Chapter 184 The army builds a fort

Wang Quan counted and found that there were 47 water bandits coming, but the water bandits were worse than the Bu Bandits after leaving the water. Wang Quan had seven riding archers on the side, and the most important thing was that the seven had thick armor on their bodies, which had the advantage in equipment. Wang Quan himself had a special one-stone riding bow, and six men each had a five-power small bow. The seven also had sabers, shields and other weapons.

The opponents were forty-seven, all wearing people's clothes. The best one was a mandarin duck battle jacket. None of them had armor, even if they didn't even have a leather armor. Although they were all a group of unarmored water bandits, Wang Quan discovered that this group of water bandits actually had firearms in their hands! There were two bird guns, two rods and three eye guns, three holding gun barrels and a weird ten-section gun, two big axe players, three hammer hands and two wolfbusters, these were all enemies that pose great threat to Wang Quan and the others.

The ten-section gun is a particularly strange firearm, with a structure similar to a firework, with a total of ten copper tubes. Each copper tube is filled with a projectile and gunpowder, and ignites the fuse and can fire ten consecutive shots. It sounds like the firing rate is very fast, but this kind of firearm has a very close range, which is closer than a three-eyed gun, and is very unsafe. However, once this ten-shot fire gun enters the range and has a great power. If it is ten consecutive shots, it will be difficult to hide from the target. As for holding the gun barrel, it is a kind of primitive single-barrel fire door gun. The range is similar to that of the three-eyed gun, but it is a single shot, which is not as powerful as a three-eyed gun.

The other water bandits, holding bows, arrows, spears, swords, harpoons, long bamboo poles, iron anchors as meteor hammers, and other weapons.

"Shot the thief's firearm first, then shoot the thief's heavy weapon hands." Wang Quan pointed to the thief's formation on the opposite side to remind the six guys.

Seven people rode their horses toward the water bandits. They found the seven cavalry rushing over. The water bandits immediately formed a formation. The sword player was in front, the spear soldiers were behind, the archers and firearms were behind, and the last one was the water bandits holding various weapons.

Wang Quan and the others did not rush into the bandit formation straight, but they reached seventy steps away. Wang Quan was the first to arch and aim at a water bandit bird gunner. His fingers were relaxed, and a heavy arrow stabbed the water bandit bird gunner with a sharp sound of wind.

The water bandit bird gunman found that the arrow was coming towards him and hurriedly dodged, but his movements did not keep up with the brain's reaction. The heavy arrow shot by Wang Quan was too fast. It was seventy steps away, and the speed of the arrow could reach an amazing speed of 60 steps per breath. In just one breath, the arrow flew in front of him and there was no time to dodge.

The guy took a step back and the arrow fell a little further. The original aimed at the throat, but it turned into piercing from the chest, bringing up a blood flower. The bird gunman fell back and was nailed to the ground by the arrow.

Wang Quan shot an arrow very fast. He had just shot an arrow and then shot another arrow. The second arrow was shot out immediately. The second water bandit bird gunman pierced an arrow in his eyes. The heavy arrow pierced his eyes, and even the skull was shot through, and it stabbed out from the back of the head wrapped in a red turban.

Wang Quan shot two arrows in a row, dealing with the two most threatening bird gunners. The other brothers followed and rushed into a position within fifty steps of the thief, and shot arrows one after another.

A scream sounded across the opposite side, and in a blink of an eye, four thieves were shot down.

The thief's three-eyed gun, gun barrel and ten-section gun were all very close, so he could not fight back at all, so he could only fight back with a bow and arrow. However, Wang Quan and several of his brothers were shot in arrows, but they were safe and sound, and the thick armor on their bodies protected them.

After a while, all the thief firearms were shot to death, and then the thief archers fell down one by one.

Sixteen people had fallen from the water bandit formation, but they didn't even hurt a millimeter of their opponent. Seeing that the idea was too hard, the thief shouted and ran away with the remaining thirty-one thieves.

Wang Quan shouted loudly: "Catch up! Catch at least one living person!"

Seven cavalrymen rode their horses to chase the thief, following behind and chasing them reluctantly. Soon, seven thiefs were caught up and all were chopped over. Another thief Wang Quan cut through his leg with a knife. Although the knife did not break his leg, it cut off the entire muscle and nerves. The injured thief screamed and fell to the ground.

Wang Quan and his men followed him for a while, killed more than a dozen thieves and captured three prisoners.

During the fierce battle here, the victims there did not stop at all. It seemed that the fierce battle between the guards and the thieves had nothing to do with them. Trucks of soil were transported back, and the rammed earth on the ground gradually increased.

"Build the city first, then build housing!" Li Guodong, who had entered the Xiangling area, was building the city with his 1,500 elite soldiers and 2,000 newly formed refugees.

Even Cao Bianjiao's three thousand cavalrymen put down their airs and assisted Li Guodong in building the Tucheng together.

To station troops, build a fort first. Only by keeping oneself invincible can one develop production with peace of mind.

Han Dashan asked, "Brother, the combat effectiveness of the bandits is not very good. If they dare to come, can't our thousand cavalry still deal with it? To deal with such traitors, you only need hundreds of cavalry to break into the bandits' central army and take the heads of the bandits' first line."

Li Guodong said: "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it! Where can we guard against thieves day and night? I'm worried every day and it's not a good time, so I'd better build the Tucheng stronger. In this way, everyone can sleep at night and have a safe sleep, otherwise it's more uncomfortable to be on guard against day and night."

Under the command of the Ming army, the incorporated refugees dug multiple connected trenches. According to Li Guodong's design, a circle of trenches were dug around the military reclamation area in the military farming area and then surrounded a circle of wooden fences. It did not need to be very strong, mainly to avoid the bandit cavalry from attacking themselves when their soldiers were farming.

In the inner residential area, Li Guodong did not build a strong camp, but just casually pulled up a circle of Tucheng and did not consider too many defense methods. After all, the opponent he faced was a bandit, not a Jiannu.

To deal with bandits, there is no need to defend too much, the key is to defend against attack. With Cao Bianjiao's three thousand iron cavalry, plus his own thousand elite cavalry, they will not be collected for one hundred nights and four hundred elite firearms. Once bandits attack, these forces can kill them and kill them in turn, killing them with blood. At this time, bandits have not yet grown and become stronger. As long as thousands of elite soldiers are not carelessly ambushed, they will not be at a disadvantage against more than 100,000 bandit troops.

The bandits were nothing more than a large crowd. Li Guodong set up a trap near the Juntun land, dug trenches, and lured the Fen River into the trenches. The sharpened wood was buried in the trenches, which made it difficult for the bandits to invade.
