Chapter 318: The Camera Acts (Three Watches)
"Ambush?" Chen Xingyan stepped back in shock, and then shouted loudly: "Bird guns on the avenue, line up to the north! Tiger squat artillery and then set up a position!"
"Oh?" Chang Weiden was a little dumbfounded, Chen Xingyan's reaction and tactical level were a little scary! No wonder he could command the remnants of the Six Guards, Zhao Yan was relieved that he had a reason. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Cheng Laohu, give it to me!" Chang Wei shouted in a bluff, and didn't care about the officers and soldiers who were lining up behind him and turned around and ran.
By the time the officers and soldiers lined up and began to light the guns, Chang Wei and the others had already run away, the old-fashioned arquebuses had a short range and slow speed, and the chance of hitting in the mountains and forests was similar to that of hitting birds.
The subordinate officer immediately asked, "My lord, this kid seems to be playing tricks, should we chase after him?"
Chen Xingyan turned his head to the south, looked at the Weishan camp that was still burning, and said, "It's important to enter Weishan County, and the credit can't be robbed by Chang Wei, the bastard." However, it is likely that there is a real remnant of troops in the north. In this way, line up first, and when we leave, you will slowly advance to the north with people, and if the thief army is weak, you will **** a guy to get some credit. If the thief army is strong, they will retreat, and they will not be able to fight for this remnant army, in case they have an ambush, they will not be able to draw it, and it is not fun for the White Lotus to teach those mad dogs to fight for their lives. ”
"Understand, the subordinate camera is what it does. ”
"That's good!" Chen Xingyan praised, "It's the camera!"
When Chang Wei, Tang Jinyi and the others rushed back to the T-junction where the North-South Avenue and the East and West Valley Trails were connected, there were still 5,000 people in the White Lotus Army who had not entered the valley.
"Cheng Laohu is ready to fight, the official army is coming!" Chang Wei shouted loudly: "Brothers, speed up, run up and enter the valley quickly!"
Previously, he was afraid that Jing Tai would alarm Chen Xingyan's officers and troops in advance, so the White Lotus Army quietly moved forward. As soon as Chang Wei gave this order, the soldiers immediately lit torches and ran desperately.
A few miles to the south, the officers and soldiers in the layers of formations looked at this formation and felt three points empty, thinking that the White Lotus Army was really in ambush. Immediately set up guns and artillery in the same place and carefully guarded them, until most of the centaurs led by Chen Xingyan left the avenue and crossed the northern foot of Taiping Mountain and marched towards the military camp, the sound of the north also disappeared.
The two officers gathered around the 'camera' and asked, "Captain Li, what the hell do you think the thieves are doing?
Captain Li pondered for a while and said, "Eighty percent is bluffing, let's go over and take a look." Anyway, no matter how powerful the remnants of the thief army are, they can't beat our guns!"
"Okay, then we'll give him a guy. ”
After the three officers had finished their deliberations, they selected a group of skilled scouts to explore the way with torches, while the bird-gunners followed in a line, and the three thousand men cautiously approached.
After walking slowly for a quarter of an hour, he finally came to the T-junction, and after looking left and right, he found that to the northeast was the road from which he came, and a large number of footprints disappeared into the small valley to the northwest. However, there was silence in front of them at this time, and there was not even a ghost shadow.
"His grandmother's, that kid named He Wenlie, actually took us in a circle!"
"This kid was afraid that his remnants would be eaten by us, so he deliberately diverted us and let his people escape from the northwest. ”
"I can't help but let out this evil breath, why do you want to **** a girl!"
After figuring out Chang Wei's purpose, the three officers and soldiers immediately deduced the 'fact' that the White Lotus Army was vulnerable, and their fighting spirit was high!
Chang Wei, who was ambushed in the dense forest on the valley, watched the officers and troops approaching quickly, and sighed in his heart: "This battle is finally inevitable!"
Fortunately, the rapid retreat just now made the enemy suspicious, so the twenty or thirty thousand White Lotus troops had safely entered the valley, and then as long as this small number of officers and troops was taught a lesson, they would probably retreat.
The vanguard of the officers and troops approached rapidly, and soon entered the valley, and the bird-bearers marched in a two-man column with guns in their hands, and walked in a two-man column in the valley, which could accommodate three people in parallel, and the column of three thousand men became a torrent with no end in sight.
After entering the valley for half a mile, they encountered a tree branch in the middle of the road, and the soldiers who opened the way in front of them split it with a knife and held torches to warn the birds behind to be careful with their feet.
The scouts had been sneaking above the valley, and when they saw the soldiers holding the directions stopped, Chang Wei gestured, and more than two dozen people simultaneously aimed at those who did not know that danger was coming.
The faces of the soldiers were clearly distinguishable in the firelight, their armor was no different from that of ordinary Ming troops, and they held the same style of Yanling knives in their hands. Suddenly, Chang Wei, who had been aiming for a long time, easily opened the bowstring in his fingers, and in a violent tremor, three deadly feather arrows had already pierced the throats of the three soldiers.
At the same time as the corpse fell, the buzzing bowstring sounded, the officers and soldiers were slightly stunned, and then looked around, the attack came too fast and they didn't react at all, and the next moment, more than 20 feather arrows whistled and shot down a dozen people.
It's worthy of the scout team, half of the hit rate is already quite high!
"Enemy attack!"
"The thieves are in the valley, shoot quickly!"
With the shouts of the officers, Chang Wei and Tang Jinyi fired three arrows at the same time, and there were no more soldiers left holding torches.
The reacting soldiers finally lit the arquebus, and nine projectiles burst out over the valley like fireworks, and the huge echo drowned out the screams of the soldiers and the shouts of the officers.
It's a pity that the nine guns in this hectic chaos are outrageous, and they haven't even found the exact location where Chang Wei and the others are hiding. But it doesn't matter, the Ming army has long practiced three-stage strike training, as long as the first three rows suppress the bow and arrow, the people behind will naturally come up and shoot.
"Let's go!" As long as it can hinder the opponent's pursuit footsteps, Chang Wei's purpose was achieved, and the scout team rushed to the next sniper position under the leadership of the two masters.
Ignoring the dense gunfire behind them, more than twenty people galloped two hundred paces along the other side of the ridge to reach a dry waterhole, where the valley passage opposite the waterhole leading to the northwest turned due north.
To the east of the dry pool was a muddy field, and to the west was a dense wooded area on the side of Changwei, which was their second sniper position.
When the officers and soldiers behind him fired for a while, and when they saw no movement, they sent men to climb the low ridge, and when they saw that they had fled, they beckoned the soldiers in the valley to continue their advance.
This time, the officers and soldiers also became smarter, the team was divided into three, and the large group of men and horses was still advancing in the valley, and a team of men on the left and right ridges were sent to observe the enemy situation with torches and guide the way.
Although he had seen the enemy's countermeasures from afar, Chang Wei was not worried. Relying on dense woods to shoot with a bow and arrow is far more powerful than a bird's gun, which has less range than a bow and arrow, and the woods are natural shelters that can block bullets. The only thing to worry about was the tiger squat cannon of the official army, but while they were preparing the artillery, Chang Wei had enough time to escape into the valley behind him.
"We're on the left, you're on the right!"
"Good!"
Chang Wei and Tang Jinyi had just finished dividing, and the officers and soldiers holding torches were already approaching, obviously the other party also realized that this forest was an excellent hiding place, but when they were still one hundred and twenty steps away, they were accurately hit by six **** feather arrows.
The surviving soldiers immediately threw their torches and ran backwards shouting.
"What a strong archery!"
"Be careful, the thieves have archers!"
Lieutenant Li, who was in the valley, immediately ordered: "Bird guns come forward, suppress the fire! The gunners quickly transport the tiger squat cannon and bombard this forest for Lao Tzu!" )
