Chapter 291 Cleanup Action II
The same is true for Mu Jingnan in Hexi Town, except that he only has a manpower like the Fourth Regiment here, and with a new recruit regiment, he had no choice but to leave one Qu to defend and set off with two Qu and the new recruit regiment.
Of course, the battle mainly depends on the Fourth Regiment, but Liu Ximing gave a special order to bring the new recruits with a long experience, so as not to turn back and encounter a big battle without any rules.
However, with his past training and excellent equipment, Mu Jing couldn't believe that it would be no big problem to deal with a group of bandits in Yuanbao Mountain.
Unfortunately, my second brother was not here, otherwise I would not have to bring these two fire crow cannons. Mu Jing looked at the two two-inch cannons that were loading the ship and sighed.
The night became darker, and the main road leading to Mianzhou from northwest of Shunqing Prefecture was brightly lit at this time.
Wang Qiang, the leader from Qingfeng Village of Lingxiu Mountain, brought Jinzishan, Guanmushan and several other bandits from the village, and nearly a thousand people completely blocked Muma Ridge.
According to the saying that such bandits should have sent troops to suppress such a bandit.
Who knew that six days had passed and there was still no movement in the city. The past business travelers had to return to Yanting County, Tongchuan Prefecture.
Yu Yongkai received the order to wipe out all the bandits.
The straight line distance from Liujia Village to Mumaling is 70 miles. If you force yourself to march, you may not be able to arrive in one day.
In order to save the soldiers' physical strength, Yu Yongkai led his team of officers to carefully study the map drawn by Longxiang Camp himself.
Finally, it was decided that the Liujia Village fleet would directly transport the troops to Xiaoheba 10 miles upstream of Shunqing Prefecture, and then head to Mumaling from here.
In this way, the distance is directly shortened to 30 miles, which is not a big deal for troops like Longxiang Camp, which are used to training from a distance.
Fortunately it was summer, and the moon was bright in the sky at night. At around midnight, Yu Yongkai led the Third Regiment and the guards to the hills southeast of Muma Ridge.
Looking down from this place, you can also see the bonfire that Qingfengzhai camped at the foot of Mumaling Mountain.
"Cao, these local thieves really didn't think they were bandits, and they dared to blatantly block the road on the official road."
Li Jingsi observed the telescope for a while from a distance, and was a little frustrated when he saw this scene.
Zheng Jingcai chuckled and put down the telescope in his hand, "I think these cowards don't know how to write the word "death". It seems that the ones on the night side only arranged those, and this battle doesn't seem to be difficult."
"Send scouts to the town and touch them."
Yu Yongkai was not influenced by the dialogue between them, and still conducted reconnaissance according to the Longxiang Camp combat manual.
After a while, several scouts came back to report and marked the secret whistles one by one on the temporary map.
Yu Yongkai found a valley, took out a fire note and arranged it on the map.
"The first song of the third regiment is responsible for attacking from the east ravine, and the second song is from the south..."
In a quarter of an hour, the mountain where Longxiang Camp is located is surging, and figures are scattered.
He quietly touched the underside of the ridge along the forest.
These local thieves were not useless. At least they built a circle of simple wooden fences around the official road. A group of people lay in a daze and slept on the grass without even a tent.
The rushing team of Longxiong Camp quickly touched the edge of the simple camp, where the swaying fires in the camp could not penetrate the darkness.
Seeing that the bandits who were arranged behind the fence were so sank that their heads were sank and seemed to be dozing off, the people from the scouts twisted against the ground and leaned over.
With a "click", the sentry leaning against the fence was broken before he could make a sound.
With the addition of martial arts instructors such as Wang Hong, the melee combat ability of Longxiang Camp has increased sharply.
After being promoted to Chengtun chief instructor, Wang Hong and the other three were even more enthusiastic and took the initiative to prepare a set of close-fitting fighting techniques for those who were scouts, so that today they can have such a great effect.
Seeing that he had just touched the camp so easily, Yu Yongkai, who was behind, couldn't help but twitch twice. This fucking hit was too boring.
"kill"
"Bang", "Bang"
Liu Ximing had already made it clear in his order that the purpose of this battle was to use bloody means to cut off all the evil hands sent by these big players.
Therefore, Yu Yongkai did not intend to keep a living mouth from the beginning. The Third Regiment and other troops who had quietly touched in to knock down the detective and began to shoot directly.
"There are officers and soldiers!" The people from Qingfeng Village suddenly woke up from their sleep. When they heard gunfire and heart-wrenching crying, the camp was in chaos.
The leader of Qingfeng Village, Wang Qiang, cleverly turned over and woke up. Seeing the firelight everywhere, he was so scared that he immediately wanted to gather the team.
Zheng Jingcai stayed with the team, and with him personally commanded it, no one wanted to gather, and the third regiment followed his guidance and shot in a mess.
"Forward", seeing that the enemy on the periphery had been almost cleared, Zheng Jingcai waved his hand and the third regiment shouted a slogan and began to advance inside.
At this time, the personal guard group also began to surround from other directions. The number of people in Qingfeng Village was 700 dead, and only more than 400 people were left were compressed in the center of the camp.
"Stop beating, let's surrender." Wang Qiang looked snot and tears. These people who suddenly appeared were too cruel. They didn't have the power to fight back. They were extremely vicious when they started, and they were so scared that he immediately knelt down.
"Let the new recruits go up," Yu Yongkai was silent when he heard the shouts in the camp, and walked out of the hidden woods while giving instructions.
The new recruits followed the rear of the Third Regiment. When they entered the bandit camp, they saw the dead and injured people all over the place. Many half-year-old boys vomited out directly.
Yu Yongkai's indifferent eyes swept over the new recruits who had gathered together, "In this world, if you don't kill evil people, the evil people will kill you. You are all selected from refugees. I won't say much nonsense, lift the gun and load the bullets."
Hundreds of new recruits are forced
I was disgusted and started to load up tremblingly.
"Aim, shoot."
Wang Qiang and others were watching the people in Longxiong Camp terrified to surround themselves with firearms when they suddenly heard such a command.
"Give me your life, your best, your best."
Before the remaining hundreds of bandits had finished begging for mercy, the trembling new recruits opened fire.
Four hundred firearms took turns shooting, and immediately killed countless people in the middle of the camp.
"I'm fighting with you." Some bandits finally found something wrong. They wanted to rush up to fight for their lives with red eyes, but were shot dead by the soldiers of the Third Regiment and the guards who were calm and calm.
"Reload"
"shooting"
Yu Yongkai's cold voice kept ringing in the camp, and the voices of the Qingfeng Village people gradually lowered, and finally there was no sound.
Taking a deep breath of the bloody air, Yu Yongkai kicked a young man who cried in tears in front of the recruits.
"Have you ever attended ideological and political courses? These are bandits who collude with those evil gentry and big marrow-sucking households. If they don't die, we ordinary people will have to die. There is an egg that makes you cry."
"The veterans and the new recruits each left one to clear the battlefield, and the others, the entire army had it, gathered the team and advanced towards Lingxiu Mountain."
"Brother Kai is getting better and better," Li Jingsi stayed next to the third regiment and sighed when he saw this scene.
Zheng Jingcai smiled and said, "I don't care about this. Anyway, my second brother said they should die, so he should die. Let's go."
Lingxiu Mountain is not far from Muma Ridge, and Longxiong Camp is rushing at a normal speed and finally arrives before dawn.
I don’t know what guarantee the big family in the city gave Wang Qiang, but this iron naive man actually took most of the bandits in the village to fight, leaving only fifty or sixty garrisons.
Taking advantage of this moment when people were trapped and horses were exhausted, Longxiong Camp defeated Lingxiu Mountain without any effort.
However, more than 400 women and children who were captured in the village asked Zheng Jingcai and others to "kill them?" Zheng Jingcai looked at Yu Yongkai unnaturally.
"Go to your mother, what are you thinking?" Yu Yongkai slapped Zheng Jingcai on the forehead.
"The second brother only talked about suppressing bandits, but he didn't say that he wanted to kill all the women and children. We are officials, but not bandits. You all remember them."
"yes"
Yu Yongkai's words cheered up the already a little depressed new recruits.
"Send someone to distinguish. If someone wants to leave by himself, give them some dry food to leave by themselves, and take those who don't want to leave back to the village."
"How far is the remaining few combat targets?"
After dealing with the prisoner's affairs, Yu Yongkai asked the orderly soldiers to hand over the map.
"Jinzi Mountain and Guanmu Mountain are not far away. Should we let everyone rest and leave?" Zheng Jingcai looked at the tired Longxiang Camp and suggested with some distress.
