Chapter 52: Attacking the Village

In the archway of East Street in Xinjiang Town, the wooden door was bolted from the town, and it was difficult to open it from the outside.

The rebels originally had a lot of troops, but yesterday they had several short battles with the Wuduan army, with heavy casualties and many deserters. Just shot with a hard bow from the roof, and was beaten by Chen Mu's bird's hand and didn't know where to escape.

The biggest remaining problem is how to pass through the wooden gate that is based on the torii.

"Blow open this cock door!"

Destroying the city and attacking the fortifications, Deng Zilong, who participated in the battle of the southeast Pingyu, was much more experienced than Bai Yuanjie, and let people hollow out a wooden stake, and tied it with more than a dozen wooden sticks outside the door to stand diagonally outside the door for more than a dozen steps, and received dozens of catties of gunpowder from more than a dozen of his subordinates, and put them into large stones to form a simple mortar cannon. An angry curse ignited the fuse, and a moment later there was an explosion - the wooden door of the archway and the wooden mortar cannon were all shattered into sawdust.

Chen Mu only felt that the battalion soldiers were really rich!

When Chen Zongqi was still complacent because he was carrying fifty small wooden cylinders, Deng Zilong's battalion soldiers each carried three catties of gunpowder and one hundred and fifty lead pellets before going to battle.

As soon as the rebels saw them blow up the wooden door at the entrance of the street, they dropped their weapons and fled, shouting loudly: "The Ming army has entered the town!" ”

"The Ming army is coming, run!"

"Tell the front army, it's surrounded!"

Everywhere the chickens flew and the dogs jumped, Chen Mu led the flag army and the township Yong to check the town door to door, beware of the ambush. Although neither Deng Zilong nor Bai Yuanjie seemed to have such a warning in his heart, he still thought about being careful, after all, he was dealing with thousands of enemy troops, and once he made a mistake, he would have to pay the price of human life.

Later, he learned that this was not because Deng Zilong and Bai Yuanjie were careless, but because their judgment was stronger than Chen Mu.

The rebels were really panicked, and they lost their armor all over the ground, and some people even knelt on the ground and begged for mercy when the battalion was about to catch up with them, and in the blink of an eye, Xinjiang Town was declared broken.

The Ming army entered and exited from East Street and West Street in Xinjiang Town, raised their eyebrows, collected and surrendered more than 200 rebel troops, and also captured more than a dozen war horses that the rebels did not have time to take away.

Rushing out of Xinjiang Town, Deng Zilong and Bai Yuanjie joined forces, with more than 1,000 troops, and sent scouts to ride westward, but after a while, they returned to the situation and said: "Wu Duan has retreated for ten miles, reorganized the defense line, and more than 1,000 enemy troops occupy the camp!" ”

At this time, even Chen Mu could see that the offensive and defensive situation was easy!

At this time, because Bai Yuanjie had previously released the herald sergeant to inform them to lead their troops to attack the rear of Xinjiang Town, they withdrew their troops by means of wanting to capture the old army, although they lost a camp, but through the valleys on both sides, the east and west of the two parts of more than 1,000 soldiers and horses surrounded all the remaining rebels in Xinjiang Town in the camp that Wu Duanbu had set up before.

"Stubbornness, does it make sense?"

Chen Mu led the Xiangyong Banner Army to surround the southwest corner of the camp, and commanded the Xiangyong to set up a wooden card in front of the formation, providing shooting cover for more than a dozen birdmen, and a barb was pierced around the spear to prevent the enemy from charging.

However, this time it was not Chen Mu's turn to fire the cannons, he was supervising his subordinates to shoot accurately at the rebels who were shooting arrows on the wall of the camp behind the wooden bunker, and the two sides were full of arrows, and the wooden cards in front of him continued to emit the sound of 'do-do' arrows, as if in the field of vision of the rebel crossbowmen, they were the number one target of the rain of arrows.

"Watch out for the arrows, let them go!"

Bang! Bang bang!

Although he had only participated in the war three times, Chen Mu had already noticed a reality that he had not considered before, firearms were not invincible. In the past, he knew a little about the Ming Dynasty, and even stubbornly thought in his inherent memory that since the Ming Dynasty had bird guns and artillery, why didn't the whole army be equipped with bird guns and artillery, so could it still be defeated by the Jurchens?

In fact, if the people of the Ming Dynasty really resembled this idea, they would definitely be defeated.

Accurate shooting is important, as is artillery with heavy damage, but these two alone are not enough to win the war.

Chen Mu's Shiqi's Bird Gun team won a lot in the battle in Xinjiangzhen, with an average of three lead pellets killing and injuring an enemy, and the longbow banner shooting five arrows may not be able to hit an enemy, not to mention that even if it hits, the longbow may not make the enemy lose its combat power.

However, the rate of fire of the Bird Gun is too low, and the Bird Gun team shoots a round, and the longbowmen have already thrown out four or five arrows, which cannot hit the enemy, but also makes the enemy timid, and brings an opportunity for the Bird Gun team.

Rumble! Rumble!

Two cannon sounds, one side of the camp was blasted out of the gap by the huge momentum of the cannonball, and the rebels who were trapped in the beast still fighting rushed out from the gap with a long knife to drive the spear, and then were shot into a sieve by the rain of longbows and arrows, and then the two Francophone cannons roared again, crushing out a bloody road, Deng Zilong raised his knife and shouted: "Those who descend will not be killed!" ”

The battalion soldiers shouted: "Those who descend will not be killed, those who surrender will not be killed!" ”

The huge roar shook the battlefield, suppressed the tragic cry in the camp, the rebels on the wall of the wall retreated like a tide, not long after, there were more than ten days of bare-handed self-camp gap out, hand carried a few heads into the Ming army array, and then entered the camp to convey the news of the Ming army's surrender, the silent battlefield can hear a clanging sound in the camp, hundreds of people dropped their weapons and slowly walked out of the camp.

"Long live my emperor!"

I don't know where the battalion soldiers shouted such a voice first, and then the thousands of Ming troops in the entire Xinjiang Town sang Long live the emperor like a tsunami, everyone raised their weapons above their heads, and some even danced.

Chen Mu had no time to join in this grand carnival belonging to the Ming people, as if he had become the back that had been omitted, took off the iron helmet and pulled out the crossbow bolt embedded in the helmet and threw it aside, sat down slowly according to the wooden card, squinted his eyes at the dazzling sunlight in the air, and let out a long breath.

His back was soaking wet, and he just wanted to wait for the battle to finish and find a place to wash well.

Shao Tingda came over and counted how many lives he had taken under the knife in this battle, and he also pulled the opening on his left arm that was cut by the rebels and frowned: "Brother Mu, look at the stupid cock of Bai Qianhu's subordinates who gave me a bag, what kind of thing is this!" With such a big opening, Grandpa Shao will have to ask Dr. Cheng to get two stitches when he goes back! ”

No one is more active than Wei Balang, as if he remembers that Heiling was slapped by Bai Yuanjie last time because Chen Mu was injured and didn't catch up, this kid held a Japanese knife in one hand and the washed linen cloth in his arms in the other, and circled around Chen Mu several times, and then said with a little disappointment: "Oh, why didn't Zongqi get hurt!" ”

It's like losing a lot of opportunity to please Chen Mu.

Why didn't the rebels hack this dead kid to death!

Xinjiang Town, erected the Ming Army's dragon red sun flag.

Concentrate:

1. The red sun flag with the dragon is only a kind of military flag of the Ming army, which comes from the Ming Dynasty painter Qiu Ying's "Picture Scroll of the Japanese Invaders", which is also the southern army, and the ritual system is generally similar.

2. Explode this dick door - the original words are 'step open this dick door' from the Yuan song "Li Sulan Fengyue Jade Pot Spring"
