Soon, the survivors of the Irish Meng family gathered behind Meng Xin's trenches for a small meeting.

Because a small conflict broke out along the western section of the Mersey River, Meng Xin's fourth brother was shot by more than a dozen longbowmen as a messenger and was bravely injured.

This may be the luckiest one of the Meng family. Although the objective conditions for lacking armor cannot be changed, they have lost two relatives in succession. Meng Laosi went to the front line to send a message with a big round shield on his back, so he saved his life, but the wounds of the flesh and blood shot out of the arrows on his back were inevitable.

In addition, the left ear was shot through and half was knocked out by an arrow.

In fact, this was also seriously injured. He fell to the ground because of blood loss before he even passed the order. He was picked up by reinforcements from behind and entered the wounded battalion.

Only three people can continue to fight in their family. The third brother-in-law is also a messenger, and he is an immigrant from Shandong. He can speak to the ministers and directly find their general Zhao Can.

The family of brothers went to the battlefield, including the seven brothers-in-law, and now there are only three left, and one of them is a son-in-law. If they continue to fight, they will be destroyed.

The third brother-in-law specially asked Zhao Can for a military order, sending Meng Xin and Quan Xu Quanwei's sixth brother back to his hometown, and he continued to serve with the troops.

In fact, Zhao Can promised this matter had nothing to do with the five brothers on the battlefield in the family. He just remembered Meng Xin's eldest brother-in-law. He just claimed the hypothesis with him before the war that his wife had given birth to two sons in Ailan. He wanted to go back and take a look. He turned to start the war and came back. He charged to death in a few days, and now his head was still hanging on the other side of the river.

The transfer order was very difficult to invite, but there was another problem with the family meeting.

The problem is not Lao Liu. That stupid boy was afraid as long as his third brother-in-law glared at him, making him dare not go west. It was Meng Xin.

If Meng Xin doesn’t leave, not only will Meng Xin not leave, but he must also let his third brother-in-law go back.

The reason is that revenge is enough for one person. The eldest brother-in-law is gone. If the third brother-in-law is gone, he will not be able to raise his head even if he keeps them in his hometown. The third brother-in-law is a Han Chinese and he will respect anyone when he returns. The male young man in the family will not be bullied.

That night, Meng Xin limped with a bird gun, holding four heads in his hand to meet General Zhao Can, and asked for a transfer order to get the third brother-in-law and Lao Liu home.

He turned back to the dug small trench.

The four Englishmen not only changed their heads to send their brothers home, but also changed their outfits.

The arrow wound on his leg was sent to the Rebel Army by the Beiyang military doctor from the London Palace to see it, and cut out the rotten meat and bandaged it with medicine. He knew that he was a gun soldier stationed on the riverside, and he also specially prepared a small backpack to contain the medicine and medical supplies to be replaced.

The old fuse-string bird gun that had been smoked four dots was confiscated, and he was also given two new and one old, one long and two short three firearms. The two new ones were flintlocks, one long and one long and one short hand gun.

The old one was a three-eyed gun, not for him to use.

General Zhao Can told Liu Ruguo about their Meng family. Liu Ruguo admired the warriors and also told the entire army the name Meng Xin, intending to let everyone learn Meng Xin's spirit. He specially transferred a small follower for him to monitor the river beach in the trenches with him.

This is just an open statement. The real reason is that Liu Ruguo criticized Zhao Can, how could a person with poor legs monitor the riverside?

The mission of monitoring the riverside is not to kill and injure the enemy, but to send messages to the rear when the enemy forces make a big breakthrough. However, there is a defense zone on the front where Zhao Can needs to defend, which is responsible for a cripple. Isn’t this a big joke?

But now that things have come to this point, he is unwilling to let Meng Xin change his guard. He can only send a young man with ease and legs. If something happens, he can complete the task of sending the message on behalf of Meng Xin.

In addition to these, when Meng Xin returned to the small trench dug under the trees on the riverside, he wore an early Nanyang Guards' standard iron hat helmet and a Spanish breastplate with a bullet dent on his chest. He looked like a regular army than anyone else.

Liu Ruguo wants to set a model, and the living Meng Xin is a good example.

I just introduced to the entire army that this hero who revenges his brothers and released four enemies to death on the front line. After three days of turning back, the enemy was killed. So what's the point?

In the next few days, the enemy came to the river beach where Meng Xin was stationed several times. It seemed that the English rebels on the other side already knew that there was a fierce Ming army musketeer here. Every time they swam over, they no longer had a single action, and they were searching for something with clear purpose.

Sometimes when you see more than three people, Meng Xin will let them go, less than three, and wait until they approach thirty steps before firing the gun. Unless you are too lucky, there are few times when you are not sure.

What's more, he now has three guns.

He had figured out the rules, not only could a team of two people fight, but also a team of three people fight.

As long as one person is injured, the remaining two people will panic. If two people are injured, the remaining one will definitely run to the other side of the river.

What's more, even if the two people are left, there are still five lead balls and a crossbow arrow waiting for them.

The three-eyed gun is a magical weapon in close combat with enemies with poor protection. At least it is very courageous for those who fire the gun, and can also make the enemy extremely timid.

After all, people still believe in technology most of the time. When facing a person holding a bird gun, the targeted person may hope that the other party's bird gun has poor skills and may be missed.

But facing a person with a three-eyed gun, the targeted person even seemed unnecessary to pray for luck.

Even the person who fired the gun didn't know where the three lead balls would be fired when they were released, and where they were aimed. The three gun barrels directly formed a psychological shock.

But after all, Meng Xin believed that the best firearm was the flintlock bird gun with the inscription of Taiping in the world.

In fact, he was particularly puzzled. The flint-locked bird gun and the flint-locked bird gun seemed to have no big difference in production technology and cost, but the role it could play was very different when it was used. So why did the Ming Dynasty make so many flint-locked bird guns?

Of course, this 'no big difference' is not just because Ireland can't make it, but because they both look basically the same.

Meng Xin complained a lot in private, basically killing a person with a flintlock gun, and would mutter to his little follower.

How could they know the pain in Daming's heart?

It's because of Chen Mu. In a very short period of time, he asked to use a fuse-rope bird gun to replace fast guns, three-eyed guns, and muskets as one of the standards for the military weapons of the provincial capital.

As a result, just after these years, Emperor Wanli asked to use the flintlock bird gun to replace the flintline bird gun as a standard for retrieval.

But it’s so hard that the northwest border troops are playing bows and arrows, but you inner guards don’t even look down on the fuses and bird guns.

Meng Xin's persistent revenge finally attracted the attention of the enemy. After many people reported to Drake that the infantry in a certain area would be ambushed by musketeers, they finally sent a team of more than 70 people to where Meng Xin was.

This time, the dark enemy landed from the shore, and Meng Xin, who was holding a bird gun in the trench, felt extremely peaceful.
