Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 199 Military Song
When the Qing army's musket formation approached the 150-meter mark, Liu Sheng picked up the assault rifle at hand, said to Zhao Xin, "I'll go and see", and rushed out of the command post with the guards.He instinctively sensed that the situation was not good, and the cavalry of the Qing army on the opposite flank seemed to be ready to move.

The snow is still falling, and the black land where no one walks has turned into a piece of white.Liu Sheng sighed, and ran all the way to the heavy machine gun fire point between the two trenches.He impatiently waved the machine gunner back away, and stood in the firing position himself.

He asked his guards to notify the other five heavy machine gun fire points, so that they should always pay attention to his position; as soon as a shot is fired here, the other five fire points will immediately start shooting at the Qing cavalry on both wings!

In fact, thanks to Liu Sheng's arrival, otherwise the situation on the western front would be hard to tell!

Most of the soldiers on the Western Front are recruits who enlisted on the front line this year and have no battlefield experience.When they faced the large-scale battle of the Qing army for the first time, many people were already startled by the menacing drums and artillery fire of the Qing army.

Is this the military power of the legendary Heavenly Kingdom? !

The gongs and drums are loud, the banners are flying, and the swords and guns are magnificent!Although there were not tens of thousands of Qing troops on the western front, the power of the four thousand cavalry plus the three musket formations in the middle was still overwhelming, overwhelming the people.Except for hob meat like Monk Zhou, ordinary people are not afraid of that, it's called hell!
You must know that most of these soldiers were still ragged, hungry, and struggling to die every day last year.Had it not been for the Qing army's attack, Zhao Xin would not have wanted to use these people.So even though these recruits have gone through half a year of crazy training, they are still far from a qualified modern soldier.

The result of letting the subordinates drive the ducks to the shelves is that the leader must take the lead in everything, otherwise the confidence of the people below cannot be guaranteed.

Liu Sheng erected the circular sight on the top of the gun, pulled the handle twice with his right hand to reload, then held the handle, and lightly pressed the thumbs of both hands on the trigger.

At this time, the temperature was already close to zero, but Dou Da's sweat was still slowly flowing down Liu Sheng's cheeks.He was also a little apprehensive, now that there was no Thunder God as a buffer, he was about to face a sea of ​​people.

In the command post in the old city behind him, Zhao Xin no longer looked at the display screen. He picked up the phone and connected to the ZU-23 anti-aircraft gun position.

"Remember! After all the heavy machine gun positions fired, you immediately shot at the wings of the Qing cavalry! Drive them to the center and disrupt their formation!"

"Yes!"

"You repeat!"

"After the heavy machine gun fires, shoot to the wings and drive the cavalry to the center!"

As soon as the voice on the phone fell, the third conch horn in the Qing army's formation had already sounded. At a distance of 100 meters, three musket phalanxes began to shoot, and the cavalry behind the phalanx had already begun to march forward.

When thick white smoke rose from the musket array on the opposite side, and hundreds of muskets began to spray iron bullets, Liu Sheng pointed the muzzle of the gun at the right-wing cavalry and pressed the trigger!

"Bang bang bang! Bang bang!" Six rounds of 0.50 BMG with a kinetic energy of 1.8 joules got into the crowd of cavalry in a blink of an eye.

A Qing soldier holding a red flag suddenly lost his head, and the warhead that changed its path continued to hit the chest cavity of a horse behind; The head of the horse under the cavalry suddenly exploded!

The sudden change frightened the dozen or so cavalrymen around, thinking that they had encountered a ghost in broad daylight, and were so frightened that they couldn't even speak.But immediately afterwards, these cavalrymen were shot and fell off their horses one after another. Either their arms flew into the sky with the weapons in their hands, or their upper bodies were battered by bullets; They fell to the ground, and they were unable to move under the heavy weight of the horse.

The headless standard bearer was still sitting on the horse, with blood spurting from his scorched cavity.After a while, when the blood stopped gushing, the headless standard bearer fell sideways off the horse, but the red flag in his hand was still tightly held.

The observers of the other heavy machine guns had been holding up their binoculars to watch Liu Sheng's movement. When they saw Liu Sheng firing, they hurriedly shouted to the shooters around them: "Shoot! Shoot!"

"Bang bang bang!."

"Da da da da da!" The four flat-firing ZU-23 anti-aircraft guns also roared.The chief shooter put his eyes on the scope and lightly stepped on the shooting pedal. Twenty rounds of 23×152mm artillery shells spewed out of the muzzle like lightning, and rushed into the middle of the Qing cavalry with a huge roar.What kind of flesh and blood mill is this, hell on earth!

When the artillery shells began to roar, the blood mist and the minced meat mixed with men and horses had exploded and rolled in the air. The cavalry and horses of the Qing army who were hit did not even have a chance to scream, and were directly smashed into pieces. Meat.Within a ten-meter radius of the impact point, broken limbs with bones, the corpse of Youzi's struggling horse, and blood were all over the ground.

The surrounding cavalry of the Qing army screamed in fright, and the attack formation that had been formed immediately fell into chaos; they instinctively drove their horses to shrink towards the middle of the formation.

Hearing the whistling sound of shells, the frontier archers behind the three phalanx Qing army musketeers all looked at each other. They couldn't see what happened on the two wings at all, and wondered why the artillery battalion fired ahead of time?Is the co-leader of the artillery battalion fed up this morning or tired of living?

In the headquarters, Zhao Xin shouted to Jiuzang on the phone: "Start to fight back!"

Zhao Xin didn't intend to wait any longer, and he didn't bother to think about where the third Qing army was.At this moment, he figured it out. On such a large battlefield, he and Liu Sheng belonged to the first level of the club, and had no command experience at all; and the soldiers under him were not veterans, let alone battle experience.Then get rid of the most threatening Qing army in front of you first, and then talk about other things!
As for Fukang'an, when he arrives, let him taste what it means to shake the world!

"Yes! Start fighting back!" Jiuzang on the phone replied resolutely.

"Beep~~! Beep~~!" As a sharp whistle sounded from the middle of Beihai Town's position, the company commanders of the companies also blew the whistles hanging around their necks one after another.

"Quick! Quick! Grab your gun and get ready to shoot!"

Hearing the whistle, Monk Zhou quickly raised his gun and lay down on the trench, aiming straight ahead.The platoon leader Yaichiro bent over and walked behind the soldiers, saying the same thing behind each soldier like a mother-in-law: "Don't rush to shoot, one shot at a time! Aim and shoot again!"

When Miichiro followed the raid on the Fukang'an camp last year, he had no battlefield experience at all, so he fired all ten bullets when he came up, and he didn't even know if he hit or missed.

When he walked to Monk Zhou's place, the whistle stopped suddenly.Miichiro took a stride forward, hurriedly lay down next to Monk Zhou, and raised his gun to aim at a Qing army artilleryman behind the shield car.

"Monk, don't worry, aim and shoot!"

"Hey! Don't worry! I'll do it to anyone who won't let me have enough to eat!"

"Fire!"

"Bang bang bang bang." More than 300 rifles made a sound like popping beans on the ground, and the sawdust of the Qing army's shield cart on the opposite side flew randomly, and a dozen Qing soldiers who were squatting behind the shield and pushing the cart fell to the ground immediately. died, and the Musketeers behind the shield car fell to the ground in the direction of the bullets, as if they had been hit with a hammer, like cutting wheat.

Many of those Qing soldiers who were lucky enough to survive did not even utter a scream. The burning sensation and severe pain caused by the bullet's penetration made them pass out quickly.Several Qing army musketeers who were shot in the limbs let out heart-piercing screams because of the severe pain in the wounds!
"My mother~ my mother~ ah!"

After Monk Zhou fired a shot, he looked at the scene in front of him in shock. He didn't expect the weapon in his hand to be so powerful.The Qing army on the opposite side who was in pain and dying was shot by himself?At this moment, his energy and blood surged, and his whole body entered an extremely excited state, and he could also dominate the life and death of others!

"Junmen! Junmen!" The co-leader Namza got off his horse and knelt down in front of Du Erjia. "The thieves' guns were too fierce, and the two-wing cavalry suffered hundreds of casualties!"

Du Erjia had heard the whistling of shells in Beihai Town, but he didn't know what it was coming from.Hearing Namzha's report at this moment, he shouted loudly: "Drumming! Sounding the gong! The archers are on! After the archers shoot the arrows, the whole army presses up! The cavalry on both wings charge into battle! We must break through the bandit's defense!"

Wu Kanbei, who was standing behind the Qing army's firearms, had no idea what was going on in front of him. Many people wanted to poke their heads out to watch, but they were afraid of military law.Hearing the sound of a gong behind him, and then the leader of the team waved vigorously, Wu Kanbei knew that it was time for these archers to go out.He stared at the triangular red flag of his team, passed through the gap between the three phalanxes, and stood in front of the phalanx flags.

Along the way, the sound of bullets flying by and the screams of the Qing army being shot could be heard endlessly.Wukanbei thought to himself that the firearms of the "Eros" killed these days are really powerful.

Immediately afterwards, drums sounded in the phalanx behind him.These "retired barbarians" composed of border residents did not understand the lethality of modern weapons at all. They tried to spread out and form two long snake formations, but the roaring bullets knocked them down one after another.

The sound of the drums stopped suddenly, and another gong sounded "铛!", and Wu Kanbei followed the others and stood up amidst the bullets.In such a short time, hundreds of frontier archers were shot and fell to the ground.

"Boom! Da!" The drum sounded again, and the drum and the side each knocked once.

Including Wu Kanbei, the rest of the people began to raise their bows and set their arrows, and the rapid beating of drums passed by one section at a time. At this time, there was a noisy and chaotic shout from the phalanx behind them, "Kill~~~!"

"Boom!", the sound of hundreds of bowstrings formed a dull roar.Hundreds of long arrows flew out from behind the Qing army's shield chariot, and fell towards the trenches of Beihai Town overwhelmingly.This is not a cannon that cannot be fired, but a musket that can only cause negligible casualties.

After Wukanbei shot an arrow, he still couldn't understand his hatred and took out another long arrow, and quickly put it on the bow.Just as he was about to ejaculate again, he felt a shudder all over his body, and a somewhat familiar burning sensation came from his left shoulder.Like fallen leaves in autumn, Wukanbei fell behind the shield car; and then passed out due to severe pain.

In the trenches, seeing the Qing army starting to shoot arrows, the chief officers of each squad and platoon company shouted to hide almost at the same time, and a small number of soldiers immediately retracted and pressed their bodies tightly to the inside of the trench; most of the recruits were still pulling the trigger. , the deafening gunshots in the ear have covered the shouts of the surrounding comrades.Amid the whizzing rain of arrows, the artillery battalion of the Qing army started another round of firing.At this moment, the second battalion led by Jiuzang immediately suffered casualties.

Standing up, Monk Zhou saw that his platoon had suffered heavy casualties from a rain of arrows, his eyes were red, and he cursed angrily. Just as he was about to raise his gun to shoot, he found that the bullets had run out; he immediately took out a magazine Good job, pull the trigger continuously at the opposite side.

After firing ten rounds in one go, he turned his head and was about to reload the magazine. From the corner of his eyes, Monk Zhou caught a glimpse of a flash of fire on the opposite side. He turned his head and saw that a gunner of the Qing army was inserting a fire fork into the gun door.

Monk Zhou shouted in shock: "They are going to fire!" After speaking, he fell down into the trench.

When he saw that the Qing army dared to fire again, Zhao Xin in the headquarters hurriedly called and ordered the four forts to fire at the Qing army's artillery.

No matter how the Qing army roared, when the iron bullets weighing less than a catty hit the thick earth wall and the dust was flying, the four ZU-50 forts set up 23 meters behind the position were still emitting orange-red flames. .

Four thousand cavalrymen from Zhasak Mongolia were turned on their backs and their corpses were scattered all over the field.These cavalrymen had been stunned by the fierce artillery fire, and they forgot to escape at first, and jumped off their horses to try to escape.

Suddenly, they turned their heads and saw the big flag of the Chinese army fall suddenly, so they couldn't hold it anymore, and they got on their horses and fled westward.

Duerjia fled, he was scared out of his wits!The fierce firepower of Beihai Town caused him to lose two of his three souls, leaving only one of his seven souls; at this moment, he just wants to escape from this flesh and blood mill!
The soldier in charge of communication held the phone, covered his ear with one hand, and quickly and loudly conveyed Zhao Xin's new order.

When the anti-aircraft gun's muzzle steering was completed, the Qing army's artillery battalion in the middle road had not had time to escape, but it would be miserable!In the ensuing bombing, those gunners of the Qing army who had no time to escape were beaten to pieces. Several bronze cannons weighing two to three hundred kilograms were blown up, mixed with the pieces of limbs flying in the air, and fell to the ground with a dull sound. The crashing sound.As the blood mist sprayed in the crowd, the surviving Qing soldiers were beaten and cried for their fathers and mothers. They no longer cared about the cannons, and dropped their tools and weapons one after another, turned around and ran away.

"Ah!"

As the Qing army on the battlefield gradually disappeared, Monk Zhou sneezed heavily from the gunpowder smoke pervading the defense line.He wiped his nose with his sleeve, the impulse brought about by the intense secretion of adrenaline has not yet dissipated, waves of excitement mixed with excitement, and other inexplicable emotions flowed in his chest.

Monk Zhou opened his mouth to sing again, but this time it was no longer a northern ditty of "Dazao Pole", but a military song of Beihai Town.As the passionate singing sounded, the soldiers of the three surrounding companies also began to hum slowly.Gradually, the singing of hundreds of people became louder and louder, piercing through the gunpowder smoke and echoing in the city of Zhuergen.

"Burning with anger~ resting in the sizzling rain! Looking up to the sky and screaming with passion~~ Thirty years of fame, dust and soil~ eight thousand miles of roads, clouds and moons!
Jingkang's shame~ It's still snowing!When will the hatred of the courtiers come and go?Driving ~~ The long car broke through the Helan Mountain Que~~ Aspirations Hunger, eat Hulu meat, laugh and talk about thirsty and drink the blood of the Huns!Wait~From~Head~Clean up the old mountains and rivers~ Chaotianque! "
