Chapter 51 Raid
On the night of the first day of attack on Xinjiang Town, Chen Mu led his troops to spend the village in Beishan, Xinjiang Town.
Yesterday, Beishan was the first to be pacified. After they captured the mountain camp, it was only an hour after the sky was dark. Nanshan was only a sound of cannons came. Originally, Chen Mu thought that the soldiers of this camp were just like this, and the results were not as fast as their guards. How could he know that at night, Deng Zilong sent the soldiers to each other and told them that they had suffered casualties and were only 10% of the casualties.
In addition to having two cannons, the firearms were barely on par with Bai Yuanjie's army, and the bird guns were not as many as them. They made the same results, and the casualties were lower than theirs, and even if it took a little more time, it was worth it.
Later, Chen Mu realized that Deng Zilong did not forcefully attack the mountain village, but instead found a place that was easy to ambush in the mountains and led them out to annihilate them in one fell swoop. When they reached the top of the mountain, there were dozens of people left in it and surrendered directly.
They fought quickly, but Xinjiang Town at the foot of the mountain was not so easy to calm down. Last night, the shouts of killing continued until the first half of the night. Even though it was dark, Wu Duan led his troops to fight with the enemy twice, and almost captured Xinjiang Town both times, but failed and could only withdraw from Xinjiang Town in the end.
The mountain mist woke Chen Mu early in the morning. Sleeping with Yi made him feel sticky and uncomfortable. He scratched his back and circled around the village with annoyance. Not long after, he saw Shao Tingda walking out of the resting room with the same expression. When he saw Chen Mu, he asked, "Brother Mu, it's so early!"
Beishan is very beautiful. Looking north from the top of the mountain, it is the direction of Qingxi River in Shaozhou Prefecture. Beijiang is like a green belt to separate the mountain range. In the distance, through the hazy mountain fog, Xinjiang Bridge is bathed in the first ray of sunlight.
The sunlight in the quiet dense forest pierces the hazy fog and casts light columns through the branches and leaves. The fresh air of the soil drifts into the tip of the nose, which may make Chen Mu feel much better - because this is just a fantasy.
If it weren't for the hundreds of corpses piled up outside the village that had no time to dig a hole to bury them just one night, if it weren't for the bloody smell that was still pouring into his nose at night through two layers of sackcloths, if it weren't for the more violent fight at the foot of the mountain waiting for him.
This should have been a fucking wonderful morning!
Damn rebels!
Damn Li Yayuan!
"There are too many insects in the mountains, and they are so itchy that they can't sleep. They are so turbid when they wake up in the morning." After Chen Mu said that, Shao Tingda nodded heavily, obviously also suffered from mountain insects. It was just that time for the Night Flag Army to change defense, Shao Tingda pointed to the Fran machine gun and said, "Brother Mu, you have another shot and wake everyone up. It is estimated that the foot of the mountain should attack the town again."
Chen Mu thought about it, so he walked towards the Fran machine cannon.
Yesterday evening, this bronze cannon was brought up by the Barbarian Army, so Chen Mu went to the town to fire a few cannons under the professor Deng Zilong's cannon. Nowadays, firearms are the same, and it is easy to shoot the cannon guns out, but the loading process is more complicated.
But it's too difficult to get the right one.
Chen Mu is already very skilled in using guns, but he can only achieve accurate shooting within thirty steps. He aims at a target as big as a person within fifty steps, and is sure to hit eight shots in ten shots. If he exceeds seventy steps, he has to think about it. If he is close to a hundred steps or a hundred steps away? Chen Junye doesn't even have to think about it - let the flow.
At this distance, the accuracy that personal skills can improve is very small, basically close to the upper limit of bird gun accuracy, so it will be difficult to improve it again.
The same is true for artillery, but because the shells are large and the targets are usually large, the acceptable range of accuracy is larger.
There were not many soldiers waking up from the mountain village. Chen Mu walked to Franji and was about to observe the town. Suddenly, he saw the town in the fog, as if there were dense troops moving. He looked at the quietness in Wuduan Camp, obviously they were sleeping, which made him suddenly feel excited, and he quickly adjusted the angle of the muzzle and shouted to Shao Tingda: "Torch, get the torch!"
The rebels in Xinjiang Town want to attack in the early morning!
Chen Mu used the process quickly to change the sub-gun and insert the lead wire. After completing these, he grabbed the torch and stretched out to ignite the lead wire from a distance, and then ran to the side.
Just as I ran a few steps, a loud bang behind me!
boom!
Chen Mu almost flattened the Fran machine cannon, aimed at the mid-mountain diagonally opposite Nanshan and ignited the lead line. The shells drew parabola in the air and fell straight towards Xinjiang Town, nearly a thousand steps away.
He would not fire the gun, but he knew the parabola and the reference objects. He fired a few guns yesterday and asked him to record the approximate landing points of the shells on the cliffs on the Nanshan Mountain. Therefore, this gun landed almost without any suspense at a hundred steps outside the gate of Xinjiang Town, accurately smashing into the scattered queue of rebels' sneak attacks.
Xinjiang Town is within a radius of five miles and was awakened by a gun, as if the morning mist in the mountains has dissipated a little by little by the smoke of gunpowder.
"Recharge!"
Shao Tingda was stronger than Chen Mu, so he didn't have any effort to lift the gun. Chen Mu had just put on his armor and removed the red gun and cleared the cannon chamber. He had already loaded the new gun on his side.
Seeing that the enemy was still running in panic and had not left that place, Chen Mu immediately lit the fire and bombarded him with another shot.
At this time, not only were the soldiers of the Man Liao camp resting in the mountain village and the flag army under their command awakened by the sound of cannons, but even the Deng Zilong camp soldiers on the Nanshan Mountain fired cannons at Xinjiang Town at the foot of the mountain after Chen Mu fired the first cannon. Even if the Wu Duan army at the foot of the mountain was slow, they were awake at this time. From the mountain, they could see dense Japanese pirates gathered in the village wall to prepare for the enemy's attack.
Bai Yuanjie walked to Chen Mu with her armor and looked down at the mountain and asked, "Have you started fighting?"
"Thousand Houses!" Chen Mu saw Bai Yuanjie coming, and let the Fran machine cannon be handed over to Deng Zilong's artillery, and said: "The enemy in Xinjiang Town is going to attack the Wuduan army camp. Now they are fighting in one place, and the leader of Wu looks like he wants to defend the village."
"He has less than two thousand people to defend the village, but it is hard to win." Bai Yuanjie raised her hand and grinded her beard under the jaw, waved her hand to the flag soldiers of the Man Liao Camp and said, "Take the flag words at Deng Bazheng, cut off the rear, and attack!"
After the rear, the enemy's retreat was naturally cut off. After spending half a year in the army, Chen Mu could understand many military affairs words. Moreover, his body originally had flag-tongued things in his memory. He immediately asked, "Qianhu, are we going to attack?"
Bai Yuanjie nodded and ordered the Manliang Camp and the Flag Army, and the township tyrants gathered, saying to Chen Mu: "Today, we must capture Xinjiang Town, otherwise there will be many dreams. If Li Yayuan from Heyuan receives news to attract troops to help, he will not even have the danger of defending Xinjiang Town."
The Chen Mu army's flag army and the village chariots combined with more than 80 people were added. Although the Man Liao camp suffered losses, there were still more than 400 soldiers. The commander ordered them to gather quickly, and then embarked on a journey of crossing mountains and crossing ridges to cut off the enemy's rear attack.
Of course, Bai Yuanjie did not forget to send someone to run down the mountain road to inform Wu Duan, who was guarding the camp. At the same time, Deng Zilong recognized Bai Yuanjie's suggestion and led his troops to march from the south mountain to the east of Xinjiang Town.
Two soldiers from both mountains in the north and south rushed to the same destination. Wu Duan's army defended in the camp to fight against the rebels who were found in the attack.
After more than an hour of attacking the camp, the rebels were tired after seeing that the camp could not be captured for a long time. Just as they were about to advance and retreat, Wu Duan actually led his army to open the door and abandon the camp, which was obviously showing signs of defeat. This move caused the morale of the rebels, who were about to collapse, to rise again. The soldiers and generals were all in awe of a rainbow of momentum and led the troops to pursue Wu Duan.
