Chapter 21: Frightened

Seeing this, Luo Wenshan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Wang Guandao, do you already have a way......

"Yes, my lord......" The infantry battalion pipe band, who was stared at by Luo Wenshan's eyes tightly, did not hesitate, and replied very briskly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The reason why Lao Maozi's encirclement and suppression troops failed ten days ago was because they had no way to take the bandits' sneak attack tactics, and on the other hand, because they lacked troops......

So, the last will think that if only we could learn from the lesson, we wouldn't make the same mistakes again. The remaining 400 people of the patrol battalion did not divide their troops or stop on the road, and the whole army formed a group and killed directly at the main peak of Pine Ridge......"

"In this way, with the absolute superiority in troops, we can rush to the main peak of Pine Ridge at the lowest cost......"

After some comparison and contemplation, Luo Wenshan had to admit it. Although the method of the infantry battalion management belt could not avoid losses along the way of the continued march, it could reduce the losses to a minimum.

Then, Luo Wenshan, who had a solemn face, opened his mouth and ordered: "The whole army of the patrol battalion obeys the order...... Keep moving forward, if you encounter a sneak attack, ignore it, and kill the main peak of Pine Ridge in the shortest possible time......"

Although the method of patrolling the battalion of the official army made Yang Xingguo feel very caught off guard, Yang Xingguo's idea of defeating them before the patrol battalion reached Pine Ridge failed.

However, Yang Xingguo did not give up this opportunity to weaken the patrol battalion.

The fourteen sharpshooters, including himself, each used up all the fifty rounds of ammunition he was carrying, and then returned to the cottage with a face full of unwillingness.

Although the official patrol battalion followed closely and killed the main peak of Pine Ridge, and began to set up camp, posing as if it had been guarded for a long time.

However, the 500 people before the patrol battalion set out for the battle, at this moment, there are only about 300 people left who can still move.

Although the commander of the patrol battalion, Luo Wenshan, adjusted the formation in time and let the infantry battalion protect himself and the personal guards. However, after more than an hour of marching, there were still more than a dozen officers and men of the personal guard who fell on the march.

Yang Xingguo, who had been lurking around the patrol camp, saw that it was already difficult for him to fight the officers and soldiers equipped with fast guns on the Zhongshan Road. Without even hesitating, he immediately ordered everyone to change their targets and shoot the officers and cavalry with the most obvious targets on the mountain road.

Therefore, at this moment, there are still more than 300 patrol battalions left, and there are 150 cavalry at three outposts, and there are less than 50 outposts left. The fifty guards who commanded the most precious in Rowan Mountain also suffered heavy losses, and there were only a handful of twenty people left. As for the rest, they were all three-post infantry of the infantry battalion, totaling more than two hundred and seventy people.

Because the troops were marching in a hurry all the way, although there were constant gunshots around him, Luo Wenshan did not know the casualties of the entire patrol battalion.

Therefore, when the two pipe bands under his command and the sentry commander of the personal guard team reported the losses of their troops one after another, Luo Wenshan was directly shocked on the spot.

Among all of them, the most embarrassing is undoubtedly the infantry battalion pipe band.

Because, the way of the rapid march that I had just experienced was proposed by myself. Now that there are so many casualties at one time, it is normal to put all the blame on yourself.

Just when the atmosphere of the military tent became more and more solemn, the commander Luo Wenshan finally spoke......

"Well, since the people have been lost, there is no point in saying more. At present, the first thing we need to do is to unite the whole army and hold on to our remaining soldiers. Let's not forget that we are right under the noses of the bandits...... One bad one can lead to the annihilation of the whole army......"

"The task given to us above is to harass and attack Yangjiazhai for two months. Now it seems that harassment and aggression have had to be given up for us. Because, we don't have any extra troops to squander......"

"Therefore, this official decided that in the next two months, the whole army will be trapped in the barracks and block the bandits of Yangjiazhai on the main peak of Songshuling, so that they will not be able to move...... Two months later, we immediately withdrew our troops and handed over these bandits to Lao Maozi to clean up ......"

The order to lead Luo Wenshan is definitely the mind of a few henchmen now.

Because, after more than an hour of marching and attacking, they have been frightened by the ubiquitous sharpshooters in Yangjiazhai.

At this moment, the idea that they wanted to kill a few more bandits and go back to receive the reward was how to return to Anshan County alive from the moment they got the number of casualties in the troops.

And hushing in the camp, letting hundreds of subordinates protect them heavily, and standing still, is undoubtedly the highest way to save your life......

Of course, every move of the patrol battalion at the foot of the mountain did not escape the eyes of Yang Xingguo at the top of the mountain.

After the news that the patrol battalion had been standing still for three consecutive days was once again transmitted to the cottage, several subordinates who were discussing with Yang Xingguo showed a thick expression of incomprehension on their faces without exception......

Wang Hu, the second master, did not hesitate much, and said directly: "The big master...... Is the patrol battalion under the mountain scared by you...... Only dare to be a turtle with a shrunken head, and dare not attack us......"

Yang Xingguo nodded and affirmed: "Very likely...... Although there is no detailed number...... However, along the entire march, at least one hundred and fifty officers and soldiers died in our hands......"

"Do you think they can not be afraid of losing more than thirty percent of their troops without even seeing our shadows?"

Second Uncle Zhou Zhongju followed up and added: "Those people in the patrol battalion are greedy for life and afraid of death, as far as I know, more than 100 people died at one time, which has never happened since the establishment of the patrol battalion...... Therefore, I agree with the judgment of the second master, the officers and soldiers under the mountain must have been scared by the big boss......"

Speaking of this, Zhou Zhongju's words suddenly turned around and continued: "However, even if the patrol battalion is frightened by us, as long as he does not retreat for a day, our contact with the outside of the mountain will not be restored for a day. Of course, the food outside the mountain can't enter our cottage for a day......"

"To tell you the truth, according to the current rate of food consumption, in a maximum of ten days, the food stock of our cottage will be completely consumed......"

"How can it be so fast...... At that time, when I pitted two Japanese, I specially counted that the cottage grain was enough for the cottage to last at least three months...... That's why I didn't think about food during this time......"

A wry smile quickly flashed on Zhou Zhongju's face and replied: "Big boss, three months is calculated according to the population of the cottage at that time...... Now, there are 100 more young people in the cottage at once, plus everyone trains for four or five hours a day, the amount of food has increased greatly, and the ration for three months has been shortened to half a month. What's more, this is still calculated when the brothers continue to go into the mountains to hunt and constantly replenish some prey to the cottage. Without these prey, the time would have been shortened by two days......"
