Chapter 420: 420 is discounted in half for a hundred years old

 Chapter 420 420 A hundred years old with half the price

“How many of you are left?” Cao Fei walked to the front of the team again and asked the little boy in front of him.

The boy who led the way was called Liu Zhu, and his nickname was naturally Zhuzi. It was a tacky and common Zhengguo name that could be found everywhere.

The boy opened a leaf, pinched the neck of a small snake skillfully, threw it aside, and said without looking back: "My father and several uncles were killed by the Mirage people, and the remaining few... All my uncles and brothers have gone to the mountains...I heard from grandpa that some incense must be left behind."

“We are here, so you don’t have to hide in the mountains.”

"There are only a few of you. There are so many mirage soldiers... Our Zheng army was beaten and fled everywhere..." The boy still didn't believe what Cao Fei said, and retorted with great disdain.

Cao Fei didn't say much, just smiled and followed the boy.

"To be honest, I came out with you this time and had no intention of going back! I want to avenge my father..." The child pushed away the grass in front of him stubbornly, then looked back at Cao Fei: "How about it? Can you? let me…"

"No! Why do children like you fight? In the future, you have to go to school, learn to write, learn to do arithmetic, learn to shoot, learn to fight, and learn science... There are so many things to learn." Cao Fei rubbed it with his hands He rubbed Liu Zhu's hair and smiled peacefully.

 He has seen a lot of scenery, and it is a beautiful scenery that he has never seen in Zheng Guo.

 In Bunas, he saw the streets under neon lights, the glass windows filled with candies, the buildings taller than mountains, and the beautiful women that made people drool.

 He ​​once saw a 280mm heavy artillery roaring during a drill, leveling a mound with one shot. The huge explosion made the ground tremble. From that moment on, he felt that he had nothing to fear.

The giant ship he rode along the way was all made of steel, and was several times bigger than the largest sailing ship he had ever seen in his life! Standing on the side of the ship and looking at the sea, he could even reach out and touch the wings of seagulls!

Liu Zhu didn’t know, but he knew that there were too many things in this world that were worth seeing and worth waiting for.

 So, while rubbing Liu Zhu's head, he continued: "We are here, and you will not be bullied anymore..."

"Tch..." Liu Zhu, who didn't believe Cao Fei's words at all, continued to walk forward. For him, these promises were worthless.

Rather than comforting him like this, it would be better to hand him a Cyric flintlock gun, load a bullet for him, and then let him go and fight with those dwarf goblins.

"The roadbed is ahead! Go south and you will find Fengshun City. To the north... you will find those Mirage soldiers." Liu Zhu, who had been hiding not far away after fighting all morning, naturally knew the specific location of those Mirage soldiers. .

Cao Fei pushed aside the bushes in front of him, and sure enough he saw some scrawled roadbed. He carefully climbed to the roadside, looked at both sides, and made a gesture behind him.

The chasseur in camouflage carried his weapon and bent down, crossed the road as fast as possible, and disappeared on the other side of the road in less than a few seconds.

"Please, give me a gun, I want revenge..." Liu Zhu continued to plead, because this may be his only chance for revenge.

"I promised your grandpa that I will bring you back safely! Just follow me! I promise to help you kill a few more Mirage people. How about that?" Cao Fei was not willing to let his child go to the battlefield. The guide discussed.

As he spoke, most of the soldiers from 1st Platoon had already crossed the road. The shooter carrying the heavy machine gun and the deputy shooter holding the tripod crossed the road one after another.

Liu Zhu was a little confused. It was obvious that he had never seen troops fighting like this. He thought that these people would come around, form a formation along the road, and then rush towards the mirage camp from behind while beating drums.

Who knows, these so-called soldiers look like a group of cowards - they just try their best to hide in the woods, just like them civilians.

Liu Zhu was very disappointed when he saw this. He felt that Cao Fei was lying to him. These people were just stragglers who broke up the army. They were not here to fight at all, but to block the road and rob.

 He actually guessed half of it right!

The 2nd Battalion planned to block the road and rob, and annihilate the entire Mirage army in the wild, which was about to be routed back to Fengshun City, without sparing any one.

For the 2nd Battalion, this tactic caused the least loss, was the simplest, and had the best effect - as long as these mirage field troops had no way to retreat to Fengshun City, then it would be much easier to capture Fengshun City.

Although they did not carry heavy weapons, if there were only a few defenders left, wouldn't there be no need for heavy firepower to siege the city?

Well, it’s at least logically consistent, isn’t it?

While Liu Zhu was disappointed, the commander of the 2nd Battalion had already ordered the communications soldiers at the battalion headquarters to start shaking the handle to charge the telegraph machine.

With these communication devices that can communicate at any time, the Datang Group's tactical flexibility is naturally much higher than that of its opponents.

 A few minutes later, the 1st Battalion, which was ready and waiting for the 2nd Battalion to be in position, began the general attack that had been prepared for a long time.

It is no exaggeration at all. The firepower assigned to the regiment, plus the artillery left by the 2nd Battalion, and the 1st Battalion's own artillery, dozens of cannons of various models and calibers, instantly poured the shells on the Mirage Army. On the head. Mirage Wu Baisui was stunned... This was the first time he had seen such fierce artillery fire, and for a while he couldn't even speak.

Mirage Wuyuan standing next to him has seen similar artillery fire, so he is calmer than Mirage Wu Baisui, but he is actually not much stronger.

When Mirage Wuyuan regained his composure, succeeded Mirage Baisui, and commanded the troops to regroup, he found that he seemed to have lost control of the army.

The sky full of artillery fire forced his troops to hide in the east. Among the signal troops sent out, not even one came back to report the news.

He wanted to find out what happened to his troops, but when Mirage returned to his soul at the age of 100, he still hadn't found out yet.

In fact, there was no need for him to investigate clearly. Mirage Wu Baisui mobilized a total of 3 legions from Fengshun City, with 4,500 people and 30 artillery pieces...

 In the first and second attacks, about 500 people were lost, and then they stayed put and waited until now.

There are about 4,000 usable soldiers left. After this round of artillery fire, there are only about 3,000 left at most.

However, this only refers to the troops that can still be assembled and found, but it does not mean that these troops can continue to fight. They had all been frightened by the terrifying artillery fire, and had long since lost the will to continue fighting.

Hence, Mirage Baisui, who came back to his senses, immediately made the decision to retreat - the enemy's artillery fire was so fierce, it was better for him to retreat quickly.

As long as we retreat to Fengshun City, there will be tens of thousands of civilians to serve as human shields, and there are two legions guarding the city to replenish our troops, so we can at least try to defend the city. Facing such artillery fire in the wild, he must have no confidence.

Hence, leaving the wounded where they were, Mirage's troops from Fengshun City began to retreat. Mirage Wu did not look back, and handed over the command to Mirage Wuyuan. With dozens of cavalry, he took the lead and rushed towards Fengshun City. It was much faster than when he led the troops out.

On the other side, Liu Zhu listened to the dull sound of cannons in the distance that made him feel a little palpitated, and he was once again confused about the situation.

It’s not that he has never seen battle formations. Zheng Guo’s troops and Mirage’s troops also fought several battles on Dongwan Island, but the battles between those square formations were obviously completely different from the battle in front of him.

Liu Zhu didn’t even know what kind of battle was considered a real battle: Could it be that the **** battlefields he had seen before were all wrong?

Before he could figure out these problems, Cao Fei nudged Liu Zhu lightly with his elbow: "Here you come! You are the one who fired my shot. You can see clearly! The second one from the left!"

 Cao Fei has always been the second one on the left in the hunting unit. This is a tactical arrangement that has been agreed upon long ago.

He leaned his K3 rifle against a horizontal tree root, pointed it at the cavalry running in the distance, pressed his finger lightly on the trigger guard, and then gently placed it on the trigger.

Two seconds later, after adjusting his breathing, Cao Fei pulled the trigger. The K3 rifle jumped back slightly, and a bullet flew out of the barrel.

With a burst of crackling gunshots, one-third of the dozens of knights galloping fell off their horses.

Liu Zhu's eyes widened. He had never seen such a clean and neat way of killing people. While he was in a daze, Cao Fei had already pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded the bullet into the chamber again.

 “Thud, tug, tug!” The Maxim heavy machine gun opened fire, the war horses neighed and slowed down, and the goblins on horseback suddenly fell over.

Before these goblins could figure out what was going on, they were beaten into pieces by the bullets flying in their direction.

Mirage Wu Baisui grabbed the reins, and the soldiers guarding him were shot and fell one after another. Even with his eyes widened, he couldn't see clearly where the bullets were coming from.

Even if they are surrounded and blocked, shouldn't they be lined up on the road to block them? He subconsciously followed the tactics he was familiar with to guess what the Datang Group troops were thinking.

He didn't think about it carefully. Didn't the 1st Battalion, which blocked his advance, put their defense line in the middle of the road?

Unfortunately, before he could figure it all out, he saw a sudden cold flash of light on the mountainside a hundred meters away.

 A bullet flew towards the face and hit Mirage's hundred-year-old eyebrow. He leaned back, and before he could let go of the hand holding the war horse, he pulled on the reins and made the horse neigh and stand up on its front legs.

Mirage Wu Baisui rolled off his horse, and soldiers nearby rushed up to try to help his general. As a result, the soldiers who came forward soon discovered that this mirage was a hundred years old and seemed to be hopeless.

Although his father hoped that he could live to be a hundred years old without any illness or disaster when he named him, it is obviously impossible now - it's a bit far off, more than doubled...

These mirage soldiers had no time to retreat, and were quickly knocked down by the bullets that swept over them. They screamed and followed their hundred-year-old master.
