Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Several hundred people. They didn't take them seriously.

Brigade Commander Guo said with a disdainful look, "Men, wipe them out! I will reward you handsomely."

"Yes"

Immediately, the soldiers underground roared with excitement.

At about 100 meters, Brigade Commander Guo ordered a charge.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Capture Shen Hao alive! A hefty reward awaits!"

A dark mass of people rushed over.

Seeing this, the battalion commander who remained behind ordered, "Retreat while fighting, don't let them get too far ahead!"

"Yes"

Upon seeing Shen Hao's soldiers, they all retreated in fear, while Brigade Commander Guo's men howled excitedly like a mother wolf.

Brigade Commander Guo, seeing this through his binoculars, was also very pleased with himself.

It was pretty much as he had guessed.

Shen Hao's soldiers were mostly recruits, laborers, and farmers. These people were timid and had never fought in a battle. They would wet their pants in fear at the first charge.

Sure enough, he proved it right.

Brigade Commander Guo seemed to have been inspired to fight: "Men, prepare the horses! Watch me personally cut off Shen Hao's head!"

"Yes, Brigade Commander."

A single charge resulted in a great victory, and the soldiers on Brigade Commander Guo's side were extremely excited, feeling that the victory was assured.

No one would think this is a trap.

It's just a small county town; who would think so much about it?

Looking at the thousands of men surrounding him, Brigade Commander Guo cursed and said, "What a load of rubbish! Isn't this making a mountain out of a molehill? To deal with one Shen Hao, you actually sent two regiments?"

"Brigadier, it's better to be safe than sorry. We can't afford to capsize in a ditch."

Before the guard could finish speaking, Brigade Commander Guo lashed out with his whip.

"Damn it, what kind of discouraging talk is that? If you ever dare say something like that again, I'll fucking kill you."

"Yes, yes, the brigade commander is right."

"Chase them! Surrender your weapons and you're spared; those who disobey will be killed without exception."

"Yes"

Shen Hao's soldiers were all green recruits, and since it was their first time on the battlefield, they were already nervous, so they all ran faster than the last.

Brigade Commander Guo's soldiers were all frustrated; damn it, they couldn't catch up no matter how hard they tried.

They quickly entered Li Yunlong's ambush.

"Commander, should we fight?"

"What's the point of fighting? That's only one regiment. I want to wipe out two of their regiments!"

"It's the regimental commander."

Soon, when both regiments were almost inside the ambush zone...

Li Yunlong ordered, "Give them a good beating!"

"It's the regimental commander."

The Maxim machine guns, hidden on both sides, finally revealed their fangs.

Da da da!

The firepower of ten Maxim heavy machine guns could fire six thousand rounds per minute.

The bullets rained down like a dense storm.

If Brigade Commander Guo's soldiers were like harvested wheat, they would fall down in swathes.

Seeing their brothers fall to the ground, they had never seen anything like it before.

They were so frightened that they ran away as fast as they could, as if they had lost their souls.

This isn't a war, it's a massacre!

They lost their guns and ran for their lives.

Unfortunately, the entrance had already been sealed off, and they had no way to escape.

The two groups had a total of about 2,000 people, and more than 600 of them died in just a few minutes.

Li Yunlong shouted, "Surrender and you will not be killed!"

Everyone shouted, "Surrender and you will not be killed!"

Surrender your guns and you won’t be killed!

The sound was like thunder, echoing throughout the entire Longxi Valley.

Brigade Commander Guo's soldiers were so frightened that they dropped their rifles and lay on the ground trembling.

At this moment, Brigade Commander Guo had lost his earlier arrogance and was so frightened that he lay on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

Looking at the sea of ​​people, I was deeply shocked.

He never imagined that Shen Hao would have so many soldiers, and even a powerful weapon like the Maxim gun.

Not only did they have them, but there were also ten.

Isn’t this bullying an honest person?

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have dared to mess with Shen Hao even if I had ten times the courage.

An old man hanging himself—he's courting death!

A moment later, Brigade Commander Guo was tied up.

They were brought to Li Yunlong's side.

　4.4 When they saw the mortars, rows of light machine guns, and all the soldiers wearing German Mauser rifles around Shen Hao.

His mouth dropped open in shock.

Holy crap, what's going on here?

Why does Shen Hao have so many weapons and equipment?

How much money would that cost?

Looking at Li Yunlong, whom he didn't recognize at all, a thought flashed through Brigade Commander Guo's mind.

Could this person be the reinforcements Shen Hao invited?

That must be it.

How could a nobody like Shen Hao possibly be qualified to support so many soldiers and afford such good weapons and equipment?

Who can believe it?

Thinking of this, Brigade Commander Guo immediately had an idea.

With a thud, he knelt down in front of Li Yunlong.

"General, I, Guo Changshun, have been blind this time. I beg you to give me a chance."

I'll give you double what Shen Hao can give you, or even three times if I can't give you three times.

"Just, General, spare my life."

78. Yuan Shikai appointed a brigade commander!

Looking at Li Yunlong, Guo Changshun felt a little puzzled.

No one in the entire Guangdong province had ever heard of this person.

With this equipment and manpower, let alone a brigade commander, even a division commander would be slaughtered.

If Li Yunlong were to bring out those three field guns, this guy would probably be scared to death.

In Guo Changshun's mind, Li Yunlong was definitely the reinforcements that Shen Hao had invited.

How could they possibly be Shen Hao's men?

Since they were invited, there must be a price to pay.

As long as you can afford it, you can have anything.

Li Yunlong glanced at Guo Changshun and said, "You're a complete waste of money. I prepared for so long, and you surrendered in less than half an hour. You have no sense of accomplishment at all. How did you lead your troops?"

Guo Changshun's lips twitched. Isn't this how all soldiers are these days?
