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

Chapter 554 Solving the Bandits 7
The torrent of black steel surged endlessly, pushing out of the camp of the rogues.The rogues were a little surprised to find that this army was well-equipped, and it didn't matter. They also brought several fucking cannons, and there were also seven four-wheeled carriages. There were rows of black steel pipes on the carriages. What's the use, it's not a good thing anyway, it makes their scalps tingle.Liu Xiyao, He Yilong, Yuan Zongdi, Luo Rucai and others looked very ugly. They never dreamed that the Heluo New Army would move so quickly, and the morale of their own troops had dropped to such an extent. The classic black tiger digs out his heart, how can we fight this battle!
The Heluo new army marched forward in unison. Their silence was palpitating, and their neat and powerful steps seemed to have some kind of hypnotic magic power. Even if there were mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of them, as long as the general did not stop, they would be as dark as they are now Walk through it until it's devoured.

This kind of army is the most terrifying!

The cavalry had been scattered in all directions. Due to the narrow terrain and rugged mountain roads, it was difficult for the cavalry to be used, so they did not come. However, the chasseurs and the attached Mongolian light cavalry were like ducks in water in this terrain.Under the stunned gaze of the rogues, these fierce light cavalry galloped up and down the valley with ease, as if they were strolling in a garden.Although the rogues sprang up in the Northwest, and there are many good riders and archers, but those with such superb riding skills cannot pick out one out of a thousand.Needless to say, once the bandits are defeated, these light cavalry will be like maggots attached to the bones, gnawing at their backs and chasing them endlessly until they completely collapse.

Yuan Zongdi gasped when he saw it, and murmured: "What a strong soldier... how did they train?"

Luo Rucai's face turned pale: "It's a good thing we didn't meet them before, otherwise the bones could be drummed!"

Liu Xiyao shouted: "Didn't Mr. Li say that they plan to appease us? Why did they send out a large army to attack us? They don't keep their word!"

Just as they were talking, the Heluo New Army had stopped about 150 meters away from Dazhai... It was clear that there was no cannon to bully the bandits.The infantry separated on both sides, Li Yan, a handsome and handsome Li Yan in fluttering white clothes, came over on a steed Shi Shiran, and bowed his hands to the people watching the battle on the wall in front of the gate, saying: "Generals, we meet again!"

Liu Xiyao shouted in surprise and anger: "Li, what do you mean? Didn't you say that you want to appease us? Why did you take advantage of our unpreparedness and send out an army to attack? Don't you think you are deceiving people too much?"

A young general also wearing black armor rode over and said loudly, "This is my idea."

Luo Rucai asked, "Who are you?"

The young general said: "My surname is Han, and my name is Peng. I am the commander of the Nanyang capital of the Heluo New Army, and I am here to appease you after serving as the champion."

Yuan Zongdi pointed to the dark army, which made him panic when he saw it, and asked coldly, "Is this how you recruit?"

Han Peng said: "That's right!" He looked around the crowd proudly and said: "The champion asked you to surrender unconditionally on the condition of ensuring your life safety and the future of your children, but you refused. I have to say that this is not a smart way. . . ”

Liu Xiyao shouted: "Fuck you! I led tens of thousands of brothers across the northwest, enjoying the hot food and drinking spicy food. What a happy life it was! But if I accept your care, I will have nothing. What does this mean?" It’s better to continue the rebellion!”

He Yilong said: "Yes, if you really want to appease us, give us an officer like a commander!"

Han Peng said sadly: "The Champion asked you to surrender unconditionally, so you must surrender unconditionally. As for how to arrange after surrender, he has to decide. You are not qualified to bargain with him!"

Luo Rucai said angrily: "Then you're still a fart, just start beating, who is afraid of whom!"

Li Yan hurriedly said: "Generals, don't be impulsive! Champion Hou didn't say that he wouldn't give you official positions, but Nanyang is a small place after all, and there are so many talents, he needs time to think about how to install you!"

Luo Rucai said: "Mr. Li, don't talk too much, we appreciate your favor, but your champion is too deceitful, and he has no sincerity to appease him. We have to meet him!"

Han Peng looked around at the crowd and asked word for word, "Do you mean the same thing?"

Liu Xiyao shouted: "That's right! You are just a little stronger than us with your weapons. If we really fight, we don't know who will lose and who will win!"

Li Yan almost begged and said: "Generals, don't be impulsive! You can't win!"

Han Peng raised his hand to stop Li Yan from continuing, pulled out the long sword from his waist with a choke, and threw it to the ground.Han Peng pointed to the long sword and said, "I'll give you one last chance. There's still time to change your mind before the long sword stops swinging."

What responded to him was the blast of the trumpet, and several leaders who were very angry were already blowing the trumpet to recruit their elites.

Li Yan asked Han Peng in a low voice: "Does it have to be like this?"

Han Peng was a little helpless: "These bandits have been habitual bandits for many years. They have done a lot of things like killing people and setting fires to the state. They are wild and untamable. If you don't give them a kick and knock out the hostility in them, even if they accept it, Even if you try to appease someone, you won’t become honest, and in the end you will still have endless troubles.”

This reason Li Yan also understands that, like Yang He, who treats the rogues as masters carefully to curry favor, it will only encourage the arrogance of the rogues, who regard surrender as a means, capricious, and in the end will cause even more trouble. Throwing a bone is the way to go.But he knew very well how terrifying the Heluo new army's lethality was. Once the fight started, blood would flow like a river. He really couldn't bear to think of those hungry and skinny bandits.But what can I do if I can't bear it? If I don't defeat the bandits first, if they suddenly rebel after being resettled in Nanyang, more people will die!

The swing of the long sword became smaller and smaller, but more and more rogues gathered. The gate of the village opened, and the elite soldiers of the old battalion came out with swords and shields in their hands.There is no need to wait for the long sword to stop, their actions have already given the answer.

Han Peng sighed: "I won't shed tears until I see the coffin!" He patted Li Yan and motioned for him to follow, and the two rode back to the center of the army.At this time, the bandits leading the Heluo New Army also showed signs of instability. After all, they had spent so many years licking blood with their swords, and they had other thoughts as soon as their stomachs were full... This army has the most There are only six to seven thousand people, but there are tens of thousands of them. It is not difficult to eat them...

boom!
A loud noise shook the army of rogues, and everyone was shocked to see a ball of bright red fire rising from the wall of the village. The wall made of stones looked like paper, and a large section collapsed!The rogues looked around, and some even looked up at the sky instinctively, wanting to see if there was thunder. In their consciousness, it seemed that only thunder had such power.Before I figured out what was going on, there was another loud noise, and another ball of fire flew over, hitting the wall of the village again, and with a bang, the wall of the village was blown down again!This time everyone saw clearly that the cannons of the officers and soldiers were firing, and the shells fired by their cannons would explode, blowing up a large area!

Everyone was frightened and froze in place, not daring to move.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Some hoarse screams suddenly sounded densely, and the steel pipes on the four-wheeled carriages spurted out streams of orange flames. Fire dragons flew out from them with terrifying roars, hitting the deserted area three kilometers away. People's slopes.Everyone looked over there as if possessed, completely forgetting that they were at war.Then they saw countless dazzling explosions suddenly rising from the slope, rows and clusters, exploding all over the mountains and plains. The thunderous and violent noise shook the entire Heluo Valley, and the entire hillside suddenly exploded. It was overwhelmed by the rushing fire, flying gravel and shrapnel!
I don't know how many people were so shocked that their legs went limp, they knelt down on the ground, and some superstitious ones even knocked their heads violently.Such terrifying firepower and terrifying power have exceeded their most exaggerated imagination. Apart from miracles, they can't think of anything else to explain this terrifying scene!

Yuan Zongdi, Liu Xiyao and others looked pale, with a hint of despair on their faces.Although they are unwilling, they still have to admit that the Heluo New Army has shown mercy. If the seven "four-wheeled carriages" aimed their guns at their camp, their camp would have already been engulfed in flames, with dead bodies lying on their pillows La!
This is a demonstration, very old-fashioned, but it works.

Han Peng said: "As I said, you have no chance of winning. Unconditional surrender is your only choice... Do you want to continue fighting?"

Luo Rucai's lips trembled slightly, but his tone was still very hard, and he shouted loudly: "You are so majestic, don't you just bully people with cannons? If you have the ability, don't use cannons. Pull out your most elite troops and we will fight against the generals." If we fight against the generals, even if we lose, we will be convinced!"

Han Peng glanced at him and nodded: "Okay, as you wish." He pointed to the Musketeers carrying flintlock guns, "I don't need guns, so I will use these 500 people to fight you. Any number of people will do."

Luo Rucai said: "Then we will also send 500 people, lest you say that we take advantage of you!"

Yuan Zongdi frowned and instinctively wanted to dissuade him, but Luo Rucai had already let out the words and could not take them back.Moreover, the quality of the Ming Army's firearms is insanely poor. Even if the Heluo New Army's muskets are better, their strengths are limited...According to their experience, the Ming Army's muskets can only fire one round, and after this round, they will become burning fire sticks. , as long as they are willing to risk the lives of dozens or hundreds of people and withstand this round of shooting, they can rush in front of the musketeers and start a killing spree. How can a veteran battalion of [-] highly skilled warriors fight against [-] musketeers? What are the odds?Thinking of this, he fell silent. It would be better to let Luo Rucai fight, let the Heluo New Army see their strength, and strive for better conditions to avoid being looked down upon.

Liu Xiyao also felt that it was worth fighting, and said: "Cao Cao, let's fight together! I have six hundred old brothers, and all of them are good fighters with one as ten. If we work together, we will not be able to defeat the officers and soldiers!"

He Yilong said: "I have a team of three hundred cavalry, and I will definitely be able to overwhelm the formation of the officers and soldiers in one fell swoop!"

Luo Rucai said: "Okay, let's join forces and let the officers and soldiers know how powerful we are!" He cast his eyes on Yuan Zongdi, but Yuan Zongdi didn't say anything. It is enough for Luo, Liu, and He to join together, and he doesn't have to join in the fun.Luo Rucai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and vowed to make a good show to embarrass this guy.He ignored Yuan Zongdi and was busy dispatching troops and generals.

Li Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now Han Peng and Luo Rucai were in a gambling battle. Its nature was similar to the one-on-one duel between generals in romance novels. This was much better than tens of thousands of rogue bandits rushing over the mountains and plains.The core strength of the rogue bandits is the old camp. Even though each of them has 2 or [-] people, they can actually fight only so much. Destroying their old camp is equivalent to breaking their backbone, and you can't even think about being dishonest.Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Han Peng in a different light. This guy's methods were really sophisticated!
Han Peng had no expression on his face and asked the army to retreat and clear the battlefield to avoid accidental damage. The musketeers moved forward to form a line formation. To put it simply, they lined up in three rows. There was nothing fancy about it, but once they formed a formation, it would be extremely difficult to overwhelm them. ————The military discipline of the modern army can only be described as cruel. Even if the casualties reach 70.00%, they will continue to fight. It is too difficult to beat them to pieces.

The [-] veteran battalion elites are almost half of the elite rogue bandits in the Funiu Mountains, right?Very good, Mr. Han accepted this gift with a smile!
