318 People are like weeds

In an era when the law and discipline were broken, human life was as cheap as grass, and the most valuable thing was human life. Although the rebel army was composed of poor people, they did not treat the people well. On the contrary, if they picked up persimmons, they harmed the most, and plundered the people and took over the people was their usual way of winning. As for the trick of letting the people act as cannon fodder, they have been very skillful.

From a timid blacksmith son to a decisive soldier who dares to attack, a small move proves that Sun Xiong has grown up in battle, not only becoming brave, but also becoming responsible. Lu Haoshan saw this in his eyes and was happy in his heart.

In fact, if Sun Xiong asks for instructions, Lu Haoshan will also issue an order to attack. The result of a moment of hesitation on the battlefield may be that he will never be restored.

It is too true that a good person is not open to the government, and a kind person is not in charge of the army. This is right. As a general, he is not only not merciful to his enemies, but sometimes he is not merciful to his own people. Lu Haoshan is not afraid that someone will use this to criticize him. The court has already opened one eye and closed the other eye. It is not surprising that he is used to it.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the bandits are eliminated as soon as possible and the Ming Dynasty is protected, it is a little too much. Chongzhen and the court also opened their eyes and closed them. For example, during this bandit suppression, many generals plundered their troops and made great fortunes, but in the end they were all left alone.

Lu Haoshan looked below. The battle was still stalemate. A group of people in front fell down under the attack of their subordinates, but soon another group of people were 1, ww¢, crying at the position where Sun Xiong was. The bandits didn't care about the lives of these people. In their eyes, these people were just a tool, a tool that could help him achieve his goals. It was really cruel. With the first experience, Sun Xiong no longer had any burden. Anyway, he had no turning back. Under his order, the group of people quickly fell into a pool of blood.

Those thieves who are fearless and fearless cannot rush forward, and these people are really cannon fodder.

The second group of people fell down. In a blink of an eye, another group of people were beaten by bandits and ready to attack the positions of the government troops. Lu Haoshan's mood suddenly sank, and Zhao Gongchang, on the side, suddenly said in surprise: "Sir, look, Huang Hu, I didn't expect him to come too."

Parents gave their children only one name, but they could have many nicknames. For example, Zhang Xianzhong, the officers and soldiers called him Huang Hu privately. It is said that this nickname was raised by him when he was an officer and soldier. This was based on his appearance, because his face was yellow and long, and this special face saved his life. It is said that Zhang Xianzhong had read books when he was young. After becoming an adult, he joined the army and served as a constable in Yan'an Prefecture. He was dismissed from his post because of his crime. He later broke the law and was killed. The chief general Chen Hongfan saw that he looked strange. He pleaded with the general Wang Wei and beat a hundred military sticks to remove him. He was spared because of his ugly appearance and weird appearance. It was extremely rare in history. In addition to Huang Hu, Zhang Xianzhong also had a nickname called "The Eight Kings of Xiying". This was a very majestic nickname he gave to himself by rebellion.

Zhang Xianzhong?

Lu Haoshan was shocked and quickly used Qianliyan's eyes to look for it with Zhao Gongchang's guidance. Sure enough, his face was too special and he found him in the crowd without much effort. He was ordering his subordinates to drive the people forward and open the way, as if he was conscious. When Lu Haoshan stared at him with Qianliyan's eyes, Zhang Xianzhong suddenly looked up at the location where Lu Haoshan was. He looked at him with four eyes. Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were filled with a sensational chill. His small eyes could not hide the monstrous murderous intent that could be felt even by Lu Haoshan.

It was a gaze that ignored the creatures. Although Lu Haoshan could see Zhang Xianzhong from such a distance, but the eight kings of Xiying, who had a huge murderous intention, could not see Lu Haoshan, but they still felt a little palpitation in their hearts.

No wonder he pushed the people up and died without any slander. When he encountered this number "Killing God", there was nothing he could do.

"Let your brothers save ammunition and arrows." Lu Haoshan said lightly: "By the way, let Dingguo go to help Sun Xiong, Sun Xiong is too young."

Knowing that those people had no combat power, Zhang Xianzhong still drove away the people one by one. It was obvious that he planned to use his lives to consume ammunition, arrows and spirit of the officers and soldiers, so that their confidants would suffer much less casualties when they charged.

"Yes, sir." Zhao Gongchang also tasted the taste at this time and hurriedly went to convey the order.

Looking at Zhao Gongchang's figure leaving, Lu Haoshan, who had been very confident just now, felt a little uneasy in his heart: The person who came is not kind.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang"

"Swoosh"

"Ah, spare your life"

"I don't want to die, help me."

"Rare for me, whoever takes a step back will kill you."

The battle continued. Zhang Xianzhong was very patient and divided the thousands of people who were brought along the way into seven teams, each with about one hundred people, allowing them to rush in the front and use their flesh and blood to block the iron balls and arrows of the officers and soldiers. Lu Haoshan really guessed that he did not expect these people to disrupt or disperse the positions of the officers and soldiers, but could effectively consume the officers' gunpowder and arrows.

The number of officers and soldiers on Feilai Peak was limited, and the strategic materials they carried were also limited. They could not be replenished on the mountain, so they were used a little less. Zhang Xianzhong understood this truth. When he heard that Lao Huihui had failed to attack, he immediately sent his men to rob the people and wrapped thousands of people to help the battle.

One batch, two batch, and three batches followed by screams. In less than an hour, thousands of people had fallen into pools of blood. They were either shot to death by arrows or were shot in muskets, and fell on the charge road in a row. The scene was filled with a strong smell of blood that could not be dissipated.

"Chief, all the stormtroopers have been used up, please give me instructions." When the last group of people fell, a small leader reported to Zhang Xianzhong.

All dead so soon?

Zhang Xianzhong felt a little regretful. Although the firepower of the officers and soldiers was much weaker than at the beginning, it was still sharp. It would be even better if he found more cannon fodder. It would be much fun to grind until the officers and soldiers had no ammunition or bows and arrows. After thinking about it, Zhang Xianzhong did not hesitate much and waved his hand: "If you die, then go to the first team. Remember, let the brothers hide it tightly."

Just when the people were consuming the arrows and ammunition of the official army, the bandits below were not idle. Under Zhang Xianzhong's command, everyone started to use defensive shields. Some people pulled down the wooden boards of the carriage, some went to cut down small trees and tied them into rows, and some people filled the wheels with bags filled with soil to make a movable shield. After the people who acted as cannon fodder died, Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand and a new round of attack could begin again.

"Kill me!" Zhang Xianzhong shouted loudly: "Who is the first to rush into the official army's position and reward 500 taels of silver."

"Kill"

"Crush and kill all these dogs, officers and soldiers."

"Avenge your dead brother."

These desperate people hid behind shields and obstacles, swung their swords and slowly launched a new round of offensive towards the positions of the government troops.

"Smacking"

"Bang, bang bang bang"

The arrow was nailed on the wooden shield, and the iron balls shot from the bird gun were deeply embedded in the wooden shield. Due to their limited power, neither the sharp arrow nor the iron balls could penetrate the wooden shield or the bandits hiding behind the cart. Even the bandits were getting closer and closer. Sun Xiong had the courage to attack the people who tried to attack the positions, but in the face of this situation, he suddenly seemed at a loss. He pulled the three-stone strong bow like a full moon, and then loosened it after aiming. With a "bang", the arrow was nailed tightly to the shield walking in front.

Shoot, but can't shoot through.

With a "sourcing" sound, Chen Feng, who was beside him, shot a bag containing soil, silently. The car continued to move forward, and it was obviously useless.

"Captain. What should I do if I can't wear that layer of turtle shell?" Chen Feng said in a panic look.

The team members turned their attention to Sun Xiong. Although the bandits were slow to act, they were only more than ten feet away from the position. The situation was very dangerous.

"There are people and the position is there," Sun Xiong gritted his teeth and said, "After a while, brothers and brothers will rush with me, and the lord will be watching from above. We can't bears anymore."

Just as everyone was trying to jump out of the position and fight desperately, a voice rang out in time: "Stop, what are you going to rush, hit them on the feet, hide behind the cart, use stones."

It was Li Dingguo. He appeared in time and knew his subordinates well. Lu Haoshan was very good at talking about his subordinates. Sun Xiong was brave but lacked in adaptability. Although he had made progress, he had not yet grown up to be comparable to Zhang Xianzhong, Lao Huihui and others who had been through the battlefield for a long time. So he ordered Li Dingguo to cooperate at the first level. Unexpectedly, it was the right time.

In close combat, Lao Huihui and Zhang Xianzhong and the others were eager to do so.

The words woke up the dreamer. Although the bandits had made wooden shields and carts, many places were still exposed. They were condescending and smashing them with stones was the most appropriate. So they all looked at the hands and feet and shot them. Those who were hiding behind the carts could not see people, so they looked for stones nearby. Unexpectedly, the method was quite effective:

"Ah, my feet."

"I'm in my hand."

"Wow, no, Lao Ding and Lao San were hit by a stone"

If it were other troops, it would probably be very effective, because this method requires high firing skills and guns, so the "target" is still moving, but for Wen Chong Qianhus, these are not difficult to do. Archery and fire guns are all basic skills, and Lu Haoshan is willing to let them go and practice. After hitting the person, as long as the gap is exposed, the others will immediately make up for it. The chariots were smashed one by one by one by one. Without the protection of the car, the people hiding behind were lambs waiting to be slaughtered. In less than two quarters of an hour, the group of people who came to attack suffered heavy casualties. Finally, they screamed and retreated, giving their backs to the official army, Li Dingguo, Sun Xiong and others were not polite to knock down more than ten corpses.

Nearly a hundred people attacked this time, but in the end they were able to escape, only more than ten people, and several of them were injured.

"Don't obey the orders, escape privately, kill!"

A loud shout, and a scream sounded. Li Dingguo and Sun Xiong, who were guarding the first level, were surprised to see that the more than ten bandits who had finally escaped were suddenly slashed and killed by a team of people wearing red cloaks. In just a blink of an eye, the more than ten people who escaped were all corrected without exception.

The orderer was Zhang Xianzhong, and he didn't even look at his own people who fell to the ground. He didn't care how many of the people who were killed were his own people or who were other brothers. He said expressionlessly: "The second team is on."

There were only a few hundred officers and soldiers on the mountain, so they had to be taken down as soon as possible. These subordinates retreated and fled when the situation was wrong. How could they fight like this? Zhang Xianzhong did not hesitate to order all those who were shrinking in the battle to correct the Dharma, so as to respectfully follow You.

Sure enough, when the second team held a simple wooden shield and pushed the cart to charge, the determination was much greater.

Li Dingguo saw the scene clearly and his heart suddenly became heavy. Li Dingguo was very clear about Zhang Xianzhong's ability and ability. As soon as an expert took action, he knew whether he had any skills. As soon as Zhang Xianzhong took action, he would leave no room for him.

The real test is here.

"Brothers, let them try the power of our Wen Chong Qianhu Institute and beat him hard." Sun Xiong shouted loudly. After saying that, he raised a big stone and threw it hard. With a "bang", he smashed the three bandits behind the wooden shield to the ground. The one who was hit by the stone vomited blood. Before they could react, several sharp arrows broke through the air and nailed them to the ground.

"good!"

"The captain is mighty."

The subordinates were impressed by Sun Xiong's heroic spirit and cheered loudly. Just now, the morale suddenly rose again after a little low.

Li Dingguo said in a deep voice: "Put the person closer and aim for me."

"Yes, Captain Li." The soldiers whispered.

This time it took half an hour to repel the attack. No, it was completely wiped out. Under the surveillance of the red-clothed law enforcement team behind, no one dared to escape. They fought to the death and died until they all died. This time, they were more determined than the last time, and the person who rushed to the nearest was less than five feet away from Sun Xiong's position.

The attack of the bandits was once again crushed, but Sun Xiong and Li Dingguo did not express much excitement. It was obvious that the two times just now were temptations, but they just temptations. They rushed less than five feet away from the position just now. These bandits were not ordinary people. They shot arrows and guns while getting closer. Although they were not fatal, they also injured five people. Since the beginning of the battle, they have been fighting for more than two hours, and their subordinates have become tired.

The fire gun was better, but the hand was trembling when the bow was pulled and the arrow was pulled. Because a person's strength was limited, the strong bow consumed a lot of energy every time he pulled it. At the beginning, almost everyone had pulled it dozens of times, and his hand was sore. If it were other people, they would probably be so tired that they didn't want to move.

Humans are not machines.

"Captain, I don't have many arrows anymore, only five left."

"Captain, there is only one small bag of gunpowder, is there any gunpowder? I can only hit it twice at most."

"This musket is too hot, so I'm afraid it will explode if it fires."

"Report, there are eight-pole muskets that cannot be fired."

Bad news came one by one, Li Dingguo and Sun Xiong were a little heavy. What new instructions did their own master have? But how many more attacks can they repel the thieves?

Another team was wiped out, but Zhang Xianzhong still looked calm and waved the flag in his hand, saying expressionlessly: "The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth teams are on the way together, the musketeer and the archer are obsessed."

Just when Li Dingguo and Sun Xiong were struggling, they were surprised to see that the bandits at the foot of the mountain were dispatched again. This time, the number of people was larger and larger. In Qianli's eyes, it was clear that many people holding muskets followed behind. It seemed that Zhang Xianzhong was going to play the game seriously.

This Huang Hu who killed thousands of swords really knows how to choose the opportunity.
