I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 662 Encountered an ambush

After the rest of the 24th Division, they set off again and went straight to Bijie.

Entering the mountain again, it is a familiar taste.

This time, however, there were other twists and turns.

While passing a section of sheep intestines trail, Hua Jun encountered a sneak attack.

Thousands of Ming soldiers lifted their camouflage and suddenly jumped out of the gully next to them, killing the Hua army.

At such a distance, the Chinese soldiers had only time to unload the load on their backs, but it was too late to load bullets and bayonets, and could only rush to fight.

To kill with a gun without a bayonet and a big sword of the Ming army would really suffer more and more losses.

They stabbed the opponent with no pain or itching, and were stabbed by the opponent and died.

And there is a mountain behind them, and they can't escape. If they dare to leave their backs to their opponents and run up the mountain, they will die faster.

Being attacked has always been extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, there were not many Ming troops, so other soldiers in the Hua army who were not attacked quickly dropped their packages, loaded bayonets, and attacked the Ming troops.

They couldn't shoot because the attacked troops were already in a scuffle with each other.

These people with bayonets rushed into the melee area, making the passages crowded and crowded and chaotic.

Relying on the advantage of the number of people, Hua Jun gradually became the dominant side after getting through a little disadvantage in the early stage.

The soldiers of the Ming army kept dying in battle, so that the remaining soldiers lost their fighting spirit and quickly retreated.

If they don't withdraw, they will be surrounded and wiped out.

The Ming army fled, and the Hua army did not chase, but just took the opportunity to reload and shoot at those who escaped, killing one count as one.

They had just been attacked by surprise, and they were still in a state of shock, unable to organize a pursuit at all.

What's more, in such a broken place, it is very easy for the pursuit to fall into the enemy's new ambush.

If the purpose of the Chinese army is to destroy the enemy's strength, perhaps they should take the risk of chasing it and expand the results.

However, the purpose of their trip is to arrive in Kunming, and there is no need to worry about the enemies on the road. Preserving their strength is the most important thing.

Hua Jun did not chase, and those Ming soldiers who were lucky enough to survive had to escape.

On the top of the mountain in the distance, Zhang Tongchang watched this scene and shook his head.

This ambush was supposed to be very successful, and it rushed in front of Hua Jun in an instant, without even giving Hua Jun a chance to install a bayonet.

They were taking advantage of Hua Jun, who was holding an iron rod. Hua Jun could only barely cope with it, and he had no strength to fight back.

However, unfortunately, the place suitable for ambushing soldiers is too small, and only about a thousand people can be ambushed.

If thousands of people can be ambushed, this time the Chinese army might be wiped out.

Unfortunately, that kind of terrain can't be found at all. The ambush ground in front of you is already very good, otherwise Huajun would not have been unaware of any signs.

Although only a thousand people were arranged to be ambushed, as long as these people fought to the death, they could still cause great damage to the Chinese army.

However, Zhang Tongchang overestimated the fighting will of his own soldiers.

When the sneak attack was successful at first, they were able to maintain high morale.

However, once the Chinese army reacted and surrounded them, they became afraid of retreating and gave up the great opportunity to kill the Chinese army.

This is human nature, and Zhang Tongchang can't do anything about it.

Those were real soldiers, not marionettes.

Zhang Tongchang wanted to take these soldiers to die with the Hua army, but how could the soldiers below completely obey the orders?

Killing the enemy is more important than saving one's own life.

As soon as they saw that the situation was not right, they gave up the opportunity to effectively kill the Chinese army and chose to save their lives.

Generals and soldiers think differently.

"It's a pity, what a great opportunity."

Zhang Tongchang sighed, but he did not criticize the soldiers too much.

Under the empathy, if he was in that situation, he would run away without hesitation.

Killing and wounding the Chinese army is only good for the coach, and it is good for Daming, and it has nothing to do with the soldiers at the bottom.

They came to serve as soldiers just to eat, but they didn't want to work hard.

Subsequently, Zhang Tongchang also began to retreat.

This ambush was just the beginning, and he also arranged other means to wait for Hua Jun in the back.

Hua Jun cleaned up the battlefield, and the results of battle damage were also counted.

In this battle, they killed more than 300 Ming soldiers and captured more than 200.

The remaining hundreds of Ming troops escaped the battlefield.

However, it is not certain whether those people will return to the headquarters of the Ming army.

All in all, they were about to wipe out a thousand troops.

And their own battle losses are not small, about 200 people died, and more than 300 or 400 were injured.

It is really a big loss to fight against the enemy's broadsword and spear with a gun that has no bayonet and cannot be loaded.

They can only kill the enemy by smashing, and as long as they don't hit the enemy's head, they basically can't kill the opponent.

However, it is much easier for the enemy to kill them. Whether it is a knife or a stab, the damage to them is fatal.

Throughout the history of the war between the Ming army and the Hua army, it is extremely rare that such a situation is extremely unfavorable to them.

Hua Jun, who suffered a big loss, was also a little annoyed. They had hardly fought such a humiliating battle, and the casualty ratio was close to one to one.

If this is known by other friendly troops, I am afraid that it will inevitably be ridiculed.

The angry soldiers began to vent on the captives, and some even suggested that Li Lianfan kill them all.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

Li Lianfan hesitated. It was quite embarrassing for him to abide by military discipline and to appease the emotions of his soldiers.

"Master, now and then, if we don't kill these prisoners, then the Ming army will be even less afraid of us, and will continue to attack us.

And if we kill all these prisoners and let them know the fate of attacking us, they may not dare to attack us again. "

Some people have persuaded that there is some truth to what they say.

"Besides, if we don't kill them, we can't take them on the road. If we let them go, they will not only return to the Ming army to continue fighting against us, but also bring back a lot of information."

Someone took it out and supported the killing of these prisoners.

After thinking for a while, Li felt that what his subordinates said was reasonable, so he agreed to this suggestion.

Anyway, there are not many prisoners, just more than 200 people, and killing them will not have much impact.

After encountering this kind of sneak attack, Li Lianfan ordered the entire army to be more vigilant. All other equipment was carried on the back, and the rifle must be held in the hand, so that when encountering an ambush and sneak attack, there would be enough time to install the bayonet.

As long as they can put bayonets in combat fashion, they won't suffer.

They can't even put bayonets on their guns while they're marching, and that's pretty dangerous.

Once you fall, the bayonet can easily hurt yourself or your comrades.

Even if someone walks a few steps faster, or the soldier in front pauses, the bayonet may stab someone.
