Tianjun became an army, Xiao Tianjian attached great importance to the training of soldiers. Every time he went into battle, he fought in a battle. Such a situation would never happen. All those who joined the army had to receive all kinds of basic training, which was also the key to Xing Tianjun's repeated victories over the years.
Liu Yao sat on the horse and looked at the crowd of black thieves who rushed up. He also shook his head. It seemed that these bastards were very fierce, but he knew very well how capable the group was, so he laughed a few times in the battle, and then pointed to the men who were fighting with a knife and smiled at the generals: "Haha... This rag soldier also wants to defeat us! I'm too lazy to fight with them! The brothers were firm, and the fireman opened fire from a hundred steps. I don't believe they can rush over! Destroy them for me!"
The soldiers have already let go of the tension in their hearts and replied with a smile, "Yes! ......”
Seeing that these Yidougu's men began to rush to a hundred steps before the battle, the firemen, under the command of the officers, immediately began to fire in two positions.
Although Baibu is a little far away from Xing Tianjun's self-fire, and has basically reached their target and launch limit, it is enough to deal with such a group of dense group of hedges and rushing together to cause effective casualties. As long as there is no problem in the general direction, basically It can guarantee that the bullets will not be empty.
After hearing a series of roars in the Xingtian army, and looking at the soldiers of Yidougu, there were a lot of people who shouted that they had lost their weapons in their hands and hit the ground. Without waiting for them to scream a few more, they were immediately trampled on by the people who came from behind.
Yidougu took one or two hundred of his closest subordinates, and he was not idle in the back. Instead, he held knives and guns together, closely following the team, and almost forced the people in front of him to rush forward with the tip of the knife. A little person wanted to stop because of timidity, and he was immediately hit to the ground by him and his cronies and expelled them. Press forward.
Yidou Valley was very clear about the sharpness of Xing Tianjun's firearms, so he was reluctant to press his close men to death, so he expelled the exiles who depended on him in front of him, intending to fill in in front of the Xing Tianjun array with their lives, and then he would fight hard with the soldiers of the Xingtian Army.
Although he also knows that his combat effectiveness is not good, after all, he has an absolute advantage in number of people. In his opinion, so many people can also crush them to death. As long as they are crushed, there will not be many defenders in Yongning County. At that time, he can easily seize the county seat, okay. It's good to make a fortune. As for the death of hundreds and thousands of people, it's nothing for him. At present, Henan is full of refugees. As long as there is money and food, it won't be a problem to pull up tens of thousands of people.
Seeing the brothers around him being knocked to the ground one after another by the fire of Xing Tianjun, some guys finally began to be afraid. Some people wanted to stop and squeeze back to avoid such a terrible firearm, but the people behind pushed them desperately. Don't let them squeeze into the crowd. No one wants to be the first to die in front, so whoever is in front is bad-life. They deserve to die.
There are also some leaders in the crowd. These leaders are also understanding people, roaring in the crowd: "Go forward quickly! They can't do anything about it before they get close to them! Don't stop, you can only wait to die! Hurry up! Hurry up!"
Under the urging and coercion of Yidou Valley and his leaders, although these guys were scared to fight for two battles, they could not turn around and escape. You can only push me and continue to be driven towards the Xingtian Army's army.
When he saw such a situation, Liu Yaoben began to gradually put away the contemptuous expression on his face. He was very clear about the power of these self-fired fires in his hand. Almost every row of guns were hit, and the other party would fall down more than a dozen or twenty people. Originally, he thought that according to common sense, after several rows were released, these rabbles They should have dispersed by themselves, but I didn't think that today's gang of gangs of valleys actually showed great tolerance. Even if they suffered continuous casualties, they still did not disperse and continued to wrap up in a group and force them step by step.
Liu Yaoben has begun to realize what Yidougu wants to do now, so he secretly scolded, 'Damn, Yidougu is going to fill it with his life with his hands until the front of Laozi's battle! Humph! You son of a bitch, I'm afraid it's a big mistake this time! Let's see how many people you can kill!'
Although Liu Yaoben and his young officers are not very old, orphans like them who live in troubled times have long been used to such killing. From their experience, they understand that if they want to live in this troubled world, they are not afraid of death. Therefore, in order to survive, they sometimes have to be cold-hearted. Although they also know that most of the people in front of them are trapped, as long as they have not put down their weapons, they are still their own enemies, and they can't have any pity on the enemy.
So Liu Yaoben was ruthless and roared, "Speed up the loading speed and see how long they can last!"
After hearing his order, the firemen accelerated the loading speed. They fought in rows and rows towards the soldiers of the opposite Valley, so that the opposite guys cried and cried, and fell in front of the front of them row by row.
With the closer distance, the shooting of Xingtian's gunshot was also much more fierce and accurate. The gunpowder smoke almost enveloped the Xing Tianjun's phalanx, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke, which made people couldn't help coughing. At this time, the fireman almost didn't have to aim much and shoot. For this The dense crowd has basically no failed projectiles.
But even so, driven by Yidou Valley, these guys still did not disperse. They continued to cry and were squeezed forward step by step, so that gradually some guys were a little numb, and their faces were like dead people, and they stumbled forward numbly. As for the lower Waiting for their fate, at this time, they were unable to think. They could only move forward mechanically until they were hit by the projectile before they screaming and fell to the ground, and then they were trampled on by the people behind them.
"Run ahead! Hurry up, it will be there soon! Beat them and let's go to the city and enjoy it!" A bucket of valley hiss roared behind the team.
Seeing that there were only 20 or 30 steps left, some archers hiding in the crowd finally began to fight back against the Xingtian Army. They raised the bows in their hands and shot into the air. A cluster of sparse rain of arrows fell into the phalanx of the Xing Tianjun, which also began to cause casualties of the Xingtian army.
Fortunately, there are few archers under Yidougu. Even if they are equipped with some bows, most of them are single bows. Like the compound bows used in the Ming army, they have very few, so although they counterattacked, this kind of counterattack is still very weak. The Xingtian army troops stood in the queue without any confusion, just Lower your head to avoid the key points of the face, and let these arrows fall on their bodies and hang on their armor. Even if they are injured, they are mostly minor injuries.
The men of Yidou Valley, who were hit in a hurry, saw that the two armies finally approached the distance of 20 steps. I don't know who made a shout. The people who had no way to go to the earth were squeezed out of the last bit of fierceness. Suddenly, they roared crazily and ran towards the Xing Tianjun's phalanx.
The officer who commanded the gunnery saw this situation and had to order a ceasefire and ordered the soldiers to immediately put on bayonets to prepare for the battle.
Hearing the order without saying a word, the fireman took out the bayonet from the waist belt and clicked on the mouth of the gun, and then pointed the gun at the oncoming thieves.
A row of long guns were flattened down, and the long gunmen in the team also roared in unison: "Kill..." Suddenly, a forest of guns was formed in front of the battle.
These guys, who have been almost driven crazy, waved the simple weapons in their hands, and rolled forward one by one. Although they had seen the long guns like a forest in front of them, the sharp tip of the gun pointed to their chests, and their hearts were full of infinite fear, but they could not He stopped and could only be pushed by the people behind him. He watched his chest getting closer and closer to the tip of these deadly guns. He shouted in horror in vain and waved the guys in his hands desperately to try to swing these long guns pointing at them.
But their action was just a futile struggle. They opened a long gun and more long guns. This crowd hit the forest of long guns so fiercely, and suddenly there was a tearing sound of the tip of the gun stinging into the human body, and then there was a shocking scream...
(How do these chapters look? If you think it's okay, just bother to reward the red ticket! Ha ha!)
