Li Yingyuan's body was brought back, and Li Jiucheng went crazy.
He killed several of Li Yingyuan's soldiers one after another, but still could not eliminate his anger.
Although as a veteran on the battlefield, Li Jiucheng knew very well that people would die in war.
I just didn't expect that it would be my son who died.
Since defeating Guan Ning's army, Li Jiucheng's ambitions have rapidly expanded.
He felt that there was no way he could break the earth and become a king.
Once this step is reached, Li Yingyuan will be his heir.
Although he suffered successive defeats at the hands of the new army, Li Jiucheng was still very optimistic.
After all, the army is at hand, all we have to do is avoid the new army.
As a result, now that his son is dead and his hope is gone, Li Jiucheng turned into an angry lion on the spot.
"Order the entire army to attack, I will make these beasts pay for my son's life!"
Kong Youde frowned on the side.
But looking at the furious Li Jiucheng, he endured it for a while.
Under Li Jiucheng's strict order, the rebels' attack became even more frenzied.
On the frontal battlefield, the rebel forces further increased their strength and finally advanced to the barbed wire fence.
Shen Xun has been paying attention to the battlefield situation.
"The Dongjiang Army has made great progress."
His judgment is not nonsense, it is the truth.
In this attack, the rebels actually used a skirmish line.
No longer like the past, rows and teams of people swarmed together, and then were wiped out in pieces by the New Army's guns and artillery.
At this time, the rebels were scattered and moving slowly. They also used the terrain to jump and sometimes crawl.
This is obviously the result of hard-earned experience gained after fighting three battles with the New Army.
In response, Shen Xun also quickly made adjustments.
"Command all ministries to fire freely."
If you play skirmish line, then I will play free fire.
After receiving the order, the New Army soldiers no longer waited for the order of the captain or platoon leader to fire a salvo. Instead, after loading the ammunition, they found the target and fired on their own.
For a time, the battlefield no longer had the shocking feeling of the previous volleys of gunfire and the mountains were shaking. Instead, there was the chaotic sound of gunfire like New Year's firecrackers.
The flash cap gun has a long range and high accuracy. The effect of free shooting is actually no better than that of a volley gun.
Moreover, under the free fire command, soldiers do not need to worry about the distance and can shoot whenever they feel there is no problem.
This makes the rebels unsafe even if they are four or five hundred meters away.
Who knows if the sharpshooters of the new army will target them?
Ren Dong is on the front line of the battle.
Today, he is no longer a promotion officer in Laizhou Prefecture, but an ordinary soldier in the 13th Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the 3rd Division of the New Army.
Lying in the ditch, Ren Dong's blood boiled.
Any opportunity to eliminate the Dongjiang rebels excited him.
The flash cap gun in his hand was so useful that he was very sorry. Why didn't Laizhou have such a sharp weapon when defending the city?
Open the ammunition box, take out a bullet, pull out the warhead, pour the fixed charge in the paper tube at the back into the barrel, then insert the warhead, and push it to the bottom with a purge bar.
After removing the flat-end musket, break off a flash cap from the side of the ammunition box and install it on the detonator hole.
A rebel appeared in his field of vision.
This guy was very cunning. He didn't know how he got through the hail of bullets and actually touched the edge of the barbed wire.
Moreover, this man actually held a large iron pliers in his hand and was cutting towards the barbed wire fence.
Ren Dong had quick eyes and quick hands, and shot him. The man didn't even grunt and threw himself to the ground.
Just when he was rejoicing, a whistling sound broke through the air suddenly, a burst of dust flew not far away, and the whole earth shook a few times.
Gu Chu
When Ren Dong pushed aside the smoke and could see clearly, he discovered that two soldiers from the seventh team had fallen to the ground, their blood staining the soil red.
He knew both of these soldiers because he was also a member of Team 7.
"Hygienist? Where is the hygienist?"
Ren Dong yelled and rushed over. Based on the knowledge he learned, he took out a clean bandage and began to bandage the injured soldier.
As for the other one, the man had been blown into two pieces and it was obvious that he could not be saved.
Even with this, my left calf was blown away to nowhere, and I probably won’t be able to stand up for the rest of my life.
The health team came very quickly and rushed over at great risk. They didn't even have time to express their gratitude to him. They lifted the wounded man and put him on a stretcher before retreating.
Ren Dong returned to his seat and saw Wang Xiaoshuan next to him with his eyes straightened and his whole body trembling.
He just slapped Wang Xiaoshuan in the face, almost knocking Wang Xiaoshuan's soul out of his body.
"You are so afraid that if you die, you will die and you will die for tens of millions of years."
Wang Xiaoshuan is a new soldier, and this is his first time on the battlefield.
"Brother Ren, aren't you... not afraid of death?"
Ren Dong loaded the bomb again and fired, but this time he missed the target.
"I've already died once."
He stopped and said to Wang Xiaoshuan: "You can't be afraid on the battlefield. The more afraid you are, the faster you will die. This place is about bullying the weak and fearing the strong. The more fierce you are, the faster you will survive."
Wang Xiaoshuan couldn't understand, but under extreme fear, he felt that he must be right to listen to the veteran.
He loaded the bullet tremblingly, raised his hand and fired.
"Come on, come on, grandpa is not afraid of you."
Under the sound of gunfire, a rebel who had just crossed the barbed wire fell down.
Wang Xiaoshuan couldn't help but feel great joy.
"Hehe, hehehe, I am indeed not dead."
Ren Dong smiled, but then his face turned gloomy.
The rebels broke through the barbed wire fence.
Despite the heavy cost, barbed wire began to lose its defensive role.
Or it was because the number of new troops was too small.
No matter how sophisticated the flash cap gun is, insufficient firepower is always a problem.
The crazy rebels were so numerous that they could not stop the new army even if the barrels of their guns were turned red.
As more and more rebels crossed the barbed wire fence, sharp whistles sounded suddenly.
Ren Dong suddenly came to his senses and quickly pushed Wang Xiaoshuan and shouted at the same time.
"Retreat, retreat quickly, retreat to the second trench!"
The soldiers nearby picked up their ammunition and ran along the traffic trench to the second trench twenty meters behind.
Ren Dong stayed at the end and pulled up the string on one side of the wall. There was a small hook at the top of the string. When he pulled it to the other side of the trench, there was a round flat box embedded in the wall with a round circle on it.
ring.
Ren Dong carefully hung the hook on the ring.
This thing is a new weapon sent from the arsenal, called a thunder.
When the trenches cannot be defended and need to be retreated, this device can cause great damage to the chasing enemies and can also delay the enemy's pursuit.
Ren Dong hung four mines in a row, and the last one ran into the traffic ditch.
Just as he turned around, a roar suddenly came from behind him.
When he looked back, he saw a rebel leaping high and a sharp sword heading straight for his head.
He was a little confused and didn't know how to block it.
Bang……
At the other end of the traffic trench, smoke filled the air, and Wang Xiaoshuan's shouts could be heard.
"Brother Ren, come here quickly."
That rebel...
It had long been like a kite with its string broken, and it had fallen far away.
