It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Tens of thousands of Qiraji allied forces surrounded and beat up three thousand Red Fist followers.
The two sides fought from sunrise to dusk, both were blood-thirsty.
In the end, the balance of victory
After all the young and strong men of the Red Fist Society were killed or wounded, they turned to the Qiraji coalition fighting on their homeland.

Except for a few hundred people who escaped the coalition's encirclement, nearly a thousand injured and exhausted old, weak, women and children became prisoners.

What to do with these prisoners?

Under the wrath of the indignant Allied soldiers,
They decided to "fight tooth for tooth, life for life!"

All the Red Fist believers who died in battle or were captured,

All of them were nailed to wooden racks on both sides of the main road from Qilabang to the county town.

The dead believers are easy to deal with, no matter how much they are tortured, they don't feel anything.

But the captives were pitiful.

Their palms, ankles, and shoulder blades were all nailed down, making them unable to move.

Miserable moans and wails were heard everywhere...

The longest record of a person surviving without food or water is seven days.
The purpose of the Qira coalition was not only revenge, but also a clear warning to the Red Fist Society.
When the news reached the Red Fist Club headquarters, it naturally caused great indignation among the club's top leaders and followers.

As the saying goes, one's stance determines right and wrong. The Red Fist Society believers naturally think that the man is wrong.

In order to uphold justice and promote the Red Fist spirit, all "traitors" must be killed!
"Go to Qirabang and rescue our brothers and sisters!"

"Gather the brothers, kill all the Qina people, and take revenge!"

"Kill, kill, kill! Don't let any traitor go..."

"Good! Kill them! Kill them all, and the whole Qirabang will be pure!"

Amid the excitement, the master hiding behind the scenes,
He immediately sent orders to the other eight branch temples, asking all believers to launch a unified attack.

Thirty to forty thousand believers were mobilized and flocked to Qilabang from all directions.

Judging from the distance, the Red Fist Society’s large group will enter the Qilabang territory in about two or three days.

When the top leaders of Qilabang got the news, they were not willing to be outdone.
Calling on all Qila people to stand up, resist the Red Fist Society together, and defend their homes.

At the call of the five major forces, another 20,000 to 30,000 people stood up.
At this point, a large-scale melee involving nearly 100,000 people is about to begin.

Lu Yuan naturally couldn't sit idle, so he took his parents and sister to the Chihe Honeycomb Briquette Factory just in case.

In addition, many guys, including Mantun and Xiuniang,
They were also worried that their villages would be harmed by the Red Fist Society, so they brought their families here as well.

As a result, the number of employees at the honeycomb coal factory exceeded 200, including more than 60 young and strong people.

In order to strengthen the factory's defense, Lu Yuan immediately organized all the workers.
A large part of it is infrastructure construction.

For example, the walls and factory gates were heightened and reinforced, and guardhouses were built at the four corners.

They also dug trenches outside and built a pressurized well in the yard.

There is also a small part of the equipment.

For example, making shields, long swords, spear tips, half-body plate armor, etc.

Xiuniang led the women,
They dragged coal carts to the city and purchased large quantities of grain, vegetables, fish, meat, eggs, common medicines and other daily necessities.

Lu Yuan used almost all of his earnings to subsidize the project, and finally everything was ready.

Shen Danfeng suddenly asked:
"Brother, you do this,
Do you think that in this battle, our people will lose to the Red Fist Society?"

Shen Beixuan smiled and said:
"Victory or defeat often depends on a single thought.

If our country and other forces are equal in strength, we will be in a tie. If I am strong and they are weak, I will win!

In addition, this is just for the sake of preparing for a rainy day.

It will be good for everyone to be prepared early..."

The young men dug trenches outside, piled the earth into the yard, and built a wall as high as a person.
The entire courtyard is divided into compartments of different sizes, all connected by walkways.

Looking down from the sky, the Chihe Honeycomb Briquette Factory looked like a big maze... This was the effect Lu Yuan wanted.

"Hey, Tunnel Warfare, Hey Tunnel Warfare..."

On the third day, tens of thousands of Red Fist Society followers gathered in the state.

They shouted and cursed,

There are even various rituals performed.

In short, all kinds of provocative words and deeds are exhausted.
However, the backbone of the Red Fist Society,

Has not launched an attack yet, but is waiting patiently,
Waiting for other branches to send more believers to participate in the decisive battle,

The next day, more than 10,000 Red Fist Society followers arrived.
The newly-appointed left and right guardians, including the new senior brother and others...

They all said that the number of people would definitely reach 30,000.

When the time comes, we will launch an attack, defeat the Qira coalition in one fell swoop, and avenge our brothers and sisters on the wooden shelf!
At this time, there were almost no Red Fist Society followers left alive on the wooden racks...

Alas, we are poor people, why are we so eager to kill each other? !

After three days and three nights of rush work, the Chihe Honeycomb Briquette Factory finally dug a slanted trench outside the wall.

It is certainly not as wide and deep as the moat.
However, the slope dug out under Lu Yuan's guidance was the most difficult terrain for the attacker to take advantage of.
Although it is easy to fill, it is not suitable for large-scale attacks.

The purpose of fortifications is not to stop the enemy,

Instead, they stick to each other to the maximum extent, making them unable to stop, but it would be a pity to abandon them.

In fact, anyone with a little common sense can see that

The most suitable place to attack the Chihe Honeycomb Briquette Factory is the main entrance.

First of all, the soil here is relatively solid, and it faces the main road, so transportation is convenient and the site is more open.

Well, we often say, put yourself in someone else's shoes.
In other words, you need to think from your opponent's perspective or situation.
What actions will they take?
It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm, to like easy things and to be afraid of difficulties.
Therefore, if the Red Fist Society could really defeat the coalition forces, there was a 90% chance that they would attack the city.
Then, the Chihe Honeycomb Briquette Factory near the North Gate will be more conspicuous.

It is very likely to become a point of attack by the Red Fist Society, so Lu Yuan had to take precautions early.
Someone wants to ask, why didn’t you take your family and hide in Chihe Village?
There is nothing in Chihe Village, what can we use to build fortifications?
By the way, many people are prepared to take their families and flee if the Red Fist Society attacks them... Do you know what "fleeing" means?

That is, neighbors took their families together to escape the war, fled to other places, and then returned to their hometown after the war was over.

Don’t think it’s easy to “run away”, because you will need to wander outside for ten days, half a month, or even longer.

Eating, drinking and sleeping for the whole family become problems. If they get sick, the chances of survival are slim.
In addition, when people run away in groups and face a shortage of food and clothing, many ugly and sinful things will inevitably happen.

Neighbors who are usually friendly and cordial may stab you in the back just to survive.

Throughout history, whenever there was a disaster, there were countless tragedies of cannibalism.

At that time, in that environment, most people would turn into beasts... It's so scary!

Therefore, Lu Yuan brought his family and friends to the factory. After all, it is close to Bangcheng and is safer.

Some people will definitely wonder, Bangcheng is definitely more solid and safer than the honeycomb coal factory, so why doesn't Lu Yuan go into the city to hide?

There is a military term here, called "the power of the corner".
What do you mean?
Based on the scattered terrain,
Force the enemy to disperse its forces, making it difficult for it to concentrate its forces, thus thwarting the enemy's offensive.

The honeycomb coal factory is very large, at least several thousand square meters, enough to accommodate thousands of people for half a month.

Moreover, it is only 200 meters away from the north gate of Bangcheng.

When Lu Yuan received the news from Judy that the Red Fist Society was about to launch a large-scale sweep, he designed this "defense counterattack" plan. At present, it seems that everything is under his control.

On the fourth day, at dawn, more than 30,000 followers of the Red Fist Society divided into three groups and launched a fierce attack on the Chila coalition forces.

When the enemy comes, we will fight back; when the water comes, we will build a wall.
Both sides held their breath, killing each other with blood flowing everywhere, and the corpses were piled up in a sea of ​​blood.
The battle soon became a stalemate, like a huge meat grinder.
At noon, the Red Fist Society discovered the weakness of the Li couple's small number of people, and mobilized a large number of troops to attack them in turns.
It took less than three quarters of an hour for the Li couple to collapse and be defeated.
A gap was opened in the Qiraji coalition's defense line.
Although the three Zhang brothers tried their best to rescue him,
But the Red Fist Club was like a chicken with blood.

Amid the crazy howling of "Lotus Mother, divine power protects the body",

They launched continuous attacks at all costs.

Soon, half an hour later, the Zhang brothers' formation began to waver.
Then, they retreated... This retreat exposed the flank of the Zoroastrians.
Finally, the chain reaction caused Zoroastrianism to be caught in a bitter battle on two fronts, and the situation was precarious.
The forces of both sides were originally evenly matched.
After losing two troops in succession, the Qiraji coalition fell into a passive position.
As ordinary people, our biggest habit is to "follow the crowd".
When the situation is good and the wind is in your favor, one person can beat ten.
However, when faced with an unfavorable situation, often ten people can’t beat one…

The Zoroastrians were not a monolithic organization. The four or five thousand men under the command of the three assassins were better.

However, the other several thousand people were all large and small groups, with almost no cohesion.

Therefore, under the Red Fist Society's desperate and crazy attack,
Some Zoroastrians were panicking, and many of them were working without putting in any effort, hiding behind.

This led to the gradual isolation of the brave and strong, forming "salients".
The followers of the Red Fist Society, due to their ignorance and superstition, shouted various slogans, fought desperately with red eyes,
Even if they exchanged one for one, or even injured for injured, it didn't take long for the "key figures" of Zoroastrianism to be eaten one by one.

This resulted in more people with no confidence in Zoroastrianism, while the Red Fist Society became more and more courageous.
Finally, at a critical point, the Zoroastrian defense position collapsed.
After the chaos occurred, the three assassins were unable to organize an effective second-line defense position immediately.
This led to a total rout... Thousands of people ran back together.

Even if someone didn't want to escape, they were swept along by the crowd and away from the defensive position.

The Red Fist Society would not miss such a great opportunity and immediately ordered a general attack.

As a result, the shouts from all over the mountains filled the sky.

"Mother Lotus, protect me with your magical powers!
The Japanese are defeated! Kill them! Charge!
Avenge our brothers and sisters! Kill all the traitors!"

The three assassins looked at each other, and finally, they sighed three times, and quickly retreated with their own people.
The old Zhu family and the captain of the Qila city defense army knew that the situation was hopeless, so they retreated to Bangcheng together.

The Red Fist Society paid 5,000 casualties in exchange for a complete victory.

All in great surprise and madness,

They gathered in groups of three or five, and brutally hunted down the lone and wounded soldiers of the Qira coalition.

Among them, the main force of the Red Fist Society hated Zoroastrianism to the core.

Not only did they send out two branches to chase after them, but they also sent out two branches to encircle them from the left and right. Judging from their posture, they were planning to annihilate them completely!
Fortunately, the three killers followed Lu Yuan's instructions.

A group of die-hard fans were trained and they united closely around the three killers, protecting their leader while fighting and retreating.

In other aspects, the various branches of the Red Fist Society pursued freely and arbitrarily.

Many people chased after them and rushed into villages, towns and markets, looting innocent people, slaughtering and raping them in unspeakable ways.

The Zhu family produced talented people. Zhu Yingjun led nearly two hundred musketeers.

Together with the 100 musketeers of the city defense army, they retreated in an orderly manner towards the south gate of Bang City.
According to the prior arrangement, the Zhu family guarded the south gate.

The three brothers of the Zhang family and the couple of the Li family defended the west gate.

The city defense army and the Zoroastrians guarded the east gate and the north gate respectively.

However, because the battlefield is in the south of the city,

Therefore, the captain of the city defense army led the main force to defend the south gate and hold back the Red Fist Society army.

All coalition forces went around to the east and west gates on both sides and waited until they entered the city before changing their guard.

Therefore, when the allied troops retreated to the south gate, they suddenly dodged to the sides.

The Red Fist Society pursued them and ran straight into the South Gate guards.

On the south gate wall, there were two hundred musketeers waiting for the enemy to attack.
When thousands of Red Fist followers rushed to the city,

The captain shouted:
"Brothers, fight for me!
Kill a fat man and get a three-dollar reward!
Ten dollars for killing a leader! No upper limit! "

"Hurrah!"

Two hundred musketeers stretched out their gun barrels from the battlements and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
"Clap clap clap..."

Because the city was so crowded with people, you could almost hit it with your eyes closed.
Suddenly, more than a hundred people fell down.

The captain and squadron leader used various rifles to shoot at the leader of the Red Fist Society.

"Snap! Bang! Dada!"

However, the killing by the city defense army not only failed to deter the Red Fist Society believers, but also aroused their brutality.
"Kill them! Those traitors with foreign guns deserve to die!"

"We will definitely skin you traitors and tear out your tendons!"

"When I invade the city, I will chop your whole family into pieces and feed them to the dogs..."

Seeing all his men were hit by ammunition,

The captain gave the order again: "Ready, aim, fire!"

"Bang bang bang bang..."

A large cloud of smoke rose up, and more than a hundred people fell down under the city.

In this way, a total of five rounds of volleys were fired.
At the very least, the Red Fists would suffer 600 to 700 casualties... mainly because the followers were too densely packed.

Basically, all the fanatics and brave men in these two branches were wiped out by the city defense soldiers.

At this time, the Red Fist believers discovered that

The city wall of Bangcheng is more than five meters high. After the city gate is closed, it is impossible to break it open.

As luck would have it, they didn't have any engineering equipment.

This is simply equivalent to standing under the city and being a sitting duck... This cannot be changed by human power!

Finally, someone realized that they couldn't be so stupid anymore...

"Retreat, retreat! The Japanese foreign rifle team is too powerful... retreat... quickly..."

When the Red Fist followers retreated, the Qira City Defenders chased them and fired a volley of gunfire.
"Boom bang bang bang bang..."

At least seventy or eighty people fell, and the Red Fist followers ran even faster...

The city defense soldiers reloaded their ammunition, and there were almost no people outside the South Gate.

The captain immediately dispatched a hundred gunners to support the east and west gates respectively...

Fortunately, the Red Fist Society's main force was at the South Gate, and there were far fewer at the East and West Gates.
Except for more than a thousand elite Zoroastrians who turned to the north gate, most of the coalition forces entered the city smoothly.

A main force of the Red Fist branch followed Lu Yuan's eldest disciple relentlessly until they entered the Chihe Honeycomb Coal Factory.
There were about 2,000 Red Fist followers who followed.
The leader of the Red Fist Altar looked at the honeycomb briquettes factory and laughed: "These idiots are ridiculous!"

One of the subordinates asked, "Master, why is it so funny?"

The fat altar master was very proud. He stood in front of the gate and pointed and taunted:
"I laugh at those Zoroastrians who don't know the art of war. Isn't it like walking into a trap if you are trapped in a desperate situation?"

About 80 steps away, southeast wind, wind speed level 3

Without hesitation, Lu Yuan placed his rifle on the firing hole on the gate and calmly pulled the trigger.
"Snapped!"

A bullet from a righteous decapitation operation, spinning at high speed, shot towards the altar master... (End of this chapter)
