Long Ye and Tietoutuo were originally very opposed to Xiao Letian climbing over the wall and returning to the inner house. In their eyes, they should immediately join the villagers and lurk inside Xiaowangzhuang, where they could secretly issue orders. As long as they waited until dawn, they would win. It's a done deal.
But Xiao Letian and Fan Qian disagreed. They had relatives in the yard. One was a deeply loved woman and the other was a beloved daughter. How could they give up? In the end, everyone couldn't get rid of them, and the cavalry who attacked them had begun to suspect their hiding position. In the end, they had no choice but to go around to the root of the side courtyard wall and climb over the wall.
At this time, the fighting area was basically concentrated at the main entrance, and not many people in the side courtyard were paying attention. Xiao Letian and his group easily climbed into the cage. Not long after they arrived at the main room of the inner house, someone from the Xiao family courtyard The outer house was eventually captured by the cavalry.
In the dark night, in the complex battlefield environment, muskets are not omnipotent. There were still many masters of horse control in the Qing Dynasty of that era. Human beings were very vulnerable in front of the rampaging horses.
A volley of muskets can kill a few horses and riders, but the sacrifice of the cavalry will always provide the followers with an opportunity to break the formation. What's more, there are a large number of untrained servants around these guards. They don't have a steel-like fighting spirit, and they can only fire guns from a distance.
The guards fought and retreated, and finally retreated to the moon gate that separated the inner house and the outer house. As the door was smashed, the outer house was completely destroyed.
"Back off, all back off, organize a shooting position here in the pond... I, Xiao Letian, will be guarding here today. I won't leave, not even half a step back... Hold the flag, hold up my big flag …”
The big flags Xiao Letian was talking about were the ten broken flags that accompanied everyone in the attack at Naha Port. They are now hidden in Xiao Letian's study. When Master Long and the guards who had fought in Naha heard that they were about to hold the flag, the fire in their hearts suddenly doubled in intensity.
"Raise the disabled flag... fight to the death!" The inner house suddenly erupted into the most violent roar of the night, and all the guards' eyes were red. At this time, Mike was also infected by the tragic atmosphere. He grabbed Matthew's arm and shouted, "This is the battle flag, this is the soul of all Chinese in Naha, this is the military soul of the Marine Corps..."
"Spencer... cum intensively!" Xiao Letian wanted to tear his chest apart and let out the fire in his heart. At this time, he couldn't care about anything else. A good man can't even protect a woman in his career.
Bang bang bang... Under Xiao Letian's command, the rifle fire was full of smoke, and several horses that rushed into the gate were overturned to the ground. At this time, Mr. Long stabbed the flag hard with one hand on the ground, and the hardwood pole penetrated three inches into the ground.
"Come here three people who are good at Qinggong and are brave enough to climb over the wall and fight with me. Let them know how we fight hand-to-hand..."
"Count me in!" Three young men jumped out from the crowd, followed Master Long's steps and climbed over the wall, heading straight for the enemy's head.
Master Long was holding the revolver gifted by Lincoln, and in an instant the magazine was empty of bullets. The red-eyed Long Ye conjured up two sharp daggers with his hands and headed straight for the enemy's vital points.
These dead soldiers never expected that the trapped beast would dare to counterattack, and the four of them were caught off guard and killed one person. In the narrow courtyard, four counterattack masters reaped the lives of their enemies like a gust of wind. In just one charge, more than a dozen knights were killed by their swords.
"Don't be too lazy to fight. Take advantage and retreat!" Lord Long whistled, followed by three guards, who climbed over the wall and withdrew.
This counterattack was carried out like a flowing cloud, and it lasted only three minutes, but the results achieved were no less than a volley of muskets. By the time Mr. Long returned to Can Qi, he had been reduced to a bloody gourd.
Master Long grabbed the battle flag and gave Xiao Letian a military salute, "Thank you for living up to your fate!" Xiao Letian's eyes were full of little stars, and he hit Master Long on the chest hard, "Well done, you really live up to the word dragon." , now I ask you to go out and kill again, do you still dare?"
"Hahaha, what are you afraid of? Wherever you point your finger, I can die!"
"Well done!" Xiao Letian looked at the battle flag in Master Long's hand and said emotionally, "This is the biggest battle flag during the bloody battle of Naha. I carried it myself. Now I order you to carry it with you." Use this battle flag to seize the enemy's war horses, break out of the siege, and meet my new army..."
"You tell them, I know it is difficult for two hundred to kill two thousand, but when the flag is raised, it means fighting to the death, standing till the end... Let them fight again and win as quickly as possible. I am here. Wait for them..."
Long Ye nodded silently, carrying the largest broken flag, and climbed onto the roof. Only a soft click of tiles was heard, and Long Ye had disappeared into the dark night.
After a while, I heard a burst of noise from the south and the sound of war horses. It seemed that they had captured the war horses. Xiao Letian smiled slightly, turned to Matthew and Mike and said, "I'm sorry for putting you two in danger. As long as we can survive this night, I will take you to travel throughout the Qing Dynasty in person. I will let you meet the five What does an ancient country with a thousand-year civilization look like? Now you are going to fight with me..."
Matthew and Mike looked back at Xiao Letian's women with evil smiles on their faces, and nodded very gentlemanly, "As you wish, sir, I think just for these angelic faces, we gentlemen should also fight!" "
"You bastard, stop thinking so hard, that's my wife!"
"Oh God, you are a false church member. You actually violated the commandments and married many women... Oh, I am so envious of you..." As they spoke, the three of them burst into laughter.
The women in the main house finally knew who their master was and what his business was. However, none of the spies sent by the Manchu Qing Dynasty thought about going there to report.
What kind of majestic and strange man is this? On such a battlefield where the sky is falling and the earth is falling, he can still laugh. That laughter actually makes everyone feel at ease.
Let’s look at the warriors under him. How did he do it and make so many outstanding talents die for him? In this gray empire ruled by the Qing Dynasty, can we see another man like this again? .
All the women have been impressed by the male hormones spurting out of Xiao Letian. From today on, Xiao Letian's harem is unbreakable. He himself doesn't know that he will single-handedly create a paradise on earth that men dream of. Wine pools and meat forests are no longer a dream.
The battle has been going on past midnight, and both the enemy and ourselves have exhausted their last bit of energy. The dead soldiers leading the cavalry are now almost crazy with anxiety. Of the more than 200 cavalrymen, nearly 50 were lost in this conflict, some were captured alive, and some were killed.
However, the battle damage rate was nearly a quarter, but no results were obtained. Xiao Letian's inner house was still unbreakable. The commander had never fought such a battle before, and he could not imagine how those dozens of guards and servants could burst out with such strong fighting enthusiasm.
Every time the cavalry attacked the inner house, they were met with a torrential rain of projectiles. When the volley of muskets ended, they were greeted by an angry crowd and the bright light of swords. Even in the end, the frail scholar Xiao Letian would rush to the front line with a pistol in hand and block the weakest gap in the defense line.
Foreign guns, daggers, grenades, Molotov cocktails...even fists, kicks and teeth bites, all the fighting methods that humans can think of are used here.
Within two hours, Xiao Letian repelled six enemy attacks. Horse and human corpses were strewn all over the ground, but the inner house was still under Xiao Letian's control until the end.
What was even more incredible for the cavalry was yet to come. The cavalry who stayed outside the gate suddenly found that the woods to the south suddenly became quiet, as if something was about to happen.
Not even ten minutes had passed before a dense crowd of figures emerged from the woods to the south and rushed towards the group of cavalry like crazy.
"Folks... rush up and catch these bandits. Each prisoner is rewarded two hundred taels of silver. If you want to make a fortune, it depends on today..." Amidst the greedy shouts, Tietutuo screamed excitedly, leading the group The villagers who were greedy for money rushed forward.
It is difficult for people today to understand the value of two hundred taels during the Tongzhi period. If you were told that two hundred taels could buy four acres of irrigated land or eight acres of dry land, perhaps modern people would be able to make a clear conclusion. Compared.
For ordinary farmers in the late Qing Dynasty, two hundred taels was a fortune that changed their destiny. Although the villagers all received a large sum of money for land acquisition, who cares about the money?
The scene of more than 700 villagers charging together was extremely spectacular. The more than 40 cavalrymen who stayed at the gate were shocked. Before they could organize a counterattack, overwhelming stones were thrown at them.
Stones, torches, crossbows... everything that could be thrown was thrown at them. Some unscrupulous guys even lit tens of thousands of firecrackers and threw them next to the war horses, which shocked the war horses and kept roaring.
No matter how elite the soldiers are, they are afraid of civil commotion. No matter how elite the dozens of soldiers are, they cannot be an opponent of nearly a thousand people. When they see this posture, these unsteady cavalrymen turn around and run away. No one will risk their own lives. joke.
The crazy villagers drove away the cavalry guarding the door. Soon after they rushed into the gate of the mansion, they saw countless frightened cavalry rushing out from the east side door. The besieging enemy instantly collapsed and completely surrendered in the vast sea of People's War.
The poor cavalrymen gathered on the east side of the mansion, but only about 120 brothers were left around them. "Is this a fucking bullshit war? Is this how you guys from the capital command? Do you think the lives of our brothers are nothing?"
In the face of huge casualties, the green battalion cavalry finally broke out. The anger in their hearts could no longer be suppressed and poured out. At this time, the dead soldiers who were commanding them were about to speak when they heard a cold voice coming from behind them.
"Have you got any objections? You can't bear the death of a few people? Is this how you repay the emperor? The Qing Dynasty has been kind to you for two hundred years, so how come you have been raised like a bunch of white-eyed wolves? You all want to destroy the nine tribes?"
