Zhang Heng’s caravan this time was quite large, and he came with ambitions. Either he didn’t come, or if he came, he would bring back as much sugar as possible to make a lot of money.

In order to protect the goods, there were naturally a lot of guards, including fifty people. But if they faced more than a hundred Beishuo cavalry, these few people would die.

Beishuo cavalry is famous all over the world.

Whether it was riding skills or sword fighting skills, he was unrivaled. Dacheng could not bear the disturbance. He sent troops to Beishuo many times but failed to take advantage.

This shows how tough the Beishuo people are.

It was difficult for the Dacheng army to deal with the Beishuo cavalry, let alone these ordinary guards, who could only deal with the bandits along the way.

Fortunately, these guards were quite sharp-eyed and immediately sensed that they were being targeted by the Beishuo people. After Zhang Heng learned about it, he immediately ran into the mountains with all his strength. When the Beishuo people’s marauding troops came after them, They had put some distance between themselves.

Otherwise, with the speed of the Beishuo people, there would be no need to chase a caravan for so long.

Boom!

After Zhang Heng’s caravan passed through the valley, a messy and powerful sound of horse hooves was heard. A moment later, the Beishuo people’s plundering troops plunged into the valley.

The leader saw that the valley was narrow, with lush vegetation and slopes on both sides. Such terrain immediately made him feel uneasy and uneasy.

He frowned and shouted, “Speed up across the valley!”

As he spoke.

Just when they all entered the valley and reached the middle section.

The armed guards suddenly appeared from the woods next to the entrance and exit of the valley, raised their flintlock guns and fired a round of mounted fire at the Beishuo people, with a sound like thunder.

Bang bang bang!

Streams of white smoke erupted from the barrel of the flintlock gun, and projectiles shot into the Beishuo people’s team at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye.

How can flesh and blood compete with gold and iron?

All of a sudden.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The iron projectiles penetrated the bodies of the Beishuo people, easily tearing their muscles, shattering their bones, and even punching them straight through.。

“ah! ”

More than a dozen people immediately screamed and fell off their horses.

Many horses were shot, and when disturbed by the gunshots, the horses suddenly panicked, causing the people of Beishuo to become a mess for a while.。

“what happened? ! ”

The people of Beishuo were shocked.

They didn’t see anything flying over at all. Why were they injured?

“Fire! ”

Bang bang bang!

Before the people of Beishuo could react, the second round of volley from the armed guards had already struck. Under the attack from the head and the tail, there was another burst of blood splashing, and people fell on their backs. The people of Beishuo had never seen such a scene before, let

alone They had never fought this kind of battle before, and the horses were frightened, so they became live targets and were killed one after another by the armed guards.

After training, the armed guards can now shoot about three rounds a minute. Because it is difficult to load rifled guns, they are now equipped with It was still a musket.

At this time, the armed guards adopted a three-stage shooting tactic, which was divided into three rows at the front, middle and back. The three rows took turns to fire and load. Basically, nine rounds of shooting could be carried out in one minute. This can definitely be called a hail of bullets

.

Only In just a moment, most of the people in Beishuo fell.。

“Escape! ”

Falling into an ambush, the Beishuo people who experienced the power of muskets for the first time panicked. They looked at the rows of armed guards holding fire sticks. They were

horrified.

Then they turned around and ran away.

Once they ran away, Xin’an The town was most likely to be exposed. Lu Ming’s order was to kill the Beishuo people. How could the armed guards let them escape?

Bang bang bang!

Another series of bullets flew across the sky.

The Beishuo people held on to the frightene

Whoosh!

The arrows fell into the Wuwei Army, and several people were shot. However, the formation of the Wuwei Army was not destroyed at all, and they were still standing in front of the formation. Take turns shooting under the command of the police.

Soon there will be another round。

“Fire! ”

Bang bang bang!

A stream of white smoke spurted out, and the flying bullets knocked down the Beishuo people in rows. The armed guards began to march, gradually surrounding the Beishuo people front and rear. As they

marched,

they shot.

And as the distance continued, As they got closer, the hit rate of the flintlock guns became higher and higher, frightening the Beishuo people to the point where they completely lost the courage to draw their bows and set up arrows. They just wanted

to escape.

On the mountains in the distance, Lu Ming looked at the situation in the valley, and he knew With the performance of the flintlock muskets, there was no way to easily defeat the Beishuo people. It

was inevitable that some people would be injured.

Fortunately, the Beishuo people experienced the power of muskets for the first time and became confused. The gun smoke also hindered the aiming of bows and arrows. It didn’t cause more casualties to the armed guards. All in all,

this could be regarded as a great victory.

He thought that if a machine gun could be set up at both ends of the valley, it would not take much effort to kill these hundreds of All the people were wiped out.

I thought so.

It’s just that the flintlock gun is still far away from the technology of the Maxim machine gun, and it should not be easy to develop into an automatic weapon in a short period of time. After the battle,

a

member of the Armed Guards The soldiers rode back to Xin’an Town as quickly as possible and reported the results of the battle to Lu Ming: “Report to your lord, this battle was a complete victory. The first to fifth teams of the Wuwei Army completely wiped out the Beishuo people, and captured 72 horses, one bow and one saber each. One hundred pieces, eight of our people were hit by arrows, but no lives were hurt!”

“very good.

Lu Ming nodded and said: “Those who participated in the war were rewarded with three measures of rice, and those who were injured were rewarded with one stone of rice, so that they can live well and cultivate themselves. “。”

“Thank you sir! ”

One stone is worth ten dou. If one person eats it, he can live for eight or nine months but cannot finish the rice. Such a reward can be said to be extremely generous and will definitely make the warriors more loyal. He Songsheng said: “Sir,

this battle has consumed a lot of money. A lot of ammunition, if not replenished, the remaining ammunition will not last long. ”

Almost 1,000 rounds of ammunition were used in this battle. There was not much gunpowder left in Xin’an Town, and now it is about to bottom out.。

“Then go meet Zhang Heng.

Lu Ming said: “When he comes this time, there must be a lot of saltpeter in the caravan. ” ”

Lu Ming told Zhang Heng before he left last time that he could do without anything else but saltpeter. If there was no saltpeter, he wouldn’t have to come here in vain. At the entrance of

Xin’an Town.

Zhang Heng was surprised. He looked back uncertainly, and after confirming that the Beishuo people were not chasing him, he felt relieved. He turned back to look at Xin’an Town, and was suddenly very surprised.。

“In just over two months, this town has grown to such a scale! ”

And unlike other places in the frontier, the people here have plump complexions and strong movements. You can tell at a glance that they are eating well.”。

“Weird! ”

Where did they get food in this deep mountain and old forest?

Zhang Heng couldn’t figure it out.

What’s even more strange is, what was the noise in the valley just now?

“Zhang Heng, you’re fine! ”

Before anyone arrived, the sound came first.

The guards led by He Songsheng poured out from the town and stood guard on both sides. Lu Ming stepped over with his hands behind his back and said with a smile: “If you don’t come again, I will go find you. . “
