Chapter 63 Shaking the Mountain
Deng Zilong must have seen how he executed the fugitives under his banner.

Chen Mu, who accepted the post of military governor without knowing it, thought so, and swam behind the formation with a knife.

It may not be possible for him to kill deserters, but it is often easier to give orders than to execute them himself, but it is only easier.

It was even more difficult to execute it in person. Qi Jun Xiangyong held his spear and pushed behind the battalion that was charging forward, deliberately keeping a distance of more than ten steps, and kept forcing away one battalion after another that was retreating because of timidity.

No one wants to kill people, especially the Ming army who was eating with him two hours ago.

"If you dare to retreat, I will kill you, charge, charge!"

Even Xiangyong, who had never been in battle, became ferocious, eager to try forward with his spear, and forced back a few fugitives fiercely.

There were shouts of killing and crying in all directions.

The war is stalemate.

Just as Chen Mu understood Deng Zilong's phrase 'don't let them see the boat go', the rebels saw it, and so did Chen Mu.

When the tigers rushed to shoot at the top of their heads, when the guns fired at the top of their shields, when Deng Zilong struggled to fight and killed the enemy with his sword - Chen Mu saw that the last rebel army in the enemy line was defeated by Deng Zilong, and the Chinese army kept retreating , pushing them down the river beach.

Some people left their rusty farm tools and their only weapons, crying and shouting, running through the water, and even took off their clothes and swam in an attempt to catch up with the fleet that was drifting away with the waves, but they could only be beaten by the river. He slapped back to the shore.

The rioters who dared to face life and death without fear of death were afraid, fearful, panicked, and even angry. They didn't need to speak, their actions and demeanor, and the riots on the riverside and even over the battlefield could not be concealed from Chen Mu's eyes.

One after another, they repeated their delusion of chasing the fleet, and one after another they stood up from the riverside again, returned to the battle line in despair, and fought against the Ming army.

Chen Mu could see clearly that these thousands of rebels were abandoned by their leaders.

"Brother Mu, this, this is?"

Shao Tingda came here panting. He took a few cannons from Xinjiang Bridge to the Chinese Army, and then from the Xinjiang Town Chinese Army to the Chinese Army by the riverside. The situation has turned upside down.Seeing Chen Muqi's army holding up their spears to force the battalion to charge, they thought it was an internal strife, and after a pause, they realized that they turned their heads and pointed at the fire pawns behind them, saying, "Pao, five cannons, Bai Qianhu will stay behind to make a fuss, Everything else is here!"

They are all here. Chen Mu, carrying a knife and patrolling to give courage to his subordinates, the brave bannermen who suppressed the battalion, glanced back. There were four French machines, a bowl-shaped mortar, and three wooden boxes of large and small stone and lead bullets scattered around. The five cannons lined up majestically.

At this juncture, guns are useless!
"Push back the Frang machine, that thing won't work, the bowl cannon, the bowl cannon is useful!" Chen Mu patted the back of his head, stuck his saber on the ground and pointed at the Baihuqiben carriage turned aside, and said urgently: "Mangchong, hurry up and bring the two of you to push that frame over here! You guys, Franji sends it over to Wu Duan, and asks him to send someone, to send reinforcements over!"

Deng Zilong's men were killing like a long snake, and barely blocked the rebels' attack on the shore, but it seemed that they would be swallowed by countless rebels in a short time.

The surrender of the rebels is mostly death, and everyone knows that the things hanging around their necks are not heads for the battalion soldiers or the guards' banner troops, but shiny silver.Now the fleet has been transferred away by the leader of the rebel army, and it has become a last-ditch battle. Most of them will die, but they may not die in the battle-all crazy.

The rebels had long since been defeated in normal fighting, but the excellent defensive location on the tidal flats of Xinjiang was becoming a deadly place.

If they were a group of rebels who had just put on their shoes and wanted to earn clothes for themselves when they got off the boat, now they are two or three thousand barefoot beggars, who can stop them?

Shao Tingda, who was running wildly pushing the wooden cart, shouted to Chen Mu: "There is no reinforcements, and the rebels on the bridge have increased their troops. Chief Wu can't stand it anymore!"

Chen Mu was shocked and turned his head to look in the direction of the Xinjiang Bridge Chinese Army. There was no Chinese Army at this time. The guns fired did not know when they got up early and stopped roaring. The crooked barrel of the gun was almost broken. Bai Yuanjie was nowhere to be seen, a gunner who didn't know his life or death.

"General flag, general flag! Bai Qianhu has an order. The enemy attacked the Xinjiang Bridge too fiercely, and they are unable to rush to help." The banner army sent to report the letter rushed back with Fu Yuan, shouting all the way and even ran away with their shoes, "Qian Everyone is ready to fight in person!"

"How many people are there in Xinjiang Bridge, and 2000 people in Wuduan can't hold it?"

Chen Mu's eyes widened, his ferocious face looked like a beast choosing to eat someone, and then he saw Fu Yuan approaching and whispering: "There are thousands of people, and there are people swimming everywhere under the stormed bridge. Keep it, can't keep it."

Chen Mu gave Fu Yuan a hard look, and before he could say anything, Shao Tingda shouted loudly: "Brother Mu, pretend!"

The ax made a hole in the wooden cart that could be stuffed into the mouth of the bowl. The artillery was filled with large stones, small pebbles, and the gunpowder splinters were exposed behind the cart.Shao Tingda pushed the wooden cart and looked over, his eyes were wide open and his head was sweating profusely.

"Rush in..." Chen Mu drew out the knife to look around, raised the knife and roared forward: "Rescue Deng Zilong, let's talk about other things!"

Forty or fifty bannermen bravely guarded the two wings of the gun carriage, and followed Chen Mu's order to rush straight to the place where Deng Zilong was fighting the enemy.No one dared to stand in front of the cannon cart, let alone stand behind it, as the wooden frame wagon might be knocked apart by the recoil after a single shot.

Chen Mu had no choice. He could do nothing but rush in and pull Deng Zilong out. More and more troops were defeated, and his flag army could no longer stop him.

Deng Zilong only had a hundred battalions left, and there were rebels scrambling in all directions, and it was impossible to see how many enemy troops were left.One by one, his subordinates fell before his eyes, his hand holding the knife collapsed, and he suffered several wounds on his body.

He had fought against the vicious Japanese pirates and suppressed rebels everywhere, but the hurdle of Xinjiang Bridge might not be able to pass.

In the face of a desperate battle against a huge rebel army, even the most tenacious fighters can only be powerless.

"Let the boss, the reinforcements come in!"

Hearing this sentence suddenly, Deng Zilong took two steps back, and the battalion under his command took up the position. Turning his head, he saw Chen Muyang slashing and overturning the rebels blocking the road. Leading the Banner Army's artillery car crashed into the formation all the way.

"Mr. Deng gave way to the boss and set fire to the cannon!"

The gun carriage passed through the dense army formation in a blink of an eye. Shao Tingda raised the fire to ignite the cannon, avoiding the far left and right, leaving the muzzle filled with pebbles to point at the charging rebels.

boom!
boom!Boom!

Huge gunpowder smoke was emitted from the muzzle, and the boulder bullets were pushed into pieces of pebbles and sprayed on the front of the rebels' faces. The first few rebels were directly smashed into sieves. .

But there were more than one sound from the artillery, like the echo in the mountains, deafening.

In the mid-air behind him, a large piece of flying stones dragged out a terrifying scream and landed on the rebel formations everywhere, as if they were wiped out.

"Everyone is united, the mountains... can be shaken!"

The military music was loud amidst the thundering cannons in the rear. When Chen Mu heard the roar, he turned back from the chaos army formation. The gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated on several mountainsides. At the foot of the mountain, there were generals with helmets and armour, who immediately swung their knives. Countless Ming troops lined up Invading the enemy's formation with a long formation, invincible.

Reinforcements have arrived!

　good morning friends!I recommend it, hahaha!
