Water Margin farming to become powerful

Zhang Xuan led more than forty Han troops and marched slowly along the mountain road.

At this time, not only the Jurchens among the remaining troops of the Jin Army felt that they were bound to win, but also the Han and Khitan people who fought with the Jurchens also felt that they were sure of victory against the Supervisors.

Many Han and Khitan generals who had been frightened before volunteered to make contributions to Wanyan Zongbi.

Wanyan Zongbi assigned some Han and Khitan troops to these surrendered generals.

Zhang Xuan also received a team of more than 40 people. He looked at his soldiers and saw that these Han sergeants no longer looked like the panic and embarrassment they had seen a few days ago. I am looking forward to the meeting with the Supervisory Committee.

Because they all know that what they are going to face is not the protection army that bombarded them under the county seat with nowhere to escape, but the maternity protection team who relied on their feet to climb up the mountain to encircle them.

Zhang Xuan walked behind the crowd and brought a group of soldiers to protect him.

He knew in his heart that the Jurchens were just using them to attract the enemy's attention and create opportunities for their main force to go down the mountain.

But Zhang Xuan also felt that his subordinates of the Han Army would definitely be able to defeat the Supervisory Committee's maternity care team, so he was willing to accept even the task of attracting firepower.

But as he walked, Zhang Xuan felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

It was quiet on both sides of the mountain road, and there was no sound from the simple defensive positions established in the dangerous mountainous areas in the distance.

There was no situation where people fled hastily along the way when they broke through Liu Shunren's garrison.

Zhang Xuan suddenly felt that the birth care team in front of him seemed a little different from the team they had joined before.

However, his generals did not seem to have such a keen sense. Seeing the maternity team defending in the distance, a Han general said to Zhang Xuan quickly.

"General, that's their fortress, let's attack it quickly!"

Zhang Xuan felt something was wrong, but in this situation, he had no reason to back down.

The enemy on the opposite side seems to have just been replenished, and the defense line is also very hasty.

So he nodded, pointed forward and said: "Those soldiers from the Supervisory Committee may have firearms in their hands. Brothers who go up should be careful!"

Although he said this, all the Han officers under him disagreed.

They were already familiar with fighting the maternity team.

Although the maternity care team is equipped with muskets, the equipment rate is far lower than that of the protection army.

Moreover, the Jurchens had specially chosen a night when they broke out earlier because it was difficult to operate the muskets of the maternity team on a snowy night. As expected, they achieved excellent results.

In the previous breakout battle, Liu Shunren's maternity care team had not successfully fired a few shots. Even if they fired, they would shoot randomly into the air and could not hit the enemies who were moving forward under the cover of trees in the mountains and forests.

Seeing that it was still dark, a group of Han soldiers from the Jin Army were holding their swords and touching the defense line of the birth care team in front.

According to their previous experience, such an action can still be effective on this windy and snowy night, and they can even directly touch the enemy's camp.

But the first few running soldiers had only reached more than 100 steps in front of the defense line when they heard the banging of muskets in the defense line.

It is inconvenient to use muskets in the dark night, and it is even more difficult to aim in the woods, but this burst of muskets still alerted the birth care team soldiers in the defense line.

The muskets scattered only two or three Han soldiers who came to attack.

But it also shocked Zhang Xuan.

The raid a few hours ago did not encounter such strong resistance at all.

At this time, he couldn't help but think too much. His soldiers had already rushed forward.

Zhang Xuan originally thought that as soon as his soldiers rushed into the defense line in front of the birth care team soldiers, they would collapse after a little resistance like the soldiers they encountered before.But they didn't expect that as they launched a charge here, not only muskets were fired randomly in the defense line on the opposite side, but there were also people rushing out of the defense line with long guns ready to fight.

There was only a hundred steps between the two sides, and they collided with each other in an instant.

Zhang Xuan was shocked when he saw the collision between the two sides.

It was completely different from what happened last night.

This time, all the soldiers on the delivery team in the defense line in front of them fought bravely to take the lead.

Last night they encountered Liu Shunren's maternity care team. When they were attacked in front of the defense line, the soldiers fired a burst of musketry and would abandon the defense line and run away when the enemy approached.

Therefore, these Han soldiers who came to raid today also thought that they could win as long as they could get close to the enemy's defense line.

But at this time, Zhang Xuan saw the birth care team in the defense line. After firing a burst of muskets, the soldiers saw that the muskets were useless when the enemy was close, so they simply put bayonets on the muskets, and then jumped from the defense line fortress. come out.

They came up with weapons and fought with the Jurchen Han soldiers who had surrendered without fear of death.

"Kill! Protect the country and protect the family!"

"Protect food and protect childbirth!"

The soldiers of the maternity team shouted slogans to embolden themselves. Their combat experience was far worse than that of the Liao Han people who had surrendered to the Jurchens.

However, they relied on the advantages of the fortress and laid many traps, tripping ropes and other things on the ground, and also formed a small team for close combat, supported by spears, swords, shields and crossbowmen.

These people faced the disorganized Han surrender troops who rushed down from a distance. They fought hard and instantly stopped the momentum of the surrender troops that rushed towards the defense line.

Zhang Xuan was surprised when he saw it.

How could this group of people suddenly have so much courage and dare to fight head-on with the Jin Army like them?
The people in front of them were so different from the crumbling maternity team they encountered the night before.

In the past, as long as the soldiers of the birth care team encountered cold weapons in front of them, they would often fool them and then abandon their armor and run away. However, although the soldiers of the birth care team in front of them were far inferior to the previous soldiers in martial arts, they fought to the death. Don’t retreat.

The more Zhang Xuan fought, the more frightened he became. He soon discovered that of the more than 40 soldiers he had sent to correct the situation, only about 30 of them had been beaten.

The maternity care team on the opposite line of defense only numbered more than 30 people. At this time, there were also casualties, so that only a dozen were still able to stand and fight.

"Protect food and protect childbirth!"

These people shouted slogans like crazy. One of the tall men had two arrows stuck in his body. He was bleeding profusely. He was obviously at the end of his strength. However, despite this, he still held out the spear in his hand and kept fighting. posture.

Just when this line of defense was about to be broken through, Zhang Xuan saw another group of dark support troops coming from the distance. It seemed that the number of people was another small group of more than 30 people.

Zhang Xuan panicked instantly.

He originally thought that he could easily win the battle with the more than 40 soldiers under his command against the soldiers on the opposite side, but looking at the current situation, even if he won this front, he would be taken away by the enemy in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Xuan never imagined how these maternity team soldiers could become so brave just after an hour. At this time, he regretted it extremely.

If I had known earlier, I would not have taken this credit to fight in the first battle. Now that I cannot defeat the enemy in front of me, if I retreat, I will definitely be killed by Wanyan Zongbi due to the disadvantage of the battle.

He was in a dead end.

"General, withdraw!"

The Han officers beside Zhang Xuan were also extremely surprised and quickly suggested running away.
