Zhang Zhidong listened to the sound and looked up, only to see the army on the opposite side parting and a man walking out. He was dressed in velvet and came to the front of the formation under the protection of many soldiers.
At this time, Zhao Fengchang, who was beside Zhang Zhidong, was stunned when he saw this man coming out.
When Liang Dingfen saw this situation, she still didn't understand that she had fallen into the trick of Liu Hai and others. It was actually Liu Hai who used a substitute.
Zhang Zhidong was also very cunning. When he saw this situation, he raised his hand and was ready to shoot Liu Hai.
Zhang Zhidong's purpose was to kill Liu Hai with one shot now and save the situation.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhidong just raised his hand and the bodyguard and servant who had been following him for many years suddenly kicked him to the ground with a side kick.
After Zhang Zhidong was knocked down, he was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the young man. He saw that the young man stepped forward and put a dagger on Zhang Zhidong's neck.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhidong still didn't understand that he already had manpower arranged by Liu Hai, so he could only lie there and smile bitterly.
It turns out that I thought I was smart, but actually everything was under Liu Hai's control.
Liu Hai, who was standing in the distance, nodded with satisfaction when he saw Zhang Zhidong and Beiqin, then waved his hand, and countless soldiers immediately swarmed up and tied up all these people.
Liu Hai saw that all these people had been helped and searched, and there was no danger, so he led his guards to Zhang Zhidong.
"Sir, we heroes cherish each other, but this is the first time we meet. Are you so anxious to kill your nephew?"
Zhang Zhidong was already tied up by Wuhuada, but he still maintained his reserve.
I saw Zhang Zhidong raised his head and glanced at Liu Hai, then smiled and said: "My nephew is indeed a hero of the world. It seems that my little tricks are all in my nephew's eyes."
Liu Hai listened to Zhang Zhidong's half-praising and half-sarcastic words, but there was no look of displeasure on his face. Instead, he said with a smile on his face, "Since ancient times, the winner has been the king and the loser. Now that the matter has come to this, the boss can say nothing."
It’s no use anymore.”
After Liu Hai finished speaking, he said to Liu Zhi beside him: "Send troops into the city immediately to clear out the remnants of the Self-Strengthening Army. I want to rest at the governor's Yamen tonight."
After hearing Liu Hai's words, Liu Zhi hurriedly saluted him and then hurried away.
After a while, countless troops came from behind and headed straight for the city gate.
At this time, the city was already in a state of chaos.
Defending the city was Zhang Zhidong's confidant Zhang Biao. This man was originally a subordinate of Wu Dianying, the leader of the Self-Qiang Army. Although he was defeated by Liu Hai's air force last time and lost more than half of his tens of thousands of troops, he was still reused by Zhang Zhidong.
This time, Zhang Zhidong was granted the right to command the army.
This morning Zhang Zhidong left the city to accept the surrender, but Zhang Biao organized heavy troops in the city just in case.
Everything was going well at first, but something unexpected happened suddenly, and countless steel monsters roared and rushed through the city gate.
Zhang Biao was in the city and immediately knew that things had changed, so he immediately led more than 3,000 elite troops to launch a counterattack towards the city gate, hoping that the enemy would be able to recapture the city gate before their foothold was stable.
But when Zhang Biao arrived at the city gate, he found that things were worse than he imagined.
I saw that those guarding the city gate were not soldiers of the Hunan Army, but those steel monsters.
These steel monsters were equipped with new machine guns and kept firing into the city gates. Although the soldiers of the Self-Strengthening Army obeyed orders with strict training, they began to hesitate under such heavy casualties.
When Zhang Biao saw this situation behind the formation, he knew that the rifle in his hand could not do anything to these monsters, so he said to the staff beside him: "Bring up our artillery, I still don't believe it.
The steel monster can really block cannonballs."
Zhang Biao gave the order, and the people below immediately went to prepare. Within ten minutes, two 75 mm caliber howitzers were pushed in from behind.
Then the two cannons in the distance lowered their muzzles and pointed them at the tanks at the city gate.
Following an order, there were two loud noises, and two shells quickly came out of the barrel, then flew towards the tank in the distance.
And because the distance was very close, and the 75mm howitzer placed the muzzle very low, the two shells accurately hit the tank in front.
In an instant, the tank was completely enveloped in thick smoke.
When Zhang Biao, who was behind the formation, saw this situation, he finally had a smile on his face. In his impression, this steel monster must have been destroyed by the cannon.
But before he could be happy for a few minutes, as the smoke dissipated, the steel monster appeared in people's eyes again, but it was not blown into a pile of scrap metal as they imagined, but just in front of the steel monster.
, two faint traces appeared.
Zhang Biao and the others were stunned at this. They did not expect that the armor of this steel monster could withstand the attack of the cannon.
At this time, the tank seemed to be a monster awakening from a deep sleep. It suddenly turned its gun head, and then a 100 mm caliber rifled gun was fired.
The shell accurately hit two 75mm howitzers several hundred meters away. With a loud noise, the two cannons were blown apart.
Fortunately, Zhang Biao was careful and did not get very close to the cannon. Otherwise, the aftermath would have affected him and he would have gone to the west.
Zhang Biao was extremely helpless when he saw the cannon destroyed. The most powerful weapon in his hand now is the 75mm howitzer.
Now even this weapon has no way to deal with the steel monster on the opposite side, which makes him a little at a loss.
When Zhang Biao was helpless, a small staff officer next to him said, "General, since the cannon doesn't work, we might as well send death squads up to use cluster grenades to see if we can destroy it."
Zhang Biao thought for a while, and now he can only do this, "Okay, let's give it a try. You can make arrangements now. Tell the soldiers, but each person who participates in the death squad will be rewarded with 100 yuan, and their family members will be rewarded with 100 yuan."
I will definitely take good care of you."
The young staff officer nodded after hearing this, and then left in a hurry. After a cup of tea, when he came back, there were already more than 20 burly men with him.
These men did not hold rifles in their hands, but had grenades wrapped around their bodies.
The young staff officer came to Zhang Biao's side again and said: "General, you are ready."
Zhang Biao nodded, then looked towards the city gate again, "You can't attack from the front in a swarm, you have to keep approaching from all directions."
Then he thought again, "I saw that these steel monsters were facing the enemy from the front. I thought that their backs were weak points, so it was best to attack from the back."
After hearing this, the young staff officer nodded repeatedly, and then went to make arrangements.
Then, these dozens of death squads quickly disappeared from the front, and then approached the city gate in a roundabout way from various streets.
The dozens of tanks at the city gate are now formed in a semicircle, with their muzzles pointed outside, preparing to defend until the large force enters the city.
Suddenly one of the tanks spotted a man dressed in ordinary clothes and quickly approached the tank.
The commander in the tank immediately warned the commander of the situation.
"Report to the battalion commander that we found a civilian coming this way. Do you want to open fire?"
"Give him a warning first. If he continues to approach the tank, you are authorized to fire freely."
After listening to the order, the commander immediately opened the top cover of the tank and stuck his head out.
"Common fellows across the way, this is a war zone, please leave immediately."
The captain shouted several times in succession, but the man not only did not stop, but came quickly towards this side.
By this time, even a fool knew that something was wrong, so the commander immediately retracted his grandson into the tank, and then ordered the coaxial machine gun on the Type 59 tank to start firing.
However, the person on the opposite side also quickly approached the tank more than 20 meters away. I saw this person suddenly speeding up and approaching the tank in a zigzag manner.
At this moment, the tank also started to fire, and a row of machine gun bullets hit the man's side.
I don’t know how Zhang Biao found this man. He is really very skilled in martial arts.
He stretched out and rolled on the ground to avoid the row of fire, and then he got down on all fours like a cat and quickly approached the tank.
The tank's coaxial machine gun will be very lethal to enemy infantry at long distances, but due to the limitation of the rotation speed of the tank turret, it will be clumsy to kill the enemy at close range.
Therefore, the next few shots missed this man.
He actually allowed this unarmed man to approach the flank of the tank.
Then there was a loud noise, and it turned out that this person was a suicide attacker.
The tank trembled on the spot a few times during the violent explosion. As the smoke dissipated, except for the damage to the tank's tracks, the rest of the tank was unharmed.
By this time, the entire tank unit was aware of the enemy's suicide attack.
This suicide attacker was just the beginning, and then dozens of people came from all directions and quickly approached this side.
However, after learning from the previous lesson, the people behind were naturally not so polite. As soon as they saw someone approaching, they would swipe past them with a row of bullets from a distance.
Next, almost none of these death squads could get close to the tank's defense line.
Zhang Biao, who was behind the formation, was so angry when he saw this situation that he slapped his thigh with his hand.
And just when the gate of the city was anxious, there was a cry of killing from outside, and then countless soldiers poured in from the gate.
As soon as Zhang Biao saw this situation, he knew that the general was entering the city, so he quickly ordered his thousands of men to set up obstacles at various intersections and prepare behind them to meet the enemy.
After doing all this, Zhang Biao quickly ordered the small staff beside him to send orders to other units of the Self-Strengthening Army, asking them to immediately send reinforcements to the east city gate.
