Chapter 263: Fighting Bandits
The town can easily evacuate from the central area and can go down. [] But the bandits cannot do it. Otherwise, they will not be called bandits.
At this time, Li Guo also noticed something was wrong and was about to call the gold to withdraw the troops, but it was too late. The troops were like bees that exploded in a nest and could not be taken back. At this time, Li Sicheng sneered: "Haha, do you want to run away? There is no door! Grandpa, I have been playing with you for so long and enduring for so long. Isn't it just for this moment?"
"Beat the drum" With Li Sicheng's order, the horse sounded another drum sound. The towns scattered towards both sides, after hearing the drum sound, the horse formation changed from the original to the two sides to the four sides. Soon, the five thousand towns formed an encirclement circle, and as the prey in the encirclement circle, it wrapped the nearly 8,000 cannon fodder troops, the entire thousand old battalions and elite cavalry!
"Brothers, don't panic, the town is nothing great! We have seen it before." The leaders of the old camp began to yell: "Let's work together, think together, and rush out in the same place!"
If we say that the leaders of the old camp are still a little appealing, the cannon fodder troops that were surrounded have already started to panic. Now, when I hear someone stand up and say this, I feel a little calmer and start to organize a large-scale charge!
"Haha, boys, let them taste the power of the town! Let them know why the flowers are so red!" But Li Sicheng smiled contemptuously and waved his hand suddenly! With Li Sicheng's move, the long-silent gunshots of the town sounded again.
"Brothers, don't be afraid that the bird gun will not kill many people when it sounds loud. When the gunshots stop, we will rush out!" The leader of the old camp continued to encourage. But when the smoke of guns was gone and the situation around could be cleared, the leader of the old camp was stunned.
No matter he was stunned, Li Guo and Hao Yaoqi were stunned. Only Liu Fangliang, after a thick glance, closed his eyes in pain and tears fell.
It's so miserable! It's really a loss! It's just that people were crowded with people, and people were next to each other! After all, there were seven or eight thousand people inside! I saw my head! But now, less than half of those who can stand still! The rest fell to the ground, or were wailing in pain, or were even more straightforward, and were already silent. Only the slowly cooling body reminded others that this was still a living life just now! And these dead people, whether they were old camp or cannon fodder troops, were no different in front of the new bird guns in the town!
In fact, this is the real level of the town. It was just an acting. Of course, the life rate also changes with the battlefield situation. If the bandits are scattered, it will be relatively low, and like now, they are full of sardines. It is like practicing target shooting, one shot is accurate!
"Brothers, don't be standing there, hurry up and rush out. It will take a while before the town can shoot again!" The old camp leader yelled again. Not to mention, this guy is really tenacious. At this time, he still does not forget his responsibilities.
His voice really played a role. The bandits who were in chaos began to line up, preparing to gather together to rush out! However, the thing that shocked these bandits happened again. When they had just lined up, the terrifying gunfire sounded again. It was only a few dozen seconds before the second town fired!
And the effect is surprisingly good. Originally, it was all in a mess, so the life rate was naturally unsatisfactory. But now the formation is waiting to be shot, and the shooting accuracy is naturally improved. So, the bandits were like cut down wheat, and were knocked down again.
Someone who was lucky enough to die and was already crying when he got up from the ground. He also questioned the old camp leader who asked them to line up just now: "I said brother, who are you from there? Did you help them when you see the government army trying hard to aim!"
In this way, after several tosses, it turned out that the seven or eight thousand bandits in the encirclement were only a thousand people left to breathe, and the rest were reported to him in hell.
"Oh, let's go." Li Guo, Hao Yaoqi, and Liu Fangliang, who were originally watching the battle not far away, were still illusions. After all, there were nearly 10,000 brothers in the encirclement. Even if there were nearly 10,000 sheep, they would have to be killed for a while. If the town wants to eat so many people, then they will have a good tooth!
So they were still waiting on the periphery and waiting for an opportunity to respond. But after just one incense stick of time, only ten of them were dead. Even the rest were still alive, and it was just a matter of time. Li Guo, Liu Fangliang, and Hao Yaoqi went to each other, all from the other's eyes to the terror that covered the magic. Such an official army was a bit powerful!
Since they followed Li Zicheng to start the uprising, they have fought with many officials and soldiers, including Qin and Henan soldiers. Even if they are the most powerful people, He Renlong, who is desperate to fight, has fought several battles. Although they have not been able to get it well, they are definitely not as miserable as they are now!
"Oh, it is worthy of being the town that the Dog Emperor relies on as the Great Wall, and it is worthy of being the town that the entire army praised personally by the Dog Emperor! The military force of the country can indeed be used to conquer the country!" Li Guo sighed. At the same time, his heart was bleeding! Those cannon fodder troops were fine, but the brothers and elite cavalry of the old camp were all veterans of a hundred battles! Any one of them was precious wealth, but unexpectedly, they were massacred here and their entire army was wiped out!
"Brother Liu, do you think the Ming Dynasty is not over yet? With such a powerful town, who can still make good things in their hands!" However, Hao Yaoqi stared at his big eyes like a copper bell and said to himself. Hao Yaoqi is a rough man, and the more such a person is, the more likely he is to be bewitched.
Hao Yaoqi has heard Niu Jinxing say more than once that the Ming Dynasty has ended, and the destiny is breaking through the king... As the saying goes, lies will become the truth if they repeat them a hundred times. I often hear Niu Jinxing say this, and the government army will retreat step by step, and his own team will grow stronger every day, and Hao Yaoqi believes it unquestionably.
However, the scene that happened in front of him deeply shocked him. This was only a small part of the town, and the soul of the town, the famous general of the town, had not arrived yet! 10,000 to 5,000, and there were 1,000 elite old camps and elite cavalry. However, they were beaten into an annihilation battle. The entire eight thousand brothers were all made into dumplings by the town! How unbearable!
But now they understand that the relationship was so mediocre just now, and they were teasing them! Now is their real strength!
"Brother Shaking Flags, I'm already being delayed, so I'd better leave quickly. Otherwise, we'd be left by the town and left here. We'd have to go back and report to the King of Chuang to truthfully!"
However, Liu Fangliang sighed. Liu Fangliang was quite sober. His eyes were gone, and they would be left alone if they didn't leave.
"Let's go" Hao Yaoqi shouted suddenly, and the brothers around him showed a wry smile on his face. When he came out, he hugged and hurriedly rushed, and there were 10,000 brothers and 20,000 siege Yuzhou. But now, not only cannon fodder troops were lost, but even the old battalion and elite cavalry were lost. Looking around, there were only more than a hundred personal soldiers left. How miserable this scene is!
"Gathering" Li Guo, Hao Yaoqi, and Liu Fangliang all shook the reins and started running wildly. They were just a bit straightforward. If such a crushing defeat was replaced by a Ming official, he would have to wipe his neck or something. Even if he didn't want to die, he would have to act.
But the three of them were fine and they were just a runaway. But it was normal to think about it carefully. Now they are many people. They used to be bandits, and they only had dozens of broken swords under their command. They were chased by the government army like a stray dog. Now they are just reviewing it again.
"General, the leader of the bandits is running away. Do you want to chase him?" When the guard saw Liu Fangliang and others running away, he asked Li Sicheng for instructions. Now Li Sicheng is also a third-rank cavalry general. Therefore, he deserves the title of general.
"Forget it, let them live a few days first." Li Sicheng looked like the small group of bandits fleeing in a hurry and said with a smile: "First of all, these bandits are all masters who run away. Haven't you seen them all be one and two horses? We can hardly chase them. Second, anyway, you have already won a great victory after taking down the bandits in the encirclement. Besides, where can these bandits escape?
After solving the bandits here, our horses will go to lift the siege of Yuzhou. After lifting the siege of Yuzhou, we will face Li Zicheng's large team of troops soon. So I guess we will not meet again next time!"
"General Weird" With the admiration of his personal guards, the battle in the encirclement has come to an end. Except for nearly 2,000 prisoners, the rest were all killed! It is not that it is cruel, but that the new bird gun is too powerful. It is a hole of size when hitting it!
Even if the person who was injured by lead could not die for a while, the wound would almost be bleeding. In that era, there were no first aid measures for blood transfusion.
Of course, the town itself suffered a lot of casualties. After statistics, more than 200 people were killed and more than 300 people were injured! Almost all of the dead were caused by the old camp and elite cavalry of the bandits. It accounted for about one-tenth of the total. In fact, the town could have avoided such a large casualties, but if you do that, you may not be able to keep the troops of the old camp and elite cavalry. So it is worth it!
After all, the essence of Li Zicheng's men is the old camp and the elite cavalry. After these people are lost, Li Zicheng will be almost done.
The next step is to clean up the battlefield, but these bandits are really shabby, that is, the old camp and elite cavalry have some items worth recycling, such as armor and steel knives. The rest of the cannon fodder troops, and those ragged clothes, are troublesome even if they are given to the soldiers of the town!
While the town was escorting a long list of prisoners, a large group of ragged refugees emerged from somewhere. It was probably because they were watching from a distance just now, but now the dust has settled and they have come out.
Chapter completed!
