The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 516 The Proud Zheng Sen

Seeing his two squads pinned down on the hillside by the Qin army and unable to move, Zheng Sen also panicked.

Speaking of it, although his heart is higher than the sky, he only wants to compete with Jiang Chuan.In the process of training this unit, he also learned a lot about command from the British instructors.

But what is learned on paper is always shallow, and experience and courage are accumulated in actual combat.He's just the beginning of what it takes to be an unflappable commander.

But Zheng Sen is not an ordinary person.

He tried to calm himself down, and after careful observation, he found that the mountain on the right was a little higher than the mountain on the left.

And he also found that although the enemy on the top of the mountain has the upper hand now, the firepower is not too dense, so he judges that the number of enemies occupying the top of the mountain will not be too many, at most it is on par with his side.

"The third team rushes up and helps the second team occupy the high ground on the right." Zheng Sen drew out his command knife and ordered sharply.

His intention is obvious, he intends to occupy the high ground on the right first, and then condescendingly control the high ground on the left.

Soon, the third team of the mobile team rushed up the hill on the right with their guns in hand.

Zheng Jiajun, who was suppressed by the Qin army, also began to wake up when he saw the reinforcements coming up.

Although they were caught off guard by Qin Jun at first, after all, they were also the elite guards trained by Zheng Sen himself. After their courage echoed, they also began to fight back against Qin Jun on the top of the mountain.

Although the Qin army had the terrain advantage, when Zheng Sen's third team joined in, this advantage began to be slowly offset by the Zheng Jiajun's numerical advantage.

Bullets flew overhead, and the two sides began to go back and forth.

Although the initiative on the battlefield is still in the hands of the Qin army, the Zheng family army has gradually stabilized its position.

The fighting situation began to become fierce, and the Qin army also began to suffer casualties.

However, the reconnaissance squadron belongs to the elite troops of the second army after all, and the soldiers who can be selected into the reconnaissance squadron are all outstanding.

And in terms of combat experience, all members of the Second Army participated in the battle to wipe out Japanese pirates at sea, and they also followed all the way from the north to the south of the Yangtze River.

More importantly, they played against the British.

Although the British suffered more casualties in that battle, the Qin army regarded it as a great shame and was waiting to seek revenge from the British.

Therefore, in terms of combat experience and battlefield mentality, there is no way for Zheng Jiajun to compare.

Although Zheng Jiajun seems to have regained a little disadvantage, but it is also very limited.

Relying on terrain advantages and precise shooting, the Qin army still effectively controlled the initiative on the battlefield.Although Zheng Jiajun kept shouting and clamoring, he didn't make much progress.

Zheng Sen looked at it with binoculars for a while, and cut off a small tree beside him with a sharp knife.

This is his debut on the battlefield, and he absolutely cannot accept defeat so easily.

"Go, let the main force in the back speed up. If you can't make it before noon, the military law will do it." Zheng Sen gritted his teeth and said coldly.

Although the cronies around him were very tired, the major general didn't dare to disobey when he spoke, so he could only turn around and get back on his horse and charge back.

"It looks like the enemy is going to rescue soldiers." The lieutenant captain of the Qin Army's reconnaissance squadron saw this scene through the binoculars, and said hesitantly.

"Captain, the weapons in the hands of these people look similar to the muskets in the hands of the Japanese pirates, and they seem to have been bought from the British." The second lieutenant captain of the first team looked at the Zheng Jiajun who was firing guns towards the top of the mountain below.

"Not only are the weapons from the British, but these guys also seem to have been trained by the British. Look at their tactical moves, which are exactly the same as the British guys we met last time."

"The students taught by the British guys are like this. Look at them, watching the fight, but the bullets don't know where to go. Many guys just shoot indiscriminately, without much aim."

The captain of the second lieutenant looked at Zheng Jiajun below and shook his head in disdain.

"Captain, these guys only need one charge, and a few grenades can be dealt with." After the second lieutenant finished speaking, he began to call for a fight.

"It's not difficult to deal with them, but you forgot the commander's order. This time we are going to beat up the Zheng family and make them completely honest. So don't worry, when their main force arrives, we will follow them again." It’s fun. Send the order down, let the brothers take it easy, don’t shoot the gun too accurately, and be careful to scare the fish away.”

The squadron leader put down the binoculars and said with a relaxed expression.

For the enemy in front of them, the reconnaissance squadron didn't take it too seriously at all. After all, the number of casualties now is not even more than one of their exercises.

The buglers led by the lieutenant blew the horn with a whimper, and passed on the lieutenant's order.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance squadron understood what it meant when they heard the trumpets, so they began to deliberately release water to Zheng Jiajun.

Zheng Sen outside the canyon naturally also heard the sound of the trumpet, but he must not have understood what it meant.

However, he was surprised to find that after the trumpet sounded, the situation on the battlefield began to turn towards his side.

The immobilized team that had been suppressed by Qin Jun's precise marksmanship could begin to move forward slowly, and it sounded that Qin Jun's gunshots seemed to be a little sparser.

Zheng Sen listened carefully for a while, and found that it was indeed the case, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

It seems that the Qin army is running out of ammunition. They must have moved forward lightly to seize the hill, which led to insufficient ammunition.At the beginning, the shooting was too intensive and a lot of bullets were wasted, and this is only happening now.

Even the sound of the trumpet just now, Zheng Sen, automatically thought it was a signal from the enemy commander to save ammunition.

The more Zheng Sen thought about it, the more certain he was in his judgment. Standing on a high place, he waved his command knife and shouted loudly: "Rush! Rush up! The enemy's bullets are running out, behead one person, and reward you with 20 taels of silver!"

Zheng Sen is in the upper air, and his voice was clearly heard by the soldiers of Zheng Jun who were in the lower air through the wind. All of them screamed as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and began to point their guns at the top of the mountain. Charge up, charge while shooting.

The reconnaissance squadron naturally heard Zheng Sen's words clearly.

The captain of the lieutenant and the captain of the second lieutenant looked at each other and laughed.

"This kid is really good. Take it easy, and hit him when you get closer." The lieutenant shouted the last sentence to the soldiers next to him.

Qin Jun seemed to be really running out of bullets, and the sound of gunfire became more and more sparse. This made the soldiers of the Zheng family army believe in the judgment of their own major general, and rushed upwards with all their strength.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Zheng family army rushing to the front were less than ten meters away from the nearest Qin army position on the top of the mountain, the Qin army's counterattack was still so weak, and the soldiers of the Zheng family army were even more excited. Head work.

Zheng Sen at the foot of the mountain saw this scene through the telescope, and his original worry was relieved.

"It almost fell short. However, the victory still belongs to me."
