The motorcade on the official road suddenly stopped while walking.
Liang Dayi, who was hiding on the hillside, frowned.
The sudden stop of the Tiger Flag convoy made him feel something was wrong.
Liang Er, who was standing next to him, also noticed it and whispered: "Brother, could it be that the people from the Tiger Flag have discovered our people? Do you want our people to take action now?"
"No hurry, wait a little longer." Liang Da stopped Liang Er who was about to make a move.
There was still a trace of luck in their hearts that they were not discovered by the Tiger Flag people, hoping that the Tiger Flag convoy would get closer.
For a long time, Liang Er stared at the official road at the foot of the mountain with wide eyes, and said: "Brother, look, what does the Tiger Flag's convoy want to do? It couldn't be that they found us and wanted to turn around and run away!"
At this time, all the carts of the tiger-character flag convoy on the official road stood sideways, and the horses and drivers pulling the carts were protected in the middle.
Liang Da took one look and knew that they had been discovered, so he said: "Let's do it. The people in the Tiger Flag already know that we are ambushing in the mountain."
With the movements of the Tiger Flag convoy, it was not difficult to guess that they had been discovered.
Liang Er, who had long been impatient, shouted to a bandit standing nearby: "Bing the gong!"
Boom! Boom! Boom...
There was a rapid sound of a gong, and a group of people suddenly stood up on the hillside, and a large black flag waved on the hillside.
At the same time, a cry of killing came from both sides of the hillside, and hundreds of bandits rushed down the hillside.
"alert!"
Wang Yuncheng, deputy captain of the First Brigade, gave the order.
The spearmen stood at the front of the cart, and the gunmen stood in front of the spearmen.
Among the three squadrons of the First Battalion, two squadrons are gun squadrons, and only one squadron is a spear squadron.
One of the two squadrons of firecrackers stood in three rows facing the bandits rushing over from the mountain. Each squadron of firecrackers was in its own row. The firecrackers held up their firecrackers and pointed them at the bandits on the hillside.
The remaining fire gun squadron, led by the leader of the fire gun squadron, went to the rear of the convoy to guard against the bandits from outflanking them from behind.
As the bandits rushing over the mountain got closer and closer, the captain of the firecrackers squadron in front of the convoy shouted: "Get closer to the bandits sixty steps, shoot in three sections, and let each firecracker squad leader give his own orders."
The leader of the front row of the Fire Gun Team was in the middle of the team, silently calculating the distance between the bandits and the Fire Gun Team.
When there were less than sixty steps left on both sides, he heard him shout: "First team, let go!"
The command flag in his hand waved down.
boom! boom! boom……
More than thirty gunpowders were fired almost at the same time, and a puff of smoke from burned gunpowder floated up, mixed with the pungent smell of gunpowder.
After firing the guns, all the gunmen squatted down and began to clean the medicine pool and reload the gunpowder and lead shot.
The second team of the second row of fire guns was also ready. The captain of the second team of fire guns waved his flag and shouted: "Let go!"
boom! boom! boom……
A row of fire cannons were fired, and the sound of the cannons filled everyone's ears.
After the second row of firecrackers squatted down to clean the medicine pool and reload it, the third firecrackers team standing in the third row also fired the firecrackers under the order of their team leader.
Three rows form a round. After firing one round of firecrackers, the first team of firecrackers that finished firing has finished loading and started shooting the second firecrackers.
The biggest advantage of three-stage shooting is that it can ensure uninterrupted firepower output of the firecracker and cause maximum damage to the enemy.
It's a pity that Ming Dynasty had advanced skills, but due to the quality problems of the gun and the lack of training of the soldiers, he was obviously the grandfather, but he was beaten into a grandson.
The lead shot released by the fire gun is like the sickle of death, harvesting the lives of bandits.
Every bandit who wanted to get close to the convoy was killed or wounded by firecrackers before he could get close.
From the beginning to the end, the bandits rushing over from the hillside could not get within forty steps of the convoy.
The road down the hillside is not very wide. More than a hundred bandits are crowded on one road. The number of bandits who face the gunman each time is limited, but every time the gunman is fired, more than ten bandits can be killed.
The sound of firecrackers rang out several times. The first few rows of bandits had no one left standing, and there were dozens of corpses on the ground.
The sixty to forty steps in front of the convoy became an insurmountable chasm for the bandits.
"Damn it, how could this happen!" Huang Laizi clenched his hands tightly into fists, and veins popped out on his forehead.
From the previous two battles, he already knew that Tiger Flag's fire cannons were powerful, but he didn't expect them to be so powerful. Compared with the previous two times, this time there has been an earth-shaking change.
Of course, you can't blame him.
The previous two times, the fire gun teams he encountered were all fire gun teams. They were small in number and could not shoot in a row, let alone perform three-stage shooting.
Now they were facing a squadron of more than a hundred firecrackers, and they could already implement line tactics, which made up for the lack of accuracy and firepower to the greatest extent.
Master Pan said in a lonely tone: "Withdraw. If this continues, there won't be enough people to kill the Tiger Flag."
However, before his order was passed, the bandits on the official road broke up and fled.
The bandits who fled scattered in all directions, some fled in the direction they came in, some bandits simply jumped into the ditch on the right side, and some bandits fled up the hillside. In short, no bandits were willing to face the black hole of the gun.
On the hillside, the Erliang Mountain bandits who were originally waving flags and shouting now became quiet.
Seeing that many bandits were beaten to death by the firecrackers of the Tiger Flag without even touching the side of the convoy, this caused a big impact on the bandits from Erliang Mountain on the hillside.
"Why, how could this happen!" Liang Da opened his mouth in shock, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
It was completely different from what he imagined.
Liang Er came up and said anxiously: "Brother, retreat. This group of Tiger Flag people are too fierce. It is better to retreat to the mountains quickly while we in Erliang Mountain have not suffered any losses."
"Yes, retreat, retreat to the stronghold immediately." Liang Da recovered from the shock before his eyes and hurriedly ordered.
The bandits in Erliang Mountain began to retreat up the mountain, and the banner in Erliang Mountain also moved.
On the official road.
Wang Yuncheng retreated to Liu Heng and said, "Master, the bandits on the hillside are trying to escape."
"I want to escape! It's not that easy." Liu Heng said coldly, "Ask Zheng Chao if the Crouching Tiger Cannon can hit the hillside in front. If it can be hit, please help me with the four Crouching Tiger Cannons on the hillside. beat."
"Yes!" Wang Yuncheng went to find Zheng Chao in the motorcade.
Zheng Chao and Hu Guangyi were always guarding the cart.
Seeing Wang Yuncheng walking over in a hurry, Zheng Chao came up to meet him and asked: "Captain Wang, does the boss have any orders?"
Wang Yuncheng raised his finger and pointed at the bandits on the hillside and said, "The boss asked me to ask you whether the Crouching Tiger Cannon can hit the bandits on the hillside."
