Fire phoenix and Zhou Qingfeng are fighting fiercely. Governor Xue Sancai in the city is greatly encouraged by this. He orders the city gate to be opened and thousands of people recruited in the city are thrown into the battle. In his opinion, the rebels must be flustered at this moment. It is a good time to attack and defeat the enemy.
Outside the city, the supreme commander of the 'Jingjin Army' is Yin Hu, who just arrived yesterday. He immediately realizes that the appearance of fire phoenix has a huge impact on his morale. The local workers are generally kneeling on the ground while the militias from Liaodong are in a daze. The soldiers and soldiers of the Imperial Guard are more determined, but they also lose the initiative.
Yesterday, after Yin Hu came to support with the militias and workers, he immediately built a simple camp for Zhou Qingfeng's siege troops outside the east gate of Tianjin Town. Some trenches were dug, wooden fences were built, and tents were set up. However, these fortifications are so simple that they are not strong at all. They certainly can't block the enemy's attack in the city.
While his mind is in a mess, Yin Hu can only think of letting the Imperial Guard stabilize the camp. As long as his side is not in chaos, everything will be fine. He hurriedly finds Ye Na who is about to help Zhou Qingfeng and shouts, "Which troop in the camp is the most reliable? Who is most loyal to Grand Marshal? "
Ye Na also sees the fire phoenix in the sky. She also sees Zhou Qingfeng's triplane being chased by the fire phoenix. She knew that the current situation was urgent. The danger did not only come from the auspicious beast, but also from within. Zhou Qingfeng could use a dozen or so bags of explosives to blow up the Ming army's ten-thousand-man camp and cause them to flee. The Ming Dynasty's fire phoenix could achieve the same effect.
In response to Yin Hu's question, Ye Na says without hesitation, "Female soldiers, Chai Jie's female battalion. They are the most fanatical. They are the troops that will grit their teeth and follow Grand Marshal. "
The gate of the east gate of the town has been slowly opened. The Ming Army and the officials' troops are rushing out like a swarm of bees. They not only have more than a hundred horses, but also more than a thousand soldiers carrying native artillery. Behind them are thousands of strong young men sent by the officials in the city. These people had been suppressed by the artillery for a few days, and now their morale was greatly boosted, and they were eager to take revenge.
Seeing that more and more enemies were coming out of the city, Yin Hu gritted his teeth and said to Ye Na, "Zhou Qingfeng won't die so easily. Go and contact the cavalry and infantry. Tell them to stabilize the militia and workers in the camp. We must not fall into chaos ourselves. I'm going to look for Chai Jie. We need a team with a strong will to face the challenge. "
Ye Na was hesitant. She didn't know if she should contact the troops or help Zhou Qingfeng. Yin Hu actually went to look for Chai Jie's female battalion.
The combat troops that had arrived in Tianjin were arranged at the front of the camp, and the female soldiers who used firearms were even more so used to protect the catapult ballistae at the back. The unforeseen event in the sky above Tianjin City also gave the female soldiers here a considerable psychological impact.
When Yin Hu hurried over, he found that the female soldiers who had lost their commanders had come out of their tents and were looking around in a disorderly manner. Chai Jie herself was in a daze and didn't know what to do.
"Girls, it's time to test your will. Shouting a hundred slogans during training can't compare to a courageous attack on the battlefield. " Yin Hu found a wooden box and stood on it. At this moment, the political commissar was possessed by the soul of an almighty person. He used his eloquence as a teacher to educate students and shouted, "Grand Marshal saved you. Now you need to repay the Grand Marshal."
The members who could be selected to enter the female battalion were all upright people. Yin Hu's few words were enough to inspire their fighting spirit. Battalion Commander Chai Jie even felt deeply guilty that her will was shaken when she saw the Phoenix. How could a person who was willing to die for the Grand Marshal become weak in the face of a Phoenix? They were not even afraid of gods and Buddhas, so why would they be afraid of a bird?
With a swoosh, Chai Jie fiercely pulled out her commanding saber and shouted angrily, "Line up! If you don't want to die, immediately put your spear on your shoulder. In any case, we can't let others control our own fate. It doesn't matter if it's a dragon or a phoenix. If it blocks our way, we'll kill it with one shot. "
The female battalion's camp was at the front, only four to five hundred meters away from the city gate. Governor Xue Sancai also staked everything on one throw. He personally brought his own team of horses and retainers out of the city. However, he was delicate and noble, so naturally, he was unwilling to rush to the front line. Instead, he assigned the Ming Army that he gathered yesterday to the front to rush to the camp of the Beijing-Tianjin Border Army.
The tide-like Ming Army was approaching in a dense mass. Their speed was very fast.
The female soldiers in the camp were all stunned until they were roared by Chai Jie. It was as if they had been ruthlessly whipped. Only then did they wake up from a dream and mechanically completed the formation. The five hundred female soldiers spread out into three thin lines. Each line of one hundred people blocked the entrance of the camp. The remaining two hundred people were responsible for support.
As the distance between the enemy and themselves shortened, the female soldiers could already see the Ming Army who were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. They raised their weapons high and charged towards them. They didn't have to deal with the rural officials and gentry slowly in the past. The enemy on the opposite side was very proactive and their morale was also very high.
However, a few months of training was to maintain basic combat effectiveness in a high-pressure environment. Under the orders of the various levels of officers, the female soldiers still completed the preparation of lighting the fire rope, pouring the gunpowder, and inserting the lead bullets. The number of decomposing movements had been formed into muscle memory and could be completed without much thought.
Governor Xue rode on a horse and continuously urged his men to charge forward. He stood by the roadside about two hundred meters outside the city gate and shouted to the imperial soldiers that were rushing out, "Behead a traitor and reward them with ten taels of silver. Whoever can capture a traitor leader, I will recommend that person to be promoted to the same official position. If you can capture the traitor leader, it's not a problem to marry your wife and children. "
The various levels of officers in the Ming Army were also among the personnel who were going out. They kept repeating the rewards given by the governor to encourage the soldiers to go forward and kill the enemy. Just as the disorderly Ming Army charged to within a hundred meters of the camp, the female soldiers blocking the entrance had already finished loading. The one hundred muskets in front of them started to level and aim forward.
"Steady, don't panic." Chai Jie stood on a box at the back of the formation and held her command knife up high. "Let those idiots come close and let them run until they are out of breath. When they are beaten up and run away, they will hate their parents for not giving them a leg."
Outside the camp was a shallow trench that could be crossed with a single leap. Behind the trench was a row of wooden fences. The female soldiers' muskets were placed firmly on the fences. As the Ming Army soldiers approached, the female soldiers of the Imperial Guard could quickly see the crazy and ugly faces on the opposite side. They closed in from a hundred meters to fifty meters and then thirty meters. ….
The order to open fire still hadn't been given. The female soldiers' breathing became heavier and heavier. Some even felt dizzy because they were too nervous.
On the other hand, the Ming Army soldiers who were running over were excited again. After they rushed out of the city gate, they were forced to run by the generals. In one breath, they ran a few hundred meters and were so tired that they were panting. But when they saw that the opposite side was actually a row of female soldiers, they also started to howl like Xue Sancai.
"Bitches, bitches, the opposite side is a group of bitches."
"Brothers, let's catch the bitches for fun."
"These bitches are more beautiful than the other. They are even prettier than the prostitutes in the city."
"No one is allowed to compete with me. I want to catch two of them."
The enemy was still closing in. Many female soldiers were so nervous that their bodies were trembling. The howls of the Ming Army formed a sound wave. The obscenities reached their ears and made them even more shocked and angry. The female soldiers in the front row all felt their hands and feet tense, but they still endured and waited. Waited …
Open fire!
Chai Jie's command knife finally chopped down with a loud roar. At this moment, the enemy's vanguard was less than fifteen meters away from the battle line.
Bang, bang, bang …
The dense gunshots were deafening and instantly suppressed the howls of the Ming Army on the opposite side.
White smoke came out of the muzzle of the gun.
At such a close distance, a row of flying bullets almost all hit the target. There was absolutely no reason that they couldn't hit the target. The distance of fifteen meters was like a dead line. The Ming Army soldiers who crossed this line all flew backward. Blood splashed everywhere as they fell backward.
The moment the trigger was pulled, the nervousness of the female soldiers in the front row quickly calmed down. All the female soldiers retracted their guns like machines. They turned around and made way for their positions, walking to the back of the formation. When they returned to the back, a loaded gun would be handed to them. Zhao Ze had made a total of five hundred guns, which could allow the first wave of concentrated fire.
The female soldiers in the second row stepped forward. They put the muzzle on the wooden fence and aimed in front. The white smoke wasn't too thick. In front of them, they could still see a large number of Ming Army soldiers carrying out the final charge.
The second 'open fire' order quickly sounded. They also pulled the trigger. The snake rod pressed down and moved the match to ignite the gunpowder in the ignition pool. With a sizzling sound, the gunpowder entered the barrel of the gun and ignited the tightly stuffed gunpowder inside.
There was a certain delay in the firing of the gun. The female soldiers who held the gun would use this delay to close their eyes after pulling the trigger. Otherwise, the burning gunpowder would also force them to close their eyes. When the gunpowder in the barrel exploded, the butt of the gun would hit the shoulder and a lead bullet would fly out.
Bang bang bang …
It was another row of clean shots. The dead line fifteen meters away still existed. At this distance, the power of the twelve-millimeter bullet was very strong. The target that was hit would either have their head explode or their chest burst open. Every time, at least fifty bodies would fall and the firing range would be empty.
The white smoke became thicker. It was the turn of the female soldiers in the third row to move forward.
In a short ten seconds, more than a hundred people had died. The sound of gunfire was even more deafening. This was an extremely tragic massacre. The Ming Army soldiers who were launching an attack finally realized that the people in front of them weren't weak and easy to bully, but extremely fierce and terrifying female soldiers. However, they had nowhere to run.
Bang bang bang …
The third row, the fourth row, the fifth row. The continuous and dense volleys of gunfire were like the scythe of the Grim Reaper. With a light wave, a large number of lives were reaped. After five rounds of gunfire, the dead line was already filled with thick white smoke. It was difficult to see the scene on the other side. The shouts of the Ming Army were quickly retreating. Chai Jie ordered to wait for orders. All the female soldiers took the opportunity to reload on the battlefield.
When a new row of female soldiers aimed their guns forward again, the white smoke slightly dispersed. Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked outside. The outside of the camp was already a Shura killing field. Nearly three hundred bodies were lying on the ground in all kinds of strange postures. There were a few lonely Ming Army soldiers standing on the slaughterhouse-like ground, stunned.
A terrifying massacre, a glorious result!
The closest one was a general of the Ming Army. He relied on his protective spiritual power to avoid death in the rain of bullets. However, his head, face, and even body were splattered with flesh and blood. Under his feet were seven or eight broken corpses. They all filled the shallow trench outside the camp. He stood outside the trench motionlessly. The knife in his hand was broken. There was only half of it left.
The general of the Ming Army looked like his status was not low. However, his entire body was trembling and he had wet his pants. The white smoke dispersed. He could see clearly that there were at least dozens of guns aimed at him. All of a sudden, he let out a maniacal scream. He raised the half-broken knife and kept shouting, "Are you still human? Are you still human? "
Chai Jie stood behind the formation and coldly shouted, "Kill him."
Bang bang bang …
