Shi Tingzhu didn't pay attention to the extreme flattery, but continued to dismount, and scolded in a low voice after getting down.

"Talk a lot, be honest, the guns on the other side are a powerful one, you all get off the horse, don't let the other side open the scoop ······"

Before he could finish his sentence, his words were interrupted by two crisp shots.

Moreover, in the midst of the rumbling artillery, there was a crackling sound on the flanks in front of the team, and several pieces of iron helmets, armor pieces, and even waist knives and bird guns were constantly splashed over the crowd.

Immediately afterward, there was a miserable wail from the place where the movement had come from.

The Goshha, who had flattered Shi Tingzhu before, was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "My mother! At the shout, he rolled over and jumped off the horse.

At this moment, in the infantry array of the Huaxia Army opposite, a lieutenant officer frowned and looked at the telescope in his hand that was accidentally shattered by a stray bullet, and sighed.

A slightly younger officer next to him heard his voice, but he didn't turn around, still staring at the Houjin army opposite, and asked casually, "Brother, what's wrong?" What are you sighing for? ”

"The telescope is broken."

The young officer said disapprovingly, "What's wrong with this telescope?" It's a big deal that after the end of this war, won't it be over when you go to the logistics side to report the damage and replace it! Could it be that those guys in logistics saw that you were demoted, and they dared to make things difficult for you? ”

"I can't take it, the rules and regulations in our army are strict, they don't dare to play like this, I sigh because this telescope is a souvenir given to me by my teacher who taught martial arts, but I didn't expect it to be damaged by a stray bullet today."

"Uh, souvenirs? That's ······ really." The young officer didn't know how to speak.

The lieutenant is also open-minded, and after feeling a little nostalgic, he immediately cleaned up his mood, "Forget it, it's been so long, and the telescope has long been upgraded."

This thing has also blocked a stray bullet, which can be regarded as a contribution, so let's repair it in the future. ”

After saying that, the lieutenant looked around and found that the officers of the various companies were observing the enemy situation with the binoculars in their hands, and it was difficult for him to borrow them.

When he glanced around, suddenly, he saw that there was something different on the side of the infantry artillery position.

The commander there has an artillery mirror to observe the enemy situation and calculate data, so the telescope issued by the artillery commander is still hanging on the opponent's waist.

The lieutenant ran over excitedly, "Comrade, lend me your telescope!" ”

The artillery officer was busy leading four infantry guns to bombard the Houjin army opposite, and he didn't have time to speak, so he casually untied the telescope box and handed it to the lieutenant.

Ask the artilleryman to borrow a telescope, and the lieutenant has a good vision and can easily observe the enemy's detailed state.

This is a terrible look, he found that in his eyes, all of them were behind the Houjin muskets with firearms, which was completely different from the Houjin army he had seen before.

He was startled at first, thinking that the Houjin Army was also equipped with rapid-fire rifles with a rate of fire similar to his own, otherwise how could he dare to put on such an all-firearms troop formation!

But after careful observation, he found that the formation on the opposite side, as well as the fire rope wrapped around his body, all showed that the Houjin Army was still equipped with a fire bolt based on the fire arquebus firing device.

The lieutenant, who breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, gasped and scolded in a low voice: "Houjin Tartar, is this doing death?" How can there be all the birds on the front? And a bunch of enemies on the west side, how can they be so similar to the spear formation of our army a few years ago? ”

Cursing and raising the telescope again, his company was placed on the west side of the array, opposite the virtuous Tianyou Army. It is also in the process of pulling the front apart.

Looking at the enemy's appearance, he should be preparing to outflank him from the flank, and then looking at the more than 1,000 people in the front, less than 2,000 birds, he felt that the pressure on his body was much greater than that of the company close to the Fuzhou River.

During the time he was observing the enemy's situation, the artillerymen fired two more volleys, and the lieutenant did not have time to see the effect of the artillery bombardment, nor did he have time to applaud the wonderful performance of his artillery comrades, so he hurriedly rode his horse back to the rear.

discussed a few words with the commander of his own cavalry battalion, and pointed in the direction of the Houjin army from time to time. The cavalry battalion commander thought for a moment, then smiled and nodded to the lieutenant.

The lieutenant hurried back to the front row again, called the company deputy who was in charge of commanding the special service platoon of the cavalry battalion, and asked, "How many people are there in your platoon?" ”

"Aside from casualties, there are 28 that can be killed immediately, and if there is a difficult task, counting the minor injuries, 34 can be made."

When the lieutenant heard these two different sets of numbers, he suddenly felt a heartache, this number represented the battle just now, the most elite platoon in this battalion, at least 22 veteran non-commissioned officers.

Although six of the 22 casualties were slightly wounded and could have recovered quickly, and a few seriously wounded could have survived.

But even so, the death toll of more than 10 people is still a great loss for this small elite force. It was also a heavy loss for the cavalry battalion.

The heart was sad, but the lieutenant's face could not show such emotion, because he knew that now was not the time to grieve, the enemy had not been destroyed, and his comrades were not yet safe.

The lieutenant, who had no expression on his face at all, gave the order to the company commander of the special service platoon.

"The Houjin infantry on the opposite side are almost all musketeers, and they are outnumbered, so it would not be a good thing for us to let the enemy get close to our army's line and fire a salvo between the two sides.

The special service company of the brigade headquarters needed to guard against the enemy's cavalry raid, and the special service platoon of the cavalry battalion was ready to deal with the black flag soldiers. Now our company will deal with the Houjin army on the west side that is lined up in a phalanx.

You go forward about 100 meters in a skirmish formation, and after a volley of fire, take cover freely and fire freely at the enemy. This is to probe the quality of the Jin army on the opposite side and see what their salvo level is.

If the enemy rushes straight at you, then you retreat.

If they don't charge, you will lie there, hiding behind cover and shooting at the Houjin army.

In short, your mission is to harass the enemy like a skirmisher and shoot at the enemy under the premise of ensuring safety. ”

"Yes." The commander of the special service platoon has no superfluous words at all, and the special service platoon he leads, as the most flexible branch of the battalion, is always transferred from above to carry out various difficult tasks.

Although today's losses are really large, it makes him, the commander, very distressed and angry. However, the Huaxia Army has strict military discipline, and once the military order is officially issued, there is absolutely no room for bargaining.
