Chapter 421: Into the Flesh
Seeing that it was less than 20 meters away from the opposite riverbank, there was still no movement on the opposite side.
The kidnapper was also a veteran, and when he saw the appearance of the enemy, he knew that the enemy was waiting for the first few rows of people on his side to come ashore, and was ready to besiege his group in the narrow part of the crossing point.
Half-crossing, at any time, is a tactic that everyone knows well.
However, he had no other choice at this point.
Not only before the official operation, an order was conveyed to seize the ferry as quickly as possible and ensure the passage of large forces.
Less than an hour earlier, the herald of the battalion headquarters once again conveyed to them the order of the superiors, that is, to seize the ferry as quickly as possible.
It's because the location of the ferry in front of you is too important, otherwise, there would be no need to use their scouts and intelligence department's armed reconnaissance teams to come up and fight the enemy like this.
If this task is not important, it is completely possible to wait until the cavalry battalion, mounted infantry battalion and other large troops who are good at positional warfare catch up before acting.
However, to be honest, for the brigade headquarters to be able to be the first to think of their reconnaissance battalion at such a most important moment, the abduction is honored.
In the Chinese army, which advocates discipline, honor, and collectivity, this is really a special honor.
At this time, with a sudden shout from the Houjin army, the soldiers holding shields in the Houjin army scattered out and put on a slightly looser formation and rushed towards the direction of the Huaxia army.
The riverbed where they are now is a little lower than the shore, and the gaze will unconsciously look a little down.
Therefore, the crutch could only see that in a dense formation opposite, pieces of human legs wearing different styles of shoes and boots were shaking in the gap below that the shield could not cover.
The crutch pulled the hammer to the position where it was to be fired, and ordered loudly, "Keep the muzzle of the gun low, and don't rush to the shore, and shoot a few shots first." ”
After hearing the order, the shield bearers standing in the front row pulled the trigger at the same time, and in the roar of the revolver, the crowd composed of the Jin army behind the opposite side burst into bloody legs.
Several of Houjin's shield soldiers abandoned their shields with screams, and fell to the ground with their injured legs in their arms, wailing incessantly.
The Houjin army behind continued to roar, and continued to rush over with a fierce face, wanting to fight with the Huaxia army, so that the Huaxia army's pistols behind could not shoot.
Looking at their appearance, it seems that they do not recognize the revolver.
The crutch smiled darkly, continued to pull the hammer to the position to be fired, and then immediately pulled the trigger.
This is not the case with single-action revolvers, which must be manually reloaded and loaded.
In total, I only had to pull the hammer once, but I wasted about a second just over a second.
Fortunately, because the Houjin army blocked the news of Huaxia from the upper level, none of these soldiers at the bottom had ever seen a revolver.
Therefore, after 1 second, the second lead bullet fired from the same barrel gave the soldiers of the Houjin Army a great shock.
There are veterans of the Hadaming army who have been fighting for many years, and when they thought of the three-eyed gun, they were a little settled in their hearts.
Under the leadership of the veterans, the Houjin army continued to charge, but this time, the enemy cowered a little, and the speed of the charge was affected to a certain extent.
The kidnapper was about to scream with excitement, and while continuing his previous movements, he shouted in his heart, "Thank God!" ”
As I mentioned before, this revolver is still only in single-action mode, and with each shot, you have to manually pull the hammer to make the revolver jump into the chamber with bullets in the next square, and at the same time, continue to power the ram wheel that fires the flint.
This takes at least 1 second, and one second is enough for an unburdened person to run a distance of about 7 meters.
Even if the Houjin army wears this equipment and holds a shield, its speed is affected, and it will not be too slow, after all, at this moment, it is playing with a desperate charge.
However, because of the enemy's hesitation at that moment, the speed slowed down a little, and it bought the Huaxia army an extra 1 or 2 seconds, how could this make the kidnappers not excited.
However, good fortune will always pass, and war ultimately depends on hard power.
At the end of the third round, the enemy finally rushed over. The two sides are about to collide head-on.
"Hold on!" The crutch easily inserted the pistol back into the holster at his waist, then grabbed the handle of the knife stuck on the shield knife holder, and with a slight lift, he quickly took out the saber.
The dozen or so soldiers of the armed reconnaissance team of the Huaxia Army in the first row also shouted "tiger" in unison and moved violently, and in an instant, the shields of the two sides hedged against each other.
"Bang, bang······" The sound of collision kept coming, and both sides were slamming into each other with their shields, trying to find each other's loopholes, and constantly brandishing their sabers to slash each other.
The narrow small crossing was crowded with people from both sides of the river, flesh and blood flying in a cloud of swords and swords, and sparks continued to explode from weapons, armor, and helmets.
After the first platoon engaged each other, the soldiers of the Huaxia Army in the back rows also worked hard to speed up their pace, preparing to merge into the front combat field to help their comrades fight.
Although the abductor is called a crutch, his body is not disabled, and his nickname is the nickname he used when he went up to the mountains to be a bandit before joining the army.
After joining the army, because of the action of his former companions, the old name was called.
In fact, he himself is a member of the stronger echelon in the army.
Because of his excellent physical fitness, the crutches had a certain advantage in the first round of impact.
Although he was pushed back by the opponent by taking advantage of the geographical advantage under the disadvantageous terrain of the enemy's high and low position, his steps were not chaotic, and the position of the shield was also relatively good.
On the contrary, the Hou Jin Jun on the opposite side, the shield in his hand suddenly tilted when it hit, revealing a small half of the figure with chain mail and vertical fish skin strips.
The kidnapper didn't have time to look at the face of the Houjin soldier, and after subconsciously using his shield against the opponent's shield according to the habit he had developed during his usual training, his right hand suddenly reached out and stabbed in the direction of the figure.
The saber made by the ordnance factory did not live up to the trust of the abductor, and the sharp blade was like cutting butter, instantly breaking through the chain mail worn by the other party, and stabbing into the left side of the chest of the raw girl.
It's just that the chain mail still plays a certain protective role, and the way the crutches exert their force is also a little problematic, so, in the end, the saber still doesn't go deep into the flesh.
The kidnapper knew in his heart that he was going to suffer, and immediately made countermeasures and prepared to defend and counterattack.
