Three days later, Yang Shanlu personally led the team and set off.
This expedition is very different from the first time I went to suppress the bandits. The women and children in the fort who came to see off were all happy, because every time they went out, they went out to make money... not to mention this time. It's with the supervisor of the team, there must be meat to eat.
As for the soldiers who went on the expedition, let alone, now that they have a set-up*, their spirits are greatly improved, and there is a taste of trying to see who can be the enemy in the world!
Of course, with Yang Shanlu often instilling strategic contempt and tactical importance with them, there is no need to worry about tail-lifting.
Including this time, these soldiers didn't know that they were going to annihilate a caravan, but they still had a high fighting spirit.
After a full five-day trip, Yang Shanlu led the team to the ambush spot, Qinghewan that afternoon.
This is also the place he had selected before he set off. Of course, in this era, he did not have a map here, so he still remained the same. He sent the elite troops in his hand three days in advance... Special battalion, wait until the ambush location and After the memory was infallible, this led the whole army to arrive.
After arriving here, the five members of the group were all applauded... This is really an excellent ambush place!
Because there is a big river turning a bend here, and the river is the only road, so when you start, you just need to block the front and the back to catch a turtle in the urn.
At this time, Yang Shanlu also made it public to his opponents. Of course, in his depiction, this caravan is even more abominable than the bandits!
This is because the bandits are only robbing the house and killing one party, but the eight great families in Shanxi are simply the general logistics department of Goudazi! Use the wealth of the Han to feed these wolves! It's unreasonable not to kill them!
So after Yang Shanlu talked to his subordinates, everyone was filled with indignation, saying that these scum who had forgotten their ancestors and betrayed their compatriots must be completely wiped out! Let them know what it means to be unrighteous!
According to the time in memory, this caravan of Fan's family will arrive one day, so Yang Shanlu just let the troops rest, and then set up an ambush along the river... Set up a gossip array and wait for ghosts to come. cast!
Qinghe Bay is not far from the side wall, and now it is beginning of winter, the weather is very cold, even this big river has been frozen! But fortunately, when the Xuan Jia army set off, they all brought enough supplies, so there was no problem.
Let me tell you, the novel app I'm using recently, both Android and iPhone support!
And in the afternoon of the next day, sergeants from the special battalion came to report... The target has appeared!
"Ready to fight!" Yang Shanlu waved his hand excitedly, finally waiting for this moment.
After Yang Shanlu issued the order, the entire Xuanjia Army quickly entered the state. The current Xuanjia Army, after four or five battles, has begun to smell like a strong army of iron and blood.
After a stick of incense, I saw a caravan snaking around. It is said that this caravan is really not small in size. There are more than 30 carriages connected end to end close to one mile, and the escorts are still there. This kind of strong young man, and the personnel in it are also very complicated, there are all Mongolians and Hui people.
However, these people have a very relaxed attitude. First, they have completed the transaction with their Manchurian uncle, and they have returned with a full load. Second, their caravan has strong firepower, and the course of action is extremely confidential, and it has been carefully screened. , Are safe areas to walk, so it is very safe.
But soon after they stepped into the ambush, they heard a gunshot!
Moreover, the Xuanjia Army is no longer what it used to be. Among the 200 soldiers, the proportion of soldiers is as high as 60%, which is more than a hundred guns! Coupled with mental arithmetic and unintentional, (the spies sent by the caravan have already been killed by the special battalion), so nearly 30% of the people fell off the horse in an instant.
"Enemy attack!" But after all, it is a veteran caravan, panicked and not confused! Immediately from the leading carriage, a 30-year-old fan from the Fan family emerged and began to direct the battle.
To say that they are one of the eight major caravans, their combat power is still quite good, all of them have bows and arrows, and many even have birdclaws.
What shocked them was that this time the opponent's firepower completely violated their common sense. After the first round of gunshots, less than a minute later, the second round of gunshots sounded again!
Moreover, the power of these bullets is extremely powerful. Although it is impossible for the escorts of these caravans to wear heavy iron armor all the time, they are also wearing sophisticated leather armor, which is enough to resist the flow. But now... As long as you stay close, you will be seriously injured if you don't die.
So the situation on the battlefield quickly fell into a disadvantage.
"Hold it up! Let me hold it all! Our Fan family treats everyone well, as long as we can go back alive, everyone will pay double pay!" The fan family kid shouted hoarsely, although he already had a premonition that this time was bad. , But still have a hint of illusion in my heart.
But soon, his last glimmer of illusion was shattered. After 5 consecutive shooting rounds, these ambushes actually launched a charge!
Seeing the enemies rushing over in darkness, everyone was still wearing dazzling Shanwen Jia, holding a long spear braving the cold in his hands, Fan Jianren felt that the sky was about to collapse!
But the so-called misfortunes do not come singly, and blessings do not come alone. Disasters do not stop there. At this time, from the big rocks near them, or the grass beside the road, many enemies popped out strangely!
These enemies are painted with oil on their faces, and they are wearing colorful clothes. What's more terrible is that there are flying knives that see blood in their throats, or *! Fold them from two sides!
So suddenly, the line of defense that was already unsupportable collapsed in an instant! No matter how powerful this caravan is, can it still be an opponent when encountering the Xuanjia Army that shouldn't have appeared in this era? Not to mention that he was sneak attacked by a special battalion that was ambushing.
So this battle will be called a quarter of an hour and 100 people in later generations. A quarter of an hour refers to the battle, from the start to the end, a total of one quarter of an hour.
And 100 people means that all 100 people in this caravan died in this battle! Either died in battle or put to death! As for the Xuanjia army, only 5 people were injured, which was a complete victory.
Of course, these escorts may not be guilty of death, but Yang Shanlu will not have the benevolence of women. What if they are let go and the secrets are leaked? So he can only say sorry in his heart... Since he is a tiger and has done things to apologize for the nation and the country, then he must be prepared to die!
Among them, Fan Jianren, the leader of the caravan, was even more unlucky. Because he commanded the resistance, he was killed by fierce firepower in the third round.
After his death, Yang Shanlu also looked for a survivor and asked who this person was
After Yang Shanlu knew that he was Fan Jianren, there was still a trace of emotion in his heart, and he actually met a celebrity...
In history, after the Qing army entered the Pass, the puppet Emperor Shunzhi has not forgotten to be the master of the Central Plains and established the eight great masters of Shanxi, and this Fan Jianren is also one of the leaders. He was not only entertained by Shunzhi in the Forbidden City, but also sealed. For the royal merchants! It's so glorious! But now... please rest in peace.
After deciding the battle, needless to say, the Xuan Jia army copied the experience of the bandit house, and the one who drove these big carriages was triumphant.
To say that the eight great masters of Shanxi, the reason they want to do this business without their conscience is because they have amazing profits!
It's like this time, what they brought to Tanzi were grains, rice, salt and other materials, and what they got back in exchange was ginseng, mink, and Dongzhu, except for a small amount of gold and silver. Such a good thing.
And even better, these things are not heavy and they are very convenient for transportation. So next, Yang Shanlu made people rush the car overnight, like a mouse that stole oil, and returned to Xiaoqiangbao smoothly, making a big deal. Windfall! (End of this chapter)
