Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 141
"How many guns do those guys have?" Yang Menglong asked.

Xu Gong said: "There must be about twenty of them. They were very accurate and injured several of us in a row."

Yang Menglong asked: "How far can you hit?"

Xu Gong said: "It's so dark, they can't travel very far, maybe twenty paces at most."

Yang Menglong said: "That's easy. Go, call our musketeers over and let them see what a hail of bullets is!"

Yang Menglong said it was easy, because the bird's gun has a long range, anyone who hits within [-] paces will fall, and with twenty guns like this, and they are defending against the courtyard wall, if they really want to attack him forcefully, they will definitely suffer.Fortunately, the light was not ideal, and those bird guns would lose their head after twenty paces, and there was no advantage in shooting against electric guns. Forty electric guns were enough to crush them flat!

Xue Siming ran over excitedly and shouted: "Sir, leave these guys to me and see how I kill them!"

Yang Menglong glared at him: "You stay here honestly! Those grandchildren have bird guns in their hands. I don't want you to be knocked down by a worthless lead bullet!"

Xue Siming felt that he had been greatly insulted: "Will I be knocked down by lead bullets? The lead bullets that can kill me haven't been made yet!"

Hey, why does this sentence sound so familiar?

Yang Menglong said viciously: "Stay here honestly, or the military law will be used!"

The military law has been brought out, no matter how upset Xue Siming is, he has no choice but to stay by Yang Menglong's side honestly, otherwise he should be confined again.

In the courtyard, the bandits shouted again: "I'll give you [-]%, will you hit it? Give you [-]%! Will you hit it? You should say something!"

Yang Menglong made a megaphone with his hands and yelled over there: "Thank you, but we are not used to negotiating with bandits, you should wash your necks and wait to be stabbed!"

The bandit scolded: "Don't be crazy, boy, if you push us, we will fight with your lives, and we don't know who will win the battle!"

Yang Menglong said: "Playing with your life? Okay, welcome to play with us! Anyway, today either you will die or you will die!"

How can we say that we are dead after all?
The bandits were a little dumbfounded.Those who can be left here to guard the property are naturally the kind of old bandits who are the most loyal to the boss, hang out with the boss for the longest time, kill the most, and make the government hate them so much. They also deal with officers and soldiers less. , but like Yang Menglong, no matter how much you lure and intimidate, you will not be moved, and the only thing you want to do is to kill you. They really haven't seen it before, and they don't know what to do.The looted property in the courtyard was piled up like a mountain, with a total of 7 to [-] taels of silver. Even if half of it was distributed to the officers and soldiers, the rest would still be enough for them to spend a lifetime, but...you have to spend your life!Yang Menglong will not accept their bribes, let alone cooperate with them in any form. He will tell everyone with a thunderous iron fist that he is a person who does not know how to compromise. Have the consciousness to pay the price of blood!

The bandits are still discussing, forty muskets are already in place here, and ammunition has been loaded in the electric gun.Yang Menglong asked everyone to come over, and said in a low voice: "The moon will hide in the clouds in a while, and it will be pitch black, and we can't see anything. Let's take this opportunity to touch it!" Shoot out all the bullets, no matter how many you can kill, just suppress the bandit's blunderbuss! When the musketeers fire, the scouts immediately charge. The timing must be mastered. After the lead bullets are shot here, you immediately cross the wall. Jump in, don't give them any chance to breathe... the wall is not very high, I think with your skills, you can definitely do it!"

The scouts looked at each other and asked them to charge with the lead bullets flying around?This is too crazy, a mistake in coordination, these musketeers still haven't hit the lead bullets to the back of their heads!The musketeer laughed straight, "Don't worry, we will take care of it and never hit you with lead bullets!"

"If you dare to hurt my people by mistake, I will screw your heads off!" Xu Gong said viciously.

The moon seemed to smell the bloody smell on the ground, and hid in the dark clouds, and the earth suddenly fell into darkness.The bandits were still arguing about what to do, Yang Menglong waved his hand, and forty musketeers divided into two teams and rushed towards the wall!The bandits on the fence heard the movement and straightened up to see what was going on——

What they saw was the fire from the muzzle of the electric gun.The musketeers had no way to aim precisely, and there was no need for that. They just aimed their muzzles at the top of the fence and fired. The dense lead bullets hit that small section of the fence, and the masonry slag splashed, and several bandits lost their voices. They screamed and fell down from the fence. Those who were not shot were also frightened by the howling lead bullets, and shrank behind the fence, not daring to lift their heads.

Thirty scouts rushed forward.

The six lead bullets in the electric gun were shot out in a blink of an eye, the gunfire stopped, and the bandits poked out the bird gun from behind the wall like lightning, aimed at the scouts rushing over, but before they could fire, the other twenty electric guns fired. The gun went off.While the gun barrel was spinning, lead bullets were shot out one after another, and the fence screamed again and again. The bandits holding bird guns on this section of the fence were shot in the face or neck without exception, and fell down bloody. go down.In close combat, it is always those weapons with fierce firepower that take advantage. This group of unlucky people are fortunate to have seen what it means to "firepower first, complete suppression", and they are indeed overwhelmed.Hearing the incessant gunshots like popping beans, all the bandits screamed in their hearts: "How many firecrackers do these officers and soldiers have!"

In fact, the officers and soldiers didn't have many firecrackers, only forty of them survived, and they endured it.With a snap of the fingers, all the forty electric guns were fired with lead bullets, and the bandits finally stood up to fight back, but they were surprised to see a series of dark figures leaping up, swishing several times and leaping up a foot A high wall appeared in front of them, and then, an extremely sharp horizontal knife stabbed their chests... The extreme shock made these bandits petrified, and they lost their ability to react. Rolled up and down.Before falling into darkness, their last thought was: "Damn, are these officers and soldiers transformed from monkeys? They can climb up such a high wall!"

Wuyangwei's rebuke was certainly not made by monkeys. They were divided into two groups, one group had their arms crossed, and the other group rushed over at a sprint speed of [-] meters, jumped up, and landed on the arms of the previous group. The soldiers used their strength to throw him up at the same time. At the same time, he also used both feet to throw him up, and jumped up with a hey!As long as you have strong explosive power and tacit team understanding, it is not difficult to do this. But the bandits didn't know that. They thought these scouts had wings and flew over. They were all surprised and scared. They were knocked down by the scouts in shock.A scout opened the gate, and the pikemen who had been waiting for a long time rushed in four rows with their spears drawn, announcing the end of the bandits.Faced with these pikemen rushing in one after another, no matter how they resisted, it was useless. They were forced to the corner and stabbed to death. The bandits who fled into the room could not escape the scouts' pursuit, they were dead!

After about a meal, the bandits in the courtyard were wiped out. Yang Menglong walked in, and saw corpses lying on the ground inside, with blood everywhere, including bandits, Wuyang Guard soldiers, and some servants, For the maid and the children, obviously when the bandits came to kill them, the family members of this rich family failed to escape and were brutally murdered.There were more than a dozen carts parked in the yard. Xu Gong pointed to these carts and said, "The carts are full of silver. I'm afraid there are six to seventy thousand taels. I've never seen so much money!"

Yang Menglong pulled open the tarpaulin on the top of a large cart, and on it were boxes, each of which was engraved with the word "Cheng".Opening the box, there were 50 taels of silver ingots inside. The silver light was so dazzling that it filled the courtyard with brilliance, making the soldiers salivate.Yang Menglong counted it again, and said: "There are 1000 taels of silver ingots in total, 50 taels per ingot, a total of 6 taels. That's right, it was the money lost by Mr. Cheng. We finally helped him get it back!"

The soldiers clapped each other's hands and cheered loudly.Although the money will not be sent directly to them, it will be invested in Wuyangwei's territory after all, and eventually become newly reclaimed fertile fields, newly built canals, newly bought livestock, newly built schools, bathhouses, medicine halls, and so on. These methods allow everyone to share this wealth, which is much more practical than distributing dozens of taels of silver to each person.Among other things, General Xiao Yang will use this money to continue to cultivate wasteland, and the reclaimed land will be divided into [-] acres for each of them. How much is [-] acres of land worth?There will be times when the tens, two or hundreds of taels of silver will be spent, but if there are tens of acres of land, the children and grandchildren will not have to worry about food, and they will be able to settle the account.

In another courtyard, there are piles of belongings, such as silk, silver, copper coins, antique calligraphy and paintings, Taoist decorations, everything in a mess, roughly estimated, there are several thousand taels.Yang Menglong was secretly relieved, this is a good time, all the consumption of this battle has been repaid, and there may be some leftovers.With a big wave of his hand, he said: "The scout squadron will continue to chase and kill the fleeing bandits, and the rest of them will hurry up and transport these belongings back! Don't use your brains for Mr. Cheng's money. Anyone who dares to reach out will ask for his head, but these The ill-gotten gains can be used to give you bonuses, so hurry up and take them away, don’t lose them!”

The soldiers cheered even louder.Fighting against General Xiao Yang was really enjoyable. Not to mention that it was easy to win this battle, you can also get a large reward. I dare not say that it is too much. It is sure to pay them a month's salary. It is too cost-effective. They I'm looking forward to fighting every day...
