Behind me is the earth

There was a sound of "sucking, sucking, sucking" eating noodles in the military camp, and the soldiers licked the bowls clean.

After eating, the auxiliary soldiers transported a large amount of ammunition and grenades to the front line, waiting to be replenished at any time after the war was consumed.

"The enemy has moved out!"

On a hillside at the rear, an antenna was erected to receive telegrams from the front.

The coach's camp was also here, and the orderly soldier turned around and said to Liu Qiang, who was sitting there with his eyes closed to rest.

"Continue to observe and report every 5 miles."

Liu Qiang didn't open his eyes. He was still thinking about whether there was any imperfection in his tactics.

It was also his first time to command such a large-scale war. Although he relied on the military books he had read before and after several deductions and exercises, he knew how to deal with this kind of war, and he used hot weapons to face cold weapons. Even if he defeats many enemies with fewer enemies, he still has the confidence to defeat them!

However, being able to reduce one's own casualties as much as possible and attack the enemy's effective force as much as possible is directly related to his arrangement.

Time passed bit by bit, and bursts of chants came from outside. This was the militia group, which was undergoing training in company units. Liu Qiang went out and took a look. The militia group had already formed under the command of Lu Feihu. Three square formations were on standby.

The main soldiers have also formed a square formation.

When they charge, they don't have to form a formation like a militia. They use the trio as the basic unit, the platoon as the unit to cooperate with each other, and the company as the unit to cover each other. They are loosely integrated and can better exert their own combat effectiveness.

"The vanguard of the thieves is still five miles away!"

shouted the messenger.

Liu Qiang picked up the intercom and pressed the intercom button: "I am Liu Qiang. All units are checking weapons and ammunition and preparing for war!"

"receive!"

The officers' voices came over the intercom.

Liu Qiang stood on the high hill and saw the troops everywhere taking action immediately.

The three phalanxes of the militiamen arrived at their predetermined positions and formed the "〔" formation.

When Liu Dajiang came to the battlefield chosen for him by the Qingcheng regiment training, what he saw was this group of soldiers in formation!

"The formation is loose, there are no gongs or drums, and there is no enemy flag. Will these people fight?"

Even though Liu Dajiang was a general from the peasant army, after years of study, he had to have military drums and flags to command the army, so that he could command and convey orders, form corresponding enemy formations, and respond in a formation that suited the terrain and number of people. War with enemy forces.

But there was nothing on the opposite side.

"The general opposite is a novice who doesn't know anything, right?"

He couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that those previous scouts were really killed by monsters?"

He knew about monsters. He even encountered monsters causing trouble when he was in Fengtai a few months ago, and was later killed by the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.

There are also rumors of monsters in Mangshan Mountain in Beiwan.

"General, these people are in good condition. I'm afraid there is something behind them."

The staff on the horse next to him raised his hands and reminded him.

Even when facing one's own army, the enemy's formation was not chaotic at all.

"Send someone over to communicate first... No need."

Liu Dajiang wanted to send someone to communicate, but at this time, the enemy troops had already begun to march forward in formation. This was obviously a signal to start a war!

"This group of people seems to be less than 10,000 people. You just don't know where this army comes from, and you are acting so arrogantly. Let me weigh you and tell you how good you are. You dare to block my way, Liu Dajiang!"

Go ahead and try it out with the cannon fodder first.

The main soldiers were divided into frontal formations, preparing to attack the enemy's three square formations.

The cavalry stands ready to attack from the flanks! "

Liu Dajiang ordered.

Below, the messenger immediately ran down on horseback and passed on Liu Dajiang's order.

Liu Dajiang said it was easy, but at this moment, his heart was not at all easy.

Thousands of soldiers from the other side had no drumbeats or flags, but they were able to march at the same pace, each with orders and prohibitions, and the three square formations marched forward in unison. Such an army has never been seen or heard before, and it is incomprehensible!

Zhang Heizi and his men lined up in the first row of the central square, walking forward to the sound of the whistle "beep~beep".

After patrolling for more than half a month and killing countless defeated soldiers, they looked at the enemy's cannon fodder rushing up with pickaxes, wooden sticks, and even bare hands. Not only were they not afraid, they even felt a little funny.

What is there to be afraid of in such a battle?

"Beep!"

"stop!"

The company commander received the order to stop through the intercom, and the whistle in his mouth stopped. At this moment, the team also stopped as it had done countless times before during training. Except for the sound of breathing, the team was silent. Each person stood there solemnly, like a solid wall, full of chilling sounds. gas!

They looked at the chaotic, swarming enemy troops rushing towards them from afar, without any emotion on their faces.

"First row, raise your guns!"

The company commander's shouts were amplified by the loudspeaker in his hand.

At this moment, the militiamen integrated into the collective were as precise as a part of this large war machine, each doing their own thing at this time.

The militiamen in the first row of the three square formations all took a step forward and raised their flintlock guns.

Waiting silently, waiting for these enemy troops to reach within their effective range!

One breath, two breaths, three breaths, four breaths... everyone was silent, their fingers on the trigger.

Thanks to the long-term preparation training, the training procedures have been deeply engraved in their bones.

After experiencing the task of clearing up the defeated soldiers, most of the militiamen had their hands stained with the lives of those defeated soldiers.

At this moment, the entire war machine is stable.

They stared closely at the charging enemies, and no one pulled the trigger in advance.

"put!"

With an order.

Because of the enemy's dense formation, there was no need to consider the accuracy of the shot. The order to fire began at a distance of more than 200 steps (about 400 meters).

"Bang bang bang!" The sound was loud, but in a very short time, the first row of the three square formations had already poured out the bullets in the gun chamber.

At the same time, the cannon fodder that was being driven on the battlefield was suddenly stunned!

The cannon fodder rushed up in dense formation, and hundreds of people fell down in the front row in an instant. Those who were not shot to death on the spot struggled, howled, and were trampled.

Countless cannon fodder standing in front looked at their fallen comrades beside them. A cold air suddenly rushed from the soles of their feet to their brains. A feeling of fear instantly emerged from their hearts. They couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies. They were afraid. His whole body trembled.

They are just a group of common people who have been held hostage by the rebels and have not experienced any training.

However, the people behind did not know the situation and were pushed forward.

In front of the Qingcheng militia square formation, a sheet of white smoke had risen, blocking their sight.

Fortunately, they do not need to watch the enemy's casualties, they only need to follow orders and fire.

After the first row finished shooting, they immediately squatted down and began to quickly change bullets.

The second row already had their guns in hand and pulled the triggers.

When the third row pulled the trigger, the first row, in a skilled and mechanical movement, had completed the reloading and pulled the trigger again!

Almost a seamless connection.

The white smoke became more and more diffuse, and the white smoke completely blocked the sight of the militiamen. On the contrary, they were less afraid in their hearts. They only remembered the movements in their hands, quickly pulling back the gun, stuffing the primer pack and projectiles, and pressing the push rod to the bottom. , raise the gun, pull the trigger, pull back the gun... over and over again, repeating the mechanical action.

300 meters above the sky, several drones were flying at the same time. They were either hovering in the air or quickly passing by each other. Always observe the enemy's movements and transmit any moves and changes back to the command post on the hill in real time.

After two rounds, more than 4,000 enemy cannon fodders have fallen!

The two sides were still more than a hundred steps apart, and before the hand-to-hand exchanges began, the enemy was already in chaos!

Some people turned around and ran back. Countless people collided here, and chaos arose.

Liu Dajiang looked at the chaos on the front line and felt extremely anxious!

"Immediately press forward, the regular soldiers... the old battalion immediately press forward! Drive away the people in front! Push the chariot up! Cover the archers, and the archers will launch!"

He shouted loudly.

Seeing such a battle situation, even if those newly recruited recruits press forward, they are no better than those cannon fodder!

They can only press forward with their three thousand old soldiers. Only these people have the courage and ability to clean up the battlefield.

The messenger immediately rode away on horseback.

Liu Dajiang's eyes were scarlet: "What the hell is this army? What the hell is this army! There are firearms, such sharp firearms! They fired at more than 200 steps, and they can cause such casualties!"

Damn it, you sent out so many scouts, you can't even find out who the other party is, so you're a fool, so you can use it! "

His temples were beating with anger, he raised the whip in his hand and swung it towards a young general wearing silver armor next to him.

The silver-armored young general grasped the tip of the whip with one hand and said coldly: "General, you don't want to be so angry."

"snort!"

Liu Dajiang took the whip back and snorted coldly. Suddenly, he pulled out the long knife on the horse's back, flashed through the void with a "whoosh", and cut off the head of the adjutant next to the silver-armored young general. The blood flowed violently: "Liu Chunsheng, remember, this army now, be mine!

And you are my subordinate! "

The silver-armored young man's chest rose and fell violently, and his eyes were about to burst into flames.

After all, he still held the handle of the knife tightly in his hand and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Liu Dajiang has a violent personality, but his commanding ability is pretty good. He rushed forward in regular formation and instantly cut through the rioters in front.

Cover the archers and rush forward.

However, even if the bow and arrow are fired at a high angle, the distance is only about a hundred steps. It is no more than a dream to risk bullets to reach the opponent.

After the main soldiers rushed out, they were immediately hit by the power of the guns. The shields on the chariot in front, which were covered with leather and thick wooden boards, were hit by flintlock bullets, causing wood chips to fly and crackle! Moreover, the shield car could not block everyone, and people were hit by projectiles from time to time.

Finally, we walked about a hundred steps under the hail of bullets. The closer we got, the more powerful the projectiles were. From time to time, shields were penetrated and hit the soldiers behind the shield vehicles. After that, it was difficult to move even an inch!

"Archer!"

The archers behind bent their bows and fired upwards, and in an instant thousands of arrows shot into the sky!

However, the effect was nothing.

At the end of the strong crossbow, the force cannot penetrate Lu's silk. Most of the arrows failed to fall into the militia square formation at all. Occasionally, arrows did fall, but they failed to interrupt the rhythm of the militia party's design.

Liu Dajiang stood on a high slope, watching the scene on the battlefield, and became anxious: "No! It can't go on like this! Liu Chunsheng, you immediately lead people around to harass the enemy's firearms camp. You can't let them fire guns like this!"

Just when Liu Dajiang was extremely anxious, Liu Qiang's mentality was much more relaxed than when the war started. He looked at the picture transmitted by the drone on the monitor, judged the enemy's position based on the grid distance above, and picked up Walkie-talkie: "Qin Sheng, prepare to fire and launch the cannon."
