Daming kill

Chapter 158-Baptism
When Song Baolai covered his mouth with a towel and vomited all the way to find Li Ping, Li Ping had been standing in front of a wooden cannon in a daze for a long time.

Just casting a glance at the thick black guy, Song Baolai looked up and down Li Ping hastily with a pale face.

Soon, Song Baolai asked anxiously, "Brother, where are you hurt?"

"I am fine."

Li Ping said something copingly, but his eyes were still fixed on the wooden pillar on the ground.

But Song Baolai didn't seem to believe it. He asked for help to see the soldiers not far from Li Ping.

Li Ping's current image is very scary.

The hair that had already taken off the iron helmet was messy and scattered, his face and body were covered with blood, and the chain mail had several big holes, and the black cotton armor inside was also turned white in many places.

Whether Li Ping was injured or not was difficult to judge by sight.

The soldiers naturally understood Song Baolai's meaning and hurriedly shook their heads knowingly, but Song Baolai was still staring at them.

A soldier had no choice but to whisper, "Mr. Song, the general is really not injured."

Only then did Song Baolai visibly relax, complaining: "Li Ping, you scared me to death, you are really crazy today, you are too desperate."

Song Baolai called Li Ping by his first name, which made several soldiers look over in astonishment.

How disrespectful!
In public, Song Baolai always pays attention to respecting Li Ping's authority. Ordinary soldiers seldom or hardly hear that Song Baolai is not big or small to Li Ping.

Today, Song Baolai must be really in a hurry.

"But we won."

Li Ping's answer was very flat, and he didn't show any displeasure.

Seeing Li Ping's reaction, those soldiers quickly turned their heads away, pretending that they didn't hear anything, and at the same time, their relationship between the two was turned upside down.

"What is this?" Song Baolai followed Li Ping's gaze and began to examine it.

"Cannon, wooden cannon."

"Is this a cannon? The cannon that hit us on the wall just now?" Song Baolai yelled in disbelief.

After speaking, he squatted down and pulled it up with his hands.

After finally confirming that Li Ping was not fooled by him, Song Baolai stood up and said in amazement: "This thing almost turned us into tortoises? It's really a miracle that it can actually explode?"

"You can see that its gun body is very thick and long, and the wooden stripes are also very neat. It may be directly hollowed out with a hard tree trunk. Although the gun muzzle is small, the range is estimated to be pitifully small, even Maybe it can only shoot shotguns, but it is really a cannon." Li Ping explained.

"It's really insightful." Song Baolai said in amazement.

Li Ping in another life had heard of this crude cannon, and he was very embarrassed to see it with his own eyes today.

Although the wooden cannon was more like an oversized toy, Li Ping felt that he might never forget this thing for the rest of his life.

It was such a thing that made Li Ping's troops feel the sourness of being bombarded for the first time.

Artillery is an absolute nightmare for soldiers.

"Fortunately, they are just bandits. If they have fast-loading and stronger Fran cannons, even if they are tiger squatting cannons, we will not be able to afford it. Ten siege and five attacks, but we are only three. It is a fluke to win .” Li Ping said solemnly and lamented.

"Cannon, a sharp weapon for defending the city, I wrote it down." Song Baolai nodded seriously.

At this time, Mayong came over.

"71 have died and more than 200 have been injured. Many of them are not optimistic, especially the casualties of officers." Ma Yong reported dejectedly.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, hearing this set of numbers still made Li Ping's heart tense.

The casualties are almost one-fifth, this is definitely a tragic victory.

"Company Commander Huang of the First Company died in battle, Deputy Company Commander Zhu of the Eighth Company also died, and Ma Guang, the platoon leader of the Fourth Company, also died..." Mayong paused and then added in a guilty whisper.

"What?" Li Ping and Song Baolai stared at Ma Yong in surprise.

Looking at Ma Yong's head that could no longer be lifted, Li Ping slapped himself on the forehead depressedly.

He is all too familiar with these people.

The company commander Huang An is a very stable person, his absolute direct descendant has been following him since Zhuxian Town, otherwise he wouldn't be the company commander.

Zhu Erzhuang, the deputy company commander of the eighth company, was also an old man. He was suppressed by himself for a period of time due to poor assessment, and was promoted because of his hard work.

Not to mention Ma Guang, the platoon leader of the fourth company, his former personal soldier was also the second personal soldier he lost.

These people are not ordinary officers, they are the group of people he trusts the most, and they are the mainstay of his army.

The price is too great.

Li Ping regretted his willful and reckless behavior.

He thought, if the attack had been stopped first and the attack had been well prepared, the village would probably have been taken down as well, and the casualties would not have been so great!

He might have been a little too impulsive indeed.

Even he himself, if it wasn't for the stupid Liu Qiang who forced him to put on the chain mail in the end, he might have died when he squeezed and stabbed the enemy face to face on the wall of the stronghold.

They were able to win the squeeze and poke, and luck actually played a very small part.What's more is that they have the advantage of armor and the bonus that weapons are more suitable for this kind of confrontation.

As for courage, the bandits were not much inferior to them.

This group of bandits may be due to professional needs, mainly knives, and most of them are lancets.

This put the bandits at a disadvantage when facing Li Ping and his followers, who mostly used Yanling knives and spears, which were more suitable for stabbing, and the success rate of armor penetration was also very low.

This is also the main reason why Li Ping, who was at the front end wearing double armor, was able to survive.

Only Han Jiu who didn't wear armor was truly lucky.

"We must sum up this battle well, and we will sum it up here. If we don't sum up, we won't leave. The lesson is too profound." It took Li Ping a long time to speak out in a deep voice.

"None of the enemies escaped. Their walls not only restricted us from besieging from the water but also restricted them from escaping. A few who managed to snatch the boat at the last moment and escaped were all picked up by our cavalry scattered around the lake. .”

Ma Yong wants to report some good news.

But Li Ping is not interested in this now, he ran around the wall of the village, and he had an idea of ​​what was going on.

"Go and see the wounded soldiers!" Li Ping said sadly.

After speaking, he took off the heavy chain mail and threw it to the nearest soldier before striding forward.

On the way to the temporary medical center, every soldier who saw Li Ping stood up straight and awe-inspiring.

All the soldiers have witnessed Li Ping's ferocity today, and they have all witnessed miracles and inconceivables.

Most of them believed that without Li Ping's command and assault at critical moments, and without Li Ping's amazing bravery and fearlessness, there would be no reversal today, and no current victory.

As for Li Ping's rational understanding of armor and weapons, most of these soldiers never thought of it.

As for the first climber, Company Commander Han, although he was brave and brave, most of the soldiers believed that it was all due to Li Ping's good command.

In their eyes, Li Ping was full of awe-inspiring aura.

Especially as soon as Li Ping got under the wall, they were able to attack immediately, which added a layer of mystery to Li Ping, as if he had magical powers.

Soldiers respect the strong and need the strong most. They are eager to win.

The so-called temporary medical center is actually a large courtyard in the bandit's den.

At this time, the inside and outside of the courtyard were the places where the voices were the loudest, and various voices such as crying, cursing, and calling were intertwined inside and outside.

Before reaching the door, Li Ping frowned.

The chaos here was far beyond his imagination.

On the road outside the yard, on the open space, and inside and outside the adjacent houses, there were wounded in various positions waiting to be rescued, and there were more wounded companions among them.

Many people were shouting, wanting to get the first treatment, and the medical staff shuttling among them were all sweaty.

"I'm not going in." Song Baolai stopped far away, his face paler already.

After Li Ping said "hmm", he squeezed into the crowd with Ma Yong with a gloomy face.

"General!"

"General!"

"It's the general."

Everyone who saw Li Ping hurriedly got up to salute and give way. Even the many wounded were struggling to get up, and the noise quickly subsided.

After finally squeezed into the more crowded courtyard, Li Ping happened to witness a quarrel.

"We can't give priority to treatment like this. We need more manpower, more alcohol, enough boiling water, white cotton cloth..." A blood-stained young man in white shouted excitedly.

"What's the use of your yelling? With so many wounded, you have to check the rules one by one. Besides, you have to pay attention to first come, first served. Just take your time and go to work quickly." The health captain reprimanded dissatisfied.

"But, so..."

"General!" The health captain called out directly.

He was the first to notice the huge change in the surrounding voices, and subconsciously turned to the courtyard door, and while shouting, the whole person began to squeeze towards the door involuntarily.

"Why is this place like this? Is this a medical center or a vegetable market? Is this captain an idiot!" Li Ping, the health captain, scolded loudly as soon as he came over.

Everything around also fell silent in an instant, only some seriously wounded groaning in pain.

Everyone felt Li Ping's anger.

"Um, the wounded... Oh, there are too many wounded soldiers, beyond our imagination, we...we are seriously short of manpower and medicine." The health captain stammered and explained.

This was the first time he had seen Li Ping angry, and the image of Li Ping covered in blood added to the frightening effect.

"That's not the reason for the chaos here. Are you playing with the lives of my soldiers?" Li Ping scolded with a sullen face.

"Plop" sound.

The health captain was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and hurriedly explained with tears in his voice: "The little incompetent is the little incompetent, but the little one really doesn't have..."

At this time, Li Ping no longer had the mentality to keep admitting mistakes, and he looked around the yard full of wounded, feeling even more anxious.

He must immediately resolve the current mess.

"Ma Yong, don't do anything else, you take over here." Li Ping suddenly ordered loudly.

After Ma Yong's subconscious response, Li Ping calmed down as much as possible and said:
"Immediately triage the wounded.

Requisition more places to completely separate the slightly injured, seriously injured and moderately injured. All medical staff should give priority to rescuing the seriously injured and carry out rescue work according to priority.

The medical soldiers of each company and the part-time medical soldiers of each squad were all gathered together for unified deployment.And hurry up and let the security battalion immediately deploy some women to assist in nursing and service work..."

"General, we need alcohol most urgently now, and the original reserves are too small." The young man in white interjected at this moment.

Li Ping glanced at this young man in a white coat, and he remembered this unfamiliar face.

This doctor surnamed Jia is said to have very rich experience in battlefield rescue, and he admires Gao Lei extremely, and he is obsessed and extremely fast in learning new hygiene knowledge.

"From now on, you are responsible for the ambulance work here. All the medical staff and treatment deployment are up to you. If you need anything, go to the chief of staff, and he will provide you with all support." Li Ping suddenly announced.

"Alcohol, what about alcohol?"

While Jia Youliang nodded, he asked about this. He knew very well that food was needed to make alcohol, and Ma Yong obviously couldn't decide on this matter.

"Go and tell Song Yingguan to organize people to make alcohol immediately. Don't be afraid of wasting food. The lives of soldiers are the most important thing now." Li Ping said to a soldier who had been following him.

"General wise!"

Someone suddenly shouted.

"General Wise"

"General Wise"

……

More people started shouting, and then thunderous applause quickly broke out.

Hu Zhongshan, who didn't know when he slipped into the courtyard, had a look of embarrassment.
