Traveler Major League

Chapter 155 Decoy

When Li Kefu led the team to the [-] meters away from the official army convoy, the convoy had completely disappeared from the scattered scene when the official army was overtaken. At this time, the convoy was located at the Sancha intersection in Shishilipu, but it was not in In the middle of the intersection, all the two-wheeled carts and wheelbarrows were tightly connected in a line to block the flat ground between the two mountains. These grain carts were overturned and used as city walls, all the way to the woods on the hillside.

The position ten steps away from the front of the cart was covered with caltrops, and several tiger squatting guns and Fran cannons were also scattered on this front. empty space.

"Battalion Commander, this is not right. The officers and soldiers who were chasing before did not do this. Could it be a trap by the officers and soldiers?" the battalion instructor rode up on a mule and asked, scratching his head.

Li Kefu pulled out the binoculars at his waist, looked at the right side from the left side in silence, and frowned while looking at it, asking: "If every army has this configuration in the future, shall we still fight?"

Now the instructor is also silent, the purpose of their coming is to hurt the officers and soldiers so that they don't dare to separate troops to loot the countryside, but this army of officers is not as scattered and disorderly as the previous ones, and they will be defeated in one blow , On the contrary, it looks good, and it also took out the tiger squat cannon and the Franco cannon, which is indeed a bit of a headache.

"Let's fight. Let the cavalry throw the explosives first. You and I will each lead 50 people to attack from both sides, and fire a volley of guns outside the range of the tiger squat gun to eliminate them." The instructor clenched his fists and said with determination.

After discussing the tactics, the soldiers of the People's Army jumped off their mules and donkeys one after another, leaving a few to guard the animals, while the others assembled into a formation and attacked from the hillsides on both sides. First, there was a volley of guns at a distance of [-] meters.

The bullets on both sides showed an X-crossing shooting angle, but because the officers and soldiers had been prepared for a long time, they all hid behind the car, leaving only a few sentries to check the enemy's situation, so after a series of smoke and dust explosions, few were injured.

Sun Changxian looked at the thieves who were getting closer and closer on both sides from the gap on the side of the cart, and he could even see their faces. The bullets kept hitting the grain bags and corpses in a row, making a tooth-piercing "whoosh!" Whoosh sound.

"Fran cannon fire, disrupt them!"

Each cannon is operated by three soldiers. This kind of sub-cannon is a combined cannon. Since the shells are pre-loaded with sub-cannons, the time interval between launches is greatly shortened, and they are constantly firing at the distant civilian army. The sub-cartridges are fired. Immediately after it was finished, a soldier took it down and replaced it again, but only one was replaced, because the gunner was knocked down by a bullet because the figure leaked too much, and the last one was killed by a single shot, and now no one dared to reload it again.

Seeing that the Fran's machine guns ceased firing, Changxian Sun shouted again: "The tiger crouching guns listen to my orders before firing, and those who disobey the orders will be killed."

Can only rely on the tiger squatting cannon to kill the enemy at close range, Sun Chang first calculated the distance and shouted, "Ninety steps, eighty steps."

Suddenly, the bandits on both sides separated from the middle, and a dozen or so cavalry began to accelerate from a distance, and the speed has gradually increased here, passing through the crowd, these cavalry rushed to the vicinity of the chariot formation within a few breaths, Pull the torch with your hand and throw out the burning explosives.

"Fire!" Seeing that something was wrong, Chang Sun hurriedly shouted, "Fire the blunderbuss."

But it was too late, a series of loud bangs caused heavy casualties on both sides of the entire convoy close to the hillside. The dozen or so cavalrymen threw explosives along the convoy from both sides to the middle without hesitation. The length of the convoy less than one meter away is not enough to explode. When the first wave of explosions just ended, watching the colleagues who were cut to death by shrapnel, listening to the screams and wailing, as the thick gunpowder smoke completely engulfed the convoy, those villages The soldiers fled back one after another.

The gunner who heard the order to fire only fired once, and there was no chance to reload again. The officers and soldiers who were exposed were also knocked down by the bullets, and there was no time to aim. He retreated completely in front of him, and the shotguns from the Tiger Crouching Cannon only knocked down a few horses, because the cavalrymen were all protected by cotton armor, and none of them hit the vital parts.

"Brother Sun, let's run." Guo Shunwang pulled Sun Changxian to stagger, but did not pull.

"Whoever dares to run, I will kill him." Chang Sun drew out his waist knife first, Guo Shunwang was frightened by his hungry wolf-like eyes, Guo Shunwang wanted to say more, but no sound came out of his mouth, he only felt a coolness in his body, and rushed straight Guo Shunwang didn't dare to move Tianlinggai, because he knew that Sun Changxian really dared to kill him to correct the military law.

This kind of stubborn person will never know how to be flexible.

But looking at the heavy casualties on both sides and the fleeing township soldiers, Guo Shunwang was not reconciled. They were all in the middle of the convoy. Although they were safe now, if they didn't run away, they would definitely die.

At this moment, Guo Shunwang and the lame man behind Sun Changxian looked at each other, and they both understood each other's thoughts. Taking advantage of the smoke, Lai Zi patted the old brother next to him with his hands, pouting, and they nodded to each other, understanding.

Guo Shunwang winked again, and Laizi immediately hugged Sun Changxian from behind.

"You..." Sun Changxian was startled and was about to slash with his knife, but his arms were locked and he couldn't move at all.

Guo Shunwang rushed up from the front, drew out the short knife from the back, and stabbed Sun Changxian in the face. The point of the knife pierced through the eyes and went straight into the brain. Sun Changxian kicked his legs, and his tense body immediately relaxed.

Seeing Sun Changxian collapsed in his arms, the lame lost all strength in his hands.

"died?"

"died!"

"Run with me."

With Guo Shunwang's cry, these old brothers who escaped from the civilian army all the way, and escaped from Wang Eryi's army and defected to the official army, embarked on the road of fleeing again, but it was pitiful that they had been treating them dearly. Hou, and Sun Changxian, who was considered a trusted confidant, died at their hands.

"Defeated, defeated." These people took advantage of the gunpowder and ran to the forest behind. As long as they passed the three-way intersection and entered the forest, they could survive. At this time, more ghosts who ran behind them were needed to achieve this Otherwise, without the support of the car wall, it is very easy to be shot by the rifles of the people's army on both sides through this open space.

And the so-called veterans of the officers and soldiers in the panic of the explosion, even when there was no one to command, they all held a brazier on their heads and stepped on a needle. They were anxious, annoyed, worried and afraid. In order to escape, they all swarmed behind them and slipped away.

"Brother Sun, you can't blame the brothers, we told you to run." Guo Shunwang comforted himself while running, the speed was not slow at all, and the lame who followed behind him were struggling to catch up, but they were still short, just like a sports field Generally, more than 100 people start from the car wall at the starting line and spread across the entire Sanchakou open space.

"Chasing." Li Kefu and the instructor led their men to occupy the wall of the car, mounted their guns on the wheel boards and the corpses of the grain bags, and fired salvos at the disintegrated army dozens of meters away. Nearly a hundred officers and soldiers who failed to enter the woods in time were harvested, and the dead bodies were sprinkled on the big pie at Sanchakou like sesame seeds.

Rumbling, a burst of noise came.

"Thunder?" someone asked.

"Fart, officer cavalry, prepare to defend." Li Kefu shouted: "Hurry up and bring our mules here."
