Chapter 101 Night Attack

In the northeast of Huilai County, Chaozhou Prefecture, the Ming army, who were chasing Hu Zhuang and the People's Army and the daytime, were already camping and resting in an open area. The exhausted Ming soldiers almost lay down and fell asleep after dinner. They were so tired.

Compared with the People's Army, which is good at long-distance raids, the Ming army has very little training for related aspects, and recruiting troops is better. The Guard Army is really bad. In order to prevent the Ming army from chasing and losing it, Hu Zhuang and the People's Army even consciously reduced the speed of the march.

In order to prevent being attacked by the People's Army at night, the Ming army, who were camping and resting, also sent personnel to guard the camp around the camp. However, because they were too tired to hurry up, many Ming soldiers in charge of guarding could fall asleep even when they leaned against each other. In order to drive away their sleepiness, many Ming soldiers in charge of guarding watched around and chatted quietly.

"Damn, these chaotic people are so capable of running away."

"I walked all day during the day, and my legs were trembling so tired."

"It's better for adults. If you have horses, we soldiers can only walk with their own feet, and their feet will be worn out."

"I feel that if I continue chasing like this, I will be exhausted sooner or later."

...

At the beginning, the people's army were chatting with by the Ming soldiers. Not long after, the people chatted with them actually transferred to their superiors.

"Oh, when will this day end? Those ordinary people are afraid of us when they look at us, but what is the difference between us and the tenants under the landlords?"

"Hehe, who told us that we were just ordinary soldiers? The adults treated us as cattle and horses. When chasing the rioters, we chased them with our feet, and the adults were riding horses behind. After our family died, we didn't know how to survive. Brothers fought, killed, wiped out the rioters, and the credit was all due to the adults."

"Lower, these words cannot be heard by adults."

...

From the words of the Ming soldiers, it can be easily seen that the lower-level soldiers hated the officers and generals. The officers and generals lived a luxurious life, while the lower-level soldiers could only barely have enough to eat.

Of course, the officers and generals constantly exploit the soldiers at the bottom, but the officers and generals dare not rebel like those landlords who cannot survive. They are just rioters with little power. If the military army revolts, the problem will be great, and they will definitely not be able to squeeze the soldiers and their families out of their fill.

For the soldiers, just having enough food is not enough. They are soldiers, not tenants. If they really don’t have enough food, the soldiers really dare to rebel.

However, now the soldiers can have a full meal. They can only remember the exploitation, exploitation and enslavement from the officers and generals, and they can only curse in their hearts and dare not rebel. The soldiers know the strength of the court better than ordinary people.

It was soon late at night, and the entire Ming army camp became quiet. If the Ming soldiers in charge of the guard were sleepless, they would sit and lie down and sleep. Only a few Ming soldiers were left to force their eyes to observe the movements around them. If an enemy attacked, they would be able to discover them as soon as possible and warn them to their colleagues in the army camp.

"Quick! Quick!"

Accompanied by several small-sounding commands, Hu Zhuang and the People's Army touched the woods behind the right rear of the Ming army camp under the cover of night.

"The enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy stands and we disturb us, the enemy is tired, and we attack, the enemy retreats and we chase."

The essence of guerrilla warfare was kept in mind by Hu Zhuang, and it was often used on this Ming army that was pursuing Hu Zhuang's People's Army.

More than 2,500 Ming army pursued Hu Zhuang, a People's Army with a force of 1,000 troops. With a company of firearms, Hu Zhuang was able to attack the Ming army head-on, but Hu Zhuang did not do so. The gap in force was large and it was easy to have accidents. Hu Zhuang chose to retreat to attract the Ming army to pursue it.

When the Ming army divided its troops to pursue Hu Zhuang and the People's Army, Hu Zhuang found an opportunity to concentrate his forces to attack the Ming army and easily eliminate more than 400 Ming troops. Before the other two Ming troops arrived, he led his troops to retreat. The number of casualties in the People's Army itself was less than ten.

The Ming army was defeated all the way, and the Ming army no longer divided the troops. Hu Zhuang chose to take the Ming army around. The Ming army was exhausted both physically and mentally, and turned around and wanted to sneak attack the Ming army.

The generals of this Ming army also knew that they might be attacked by the enemy. After setting up a camp, they sent many Ming soldiers to patrol and guard. As long as they discovered the People's Army before the enemy attacked the camp, they gave the Ming army some time to prepare, they would not be afraid of the People's Army coming to attack the camp.

However, the People's Army's attack camp was not what the Ming generals thought.

Hu Zhuang entered the Shulin all the way, and then kept approaching the Ming army camp. After walking out of the Shulin, the People's Army was more than 100 meters away from the edge of the Ming army camp. The Ming army was also worried that the People's Army would attack the camp from the Shulin, so when stationed, it would be separated from the Shulin and arranged many people to guard the area.

"Getty-headed spear is ready!" Hu Zhuang's order was quickly conveyed by the messenger to all the firearm soldiers.

After receiving the order, the soldiers of the firearms unit touched the black and loaded the tiger head gun. Soon, the ammunition was loaded and all the tiger head guns were pointed at the Ming army camp.

"Open fire!"

In an instant, accompanied by fire and roar, more than 120 tiger-headed spears shot people-eating lead bullets at the Ming army camp.

At the moment when the tiger-headed gun fired, other People's Army soldiers shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Before the sound came, the lead bomb arrived first. Many Ming soldiers in the barracks who were sleeping were hit by the lead bombs. Some were awakened by the pain and kept wailing. Some opened their eyes and could not say a word. Blood kept flowing out of their bodies, not far from death.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

In the dark night, more than 120 lead bombs were shot from a distance of 100 meters, and there were actually not many casualties and injuries to the Ming army. It is expected that no more than 30 people were shot. However, it is because it is dark now that the sudden attack caused chaos in the entire Ming army camp.

"Where are the enemies?"

"I'm injured, save me!"

"Don't be messed up! Don't be messed up!"

...

In the dark night, the tired Ming soldiers and the enemies who were not sure where they were, Ming soldiers kept hitting and falling. The Ming army officers and generals were unable to restore the chaotic military camp to calm down, which eventually led to a phenomenon - bombing the camp!

"Run! The enemy is here!"

"Don't be confused! Don't be confused! Everyone stands in place, and those who violate the situation will be killed without mercy!"

puff!

The Ming army officer who remained calm directly lifted his sword and killed several Ming soldiers who caused chaos in the military camp, hoping to calm the other soldiers down.

However, for the Ming army camp, which was completely chaotic, killing was useless, and chaos could no longer be stopped. There were even Ming soldiers fighting with swords. In the darkness, they could no longer tell who was the enemy and who was the colleague.

In the darkness, the shooting frequency of tiger-headed guns dropped greatly, and the soldiers of the Cold Weapons were still shouting loudly, but no one rushed to the chaotic Ming army camp.
