Water Margin farming to become powerful

With Tong Guan's unilateral suppression of the local death order, the protection army west of Fan County found that the situation it faced suddenly became tricky.

Twenty miles to the west of Fan County, Shi Xiu led more than 30 soldiers to the deep mountains. They were walking through the forest when they vaguely heard fierce gunshots coming from behind.

The team of a company stopped quickly, and the guards pricked up their ears to listen for a while, and said: "The southeast direction, Zhaojiawa, the news reported at the meeting yesterday is that the supervisory committee there is evacuating the local people, and it must have been intercepted by the Song army. "

Shi Xiu nodded: "Lao Qi, how many main forces of the enemy came when we passed Liu's Village today?"

The guard replied: "The village is not full, there will not be more than 80 people."

"There is an enemy banner team in this place, with more than 500 troops stationed there, and at least 300 people will be dispatched to sweep down the village. There are only more than 80 people in Liujia Village today, so the main force must go elsewhere."

"Commander, what do you mean?"

"There is only one nursing team in Zhaojiawan. More than 100 nursing teams will face the enemy's main force, and they will also be responsible for transferring the villagers. I'm afraid the burden will be heavy."

"But leader, we are almost running out of ammunition for today."

Hearing what the company commander said, Shi Xiu also hesitated. His grenadier regiment was supplemented from the earliest grenadier reinforcement battalion, and each soldier was recruited by himself, which is very precious.

Ten days ago, Shi Xiu was ordered by Xiao Wang to transfer a battalion to the west of Fan County, but he didn't expect that Tong Guan's Song army's sweeping power was far beyond what he had imagined before.

They fought very hard. Up to now, there are already problems with supplies, and the losses are also very large. Just after completing the mission, they rushed to help the friendly army. They were afraid that they might get in, but he was a little hesitant to leave like this.

Standing on the spot and listening for a while, Shi Xiu heard that the gunshots in the southeast became more and more sparse, and after a while, only intermittent sounds remained.

He really couldn't sit idly by, "Each of us still has a few grenades, and the firepower is still enough." Pointing to the southeast: "Go to Zhaojiazhuang!"

After the commander gave the order, he went out first, and the soldiers urgently put the last lead bullet into the musket, and then arranged the grenadier's equipment, and hurriedly began to walk through the mountains and forests.

When Shi Xiu and the others came to the port of Zhaojiawa, they saw a group of Song soldiers fighting fiercely with members of the nursing team.

The people in the village had already evacuated, and Song Jun rushed out from behind the village, forcing the members of the guard team into the forest.

The members of the nursing team seemed to want to escape into the forest, but they were bitten just after they escaped outside the village. At this time, they still had to cross a river from the forest.

On the other side of the river, there were more than a dozen cavalrymen of the Song Army crossing the river on horseback, preparing to block the back of the nursing team members.

Shi Xiu knew that as long as the Song army crossed the river to complete the siege, the members of the nursing team would be unable to escape even if they wanted to.

Shi Xiu hurriedly asked his subordinates to prepare, and then he gave an order.A dense volley of guns fired in the forest. Shi Xiu snatched the guard's rifle, aimed at a cavalry on the opposite side, pulled the trigger, and knocked the cavalry off his horse.

Song Jun, who thought he could complete the encirclement, was startled when he heard a sudden burst of gunfire in the forest.

The leader of the Song army below was flustered, and discussed with the people next to him for a while, as if he was sure that there should be an ambush by the protection army in the forest.

After all, after fighting for so long, Song Jun could hear the difference in the sound of the gunshots. Shi Xiu's regular army all used rifled guns, but the nursing team did not have such firearms.

These Song soldiers were shocked, and they retreated to the village without knowing the situation, while the nursing team took advantage of a narrow road, everyone's faces were happy, and they took advantage of this time to escape to the mountains and forests.

A strong man in his thirties held Shi Xiu's hand excitedly, "I am the captain of the nursing team in Lijia Village, and my name is Li Si."

Shi Xiu asked strangely: "Aren't you from the team here in Zhaojia Village?"

The man shook his head and said: "We are here to assist Zhaojia Village to evacuate the villagers. I didn't expect that group of Song soldiers to come so fast. The local nursing team in Zhaojia Village was dispersed before we arrived. Let's catch up At that time, they had already retreated into the forest. When Song Dog saw us coming, he left them and came after me again."

At this moment, the sound of people shouting and neighing came from all around the forest. These Song soldiers wanted to surround them in this forest and search slowly.

Both Shi Xiu and Li Si showed surprise on their faces.

This group of Song soldiers was much more ferocious than what they had seen before.

"These people have already mastered it," Li Si said. They would have run away when they saw our firearms more than ten days ago, but they didn't think about it for a few days, but now they insist on it.

Shi Xiu shook his head. He felt that Song Jun's learning ability was not so strong. The reason for such a big change was probably because the superiors gave orders to suppress the bullets, and there must be brave men under heavy rewards.

But it's meaningless to say these things now, he looked at the direction of the forest and said, "Let's retreat up the mountain first!"

The crowd gathered for a while, there were still more than 50 people left, and they hurriedly walked towards the forest.

Traces of previous fights can be seen everywhere in the forest. It is obvious that Zhaojiawa's midwifery team was chased and killed by the Song army after they went up the mountain.

After walking up a few hundred meters, Shi Xiu saw the body of a young soldier from the nursing team.

The gun next to the body had been taken away, and the soldier was hacked to death by a knife on the top of the head.

There was no way to bury it at this time, so Shi Xiu knelt down and closed the little soldier's eyes before continuing to walk upwards.

Not long after, a more tragic scene appeared ahead. The corpses of many soldiers were scattered here, some were killed by arrows, and some were wounded by muskets.

Song Jun has also learned to use muskets recently, and it is not known whether they learned it by themselves or with the help of traitors from the Supervisory Committee.

Continuing to walk, Li Si suddenly ran forward excitedly, then turned over the dead body of a middle-aged man on the ground, and checked it for a long time.

Then Li Si cried: "He is the captain of the Zhaojiawa Nursing Team. When we were doing private business in the past, the two of us were brothers who died."

Seeing the tears in Li Si's eyes, Shi Xiu could only comfort him: "Let's retreat first, and come back later to give this brother a grand burial."

Li Si's hands were trembling and he nodded, but he didn't have time to tidy up his brother's body at this time, so he could only wipe away his tears and continue walking upwards.

Li Si suddenly said: "My brother came to Zhaojiawa the year before last. It was the only daughter of Zhao Dahu in Zhaojiawa who recruited him. When the supervisory committee came, the couple joined our supervisory committee together. Team, I'm afraid..."

Listening to his words, the soldiers of the Grenadier Corps had a bad feeling in their hearts, and Shi Xiu didn't dare to say it. They continued to walk up, turned around an old locust tree, and saw a woman hanging from the tree. They all froze for a moment.

Li Si cursed instantly:

"Tong Guan, I honor your three generations of ancestors!"

The woman looked to be only twenty years old, quite attractive, but at this moment she was really miserable.

An incision was cut directly from her stomach, and all the internal organs flowed out, and what made the soldiers unbearable was that the woman's pants were still taken off.
