Traveler Major League

Chapter 163 News
When the Second Battalion Commander Wang Guan had just set off for Ganquan County, which was nearly [-] miles away, He Huchen led [-] elite cavalry to completely blockade Jiuxian Town, and spread nearly [-] elite cavalry along the road to Ganquan County. Detective sentries, reporting military information at any time, these cavalry are the eyes and tentacles of the officers and soldiers.

"Report, General, there are fifty bandit bandits on their way to the north, five miles away from here." There was a report from the sentry.

Because of the superiority of the cavalry of the official army, they are scattered everywhere like flies, so that any large troop movement of the People's Army will be detected.

"Okay!" He Huchen slapped his thigh fiercely when he heard the news, then stood up from his seat, and squinted around the room.

"Zhang Zhicheng, you lead two hundred cavalry to kill this thief." He Huchen pointed to his subordinates and ordered. The people's army we met before were all riding mules and horses. This people's army must be elite scouts with so many cavalry. Since there are so many scouts attacking together, there must be more thieves behind, and eliminating them means poking the eyes of the people's army.

There are only fifty cavalry, and He Huchen is confident that he can wipe them out.

But only an hour later, the two hundred cavalry sent out returned. It turned out that after this group of people went to ambush, they didn't dare to do anything at all, because the ten or so officers and soldiers who were chasing the fifty cavalry bandits ahead All the sentries were killed by rifles, not one remained.

He Huchen endured the anger in his heart of wanting to draw his sword to kill the most powerful subordinate in the past, and went to the place where the officers and soldiers died to watch the battlefield in person.

It can be restored that the dozen or so cavalrymen who were chasing were all set fire to at a distance of [-] meters. Six of them died on the spot. Their bodies were piled up together. In front of it was a big hole where the flesh and blood had been torn apart, and the other five fled along the road towards Jiuxian Town, thinking they were going back to ask for help, but after fleeing for three or four miles, they were all chased and killed, only the horse corpses of the officers and soldiers He and the human corpse were left in place, and other armor, weapons, etc. were stripped away.

Seeing their miserable conditions, even He Huchen, who is used to seeing life and death, was shocked. These elites didn't even have a chance to fight back. They were beaten to death a hundred meters away. He clenched his fists and got on his horse, but he didn't come He got up quickly, and when he got on the stirrups, he almost missed it. He let out a soft cry, and immediately attracted his subordinate Zhang Zhicheng to help him, so he didn't fall down.

He Huchen shook off Zhang Zhicheng's supporting hand, looked at the way he had come from on the horse expressionlessly, and finally could only say silently: "Be afraid of the enemy and not move forward, lowering the morale of our army, and beheaded according to the law!"

Hearing this, Zhang Zhicheng immediately knelt down, wanting to defend himself, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word. The other generals around him also lowered their heads and dared not speak. It was true, but they really didn't dare to speak.

After yesterday's battle, they made sure of one thing in private. Old thieves with rifles can only fight when there are few people. Once there are hundreds of people, they will have ten times the strength. It is difficult to gnaw in open areas. This time Although there are only fifty bandit soldiers in the area, they are all elites armed with guns to detect the sentries. It is true that the 200 of them have no intention of daring to tease them from top to bottom.

Of course, He Huchen also knew these truths, especially after he visited the battlefield to see the death of soldiers, so he sighed, turned his head and closed his eyes, and said slowly: "The big battle is coming, and the death penalty will be recorded first. Let's take the crime and make meritorious service."

"They are all heroes who died for the court's suppression of bandits. Write down their names and bury their bodies on the spot!" He Huchen waved the reins and took a step forward after speaking. The battle with Liu Ze cost him a lot As a subordinate, as a general, He Huchen always felt that he was not lacking in ability, but that his equipment was inferior to others, and there was a trace of guilt in his heart.

And the bandit Liu Ze is still running rampant. When He Huchen thought of this, he felt even more guilty. He couldn't let his subordinates die in vain, so he must win the next battle!
The eleven sentry posts that were lost belonged to the most elite soldiers even among the officers and soldiers. Although he still has seven hundred cavalry from nearly a thousand cavalry, the ones lost from yesterday to today were all the elite soldiers who dared to fight, in other words In other words, He Huchen's team has been greatly weakened, and it must undergo a long period of repairs and continuous victories before it can return to its previous combat effectiveness. This is one of the reasons why he led his men to slaughter a town. They need blood Courage to motivate, need to vent.

At this time, another sentry came to report, and a team of more than 1000 bandits was coming. This time, He Huchen no longer sent out his generals, but personally led the team to scout.

A group of people hid on the opposite hill and used the trees as a cover to see the whole picture of the people's army clearly. First of all, there was a pure rifle company with more than 200 people in the front, followed by an artillery platoon and a hundred red-haired soldiers. Behind them are the scattered militia companies, most of them have no armor, only the rifle company has carrying equipment and some cloth face armor, and the logistics convoy behind is also caught in the militia company, in short, it is one word - chaos.

"Shall we fight?" Zhang Zhicheng asked from the side. At this time, he was eager to take the blame and make meritorious service, but when he saw He Huchen's sharp eyes sweeping over, he shrank his body and explained: "The only thing the bandit army has to worry about is the one holding the firearm in front." , the thousand people behind, give me a hundred riders and they will be slaughtered."

He Huchen sighed, what he said was true, but in this kind of mountainous area, there was really no good way to take down the rifle company of the People's Army who had weapons on hand.

"Let them go, wait another day, they are far away, let's go to their camp to destroy their workshops, it is best to catch some of these thieves' skillful craftsmen, and they can also make this kind of magic guns and guns. Many people are worth it." He Huchen made up his mind, this is their focus.

The meeting room on the top of the concrete blockhouse in the middle of the bastion was full of people. Since the war, they have been meeting continuously, and this meeting made everyone look serious.

"Everyone, the officers and soldiers' scouts have already arrived under our noses. A group of elite officers and soldiers were found more than ten miles to the north. Fortunately, eleven of them were killed by us on the spot. Undoubtedly elite." Liu Ze rested his hands on the chopping board, narrating the information he just obtained.

"What does this mean? It means that part of the army must have moved to our Luochuan County."

Yang Zeming frowned and said, "But the scouts we sent out didn't find any traces of the big army." Turning his head and staring at Chao Zhongchen behind him, he asked, "Really? Company Commander Chao."

Chao Zhongchen didn't nod, but narrated to everyone with a complicated expression: "I didn't find traces of the officers and soldiers on the east, west, north, south roads, but there are too many mountain roads near us, and the small roads can't be explored at all."

As soon as these words came out, all the people present sighed anxiously: "What should we do?" "I don't know."

The atmosphere was tense for a while.

"We must find a way. We must mobilize the militiamen in various villages to look for the traces of the officers and soldiers. The villages in our Luochuan County are not concentrated in the camp like other counties, so we should be able to pass on news." Yang Zeming, who is in charge of the militia, suddenly suggested road.

"Then let's do this, send militiamen from the camp to seal off the mountain roads, so as to prevent the officers and soldiers from attacking here." Liu Ze said with a frown.

At this moment, a sentry suddenly returned to report that there was a massacre by the officers and soldiers in Jiuxian Town, and the survivors came to report that a large number of officers and cavalry were there.
