1542 Sudden Engagement
"Let's cross the ditch over there." The death squad officer of the Chu Army said in a low voice.
"When crossing, keep your voice as low as possible. Let's not disturb the people of Qi." The death squad officer said.
The rest of the soldiers didn't answer, just nodded.
On the other side of the Qi defense line.
"Is everyone here?" The Qi Army officer asked a Qi Army lieutenant wearily.The officer was equally exhausted.
"All the people I can find are here." The lieutenant officer squatted on the ground and looked at the Qi army officer and said.
The military rank marks of Qi army officers are no longer there.So there is no way to know how high the opponent's military rank is, but what is certain is that there is no general of the Qi army here.Because the noble generals had already run away with their own people.
"That's all?" the Qi army officer asked suspiciously.
"Yes. That's all." The lieutenant nodded.
"It's all...." The Qi army officer couldn't describe it.What he saw was that some old people were holding bronze swords with curling blades.Standing among them, a small group of people were still children, but they didn't even have muskets.Most of them had injuries on their bodies. Although they were slightly injured and able to fight, it was quite good to be able to maintain such fighting power.He understands the situation better than anyone else.At this time, these people were the only fighters in the city of Linzi in Qi State.
"It's them." The lieutenant stood up and said to the Qijun officer.
"These people are the ones I can recruit as much as possible. The rest of the places simply cannot be recruited." The lieutenant said.
"Huh." The Qi army officer looked at those people in embarrassment.Many of them are civilians.Soldiers are rarely seen anymore.
"Okay, that's it, you come with me." Qi Jun officer said.
"Where are we going? Rest?" the lieutenant asked excitedly.Since the start of the war, their people have rarely rested, and many of them have been fighting continuously for a long time.There was a lot of loss of personnel.There are very few supplements.Every day someone is sacrificed and every day someone is missing.Not only that, many people ahi lack of food.Many people wish they could be stopped and take a break.The lieutenant was naturally happy to hear the officer's question.Immediately stepped forward excitedly, he thought that his troops should take a good rest.
But the officers of the Qi army did not tell him what was going to happen next, nor did they say what kind of mission they were performing.
"First team, go up." The Chu army death squad officer ordered in a low voice.
Taking advantage of the night.The death squad of the Chu army quickly crawled towards the trench.They crawl slowly to avoid each other's shots by crawling.
"Shusha." The death squad of the Chu Army kept rubbing against the ground and making a rustling sound.Such a slight sound did not attract the attention of the Qi people.Because the Qi people just deployed their troops in this direction, most of them deployed to other directions to protect their leaders and retreat.But such a wrong transfer just gave the other party a chance to infiltrate.
"Keep your voice down, don't make any noise," said the Chu army death squad officer.
"Pay attention to the Qi people." The death squad officer said.Then continue to climb along the trench.
On the other side of the ruins, the defense force of the Qi people is already very weak.
"Tell me, will people from the state of Chu touch it?" A young man from the state of Qi asked with a dagger in his hand at this time.The Qi people are supplemented by civilians, but they don't have so many weapons.They are not just lacking in various supplies.Not even a musket can be handed one by one.Most of them still lack weapons, and the Qi people use such weapons to fight.
"I don't know." An old Qi man curled up and lay in a big pit, with a blanket wrapped tightly around his body.This blanket was found from a Qi soldier who died in battle, and it was the only thing that could keep warm.This is a battlefield, no open fire is allowed.
"Look carefully, I'm going to sleep for a while." The old Qi people said at this time.
"But, the officer above, tell us not to sleep, watch carefully, and shoot if there is any situation." The boy said.He looked at the musket held by the old man.
Of the two, only the old one had a rifle, and he longed for a musket.But only the opponent has the musket.He didn't, he was young.Moreover, the Qi army has very few muskets.Not everyone has a musket.This situation made him feel very anxious.
"If you say you are stupid, you are stupid. Those officials have already left." The old Qi people said.
"Who can control us? Those people from the state of Chu touched it. During the day, we didn't even dare to come up. It's night. Night. Do they have the guts?" the old Qi people said in a loud voice.
"Chu people are all rats. Rats." The old Qi man said angrily.
"It's easy to kill them." The old Qi people said to the boy.Then tighten the blanket.Then fell asleep.
But the boy couldn't fall asleep for a long time because of the cold.And hunger.These are the reasons why he couldn't fall asleep for a long time.Sticking to their duties, they don't feel that way yet.
After all, Qi people are just civilians, they are just a group of civilians with guns.Some weapons are simply too crude.Such a situation counters the attack of an army.The situation can be imagined.
"Your Majesty. Your Majesty." The doctor came anxiously to the basement where King Qi was.
"What's it called? I'm not ready yet." King Qi said impatiently.
"Your Majesty." The doctor actually came to salute respectfully.
"My lord. As soon as possible. As soon as possible. The night will not be too long, we should hurry up." Doctor Shang urged anxiously.
"What's the rush? I haven't found some things yet." King Qi said calmly.
"Doctor Shang, come and look for me too." King Qi shouted loudly.
The doctor shook his head helplessly.
"Head. What should we do next?" A soldier of the Chu Army Death Squad crawled over and asked in a low voice.
"Go ahead and have a look. See if there are people from Qi." The officer of the death squad of the Chu army ordered.
"Okay. Head." The veteran rolled away.
"Don't move. Climb here." The officer ordered.
At this time, the death squads of the Chu Army were patiently waiting for the next order of action.In fact, many people are anxiously waiting.They have already entered the area actually controlled by the Qi people. If they meet the Qi people in this area, they will be finished.
"Huh la la." The veteran of the death squad of the Chu army quickly stepped forward, saw a ruin, and then hid.
The veteran saw something dark shaking in the front position.He thought it was a human being, so he hid himself.Then climb over very carefully.
"What are we doing here?" A Qi man asked another person in the dark.
"I don't know. Go to sleep for a while. I haven't had a good sleep for several days." In the dark.Another Qi people replied.
"Our team has a small number of 200 people. I really don't know what to do?" One of them continued.
"It's better than dying on the front line. Here, I can get a good night's sleep. It's not bad, I gave a vegetable cake." Another person said.
"Well. Sleep. Don't want to." One of them said.Hearing this, the veteran of the death squad of the Chu army broke out in a cold sweat.They happened to meet people from the state of Qi.This greatly exceeded his expectations.I didn't expect to run into each other at such a close distance.
The veteran of the Chu army hurried back at this time.
"What's the situation?" the Chu army death squad officer asked anxiously.
"Hoo hoo." The veteran of the Chu Army gasped heavily. To be honest, his back was soaked.
"Qi people, I found hundreds of Qi people gathered behind the ruins over there. They don't know what they want to do. But they are indeed an irresistible force." The Chu army veteran said at this time.
"Hundreds of people?" The Chu army death squad officer asked in surprise.
"You read that right, right?" said the Chu army death squad officer.
"En. There should be nothing wrong. I heard what they said in person. They seemed to be waiting for some order. They all stopped behind the ruins over there." At this time, the veteran of the Chu Army pointed to the location with his finger and said.
