Traveler Major League

Chapter 160 Breakthrough
The collapse of these officers and soldiers made Li Kefu and others in the encirclement overjoyed, and the shooting speed increased a lot. The officers and soldiers within the field of vision can basically see two completely different states. They shot a lot, and the rest couldn't do anything. When they retreated, they still subconsciously gathered into a small group, which attracted more bullets.

And the ones shouting at the back were the recruits of Liu Yingyu, who belonged to him, they were not that particular, they all fled in all directions without bringing their heads back, but the survivors were the most.

Seeing that the crisis was resolved, Li Kefu staggered to the front of the horse pit and shouted: "The surname is Tang!" They looked at each other with surprise and joy in their eyes.

"Win?" Tang Mingzhu grinned and asked, the two cavalrymen who fell into the horse pit before him acted as meat pads for him, and the sharpened wooden stick under the pit only pierced his mule, and gave him by the way There was a big cut in the thigh, but luckily it didn't hurt the vitals.

"I knew you were lucky, kid." Li Kefu's excited eyes welled up with tears. He sniffed and smiled, then glanced at the horse pit, and found that there was still some height in the pit. It would be impossible to rescue him empty-handed, so he had no choice but to wave to the subordinates behind him.

By the time a few soldiers hoisted Tang Mingzhu up with a rope, the team behind had already regrouped. After the liquidation, not many soldiers had been sacrificed, but more than half of the livestock had been lost. The remaining mules, horses and large animals were only enough for half of the people to ride. .

"Comrades, the wounded are all on mules, and the horses are left for the cavalry to open the way ahead. Let's go as soon as possible." Tang Mingzhu changed to a big mule, yelling back and forth, ignoring the pain in his thigh wound, without mentioning wasting full time If you don’t want to eat food and meat on the ground, leave unnecessary luggage behind and put speed first.

This time, we went forward until we reached the ambush point of the rear team before encountering the blocking team of the officers and soldiers. Because the speed of the mule team was too fast, the messenger sent by Liu Yingyu hadn't even arrived at this time.

"Get off the horse and assemble." Li Kefu, riding a captured war horse, saw the officer army blocking the middle of the mountain road, and gave the order a hundred meters away, and the officer army on the opposite side also turned around in an emergency to defend.

The leader is Qian Zong Wang Wei. When he saw all the teams with rifles on their backs, he felt that he was about to suffer, so he quickly got off his horse and hid behind the team to avoid being a target. His only purpose was to delay time, so that there was no team behind. The officers and troops crowded on the mountain road withdrew to the tops of the mountains on both sides.

There are two rows of shields in front of the officers and soldiers who adjusted the formation, the front one is a round shield, and the back is a long shield. Only in this way can Wang Wei provide some sense of security. Swinging and charging, the knife can't cut it, the gun can't get it in, and the long cards are covered with raw cowhide, painted with tigers on the surface, and the top of the wooden card is reinforced with iron bars.

There are two adjacent small holes dug in these tiger-head wooden signs, and the two holes are usually blocked by a piece of iron nailed on the wooden sign, which can be rotated to open and close.

"Squat with the round shield and release the arrows from the long cards." Wang Wei shouted from behind. The two holes on all the long cards are used to launch rockets. There are eight rocket boxes attached to the back of the wooden cards. The rear team couldn't use it in the future, and those red-haired savages were strangled to death by the officers holding the round shields. At this time, Wang Wei saw that there was a big stubble, and he didn't care about other things, so he directly ordered: "Fire the rockets!"

Those long-card soldiers pulled out the upper pins one after another, the box fell backwards, the arrowheads turned outward, and ignited. Although it was recorded in "Ji Xiao New Book" that the rocket's range could reach three hundred steps, the actual aim was not very good. At least for the thin formation of hundreds of people in the People's Army, they couldn't even hit a single person.

At this time, there was the sound of "dangdang" gongs again, and the officers and soldiers who were searching for spoils realized it and began to return to the mountain one after another.

Except for the dozen or so cavalrymen, the remaining nearly [-] riflemen of the People's Army lined up in two rows, similar to the tactic of queuing up and shooting, maximizing the advantage of firepower. There was no order of firing, but they followed Li Kefu's order to shoot in unison.

When the officers and soldiers released the rockets, Li Kefu also gave the order at the same time, and saw blood burst out from the crowd on the opposite side, the shields in front of the officers and soldiers were pierced, and some long players who were releasing the rockets were beaten to the ground. It flew into the sky along the small hole, like fireworks in a celebration.

Before the second round of shooting, the three hundred or so officers and soldiers who blocked the road had already killed or injured nearly a hundred people, and they collapsed immediately. When they saw the huge tree, they were all stunned. Behind the tree were densely packed headless corpses. These were the remains of the red-haired man, the remnant body after being beheaded by the army and used as a reward for meritorious service.

Li Kefu's eyes were filled with enthusiasm again. Although these red-haired barbarians are ignorant and vulgar, they have been with the People's Army for a long time after all, and every time they fight, they rush to the forefront and sacrifice the most. After all, everyone still thanks them of.

Li Kefu clenched his fists tightly, the enthusiasm in his eyes turned into hatred in his chest.

"Little brother." When Tang Mingzhu rode a mule to the giant tree blocking the way, he noticed Tang Mingnan's deputy battalion commander who had been shot into grass. He jumped down and hugged Tang Mingnan's remnant body regardless of the wound on his leg. cry bitterly.

"Hurry up!" Li Kefu glanced at Tang Mingzhu on the ground, and then shouted hoarsely.

It was only when they turned the corner that they really understood the meaning of the word "many mountains and plains". The first thing they saw was the fleeing officers and soldiers all over the mountain, while the corpses of soldiers from the rear of the People's Army were everywhere on the mountain road. Everyone is crazy about it.

"Fire, fire!" Both the officers and the cavalry scattered around to prevent the officers and soldiers from raiding, they all opened fire frantically after rounding the intersection. At this time, some officers and soldiers were still beheading the red-haired barbarian corpses on the ground. They didn't follow the brigade to retreat, and became the first batch of revenge victims, and fell down immediately. After finally realizing the meaning of the gunshot, they fled in panic like rats in the warehouse seeing people. In order to escape quickly, Throw away heavy long cards, long guns, etc. here and there.

After recovering, Tang Mingzhu turned on his mule, rode to the side of the team and ordered with red eyes: "Everyone stop shooting, don't worry about this place, the target is Ganquan County, move forward quickly."

Someone shouted: "Stop chasing and killing the officers and soldiers?"

"We have too few people. We must go back to Ganquan County to defend. It is the closest place to Luochuan County. We must defend it, otherwise we will be in big trouble." Tang Mingzhu explained.

"Then, at least collect the corpses of our comrades who died?" Another person said.

Li Kefu glanced at the piled up corpses around him, and felt very uncomfortable, but he still said: "The military situation is like a fire, and the matter is in a hurry. Follow the order of the instructor, and the goal is Ganquan County, and move forward quickly."

There was no more hesitation or delay. After this bloody lesson, everyone knew the correctness of the battalion commander and instructor's order. The first to set off was a few cavalry, each of them rushed back to Ganquan County and Luochuan County delivered a letter and issued an alarm of an incoming army brigade. The rest of the people collectively saluted the remains of their comrades and quickly set off on their way home.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties in this battle.
