"That's right." Everyone's eyes lit up, and the two special forces members quickly poured out half of the charge in the shell, then knocked out the launch cartridge, and then put the fuze back on.Without the propellant cartridge at the back, and the charge was reduced by half, the shell became much lighter.The special forces team followed suit and quickly modified all five shells.

"Be careful, don't hurt your own people." Zhao Shouhong instructed several special forces members. They nodded, each holding a shell, and touched towards the window.Five people approached five windows on different sides, and soon the first person threw the cannonball into it.

The heavy shells fell on the ground, and due to the violent vibration, the unsafe fuze was fired immediately, and there was a loud bang, and ghosts and wolves howled suddenly in the room.The two soldiers behind seemed to be using the wrong force, and the fuze did not touch the ground, so the shell failed to explode until the shell thrown by the fourth man exploded again.The even more frightening fifth shell was also thrown back in afterwards, probably because this shell was thrown quite close to the two unexploded shells. During the violent explosion of the fifth shell, the other two shells were hit. The vibrations also exploded one after another.

The huge impact pushed the doors and windows ten meters away, half of the stone wall collapsed instantly, and even a corner of the second floor collapsed.The soldiers didn't even bother to check whether their comrades on the second floor were injured, and quickly rushed into the hall on the first floor with their Xiakou rifles in their hands.

The stone building hall of the castle is quite large, so several people were not affected by the explosion, but in the room filled with smoke and dust, they kept coughing so hard that they couldn't even open their eyes, so there was nothing to resist.

The soldiers who had been prepared for a long time squinted their eyes and held their breath, and quickly rushed into the house.The explosion just now filled the first floor with dust. The Zhaini soldiers who survived by chance were either injured or blown away. They couldn't find any weapons for a while.When the muzzle of the black hole pointed to his chest, the surviving soldiers had no choice but to raise their hands.

After solving the Zhaini soldiers on the first floor, the soldiers quickly rushed to the second floor. At this time, the gun battle at the stairs was still not over.Relying on his excellent shooting skills, Chen Hu killed a Saarman.That guy rolled straight down from the stairs, and fell to the floor of the second floor, motionless.Due to this blow, the guys on the third floor immediately restrained a lot, and they no longer dared to poke their heads out and shoot regardless, and their firepower density was reduced by more than half.

The explosion just now did not harm the three special forces, but Abu Chaba’s arm was still bleeding profusely, and the excessive blood loss made him feel black in front of his eyes. If it hadn’t been for the amazing physical strength of his usual hard training, he would have already weakened at this moment. fall down.

"What's going on?" Zhao Shouhong rushed up to the second floor with the soldiers. He rushed to Chen Hu's side immediately and found the injured Abu Chaba.

"Tear off his clothes quickly, and I'll take a look at his injuries." Zhao Shouhong became anxious when he saw someone was injured. These soldiers were all in his team, and losing one of them made him feel distressed.

Abu Chaba's clothes were torn, and Zhao Shouhong checked it. The bullet passed through his arm, but did not stay in his body.Abu Chaba was asked to move his arm a few times, and Zhao Shouhong was relieved when he saw that no muscles and bones were injured. He quickly tied the arm above the wound with a cloth strip to prevent further bleeding.

Chapter 36 Ingenious tricks to force surrender

"Whoever brought the wine, the stronger the better." Zhao Shouhong turned around and asked.

Abu Chaba smiled and said, "My lord, I'm probably the only one who brings wine in the team." After finishing speaking, he pulled the water hyacinth behind him.Zhao Shouhong snatched it over without saying a word, opened the bottle cap and poured the spirits directly on the wound.

The severe pain made Abu Chaba frowned, but he didn't groan, he knew that Zhao Shouhong was treating his injury at this time.Although he had learned the theory of using spirits to kill bacteria during training, he still felt sorry for his good wine. "My lord, pour less, save some for me to drink." Abu Chaba gritted his teeth in pain, not forgetting his own spirits, showing his true alcoholic qualities.

Zhao Shouhong discovered another mistake of his own, that he did not equip the soldiers with first-aid kits. At this time, he had to tear off a piece of cloth from his clothes and bandage the wound tightly.

"You can be content, as long as the wound is not infected, there will be opportunities to drink in the future." Only then did Zhao Shouhong remember that several soldiers were injured in the battle just now.He handed the wine gourd in his hand to a squad leader and said: "Go and see the wounds of the wounded soldiers. If the wounds are stained with soil, wash them with water first, and all wounds must be washed with wine, and then clean them with clean water." Wrap up the cloth."

"It's my lord." The squad leader left with the wine gourd. Only then did Zhao Shouhong turn his attention to the stairs. The Sa'er on the third floor were still stubbornly resisting, showing no intention of surrendering.

"Listen, Saar people upstairs, you have been surrounded by the Hualan army, surrender quickly." Zhao Shouhong loudly persuaded him to take off and surrender in English, but before he finished speaking, several bullets were fired at the stairs, If it weren't for Chen Hu's quick eyes and quick hands, Zhao Shouhong would have been almost injured.

"My lord, be careful. We don't need to talk nonsense with them, just attack directly. I don't think they have many people and no machine guns. As long as they charge, they should be able to win." Chen Hu was quite worried about Zhao Shouhong's safety, even though he heard He didn't know Saar, but he could guess that Zhao Shouhong was trying to persuade him to surrender just now.

"This won't work. The lives of soldiers are precious, and you can't make unnecessary sacrifices. Every commander must be clear when fighting, and under the condition of ensuring victory, he must minimize the casualties of his soldiers. The thought of being dead is not advisable in my army. Whoever is not raised by his parents, every sacrifice of a soldier will cause a tragedy for a family. I hope that commanders at all levels will always keep this in mind in the future. "Zhao Shouhong's impassioned words made the soldiers next to him very excited. In the history of Hualan Kingdom, there has never been a good official who loves soldiers like this.

"My lord, your words are worth it, we are not afraid of sacrifice, let us rush." ​​A soldier said excitedly.

"That's right, my lord, just let us charge." Other fighters also responded one after another.Soldiers die for their confidantes, and to meet such a good officer, they feel that all their hard work is worthwhile, and they also believe that even if they die in battle, such an officer will take good care of his family.

"Absolutely not." Zhao Shouhong stopped them with a stern voice: "Wars do not rely on brute force, but wisdom. If you don't have outstanding creativity, you are not a good soldier. I know you are the best fighters, yes You will not be afraid of death, but if you are not afraid of death, it does not mean that those Saar people are not afraid of death. In the minds of people in the Western Continent, surrendering is not something shameful."

"That's right, they don't have the consciousness to die." Zhao Shouhong's eyes lit up as he spoke, and he slapped himself on the thigh.

"My lord, you want to..." Suo Lang Wangdui looked at Zhao Shouhong strangely.

Zhao Shouhong smiled slightly and said, "I will speak in Saar for a while, and then you all stamp your feet together to make half of the people retreat downstairs, and those Saar people will naturally surrender."

"Is there such a thing?" The officers and soldiers all stared wide-eyed, not knowing what kind of dragon formation this lord is going to set up.

Zhao Shouhong leaned up slightly, and deliberately shouted loudly in Saar language to the upstairs: "If the enemy refuses to surrender, we will not be polite. All soldiers withdrew from the stone building and brought the captured cannons. Let's take the stone The building collapsed, let them all go to see God." After Zhao Shouhong finished speaking, he waved to the soldiers, everyone understood, everyone stamped their feet heavily, and half of them started to run downstairs.

"Surrender, we surrender." There was a rush of Saar, obviously several people were talking at the same time, and then several pistols were thrown down from the stairs, making clanking noises.Under the urging of Zhao Shouhong in Saar language, the four Saar officers walked down slowly with their heads in their hands.At first, a Saar said in Saar: "We surrendered, and we demanded the proper treatment of captives."

Zhao Shouhong stood up with a smile and said: "I accept your surrender, please report your military positions and names."

"Major Jim Edwards."

"Captain James Brown."

"Captain Alan Green."

"Second Lieutenant James George, we still have a companion, but he is dead." The four Saar officers reported their military positions and names one after another.

"Very good, I accept your surrender on behalf of the Hualan army. After disarming, you will receive the treatment you deserve." Zhao Shouhong said with a smile. For him, he didn't want to treat his subordinates as the Houjin army, so As long as it is not a formal occasion, he will follow his previous habits and call his party Hualan Kingdom or Hualan Army.

"My lord, what are you talking about with them?" Suo Langwangdui was confused.

"I am communicating with them in Saar language. They are all Saar officers and have surrendered now. Take away all their weapons, and then take care of them, but pay attention to food and drink, and let them live as comfortably as possible Some." Zhao Shouhong laughed.

"My lord, we captured these Saar captives, and we still want to make them comfortable?" Suo Langwangdui couldn't figure it out. In their thinking, the captured people were to be disposed of by the victors at will, which is usually for them ill.

"Just do as I say, these Saar captives are still useful to me, don't abuse them. Tell the brothers, as long as they don't escape, do as they please." Zhao Shouhong ordered.Although Suolang Wangdui couldn't figure it out, Zhao Shouhong had already issued an order, and he would carry it out as usual.

"Hey, look at how powerful your lord is, you can actually speak the words of the Saar people, and I will learn from them in the future." Supporting his arms that were hung up, Abu Chaba followed several Saar captives, muttering as he went downstairs .

Chapter 37 Ready to move

"You are the only one who still learns Saar?" Xiao Jun, a member of the Special Forces next to him, teased, "Your study is a big problem for the entire Special Forces team. I think you should learn Hualan well first."

Abu Chaba said: "I promise to study hard in the future, and I will never hold back the Special Forces."

Another special forces member, Wu Chengfei, asked curiously, "What are you doing learning Saar?"

"What to do? If I capture Saar as a prisoner in the future, I can deal with nonsense for a while." Abu Chaba spread his hands, causing the others to burst into laughter.

The four Saar officers were taken down, and the Saar officer who was killed was burned on the spot, and the ashes were collected and handed over to his four companions. The Saar officers expressed their gratitude for this.As for the dead Zhaini soldiers, they were not treated so well. They were directly piled together and burned to ashes, and then dug a big pit and buried them.

Zhao Shouhong made a fortune this time, not only seized more than 300 Phil rifles and two Mark machine guns (one was blown out), but also two field guns and five M1900 Browning pistols, ammunition It is piled up like a mountain.

Hearing that the Saar invading army was wiped out, the local aboriginal people rushed to tell the news, and they sent food to the soldiers one after another to express their inner gratitude. Zhao Shouhong thanked them one by one, and paid the price according to the price and did not treat any aboriginal people badly. .It was the first time for this company composed of Abbess people to feel the admiration from their compatriots, so they were even more convinced by Zhao Shouhong.

After thanking the local Abbess, Zhao Shouhong led the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, escorted four Saar officers and a dozen or so Zhaini captives and set off on the road.Due to the timely treatment of those wounded on our own side and the disinfection with strong alcohol, the wounds have not deteriorated for the time being, which is enough for them to go to Batang County for treatment by doctors.The few wounded Zhaini soldiers could only fend for themselves. Later, when they returned to Batang County, only seven of the dozen or so Zhaini soldiers were dead.

Just when Zhao Shouhong led his troops to wipe out Saar's troops, the situation in Batang County was already quite critical.The nearby counties are different from Batang, where they are all ruled by local lords. Under Zhao Shouhong's various policies to benefit the people, the living standards of the Tibetans in Batang County have improved rapidly, which makes it inevitable for the Tibetans in other areas. Feeling upset.

Zhao Shouhong used various new laws to reduce the burden on the Abbess as much as possible, but those lords obeyed and violated, so that the Abbess got very little benefit.Regarding this situation, Zhao Shouhong had expected it a long time ago. He deliberately did not interfere with the actions of other lords, but only sent people to publicize the policy, so that all the barbarians were aware of Lord Daotai's decree.

This move was very clever, and the attention of many aboriginal people was diverted. They didn't care about the hatred of the Hualan people from outside, and began to turn their resentment towards the lord who still oppressed them.Although they did not dare to confront those lords, rumors spread among the peasants who were serfs, and many people began to change their ways, passively sabotage or even fled.

Zhao Shouhong's propaganda began to be laughed at by the lords as lip service. They thought that the other party did not dare to oppress them openly, so their vigilance dropped a lot.Soon the lords stopped laughing, and the sabotage phenomenon became more and more serious. Many aboriginals fled to Batang County to live in peace, and the remaining serfs looked at them in the wrong way. These lords finally understood Zhao Shouhong's intentions. Poison plan.

If this continues, even if Zhao Shouhong does not send troops, the lords may be overwhelmed by the rebellion of the barbarians.These lords who oppressed the aborigines quickly pointed their finger at Zhao Shouhong. They believed that as long as these policies of Zhao Shouhong ceased to exist, the serfs would naturally settle down. Therefore, the lords under the rule of Ankang Dao began to join forces in secret, wanting to raise troops resist.

Although the lords were extremely resentful, they did not dare to act rashly. After all, Zhao Shouhong had an independent group of Ankang Road with sharp weapons in his hands, and it was difficult to deal with them with the muskets in their hands.The opportunity came soon, and the soldiers of the independent regiment were scattered and stationed in various counties. At this time, Zhao Shouhong led a team to escort the Lord Shenfeng to leave.The defensive forces in Batang County were quickly diluted, which gave them a great opportunity.

The lords secretly sent their confidants to investigate and quickly found out the situation of the garrison. These people thought that although it was easy to attack other counties, they would startle the snake.Batang County is where Zhao Shouhong's policy is promoted the most. Only by attacking the county can the opponent's foundation be truly destroyed. Therefore, the lords began to secretly gather private troops and prepare to launch an attack.

After all, Zhao Shouhong was an outsider. At this time, he had very few eyes and ears in the entire Ankang Road, and it was difficult to grasp the situation in time, let alone Pan Wenhua and others.But before leaving, Zhao Shouhong had already instructed him to take precautions, and Pan Wenhua naturally did not dare to neglect, he notified Xie Mingjue and others in advance to ask them to be more careful.Some firearms were also allocated, and several factories were asked to form factory guard teams, and several military students were transferred to be officers, with the most outstanding Liu Yuanxun as the commander-in-chief.

Everything is well prepared, each platoon is divided into troops to guard the barracks in each county, and the whole army is closely guarded against emergencies at any time.Zhao Shouhong led the team to leave. There were only more than 300 people practicing bravery in Batang County. This made the lords bolder. They began to secretly mobilize the soldiers, and soon gathered more than 5000 people.

There are more than 5000 Tibetan soldiers, which is almost all the combat power that the lords of Ankang Road can dispatch. These people either use long knives or muskets, and they are finally fully equipped. A group of people, led by several lords, Marching towards Batang County mightily.When this team of Fan soldiers from mixed sources entered Batang County, the news had already reached Pan Wenhua.
