Ming Zuo

Chapter 998 Battle of Chuncheon

The scorching sun exhausted its last strength and finally penetrated through the layers of dense forests and projected onto the ground.

Spots and spots, light and shadow floating, is a great test for eyesight.

The Baya of the Qing army walked in groups of three, cautiously.

One person is in front, holding a wooden shield and a scimitar; the other person is at the side, equipped with a wooden shield and iron bones; the person caught in the middle is holding a bow and arrow.

The arrow has been wound, and the bowstring is half-opened.

The bow must not be drawn to the full, otherwise it will lose its strength in a short time and the arrow will lose its power.

These warriors who were able to fight fierce tigers and wolves in the old forest looked cautious and frightened at this moment, as if they were afraid of something.

Just because their enemies are more terrifying than tigers and wolves.

Even if there are many companions around them, no matter how brave the fighters are, they are not willing to lose their lives easily.

Baheda tried his best to widen his small round eyes, trying to see through this dense forest full of dangers.

Three days ago, they spotted a group of people moving strangely, and they immediately chased after them.

The gang quickly spotted them.

Fighting quickly broke out between the two sides.

As soon as he handed over, Baheda knew that this group of people must be Xia Jun's scouts.

The two sides have fought countless times in various parts of North Korea, and they are already familiar with each other's combat effectiveness and fighting methods.

There were only seven or eight Xia army scouts, but Baheda was still facing the enemy, and immediately sent people to send messages to the surroundings.

In the end, more than [-] elite soldiers of the Qing army chased after them, forcing these Xia army scouts into the forest in front of them.

During the three-day battle, there were more than forty casualties on the Qing side.But half of the scouts of the Xia army died in the battle, and there were no survivors.

Going forward, it is Linjin River.

After crossing the river, it is Xia Jun's territory.

Baheda didn't know the intentions of these Xia troops, so he could only lead his troops to bite them down.It would be great if all these scouts could be wiped out.

As he walked, he sucked his nose twice, and wiped it on the tree trunk beside him, and saw the blood that hadn't dried up on his fingertips.

This made his eyes light up, he whistled, and pointed straight ahead.

Ba Yala immediately spread out and surrounded the front.

In the depths of the dense forest, among the four Xia army scouts who survived, only the youngest one was still intact. The other three were all injured, which seriously affected the operation.

"Gu Erchuan, it's up to you whether the military situation can be transmitted back. Hurry up and find a way to cross the river."

The youngest scout, Gu Erchuan, was full of tears, looking at the three teammates with great reluctance.

"Captain, let's go together."

The squad leader Jiang Shangwu immediately began to shout and curse.

"At what time do you dare to be messy? If you can't leave, you can't send the military situation back, and if you lose the battle, we will lose face. Can you afford it?"

Another scout, Tang Zhifeng, was wrapping gauze around his arm, and he also tried to persuade him.

"Gu Erchuan, listen carefully. The sky is big and the earth is big, and the military situation is the biggest. If the army is defeated because of us, even if it is dead, the captain will not spare us. You don't want our investigation team to be ashamed Bar?"

Gu Erchuan didn't understand what they said.But watching comrades-in-arms die helplessly is not acceptable to human nature.

He wanted to say something, but Jiang Shangwu opened his backpack, took out a bunch of things and stuffed them into his hands.

"You have to go back alive no matter what, and these things must be brought to the big guy's family. Listen, live well, you don't want the big guy's family to know everything, right?"

What Jiang Shangwu gave him was the personal items of all comrades in the entire reconnaissance team.

Many people died, but their most precious things were preserved.Maybe this is their family, the last thought.

With a heavy burden on his back, Gu Erchuan finally figured it out.

He wiped away the tears on his face, gave a final military salute to the three comrades in arms, turned around and sank into the grass.

Jiang Shangwu and Tang Zhifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief and showed relaxed smiles.

"There are only the three of us left, and we can't run anymore, so let's help Gu Erchuan drag it out for a while."

Tang Zhifeng was full of anger.

"I don't die so easily, so I have to drag him a few times."

The three scouts of the Xia army who were seriously injured had already heard the sound of footsteps in the distance.However, without any fear, they grabbed the weapons in their hands and made final preparations.

Gu Erchuan ran all the way, without stopping for a moment, and finally, finally ran to the riverside.

The water surface hundreds of meters wide is a natural moat in the eyes of many people.If it was him, there was no good way.

But as scouts, of course they have been trained to swim.

Without a moment's delay, Gu Erchuan took out the matching knife casually.

He chopped off all the branches and trunks that were as thick as an arm, and there were more than twenty of them.Then these wooden branches are tied together with ropes, which weigh at least a hundred catties.

Gu Erchuan dragged the bundle of wood and stepped into the river step by step.Then the whole person lay down on it, using both hands and feet, and started paddling towards the opposite bank.

There was a sudden gunshot in the woods behind, followed by lively shouts of killing.

Gu Erchuan knew that the captain and the others had ushered in the last moment.

How much he wanted to see through this dense forest and see the situation of his comrades in arms.But reason told him that he had to speed up.

A ghostly whistling sound suddenly came before his eyes, and then there was a clanging sound on his back.

Gu Erchuan looked back, only to find that several Qing soldiers were standing on the shore, aiming at him with bows and arrows.

The sentence just now hit his backpack and was blocked by the things inside.

But not every time, he will be so lucky.

The Qing army's arrows suddenly increased, covering him completely.

Gu Erchuan was lying on the wood, there was no way to avoid it, he could only try his best to shrink his head.

With a steel helmet on his head, he is not afraid of the arrows of the Qing army.There is a backpack on the back, which can also play a blocking role.

As for the exposed hands and feet, there is nothing to be done.

Gu Erchuan let out a sharp groan, his left leg twitched, apparently hit by an arrow.

Gritting his teeth, he pulled out the arrow.In an instant, the surface of the water he was in was stained red.

He didn't care about the wound at all, and paddled harder and harder, just trying to stay away from the enemy.

Seeing him getting further and further away, the Qing army became more anxious, and the speed of shooting arrows became faster and faster.

The number of wounds on Gu Erchuan's body continued to increase, causing his speed to slow down.But across the tens of meters of the river, the Qing army had no other choice but to continue shooting arrows, hoping to kill them with one blow.

Gu Erchuan looked towards the south bank, and there was still a distance of [-] to [-] meters.

He didn't know if he could hold on to the past.

The Qing army behind him once again opened his bow, maybe in the next second, he will die here.

bang bang bang bang...

The bows and arrows of the Qing army did not shoot out in the end, and the dense musket fire of the Xia army killed those Qing soldiers on the spot.

Across the hundreds of meters of the river, the bows and arrows of the Qing army were not very powerful, but the muskets of the Xia army completely ignored this distance.

Under the intensive shooting, those few Qing troops had no time to dodge.

And hearing the familiar gunshots, Gu Erchuan's whole body softened, and his consciousness began to become blurred.

In front of him, many soldiers of the Xia army came stepping on the water, getting closer and closer to him.
