Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 20 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

Ping Pong Pong!

One shot at an old bandit.

Liu Fei and others looked shocked.

Zhao Xiaoqi is too good at fighting!

"Surrender and don't kill!

Put down your weapons and squat on the ground!Let you live!
I guarantee with the emperor's life that I will never kill you indiscriminately!

Anyone who dares to run will be killed! "

Zhao Cheng roared loudly.

A group of piers also shouted.

Only Liu Fei secretly felt that something was wrong, how could he make such a joke about the emperor?

However, this thought was only fleeting.

Some bandits couldn't run anymore. Seeing that they were being overtaken, they quickly dropped their weapons and squatted on the ground.

then……

Those piers really didn't kill them.

These piers have just picked up their weapons for a few days, and they were still collecting firewood for work two days ago!
Let them kill, they are really a little soft.

It was Zhao Xiaoqi's order not to kill indiscriminately, so of course they had to obey.

The other bandits saw that some of their companions were not killed after squatting down obediently, so they followed suit on the spot, throwing away their weapons and squatting on the ground.

It's true that they can't outrun those piers!

Liu Fei and others have been eating and drinking enough every day recently, four meals a day, enough rice and noodles, big fish and big meat, and their mental state is excellent.

On the other hand, those bandits, all of them were yellow and emaciated, and their bodies were thin, and they walked all the way here, and they charged and ran more than 100 meters...

Where else can I run?
The battle is over soon.

Only three or four old bandits escaped on horseback.

These old bandits scattered on horseback and fled desperately. It was really not easy to catch them all.

After clearing the battlefield, a total of 67 people were captured, of which 6 were seriously injured and 9 were slightly injured.

The rest of them all squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

The piers carried muskets on their backs and held machetes in their hands, looking at these people.

"Win! My lord, we won!"

Niu Dali beamed with excitement.

"Won't that win? It turns out that these bandits are so ruthless!"

"Why don't you shoot! This is because the firecrackers given to us by the adults are powerful!"

"This is Luo Sanpao! He has been looting houses in our Shengshunchuan area for many years, and even the Baihuguan can't do anything to him.

It's that simple today, you were beaten to death by us? "

"..."

Luo Sanpao's body was dragged over, and the piers were all watching, all extremely excited.

Especially when they knew that this was Luo Sanpao, people were shocked and some couldn't believe it.

Luo Sanpao has a fierce reputation!

That can stop children from crying at night!

Now, he was beaten to death by them.

Only Zhao Cheng stood there with a cold face.

Everyone gradually noticed Zhao Cheng's expression, and the excitement calmed down, and they all stopped talking.

Zhao Cheng's eyes swept over everyone's faces, and then he spoke slowly:
"That's enough! Happy?"

The whole place was silent.

Some people don't understand why the adults are still angry after winning the battle?
"What are you holding in your hand? It's a musket-loading musket! There is no more advanced weapon than yours in the whole world!
You all know how far this gun can hit and how powerful it is!

If you can't beat a group of low-class bandits with a musket, don't be a soldier, just buy a piece of tofu and kill them head-on!
But look what you guys did just now!When Luo Sanpao led people to charge, some people were afraid and some wanted to run away!

Do you all remember what I said?You can only fire when I give the order!
If I don't give an order, you must not shoot!
This time the opponent is weak. If you are facing a strong enemy like the Tartars, if you don't obey the order and fire first, it is very likely that everyone will be killed! "

Zhao Cheng's voice was serious.

"Who was the first to shoot?"

The air was dead quiet.

Then, a pier stood up and said in a low voice:
"I... I'm too scared..."

Zhao Cheng's face was cold.

"Do you know that today's imperial army is equipped with a large number of firearms, but they are no match for the Tartar army outside the Great Wall.

In addition to the poor quality of firearms, there is another very important reason, that is, the poor quality of soldiers.

Less training, irregular operations, and more mistakes.

Often, the Jin barbarians charge forward, but the distance is still far away, and the imperial army is frightened, so they start firing guns indiscriminately!
Some people even have other thoughts and want to quickly release the gun so that they can escape...

As everyone knows, the more this is the case, the faster he will die.

You have also fought.You know how terrible it is when an army is routed.

No matter how many people there are, they are just a flock of sheep!

Therefore, if you have a good firearm, you must standardize its operation!Have more courage!

Otherwise, even the best guns are just sheep! "

Having said that, Zhao Cheng paused slightly and looked at the pier.

The pier bowed his head, very ashamed.

Liu Fei was slightly surprised.

How did Zhao Cheng know so much?

"Wang Jianming, you are not suitable to be a soldier. From now on, you can be a long-term worker! If you are a long-term worker, you can still have enough food." Zhao Cheng said.

"Ah?" The pier Wang Jianming suddenly raised his head, panicking, "My lord, I was wrong! I dare not do it again! Don't drive me away..."

"I'm doing this for your own good. Mental quality is not good, and people will die when they go to the battlefield.

But also for the good of everyone.The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant nest.

On the battlefield, once someone makes a mistake, it will cause a chain reaction.

For example, just now, when the enemy did not reach the shooting range, you shot suddenly, and everyone followed suit.

Shooting does not achieve the best results.

If you encounter a strong enemy, everyone will be killed by you.

This time I just fired you, which is already the lightest punishment for you.

You go to work hard and don't complain. "

Zhao Cheng was firm.

He must make an example to others.

No matter how much Wang Jianming pleaded for mercy, it was useless, and he was fired directly.

He took off his mandarin duck battle jacket on the spot, put on ordinary work clothes, and was kicked out.

Wang Jianming was dejected, with a dejected face, lowered his head, feeling ashamed to face others.

Being a pier soldier not only eats well, pays a lot of food, but also has a very beautiful scenery.

Much better than working long-term.

As for the war...they had just fought a war, and it didn't seem so terrible.

The other piers looked concerned, and at the same time thankful that they didn't shoot first.

Because they were also very nervous at the time, and looking back now, they are all dizzy.

……

"Luo Sanpao! Is this Luo Sanpao?"

"My god! Are our piers so powerful? They killed Luo Sanpao!"

"Master Zhao is amazing! The war is under the command of Master Zhao.

I heard that Mr. Zhao personally charged into the battle, chased him on horseback, and killed Luo Sanpao! "

"It's said that Luo Sanpao eats children! So that's how it is!"

"..."

The bodies of the bandits who were killed were piled up at the intersection, which was a bit scary.

But Zhao Cheng forced everyone to take a look.

Zhao Cheng was very satisfied with the effect.

Everyone is not so afraid of bandits.

Zhao Cheng was busy dealing with the prisoners.

He rolled out a cart of shackles from the warehouse.
