Chapter 301 The Battle of Longyan (23)

After the suspension bridge was forcibly lowered, they were still on the enemy tower, the watchtower and the windows opened their eyes and opened their mouths, and the bewildered defenders were immediately hit hard.

Some soldiers who had already allocated targets fired cold guns at a distance of 200 meters. Hundreds of bullets scrambled into windows near the gate and enemy towers. It took only one round to open the heads of more than 30 people.

Seeing the blood and brains flowing all over the ground, Lin Sanmen, who had already retreated to the side, was startled at first, then he closed his eyes in pain, and shook his head - the dead were all the elite of the clan, and even the opponents He didn't even see his face clearly, and his head was smashed.

The downfall of the suspension bridge and the death of the clansmen proved that Lin Sanmen's original decision was correct, but it was useless. From the moment Liu Xiancheng finished reading the proclamation, the Lin family village had already embarked on the path of no return against the government and the army. road.

Although the nouns are different, the principle is the same in ancient and modern times: Those who bow their heads before making a move are called uprisings, and they can be a part-time official afterward, even if they don't help the CPPCC.

And after doing it?That's called a prisoner of war, surrender now?late!
Lin Sanmen knew that his family's life was already at stake, and the officers and soldiers would never let him, the patriarch, go after the incident.The Lin family has made a lot of money by relying on gangsters for many years, with arrogance, and now the retribution for those killings and looting has come.The patriarch couldn't take the clansman down early before, so wouldn't he have to pay the debt with his own head afterwards?
The government will definitely not let him go.

Thinking of this, Lin Sanmen turned his head and glanced at the yelling clansmen, then lowered his head, bent over, and silently climbed down the wooden ladder.

After the first round of gun discharge, the 200 soldiers of the Red Gun Battalion pulled out of the skirmish line and began to fight while walking.Bullets rained into the windows on the front of the earth building, and after a minute, no one dared to poke their heads out again.

In the eyes of the ancients, it was very unprofessional, and the sparse line of skirmishers quickly moved to the side of the trench, forming a static arc-shaped front.Now there is only a trench between the two sides. Even if the height difference is counted, the slash aiming distance has been shortened to less than 30 meters.

At this time, the gunfire stopped instead: the soldiers began to take turns raising their guns and aiming, ready to shoot accurately at any time.At this distance, not to mention the probe, a finger stretched out from the window will be interrupted instantly.

The next moment, wearing a riot helmet, a plexiglass panel, and a tightly wrapped body, the blaster rushed across the suspension bridge.

The explosive package in the Demoman's arms is not very large. It doesn't take much gunpowder to smash a wooden gate.If it is to deal with those city gates blocked by bricks and stones, maybe a few more packs of explosives will be carried over.However, to deal with these country toubob who don't understand advanced tactics at all, one pack is enough.

It only took a few seconds for the blaster to cross the ten-meter-long suspension bridge.Next, he quickly placed the explosive package under the gate, then pulled the fuze, turned and ran away.

In a critical moment, the Demoman can jump into the trench.But doing so can lead to injury: there are usually bamboo sticks and traps at the bottom of the trench.

Of course, the Demoman doesn't need to jump ditch today.The defenders on the earth building have been completely stunned. The novel, ruthless, and elegant fighting style has made these medieval cold weapons and civilians unable to adapt. They are currently busy crawling among the corpses on the ground, and howling in fear by the way The sound, completely ignoring the figure running at high speed under his feet.

The melon-eating crowd standing hundreds of meters away also didn't understand.

These people included local military households and civilians, and there were also a large number of idlers: as soon as they heard that the government and the army were going to wipe out Tongluowan, all the melon-eating people from all over the world came here.The nearby clan and landlords did not pull any of them, and all sent a field observation team. The ending of the Linjiazhai is related to the next step of the masters' strategy to deal with the cross-travelers.

When the weirdo first ran over the bridge, everyone didn't understand the situation.However, when he ran back again, many people opened their mouths.

The scene that happened immediately caused everyone to laugh happily: as the blaster ran back, the soldiers near the suspension bridge also began to retreat collectively, looking like they were fleeing.

The people who eat melons immediately expressed their understanding: This group of short-haired officers and soldiers seem to have good marksmanship, but they have nothing to do with the earth building.No, I couldn't even find a vanguard when I went to the city, and when I came out, I was scared back.

Then the dynamite pack went off.

This pack of explosives contains not only black powder, but also a pound of mining nitroglycerin adsorbed in diatomaceous earth.So don't talk about Zhaimen, even the Nine Gates in the capital can't resist.

Flames, bursts, gushing thick fog, huge bangs and flying wood chips, the gorgeous light and shadow effects immediately shocked all the people who eat melons.

The soldiers who were still retreating one moment, when they escaped the dangerous shock wave and wood chip cutting, roared and rushed into the earthen building the next moment.

The Lin family village was finished like this.

It took less than half an hour from the first gunshot to the breaking down of the village. The attacker was unscathed and the defender had no power to fight back. The whole process was full of fantasy and silence in the eyes of the melon eaters. This is not the kind of fierce war they imagined at all.

After 200 soldiers from the Red Gun Battalion rushed into the earth building, the surrounding troops also began to move.

First of all, the 300th cavalry army led by Li Qianhu also brandished knives and guns, and rushed into the earth building aggressively.

Secondly, the local soldiers who were originally assigned to be in charge of guarding the surrounding areas also began to move around—the Lin family has more than one earthen building. In the empty city, you can definitely get something.

Then the gunshots rang out.

The 200 reinforcement soldiers led by Ding Liqiu were prepared to be used at this time.When Baihu, who was jumping around in the local guard and encouraging everyone to fight the local tyrant, was shot to death, the rest of the people shrank immediately—people who have just watched the shootout blockbuster know very well the power of Erba Dagai.

After subduing these local beggars, Ding Liqiu first summoned the head of the guard and the head of the county government and the county magistrate, and after reiterating the principle that everyone has a share in the benefits, he began to arrange everyone to work.

The main task of the locals is to guard and maintain order on the periphery.When the gunshots in the earthen building gradually subsided, Ding Liqiu sent in the militiamen and commercial guards who came with him.

The war in the tulou ended quickly.In ancient times, there were very few troops that fought desperately in the streets after the enemy entered the city-the Battle of Stalingrad will not be until hundreds of years later.

The soldiers were searching the prisoners from house to house at the moment, and drove them to the large square in the middle of the earth building.Thousands of Lin family members squatted on the soil field, and the ferocious military households of the guards were acting as guards, waving knives and guns from time to time, scaring children and women into crying.

At this time, the electric horn temporarily installed in front of the ancestral hall finally started to work, and the loud voice began to repeat the captive policy.

After hearing that everyone was going to be sent to exile for three years of hard labor for fighting against the government, the scene became a little quieter.In fact, in this era, there are too many examples of indigenous armed forces fighting against the government, rebelling, and then being massacred and looted by the government.

So when the Lin family heard that they were only exiled to a remote place for three years of hard labor, the bottom-level people, who accounted for the majority of the population, stopped making trouble—they usually worked hard every day, and their family had no property. As long as it can save the whole family's life.

In fact, these people still worry too much.Generally speaking, as long as a so-called exile can gain a foothold in the senior officials and become a teacher as an apprentice, his sentence will be over.Even when he was an apprentice, the basic salary, basic housing, and medical care were all guaranteed, nothing more than no bonus.

However, no matter what the policy is, there are people who will come out to make trouble—vested interests.The two so-called clan elders stood up tremblingly in the next moment, leaning on crutches, planning to reason with Wei Yuan who was sitting in front of the ancestral hall smoking.

Then they were hanged.

Not only the two old men were hanged, taking this opportunity, several other powerful people such as clan elders and eldest sons were also dragged out and hanged in front of the ancestral hall.

This time no one came out to reason.

The next step is screening and triage.The most needy families across the crowd were picked out first: poor families of three, and families of four were welcome.Of course, if a couple has three or five children, it would be best.

These people and their children were the first to be sent away, escorted by the caravan guards.Then there are some families with the elderly.After the screening of these people, it was the turn of the bachelors.

And finally, "Problem Families".Generally speaking, problem families are equated with "vested interest families".

Any large clan will have such a small group of families at the top of the pyramid.According to the immigration experience of the senior officials over the past year, any such "problem families", as long as they are given the opportunity, they will definitely contact the tribe and try to restore their old life.

So after several investigations and investigations, the time traveler became impatient—all problematic families would eventually go to the volcano mining town in Taipei, and they would never see their own clansmen again.

The screening and triage work lasted for three full days.

Fortunately, the tulou of the Lin family is also vacant now, and all clan members were quickly reassigned to the vacant tulou according to their "political status".They will be sent away one after another in the next month, walking out of the mountains and across the sea, to a place where they can be reborn.

After the Lin family was settled that day, people suddenly discovered something in the process of identification and diversion: Lin Sanmen, the patriarch of the Lin family, was missing.

Later, during a careful search of the Lin family's tulou, people discovered a secret passage leading to the forest behind. Now everyone knows: Lin Sanmen has escaped.

However, later that day, Lin Sanmen came back under the watchful eyes of everyone.
