At this time, Wang Kun came to this battlefield in person, and suddenly he understood many things. He understood everything from the eyes of these rebels.
For decades, they acted like cows and horses, daring to get angry but afraid to speak out. Anger is like a volcano accumulated in the bottom of the heart. It accumulates over time and becomes frozen three feet in a day.
And the dog-eat-dog poisoning incident was just the last straw that overwhelmed their psychology. This incident has completely torn apart everything, the cloak of loyalty and virtuousness.
Let them realize that they can't deceive themselves no matter how hard they lie. They remain silent when others are being oppressed, and pretend not to notice when their loved ones are being oppressed.
They endured silently when they were oppressed. When their lives were about to be taken away, they could not deceive themselves no matter what, and allowed themselves to submit to the situation and kill them at the very least.
They discovered to their horror that they couldn't do it. Just like those rioters in Shaanxi, the county magistrate of Donglin angrily scolded them why they refused to stay at home and the whole family died of starvation quietly.
And to cause trouble for him. Why don't you want to understand that you have to study hard in a cold window and ruin your future?
These rioters were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do. The officials of the Ming Dynasty hated these unruly people the most for causing trouble for them.
Therefore, these border troops rebelled, and those mud-legged people who had no food rebelled. Because they used to have a way out no matter how difficult it was, but now, they have no way out.
Wang Kun sat stupidly on the floor, as if everything around him had become blurry. He thought quietly, if His Majesty didn't just want to save money, he didn't care whether these people lived or died.
Will they rebel? Your Majesty has never considered their future or how their wives, children, and children can survive.
Your Majesty wants to reduce military spending. His Majesty has abandoned them, and they have abandoned His Majesty. At this time, it is useless to say anything to them.
Everyone has broken up. These soldiers and horses in Ji Town won’t play with you anymore. For the first time, he felt that it might not be a good path for His Majesty to do this.
He was deeply worried about the future of Ming Dynasty. Zhou Yuji didn't have time to pay attention to the mental journey of a eunuch. He was nervously watching the rebels surging towards the barbed wire fence.
"Fire!" Following Zhou Yuji's order, the bugle sounded. Bang bang bang! A burst of gunfire rang out.
The rebels who rushed to the barbed wire fence found that they could not climb over the barbed wire fence, which was only 1.5 meters high.
This thing floated in the air without any force, and the people in front tried to climb up from the wire. But they quickly lost their balance on the swaying barbed wire, spun and fell, and those damn iron thorns pricked his hands, drawing blood.
Some people even hung on it, unable to get up or down. The more they struggled, the tighter the barbed wire became.
At this time, a dense firecracker sounded. Many of them are knowledgeable. They knew exactly how many kinds of fire guns there were in the Ming Dynasty.
As soon as he heard this sound, he knew that it was a damn Rumi gun. The Rumi gun has a long barrel, a large charge, and heavy lead bullets.
Not to mention the range, it's also accurate. This kind of fire gun from the Ottoman Turkish Empire is so sophisticated.
Japan's iron cannons also pale in comparison in front of him. Only the Spanish heavy matchlock gun called the turtle dove gun from Guangdong can rival it.
Although the rebels had tried their best to put the heavily armored infantry in front, many people still held up large shields made of log poles and thick bamboo.
However, it has no effect in front of Rumi Gun. The first volley fired as the smoke filled the air. The wooden shields and bamboo shields were smashed into pieces and shattered in large areas.
The rebels immediately fell to death in front of Rumi's gun. The lead bullets penetrated the armor and scales without any hindrance, and flowers of blood appeared on the chest of the person who was shot.
The huge impact sent these people flying backwards. The soldiers who rushed to the barbed wire fence and crowded together were shot one after another.
They can't pass in front of them, and those behind them rush forward. All crowded in front of the barbed wire fence. After the first row fired, they immediately retreated and began to reload.
They took out the gunpowder bag, poured gunpowder into the muzzle of the gun mouth to mouth, then took out the lead bullets from the bag at the waist, loaded it into the muzzle, pulled out the purge rod from under the barrel, and began to pound the gun.
The second platoon took their place at the front and opened fire on the barbed wire fence. At this time, the rebels crowded in front of the barbed wire fence could only use the shields they carried to resist as much as possible.
They tried to crawl over while enduring the blows from the firecrackers. However, most of them fell off.
Even caught or entangled in barbed wire. A general flag, shouting loudly, cut down these wooden stakes.
Immediately, someone used knives to chop down the wooden piles supporting the barbed wire fence. Others were slashing at the wire. If it is a modern knife made of good steel and a stone or brick is placed under the wire, it can cut these wires.
But the wire dangling in the air cannot be cut. Because they float around without strength.
Unless you use vise pliers, you can cut it easily, but the rebels don't have such a thing. After the second row fired, there was another pile of dead bodies.
At this time, some positions were suppressed by dead bodies, and the wires tilted inward at a large angle. This thing hangs loose after all.
If it's tight, it's easier to climb. Then the third round of shooting began. Once again, the rebels who tried to jump in by stepping on the corpses and hanging wounded were killed. Many people fell on the barbed wire fence and fell in.
Huang Hao looked at it with a telescope and said: "We should let the gunmen retreat into the city. There are too many dead bodies on the barbed wire fence, and they have been crushed in many places. The rebels will come up soon." Zhou Yuji nodded, this suggestion was very good. timely.
Barbed wire is not a panacea. If too many people die on it, it will bend inward and topple over. The people behind can jump in by stepping on the springboard made of these people's corpses and walking along the slope.
In fact, if the soldiers in front had the spirit of sacrifice, they would directly fall on the barbed wire fence to form a human springboard.
The soldiers behind him could step on his back and jump in directly, and their charge would not be hindered at all.
Bang bang bang! The gong sounded. At the same time, the steel plate at the back opened.
"Retreat quickly, retreat back to the city." Huang Yugang Xiaoqi shouted loudly. As a horizontal team, they fought for just one round, then turned around and ran quickly back to the city composed of the car camp.
At this time, the rebels' eyes were red when they saw the gunmen in the trenches running away. These people had just caused heavy casualties to them with three volleys.
At a distance of more than ten meters, the musket hit almost every target. Along the barbed wire fence, mourning was everywhere. They took out their three-eyed muskets and bows angrily and opened fire on the escaping musketeers.
It's just that this is a siege operation, and there are not many soldiers at the front with three-eyed blunderbuss and bows and arrows. Bang bang bang!
Whoosh whoosh! A few unlucky guys were shot in the back and fell to the ground. Everyone else quickly fled into the city walls of the car camp.
The soldiers in the car camp immediately closed the steel wall again and locked it.
