Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Sangui was so angry that he almost went crazy. How long has it been since he was playing with something like this? Fortunately, he only killed a few Indian children, so it was not a big deal. Indian children, Wu Sangui watched

They are not much different from kittens and puppies.

But after all, it was bloody, and those who didn't know it thought their men had no food to eat, so they started to eat the children.

"Take it! Take it! It's like a spirit conjurer. If he can make it stop raining, I can make you a god damn immortal." Wu Sangui was furious, pointed at Wu Laoer's head, and kicked him several times.

Wu Laoer's butt.

"You always have to have dreams, what if they come true." Wu Laoer giggled "ha" and "ha".

Wu Sangui lost his temper completely. He was a little discouraged. Because Mao Li Xiao had so many talented people, he only had so many talents left when it was his turn. Everyone was hungry when they saw food and thirsty when they saw drinks. Apart from eating, they only thought about killing people all day long.

.

Back in the military tent, Wu Sangui couldn't sleep either. It had rained for two days, and there were more mosquitoes. Many times the mosquitoes were in groups and could hit people's faces when they walked past.

In the past, you could make a bonfire and light some wormwood for smoke. But now there is water everywhere, and it is difficult to light a fire. The high platform has been piled up, and you have to keep boiling water, so there is nowhere to burn wormwood.

His face was already wet, but after being bitten by mosquitoes, he felt itchy and cold. The feeling was not to mention uncomfortable. Wu Sangui hated his toothache, but there was nothing he could do. At the same time, Wu Sangui was a little worried. He lit a few lights here.

Mosquito coils are like this, what do ordinary soldiers do?

The itching was unbearable, so Wu Sangui tossed the pancake over and over again. He didn't know how long it took before he finally fell asleep.

When he woke up in the morning, his whole hand was swollen, and Wu Sangui even felt some pain in the bones. Grandma's finger was actually bitten four times.

The back of my hand was even more miserable, and I could not bear to walk out of the military tent. It was not yet dawn and the rain did not stop. It was so sparse that I didn’t know when it would continue to rain.

There were few people sleeping in the military camp, and even the Indians with super endurance could not bear such torture. What came into view were pairs of wide-open eyes. There were endless moans in the tent.

Wu Sangui knows a little bit of Indian? I heard a lot of people cursing.

When the Han people in India learned the Indian language, the first thing they learned were curse words. Wu Sangui was not exempt from the vulgarity. He heard the curse words in his ears and couldn't bear to hit people with a whip.

What can't be done? Morale is already so low. If there is another incident of beating and scolding soldiers? Maybe mutiny will occur under high pressure.

An army completely ruled by foreigners? The cohesion is not high to begin with, and now this army is completely controlled by high pressure. If there is a mutiny, then this war will not be fought.

With a gloomy face, Wu Sangui returned to the military tent. After enduring it for a while, he stood at the door again and looked at the white fish belly on the horizon. Will this happen for another day or two? There is no need to fight this battle after the team is separated.

"Bang!" The sound of a gunshot startled Wu Sangui. Without Wu Sangui saying anything, someone had already run out to ask what was going on.

"Major General, if there are deserters, the patrolling guards will shoot them." After a while, someone ran back to report.

The most worrying thing has happened, there are deserters. There are two deserters. No matter what method you use, it is difficult to contain them. Originally, these soldiers were forcibly recruited, and some were even directly recruited.

Is it okay to eat and drink those who were kidnapped? It’s not surprising that deserters would appear in this situation.

When he was worried? Suddenly, there was intensive gunfire from the direction behind him. Wu Sangui's heart sank suddenly!

"Major General, a dozen Indians escaped and were discovered. When I ordered them to come back, they actually fired back. Captain Boscher ordered to fire, and they all were killed."

"How are the casualties?" Wu Sangui's voice was very low.

"More than a dozen people were killed, and there are still several fugitives who are being pursued. Captain Boscher was injured, and the medical officer is treating him. The injury is a bit serious. The medical officer said he may not live long."

"Got it! Order the medical officers to do their best to treat you." Wu Sangui closed his eyes helplessly. The thing he was most worried about finally happened. If one or two people escaping could not shake the morale of the army, but now a group of more than ten or twenty people have appeared.

escape.

If there really is a mass exodus of more than a hundred people, collapse is imminent.

If the rain does not stop, this situation is likely to occur. Most of these Indians who were forcibly recruited are fellow villagers or even brothers.

There is nothing that can be done about this. Indians like to live in groups. They often live together in groups with clans as ties, and even conscription cannot separate them. This is because almost all people living in a place are one and the same family.

"Damn rain, stop it now." Wu Sangui walked out and raised his head, a few raindrops fell on his face mercilessly.

The white fish belly on the horizon slowly lit up, and Wu Sangui's ears were filled with the sound of raindrops dripping on the tent.

Wu Sangui sat helplessly in the tent, waiting for the collapse to come. The entire army that had been put together with so much effort would probably fall apart in half a day at most.

Having been in the army all his life, Wu Sangui knows what it looks like when an army collapses. It is really like an avalanche. At first it was just a little collapse, but in the end it was a landslide and a tsunami, and no one could stop it. At this moment, Wu Sangui

, I sincerely pray to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, as long as the rain stops quickly, I can do whatever I want.

Maybe God heard Wu Sangui's prayer, or maybe the wizard was really wise. When the fish belly became extremely white, the sun came out.

No matter what time it is, the sunlight pierces the darkness and gives people a warm feeling. This is especially true at this time!

The moment he saw the sun, Wu Sangui actually shed tears.

There were cheers and even gunshots in the military camp. Although they were still soaked in water, everyone was still very happy when the sun came out.

The happiness spread throughout the military camp in an instant, and those who were thinking of escaping slowly dispersed. To escape would be to risk beheading, but no one would take this road unless they couldn't bear it.

There were very bloody corpses hanging from the trees on the roadside. They were captured deserters, and occasionally someone would pull them out. Regardless of whether they were dead or not, crows had already flown to them and started to eat their flesh.

When the weather cleared up, Wu Sangui decided to leave here quickly. The baggage could be left behind, and the entire army would only need to carry three days' worth of dry food and ammunition. If we delay in this muddy water for a few more days, the team will collapse.

Queen Zhang Xi didn't know it yet, but Wu Sangui's team was already on the verge of collapse.

Killing Wu Laohei would mean that he and Wu Sangui would completely fall out and there would be no room for maneuver. These days, Li Xiao sent many Japanese veterans to help train the Zhangxi people.

Zhang Xi originally had an army, but the weapons were poor and crude. In order to prevent the granary Zhang Xi from rebelling, Wu Sangui did not equip them with guns at all. As a result, Queen Zhang Xi's palace guards were all sword-wielding samurai without any modern firearms.

.

Li Xiao's assistance was actually a bit perfunctory. Most of the rifles he provided were revolvers that had been eliminated for a long time, even in the Ming Dynasty's garrison.

There are even hundreds of flintlock rifles. The trainer told the Zhangxi people that they need to find some people with good eyesight to use this kind of firearm. Because although this kind of firearm is inconvenient and has a slow rate of fire, it can shoot very far. On the battlefield

, can snipe local generals from a distance.

If these Japanese people dared to talk nonsense like this in the Liao army, they would probably be beaten to death before night. But not in Zhangxi. Few people in Zhangxi have experienced modern war.

Most of the time Zhang Xi's army played a role in transporting grain, fodder and baggage during the war. Everything on the battlefield was unfamiliar to them, including the generals trusted by Queen Zhang Xi, who had never experienced real war.

Great war.

Wu Sangui's army came over like black clouds. Queen Zhang Xi looked at her men and she had never felt so heroic. Now she has 28,000 people equipped with muskets and five high-tech products.

Maxim heavy machine gun.

Although Queen Zhang Xi did not understand military matters, she was still deeply impressed by the rate of fire of the Maxim heavy machine gun. This kind of gun could actually fire continuously and eventually shoot down a large tree that could be hugged by one person. This was unimaginable before!

With such powerful weapons, we should be able to fight against Wu Sangui's army. The Ming Army's envoy said that reinforcements from the Ming Army would arrive in seven days at most.

Twenty-eight thousand people, all armed with muskets, would not be able to withstand it for even seven days.

"Tell your men that after entering Zhangxi City, you can let them plunder for three days. You will not seal the sword for three days!" Wu Sangui looked at the black city wall fiercely. It is said that this kind of city wall is made of volcanic rocks and is so strong that even explosives can't be used.

There is no way around this city wall.

Wu Sangui didn't believe that these city walls could withstand his offensive.

With all the baggage behind, Wu Sangui had no choice but to start attacking the outer positions of Zhangxicheng with only light weapons.

The Indian soldiers held their rifles and walked forward cautiously. They had no choice but to move. The dark muzzles of the supervising team's guns were pointed at their backs. As long as anyone dared to run back, the bullet would definitely be fired before he ran back.

wear his body.

There were several corpses behind him, all of them were people who ran back out of fear and were shot dead.

The sound of "bang" and "bang" mortars began to appear behind him. These were veterans who had followed Wu Sangui for many years. Mortars were nothing new. The mortars of these veterans were extremely accurate. They exploded straight to the west.

Debris from the fortifications built with bricks and stones were flying everywhere!

Occasionally, you can still see people being blown up. They spread their teeth and claws in the sky and fall to the ground silently.

The people in Zhangxi were stunned by the mortars. They didn't know what to do. Most of them had never seen a mortar in their life experience, let alone how to avoid it.

Many people threw away their guns and ran back out of fear. However, as soon as these people left the trench, they were blown down by mortars falling from the sky. There were so many shrapnel in these people's bodies that they became bloody men in an instant.

After a while, there were many broken corpses lying on the position. No one dared to run outside the trenches anymore. Although the trenches were dangerous inside, they were much stronger than outside.

"Beep! Beep!" Just as Zhang Xi's soldiers were huddled in the trench, bursts of rapid whistles sounded. This was an order to attack!

As the order to attack was issued, sporadic gunshots immediately rang out from the Zhangxi people's position. The Japanese instructors ran in the trenches. They picked up everyone who was trembling and crying on the ground and pointed their guns at them.

Shooting is actually a kind of inertia. Once they discovered that it was difficult to be hit in the trenches, the Zhangxi people became bolder. They lay down in the trenches and began to shoot at the charging Indians.

The sound of gunfire soon became intensive.

Almost at the same time, many of the charging Indians also fell. After all, the opponents were holding muskets, not toys for display.

Bullets continued to interact in the air, and soldiers from both sides continued to fall in a pool of blood. Although the Zhangxi people were not well trained, they had the convenience of fortified trenches. These people lay on the edge of the trenches and kept shooting outwards. As long as

After firing ten rounds of bullets, you will feel more and more relaxed.

Although there were trenches and fortifications to protect them, some people were still killed by mortar shells that kept falling from the sky. There were also unlucky ones who were shot in the head by the Indians who were shooting at them!

In order to seize the foreign positions in Zhangxicheng as soon as possible and give his soldiers a sufficient and dry place to station, Wu Sangui was ready to go all out and sent a battalion to forcibly assault the enemy positions. Mortars followed the attacking team, firing continuously.

Bomb the opponent's fortifications.

The first wave of attacks did not work, and almost all the Indians died. But the second attack, they rushed directly to the Zhangxi people's position and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Zhangxi people.

Sabres! Daggers! Engineer shovels, rifles, even rocks, anything that could be picked up was picked up.

In less than two hours, the Zhangxi people in the forward position suffered almost all casualties. Of the 2,000-strong team, less than 800 people can now stand.

Just as a battalion of Indians were charging forward with shouts of "Aw" and "Aw", suddenly the sound of "dah da da...!" rang out from the Zhangxi people's position. What was waiting for the Indians was like raindrops.
