"Kill!"
The bandit Jin Lao Liu led a battalion of chaotic troops and rushed towards the side of the White Dragon Army.
Soon, they rushed to within a hundred paces of the first trench, and a standard-bearer on the side of the White Dragon Army immediately waved a small green flag behind them.
When Xu Wei saw it, he immediately pulled out the long knife on his waist and shouted, "Brothers, listen, fire the cannon!" ”
After several gunners listened to the order, they immediately pulled out the red-hot iron brazing from the charcoal basin behind them, and forcefully pestled it into the fire door placed in front of them, a door tiger squatting cannon and a furlong machine gun.
Immediately, several fires erupted from the muzzle of the cannon, and immediately several clouds of smoke rose up, and then the sound of the cannon reached everyone's ears.
A few iron bullets flew out with the naked eye, almost discernible to the naked eye, and flew in front of the roar.
The sudden sound of artillery startled the chaotic army that had already rushed over.
Jin Laoliu, who rushed up with the troops, immediately felt that the hairs all over his body stood up, and he immediately instinctively bent down and almost crawled to the ground.
As an old bandit soldier who followed Li Zicheng's rebellion all the way and can survive to this day, Jin Laoliu has faced many times before, the artillery bombardment of the official army.
He knew very well the power of the artillery of the officers and soldiers, and when facing the artillery of the officers and soldiers, the best way was to crawl to the ground.
But at this time, he couldn't crawl to the ground, otherwise the bandits around him would have no one to command, and it was worth squatting.
Puff puff......
Hundreds of tiger squat guns and furlong machines fired, and the dense projectiles covered the wide surface hundreds of meters ahead, and the first to be unlucky were those bandits who rushed to the front.
Iron pellets the size of grapes, not spewed out by artillery, hit the human body at a distance of 100 paces, for these bandits wearing tattered cotton armor, it was enough to kill him.
And the Furlong machine not only shoots scattered bullets, but each cannon can also shoot an iron bullet the size of a bowl, which bounces all the way down and plows a passage of flesh and blood.
Peng!
Jin Lao Liu fortunately did not rush to the front and was not shot, but he was hit by a bandit corpse smashed in front.
A ricocheting bullet smashed down from Jin Laoliu's side.
Jin Lao Liu looked at the bandit who fell on him, this bandit with only half of his body left, his face was pale, and he called luck in his heart.
On the side of the White Dragon Army alone, this artillery salvo directly swept away the hundreds of bandits who rushed to the front, and there must be at least one or two hundred people who died and fell to the ground who were injured and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, when these chaotic soldiers attacked, they formed a straggler formation, not the dense charge, who made them undisciplined, and they couldn't form a dense formation.
When they faced the scattered shelling, the casualties were not too heavy, and it can only be said that they were a blessing in disguise.
"Don't panic, their artillery can only shoot one round, hurry up, you don't need to give the officers and soldiers a chance to reload their ammunition, kill!"
Jin Laoliu pushed away the half of the corpse pressed on his body, and shouted loudly to the frightened rebels next to him.
I have to say that Jin Lao Liu is still very aware of the shortcomings of these Tiger Squat Cannons and Furlong cannons, and it takes too much time to reload, and this is their opportunity.
"Kill!"
Sure enough, after hearing Jin Laoliu's voice, the rebels who were originally a little flustered found their backbones, calmed down, and rushed up again.
"Brothers, hurry up and rush over to kill the officers and soldiers to receive the reward!"
Jin Lao Liu kept shouting loudly in the team, motivating his subordinates and making his subordinates rush over quickly.
In an instant, a cloud of smoke rose up, and several nine-headed birds jumped violently, spitting out clouds of smoke.
"Da Zhuang, the next thing is up to your musket battalion, first put in three hundred musketeers, don't let all the musketeers open fire at once, and scare away these rebels.
Wait until these rebels have rushed to thirty paces, and then let all the musketeers under your command open fire, so that we can eat this rebel in one go. ”
Xu Wei smiled and said to Sun Dazhuang in front of him.
"Yes, General Xu, you can see it, lure the enemy deeper! I understand! ”
Sun Dazhuang looked excited, and walked along the trench to the first trench tunnel, in this tunnel, at this time, there were thousands of meters of musketeers from the White Dragon Army.
"Wei Lin, take your three teams, fire freely first, and the others are ready, waiting for my orders."
Sun Dazhuang commanded at a team general.
"Yes."
The flag general bent down on time and ran to his subordinate position, and immediately gave orders to his more than 300 musketeers.
The impatient musketeers, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately stood up, lowered their flint guns to the edge of the tunnel, and opened fire at the rebels who rushed up below.
Bang bang bang......
A series of sparse gunshots rang out, and a projectile was like a whip, pumping towards the chaotic soldiers who rushed up.
I could only hear the rebels rushing in front, and immediately a scream rang out.
At a distance of more than fifty paces, the power of the flint gun was fully unleashed.
Even among the chaotic soldiers who rushed to the front, even dozens of them raised heavy shields, they could not stop these flying projectiles.
The projectiles that flew out high hit the shields in their hands, and debris flew everywhere.
Even the rebels hiding behind were not spared, and their bodies were immediately beaten and blood was splashed, and they fell down in one fell at once.
After Tian Jianxiu broke through Yiyang, he still found some usable ordnance from the county government, but it was already in tatters.
Like shields and armor, these can barely be used, as for those spears, even the heads of the spears are rusty, and the bows and arrows are broken when they are pulled, and they can't be used at all.
However, in general, for many rebel armies who still use sharpened bamboo as weapons to build a county town, it is still not a small benefit to them.
At this time, the dozens of rebels holding shields in the front of the line, the shields in their hands were found from Yiyang County, and they were barely of any use at this time.
It's just that the dozens of sword players in the front row, under the continuous blows of the White Dragon Army musketeers, were quickly swept away and fell to the ground one after another.
The shields they held in their hands were all wooden shields covered with pieces of iron, and in the face of the power of the flint, a few shots were enough to break them into pieces, which was of little use.
With the fall of the sword and shield soldiers in front, they rushed behind them, and more of those chaotic soldiers were exposed in front of the White Dragon Army musketeers.
The sudden blow almost made the group of chaotic soldiers led by Jin Laoliu not have any precautions at all.
However, this is actually also expected by Jin Laoliu, since the official army carries the tiger squat cannon, it will inevitably carry the bird gun.
However, according to Jin Laoliu's previous experience in dealing with officers and soldiers, he knew that the bird guns of these officers and soldiers were not reliable at all, and they could not fire a few shots.
For the thousands of them, there is not much danger, and they are about to rush up the hillside, as long as they reach the hillside, those bird guns are not as good as burning sticks.
"Don't be afraid, the officers and soldiers can't fire a few shots, rush up and kill them." Jin Lao Liu roared.
The gunshots on the side of the White Dragon Army, laughing and laughing, also seemed to verify Jin Laoliu's statement.
One thousand sixteen or seven hundred rebel troops fell from time to time, and for them, the losses were not too unacceptable, so the rebel army continued to rush forward.
Bang bang bang......
The gunfire continued, although it was not too dense, but the shooting of three hundred flint guns was still very terrifying.
In just twenty paces, these rebels once again paid more than 200 casualties, but Jin Lao Liu didn't care about this.
Before he came out, his prediction in his heart was that if he could pay half of the casualties, that is, a thousand people fell, as long as the remaining 1,000 people could rush up the hill and strangle with the officers and soldiers, he would be very satisfied.
As long as he successfully rushed up the hillside and strangled with the officers and soldiers, the artillery, birds, bows and arrows of the officers and soldiers would all be useless.
And when the time comes, Tian Jianxiu will immediately give an order to let the nearly 10,000 chaotic troops rush up and fight with the officials and soldiers in close quarters.
And against the officers and troops, the only advantage of these chaotic armies is hand-to-hand combat.
Because they really lack long-range attack weapons, they can only be beaten passively after closing the distance.
And once the two sides fight together, although their armor is unfavorable, they are better than the number of them, and the big deal is to pile up human lives, and pile up these officers and soldiers to death.
As long as this battle is won, the armor of these officers and soldiers will be removed, their weapons will be taken, and thousands of people will die in exchange for these weapons and armor.
In Tian Jianxiu's view, it is simply a big profit.
As long as those backbone core bandits do not die in the chaotic army, it won't take long for them to pull up more teams after the war, and there will be no shortage of people in Daming this year.
As long as you have food in your hands and a lot of homeless people for you to drive, but the weapons and armor are different, and this thing is not easy to handle.
The rebel army does not produce, they cannot make weapons and armor by themselves, they can only take it from the hands of the officials and soldiers.
Otherwise, Li Zicheng has been rebelling for so many years, and he has always lost more than he won over the officers and soldiers, and a large part of the reason is that they do not have many decent weapons in their hands.
When Jin Lao Liu's men rushed to a distance of less than thirty paces away from the White Dragon Army musketeers, his face showed joy, and after such a short distance, they gritted their teeth and rushed over.
"Drumming."
At this time, Xu Wei, who was standing in the second trench behind, saw that the rebel army had rushed so close, and immediately ordered the drums to be beaten.
The sound of drums is the attack order of the White Dragon Army.
"There's no need to hide, stand up for Lao Tzu, open fire, and kill all these rebels."
Hearing the sound of drums from behind, Sun Dazhuang's hands trembled excitedly, and he shouted loudly to his subordinates.
In an instant, small black heads rose from the trenches, and the muzzles of black holes stretched out one by one, aiming at the chaotic troops rushing up below.
At this time, more than 1,000 flint guns were aimed at the rebels below, pulled the trigger, and suddenly the gunfire was several times more intense than before.
Bang bang bang......
The sudden dense firepower and dense bullet rain poured head-on on the rebel army below, directly interrupting the chaotic army's charge.
"What's going on?"
At this time, Jin Lao Liu realized that something seemed to be wrong.
Because, at this time, he also saw rows of figures emerging from behind the dirt slope opposite, and they were only half exposed, and they were also holding bird guns in their hands, shooting at them.
The number of people suddenly increased by more than three times, and what made Jin Lao Liu even more frightened was that the bird guns in the hands of this official army could be connected all the time without exploding.
'Oh no, fooled. ’
This was the first thought that flashed in Jin Laoliu's mind at this time.
Almost instinctively, he stopped his steps and immediately wanted to lead his troops back.
However, if he fled back like this, it is estimated that Tian Jianxiu would have to kill him.
"Don't panic, rush over, hurry up and break them up!"
Jin Lao Liu has followed Li Zicheng for many years, and he still has a lot of experience in battle, and as soon as he showed signs that something was wrong, he quickly reacted and roared loudly in the team.
The rebels in front of them were a little stunned by the round of fire from the White Dragon Army musketeers, and they unconsciously stopped their steps, looked towards the opposite side in shock, and didn't know how to act for a while.
Seeing that many people in front of them were swept down at once, and the injured colleagues were still wailing at their feet, they were a little overwhelmed, making them instinctively retreat.
It wasn't until they heard the roar of Jin Lao Liu from behind that they realized that they were huddled here, and they were simply waiting for death.
Dense gunfire rang out one after another, and the rebels in front fell one after another, in this case, how could these rebel troops, who had only been training for a month, still be able to hold on.
At this time, it was already very good that they were able to hold on to this point, and at this time, no matter how Jin Lao Liu shouted, he couldn't stop these chaotic soldiers, and he turned his head and fled frantically.
Because, the rebels here have been frightened, and there is still the heart to fight, just thinking about escaping from this hell as soon as possible, and there is simply a group of devils on the opposite side.
"Don't run, don't run...... damn it, forget it, let's run away."
Jin Lao Liu also tried to stop these rebels, but when a rebel next to him approached, a lead bullet entered the back of his head and directly exploded his head.
White, red, sprayed Jin Lao Liu's face, so frightened that he turned around and fled directly.
"That's it?" Xu Wei looked confused.
Not to mention Xu Wei at this time, even Li Zixiao, who was at the back at this time, looked incredulous: "This is escape?" Am I being too ruthless? ”
Li Zixiao couldn't help but reflect.
In this ambush, he did exactly what he did when he trained the White Dragon Army on weekdays, he was meticulous, and even dug a lot of trenches.
In fact, it makes no difference whether to dig trenches or not with the fact that the rebels have almost no weapons of attack from a distance in their hands.
But Li Zixiao mainly came for military training, as long as he exterminated these chaotic troops, it was not the main task in his heart.
Because, Li Zixiao understands that these rebellious armies are like weeds, and it is impossible to destroy the light.
Training troops, occupying a territory in central Henan for himself, and blocking Li Zicheng's continued eastward advance is the real purpose of Li Zixiao's expedition.
As for exterminating the thieves, Li Zixiao never thought about it that way.
However, even if they can't exterminate the thieves, Li Zixiao will hurt them, so that when they hear Li Zixiao and the Xuzhou Army (the name of outsiders to the White Dragon Army at this time), they will be frightened.
