"Let our skirmishers attack them. Read М" said a Franco general.

There are also a small number of riflemen in their army.

After receiving his order, three hundred soldiers immediately separated from the team, faced each other, and dispersed.

However, they were not able to shoot immediately. Instead, they kept moving forward and stopped at a distance of 200 meters from the Yanzhou skirmishers.

Then, they took out the round lead bullets and put a small hammer through the purge bar, and laboriously smashed the lead bullets into the rifled gun.

Due to the obstruction of the rifling, loading of rifled guns is very laborious, and the manufacturing cost of rifled guns is high.

This has resulted in the current Western-Turkish army not being equipped with rifled guns on a large scale, but only deploying a small number of rifled gun squads to be responsible for pre-war harassment.

Therefore, General Franji was even more surprised when he saw that Yanzhou soldiers were also adopting such tactics.

"Bang, bang, bang..." While the Franco soldiers were reloading, sporadic gunshots continued to sound on the battlefield.

Unlike the Franco soldiers who have difficulty loading, Yanzhou's conical bullets are very easy to load.

The time it takes for the French soldiers to shoot once is enough for the royal soldiers to shoot two or three times.

After three or four rounds of shooting, the remaining Franco soldiers suddenly realized that there were not many of their companions left.

Basically fell in a pool of blood.

At this time, the opponent's skirmishers bypassed the advancing formation and approached the artillery.

Amidst the gunfire, artillerymen fell from time to time.

This situation made the French generals' backs wet with cold sweat, and they realized that they had made a stupid mistake.

This Yanzhou army is not as weak as they imagined.

"We must retreat!" General Franji secretly thought.

But it was too late, the distance between the two teams was shortened to 200 meters.

At this moment, he found that the Yanzhou soldiers on the opposite side stopped and raised their muskets at them.

Then he saw a burst of fire and the sound of gunfire.

The advancing Franji soldiers screamed, and 30% of the Franji soldiers in the first row fell to the ground immediately.

Out of habit, the second row of French soldiers immediately filled in and rebuilt the complete first row.

But another round of gunfire rang out, and another third of the soldiers fell to the ground.

Then came the third round of shooting.

At the same time, the artillery on both sides roared at the same time.

But the sound of artillery on their side was sparse, obviously affected by the skirmishers from the other side.

A Fran machine gun shell fell into the array of Yanzhou soldiers, and suddenly a group of Yanzhou soldiers fell down.

Before he could be proud, he saw a dozen black afterimages falling into the advancing Fran army.

The black cannonballs plowed a bloody path, and the flesh and blood of the French soldiers on the bloody path were scattered everywhere, and their stumps fell to the ground.

More than a dozen artillery shells crisscrossed each other, causing them a lot of casualties.

At this time, he could no longer hold on and no longer paid attention to Steven's orders, shouting to retreat.

The confidence of the French soldiers when they left the city collapsed instantly. The soldiers flocked to the city of Marka like hens circling at night.

At this moment, Steven was completely stunned.

He couldn't believe the scene in front of him, and he couldn't believe that there was an indigenous army in Dongtu that could defeat them.

His face was so gloomy that he could drip water, and he shouted: "Hold the city wall to my death."

When the soldiers who had left the city fled back, he immediately closed the gate of Marka City and ordered the soldiers to aim their artillery at the Yanzhou soldiers. As long as they were within range, he ordered them to bombard them.

The Franco army was defeated in a single confrontation. Pan Chang did not let the soldiers pursue the victory, but dispersed the army into skirmish lines and moved towards the city wall.

In this way, the opponent's artillery will not be able to cause huge casualties to the Marine soldiers.

Once within 350 meters of Marka City, the skirmishers fired freely to suppress the gunners of the opponent's artillery.

There were bursts of gunfire outside the city, and the roar of cannons.

The Franco soldiers who had escaped from the battle were panic-stricken.

In the chaos, several Franco officers looked at each other and quietly led their soldiers away.

Not long after, they appeared at the door of Feiwen's cell.

The Franco soldiers guarding Fei Wen were knocked unconscious, and the officers rescued Fei Wen.

Although Steven is the commander of Malka City, not everyone under his command obeys his orders.

Many officers were just frightened by Steven's threats and temporarily complied.

But now Marka City is in danger, and the Yanzhou soldiers have clearly asked them to release Fei Wen.

They felt that the time had come to rescue Fei Wen.

"Who is attacking Marka City?" Fei Wen asked urgently as soon as he came out.

The officers then informed the scandal of the ins and outs.

When he learned that it was King Yan's soldiers who came to rescue him, Fei Wen was so surprised that he was speechless for a long time.

He believed that he had no friendship with King Yan. It seemed a bit baffling that King Yan paid such a high price to come to rescue him.

But now he has no time to think about this. Steven, the traitor, will undoubtedly lead Malka City to destruction.

He couldn't let Franco's century-old business in the East be ruined.

So he said to the officers: "Steven colluded with the Japanese to try to trigger a war between us and King Yan. He is a traitor to our Franco. If we want to quell this dispute, we must defeat him and his men."

The Franco generals took out their swords from their waists.

An officer said: "Governor, we will obey your orders."

The other generals nodded.

With enough soldiers gathered around him, Fei Wen was shocked and immediately killed Stephen.

Bursts of gunshots and fighting sounds suddenly came from the city of Marka.

After a chaotic fight, Fei Wen forced Steven into a corner of the city wall.

Under the threat of Yanzhou soldiers, most of the soldiers sided with him.

"Fei Wen, you traitor, you actually colluded with King Yan's troops to attack Marka City. Just wait to be hanged, hahaha..." Steven laughed wildly.

Fei Wen's face was cold. Ever since Steven came to Malka City, he had not liked Steven for a day.

Because Steven's arrival is the result of Franchi's domestic conflicts.

At this moment, Franji is on the verge of civil war.

The conservatives and progressive factions in France were at loggerheads.

Among them, he belongs to the progressive group, while Steven belongs to the conservative group.

The moment Steven came to Malka City, they were destined to be incompatible.

Just to protect Franji's interests in the East, he could only pinch his nose and cooperate with Steven.

But he didn't expect that Steven would collude with Japan to detain him.

"Catch him and put him in a water prison." Fei Wen said sternly.

Then, he ordered the soldiers to raise the white flag at the top of the city.

Outside the city, seeing the white flag rising slowly, Pan Chang ordered the soldiers to stop attacking.

Not long after, the gate of Marka City opened, and Fei Wen led the Franco soldiers out.

Upon seeing this, Pan Changli asked someone to inform Zhou Yi.

An hour later, Zhou Yi arrived at Marka City under the escort of soldiers.

Seeing the very embarrassed Fei Wen who had just come out of prison, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Governor Fei Wen, you owe us your life."
